Being a senior—it’s a challenge and an opportunity we all have a shot at. When you make it to your senior year, you are looked upon to set good examples for the underclassmen to follow. For all of us the struggle to be a senior is hard, but for some of us the struggle is even harder. Becoming a senior was one of the most trying challenges I faced in my high school career. Seniorship sounds a lot like citizenship, and in a way it's very much the same. As a senior, you should talk about the goal you want to accomplish. But anyone can talk: you must show yourself you can win this challenge. When I first started my high school years. I had a very negative attitude. I wanted to be in with the in crowd. and I was for a while, three years to be exact. Then I saw what great attitudes the seniors had and how happy they were to be seniors. I thought. Well if they can do it why can't I; I can win just like them. I can be a senior. I will be a senior. I look back now at the freshmen and all the other underclassmen and say to myself. Do they really know what a great feeling it is to be a senior? When graduation comes, your heart flutters, while butterflies are in your stomach. Will they ever feel it? Will they ever know the meaning of senior life? The only way they will never know is if they aren't up to a challenge. I mean a greater challenge than in any sport. Sure. I played basketball as a freshman. softball, as a sophomore and junior. 1 was also president of our poetry club and a member of GAA. but that was not enough. I wanted to be a senior and wear that black and gold gown. I took the challenge, and I won! Crystal Nicholson Enjoying I ho freedom of being able to leave 7th fieriod are |ohn Craft and Jeff Korb. John and Jeff used the time during the fall to prepare for football practice. 6 Seniors Allcock-Borzaga Taking a break before creative writing class is Crystal Nicholson. Crystal likesi to write and was grateful for the opportunity to be in the class. The stage band is quite popular with seniors Emily Stroud and Brian Matticola. Emily and Brian liked to play the new music as well os some classic jazz. --------- Laura Branch NHS 3.4: A.F.S. 4; Choir 1.2: Academic Challenge | 4; Drama 3 Skip Braun Brenda Lee Broad Drama 2.3.4: Yearbook 3. 4: Ski Club 2.3.4; A.F.S. 1.2.3.4: Choir 1.2.3 Wendy Brockway Vo-Ed 3.4: OEA 3.4 Jim Brown Vo-Ed 3.4: Vica 3.4 Mary Bucci FT.A. 1.2.3.4: Senior Women; Art Club 4: Library Club 1 Milton Bunch IA 3: Football 1.2.3.4; Basketball 1.2.3.4; Baseball 2 Betsy Burns A.F.S. 2.3.4; Newspaper 4; Yearbook 3.4: Drama 2. 3.4: Senior Women Cyndi Calaway Vica 3.4: Latin Club 1.2: Peer Counseling 3.4 Kathy Caudill Michele Clark Choir 1 Jill Clint Vica 3.4 Seniors Branch-Clint 7 John Craft Baseball 1.2.3.4: Football 2.3.4: Basketball Sue Craft Caroline Crawford JA 3,4; Choir 4: Band 1.2. 3.4; Dart Newspaper 4: Key Club 1.2.3.4 Steve Daniels AC|VS 3.4; Machine Trades 3.4: VICA Club 3. 4 Darla Davis Band 1.2.3.4: Volleybal 4: Softball 3.4: Sr. Women 4; Art Club 4 Lori Dawson Home coming Court 4; Choir 1.2: FT A 1; Pres. 2: Drama 2 Yvonne DeGeorge Sandy DeLoatch Athletic Office 1.2.3.4 Debra Detore Band 1.2.3.4; Sr. Women 4 Joanne DeRose NHS 3.4: AFS 4: FTA 1. 3: Sr. Women 4: Who’s Who 4: Student Council 3 John Dhanens Freshmen Football Baseball 3 Lewis Doyle Student Council 4: Football 1.2.3.4: Team Capt. 4: Track 1.2.3.4 V Skills bring success IH 1 Many students here are active in areas other than academics. I would like to spotlight three seniors who have earned honors in areas not related directly to school. David Peura is a swimmer and the sole member of our swim team. Being the only member is rather unusual, but Dave was extremely good at his sport. Dave was the district runner-up in the back stroke his sophomore year and the district champion as a junior. In 1983. Dave won 6th place in the state for the 100 yard back stroke. When he is not swimming for the school. Dave swims for the YMCA. As of the end of 1983, Dave had swum 265 meets. He had received 134 first places. 45 second, and 26 thirds. He also swam at the YMCA National Competition in Ft. Lauderdale. Florida, for two consecutive years. Another senior is Cindy Applebee. Cindy was selected as one of 48 Ohio students to travel and perform throughout Europe as a part of the Ohio Honors Chorale. Cindy left in June. Although she had taken voice lessons for only four years. Cindy had become a fine singer and was an excellent pianist as well. Cindy planned to attend Miami University of Ohio to begin her college music career. Keith LaD. another senior, was chosen as the recipient of the (im Kanicki Outstanding Player Award and the Robert L. Wiese Memorial Scholarship. This award was given on the basis of football ability, scholastic achievement and community involvement. The award included a trophy and a $1000 scholarship. Not only was Keith honored by being chosen to receive this award, he was the first student from Ashtabula High School ever to receive it. Emily Stroud. Discussing her trip abroad with the choir director is Cindy Applebee. Cindy was chosen lo be one of 48 Ohio choir students to travel to Europe this summer. 8 Seniors Craft-Doyle As usual, Dave Peura practices swimming. His hard work and talent earned him a chance to compete at the YMCA national competition in Ft. Lauderdalo. Florida. Displaying his trophy is Keith LaDu. Keith was awarded the |im Kanicki Outstanding Player Award and the Roliert L. Wiese Memorial Scholarship this year. Charles Dufour Industrial Arts Club.

Brad Watson, a senior, must concentrate on what he is doing. He worked at McDonald's during his senior year to earn some extra money. Exercising a horse that she takes care of is senior Amy Hughes. After school. Amy took care of horses which were in training for the race track. 10 Seniors Gephart-Hanna fobs offer security Why woi8 Thinking of ideas to help the paper is Kraig Pyer. Kraig worked before, but he found not working enabled him to spend time with his activities. Just as many others do. I have a part time job. A job gives all of us a sense of responsibility and more importantly spending money. Not all of my classmates work, but those who do. do so for a variety of reasons. Experience is a big reason to work. Having a job means responsibilities, ranging from grooming horses to keeping customers satisfied. Most of my fellow students, including me. like getting paid for the job we do. being able to handle the money in our own way, and not having to go to our parents for total support. But others, such as Hector Class, like “proving to others that I can do a good job. As with anything, there are bad points about working. As Scott Smith said. By working. I hurt my grades, my friends and my teachers. It ruined me all the way around. Most of all. my other friends and I dislike working because of the hours, the exhaustion, and missing things like going out with friends. A job is necessary because of the money and experience.

Terry Slay strides to better himself. Running was a big part for Terry as he participated in cross country, basketball. and tennis. Many people participate in sports, but few put as much emphasis on sports as I and my friends, who include Milton Bunch and Terry Slay. We feel sports are important because they instill in us a sense of responsibility and make us strive to be successful. I know when I play sports. I have a responsibility to the team and coaches, and I work to be successful, an attitude which I feel carries over into other areas. I know Milton and Terry agree. Terry participates in three sports and feels they are important because they make his “want to be successful.” In order to be successful, he has to spend much time working to better himself. I know that after a cross country meet in which the team lost, he went home and ran to improve himself. I feel this is real dedication. Milton also participated in three sports and feels they are important to him because they give him something to look forward to. After a long day in school, sports give him Something to take my mind off of the daily routine.” Though some people don’t know it. for an underclassman, earning a letter is quite difficult. A young player has to put in so much time in a game in order to qualify. Yet, Milton has showed how important sports are to him by earning eight letters in his high school career, a feat which certainly requires strong dedication. Though my friends and I put much emphasis on sports, we still realize the need for a good education, and we feel the self discipline we learn from sports helps us to achieve in class.

Tom's ■ W going with Sue! That type of talk was all that I [ seemed to hear mm mtm from kids around the school. On arriving from South Africa, my first observation was of the strange American fettish—guys walking their girls to their classrooms, dining romantically” together at lunch or just sinking into the depths of their partner’s eye while those who don't, stare indifferently at those who do. I asked a few why they did or didn't go steady. Diana Potts and David Peura both agree that going steady is having someone who cares.” And Deana Hubbard says. A good relationship is sharing memories and special times together. Americans still confuse me. though. Some say will and some say won't. The surprising thing is that they all have valid reasons. I prefer being single, says Terrence Hanna, because it's very relaxing and there are not that many problems to worry about. There are many who agree with him and add that they hate being tied down. I don't know. People come up with the strangest reasons. Bill Potter's girlfriend keeps him out of trouble he might get in to if she weren't there. Laura Branch again has a rather different way of describing the meaning of going steady: “The ball and chain routine,” she says. I guess that respect, trust and security are important in a relationship, just as Vicki Grippe suggests. And Crystal Nicholson says it all. There is nothing better than someone who is there to hold you when you need it most. Someone who can accept you the way you are. I am still undecided. To woo or not to woo is still my question.

