The evaluation was part of the nationwide process initiated by the Department of Education to identify Exemplary Public Secondary Schools of the United States. ...,...l..u..,.l..n pg. 10 is gs?

T l 9 SFA was one of twenty Texas high schools nominated by the State Commissioner of Education, Raymon Bynum, for consideration by the federal agency for the honor. By mid-May, the number of schools still in the running for the designation had been whittled down to 100: two per state. The other Texas school that made it into the finals was Churchill HS of San Antonio. The Secondary School Recognition Program was set up to establish a network of schools showing exceptional progress in school effectiveness and student outcomes. Four hundred and fifty schools were initially nominated and 60 - 80 schools will receive final designation as exemplary high schools during the summer of 1983. f'lt's a real honor, said Principal Jacquelyn McGee. lt means that someone out there thinks we're doing a good job. Austin High was nominated for the program in large measure because of the innovative and effective programs implemented here, over the past several years, including the four-year English requirement, the attendance policy, the Honors Graduation Program and designation of certain courses as f'Honors classes. Also cited by McGee and the faculty as examples of Austin High's effectiveness were the refusal to use drug dogs because of questionable constitutional and ethical propriety, allowing an extra planningfgrading period for Language Arts teachers, and the PRIDE program which has attempted to respond to the need for counseling to curb chemical abuse by teenagers. Austin High is a school that works, and works welI, said journalism teacher Tom Prentice. lt's great that this school is an example of excellence for other schools in the country to emulate. The recognition program was implemented this yearjust as a federal commission authorized bythe Department of Education released a report called A Nation at Risky' which deplored decreasing standards in public education in general. Interestingly, a number of the Commission's recommendations, such as a four year English requirement and increased emphasis on academic coursework including foreign language, math, science and computer technology, have been implemented if not pioneered by Austin High in the decade since Jacquelyn McGee became principal. The categorization of American public education as mediocre by the national commission invested the federal department's secondary school recognition program with an added urgency and importance. The report said that the United States had committed an act of unthinking, unilateral educational disarmament and recom- mended that states and localities beef up academic programs and standards to stop the trend by students leaning away from taking academic classes and towards taking electives. Thus, the new recognition program was timely, and Austin High graduates could be proud that the school was named one of the top 100 in the nation, and next year's students looked forward to the possibility that the school would be one of the very finest schools in the country according to the Department of Education. A YEAR OF CHANGES Many changes took place over the course of a year that affected SFA students in different ways. A new Governor for Texas was elected in November, followed by a new Mayor in the April election, both of whom had new ways of running their office. Two SFA student deaths sparked a renewed, sharpened focus on teenage hardship licenses as well as DWI offenses. ln other ways, students' lives were effected by major events like a Nuclear Arms Freeze Resolution continued on page 11 mi 4-I Lori Anderson, freshman, gets books out of her Alicia Barrientos, Lexie Murray, Jeanne Blackmon locker. Locks were installed in all lockers. and Lisa Houston ride in the homecoming parade. Student deaths Three students died this year, two of them the result of a car accident and one of them dying from an aneurism. Tatum-Rodgers Sophomores Lana Tatum and Kathryn Rodgers were killed in a car accident at 9:36 p.m. Sept. 25. Tatum and Rodgers were riding in a topless Cheverolet Blazer driven by sophomore Craig Kidd, when Kidd allegedly lost control of the vehicle which then rolled into a ditch. The accident occurred at Mopac and Enfield on Winsted Lane. The girls were thrown from the blazer when it left the road. Tatum died on impact, while Rodgers died from massive internal injuries on the way to Brackenridge Hospital. Kidd and another passenger, Mary Buckholtz, were also treated at Brackenridge for their injuries, then released. Buckholtz was hospitalized for a broken foot and skull fractures. Principal Jacquelyn McGee was quoted in the !Maroon! as describing the accident as tragic but noting that it was something that could have happened to anybody. The sophomore class raised over S800 dollars for a scholarship fund in memory of the two girls. sadden friends Gonzales Graduating Senior Janette Gonzales, who was engaged to be married this summer, was declared officially dead on Friday, May 6, when tests failed to show brain activity. She had been connected to life support systems since her admittance to Brackenridge Hospi- tal on Thursday, after complaining of headaches. Thursday night, her father could not wake her so he called EMS and she was admitted to Brackenridge Hospital. Janette was a very hardworking student who worked to pass classes, and had a sweet disposition, said Assistant Principal Irma Novoa. She had been a member of the Honors Band and was a Red Jacket. A memorial was planned for her on the North Hill. Senior Janette Gonzales 10 Austin High Journal Jeep an awk- M , ' Q i Princess Grace died Sept. 14. The Administrators lowered the two flags in front of Austin High in memory of Lana Tatum and Kathryn Rodgers. Kathryn Rodgers, sophomore Lana Tatum, sophomore to less major events such as Cheerleader Tryouts and National Merit Finalists. SCHEDULES MAILED Student schedules were mailed during the first week of August so all necessary changes could be made before the first day of school. Principal Jacquelyn McGee felt this procedure worked well and stated in the Maroon I want to continue this program in the future. LOCKER LOCKS The final installation of combination locks was finished before the first day of school Aug. 24. This project had been postponed last year because of inadequate funding. ATTENDANCE POLICY A newly adopted district-wide attendance policy for high schools limited students' absences to ten per semester, but SFA, which piloted the ten-absence policy, was being used to pilot a more strict, eight-absence limit policy. Principal McGee stated that the attendance increased from 94.790 to 95.806 since the project started. The 1.1 A1 increase was a significant increase, McGee stated. In a Maroon interview, McGee said she advocates a five absence limit, but has not been able to obtain approval from the school board. She stated that a student can learn only when that student is in a classroom situation. HONORS GRADUATION Principal McGee implemented an Honors Graduation Program for students who want to pursue a more rigorous academic program. To graduate under the Honors Plan, astudent must earn 24 credits rather than the 21 units required for regular graduation. The program is designed to recognize students who took harder courses, yet maintained at least an A - average. Some specialized courses included in the program are Trigonometry, Physics, and Texas Studies. Students who completed this program received a diploma stating that the student graduated under the Honors Graduation Plan. Although some students and teachers were critical of the plan, McGee said that The goal of the Honors Graduation Program is to encourage students tc take more quality courses and to help prepare students for college. TARDY POLICY Another policy affecting students involved tardies. On a student's third, fourth, and fifth tardy, a detention card was filled out by the teacher, and forwarded to the appropriate Assistant Principal. The student would serve D-Hall each day until it was finished. Failure to serve D-Hall would result in doubling thetime not completed, and ifthe doubled time was not completed, the student would be automatically suspended. COLOR GUARDIRED JACKETS The Colorguard replaced the Red Jackets as SFA'S flag corps, now under the direction of Band Director Rosendo Sanchez, who feels it is easier to supervise the entire halftime show as one group. The Fied Jackets are now the school's pep squad and spirit raisers. Next year they will merge with the High Steppers and will be called the Red Jackets, but the new organization will be a dance team as well as a spirit squad. Eligibility for the Color Guard starts after a special spring semester training session. The merging of the High Steppers and Red continued on page 12 Jackets marks the end of Austin High's sponsorship of two girls' spirit organizations which occurred in the 1970s. Then, the Red Jackets did not wantto bea dance team but asufficient number of girls were interested in a dance team to warrant establishment of the High Steppers. Declining membership and interest in both organizations resulted in the merger of the groups by Principal McGee. PRIDE A new drug education program called Prevention and Remediation in Drug Education IPRIDEI was coordinated and led by chemistry teacher Leyla Cohlmia, who served both as campus and AISD coordinator. The program is to increase not only student and parental awareness about drugs, but also that of the community. 'tWe just want to let students know they have a right to say, 'I don't want that ldrugs or alcoholj. I can have a good time without it.', Cohlmia stated. The PTSA also held a meeting in March that was an informational program for teachers, students, and parents concerning drugs and their effects. PRlDEreplacedthe drugsoffcampus program of previous years which generated controversy because of the use of drug-sniffing dogs on two AISD campuses. FOOTBALL INCIDENT More than 200 students were evicted from the Austin-Crockett football game at Toney Burger Athletic Center Sept. 24 because of rude behavior. Sunset Valley police, who provide security for all the Burger Center activities, felt the conduct of SFA students was, as quoted in the !Maroon!, the rudest, worst-behaved they had ever encountered. During the following week, Principal Jacquelyn McGee made two announcements regarding the incident. In the first announcement, McGee appealed to students not to condone the inconsiderate behavior at football games. Reactions to the appeal included complaints from students who felt they were unfairly ejected from the stadium for standing in the bleachers. Ellie Noack, AISD Athletic Director, stated that there is no rule regulating standing in the bleachers during an athletic event. The actions leading up to the eviction were a parking lot fight involving an unidentified SFA student, and the yelling of obscenities to the Sunset Valley police from the students in the bleachers. While these actions have been known to occur before, the intensity with which they occurred apparently sparked the angered ejection by the police. McGee's second announcement apologized to innocent bystanders, and asked that students not participate in the rude and obnoxious actions of others. TYLENOL SCARE The Tylenol Scare hit the week of Sept. 27. Six people in Chicago died as a result of cyanide-laced Extra Strength Tylenol capsules. A thorough investigation left police with several leads, but no convictions. The incident triggered a general consumer drug scare. Manufacturers began tamper-proofing their products to ensure consumer protection. CANCELLED CONCERTS Several major concerts including one by Fleetwood Mac and two by the GoGo's were cancelled or rescheduled during the last months of 1982. continued on page 13 Austin PRIDE becomes 'ear' for listening By Julie Ivy PRIDE iPrevention and Remediation in Drug Educationj, helps SFA students become more aware ofdrug and alcohol abuse by bringing programs to Austin High, and by making literature on the subject available for student use. PRIDE presented the program Who Says I Can't Drink, this year. After the performance, the students divided up into smaller groups to discuss their own feelings about the play and about the topic of alcohol abuse. In November of 1982, PRIDE came to Austin High. For seven years there has been a CPDE program - iCrime Pre- vention!Drug EducationI, said PRIDE sponsor Leyla Cohlmia. When PRIDE was formed, the members decided what the PRIDE was going to do, said Ursala Alvarado, junior PRIDE member. Our decision was to be an 'ear' to anyone who wanted to talk about their problems, whether they were related to drugs or not, Alvarado said. There are five sponsors for PRIDE. Cohlmia, Claire Breihan, Sean McWhirter, Sandi Vinson, and Margaret Snyder-Kahn. C. Breihan and I have been involved for five years, Cohlmia said. PRIDE does not hold any set regular meetings. Rather, they meet when they feel there is a need. PRIDE members attended a Leadership Workshop at St. Micheal's Church in November of 1982. This workshop concerned listening skills as well as alcohol abuse education, Cohlmia said. ' We talked about listening tech- niques and went through a few skits in situations where we would be the listeners, Alcarado said. PRIDE is not a fund raising or- ganization, but they do care about people. Theywantto help students makethe responsible decision concerning chemicals, Cohlmia said. Don Overall met with Seniors to talk about Graduation announcements. Mayor McClellan was a guest speaker for Rosemary Morrow's Government class.

Reasons for the cancellations varied from a low number of ticket sales to sickness of different band members. Most of the concerts were postponed until they could be rescheduled to fit the performer's bookings. WRISTBANDS The Frank Erwin Center implemented a new plan to aid concert-ticket buyers. The administrators developed a plastic wristband to hold a person's place in line for ticket buying. This new program eliminated the overnight check-in and camp-out procedure. Rather than forming a line prior to the sell of tickets, people receive a wristband with a number on it enabling him to get in line of the morning of the ticket sale. Officials said the procedure ran very smoothly and they plan to continue it. BREZHNEV'S DEATH Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev died of a heart attack Nov. 10. The death came as ashock to Soviet citizens who had seen Brezhnev at a Red Square parade three days earlier, although the Soviet leader had been ill for some time. Brezhnev gave many contributions to his nation, such as two decades of relative governmental stability. He negotiated the SALT I and Il treaties to limit nuclear weapons, but also continued the Sovietpolicyofstifling Soviethuman rights activists and other dissidents. SHEFELMAN'S CARTOON SFA alumnus Daniel Shefelman, former cartoonist for the !Maroon!, and Cometand forthe Centennial Yearbook, had one of his political cartoons published in the Nov. 15 issue of Newsweek Magazine. BARNEY CLARK Barney Clark, the first man to receive a plastic heart, died after 112 days with the heart. The heart was invented by a doctor named Jarvik who gave his name to it. Clark volunteered to receive the heart, and had an operation Dec. 1 to put in the heart. Clark died Mar. 30 because of multiorgan deterioration. Doctors said the heart was still in excellent condition. HONOR ROLL RECEPTION Reception acknowledging honor roll students were held on Dec. 9 and 10. The freshman and sophomore achievers were honored the first day, and the juniors and seniors were honored the next. The reception was the administration's way of showing appreciation to these achievers. ROACH'S FIRE The house of Connie Roach and her two daughters, SFA senior Megan. and SFA freshman Courtenay, caught on fire the night of Nov. 22. The blaze was caused by an arsonist who was later apprehended and jailed. Many of their personal belongings were destroyed in the fire. A Club Foot benefit for the Roaches on Dec. 19 raised over one thousand dollars for the family. WINTER BREAKIFINALS Winter break came Dec. 18 through Jan. 3. Austin, which saw no snow this year in sharp contrast to the snowy winter of 1981-82, had a relatively mild winter. Final examinations were held Jan. 10, 11, and 12. Unlike the previous year when snow forced scheduling of exams, this year's finals were administered on schedule. continued on page 14 WI-lITE'S INAUGURATION Democrat Mark White was sworn in as Governor ofTexas on Jan. 18. White succeeded Bill Clements who was the first Republican Governor of Texas in 100 years. The Governor's lnaguaral Parade marched almost unaware of the rainy weather. The Budweiser Clydesdales came to march in the parade, but were not taken out of their trailers because of the rain. SENIOR MEETING A Senior meeting was held Feb. 3 to take cap and gown measurements for Graduation. The robes were delivered May 16. BOND ISSUE Austin voters passed a S210 million dollar bond package on Feb 5 which allocated money for elementary, junior high and high schools. The package included money for the construction of new schools, and renovations, improvements, and additions for existing schools. Austin HighwillreceiveS638,280fromthebonds. The money will go for a science lab ventilation system replacement plus it will provide for the addition of more exterior lights around the school and parking lot. CAPITOL FIRE A fire in the Lieutenant Governor's apartment in the Capitol Feb. 6 killed an overnight guest and did extensive damage to the 95 year old pink granite structure. Matt Hansen, a horse trainer for Lt. GovernorBitt Hobby's daughter Katherine, was killed in the blaze, which was caused by faulty electrical wiring in a television set. Six firefighters were injured while fighting the early Sunday morning fire that caused heavy smoke damage to several senators' offices, and to the Senate Chamber. Damage to the building was estimated at over half a million dollars, and the Legislature appropriated seven million dollars to repair and restore the Capitol. KU KLUX KLAN A near-riot occurred near the Capitol grounds Feb.19 when 30 Ku Klux Klan members paraded down Congress Avenue. The afternoon Klan march followed a morning march for Black Awareness Month. Trouble arose when anti-Klan supporters yelled obscenities and threw objects at the marching Klansmen. Several people, including four law enforcement officers, were injured in the melee, and 13 people demonstrators were arrested. Four hundred law enforcement officials were on duty to protect the 30 Klansmen, and were instructed not to make any arrests. Despite officials' precautions, violence broke out towards the end of the 40 minute march when Mexican-American community activist Paul Hernandez assaulted a policeman. The police felt this action warranted an arrest. Klansmen submittedarequesttotheCityCouncil for another march in June. Yet, while many Austinites don't want another rally, they feel the Klansmen ought to pay for their protection, which cost Austin taxpayers over 870,000 dollars. MERIT FINALISTS A record number of 17 National Merit Finalists were selected from Austin High in March. The students represent more than one third of the finalists from the AlSD. The organization was established to identify and honor academically able U.S. high school students, and to provide college scholarships to many of them. SFA finalists were continued on page 15 Au tin Sen. Lloyd Doggett spoke to students at the Homecoming assembly on Oct. 8.

The HRC is composed of students who share the common desire to promote positive relationships among diverse groups and faculty, Carroll said. Carroll has been the HRC sponsor for three years and enjoys a chance to work with students from all over the school, and meet people I wouIdn't meet in my class, she said. I like finding out what people are thinking about nonacademic mat- ters, Carroll added. The HRC suffered from nationwide budget cuts this year. Melinda Maldanado, senior HRC member said of the budget Cuts, It's very unfortunate, because it sets restrictions onthe numberofactivities the HRC can have. The HRC members attend several workshops throughout the year. Such topics covered in their meetings are peer pressure, alcohol and drugs, loneliness, dating, and competition. When the HRC discusses the topics of their meetings, they divide up into smaller groups where the members can feel more comfortable sharing their feelings. The members also act out skits depicting situations in which there's a conflict between the group pressures and their own feelings about what's right, Carroll said.

CULTURAL SHOWCASE The annual Cultural Showcase assembly was held Mar. 11. Acts ranged from Mexican dancers to the Steppers dancers. The assembly closed with several teachers dressed in outfits of different cultures, such as English teachers Sandi Brinkman in a hiking outfit, and Phyllis Rothgeb in cowboy chaps and garb, dancing to We Are Family by Sister Sledge. Human Relations Committee sponsor Anna Carroll said that the showcase culminated HRC activities for the year. The purpose of the showcase was to highlight the diverse cultural heritage of the students of Austin High SPRING BREAK Spring Break came Mar. 12 through Mar. 20. The week was for rest and relaxation for both students and teachers. When students arrived back at SFA on Mar. 21, they had only eight weeks left of the school year. CHEERLEADING TRYOUTS Cheerleader tryouts were held Mar. 24, after a special session of practices for the candidates. All four classes were allowed to attend the tryouts, and Associate Principal John Heath felt the behavior of the students was good. The 1983-84 cheerleaders who were chosen are JeffSanders, Suzanne Schulze, Cara Briggs, Krissy Looney, Amy Frances, Tammi Johnson, Janet Crouch, John Greenway, and Grace Benavides. They will be under the direction of sponsor Jean McMillan. DWIIHARDSHIP LICENSES A growing concern about minors restricted drivers' Iicenses increased drastically following the fatal car accident involving SFA students Lana Tatum and Katherine Rodgers. Legislators had been researching the subject for several years, and felt that the issuance of these kinds of licenses had become too lenient. Many teenagers received hardship licenses when no condition existed to warrant one. Legislators proposed to make these restricted licenses harder to obtain. The Texas Legislator passed a bill in April restriciting hardship licenses from students who have not completed a driverls education course. House changes in the original bill included abolishing the general welfare category which allowed parents to ask for a hardship for their child if there was a family need. The need for the license must be verified before the license is granted. In the case of economic or short-term emergencies, the Department of Public Safety can waive the training requirement, and issue a 60-day provisional emergency license. Another reason for the increased involvment for new legislative actions was the increased number of arrests made for Driving While intoxicated KDWIJ. In conjuntion with the awareness of fatal DWI accidents, the Austin American Statesman began publishing the names of persons arrested and charged with DWI. The Legislature also passed strict new DWI bills in April that instigated programs and punishments for offenders. One program implemented called Weekend Intervention Program fWlPl was an intensive treatment program for problem drinkers. Ten DWI continued on pg. 16 repeat offtenders were chosen from defendants in misdemeanor cases. In place of serving a jail term of the 30 days, the participants pay S200 for the program, lose their drivers' licenses, and remain on probation for two years. ln the program, the participants must spend one weekend in jail, and the four following weekends watching films and participating in group therapy. TRAVIS COUNTY JAIL The new Travis County Jail opening was delayed from six months to one year because of a faulty electronic security system. Inspectors from the Federal Bureau of Prisons recommended the delay until the security system is fixed. MAYOR FIACEICHICAGO The most controversial Mayor's race in U.S. history occurred in the Chicago race on Apr. 12. Democrat Harold Washington became the first Black mayor for Chicago, in a campaign that grew increasingly bitter. The primary issue seemed to be Washington's race. BASEBALL SUSPENSION Fifteen students were suspended on April 18 and 19 because of different levels of involvement with alcohol before the Austin High baseball game against Lanier, which was a school activity, said Assistant Principal Jack Kinkel. The suspensions were decided on by Kinkel and Associate Principal John Heath. Although drinking alcoholic beverages before athletic events has happened before, this was the worst case of studentsgettingdrunk,andSFAadministratorsfeIt the need to take some kind of action to prevent future episodes. Kinkel said that the students' actions had violated district rules prohibiting the consumption of alcohol during the school day, which is interpreted as beginning the morning before school until after the last school event the student attends. Kinkel contacted La Tapatia, the restaurant that served the students alcohol, and said he received a reasonable, accurate explanation. The restaurant said that the SFA students had come in with some older girls, and the students weren't checked because the restaurant thought that they were all together. After receiving this explanation, Kinkel ended the investigation. US EMBASSY BOMBING A terrorists bombing ofthe US Embassy in Beirut on Apr. 17 left 17 Americans dead, and over 40 injured. Moslem Holy War, a fundamentalist Moslem group, claimed responsibility for the explosion. President Fleagan, who attended memorial services for the victims in Washington on Apr. 24, called the incident a cowardly act by terrorists. SPRING THING The fourth annual Spring Thing was held Apr. 22, despite threatening weather conditions that had prevailed earlier that morning. Several activities, includingasoftballtournament,and mud-wrestling contests were highlight events. Four scheduled SFA bands performed at various times throughout the afternoon. A non-school band, the Big Boys, played from 4 until 4:15, when Associate Principal John Heath pulled the plug to the amplifiers. Heath cited the hour delay of the band's performance, and the fear of student injury due to the chaotic slamdancers. many students left the school grounds before then continued on page 17 The Spring Thing was officially over at 5, but A st ' h 'A , ,- Students listen to a speaker during a student council meeting. Student Council role is sometimes taken for granted The SFA student council plays an important role in students' lives, but, that role is sometimes taken for granted. The council sponsors the Spring Thing and the Ugly Man contest each Spring. They also sponsor school dances and candy sales throughout the year. The money that is raised is used to fund projects to help improve the school and help meet the goals of the student council, said Dan Alexander, Senior Spring Student Council President. Alexander said that some of the money raised would buy plaques to honor outstanding teachers. t The Student Council Representatives and alternate Representatives are elected by their sms L Wmwii if' Journalism teacher Tom Prentice dressed as a punk rocker for the Cultural Showcase assembly.

