POST 1984 High School Atwood, IL 61913 Changing Times And A New Look The POST staff chose as its theme for the 1984 yearbook the idea of Changing Times. There are many changes in this year’s book and we hope that you enjoy the new look. A new publishing company, Josten’s American Yearbook, helped the staff. Another change is placing the ads on various pages throughout the book rather than only in the back. This gives our advertisers more visibility and makes it possible to offer a greater number of pictures. We appreciate the financial support of our advertisers and patrons and encourage everyone who reads this book to look at the ads and patronize those businesses. The format on most pages was designed to add balance and make the yearbook more enjoyable to read and look at. While our theme is mainly artistic. Changing Times describes well the world in which we live as well as the day to day lives of high school students. We hope you enjoy the 1984 POST. From the yearbook staff. F.ditors Terry Jones.

Freshmen and several new students had to find their way around the building and learn everyone’s names. Several new teachers also had to adapt to the way things run at AHHS. The AFS greeted foreign exchange student from Ecuador, Patty Artos. It seemed like a different school without the Class of 1983 around, but the new Seniors assumed their role of leadership.

Penny Dehart, President, Mike Sullender, Vice President, Kendra Freeman, Treasurer, and Rosanne Harshbarger, Secretary, along with advisors Mrs. Judy Gardner, Mrs. Connie England, Mrs. Nancy Maxedon, and Mrs. Letitia Farris held parties for Honor Roll students each quarter. They put up bulletin boards through the year to honor students for their achievements, sold cakes and sun catchers to raise money, and held a special luncheon to tap the students who would be inducted into NHS at the Honors Banquet. This year Sophomores also were initiated into NHS and will remain active through their Junior year along with the new Seniors who were inducted as Juniors this year.

V-Show The Music Department sponsored its annual Variety Show on Mar. 31 with the theme, This One’s for you. Rosanne Harshbarger and Mr. John Cox were M.C.’s. The show featured 20 acts with the Rajazz Band and the Junior High Choir as highlights. One dancing number featured Nancy and Joe Neira doing the new break dancing. Several students performed solo acts and showed great poise and talent. The Variety Show was directed by Miss Christine Janota. Pictured at the top of the page, Brian Plmore provides the beat.

AHHS Presents School Play On Apr. 11, the lights dimmed and the cast of the school play presented “Our Gal Sal”, this year’s choice selected by director, Mrs. Nancy Maxedon. The cast had prepared for several weeks and a dress rehearsal for the Junior High students and Senior Citizens had been presented that afternoon. Heidi Kauffman had the lead role of country girl Sally Skinner who returns to get reaquainted with her childhood sweetheart, Glenn Vandyne, played by David Weir. Sally overhears Glenn talking about her as a hick and gets even by acting like one. Terry Jones as Dexter Westbrooke provided the villain and Rosanne Harshbarger as Daisy Judkins with the help of a lot of stuffing got laughs merely by walking on stage. The play was well written and well presented. Student director was Tami Helton. Wendy Heinzelmann and Amy Dyer helped backstage and Michelle Baer applied the makeup. Pictured at right: Sonda Yost as Allison Vandyne and Heidi Kauffman as “Our Gal Sal” discuss Sally's plan to get even with Glenn.

The Prom was held on May 4, 1984, at the Ramada Inn at Champaign. The dinner began at 7 P.M. and everyone was dressed in formal attire. Terry Jones gave the welcoming address and Steve Yeakley thanked the Junior class on behalf of the Seniors. Jim Ponder gave thanks and everyone settled down to a dinner of swiss steak or turkey. About 122 students, faculty, alumni and guests attended the Prom. After the meal, the dance featuring the Artistics began. The theme of the Prom was “Hold on to Your Dreams” and anticipation arose as to who would be the King and Queen. Randy Long was selected as King and received a money clip and the opportunity to dance with the Queen in the first selection after the announcement. Tami Helton was chosen as Queen and was given a crown. Both seniors enjoyed the honor. Post Prom was held at Market Place Theater featuring the movie, “Jaws 3-D” A lot of work went into the Prom and the Junior Prom Committee was responsible for most of it. Dawn Dial was chairperson; Jeff Behrend, Terry Jones, Lori Emberton, and Jim Ponder served the class well. Sponsors were Mrs. Judy Gardner and Mrs. Nancy Maxedon. Pictured at right are Randy Long and Tami Melton, the seniors chosen as King and Queen of the Junior Senior Prom.

