The River Road, downtown, and fascinating homes and buildings are just three admirable characteristics of Alton. However, uptown can not be left out, considering that it is the center of our activities. WHY? AHS! a nee — PARI Y + Ae AAA a eVaVaVave PTI Vv ia .

Even though parents may be uneasy at first, “But mom I'm a Senior. I'll be out of school next year”, often sways the parents thinking a little bit. Actually road trips can serve a good purpose. They allow students to blow off steam, see the world outside of Alton, and these experiences can even help structure future goals. Obviously they are also a lot of fun and full of excitement every minute. Perhaps, for students, the best part of a road trip is that there are no adults. i .

Pitball. The word conjures up visions of Greek Gods with bronze bodies glistening in the sun. Cars with the imprint of student bodies on their hoods. Raw knuckles. Broken fingers. Good, clean fun. Here you may find players from every walk of life. If you're g00d you receive praise and credit. If not, well then, you're a ‘scrub’. It is a tough game, but there is no feeling quite like the one you receive as you flip over a car to retrieve a slam. A good game of pitball, win or lose, is a rewarding experience to veteran players.

After four years of going out every weekend, it is a chal- lenge for most Seniors to. find something new to do on the weekends. Of course a good party is always fun, but most weekends are spent at high school sporting events or weekend get togethers, which can get boring, Sometimes school dances break-up the monotony of weekend activities. A lot of the time, weekend.evenings are spent driving around. You can usually find someone at Hardees, McDonalds, the various spots on the River Road area, or even driving-past you on the road.

Your stomach growls. You check your pockets to see how much money you'll have to mooch off of your friends - ALOT!!! Next comes the big decision - WHERE TO EAT. If you have a car, and can drive (legally), your choices are unlimited (practically). But if your depending on fair weather - meaning anything but floods - and your feet for transportation, your options are restricted to either the new, improved cafeteria or one of the many uptown places to go including Boyd's, Jack in the Box, Kerr's, Hong Kong House, DQ, “the wall” a favorite gathering spot for the young skippers of Alton High, Mr. Donut, Dubbles, Super X Drugstore, Schwegel’s, and the recently opened Hardee's. Then if you were lucky enough to be born before 1973 (and to become a junior senior this year), you can enjoy a fun - filled hour lunch. But for those of you other underclassmen who were NOT born early enough (or maybe just not a junior this year), you get to sit through a beneficial study hall. Of course there's always the problem of having to get back to the pit in time to find a parking space rather quickly without running over one of the pit ball jocks, or having to dash back to class from uptown when the walk seemed ten times colder hotter and longer than when you walked up there. But despite all of the problems our lunches create, things could be worse. We could have a ‘‘closed campus”. Then again things could be better - we could have recess!!

The Alton High School Junior and Senior girls met in their annual Columbus Day Powder Puff Football Game at Public School Stadium to raise money for student dances and activities. The crowd of about 200 students and parents patiently waited to witness one of the few times in the 19 year history of the game, the upperclass coming out on the lower end of the score, 14-12 in overtime. Senior, Carolyn Lenior intercepted a tipped pass and ran five yards for a touchdown. The Juniors scored a few minutes later when Clara Stewart ran eight yards to tie the score and forced overtime period. In the overtime period, Stewart fluttered a touchdown pass to end Christy Bradford, who was standing alone in the endzone. Seconds later, Stewart scored a two-point conversion on a sweep. LaShawna Bailey wasted no time to score on the first play, narrowing the Junior lead to two points. “We're going to be bragging about this and rubbing it in all week-all year,” said Junior quarterback Clara Stewart.

Alton High was the only Illinois school participating in “30 Days of Fitness” among 33 other St. Louis area schools. It was sponsored by the National Council of Youth Leadership and Washington University in St. Louis. The 30 day program was intended to show students leadership while involving fitness, nutrition, chemical-free bodies, and stressing self-esteem. Ten juniors, currently seniors, organized the program. They were Meg Davey, Rhonda Scifers, Tracy Taylor, Felicia Smith, Kris Ealey, Drew Bilsbury, Vince Warlick, Maurice Manley, Eric Dancy, and Scott Snyder. “The program was really designed for everyone,” stated Meg, “We want students, staff members, and even school board members to come up and participate. Special classes were planned in the middle of the week to accomodate the program. Teacher, Mary Bowling said that she’d never seen so much excitement in health and P.E. since the program started. “Competi- tion is only a small part. The real goal is to develop our students into better leaders, she said. Just for fun, teacher-student competitions were planned. There were no requirements for the participants, all they had to do was come. Students taught the after school classes that lasted one hour and included aerobics, gymnastics, body conditioning, volleyball, and physical fitness. Several events took place such as a student-teacher softball game, a walk-run event, a cholesterol-blood pressure check and, of course, a pep rally to start things off. The 30 Days of Fitness ended on the 30th of April with a rally in St. Louis at Union Station which featured demonstrations by all the schools involved. Trophies and awards were presented for outstand- ing programs. PE. classes were then accomodated with a special curriculum for the remainder of the year, seeing as how everyone enjoyed the program.

A few rules everyone had to follow were that, first, the tricycle had to be provided by the team and it had to be 12” trike. The rider had to remain seated at all times and could not push with his her feet. Of course, rough play and demolition-like behavior disqualified a team. We would like to commend the students that participated in this charity event last spring. — ' Fr aT ij Jerry Bemis finds it hard to peddle his trike. = = above: Briana Churchich coming around the home stretch. middle: David Edwards represents Student Senate.

