Seperate Orientation, Mini Classes, Greet Newcomers On June 14, 1980, Moody Ju- nior High officially dosed with a reunion for all classes that had graduated from the building when it served as the high school. As a result, the 1980- SI school year marked the first time the present high school build ing (Occupied in 1959) housed all four classes. In April, all eighth and ninth graders from Moody and Heskett plus transfer students from St. Mary's and St. Pius got an early look at BHS. Over a six-day span, 850 people took tours of the high school. Junior high students were shown the particular academic area in which they were interest ed. 2----Opening DIRECTING.

The following Tuesday, all freshmen went to their new school for orientation, and on Wednes day, the sophomores spent a day at BHS by themselves. When upperclassmen joined them on September 4, Bedford High School hallways were more crowded than they had ever been.

The best way Farnsworth s wife and secre tary could get rid of him was to have him shot. Comradery And Cooperation Characterize the cast of “Heaven Can Wait” Playing Joe Pendleton was a chance of a lifetime.'’ commented Dave Delambo. ‘Getting a lead role in a big production such as Heaven Can Wait is rare. Maggie Lovano, who portrayed Betty Logan. Farnsworth s lover, enjoyed her part because she was a lot like me. Maggie added. Betty was a little help- less at first, but she still wanted to be treated like a lady. Everybody got along—there was no backstabbing like there was in the two former productions. com mented Director Mary Ann Costa. There was more of a spirit of cooperation with Heaven Can Wait, prob- ably because I enforced the attendance contract. The form, which each cast member was required to sign, stated that a person is allowed three absences from rehearsals, including tardies and early dismissals. On the fourth absence, the violator is automatically dropped from the cast. In every play we reach a low point when the ac- “Everybody got along—there was no backstabbing like there was in the two former productions......” tors are just learning their parts, according to Mrs. Costa. But after the lines are memorized, we can be- gin to work on character. Kathi Kainsinger remarked. Costa give us a rehearsal schedule; two weeks after we started practicing, we were supposed to know our lines. She added. Most of us kept scripts backstage and looked over our parts before our entrances. The day before final dress rehearsal, cast members worked backstage during the school day to help build the set. Costa recalled. They worked for a common cause ... it got them psyched for the show.” Kainsinger felt that It was our responsibility to help with the set. and it brought the cast closer. But all matters did not run smoothly with the stage crew. Technical Director John Seaman commented, We ran into troubles with the smoke machine. The smoke was to give the impression of clouds in heaven, but there was a strong draft and it blew backstage. No problem—Heaven Can Wait for the clouds. LAST-MINUTE.

This festiv Ity lasted from 7:30—12:00 and was followed by Post Prom, which ended at 4:00 A M. Mr. DiPiero, who offL dally resigned as advisor at the end of the school year, stated. During my eight years as junior class ad- visor, this was the best prom: the students were really organized. In the fall of 1979, the junior class raised its first $600.00 toward the prom by taking part in the annual BHS candy sale. However, the biggest fund raiser, the RockoThon, was very successful. remarked Junior Class President Craig Koteles. With only fiveminute breaks every hour, members of the Class Advisory Board rocked in chairs in the cafeteria for 12 hours, be ginning at 7:00 P.M. on January 26. The whole evening was so wonderful, it was like a fantasy. I wished it would nev- er end.” If any participant dozed, Mr. DiPiero blasted a horn in his ear. Sponsored by classmates, relatives and local businessmen, the rockers collected over $800.00. But we still needed more money. Craig continued. So I spoke before the Bedford Kiwanis. After my presenta- tion. the board gave about $250.00 for the prom. Voting for Prom Queen and the two attendants be- gan a month before the festivities. Juniors nominated ten girls in the cafeteria information center. explained class treasurer Kathy Klukan. Later, the list was nar- rowed down to seven.

Relocating From Blossom Music Center to the Front Row Theatre Overall, with the exception of the Uebele In- cident, things went well. It was not outst- anding. but It wasn’t a fiasco, stated Senior class advisor Bill Fudge. On the positive side, four vale- dictorians. instead of just one were chosen because the difference in their grade point averages was .03 of 1 point. Debbie Bowman. Kim Curtis. Peggy Wardlow. and Mary Ellen Weber each spoke on “What Educa tlon Means To Me . The salutarian was Denise Lachowski. Senior Speaker for the evening was Janet Voginl, who was chosen after two auditions. Her speech was on “The Value of High School Years”. After the opening speeches. Commencement was marred by Greg Uebele. who before recieving his dipl- oma. tore off his cap and grown and threw them down on the stage. Under his robe he wore jeans and a green t-shirt, with lettering on the front that read “Should I Be Proud?”, and on the back. “No Way!” Uebele did not recieve the approval of the audi- “Blossom was good for the Choir, but the Front Row will be nice since we haven’t been there before.” Tsrrrw: ence. Dorothy Titterington. an A Cappella Choir mem- ber said. “I don’t think anyone admired him for it.” Ju- nior Keith Turner felt, “The incident hurt me. I don’t feel that it was called for. And. I felt sorry for those who graduated.” Beginning with the class of 1981, Commencement will take place at the Front Row Theatre. The Uebele inci- dent was not the entire reason for the move. Holding it at the Front Row will be approximately a 50 percent reduction in price. Decreasing graduating class enroll- ment—from 577 in 1973, the highest in the school’s his- tory. to 435 in 1980, a 25.5 percent loss—was another reason. Vicki Capaldo, an A Cappella Choir member said. “Blossom was good for the Choir, but the Front Row will be nice because many people have never been there before.” Graduation PROUD.

