Portrait of Pride 1984 Volume 2 Bement High School 201 South Champaign Bement, Illinois 61813 217-678-8230 Title Page 1 ORE_____________ Than Meets the Eye They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Have you ever thought of the words behind the pictures. They may represent feelings, memories of both pleasant and unpleasant times, noises, tastes, and various other senses. How about the times you screamed so hard at the game and the next morning you awoke with a throat that felt as if you had swallowed a handful of needles. Remember all the dances, the tests, the homework, the sound of rustling leaves, the smells of autumn, the tears shed, the laughter spent between friends, the good feelings shared between the best of friends. We all know the feelings. What remains are the memories of the life we knew. We share the pictures with you with the though foremost in our mind — there is More Than Meets the Eye.

Opening 3 A Week For Bustin’ Loose Spirit Week is a week for bustin’ loose and going a little crazy, and that’s exactly what the students at BHS did. On Monday everybody participated in Clash Day, Tuesday was Button Day, and there sure were a lot of buttons. Wednesday was Hat and Shade Day. Thursday was Accessory Day, and of course Friday was Purple and White Day. Also during the week there were Bubble Blowing Contests, 3-legged races, and Football Rolling Contests, featuring the football players. The students at BHS most liked Button Day the best, everywhere you looked there were buttons. Lora Manalisay liked Hat and Shades Day the best, “Be- . i huW' i no M w I1W ML.,, Ml H • $ IHuM ,J IHI WlMti I Mil W ‘ liiuiw no [ WIUICHTt cause of all the different hats there were.” Beth Stengel liked Clash Day, “Because she got to be a little more wilder than usual.” Tracy Cozad liked Accessory Day the Best because she liked being out of the ordinary at times. Colleen O’Connor also liked Clash Day because she thought it was pretty wild. Juniors Tina Hislope, Amy Cantrell, Kelly Smith, Sophomores Beth Stengel and Rita Cantrell show that FHA has the Bulldog spirit during the parade.

The upperclassmen at BHS have always thought of the Sophomore class as being a little too wild and crazy, but this time it paid off. Theresa Flavin says, “I’m really glad that the Sophomores won Spirit Week because it shows all the spirit we have.” Susan Whiteside says, “I think it’s great cause it shows the other classes that we aren’t just Sophomores.” Denise Quick becomes a mouseketeer during Hat Day.

Spirit Week 5 Gone With The Wind To this years Seniors, in this years Homecoming Court, it was perhaps the best Homecoming they’ve attended and also the last. “Gone With the Wind” was not the only theme for Homecoming but also the theme to their past school years. As everyone knows, it is said that your high schools years go fast and being in the court would most likely make your Senior year a memorable one. To Queen Stephanie Burgener and King David Guffey and the rest of the 1983 Homecoming court, we wish you luck, and hope that you have many more nights just as memorable as this one.

Homecoming 7 PICTURE time and more Pictures are all part of the memories. Looking back do you remember the day you got your class picture taken? Your day started extra early. You knew exactly what you would wear, because you had been planning this for weeks in advance. Everyone at school looked the best they had looked all year. You were all set, but then it was your turn to sit in “the chair”. You wanted your picture to turn out perfect, but you thought how could it. The lights were so bright you practically had to squint your eyes to see anything. And this strange man you had never seen before was telling you to smile, but it felt more like an awkward grin. Then it was all over. All that time it had taken you to plan for your picture, and it was over within a matter of five seconds. As you know, class pictures are not the only pictures taken within the year. There are those candid shots which take no time at all to get ready for. They’re the pictures which make a yearbook fun to look at. Throughout this division, you’ll see class pictures as well as those well-known candid shots which capture the emotions of those “off guard” moments. Rita Cantrell walks in the Homecom ing parade.

Frances said she enjoyed working in the cafeteria, she will miss it very much. Mirage: Head Start To An Experience “Mirage is great!” said Senior Lori Foran. “It’s really a lot of fun and it’s a great opportunity to learn new equipment work and meet people who are interested in the same things you are. “What is Mirage? Mirage is a color guard made up of young men and women between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one. Sponsorship of Mirage is through the Exploring division of the Boy Scouts of America. Mirage is chartered by American Legion Post 287 in Rantoul, Illinois. “I think it is a good experience because it is a good way of meeting new people and having a lot of fun doing it,” said Nancy Fritz. During the Winter months, Mirage competes with other color guards from the Central U.S. as a member of the Midwest Color Guard Circuit. They have also been known to form exhibitions at basketball games, shopping malls and even youth centers. Senior Lori Foran, Junior Michele Montgomery and Freshman Nancy Fritz became member of the Mirage color guard in late October. They all agreed that it was very time consuming but, they wouldn’t have wanted to miss a minute of it. It’s really a neat opportunity to meet people from a lot of different schools.” said Junior Michele Montgomery. Stardom Have you ever wondered what it would be like to sing with a band? For Sophomores Heidi Radmaker and Leigha Crowl it’s a reality. They sing with the Country Jacks, a band which plays mostly Country and Pop music. They don’t sing with them all of the time, just mostly at weddings. They started singing with them as Solo and back up singers in the summer of ’83. Heidi’s dad is one of the lead members. “When I graduate I plan to get my own band together,” said Leigha Heidi and Leigha said that they were scared when they first started, but now they love it. “It’s fun for a past time now, but when I graduate from High School I plan to go on to college.” said Heidi. 10 Who’s That? the first small school that I have attended. I have only year to go and I look forward to it.” — Howard Chapman Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be the “new kid” in school? We asked a few what it’s like and here is what they had to say. “It’s frightening at first, trying to make new friends and not knowing how people are going to except you, but I like it here. It’s different than other schools I’ve been to. I just hope I’m here to graduate in the Class of ’87 at BHS. — Laurie Lewis “At first I was quite scared when I came back to the school. You see I left Bement Grade School in fifth grade. As people say, I became a Monticelloian, but that’s not true. Monticello didn’t have spirit like Bement.” — Beth Stengel “I think that the school is a good one. The people are a lot nicer here than they were where I came from.