It started out as an informal dance where people showed up in blue jeans and straw hats to show the spirit of Sadie Hawkins. Now it is a formal dance very similar to Homecoming except the girls ask the guys ta. the dance. Last year’s Sadie Hawkins was very well attended. The theme for the dance was “To- night’s the Night.”’ The band was Cheap Date, and it was accompanied by the D.J. Dem Boys. The 1988 Mr. Irresistable was Jason Armstead escorted by Lori Schmoeller.

The Official Uniform for Scoler Bole Team Members is strict and enforced. It consists of one or more of the following: bowling shoes, used and “‘borrowed”’, tie dye, the gaudier the better, ban- dannas, only to worn around the head, Batman shirts (if available), funny pants, but absolutely no black and white. The Official Scoler Bole Theme Songs are “‘We Don’t Need No Education”’ and ‘“‘Take The Scholars Bowling’’. Both chosen because of their close relation- ship to that favorite pastime, the Sport of the Minds. The Varsity Scoler Bole Teme consists of Captain Scott Hicks, Jennifer Sherwood, Paul Git- choff, Steve Norris, Jimmy (Slim) i tS ane. Bowling Lavelle, and Christina Kidwell. The Junior Varsity Scoler Bole Teme is made up of Captain Jason Hart, Buffy Osborne, Wayne Weber, Ann Monta- gue, and Allison Harper. The Freshmen Scoler Bole Teme consists of Captain Andrea Ursprung, Derek Roach, Kris- tin Priece, Dana Hansen, Catherine Wood, and Seth Phillips. Mrs. Barb Mondy is the coach sponsor, along with help from husband Marv. This year the highlight of the Varsity Scoler Bole Teme’s season was their win on televi- sion over Joppa in Carbon- dale. Sherwood amazed the studio audience with her knowledge of Fine Arts while Steve was forced to wear checked pants with a striped sweater (haute couture?) that belonged to Slim because of the lighting problem caused by the black and white ensem- ble. The J.V. Teme placed fourth at the Junior Varsity In- vitational at St. Elmo Commu- nity High School with Slim earning fourth place for most questions answered. The Freshman Scoler Bole Teme won a second place trophy at the Freshman Invitational which is sponsored annually at Breese Community High School. There Captain Andrea received a sixth place award for individual answers, while Kristin and Derek were also top scorers.

Bagley Cliff Davenport Bev Reid Glen Waters Connie Allen Debra Pitts Ladonna Whitner Donna Hagen Of he Speech and Theatre VJ Department is devoted to the development of two important aspects of education: Skills in communication and an ap- preciation of the enduring art of the theatre. All sophomores are required to take a one semester course in interper- sonal communication. Some of these skills can be developed further in the elective Public Speaking or Discus- sion and Debate courses. Communi- cation through the media is exam- ined in Mass Media, The theatre is the focus of the re- maining elective courses. Theatre appreciation is the goal of two sepa- rate courses called Theatre A and Theatre B. Technical theatre is stud- ied in Stagecraft. Theatre Dance is a practical course in dance and chore- ography for the stage. In addition to offering this varied cur- riculum, the Speech and Thea tre De- partment also sponsors the produc- tion of extra curricular plays and musicals. Each year three fully staged plays are offered to the pub- lic, and each spring the department cooperates with the Music Depart- ment to produce an all-school musi- cal. Although casts are chosen from the student body in open auditions, the Speech and Theatre Department assumes the responsibility for select- ing, directing, and staging the shows. C.

JOHNSON CAREER DEVELOPMENT CENTER A CLOSER LOOK AT Ws LEADERS 2 Donald Lindsey Robert Middleton Ph.D Assistant Principal Principal J.B. Johnson Career Center J.B. Johnson Career Center The tradition of Vocational Education continues at Alton High School and the J. B. Johnson Center in the school year, 1988-1989. Vocational Education continues the tradition of integrating the knowledge and skills learned in the academic areas of science, mathematics, communications, the arts, and social studies. The skills and attitudes learned in these classes are necessary for employment in home economics, trades, and industries. The laboratories and shops provide an environment closely found in the world of employment. Emphasis is placed on student behavior that is necessary to acquire and retain employment. These behavioral qualities include reliability, honesty, and loyalty. Each year one evening in January is set aside for an Open House at the J. B. Johnson Career Development Center to show the facilities and opportunities for young students. A project, Fair and Skills Competition, was started last year and is to be an annual event. The competition is open to all students in grades 7-12, from area schools. Judges are selected from individuals in the community. The project, Fair and Skills, Competition is scheduled for May 11, 1989 at the J. B. Johnson Center. Top right: Dr. Middleton gets involved with the students at the J.B. Johnson Center.

They are forced to rehearse in the excruciating heat from the early morning to the end of the working day. The show they spent all summer practicing could be seen at the Alton High football games and at numerous competitions. On August 12th and 13th, the members volunteered their time to hold the Annual But- ton Day. Besides raising money for various trips, this year’s Button Day also featured Alex Kanturek playing his tenor sax at Schwegel's while people tossed money into his case. Last year the Marching ‘100' had the honor of performing in the Indianapolis 500 Festival and Parade. Also this year they brought back fourteen trophies from four competitions, in- cluding Grand Champion from the Metro-East Competition in O'Falton, Mlinois.