This year I am taking three honors classes in English, calculus, and Problems of Democracy (POD). Taking honors classes is very beneficial to me because it challenges me to maintain good grades. I can not try to “just get by when 1 take honors classes or college prep classes. I must work hard. Although good grades are important. I do not dwell only on school work and studying. I believe it is important to broaden my horizons. and school cannot totally fulfill these horizons. Realizing it is important to speak proper English, balance check books, and understand the government. I also realize that knowing how to do these things is not enough to fill my life. A student shoul participate in clubs, sports, and other organizations outside of school in order to fully understand the real world. Cindy Applebec 16 Seniors Osborne-Potts lake my studies seriously they are important to me. I strive to get good grades in every class because education is important in life.” Terrence Hanna I think studying is important because it improves your grades, and if you stud well in high school, it sets a good habit to follow in college.

With much difficulty and determination. Lisa Smith walks down the hallway. Lisa's injury at cheerleading camp hindered her for about two months. Injuries often occur at school, at home, and on the job. and our students at this school are no exception. Though the only injury I’ve had was fluid on the knee which required a leg brace. I know some people who have been injured many times and have had some from freak accidents. One person I know who has been injured often is Robbie Ruple. He has broken five bones, including his tailbone which he injured when he was back-peddling during a tennis drill. He has been injured almost everywhere—at school, at home, and on the job. Another person I know who suffered a mishap is Dave Peura. David in his junior year was injured in a very freak accident. Once he was looking through an observation window near a swimming pool. He leaned against the window and suddenly it shattered, glass falling everywhere. He was cut and had to receive stitches. Though many people have been injured in some way. there are always the few” who seem to get injured all the time, whether it be a freak accident or not.

Jeff was involved in many activities and devoted a lot of time to each of them. Ciubs spark interest With about 25 extracurricular activities at school, it’s hard not to find things that would coincide with one's interest. One of my classmates is Lisa Smith, and she finds that being involved in ski club, backpack club. National Honor Society and Senior Women gives her a variety of things to do. with each giving her new experiences. David Peura thinks that being in Student Council, a class officer, in pep band and stage band helps him to enjoy life at school and help out my school at the same time. I agree with Sandy Pratt who also believes that being involved makes her feel as if she belongs. Students like Sandy feel Since I have extra time in my schedules, why waste it? I'll participate in school activities. It will be fun. I think that involvement within school helps students keep out of trouble and get into things of their interest. As my friend. Todd Humphrey stated. Activities add to your education and they cut some of the ho-hum out of school.” At AHS there are a number of my friends who do participate, but as with anything else, there are some who do not get involved and do not want to. I feel that participating in school helps the individual to be a part of the school, make friends, and promote school spirit. Unfortunately, those who do not participate in school activities are missing out on a lot of fun and many learning experiences. So my friends and I would like to encourage participation in all students who don't get involved. They don’t know what they're missing. Beth Headman While keeping her eye on the director.

Upper classmen anticipate success in 1985 Being a junior means that there is only one year before I graduate, and let me tell you that’s a pretty good feeling! I guess I could also say that I like being a junior because I am now labeled an “upper classman”; no longer am I a freshman who is barely noticed and is offered elevator tickets” by the seniors at the beginning of the year. Although it feels good to be in eleventh grade, it is not all fun and games. I think that this year will be my hardest year ever; the work is definitely more complicated, and there is more of it! juggling two honors courses along with my other college prep classes isn’t easy to say the least. But I am gaining important knowledge from these classes—knowledge which I know will be a benefit to me in my college years. I am glad to be a junior, and I feel that I have matured a lot since I came to Ashtabula High. Hopefully, that maturity will guide me down the right path, one which will lead to a bright future and great success. Only one more year to go and I'm on my way— to the future!

Michael Jackson’s talent arouses interest. At this stage of my life I have developed several hobbies—roller skating, corresponding with pen pals, and when I feel inspired. writing poetry! But my most recent hobby is collecting posters, pictures and any other items dealing with my long-time idol. Michael jackson. Since I was a little girl. I’ve idolized and admired him. In fact, when I used to play house, he was my make believe husband and the father of my eight baby dolls! I'm past that point now with another more realistic goal in mind: to attend his upcoming concert tour this spring. Hopefully I can get a front row seat. I suppose some of you are wondering why I like Mr. Jackson so much. Well . . . physically 1 think he's cute even though he's not very muscular at all. As far as his personality. I am relying on what I assume Michael is like. One thing that annoys me is to hear people saying Michael is really gay or getting a sex change so that his name will be “Michelle. All I have to say to those people is how do you know whether he’s gay or not? In my opinion those vicious lies and rumors were started out of jealous, envious feelings toward Michael's growing popularity, continuous success, and extreme wealth. That his voice happens to be high pitched and that he recently stated in his THRILLER video that he is different from other guys means nothing. I perceive him as a shy. sensitive, caring person and a dynamic, fantastic, excellent, and talented superstar. Rita Weils As a hobby.

Sophomores finally have become accustomed to high school life Knowing I only had two more years before graduation made becoming a sophomore even better than being a freshman. Last year I suffered through the fate of most other freshmen. I was teased and told to take an elevator to the third floor, too. I was so proud to be in tenth grade finally. But it hasn’t been easy. I got the idea of how high school differed from junior high, and I was able to function better. My classes were even more challenging than ever, and I was finding it harder than before to keep up my grades. All of the homework seemed as if it came unexpectantly. but I actually enjoyed the challenge offered by my college preparatory and honors courses. As the oldest out of four girls, my parents expected more from me since it is my job to set an example for my younger sisters. I feel I did a pretty' good job obtaining honor roll grades, and 1 am looking forward to the future challenges of my junior and senior years.

Students’ attitudes about their names vary There is so much meaning in a name. Stephen Thomas felt that a name expressed dignity and sometimes your ethnic background.” If you look around, you can see just what he means. If you look at the names Nick Visnosky. Andy Jakowlew. Mark Jadwisiak, and Harriet Slebodnick. you can see that they all definitely have an ethnic origin. A large number of people were named after grandparents, parents, and other relatives. Teresa Wood was named after her grandmother because My parents thought it would be nice to use Grandma's name. Jim Funke was named after his father and John Jones was named after his uncle. The list goes on and on. Many students liked their names but there are always a few that would rather have names such as Amanda. Trista. Jessica, or Amber. Some of the boys would have preferred names like Duane. Steve, or Terry. One would just like to change the spelling of his name from Stephen to Steven. There were many different reasons for people liking or disliking their names. An example is Amy Ashley, who likes her name because it's short. Even though some people complained about their names, most were satisfied because of the love that was used by their parents in making that decision. Troci R. Wilcom ) I On her way to her next class is sophomore Amy Ashley. Amy enjoyed her name because it is short, hardly ever mispronounced, and is never mispellcd. Helping out Mrs. Perkins are Darlwin Hoskin and Letitia Pettway. These students often had problems with their names being spelled incorrectly or being mispronounced. Because she considers it to be uncommon and unique. Danielle Aute likes her name. Because her name was so uncommon, people were often in doubt about its pronounciation. 0 Dave Miggo Anthony Miller Chris Miller Lynette Miller Tony Miller Tracy Miller Rodney Morris David Mullen Shelly Mullen Shelly Murphy Melissa Musser Cory Nagle Kenny Naylor Perry Northrop Kelly Orth Richard Palmer Sophomores Miggo—Palmer 31 r v |im Patterson Letitia Pettway Marty Placko Beverly Potts Tami Preston Heidi Probst Robyn Pyer Brian Ralston Dave Randolph Leroy Randolph Kelly Reams Leesa Richmond Judy Ringler Nancy Ringler Luis Rivera Arthur Salrin Eriberto Santiago Elizabeth Sawicki Rick Scheanon Beth Shaffer Bob Sholtis Angie Short Mark Skaggs Ken Skaruppa Harriet Slebodnick Pam Snitcher Lisa Sparks Denise Spencer V.

Many sophomores believe pets are important Many of the sophomores I surveyed felt that owning a pet was a great experience. It showed in the number of people who possessed pets; out of one hundred and four students, seventy-four had had a pet at one time, and only eight had never had a pet that belonged to them. Dogs and cats apparently are the most popular. Some of the people possessed more unusual pets, however. They ran the gamut from rabbits, birds, horses, a raccoon, a goat, a ger-bil named Woodstock, a python, and an iguana. Perhaps the most unusual It may be cold outside but Angie Short still has to care for her pets. She was one of those sophomores who had many animals and found love for them all answer came from a girl who said that she had a dog. a cat. and my boyfriend. Attitudes toward pets varied as much as the pets themselves. Many felt that pets were great company and good listeners, especially when their owners were depressed. Others felt that animals were a nuisance, especially when they had to feed them or clean up after them. Protection was frequently listed as an advantage to having a pet. No matter how many or what type of pet they had. the sophomores I surveyed seemed to enjoy their animals. Betsy Burns Showing off her pet dwarf rabbit is sophomore Sarah Duricovic. The rabbit was Sarah's only pet. but even the companionship of one pet can be rewarding.