In order to show her horse Bat fle every other weekend in the summer, Linda s transpor tation costs included a truck, a trailer, $36 license plates, and gasoline. Linda added. To buy the truck which hauls the trailer, my dad. my brother Steve and I cleaned stables. In addition to these expenses, er trance fees rose to $6 per event for noncounty fairs. Un da competed in fairs sponsored by 4H and earned one of the 15 Cuyahoga County nominations to show at the Ohio State Fair. Every summer my family takes a vacation out west. We used to stay in motels, but for the past three years, we stayed at campgrounds, stated Brett Phillips. During the summer of 1980 the Phillips drove to Wyoming and Colorado, where they camped in tents at Yellowstone, Grand Tetons. and Bridger National Forest. A site without “Marty people couldn't afford fun scale vacations, so they went to fairs for a day or two. ” running water costs $3.00 per night, compared to a mint mum of $50.00 for a motel room. In addition to rising lodging costs. Brett noticed a big change in gas prices from the year before. We had to cut down the length of our trip by a few days because gas was too expensive out west. Inflation had a positive effect on the carnival business, according to Bret Johnson, who worked for Bubble Gum Concessions at fairs in Ohio. I didn’t think we’d have as much business as other years because of rising prices. But many people couldn’t afford full-scale vacations, so they went to fairs for a day or two. More people came than ever before. Bret served as general manager for his brother Keith’s consesslon company, which included ten trailers. Some weeks, the trailers were spread out in several places, and I would be in charge of one fair, explained Bret. Besides managing, he also made and sold the food, and trained other workers.

Freedom of the American Hostages Highlights 1980-1981 didn’t even know there were active volcanos in the U.S., I was surprised. This was the reaction of Marie Mackrts when asked what she thought of Mount Saint Helen’s eruption. Joe Cifani replied. It’s pretty neat. The mountain blew up in hundreds of people’s faces. Mount Saint Helen erupted seven times from May 18 to October 17. 1980. The most serious damage was done during the first eruption, which re- sulted In hundreds of deaths and property dam age Television viewers throughout the late sum- mer and early fall watched many repeats due to the actors’ strike lasting from July 21 to Oc tober 23. According to Ja- net Chimenti. The actors made enough money so they didn’t need all the benefits they wanted. Kathy Zaharewicz said. I don’t think the big names, such as Ed Asner and James Garner, should re- ceive any more for doing their T V. shows. The under studies and the smaller ac- tors should receive an in- crease in their salaries. We should blow Iran off the map. was the opinion of Mike Belslto towards the Iranian crisis. On November 4. 1979, sixty-three Amen cans were taken hostage by the Iranians. Although President Carter ordered an attempt to rescue the hostages on April 24. 1980, It failed due to mechanical problems, and the fifty two remaining Americans wer en’t released until January 20. 1981. Marie Mackris felt. It’s a shame Iran has to be a mean country. I hope all the ex-hostages recover mentally from the ordeal. The 1980 election was held on Tuesday. Novem ber 4th. Reagan had 51 percent of the popular vote. Carter had 43 per cent, and Anderson had 6 percent. Everyone who becomes President does Ns own thing. I’m going to wait and see how he goes about making decisions and actions, replied Ja- net Chimenti when asked what she thought about Reagan winning the elec tion. Delmar Thompson said. I think he will be a good President but he is too old. I don’t think he will make it more than two years in office. Reagan turned seventy shortly after his inauguration on January 20. 1981. making him the oldest man to hold the pre- sidents office. Murdered on December 8. 1980, Lennon was on the verge of a comeback to the younger generations of the seventies. But he didn’t quite make it. Joe Cifani said, I could care less. The Beatles were noth- ing to me. They were be- fore my time. In Contrast. Marie Mackris replied. It ruined any hope of getting the Beatles back togeth- er. I was happy seeing a winning team come from Cleveland. This is the first time I have seen a cham- pionship team come from our city in a long time, re- marked Mickey Erdos. Dur ing the 8081 football sea son. the Cleveland Browns won the Central Division Ti- tle. This whole season was terribly rough on my nerves, but I guess the Browns like to win and lose games in the final mo- ments. remarked Dan An- nett. The Browns clinched the title in the last game against the Cincinnati Ber gals. This was the first time the Browns had been in the playoffs since 1972.

Twenty youth and adults from the Bed ford First United Methodist Church helped repair the homes of poverty-stricken people in the mountains of Eastern Kentucky. LuAnn Morrison thought participating In ASP was worthwhile because It helps people who can’t help themselves. Some friends thought I was strange for doing it with- out getting paid. remarked Roberta Davis. Instead, the youth group spent one year raising the necessary $2000 before leaving on July 12, 1980. The money— used for room and board, transportation and sup- plies—was acquired via a rockothon, slave days, church dinners and donations. said Paula Kibelbek. Earning money was not the only preparation needed “We practiced by helping with construction in the church, such as drywalling the bathroom . . . before heading south. We had sessions that helped us learn about the people, how they felt about us. and the work we would be doing. remarked Roberta Da vis. Morrison, a third-year ASP veteran, continued. We practiced by helping with construction in the church, such as drywalling and ‘mudding’ the bathroom. Even though each person paid $45.00 to stay in Plppa Passes for a week, the group was quartered in a condemned high school. Rats would have a hard time living there! exclaimed Ben Jarvis, who got mono because of the damp and wet conditions. The girls’ room, although far from damp, also left much to be desired. Paula Kibelbek recalled. We got suffocat ed with dust if we hit the mattresses, and there were only two showers for about six million girls. Before we started working on the new house, the family felt apprehensive, commented Rev. Jim Foster, a leader of one of Bedford’s three groups. Lisa Toth added, The families got to know that someone cares about them. Appalachian Service Project 19 Complying With federal laws results in new ramps at Bedford TESTING.