BAND OF THE YEAR This year Alton High's Symphonic Band was the first band in Winois to be named Bi-State Band of the Year. Judging, based on tapes of performances from the past year, was done by band leaders from SIVE and Washington Univer- sity in St. Louis. David Drillinger, director of the Alton band, says, “This is really something special for the kids.” The Alton Symphonic Band was selected over ten other bands from both Illinois and Missouri. The band performed in a concert on February 3, 1989 in the Merid- ian Ballroom in the University Center of SIUE. Congratulations to the Symphonic Band!!! Lainee D.

Mrs. Conrady states, “The kids are super to work with! They're very responsive.” There are approximately fifty-nine students currently in- volved in Singsations. The group meets every week on Monday nights to practice for their upcoming performances.

SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA For members of the Symphonic Orchestra (who were also members of Scintillating Strings), the 1988-1989 school year was busy from the start. In September the “Strings” rehearsed rigorously after school every Wednesday for their performance at the “Those Who Excel” Banquet in Springfield on the 30th. But that was just the start. The Scintillating Strings performed several other times, for such occa- sions as the ‘Business After Hours at Mercan- tile Bank and at Lockhaven for the Home Feder- al Savings Christmas party. The Symphonic Orchestra had many concerts, also. Their performances started in November. The second performance was a mostly Mozart concert in February that featured three soloists - flutist, Cindy Wyatt; French horn player, Peter Uiffers; and bassoon player, Chris Ulffers. The Symphonic Orchestra's busy year closed with their Awards Concert in May in which Jennifer Sherwood was the Arion Award soloist.

This year, Alton High's Scintillating Strings were giv- en the honor, and on Friday, September 30, 1988, they provided music for the banquet. The “Strings” left Alton High at 3:00 pm to play at the Holiday Inn on Interstate 55. They had an elegant dinner at McDonalds, and then played at the banquet. After the thrilling ride from Springfield, they arrived back in Alton at 10:00 pm.

The play was about a newlywed couple on their honey- moon. They came on board a ship for a cruise and ran into the husbands ex -fiancee. There is a murder which occurs soon after they sail. Then another occurs. Through much investi- gation the murderer murderers were discov- ered.

THE RAINMAKER For the second play of the 1988 89 school year, the Alton High Speech and Theatre Department featured a romantic comedy entitled “The Rainmaker”. This fic- tional play focuses on a family living in the midst of a drought. Along with the problem of dying cattle, the family is certain that the daughter will never marry. Her father and two brothers try to set her up with the local deputy, without success. Suddenly, a fast talking con- man appears and reveals himself as a rainmaker. He guarantees that for $100 he can bring rain within twenty-four hours. The family finally agrees to his proposition, although the requests he makes are some- what peculiar. Meanwhile, the Rainmaker becomes at- tracted to the daughter and convinces her that she is beautiful. As a result, love comes into the picture as well as rain.

After 33 years at Alton High, Mr. Davenport is retiring. ‘ The Rainmaker was the last play he directed here. He also directed the musical Bye, Bye Birdie. He has taught classes in communicating and theatre along with directing plays and musicals throughout the years. Mr. Davenport describes his years here as “rewarding and creative.” They “have been a chance for me to deal with some talented and creative students and faculty.” Mr. Davenport has greatly improved the Theatre De- partment at Alton High. When he arrived here, the Theatre Department did one performance of the plays, on a Monday night. He has introduced many things at Alton High. Among these are the musical, and the Stagecraft class, which builds the sets for many of the shows here at A.H.S. think | can speak for many people who have come in contact with Mr. Davenport over the years when | say good luck, and we are going to miss you.

The 1988 spring musical was Lerner and Loewe's “My Fair Lady”. The show revolved around a poor flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, in 1912 London, who hires a world-known Speechologist to turn her into “a lady in a flower shop.” There are many times when she feels she can handle little more and is going to give up. But she ends up staying. All through the story she learns the meaning of hard work. There are moments of tri- umph, there are also many funny moments. The show starred Jennifer Murray as Eliza Doolittle, Doug Simpson as Henry Higgins, lan Hardin as Colo- nel Pickering, Mike Vetter as Freddy Eynsford-Hill, and Damon Cates as Alfred P. Doolittle. The singing chorus was made up of Janet Beatty, Tracy Buckner, Terri Corona, Melissa Deewall, Jenni- fer Duncan, Maryann Greenwood, Sharon Miller, Tif- fany Schneider, Jana Washington, Sarah Wills, Wayne Casey, Jay Cates, Kevin Hand, Aaron May- hew, Brian Petree, Jeff Small, John Shelby, Luis Saravia, Paul Wallace, John Wilson.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR Now comes a problem, you need a fine art credit to ie R F A | l {| TY graduate. What do you do? You sign up for an art class, but do you have enough talent? You might stop and say “1 can't even draw a straight line with a ruler.” Any- body can be an artist if they give it a chance. Art is just like anything else in life, you can learn to be an artist. Now you find yourself in the middle of your first project. You seem to get more interested as you go. Then after a little trial and error you create a master- piece. You learn to talk by talking. You learn to write by writing, you learn to play tennis by playing tennis and you learn to draw, sculpt and design the same way. Practice! Practice! Practice! The Art Department sponsors a three day art exhibit in the spring at Alton Square. Many art students and maybe even you can display your art work. The exhibit displays everything from photography to pottery, or any other type of art you specialize in. Art just isn’t a class or a credit but an opportunity to succeed.

REDBIRDS’ COACH RETURNS The season was characterized by hard fought matches, outstanding individual matches, and a steady improvement in the quality of team performance. The late season loss to a strong Belleville East team by a score of 5-4, a win over Marquette by 7-2, and a strong second place at sectionals, finishing above both Granite City and Jerseyville teams that had beaten Alton during the season, give promise for a competitive season in 1989. Seven lettermen will return plus ten ju- nior varsity players.

