Discovery of Life ' s True Meaning Begins in Youth Youth, a once in a lifetime chance to really live. A brief span of time contain- ing opportunities for all to explore the various facets of life. And much more im- portant is the opportunity to explore oneself, trying desperately to discover what the purpose of life is, and being free to decide. Free to follow, change, or even abandon the ideas, standards, and stereotypes that are offered so willingly as advice. Free to relish days so harried that self-reflection seems impossible and mo- ments of joy when surrounded by friends. Youthfulness Lives on in Memories And yet, most complain of days which drag into eternity. Everything seems to stand still. Who is to blame? Youth comes but once. Experience what its like to belong to friends, to feel the glow of making someone happy, to express feelings; whether through poetry or compositions or through participation in ruled competition. The aspects of youth are broad, not a path straight and narrow. Dissect a worm. go fishing, take art. learn to type, go to a show, visit the zoo, sing around a bon- fire, cheer at a ballgame, make a snow- man, walk barefoot in the rain, ride a bike . . . love yourself and others. Love Life. These are the years in which a person is formed. Ideas and people will change later, but the changes will be minor and each change alters only slightly the foun- dation of goals, morals and character that take shape during adolescence and young adulthood. Be proud of youth and wear it well. Do not ever regret trying to attain a goal, for these are the precious years that are longed for after a time. No one returns. No, no one. And one man occupies only a minute fraction of the time that has been and is vet to come. Upper Left: Homecoming senior candidates drift in a fantasy world on a nursery rhynin float.

Orientation to Graduation Day Blues With graduation day an old life ends and a new one begins Reflections are the only means of carrying us back and then only in spirit for a moment, to: The first excitement of cheering for a high school team, your team The tremendous pressure of a semester final, be it in biology, algebra, or some other course An expression of creation in the construc- tion of a class float The romantic mood of that first slow dance with someone special United laughter uttered as Miss Kitty Litter brought peace back to the West? That little bit of cheer which the voice of Bellmont never failed to summon up The hard efforts of many who entertained the rest the best they could in that once a year performance, the pops concert, and the satisfaction when it ended-a job well done The anxiety of competing on a freshman, reserve, intramural, or varsity team A last tear drifting down, silently saying good-bye-BHS Memories of days spent here shall fade but never die If You ' ve Got the Time We ' ve Got . . . Bellmont ' s 1974-75 Homecoming ac- tivities were highlighted with the crow- ning of King Phil Fennig and Queen Jan- ice Seitz at half time ceremonies, as the Braves defeated Columbia City. 28-22.

Displays Student Creativity Due to added courses, Bellmont had a record high enrollment in art courses. The communication art II class made T.V. commercials in which each student prepared, photographed and acted in a commercial which was later reviewed by the class. Equipment was obtained through the audio-visual department. The design II class worked on decora- ting a tree for the commons during the Christmas season while the general art classes made ornaments which were hung in the entrance hall at Bellmont. In Mrs. Pilkington ' s class students learned objective drawing from non-ob- jective design. Students drew a still-life in pencil then rearranged them and sketched their drawings in charcoal. Throughout the year a majority of the types of art work are exhibited in the display cases near the commons. Above: Sophomore Linda Davis gets a good start on her macrame project in weaving I class.

Students worked on all the ma- chines for one or more weeks at a time. Machines used on this plan included several types of calculating and duplica- ting machines, a transcribing machine, an IBM executive typewriter, and also the PBX telephone in the office. Students enrolled in typing II worked with an Office Job Simulation where they would be working for a distributor of of- fice equipment. Each student received a work packet which contained all the forms necessary for a secretary to com- plete in one week ' s time. April 21-25, recognition was given to all secretarial students with guest speakers from local businesses throughout the week.

One of their experiments included a Woman and Man simulation game. The class was divided according to sex. The women then strove to prove their equality or superiority, while the men attempted to prove that women are lower than they are. Not everyone agreed on what was said but everyone learned the power that stereotypes hold over people. The political arts and sciences class taught by Mr. Bittner and Mr. Metzger also held a simulation game, but in this case, the class was divided into a Senate and House of Representatives. Students were selected to act as governor and lieutenant governor. Class legislators com- posed and introduced bills to the class. Everyone received first-hand experience of the problems which confront the legis- latures. Upper far left: Cindy Lovellette, senior, reviews her notes before a test in her social institutions class.