Mr Wat lace Murray uses the ceremonial scissors while Kim Knorr simultaneously cuts the rit bon with a smaller pair According to Kim. watching herself on TV “was very exciting By Installing three new ramps for persons confined to wheelchairs, Bedford High School has com- piled with a Federal law which states that all pub- lic buildings must be acceslble to handicapped per sons. Other students took advantage of these new facilities, as well as Kim Knorr and Brent Bradley, the two wheelchair students. According to Ann Hamilton, Communications Coordinator, The Bedford Board thought of first Install- ing elevators or chairlifts, but decided that the ramps would be more economical. Being economical was not the only reason for choosing the ramps over the chairlifts. She added. If we built chairlifts there would be times when they would break down, and we would have to keep paying out money to have them fixed. With the ramps, you wouldn’t have to pay much to have them fixed. The cost of building the ramps was “It was very uncomfortable for me, because after every class, someone had to help me down the stairs . . a total of $81,400, of which two thousand was given by the government, and $79,400 was provided by the school system. All the advertising for the construction of the ramps was handled by Donald Wellamyer. The architect hired to design the ramps was Richard Edberg, and Dunlop and Johnson Inc., were the contractors who built them. Actual construction of the ramps began in August 1980, and was completed in the final weeks of Sep- tember. Wallace Murray, Executive Director of Pupil Ser vices stated that the contractors had a few problems. He commented. The builders had to tear out the floor in the area by the Home Ec rooms completely, and make a new foundation for reinforcement. After the new ramps were installed. Kim Knorr com- mented, Before they were built. I had to use the stair ways. she continued. It was very uncomfortable for me, because after every class, someone had to help me down the stairs. Besides, It took too much time for me to take the stairway. 20 Ramps for Handicapped Ramps for Handicapped JAMMING. Beating out the tune Vera Cru2 on the xylophone.

Although the Spirit Week festivities—including Twins Day. 50's Day. Western Day and Green White Day- remained the same as they had in the past, three mo jor changes were initiated for the 1980 Homecoming. Revisions were introduced to make Spirit B more controlled and organized. according to Cheerleader Maria Weaver. In past years, the only judging criterion was general enthusiasm . In 1980, each of the classes was rated on two additional categories: the class cheer and use of signs and noisemakers. Another change In Spirit B format was the exclusion of the “After a lot of thinking, I realized keeping the band separate from the four classes was dumb..............................” Marching Band as a competitor.

Athletic Program Expands, Current Facilities Cramped As a result of the added fresh- men class, the expanded athletic program cramped ex- isting facilities. New interscholastic sports included ninth grade footbaH, wresting, and girls’ and boys' bas ketbaK. Only one freshman signed up for golf; two girls went out for volleyball; and no ninth graders joined the cross country team. Because the gym was needed by six basketbat teams during the winter, the freshmen boys played their “home games” at Heskett. The ninth grade girls practiced at the YMCA, Heskett, or wherever they found an empty gym. Sports —25 WATERLOGGED. While Karen Arters asks how her- teammate is feeling.

Bowman added. “Puza also lectured us on behavior and attitudes in the pool and toward each other.” Four events qualified for the state meet. The 400 freestyle relay team consisting of Denise Tomondy.

The team began the season with two early wins in the B.U.G. and Stowe W.R.A. relays, something which had not been done since 1975.

Flrstbaseman Alice Petak said the greatest change in practice was drills. Instead of just hitting all the time, we worked on plays in the infield. Because the boys’ baseball teams monopolized both high school diamonds, it was the girls who had to find other practice areas. I hated going to Taft Park every day. recalled Chris Speziale. whose 13-1 record was tops in the division. Judy Schwab added. It was tough, especially on the JV’s; they had to go to Central School for games. Coach Earl commented. We would rather play at the high school, but the mainte- nance of city-owned Taft field was our greatest hassle.

Because nine of the seventeen Varsity Baseball members were juniors, all seniors (except relief pitchers) started, and five eleventh graders were in every game during the 1980 season. “That’s unusual.” according to the coach. Last year, no juniors started, although George Gaspare and Mario Bienvenue played often.” “The year before, we had more talent.” re- marked relief pitcher Ron Konik. “Bob Kanopa struck out more than half of the batters. Our field- ers didn't have to do anything.” Coach Loettler added, “Every time Bob pitched, we counted on strikeouts.” Rick Barnes, who averaged 2.1 earned runs during his 50 innings on the mound, admitted. “It’s hard following Kanopa.” Barnes, however, succeeded in pitching three of the four confer ence victories, including the entire ten-inning 2-0 shut-out over Mentor. “We didn’t have consistency of pitching, hitting or fielding. We made enough errors to lose—we gave up runs,” remarked Loeffler.

Outfielder Kevin Nietert analyzed the problem when he said. We practiced hitting in the wres- tling room and our pitchers lobbed the ball at us. Then when we faced the guys from the other teams, they were just plain good. They blew the ball past us.” With the team's leading batting average of .314, catcher Chris Rote added, We were hurting with our pitching. The JV pitching staff gave up thirty nine runs while Bedford scored only five in the first five games. One memorable point for third baseman Trent Spencer was the Parma game. We went into the Parma game mad. It was rumored that their coach was going to start his second string. Parma’s strategy backfired, as Bedford buried them, 9-5, for their second consecutive win of the season. During this game. Bedford uncovered another pitcher. Reliefer Dale Blackburn entered the game In the sixth inning after starter Mike Flachbart had given up a double and two homeruns. During the remainder of that inning and the seventh inning, the southpaw allowed no hits or runs, preserved the 9-5 victory and established himself as a pitch- er. Dale ended the season with the best ERA aver age on the team (2.48). Chris Rote explained, “Dale had the best control and an effective knuckleball.’’ Other team standouts included pitcher Jamie Batten, who hit three homeruns and lead the team with 11 RBI’s.