GREAT TALENT The Alton High girls’ track team may have been short on numbers, but the Redwings have had some performers long on talent this year. Being on the girls’ track team at Alton High is quite a challenge. The first two weeks of practice is conditioning, which is usually the toughest time for beginners. The long practices continue, and soon the meets begin. “We've been putting in an hour- and-a-half, now it's up to two hours (of practice.),” said Ruth Ann Brown at the beginning of the season. “It's so we can get ready for the conference and districts.” In the end, the girls team learned that victories aren't what really matters, but faith in themselves to persistently try to improve.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT The 1988 Sophomore Baseball team, lead by Mr. Bill Brockhouse, had a better sea- son than the past few years. The team had a record of eight wins and twelve losses. The record may not show much improvement, but the boys maintained a winning attitude. One of the season’s highlights included an outstanding win over Belleville East 6-4, whom they had lost to previously. It was a great come- back! Good luck next year. Ron Hornsey.

Mr. Joe Hook, our new assistant coach, helped us a great deal throughout the season, even though he started coaching after we had played our first couple of games. The team would like to extend their thanks to Coaches Kelly and Hook for their patience, time, and help. It was greatly appreciated. The 1986-’87 softball team consisted of three seniors: Jenny Masters was the only fourth year player and played second and third base; Jennifer Haycraft, who played first and third base; and Donna Burger, who played right field and catcher. The two juniors were Laura Whyte, a pitcher, and Kelly Britt, who played in the out- field. The eight sophomores were: Jenni- fer Bonnell, who played second base; Shannon McFarlane, who played center field; Nancy Korte, who played left field; Jennifer Sichra, who played in the infield; Anne Ingersoll, who played in the outfield; and Aimee Downey, who played in the outfield. We had only one freshman, Dan- jele Tweedy, who played first base and pitcher. | would like to congratulate all the people who played, and | hope to see them playing again in the spring. Good Luck!

He has worked well with the track team, and they have cooperated with him as much as they possibly could. This was a team that worked well as a group. Alton finished with 1282 points at the Annual Red Division Madison County Track Meet at Collinsville, and rolled to an easy team victory. Edwardsville was way behind with only 68 points, Granite City had 52 2 points, and Collinsville was history with only 27 points. Coach Diddlebock feels that to completely return the Redbirds to the form that won them State Championships in the 60's, they need to do some fine tuning. ‘We're off on our steps in the long jump, and we need to work on our vaulting form.” Hopefully, the track team will work on that fine tuning, and have an even more successful year in '88-'89.

Only the beginning of the Alton High School Girl's Soccer Team. When Mick Brown, the coach, was asked to describe last year’s season, he stated: “! was very happy with the first season. | felt that with the schedule we played, three wins was good. | was also happy with the skill improve- ments.” Many girls had signed up for the soccer team when it was first talked about, yet, less than half finished the season. How- ever, Coach Brown stated that he was “very happy with the numbers that came out. | would like that amount again in order to field a varsity team and a junior varsity team.” The team finished the season with three wins and eight losses. The three wins were: one against Metro East Lutheran and the other two against Wood River. “I've played soccer most my life, and winning feels great, even though we didn’t win much our first year. But it was only the beginning, and next year, since we'll have some experience as a team, we should win more games,” stated Ra- quel Raya, a varsity player.

PUTTIN’ TO THE TOP After the Alton High Golf Team was elimi- nated from last year's sectional, it ap- peared they would never get to the State Tournament again. 1976 was the last time they were there. ‘I'm really worried about my team next year. We really don’t have any depth after 2 players,” said Coach Overath. After the first couple of matches, it seemed that their coach had made a valid statement. They shot big numbers at easy courses and lost to bad teams. The team ran off a string of victo- ries only being nipped by Edwardsville, who has been 549-49 for the last 10 years, and who finished 2nd in the state tournament. Coach Overath was very confident com- ing into the Regional. “They were on a roll. They had shot five low team scores all close to beating the school record, and impressively, they tied for first in the conference tournament, giving them sec- ond place for the year. Well, what hap- pened, Coach? “It was short and sweet,” said Overath. The Redbirds missed sec- tionals by five shots. Nevertheless, the season didn't end there. It was only the beginning for the 1 and 2 players-Chad Randall and Brad Tiemann. They both went all the way to the State Tournament, where Ran- dall finished 12th and Tiemann finished 27th. Overall it was one of the best golf sea- sons for Coach Overath.

A VERY PROMISING YEAR With five returning lettermen and several young runners, the 1988 Cross-Country season appeared very promising. Consist- ing of three seniors, one junior, two soph- omores, and a freshman, the varsity squad placed in several meets. The squad finished first at the Madison County Meet, second at the Triad Invita- tional, and third at the Belleville East Invitational. In addition, they took first place at the Southwest Conference Meet, a feat that hasn't been accomplished since 1980. Seniors Waide Neal, Mike Velloff, and Maurice Manley, and sophomore Chris Scarborough made the All Southwestern Conference Team. However, the team didn't qualify out of Regionals, finishing in fifth. Yet, Neal and Manley qualified as individuals to go to Sectionals in Spring- field. Neal went on to the State Meet in Peoria, placing 24th in a blistering time of 15:11. Other contributing members were junior, Todd Salzman, sophomore, Aaron May- hew, and freshman, Tom Shirrell. Special thanks to Coach Diddlebock, and good luck to next year's team!