The representaives should communicate with their second period classmates and relay any suggestions to the student council during the next meeting. The student council gets the student body during each semester. They usually poll student activities and opinions on issues concerning the school, The student council proposed to paint a mural in the commons this year. Alexander said that the student council had the student body approval for the project, but ran into some disagreement with the school administration, The 1983 Spring Thing, aside from too many off-campus visitors, was a success according to Alexander.

Jeff Kelby won fourth place in state UIL diving competition as well as gained a qualifying score for All-American. ln tennis, both Mark Smith and Diana Dopson won in the state tennis finals in their respective divisions. Both Smith and Dopson were members of the winning Austin High tennis teams which won District honors this year. CITY COUNCILIMAYOR RACE In the local city council race, two close races resulted in run-off elections. The mayorial race ended in a run-off between Lowell Lebermann and Ron Mullen. Another run-off was between Mark Spaeth and George Humphrey for City Council Place 4. Charles Urdy was reelected to his Place 6 seat, as was John Trevino for Place 5. Newcomer Sally Shipman was elected to the Place 1. The April 30 run-offelection declared Ron Mullen the new mayor of Austin, with Mullen winning with a narrow victory over Lebermann. Spaeth also narrowly defeated Humphrey for the Place 4 seat. NUCLEAR FREEZE The United States House of Representatives adopted a nuclear freeze resolution May 4 by a 278-149 vote. Although many proponents felt the original freeze resolution had been weakened by amendments, others felt the symbolic importance had been preserved. The resolutions calls for a mutual, verifiable freeze on the testing, development, production and deployment of nuclear weapons and delivery systems by the United States and the Soviet Union. The amendments, which supporters of the President succeeded in attaching to the resolution, called for arms reductions within a specific time period following implementation of the freeze, a point that nuclear freeze advocates didn't dispute since their idea all along was that afreeze would be a first step toward arms reductions. Whiletheresolution was notbinding on President Reagan, it is intended to guide President Reagan in arms negotiations. ln other nuclear-related issues, the Roman Catholic Bishops of the United States approved a lengthy pastoral letter which called U.S. nuclear policy immoral and which also called for a nuclear weapons freeze. The Reagan administration had been bitterly critical of the Bishops' letter, which had gone through several drafts. One draft changed the word freeze to curbl' at Reagan's insistence, but the Bishops later voted to change it back to freeze The Congressional resolution and Bishops letter came at a time that the administration was trying to find a way to base the controversial MX nuclear missile which would have as many as ten nuclear warheads each. The administration was also in a standstill with the Soviets in nuclear arms negotiations in Europe on strategic and theatre nuclear forces. Controversy continued to swirl throughout Europe over the American decision to base Pershing ll and Cruise missiles in Europe to counter the Soviet advantage in Europe, although rough parity exists between the nuclear arsenals of the U.S. and U.S.S.R. overall. continued on page 18 EL SALVADORINICARAGUA Controversy swirled around the Reagan administration covert CIA support of guerillas in Honduras which were trying to overthrow the government of Sandinista-controlled Nicaragua. Congress had passed a law forbidding the CIA to provide the support to the guerillas, but Reagan persisted. Controversy also continued over U.S. aid to the government of El Salvador which had been embroiled in a civil war for more than four years. Although civilian deaths at the hands of the government-linked Hdeath squads had been reduced, human rights activists continued to criticize the Salvadoran government and American aid. The Salvadoran guerillas were receiving Soviet Military weapons while the Reagan adimistration was supplying arms to the Salvadoran government. Although Pope John Paul ll had, in a tumultuous visit to Central America early in the spring, called for negotiations to resolve the Salvadoran controversy and had called on the USSR and US to not intervene in Central America, the region seemed farther than ever from peace. TEACHER PAY RAISE Texas teachers continued to lobby hard in May for 2406 pay hike. However, prospects were dim since the Comptroller had reduced the projected amount of revenue by more than S2 billion, which meant that for teachers - and state employees - to get a raise, taxes would have to be increased. And the legislature didn't seem amenable to raising taxes. A mass statewide rally on May 21 at the capitol demonstrated teachers' determination that Governor White's campaign promise to raise salaries by 2406 would become reality. Under budget bills passed by mid-May by both the House and Senate, teachers would only receive step increases ranging from ODA, to 4M over two years. TEXAS TEXTBOOK PROCESS The legislature approved a bill which permits individuals who support adoption of textbooks to testify on behalf of those textbooks at the annual state textbook adoption hearings in August. Previous policy of the State Board of Education limited testimony to critics of the books and to the book publishers. Tyler gadflies Mel and Norma Gabler had made a cottage industry out of criticizing proposed textbooks which did not fit with the narrow, fundamentalist and conservative point of viewthey express. The new hearing procedure was spearheaded by a group called People for the American Way , a group founded to counter Rev. Jerry Falwell's Moral Majorityf' EXEMPLARY HIGH SCHOOLS Austin High was one ofthe2 high schoolsin Texas chosen by the Texas Education Agency to represent Texas in the Secondary School Recognition Program. The program was designed to recognize schools that show exceptional progress in effectiveness and student outcomes. An on-site visit on May 23, the day before undergraduate finals, plus an evaluation by a 15 member panel of educators will be the deciding factor in who's who in American high schools.

During the ceremonies the distinguished alumni, honored faculty, and the Maroon Society were recognized. Also, speeches were delivered from school officials and outstanding members of the student body, such as the Hall of Honor steering committee. The members of the audience were a varied group. Along with the present SFA student body, there were alumni dating back to Edmind P. Craven of the class of 1909. Former Mayor Carole McClellan was also there. Senior Talent Show The Senior Talent Show was held on Friday, May 13th this year. The show was loaded with talent, from Dinn Mann's ballet troup to the chorus of girls dancing to Beat lt. Tulio Browning and his band werethefirstto play. The band played a brilliant version of Dirty Deeds by ACXDC. Leyla Cohlmia, Eva Arce, and Brendan Kenny presented Barry Manilow's Copa Caban- na as the last act. Possibly the most popular act was the Beat lt chorus, which livened the crowd to an extremely high energy level. I liked the black girlsthat werethrashin' around, they looked pretty tough, replied Jeannie de Graffenreid. Spring Thing The morning of Spring Thing looked depressing, but by midday Spring Thing Task Force Chair, Cam Walton happily announced that the clouds had cleared and Spring Thing was on! At 2:00 students were let out and Spring Thing started. Admission was 50 cents. Differentclasses setup standsfilled withavariety of food, which was the first thing on most students minds. There werefajitas, watermelon, and chili. To make the carnival complete, for desert there was cotton candy, sundaes, and caramel apples. There was a car show, dunking booth, and watermelon eating contest. Mud wrestling, however, was the most popular. People really seemto enjoythe disgusting stuff, like mud wrestling, said Chris Clark, junior. Quite a variety of bands performed, including Shotglass,SuicideSociety,andTheWorking Class, whose members go to Austin High. Jim Palmer, junior, remarked, lt is an inspiration to see young people with such musical talents. The main attraction wasthelastbandto play,The Big Boys. The crowd anxiously waited for them to arrive, the preppies and the punks. There was quite a contrast in the dress and attitudes of these people. When the long-expected Big Boys finally started into their first number at 4:00 the crowd turned into an enthusiastic mass of slamdancers, typical of a Big Boys' concert. Soon, two Longhorn Security Guards, Steve Thompson and James Green, attempted to cool down the dancing. Chris Gates, a member of the band, defended the dancers. This is the stage, that's the dance floor, and these people are doing just what they want to, they're not going to hurt anyone. Associate Principal John Heath gavethe order to pull the plug at 4:15, using the excuse that the Big Boys started late and were supposed to play from 3-4 p.m. However, Spring Thing was scheduled to lastuntil5:O0 p.m.andtherewere no bandsallowed to play after the Big Boys. Flandy Biscuit Turnersaid that hewassorrythe band had to stop early. I really didn't think we would even play as long as we did, said Gates. i'The person that breaks that iso many people having funj up is the one who looks the fool, answered Biscuit. lt's a way to Entertainment is a temporary escape that allows students to get away from these thoughts, I wonder if I passed my Geometry test, Oh, no, my research paper is due Friday. Well, the weekend has come, and it is time to relax and enjoy yourself! Going to a movie can be relaxing and fun. It depends, of course, on what you go see. If you go see E.T. you won't be able to cry for a long while because your eyes will be dried up. If you go see Tootsie you won't be able to laugh for two months because your stomach will be in too much pain from laughing so hard. Listening to your favorite music, whether it is live or not, will always make you feel better. There is nothing like coming homefrom a long day at school and turning on that great album. Brendan Kerwick, junior, made this statement, When I'm in a bad mood listening to the Rolling Stones puts me in a good mood and if l'm already in a good mood The Stones put me in a better mood. John Mueller, freshman, of Suicide Society, replies, Listening to the Bad Brains is like getting a dose of optimistic energy which really keeps me going and keeps me from getting down about things. lt's refreshing. Some students prefer playing video games in order to get away from minor headaches. Gordon Kelley, junior, remarks, Video games are the best escape from the violence of the real world, at least until your money runs out! When asked how their weekends were spent, the following students answered: Allison Grant, junior, I enjoy going to Barton Springs, bike riding, and walking around sixth street looking in the stores. Kim Koerrner, freshman, My friends and I usually end up meeting at Tarryhouse Westwood Country Club, or the Lake and sit around sunbathing. Richard Dopson, freshman, I like to go water skiing on Lake Austin and I like to go tubing whenever I can. John King, junior, I like to party at the union. Earl Kinard, sophomore, I like to jog, watch T.V. at my womans house, eat, and PARTY ! Ivan Friedman, freshman, I like to walk around on the drag and sometimes go see movies. Wayne Corley, junior, I like to go to Cypress park by the lake with my friends. Pat Roach, sophomore, My favorite pastime is to skateboard down parking garages with a bunch of people.

EDlTOR'S NOTE: This article is based on a random survey of 116' SFA students which was taken in April. The students were randomly picked from the computer en- rollment printout and respondents ' anonymity was assured. Two hundred surveys were sent out, 116 returned and 84 not returned. The random sample was consistant with age, class, and racial demographics of the student body at large. by Trey Hailey According to a recent questionnaire, alcohol use and abuse remains prevalent at SFA, the majority of students favor greater restriction in obtaining hardship licenses, and most plan to attend college after high school. Despite the fact that the legislature raised the drinking age to 19 in September, 1981, the Maroon poll indicates that the regular use of alcohol has not decreased, but has slightly increased from 6706 in 1979 to 6806 in 1983. Of the students polled, 78V0 say that raising the drinking age hasn't made alcohol any more difficult to obtain. Almost half of SFA students become intoxicated at least once a month. Some 3106 get drunk monthly, 1506 get drunk weekly, and 106 daily. Forty-seven percent say they don't ever get drunk. MaroonlComet poll tallies up Although only 3206 saythey don't drink at all, some 9106 indicate that they are not pressured by their friends to drink. About half of SFA students say they can talk with their parents about sex, although 97M say that information about venereal disease should continue to be included in health textbooks. Seventy-five percent say that the government should not require pregnancy counseling agencies to inform the parents of teenagers when teenagers seek birth control. Although 7806 believe in God, only 3806 say that they worship regularly. Twenty-six percent favor a time for prayer during the school day. Some 6806 indicate support for greater restrictions in obtaining hardship driver's licenses. The response was most likely a reaction to a September 25 fatal automobile accident involving an SFA student with a hardship license. Concerning the attendance policy, 906 agree with the current limit of eight absences, 58M support the previous limit of ten absences, 506 say the limit should be reduced to five absences, and 27'V0 say that there should be no limit on absences. Almost 7006 of the students polled support the school board's decision to weigh grades in honor classes when computing grade point averages. About 8206 say they plan on going to college. Thirteen percent don't plan on going to college and 206 are undecided. Over 9106 oppose President Reagan's proposal to reduce the minimum wage for teenagers. While 4206 approve of Reagan as president, only 2206 indicated that they would re-elect him if a presidential election was held now. The school is roughly split over continued registration for the draft with 4706 favoring it and 5370 opposing it. The fear of nuclear war has somewhat subsided since last year when 8506 said they fear nuclear war to some extent. This year, about 77M indicate that they have some fear of a nuclear holocaust in the near future. Despite the decrease of tension among teens concerning the fear of nuclear war, SFA students support the nuclear freeze concept by three to one. Sixty percent say the Ku Klux Klan had no right to march in Austin. In the wake of two recent executions, SFA students are split over the issue of capital pun- ishment with 5306 favoring it and 45M opposing it. Some 4006 still favor the Equal Rights Amendment which failed to be ratified in 1982. The majority of students 444065 had no opinion. Squeal rule Who do you live with?

It is no worse than television. -Frode Lund, 12 tProt Nuclear Freeze fCont I believe we already have enough bombs to blow up whoever we want.

Big business corporations ,Soon Conn, 12 are controlling government.