The boys ' family living class, taught by Mrs. Phyllis Houk, planned a special hour for Head Start youngsters. The class baked cookies the day before and served them with milk. The children watched a filmstrip and played games with the class. At the end of each semester, the bach- elor living class entertained guests at meals they prepared themselves. For a study in child care, Mrs. Chron- ister ' s home economics II class brought in children from ages 5 months to 5 years. The class enjoyed observing the children as they played with games and toys. One of the projects of the advanced foods class included preparing an entire meal from a foreign country. Guests were invited to help enjoy the meal. Above: Ken West, junior, works on getting the wrinkles out of his newly made apron in bache- lor ' s home economics.

The fifteen battery- operated pocket calculators were pur- chased by the math department to lighten the work load of the advanced classes. Algebra I, instructed by Mrs. Hebble, tried something new this year. The stu- dents were assigned to design and make their own string art picture. They began with a board, nails, and odd pieces of string and created beautiful designs. When asked what the significance of such a project was, Mrs. Hebble com- mented that string art gave the student an unusual challenge— to mathematically figure out his own pattern, to see the correlation of a one-to-one correspon- dence to math and to provide a unique experience not generally found in the field of math.

The Graphics classes printed programs for a ll school activities while the Draft- ing classes drew up prints for vacation homes. In the field of electronics, computer components and intercoms were built, while radios and TV sets were also re- paired. The Woods II classes built barns for sale. Auto Mechanics I classes worked on small engines while the second year class- es repaired automobiles. Upper right: Industrial Arts instructor. Mi.

Offers Variety of Courses The animal production class made it ' s annual trip to Lengerich Meats, Inc. First hand observation by the students helped each one realize the work and skills necessary to produce quality meat. Also, they went to the home of Ed Stop- penhagen to see cage-layer operation. Stu- dents received information pertaining to care, feeding and management of the poultry operation. Several guest speakers from Indiana and Purdue Universities came throughout the year to talk to the students of the sci- ence classes. Mr. Sprunger ' s Biology I class demon- strated the influence of male hormones in promoting the development of secondary sex characteristics in a project involving chickens. Another class spent time col- lecting fish from the Bellmont Pond and classifying them according to species. It was the first year for independent study classes in biology and chemistry.

Students Take Standard Courses — ' t t 1 t Mmm mm — w ■ I — — ■-«—«— I -. mm — — — —I— In its third year at the high school level, the Pre-Vocational Experiences class can be considered as being very success- ful. Classes this year consisted of vocation- al english, general science and other high school level courses. Occupations Preview, a special class taken by all P. V. E. students this year, was designed to acquaint each student with the types of jobs that are available in the community. Community employers spoke to the class concerning occupa- tional offerings, requirements for em- ployment and expectations from em- ployers. The Individualized Occupational Train- ing Association Club was concerned with promoting responsible citizenship, and academic achievement among its mem- bers. One activity of the I. 0. T. A. club was a beautification project where the students collected and dispersed of trash from the school grounds. The students also planned a Thanksgiving dinner for their parents in appreciation of guidance given throughout the years.

Diane Wins Study Trip to Italy The high point this year in the Foreign Language Department was a seven week study trip to Italy and Sicily won by Diane Schweier, an independent study student in Latin. However, there was also a very low point. Miss Vera, an instructor of both French and Latin, decided to re- tire. She was given a necklace by Latin I and II. The French classes made flowers that were worn on their costumes to the an- nual French Club party. Students studying German played Ger- man Scrabble and Bingo to broaden their vocabulary skills. After the weather be- came warmer, they challenged the Span- ish students to a game of soccer, German football. Spanish students created lovely pin- atas for their Christmas decorations. They climaxed their year of study by taking an exciting, informative trip to Mexico. 45 Top: Miss Wekler and the Brave Generation re- hearse a selection.

The Brave Generation, comprised of twenty Bellmont junior and senior students, performed approximately twenty times in the 1974-75 school year. They appeared on television twice: once the Wayne Rothkeb Show and also on the 4-H in Action program. First place medals were awarded to the BG ' s at both District and State Competi- tion. The girls ensemble also placed first. The Bellmont Marching Band captured top honors at the Three Rivers Festival parade and retained their title, The Pride of Adams County, by placing first in the Berne Halloween parade.

Love, Film, Sports, All Available Bellmont students have been required to take three years of English. In the Language Arts Department, a large var- iety of courses was offered to the stu- dents to fulfill the necessary three year English curriculum. These courses were denoted by various phase numbers such as 1-2, 3-4, and 5; the higher the number, the more advanced the course. The student was to select the course into which he felt he fit. A wide selection ranging from sports special, comic spirit, exploring the film, and the meaning of love to vocabulary and spelling and advanced composition was available. Another field to explore in Language Arts was journalism. Below: Tom Hoopingarner works on the paste- up of the sports page to meet a newspaper dead- line.