With the leadership of two J.V. -Varsity players, Chad Strohkirch and Matt Whisler, combining to lead the Alton Attacks. Goals were few, so they usually relied on a strong defense to back them up. Scott Lucas (also another J.V. Varsity player) and Vance Stutz held teams to low scores when games were tight. Kai Fiedler, an exchange student from Germany, center midfielder, was the muscle of Alton’s offense by giving passes, right and left, to a goal hungry, Chad Strohkirch. All in all, the junior varsity team finished with a pretty good season. With the lead- ership of Coach Schmidt, the J.V. team will become a Varsity team to remember.

A Place To Start The Alton High Freshmen Soccer Team did not exactly have the greatest season in the world, but they accomplished a lot. They got a year of experience under their belts, and they ended their season on a good note with a 6-0 victory over Jersey- ville. This brought their record to a mere 3-8, including two forfeit victories. Mr. Cappel, the coach, was pleased with the progress of his team, and had quite a bit of fun, too. The players this year worked hard and intend to work harder next year. If they stand by this, they should be as successful as their varsity team, and follow in their footsteps.

One of them was Sue Buckley, who has been around the sport for many years, but who was in her first year as the Redwings’ varsity coach. Another new face was Leon Wright, the assistant coach. Even with these new faces, the team ended the season with a losing record of just one win. However, Buckley was working at a disadvantage, because there are no middle school sports in the public schools. Some of the girls played power volleyball in the parochial schools in the Catholic League, but that’s about. “We're kind of starting over from scratch,” said Buckley. There was one veteran player on the Redwings, setter Raquel Raya, a senior in her third year on the team. Two other seniors, Nanette Crane and Sheri Parks, were first-year players. The rest of the team consisted of: Angie Elliot, Shawanda Clay, Bridget Hanlon, Amy Hall, Moneak Lenoir, Julie Grizzle, Kyra Mills, Misty Lung, Danielle Olmstead, and Kara Eschbach. by Bridget Hanlon Right: Team players and coaches watch the volley- ball team from the sidelines.

With the help of Coach JoAnn Dillon, the Alton High girls’ tennis team had a successful year, although the record doesn’t prove it. The team met every day until 5:00 p.m. practicing their backhand, improving their serves, working on their net shots, and anything to help sharpen their skills and prepare them for their match. Well, all the practice seemed to help, because the team had four wins, placed fourth in the conference tournament, and tied for seventh in sectionals. The doubles team, consisting of senior, Mandy Henesey, and sophomore, Claire Sun, qualified for the state tournament by beating their top rivals, Marquette High. Hopefully, the hard work and determination of the team will lead to an even more successful season next year. Claire Sun Upper right: Mandy Henesey volleying the ball back.

MOTIVATION MAKES IT : 4 | The Sophomore football team had a good season y 2 ’ this year, but they needed some motivation to .7 . get them started. It took the help of some ; excellent runnin g backs, and one of the toughest defenses to make it a winning season. We also had a good offensive line that gave us good protection most of the time. Even though they gave us a hard time, Coach Hook and Coach Eckhouse were great motivators. All in all we had an excellent season of 4 wins and 3 losses.

The J.V. team was not as successful as the Varsity team. The Varsi- ty jumped to a 7-0 start while the J.V. was 4-3 after their first seven games. They ended up with records of 12-9 for the Varsity and 10-9 for the JV. The success of the Varsity team was not the result of having the tallest players in the conference, on the contrary, none of the starters was taller than 5-11 2 “I’ve tried to use our lack of height as a moti- vational point with the kids” said Coach McAfoos, “they take pride in the fact that we've got a small ballclub, but that we can still play with anybody” The team earned the nickname of the “Runnin’ Redbirds” from their style of ballhandling. Their speed, leaping and scoring abilities also helped them attain this record. The Redbirds won the Bethalto Regional Tour- nament, but eventually lost to Lincoln, who became state champions for the third year in a row. Congratulations to the Redbirds of 1988-89.

The freshman girl's basketball season was like a Six L Fi N TED Flags roller-coaster, going up and down all the time. The start of the season was the deep drop in the ride; by Christmas break the team was 2-5. Then Santa Claus brought just what the doctor ordered. The Redwings finished 7-9 and they were back at the top of their game. With improvements in team defense and team play, the Redwings gained self- respect and confidence. Leading the way for the Redwings in scoring were Alicia Collins with 11 ppg, Camie Bechtold with 9 ppg, and Sophia Rounds with 7 ppg. On defense, Camie Bechtold pulled down 122 re- bounds to lead the team and averaged 13 ppg. Renee was next with 65 rebounds and averaged 8 PPE. In his 6th year of coaching, Coach Terry Mitchell had his hands full with 15 inexperienced girls, some of whom had never played organized basketball. Coach Mitchell said, “It is very difficult to win at the freshman level when there aren't any middle school programs. The teams that we play against have been playing together since 5th or 6th grade, but this is one of the most talented classes to have come along in several years.” Opponent Them Granite City 22 Belleville East 42 Belleville West 69 Riverview 20 Hazelwood West 49 Collinsville 45 Triad 31 Belleville Althoff 38 Edwardsville 73 Granite City Forfeit Belleville East 50 Belleville West 38 Collinsville 36 Hazelwood West 24 Triad 28 Belleville Althoff 29 Top: Alicia Collins on defense.