Frosh find their way For the class of ’87 the first day of school this year was a day they would like to forget. Amidst the excitement of seeing friends that they hadn't seen all summer, getting lost in the school and putting up with upper classmen who gave them the wrong directions, it proved to he a very confusing day for freshmen. They made the best of it. though. Once they got to know the upper classmen, who helped them get lost during those first days, they started to enjoy their freshmen year. We all have to start somewhere” was the optimistic outlook from freshman Vicki Weaver. Some freshmen had an advantage because of older brothers and sisters who had told them what to expect. John Lewis said he looked forward to hanging around with his older brothers. The good, sound advice he received from his brothers was. If you do your work and mind your own business, you won’t get in trouble.’’ Shauna Peer thought high school wasn't as bad as her older sisters had told her it would be. Having older siblings in school came in handy during first days when freshmen were getting lost and needed advice they could trust. Besides looking forward to summer vacation, most freshmen looked forward to making new friends, getting more involved in school activities and enjoying their first year of high school. 34 Freshmen Abrams—Coutts In an attempt to remove freshman Craig Coutls from their way are seniors Lou Doylo and Jeff Korb. Freshmen had to learn to put up with harrassment from upperclassmen who thought they owned the school. Apologizing to sophomore Connie Stewart because he is lost is freshman Jim Arsulic.

Academic achievement and friendship were just two reasons for his success as a student. Looks are important Freshmen aware of style and upperclassmen Members of the freshmen class proved to be very conscious of their appearance. Many students felt that their looks were important to their own morale as well as their acceptance by others. The style seemed to be short hair for guys, and curly, well-kept, medium length hair for the girls. Also very dominant was the physically healthy body. Many people spent their free time as well as gym classes toning and building their bodies. Besides being conscious of their appearances. the freshmen class was also aware of the importance of personal relationships with other people. Many stated their strongest characteristic was being able to make and maintain friendships. In order to meet new people, many freshmen took much of their free time to be involved in extra-curricular activities, such as clubs, sports, and band. When asked, freshman fames Griffith had this to say about extracurricular activities: I participate in sports because I like to stay in shape and I enjoy meeting new people. It also gets me out of the house. In a recent survey done by the yearbook staff, the freshmen seemed to feel that their shyness was a hindrance to them not only socially but academically as well. Many felt that they would participate in more activities if they weren’t so shy. Freshmen Steve Pyles and Ron Newsome both said. I'd like to be taller so I could compete with the upperclassmen. This was a very common feeling among freshmen.

Freshmen enjoy their family relationships In a survey of the class of 1987. I found that most freshmen are close to their families and feel that relationship is important to their lives. Some comments by fourteen-year-old Tom Broad are typical of those made by many of his classmates. According to Tom, his family is close. The family is caring and understanding yet busy and hard working. Tom feels his parents basically let us be our own person. Tom finds both good and bad to being the youngest child in the family. When I was younger. I used to get picked on. Now I’m happy being the youngest because I can bum around with my older brother Lance. I enjoy him driving me and my friends around, and I like going to college with him. Tom says that with busy schedules, the family now finds it difficult to spend time together. He's enjoyed going on the various vacations his family has taken. Many of them have been ski vacations, and skiing is Tom's favorite sport. But Tom quickly added. It's also nice to sit around the house and tease my sister Brenda—or even better, to listen to her trade opinions with my dad. leff Korb |ul� - R.md Raquel Rashid Ginger Rauhc Craig Rich Gina Richardson Bill Ritchey Paula Ridenour lose Rivera Amy Roberts Path1 Rood Kevin Root julia Rosario l.isa Rose Greg Rossetti Amy Rowe Ricky Runnion s Freshmen Rand—Runnion 39 r Tim Rylance Zoraida Sanchez John Sawyers Lisa Scheanon Leonard Scolt Brian Shislowski Ike Shoaff Scolt Slav Matthew Slchodnick Darlene Sousa Don Spence Holly Sparks Darnell Springer Tracy Stewart Richard Swartz Karen Taggart Tammy Thomas Melvin Thompson Stacey Tittle Eric Tyson leanne VanAllcn Sandra Vera Sandy Walker John Warner Ron Warner Julie Watson Vickie Weaver Tammy Wells Melissa Welser Rachelle Westerburg Richecna Westlake Kim Zelinski 40 Freshmen Rylance—Zelinski Freshmen dating ?

I could barely talk. I got into the car and didn't say anything. After I had been riding a while, it wasn't so bad. I really enjoyed his company and wanted to go out again. I wondered whether he’d ask me: it took him a while but he did. He then took me home and walked me to the doorstep. By the time I got into the house, my mom had already asked me ten thousand questions. I couldn't really hear her. I just sort of glided up the steps, sat on my bed. and thought of my very first date.

Students need to be on a personal level with decision makers I wish I could understand the administration. It's hard to believe they can run a school system without talking to the students. Dr. Wert, the superintendent; Mr. Rossetti, the director of education; and Mr. Lupo. the business manager, are probably the most heard of names besides Mr. Gephart. the principal, and Mr. Pope, the assistant principal. I don't understand how anyone can know the special needs of the system without ever even visiting the students. The system needs to have a personal level instead of just paper work and telephone calls. Very seldom is Dr. Wert seen in the hallways conversing with students, and when he is seen. I don’t think many students know who he is. Once in a while. Mr. Rossetti, the director of secondary education, and Mr. Lupo. the business manager, are seen in the local newspaper. I am really surprised at the attitudes of the students, also. It seems that no one really cares who is in charge Taking time oul to share a few laughs with several of the students. Mr Gephart displays his sense of humor. No matter how busy Mr. Gephart.’s schedule was. he would always make time for the students. of the schools. I bet that three-fourths of the students don’t know the names of the administrators. One senior told me. I didn't even know who was on the school board until this year. Every month the school board has a meeting in which members discuss topics for the schools. The public is invited to attend, but I think only the press go. Another group in authority is one that gets very little recognition, the guidance counselors. Every day Mr. Petros and Mr. Klingensmith assist students with personal as well as school problems. Mr. Petros and Mr. Klingensmith have been most helpful to the seniors in their career choices. I think these two men should be commended for a job well done. I’m not saying the administration is doing a bad job. because they’re not. I just think we could get more accomplished if we were all on a more personal level. Troci R. Wikom 42 Administration Helping a student with his college and career decisions Is Mr. Petros. Besides helping seniors. Mr Petros also assisted the underclassmen with school, personal, and any other problems they might encounter throughout high school. The assistant principal. Mr. Pope, is mostly known as the disciplinarian of the school. Even though Mr. Pope gave out the punishment to those kids who broke the rules, he was also known for his one-of-a-kind personality. t Being o guidance counselor is not an easy task as expressed by Mr. Klingensmith. As he talks to the POD class. Mr. Klingensmith explains the problems they will face in the future. He was known for his always smiling face and willingness to serve. Cofhered together to discuss plans are Mr. Rossetti, director of education: Dr. Wert, the superintendent: and Mr. I.upo. the business manager.

I've noticed something about some of the faculty that not many people realize. The faculty does more for this school than just assign homework and lecture. Many teachers take their own time to help with extra-curricular activities. Besides teaching physical education and health. Bob Walters also coaches the varsity basketball and tennis teams. Having had Mr. Walters for class. I know for a fact that he is one who believes strongly in positive thinking. Because he exudes this attitude. his players are better athletes and better people. Rollie Mushrush. an English teacher, is also the football coach. Even though 1 don't really know Mr. Mushrush. I've seen what he can do with an unsuccessful football team in such a short time. The golf coach. Tom Carr, teaches American history and current history. Fortunately I've had the pleasure of being in Mr. Carr's class. Because he is an avid golfer, he decided to share his knowledge with students eager to learn. Even though he is dedicated to his profession of teaching biology and physics. Ray Billy is just as dedicated to the cross country team, which he coaches. Mr. Billy can almost always be seen jogging around town in his spare time. Another very dedicated person I've been fortunate enough to have as a teacher, yearbook adviser, and newspaper adviser is Miss Loretta Martello. Whenever Miss Martello is away from her creative writing and English classes, she is helping the yearbook staff. I wish I could write about every member of the faculty that helps with extras, but that would be impossible. Teachers need to be recognized not just as teachers but as giving people.

Allshouse-Mapes Faculty 45 The teachers aren’t here for just teaching; they also listen Every day when I walk through the hallways. I notice something that's really great to see. I’m talking about the students and teachers that take some time out of their busy day to share a smile with one another. One such teacher who always makes time for a student is Mr. Martinez. I am really lucky to have been in his class for four years. Even though he is busy with the various aspects of the band, Mr. Martinez finds time to spend with students on a personal level. Another such teacher is Robert Allshouse. Even though some people might think his style is a little off the wall.” Mr. Allshouse really knows music. Because I’ve had him for music appreciation my senior year. I've gotten to undersatnd him better. Mr. Allshouse is a always willing to talk to Involved a student with a problem or to one just wanting to pass the time of day. These two teachers are just a couple examples of how teachers and students in this school are able to relate to one another. It’s really good to see students just stopping by to see teachers whom they consider friends. I know that after I graduate. I’ll never forget those special friendships. Traci Wilcom Taking time out of their busy schedules to share a laugh are Mr. Walters and Mindy Barchanowicz. It was nice to see students and teachers getting along.

