Advisor.........................Judy Cole Behind The v xtv The thrust behind the horse shoe is the students and faculty—2,150 strong. The administration, although bending with new rules and regulations imposed by a change in central administration leadership, continued to support the student body. Parents and students comprised the crowds j that cheered'the Bronc teams as they competed across the state; some brought home trophies, others didn’t. But no matter how the teams performed, administrators, parents, and students were the people BEHIND THE LUCK! Backstage on opening NIGHT, nerves are tense as aspir- ing actors and actresses apply make op base. Starring in Barretts of Wimple Street were Devin Jensen, Bonnie Finch, Lisa Boyer, and Heidi Hermstad. Supporting the stu- dent BODY for nearly 25 years, Robert Zupan notifies students of another school record. Smiling at the news are Carol Ohnstad, Corey Phelps, Laurie Hagen, Adam Cox, Dave Shea, Mike O’Donnell, and Kathy Schmalz. Cv kTCHING THE ACTION, Journalism photographers record- ed the year on film.

The boys competed in an all-male cheer, blocking the girls from the cameras. 5 Intro C'LOWINING AROUND with makeup, Lee Jordan prepares for (he A.F.S. follies. The Follies are sponsored each year by (be Z-Oub as a fundraiser for (be American Field Service student exchange program. p It Wasn’t All yvitV- People don’t always realize how much work goes into a great accomplishment. Their natural response is, ‘‘Wasn’t that lucky?” For instance, who ever thought about the hours spent preparing for the A.F.S. follies; or the sweat, rips and wipeouts the guys gymanstics team went through trying to perfect their routines! Also, how about the contributions made to win the blood drive, and the endless hours we spend studying for that final “A”. Let’s here it for these and the many others who work so hard to make Senior the best! These people proved IT WASN'T ALL LUCK! 6'Bronc discovered. A graduate of Senior High, Kessler returned 10 years ago to awaken students with historical facts. G IVING IS WHAT IT TAKES to keep the blood drive trophy In Senior High's trophy case; but cross-town rivals, West High, also gives from the heart which keeps the trophy traveling from school to school. Robert Zupan, activities director, and Teresa Lloyd are among the doners providing luck for needy patients. Getting good grades takes more than luck, as students In Gerald Kessler's class Winners! The boys gym- □astic team returned from the state gymnastics meet Feb. 10-11 in Helena with the first place trophy. The winners include Scott Glesick, Bob Morgan, Todd Rivers Coach, Ted Poiete, Dan Salacfinsld, Terril Bracken, and Kip Madsen. J 7 Intro mmm When Our Ran Out Biggest is not always best. Even though Senior High is the largest school in the state, it, too, had its disappointments. However, with activities overlapp- ing throughout the year, one let down was compen- sated by another victory. Spirits remained at an all- time high even WHEN OUR LUCK RAN OUT! Spirit motivator, Viet- nam veteran, Dave Roever, visited Senior High when it needed him most. The inspirational speaker launched the new year at an all- school assembly telling students to be their own persons. His speech affected the student body the way a gernade affected his fac? explosive!

Throughout 1983-84, Billings got a taste of everything from pro hockey vs. Olympic teams to strict enforce- ment of traffic laws. The sports scene proved disappointing for Billings sports fans. Although the city lost one professional sport, it gained a hopeful new one. Pro- fessional hockey returned to Billings when the Witchita Wind of the Central Hockey League came to the city and was renamed the Montana Magic. Unfortunately, the team did not get as much support as anticipated. Billings also hosted the U.S. Olympic volleyball game against Cuba at Eastern Mon- tan College. The year was also filled with controversy and complaints. The Yellowstone County Jail reached its capacity and thus new locations were sought. Proposed sites included Lin- coln Junior High, a location on 27th street, and a westend loca- tion. The site voted by city council members was property owned by the city near the county shops. Another major issue this year was the ticket quota. The Police Department came down hard on the speeders and other traffic violators. The quota’s purpose was added safety on the roads. This created much controversy since many people felt that the quota did not increase safety, only revenue for the depart- ment. Other area events included the shut down of Pierce Pack- ing, sub-zero temperatures in December, rejection of the sewer proposal in the Heights and an increase in residential construction, thus keeping up with Magic City growth. . 1 Americans Led Attacks, Won Medals on Foreign Shores A sense of fear was brought to young and old alike as the United States sent troops to foreign shores. Panic set in among students wondering “Will we go to war? Will I be drafted?” The U.S. led a force of Carib- bean nations in an invasion of the tiny island of Grenada. A radical group had overthrown the Government and President Reagen said the mission was necessary to project Ar icans on the island. One r tion that still remu; 1 in ents minds was why didn’t Reagan remove the troops completely? Beirut, Lebanon was another hot spot. In October, a suicide bomber drove a truck into the U.S. Marine headquarters at the Beirut Airport. The explo- sion killed 241 American ser- vicemen. This was the largest loss of U.S. lives in one inci- dent since Vietnam. A death in the Soviet Union sent Vice President George Bush to the country for the funeral of Yuri Andropov who died early in ‘84. While the Soviet Union was losing leaders, the U.S. was gaining presidential hopefuls. Throughout spring, Gary Hart, Walter Mondaie, and Jesse Jackson battled it out for the Democratic nomination. Even though the Americans did not do as well as in 1980, they made a strong showing at the Olympics in Yugoslavia. Brothers Phil and Steve Mahre took gold and silver medals in slalom skiing. Rosalynn Sumners won a silver in the figure skating competition, the brother and sister team, Pauf and Kitty Carruthers took the silver medal in pair skating, and Scott Hamilton won the gold in figuare skating. Debbie Armstrong and Christin Cooper took the gold and silver in the Giant Slalom. Darkhorse Bill Johnson sur- prised everyone by winning a gold in downhill skiing. The United States won a total of eight medals, four gold and four silver. They placed fifth over all. ! ll Mini Mag.

Some break out the suntan lo- tion and head for the pool, while others scarcely take a day off before hitting up their employers for full-time jobs. Very few, however, have the opportunity to travel overseas. During the summer, several groups of students visited European countries in order to enhance their understanding of that continent’s people and customs. It almost goes without say- ing that these trips, involving thousands of miles, will con- tain a minimum number of disasters. Sue Bach, an English teacher at West High, barely got her group out of the coun- try; they missed their connec- ting flight from New York, and were forced to spend the first night on the road in the States. “It was really cool,” said John Graf, Senior High senior, about the predicament, “even though we were mad.” Valerie Bierweiler’s group also had some difficulty getting it together in New York’s Ken- nedy Airport, “Our group got separated, and some people almost missed the plane,” said Karri Weasel, who traveled with Bierweiler, a Senior High French teacher. Deanne Harrison giggled a little as she confessed, “Our biggest disaster was when we iSra 4itii0HKfr left a person in Paris. Somebody called out his number on the bus, so we though he was there and we left.” And the pleasant highlights of the trip? Well, that depends on who you talk to. Harrison, who traveled with Montana Youth Choir, thought the cusine lived up to it’s reputa- tion, “The food was one of the best parts of the trip. Everthing was SO delicious!” Wessel liked Switzerland because, “It was the prettiest; seeing snow in Ju- ly was really neat.” Although she was impressed with the different lifestyles, Lisa Boyer noted that, “As Americans, we tend to take many luxuries for granted. The only kind of pop we could buy was Coke; it was luke warm because they don’t use ice, and expensive (about $3 a glass).” One of the biggest shocks for the Americans was that the Europeans don’t always welcome them. Becky Brown said, “In some countries the people resented us, as Americans, because we couldn’t speak their language. But not all Europeans were un- friendly, we met a lot of really interesting people.” Wessel, twho saw an anti-nuclear demonstration in Rome said, 4In Montana we're naive about what’s going on. Some Euro- peans hate America; they think we’re all pro-nuclear war,” Rodeoing Ranks Number On Summer is a time for students to relax and do what they usually do not have time for during the hectic school year. For most, summer is a time for hobbies and one Such hobby that does not receive the attention school sports receive is rodeoing. During the summer months, several Senior High students pursue this sport. Senior Tammy Hinman has grown up around horses and started riding at a very young age. Be- ing a horse lover since such an early age, Tammy has “learned more than just riding.” Much time is spent daily doing chores such as feeding the horses, cleaning their stalls, and exer- cising and training them. But the moment does come when the hard work of training pays off. Tammy takes to the road during summers and par- ticipates in local shows as well as state wide horse shov s. The summer of ‘83 proved to be a good one for Tammy. She received many awards and honors including the Cham- pion Showman Award and the Champion of Champions Showman Award during the Yellowstone Exhibition. “Next summer also looks good”, Tammy said. She will campaign all summer for the American Quarterhorse Finals in Tulsa, Oklahoma, She will also be competing for the title of NILE ! Tammy Hinman popular Queen during the NILE Redeo next fall. Obviously, such an extraor- dinary hobby has many rewards, including ac- complishing set goals. Tammy said, “I work for it myself and I didn’t take anything from anyone to get there.” However, one drawback of this interesting hobby is the cost. A rough estimate of $6,000 per year is spent for food, grooming, equipment, competitions and travel. Rodeoing is most definitely a unique hobby and it requires a special person to maintain an interest in it. Tammy says, “It is hard work, but it inspires me to do more until I reach my goals.” ________________ - - - i Efi S is “TAKE YOUR BEST shot shouts PJ.

Well, there are activities for everybody, The majority of students look forward to summer because of swimming. Some students are lifeguards at the various public pools, but most spend their time Swimming simply to cool off from the unbearable heat. Another popular pastime, especially for girls, is suntanning. Of course, one can suntan anywhere, but the best suntanning location is on Rims. Summer is also a time for the ambitious teenagers to work and earn their own money. Most part-time jobs are those offered by the fast food restaurants. For the sports lovers, there are the baseball games to enjoy at Cobb Field. The local teams are the Billings Royals, The Billings Scarlets and the Mustangs.

Spirit week began with a beautiful 85 degree day and sweats were the costume of the day; but, typical of Montana weather, the thermometer fell to a mere forty-five degrees by Fri- day. But weather didn’t seem to dampen the students’ or facultys’ spirit or pride for the Broncs: many were seen taking part in Hawaiian day, 50’s day, Punk day, and of course, the spirited orange and black day. To brighten the gloomy weather, on Friday the majorettes distributed over 1500 B-Day mums to the students and teachers. Due to rain and sleet, the location of the picnic and country fair was chang- ed to the old gym, but the activities went as planned. Ninty-three faculty members served chicken to the students, who then gathered in the new gym for the pep rally led by the cheerleaders and Horn Patrol. Many clubs added to the excitment by setting up traditional carnival-type booths such as the pie toss, dart throw, and balloon shaving contest. Because of unco-operative weather, the famous dunking booth was not available. A new booth, sponsored by the Drama Department, took its place. Students and faculty members lined up for hours to pose in old fashioned costumes. In spite of the rain, the game started right on schedule Friday night. Second quarter ended with a score of 0-6--the Great Falls Bison leading. Spirits were lifted by an outstanding half-time show presented by the BSHS majorettes and marching band. Immediately following the performance, a white car decorated in B-Day fashion -- drivien by an anonymous driver--spun a broadie in the middle of the football field. Unfor- tunately the mystery driver didn’t have enough ‘‘drive” to help the Broncs “Herd the Bison!” Senior was defeated 0-8 by Great Falls High. To conclude the spirit week, Pep Club sponsered the Homecoming dance D.J.’d by Y-93. The theme of the dance, “Forever’s Gonna Start Tonight,” was conceived from the hit single “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler. At eleven o’clock seniors Jackie Schanz and Kurt Llewellyn were crowned B-Day king and queen. Other candidates were Tami Bartlett, Shawn Cosgrove, Carolyn Geiger, Tom Lambdin, Chad Maddox, Kathy Schmalz, Hillary Smith, and Randy Wagner.