Most, if not all of the rest of the world would be destroyed too. I don’t think it will happen because why would anyone want to destroy themselves?” — Mary Kirwan We asked a few of the Senior students what they thought about war and here are their responses. “I think that it is possible but I doubt that it will happen because the U.S.S.R. wants to take over our country and if they started war with us, both countries would be destroyed. — Karla Satterfeal Fact There are 40,000 nuclear war heads and missiles in the United States and Soviet Union.

Participating in High School sports, dances, clubs, and many other activities made the Freshmen feel they belong. This year the Football Team won the L.O.V.C. conference title for the second year in a row and the Freshmen were to witness it either by playing or cheering them on. Placing third in the Homecoming parade was also a big event. Although there are many changes in store for the Freshmen, they have proved they’ll have no problem fitting in.

A big achievement for the Sophomores was receiving first in Spirit Week. This year’s class officers are Jody Lewis President, John Thomas vice-president, Jeff Ard secretary. Lisa Martin felt that this was definitely a year to remember. While Tammy Taylor felt that getting her license was the highlight of this year. The Sophomores proved that it isn’t at all bad to dare to be different and have a good time doing so. Wherever the Sophomores went you could hear giggling and some yelling, but they made it a pact to leave everyone “Smiling.” Sophomores Beth Cook, Tracy Cozad, Theresa Flavin, Tammy Taylor, are really enthused at their Annual Staff meeting. 14 Picture Time Jody Lewis — President Lora Manalisay Lisa Martin Donna Mitchell Kenny Nelson Tracy McCluskey Shelly Poague Denise Quick Heidi Radmaker Terry Rex road Tracy Roberts Patrick Schweighart Beth Stengel Tammy Taylor John Thomas Ted Tieman Ardi Tracy Susan Whiteside Mark Woolley Not Pictured — Wayne Bennett Jim Lane Dennis Shonkwiler Sophomores 15 Connie Ard — Secretary Sherri Ashby •Jamie Ater Ted Auth Lori Burgener Angela Carney Howard Chapman Darlene Cody Susan Crupper Corine Fischer Michelle Gifford — Vice-President Tom Hensley— President Tina Hislope Krista Kopp Jim Lane James McHale Brenda Moefield Linda Moefield Michelle Montgomery Colleen O’Connor Malora Ohnesorge Kendra Phipps Kraig Rogers Kelly Satterfeal David Schwartz Andi Shonkwiler Karrie Slagle Kelly Smith Holly Sparkman Rick Tomson Patricia Wierman Petrina Wierman Not Pictured — Amy Cantrell Jakie Hutson 16 Picture Time Andi Shonkwiler and Colleen O’Connor Krista Kopp makes sure she has the right study for an upcoming test. slips. Juniors Take Pride At the beginning of the year, Juniors looked forward to getting their class rings, taking part in varsity sports, and thinking of various ways to make money for prom. Along with magazine sales to raise money, the Juniors had concession stands during football season. At the end of the year, Juniors took the ACT and began making plans for college. The all important college plans are made early in order that changes can be made. This Class is not only hard working, but they work together and take pride in what they do. Kraig Rogers and Sue Fristoe are attentive listeners. Tom Hensley’s French class inspires him to show his artistic ability.

Everyone was excited, and they planned new ideas in their heads on what to do with their lives when they finally got done with high school. Many wished that the twelve years wouldn’t have gone by so fast, while for others they were glad it was finally over. Many of the seniors planned on going to college, while others went job-hunting. But no matter what each senior did, they will always remember the twelve years they spent at Bement Grade and High School.

Seniors 23 Every year the school tries to find new and better ways to improve the school system in one way or another. This year the school board had an election just like they have every other year. Some new members were elected and some previous members were re-elected. Those that are now on the board are: President — John Strack, Vice President — Mike Morgan, Secretary — Mick Galli-van. Others that are on the board are: Marilyn Ayers, Jack McHale, Eugene Corum, and Larry Rogers. The members that are elected are elected on a four year basis. While they are on the board they do the hiring and firing, spend the districts money and make major decisions. Where would we be without them? The administration, custodians, and cooks are also needed in the school, because without the cooks half of the students at BHS would be malnutritioned. Without the custodians the school would be a very dirty mess! Without the administration the school would be in a big mess, there would be no discipline, there would be no classes because the teachers would be in the office answering the phone. The same is true about teachers, without them there would be no such thing as education. Some students think that teachers have it easy. While they are sitting on their chairs, we, the students are studying our brains out, trying to pass the daily quizzes, semester exams, and researching for reports. This isn’t the whole truth! Sure they get a lot of time off where they don’t have anything to do. But, they also have to do other things, such as grade tests, and plan assignments. So you see, where would we be, without all of these people.

If you were a dedicated athlete this is how it was for you: after a seven hour school day you still had enough strength to sweat it out at a grueling two hour practice. Long hard practices they were, but this is what made Be-ment sports what they were. Even though the majority of the sports (except varsity football) didn't have the best year ever, they all showed a tremendous amount of skill and fortitude. The one team that did do exceptionally well this year was the varsity football team. They shared the LOVC title with Villa Grove. Of course there were some individuals who excelled, but there were also those who just went out for the sport to “be on the team.” “Everybody didn’t get to play all the time, but even the “benchwarmers” never really warmed the benches because they were busy cheering their team on along with the cheerleaders and the fans in the stands. Even though to some non-athletes it seemed like the work of getting into shape seemed wasted, an athlete would know better, because he knew there was MORE to a sport THAN MEETS THE EYE. The varsity football team walks off of the field after another win.