I Mike's pictures cover the year l'm a self taught, learn along the way type of guy. That's what Mike Gomez said about himself. Mike, a senior, is head photographer of the Comet. He says. 'Ilt's fun telling people what to do, but it's also got a lot of responsibilities. Mainly, his responsibilities are making sure everything is covered. l've got to make sure every function in this school is covered adequately in order for it to get decent coverage in the Yearbook, he said. lt was in his sophomore year at Taylor H.S. that Mike started taking pictures. He told of his best friend who helped him in the beginning. He'd sneak me in there lthe photographer rooml to learn howto do it , he stated. That is how he learned most of his photography techniques. The rest he learned along the way. Mike saidthathelikestotake pictures ofnunique and awkward situations. His favorite thing to photograph is frisbee competition. I love getting out in the sun in my shorts and tennis shoes and taking pictures of all the different kinds of people who go there, he said. Mike has other things to do, too. He loves to ride his bike and listen to music. I like a lot of music, he said. Myfavorite bands are the Police and the Rolling Stones. Mike said that one third of the money he earns working at Dan McKlusky's Butchery, goes for concerts and music. Mike also has hopes of leaving the country. After l've found myself, I plan to to to Europe, preferably Ireland or Poland, until my money runs out, he said. Mike's great-grandmother came from Ireland and his grandmother would tell him stories about her mother and that country. He also said that he would like to start a revolution in Poland. Everyone has their own American dream, and mine is to kick the Soviets out of Poland. Life should be lived to its fullest, he stated. And there's know doubt, his will be. ,David Sanders 352 . . j VaIerie's interests include politics, law l've always been interested in politics, and I want to become a lawyer, explained the fall semester Student Council President, Valerie Castanon. As an underclassman, Valerie really got involved with the Student Council and was ajunior class officer. As her senior year came around, her friends urgently encouraged her to run for President of the Student Council. Thefall of '82 began with Valerie as president and Sue Patrick, the new sponsor. I expected the year to be totally different than the years before, said Valerie. We had a new sponsor, and the teachers were more strict on the council. It was a chalIenge. Valerie was most proud of the addition of the Safety Commission Committee, the Homecoming activities and the positive turnout of the Spring Thing hearings. The fall semester council got alot done for the student body, she said. Valerie is also a member ofthe National Hispanic Institute tNHll. This organization motivates Hispanic people of Austin to accept leadership within themselves. In the summer of '82, Valerie and the NHI worked with the Texas Legislature. ln her senior year, she took Street Law and Government and claimed those classes to be her favorite. She also took her second year of French and advises other students to take the course. Valerie applied to Standford University and the University of Texas in hopes of carrying out her plans of being a lawyer. I think she is fantastic because she's efficient and so nice and considerate. She is always there when I need her, said the first floor secretary, Diana Gaslin. Maybe that is why Valerie was Student of the Month in December. I was so surprisedg it was a total shock! she said of the honor. -Melanie DuPuy Jason 's running helps Jason Burton, senior, started cross country, track, and soccer his freshman year at Austin High. Along with the team sports, he has kept busy with activities in and out of school. As a member of the cross country team, Jason helped the team win first place in the South Texas region. He came in 34th in a statewide run, and was the second incoming Maroon. Perhaps Jason's running skills help his soccer playing. He has received valuable recognition for the sport. Last year he was one of the selected halfbacks to play for Austin's All Star Team at the end of the season. The team played a tournament in San Antonio and won. This year he holds the position of All District soccer player. Not only does Jason run for the sporting aspect, but he also runs the Community Service Committee of the Student Council. This committee creates community awareness. Burton supervises occasional State School visits and the canned food drive during the holiday track, soccer teams season. Mud wrestling at the Spring Thing is Burton's favorite contribution, for he came up with the brilliant idea and built the durable mudpit. Jason seems to find pleasure outside of school as well. He loves to cliff dive at local lakes, go snorkling in Hawii, and visit other countries such as Mexico, Japan, and parts of Europe. But his most interesting activities are either experimenting with new cereals or being a full-fledged member of the IBCA llmported Beer Consumers of Austinl. IBCA is a group of Austinites that not only taste test imported beer, but collect rare imported bottles, have open public parties and publish newsletters concerning the best and latest imported beer. In the future, Burton hopes to be accepted in the Plan ll program at the University of Texas where he wants to continue to play soccer. After college he has no idea what he is going to do except possibly be an Asparagus Farmer in Bulgaria. -Melanie DuPuy eatures Jim decides against being journalist Jim Dunn is efficient, dependable, well organized and he has a masterful command of the English language, said Tom Prentice, Maroon sponsor. Jim Dunn, senior, is editor of the Maroon. He has been in journalism off and on for the past five years. As editor, Jim decides what stories go in the paper and the format in which they are layed out. Prentice said, He's the best editor of the Maroon in my tenure. Being editor of the high school newspaper sort of runs in the family. Jim's older brother was editor of the Maroon for 80-81 and their father was also the editor of his high school newspaper. ln being in journalism these past few years, Jim has realized that it is not what he really wants as a career. I liked it at first, but now I have seen how some professionals work, and that they are overworked and underpaid, Jim said. Last summer Jim worked in the news room at KOKE radio station and got a first hand view. Jim said that the best thing about journalism is the writing practice and that it has made me be a little more agressive and a bit less shy. Prentice said, Jim possesses great wisdom, insight and character. Jim has written some extraordinary articles and some controversial columns. He is very proud ofthe story that he did last year on Malcom Bryce, an Austin High Student who was hit and killed by a train. Probably Jim's most controversial column was entitled Why I Wouldn't Goto War. He said, I like writing columns that will make people think. Besides the newspaper, Jim is also involved in Students For Political Awareness ISPAJ, and PRIDE. Although SPA has not been very active this year, last year they had a Foreign Policy Day, at which many political speakers like John Henry Faulk spoke. PRIDE is a program designed to give drug education to students in order for them to help others. Right now, Jim's plans are to go to college and get a degree in The Liberal Arts. He may go into teaching and then to Law School, and there is an outside chance for journalism. -Allison Cook Missy enjoyed her yearbook years Missy Hoggarty is the second person at SFA to be editor of the Comet for two years. She is also a member at large of the Hall of Honor, a member of Junior Historians and a member of AKH. She got into Journalism, because I thought it would be interesting, she said. She started as a freshman on the Comet staff and has moved her self up the ladder to editor. I like the yearbook because you keep it from yearto year, said Missy. When asked what she was most proud of in last year's Comet, she said, the whole book. It 's hard to think up ideas for it and when you get those ideas it's hard to decide which ones to use. I hope the ones we use are interesting to other people. I like the yearbook because you get a final product and hopefully one that other people enjoy. Probably the most important part of the yearbook isthecover. Missysaidthatshechoselast year's yearbook cover because we were beginning a video craze. I saw a picture and thought it would be neat with Comet coming down in all different colors. Editors are the people who have to come up with new and interesting ideas for the yearbook every year. Missy said that she oncethought that it would be neat to have an all picture yearbook, but I decided that it wouldn't be very helpful to us when we look back on it after several years. Missy is also the first high school student to be a member of the Travis County Historical Commission. When she applied, she was interested because she wanted to add a new perspective to my life. The main objective of the commission is to pick out old buildings and put markers on them. She says her immediate future plans are to pass all my classes. Then I will surely go to college, probably Texas Tech or A,8tM. Missy said that being editor has taught her lots. I would have never thought of what goes on behind the scenes, l've learned to put a book together. lt feels good when you see the final product. -Allison cook Q. --vwei Dan is into SPA and Student Council l've been interested in student government ever since the 7th grade, commented Dan Alexander, spring semester Student Council President. His first political office was Parliamentarian in the seventh grade, and he has held an office every year while at Austin High. I think the fall semester council has done an excellent job, said Dan. My expectations of the spring semester are high. The students on the cabinet are really top quality. Besides being involved with student council, Dan is an active member of Students for Political Awareness, lSPAj. Last year he was involved in planning the Foreign Policy Day and other major events. I never thought the club ISPAQ would get to be as big as it has, but with help from sponsors Tom Prentice and Booker Snell, it has gotten to be quite an organization, said Dan. Tabor McCallum, an Austin High graduate, got Dan interested in SPA when it started last year. With Dan's curiosity in current events he has enjoyed being a member of the club. In addition to the activities he is involved in, he still finds time to work out at the YMCA after school. He also is a basketball coach for six and seven year olds and refrees the sport. In his leasure time Dan enjoys basketball, running, tennis and water and snow skiing. After graduation, he would like to go into a career of engineering, then into law. -Kelly Doyle rf J ,.. 1 ,Ss . iii 31 M Ned sets high standards for himself I like trying everything, said Ned Sherman, freshman, so when sports came along I wanted to try as many as possible. And he is proficient in the many sports he is involved in. Sports are very important to me, he said. This he has proven with his competative involvement in soccer, baseball, basketball and tennis. He said basketball is the sport he enjoys and playsthe most. He played on the Austin High freshman basketball team and had the highest scoring average. Ned has been playing basketball since hewasfive years old. He said that he became interested in it after his home town team won the NCAA championship at 32 and O. Indiana had the best basketball team so everyone was hyped up about basketball. Among Ned's other interests are art, literature and journalism. He has written many articles forthe Maroon which advisor Tom Prentice commended him on. I like journalism because I like writing. l also get satisfaction from seeing the newspaper after it has been printed and seeing my name in print, said Ned. Ned's parents are both teachers, his mother teaches English at O' Henry Jr. High, and his father teaches law at UT. With the influence of two teachers in the family, Ned feels that academics are important. My parents always got good grades and they expect me to do well also, so I set high standards for myself. Characteristic of his ambitious nature are his plans for after high school. I want to go to college somewhere in the East and maybe study journalism or law and get into politics. But I want to continue to play sports. One of Ned's favorite pastimes is travelling, which he has done extensively with his family. When he was in the sixth grade he travelled to Egypt and Europe for six months. We went skiing in the French Alps and to see the pyramids in Egypt. We also took a train up the shore of the Nile Ftiver. We went to the Hoffbraeu House in Munich, Germany. It was wild, everyone was running around really drunk. Having been on the Honor roll every six weeks and being the highest scorer in basketball, Ned has shown that with a little effort, it is possible to be proficient in both sports and academics. -Allison Cook Sarah likes writing, being outdoors I love the outdoors, says Sarah England, freshman. I love anything to do with being outdoors. Sarah'sinterestsand hobbiesincludeswimming, camping, tubing, and hiking. She also enjoys many sports. Besides playing for the varsity soccer team, she has also been a member of basketball, volleyball, and track teams in the past. Sarah is also a writer. In fact, she has been writing all of her life. When I was nine years old, I wrote a book. It was a collection of short stories. Sarah is now writing for the Maroon, and is enjoying that, saying that she just likes the feeling of accomplishment. when l've written something that people may read. Sarah's goal in life is to marry a photographer, and write for National Geographic. She plans to attend a college in Colorado, but if she is confined to Texas, her choice is the University of Texas here in Austin. Sarah has also traveled across Mexico, and plans to go with her father to Australia some day. With all of her activities, one wonders where, or if, Sarah finds time for school work. Four A+ 's and two A 's quickly settle that question. Her curriculum is not exactly Mickey Mouse, either. Her classes include, Reporting, geometry, Spanish IV, and honors English. Sarah lives with her father, and she says that the has influenced me tremendously in my attraction to reading and to the outdoors. Journalism teacher Tom Prentice said, reguarding Sarah's future, that she has a very bright future in the Maroon, or in anything that involves writing or thinking. -Tom Selby X X Activities keep Brad busy Brad Manosevitz, a sophomore who has two jobs, is Spirit and Sportsmanship Chairman for Student Council, Vice President of the Industrial Arts Club and Co-Chairman of a Jewish Youth Group. One of his jobs is at the Erwin Center. He is in the distribution departmentwhich bringsupcupstothe floors and services the coke machines with syrup. His other job is with Austin Landscaping Design. l'My job is to go look at a house, draw what's already there, measure it and then draw what the people want to go there, like a spa, pool, shrubs, flowers, etc. Then We sub-contract someone else to actually do the landscaping, Brad said. As Spirit and Sportsmanship Chairman for Student Council, his main concern is to get the council members involved. At the meetings no one really gets members involved, so I wanted to do this so that I could talk to these people and get them involved. Manosevitz is Vice President ol the Industrial Arts Club. He said that the club is all but inactive. l'm trying to arrange a field trip to IBM and Trecor and I'm also researching a Kit Computer for IA. This fall, Brad organized a convention for members of the United Synagogue Youth Group, tUSYl in the Southwest region. About 150 people came from San Antonio, Houston, Dallas and EI Paso. This was just a meeting from one region. All the regions will meet later this year to discuss plans for the group and a pilgramage to Israel this summer. ln his spare time, which is very little, Manosevitz Hlovestinkerlng with electronics. He also plays the guitar and plays tennis and racquetball. Brad said that electronics have always interested him. He wants to be a biomedical engineer, to design and build bionics. There is an incredible amount of research going into it, Brad said. Brad said that the best thing about SFA is the staff. Withalittle respectyou can really befriendswith them. Any day of the week I can sit down at the staff table and be one of them. l'm really high on school involvement. -Sarah England Features Senior year best one for Erik Senior Erik Browning is best described as an all around athlete, having participated in cross country, track, and soccer during his four years at SFA. For the past three years he has lettered in all three events. I consider cross country my most important sport, Erik said. He has earned more awards in cross country than in any other sport. In district meets he placed third as a sophomore, second as a junior, and first as a senior. My senior year has been my best year, winning four races so far, he explained. Other than district titles, Erik placed fifth in the regionals, which include all of south Texas, and ranked tenth in state, making theSFA cross country team place sixth in state. He feels his success in cross country is due to his ability to endure long distances in running. The longer I run, the better I do, he stated. Erik took it to them inthe district meet where he easily won first place in the three mile race over open terrain. I usually hang back at the beginning of the race, but at thedistrict meet I stayed out in front the whole way and put 'em away in the last mile. Erik says he enjoys cross country because it makes you feel like you're doing something. It teaches you self discipline. He works out every morning at 6:45 and runs as much as ten miles at a time. How does he prepare mentally for long distance races? I think about what I'm going to do, he says, and then adds with a laugh, And before a race I always listen to heavy metal music: Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, or Black Sabbath. -Lisa Bartlett Courtenay has flair for originality It is hard to miss freshman Courtenay Roach walking through the halls. Her short black hair comes to a point that falls right between her eyes, her clothes are eye catching originals and her overall appearence is striking. Courtenay is a very fashion oriented girl who dresses in the punk rock fashion. When I look in my closet, I decide to wear this and this and this. I don't really plan out what I am going to wear, Courtenay said. Courtenay adds flair and originalityto her clothes by adding her own touch, such as throwing a hot pink cape over a totally black dress, or accessorising with bright jewelry. I like vintage clothing, explains Courtenay. I shop at Dressed to Kill, Henry Memrys and St. Vincent de Paul. In addition to her flair for fashion, Courtenay also models. A friend of mine had to do a project in their photography class, so I modeled for that. I also did a fashion show of several local designers called Beat the Dutch at Club Foot, explained Courtenay. When asked how she got interested in punk rock fashion, Courtenay said she mainly followed in her brother David's footsteps lDavid is a singer in a local Punk bandj. David and I are pretty close, added Courtenay. Aside from modeling and fashion, Courtenay likes music, Black Flag, the Germs and Big Boys are among some of her favorite groups. She also is on the SFA yearbook staff. Courtenay added that she would like to be a fashion designer or fashion merchandiser after she finishes school. -usa Bartlett Whitney likes comic strip best Whitney Ayres sophomore, is the Cartoonist for the Maroon. He has been drawing for a long time, since about the 4th or 5th grade, but he had not had anything published until this year. Along with astrip and an editorial cartoon in each issue, Whitney had a cartoon printed in The Deadly Planet. The strip in the Maroon is called Lucky. Whitney said that he got the idea of Lucky because, Mr. Prentice told me that I had to do a strip and so I thought of it at the last minute. He said that he likes doing the strip better than editorials. I like it better because it is an easier way to express something. It takes about three to four days to make a strip, he said. Whitney could not think of a favorite cartoon but said, I'II draw a cartoon that I like and that I think is really good, but I always think up one a week or so later that I like better. I like drawing because you get to take things lideasj and put them down so other people can see them. When I finish a cartoon, I either put them in a folder or wind up losing them. In his sparetime, Whitney playsthequitar, listens to music and draws. He used to play in a punk-rock band and he listens to some punk-rock, but mostly to Motor Head. Whitney said his future plans are to make some money. I may keep drawing but it depends on how my outlook changes. Tom Prentice, sponsor of the Maroon, said, Whitneyisdelightfullycreativein both artworkand world issues. I think he's going to provide the readers of the Maroon with excellent cartooning for the rest of his time at SFA. -Allison Cook Supria wants to be doctor, violinist Supria Sarma, sophomore, is second chair violinist for the SFA orchestra, fourth chair for the All City Orchestra, and plans to be a doctor later in her life. Supria became interested in music five years ago and started violin lessons during the fifth grade. At Joslin Sixth Grade Center, she was in her first orchestra and placed at first chair. When she went to O. Henry Jr. High School, Supria, at first chair, and the orchestra went to Washington, D.C. to win first place internationally. The Austin High Orchestra has gained a lot of talented people, and Supria is certainly one of them, said Corky Robinson, the SFA orchestra instructor. Now holding second chair, Supria feels that Austin High's orchestra has a lot of potential, but she sees the All City Orchestra as a very good orchestra that provides much more difficult music to practice and perform. This orchestra has three concerts a year in the Recital Hall at UT. This year Supria began the Honors Graduation Plan in hopes of being accepted at Harvard University in Boston. In college, she wants to study to be a doctor since she likes science courses, but would like to play in a small orchestra on the side. -Melanie DuPuy Tony began baseball career in Little League Tony Diggs, senior, has loved playing baseball since the age of seven, and his abilities show it. His baseball career began with Little League. I played in pee wee for one year, major leagues for four years, and Babe Ruth for three years. Tony started his Maroon baseball career as a freshman on the Junior Varsity team, but quickly advanced to Varsity his sophomore year. He has received a letter for three years in a row, he won the Honorable Mention District his sophomore year, and second team All District his junior year. Tony's participation in Varsity baseball has been outstanding. I have been lead-off hitter from my sophomore to my senior year, and so far this year I have batted a 367, he said. However, Tony's senior year has not all been good fortune. I was out the first of the season because of a knee operation when I tore the cartiledgef' But with the support of his fellow team-mates and the guidance of Coach Hancock, Tony was back on the field after missing only eight games. During his four years on the SFA baseball team, Tony and his friends have developed close friendships that have accented an already 'tteamwork team. Everyone works together as friends this year, not as 'superstarsi It is a real team effort. Because of our friendships we can point out each other's faults. Sometimes it really helps us out- we're like a family, nobody gets mad at each other. This team effort is what has kept Tony playing baseball all his life. Baseball is a sport that takes team effort in adu to play and win. Competition is my favorite way, he said. Tony feels his baseball career at Austin High is ideal except for the lack of publicity for the team. At football games everybody comesj' he said, but not too many people come to see us. We could really use some support. Tony has been offered baseball scholarships at both Texas Tech and Baylor University, but hasn't decided yet which to take. After that, he would like to go on to play professional baseball. -Missy Minter Marcus marches with Color Guard I'd rather be a doer rather than someone who just sits back and watches. Indeed, Marcus Meacham will never be mistaken for the passive type. Marcus Meacham, Sophomore, is one of the first males in the new, band-sponsored Color Guard which replaced the Red Jackets flag corps this year. Marcus also plays the saxophone in the Maroon band. As to why he chose to march with the Guard instead of the band he explains, Playing the saxophone, I get lost in the crowd. I wanted to bein the guard so that people could see me. He also had admired the precision of the flag and rifle corps from some of the eastern schools. Marcus does well in school and exhibits a particular interest in science and mathematics. I don't like doing something, and not know why it works. I have to know, he says. He plans one day to incorporate his natural curiosity for technology in a career. Marcus has a fascination for space travel and hopes one day to be an aerospace engineer. I want to be there when things happen, he says. I eventually want to make a breakthrough in engineering. Last summer he worked as a draftsman for the Public Utilities Commission. He has no plans as of yet for this summer, but hopes to work in a business environment where he can gain experience. -Trey Hailey FEHTUYES Alex receives scholarship for involvement The only way you can really enjoy high school is to get involved. And getting involved is what senior Alex Avila has done the past four years, I have received about twenty various awards in both debate and journalism combined. Journalism has always been my most visible activity, but I also participate strongly in other things. Alex is Assistant Editor in Chief of the Maroon Newspaper and Parliamentarian of the Student Council. But his participation in debate has taken 'hundreds of hours in and outside school'. I have the experiences that both activities have given to me. Debate, journalism, and Student Council have made me a more responsible person. Alex felt the work load of not only an active curricular life but also a quality academic career. l've been in advanced courses all four years and have, with a lot of hard work, maintained a grade point average between 89 and 901' Alex said that his grades would have been better if he hadn't participated in extracurricular activities. But I don't regret my participation in them, he stated. Alex's efforts in these activities have earned him UT's Texas Achievement award. This is a scholarship awarded to minority students with outstanding academic and extracurricular achievement. Alex will receive S1500 a year for up to five years at UT. -Missy Minter Unique job gives Jacob good experience Jacob Villarreal, senior, has a unique job. He is a butcher at Dan McKlusky's restaurant on Sixth Street, the only restaurant in Austin where the meat is cut to a customer's specific order. Jacob holds the position of head butcher and consequently is responsible for seeing that every steak is cut exactly to a customer's specification. He contended that butchering is not an easy job, You have to develop your own technique in order to be a good butcher. You also have to be accurate and quick because it is important to cut steaks right and get the food out fast. Maintaining the reputation of the restaurant is everybody's highest concern. Jacob says that he knows when he has lived up to his responsibilities each time people come up to me and compliment my steaks. It makes me feel really good. He says he works behind a counter in the dining room so customers really do have access to me and know I really am cutting exactly what they ordered. Jacob himself was trained to cut meat by four different managers. Now he is in charge of training all the new butchers. Besides developing a unique talent at Dan McKluskey's, Jacob has met many famous people there. The restaurant has served musical celebrities such as Christopher Cross, Flock of Seagulls, Split Enz, and Boston. Jacob says, I like working at Dan McKluskey's because the people are special to me and my job will help me in the future. I would like to own a restaurant someday and I think that working at Dan McKluskey's is a step in the right direction. -Missy Minter God gives Sonya needed initiative Senior Sonya Alexander is the pride of Grant Chapel, and African Episcopal Methodist church, that has been a major part of her life for 17 years. She belongs not only to the Youth Union and the Sunday School, but she is also the announcing clerk for the whole congregation. Occasionally, Sonya even plays the piano for the whole church assembly. She has taken piano lessons for nine years and is talented at it. Sonya transfered to Austin High from another Austin area high school because she believed that Austin High teaches you more about life and therefore I am better prepared to take on the obstacles in life because of my high school opportunities. Sonya has won two outstanding foreign language awards for Spanish and the Daughters of the American Revolution Good Citizenship Award. She has also set many goals for her life, such as being an anchorwoman for a major television network, and the church has put a great influence on those goals. She feels that she couIdn't have made it where I am today without putting God first. Sonya believes that as long as I put God first, he will help me achieve the rest of my pursuits. -Missy Minter in 19' , ,Q A, Aw 'L W' an cv W., Foreign exchange students bring world cultures The students of SFA are becoming in- ternationally united thanks to the growing popularity of the Foreign Exchange Student Program. Many students here that have come from countries as far away as Taiwan, Italy, Norway, Spain and Guyana. Jack Chen, sophomore, and his sister Bonnie, freshman, have lived in Taiwan, Brazil, and Bolivia before coming to the United States. They fluently speak Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, and English. We all speak many languages, but we speak Chinese at home because that is our first language, said Bonnie. Jack and Bonnie both said that living in these different countries has taught them a lot about different people and cultures. After arriving in Austin the Chen family opened the Peking Restaurant on Burnet Road. When they lived in Brazil and Bolivia, they owned imports stores. Born in Spain, Cesar Contreras, junior, came to Austin in September 1982 as part of an exchange program sponsored by Spanish Heritage QSHJ. In order for Cesar to come here to attend school he had to take many different kinds of tests. SH matched his personality as close as they could to the family he is staying with. Life in Spain for Cesar was centered around soccer. He played on a semi-pro soccer team for three years. I love the sport. l've played all my life, he said. Unfortunately, because of a UIL restricting the eligibility of a student playing on a varsity team to students who have lived in the district at least one year, Cesar is unable to play on the SFA varsity soccer team. With going into college when I get back I won't have enough time to play, he said. School life in the US is quite different from that in Spain. There, Cesar went to school from 9:00 to 11:30, took a two hour lunch break, and returned to school from 3:30 to 5:30. After going to public school, he attended a private school for an hour . fi: -wslf-'wifi M-an-j iw ..-- .. .. ...... css .... - specially to learn English. Everything is so different here. I've learned alot of new things from everybody, said Cesar. Gabriele Caruso, junior, is from the island of Sardinia off the western coast of Italy. He came to Americato learn English and experiencethe life and people, in school and society. In Italy, Gabriele enjoyed playing the flute twhich he did for three yearsj, windsurfing, waterskiing, and motorbike racing as well as rollerskating. He also participated in cross country racing, but it was outside of school, since Italian schools do not offer sports, and he is on the cross country team here which he says he enjoys a lot. Gabriele says that he likes all of his classes, but he finds English grammar difficult. Grammar is very difficult when you donit speak the language that well. He said it takes time, application, and much work to learn English. In Italy, school goes from 8:30 to 1:30 four days a week, and from 8:30 to 12:30 on Saturdays and another day jdepending on your schedulej for two weeks. Then for one week, school is held in the evenings from 2:30 to 7:30 pm. The classes are different every day, but they have the same weekly schedule. Gabriele said that America is everything he expected, but the feelings of American girls are not very romantic. He alsosaid, Ithink I can speak for all Italians when I say that we think America is a great country. The US is the fifth country that Natalie Mandal, senior, and her sister Luciana, junior, have lived in. Born in Georgetown, British Guyana, Natalie and Luciana are native Guyanans. However, their father is Indian and their mother is Hungarian. We're sort of a Indo-European family living in South America, said Natalie. They have also lived in Hungary, London, Canada, and Venezuela. They moved to Austin three years ago because their father received a Fulbright Scholarship in Latin American Studies at UT. After high school, Natalie plans to study pediatrics at UT, and Luciana would like to study al'Cl'lli8CflJl'8 at Rice in HOLISIOD. After living in Panama all her life, Zoraida Gaslin, senior, moved to Austin in June 1982. She came to live with her aunt and attend Austin High because, I wanted to be more prepared on English, she said. Zoraida has not done much travelling and said that Austin is the coldest place she has been. In Panama it's always summer, she commented. She plans to stay in the US until she goes to college, although she doesnlt know where or what she would like to study. For now Zoraida is content to go to school, listen to music, and talk on the telephone. Since I am new here, I haven't had time to do anything iworkl: or maybe l'm just lazy. When Zoraida arrived in the US she spoke only a little English. She said that in the beginning she had a little trouble communicating but, I got used to it. Before coming to the US Zoraida had been told what it was like and said, I wasn't surprised about it although there are many cultural differences between the two countries. Frode Lund, senior, came to Austin from Oslo, Norway, Frode has been a competitive diver for eight years. I came to Austin because there's a great diving place here, he said. I first became interested in diving when I used to go to the pool with my father and see the other divers, he said. Frode says he spends most of his time at school, diving practice, and doing his homework. Although he has not had much timefor anything else, the hard work has paid off. At diving competitions in San Antonio, Frode has won two first places, a second and a third place . Other sports Frode participates in are soccer, snowskiing, and waterskiing. When I was in Norway I went snowskiing every weekend. If I was not diving, I was skiing. After the school year ends he plans to return to Norway. There he will have to take one more year of school because he is not receiving credit for this Year- -Megan Roach Sarah England 3' Natalie Mandal, sen. and Luciana Mandal, jun. Gabrielle Caruso, junior Zoraida Gaslin, senior eatures Look-alikes cause confusion among students Six sets of twins have made life interesting and sometimes confusing for non-twin students and teachers. There are pros and cons of being a twin, explains Bradley McClellan, senior. lt's great in tennis because when we play doubles we know each others strong and weak points, but we have also grown up having to share everything. Playing tennis is one of the things that the McClellan twins, Bradley and Dudley do well. But when they are not involved in a sport, the two are studying, which is why they are at the top of the senior class. As for some of their hobbies, Dudley explains, We play a lot of sports for fun besides tennis, and l like reading books. Dudley plans to go to college after graduation: maybe the Air Force Academy, but the two plan to continue playing tennis. Another tennis-playing duo, Avery and Bradley Bengtson definitely stand out in the crowd with their blond hair, blue eyes, and six-foot-two builds. Nicknamed A and B by their friends, Avery and Bradley play almost every sport. I think being a twin has helped us in playing doubles in tennis, said Bradley. Both are four-year lettermen in tennis and are former tennis team captains.