The varsity girls basketball team has seen some of the best of times and some of the worst of times all in one season. The Redw- ings started the season on a high note. At Christmas break the Redwings were 6-2. However, some key losses proved to be a dampering factor on the season. Coach Mary Bowling said, “The bad thing about the losses is that they were not even on the court, but affected the play on the court.” The Redwings lost two of their three seniors. Tabetha Broomfield and Tracey Taylor gradu- ated in January. Coach Bowling said, ‘The loss was very big to the team as Broomfield and Taylor accounted for 28 of the teams points. Gina Frizzell lead the team with 14.9 ppg. Lewis was close behind with 9.8 ppg. Gina also led the team in assists and steals. Julie Morgan, Felicia Smith, Shawanda Clay, Shen- ekia Jackson, Georgette Lawerance, Carrie and Camie Bechtold, and Alicia Collins proved to be a positive force for the Redwings. Morgan and the freshman really stepped in and pick up some of the slack along with other to help fill the scoring gap that was Opponent (varsity) Wood River Gramte City Belleville West East St Louis Jacksonville Cahokia Collinsville Bunker Hill Belleville Althott Edwardsville Belleville East Cahokia Granite City Belleville West Carrellton East St Lows Marquette Wood River Beardstown Belleville East Collinsvilfe Civic Memorial VARSITY GIRLS BASKETBALL Top: Sharon Lewis jumps for the ball.

Gospel Choir sings for AHS at an assembly. Darryl Blair impresses the crowd. This year a new group was introduced to the Alton High scene. The Gospel Choir, made up of several dedicated students, was put together by Mrs. Caffey. Throughout the year, the group held several performances. One in particular was an assembly given on Jan. 13, 1989 as a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. On that day, excerpts were taken from his famous speech “I Have Been to the Mountain Top”. After each excerpt, a short, inspiring song was sung by some of the members. Four guest speakers told of the eventful life he lead. One did this through words, one through music, and the rest through song. A member and President Chris Edwards discuss the performance in memory of Dr. Martin Lu- ther King Jr. A circle of members clap and sing for the cause. Peer Leadership is an anti-drug and alcohol group at AHS that works to promote self confidence among students. This year was better than ever with a “Drug and Alcohol Awareness Week,” which included a drug survey asking students to remain free from drugs and alcohol for seven days and hopefully longer. It also involved an assembly featuring a multi-media presentation which encouraged students to reach for their goals and to not let them be destroyed by drugs. The conclusion of Bionic Week was symbolized by a balloon launch. Peer also sponsors Operation Snowball every spring and cuuncils truant students through Operation Outreach. With the large num- ber of energetic underclassmen this year, Peer will be going strong for years.

Throughout the year Student Council also created many new activities to instill a stronger sense of school spirit and belonging among the students. Over the past year the Student Senate has sponsored the spring and fall blood drives, assemblies to create campus pride, a Halloween dance, Bionic Week activities, and the student elections held in January. They supported the Easter Seal Society through their participation in the Goofy Games at Gordon Moore Park. Student Senate held a breakfast for the underprivileged children and collected canned goods to be distributed to the needy. The Activities Board planned and handled all the preparations for the Back to School dance in September, the 1988 Homecoming dance, the Christmas dance, and Prom '89. They were responsible for upholding many Alton High traditions this year. For instance, the Activities Board sponsored the annual Powder Puff Football Game between the Junior and Senior girls on October 10th, which was won by the Junior girls. Another example is the annual Senior Award and Talent Show which was held February 9th. At Christmas the Activities Board sponsored a door decorating contest and sold candy grams. The money collected from the candy grams was donated to Blake Sandidge, a former AHS student who now suffers brain damage because of an automobile accident. Officers for the Student Senate include: (L to R) Amy Scholar (Parliamentarian), Nat Diaz (treasurer), Kasey Kline (Secretary), Jennifer Loflin (Vice president), and Jennifer Hughey (president).

Students take on a large responsibility when they sign up for Journalism. They quickly realize the pressure of getting out the monthly issues of the Redbird Word. In the beginning, students are assigned monthly “beats”. Beats are places each student checks for news stories every month. All of the possible stories are voted on and the most popular ones are then written for the Redbird Word. Not only do Journalism students learn how to find news stories, but they also learn how to write feature articles, lay-out pages, and edit copy. In the end, all of the students gain a valuable experience by taking Journalism. Darren Eccles looks on as Sara Roth sells the latest issue of the Redbird Word to Mike Cool. 7 After giving Carrie Daniel 25¢, Tim Schaberg waits in anticipation to see if his picture is in the paper. = a As always, Meg Davey and Carrie Owczarzak work hard to get their assignments done.

Much work and time is involved in producing a yearbook full of exciting photos and interesting articles that will capture memories for the future. During the month of August, a group of students attended a workshop in Quincy, Illinois. At this time, the cover for the 88-89 Tatler was designed and the theme “A Closer Look” was created. The Tatler staff also attended workshops at Forest Park Community College in St. Louis and at Topeka, Kansas. At these workshops the students learned to design layouts, write copy, and use graphics. They also picked up tips for being a better photographer and editor. Finally, there are the sales. Several dedicated staff members sold Tatlers everyday before school and during the lunch hours. However, all the long hours and hard work paid off because it produced a more colorful and an all-around better book! {rare syyiuiniuue iu ————_ While designing layouts, Kristin Pierce shows us the humor in selecting photos.