The B-Day game was one In a series of close games. A tradition washed up? Each year as attendance at the B-Day carnival declines, the question of its con- tinuance rises. Because less than half the student body participated this year, the faculty council questioned its validity. Robert Zupan, activities director, explains, “Because of the poor attendance and the concern about school time, Student Council will have to seriously con- sider B-Day this spring.” He further commented that it would be more difficult to sell B-Day to the school board memebers next year, but that he was all for it. Board members must approve any time off school. Unless students can convince school board members to keep B-Day as a school tradition and unless more students participate in B-Day activities, it may be a washed-up tradition!

Mrs. Jasmer, a counselor at Senior High, was actively involv-l ed in the American Field Service and the FOCUS programs. | IStudents felt that Mrs. Jasmer always gave 150 percent in (everything she did and they valued her counseling advice. “She was really helpful with my career goals,” said Michelle I Zartman, senior. I I Junior Erin Abbey, commented, MI thought she was a con-| lcerned counselor and extremely understanding. I Mrs. Jasmer's fellow employees were equally touched with her devotion to her work. They felt that she had a magnificent sensei humor and an obviousjpecial caring forjcids. J Wanting to do something for all to remember Mrs. Jasmer, Gary Johnson, head counselor, has set up a scholarship fund in memory of her. This fund, in the amount of $850, was given to a student who worked with Mrs. Jasmer through AFS or was a counselee. The student had to have a GPA of 3.0 or above, and must attend an institution of higher learning during the 1984-85 school year. Mrs. Jasmer graduated from Senior High and Eastern Mon- tana College, taught at Lincoln Junior High for 14 years and counseled at Senior for the past four years. Mrs. Jasmer’s warmth, caring, and understanding will be treasured by us always and her presence will be greatly missed. 17 Intro c kJrPACE CADETS wear their helmets to Terry Corey’s science fiction class.

P.E. Work experience guarantees employment A diploma does not necessarily mean that one can get a job anywhere. Many times jobs require “experience.” Ray Olsen and Larry Boyer are getting that experience through the work study program. COMPUTER KNOWLEGE is one of the skills learned during the work study program. Ray Olsen and Larry Boyer try to tackle a program. The work study program began in 1968. It has given past students experience to apply to their lives after graduating “and, hopefully, it will keep doing that,” said John Rollman, instruc- tor. Thirty students were involved in the program this year, ac- cording to Madeline Bladow, also an instructor in the work ex- perience program. In the work study program students have the opportunity to learn job skills that they will use after graduation. Work study students may work at a printing shop, a wood shop, a welding shop, or a greenhouse at Grand Avenue School. They also may attend the Career Center or work in the community. Olsen worked in the school cafeteria trom 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. daily. The janitors were helped by Boyer between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. daily. Both received $2.50 an hour for their U'Ork experience. They also received credit for this experience. In the past these students have worked at Odegaards without getting paid. They helped in the service department, stocked shelves, and did some janitorial work, but mainly they observed the other workers and learned to survive in the public eye. Olsen said, the best way to survive is to get along with your boss.” . sa d, “It (the work study program) makes your whole a j . “ferent.” This experience is a challenge for these students ana it is ‘fun and interesting,” said Boyer. 22 Bronc (FRONT ROW) Donna Miller and Katie Link (SECOND ROW) Linda Pickens, Madeline Bladow, Georgie Josephson, and Mike McCollough (THIRD ROW) Sandra Corey, Darcy Conway, Eileen Roberts, Mike Jablin, and Gary Branae (BACK ROW) Dean Bladow, Leo Olson, John Miller, and Randy Morrison.

At Senior High computers were used in a variety of subjects including science, math, foreign languages, special education, and even English. The computers gave learning a whole new dimension and for some students it provided a challenge. “1 feel variety is the key to an interesting class,” commented Bob Landis, math teacher.“Computers have changed math. No longer do pro- blems have to have reasonable answers so that computation is possible. For example, in one problem a thousand calculations are now done when before ten were done.” Some teachers used the computers to help them in preparing tests, and lessons. Tests are printed on the word processor and copied on the offset for a professional look. Madeline Bladow used the computers in her room to help deal with math, English, spelling, and grammar. “I think every classroom should have a computer available to the teacher.” Bladow said. The library used two programs: the overdue program and cir- culation. These programs were written and specially designed for BSHS by Andy Young, a BSHS senior. “The efficiency of the computer saved hours and hours of time for the librarian,” commented Bunny Morrison, librarian. Senior High had 52 computers which were used daily from 7 a.m. until 10 p.m. Approximately 320 students were enrolled in computer programming classes. The demand tor computer programming classes became so great in the past years that a morning class was offered. Bob Landis and Vern McDermott taught these classes which had 30 students enrolled in the beginning class and 10 in the advanced. Will this trend continue? Dave Klarich, biology instructor, thinks it won’t. “They have added a new dimension, but I thinlk that the heralded changes ascribed to computers have been MPUTER WIZARDS work on their programs in room 302 under supervision of George Simek.

Don Glynn, Ray Mars, Ed Robbias, Robert Saltee, Hank Little and Laura Bishop ended their teaching careers to follow other paths. Instead of planning lessons and sorting papers for the follow- ing year, these teachers cleared their classrooms of momentos and years of teaching paraphernalia. The six officially retired June 7. Each has had a teaching career ranging from 12 to 32 years and not all of those years have been spent at Senior High. According to Glynn, “All 25 years teaching have kept me young.” The ’ six teachers commented that they were happy they chose teaching for their careers. Saltee said, “I wished I had gotten into college teaching.” Robbins began teaching school by coaching football although, he never coached in high school. In all cases, the memories are mostly favorable. In Saltee’s point of view, “Opening nights are always enjoyable and memorable.” The English teacher also coached drama and directed stagecraft. Robbins exclaimed, “The night Senior beat West at Bozeman in double overtime was memorable. He often captured moments like that overtime on films.” Mars also an English teacher said, “I enjoyed being present to see the Broncs win the state basketball championship in 1967 and the state football championship in 1979.” But each teacher did not cite one outstanding event he enjoyed most. They en- 26 Bronc 1 joyed “all the days” during their teaching careers. Seeking another job to most of the retirees is out of the ques- tion, but they all will enjoy their favorite hobbies. According to Little, “I will enjoy golfing more now since I can do it whenever I want, and not have to work around schedules.” Mars stated that, “I want to take up a job as a insurance claims adjusting agent, but only as a part time job.” Mars and Saltee left vacancies in the English department. Robbins taught geology and photography and Hank Little retired from a counseling position. Glynn left the history department in May taking early retire- ment due to illness. The sixth retiree may be jumping from the frying pan into the fire. Home ec and art instructor, Laura Bishop said she was retiring to be home with her three-year-old daughter and possibly add playmates to the family. “I’ve taught for 12 years,” Bishop said, “And it’s time for a change of pace.” • Bishop, a graduate of Montana State University, did her stu- dent teaching at Senior High and taught one year at Shepherd High School before returning to Senior High. “Senior is a great place to teach,” all six retirees echoed, and all promised to be back—some to substitute and others to drink coffee in the faculty lounge and to be kept up to date on war stories. I For better, for worse, but... also for work? In the morning most teachers say “goodbye” to their spouses and, breathing a sigh of relief, head off in separate directions to work. Some, however, are with each other on the way to work, at work, on the way home. Does this seem copeable? Three married couples work together at BSHS: the Bladows, the Morrises, and the Johnsons. Each of them has different views on what it is like working in the same building with his spouse. The Johnsons were married last June 11 and had a romantic honeymoon on a Carribean cruise. They met three years ago through the other teachers in the Home Ec Department. Pam was invited to a spaghetti dinner and she was introduced to Dennis there. Dennis’ sister-in-law also taught in the Home Ec epartment at BSHS. Do Pam and Dennis plan to raise a family? “Dennis would like to have a basketball team,” Pam said. Dennis teaches Math at BSHS and is the assistant coach for the boys varsity basketball team. Pam teaches family life and is the majorette advisor. The fact that they are both extremely in- volved in school makes their whole life school-oriented. Pam considers this one of the disadvantages of working together. The Morrises have been married for a longer time, but they have only been working together for the past two years. Before this Nancy Morris was the dean’s secretary at West High for five years. The Morrises met through Nancy’s parents who intro- duced her to Larry who was a bartender at Archer’s. One would think that working together makes it possible to see each other more often during the day, but that is not the case for the Morrises. “I never see him; we don’t even drive to school together,” commented Nancy. The Bladows, who both teach at Senior High, have been married for 23 years, but have only worked together for five years. Madeline has taught for twelve years and worked at BSHS before Dean, who previously taught at Lewis and Clark Junior High. They have three children; however, none of them plan to become teachers. “We didn’t encourage our kids to become teachers. Dean and I are the only teachers from each of our families,” Madeline said. The Bladows met at Mayville State College in North Dakota where they worked in the cafeteria. Even though th Bladows both teach, school is not discussed that much at home. “We discuss school on our 20-minute drive home,” remarked Madeline. “That’s the advantage of a long drive.” The Bladows own acreage near Laurel. It is possible to work in the same building and lead separate lives—all three couples agreed. TEACHERS WHO SHARE their lives at home as well as at work are (TOP TO BOTTOM) Pam and Dennis Johnson, Larry and Nancy Mor- ris, and Madeline and Dean Bladow. Knock 27 1 Gaelee Aagard Secertary Gran!

A $70,000 house was built by both boys and girls. A group effort of 168 students, contruction duties were divid- ed among six classes at the Center shared by Billings high schools for vocational classes. Drafting students designed the house, Construction II did the actual construction, electrical students wired, Construction I did the plumbing under the supervision of a local plumber, and the fabric students did the interior decorating. The graphics students made a pamphlet about the house to assist in the sale of it. The house under construction at the Career Center this year was built at the Career Center instead of being built on location where the house now resides. The reason for this change was that 19 percent of the students' time was wasted in traveling bet- ween the Career Center and the intended location of the house. The house is a modular home with 1,400 square feet with a completed basement. It has three bedrooms and one and three quarters baths, and a built in fire place. It was constructed in two pieces so it was easily moved to its new location. John Travis, construction instructor said, “We sold the house to the highest bidder.” (The highest bid was not known as the Bronc yearbook went to press) Like other carpenters, Travis said, “We don’t tell people how much the house costs to build.” The extra money that is made from the house goes into a fund for the next house that the next year's students will build. The Career Center is open to all three high schools, Senior High, West High, and Central Catholic High. The total enroll- ment at the Career Center is 1,200 and 700 of these students are bussed daily from Senior High. Fifteen subjects are offered at the Career Center including child services, broadcasting, electronics, fabrics classes, and Construction I and II. YOUNG CONSTRUCTION WORKERS, busy building their first house, monitored progress with great interest. Built at the Center in- stead of on site, the house was sold to the highest bidder and moved to a permanent lot.