The 1980 81 varsity basketball team set a record for the most victo ries In one season (thirteen). In the contest against Mayfield, the team scored a record 90 points, of which Nicole Jackson contributed 38. Mary Dashko remarked, It was the best year Bedford ever had. Going to summer camp helped.

Each conference plays with a different style. During the course of the game, six techno cal fouls were called on the Lorain team. After committimg three of those fouls himself, the Admiral King coach was eventually ordered to leave the gymnasium. Although Nicole Jackson made all of six free shots, Bedford lost the game by one point. Anne McAdoo did not travel to Lo rain with her team, but she noticed a different mental attitude in our players after the game Everybody had a low attitude, and we all lost confidence.

Junior Linda DeLuca continued, First, we practiced at Heskett; then we move to the YMCA. but It was too small. We moved back to Bedford and got onefourth of the gym. Elizabeth McNellie re marked. We could never practice fultcourt. It’s bad to have two teams (varsity and JV) sharing half a gym. We got in each others’ way. Tracy Sprinkle thought It was OK to walk over to the Y when the weather was warm, but on cold days, we would rather have stayed at the high school.

I'd rather have our games at Bedford so our own classmates could stay after school to watch the games, com- mented Dorren Goga. Diane Kallos thought it was more convenient to have games at BHS, but I liked Heskett better because it wasn't as big. Freshman Tracy Sprinkle, who played on the JV team, wondered why the varsity never had to go over to the Y and Heskett. In Mr. Hennon’s first year of coach ing, the junior varsity girts compiled the best record in the team’s history. Having beat each conference team at least once, Bedford finished sec ond in the GCC at 104. We were the only team to beat Easttake in at least two years. according to Hennon. Tracy Sprinkle recalled. In the Eastlake game, we went into overtime. Then we were down by one point with a few seconds to go, and Mikki Nowdon made the winning 17-foot basket in the last eight seconds.

When Mr. Farnell resigned. Sigmund took over the head varsity position. In addition to the freshmen team. Mr. Heard coached the junior varsity players. “The only disadvantage was that we had to change for every coach. None were better or worse than the others, but we had to change our style of playing, com mented Bob Thompson. Under Heard's coaching, the team won five out of six games. “We won more after Heard took over be cause of a new offense, a zone press, and we took our time with the ball. remarked Robinson. Thompson explained. “Because we ran the ball and scrimmaged more, we started scoring more points in our games. Rick Dolejs added. “In the last four games, we ran the of- fense and put in a trap defense against their presses. That kept us in a lot of games when we otherwise wouldn't have had a chance.” The freshmen team, also coached by Mr. Heard, “lost five games by three points or less. When we were far behind, we would play well and catch up. Then we d relax, and get beaten at the end.” stated Art Curtis. Heard added. “We used the man-toman defense with the freshmen, too. We stayed with it even though we could have won with the zone.” John Fealkovich thought, “We should have mixed zone with man- toman. But we'll have some neces- sary skills when we go up to varsi- ty.” Rich Putich continued. “In the Garfield game, we were down, 20-8 at the half. We switched to a zone defense, and tied up the score.” “Since we only had one gym for six basketball teams, it was a hassle scheduling practices and games.” remarked the ninth grade coach. J.V. and Freshmen Boys’ Basketball— Boys Girls Teams Combine Season An order from the state required all Ohio high schools to combine swim team seasons during the win- ter. instead of the tradtional separa tlon with boys swimming during the winter and girls in the spring. Head Coach Chris Puza commented. “80 percent of the coaches opposed It, but the Ohio High School Athletic Association pushed it through. “We got in the guys' way and we couldn’t keep up with them. ” Senior LuAnn Morrison stated. It was hard because we got in the guys' way. and we couldn't keep up with them. Midway through the season, we were separated for workouts. We were killing our- selves. and the guys weren't work- ing. Both teams worked out every day. and they alternated practice times each day. The coaches also provided swimmers with the oppor tunity of morning workouts (from 6:007:15). The practices were hard- er. as Sue Zaharewicz explained. We did more wheels this year than last year. And we had to make a certain time with pulse counts. Dale McRitchie also shared his view of practices. “The hardest thing we did at workouts was trying to beat a certain time ten times in a row. “Brush was out to get us . . . we were all on the edge of our seats. ” We had to keep swimming ’til we beat it. Another assistant was hired to coach diving. Scott Andrus, a ‘79 BHS graduate, served as instructor to Dave Santoli and the other divers. Dave commented, Last year. I didn’t have a fulltime coach, and for part of the season. I didn't have one at all. This year. Scott made a big difference. Santoli said he had hoped for a 7-3 season, but the boys, after meeting and losing to their toughest com- petitors. Brush and Euclid, ended the year with a 5-5 final. The girls’ team finished its season with a 7-3 record. The biggest tri- umph was defeating arch rival Brush. 91-81. in a meet that wasn’t decided until the last seconds of the last event. Diver Lori Hackbart stated. “Brush is our rival; they were out to get us. The meet was close, we were all on the edge of our seats.