Coach Jerry Lane said “It was a thrill and an honor to coach these young men for the pure fact that there has been rarely a team more dedicated, more self-disciplined, and more proud of their achievements than the 1983 Bulldogs. They definitely learned how to be successful. “Mr. Lane stated his main reason for naming this team his most exciting team of his career because the team was picked to win only 2 or 3 games this year and finished in the L.O.V.C. Also 4 straight comeback victories in the 4th quarter contributed to the excitement plus having 9 starters mentioned as receiving L.O.V.C. all-conference honors. The 6 seniors that led the varsity team with class and pride to the championship were Co-Captains: Brian Rumple, Steve Walsh, John Clark, David Guffey, Kyle Rogers, and Tony Bales. “We had a great time this year, and I’ll miss all the fun, “Kyle Rogers stated. With an 8-2 record this year the students were very proud of the Bulldogs. When everyone was about to call it quits, the Bulldogs never gave up. Throughout the season, they had many great comebacks.

That is the way that the Bement Junior Varsity Football team does things. This year the J.V. team had an 0-7 win-loss record. The Junior Varsity Basketball team had a 9-9 winning-losing season. Both teams find it is necessary to work hard and to keep thinking about how soon that they’ll be on the Varsity team. The Junior Varsity team is a time for the student-players to become more coordinated, learn the proper way of doing things, and to become serious about being on the team. When you are on the Varsity team you have to put forth 100 7 of your best effort. Because the win-loss record counts then and not as much when you are on the J.V. team. 32 Playing Time John Thomas shoots and makes it at the Cerro Gordo game. ‘Bement 44 Deland 39 ‘Bement 37 Mowequa 36 'Bement 42 Shiloh 38 Bement 40 Farmer City 60 Bement 40 Tuscola 53 Bement 48 Cerro Gordo 47 Bement 35 Villa Grove 55 Bement 53 Atwood 29 Bement 44 Sullivan 43 Bement 40 Areola 53 Bement 40 Tuscola 60 Bement 64 Arthur 36 Bement 36 Villa Grove 60 Bement 61 Cerro Gordo 38 Bement 42 Sullivan 40 Bement 29 Atwood 32 Bement 52 Arthur 40 Bement 55 Areola 62 JV Football Basketball 33 | Ted Auth passes the ball at a game.

The team this year consisted of 5 Seniors and 4 Juniors. The Bulldogs had only 3 returning lettermen, Seniors John Clark, Steve Walsh, and Junior Kraig Rogers. Coach John Wingle stated, “The downfall of most games was not having the ability to shoot freethrows. 7 of 11 games lost were due to poor shooting at the line.” He also stated the Bulldogs out-scored most of their opponents from the field this year. Coach Wingle’s most memorable moments were: the several close games which were decided in the last minute and a half, the LOVC win against Arthur, and the conference win over Sullivan.

Varsity Basketball 35 Players “Bump” Their Way Through Another Season Volleyball is a well-known sport that has been around Bement High School for quite a while. The interest in volleyball has increased over the last few years. “I really like volleyball because you get to use all of your muscles unlike some sports. Some people think that volleyball isn’t all that hard when really it is, if it is done right.” said Susan Whiteside, a B.H.S. volleyball player. This year a new coach came to B.H.S., Miss Lisa Lane. This is her first year at being a coach and she found out that being a coach is a lot different from being a player. “The volleyball season was quite a challenge for me. I received encouragement in watching the players improve.” said Coach Lane. The Varsity had a 9-13 record this year. “Our win-loss record in no way reflects the amount of hard work and practice the girls put forth.” This year the Varsity team had four returning Senior girls. The awards that were given out this year went to Laurie Bates, outstanding hitter; Angi Rexroad, outstanding defensive player and outstanding setter. Andi Shonk-willer received three awards for her performance as outstanding passer and server. Her third award was for being the best all-round player.

The girl’s varsity basketball team didn’t do extremely well this year. At the end of this season they posted a record of 0-19. The lack of success was due to-the inexperience of the players. There were only two seniors on the team, Laurie Bates and Angie Gallagher. The rest of the team consisted of three juniors and four sophomores. Most of the players thought if they would have more time to practice and had more playing time experience they would have done better than losing every game. Varsity Basketball 41 On Your Mark Get Set Go! The Bement track team had a very good year, with Theresa Flavin going to state and placing eighth in the 880.

Another baseball season has come and gone, and with it was another victory. This year, Coach Jerry Lane led the team on to steal the Little Okaw Conference Title. With a record of 12 and 5, this was a victory well deserved. To the many seniors, this was a very good way for them to end their last season. All of the players hope that they can hold on to the title next year. The many wins was what gave the team the determination to keep going and not give up. Teamwork also helped keep them going, and these were the main keys to the Bulldog’s job well done. I he Bement Bulldogs bench watches as the Monticello Sages have the field. Baseball 45 “I had a great time this year cheering. I liked being there to cheer for the football team when they won the L.O.V.C. championship,” said freshman Tonya Bowdre. This year, both cheerleading squads put forth a lot of effort cheering the football and basketball teams to victory. Their efforts paid off in their reward of getting new uniforms. The Junior Varsity spent the year working concession stands to raise money, while both squads sold B-Club candy and suntan lotion. The money was put into the cheerleading funds to be used for going to camp. “I will miss it,” said senior Valerie Jennings, ‘‘everyone was like a big family and being a cheerleader, I got to meet people and got to know people better than if I weren’t.” Both squads would like to thank Joye Sprague for her help throughout the year. 3 1.