But for Renee Moore, it was a natural. Her friendly smile and her quiet manner made her a natural leader, her classmates agreed. And in February, at the conclu- sion of her semester as battalion com- mander, they crowned Moore NJROTC Sweetheart. The annual ROTC was staged at the Sheraton Hotel and sponsored by Senior High cadets who alternate the responsibli- ty with the West High unit. Sweetheart coronation is the highlight of the dance Moore was selected from ix candidates. During the three rs of Naval Science, ROTC o a lot more than march in tr after school. Cadets are schc ristory of the Navy, past wa astronomy and electricity plus other essentials of becoming a Naval Cadet. Out of school, the ROTC students presented the colors at all games and per- formed occasionally for half-times. The rifle teams compteted in Big Timber and the unit practiced nearly daily for routine inspections. In September the cadets attended a boot camp in Big Timber. “The main pur- pose of that trip was to teach the new cadets how to march,” said Linda Kor- wald, senior cadet. But it wasn’t all mar- ching and no play; the cadets enjoyed free time and a dance while at boot camp. Annual highlight for the cadets is a trip to a Naval Base. This year the group went to Pensacola, Florida, to tour schools, view ships and planes and tour in Lex- ington and Alabama. “It was a great time,” Moore said. “We met a drill instructor who gave us many pointers and put us through an obstacle course.” In their free time, they went to the beach, attended movies, and went sight seeing. Company commanders for the year were Phil Foster and Holly Stoddard whose duties were to run the unit smoothly and prepare for the three in- spections. Moore was commander of both Senior and West Highs’ units for the first semester. Julie Mayfield, yearbook staffer who interviewed the cadets and Captain Kiehl, remarked, “I never knew it was so involv- ed. They learn a lot and have some great experiences.” MILITARY TOUCH to a local Veterns’ Day parade was provided by NJROTC students who marched at Worden. Keeping in cadence are with the drummer are (FRONT ROW) Chris Olson, Linda Korwald, and Phil Foster.

SOME ARE SAD to be leaving the NavaJ Base in Pensacola, Florida, while others smile at the prospect of returning home. ROTC students enjoy a break In academic routine each spring when they visit a base to complete their three years of Naval studies. Knock 31 A growing experience A greater appreciation for America was instilled in nearly all of the American Field Service students. They realized how much friends and loving families really mean to them. ‘T have a great deal more appreciation for what I have. I loved the Honduran people and my outlook on life in general has changed and improved,” said Kody Partridge. AFS began as the American Field Ser- vice during World War I and II when American volunteers served as ambulance drivers. As with Senior’s AFSers, the am- bulance drivers considered their ex- perience and personal contact with peoples of other nations so valuable that they wanted to create a continuing pro- gram to improve international understanding. Students in the United States can now choose from four Americans abroad pro- grams. Students interested in spending a summer in one of the 59 AFS countries can apply for the Summer Program. AFS also offers the Language Study Program along with summer homestay. Two year long programs are also of- fered. The School Program Summer Departure gives students an opportunity to spend a school year living with a family and attending school. The second year long program allows students to spend a full year abroad and gives them the option of being away for the second semester of their junior year and the first semester of their senior year. School Program Winter Departure students leave between January and March. There is also the USA Program which allows students to spend the second semester of their junior year in another American city. Approximately a dozen junior students are selected from Senior each fall for the various programs. Delegates must have attained a B average during their high school career, be in good health, have at least one year of a foreign language, and have a desire to travel abroad. During the 83-84 year, Senior sent 12 students on AFS tours. All returned for their senior year or for the second semester except Liz Thompson, who spent her senior year in Portugual. Todd Wester, who spent his summer in Costa Rica, said of his trip, ‘T learned in two months what would take five years to explain. AFS can really change people.” I While in Hiroshima, Japan, Traci Albright stayed with the Suziki family. “I was very fortunate to stay with such : wonderful people.” said Albright, ‘T was treated as another family member.” Senior High was fortunate to have three } foreign students during the 83-84 school year. Beate Lochhaas from West Ger- many spent her year with the Bell Le- ingang family, Deana Ahmed Abdel Moneim from Cairo, Egypt, stayed with the John Hamby family, and Mike O’Donnell from New Zealand spent his year with the Heath Evans family. “Now that I’m here, m having the most fun I’ve had in my ire ITe,” said the 16-year-old Deana. e F: abys are so much like my real r ts � t it has been easy to adjust to h ” The American Fie!.’ finitely offers great opportunk si its with the desire to travel abr Mo- Jy does the AFSer gain a men?-, hie a. special experience but also a be ■ unde landing of people living in different countries throughout the world.

Kathy Schmalz, Julie Mayfield, Carol Ohnstad, Lisa Howell, Jackie Schanz, Carol Schroeder, and Kathy FitzGerald took a break from the deadline rush when they noticed a photographer shooting pictures from the jour nalism office window on the last day of school. i I 34 Bronc Workshops spark new ideas One afternoon you might have glanced into room 206 and all you could see was best described as mass confusion. Your immediate thought might have been, “How does anything ever get done?” or ‘‘It looks as if they are having too much fun to accomplish anything.” As you can see the yearbook staff did it once again and another book is com- pleted. They did receive help from the pointers and ideas staff members brought back from various workshops. Kathy Schmalz, Jackie Schanz, and Michelle Zartman got a taste of college life last summer when they attended a week long workshop at the University of Minnesota Minr. olis. The girls went to individu or1 s from 9 a.m. until noon. Aft ! lv. - hour lunch break, they endec di t two hour produc- tion lab. £ nz, and Zartman received a warding them for their effor • P: lion lab.

The class learned the plant’s techniques and many special effects used in the book this year. The next step was starting to sell ads. Next to yearbook sales ads are the most reliable form of income. The class also put together the Midland Roundtable Tournament Program which added to the fund for the JEA Convention in Phoenix, Ariz. In mid April, five members of the year- book staff flew to Phoenix to compete in the national write-offs and attend workshops. Chris Grider received an Honorable Mention in yearbook photography for his photo of Jamie Alton on page one. Pam Gregg also received an Honorable Mention for her entry in year- book cover design. Michelle Zartman place second in yearbook layout and design of inside pages. Carol Ohnstad, who competed in theme page design and Jackie Schanz, copy and caption writing also attended the conference. Though it may look like all fun and games from the outside, the yearbook staff’s work carries on after school hours. The staff spent many nights putting on final touches and returned after senior week to complete the final deadline of the camera ready look. “What we do in class is exactly what is printed,” Zartman said, “This is a what you see is what you get book!” FINAL DETAILS yearbook staffel Mayfield, Lisa L Second-year staff____ section editor aiiqPPom pie tel section.

Davidson, who received second place last year in national competition for feature writing, was awarded the $300 journalism scholarship this year by a vote of the staff. It was a challenge. They accepted it, and accomplished it. For the second consecutive year, the Bronc Express Staff copped the Paceset- ter award naming the Express the besi high school newspaper in the state ol Montana. “We were determined to do it to show last year's staff who presented us the challenge,” said Jim Souza, co-editor. Last year the Express tied for first place with Missoula Seminal's newspaper, Konah. ‘‘Competition is tough,” Judy Cole, adviser, said. “The students are very com- petitive and are judged in the same divi- sions as athMic teams, AA, A, B, and C.” “We’re t! est a per in the state! We have interi i newsworthy stories and eye-cai '2 ■ uts,” exclaimed co- editor Frai ;C me, who was confi- dent the ch ould be met. “When I up last year’s papers to this year’s .tes. said co-editor Tami Davidson, see at we have improved on the wriiiug and in the layouts. Our feature topics also were more relative to everyone.” The Express is also entered in national competition, the results of which are an- nounced each fall. Last year BSHS paper received a First Class rating from the Na- tional Scholastic Press Association, and a First Place from Quill and Scroll Society. Erin Abbey, junior, and assistant editor, commented, “I don’t think the student body has any idea how much work goes into publishing the Express. We spend hours after school doing the layout and proofreading — many nights we are here until 10 p.m.” Attendance at “layout” was much im- proved this year and much of the credit, according to Cole, goes to the mothers of staffers who brought in dinner when students worked late. “It was great,” Souza said. “We got to taste every family's favorite food. Another added incentive to staffers is the annual Journalism Education Association national conference where students compete in write-offs and tour the host city. In April, 14 journalism students, both Express and Yearbook,’ flew to Phoenix, Arizona, for the three- day conference. Last summer Souza and Cori Pond at- tended a journalism workshop at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis. At the workshop Souza was cited for ex- cellence in production lab where students worked on assignments and planned im- provements for their school newspaper. “Every bit of information helps,” Souza said. “It obviously paid off.” TIME OUT for a tootsie roll, Jim Souza served as co-editor of the Express and led the group which spent long hours Monday and Tuesday evening before the Thursday publication dates. The Express published 14 issues during the 1983-84 school year. UN-EDITOR Todd Wester received his title because he did not enroll in the Bronc Express class but spent an equal number of hours after school working to make the newspaper top in the state. Wester comes from a newspaper family background and added technical know- ledge to the staff as well as a humorous sports column.

The only male candidate lost the primaries leaving two junior girls vying for the office of student body president. 38 B rone I I i i ! Is it Kermit the Frog? No, it’s Jamie Alton. Kermit keyed the campaign that led Jamie Alton to the StuCo presidency. He selected Kermit as his campaign manager because, “It’s a personal joke between my friends and me. They think I talk like Kermit the Frog,” Alton said. As a school president, Alton is following a family tradition. His father, Bruce is president of Rocky Mountian College. “I admire my dad more than anyone. He has been an inspiration in my life,” Alton said. The most controversial issue StuCo resolved first semester was the problem of a smoking area. The school board concluded that the school must set aside a designated place for students to smoke.

The Advocates con- ducted tours for sophomores the day before school officially began and presented an assembly for them the morn- ing of the first day of school. “That was fun,” Schanz commented. “We had the opportunity to meet many of the sophomores personally and it truly made us feel like upper classmen.” During the assembly the sophomores were introduced to all extra-curricular ac- tivities through a skit presented by the Advocates. Their parents were guests of the Advocates the next week when they toured the school and viewed displays set up by club members in the old gym. Gary Johnson, director of counseling, serves as adviser for the Advocates. Each semester, students with a three point average are invited to apply for ad- mission to National Honor Society. Students are selected on the basis of in- terest in school activities as well as academics. Each semester approximately 30 students are inducted into the Society by the executive board. Doing the initia- tion this year were Lisa Sukin, president; Brendan Hanley, vice president; and Tim Carlson, secretary. Linda Meyer, coun- selor, advises the group. While it is unusual for a senior to be in all four groups, Schanz felt it was worth it. “It was time consuming and I’m sure I slept less because I was in all four groups,” she said, “but I’d do it again -given another chance.” BOY’S STATE DELEGATES ARE Will Jenkins, Kurt Lehman, Darrell Kautz, Mike Steckel and Brendan Hanley.

Their motto was WHEN GOOD LUCK COMES, TAKE IT IN! I Ladies lead key club Top offices go to females Although only three short years ago Billings Key Club waw a “boys only” club, the Equal Rights Amendment took control of BKC as three of the four club’s officers were females, but the president’s and adviser’s positions were still controll- ed by males. “It didn’t bother me that three of the :lub’s officers were female. Most of the ime we just joked about it,” said John Graf, president of BKC. Seventy-two members raised money for the club to help the community and to celebrate at socials. Each member was re- quired to pay a $6 fee at the beginning of the year which covered all expenses. “Last year I was in BKC just because all of my friends were, but this year I believe that BKC was an accomplishment and something that I enjoyed,” com- mented vice president Jackie Schanz. Gary Branae has been the advisor of BKC for seven years. “This is a real neat bunch of kids and it is fun to work with them in another aspect instead of just in the classroom,” said Branae. Eight members went to a convention at Great Falls in April to elect district of- ficers for the coming year. Sophomore Adam Cox ran for lieutenant governor in District 4, but lost o the .Vest High can- didate. This year, BKC is verned by four officers.

Ap- proximately 12 new members were added to the two returning members.

The junior club of the Kiwanis Club was involved in many different activities at home and other parts of the state. To raise money for the state Key Club meeting in Great Falls, YKC designed and sold programs at the boys basketball and football games. Also, they put on the First dance of the year. With the money earned, they paid the way for 17 members to go to Great Falls for the state Key Club meeting on March 29-31. In Great Falls, the members of YKC went shopping, attended caucases, and completed a special service project. The members of all Key Clubs went door to door campaigning for donations for an unkown transplant patient. The total of the amount contributed by the Billings YKC was unkown because they left Great Falls before the collection was completed.