Student Council Cancels Classes Spring madness arrived early at AHHS as Student Council week reminded everyone how much fun school can be. Classes were delayed and canceled all week long for special assemblies and contests. The Junior class scored the most points and won the week-long competition. On Monday. Apr. 9, the Juniors had 70% participation on color day as red is their favorite color. Stephanie Chesnut and Wayne Bryson won the chop stick and breakfast cereal contest at noon. Tuesday arrived and the Juniors had the best percentage of students dressed for pajama day. The Freshmen won the jelly bean and whipped cream event as Bill Revell and Tonya Strohl found theirs first. The Juniors had the best percentages on Wednesday’s T-shirt, crazy socks and high water pants day. Thursday’s sweat pants day, and Friday’s dress up day. During 6th Hour on Wednesday volleyball play between the classes was won by the Senior class. Coach Lyons officiated the matches. The Freshmen won the stuff-a-car contest as they crunched 22 students into Lori Emberton’s car. The Juniors won both tug-of-war contests on Thursday, and an assembly conceled Third Hour. Brian Elmore 46 and Rick Gabbard got the most Daisies on Eriday. Pictured at left: the Senior Class volleyball team wins the competition against the Sophomores.

By the time it was over everyone felt and looked like drowned rats. After a long and dry summer, the heavens opened on Oct. 18 and never closed until Oct. 21 by which time Atwood, Hammond, and the surrounding areas had received over seven inches of rain. All this was needed, but it had to happen on Homecoming week, spoiling many of the planned, traditional activities. The Juniors and Seniors built floats, the Rajah Moms offered prize money as well as expenses to help pay for the floats, but no one got to see them. The Seniors won the competition. The rain caused the bonfire and the parade to be cancelled. It was pouring through much of the game on Friday night, but many fans braved the weather only to see the Rajahs lose to the Bement Bulldogs. The fans showed a lot of spirit that night and their effort was appreciated by the team. By Saturday night the rain had ended and the dance was the one part of Homecoming that wasn’t wet. J.R. Cornwell crowned Debbie Strohl as queen. Julie Cornwell, Beth Chenoweth, Steve Yeakley and Ronnie Darby were royal attendants. Freshman attendants were Jackie Loy and Tim Dunn; Sophomores were Paula Chenoweth and Phillip Reed. The Juniors were represented by Alana Heit and Jeff Behrend. Senior attendants were Billie Sanders and David Dallas. Flower girl was Marisa Hayes and crown bearer Marty Seitz. The band was Slipstream for the occasion. Even though most of Homecoming was rainy, the students at AHHS let their spirit show. There may have been better Homecomings, but this one pulled the students together and they showed their pride whole heartedly. £ Spirits Below: the Junior class float. Bottom: Coach Lyons leads the fighting Rajahs in their “Spirit yell” during the Friday afternoon pep assembly. The rain may have dampened some hopes, but the team showed their spirit by giving the student body the “uncensored' version. Among many alumni returning for the Grand March, Steve Helton, Class of 83, served as Master of Ceremonies. (Pictured above) Above left, Tonya Strohl, freshman, decorates the main entrance to the school. The cheerleaders had the main hall decked out for Friday. Pictured at left, the Senior class float. Below, Mr. Jerry Newlin, Student Council Advisor, passes out the ballots for King and Queen at noon in the office. This was the first time students were expected to show responsibility for voting rather than having the ballots taken around to classes. Homecoming — 1983 In spite of the rain, the Grand March and coronation were a great success. At right. King J.R. Cornwell crowns Queen Debbie Strohl. Although the traditional bonfire and parade were cancelled, the school enjoyed a pep assembly Friday afternoon, Oct. 21 before the big game. The cheerleaders displayed their new uniforms.

This year the seniors decided to vote for eleven different topics. The election was held in October to give the POST staff adequate time to get pictures of the winners before the December 1 deadline for the yearbook. Each senior was given the chance to vote for one boy and one girl in each area with the winners selected in the order of importance: Most Likely to Succeed, Most Athletic, Most Musical, Most Masculine and Most Feminine, Most Flirtatious, Best Personality, Most School Spirit, Most Talkative, Class Clowns, Class Klutzes, and Most Likely to ?????. Once a student won a category, he or she was eliminated from the following areas. The winners are pictured on these and the following pages. As with any student election, there is an attitude of favoritism toward friends and we have taken the outcome with tongue in cheek. We hope no one will be offended or hurt by the decision of the class. Remember that someone else might have won the category if they had not been eliminated by winning a previous area. Class History Freshmen As freshmen in high school we were excited, yet we didn't know what we were in for. We were all thrilled as our football team won the State Championship and the Basketball team made it to the Sweet Sixteen. Our Flomecoming attendants were Debbie Strohl and J.R. Cornwell. To make money toward our prom and senior trip we sold popcorn. As the year came to an end we all enjoyed the many activities during Student Council week. We tried hard, but could not out-do the upperclassmen. Sophomores Our sophomore year was highlighted by reaching the goal of our class rings and drivers licenses. Our Homecoming attendants were Beth Chenoweth and Mike Sullender. We sold cookbooks and candy bars as our money making projects and some students picked up corn after harvest for extra bucks.