With the new four year program at the high school there was an addi- tion of seven new (co-ed) intramural events. However, the freshmen boys were not permitted to partici- pate in basketball. “I am the refer- ee of every game and I don't want to see them get hurt, commented Mr. Korduba. This year's program featured com- petition in arm wrestling, Physical Fit- ness, a male 5 mile run and a fe- male 3 mile run, decathalon, weight lifting, and soccer. In order to play soccer, the width of the football field was used. This allowed two games to be played at the same time. The winners of the Physical Fitness contest were judged on the num- ber of sit-ups, pushups, chin-ups, rope climbing and other calisthen- ics the students completed. The decathalon was composed of in- door sports; students competed in the 40 yard dash, standing broad jump and other coordination tests. The arm wrestling contests were subdivided into two divisions for each sex. Weight lifters had seven divisions for boys and six divisions for the girls. 1980 81 was an experimental year for the new intramural events. When it is over, the trophies are handed out and pictures are taken of the champions. remarked Mr. Korduba. EXTENSION. Using the leg machine.

Sue was the only person from Bed ford to attend the conference. As a delegate. Sue campaigned for Ohio officers, and the issue of the raising of dues. The cost of joining the regional chapter of VICA in 1980 was $7.00. The 43 Bedford High students who were members could participate in the regional competitions. To join only the BHS unit of VICA. students in the industrial and vocational de- partments paid $3.50. All but one of the 40 girls in cosmetology were in the school's club. In the competition for Bedford High School's 1980 VICA Queen, twelve girls filled out resumes, and each was asked questions from her sheet. The girls were then judged on personal appearance and took a written test on the different as- pects of the club, such as the motto and pledge. Out of the twelve, five finalists were called back for interviews. Questions pertained to the club and general knowledge. Sue Penix, who was chosen as queen, ex- claimed. I was surprised; I didn't expect to win. Juniors Treleen Fer ry and Cindy Semple were select ed as first and second attendants. Club Projects Brighten Lives Lack of communication between the officers was the biggest prob- lem in planning the Harvest Hop,” commented Ellen Bobek, recording secretary of Friendship Club. Ellen further stated, Problems resulted in getting people to attend work ses- sions.” Patti Mallin, the club's art di- rector, said, We had trouble set ting our priorities straight as to who was responsible for seeing that each job was done.” The theme for the dance, which approximately 115 couples attend- ed, was Longer (by Dan Folgeberg). Friendship Club sponsored the dance on October 18, 1980 from 8:0011:30 P.M. Clean Slate was the band hired to play, but according to President Beth Pasek, “The band only plays in bars, and it doesn’t lend out tapes, so we hired them without an audition.” In order to be elligible to run for queen, the girl must be a senior and have first, second, and third year service pins. In 1980, only three girls met the qualifications, so the club did not have to vote to re- duce the number of candidates. Karen Arters reigned over the dance and her court consisted of Patti Mallin and Beth Pasek. As a service project. Friendship Club sponsored a Christmas party for underprivileged children in the Bedford area.

Maggie Lovano continued, The audience liked to be included. They had a part in it; they weren’t just watch- ing. One aspect of audience par ticipation took place during the first act when Jason Summers (Mike Halko) introduced each of the au- thors, and announced that the audi- ence could applaud if they want- ed. Play goers were caught unaware when the Box Office Girl staggered down the aisle yelling that the punch which was sold dur ing Intermission was poisoned. Keith Goad commented. The audience was shocked! They wondered if the punch was really poisoned or not. I was a little nervous at first, but after a week I fell right in place with everyone else, commented Paul Woodard on his major stage debut in Done to Death. Woodard had performed in plays at Heskett Jr. High, but he felt that Done to Death was more professionally di- rected and more organized. Mrs. Costa commented. “Paul did a good job. He adapted well to the other actors, and he handled him- self well. Imagination scenes, according to most of the cast, were one of the highlights of the production. Mike Halko stated, They were the most important aspect of the play. He added, Without those scenes the show wouldn’t have worked. Maggie Lovano felt they gave the audience a chance to know what type of writing style each author had. Thearts' Fall Play HONORED.

Only forty-two couples were present to dance to the music of Stargazlr on December 20, 1980. Vice President Gina DePompei felt that the low attendance was due to It being a bad time of the year. “Around Christmas, people are buying gifts, and they don't have the money to attend the dance. To raise money for the event, the club sponsored the Sweetest Day flower sale. The carnations were sold at 75c a piece between Octo- ber 1 and October 15, 1980. Ac- cording to Kathi Kainsinger.

Mr. Sullivan tried a new approach to marching band in 1980; he held four summer practices to get the band familiar with the music and to introduce the new assistant direc tor. Mrs. Scheuffler.

Band members wore yellow ribbons while playing for the audience. At 8:00 p.m., the lights on the football field were dimmed and the specta tors lit candles.

Seniors presented Mr. Sullivan with gifts, including a plaque with broken drum sticks and a drum key, a poster of the director tack- ling Pittsburgh’s Terry Bradshaw, and a Cleveland Brown’s pennant. The annual Senior Skit was a comical rendition of “The Week of Band Camp”. The Symphonic and Concert Bands, under the direction of Mrs. Scheuffler, combined and played together at the Band Contest. BHS Art Festival, and gave a concert in May. These two bands combined and played terrifically together, re- marked Mrs. Scheuffler. To pay for the transportation needed when the band traveled to perform in contests, shows, and the Republican Rally, band members sponsored several money making campaigns. They sold cheese and sausage, worked at Gold Circle, and took inventory at Higbees and The May Co. All profits went toward the buses and band uniforms. The Jazz Ensemble hosted a Jazz Festival in which the University of Ak ron Jazz Band and three other area high school bands attended. The Ensemble also performed at the Lakeland Jazz Festival and at Case Western Reserve. This ensem ble has potential.