Blackley took over ad- visorship for Nancy Lay because Lay wanted a rest from the all-women service club. Z-Club is one of the largest and most active clubs in the school because “We en- joy working for our school and want to make Senior High an even better place to be,” Blackley said. Z-Clubs doughnut selling is becoming a real tradition. The weekly sales have been prospering since the club was organized in 1956. Michelle Zartman, president, said, “Doughnut selling is our most reliable money-maker.” Blackley commented, “I went one week without buying a doughnut, but that next week I bought two.” Money made by doughnut sales is donated to American Field Service. “All members of Z-Club participated in the AFS Follies, especially the clowns,” commented Blackley and president Zart- man. Every year AFS Follies is sponsored by the all-women service club. This year Z-Club members dressed as clowns to escort AFS student, introduce acts, and present an act. Other activities Z-Club organized were collecting for UNICEF, ushering for con- certs, and organizing for Twirp. Z-Club also does Mr. Preferred which is the royalty for Twirp. The girls tally the nominations and decorate for the dance. Having a little fun was also on the girls minds. They organized two socials for pizza at Happy Joe’s pizza parlor. “We had a real good time,” Zartman said, “and we rewarded ourselves for all the hard work.” PIZZA PARTIES were a favorite for DeEtte Vasques and Michelle Zartman.

Silent artists Quiet group reeps profits Seldom seen or heard around school, the Art and Clay Clubs come out of hiding twice a year to stage art sales which are anticipated by students as well as parents. Shortly before Christmas the clubs combine for a sale in the foyer of Senior High. Students purchase last-minute gifts and parents visit school to take advantage of quality art objects at affordable prices. The sales not only provide an oppor- tunity for the clubs to bolster their treasuries, but also give the students a chance to realize profits from their work. According to Nets Olson and Leo Olson, art instructors and club sponsors, 10 per- cent of the profits goes to the club with the student realizing 90 percent profit. “The clubs get kids involved in art even though they may not be enrolled in an art class for some reason or another,’ Nels Olson said. Profits of last year's sale took the club on a field trip and workshop in Big Timber. Art Club officers were Mike Hayashi, president; Hank Carter, vice president; and Kit Seaton, secretary.

Highlight of the year of the foreign language classes was the International Dinner when the BSHS caferteria was transformed to foreign dining room. For the evening the room was filled with a foreign atmosphere with aromas of French, German, Latin, and Spanish food. Everyone brought his favorite foreign dish for others to sample. Members of the foreign clubs entertain- ed at the dinner. No one could mistake the Latin members who dressed in white sheets, other wise known as togas, to pre- sent a humorous take off on Julius Ceasar entitled “Rinse the Blood off my Toga.” The play featured a private Roman Eye named Flavius Maximus, played by Ter- rill Bracken. Flavius was hired by Brutus, played by John Strahan to find out who murdered Julius Caesar. In the end the audience discovers that Julius Caesar was murdered by Brutus himself! ‘‘Yeh. I just made a speech over the body of Caesar.” Mark Anthony, played by Mark Kriskovich said, ‘‘Friends, Romans, and Countrymen, lend me your ears!” Ears!” Anthony said. More entertainment was provided by the Spanish club which sang a round call- ed “Fray Felipe” as everyone joined in. “The most fun part of the evening was when the German Band played folk songs” commented Julie Smith a Spanish Club member. “To join a language club at BSHS one doesn’t necessarily have to c n a language class,” Tom Fc aid. “However one should know ling about the club and want to get d.” SOUTH OF THE BORDER fashions are modeled by Dawn Lundhagen and Julie Beyer.

Financ- ing the travel of Senior High's exchange students is the main function of BSHS four language clubs. Although some stipulations were placed on fund raising projects this year, the clubs still donated approximately $1000 to the American Field Service Program. Many of the clu- s had flower sales, but were not !e v: as much money as they did cause they couldn’t sell flowe High or West High. Another aied that clubs can’t have ac aterfer with school time. French Club felt the brunt of the new rule put into effect just before their flower sale. “It’s cut our profits in half and has hurt our donation to AFS,” Suzy Kusel, French Club’s president, commented. “Without French Club’s donations, most of which is from the flower sale, and that of other clubs, AFS would have to rely solely upon the participants to pay.” Car washes, garage sales and bake sales also brought money to the club treasuries. German Club sold homemade German pretzels in the usual spot, in front of Robert Zupan’s office. French club’s garage sale at Suzy Kusel’s house brought in an extra $71. However, all the club’s money doesn’t go to the ATS program. Many of the clubs participate in such events as pizza parties, rollerskating, volleyball games, and of course the traditional banquet at the end of the year, Each club goes to a restuarant that serves the traditional food of their particular country. German Club also gives a German scholarship worth $200 to a active Ger- man Club member. This year it was presented to Diana Morrison, who is Ger- man Club’s president.

Casting aside the traditional bake sale and pie toss schemes, Drama Club livened up the rainy B-Day scene with their old-fashioned photography booth- “It seemed like the old-fashioned photos were popular at the time, so we decided it would be a good idea for our B-Day project. ” explained Gretchen Hager. Club members proceeded to gather costumes and make arrangements to have the pictures taken and developed. The idea turned out to be a hit with the B-Day crowd, and the Drama Club made a profit which will help pay the initiation fees of members who are eligible to par- ticipate in Thespians, an honorary society for those who have devoted a specified amount of time to drama. Also participating in this club are those the audience never sees, “Some of the people in the club haven’t acted at all, but they're really important Michelle Gwin, (MIDDLE ROW) Darrell Kautz, Kurt Lehman, Will Jenkins, Melanie Huribet, Gretchen Hager, Mardi Munson because they take care of the technical stuff, such as working the lights and building scenes.” stated Hager. Because play rehersal is so time con- suming, there isn’t much room to fit pizza parties and the other usual activities into this club’s schedule. “Everybody is so in- volved in different activities, it was hard to arrange and do all the things we would have liked to.” said Kurt Llewellyn, club president. The Drama Club will certainly have their work cut out for them! In addition to putting on the multi-act plays as they did this year, they intend to perform more single act productions. These student- directed dramas were revived after being discontinued during the 1981-82 school year, and were directed by seniors Gret- chen Hager, Devin Jensen, and Kurt Llewellyn.

Newcomer Grace Hayes coached three events: memorized public address, oral interpretation of literature, and oratory. In memorized public address the contestant memorizes a famous public address, then delivers and analyzes it. Oral interpretation of literature is an expressivee speech, and oratory is an address researched, written, and delivered by the student. Lab coached team debate, in which two people advocating a present system debate two others who argue there is no need for a change. Also overseen by the head coach was the informative ex- pository speech. Extemporaneous, impromptu, and Lincoln-Douglas Debate were all coached by A1 Wise. Both extemporaneous and impromptu required the contestant to deliver a speech on a subject that is unknown to him before the contest. The difference between the two lay in the amount of preparation permitted before the speech is given; extemporaneous allowed for 30 minutes, and impromptu for three. Lincoln-Douglas Debate is a persuasive argument based on the debate between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas. According to Wise, giving a speech is a major fear in America. “People need to learn to channel their nervousness for and not against themselves when they give a speech.0 FORENSICS MEMBERS are (BACK ROW) Peter Abby, Jim Souza, At Kalinauskaus, Syd Hannah, Dana Morrell, Chris Cook, John Gulick, (MIDDLE ROW) Kim Gugler, Devin Jensen, Johnna Hamby, Anne Kline, Jolynn Stecher, Graig Parker, Al Wise (coach) (FRONT ROW) Shawna Zenter, Colleen Stecher, Michelle Gehrhart, Erin Abby, Stacy Farmer, Dina Abdel Moneim (advisor) Chriss KJtterling, Brad Boyt, Kevin Hawkins, Mitch Browning, Shawn Donnelly, Dave Nielson, (FRONT ROW) Denis Pitman, Kurt Lehman, Gail Marcum, Mike Gilluly, Tanya Smith Good Luck 59 I I ft A bell-ringing year Adults bridge education gap study,” according to Katie Link, BSHS instructor selected to the committee to represent the Special Education Depart- ment. Born in the midst of the cheerleader- majorette controversy, the group also discussed the numer of credits required to graduate, made recommendations for the improvement of the two high schools and decided upon advanced placement classes for Billings high school students. “Billings has the lowest credit re- quirements in the sate,” said Leo Olson, Senior instructor and the Committee’s Fine Arts representative. The committee was comprised of teachers from both high schools, junior highs, parents, and a dean and a professor from Eastern Montana College, the pro- cess of making recommendations is a very slow process, according to Link. “With 25 people, we’ll probally never all agree,” Link said. Olson said, “I was purposely picked because they wanted a wide variety of people.” He feels that no such committee will be needed next year because they have acheived what they were set up to do. Colorful Boosters mark 10th year Splashes of orange and black on the “adults’ side of the gymnasium were those of the Booster Club, the oldest of the adult groups which promote Senior High. Booster Club members follow the teams to out-of-town games and promote attendance at home games. They sport orange and black booster jackets and pride themselves in school spirit. “Membership is open to anyone who likes the Bronc,” Kerry Wilde, the new president said, “whether or not they have children at Senior High.” Wilde assumed the presidency this spr- ing from Bill McBoyle who led the group for eight consecutive years. Although the Booster Club celebrates its tenth anniver- sary this year, ' has had only four presidents.

This spring the ut nounted a track record board in th gy lasium corridor in memeory of Ralph Moerer. The board lists all school and state track records set by Senior High athletes, since 1965 when Moerer began coaching. He retired in ‘83. Also donated to the school this year were the breakaway baskets in the new gym. But, athletes aren’t the only ones boosted by the group. The majorettes received $300 from the Boosters to pur- chase uniforms and the cheerleaders were given $100 for expenses at Divisional tournaments. 1984 was a year of controversies. Because of cooperation between several groups, nearly all issues were solved expe- diently. One of the arbitrating groups for the smoking issue was the Parent Ad- visory Board led by President Jim Steckel. “The Advisory Board was really a ‘brain child when it was started,” Steckel said. Approximately seven years ago James Rickard, when serving as assistant- principal of BSHS, initiated a parents’ group that would keep abreast of issues at school. The advisory board worked closely with the student council on the smoking issue and helped reach the decision to move smoking to the back of the building-{see page 101). “The board is mainly a two-way com- munication system,” says Steckel. Other issues of interest were curriculum, athletics and the use of drugs and alcohol. Guest speakers were also invited to ad- dress the issues. Parents often visit the school and dur- ing the past year the board toured the Career Center. Each year is concluded with a potluck dinner and installation of new officers, “of course, we also honor the outgoing board and with them luck,” said JoAnne Wessel. Advisory Board Secretary. Since the conception of the BSHS board, each school has initiated such a group. According to Steckel, the grade schools’ group aren’t known as advisory boards but function in the same manner. Wessel praised the effectiveness of the group and said, “I hope the board will continue for a long time.” 25 debate, advise With the new Superintendent of School Dirstrict No. 2 came new organizations to handle some of the controversial issues. Most active of the new groups was the Committee of 25.