But that wasn’t really so, because there was More there Than Met the Eye. School took up much of your time. Long hours were spent doing homework and studying. This often meant staying up late after the game, play practice, or work. If there weren’t enough hours in the night you often had to take a dress-cut in P.E., skip lunch, or finish your assignments in a different class. For those who studied hard and received good grades, rewards were often received. Many students were on the honor roll, and an elite group were in National Honor Society or received gold B’s at graduation, some were given gifts or cash from their parents, while for others, it was only for their own satisfaction. And then there were always those who chose not to study and do homework. While most cheaters went undetected, a few were caught which often meant more zero’s, detentions, or redoing the work. Finally, the year came to a close. Whether you were promoted a grade or were one of the “lucky” seniors who graduated when you looked back over the 1983-84 school year, you thought it wasn’t really all that bad, you thought of all the year’s happenings and decided that the year wasn’t really that bad, because there was More to it Than Met the Eye. Senior Karla Satterfeal stretches out before she takes part in today's P.E. activity. Academic Magazine Grade “A” Choice Editor’s Note — The following composition is not necessarily the opinion of the Annual Staff. The pressures of today’s society are extremely great for young people. They have far too many problems to deal with besides worrying about school grades. This is one of the reasons I feel school age people should not be graded by a letter, but instead by either pass or fail. What do the grades A, B, C, D, and U mean? Well, to some people an A is a tremendous accomplishment, while a U is a tragedy. Students get overly obsessed with getting the best grades possible. One little slip and their self-esteem goes right down the drain. Students get so worried and upset over grades, they forget that life isn’t all that bad. On the other hand some kids could care less about their grades. To them grades are just a bother or a bore. So grades in that perspective are of no use anyway. I feel any student would be more comfort- able with their school and classes if the grading system was abolished. Teachers, parents, and peers are all guilty of judging people somewhat, by the grades they make. Teachers enjoy teaching almost anybody, but their favorite students are usually the A and B students. Most parents reward their good grade kids, while their bad grade kids get nothing but a never ending lecture on keeping their grades up. Some parents even go as far as buying their teenager a new car with the promise that they'll make good grades. Once those grades start sliding they can kiss their wheels good-bye! Today's competition is not just limited to the jocks of this world but also to the scholars. Students become villians and compete with even their best friends to get a better grade than them. As soon as a teacher hands back a test, the first question your friend asks you is. “W’hat did you get?” ‘‘I got an “A'’ ha, ha, ha.” Seniors use their grades to compete for scholarships and awards at graduation. A senior might try very hard for an award, but due to bad grades they can't even begin to compete for it. Some seniors feel as if they never existed with the class. This is because only a handful will he recognized for a high grade point, while the C and D students sit back with a fake smile on their lips trying not to scream. I’m not saying school would be more exciting or easier if we went to pass-fail, but it would be less of a task for everyone. We Kim Hooker should leave the A’s, B’s, C’s, D’s, and U's for the grading of eggs not people. — Kim Hooker What If You ... Could Describe The Perfect Student? “The perfect student would be someone, not necessarily an A student, who works hard, studies, and truly enjoys school and learning.” — Sue Fristoe “Me.” A Freshman Boy “The perfect student is someone who works hard for the grades they get and tries in any situation to do their best.” — Tammy Taylor “A person who gets good grades.” — Daniel O’Connor “A person who tries hard to get good grades and if he isn’t satisfied he says, “Next time I’ll try harder.” — Shane Mosely 50 Class Time Too Hot For Comfort By August 25, 1983 we were ready to begin another year. This day was accompanied by yawning and stretching due to the intense heat; because of this, school began at 7:40 A.M. and ended at 1:05 P.M., for the first two weeks of school. Kraig Rogers said, “1 liked it during football season be- cause we had a little time to get ready after school for practice and 1 also liked the shorter hours.” Some people were disappointed when the old schedule began. Denise Quick said, “I liked it and I wished it could have lasted a few more weeks. Dear Angie, Every night I get ready to do ray homework at approximately 6:15. Just as I am ready to settle down to some serious studying, my mom walks in and starts talking to me about her day at work. I sit there and try to listen, but my mind is on that homework that I have to finish before tomorrow. What do you suggest that I tell my mom? — Trying to be a Good Student Dear Student, I would say, “Mother, I’d really love to listen to you about your day. but I really need to get my studying done. I will be done in about an hour, then I’d love to hear about your day.” — Angie Gallagher Dear Dave, My little brother is such a pest. Whenever I do my homework, he always colors all over my papers with his crayons. How do I stop horn from ruining mv academic life? — Student in Need of Pest Control Dear Student in Need of Pest Control, I have little ones around my house, too. Maybe if you explain to them you could be hurt by this, they will stop. Try giving them more papers or a coloring book. If nothing else works, go in your room and lock the door. Of course, you could call a professional pest controller. — Dave Dalton Tracy Roberts Dear Tracy, My parents, teachers, and friends expect too much of me. They expect me to be popular, a good student, and to be the best basketball player in the state. How do I explain to them that I can’t survive under all of this pressure? About to Burst Dear About to Burst. I can relate with your problem. The same thing has happened to me. Remember, the whole point is to do your best and to have fun doing it. Just let your parents and friends know what they’re doing to you. If they care, they will understand and try to change. — Tracy Roberts Academic Magazine 51 Senior Mary Kirwan received the DAR award.