A new tennis playing addition to Austin High is William and Richard Dopson, freshmen. The Dopson twins have been playing as a team for about ten years now and are currently ranked third in the state in doubles. The younger by five minutes, Richard says, i'We are pretty competitive in tennis and most thingsf' Both agreed that they do fight all the time. After high school, both plan to go to college, but have not decided whether or not to pursue careers in tennis. We do everything together: we have exactly the same classes, we both play golf, we both play the French horn in band, and we make the same grades, explained Brian Peterman, the elder twin by three minutes, in describing his relationship with his brother Anthony. Mr. Rosendo Sanchez, Band Director, described the Peterman twins by saying, They are brilliant boys. They are very competitive, and I feel this is good for both of them because it keeps their individual standards high and helps them achieve their goals. We are extremely competitive in everything we do, said Anthony. Because of their competitive attitude, the sophomore twins are making straight A's and doing great. Upon graduating from high school, both plan to go to college, but not necessarily the same college. Q. William and Richard Dopson, freshmen Scott and Sieve Conn, Seniors Kathy and Cindy Barbour, seniors, are the one set of female twins at Austin High this year. We both sing for the choir, we both have an interest in German, and we both are involved in drama, explained Kathy. We get along pretty well considering we are twins. It helps to know the other person will always be there. Cindy said, We share the same friends, and that makes it more difficult being a twin. Cindy has a special interest in drama and has directed several plays while at Austin High. Kathy has always been interested in veterinary medicine and is hoping to pursue a career in that field. I have a cat, and pets have always interested me, she said. Playing soccer and listening to music are the favorite hobbies of juniors Scott and Steve Conn. Scott described the kind of music they like as new wave punk. We have our differences, but we get along pretty well. At least we don't fight anymore, said Scott. Steve said, People do mix us up a lot, but once they have known us for about a year, they can tell the differences in appearances. Steve has began to have an interest in bicycle riding while Scott especially enjoys reading. They both plan to go to college, and Scott is thinking about a career in sociology while Steve is interested in a business career. -Ned Sherman fx .N 2 s I Q of-gf it Administrators work to upgrade quality of education by: Megan Roach Austin High Principal Jaquelyn McGee's primary function is to oversee the school's instructional program. This includes everything from interviewing and hiring staff members, to obtaining materials, equipment, supplies, and everything in between. McGee enjoys doing things and making decisions that she believes will make Austin High the best high school in the state. When it comes to dealing with people, those which disturb her most are thoughtless, inconsistent individuals and apathetic, unconcerned students. However, she says that most students at Austin High are great. McGee began a new attendance program this year, requiring that each student be absent no more than eight days. The eight day attendance program has proved successful, she says. If a student should exceed eight absences, then hefshe must go before a review board to see whether or not credit will be received for those classes in which absences were exceeded. When a change or new policy or rule is in need, McGee says that often a real fight is necessary. Other times, however, changes can be instituted more easily. Constant reviewing is necessary if the administration is serious about making changes to upgrade the quality of education for Austin High students. McGee's helper is Administrative Secretary Anne Dourte. She prepares teacher, administrative, and clerical payrolls, maintains various files and data, free lunch, personnel and student insurance, and workmanls compensation. Dourte also requests and releases substitutes, receives and screens visitors, and opens, sorts, and distributes the school mail. I enjoy my position here, she says. I respect Ms. McGee and the working conditions are excellent. She says, The teachers are always considerate and I consider them very professional people. Like any job, being associate principal has its ups and downs. I like working with the kids, said John Heath, Associate Principal. But I don't get to do it enough. One thing Heath dislikes is having to be a policeman. He says it's frustrating worrying about vandalism, stolen property, and rarely having a clue or being successful in catching anybody. The teachers are always considerate and I consider them very professional people. - Ann Dourte When asked how he would compare the behavior of students this year with that of past years, Heath said that In general, things have improved over the last ten years. Heath says that in the last ten to fifteen years, he has noticed an increase in the use of alcohol and a decrease in the use of drugs, especially among the young ladies. He also said that these days students don't seem to respect themselves or their parents as much as they used to. When in trouble, they seem to worry more about the consequences at school more than at home: it used to be the other way around. Overall, however, he says he thinks the kids are in good shape. Like any other administrative personnel, Heath has many responsibilities: only one of which is anything Ms. McGee wants me to do. His other duties are to serve as principal in McGee's absence, coordinate schedules and grade reports, write bulletins, and make up a master calender. To keep him busier still, Heath is responsible for curriculum development, calling in substitute teachers, making ad- ministration assignments for activity coverage, and doing the morning announcements. After Heath come Assistant Principals Clair Breihan, Jack Kinkle, and Irma Navoa. Breihan's main responsibilities are supervising student attendance by encouraging positive daily attendance in all classes , she penalizes unexcused absences, operates the mechanics of the Attendance Policy, and chairs the attendance committee meetings. Breihan says the most enjoyable part of her job is participating in the growing process which takes place in a person between 14 and 18. I love to see young human beings make positive progress. Breihan feels that the most difficult thing she deals with is the lack of support systems for students at the very time in their lives that they have increased choices to make. ln my opinion, teenagers are the most stressed age in an already stressful society. She believes that students are coping with things that have no established societal precedents. Jack Kinkel deals mostly with student discipline and behavior. The hardest thing about his job is making decisions. He says that, unless there is evidence, it's difficult to decide what is truth and what isn't. Kinkel says that what he likes best about his job is seeing a kid turn around. I like to see someone get their head on straight. , .5 2 A . gif I I La kiigg- ps. 1 Anne Dourte, Principal. nk.

I love my job, states Irma Novoa. Kids consider me a friend and depend on me for help. The paper pushing, or administrivia as she calls it, are the uninteresting but necessary dues Novoa must pay to be able to work with kids. Her duties around school range from supervising, observing and evaluating, or teaching , teachers to coordinating the special education department. She also acts as a counselor to students who have disciplinary problems. In the past, Novoa has taught English and art, and though she loved her classes, she gave them up to become an administrator and be able to deal with more kids. People don't consider administrators to be teachers, which they are. she said. They teach independence, problem-solving, and communication. Novoa dislikes policing students and the endless forms and deadlines, but says that these only fill a minute portion of her day. If a person could name one administrator in the school that has to deal with more paperwork than anyone else in the building, that name would probably be Bonnie McDonald, the school registrar. Some of her duties are to register and withdraw students, maintain permanent records cards for colleges, keep up with students' grade point averages IGPAI, and everything else from doing the honor roll to ranking the senior class, ordering diplomas, and making sure everything is ready for graduation. She must also evaluate transcripts of students' former schools and furnish transcripts to ex-Austin Highers for verification for employment. Anybody that ever needs anything about a former student has to come through this office, she stated. And these things are just a few of her responsibilities! Even though there is a ton of work to do, she says she likes her job because she is involved with students academically. The most hectic times of the year for her are during the beginning of the year, semester change, and at the end of the year. I prefer to stay organized on the work load, she said, although at times it seems impossible! McDonald says that one of the most interesting parts of her job is working with the foreign exchange students. This year we had so many different students from different countries. It's really interesting. McDonald has been working at Austin High for eight years as a part-time typist, a guidance clerk, and now as registrar, and loves it. I think SFA is a great school. The standards and administration both are just terrific. Pat Cherico is the Administrative Assistant, and like McDonald, has much to keep up with. Cherico is in charge of the custodians, locker assignments, textbook obligations, inventory, the coordination of the buying of machines and purchases for teachers, and maintaining the building and grounds such as cleaning and the use of facilities by outside groups. There is no routine, said Cherico. It's varied and that's what makes it interesting. Austin High and LBJ are the only two schools that have a person with her job. Usually it's the responsibility of the assistant principals.

She feels her job is always a challenge and she really likes the kids even though at times she must be brusque. I don't like being negative, she said, but it's part of the job. Novoa has ideas for better education. Irma Novoa has been a vice principal at Austin High for eight years. Before coming to Austin High she taught English for ten years in Laredo, Texas and Nealy, Nebraska. I felt I had a few good ideas which could impact more than just the kids that I taught says Novoa, explaining why she became an administrator instead of being a teacher. I saw myself and other teachers doing a lot of things that were kept within the confines of our classrooms, and I felt as an administrator I could have access to more teachers, time to share techniques to teach students better. She says her favorite part of her job is when a negative encounter with a student can be turned into a positive one by showing the student he can get a fair shake. ln her spare time she likes to sing in a choir.

Business offers more courses than just typing As you opened those double doors that led to the Business Department, probably the first sound that hit you was the clicking and bell-ringing of all the typewriters in the classrooms. Typing, although the most popular, is nowhere near all that the Business Department has to offer in the way of business courses. Other courses included Business Machines, Accounting, and Business Law. Shorthand is also usually offered, but this year there werenit enough students interested to keep that course alive. Freda Kline taught Recordkeeping, Business Machines, and all levels of Typing, including a senior renewal course which reviews seniors who have taken typing before to help them out in college. Recordkeeping was a helpful course which prepared the student for Accounting. Students learned to handle personal budgets, small wholesale figure sales, stock update, figure deductions from social security, and more. In Business Machines class, sstudents learned to use many different kinds of calculators. They learned to work with the ten key process fthe basic calculator no longer being madel, and how to use dictaphone, the mimeograph, and the thermofax. The dictaphone is a transcriber on which students listened to tapes and typed up what they heard. The mimeograph made stencils and dittos and f K W' . Debbie Roy works on a computer in her VOE Pre-Employment Lab. Accounting is one of the four or five major degrees, it's precise and it's a challenge. - Anne Walker students learned to run them off on machines. The thermofax, you ran a paper on which a picture is taken and the result is placed on ditto machines. 'iWe hope to advance Accounting and Business Machines classes by programming the work into computers, said Kline. In other business classes, Anne Walker taught Business Law, Accounting, and more Typing. Accounting was a one year course which prepared the student for college accounting and accounting related jobs. They learned to analyze business trends and profits were introduced to personal banking procedures, payroll, sales tax, debts, and much more. Accounting is one of the four or five major degrees, said Walker. it's precise and it's a challenge. Business Law lasted one semester and students learned to know and compare civil court laws such as legal rights and duties, contracts effecting everyday things, consumer protection, and phases of everyday street law. Next year, two new courses will have been added to the Business Department: Data Processing and Notetaking. Data Processing is designed to help students develop a basic understanding of data processing tools as used in business, with special emphasis given to computer terminology. Students learned to flow chart business applications, write simple programs, and will be exposed to computers and related careers. The department will be receiving four new computers for this class, which will also be used for the other business classes as well. Notetaking will deal with the processes and procedures of taking notes. This class will emphasize taking class notes, listening, and converting ideas expressed by others into capsule statements. It also teaches the recording of original writings and communication.

As well, the students receive academic credit and support from a sponsor at school. These courses include Distributive Education fDEl, Homemaking QHECE and CVAEI, Industrial Cooperative Training UCTJ, and Industrial Electronics QVICAI. Distributive Education How to act on the job and relating and selling to customers is the focal point of Distributive Education, taught by Sue Patrick. Students take the class for one period a day and then go to work for half a day, earning three credits and valuable on-the-job experience. Students usually study selling techniques such as behavior in the workplace and relating to customers to sell products, as well as fashion merchandising which includes buying clothes from wholesale to be sold in stores. Then, the students go on to work in clothes or food shops. Basically, good job attitudes are stressed, explains Patrick, such as honesty, trustworthiness, and integrity. ICT gives students an edge over others going into the job market after graduation. - John Harbour Patrick wil sometimes present a problem that could happen at work and get the class' immediate response to it. The class really keeps us on our toes, states senior Melinda Messer. Cooperatives - ICT John Harbour teaches the ICT section of the cooperative education program. Students are employed in a wide variety of fields, from jeweler to plumber to air conditioner mechanic. In class, they do assignments related to their jobs, as well as discuss becoming self-sufficient individuals. Topics such as budgeting money, safety, and business relationships are covered among others in the course. t'lCT gives students an edge over others going into the job market after graduation, says Harbour. t'Some of my students are earning an above-average salary as well. Academics-HECE Florence Thompson sponsors the homemaking division of the cooperatives program, which includes jobs mostly in food service and child care. Students spend time in class on units such as taxation and banking, as well as good grooming and job attitudes for the workplace. In addition, safety on the job is stressed as some students work around hazardous chemicals in dry cleaning stores or in a food service capacity requiring the use of dangerous implements. Students also learn from their managers and on-the-job experience. Insurance information, selecting an apartment or home, budgeting, and planning nutritious meals also are covered in the course. One could call it a crash-course in living, states Thompson. Academics-VICA A two-hour course is taught by Richard Sunbury which deals with the field of electronics. Individual projects by students, such as the student who is currently working on his own electric guitar, help acquaint them with the fundamentals and theories of electricity.

His counselor of course. Who does Anna talk to help settle personal problems with a teacher? Her counselor. And who is it that students go to for help concerning their college applications and recommendations? Their counselor. Helping students with these difficulties are only some of the duties performed by the class counselors. Each counselor deals with these and other problems daily. Norma Lovell, the Freshman counselor, began communication with her new students while they were still in junior high to make the job of orienting the incoming freshmen into the high school system somewhat easier. When asked what problems seemed the greatest with the new freshmen, counselor Lovell replied, social problems, problems with adapting to high school. To help the freshmen, Lovell organized an orientation for the incoming students. About a week into the school year all freshmen were called into the gymnasium and spoken to by Magee and Kinkle on the subject of school spirit. Lovell says that the freshmen have additional problems in that they have not had the maturing experiences that the older students have had. She says communication is another problem. Parents don't have good communication with high school students . To help remedy that problem Lovell frequently converses with the teacher and parents as well as students to work out any problems. Lovell's aims with the students are to help students adjust in each class room, and to teach we're hoping to make it better for them all the time. - Counselor Norma Lovell - them how to communicate with their teachers better. What was Lovell's favorite part of her job? Getting to know the students and working with them. lt's different each day, she said. Sophomore counselor, Margeret Kahn, feels that the most rewarding part of her job is, 'Doing personal counseling, seeing a student sort out a situation. Since last year her job has changed in a couple of ways, first The sophomores have gained maturity in the way they handle problems, and that makes my approach different, says Kahn. Since most sophomores were at SFA last year, they were already oriented into the system, so they didn't need some of the special attentions of last year. Sophomore Frank Shealy says, She is informative, humorous, and very helpful in many different areas. Besides helping me pick my classes she helps me make other decisions not only in my life at school but also at home. Mrs. Kahn got started in counseling when she was in college. As a senior in college she counseled the new freshmen in her dormitory. Later she taught elementary school for several years. After experiences with elementary school students she decided to become a professional counselor. After observing a need for it fCounselingl my desire to counsel became greater, explained Kahn.

W Gaylord Humberger, Junior class counselor - views his job as, Something that makes school more bearablef' The school needs counselors just to help things run more smoothly, says Humberger. He, as well as the other counselors, acts as a mediator between the three groups that concern school: staff, students, and parents, conferences with one or another group, or all three frequently in his office. He wants students to realize that his office is a place where they can talk openly without inhabitions. From the vantage point of a senior counselor the involvement and activities have been overwhelming. Williams checked the credits earned of each of 44 Academics her students before they graduated. Then, for those of her students who planned to go to college, she wrote and screened college recommendations. Explaining the college entrance exams and the 14 different achievement tests were only two other activities that filled Williams days. On top of these duties, she would sit down with her students and talk about their different college choices as well as talking about their personal problems. ln her spare time Williams acted as chairperson to the SFA scholarship committee.

My I Drivers Ed is a Key Elective by Catherine Arnold Driver s Education John Myers teaches the drivers education courses at Austin High which Include Drivers Theory and Behind-the-Wheel. lt fdrivers educationi is the most important course high school students will take, he says. They will use it every day of their ives Textbooks the handbook of the Texas Department of Public Safety, lectures, films, and guest speakers teach students the importance of defensive driving and behavior as well as the fundamental techniques of operating a vehicle. Mr Myers' stories help emphasize what the course is teaching states Greg Zumwalt, freshman. Myers once recounted a story of highway hypnosis, under which a driver in Houston wrecked into a diesel truck. Also, he tells how the drivers education car has been hit eight times while stopped. Through the course, l've become more conscious ofwhat l'm doing says Zumwalt. Myers dislikes the cost factor of Behind-the-Wheel, which is S100 but it will hopefully be lowered next year. Apathy in students is another problem. Students and parents don't realize the course's importance to a person's well being, he says He hopes that someday it will be a required course for graduation Electives are a large part of students' classloads at Austin High in fact a student must have at least 9 112 semesters of elective credit to graduate. Any course beyond the required ones are considered electives, but many fall under a special area in Austin High academics. However, a few fall under no other category than elective, and these are Drivers Theory and Behind the Wheel, Contemporary Health, and Management Internship Health Units on topics such as cardiovascular and venereal disease cancer, and diabetes, as well as current health happenings and discoveries are covered in Barbara Behne's Contemporary Health classes. Students consult news programs and papers for articles relating to current health trends It fdrlvers education! is the most important course high school students will take -John Myers Students spend a few weeks on sexuality, which lead into a childbirth unit that discusses alternative approaches such as the La Maze method and delivery of the child in the home. First aid is also taught and students spend a week becoming certified for CPR iCardiopulminary Resusitationl. Behne says that school officials are currently working on a program to require that all students become certified. Students are taught through lectures, movies, and discussions about health, and guest speakers give their first hand experience to the class. Also planned are field trips to locations such as the Blood Bank The class emphasizes things to do now to make the quality of life better in the long run, says Behne, and the consequences of poor health habits. Internship Management Internship is a program which gives students a chance to test out their interests in career fields. Sandy Perry and Cathy Cave sponsor the program which includes students from all Austin schools. They are placed in businesses specializing in areas such as engineering, accounting, medicine architecture, law, communication, and govern- ment Students go to the work-place for four days a week and stay there three hours, receiving no pay but credit and valuable experience. One day a week all the interns meet at the Austin Community College campus with the sponsors to discuss matters relating to their work.