I really believe that the custodians, secretaries, cafeteria workers, and maintenance engineers here are under-rated. Without these people the school could not function. 1 am really impressed by the dedication these people put into their work. The custodians are fine workers and very friendly people. These people should really be commended for a job well done. Brenda Broad stated. Not only do they do their job. but they are easy-going so the students can relate to them. The secretaries are the most amazing. All day they put up with fake illnesses, loud mouths, phone calls, and people constantly signing in and out. The secretaries have one of the most important jobs in the school. Without them the offices would be in constant pandomonium: as a result Mr. Gephart and guidance wouldn't be able to get their jobs done and the school would be a mess. Students are always complaining about the food in the cafeteria, but you never see them bringing a lunch from home. Confusing? You bet it is. The ladies in the cafeteria do a really fine job of preparing meals for hundreds of kids and hardly any students appreciate them. I think deep down everyone knows how well those ladies do their job. but won’t admit it because they don't want to change the reputation about school food. Just imagine what the school would be like without the maintenance engineers. In winter everyone would freeze, and in summer everyone would roast. Besides controlling the temperature, these men fix just about everything in the school. If there's a cabinet to be made, they'll make it. If there's a light to be fixed, they'll fix it. No matter what, these men can handle it. These people are all priceless. They relate to the students and do their jobs well. I bet there are not many schools where a student can say that and mean it! Traci R. Wilcom 48 Non-certified Busy ut iirork is the new secretary. Mrs. Singletar v Even though she was new this year, Mrs. Singletary seemed to fit right in with her cheery personality and warm smile. Being a secretary was not easy, but she handled it just fine. Custodian Wanda Morrison takes time out from her work to share a few laughs with Brenda Broad. This creates a good example of the friendships that are formed between students and the school employees throughout the students' four years. Keeping the school neot und the floor shined is one of the custodians. Shirley Colby. The custodians are a very hard working group of ple who receive little recognition for their valuable efforts toward our school. Taking a break from their daily routine are the cafeteria workers. These women have the job of preparing well-balanced lunches for elementary as well as high school students. They are the workers in the central kitchen of the school system.

Was I glad; summer finally arrived. Summer—a long-awaited break from the painstaking routine of school. It was a time for fun. jobs, and camps. I along with many of my classmates worked during the summer break. Fast food restaurants were the largest employers of us. while others worked for family businesses. Dan Martello, one of my classmates, worked at Martell Cleaners for his father. He jokingly told me that one advantage of working for the family is that when he gets fired, his chances of being re-hired are excellent. Some of my classmates attended various camps during the summer. Dave Peura went to Boys' State to learn how the government functions. He told me he learned more about government there than he had ever learned in school. To improve his basketball skills. Terry Thompson attended the Westminster Basketball Camp. He evidentally succeeded in improving his skills as he won two trophies, one for the Most Valuable Player. As usual, though, many of us just enjoyed our summer, having the time of our lives away from the rat race of school.

No. that wasn't my name, was it?” These are a few of the many questions that I asked myself as Mr. Gephart announced the 1983 candidates for homecoming queen. I was excited after I realized that the members of my senior class elected me to be one of the candidates. I was greeted by my friends with hugs and warm smiles, not realizing all of the excitement that I would encounter, especially the pride and joy. The night finally arrived, and as I was approaching the high school where the parade was to begin, I began to feel a number of emotions stir within me. I and the rest of the candidates were directed to our appropriate cars and introduced to our drivers. The parade was beginning and 1 was extremely excited. As we paraded down the street, we saw people waving to us and greeting us with good wishes. We approached the field and our cars lined up at the north end. Fortunately, the weather was agree- able. and as we climbed onto the tops of the corvettes, the only aspect that was annoying was the wind blowing my hair to and fro. especially after the time that it had taken to get it just right. The announcer began the procession and the cars started to move. The crowd cheered at us and made us feel like the stars of the show. 1 felt lucky to be one of the girls chosen for court and appreciated the attention. After the cars stopped. 1 was helped out of my car by a football player, neither of us knowing what exactly to do but smiling and trying to make the people think we knew what was going to happen next. I was escorted to the place where all the other candidates were, thanking God that 1 didn’t have to go first. I heard my name announced and my escort and I slowly walked toward the cheering crowd, eventually encountering my parents. The queen's name was announced and. even though it wasn't me. I was excited, for I felt honored to be on court, an honor many take for granted. Vicki Grippe Merriment ami excitement are expressed as Iaiwie Doyle and |eralyn Parrnelee dance the night away. The dance was held at Kent State in the Commons. The members of the 1983 Homecoming Court are Michelle Allen. Vicki Grippe. Sue Osborne. Melanie Nlokerk. Stephanie York. Laurie Allcock. Carrie Housel. Norma Platt. !.ori Daw- son. Cindy Applebee. and Lynne Stanquist.

I didn't think I would get a positive reaction after the fall variety show for a few reasons. One was we had only a few practices which was unusual, because when we practice for the Spring musicals, we practice for months. Another reason was that a few students in the show hadn't really performer! on stage before. You surely couldn’t tell, on the night of the performance. I couldn't believe the size of the audience. It was practically full and the people in it were sending out positive vives. Another great thing about our Small World was that some of the teachers actually got involved. Now. I must admit that their acts were a bit rusty. but since you could tell they were having an enjoyable time, it made us laugh along. I know I surely did. especially when Mr. Mapes told his type of “old- fashioned humor and when the faculty band played some of those “different instruments. Not only were there students involved from my school, but three other students from Edgewood also participated. This was because a part of our show had AFS songs in it. Melanie Niekerk taught us one song from South Africa and the AFS student from Edgewood Isaias Gonzalez taught us a song from his country which was Costa Rica. His host brother and sister. Steve and Julie Farr, also participated in the AFS act. I think it was nice that we had other students from another school involved, it made the schools unified rather than competitive. Even though the Variety Show itself lasted less than two hours, the memories that I hold will last for quite some time. Brenda Broad Both students Melanie Niekerk an«l Brenda Listening to Mr. Mapes's one man comedy Broad practice the song “In the Mood.

Variety S Andrew, Linda, and Jim find their AFS experiences worthwhile! I remember when I received the news that I was actually chosen as an AFS student; my heart was pounding. I knew immediately that I wanted to live in a big city and in a Spanish speaking country. I was happy to learn I was going to Venezuela. Venezuela is a warm country all year round with temperatures in the 80's in daytime and the 60's at night. I live in a valley an enjoy vacationing in the mountains and visiting the beautiful sea shore. I do a variety of things to occupy my time here. One of my favorites is going to the beach with my friends. I also enjoy singing in the church choir, a new experience. I am happy with my family: they are very family oriented so I have met many people. We also belong to a social club, where I enjoy going to meet interesting people. AFS is a great experience. To live in a new country and learn a different culture is a dream. Linda Neuhofs My AFS summer in Vilhelmina. Sweden, was exciting and interesting. My family and 1 enjoyed many things together, like getting up early in the morning and hunting for berries in the forest or tracking moose and reindeer for my father. My family would also take me many places to see different sights, such as Laplanders town where they held the Midsummer festivities. My family and I got along quite well, except for the language barrier. There were a few occasions when we had to bring our dictionaries to dinner with us. My brother and mother could speak only a little English, but my father could speak none, so this also made it hard for us. But we survived. When it was time to come back home, it was one of the saddest experiences in my life. The night before I left, family and friends had a going away party for me. And when I was at the train the following day. they all came to see me off. Andrew Terry' I live in the northern part of Mexico City in the Coloni Pasteros. In the family, my family consists of two sisters and three brothers. 1 share a room with my oldest brother Enrique. At home, my new family and I do many things together—movies, camping, sighting, parties. But everything here was made for short people. The beds are small, and. of course. I have to duck every time I go through a doorway. I go to the Tecnologico Universitario De Mexico with my 18-year-old sister. Ericka. My school is a lower class school that is not very pretty. But my friends in it are super. Everybody here is so nice. My friends are always taking me places to see in Mexico City. My school is different from school in the United States. The students can smoke in class, and our study halls are times when we can sit outside and talk with our friends. But classes are about the same. lim Rodriguez 58 Americans Abroad Soiling to Vasa, Finland.

Americans Abroad 59 AFS student finds home away from home One thing I look forward to every year is meeting the AFS student. I hadn't become a real member of AFS till this year, but my sisters before me would bring the AFSer home for dinner or along on a family outing. Last year I got a chance to become friends with Ricardo Nimo, since he was staying just down the street from me. Our friendship inspired me to take part in the bus stop over the summer when my family and 1 shared our home with an AFS student who was returning home. Because of these two experiences I was quite interested in meeting this year's AFSer. Melanie Niekerk. I have to admit at first I was not too excited about having a student from South Africa. My mind was thinking all kinds of different descriptions. I figured she wore a grass skirt with beads in her hair and prayed to a tree or something. But 1 soon discovered 1 was wrong. After talking with Melanie about a variety of subjects. 1 found her to be just about the same as most students. Her interests include reading, writing, theatre, music and dance. She is staying with the Perkins family on Sanborn road. 1 used to coach baseball with Jim Perkins, her father, and know the family pretty well. Jim is the owner of Perkins and Peet Remodeling Inc. Her mother. Jane Perkins, can often be found subbing for one of the secretaries in the Ashtabula Area City Schools. Melanie has a sister Gail in the 11th grade at AHS and a brother Brian at West Jr. High. I have often heard jane tell the story of how she. too. had wondered what kind of girl would come from South Africa and how. when they called for the AFS student for their family at Cleveland Hopkins. Melanie came running, crying That's my family. It seems that Melanie has fit in well. Tarin Hale At home. Melanie Niekerk enjoys a nice quiet With a good book.