The school originally bought the bell to celebrate victories at Broncs’ football and basketball games. Unfortunately, the small wooden cart on which the bell was mounted couldn’t withstand the burden of carrying the heavy bell back and forth between the school and Daylis Stadium. This, and the lack of winning seasons, put the bell into retirement. In 1984, however, the Senior class brought the old bell out ot the mothballs, repainted it, remounted it on a brace, and raised it up to the ceiling in the new gym to once again sound for victory at Senior High. Senior class president Darrel Kautz, who gives credit for the idea of restoring the bell to Senior High teacher Jim Lod- man, thinks his class made a smart move. “The old bell was just sitting around, and we wanted to bring it out where the whole school could once again enjoy it.” Kautz also added, “The whole project cost practically nothing,” making it economically wise also. The reinstatement of the bell was just in time for the surprisingly successful basketball season that saw the Broncs compile an 11-6 record. The bell rang many more times during the year, in- cluding once at the last assembly for the class who put it back in action. It is hoped that future classes will hear it toll many more times. School spirit: What FURRY CREATURE covering the face of Kristie Kilfoy is the Bronc mascot costume. Kilfoy, an alternate cheerleader, shared the mascot honors with Pep Club members Heidi Hermstad and Delauna Brown. 62 Bronc Pep Club is all about What is school spirit? School spirit is making sure the teams have a cake to eat after the game. School spirit is staging a pep rally in the old gym at 7:30 a.m. and serving doughnuts to the early risers who attend. School spirit is sponsoring the B-Day dance—collecting nominations for royal- ty, counting ballots and bringing the royal robes out of moth balls. Spirit is selecting the crown for the homecoming queen and making sure the king returns his. School spirit is staging a spirit week before the Senior-West game complete with a pep rally in Pioneer Park the eve of the game. School spirit is wearing a T-shirt with a emblem that says “Yes, I’m part of a small ou Hich tries to keep en- thusiasm up at Senior High.” School spirit is being at every game- with the cheerleaders, and the pep band and sometimes having to carry the load of spiriting the Broncs without the help of many other students. That, according to Pep Club’s small membership, is the definition of school spirit. The sweet touch of Pep Club was felt by a wider range of students and groups this year, according to the new sponsor, Georgie Josephson, English Resource in- structor. “We distributed more cakes than usual,” Josephson said, “And we tried to recognize more than just sports par- ticipants.” Actors and actresses, academic achievers, and speech participants often sported carnations, compliments of the Pep Club. Although the club operated with only 20 members, it was larger than in past years. Among the most enthusiastic members were Susan Davis, Bonnie Finch, Deluana Brown and Theresa Woodard. Brown and Heidi Hermstad wore the orange Bronc costume and serv- ed as mascot at sports events. Money for cakes, flowers, and dough- nuts is raised by selling spirit boosters. During lunch hours and during games the members sold foam hands, garters, pins, and various orange and black items. That is school spirit. PEP CLUB members are (FRONT ROW) Theresa Woodard, B.J. Frank, (SECOND ROW) Georgie Josephson, sponsor, Susan Davis, (THIRD ROW) Shaunda Zentner, Car- rie Reid, Leah Benson, Conrad Wear, Allen Rel, (FOURTH ROW) Shelia Woodard, Deluana Brown, Heidi Hermstad, Judy Bloss, and Syd Hannah. MAKING THE ROUNDS, the large, orange furry creature appeared at several special events including the sophomore orientation assembly spon- sored by Senior Advocates. Jim Schaal watches the mascot (Darrell Kautz) whisper pertinent information to Carolyn Geiger. Also participa ting in the assembly were Todd Wester, John Graf and Mike Steckel. EARLY MORNING RISERS gather in the old gym to cheer the Broncs to victory. Since a limited number of assemblies are scheduled each year. Pep Club served doughnuts to students who attended assemblies at 7:30 on the mornings of games. Good Luck 63 Spirit Clubs: Varsity Club supplies tropies It’s not the award but the feeling of a job well done that counts. This adage may sound nice, but all athletes would agree that it feels dam good to hold the winning trophy in their hands as proof of their hai d work and effort. At Senior High the Varsity Club is responsible for these good feelings. Varsity Club, with its small member- ship of twelve varsity letterman, or letter- persons since membership is mostly female, is responsible for buying awards and trophies which are given to Senior High’s outstanding athletes. To buy these awards Varsity Club runs concession stands at wrestling meets at Senior High and receives the proceeds from the pop machine in the boys locker room. They also held a jacket sale and sponsored Little Guy Wrestling. Vice president, Erika Drain would like to see the tradition of having a Varsity Club continued, and hopes the club will be a little more prosperous next year. Other officers are Sherri Achten, presi- dent; Lynn Dare, secretary; and Jim Kohles, club advisor. Active varsity club members included Darcy Jordan, Becky Brown, Tim Hawkins, Ann Adkins, Lori Wilcox, Kelly Glen, Trey Adkinsl and the officers. OUT OF UNIFORM, but leading the crowd cheers, Patrol members include Toby Ludwig, Bary Burton, Dale Nixdorf, Mark Matheis, Randy Wagner, Lance Sieler, Brian Escro, Barry Hauser, and Dave Ewin. Horn Patrol: Deep voices lead offbeat cheers Was there a Horn Patrol during the 1983-84 school year? Until the second bat- tle against West High at the Metra last year, many were beginning to wonder. But, as usual, the spirit boys came through with a casual stroll around the Metra area dressed fit to kill! With their sunglasses, dress shirts, and ties, one would have hardly recognized them as being the same group that was not so affectionately nicknamed boozers” and unruly punks” a year ago. Randy Wagner, Horn Patrol president, said, We did it for a change of pace. We 64 Bronc didn’t want people to think we are just a bunch of rowdy boozers.” The Patrols usual Senior-West game attire consisted of orange and black war paint and, or course, the orange jerseys with the sometimes crude, sometimes vulgar, but always worth a chuckle or two, sayings printed across the backs. Wagner feels the Horn Patrol may have seemed somewhat inactive because of the many times when they were asked to per- form on such short notice that they couldn’t get organized. Others felt the group was too large to really get a lot done. However, there was one assembly where the Horn Patrol made their presence known to at least three state tournament wrestlers. The Patrol chose a wrestler from each grade to give a good luck surprise. Little did Wade Ellis, Kelly Fish, and Scott Filius realize that their surprises would be whipped cream pies in their faces. Though the Horn Patrol seemed to have mellowed a bit, they still boosted school spirit when they made their grand en- trances at games and assemblies. '■-■9 High on spirit, low on participation SrrmT BACK and admiring the scenery is the Horn Patrol crowd. Mellow seemed to be the word to describe the ol’ HP at this pep assembly.

Six hundred and four student .‘leaned lockers, bid good-bye to teachers who led them through the academic rigors of education in the ‘80s, and fondly said farewell to high school friends. Underclassmen said, “They are the lucky ones!” but some seniors didn’t share this evaluation. They attributed their luck to their years at BSHS and most left with smiles on their faces and with tears in their eyes. Twelv eluded v largest ai.. THE LAST HURRAY! Show- ing their seniority by leading the competition cheers In numerous pep assemblies, the class of ‘84 congregated across the gym from lower classman.

Michelle Zartman manned the yearbook booth and Z-Club booth during the open house. Peter Aaby Dina Abdel Moneim Sherri Achten Trevor Adcock Jason Adkins Trey Adkins Christa Albin Traci Albright James Alton Sheldon Alweis Waking up in a cold sweat, Ken Petter- son was enraged and horrified at the thought that someone was taking over his position. In his deep sleep, the self- appointed Crest God dreamt that he came face to face with another Crest God who TOOTHPASTE FANATIC fights cavity creeps. With his locker loaded with Crest samples, Ken Petterson pro- claimed himself Crest God of 68 BroncS nl0r H,Bl1 was going to usurp his position. Ken became the Crest God th y rs ago at a church camp. It started c f : a joke due to his overuse of the toothpa.te, “Crest,” but soon turned into an olse- sion. Ken says he has about 200 followers state-wide, but this is only the beginning of his so called “empire.” His two right hand men, whom he calls High Priests, are constantly spreading the Crestian religion at both Senior High and West High. The only stipulation this religion has is the requirement of good oral hygiene. “I am the Oral Roberts of Crest,” states Ken. Like most people with unusual devotions, he encounters criticism “There will always be the ‘cavity creeps’ who think you’re totally off-the-wall.” The Crest God’s daily routine requires him to brush three times a day and use Crest between every class. He proudly ad- mits that 10-15 people a day come to his locker to use his toothpaste. Besides his daily routine, he goes to the dentist every three months. How did the Crest God pick his toothpaste? “Taste,” says Ken. “I do prefer the gel over the original paste, though.” Another determining factor was that Ken felt Crest was an all-American toothpaste because its tube is red, white, and blue. Ken also prefers the trial size tubes, so he can carry one around with him. Crest, thus, replaces gum and breath fresheners. Ken feels his devotion to Crest is an ex- pression of his individuality, rather than a phobia of cavities. His parents only com- ment on this is, “Well, that’s Ken.” The Crest God hasn’t any girl followers yet, but said, I’m always looking for a girl with a beautiful smile to be my Crest God- dess!” t Tina Ambrogini Pam Anderson Ross Anderson Jodi Antone Joi Antone Gonzalo Arana Karla Arana Christina Ard John Arellano Dale Argento Dora Arnold Michele Arstein Tracy Askin Karine Aure Kent Avens Wesley Bagley Shannon Baker Kevin Ball Patrick Barnhart Thomas Barnhart Tami Bartlett Kim Bateman Greg Baugus Gorina Beal Alicia Beatty 69 Lucky Bradley Bender Leah Benson Audra Bercier Jack Berg Clinton Berry Laura Beslanowitch Jodi Best Donald Black Karen Blevins Judith Bloss David Blue Lisa Boehnke Annette Bohl Edwin Bohle Larry Bohnen Jon Bonogofsky Dean Boucher Bruno Boyer Lisa Boyer Michelle Boyer Shawn Boylan Tara Bracy Jana Bradbury Wade Brazelton Jelauna Brown Kathy Brown Rebecca Brown Scott Brown Cheryl Buell Barry Bull Michelle Burgoyne Barry Burton Clayton Calton Marilyn Carlson Patricia Carlson Tim Carlson Kristine Carroll Jason Cates Todd Chakos Connie Chapman Pattie Charles Joyce Chestnut Carol Christensen Daniel Christiansen Petrea Christensen Richard Cid Daniel Clark Cindy Claver Jon Cleveland Kathy Clovis 71 Lucki I i David Coffey Desirae Connard Pamela Conner Cordell Conradsen Leanne Cooke Brad Corneliusen Shawn Cosgrove Kathrine Croy Danny Cuellar Jay D’Ewart Dana Dahl Clint Dahlquist Timothy Dalbec Drew Daniels Lynda Dare Tamra Davidson Teresa Davidson Bonnie Davis Jeff Davis Susan Davis Darah Degenhart Janet Deichl Heidi Dennison Mike Dey Lorenzo Diaz 72 Bronc Brenda Dickinson Donald Diehl Brian Dietrich Lei Dietz Dawn Dixon Travis Doyle Suzanne Dracon Erika Drain Colleen Drake Mike Drewry Some plod along unnoticed At Senior High, we had students with outstanding talents that range from athletics to academics, and we had a little bit of everything in between. We heard about these achievers frequently; from our parents, from our teachers, and from the local media. We admired their ability and their dedication, but we wondered about these people because we were so unlike them. We were the ordinary kids. Most of us never attended a conference for outstanding youth leaders, or were never chosen for the all-star team. We did things like work after school, and ski on weekends. We struggled through humanities, and competed for scholarships with kids who ac- ed calculus. For the most part, we were content; we finally figured out that a list of ac- complishments a mile long does not add to the appeal a person has, j ust as a com- paritively short list does not detract. So what does that future hold for the ordinary? Will they end up on skid row or in a cramped office somewhere do- ing work they hate? More than likely, the answer to this is yes. Yes, some of the ordinary will remain just that way, but they will probably be working with super-achievers of days gone by, people who could not or did not choose to stay in the “spotlight.“ Then again, some of them will hit their stride later on; they will find the place where they can do what brings them satisfaction, happiness, and maybe even noteriety. Time will tell. When the 10 year reunion for the class of ‘84 arrives there will un- doubtedly be some surprizes. As those who have already at- tended their 10 and 20 year reunions will readily report, the one voted most likely to succeed seldon does, while the class nerd” is well on the way to being a millionaire, j3 IjQgky I I I •j Lori Driscoll Fran DiCharme Shelley Dunckel Scott Dunker Tina Dunlap Mike Eaton Phoebe Ebach Julie Eckelman Genie Eckroth Patricia Eichenlaub Tammy Eike Rodney Ellis Lori Eminethr I la Emmett Trent Emmett Kimberly Engelhardt Glenna Erickson Brian Eskro Lynn Fairfull Craig Falk Anthony Ferguson Brent Ferreira Bonny Finch Karen Fisher Melissa Fisher 74 Bronc Tamara Fisher Kathryn FitzGerald David Flack Kathleen Fladland Ricky Florez Ky Focht Reid Folsom Brian Foos James Forseth Linnea Forseth Timothy Forslund Phillip Foste James Fox David Foyt Shannon Frank Renee Frasch George Fritz Philip Gackle Kerry1 Gallagher Steven Gallaway Steven Garza Robert Gasek Caroline Geiger Mike Giblin Terry Gieser 75 Lucky Scott Giesick Charles Gilg Mike Gilluly Kelly Glen Justin Glenney Corday Goddard David Gormley John Graf Gordon Graham Marie Grande Diana Greger Pam Gregg Chris Grider Steve Griffin Debbie Grove Lisa Grove Johnnon Grovom Suzanne Grunstead Robert Guzman Laurie Hagen Gretchen Hager Sam Hagerman Kelli Hahn Donald Haire Cindy Hall 76 Bronc 0 VP® Three teachers bridge the years FAMILIAR FACES of family members are found in yearbooks from years gone by.