The creative classes of course, among which are Piano classes, Art, Stage Band, and Orchestra classes too. Cheryl Jones teaches several piano classes. The most basic is Beginning Class piano. This class is open to any student who wishes to learn how to play the piano. . .the fundamentals of music are taught, she explained. Each student played songs geared to their own Ievel. Intermediate Class piano is the other class taught by Jones. Music theories are covered in this class as well as harmonization and transposition. The students learn to play a melody in one key, then they learn the chords to accompany it, and transpose them into different keys. says Jones. Robert Nash was an outstanding student. He told me the only music he ever played was on the radio. Robert was a true beginner, said Mrs. Jones, He has been an excellent student. Jo Anne Chang was also among Mrs. Jones' outstanding. Even though she lived in Africa for two years, she kept up her piano lessons. She has much talent and learns quickly, commented Mrs. Jones. As most teachers, one of her most favorite parts of teaching piano was getting to know the students and watching them develop their skills. Probably the most rewarding aspect of teaching music is to observe the musical progress by individuals , explained Mrs. Jones. The students learn to play a melody in one key, and then transpose them Cheryl Jones I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching both sections of class piano. It has been a challenge being that I am primarily a choral director and vocal instructor. This was Mrs. Jones' first year to teach at SFA as well as her first experience in teaching high school choir. Her plans for the future are to continue to teach music in some capacity. Mrs. Jones is also interested in singing with her husband's band, Nyte Spell, and says that it is possible that they might do a short tour this summer. Nancy Griffith taught most of the first semester art classes, but she took a leave-of-absence in December to have a baby. Bill Buckingham is the instructor who took over her job, and offered stained glass for the first time. The class lasted from Jan. 3 to the end of Feb. when Nancy Griffith returned. Since Bill Buckingham is a stained glass artist he decided to offer it to students during his stay. The students learn the process of assembling glass, how to plan the design cut and grind the glass, foil the lead, and how to do the final assemblage, explained Buckingham. I want to expose my students to all the different uses of glass, explained Buckingham about the goals for his students, I'To make them aware ofthe unending uses of glass as a creative medium. Whatever part I'm working on at the time is my favorite , commented Corky Robinson about his Stage band and orchestra classes. Stage band played several concerts in the 1982-1983 school year, the IBM birthday party, lunch times at school, and for UNICEF at Highland Mall. I want the students to learn to play the instrument so well that they will not give up playing when they graduate from high schools or college, explained Robinson, mostly I want the students to enjoy playing. Students learn by doing. The orchestra entered the contest for state Honor Orchestra 1983. They placed in the top ten high schools Orchestras in Texas, as well as preforming in a Christmas program and playing for the Caberet in February.

Probably the first thing one notices about the department are the several large octagonal paintings illustrating the foreign languages which appear directly beside the unmistakeable eye-catching heading of FOREIGN LANGUAGE. Behind the doors are students learning languages. Some students take a course to satisfy the college entrance requirement of two years. But other students will continue their foreign language for three and sometimes four years. Some hope to travel to a foreign country and live for a period of time, which wouIdn't be possible without the countless hours of study involved with learning a new language. The foreign languages offered to Austin High students are Spanish, Latin, French, and German. Russian had been offered in recent years, but due to the lack of student enrollment, was discontinued. Possibly the most popular foreign language offered at Austin High is Spanish, a class which emphasize the study of listening, reading, writing and spreaking skills. Every year, the Spanish students enter, the Foreign Language Festival, which is put on by the AISD, and the National Spanish Exam, said Spanish teacher Kenneth Gilliam. Gilliam believes it is important to take a foreign language because one should 'Abe able to communicate with people who speak only that second language. Another popular foreign language with Austin High students is Latin. The first year Latin students learn the basic forms and pronunciation of Latin words. They learn between 500 and 1,000 words, and simple grammatical structure of Latin words. Instead of just learning the language, she talks to us about stuff in Germany and culture, and just the way of life. -Kirsche Smith, 9th grade. Aside from the actual study of the Latin language, the students read stories about famous Romans and legends about Roman history, said Latin teacher Novella Wiley. The second year Latin students study advanced Latin grammar and learn to translate. They also read stories about influencial Roman poets, and Roman Literature. The Latin students participate in contests such as the AISD Language Festival and the Texas Junior Classical League Convention, Wiley said. Students also attend cultural events related to their classical studies. I especially enjoy sharing my travel experiences with m students, Wile said i German teacher Gisela Sterling helps Seniors Carter Breed and Jon Luckstead with their work.

Other students study their notes. language. They are sometimes required to do book reports on German literature, act out skits and make up dialogues. Y Y - The French students had a somewhat unusual year this year. Kathleen Mollberg, French instructor, was out on maternity leave from Thanksgiving until after Spring Break. They had substitute teacher Tim Maloney in Mollberg's place during her absence. Laura Vaselka, 9th grade, said of Maloney, he did a good job of being a substitute, but she's a better teacher. The French students enter three major contests each year, including the Concours, which is the National French Exam, and Mollberg said, we usually win. They also enter the Texas Foreign Language Symposium, and the district Foreign Language Festival. Mollberg said she likes to teach her classes animals and animal sounds. She also likes to teach The Little Prince to more advanced classes, which she refers to as Hthe greatest classic of French literature. 'tWe do more than just read out of the book, Vaselka said. We play games fin Frenchi, and sing Christmas carols fin Frenchj, so we're learning in a fun way, said Vaselka. Many people believe that German is a somewhat masculine language. But that doesn't seem to phase the German students. The first year German students learn basic German vocabulary and grammar. They also act out skits and make up their own dialogues in order to get more practice in conversation. The more advanced German students have a more intense study of the The German club usually travels to New Braunfels each November for the Wurstfest. This year, however, they were not allowed to go. In the future, the club will be every other year. Gisela Sterling, German teacher feels it is important for students to learn a foreign language, because, it is a sign of education, one learns more about one's own language. lf you go to a foreign country, you will always remain an outsider unless you speak the people's language, and there are better job opportunities, Sterling said. Kirsche Smith, 9th grade, decided to take German, because l have a lot of German in my family's background. Smith said of the German class, for one thing, instead of just learning the language, she talks to us about stuff in Germany and culture, and just the way of life. Contrary to popular belief, the study of a foreign language isn't always a painfully dull and boring experience. ln my Spanish class, Mr. Gilliam offers an entertaining break from difficult classwork by telling jokes and funny stories, said William Dopson, 9th grade Spanish student. This gives a positive atmosphere in what would be a humdrum course, Dopson said. Also, taking a foreign language helps me to understand English better, said Senior Latin student, Catherine Arnold. 50 Academics -mfWWw,, , I mWmwnwf,,,fM..,,..,n,.m. , all 5' ., ,V ickevr WMV I ' 4 , lx, V I wk .

Frau Sterling cherishes freedom I am lost for my home country. l have lived too long in the States where I cherish the freedom, says German teacher, Gisela Sterling. Sterling was born in Berlin, Germany. She has wonderful memories of Germany as a child, but frightening ones as a young adult. She was living in Germany during World War ll. Sterling came to the United States on Aug. 23, 1950, began teaching in the Spring of 1961, and has been teaching at Austin High since 1965. lt is important for students to learn a foreign language, she says, because, lt is a sign of education, one learns more about one's own language, if you go to a foreign country you will always remain an outsider unless you speak the people's language, and there are better job opportunities. Sterling feels it is rewarding to teach and get to know so many nice and intelligent young people. She doesn't plan on teaching forever, though, She wants to retire someday and work with her family's outdoor amusement ,1'V 'f 'V', Q 5 'I a a s , . 5, , Y! V .

They learned how to cook in Foods class, howto design and sewtheir own clothes in Sewing and Fashion Design classes, howto decorate their homes in Interior Design class, and they learned a bit about life in Independent and Family Living class. In Foods classes, taught by Mary Ruiz and Zelda Hunt, students learned to plan and prepare nutritious, attractive meals, studied the four food groups, compared various diets and food patterns, and learned comparison shopping - how to get the most for your food dollar. The students also had projects such as making breakfast for some classes and preparing a buffet luncheon for parents. For the luncheon, the students planned the menu, wrote the invitations, and bought, prepared, and served the food. I like helping students improve their own eating habits, said Ruiz. And I like teaching them skills they can use now and forever. Ruiz and Hunt agreed that the thing they liked least was working with students and the attitude that they only take this class so they can eat. Another useful class was Independent and Family Living taught by Rosemary Wieland. In this class students learned how to make decisions, how to deal with stress, the It flndependent and Family Livingj was a very informative class. We could talk a lot about different subjects like marriage, raising kids, etc. - Shannon Terry, junior difference between love and infatuation, family functions and life cycle, sex- stereotyping, family planning, financial plans, and how to deal with family crisis such as death, divorce, teenage pregnancies, al- coholism, and child abuse. l've learned howto deal with my problems, that they can be dealt with objectively, said Whit Adams, senior. The students had guest speakers who talked to them about things like sex and birth control. They also had a picnic in the classroom with the children in the Child Development Lab. After eating, they made puppets. It was a very informative class, said Shannon Terry, junior. We could talk a lot about different subjects like marraige, aging, raising kids, etc. We could voice our opinions. Wieland said that what she liked best about teaching was the students and the subject matter. It is such an important area, it affects everyone everyday of their life. In Fashion Design students studied clothing needs, influences on purchases, the elements and principles of design, comparison shopping and retail merchan- dising, careers in fashion, and much more. They learned about the many different kinds of fibers and fabrics and the best colors for certain designs or patterns. After designing something, they had to sew it. Many students had their work shown in the showcase on the second floor by the Homemaking area, and once each semester, the students put on a style show where they fwere able to show off their designs. 52 :f H I I Q iisl 2 --,,,,, as .,,,, I ...

PELE Child Care was a full year, two hour course taught by Doris Sanders and Anne Busby in which students were trained to be care-givers to pre-school children, and learned how to deal with chiIdren's behavior. For example, some children need more love and attention, whereas others need to be disciplined more so they learn to share and be fair about things. The students in PELE also to choose books to read to the children, come up with interesting art projects for them to do, and teach them games, music or science activities so they begin to develop everyday concepts and skills. Each week of school introduced a new theme to the children which was studied throughout that week. Themes included were insects, animals, colors, shapes, land, air, and water transportation, holidays, community helpers and much more. The children were taken on field trips, with the PELE students supervising to the Natural Science Center, the Texas Memorial Museum tto learn about dinosaursl, and to a downtown fire station. Other special days included birthdays, Christmas or Halloween parties, an Easter egg hunt at Deep Eddy Park, and a water day where the children, supervised by the students, did fence painting, foot painting, and played in a sprinkler with spray bottles. The Child Development class also taught by Sanders was a one semester class in which students learned about how to be a good parent, beginning at pregnancy throughout the child's youth. I enjoy this class because it helps me out at home, said Rudy Gonzales, senior. I learned I needed a lot of improving in being a parent and setting a good example. The students learned about raising children, giving them love and security, and how to set good examples fortheir own one day. They learned about childrens' needs and abilities, diets, sleeping habits, and health at different stages in life. I never really liked kids before, said senior Sonya Alexander. Now since I took this class, I can see what makes them tick and I can stimulate them and explore their interests. The students also had to come up with games which would improve and stimulate childrens' intellect and imagination. If I ever have kids or have to take care of kids, I can be a better caregiver now. This has fully prepared me, Alexander concluded. Busby likes children, students Hunter Firchow tackles a fudgesickle.

Julie Ivy Industrial Arts offers new and different skills for students Industrial Arts offers opportuities for students to learn skills other than those academically orientied. Mr. Bartlett's a great teacher , says Jacob, an advanced photography student. He doesn't just give you an assignment and expect you to do it, he goes through every step to insure excellent quality. Austin High is the only school in the district that teaches photography in the arts department. The classes range from black 8t white to color prints. Students learn to use a variety of photography machines including enlargers and film processors. Students practice techniques for fashion, portraits, legal, art, and advertising photography. The most advanced course provides an opportunity for students to experience in depth activities relative to many photographic careers, Careers in fashion or art, says Floy Bartlett. I enjoy working with young people and seeing them be successful and teaching physical and mental skills and seeing the development and progress of a student, says Roy Bartlett. Bobby Gober developed a project in his Electricity class that demonstrated the electrical process of using different pitched sounds to produce different colors. With his I enjoy helping them put two and two together to get four. Bartlett project he placed in a city wide contest which sent him to the statewide Industrial Art Contest in which he placed first and Best in State. Chris Bieter also won first place in the Electricity contest. Mr. Avery, the Electricity teacher, teaches, basic information about the nature and laws of electricity. Mr. Avery's Drafting classes teach Basic knowledge and equipment use. The more advanced classes teach lettering, graphic communication knowledge, and the Architecture classes give students an opportunity to design and draw a full scale house with working drawings. In the drafting classes students learn to expand their drawing skills as well as their knowledge of graphic communication by sketching their ideas and by using ink pens to express themselves. John Mauer's sketch of a vertical mill won first place and Best in State in the Statewide Industrial Art's contest. In the same contest, John Hustice won first place and Best in state for his ink drawing and a third place for his sketch. Other classes taught are Leather, Woods, and Metals, Classes. Mr. Welch, who teached these classes, majored at S.W.T.S.U. and U.T. in Industrial Arts, and Education. The students learn how to use the basic tools and various designs, patterns, and how to use the different types of leather. ln the metals class students can learn the basics of welding, the use of oxygen and using the gas. They also learn, the make up of metals and properties of each, says Mr. Welch. m !l?m-M . t . i3f,e........ 4 A s A . -sf- ,, e ....... , , Y tw.

Bartlett Becomes Photographically Oriented When I was in a college, I started as an undecided, at South West University State, says Bartlett. I took Cabinet making and my teacher asked me to assist in his photography lab. I worked with him doing maintanance in the lab, and I had unlimited access to the lab. In 1971, Mr. Barlett started teaching at the old Austin High building. He taught Auto Me- chanics, Small Engine repair, Crafts, Wood- work, and Metal work. 1975, at the new building he began to teach Pho- tography. ln 1982 he started a new Commer- cial Photography. The new class dealt with advanced methods of photography such as color prints. I enjoy seeing the people be successful. l enjoy seeing them apply things that they have learned here to life, not only in photography but also in human relations . . says Mr. Bartlett. if 1, , Professional! Journalists produce top student newspaper, yearbook A visitor to room 335, the journalism room, would probably notice how incredibly professional the atmosphere was. The four IBM selectric typewriters in the journalism room were always occupied with students trying to meet their deadlines, and the telephone was in constant use, either by students calling their sources, or by people calling to place an ad in the paper. The staff photographers were many times buried alive under stacks of photo orders. And seven wall clocks reported the time in places rangeing from Moscow to New York, just like a real city room. All of these characteristics make for a noisy and chaotic, but professional working environment for SFA student journalists. The journalism department produces two student publications, these are the Maroon newspaper, and the Comet yearbook. The Maroon has won several awards this year. Among these, are the Top Newspaper in Division from the interscholastic League Press Conference ULPCJ, and the Distinguished Merit award, also from ILPC. The Mar0on's editor, Jim Dunn, has also won a number of individual awards. The depth, breath, scope, and nature of the news coverage cannot be touched by any high school paper in the world, said journalism advisor Tom Prentice. The quality of the writing and reporting is superior. The balance between campus, local, and state news is appropriate, and there is a pleasing diversity and balance between news, opinion, feature, and sports coverage, said Prentice. Dunn said he likes being the newspaper's editor because, lt's a good experience. It allows me to deal with many people. Along with Dunn's responsibility to the Maroon, comes the everyday pressure of producing a newspaper.

National Scholastic Press Association, fNSPAj. g The Comet yearbook's editor is Missy Hogarty. She enjoys being the Comet's editor, and said, if , lt's neat trying to design a book that all the students will enjoy. I, 'ilt's alot ofwork, Hogarty said, but, it's neat to have a tangible product to show for all your work. A Comet staff member, Ursala Alvarado, 11th grade, said of the journalism room's atmosphere, It's so casual. All Mr. Prentice has to do is give us our assignment and we do it. lf we have any problems, we talk to him about it, otherwise we're on our own, Alvarado said. The Comet is produced under the assumption that the yearbook is a work of journalism and a work of history, rather than a saccharine work of art, Prentice said. We emphasize reporting and writing, content and coverage more than we emphasize the graphics and design. Further, we've eliminated a lot of reporting and design approaches that are not journalistically sound. For instance, we've eliminated the theme and replaced it with a narrative report of the year. For another example, we've eliminated the division pages and substituted the approach used by national magazines, and we've got more reporting and writing than any other yearbook this side of a college yearbook, Prentice said. Both the Maroon and the Comet met after school sometimes when a deadline approached. With a nearing deadline, the business of the classroom appeared nothing short of frantic. The Introduction to Reporting class learns all of the basic skills of journalism, and journalistic ethics. Freshman Mike Curtis interviews Jake Pickle for the Intro. Reporting class. Toward the end of the school year, the Intro. Reporting class sometimes met after school as they prepared to take over the staff. Aside from classroom activity, the reporting class went on fieldtrips, and attended conventions. Intro. Reporter, Sarah England, 9th grade, doesn't like working under pressure because,'Il like to feel like I have enough time to do my work, and do it right. England learns a lot in the reporting class, and said of Prentice, He's such a cool teacher. The broadcast journalism class, under the supervision of Sandi Brinkman, presented the K-AUS broadcast on Tuesday and Thursday mornings during the first semester. . The Broadcast journalism class learned, to report, write, and announce the news for radio and T.V., said Brinkman. Work after school was sometimes necessary when the students worked on video tapes. i Abel Salas said of the Broadcast journalism class, I learned how to write and broadcast stories. Ms. Brinkman taught us a lot about broadcasting. The Broadcast journalism class was not continued during the second semester. K-AUS went off the air, so the students could spend the rest of the first semester working of television reporting. 56 Academics ew, emu fm ,i . 1 vt 4 74 fm z Freshman Ned Sherman works on a story for the Maroon Makin Darlene Lewis of K-98 guest speaks before the Broadcast Journalism class. it .