Even with the addition of ninth graders, the total enrollment decreased from 200 In 1980 to about 150. “With fifty less skiers, we only needed four buses instead of five, commented chap- eron Mr. Kunkel. Skiers not only required to pur- chase lift tags, but they also had to pay a ten-dollar transportation fee because the Board of Educa tlon stopped paying for the buses ' according to Mr. Kunkel. The price, including rentals, was $60.00 in 1981, and $45.00 without rental equiment. It’s a great price for ski- ing six times, according to senior Monica Milewski. The buses arrived at Brandywine every Thursday at about 5:30 and returned to the high school at about 10:30 PM. “I like it better than In junior high,” commented Robin Keys. With Moody's club, stu- dents only had three hours of skiing time, compared to four hours with Bedford High School s club. Brandywine developed a new hiN for the 8081 season as a challenge to advanced skiers. Woods were cleared, and Zombie was Intro duced as the steepest hill at the ski resort.

Each of flee usually has three people work- ing during each period. “The stu- dents put mail in the boxes. They also go up to the Resource Center to copy materials on 'Bertha',” re- marked Mrs. Romito. Student helpers even looked after the office when the secretary was eating her lunch. “When the secre- taries are on their break, I type pa pers they need typed. They usually find jobs for us to do,” stated Nora Somera. Occasionally the pace slowed down, and the students used the time for a study hall. I used my free time to do homework, re called Randy Ruch, but that rarely happened.” The Media Department was head- ed by Mrs. Romito. She comment ed, Usually, there are two people working in the audio visual room.” The student helpers’ jobs varied from day to day. “Our work includ- ed repairing the equipment and delivering it to the classrooms. If ary other area of the Resource Center needs a student, they will borrow one of us,” remarked Ron Galo. Another group within the media department was Lighting Unlimited The crew, directed by Mr. John Seaman, operated the lighting, sound, video, and special effects for theater and music productions in the auditorium. The crew’s major job during the 1980-81 school year was providing the technical as pects of the Thearts musical, The Music Man. “Lighting Unlimited is a selective group.

Additional first-year foreign lan- guage classes were added. Stu- dents could take semester-long in- dustrial arts courses instead of the full-year classes of previous years, so they had the opportunity to gain experience in more shop areas. The art department offered two new courses, studio ceramics and stuck) crafts. Academics —91 It’s Required In order to graduate from Bedford High School, a student must have completed a minimum of seven- teen credits. Everyone needed ma- jors (three credits) In English and so- cial studies, one unit each of mathematics, science and physical education, one-half credit in health, and seven and one-half additional units of electives. Since all students were required to take English I in their freshmen year, ninth grade English was taught at Bedford High for the first time in the building s history. Basic Compo- sition and Grammar, a course that was made a requirement for all stu- dents beginning with 1981 gradu- ates, was offered to tenth through twelfth graders. Tom Jonozzo thought the class was ‘ necessary’ because everybody was graduat ing without really knowing the gram- matical points of English. Referring to another require ment—speech—sophomore Tim Warren remarked. I can speak openly with my friends, but I got nervous standing in front of the class. I didn’t know how they would react to my speech. Four English teachers were new at BHS in September of 1980. When Moody closed. Mrs. Spinos and Mr. DEMONSTRATION. Pretending to be a politician.

P.E. was scheduled for upperclassmen and lowerclassmen during different periods. Students were offered three courses during each nine week grading period instead of two to give them more variety. Aerobic dancing and all weather jogging were added to the curriculum dur- ing the 80-81 school year. “Aerobic dancing was fun,“ remarked Junior Chris Lunder. “As long as you par ticipated, it was good exercise. The class was both dancing and jazzercise. It was more fun than the other gym classes.” In the social studies department, three freshmen courses were add- ed to the high school: current world problems, world geography and in- troduction to social studies.

A teacher asked the high school students to stop throwing the Elementary Students Enjoy Christmas Play Bobek, who played the title role, remarked, I loved It. I had so much fun. The kids real- ly seemed to enjoy our play. Maggie Lovano, a caroller, ex plained, It gave the kids a dif- ferent aspect of Christmas— that the holiday shouldn't only mean getting gifts. I liked sing- ing the carols with the kids afterwards because it involved them and made them feel like a part of the play. One minor mishap at Colum- bus Elementary School dampened spirits momentarily. It seemed that as soon as we arrived, we were received with a cold attitude, remem- bered Ellen Bobek.

Stage Manager and costumer Keith Goad summa rlzed the experience, It went over well in the schools and It was well organized. It gave me a good feeling to know It was worth the time and effort.

I really don’t think it was too rough— after all, football is a rough sport, flag or not! Three touchdowns were tab- ulated during the 2! -hour con- test. Quarterback Monica Milewski ran in the ball for the Seniors’ first score Just before halftime, the juniors tied the score at 6-6 on a quick re verse Quarterback Jackie Curran tossed the ball to Karen Lazanich.

We feel that these students need more school, not less.” Under this prem- ise, Assistant Principal Francis McNellie developed the Opportu- nity option for students with 15 or more points for tardiness and or tru- ancy. After sending a request for finan- cial support, the Bedford City Schools received a grant from the Martha Holden Jennings Foundation. Since the second week of No- vember. about 12 kids a week have attended Opportunity. ac- cording to Mr. McNellie. As of Janu- ary. 1981, about 40 students have had the option. Only three chose suspension; the other 37 elected to go to their regular classes during the day and then at- tend Opportunity sessions in the in- school suspension room from 2:45 until 4:45. One teacher supervises the room each day. In addition to assisting the students with their homework, the faculty member enforces the Opportunity rules: Students will not be allowed to put their heads down and sleep: no food or bever age will be consumed during Op- portunity; no radios, cards, maga- zines or other recreational articles will be allowed in the room. I didn’t think suspension was ef fective, stated McNellie. Keeping the kids at home was more of a re- ward than punishment.” CHOICE. In conference with a parent.