Kathy shared the same high opinion of Nesbit. Elfrieda Idleman began teaching at Senior High in 1964. Her most unusual en- counter with the child of a former student occurred when a girl asked her if she remembered the gray sweat- shirt with the ric-rack and but- tons that her mother had made for her. Idleman recalled wearing the shirt in question while correcting papers at Rosebud High School, her first teaching assignment.” “It’s crazy how I taught kids at Rosebud and now I’m teaching their children at Senior,” said Idleman who has taught the second genera- tions from BSHS also.

NMSQT to participate in a unique summer program. Senior Jim Schaal was invited to apply for this scholarship, and was even further honored by being selected to participate in the program. Every summer since 1954, Telluride Association has awarded scholarships to a select group of high school juniors entitling them to at- tend the Telluride Association Summer Programs (TASPs). Each summer program revolves around the study and debate of a social or academic issue. These programs demand no less than the commitment of the students’entire summer. They take the form of a small seminar rather than a tradi- tional classroom situation. The chief objective is to stimulate genuine interest among the participants. Of the three program loca- tions, Schaal attended Deep Springs College, a private, all- male institution tucked away in the desert re on of Califor- nia. 41 All male was one of the major drawbacks!’9 Quipped Schaal. Deep springs is unique in that it is a largely self- sufficient cattle ranch and each student there holds £ designated job on which evei member of the communit depands. This work progran is an essential part of the Deep Springs Experience, but it is. “a little hard to get used to,’’ admitted Schaal.

Members of the class of ’84 will argue the issue. Expenses began to mount long before graduation. A sophomore or junior might have spent $80 to $300 on a class ring. But the real crusher came as the senior year approached. As early as the summer before their senior year, students began making appointments for their senior photos. With a sitting fee of $20 to $45 and a cost of $ 100 to $200 or more for the actual pictures, the total was enough to break any senior’s checkbook. This was where the expenses began. Though many seniors spent almost nothing on graduation, others went all out. To help them remember their senior year, publishing companies made available memory books, souvenir announcement covers, open house cards, miniature diplomas, appreciation gifts, and senior keys. one of these are exactly necessities.

Interviews with next year’s Seniors revealed anxieties mingled with excitement about facing the world on their own. But listed most often was the fear of losing friends. Val McKenna says, “Til probably miss the people because you go through three years of your life with these people and you’ve done it together.” Besides missing their friends, the upcoming seniors are go- ing to have a hard time leaving Senior High. Replied one junior, “I will miss many of the rewarding experiences that high school brings,” Celeste Eckhart said, “I’ll miss just seeing all the smiling faces. But I’ll miss everything though, because this school is just a great place to be.” Teachers and faculty also play a very important role in students every day school life. DeEtte Vasques said, “They are very concerned about the students, they make you feel better in a bad situation.” Even though some teachers do not seem to get into school ac- tivities or students lives, they do care about the students well-being and completion of high school, according to several juniors’ responses. The excitement of selecting pictures and announcements, caps and gowns during senior year, is combined with the anxieties of securing friend- ship ties that will last after high school.McKenna summed it up as “living it up before going into the real world.” Another gratification is know- ing that one has finally made it to the top and accomplished his goal. Even though some teachers do not seem to get into school ac- tivities or students lives, they do care about the students well-being and completion of high school, according to several juniors’ responses.

Were you one of those peo- ple who was always saying “I can’t find one.” Don't worry, you weren’t alone. Many students at BSHS were 1c king jobs; but out of 20' olle nly 85 landed work W’ die ■ find work? Most he ents went to the fa f row, Grand c er, some went fa.:h i earch of work. Se of the many fast food bus sses are moving or ex- panding to new stores on Cen- tral Avenue and Main Street in the Heights. McDonald’s now has four different restaurants in and Wendy’s has threw. Bigger tips were earned by the 17 percent of students who worked at sit-down restaurants where they did a variety of jobs. At a family restaurant, the students can wait on tables, bus and wash dishes. But at the restaurants where alcoholic beverages are served, students are allowed only to bus tables and wash dishes. Bag boys and carry outs rated third in most sought after jobs. Pam Gregg, an employee at Buttrey Osco, commented that about 15 students from BSHS worked there. Gregg worked in the camera department in Osco. She designed ads and said, “I do things for the fulltimers.” Gregg was paid $5.51 an hour. Fifty-one percent of the students were paid above minimum wage which was $3.35 an hour. Thirty percent were paid about minimum wage, and 17 percent below minimum. Many of the students, 61 percent, got their jobs from someone they knew. About 15 percent filled out applications, then waited for someone to call them for an interview. Only 10 percent of the students said they would like to make a career of their job. These were usually students who worked at their parents’, company. The students’ pay checks were spent on many things. Out of the 85 percent who worked, the money was spent on: going out with friends, 62 percent; clothing, 57 percent; movies, 49 percent; records and tapes, 44 percent; junk food, 38 percent; gas, 37 per- cent; lunches and car in- surance, 24 percent; and car payments, 18 percent. The amount of hours a stu- dent worked ranged anywhere from one to 40 hours per week. However, the most common was 16-20 hours. The most common reasons for working were, “it brings in extra money” or “it’s something to do.” But as Mar- shall Hewitt, sophomore, puts it, ‘‘Only the rich will survive.” When the students com- mented on why they don’t want a career in their job, a few replied, “I don’t want to be the thing between someone and their hamburger for the rest of my life,” and “I don’t dig cooking Big Macs.” For the rest of the 200 who didn’t work, some of the most common reasons why they didn’t were; “can’t find one,” “no time,” “I have no ambi- tion,” and “my parents don’t want me to,” Two other reasons were “I’m too in- secure for the changes that it would present.” and “because I feel that you will work for the rest of your life why rush it.” Probably the most truthful reason given was “Fm too lazy.” Jason Erhart Jenny Erickson Heath Evans Nancy Evans Pat Evanson Dave Ewen Alfred Falcon Stacy Farmer John Fames Chris Felton Mike Femling Jeff Fenwick Deanna Ferguson Brian Finch David Finch Scott Fink Kelly Fish Andrew Fisher Tom Fisher Bill Fitzgerald Lisa Fitzsimmons Tracey Flesness Greg Fletcher Wyatt Flory 97 Closeness Juantae Foltz Andrene Foote Eric Forseth James Forwood Betsy Foster Jam!

The junior student has appeared at the Grand Ole Opry and has cut several tapes. Singing her way to the top, Tami Chaparro seemed to be stepping in the right direction. Chaparro first began sing- ing when she was nine years old. Chaparro competed in various vocal contest and garnered a trophy and $100 for best female vocalist in a talent contest in which she competed against women older than herself. Chaparro’s biggest move toward success in her career was the honor of getting the chance to sing at the Grand Old Opry in 1983. Not only did she dazzle people while she sang at the Opry, but she made herself well known because of her talent right here at home. She has sung all over Montana and can be heard crooning on jukeboxes in a number of places in Billings. Chaparro has even made a commercial for Navasio’s, a Billings hamburger shop. Her record ‘‘You Win I Lose” reached number 70 on the Billboard Charts Top 100. Not bad for a junior at Senior High! Chaparro didn’t join any of the school singing groups, but is taking voice lessons. As for the future, Chaparro says, “After 1 get out of high school, Pd like to work on my singing career for a year and if things don’t work, I’ll go to college to study fine arts.” But judging from Chaparro’s past accomplishments, there doesn’t seem to be any doubt that Barbara Mandrell had better move over because Tami Chaparro is on her way to the top. 98 Bronc Lena Gomez Erik Goosen Russel] Graham Tennys Grubbs Mark Guenther Tony Guiles Christina Gutierrez Michele Gwin Jody Haider Rhoda Hailstone Mark Halden Jonna Hamby Kaye Hamby Virenda Hammond Debbie Hampton Robbie Haney Steph Hannah Mark Hanson Michelle Hanson Sherry Harrison June Hartman Alan Harveli Brad Harvey Bill Hasch Kim Hatfield Kevin Hawkins Becky Hawkins Bobbie Hawkins Tim Hawkins Donald Hayden Lisa Heberiein David Hector Dave Heiser Lorrie Helmbrecht Terry Helmts Brenda Hemming Leann Henman Randy Hennelly Paulette Henchel Robert Herbert Heidi Hermstad Paco Hernandez Peggy Hernandez Wes Herren Cynde Hert Susan Hert Keith Hice Heather Higginbotham Holly Hill Scott Hirschi Peggy Hoemer Percy Hoemer Lee Hoggatt Mike Holder Steve Holenn Todd Houk 99 Closeness Lisa Howell Jim Hudson Pal Hummel Shane Hummel Lisa Hunter Nora Huseby Erik Isum Chris Jam Cameron Javid Michelle Jencks Beth Jennings Cherise Jensen Chris Jensen Jodi Jensen Wayne Jewett Danny Jiles Ellery Johnson Mike Johnson Becky Jones Jeff Jones Russell Jordan Mike Jorgenson Jason Jourdan Troy Kale Al Kalinauskas Kristine Kallinen Adelle Kaufman David Kautsky Kautsman • Keller Bill Kenney Pal Kidd Kristy Kilfoy Kelly Killian Dawna Kimble Peggy Kirschenmann Kelly Kister Anne Kline Christy Kline Robert Kline Brad Kloberdanz Brian Kober Brenda Koch Ginger Koch Lome Koch Kristie Kohler Kathy Koffler Kurt Koffler June Kohler Kris Kooyer Carolyn Korb Dean Kottke Mark Kriskovich Jennsue Kuntz Shawn Kyle Mike Lachapelle 100 Bronc Jo Anna Lacy Cynthia Lakko Lee Lane Mike Lanzarotta Katie Laseur Liz Leavitt Stacia Lee Veronica Lee Craig Leeper Lisa Lekse Shelley Lennington Laurie Lennick Corrine Little Boy Kevin Lloyd Celeste Locke Anjeanette Loos Jenny Lopez Robert Lopez Scott Love Nicki Lucas Shelley Ludlam Dawn Lundhagen Michael Luther Dean Lythgoe Arthur Mack Todd Madel Michelle Magnuson Lisa Mangintini Tom Manthey Gail Marcum Matt Matson Jay Matteson Lori Mathews Jill Maurisak Catherine May Homework blues:Smeerntifai'fan u out' Free at last! Oops, forgot about algebra, English, chemistry, physics... The seemingly endless day is replaced only by the seemingly endless night. Yes, we’ve all faced it . . . the dreaded homework—and just when you thought it was safe to go home. Lugging the books home became common place to most kids. And wouldn’t you know it? The heaviest and biggest ones were the ones which always accompanied you home— Algebra II, the old Themes Lit. book, geometry, chemistry, Human Biology. It never failed. But we never failed to put it off til the last minute, either. We’ve adopted the old ad- dage, “why do today what you can put off ’til tomorrow?” It made sense, or did it? To some it did. Commented senior Kathy FitzGerald, “1 think better under pressure.” Said Cheryl Cwalinski, “It’s not my favorite thing to do in the world. I’d rather sit around and watch television-dike “Automan.” While some are pro- tagonistic about it, others may have had the get-up-and-go it took to tackle the homework assignment head on. Said junior Korine Fujiwara, “If I feel inspired I just do it.” Added Scott Wyman, “I do a little each day before it’s due.” Inexplicably, noise aided in doing homework. Over the years we have become ac- customed to the background noise of TV and radio, making it impossible to study or think without it. Parents objected to the noise but few interfered with or pushed students to study. “I did my homework- because I wanted to pass,” Julie Smith said. “It’s im- possible to get good grades if you don’t study.” But one way or the other it got done. Well. . . um. . .most of the time. 101 Closeness learning experience to worry about these things now ’ Frank said, “but I have to do them all right now.” And if all these worries weren’t enough, Frank’s AFS family backed out at the last minute because of financial difficulties. At his departure, Frank still didn’t know if there would be another family at the airport to greet him when he arrived to Peru. Frank had a lot of mixed emotions about leaving. “I am nervous because I can’t take anyone with me,” Frank said, “I’m on my own.” But he feels that by being an AFSer, he will learn just how much he can handle on his own and thinks he will mature much more than if he stayed at BSHS for his entire junior and senior year. Even his last three months here were a learning ex- perience for Frank. “I hear lot more feelings from m— friends now that Feb. 12 ] coming closer,’’ said Fran “Everyone is excited for fP— but they also don’t want to me go.” Frank’s family didn’— talk much about his leaving— but they feel this is a good ex- perience for him, even though they’ll miss him. What was Frank’s overall feelings about his last three months before he left? “The months have gone too fast- here have been too many :o get done and my last ?ek is already here and no time left to do ng I’ve wanted to do.’ Le ng the security of his ■m. as difficult, but Frank cm to take it in stride with is usual ease and he was look- ing forward to his stay in Peru.