The FHA members that were honored were — Tara Larimore, Outstanding Freshman; Donna Mitchell, Outstanding Sophomore; Karrie Slagle, Outstanding Junior; Kim Hooker, Outstanding Senior. Also honored for her extra work was senior Pam Zindars. These awards were given to show the public all the hard work these girls have performed during their year’s membership in FHA. The Newsstaff honored editor Angie Gallagher, assistant editor Connie Ard, and incoming assistant editor Beth Cook. These members each received a purple carnation and Angie Gallagher also received a subscription to the Bement Record. Annual Staff advisor, Mrs. Kal-lembach introduced the 1984-85 yearbook editors Jacki Fogerson and Denise Quick. They each received a carnation for all of the hard work they have already done and that they will be doing in the next two years. Mrs. Kallembach gave the out going co-editors Lori Foran and Karen Wildman a going away speech and presented them each with a present for all of their work. They both deserve the credit for the putting out this yearbook. The new members added to the Thespian Society were Michele Montgomery, Brendan McHale, Tom Hensley, Kyle Rogers, Donna Mitchell, and Corine Fischer. Old members, John Woolley and Valerie Jennings, were presented the award of recognition. The Outstanding Thespian Award was given to Mary Kirwan. The National Honor Society initiated two new members Connie Ard and Michelle Gifford. Senior NHS members Sue Fristoe, Valerie Jennings, and Mary Kirwan conducted the ceremony. Earlier in the year the DAR award was presented to Mary Kirwan and the SAR award was presented to John Woolley. On May 15, the awards concert was held in the big gym. During the band section, Lori Foran received the Arion award and an award for being the 1983-84 flag captain. Mary Kirwan received the John Philip Sousa award and an award for being the 1983-84 drum major.

Congratulations to all of the honored members of Bement High School. National Honor Society members: Seniors Mary Kirwan, Valerie Jennings, Sue Fristoe and new members Connie Ard and Michelle Gifford. Awards 53 Homerooms Create Family Ties This year the Bement High School began a new tradition, homerooms. The idea behind homerooms is for the students and teachers to become closer — like a family. It gives everyone a chance to talk and get to know some of their classmates and teachers. In each homeroom there are approximately twelve people who will remain a family until they graduate. The teachers who have the Seniors will have the seventh grade classes the following year. The idea of homerooms originated from the Joseph Kennedy Foundation. Sophomore, Jacki Fogerson, said, “I really like my family because everyone in there are my friends who I can get along with and I can talk to.” Mr. Melvin a family ‘father’ said, “I want the kids to get more concerned over student issues so I try to have discussions about them.” “At first I didn’t like the idea, but now I think that it’s worth it. The main reason I think that it is worthwhile is because the students are starting to open up to me,” said Mrs. Kallembach, a seventh grade “Mom.” (above) Mrs. Flood holds a discussion during her homeroom time, (right) Tauna Kiser looks at her family tree, (below) “Father” Terry Melvin’s “children” Lora Manalisay, Denise Quick, and Jacki Fogerson. 54 Class Time Homerooms 55 M eeting Time And More Beyond attending classes and doing homework, students broadened their horizons by joining and being involved in different clubs. Similar interests brought these people together. These interests varied. Bement High School offered nine different clubs for its students to be active in. They included B-Club, Student Council, French Club, News-staff, Industrial Arts Club, FHA, Library Club, Thespians, and Annual Staff. The clubs varied in their interests, requirements to be a member, number of participants, prestige, and the power of their officers. Overall, the clubs had a prosperous and exciting year. They met, raised money, spent money, planned club parties and all-school events, made friends, and had a great time doing so. Many lasting memories were made — in fact, there was More to the year Than Met The Eye. Annual Staff members, Karen Wildman, Denise Quick, and Lori Foran, take a break after a long day of selling ads for the 1984 yearbook.

Friends And Keeping Busy Are Functions Of Clubs When students reach their high school years, the majority find that the only way to make the most out of this time in their lives is to join clubs and become involved. Through these clubs, many lasting friendships are formed. Freshmen Craig Shonk- wieler and Darrell Timme (two members of the I.A. club) said they mostly remembered their trip to E.I.U.

They received second in the Tuscola parade, third at Farmer City and a fifth at the U of I. This year at the fall concert the community band played with the high school band for a few of their songs. Again, as always, they sold cheese and sausage. On March 16, 1984 the band went to Chicago to see the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Everyone really enjoyed the trip. The Marching Bulldogs did something very different this year; they had to perform at halftime at a game before Halloween so they all dressed in costumes. As they walked off the field they threw candy to the people in the bleachers. Flags — Corine Fischer, Michele Montgomery, and Darlene Cody practice their flag routine before the start of the parade.

Thespians do many things during the year. This year the Thespians went to see Camelot and My Fair Lady. The 1983-1984 Thespians are John Woolley, Gail Gentry, Mary Kirwan, Valerie Jennings, Lori Foran, and Pam Zindars. The 1984-85 Thespians are Corine Fischer, Tom Hensley, Brendan McHale, Donna Mitchell, Michelle Montgomery, and Kyle Rogers. The initiation of new members was held May 14,1984 in the small gym. Chosen for outstanding Thespian was Mary Kirwan. Miss Sharp presented this award to Mary. She said that she remembered Mary coming to play practice with her sister Bridget, when Bridget was involved in theater at BHS. Also chosen for awards were John Woolley and Valerie Jennings. To become a Thespian, you have to earn 10 points by memorizing lines for plays and working on various committees. One point is equivalent to 10 hours of hard work. Mrs. Flood was the advisor for the Thespians. Valerie Jennings was the 1983-1984 President. Mary Kirwan was 1983-1984 Secretary.

They started the year off by selling spices and memo cubes as a fund raiser. The fund raiser made about $500 to provide FHA with enough funds for the 83-84 school year. In the Homecoming parade, FHA had a walking entry consisting of clowns with balloons. The clowns included Amy Cantrell, Tina Hislope, Kelly Smith and Beth Stengel. Morp was popular this year with all the high school students. The band was Slipstream and they put on an electrifying performance. The band kept the students rockin and bopin to the music that went with the theme, “Old Time Rock and Roll.” Freshman Theresa Roderick stated, “I think the band was great and I can’t wait until next year.” FHA week, Feb. 13-17, proved beyond a doubt that there is FHA spirit in BHS. On Monday mornings, FHA members sold orange juice and doughnuts to prepare students for their early morning classes. John Woolley was this year’s Mr. Heartthrob, he said, “It was a thrilling feeling to be so popular with the FHA members. I thank them all.” Red and White Day was the closing activity of FHA week. Every member with the FHA spirit showed it by wearing the colors of FHA; red and white. The annual FHA rally took place at the Decatur Civic Center on Feb. 15. FHA members left at 8:30 a.m. on the bus. The main activity that attracted the members was the Jazzercise class, that took place right before lunch was served. Junior Jamie Ater said, “It was really fun and exciting, but also exhausting. I really enjoyed it.” Whether they’re Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, or Senior, they all enjoyed the FHA year and underclassman are excited about the up-coming year. 66 Meeting Time Senior Pam Zindars and freshman Tara Buckner take a minute to talk at Morp.