AFS Student 61 Lunch lime in the cafeteria is quite frequently list'd for activities other than eating Students often slept or anight up on their neglected homework.

Right? Another strange going on I happened to observe was a certain sophomore male council member of the x peri- od lunch who for some reason enjoyed tossing french fries! 1 guess you wanted to start a food fight, didn't you? You know who you are! It's different from West Jr. High because here there are more people and fewer seats. said freshman Tammy Wells, when asked her opinion of our cafeteria. You're right. Tammy. There are fewer seats, and certain people seem to sit in the same ones everyday. It seems that each clique has its own place to sit. We privileged” upperclassmen gather at our respective tables, and of course, the freshmen cling together, too. But don't get me wrong—this is not always the case. As we mix and mingle. we talk about lots of different subjects, ranging from the latest movies. songs, or TV shows to our torrid romances to our seemingly impossible homework assignments. We always find something to say to pass the time. Now that we’ve completed this quiz, review all of the wrong answers and don't forget the correct one. The cafeteria offers something appealing for everyone. Rita Wells Do Terry Slay. Melanie Myers, and Mr. Horst look like salad lovers?

I went to the library and found a wide variety of novels, research books and magazines that met the needs for almost all of us. I was surprised because I’ll bet that twenty years ago when you were here you had to go to the public library next door. Most of us go to the library during our study halls but a friend told me that her English teacher had reserved the library for her class period to start research for term papers. Other teachers often reserve the library to teach basic library skills. I've often seen the place so busy that the librarian. Mrs. Agnesjean Artman. simply had to have help. Several students like Kelly bong. Brenda Korb. Bill Cutlip. and Kelly Reams gave up their study halls to assist Mrs. Artman in checking out books, categorizing shelves and writing letters. Amy Hughes Library 65 Students get out of classes for assemblies We're having an assembly second period? Fantastic! 1 can't wait. That means no English; that makes it even better! We've had some really good assemblies this year. They starter! with the AFS assembly where everybody got to meet Melanie Niekerk. our foreign exchange student and hear about the summer that Andrew Terry spent in Sweden. As usual, we had pep assemblies before the big football games. The With the aid nf video art, the rock band Arc. sponsored by Campus Life, entertains the student body. The group was well received by the students. biggest pep assembly was before the homecoming game when the Court and their escorts were introduced.

On a little different track was the assembly in which Arc,” a rock band sponsored by the local branch of Campus Life, performed. No matter what the assemblies are about, they are a really welcome break in the day.

From one unauthorized afternoon road trip to Baldwin-Wallace College to the bottom of the barrel, the dreaded Pit. Rumors had surfaced about Mr. Pope's sudden crack down on truancy, but to us that was trivial talk. We thought we never could possibly be suspended, when there were such bad students running loose throughout the school. All our images were suddenly shattered; we had to spend three long, grudging days in the Pit.” The first day proved to be the better of the two (By the way. we spent only two of the three days down there; they let us out for good behavior. What a joke, that was!). If you ever thought sitting in school all day was bad. try to sit in a room with no windows, getting up only twice all day. The only times we were allowed to leave our seats was for our two rest room breaks, escorted by our officer of course. Lunches are an entire story in themselves. We were delighted with a vast selection of gourmet foods: cold sub. warm milk, hard cookie, and a soft apple. You may. if you wish, bring your own lunch. The students I was celled with did choose to bring their own lunches, a bucket of fried chicken and a fifth of gin. Yes. the officer knew they had the chicken. No. he never saw the gin. This just goes to show you that no matter what kind of punishment our administration gives out. the bad students will always be bad; and the good students will learn their lesson the first time.

KJqcp oGqgQ Students enjoy their school ACJVS. one of the best decisions I've ever made. When I was a sophomore. I had no idea where my future would lead me. But when representatives came to AHS to show slides about VO-ED, something caught my eye. I went to orientation and found myself very impressed. It was a place where people had pride in themselves and the school. People chose this school because of their interest, not because they were required to attend. I guess it could be described as a college prep school where you receive on-the-job training in a specialized field of your choice. I think this is why people bored with school go to VO-ED—because they are working on projects they enjoy while getting experience and a detailed education. I feel if you actually do the work instead of reading it from a book, you retain more because you learn from your mistakes, and are curious to see why things didn't work out as planned. VO-ED. one of the best decisions I ever made. That’s what Lori Dawson, a senior in Distributive Education class, had to say about VO-ED. But then, here is what Curtis Griffith, a junior in Machine Trades, feels. He doesn’t really like VO-ED for various reasons. He feels the student's attitudes are poor and that there is a bigger drug problem at VO-ED than at Bula. He also says that there is much freedom but maybe that's what's wrong with the students. They are trying to grow up too fast. The possibilities are great he exclaimed, but students don't take advantage of the opportunity.” Another friend of mine thinks bussing is a problem. He feels there are not enough busses, forcing the students to sit three to a seat and some, at times, standing. He likes the parking facilities, but doesn't like the idea of walking in the bad weather to another building for class. He feels that even though there is a lot of freedom, the teachers and principals strictly enforce the rules. For some people VO-ED is the answer especially when serious about particular trade. But for others. VO-ED classes may be right but the atmosphere may be wrong! Brenda Broad Being king of the group Vica. junior joe Fiaugher often kept busy with various things.

As I entered Ashtabula High School for the first time, nervous and scared. I was stared at by the upper classmen. Being a freshman isn’t easy, especially if you are shy. So our teachers decided what better way to perk up our first year in high school than to introduce us to a new program in English. This new program is called critical thinking, as any freshman can tell you. Vocabulary is the aspect in our lives that the teachers are trying to improve, so this is the main idea of this new The freshman English classes undergo a change of pace as they confront a new and different stylo of learning. The students had more re-sponsibility in what and how they learned while they were in their freshman English classes. course. By taking the time to read and study in class, we are able to recognize words that look strange to us. We complained about it at first, but after getting a pep talk from our teacher, we grew to understand its importance. My teacher. Mr. Mushrush. told me that this work is important mainly because it is well structured and it will enable me to do more work on my own. This program is a lot of fun! 1 enjoy working on my own. It makes me feel as if I am learning something without the help of others.

The two girls were also involved in Future Teachers of America which enables them to teach algebra they’ve learned to others. Husily working on their homework are juniors Rita Wells and Dennis Turner. Mr. Crane frequently gave his students class lime to l egin. il not finish their homework. Algebra II required much concentration and memorization. Doesn’t he look enthusiastic about math? During his four years here. Andrew Terry took Algebra I. geometry. Algebra II. and trigonometry to help prepare himself for college at Edinbom State University. He planned to become a math teacher. 76 Math ®GX30£D°G 80 OQQ 0(0(0 G3[p$ Student’s personal view of mathematics is revealed to everyone. Personally. I consider math one of my least favorite subjects. Decimals and fractions confuse me: division irritates me; and I hate factoring polynomials! Basically. I was especially annoyed when we learned something new in class and I couldn’t understand it. Another irritating fact was when I thought I understood. I’d go home and attempt to do the homework and discover that I couldn't remember how to do it! Addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication had ways of leaving me totally confused. Preparation for the high school math program began in junior high, where in eighth grade I was introduced to pre-algebra. At first I found it to be so difficult to understand and was very indecisive on whether to se- lect pre-algebra or Algebra I as a freshman. Being a college minded student. I with the help of my guidance counselors, chose Algebra I. I then advanced to geometry, which was definitely my worst year because I truly hated two-column deductible proofs. I couldn’t see any logic in memorizing all those postulates and theorems because I felt I wouldn’t need to know that for future reference. So I didn't really memorize them at all. Algebra II was especially hard to grasp since between it and Algebra I. I had to take Geometry. I chose those classes rather than several or business math because I knew that the more challenging classes would prepare me for college work in the future. Rita VVeJls Figuring out an equation is senior Diana Potts. Board work was an effective method teachers used because it allowed students to practice their problem-solving process, leam where they made their mistakes, and improve math skills. Have you ever seen students smiling while doing their algebra?

As a freshman I had the choice of taking general science or biology. 1 took biology because it fascinated me. Although most people are horrified at the thought. I found that I enjoyed the dissecting the most. We dissected fish, grasshoppers, starfish, crayfish, and worms. I took I.P.S. because I wanted a background for chemistry and physics. In chemistry we did a lot of experiments in the lab. It was fun to see the reactions among different chemicals. As a senior I took physics which gave me an idea as to what construction managers go through when planning a building. In the fall I went with my class to a physics demonstration at Cleveland State University. We were surprised to learn the many uses for physical science. For those who were more interested in the geological and weather aspects of science, there was earth science taught by Mr. Ranta. I wish I had gotten a chance to take this class, too. They studied the effects of weather and pollution and kept up on current information by subscribing to a science magazine.