In October of 1983 the Billings Medical Ex- plorer Post was formed with the purpose of giving teenagers, both boys and girls, a chance to explore all the medical fields before they make a career choice. “I joined the Medical Ex- plorers Post to find out about more careers in the medical field and also I wanted to find out if a medical career was what I really want for the future,” said Jauntae Foltz. Meetings were held the first and third Wednesday of each month at Billings Deaconess Hospital and feature profes- sionals who speak with the members. Professionals tell the members about their jobs, what their jobs require of them, how long they have to go to college, how much money they could expect to make, and just what their job entails. The members then tour the particular field that was studied that night. Tours included the emergen- cy room with the advance life support system, the heart center, the pulminary center, special machinery including the CAT Scan, the laboratory, the X-ray room, biological medical and electrical equip- ment, the dialysis unit, and surgery at Deaconess. The post visited St. Vincents Hospital to tour the maternity and pediatrics floor. They also toured a dental clinic. Most of the members are in- terested in a medical field job and are getting a closer look at their areas of interest. Foltz is interested in becoming a pediatric nurse or obstetrics nurse. Moore and Peggy Hoerner have ambitions to work in the emergency room. Peggy Kirschemann wants to work in the pediatric intensive care unit. The post is open to both boys and girls of all three high schools: Billings Senior, Bill- ings West, and Billings Central Catholic. The post officers who at- tended Billings Senior were Laurie Helbrecht, junior, president and Linda Korwald, senior, secretary treasurer. The post’s founder is Chester McCarty, a registered nurse, at Billings Deaconess Hospital. According to Mc- Carty few people are in the medical profession for the money. “It’s good to know what you’re getting into,” Me- Cartv said. 105 Closeness Susan Sheard Dan Shelhamer Matt Sheridan Tim Shinabarger Tammy Shuler Sherri Silcox David Sitz Keith Skeers Roxanne Skinner Dawn Skredergard Daven Smith Jodi Smith Julie Smith Lisa Smith Tanya Smith Tina Smith Peter Solie Brenda Spaulding Paige Spaulding Brenda Specht Debbie Stanley Craig Stannebein Jolynn Stecher Stuart Steffanich Tammy Steiger Candy Steiner Kim Stevens Ricky Stewart Mary Stidham Michael Stilwell Joel Stott Pam Strozewski Mike Stuart Brent Sudduth Grant Sumsion High school anxieties Have you ever heard the phrase “Aw, Come on everybody does it,” or, “please let me borrow your math assignment. No one will know”? These are the magical words to the beginning of a pressured situation. Whether one is a sophomore, junior, senior, or even in junior high, there is pressure, a sometimes unbearable fact of life. Take, for instance, the average freshman. How many pressures can a freshman have? Well, there is always go- ing to be the pressure of one finishing his biology assign- ment but his buddy does not, so the finished one debates on giving his assignment away or not, knowing if he does not h 106 Bronc ___________________ will be made a social outcast. Then there are the pressures a sophomore feels being new to a high school. They are scared at first but, after a day or two everything starts to fall into easy living. Except, for Friday night when you, the driver of a family car, packed full of friends, want to go to the movies when everyone else wants to go to a kegger out in the boonies somewhere. Going to a kegger always means risks, wrecking the family car, getting into trouble with parents, and maybe even get- ting into trouble with the law. So what does one do? Even- tually become a junior. A junior has many different pressures than a sophomore. The second year of high school is the toughest academically. Students are faced with a seemingly endless assortment of tests: SAT, ACT, NMSQT. Because these tests are an im- portant factor in being ac- cepted to the college of one’s choice, there is much pressure to score high on them. In addi- tion, the stiffest course re- quirements are placed on juniors, leaving little time for entertainment. When the op- portunity for a little fun does arise one jumps at the chance. Sometimes the only thing sav- ing these juniors is the thought of becoming a senior and the prestige that goes with it. A senior, on the other hand, was supposed to have the life by the tail, but was taken by surprise with the multi pressures of leaving the securi- ty of high school and entering the wide world of reality. Stress also occurred when some thought that if one did not have a steady girl or boyfriend,? something was wrong with them. During the last three months comes the dreaded senioritis, caused by burn out and the lack of desire to succeed for even another month or two. It followed students from junior high to high school and, unfortunately, to the real world. We learned to live with it because it’s the psychological disease of the eighties.

Senior High—it occupies a city block and to some the thought of its vastness pro- vokes fear while others accept it as a challenge. Small town transferees refer to it as a mini-city, and even new teachers are in awe of its size. But, within a very short time, most students have found their niche-or their cor- ner. “It’s true. Certain groups establish headquarters in cer- tain corners,” observed the new hall moniter, Karen McMillan. Although classes and students come and go, the corners have remained the same over the years. McMillan once roamed the halls as a stu- dent and she claims it was very similar then. “Each corner had a label and everyone seem- ed to know who belonged there.” Rodeos and the price of levis are discussed in “cowboy corner” located in the north- east corner of second floor where large hallway windows overlook the practice field. Although most corners are predominately occupied by males, here a few girls join their boyfriends to discuss what most people think Mon- tana is all about, cowboys and rodeos. In years past, one, of the rowdiest corners, located just down the hall from “cowboy corner,” was known as “jock” or “stud corner.” Students can’t seem to settle on an appropriate name for this corner where boys sit on the window ledge and discuss nearly everyone who passes by. The smallest of the hangouts, probably because of JOCK CORNER was the favorite hang-out during lunch for Buzz Arrendondo, Stacey Ronquillo, its name, is “freak corner” on the main floor near the auditorium entrance where no more than a dozen students may be found on any given day. “ROTC corner” earned it Paco Hernandez, David Kautsky, Wade Ellis, Scott Filius, Larry McGrail, and Mike Scharosch. name because of the early morning crowd which gathers there. Very few people are seen in this corner during the lunch hours when the other areas are the most popular. Of course, its residents are members of NJROTC. 108 Bronc Tobacco Row Smokers to the rear, please Is Senior really going up in smoke? According to the ad- ministration and 59 percent of the students polled this year in the Student Council Smoking Survey, it is. There were many notewor- thy issues discussed in the first semester of Student Council (StuCo), but none that caused as much controversy as the issue concerning smoking in front of the school. At two Student Council meetings where the issue was discussed before the matter was in- troduced to the School Board, the concensus of the Student Council represenatives was to ask the smokers to move to the back of the school building to smoke. Other suggestions were to have the teachers patrol the area in front of the building or to give the issue some time in hopes that it might solve itself through peer pressure. Although the majority went along with the recommenda- tion to smoke only in the rear, some members of the faculty and many students felt that the whole issue was blown out of proportion. Jack Bonawitz, English instructor, expressed his opinion by saying, the whole issufc is stupid and asinine. “Whether a student smokes in front of the building or not has nothing to do with education or what I am teaching.” The School Board expressed concern as to the feasibility of eliminating smoking or designating smoking areas. After discussion by the School Board, the issue was taken out of Student Council’s hands and the decision was made by Dr, William Poston, the new superintendent of District Two. The rule that went into effect Jan. 4 stated “ The designated tobacco areas (smoking and chewing) will be only at the rear of Billings Senior High School.” As evidenced by the StuCo poll, Poston’s decision seemed to agree with the majority of the students polled. Ten per- cent of the students polled said that they smoked while 90 per- cent said they didn’t smoke. When asked if there should be designated smoking areas on school grounds, 69 percent replied that there should be. Sixty-nine percent were also in favor of banning smoking in front of the school. One stu- dent polled who was in favor of a designated smoking area responded in this way “If peo- ple are going to smoke what is so difficult about walking to the back of the building?” Although the majority of the students were in favor of banning smoking in front, 70 percent of the students polled felt that smoking should not be banned altogether. Most of the comments received by students were understandably, from the smokers. Many expressed anger in being singled out as the cause of the school’s bad image. One smoker said, “No one can tell me whether I can smoke or not. I don’t think there should be designated areas and I’ll smoke where I feel like smoking and so will a lot of other people.” Despite the debates over the new policy, it seemed that it will hold up. Jamie Alton, Student Body president, said, “1 hope in the long run that the entire debate will be worth all the trials and tribulations we (StuCo) have gone through and we will look better in the eye of the public.” 109 Closeness o N YOUR MARKS, get set, go!

Delaying their Sara Fenter. When 750 new students walked through the front doors of BSHS last August, they were amazed. Some of them hated coming to high school, some dreaded it, others anticipated it. But near- ly all learned to love Senior High. After attending smaller junior high schools, coming to BSHS made students feel they were in their own mini-city, but, in a short time, most felt they ‘belonged.” A new stu- dent said, “Senior is. not as bad as I had expected, and we didn’t get picked on like my friends had told me we would.” Many of the students who attended Castle Rock Junior High were disappointed by the interior of Senior High. A Heights student said. “I was surprised that Senior didn’t have air-conditioning or carpeting, and there were so many bodies at one time in one place.” Sophomores were in total amazement at the size of their new school and puzzlement set in when they tried to find their classes. None had attended a junior high with three floors. “When I asked directions to a class,” a sophomore said, “a senior gave me the wrong directions.