Maroon. Prentice earns Newspaper Fund award The most rewarding part of my job? The point where the student reviews his work and realizes the im- provements he has achieved in his writing skills, said Tom Prentice, Austin High journalism advisor. The journalism students are partners with Prentice in producing two student publications. The students have many adult responsibilities and must perform as adults. Prentice began teach- ing in 1976, and he has been at Austin High for five years. Prentice traveled to Chicago, Illinois this year to accept the Journalism Education Asssociation's Outstanding Teacher award. The Newspaper Fund also declared him a Distinguished Advisor. Prentice plans to continue teaching jour- nalism at Austin High, he said. by Julie lvy English coursework stimulates writing The Language Arts classes were considered to be some of the best and most important classes a student could take. Courses ranged from Reading Tutorial to Advanced Shakespeare Honors classes. Ben Molina taught the reading tutorial and CLA classes. In these classes students learned reading comprehension, vocabulary, how to find the main idea, recalling details, literature, and motivation. I love my students and I find strength in their youth, said Molina. They keep me going when times get fought. Molina's students seemed to love him as much as he loved them. He said that the hardest part about teaching was trying not to become so involved in my students' problems. Phyllis Rothgeb taught regular English and Honors English courses. Honors classes were designed to stimulate the analytical skills of advanced students as well as to introduce more material of a more difficult or complex nature. Honors English required more reading and writing than regular English classes, the level of intellectual difficulty was higher, and there was greater emphasis on correct literary terminology and more advanced thinking skills in both reading and composition. The students are expected to analyze the I love my students and I find strength in their youth, they keep me going when times get rough. - Ben Molina literature and composition and to develop the skills that are comparable to skills learned in any college preparatory school, said Flothgeb. Freshman Honors prepared the student so well in English grammar, usage, and basic elements of composition that they were really prepared for the advanced classes. Sophomore Honors was a Iiterarylcomposition class in which students did a lot of creative and expository writing. I love the teaching, said Rothgeb. The language is a joy to me, words are a delight, and literature has always given me a great personal pleasure. Pauline Pritchett, the Austin High teacher of the year, taught senior English lregular and Honorsl and advanced Shakespeare Honors classes. The Shakespeare class did an intensive study of Othello, Hamlet, King Lear, and Mac Beth, plus a seminar-study of four other plays not covered in previous classes. Shakespeare was taught on a college level basis with an extensive analysis of characters, plot, and hidden philosophy. A major project students had to do was a collection of Quotable Quotes from the plays studied. These quotations has deep meaning even when taken out of context. The final results of these quotes were displayed in the library showcase. Students come out of this course with an understanding of the depth and scope of Shakespeares dramas, a keen appreciation of his talents, and a real love for his works, said Pritchett.

The library was a place where students could go for quiet study, to do research for papers in English, social studies, or some other class, or even just to sit and read a book or magazine. The library is the first place l go when pressures build up, said junior Libby Kerwick. I can be by myself and not be bothered by anybody. Besides being full of everything from reference books to biographies to plain fun reading, the library also had a video room for movie and television programs, a seminar room for lectures and meetings fthe Student council often presided therej, and a laminating room for teachers. King and BrazieI's main duties in the library were to assist teachers with lesson plans, do book talks, teach students how to use the library, find materials for individual students, oversee the audiovisual and video equipment in the library, maintain library records, and order new materials. Braziel and King both The library is the first place I go when pressures build up. I can be by myself and not be bothered by anybody. - Libby Kerwick, 1 1. said, however, that the best part of the library was working with the students. The parts of their job that they liked least were dealing with stolen books and maintaining quiet in the library. The library also featured many special projects. There have been art shows where famous paintings were on display, and every week the librarians posted a trivia question for anyone to answer. The winner received a prize and, at the end of the year, the student who had won the most times was awarded a grand prize. There were two new projects begun in the 1982-83 school year. One was to honor teachers who have been outstanding library users such as Mrs. Kyzar, Miss Morrow, and Mr. Dumas, said King. The other was to start a file of college freshmen who are former AHS students. This file contains comments about their re- spective colleges. That kind of information could be very helpful to students wanting to know more about prospective colleges.

Braziel has been a librarian for twenty enjoy- able years. Previously, she has been a librarian at Barton Hills and O. Henry. This has allowed her to have some students from their elementary years throughout high school. I am interested in kids as people, not potential library users. However, I want them to read, Braziel emphasizes. This avid reader enjoys tennis, needlepoint, ski- ing, and loves to travel to such places as Europe and Mexico. She is also deeply involved with reading guidance workshops and the yearly selection of books the library will obtain. Bo Vastine has this to say about Mrs. Braziel. She'sajoyto be around.

Basic and Fortran are the computer classes offered by Karen Smith. To take Fortran, Students must have completed Geometry and it's a good idea to have taken Basic Computer Math, says Karen Smith. She tries to give her students as much experience in operating the computers. The Fortran class is a laboratory-class. Students are given as much hands on experience as possibIe, says Karen Smith. The students learn basic symbols and basic programming abilities in Fortran. The students work on projects for a grade. They will write a certain kind of program for a few weeks. Then they will learn some new material and work on a larger project, says Karen Smith. Karen Smith likes students with aptitude in mathematics, ability to solve problems, and tenacity. I like being able to work on a one-to-one basis with the students, says Karen Smith about her students. Many other math courses are offered. In FOM, Fundimentals of Math, students learn the basic properties of math. Other courses include Algebra I and II, Geometry I and II, I love to teach math, and SFA is the only place I'd teach.

On top of these duties she teaches Trigonometry, Analysis, FOM, Basic II. Analysis is a pre-Calculus course. Students study limits and applications. Colonel Harding, a retired Air Force officer, teaches a number of math classes. Not a few of his students are acquainted with John Q. Smarts and Susie Q. Smarts, his fictitious students who help teach different methods of solving a problem. After retiring from the Air Force, I decided to get a teaching certificate to teach math. I did my student teaching at Austin High in 1971 and was lucky enough to get hired at the end of that semester to take over the classes of my cooperating teacher who retired at that time, says Col. Harding. Andrew Chin, the Mu Alpha Theta president, says, SFA has the best math and computer department in the district. This year we set a school record team score on the National Math Exam.

Let's get physical by Ursula Alvarado Some old and some new Physical Education courses were offered including Body Building, Physical Conditioning, and Slimnastics. Body Building was a new course this year with Diane Farr as the instructor. Because of the intensity of the course, students has to work with buddies . The buddies' job was to spot and encourage each other through their work-outs. At the end of the semester, the students body-posed so that they could show the work that they had done throughout the semester. Posing techniques were taught to the students by Farr and different professional body builders. Farr says that she would like to have a Body Building Il for the students that would like to go on with the program. Positive results may lure students to the course. I liked the course alot because it's built me up physically and mentally, said Chris Villanueva, sophomore. l liked the course alot because it's built me up physically and mentally. - Chris Villanueva Physical Conditioning is an old course that has been offered to students for many years. The course is like the Body Building course, only less intense. This year many students took Physical Conditioning to either get in shape or stay in shape. A The class was enjoyable because I liked the idea of a strong heart and staying in shape, said Luciana Mandal, junior, of the class. Students who were overweight or just wanted to tone up, picked Slimnastics as their Physical Education course. To reach their goal - toning up or losing weight - participants of the class exercised, did aerobic dancing, and worked on specific parts of their body. Angie Morris, instructor of the course, says that the most important aim for the class was to burn up calories and learn about nutrition. Many positive results were acquired by the students. Learning about the right kinds of food, working out, and doing aerobic dancing, helped to improve my body. lt works! , said Terra Eaton, freshman.

I enjoy teaching science because it s an area in which everyone else is not an expert or at least a few things the average Joe doesnt know said Elizabeth Essary. Physiology includes the study bio-chemical processes such as respiration digestion muscle contraction nerve impulse propagation and hormonal control. Laboratory activities include dissections of preserved specimen to study the organ systems the study of microscope slides of cells and tissues and investigation of bio-chemical processes such as digestion and enzyme action. Research papers are written on the brains chemicals and video tapes are shown as well. The use of video tapes and lab activities give enrichment to the course said Essary. Essary also tries to relate physiological processes to the activities and experience of the students. The most interesting thing about physiology to me is learning about the diseases and disorders and embriology the study of babies said Patrick Hagan. For my own personal gratification. said Essary I find that understanding the biological sciences requires an integration of concepts from chemistry and physics with those of traditional biology.

And we will certainly be glad to have him by Allen Brady Mock Senate and Mini-Academy featured in Social Studies by Catherine Arnold Academics-Social Studies A look at the Social Studies department at Austin High will show a wide variety of subjects, from regular history, geography, and government classes to psychology, sociology, Street Law , and Future Issues , which was added to the curriculum this semester. The required courses generated some interest among students in history and government. I enjoyed the dialogues that we did involving the Romans and Mesopotainians in Mr. Patrick's World History class, said Steve Griffith. Government was also popular with many seniors, in which students learned the Constitutional basis of U.S. government. Following were studies of the legislative, executive, and judicial functions at the state and national level. Government is taught by Brian Schenk and Rosemary Morrow. Also given some consideration are the state and local governments of Texas, and the functioning of the national bureacuracy, Schenk explained. I participated in a mock trial in Mr. Schenk's government class. We had a twelve man jury and a judge. It was like a real jury triaI, said John Peavey, senior. I liked the mock senate in Mr. Schenk's government class. I learned the responsibilities ofa politician, stated Barbara Lugo. Schenk also teaches Philosophy and Religions, in which students examine the Great ideas such as Being, Knowing, Reason, Logic, as well as the Thinkers who first grappled with the thoughts, explained Schenk. The course then considers that which cannot be 'Known', which humanity has had to explain ergo the Great Religions. Students read books and essays by the great philosophers and hold discussions about what they have read. I liked the mock senate in Mr. Schenk's government class. I learned the responsibilities of a politician. -Barbara Lugo A strong attention-getter was conceived by Booker SnelI's Current Events class. Each week they constructed a graffiti board outside the teacher's offices in the social studies department. Topics differed from week to week, and students were encouraged to express themselves freely and anonymously, a liberty many of them took advantage of in a humorous way. We had some very interesting answers to questions from Reaganomics to abortion to unemployment, said Whit Elliot, sophomore. The Street Law classes were taught by Brian Schenk and Jean McMillian, were designed to give students an overview of the criminal justice system. Students examine law, law enforcement, crime, courts, prisons, and rehabilitation, as well as juvenile and school justice and matters of family law-divorce, marriage, and child custody, explained Schenk. The course is taught mainly through oral reports by students and guest speakers. I really liked Mr. Schenk's mock trial in Street Law. I learned about the plea bargaining method, said Edward Van Wisse. The oral reports that we did in Mrs. McMillian's Street Law class on the criminal justice system taught me a lot about what really goes on, said senior Jim Sander. This year, McMillian's Street Law class took part in a mini-police academy for a week, held by two officers ofthe Austin Police Department. Students learned the basic codes followed by officers including probable cause and procedures for arrests, and then used their knowledge in role-playing situation. At the end of the week, students were allowed to ride with actual police officers on their shifts and observe their routines. Guest speakers are frequent, and during the semester a variety of people have lent their expertise to the classes, including people from the Better Business Bureau, Credit Office, Austin Tenants Council, Arsonist Office of the Police Department, Lobbyist Agency, and real estate firms. Speakers can give their own personal experience to the class and that is a lot more interesting than just reading it in the textbook, said senior Matt Belew. - f V - I X i is . s.

McMillian enjoys students Mrs. McMillian, the new history teacher, may be new to SFA but she is not new to the school system. With thirty two years of teaching behind her, twenty years in the Austin area, McMillian looks eagerly forward to what lies ahead. With a B.A. and M.A, in history from East Texas State, McMillian first wanted to go into music but she wanted to work with young people . McMillian credits her father, a former super- intendent of schools with partial influence on her decision to teach. The sponsor of many activities during her teaching career, McMillian is the current sponsor of the SFA cheerleaders and former organizer of the Managent Internship for the Austin school area. McMillian states that after teaching she would someday like to go into public relations . The most rewarding part of McMillians teaching is the relationships that I share with the students and the self satisfaction that I receive from teaching . - Aaron Kluth Debate teaches speaking skills by Catherine Arnold Presenting logical arguments and speaking effectively and confidently in public are the important skills taught in Debate. The Speech course was discontinued as it is no longer a prerequisite for Debate. The course is taught by Dan Arnold, in addition to his regular American History classes. This year was a rebuilding year, he explained, because many of our debators were new this year. The students are also expected to take part in the many contests and tournaments, which make up a large part of their grades. The debate team has the longest season of any at Austin High. lt starts in September and extends into summer workshops. The team took part in over twelve tournaments all over the state this year in San Antonio, Waco, Corpus Christi, Debate was a very important part of my high school years. It taught me skills in speaking that I can use for the rest of my life - Alex Avila Abilene, and Austin. Members gave up their week-ends to travel and compete in the various contest. At the UIL tournament at Johnston, Alex Avila, Richard Taylor, and Tom Selby took first, second and third places, respectively, in Lincoln-Douglas debate.

Resource Education Helps All Types of Students by Catherine Arnold The special education department at Austin High works to serve students who do not benefit from the mainstream program. Classes range from self-contained to itinerant fone hour of service per weekl. Students are served who qualify for service under one or more of the handicapping conditions: Mentally Retarded, Speech Handicapped, Emo- tionally Disturbed, Orthopedically Han- dicapped, Other Health Impaired, Visually Handicapped, and Learning Disabled, explains special education teacher Donna Bogle. The department handles a wide range of student abilities and disabilities, which vary according to the individual needs The department is unique in that it provides instructional and support services to more than twenty college-bound special education students. - Donna Bogle and goals of the students, says Bogle. Physical education is adapted as well to design and implement activities that meet individual needs. The department is equally unique in that it provides instructional and support services to more than twenty college bound special education students, Bogle states. The catagories within the department range from the ones offered to students with problems in only one area, such as verbal abilities to the physically han- dicapped and mentally retarded students, taught by Tom Wiley, who stay with him most of the day. When a tspecial educationl student leaves the Self-Contained program, he or she should be employable and have home and community survival skills, says Wiley. The mentally retarded are only one type of student we serve. Special education is just that - special. lt is a uniquely designed program and spec- trum of services developed to meet the individual needs of students, explains Bogle.

Taking care of the grounds, keeping the halls, rooms, and bathrooms neat, and preparing nutritious meals are the main duties of support staff workers. Also, they make minor repairs and adjustments in the building. Many of the workers have been employed at Austin High a number of years, including Robert Jamison, who has been with AISD for 25 years. Other custodians are: Louis Aguilar fhead custodianl, Keith Baker, Matthew Cook, Domingo Etorga, Richard Foster, Mary Hayden, Jacob Hernandez, Pauline Hernandez, Louisa Hernandez, William Lee, Jesse Hernandez, James Lavette, Maty Ester Ramirez, James Reed, Geraldine Stiles, Frances Soto, Josephine Simmons, John Harris, Scott Marsh, Bradley Williams, and Felipe Rivera. James Lavatt 73 Vocational Education gives student job skiIls,experience Catherine Arnold The Austin High curriculum includes several courses which allow students to gain valuable, on-the-job experience and classroom instruction. Students earn three credits per year by working at a place of business, and another by taking a course related to their work at school. In addition, students earn wages for their work. Health Occupations, taught by Judy Rose, allows students interested in the health fields to test them out. Students work in hospitals and public and private clinics. However, students must take Health Careers, also taught by Rose, before they can enroll in Health Occupations. Anatomy, medical ethics, medical terminology, abbreviations, and vital The purpose of the class is to obtain basic medical skills and to also-learn entry level skills on'the'lob-U ,, Rose signs are some topics covered in the course. Rose explains, The purpose of the class is to obtain basic medical skills and to also learn entry level skills on-the-job. In addition to class and work, students compete in various contests around the state. The club associated with them is called the Health Occupations Students of America lHOSAl. Through Health Occupations, l learned the things I liked and disliked about the health career fields, said Jamysen Priest, senior. Vocational Office Education lVOEl is taught by Sherilyn Palmer. The course requires competency in shorthand and typing and it is offered each semester. The course employs skills learned in the Business Department. Students work in clerical and sec- retarial capacities which includes the offices of lawyers, doctors, and insur- ance agencies. Several new computers have been added to this department to keep up with current trends. The demand for clerical workers versed in computer languages has risen dramatically in the past few years as computers are present in almost every office in town. Industrial Media is taught by Don Lawson to give students vocational training in broadcasting to the public. Television production including audio, lighting, scripting, and camera was taught in the course.

Krissy Looney looks over h Varsity baseball never ceased playing as team Throughout the whole season we never ceased to play as ateam, expressed senior Tony Diggs. This seemed to be the attitude of the whole team. The Maroons were picked as early favorites due to their winning streak through the first 10 games. Placing fourth in district with an 18-10 season record the team didn't quite meet the expectations of many. Junior Steve Cantu boasting an excellent .391 batting average and an equally impressive 510 on-base-average QOBAJ stated, We just couldn't handle the pressure . After the Maroon victory in the AlSDtournament,theteam seemedto slack off, though Diggs seemed to recall the last game of the season, a 9-0 victory over Reagan, as impressive. Diggs states, lfwe, played like that the rest of the season we would have took it . David McDaniel, senior, pulled out a 352 batting average and a 515 OBA. Also impressive about the senior was that he was struck out only three times out of 107 times at bat. Diggs, though he missed thefirst nine games of the season came out with a 392 batting average and a 537 OBA. Jason Huff, senior, and one of the best pitchers in the district held a 10-3 pitching record and an excellent 1.05 earned - run average.

Players Russel White, Lane Brindley, Ricky Chaney and Skip Baylor congratulate the other team on a victory Sports Varsity Cagers go 12-185 JV and Frosh 9-9 By Jeff Sanders The Boys' Varsity Basketball Team had a difficult year, finishing the season with an overall record of 12-18 and a district record of 5-13. The Maroon's troubles arose from the fact that no starters and only three lettermen returned from the previous varsity team. We were hurt by a lack of experience caused by graduation and transfer, said Head Coach Dave Patrick, but we never quit. Our record was in no way indicative of our spirit and diligence. The Maroons were led by sophomore Nathan McDonald, junior Mike Jones, and senior Dennis Nielson. ln addition, seniors Gary Griffin and Steve Ramirez, a 5'6 guard, were important factors in the Maroons' season. Seniors Edward Taylor and Duane Sherrod, juniors Willie Walls, Eddie Harris, Paul Johnston, Carter Manly, and Joe Coe, and sophomore Doug Lancaster also contributed valuable playing time. They were an enjoyable group to coach, said Patrick. They were intense competitors who refused to give up in close situations. McDonald, a 6'2 forward, led the Maroons with 13.2 points per game and 7.1 rebounds per contest as an Honorable Mention All-District performer, In addition to this honor, McDonald was named co-sophomore of the year in District 26 5A along with Carl Knuckols of Travis. 6'2 forward Dennis Nielson also had a successful year for the Maroons, scoring 12.8 points per game They were an enjoyable group to coach. They were intense com- petitors who refused to give up in close situations. - Dave Patrick and pulling down 7.3 rebounds per contest as one of the Maroons' three returning lettermen. He was assisted by the two other returning lettermen, 6'2 guard Mike Jones 6'6 center Gary Griffin. Each of the three started regularly for the Maroons during the season. lt was disappointing to lose, said Jones, but it was kind of expected because of our lack of experience. We did gain a lot of valuable playing time during the season, though. ln the first half of district play, the Maroons posted a disappointing 1-8 record, defeating only LBJ 59-49. Mike Jones, junior, led the Maroons to that lone victory with 18 points. The Maroons, however, were defeated by Crockett, Lanier, Johnston, Anderson, San Marcos, Reagan, Travis, and McCallum in overtime. ln the 76-69 OT loss, McDonald led the Maroons with 24 points. In the second half of the district season, the Maroons fared better, winning their first three games en route to a 4-5 record. Austin defeated Crockett 47-44, Lanier 74-60, and LBJ 66-61. The victory over Crockett gave the Maroons a 2-1 record against the Cougars for the season, while their win over LBJ completed a season sweep of the Jaguars. The win against Lanier, aided by McDonald's 24 points, was espescially sweet, U1 lu v 3 , Aja A 3 f -. l N, P ,.,.

The Maroons, however, lost their next five games to Johnston, Anderson, San Marcos, Reagan, and Travis. The Anderson game was the closest of the five as the Maroons were defeated 56-51 despite outscoring the Trojans 21-12 in the final quarter. The Maroons won their final district game of the season over McCallum by a score of 71-47, making up for the Maroons' overtime loss to the Knights in the first half of the district season. ln all, we exceeded our realistic preseason expectations, said Patrick. Because of our lack of experience, we weren't expected to do well at all, but despite that, we played hard enough to keep Austin High basketball competitive. Both the Junior Varsity and Freshman teams posted 9-9 district records on the year for the Maroons. In fact, both of the teams went 4-5 in the first half of the district season and 5-4 in the second. For their four first half victories, the Junior Varsity defeated Crockett, Johnston, Anderson, and McCallum, while the Freshman team defeated Anderson, Johnston, San Marcos, and Reagan. In the second half, the Junior Varsity defeated Crockett for the second time this season, Lanier 79-49, Reagan 68-66, Travis 52-44, and McCallum 78-55. The Freshman team's five wins were over Lanier 58-36, Anderson 62-52, San Marcos 76-42, Reagan 68-55, and Travis 51-49. Overall, the Junior Varsity defeated Crockett and McCallum twice, split with Johnston, Anderson, Travis, Reagan, and Lanier, and lost twice to San Marcos and LBJ. The Freshman team, however, defeated Reagan, San Marcos, and Anderson twice, split with Travis, Johnston, and Lanier, and lost twice to LBJ, Crockett, and McCallum. 3 t E S Q 552' E 1 4 e, f Q ,f.