Learning every trivial date for history or remembering the location of every banana republic in the world seems so unimportant, until you take a closer look at social studies today. American history is a class that all juniors, including me. are required to take. It is an important class because it teaches students what has happened in the past and lets us appreciate what we have today. History repeats itself. Mr. Luce once said to me. and by learning from our mistakes we can prevent making them again. Rich Mealle told me he likes Mr. Luce's history class because it is interesting and because Mr. Luce is Pretty crazy. Mr. Carr also employs a relaxed attitude in current history. Tom Carleton likes the class even though we have no homework or textbooks. In their place Mr. Carr uses activities such as buying stocks or discussion of world events. A popular class for sophomores and juniors is Mr. Deleone's world geography. I think it's a good way for us to learn about a world that is rapidly shrinking due to technology. Jerry Brady said. I like it 'cause Mr. D. is cool and it is a breeze. A different social studies class, which is popular among underclassmen, is human relations.

Mr. Mapes is not too sure either. He told us the first day. It’s very difficult because I had no guidelines. I’m creating a class, and I am somewhat puzzled as to which direction to go.” Sounds to me like he's not having too much trouble. We have to be in the Model United Nations, write a major paper, help with elections, and do lots and lots of reading. Mr. Mapes also wants us to become more aware of the world around you.

It sounds to me as if they are going to have lots of practice because Mr. Keenan told me that he's going to have them write a term paper, many different types of book reports, an original short story, and some poems. I guess they're going to be pretty busy. They don’t mind too much, though, jeanne Van Allen says. I enjoy English. It's hard work but fun. And Chuck Moore feels that it is A really good program.

Amy Hughes Languages 85 Industrial arts classes learn many creative techniques Many students go through their years of high school never really getting interested in anything. This might have happened to me if it hadn't been for Industrial Arts. The three areas of the program are the woodshop. printshop and the drafting room. I feel everyone should try to be creative, and I have found Industrial Arts is the greatest way for me to express my creative talents. In the wood shop, other students and I make different projects such as breadboxes. gun racks, and porch swings. When working with wood. I don't see that you have to be an artist or a brilliant person to make something. I just have to watch what I’m doing; follow directions: and listen to the instructors, who do know what they're talking about. It really gives me a great feeling of satisfaction once a project is completed and I can say I built it with my own hands. In the printshop I am involved with the printing of the Dart newspaper. The best part of the printshop is being able to work in the dark room. In there I am learning a skill that is really fun. Many students don't even know this school has a dark room, just let me say that it is a great experience and everyone should get involved with it. The drafting room is for those that like to draft and do architectural drawing. This is my favorite class because I love to draw. This year in architectural drawing I am making plans for my own house, and I will also build a scale model of the house I plan. The industrial arts program has really made my days at this school much happier and more fulfilling than I ever imagined they could be. Chuck DuFour Helping underclassman Tom Schupska with his project is Paul Martinez. They worked on many projects during the year which helped lead them to their career and also gave them the skill of working with different machines. Industrial Arts adviser and teacher Cary Pape explains to William Minton the procedure of cutting the appropriate length for his piece of wood. The correct pro| ortions of William's project was crucial to its outcome. 86 Vocational One of the few frvshmun females who chose Industrial Arts for one of her many classes is Nicole Deligianis.

I went into the game psyched up. ready to play hard-nosed football, and my teammates felt the same way. Somehow everything clicked as we went through pre-game practice. Nobody dropped a pass; backs were running hard: linemen were hitting. We were mentally prepared to play against Harbor, our cross-town rival. Even though we hadn't beaten them in ten years, this did not affect our team. We seniors had lost to them two years in a row in less than desirable weather conditions. So. we wanted to win this game badly; we wanted to end the jinx. Surprisingly, they played us tough in the first half, but we prevailed in the end. Our combination of running and passing prowess led our team to victory. I don't think we could have won without the help of the 12th man. the partisan crowd. The size of the crowd was tremendous! Never before have I seen such a large crowd, often standing three or four deep just outside the end zone. You can imagine; you've been at our home field before. I think I like the part of shaking the hands of Harbor players at the end of the game the best. It felt good to have won and know that I was a member of the team that broke Harbor's stranglehold over our football team.

I started to get some playing time half way through the season. The last four games I started and played the entire games. This finally made all the hard work and effort seem like a pleasure trip. I didn’t realize how much fun it would be to play on Friday nights under the lights. It was great! Knowing that I was going to start psyched me tremendously in practice and in games. The season was a little disappointirg to me because we didn’t win the NEC. but the feather in our cap was the City Series championship. We won it for the first time in nine years.

At first, going through a day of school and then an excruciating workout was hard to cope with. I adjusted soon; although it was still difficult. 1 could handle it. I finally realized that practice was worth all the sweat and pains because it was a commitment to the team. Between homework and practice, there was not much time for my family or friends. But that is the price I had to pay when I dedicated myself to football.

What the coaches said went. If a player gave them any trouble, they either had to run or leave. There were many new techniques I learned during the season like the right and the wrong ways of tackling, how to get better accuracy throwing the ball, and how to execute good fakes.

That was one thing our team didn’t accomplish very well. When certain incidents happened, like someone fumbling the ball, others would get all over his back, instead of telling him to shake it off. Over all I think our team goofed around too much. I hope we can become closer as a team in the following year. During our first game I felt confident we were going to win. I was very excited about the football season starting again and relieved that our games were beginning. As the game went on. life became more and more frustrating. We were losing by a large margin and there was not enough time to come back. Our season was not a very good one statistically, but we learned a lot. which will help us in our later years. At one time I didn’t think a freshman year meant very much. I'm glad I realized it did. because without it I would have a hard time later. 100 Freshman Football FOOTBALL Chuck Moore •OUR SEASON WAS NOT A VERY GOOD ONE STATISTICALLY.

The season started out in the middle of August and lasted until the beginning of October. We hoped to come out with a respectable record and felt that if things went our way. we could win many matches this year. Mr. Carr took us to the driving range almost every day. And if we didn't go there, we’d go to the putting green or just out together. We found this valuable experience. As Kevin Furman said. I feel that my game improves each time I go to the driving range or putting green. I think the general feeling was the same with all of us on the team: practice never hurts. When we didn’t know what we were going to concentrate on during a practice. Mr. Carr usually let us decide for ourselves. By letting us work on our own game, he was able to help us individually. Overall, the relationship between Mr. Carr and us players was one of happiness combined with a serious purpose that followed us throughout the season.

Golf 103 ILe f V III Cross country members train and condition have found that conditioning is the most important aspect of cross country. Your performance based strictly on how well and how fast a runner can whip his body into racing shape. It takes tremendous dedication and mental toughness to be a top notch runner. The only way a runner can improve is by running daily and putting in many miles. All the hard work, sweat, and sacrifice usually pay off in the end. In cross country meets, the people who come in the top places are usually the ones who work the hardest and are in top condition. They run year around — rain, sleet, or snow. Long distance running is different from sprinting. A good sprinter is more or less born with speed. One can work on his speed only to a point. As Nicole Deligianis crosses the finish line, she is cheered on by a few supporters. Nicole was one of the few girls who participated in cross country. But a long distance runner is made through work. I have learned many things from cross country that I would not have learned from just talking to someone who was in the sport before. I have learned that cross country is not just going out and jogging a few miles every day. Cross country running is running hard, sometimes nine or ten miles, and having to handle the aches and pains that occur while running. Cross country is different from any other sport I have been involved in. In most other sports, participants get a break from the action to rest. But when the gun goes off to signify the start of the race, there is no resting until I have crossed the finish line, some sometimes collapsing in complete exhaustion. The sound of the gun starts the race. Many meets started quickly with the runners bunched together but as the race went on. the runners spread out.

Everyone on the team was new. and we had never worked together as a team. We knew we had a lot of work cut out for us. Because we knew this, we learned to work ourselves harder each day to achieve our goal. Our practices were usually two hours long. We knew we were going to have a difficult time winning, but we made it. It became very hard for me to accept losing so much because I was not used to it. Losing leaves behind a sad feeling because 1 feel that I could have done better. There are several things that I think of after a game that I should have done during it. I remember I used to go home crying because 1 thought we could have beaten the team we had played, but we gave up or they became stronger. Losing became so frustrating, but we knew that once we started winning, we would have a more positive outlook. Being captain of the varsity team was a privilege. Although at times I wanted to quit, something told me to keep going. I wanted the team to be able to trust me and confide in me. My first mistake was that I was too lenient. If the team did not want to do something. I'd say. All right, but you are hurting only yourself.” I thought being captain was an easy job: I found out it was not. But at the end of the regular season. I was proud: I told myself that I had helped to represent our team and school.

Where did we get it? Three weeks ago we had been nine separate individuals. Now. we were a team. We had faced the pain, the agony, and the bruises together as we learned to perfect skills. As a group we had very few inner problems, and when we did. our coach was always there to help us through them. She encouraged us and believed in us which resulted in our confidence and success.

I have never really experienced anything else as far as crowds and fans go. There are many things the crowd reacts to. Good plays, good calls, bad plays, and bad calls, to name a few. I personally think that the greatest thing to hear is the reaction of the crowd after a slam dunk. When the crowd jumps up and starts yelling and clap- ping after a team member makes a dunk, there is no greater feeling. A slam is definitely a motivating factor for the team. It gives even greater momentum in the closing minutes of a very close game. My teammates and I feel that the crowd is very important in any given game and could even be considered the sixth man on our team. We always hope there will be so many fans that we have to set up chairs on the floor. We. as a team, thank our fans for all their support.