The department of physical education had the assistance of two student teachers this year. Mr. Ron Kuhnle assisted Mr. Miller in the boys P.E. classes and Miss Sally Bunch taught the girls P.E. classes under the direction of Mrs. Hebble. The boys P.E. class participated in the fields of football, dodgeball, tennis, swim- ming, and wrestling. Girls P.E. classes enjoyed recreation in track and field events, Softball, volleyball, swimming, tennis, badminton, bike riding with a picnic, hockey, and dancing. 51 52 Dedication, Hard Work, Key to 8-2 Season With a combination of talent, ex- perience, and a desire to succeed, the Braves rolled to a best ever season of 8-2. Although the NE1C crown eluded them, the Braves scored more points than any other team in the school ' s history while giving up the fewest number of points. Commenting on the success of the season Coach Harants stated. They were one of the best teams I ' ve ever coached, and certainly one of the most versatile. The kids wanted to win, were easy to coach, and even more exciting to watch. First year quarterback Steve Hormann set a school record by throwing 16 touchdown strikes, 9 of them to Mike Hoopingarner, also a school record. Three year letterman Tim Brazill entered the Bellmont record books by becoming the all-time leading scorer in Bellmont history with 23 touchdowns and 2 extra points. Individual NEIC honors were given to 3 first team members, while another 3 were honored on the second team.

Although the freshman squad struggled to a 1-5 record. Coach Pilking- ton felt that they showed a lot of poten- tial and will provide some good players for future Bellmont squads. The reserves proved more successful in their 4-3 season including two shutouts over Norwell and South Adams. Leading ground gainers for the junior Braves were Jeff Rambo, Bill Voirol, and Mike Mc- Conaha, while the leading receiver of Doug Hormann ' s passes was Mike Col- clasure with 18 receptions for 406 yards and 6 touchdowns.

Young Team Finishes Strong Despite a slow beginning, Bellmont ' s cross country team finished strong with six victories in their last nine meets, de- feating a tough Adams Central squad, 30- 31 , to capture the County Title. Leading the Braves this year was Jim Engle with 143 varsity points, followed closely by Paul Shaffer with 128. Eight runners posted times under 14 minutes this season, setting a new Bellmont record. Looking forward to next year, first year coach Lou Hatke stated, We should get off to a better start next season, and thus improve on this year ' s record. Coach Hatke has reason to be optimistic for he will have six returning lettermen. BHS.

The Braves were led by undefeat- ed doubles team, Scott Odle and Chris Marbach, and Tom Hoopingarner, who lost only once in singles competition, and completed the season with a com- bined 18-2 record for singles and doubles competition. A new system for both the conference and sectional tourneys was installed this year placing more emphasis on team play. The new system hurt the Braves this year, as coach Mark Young felt Odle and Marbach may have advanced to state competition. Although the new system hurt the Braves this year, Coach Young feels it is a good system, because a team must have more than one or two good players to win. Next season looks promising as the Braves will have four returning lettermen. •- Above: Playing in the sectional with a broken left arm, Kevin Buckingham smashes a serve.

Miller Adds Sophomore to Varsity In Coach Miller ' s second year at Bell- mont, the Braves ended with a 10-1 1 sea- son. Exhibiting some inconsistency, they did, however, post wins over good teams such as, Bluffton, the NEIC champs, and Norwell, winners of the 1974 South Adams sectional. In scoring, the Braves were paced by junior Rick Schauss with 397 points and Luke Leitz and Mike Hoopingarner with 297 and 260 points respectively. Schauss was also the leading rebounder with 203 while Mike Hoopingarner set school rec- ords in four assist catagories with most assists in one game, 11, a season, 109, a career, 215, and an assist average for one season of 5.1.

Any time you win 15 of 20 games, you had a pretty good season, stated John Cate on his reserve ball club. Even our losses were all close, as the combined point spread was 15 points, for an average of 3 points deficit in each of our losses, continued coach Cate. Leading scorer and rebounder for the junior Braves was Herb Schlemmer with 214 points and 155 rebounds. As a team, the Braves shot a good 46% from the field and an equally good 70% from the charity stripe. The freshmen, however, were not so fortunate as they managed just four wins in eighteen games. Coach Gary Busse, however, felt that despite the poor record the frosh Braves showed potential, with occasional flashes of brilliance. Freshman basketball- Row 1: R. Hammond, J. Oritez, S.

Junior co-captain Ted Baker established new marks in the 2Q0 and 500 yard freestyle. Senior Chris DesJean eclipsed his own record in the one meter dive with a mark of 261.80. In the tough Kokomo Sectional, Coach Mark Young ' s youthful team finished ninth. Excellent performances were turned in by Tom Shoup with a sixth place finish in the 100 yard breaststroke, and by Chris and . Kate DesJean, who finished fifth and seventh respectively in the one meter dive. Kate, along with senior co-captain Gail Nielson were the only girls competing in the Sectional.