During the year, the Maroons scored 44.2 points per game to their opponents' slightly higher average of 48.6 points per game. The Maroons were led by 5'3 All-District senior guard Julie Luck, 5'8 senior post Cyndi Martinez, 6'0 senior post Sharon Dunn, and 5'3 senior guard Carla Wright. Martinez was the Maroons' leading scorer with 10.4 points per game, followed by Dunn's 9.7 average and Wright's 7.4 average. The Maroons were also helped by 5'3 senior guard Melinda Maldonado, 5'3 sophomore guard Paige Killingwater, 5'3 junior wing Florence Henderson, and 5'5 junior wing Yvonne Henderson. All of these players received extensive playing time to help the Maroons during the season. They were a cohesive team, said Head Coach Jean Owen, because each of the players worked equally hard to win. There was no one consistent outstanding player during the season, but rather a constant switching of the leading role. In both halves of district play, the Maroons posted 3-6 records en route to their previously mentioned 6-12 record. In the first half, the team lost to Travis by two points, Crockett and Johnston by one point, and Lanier, San Marcos, and Reagan by wider margins. The Maroons defeated McCallum 53-41, LBJ 44-32, and Anderson 33-32 for their three first half victories. ln the second half of play, the Maroons lost to Travis, Crockett, Lanier, LBJ, San Marcos, and Reagan, and defeated McCallum 40-32, Johnston 61-53, and Anderson 46-43. Overall, the Maroons beat McCallum and Anderson twice during the district season, split with Johnston and LBJ, and lost twice to Travis, Crockett, Lanier, San Marcos, and Reagan. They were a cohesive team because each of the players worked equally hard to win. There was no one consistently outstanding player. - Coach Jean Owen The Maroons participated in three tournaments during the year, placing fourth in the Georgetown tourney, second consolation in the Round Rock tourney, but not at all in the AISD Invitational. The Maroons opened the pre-tournament season with a close 40-39 victory over Taylor and a 55-35 loss to Westlake. In the opening game of the Georgetown tournament, the Maroons captured a win over Leander 39-37, but then lost their next two to Waco University and Copperas Cove. In the Round Rock tournament, the Maroons opened with a loss to Georgetown by a score of 62-47, but came back and defeated Marble Falls 64-36 before losing to Round Rock 60-50 in the consolation finals. In the AISD invitational tournament, the team opened with a 48-41 loss to Del Valle, but followed with a 46-34 victory over Crockett and a 61-42 blowout victory over Victoria Stroman. The Maroons were then eliminated from the tournament after they lost to LBJ by a score of 57-53. l was really impressed with our outstanding defense, said Owen. They were a much better defensive team than they were offensive. The Junior Varsity Girl's Basketball Team also had a difficult season, posting a 6-12 district record and a 7-13 overall record. The team was led by Ruth Ann Brown, who averaged 15 points per game before leaving the team with a broken hand. Brown, who missed the Maroons' last four games, had the high single game point total for the season with 25 points against McCallum. In the first half of district play, the Maroons posted a disappointing 2-7 record, losing to Lanier, LBJ, Crockett, Johnston, Anderson, San Marcos, and Reagan. The Maroons won two of their first three games of the half over Travis by a score of 33-31 and McCallum by a score of 53-17. In the second half of district play, the Maroons posted an improved 4-5 record, despite losing their last four games after Brown's injury. The Maroons opened the second half of the season by losing to Travis in a close 36-34 contest. The Maroons won their next four in a row, however, beating McCallum 56-23, Crockett 38-32, Lanier 39-34, and LBJ 35-21. After that streak that put the Maroons at 4-1, the team Sports Melinda Maldonado, senior, drives upcourt as Paige Gillingwater, sophomore lost to Johnston in a tight game, Anderson by five points, San Marcos by a wider margin, and Reagan by a score of 41-31 ln addition to Brown, the team was helped by Felicity Woollett, a 5'8 sophomore, Elaine Shealy, a 5'8 sophomore, Sandra Allen, a 5'4 junior, Mary Moran, a 5'4 sophomore, Melissa Mokarzel, a 5'4 sophomore, Dorothy Baylor, a 5'3 junior, Michelle Grimes, a 5'7 sophomore, Erin McArthur, a 5'8 sophomore, Johanna Oliver, a 5'9 sophomore, Shelly Williams, a 5'8 sophomore, and Sandi Tolces, a 5'6 sophomore. We were a much better team than our record indicated, said Coach Melba Cox. We were hit hard by injuries to our key players. ln fact, had our players stayed healthy, we might have won the second half of play. The Freshman Girls' Basktball team, despite it's lack ofexperience, managed to win five games during the season, finishing with a 5-15 overall record and a 5-13 district mark. That lack of experience was evidenced by the fact that only two of the girls on the team had ever played competitive basketball before. 5'7 Gena Caudle and 5'6 Holly Miller were the only two players who had ever played basketball, with the rest being either volleyball players or just new participants in sports. Caudle was the leading scorer, averaging in double figures for the season. her high point performance was against Johnston, where she scored 26 points. Elizabeth Hrin, Karol Fields, Charvelle Carouthers, Bianca Warnsley, Trey Lindauer, Kelly Doyle, Cindy Maner, Jeanne Hassel, Ame Deleon, Kelly Herrera, Jackie Keaton, and Veronica Gorena also contributed playing time for the Maroons. In the first half of the season, the Maroons went 2-7, losing to Travis, Lanier, LBJ, Crockett, Johnston, San Marcos, and Reagan, the Maroons defeated McCallum and Anderson. ln the second half, the Maroons posted a 3-6 record, beating only Crockett, LBJ, and Anderson.

Most competitive team' Harper says of Varsity gridsters 1'This was the most competitive team in the three years I've been here commented varsity coach Bill Harper on the 1982 Varsity football season. The determination of the team was demonstrated by the jump from the previous two consecutive 2-8 Varsity seasons to a 3-6-1 season record in 1982. The Maroons pulled out a sixth place rating in the 26AAAAA District over Johnston, Lanier, and Travis. Some of the exciting highlights to follow! SFA v Westwood 13-7 As the First game of the season and also the first win it was correctly termed by coach Harper as A great start . Junior Kent Obenhaus had a good game. He picked up a block punt blocked by junior Jimmy Sepeda, and scored a touchdown. SFA v Lanier 11-0 We played a good defensive game commented Harper on the Maroons victory over the Vikings. Junior Defensive tackle Derek Bateman stated We went into the game with a positive attitude and kept our momentum throughout the evening . Junior Lane Brindley reeled in three interceptions during this game. SFA v Johnston 27-7 Senior Skip Baylor, who raked in four touchdowns this game was largely responsible for the 27-7 Maroon victory. Baylor ran up a total of 125 yards for the win. Senior quarterback David McDaniel threw three complete passes for 35 yards. Senior Rickey Chaney captured five receptions for 95 yards. SFA v Anderson The 6-6 tie resulting from this game was preserved by senior Pauj-,Cartwright when he received one of his three interceptions in a crucial position. This maneuver was per- formed against the leading passer of The 26AAAAA district, Andersons Scott Towman in the last 43 seconds of the game. Senior Bubba Curcoe had 17 receptions for 66 yards. SFA v San Marcos 14-29 This Near end of season game looked promising in the first half when Chaney received two touchdown passes and the Maroons were leading 14-0. ln the second Half after Senior Chris Booth suffered a knee injury the game was lost 29-14. -Will Miller Sport E .. ,,. .K ,,,, Coach Bill Harper instructs players on defensive techniques during a mid-season training session Senior Skip Baylor rolls through the end zone after scoring the first touchdown of the Westwood.

The 1!9 season record, also present in the Junior Varsity football season, was the result of this inability to get it together . The highlight of their season must be recognized as the 22-8 victory over Johnston. The disappointing season of the Junior Varsity team seemed to be due to a loss of a great deal of the line and backfield to the Varsity team. We lost three of our starting linemen and two of our backs to the Varsity team commented J.V. player Mike Gaudion. The sole victory game of the season was the 22-8 win over Johnston.

Boys golf team places sixth and third by Barton Brooks The Boys' golf team had a quite successful season under the coaching of Biology teacher, Charles Bowman. The team began a series of good finishes by defeating each and every team they competed against during city round robin play. The boys' went on to place sixth out of twenty-six teams at the Boys' Fall Invitational and third in stiff competition at the 19th Annual Boys' Invitational Tournament. Coach Bowman emphasizes the teams' performance is due to the practice, experimentation, and hard work each player puts into their golf. Such results have payed off. Jeff Seekatz, Senior, was the runner-up medalist in District of 1982. Seekatz also received a five-thousand dollar mathematics scholarship to the University of Texas, where he plans to try out for the golf team. In the spring tournaments, the boys' placed second out of forty teams at the Matador Classic, fifth at the Tournament of Champions, and sixth at the Fort Worth Recreational. Then, the team played in 5-A district competition where the varsity placed second and junior varsity won their division. The varsity's second place finish got them to regionals in Corpus Christi where a change in the elements halted them from a top finish. However, the team not only spent time on the golf course, but worked in coordination with the Travis County Extension Energy Committee to caulk and seal the house of some senior citizens. In return for the boys' hard work, time, and effort, they received a donation to help pay for tournaments. The team was the best youth group of the ten participating thus far, states Nancy Yockhouf, Coordinating Extension Agent of the Energy Committee. This is quite an acheivement for a team to render such services out of their own accord and goodwill. The girls' team, coached by Melisa Thompson, had a very strong season, also. The girls' placed 5th out of fifteen teams at the AISD Girls' Invitational in February 17, 18, 1982. The team went on to place first at the Beeville Girls' Invitational with third and fourth place medalist finishes from Elizabeth Turley, sophomore, and Gayla Bryant, senior. Then, the girls' played in the Waco ISD Girls' Invitational where SFA placed fourth out of fourteen strong teams. District was held in March on the 28th and 29th of 1983. The girls' placed second behind Travis which allowed them to advance to Regionals in Corpus Christi. The girls' team should be quite strong for the next several years indicates Coac1 Thompson. There is only one graduating senior, Gayla Bryant, and with the rest of the players being freshmen and sophomores, the teams' play will improve with experience. , I . - 'L ..., ff . f 2 za .... fe..- Ns.

We reached the goal which l thought we could have achieved, said Glover. GIover's goal was to reach the regional finals which Austin did. As far as going beyond the regional finals Glover stated that he was satisfied with the team's overall performance. Austin opened their season losing their first game against Westwood 11-21. Bouncing back from their first district loss, Austin went on to win their next five games, defeating Reagan 16-11, Crockett 16-21, Round Rock 12-11, Travis12-11, and McCallum 15-01, before losing to Westlake 11-01. After the loss to Westlake, Austin regrouped itself and won their last five games of district play defeating Georgetown 15-01, Johnston 17-01, Lanier 11-01, LBJ 19-01, and Anderson 14-31, before entering the bi-district finals. Austin lost their bi-district game against San Antonio Holmes in double overtime, 14-31. Austin ended their season with a 10-2 district record and a 10-3 overall record. According to Coach Glover, the basic strategy that Austin used was to control the tempo of the game by using their passing abilities to break down the defenses of the opposing team. This would hopefully bring out and show the weaknesses of the other team. Glover attributed most of the team's wins to their overall skill advantage over the other teams. A few games were won by our intense desire to win. This skill advantage over the other teams was quite evident in the games against Reagan 16-11, Crockett 16-21, McCallum 15-01, Georgetown 15-01, Johnston 17-01, and LBJ 19-01. What made the Austin team appear almost unbeatable can be credited to its amazingly strong offense. Headed by Senior Eric Browning and Senior Jason Burton and backed up by Senior Tom Nelson and Sophomore Chris Conroy, the main plan was to penetrate the opposing team's defense by having either Nelson or Conroy run down the sidelines with the ball. Browning or Burton would be positioned in front of the goal, the ball would be then passed to either Burton or Browning and if everything went right, a goal would be scored. A simple strategy which worked very well. A winning team cannot be a winning team without a strong defense. Goalie David Russell showed his skill as he stopped many almost sure goals from being scored. Russell had a record of five games in which no goals were scored against him. Glover admitted that sheer determination on the part of the players, turned an apparent deadlock or loss into a win. In a game against Lanier, Austin was held scoreless and s 3 1 1- ,wai A , Q -Z.,.,vfff,:' ' i f Jason Burton sets up a ball. appeared to be weakening under Lanier's offensive pressure when they pulled their act together and scored to win that game 11-01, said Glover. Many players agreed that the coaching was among the best. Coach Glover was an excellent coach, said Senior Scott Conn. His method of coaching was very good, said Junior Robert George. When asked about the team's best game, Glover replied that he believed Johnston was their best game. We won that game behind a very careful offense and a stingy defense, said Glover. The Johnston game showed cooperation among all the members of the team, one crutial element needed in a game, said Glover. Many of the other players, however, disagreed with coach Glover, in that they thought that Westlake was their best game. Senior Tom Nelson stated that the team played pretty well, we could have done better. Nelson singled out the defense as the major problem of the game in that they gave out toward the end of the game. Senior David Russell and Senior Gary Kincade both agreed with Tom Nelson's assessment of the Westlake game. We played them tough, and as a team, said Russell. Kincade sighted the defense as the main problem. Our defensebreak down at the wrong time, said Kincade. Lack of discipline was our main problem, said Russell. Austin lost the Westlake game 1-0. And what about next year's team? We're Sports . ..., K I ,t fa 1 Z Kristen Otto prepares to pass. going to lose a lot of starting players, which will affect us greatly, we will just have to wait and see, said Glover. The Girls Varsity Soccer Team began its season playing in the AISD Tournament on January 12th and 13th. During those two days, the girls defeated Johnston and Travis, but lost to Westlake and Georgetown. ln the game between Austin and Johnston, Austin won 4-O with goals from senior Anna Sanchez 121, freshman Jeannie De- Graffenreid 111, and Cam Walton 111. Austin defeated Travis 2-0 with goals from senior Banford Harris and sophomore Cyndi Byrd. The girls opened their district season on a down note, losing their first two games to Westwood 14-01 and barely losing to Reagan 12-11. Cam Walton scored the only goal in that game for Austin. The Crockett game ended in a scoreless tie of 0-0. The team's first district win came against Travis 14-11, behind the strong goal scoring of Anna Sanchez and Cyndi Byrd who scored two goals apiece. The girls won against McCallum 13-01, Johnston 11-01, and Lanier 12-01. Austin beat LBJ 11-01, the last game which they would win during their season. In that game, senior Cam Walton made an outstanding goal from midfield which went over the goalie's head. The girls lost to Westlake 12-01, Georgetown 14-01, Anderson 16-31 and Round Rock 13-11. The soccer team ended their district Cam Walton attempts a goal during an LBJ game. season with a record 5-6-1, and an overall record of 7-8-1. According to Coach Ferrel, the team played their best, our record does not accurately indicate our ability. We lost six seniors from last years team, and that hurt us, we were inexperienced, said Ferrel. This was a sentiment echoed by other players as well. I think we lacked mostly experience and organization, said Mary Stanley. Many of the players, including the coach, think that the best game they played was against Westlake, a game which they lost 2-0. We should have won, we simply out played them, said Coach Ferrel. Our forwards played excellent, but Westlake got some lucky goals, said Chris Ritter. Despite the girls season record, they never gave up during a game, even if they were losing. One example of this determination and dedication was found in a game which they played against Anderson. Austin was down 6-1 when they rallied to score two goals in five minutes. Banford Harris made a circus goal which caught the goalie far from the net. Senior Lici Whitfield was not to be denied either, as she dribbled her way between two defenders to score a goal in the last minutes of the game. Austin lost that game to Anderson Q6-33, but it was one of many games which the girls played to the end, a fine example to future soccer players. U. H W, ani Q 4 If 'mfwf ' , www' 1, ..1,, Six tw.

The boys' began their winning season by placing first in all divisions at the Temple Tournament in October, 1982. The team went on to place third out of over thirty teams at the Georgetown Tourney, third at the Memorial Tournament with a second place finish from Mark Smith, Senior, and lost only one out of seventeen round robin matches. In the AISD Fall Tournament Scott Brown, Senior, placed second in A singles, William Dopson first in B singles, and Bradley and Dudley McClellan first in A doubles. The team also did well at the Victoria Tourney with a fourth place finish out of thirty teams. I feel that time spent on the court is very important and necessary for the team to do well. However, other things such as academics and team spirit are essential to keep the team's players productive as a team, implies Warren. Dudley McClellan, Senior, Carter Breed, Senior, and Scott Brown are all Merit Scholarshipfinalists. Also, Dudley and Bradley McClellan are members of the Austin Maroon Society. In the District Tournament several players iid outstandingly well. Richard and William Jopson, freshmen, won first place in doubles sompetition. In singles competition Mark Smith and Scott Brown attained the first and second place titles. However, Scott lost out in the second round of regionals. Mark Smith went on to blaze through regionals and at the State Championship Mark won the 5-A singles title. The girls' tennis team also had a quite remarkable season under the hard work and leadership of coach Barbara Behme. The team began their season by placing second in the Georgetown Tourney, with the aid of a first place doublesfinish from NancySanders, Sophomore, and Marla Byers, Freshman. Then, the girls placed second in the Temple Tournament where Diana Dopson, Junior, placed first in A singles. Beck Youman, Sophomore, and Marla Byers placed first in A doubles competition, while Jennifer Genung and Kristin Peterson, Sophomores, placed second in B doubles. The team should be even stronger next year since no one is graduating and several strong newcomers will be joining us to build the already strong team, Behne indicates. However, with Diana Dopson's first place singles finishes at the Temple Tournament, Victoria Tourney, and the AISD Invitational, improvement is limited. Diana went on from these tournaments to win district, regionals, and the State 5-A girls' championship. Nancy Sanders had this to say about Dopson. Diana has a lot of natural ability, but she never would have won the championship without the extreme hard work and dedication she gave to the game. The boys' tennis team show a sampling of their trophies and awards won individually and teamwise. sm 5 , K. .,,,, as ,.,, m,,,,,.. ,,,,,, .T - ,.,. W ,.,. W S W j W A . gg ,,,,,, ,.... .... 1.