The fans looking on impatiently, wait in antici-potion to see what the outcome of this exciting game will be. But the team could not prevail. he reason I like basketball so much is that it is a sport that can help me physically and mentally. I have to be in good shape to run up and down the court for four quarters during a game. Plus. I have to use my head to know what play to run against the defense. Basketball can also be very rewarding. It requires a lot of patience, desire. and most of all. discipline. These three aspects of the game are very important. so I will succeed out on the court. But. the reason I like basketball the most is just being out on the court and hearing and feeling the yells of the crowds when the team scores or wins the game. Basketball can also help the school by bringing the student body to the games. Attendance shows that the school really supports the team and has spirit. As my teammate Albert Hughes says. Basketball is a great sport to lie in. It’s a sport that a lot of the students here should try. JV Basketball 115 Frosh work together ----------g for me because last year I sat the bench.

Without unity and togetherness. a team just falls apart and has no chance of being successful. Being successful to me is not just winning but doing what should be done when it is supposed to be done. Having played on the team for four years. I know the potential of this team and have had the first-hand experience of the success it has encountered. After last year, we were all told that we would not be a winning team again this year because we had lost two of our starters I feel our team has enough fight and enough pull to win again this year and prove that we are still good, that we can perform. In a game, supporting one another becomes one of the main keys to winning. If one member of the team is down, everyone else feels it. Relating to one another becomes very difficult. but we must remain calm so that we may read in to the passes and execute our plays correctly. As one of my teammates said. We can't win if we don’t work together.” This is totally true. If one of my teammates makes a mistake or misses a shot, everyone else has to make up for it. Someone else told me. When I'm out there and see one of my teammates go dowrn with an injury. I feel the pain she feels.” That is just another type of team unity we have. I find our team to be unique in the aspect of togetherness. We have a very sensitive team, and the players on it get thrown off course very easily. So we all just put together our sensitivities, and when something goes wrong among us. we talk it out. Last year that was one of our biggest problems; we were too sensitive and were not close enough to work together as we should have. But that has all changed. Girls’ Varsity Basketball 119 r@ The JV basketball team sticks together I feel that anxiety is harmful to a I team. A lot of external fear, as ill well as internal fear, will eventually make it very difficult to play a successful game. Because of the team effort that is put into the game, we must all know what we are doing, be alert, and look alive. We have to expect things quickly and keep our eye on the ball and the person being guarded. If we are nervous, we make mistakes and that costs the team. We have to be able to communicate with one another, and when we're nervous, we don't think straight. When we play in games, it is hard to control anxiety, and thinking quickly becomes very difficult because of the tension. I have noticed that sometimes getting rid of the ball fast is good, but other times results in a bad pass. Getting yelled at by the coach also makes us fear-bound. Realizing that he is trying only to help us improve by yelling is almost impossible, so we try not to make the same mistakes twice. Nervousness is harmful especially in a game. I know that when I am nervous in a game, the feeling seems to take me over. I tend to do poorly and make stupid mistakes. It is so hard for me at home games to keep calm because I know the people in the crowd. When I make a mistake. I feel really bad. I don't know how the Varsity team feels: I do know that we on the JV get nervous, but we still work together as a team. I really like this year's basketball season, compared to last year's. We get along a lot better personally and we have more faith in one another on the court. Working as a team helps to ease the tension. Coin in for a lay up.

Wrestlers lose weight by various methods I t seems it’s that time of year that II all wrestlers dread, losing weight! III Being a wrestler I know what it's like. To lose weight you must go for days without eating. There are also many other ways to go about losing weight. One is to spit weight off. Every year you can just look around the halls of Ashtabula and see a few wrestlers walking around with cups filled with their saliva. Wrestlers show full strength during the three (xrriods of ouch match. If .1 wrestler relaxes oven for one second, the opponent will take advantage and win. But to me the most difficult thing to do is stop eating As I am in the cafeteria. it’s the hardest thing to watch everyone else eat. At first my stomach starts to growl. Then I get really mad. Most wrestlers at this point get very nervous. One of the more popular ways to lose weight is to sit on the John, but this is usually a last-ditch method. To me the best way to lose weight is just good, old-fashioned working out and watching my foods. Unfortunately this is not always the case because I usually find myself struggling to make my weight class.

School was just out. and there I was at Station Field trying to teach freshmen and some upperclassmen the difference between their left and right feet. What a challenge! A few weeks of vacation and then it was on to band camp at Thiel College in Greenville. Pennsylvania. The camp is held to prepare for the matching season. Along with the hard work, came the thrill of initiating the freshman with such goodies as shaving cream and make-up and concluding with Senior Day. during which all underclassmen were controlled by the seniors. At the end of the week, we performed for our parents, demonstrating the two half time shows we had mastered in just five short days of intensive training. The football season was ushered in by the majestic performance of America the Beautiful. It was thrilling for me to share a part of the American heritage by playing music to honor our country. The highlight of my senior band year was the last home football game, traditionally known as senior night, during which each senior was presented a yellow rose by Mrs. Jack Hogle and Mrs. Dixie Hamilton. The band performed a halftime show written and directed by seniors. At the end of halftime, senior hats were placed on the field in the form of an A to symbolize the last time these seniors would march on Guarnieri Field.

Immediately after marching season, we began concert season. Nerve wracking tryouts and challenges determined our chair positions. Our music included works of Aaron Copland. Beethoven and Hadenwood. The winter concert was highlighted by a patriotic theme on Lincoln's birthday, including “Lincoln Portrait. Church choirs and our school choir joined with the band in a finale number—“The Battle Hymn of the Republic. We spent hours of practice making the concert season a memorable one for all of us. Fund raising was a big part of our band activities this year. Our trip to Virginia was expensive. With the support of our energetic band boosters. we became involved in obtaining pledges for a bowl-a-rama. This proved to be a fun event for bandsmen and their families. The holidays brought a pizza and pop sale, which was a lucrative project. Other activities included the Wake-a-thon. battle of the bands and a repeat bowl-a-rama. All of this fund raising was not easy, but we stuck together and worked hard for our big trip to Virginia. The year was climaxed with our journey to Williamsburg and Busch Gardens. All of our hard work really paid off at last. It was a great time—one not to be easily forgotten by any of us. Ruth llogle USOTtl One big thing about the band taking a trip is making money.

This is why the pep band and percussion ensemble can be so much fun. Of all the different activities in the band, pep band has to be my favorite It gives me a chance to be myself behind my favorite percussion instrument, the drum set. My only limitations seem to be my ability and my imagination. The music is mostly up-tempo (as is indicated by the title), and is sometimes very tiring, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I also really enjoy being in the Stage Band. It's a good feeling working seriously with a closely-knit group of people to accomplish something worthwhile. The music is great. I get to play a lot of jazz and even musical opportunities some rock once in a while. Mr. Martinez is very knowledgeable about jazz interpretation and does a great deal to help us out. I consider myself truly lucky to be in such a fine organization. Finally, last year when I was first asked to be a member of the Percussion Ensemble. I jumped at the chance. Being a drummer first and a human being second, I thought it was great that there was an organization devoted to my instrument. Even though we rehearsed only once a week for about six months, we did seem to accomplish quite a bit. We were able to perform at both the winter and the spring concerts, not to mention performing with the West Jr. High Band and at local churches.

Band Organizations 131 M@tantGO r]p)llii S)Sis Choir grows in enthusiasm and in numbers When I entered choir this year. I noticed a new flare. There was a motivation present that had not been there before. This was due to our new director. Although choir has only forty-eight members, a sense of pride is evident. Mrs. Martinez installed officers, and we are the ones who keep the choir running smoothly and in order. Our director arranged for several performances within the community as well as our annual performance at West. Of course, our first concert of the year was on December 13 at our own school. A new aspect of the choir is being displayed through several small ensembles within the choir. Although there are currently two ensembles. Mrs. Martinez had plans for several more. Along with the new ensembles, we have a new appearance in the choir. We women are sporting alternating black and gold robes, while the men are wearing black slacks and white shirts. The innovative force behind the choir is Mrs. Martinez, who has had much experience in teaching vocal music. She taught three years at Perkins High School in Sandusky. Ohio, before coming here. In the city she has taught for nine years at West and is now in her first year at the high school. When asked what she wants for the choir next year. Mrs. Martinez told me. I am hoping to build the choir up to at least seventy members. I think she'll succeed. Ruth Hogle Preparing for choir rehearsal is Beth Headman.

It didn't take much convincing. All my friends chided me into joining, pointing out how much fun I would have: getting out of classes and the camaraderie the club would produce. Eventually I learned it was that plus much more. The seniors in this school are a bunch of rowdies. The first meetings were full of chaos and unorganization. Officers were elected and I became the secretary, though I didn't have the slightest idea what I would be doing. Luckily. I didn't have to do anything: C.’ulhered together in mom 5 for an impromptu mooting are the girls of the Senior Women's Club. Senior Women were very active in school activities nobody else did either—for a while. Fortunately the time came to do something constructive. Organizing the Red Cross Blood Bank was a lot of fun. I was surprised at how it turned out. We also helped in the distribution of government cheese and in the making of baskets for the needy with Catholic Service League. I think that through these projects members realized that responsibility was an essential part of their lives. All of us felt good for doing a service to the community.