Advisor Terry Melvin said that students were wanting to be in the Industrial Arts Club until it came time to pay their dues. Officers had been elected by the club members and then were lost, along with half of the club members, because no one was willing to pay the dues. The fee of $5.00 was asked to be paid by each member so the club would have some money in their treasury. Mr. Melvin said, “We lost a lot of people, but now we have a more serious group; we hope to accomplish a lot.” Advisor Terry Melvin and sophomore, Ted Tieman, make the best of an Industrial Arts Club meeting, (below) Chuck Burgener, Kevin Harris, Corey Lari-more, and Craig Shonkwiler listen attentively while their advisor discusses future plans. 68 Meeting Time Industrial Arts Club, Front Row — Dan Koester, Lori Burgener, Kendra Phipps, Steve Walsh.

This year, Newsstaff including editor Angie Gallagher and assistant editor Connie Ard, worked long and hard. At the beginning of the school year, members decided to change the paper’s name. “The Bulldogs Bark” became simply “The Bark”. The members felt the name was too long and took up to much space. This year’s staff also worked long and hard to produce specialty issues. Some of these issues included such topics as missing children, death, and summer. For fundraisers, Newsstaff sold subscriptions to the Bement Record and published and sold the Senior Issue. All in all, Newsstaff worked well together and had a very successful year. Tracy Roberts and Connie Ard try to come up with new ideas for the Senior Issue. Newsstaff 71 i Howard Chapman, the new addition to Annual Staff, works up a thirst typing at the April deadline. Lori and Karen were caught off-guard while discussing what still needed to he done. In the background Denise Quick, Susan Whiteside, and Jacki Fogerson work diligently on their pages. 72 Yearbook Staff 1983-1984 yearbook editors are Lori Foran and Karen Wildman. They have been busy working on the yearbook since the 1983 summer. Karen and Lori went to a yearbook camp at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. There they planned the theme for the yearbook and what to put in the yearbook. At the beginning of the year the Annual Staff started off the school year with a wiener roast at Mrs. Kallembach’s house. Mrs. Kal-lembach is the sponsor for the Annual Staff. At the wiener roast the new yearbooks were passed out to the students on Annual Staff. To raise money, during yearbook week yearbooks were sold all week, a baby picture contest was held, old pictures and Palagrams were sold, and a M N count was held. Throughout the year deadlines are set for the people on Annual Staff to get their pages finished. This year there were four deadlines. One was in December. Two were in April, and the last one was in May. Every Monday students on Annual Staff were to stay after school and work on their pages. The Annual Staff started out with about 40 people, but at the end of the year members totaled about 15. The members on Annual Staff worked concession stands at football games to make extra money for the yearbook. This school year the Annual Staff made about $3,800. $2,500 of the money was from ads sold to businesses to be put in the yearbook. About 90 yearbooks were sold all together. Why was the yearbook named Portrait of Pride? Good question right? The reason is because Co-editors, Karen Wildman and Lori Foran stated, “Out of the many choices such as Bulldonian, Bulldog Review, Baker’s Dozen, and Portrait of Pride, the latter stands out by itself.” Wouldn’t you agree? Annual Staff members starting at the bottom, Howard Chapman, Jacki Fogerson, Denise Quick, Corine Fischer, Susan Whiteside, Karen Wildman co-editor. Lori Foran co-editor, Sheri Kallembach — advisor. Tracy Cozad and Beth Stengel were absent when picture was taken. 73 Student Government Learns Unity Is The Key To Success For Student Council, the year began with homecoming, which turned out to be a big success. After several weeks of preparation, the big night finally arrived and everyone was pleased with the results. President Stephanie Bur-gener said, “Everyone worked hard together to make homecoming a success and I thought it really showed.” Throughout the year, the Council held several meetings and discussed ideas found in the suggestion box. These ideas were then brought up at the faculty-advisory meetings in which Student Council members attended. In March, 3 members and 2 advisors attended the District Convention at the Ramada Inn in Champaign. These people were: Jacki Fogerson, Denise Quick, Heidi Radmaker, Miss Minnie Gudauskas, and Mr. Kent LeF-ever. They learned many ways to make money and improve the Council. 1983-84 Student Council Members from bottom left: Corey Larimore, Tyler Morton, Amy Cook, Sharon Stoerger, Mike Day, Beth Cook, Heidi Radmaker, Denise Quick, Jacki Fogerson, Jody Lewis, Advisor Minnie Gudauskas, Brendan McHale, Brenda Moefield, Kraig Rogers, Lori Burgener, Colleen O'Connor, Valerie Jennings, Kyle Rogers, Sue Fristoe, David Guffey, Stephanie Burgener, Advisor Kent LeFever (above) Student Council Members listen attentively to suggestions from the suggestion box. 74 Meeting Time Above: A group of Student Council members discuss ideas among themselves. right: President Stephanie Burgener takes control of the situation, below: Members tune in so they can offer ideas.

The French Cluh did many various things this year. They gave fruit baskets to the elderly, went to a French Rock Concert, and are planning for a few students to go to France and visit many other countries. The French students that are planning on going to France will visit: London, England, Italy, and Switzerland. Other highlights will be visiting museums, seeing the Eiffel Tower, and other sightseeing.