Bed ford, the original city, is rich in his tory from its start as a township in 1797 until its present status as a municipality of 20,000 people. As each of the three satellites broke away from Bedford in 1951, they developed unique characteristics. Oak wood is basically rural, and largely undeveloped, with little in dustry. The most modern city, Bed ford Heights, sports high-rise apart ment complexes. Walton Hills is in a rural setting with light industry. Ads, Community History —171 LANDSCAPE.

These lines were: Township 6 in range 11 , which was 12 miles south- east of where the City of Cleveland was to be formed. Bedford's attrac tion was Tinker's Creek, named after Capt. Joseph Tinker, who was Chief of Supply Transportation for Moses Cleveland's surveyors. Bedford's first white settler was Eli- jah Nobles, who came to town in 1813 and made his home in a cab- in by Tinker’s Creek near the Inde- pendence line. Adams Starr, the next settlers, built the first mill on Tin- ker's Creek in 1815. The township was organized by Daniel Benedict in 1823. He named Bedford after his native village of Bedford, Con- necticut. According to the official records, however, there was no such town in Connecticut. On March 15, 1837, Bedford Township was formally organized. The lines were: Lots 45, 46, and 56, and that part of Lot 55 which lays northeast of Tinker’s Creek: also a strip thirty rods in width off the south end of Lot 36, west as far as the west line of Jus tus Remington's Land.

Town Hall Becomes Historical Building Bedford Town Hall was built by Frank Marble. Sr. in 1874. The Ohio State Legislature passed an enact ment granting the township the power to finance the hall. When the building was completed, it cost $13,500. The Town Hall constituted a perfect example of the French Mansard Style, popular In the 1870's. The Town Hall held the of- fices of the mayor, the clerk and the Justice of the Peace. The Hall also held a council chamber, court- room and village jail. The Town Hall was used for fraternal groups and all civic activities of the town. In 1892, electric lights were installed by the Bedford Light Power Com- pany. The building was finally va- cated in 1963 when the new city hall was built. After the old building had been abandoned for over a year, Richard Squire suggested it be turned over to the Bedford His- torical Society as the headquarters for its museum and library.

The town decided to build a monument dedicated to the men who fought in the war. In 1884 a committee was appointed to raise funds for the monument. A tax was levied for erection of a monu- ment and the board of trustees was placed in charge of the project. The monument was carved out of marble standing 22 feet 8 inches high. Carabelli Broggini of Cleve- land constructed the monument of the cost of $2,000. The Monument was dedicated to the soldiers on July 3, 1886 At the top of the Monument stands a Union soldier facing the north with its back turned disdainfully to the south.

The fire apparently started in the basement of the S.C. Hains block which was on the west side of Broadway south of Willis Street. The fire was out of control. The wind was brisk and the blaze spread to adjoining buildings in the downtown section. There was no adequate equipment and the men formed a “bucket Brigade '. But their efforts failed. The fire swept on, and buildings owned by J.B. L.C. Hains burned down in flames. Help arrived from the Newburgh Fire Department. The firemen brought an engine and hook and ladder apparatus. They were dispatched from the old Sawyer Street Station. Relief teams from Bedford came to meet them. But because of bad roads, the Newburghers had been forced to take a different route from that on which the Bedford teams were taking. They made the trip in just 41 minutes. There was not enough water available to save the buildings already ignited. But the fire fighters from Newburgh saved the rest of the town from burning. 184 Bedford Bums Compliments of Bedford Auto Wash 464 Broadway 1948-1978 FORBES RT. 8 BEDFORD, OHIO PHONE: 232-6360 Manning Maintenance Roofing, Sheet Metal Contractor Congrats to the Class of “81” 8021 Darrow Road Twinsburg, Ohio 44087 Phone. 425-4213 Manning Maintenance ISTKOlH I $3i OVM Ht.Ai rifUL SEW MEDITERRANEAN BANQUET ROOM • WEDDINGS • BANQUETS • KE EPTIONS PARTIES • SALES MEETINGS ■CHITWHOR BOW1 JNOGKfHTS congratulations! to the CLASS' of 1981 From the class of 82 Call 232-5444 for Leagues or Open Bowling Complete Line of Balls —Bags —Shoes RESTAURANT «LOUNGE • SNACK BAR SHOP 26383 BROADWAY OAKWOOD, OHIO 186— Roseland CLA a CONGRATf Bedford Glens Pavilion was built In 1884 on a site northeast of Willis Street.