The German Club partakes in several activities throughout the year. For example, they sponsor a three week stay for German exchange students during the Easter Holidays. At this time, members of the club introduce the German exchange students to the American way of life. However, the most popular event is their annual trip to Germany. The German Club members spend three weeks of their summer vacation with the exchange students. During their stay in Germany the students visit such places as Munich and Kings Palace Gardens in Ludwigsburg, or take a cruise on Lake Constance. As a result, they learn more about the country and German culture. The group visiting Munich are from L to R: Rachel Hartmann, Stacey Kreitner, Gina Howald, Mr. Fischer, and Nicole Parrino.

The Spanish Club is not quite as busy as in recent years. However, they are spending their time wisely by earning money for field trips. A trip to Mexico is planned if enough people volunteer to venture into the wonderous country to our south. The students in their fourth year of Spanish also hope to go to Chicago. There they would visit the Hispanic community and museums. During the Holidays, all the Spanish classes sold Christmas items in order to purchase new educational videos. These may be important events, but a trip to Spain that is planned for the summer of 1990 takes the cake. In Spain, students would visit cultural events such as bullfights. A trip to the Prado, an art museum in the capital city of Madrid, is also planned. Most important of all, the Spanish way of life would be experienced in its entirety.

A Special Edition The Tatler Staff would like to present you with the mini-mag. This section of the yearbook is something new and interesting. It deals with issues concerning Al- ton High School, our community, and the world. We don’t want you to forget the importance of these issues in the future, so for your convenience we captured them nn n wr eee AHS Receives Grant To Keep Outreach Going Alton High School has been given $95,000 to continue Operation Out- reach, an evening school in which dropouts can drop back into school and earn c redits toward graduation. Operation Outreach also combats truancy among students who skip daytime classes at the school. The program began in 1986 to reach students who failed to make it to class. When a student begins cutting classes, Principal Tom Thompson assigns the student to a counselor who works with the student to solve the skipping problem. “We don't want students riding buses to Alton High and then cutting class all day to roam the neighborhood,” Thompson said. Operation Outreach provides nightly classes for dropouts, pregnant teens, and teens who had to quit school to work daytime jobs to support their families, said Thompson. Students up to age 20 may attend the night school. “We have kids in night school who would not be in school at all were it not for Operation Outreach,” stated Thompson. Presidential Bandwagon Visits The year’s top national story-the election of a new president-became an important Story locally as well. U.S. Sen. Paul Simon of Ilinois, who got his political start as a state representative from Madison County, was one of seven contenders for the Democratic presidential nomination. He won the Minois primary in March, despite a strong challenge from the state’s other favorite son, Jesse Jackson of Chicago. After more disappointments, however, Simon dropped out of actively campaigning for the nomination. Jackson held a rally at Alton High School. And President George Bush, Vice President at the time, spoke at the Madison County GOP’s Lincoln Day Dinner in Bethalto. Bush also returned during the general election campaign. In September more than 6,000 people turned out for a Bush rally at Altort Square. “Bush likes Alton,” his Mlinois campaign manager said. Great River Road Will Get Promotion The glories of the Great River Road and other attractions along the Mississippi River will be promoted all over the world in a new marketing effort by the Mississippi River Parkway Commission. The commission, which promoted cre ation of the 2,500-mile Great River Road, celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1988 in St. Louis. It received federal money set aside for the project. The commission will sponsor advertising, public relations activities, trade shows and consumer fairs in several foreign countries in the next year. State Sen. Sam Vadalabene, D- Edwardsville, leads the Illinois dele - gation to the commission. WHAT'S NEW IN THE LIBRARY? Hey! Check it out! There's something new in the library. A technology center full of computers is a new addition. The idea came about a year ago when the school was looking into a security system for the library. For the tech center, the school received a state fund of $20,000 under a Chapter Two Block Grant, explained Mr. Robert Jefferson, one of the AHS librarians. The technology center will be open from 7:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. Mr. Jefferson stated that there has been an average number of students and teachers using the center. Housed in the technology center are seven computers-one Apple WE, one Macintosh S.E., and five Apple Il G.S.'s. Mr. Jefferson added, ‘‘We want the center accessible to students and teachers during the school day.” Along with the addition on the technology center, the library has had a few other changes. Two VCR’s were also added. Now entire classes can watch educational video tapes in the library. Mr. Jefferson explained, “Now we are using the library more as a media center than ever before. Study halls have been completely removed and therefore utilization by classroom teachers has increased.” by Matt Brunnworth Denby Released James Denby rang in the new year in a Nicaraguan jail.

Good luck to all the new teachers for a successful career at AHS. by Carrie Carpenter ARSONS AT ROCKY FORK Tragedy struck twice this year at the tiny church at secluded Rocky Fork in Godfrey. On April 16, the New Bethel AME Church burned to the ground, the victim of an arsonist. Then, after the 25- member all-black congregation and volunteers from the communi- ty rebuilt the church, arson again turned it to rubble on Oct. 18. “I can't say a word,” said pastor Steve Jackson as the second fire smoldered. “I didn’t think people were this sick. This goes beyond vandalism.” In December, more than 500 people gathered in Alton for a rally in support of the church. The Rev. Bland Childers of Terre Haute, Ind., summed up the sentiments: “We've come to tell the people of Rocky Fork that they're not alone.” NEW COACH JOINS CHEERLEADERS A new cheerleading coach!

The area recorded just slightly more than 4 inches of precipitation during April, May and June, making it the second -driest spring since the landmark drought of 1914. Heat of 100-plus degrees arrived in June and reared its ugly head many times in July and Au- gust. The National Weather Service said it was the seventh-hottest summer since it started keep- ing records in 1870. “Tt’s a summer we'll never forget,” said Robert Hamilton of the National Weather Service.