The big year finally arrived and we found ourselves the leaders instead of the followers. All the things we looked forward to achieving now had only one year in which to be accomplished. The Senior trip loomed ever closer and in a panic, we started selling chili dogs at noon hour and cheese and sausage to raise the S4000 we still needed to go to Washington, D.C. Homecoming was a Senior event with Queen Debbie Strohl and King JR Cornwell ruling over Grand March leaders Ronnie Darby, Beth Chenoweth, Steve Yeakley, and Julie Cornwell. Senior Attendants were David Dallas and Billie Sanders. The float we built won first place, but due to the rain, no one ever saw it. As spring drew nearer, we looked forward to prom and graduation, but those of us who planned to attend college were already busy working for the future even beyond June 1.

The itinerary included a stop at Gettysburg, Pa. to visit the site of the Civil War battle. The class visited the Capitol, the White House, the Monuments, the Smithsonian, and many other areas of interest. A visit to Mt. Vernon and participation in the wreath ceremony at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington Cemetery and a boat ride on the Potomac River were also highlights of the trip.

The Juniors, Class of ’85, began their final year as underclassmen. They sold magazines in the fall to finance the traditional Spring Prom. Committees were formed and began to meet in an effort to find a band, a location, and a way to make the occasion a specially memorable one. Homecoming was not as enjoyable as usual, so Prom became even more important in the minds of the Juniors. Class sponsors were Mrs. Judy Gardner and Mrs. Nancy Maxedon. 77 Juniors Receive Honors The Class of '85 has many students who earned awards at the annual Honors Night.

Bev McCullough Travis McEachern W- Bretta Randall Phil Reed Kamela Salyers Steve Stillabower 85 Sophomores — Class Of ’86 No longer Freshmen, the Class of ’86 began to enjoy High School. This year most students were excited about Driver’s Education and getting the treasured license. The Sophomores worked hard to recover the money they need for Prom and their Senior Trip. Bake sales, a car wash, dances with the help of Rod Long’s band, and selling food at the concession stand all helped the Sophomores make up for lost time. The class sold liquid soap in the second semester as the major fund-raiser for the year. Advisors were Mr. John Cox and Mr. Jerry Newlin.

While many students were still in bed on a cool Saturday morning, advisor Mr. Jerry Newlin and several Sophomores set up in the Ag shop and began washing cars. At noon the other advisor Mr. John Cox brought in pizza and the workers took a break to fuel up for the afternoon session. During the day over half the class participated, washing over twenty cars and netting the class over $100 in profit. Mr. Cox requested that the workers wax his car as well as wash it and the class put a shine on the finish that was bright enough to blind those who didn't have sunglasses. During breaks in the work, nearly everyone got involved in friendly water Tights. By the end of the day everyone looked like drowned rats. Several of the Sophomores took turns learning how to drive Mr. Cox’s four-speed transmission. The day went well except for one casualty. Tracey Mauck had a radio and cassette player to furnish some music. While moving a car, the radio bit the dust as it ended up under the wheels. The class and the driver of the car agreed to buy Tracey a new radio so the day ended up with everyone happy. Wendy Hodge gives directions to Carry Kearns on the correct way to vacuum Mr. Cox’s car.

Rod Long at center and Brian Elmore seated at the drums helped provide the music. The Sophomore class sponsored two dances in the Fall to add money to their treasury. The live band featured Rod Long and students from other schools as well as some graduates. They played a variety of rock tunes, some old and some new. The first dance was held on Saturday, Sept. 24, and many Grade School students were present at the invitation of the Sophomore class. The second dance was held after a basketball game and drew better attendance from the high school students. The class made over $200 profit since the band charged only a token fee. Chaperones were Mr. John Cox and Mr. Jerry Newlin. 90 Pictured at left are some of the Seniors at the Sophomore dance: Debbie Strohl, Billie Sanders, and Beth ( henoweth.