Bedford Adopts City Manager Plan in “33” By the 1930’s. Bedford’s popula tlon reached 6,814. The city grew from a village to a town. This made it necessary to make a change in its form of government. After the charter commission adopted the City Manager Plan, the first city manager. Arthur Wedge, was hired. In 1932 1933 the charter fights began. The people who liked the charter were mostly Republicans; those opposing it were the Demo- crats. On August 17. 1933, the first proposed charter amendment was filed and was voted on at the 1933 election. This amendment proposed 22 changes in the charter. The principal change would be the elimination of the city manager provision. Chief opponents of the charter were Austin McCarthy. Carl Miller and Tom Day. On Jan. 2. 1932, the Charter form of goverr ment went into effect with Calvin Green as the first Titular Mayor and Walter S. Ross as first Law Director. In 1951, Bedford Heights. Oakwood and Walton Hills pulled away, dissatisfied with the govern- ment. 439-6733 City Government--- 191 From a portion of the Bedford Township, which bordered Rich- mond Rood on the eost, Northfield Rood on the west, Miles Road on the north, and Forbes Road on the south, the City of Bedford Heights was formed. February 20, 1951 marked the beginning of the history of Bedford Heights. On that date the voters in the area held a spe- cial election to express their desire to become a village. The vote was 244-220 in favor of becoming a vit lage. The village needed a mayor be- cause the people agreed to follow the same mayoral council form of government as Bedford. On May 18, 1951, the first mayor of Bedford Heights was elected. His name was Robert E. Willeford, and he was the youngest man ever to be elected mayor In the county at the time. On November 17, 1956, Mayor Willeford established the first town hall. It was constructed at 5661 Per kins Road, the very location of the city hall today. Another one of Mayor Willeford’s achievements for the city of Bed- ford Heights was converting the lit- tle village into a city. In 1960, there were approximately 5,350 residents in the village of Bedford Heights. After redlizing that only 5,000 resi- dents was one of the requirements Bedford Heights For- med on 2, 20, 1951 VyfeMc Senior Cl; CLASSY.

Bedford Heights celebrated both the inde- pendence of its nation and the offi- cial establishment of a newly formed ctty In 1966, Bedford Heights elected Mayor Lucille J Reed, the first wom- an elected mayor in Cuyahoga County. Among Mayor Reed's accomplish- ments for Bedford Heights was the reconstruction of city hall. She took part in the designing and interior decorating of the building. The moderrHooking building cost 1.9 mil- lion dollars. It is 47,600 square feet and took six years of planning and two years of construction before it was completed. In 1960, the population of Bedford Heights was predicted to reach 12, 000 in 1970 and then level off. The population of the city today is actu- ally close to 20,000. The increase in population of 8,000 people shows that the city of Bedford Heights still continues to grow beyond the 1960 expectations. 195 Bedford Heights continued General L. S. Conelly was the first settler of Walton Hills. In 1937 he purchased the Walton farm and laid out roads and properties of an acre or more. At this time the only homes were the Walton, Orchard, Scarpete, Kitson, Wife, Carey, and Brown farms. Also formed was a new allotment on Walton Road. John Allen bought the old school house ond remod- eled It Into a home. Along with Al- len, Otis Carmany and Del Mitchell becdme the first settlers to buy lots and build homes in the new forma tion of Walton Hills. In 1943 General Conelly gave a ten-acre parcel of land to the Wal- ton Hills Estate Club. On this land he made a Idke and this drea be came a park for the people living in the Estates. George T. Graves, Virgil Allen and others in the Estates pulled their efforts together and in- corporated the southwestern sec tion of the township into the Village of Walton Hills. With the Estates serving as the nucleous, the boundaries of the vil- lage were set. To the west was the Village of Valley View. Oakwood lay to the east, boundaries on the south were the Village of Northfleld and Sagamore Hills Township.

HEW IRD USED CARS THE BEDFORD VO MILE is' 1 ® inn: II11 w Oakwood Incorporates! 480 For, 198 Against The section that was left of Bed- ford Township after the incorporation of Walton Hills and Bedford Heights was incorporated as the Village of Oakwood in May of 1951 by a vote of the people. The community of Oakwood was started by the incor porating committee, which included Vincent Arnold, Walter Tuennerman, Jim Stewart, Herman Diederich, Ivor Grange, Eleanor Grange and Thelma Kerlin. Not happy with the township form of government, the committee felt that the needs of the rapidly growing population were not being fulfilled. 678 voters arrived at the polls and chose the name ‘‘Oakwood’' for their community. The votes ran 480 for the incorporation and 198 against. Vincent Arnold was elected the first mayor. The Village of Oakwood had no exisiir.� government funds ready at Ihe time of its incorporation. Ivor Grange opened the first Booster Club meeting on June 6, 1951. The Oakwood Booster Club assisted the new community at its birth. Club members started out by having white elephant sales, selling tax stamps and doing whatever they could do to help the community.

EXITING. Alter watching a movie about the Air Force. Dion Tlggett and Brian Abernathy leave the Air Force trailer. The movie was all right; they showed a lot ot air planes, commented Dion. The people who had industrial education classes viewed the movie. “It’s easier to get involved at BHS because there are more activities.” Karin Money. New Class Exhibits Athle- tic and Academic Promise Since they now were part of the high school, freshmen had the opportunity to take part in more clubs, such as Thearts, Pride Committee, Student Senate, and Friendship Club, even though they started none themselves. The ninth graders also had a wider choice of phys-ed classes than they were offered in junior high. In its first year at the high school, the freshmen football team finished the season with a 5-1-1 record. Academically, Bedford High School freshmen and sopho- mores scored higher than the na- tional average on the Scott Foresman Co. Achievement Se ries. 214— Closing YARDAGE.

Freshmen Accepted and Be- come Part of the School Regarding the crowded gym conditions, Athletic Director James Rose admitted, “I don't know of a single thing that can be done to alleviate the situ- ation. Renting out the gyms in Moody and Ellenwood is not possi- ble because they’re not heated. To comply with fire laws, we’d need a fireman on duty 24 hours a day. ” “It was confusing at first, ac- cording to freshman Karin Money, “but I’d rather be here in the high school than spending another year in Moody. With all the op- portunities Bedford High School of- fered the ninth graders, it was NOT JUST ANOTHER FOURTH CLASS OPERATION. 216— Closing