Wayne North Side. Six Wrestlers advanced to the finals, with Bruce Thieme, Vic Beer, and Greg Mankey coming out victorious. Thieme went on to capture fourth place in the state meet. In addition to the Regional crown, the matmen under Coach Al Kalver fash- ioned a perfect 10-0 slate in dual com- petition. The Braves also captured their fourth consecutive NEIC and Sectional crowns. Coach Kalver felt that depth was his team ' s overall strength this season. He stated, We were strong in every weight class this year. This was one of the best if not the best Bellmont wrestling team to ever take the mat.

Several fresh- men and sophomore members of the squad competed in Relays held at Sala- monie, where the team earned seventh place. Coach Lou Hatke stated that many members of the reserve team are just out of junior high and are not used to high school competition. He feels that the ex- perience and taste of competition that they get from the reserve team will help them when they move up to varsity. Reserve Track Team-Row 1: R. Hess, T. Green, E. Spangler, J.

The members of this team aimed successfully at the bulls-eye; ending their season with a 9-0 record. Mr. Charles Abel ' s instruction of basic gun safety and rifle handling also paid off in a second place finish in state com- petition for Bellmont ' s three-position team. The members of this team are: Fred Kunkel, Greg Kitson, Mark Ruble, Nancy Kunkel, and Charlie Brune. Approximately fifteen years old, the BHS rifle club is believed to be the sec- ond-oldest school rifle club in Indiana. Members compete each year in the Tri- County Marksmanship Shoot-Off, out of which Bellmont ' s outstanding individual places won the red team a second place conference finish and the blue team a third. 3 Records Broken; Miller to Regional Record breaking performances by Tim Brazill in the 440 with a time of 52.3, Mike McConaha, who ran a 2:03.4 in the 880, and by Mark Fruchte, who eclipsed the old low hurdle mark with a time of 21.2, highlighted the track team ' s season. Explaining the season, Coach Lou Hat- ke stated, We ran against some tough schools, to give the boys a taste of com- petition. By running against good compe- tition we hope to improve everyone ' s in- dividual times. In addition to juniors McConaha and Fruchte, sophomores Engle and Miller head the list of returnees. Shotputter Steve Miller broke the fifty foot barrier on several occasions late in the Season. His second place finish at Sectional earned him the right to advance to the Regional.

Led by the hitting of Gene Harkless, with a 413, the reserve Braves sported six players with .300 or better batting aver- ages, and hit .277 as a team. Commenting on his team, Coach Bo- lander stated, I was real proud of how they came back, they played well to- gether and should provide a good nucleus for Bellmont teams to come. Strong points for the reserve, added Coach Bolander, were defense, and get- ting the big hit at the right time. 81 Bellmont had more athletes, 17, named to first team conference squads than any other year in Bellmont history.

Seniors were honored with a party at the end of the year by other club mem- bers. Officers of this years science club were: Greg Wemhoff— Pres., Jim Ehinger -V.

Workshop Allows Idea Expression Throughout the years at Bellmont the Art Club has been established, but this year it went under a new constitution. To try and strengthen it under the new con- stitution, members were to be of a sopho- more level and higher with a B+ average in the field of art. Throughout the year the club spon- sored many activities such as: a slide pro- gram on the history of the arts, develop- ing and printing film, a Christmas party, and a field trip to L. S. Ayres in down- town Fort Wayne to look at many of the high school art exhibits. The end of the year brought the election of the new of- ficers. The officers of the 1974-75 school year were: Pres.; Myra Miller, V. Pres.; Lucy Davis, and Sec. Treas.; Donna Tusynski. Above: Mis.

In the summer before his junior year he was stricken with can- cer. He continued in school functions while participating in intra-mural basket- ball and serving as school mascot in sporting events. Late last fall Rodney Fifer lost his hard fought battle with cancer. We will always think of him as the friendly and warm human being that he was. And the memories that we have of Rod will always be cherished. n ! Stairway to Heaven, Theme for ' 75 Prom Alberding, Dennis Artea, Felipe Baker.

A special thank you must go to Miss Carolyn Jackson and Mr. Fred Auten- rieth, who instructed at the Tri-State journalism workshop. We would also like to thank the local merchants for their greatly appreciated support. We are ever grateful to Mr. Dick Ken- nard, our yearbook representative, for his assistance in completing the small but very important details of the book. And without Mrs. Young, we never could have finished. Good luck and thank you again. | I I ' dSl .il Yearbook staff-Row 1: L. Meyer, assistant album editor; M. Hartmann, academics editor. Row 2: P.