Track Cross Country Wins Districtg Regional By Jody Hart For the third year the boys' varsity cross-country team placed first in the district meet. But this time the team went on to caputre the regional title and sixth place in the State meet. The team's performance drew much praise from their coach, Diane Farr. This was undoubtedly the best season we've ever had, said Farr. lt was a pleasure to work with the best group of athletes l've ever coached. The girls' varsity team also finished a successful season, placing second in district and tenth in the regional meet. Led by junior Gabrielle Van Wisse and senior Sally Bernau, the girls ran well throughout the season. To train forthe season, both girls' and boys' varsity and junior varsity teams ran on the lakeside Hike and Bike Trail every day. During the early season, the team members ran long distances of ten or more miles and lifted weights, said Coach Farr. Later, during competition, they ran two times a day at varied intervals of distances. The schedule was rigorous, but the hard training paid off in the long run. Erik Browning, the Maroon running sensation, had some comments about team practices. The work was real hard, and it was a real drag getting up at 5:45 in the morning, but it was worth it. I don't think wewould have made it as far as we did if it had not been for the dedication each team member had for the sport. The boys' junior varsity, led by junior Robert Johanson and senior Michael Conrad, had an outstanding year, finishing first in three meets and placing second in the district meet. The girls' junior varsity also did well. Runners Kathleen Guerra, Jenny Freeman, and Mary Stanley paced the Maroons to third and fourth place finishes in the Round Rock and Westlake meets, respectively. When asked about the outlook for the 1984 season, Coach Farr said that the boys' varsity team willgothrough somewhat ofarebuilding year, but the superb junior varsity this year promises to add strength to next year's varsity team. With Gabrielle Van Wisse returning,thegirls'varsity,should also dowell next year. Varsity netters secondg JV, 17-4, tied for firstg Frosh, fourth -Jeff Sanders The girls' Varsity Volleyball Team completed a fun year, finishing second in the district with a record of 14-4 and an overall mark of 23-10. Their second place finish to champion San Marcos propelled the girls into the bi-district playoff against Houston Stratford, which Austin lost 12-15, 3-15. The girls had a lot of funf' commented Coach Melba Cox, who was awarded Co-Coach of the Year honors in her thirty-seventh and final year of coaching. Their togetherness and enjoyment of the game made the season, she added. The Maroons finished the first half of the district season with an 8-1 record, posting victories over Travis, McCallum, Crockett, Lanier, LBJ, Johnston, Anderson, and Reagan. Their only loss came at the hands of district champ San Marcos 5-15, 6-15. In the second half of the district season, the Maroons posted a 6-3 record, losing to Travis 10-15, 11-15, Lanier 10-15, 15-7, 12-15, and San Marcos 2-15, 7-15. Austin defeated Reagan, Anderson, Johnston, Crockett, LBJ, and McCallum for their six second half victories. In the early part of the season, the Maroons participated in three tournaments: the South San Antonio Tournament, the AISD tournament, and the San Marcos Tournament. ln the South San Antonio Tournament, the netters won their first game over Jourdanton 16-14, 15-O, but lost their final two to Harlandale and McCollum and did not place. The Maroons, however, won the consolation game in the AISD Tournament after winning their final three games. ln their first match against Tivy, the Maroons won convincingly 15-2, 15-2. ln the second round, however, they lost to Westwood 8-15, 15-10, 11-15. The Maroons then defeated Georgetown, Lanier, and Reagan in theirfinal three games to capture the consolation title. In the San Marcos Tournament, the Maroons won their first game over San Marcos Junior Varsity by a score of 15-10, 16-14, but then lost their next game to eventual runner-up Killeen Ellison 14-16, 14-16. lt was a really fine match,'i said Coach Cox of the Ellison game. They just 'eeked' it out. The Maroons were led this year by three all-district players in seniors Julie Luck, Sharon Dunn, and Carla Wright. sophomore Nancy Sanders, junior Selena Solis, and seniors Lisa Miller and Cindy Martinez also played consistently well throughout the season for the Maroons. The girls had a lot of fung their togetherness and enjoyment of the game made the season. -Coach Melba Cox The Junior Varsity Volleyball team also had an extremely successful season, posting a 17-4 overall record and a 15-3 district mark. As a result of this excellent record, the Maroons finished tied for first in the 10 team district with the San Marcos Rattlers. In the first half of the season, the Maroons posted a 7-2 record, losing only to San Marcos 7-15, 6-15, and Reagan 15-9, 9-15, 12-15. The Maroons defeated Travis, McCallum, Crockett, Lanier, LBJ, Johnston, and Anderson in their first seven district games before losing their final two. In the second half of the season, the Maroons fared better, defeating every school but Lanier for an 8-1 record. Included in those eight wins were victories over San Marcos 15-12, 15-12, and Reagan 15-13, 15-11. The Maroons defeated Travis, McCallum, Crockett, LBJ, Johnston, and Anderson twice each during the district season. Prior to the Maroons' exceptional pla in district competition, the netters posted a 2-1 record against non-district teams.

The Junior Varsity team was led by Juniors Belinda Bryant, Michelle Davila, Allison Shield, and Millie Zapata, and sophomores Diane Echeverria, Melissa Macaluso, Erin McArthur, Melissa Mokarzel, Johanna Oliver, Elaine Shealy, and Sandy Tolces. They're all top players, commented Coach Owen. The Freshman Volleyball Team finished tied for fourth in the ten team district with a 9-9 district record and a 9-11 season record.

Variety Band has a diverse year. by Patirck Hagan and Amy Cook This was director Bosendo Sanchez's third year, and it was full of variations, including taking over the flags, continuing the Band Parents Organization, and leading the band to ones at contest. Sanchez said of the flag corps, Since the flags play an important part in all the half-time activities with the band, making them a part of the band was the only logical solution. Tori Obey, senior, said, lt was a nice change from the routine of marching to being a flag and rifle member. Gary Bailey directed the flag and rifle corps. He, himself, was a member of the Madison Scouts, a famous flag and rifle organization. This was the second year of the Band Parents Organization. The main purpose of the organization is to support the band, not only through monetary help, but also in the development of the band program. The band parents held a band supper with the fall concert, sold assorted nuts at Christmas time, sponsored many car washes, and sold pizza-making kits. All of these fund raisers went toward senior jackets and supporting the band. The band themselves raised over two thousand-eight hundred dollars on selling Jamboree tickets, a candy sale, and IMINAC. The money went towards regular band expenses, music, and repairs. Most of this money went to the bands spring trip. The band and orchestra went to a contest in Carlsbad, New Mexico. The Jamboree was held at Memorial Stadium on September 2nd, and the tickets were only 31.50, in which the band made a complete profit. The band recieved first divisions at the West Lake Marching Festival, and also recieved ones at U.l.L. Contest. When asked of their over all view of band, Beth Almanza and Michelle Siddons said, lt's a lot of hard work, but over all it's exciting and fun when we get out on the field to perform. A we W . .

All of the administration, faculty, staff, and students were very helpful and encouraging to me throughout the year, stated Cheryl Jones, the new choral director, about her first year. Jones had a one year appointment to teach here while Cindy Couch, former choir director, took a year's leave, but much was accomplished by the choir members and this new director. The choir sponsored two fund raisers to help payfortheirtripto Six Flagsinthe spring. They earned a total of about one-thousand dollars on such fund raisers as Heritage Tins filled with tootsie rolls, in the fall, and Flavor Shakers, which are glass containers with spices, in the spring. The Austin High Chorale took sweep- stakes at U.l.L. contest. They received straight one's across the board in both concert and sight reading contests, held at St. Martin's Lutheran Church. The choir not only did wellasawhole, but also as individuals, stated Sara Ftoucloux, junior member of the Austin High Chorale. Kathy Stice, senior first alto, and Paul Patterson, senior first tenor, both are members of the Chorale and both made or f T All-State Choir, held in San Antonio on W February tenth through fourteenth by the tw Fr Above: MS.Jones directs the Boys Choir at the Cultural Showcade.

Jones will not be returning, but says she will stay in the district and teach at one of the other high schools. l've grown very close to many of the students and will miss them very much, stated Jones about her choir members.

Sweepstakes swept through the Music Hall. Honors band, Symphonic band, Stage band, and Orchestra all had found raisers of selling candy and Soft-Suede to raise money for their Spring trip. The Band Parents Organization also held fundraisers such as car washes and selling pizza kits. Over 36,000 was earned, and the students made up the difference because the trip cost 585.00 per person. These groups went to Carlsbad, New Mexico for their trip. The contests were held at the Civic Center in Carlsbad on May 6th. The Honors band, Stage band, and Orchestra all made one's and sweepstakes. The Stage band not only made sweepstakes, but also best band overall. Orchestra - very good! Stage band - OUTSTANDING! stated LaFalco Robinson, Orchestra and Stage band director. Overall, it was a very successful trip with little known problems. The kids enjoyed the caverns and Lake Carlsbad, said Rosendo Sanchez, director of the Honors band, about the trip to New Mexico. Sanchez was returning for his third year, and this was Randall Smith's, assistant band director and director of the Symphonic band, second year. Smith may not be returning because he was a part time teacher and he just graduated with a Masters of Music from the University of Texas, but Sanchez says, We are working on him staying at A.H.S. Orchestra and Stage band also did very well at U.l.L. contest held at Lyndon Baines Johnson High School here in Austin. Both of them received scores of 1's, Robinson stated about the groups in which he has been teaching for twenty-one years.

Red Dragons pull out a fine year of plays I learned alot about the Jewish faith working on Tevia. We went to synogague and I liked it Laura Veselka. Red Dragons had a very productive year. Their year began with the decision of plays to produce. Their fall play tSee page 1141 Dracula was a great success. The Red Dragons also produced a Student Talent or Cabaret Show. The idea was taken from a Centennial Production produced in 1980. Cyndi Barbour took the idea and ran with it! , said Karen Bollinger, 12th grade. She continued There was a lot of talent in that show, and it was student produced which really made it special. Their one act play, Tevia's Daughters was taken from Fiddler on the Roof. Their play was very successful, making alternate in Zone Contest, held at U.T. Performing Arts Center. The play did better than any other in the city, commented Larry Preas. The Red Dragons also served as a service organization. Paul Von Wupperfeld said, We participated in helping with the Special Olympics . TheclubhadabanquetinlateApriland gave awards to special leads. The Red Dragons made all of their money off their profitable ticket sales. Most of their money goes back into plays. This year Mrs. Candace Sorenson spent her spring in the Theatre. As a student teacher she produced the popular comedy, Charlie's Aunt . Sorensen said of the play l wanted to do a type of play l've never done before. Frank Salinas 12th grader said, l learned alot. This play was a first for most of us. The cast included 10 people and tickets cost 83.00. The whole production was a challenge for ever- yone closed Mrs. Sorenson.

All spirit organizations come alive. by Patrick Hagan and Amy Cook Change. All of the Austin High School's Spirit and Service Organizations under went it this year. After five years of service to our cheerleading squad, Ms. Leyla Cohmia stepped down. Ms. Jean McMillan, an American History teacher, was ready to take her place. I know it wasn't easy for Ms. McMillan to take over a new squad, but with lots of work and long hours she did a great job. Transition isn't easy for everyone, yet Ms. McMillan has helped out tremendously, said Cara Briggs, junior and varsity cheerleader. But change didn't stop there . . . Last year, Red Jackets went through a series of transitions. The Red Jackets went to the stands to cheer on the varsity football and basketball teams. The band took over the flag corps, so the R.J.'s became strictly a pep squad. I have really enjoyed working with this group -Sue Williams Another change was the succession of Ms. Rosemary Wieland to the job of Red Jacket sponsor, previously held by Anne McKinney. And last of all, the Austin High Steppers also put on a new look. The Steppers said, good-bye last May to Cindy Baker who left to be married. This summer, besides attending the American Drill Team School in Dallas, the girls said, hello to Sue Williams, their new sponsor. Part of the Stepper's new look was their different style of dancing. They left behind the more drilled style of dance, and gained a more jazzy, free style. Later in the summer, Captains Tracy Wallace and Shannon Fitzgerald attended another camp in Houston, where they received individual awards. Because of their involvement and talent, Tracy was ap- pointed tothe All American Drill Team and Shannon was honored in Who's Who in American Drill Teams, which are two of the highest honors received. The girls should really be proud of themselves for getting these awards, they are not as small as they think, said Williams of her captains. The whole team tcontinued on next pagej Perfor ABOVE: Beth Wilson leads a cheer as Steppers and Red Jackets follow. ff.

The Steppers sold candy and brasswear to pay for their expenses which included costumes, pom-poms, and other supplies such as markers and paper for decorating the school on football game days. I have really enjoyed working with this group, they are outstanding and very unique, said Williams about her group in closing. The Cheerleaders, like the Steppers, began their year with camp which was also at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Then in early August, the Cheerleaders met their new sponsor, McMillan. The squad was a young and vivacious one which brought a number of new cheers to the school. The Cheerleaders did an excellentjobin organizing and carrying our spirit, said McMillan. The squad did this by holding mini-spirit workshops during Freshman gym classes. This seemed to help the students learn more cheers, l feel cheerleading is very much worth it! It takes a lot of time, but it made me feel good because I was doing something to better Austin High, said Cyndy Goodrich, junior, varsity cheer- leader, of the academic part of cheerleading. Academics are vital . . . but extra-curricular activities enhance . . . a well rounded studentf' -Jean McMillan Janet Crouch, also a junior and a varsity cheerleader, said, lt was a lot of work, but it brought me closer to school, and it made me do my work because it made me care. In agreement, McMillan said, Academics are a vital part of school learning. Yet, extra-curricular activities enhance part of what the faculty is working for . . . a well rounded student. As said earlier, Red Jackets under went a drastic change, but our oldest spirit and service organization still kept their charm. The Red Jackets sold the traditional game spirit ribbons, which are a usual purchase of fifty cents on a game day. They also sold PTSA breakfast tickets and Jamboree tickets along with the band and Steppers. With their profits, the Ft.J.'s bought paper and paints for decorating the locker room and goody bags for the teams. The Red Jackets will take over Steppers next year, so they'll be changing again, but Rosemary Wieland said of her girls, I enjoyed working with them, they contributed a lot of effort and work.

Cabaret Show by Students by Amy Cook and Patrick Hagan The Performing Arts Department held no musical this year. Instead, a cabaret show was produced. Cyndy Barbour, with the aid of Larry Preas, La falco Robinson, and the Orchestra, produced the show. Although the performance wasn't sponsored by the choir, it was strictly songs from old Broadway Shows. The show was held in January and tickets were 33.00. Refreshments were done in a totally different way, we had waiters and waitresses to bring cokes and cookies to your table, said Scott Friedman, senior. Many different Numbers were per- formed. Among the favorites were Sara Floucloux and Steven Sparks Oklahoma, and Michael Swearingen's Hello Dolly. I wanted to put on a show that all people could enjoy, and I think we succeeded! said Cyndy Barbour in closing. Q-S -is S Q is VJ ' o 33, tg?

Fifty-Seven Take Stage for October Play When asked, Why perform Dracula?, Larry Preas, Drama Director, responded, We wanted a show that consisted of many people and also Dracula is a good seasonal play. And that's exactly what it was, stated Lee Ann Bluhm, junior that attended the Red Dragon's version of Dracula, shown Oct. 28, 29, 30, and Halloween Night. More than 90 people helped in the preparation of the play, in which 57 were actually on stage. The cast took three weeks to learn the script, while crews took only two and a half weeks to set the stage. Tickets were three dollars a head, and the money earned went into the theater funds to help operate future plays. Diane Arp, former Drama Teacher, along with many others, including the production class, helped put the show together. We use anybody we can get, but the ideas come out of the department, said Preas. Lucy, Dracula's love, played by Tracy Nunn said, It was a real big learning experience being on stage for the first time. I really enjoyed it. The reusable thrust stage used in the play contained a 'Platform of Death'. lt was a ten feet high platform that was fought on, danced on, and slept on. While was frightening to everyone at first, the reason we used it, was to give the audience a feeling of Dracula hanging over the people at all times, said Mike Frisbie, senior, who starred as Dracula. -Patrick Hagan and Amy Cook , 113 l VN!

Several members of the Senior class got together to ride in Gayla Bryant's jeep and dress like people from the 1920's as part of the Homecoming Parade on Oct. 8. The implementation of the Honors Graduation Program also led seniors to take a heavier course load than usual. Special electives offered for the program included Texas Studies, Calculus and a third year or beyond of a foreign language. Fifty students achieved the honor by maintaining a 90 grade point average aside with taking the difficult courses. Seniors also held a candy sale-fundraiser to pay for color Senior pictures in the yearbook as well as raise money for the Prom. The Senior Talent Show, another fundraiser for the class, was held May 13 with many skits. A group of girls danced to Michael Jackson's Beat lt , while on more sedate lines, Ricky Chaney, Dinn Mann, and Tony Diggs performed an hilarious ballet dance to classical music. Other skits included a choreographed dance to Freeze Frame and a musical skit to Copacabana performed by teachers Ben Molina, Leyla Cohlmia, Eva Arce, and Brendon Kenny. The Senior Picnic was held May 20 at Zilker Park. Flashflood watches did not daunt the seniors who braved the rapidly deteriorating weather to party once more before the Prom. On May 21, the class held the Senior Prom at the Hyatt Regency on Town Lake. Tickets were S6 for singles and S10 for couples. Extreme Heat performed many popular songs such as She Blinded Me With Science by Thomas Dolby. The Prom lasted from 8:30 to 12:30, and administrators felt it went very well. Baccalaureate was held the following day in the SFA gym. Guest speaker J.J. Pickle wished the 1983 class luck in the future. Commencement exercises came at last for the 1983 graduating class of Stephen F. Austin High and were held at Burger Center on May 24. The school graduated a class of 426 students. The confusion behind the scene was ex- traordinary. Seniors were hurriedly getting their caps and gowns situated and being seated by teachers in alphabetical order. The entourage of seniors proceeded en masse to the activity floor to begin exercises. Principle McGee recognized the fifty students who were graduating under the Honors Program. She then announced that Dudley McClellan had earned the honor of valedictorian, and his brother Bradley was salutatorian. Exercises ended with the students throwing their caps into the air as a sign of relief and exultation, and the rushing of students out of the auditorium area to give back their caps and gowns and begin celebrating their milestone. A graduation party was held by many seniors' parents at Saengerrunde Hall on San Jacinto. The party lasted from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. with Joe King Carasco performing for two 45 minute sets for dancing. -Melissa Hogarty QA, if21'5fflz5 ::- Lf 1,1 i I gifffifi 55 xriq 2 x :fini ieiisff? izftijll 1 1... . 4, ,,.y Charles Bayior K , K ':T5i 54' R P 1, , ,K- A -P 4 .M Kaihleefl BI8Ck 2 mmLfA g 1'KhA -L.- eg-gg Mrsvn Coiiins lDenniS Avf18 I v E A L if 5 ff , Charlie Bazan ,., M1 75 . rw' ., W L ' iv, jx T 5' in BObbi J.

I feel just the oppositeg this year has gone by the fastest for me. There were so many things I wanted to do, people I wanted to meet, but I just never found the time. I've had a good year, but not finding the time for these things bothers me. Will I always procrastinate like this? Am I forming self-destructing habits that perhaps my peers are, too? Or could I be in the same predicament the entire nation seems to be in: a stagnant state? The very idea scares me. I don't understand why we, the supposedly free citizens of the United States, have to worry about a Nuclear Arms Freeze or other dangerous things. It upsets me to think about what this world is coming to. We can't seem to get enough money together to give Texas teachers a pay raise, yet we expect to have a top-notch education system. At times I feel very pessimistic about the future and what it holds in store for me as well as all the graduates of '83. I often wonder why I spent so many many laborious hours trying to create an inter- esting, memorable year- book, when there is a constant threat of not being able to see the end product because of a nuclear attack or something. Now we have got one foot into a very complex age of computers, video technology, and electronics. Ten years ago, at the ripe old age of 8, I never even would have dreamed of all this, not even in my wildest dreams. High technology has been around a lot longer than I remember, but now it's I beginning to take over and become a dominant way of life. It offers many good job opportunities to a few, but it excludes many people who need jobs, and are not high tech oriented. Not to mention it relieves some people of their present job because they are no longer needed. I feel sorry for the people who have not had the opportunities that I've had. I've been able to complete my elementary schooling through high school, and I plan to further my education by going on to college, because I know I won't be able to go very far without a college degree. But even for those who do have degrees, jobs are scarce in the near vicinity. Texas has been pretty lucky, with a low unemployment rate in the middle of a recession, but now with all these Northerners moving down here, there is nothing left for those of Closing us who are already here. The uncertainty of the United States' position or almost all national issues is what scares me the most But it is also what makes me optimistic about the future. I know that the SFA class of '83 will bring changes and ideas not only to Austin and Texas, bu also quite possibly the world. I feel certain there are scientists, mathematicians and economists who will help pull the U.S. out of its slump, and turn things around. Although it is a challenging, adventurous, maybe even dangerous road ahead of us, I'm sure the majority of us will overcome adversities life kicks in our way, and make this a safe world to enjoy again. I would like to thank everyone who helped me put out this yearbook. Most of the staff members were returners, but we had several new faces in room 335 too. Megan Roach, my assistant editor, really did a terrific job. She often kept me from screaming, although l'm quite sure she, too, felt like it. She organized several sections and got them running smoothly. I really enjoyed her company and sense of humor, especially when we were here after school working on our pages. The rest of the staff worked well together. The returnees initiated the newcomers, who caught on very fast. Last year we started new ways to accomplish things, so this year we just polished and perfected things. I want to thank the photographers who took a lot of slack from us, but managed to do their assignments. Mike Gomez, the head photographer, ran his staff pretty efficiently. Jacob Villarreal and Kerstin Otto helped Mike shoot the different events that needed to be taken for pictorial remembrance in the yearbook. And I especially want to thank Aron Kluth for dividing his time and energies between the photography staff and writing staff. I really appreciate him coming up here for a week after seniors were let out to print up last minute pictures for everyone. This has been my last year as a member of the Comet staff and student of SFA. In some ways I will miss it very much, but I am looking forward to the unknown ahead. I will look back and smile at the times, good and bad, I've had at Austin High and I will miss it. Now I want to recognize Melanie DuPuy as the 1983-1984 Comet editor. I'm handing over all my pica sticks and croppers, and I wish her the best of luck! -Missy Hogarty L...........,,.g,,,