The people that are going are: Lori Foran, Ellen Foran, Mary Kirwan, Bridget Kirwan, Jeannie Kirwan, Tracy Roberts, Ton Hensley, Beth Cook, Amy Cook, and Julie Cahill, along with Mrs. Gaigalas. This year the Mardi Gras was held as usual. This time they had an honored guest, Emmanuel Mucci. This year’s king and queen are: Lisa Martin and Jeff Vezina. The Best Costume went to Sue Fristoe. When the students went to the French Rock Concert most of them agreed that the concert wasn’t all that great. But they sure enjoyed going out to eat at Josephines. Because the food tasted so good!

French Club 79 RIME________ time and more Among all the fine opportunities high school has to offer, a student’s social life becomes a bit more interesting than it was in junior high. This was a time when you began to develop your social life. Most students found that Pizza Man gave them the perfect environment to relax and talk with their friends on those weekend nights when they couldn’t find much else going on around town. Of course with a town the size of Bement (population 1800) that was quite often. But students didn’t always confine themselves to Bement. They often traveled to other surrounding cities. Many nights were spent in Champaign-Urbana or Decatur. This was because those cities were the closest that had theaters. Also, April 28 prom was held in Champaign at the Towne Hall, so this gave the students another reason to go to the big city. Some found that Monticello was, sometimes, also more exciting than Bement. But, everyone could easily be found cruising around Bement at least for five minutes before heading home to make sure nothing exciting happened while they were away. Of course the activities changed with the seasons. In the winter months, most stuck to watching television or going to a friend’s house. Sometimes by just getting out of the house YOU could see what was going on behind the scenes . . . you could see MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. Mary Kirwan and Tracy Roberts eat at the Flag X-mas party.

Back row: Laima Gaigalas, French teacher and group leader, Beth Cook, Lori Foran, Tom Hensley. Not pictured was Tracy Roberts. Others will join the group for the trip. Editor’s Note: The following article was written hv Beth Cook in the February 2, 1984 edition of “The Bark” (the school newspaper). Students Prepare For Trip “Voila les eleves qui ont de la chance.” What does this mean? Here are the students who are lucky. If you don’t understand why, then you probably are not one of the six students going to France this summer. The six students going are Mary Kirwan and Lori Foran, both seniors; Tom Hensley, a junior; Tracy Roberts and Beth Cook, both sophomores; and Amy Cook, a freshman. Also going are Jeanne Kirwan, Bridget Kirwan, Ellen Foran, Denise Mueller, Julie Cahill and advisor Mrs. Gaigalas, the French teacher at BHS. The trip was first proposed a few years ago and was talked about, but it never really happened until now. This year a couple of students came up to Mrs. Gaigalas and asked if they were going to France or not. Or course the answer was “let’s do it!” To get ready for the trip a lot must be done. The future travelers are in charge of getting their own passports and making payments on the trip. It costs approximately $1,469, not including the passport fee, lunches, souvenirs, tips, postcards and beverages. American Leadership Study Group (ALSG) is the sponsor. They send each one going a newsletter about various aspects of their trip, a flight bag, and information about what they will be seeing. They also send a movie to watch. A representative comes to the school and answers questions. The group will leave on June 13 and will return 16 days later. Each person can bring only one suitcase each weighing no more than 44 pounds totally full. This includes clothes for 16 days and souvenirs on the trip. Amy Cook, the only freshman going, thought the plane trip along with the viewing of the Eiffel Tower and the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace was what she most looked forward to seeing. Tom Hensley, a junior looks forward to seeing the Louvre and the Mona Lisa. Beth Cook, a sophomore, thinks the plane ride will be fun, but long. Lori Foran, a senior, looks forward to visiting a perfume factory. The plane trip will take the most time. It will take a day. Even before the plane trip there will be a trip to Chicago by car. Sophomore Tracy Roberts revealed that she will be riding on a plane for the first time. This, however, doesn’t frighten her because she plans to keep busy by reading a book and talking to her friends. Only half of the people on the airplane can look out the windows — so some sacrificing must be done. The people going will not only be going through France, but also a small section of Italy, Switzerland and also land and depart from London. The travelers, will hopefully return with many memories and a great deal to share with their classmates. 82 Prime Time Excuses Excuses Mr. Zollman I Know You Have Heard This Before But Don’t you just hate being late for anything. When you walk into a class late, teachers always manage to give you one of their cold stare-down sort of looks. It’s a feeling students detest, but most of us have this experience more often than we like. Here are some popular excuses for being late to school: — I was late for school because there was a train on the tracks — I had to walk to school because I flooded my car — I had a flat — I had company — I overslept — I was late for class because: — I was talking to Mr. Zollman — I needed a drink — I was in the bathroom — I couldn’t find my notebook — I was helping a new student find the French room — I was late turning my assignment in because: Awkward Moments “When Mrs. Gaigalas asked me in French how I was and I told her my name (in French).” — Kraig Rogers “While I was in driver’s ed., my eyes started to water due to the glare off the road and Mr. Bishop thought I was crying because of the sad song on the radio — so being the gentleman he was he changed the station.” — Michele Montgomery “When I hit Connie Ard’s truck and dented the driver’s ed. car while driving in driver’s ed.” — Ellen Gentry “When I took Miss Sharp’s keys at a play practice and I forgot to give them back to her. She had to call me when I got home to tell me to bring them back.” — Tom Hensley — I finally cleaned my room and threw away my homework with a stack of papers. — the dog ate it — my sister drew on it with her crayons — it was in the pocket of my jeans and my mom washed it — it fell in a mud puddle — it’s in my other notebook . . . the one that’s at home!!