We do have to, that’s why cars, clothes, en- tertainment, and money for our fu- tures are just some of the things we all need to get started in life. Work also gives us experience and shows us how to be responsible. It’s good for us, even if we should be relaxing and enjoying our high school years.

The AHS cafeteria!,A special piz- za parlor, complete with red-checkered tablecloths has been set up in one corner of the cafeteria. There students and teachers can order freshly-made pepper- oni or sausage pizzas and a choice of beverages such as lemonade, Kool-Aid, or milk. The pizza parlor is only one of the changes made this year by the school district's new cafeteria management ser- vice. Manager Beverly Joyce said that improvements were made to draw more students to the cafeteria. Other new features include a Salad and Deli bar, an Esta Fiesta bar, a Cafe Features bar, and a Grill Works bar. Ac- cording to Ms. Joyce, these bars give students a wider range of variety. She said sales have increased. How do students feel about the changes? Senior Alison Elliot commented that she enjoys the food and doesn’t hate to go to lunch. A new student at AHS, Melody Philis, said that in Michigan, the food wasn’t nearly the quality of the food here. Senior Kim Isom stated, “1 think the pizza tastes a lot better, because it tastes like Pantera's. ” by Tammy Bu- chanan and Lemonydue White. 1. Led Zepplin 2. Pink Floyd 3. Guns 'n Roses 4.

Jesse Jackson and Mayor of Atlanta, Andrew Young, visited the high school and presented speeches to a group of students and faculty. They en- couraged the students to say no to drugs, alcohol, and sex and to say yes to educa- tion and hope. Rev. Jackson said, “Say No to dope and Yes to hope.” Both of them offered the students positive goals to conquer and boldly stressed that they strive for success. A New Con gressman At the start of 1988 everyone knew the 21st Congressional Dis- trict would have a new represen- tative by the year’s end. Rep. Mel- vin Price, D-Belleville, had already announced he would retire at the end of his term, and four Demo- crats and one Republican were al- ready fighting for the chance to succeed the 44-year incumbent. What no one expected was that Price would die in April, making a special election necessary to fill his post for the few months before the general election. In the Aug. 9 special election, Jerry Costello won by fewer than 2,000 votes. But in November he widened the margin and settled in as the 21st District's first new congressman in 44 years. 1.

That's because the smiling 8-year-old with the backpack full of school sup- plies has the AIDS virus. Jason and his family first gained attention last year, when a state program offering blood for hemophiliacs was cut, threatening the transfu- sions he required. The program was eventually restored, but soon there after the family re- vealed that Jason had been ex- posed to the AIDS virus through a transfusion. Jason and his classmates grew to accept each other. 3. Basketball 4.

This year students can take American Government, Biology | Honors, Geometry | Honors, and Physical Education at 7:30 a.m. According to Mr. Marvin Mondy, biology teacher, early classes catch the students before they're “burned out.” Students in early classes seem to be more alert than those students taking thesame class later in the day, he commented. Mr. Howard’Shaw, American Government teacher, stated, ‘I like the 7:30 class, because | can get out in time-to do a little deer hunting after school.” What about the students who are in the early classes? Amy Sholar, junior, said, “! like 7:30 P.E. better because you get it out of the way, and the class is smaller.” Just remember: The early bird always has the first choice in Pit parking! by Jeannie Peipert and Carrie Owczarzak SENIOR YEAR Cramming for finals, Making the grade, Thinking about decisions That have to be made.

Curran Lunch provides a whole different meaning as one’s junior year rolls around. The upper classmen of Alton High receive the privilege of an entire hour for lunch. The cafeteria becomes obsolete for most of us. McDonalds, Rax, and the Beltline chain of fast food joints beckons for students to come enjoy their healthy meals. | must admit that going to these places has put a hole in my parent's pockets, but it’s worth it, isn’t it? Sure it is. There is no substitution for a good old super size bag of french fries. If the designated driver returns to the pit early enough, parking is no problem, and we get to see the famous senior pit ball “studs” of 5th hour lunch. They play a hard, tough game of serving, smacking, and diving for a tennis ball while cautiously observ- ing the boundary lines. An hour for lunch also gives one the opportunity of catching up on homework or cramming for the test you forgot about. Any person who has ever tried to rid Alton High of an open campus surely does not realize how much we upper classmen appreciate and love this privilege. Becky Blaske interrupts this game of pitball by driving through to find a place to park. Regina J. Dancy Samantha Marie Darr Mark J. Davidson Phillip Leon Davidson Dale S. Dawdy Julie A.

Remember the films, “Highway of Agony”, and “Blood on the Sidewalk ? For some students the films were funny, but for most a slow fear of death began to surface. Some people enjoyed seeing bodies cut in half, but for NORMAL people these films were scary. J a i Driving is fun, and having a license is great, but the films were shown for a reason. When driving, many people had second thoughts about “Putting the pedal to the medal” after seeing the films. They realize the consequences of their actions if they break the rules, even though most would rather not.

Maybe you need change for a dollar, a hamburger to take to the office you run for, or you spill something in the hall and you need someone to clean it up. These are just a few of the things that our secretaries, cafeteria workers, and jani- tors take care of during the day. We sometimes forget the importance of these people, but they are all very important to keep this school in order. Our secretaries, cafeteria workers, and janitors are the behind-the- scene-people who help make this school a better place for everyone.