French, grammar, or some other subject that might have created a problem for them. One task that we faced was the planning and conducting of the induction ceremony that is held each spring for new members.

We spent many hours thinking up new ideas. and we finally came up with certain ones such as candy on the lockers or dynamite sticks that contained encouraging messages. It was worth every painstaking minute, though, when the team members showed their appreciation. Even though the season is history, our striving to get along as a squad and the hard work made my devotion to cheer even stronger. I will remember the good times I had cheering for a winning team.

They sold items such as hats, buttons and T-shirts to help support the athletes. find that Girl’s Athletic Association and Athletic Boosters have one thing in common: they raise money for the athletic program. Being a member of G.A.A.. 1 realized that raising money was not an easy task. We had several fund raisers that helped to support girls' sports. For instance, we sponsored a Volleyball Tournament, which included WFUN personnel, faculty members and Athletic Boosters. We also sold stationery. All the profits went to the girls’ teams. I do not know much about the Athletic Boosters, but the president. Mr. Robert Vincenzo said. The money raised for the athletes was made possible by sponsoring Professional Wrestling and by selling MGS football tickets. Although the Band Boosters have nothing to do with sports, they helped support the band members. Their fund raisers included the sales of Rex soap. Bowl-a-thon and a Spaghetti Supper. The profits help the band to buy new equipment. There are a lot of reasons why people join these organizations, mostly because they have children involved. But there are some parents that are involved who they do not have children in sports. These people get pleasure out of supporting the children because they want to see them enjoy themselves. I joined GAA because the girls’ sports need publicity. Shelia Neusome Boosters GAA 149 Hey S Tff y ttMs What a great thing to do with your friend B being in ski-ciub for three years not only has made me a better skier but also has made me appreciate the sport even more than 1 did in the past. I've been a skier off and on since about the age of four. My wonderful parents, who started me skiing at the young age. did not have to send encouragement my way since 1 enjoyed the sport so much. Staying in cottages annually for a week or two was one of my favorite things. Unfortunately as my family expanded and prices increased, no longer were we able to do this. Time went by fast, and soon I was in high school eagerly waiting to join Mr. Billy's organized ski club. Every year we’ve gone on Thursdays, which is nice since it's the end of the week and one tends to wake up tired after a hard evening skiing. This year things were different, though. We had one of those nice, big tour buses and we travelled up to Peek 'n Peak with Edgewood High's ski club. It's fun to go with another school because it expands my relationships with other people. I was fortunate enough to meet new ski friends. Not only were we able to ski one day a week for eight weeks but also we received one hour lessons each time we ventured to the slopes as a group. My experiences with ski club have turned out positive, and I urge students to join the club next year even if they've never skied. Look at Steve Arsulic and Andrew Terry: they're almost pros!

He had been ski club advisor for the past elov-en years. After a long night of skiing, club members are returning to the bus. Mr. Billy took roll with his pencil and pen to make sure all were present. Up. up and away. No. it's not a bird or a plane: it's Steve Arsulic jumping from one of the jumps at Peak-n-Peek. Steve had skied for four years. Ski Club 151 FTA £$ FTA puts in time and effort to make the organization work I am really impressed by the efforts students put into the organizations to which they belong. One. for instance, is Future Teachers of America (FTA). The members spend much time in preparation to teach both here and at the elementary schools. FTA is different from other organizations in that students must earn credits and have good grades to remain in the club. For example, the members must obtain credits by grading papers for teachers, teaching classes, and assisting teachers in any way possible. Even though I didn't join FTA. I've talked with many friends who have. Kim Brais felt. FTA has accomplished a lot in the past and plans to accomplish a lot more in the future. It's worthwhile. Because FTA is more challenging, it is also more rewarding. If any one ever wanted to join an organization with many rewards. FTA is it. Traci Wilcom 152 FTA An elementary teacher has paperwork as Sandy Pratt finds. Because Sandy enjoyed helping younger students learn, she knew FTA was for her. Assisting a teacher with her elementary students is Cheryl McFadden. Cheryl enjoyed helping students with problems and. therefore. learned from them. Teaching elementary students are Kim Bra is and Nancy Deligianis. Because FTA was a difficult organization to stay in. Kim and Nancy had to work hard FTA 153 Are they silling attentively? Some days meetings lasted for an hour or more, and these long meetings were full of many opinionated discussions In- members. Secretary Darlene Dyer looks around to see who is present. Attendance at meetings was very important, and most of the members attended regularly. Why is she smiling? In addition to being one of the best liked teachers. Mrs. Dismuke was also the adviser of the Black Culture Club for her fifteenth year. 154 BCC We strive £@r success« BCC members are encouraged to work diligently year long I Formed twenty years ago. the Black Culture Club was designed to help Black students work together with positive attitudes, emphasize the need for a good education. and above all study and learn about our past while improving our | future. For fifteen years Mrs. Emma Dismuke was the advisor of the B.C.C. I She felt the importance of the club - was for young people to maintain self I dignity and become worthy and productive citizens of our community. I joined because 1 felt 1 needed a F place where I could belong and I contribute, helping myself and my people. I am very sure many others felt the same way. too. My friend Frances Fleming joined because she wanted to be a part of something that would benefit herself as a Black student and felt she could contribute to the club. I wanted to learn something about my culture. junior Charles Henry told me. Although its name sounded as if it included only Blacks. Whites and other minorities were also welcomed and did join. With approximately fifty members there were, as in any club, those who worked diligently. We washed cars over the summer and sold M M's and ink pens to provide funds necessary for club activities. When asked why he wanted to hold such a responsible position, President Victor Chapman replied. I felt that I was a good man for the job since I am well liked by all my friends.” Victor formed planning, publicity, and cultural committees. One difference in membership was an invitation given to Harbor and West Jr. High Students. West students had to have permission from their parents which stated that they could come up to the high school for meetings. Many students took advantage of this opportunity.

BCC 155 C mitt mire clmlte Club experiences lifestyle of the Spanish As a third year Spanish student and a past president of the Spanish club, I felt obligated to rejoin this year. Another reason I joined was because of my interests in the Spanish language and culture, which brings me to the main objective of the club—to study the Spanish culture, its heritage in America and to speak the language outside of class. With approximately forty-five members, the club met every other Wednesday after school. Our advisors were Ms. Marva Bolivar and Mrs. Carolyn Stevenson. Either or both of them attended each meetings. The first Wednesday of each month was designated for officer’s meetings at which future field trips and other activities were planned. The club went to El Charrito restaurant in Geneva and to the Mercury Cinema in Cleveland to see a film about the popular Puerto Rican singing group. Menudo. In November the club ordered T-shirts and ink pens, both with Spanish sayings on them. At the Christmas party, we exchanged gifts, ate both Spanish and American foods, and saw a special movie that dealt with the art of constructing pinatas. When asked what she gained from her experience as president. Taunya Riley replied. I had a lot of responsibilities I’d never had before. I learned to take charge of a group and have fun doing it.” Rita Y Wells 156 Spanish Club After their Christmas feast. Spanish club members lake a breather. Members watched a filmstrip on making pinatas after their Christmas party. Trying to choose from a wide variety of Spanish foods are Dennis Turner and Darwin lloskin. Spanish club members served Spanish dishes at their Christmas party. In the front hull Spanish club members wait for their bus. They went to Cleveland to see a filmstrip of a Puerto Rican music group called Menudo. On a friend's lap ot a Spanish club meeting is Darla Fish. There were forty-five members in the club so members often had to share seats at meetings.

Having the US Post Office located directly across from our school is convenient. Because of this situation, our correspondence with ICP was quite easy. Shelia Newsome. Kraig Pyer. and Joe Savarise. We would like to thank Mrs. Wesley Eastman. Mr. Gerald Mapes. Carrie Housel. Mrs. Marion Hughes, and Mrs. Elaine Robinson for helping us out when things looked rather oesperate. We would also like to give a big thanks to Mrs. A.M. Imbrogno for writing all the hand written copy in the book: Shirley Colby for putting up with us on those deadline weeks: Sharon Brais. who was daring enough to drive staff members to the Bowling Green Yearbook Workshop; Mr. and Mrs. Robert Potts for the use of their car on the same trip: Janet Benson, who brightened up our deadline weeks: Chuck Craig. Paul Hogle and Mark Potts, who were kind enough to help us out on their brealcs: our own AHS Print Shop, which let us borrow a print of the school, which appears on the cover: Fred Brais for his advice on the taking of basketball pictures: Mr. Gephart and the entire faculty for being so understanding in our time of crisis: all those students who contributed their talents by writing copy in the sections which applied to them: and all of the understanding parents of staff members who put up with all the late hours it took to complete the production of this book. A very special thanks goes out to Art Taylor Studio for all the hard work they did and for putting up with our many emergencies. and to John Fowley, our ICP representative, for his many helpful hints and ideas that were greatly needed to make this book work. Photo credits go out to the Star Beacon for some of the photos on pages 94-97 and to Chuck Humel, Cleveland State University, for a photo on page 78. The 1983 Dart, Shifting Into Gear, received a first place award from both the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and the Great Lakes Interscholastic Press Association. 192 Colophon