She chose this play from several because it had a large cast and many people were planning on trying out. The play cast worked extra hard to produce this comedy. Many practices were cancelled due to teacher workshops, track meets, baseball games, and snow days. Members made up for these much needed rehearsals that were cancelled by working extra hard and putting all of their effort into the few rehearsals they did have. The play begins with a troup oi strolling players telling the story of Voltaire’s “Candide” to a group of spectators on stage.” The play was held April 20 and 21, and those who attended thought it was a success. Junior Brendon McHale tries to charm the audience with his snake charming act.

Play 85 The Biggest Issue Of The Week A weekend is special when you spent it with friends doing what you like to do best. It would not be complete without the smell of pizza and the sounds of Genesis, Michael Jackson, Quite Riot, and Culture Club. The weekend just brings a sort of restless spirit because school is out and you have the weekend all to yourself. Some of the students find themselves with nothing to do on the weekend so they cruise around town with the loud sound of music playing or they go to the bowling alley to bowl, have a snack, or even play a single video game. Others find themselves at Pizza Man eating a large pizza and salad with friends and listening to the best rock-and-roll of the 20th century. The rest of them go to the Youth Center to play pool, video games, computer games, and some just come to drink pop and eat candy. Since the curfew is up at midnight, some of the students think that this spoils the weekend because they have to go home during the “early” hours. Monday the weekend always seems to be the big topic of gossip for the day. FHA advisor Ann Borelli and her husband Ray find time to “party” at Morp. Senior Gail Gentry seems to be enjoying herself on the dance floor at the Homecoming coronation.

The soft, cuddly, life-like dolls are what swept the country this year. Cabbage Patch Kids were on the top of everybody’s Christmas lists, including many students from BHS. But only the lucky ones received them. Cabbage Patch Kids weren’t the only thing that everybody loved this year. Michael Jackson was a huge success too. Students could be seen wearing Michael Jackson t-shirts and buttons, and they could be heard singing his songs all day long. Among the guys, it was popular to wear Levi’s and button down collars this year. In many towns, it was popular for guys to get one ear pierced. The girls seemed to take on a more “macho” look: jean jackets, leather jackets, beads, big earrings, collars turned up, and bilevel haircuts. As everyone knows, as times change, fashions change, and each year, more and more students seem to go with the flow. 90 Prime Time Lori Foran’s Cabbage Patch Kid, Clauette Brittany Foran, gives the camera an adorable smile Fads Fa OS time and more At least once a day we could be seen traveling to our destination — Bodman Street — downtown Bement. Here we could find just about anything we needed from tooth paste to pizza. If it couldn’t be found there, we would then seek our needs from other surrounding communities such as: Monticello, Ivesdale, Cerro Gordo, Atwood and Hammond. There, we would usually find what we needed, and we were always helped by courteous merchants. At graduation time, Seniors were congratulated and given gifts from these businesses. A few were: Bement Grain Co. — portfolio, State Bank of Bement — $1,000 life insurance policy and miniature diploma, and from Leiper’s Furniture Store — girls received a miniature hope chest.

Most students worked in town at places such as Pizza Man, IGA, Rooster Inn, Sunoco, Country Store, or farming with their parents. A few ventured out more and worked out of town in Monticello, Decatur, and Champaign. Most students worked for the money. Although some jobs paid more than others, most people were satisfied with their jobs. Many felt, though, that they took up too much time; but students learned to give up some events and rearrange their social lives around their schedules at work. Money earned from these jobs was spent in a variety of ways. Students often saved their money to buy a car. After they finally, got their own car, they always needed money for repairs and gas. Others saved their money for a college education after high school. Money was always needed for records, tapes, and new clothes, too.

For seniors, they were mixed emotions, feelings of accomplishment while accompanied by sadness and sorrow. For the rest of us, we were just happy that school was almost over. Spring brought new sports and the end of the year activities. May 14, Newsstaff, Annual Staff, French Club, FHA, Thespians, and National Honor Society for the first time held their ceremonies together. The baseball team did exceptionally well this year as they won the LOVC championship. Individuals stood out in spring sports, too. The U of I baseball coach “had his eye on” Danny Koester, while Mary Kirwan broke the school’s 4’10” high jump record with a jump of 4’H”. Of course seniors could always be heard complaining about everybody and worrying about next year. Swing choir, flag and rifles, Student Council, FHA, and Annual Staff had meetings for the 1984-85 school year. Seniors said that they felt like outsiders when people did this. As the end of the year approached seniors became anxious. It was common to find a count-down in each homeroom. May 18, seniors held a luncheon at the Rooster Inn. Afterwards, they held graduation practice. Mr. Zollman said that if everything went well this would become a tradition. On May 25, at 8:00 p.m. the class of ’84 walked single file into the big gym while the band played Pomp and Circumstance. This concluded their dozen golden years at BHS. They had shared their greatest days. And they knew that they would carry common memories with them throughout life. Looking back over the 1983-84 school year, everyone agreed that they would remember this year. They would keep a spot, deep-down inside them and never forget because somehow, no matter how they looked at it — there was More to it Than Meets the Eye. Donna Mitchell, Jody Lewis, and Beth Cook wait for their pizza at the Newsstaff pizza party held May 14 at Pizza Man. .: K- 118 Closing For Student Council Week held May 8-11. Don Quick dressed up as Miss Gudauskas on teacher look-a-like day. Senior Gail Gentry does some last minute studying for her last semester exams. Rusty Hislope, John McCullough, and Sue Fristoe see what track events are next. Closing 119 A Year Of Memories We shared our greatest days together. Memories were made that we will cherish for a lifetime. Although all experienced some growing pains along the way, we survived another year. For most of us, we will remember the times spent with friends. The rest of us may have entirely different memories. Of course, there is always More in a year than Meets the Eye. Coach Lane calmly explains the situation to Danny Koester. 120 Closing OLQPHON and more Volume 2 of the Bement High School PORTRAIT OF PRIDE was printed by Jos-ten’s Publishing Company in Clarksville, Tennessee.
