N3wssyipym C1NV s .SINIIAiaV NEW FACES VISIT BHS BHS welcomed many new faces during the year. Through the efforts of the Bement Drug Awareness Program, Darrell Porter and David Toma shared their personal experience with drugs. Students from area high schools attended the assembly. Darrell Porter, a former catcher for the Kansas City Royals, is now a catcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. ? David Toma, a former policeman, is a writer and a speaker on drug abuse. The television shows Barretta and Toma are based on his life as a policeman. He is currently working on a movie based on his life history. Laura Holonen, a student from Finland, was a guest of the Art Wilkinson family during her senior year. While staying at Bement, Laura made many new friends. She played Miss Garvey in the senior play, Onions in the Stew. New windows gave Bement High School a new look. Tinted windows were installed in the middle of the year. Earlier in the year, the school was also tuckpointed. As you can see in the pictures, these changes improved the overall look of BHS. 3 FACES OF The seniors wore a face of accomplishment as they tried on their caps and gowns. These seniors were eagerly waiting to be the 101st class to graduate from BHS. This year marked the 100th anniversary of the first class to graduate from Bement High School. For the past few years, French Club has been collecting gifts to give to needy families in Piatt County. As always, the project was a huge success. French Club and those people who donated gifts helped bring joy and happiness to these families during the Christmas season. The Bement Bulldogs Marching Band had a successful year. The band participated in many competitive parades. They received trophies, money, and ribbons for their performances. The band's new uniforms added to their achievements. Scholastic Bowl became a brainstorm for some students. Scholastic Bowl participated in everything from dual meets to 4 ACCOMPLISHMENT county meets. These students dedicated their trivia knowledge to gain points for their team. Mr. Hays sponsored the team; Chris Price was varsity captain. Accounting students got a sneak peak at the prom pictures while Mr. Taylor rated them. For the first time, prom was held out of town. Everyone seemed to enjoy the meal before the dance. Jim Quick spent some of his spare time working on the Apple II. This computer was bought by the school. Plans are to use the Apple II for organizing the student's schedules and the payroll. 5 SMILING FACES The high school art students visited the Museum of Science and Art in Chicago. They stopped for lunch at D.B. Kaplan's in the Water Towers Place. Cindy Guffey posed by an unusual piece of artwork at the Museum of Science and Art. The students raced to the lunchroom in fear that there might not be enough for them. The fighting and pushing was worth it because tacos were being served—one of the kid's favorites. The boys indulged their food in a hurry so they could get in line for seconds. 6 Students and teachers found time to have fun and act crazy between their studies and activities. The cheerleaders added a little fun to the pep meeting by having a pie throwing contest. Mr. Wingle and Mr. Bishop won the students' votes for getting hit with a pie. Afterwards, they thought they would go a step further and bomb each other! The seniors were getting senioritis with only a few days of school left. They decided to add some fun to one of their last noon hours at Bement High School. After much struggle, this was the highest their pyramid got. Many people walked off with aching backs, but the laughter seemed to ease the pain. After more seniors came outside and wanted to get in the picture, they decided to try something a little easier and less painful. These proud seniors let everyone know that they were No. 1! 7 FACULTY What would we do without teachers? Teachers are a vital part of the students education. With their patience and endurance they prepare students for the unknown future ahead. French. 10 11 ADMINISTRATION FAMILIAR FACES The administration played an important role in the day-to-day operations of the school system. They performed many policy-making tasks.

Certain activities could only wait until the final hours; the Music Boosters prepared food and decorations and made last minute adjustments. Finally the performance began with jitters and stage fright. While enjoying the occasion, throughout the evening, people ate, drank, and of course, were merry. Another Madrigal dinner became history. The aftermath of the evening's activities began to surface a week later. As a result, several students were reprimanded for their behavior during the performance.

BUMPERS BOUNCE BACK The Bement girls' varsity volleyball team finished the season with nine wins and twelve losses. The Bumpers seemed to have started off on the wrong foot as they lost their first three games against Fisher, Deland-Weldon, and Monticello. The girls happily defeated Tuscola but again tasted defeat when they opposed Macon. Bement stepped over Tuscola once more before they were put away by Areola, Oakland, and Arthur. The Bumpers hit a winning streak as they conquered Newman, Atwood, Homer, Shiloh, and Villa Grove. Once again, the team felt the agony of defeat as Cerro Gordo and Sullivan stomped Bement. The team sailed over Lovington before they destroyed Arthur in the LOVC Tournament. The girls' dream of being the conference champs was shattered when Cerro Gordo again showed who was boss. The Bumpers ended the season as they began it when they lost their last two games to Villa Grove and Cerro Gordo. The three captains for the volleyball team were seniors Pam McNew, Debbie Walsh, and Nancy Fendley. The team was coached by two new faces this year. Marianne Larimer was head coach and Tim Bishop was the assistant coach. At the girls' volleyball banquet, Coach Larimer announced that Pam McNew was selected to the LOVC First Team All-Conference and was this year's best offensive player and server for Bement. Debbie Walsh was chosen for the LOVC Second Team All-Conference, and Nancy Fendley received Honorable Mention. Kim Auth was mentioned by Coach Larimer as being Bement's best defensive player. The junior-varsity team was coached by Mr. Tim Bishop. The girls ended the season with seven wins and nine losses to their record. Players on the JV team were Darla Henson, Debbie Roberts, Tammy Harper, Shelley Grindley, Sandy Roderick, Polly Wright, Leisa Fritz, Laura Bates, Angie Gallagher, Lori Foran, Sue Fristoe, Janet Gooch, Angie Rex-road, and Pam Zindars.

INJURIES DEPRIVE JV’S The Bulldogs had a good season, but injuries and inexperience hurt the teams overall record. Against Oakland 3 regular starters were sidelined with injuries, and many of the other games were nearly as bad. Despite these injuries, the Bulldogs did finish the season with a respectable 3-4 record, defeating Homer, Arthur, and Cerro Gordo. The team and its coaches, Jim Hays, Garry Plummer, and Ken Burke were proud of their efforts. JUNIOR VARSITY. John McCullough, Tim Somers, Tim Morton, Eric McNew Mark Mayer, Lynn Larimore.

At times we were discouraged with the yearbook, but we are pleased with the way it turned out and feel it was very worthwhile. We hope Barb Laley and Cindy Guffey receive the support they need to have a good yearbook. Merle Taylor deserves recognition for his help and advice. Thanks to Gene Schnierle, Chris Price, and Greg Barnhard for taking photographs for us. A special thanks to Sandy Roderick, Deb Walsh, and Theresa Ganley for extending their responsibilities as annual staff members. We hope these “Faces will help preserve the memories of high school for the class of '81. When you open your yearbook ten years from now, “Every Face WILL STILL Tell A Story. Karla and Nancy 9 116 ■wv