Some of the freedoms praised included be- ing able to leave for iunch, of- fering of more elective classes, being able to take study halls and being aides, plus a more relaxed dress code. “I feel much older and we all have more freedom than junior high offered us,” several agreed, “but a lot more responsibility too.” Aft er a three-month sum- me •■.oath. the first week of SClh va- real killer. “I was mi n- soaps,” several sar } da oms and fond me carefree days sun iin n the Rims or at Lai: Eli: prompted a soplu tore announce loud- ly at the end of the first day, “Only J86 days left!” Jacqueline Abbie Wayne Achten Ann Marie Adkins James Adolph Rebecca Adolph Tammy Albedyll Anna Alexander Carla Allen Daniel Allen Danny Allen Chesley Allred Jody Alweis Wendy Ambrogeni Debbie Amos Bekki Anderson Erica Anderson Mathew Andre Lorna Anderews Lori Angerer Jeff Arbizzani Alan Archer Jeffrey Averill Shivonne Austin Kirby Badura Julie Baker Tammy Ballerstein Michelle Barker Douglas Barnett 112 Bronc John Barry David Beaton Jason Becker Karen Becker Linda Beckman Ronda Beeler Sherry Beeler Johnny Bell Sandra Belton Lisa Beltran Christine Bender Audra Berg Jason Bernard Tonya Berndt Sheri Berzel Pamela Besel Tracy Beyer Lisa Bice Lome Birkle Dianne Bizek Stacey Bjomson Earl tsiackely Tammi Boe Toni Boe Kathleen Boehm Steven Bohne Shelle Boit Rosalyn Bomar Timothy Bourne Jerri Bowers Richard Boyd Raylynn Boylan Megan Brockett Tawnya Brothers Dawn Brough Lisa Brown Lynn Brown Patricia Brown Tim Brown Linda Brace Steve Branckhorst Jeanioe Bugoyne Randall Burlington William Burtchett Benjamin Bushybead Mike Cady Bryan Cardwell Kimberly Carey Alisa Carroll Debra Carter Hank Carter Ernie Casillas Benito Castro Robert Castro Tony Castro Paul Cayton 113 Starting i FAMILY RESEMBLANCES are not unfamiliar to the halls of Senior High.

Senior High, with 2000 students, boasts a diverse population and, adding to that diversity, is the abundance of families who are represented by two or more siblings. But Senior High is big enough for the entire family. Havin- a bro: er or sister at the 5 ;rae school isn’t the end of t wt according to Mic ' Z third oldest of v n to a school whe ■: been one of my or younger, goh with me,” she said. Shellie Kuntz enjoyed hav- ing her younger sister catch up with her. Cindy was a sophomore this year and, ac- cording to Shellie, “Seeing my little sister catch up with me gives me a chance to see some of the silly things 1 did when I was her age.” School gossip doesn’t end with the school day for these family groups. Jim Mullowney said “P.J. and I talk about the basics at home: girls, parties, and Friday nights.” Cindy said “We like to gossip-tell each other about our friends.” The Kuntz sisters broke the myth that siblings don’t get along. Shellie said, “We have small arguments but nothing major. Just a few minutes of the silent treatment and things are back to normal.” “Yes, Jenny and I fight at home and at school,” Michelle admitted. “I really get mad when she gets into my locker and take my keys. But, If I need money, I can always bor- row from her. There are several advantages to having her here. ” Sharing clothes is another plus the Kuntz girls cited. “It’s fun being able to wear each others clothes because it gives us a bigger variety to choose from each morning,” they both agreed. The Mullowney brothers, on the other hand, noted some disadvantages with closet shar- ing. Jim said “Sharing clothes isn’t bad, but clothes do get ruined.” What happens when siblings participate in the same club or sport? “We both played foot- ball and we enjoy the same sports,” Jim said. “Jenny and I are both in Z-Club but only because I made her join,” said Michelle, president of the girls service club. “If someone cancels out when we are ushering con- certs, Jenny is there to fill in.” Although some siblings fear walking in the shadows of their elders, Jim said about P.J., “I don’t walk in his shadow, but I guess I do walk in his footsteps.” Cindy claims she is not walking in the shadow or the footsteps of Shellie because “she gets good grades and I don’t.” Having a brother or sister at school doesn’t bother most of the Senior High siblings. “It certainly doesn’t bother me,” Shellie said, “Cindy and I are two separate people. I see Cindy not only as my sister but also as my best friend. I guess that helps our sister relation- ship a lot.” Although a sibling relation- ship is not all glamour, in the end it could be their pot oP gold.

The young athlete also started down hill snow skiing in Montana last winter. Windsurfing: Definitely not a Montana sport Wind surfing? What’s that? Many Montanans are puzzl- ed when this subject is men- tioned. But Tim Tobin knows exactly what windsurfing means. The sophomore transfer stu- dent lived for six years in Hawaii where he had learned to windsurf. “This sport is just one of things I miss about Hawaii,” said 16-year-old Tobin. “But since my father still lives in Hawaii, I’ll go back there every summer to enjoy sports like scuba diving and windsurfing. “I got started at the sport about three years ago when I got an $800 birthday present,” Tobin said. “I didn’t start try- ing this sport until about four months after the present arriv- ed. Basically, the gift is a 12-foot surfboard with a sail.” Besides a swimsuit, Tobin wears a harness that he hooks on to his sail to save strength. “Windsurfing is kind of like snow-skiing; it requires a lot of balance,” he said. “But it isn’t as dangerous as snow- skiing. In fact, the worst acci- dent 1 have had was when I got caught on a 15-foot wave and was thrown into the rocks and reef. It could have been serious, but luckily I came out of it with only a few broken toes.” Now attending Senior High, Tobin says “The public schools here are much better. There is too much racism against whites by the natives in H aii. However, some of the nr es re my friends, and ga ne a lot of tips for nc Ting. They also got n u rld contest racing, 11 c e best I have done is tl bin o swam for a swim cl ,n I .waii. When he came to nioi High, he decided to join the swim team. And he set a new school record in the 50-meter Breast Stroke. Swim- ming varsity, the water athlete compiled enough points from placing in various events to win the “High-point award” at the end of the season. For now Tobin says he will try to enjoy Montana, but some day wants to return to Hawaii and racing and maybe even turn pro. 116 Bronc Mike Ellis Tresa Enberg Cynthia Erickson Robert Eschenbacher Yvette Espinoza Michael Eubank Leslie Evenson Leigh Everson Susan Ewen Christian Fahnlander Jennifer Felten RacheLle Felton Paul Fenter Sara Fenter Steve Ferencki Gary Ferree Angie Fiedler Francis Field Scott Filius John Fillner Ronald Finch Michelle Fischer Kelly Fiscus James Fisher Katrina Fisher Randy Fisher Scott Folsom Pamela Forrester Joseph Forsch Robert Fox Ronda Fox Barry Frank Billie Frank Eugene Frank Kelly Frankel Annette Fredrickson Kristine Fritz Konrich Fuhrman Helen Funk Angie Furman Michelle Gallagher Janet Garcia Charles Garrett Valerie Gates Michelle Gearheart Kevin Geffre Lanny Gibson Sandra Giesick Margaret Gilluly Georganna Glen Anissa Goddard Angie Gordon Jennifer Graham Anita Gramley Boone Gran John Grawunder 117 Starting Shane Greif Larry Guess ftimberly Gugler Shannon Grimsley John Gulick Albert Gunsch Timothy Gustin Delia Haggerty Michelle Haire Tammy Hailing Robert Hammeren Susan Hammond Devin Hanley Bradley Hanson Becky Hanson Becky Hanson Christy Hanson Tina Harke Leanne Harmon Suzi Harms Brian Harper Michelle Harper Troy Harper Scott Harris Stacie Harris Carlene Haupt Robert Hayes Wes Hazen Twirler trades baton for pom-poms Why would a prize-winning twirler trade her baton for cheerleading pom-poms? “I needed a change,” said Lisa Sindelar. “I was really burned out on twirling.” The fifteen-year-old sophomore began baton lessons under the guidance of her sister, Jurette Sindelar, at age eight and first competed when she was ten. “I was in the Miss Sweetheart pageant in Billings and won the crown. I thought it was so great, I decided to go twirling. Three years later Lisa won the same crown a second time. At age 13 she traveled to Hawaii for the Miss Majorette America contest and placed first in twirling and fourth runner-up as Miss Majorette. “This victory encouraged me to go on to the nationals at Notre Dame where I also took first place,” she said. But the charm wore off and winning became a old hat to Lisa. The Shepherd resident 118 Bronc__________________ enrolled in Lincoln Junior High as a ninth grader and came to Senior High this year. “1 have to pay to attend here at Senior High,” she said, but feels it’s worth it. “I never cheered in junior high and, as I said, 1 wanted a change,” so Lisa tried out for cheerleading. She wanted to join other activities also and decided to attend Senior High to participate in those ac- tivities. Lisa said she enjoys cheer- ing for the Colts and Broncs and she intends to tryout for cheerleading in 1984-85 season. Lisa has successfully transferred her number one talent to cheering, according to cheerleading sponsor Katie Link. “Lisa is a number one in everything she tries,” Link said. Will Lisa ever twirl for Senior High?

As I was walking down the hall one morning, I glanced up to see a small framed girl, at- tractively dressed, with an armload of books. She looked exactly like a little school girl — bobby socks to boot! As I passed by her, she opened her locker and garnishing the bent up door was a Playgirl center- fold. Well, I don’t have to tell you how surprised I was! Walking on I began to notice more, things that have pro- bably been there before, that 1 was unaware of. The locker has undoubtably become the students’ release on life. Their inner self shines through on the aluminum doors. Now I am not saying that the students who do not decorate their lockers were stupid, dull, and generally bored with life, themselves and others. I am saying that maybe these kids were just too darn busy to be worried about who or what should adorn their lockers. The other 90 percent of the student body was decorating, boy, were they decorating! In some 1 saw pictures of nude men, nude women, Ferrari’s, and shrines to great per- formers like Michael Jackson, Tom Cruise and John Stamos. Underneath all that, some were wallpapered with hearts and stars, modern checker- board or the comics. And of course, there was always the traditional cork, with rows and rows and still more rows of Senior pictures, candid pic- tures, and even some candid senior pictures. Of course this fad, like most all activities, was not limited to just seniors. As soon as I entered Senior High it was an all out search for something to brighten my locker. It wasn’t tough, as you remember; anything went by the looks of things. Still others had this urge to brighten more than the inside, they proceeded to the walls above the lockers, on the front of lockers, and even the stalls in the restrooms. On the walls were names of their idols like “Prince” or “the Crest God lives.” But most of the grafitti is unmentionable. I am using the term “grafitti” loosely. For I am sure that the teachers think it is, but the students don’t! In fact someone named Cathy in 1956 wrote a small, sweet message to her boyfriend in my locker. I don’t have to tell you what it was-it just the three little words. Someone once said, “say it with flowers!” Well, she said it with steel. Touching, I thought. Elaborate decorating of the lockers was a tradition, at least in 1984. However, the decorating of walls and stalls is a long standing tradition. Unfortunately the lockers are not put on display, but opened only to six more times a day. Maybe the school board should put in plexi-glass doors and student’s art display in one private area. 121 Starting Shawn McDanel Timothy McCinnis Robbie McLean Scott Meader Marlene Mehlhaff Doug Melius Kent Mende Kurt Mende Richard Mercer Kimberiy Mettler Wendy Metzker Rene' Michaels Donnette Mill Tom Millard David Miller Melony Miller Todd Miller Shelly Mion Jeff Misch Trevor Mitchell Jamie Mills Lynette Mocabee Tamie Moltzan Cynthia Monteau David Montosa Angela Moody James Moon Kelly Moore Patrick Moore Cindy Morgan Todd Morgan April Morin Dana Morrell Tonja Morris Heidi Moser Chris Mota Kelsey Mueller Jim Mullowney Mardee Munson Angela Murphree Lisa Murphy Lynn Murphy Danny Myers Diana Myers Medora Nanoff Monica Nason Vincent Natzel Aladreth Nelson John Nelson Hiep Nguyen Mike Nicholson Shelly Nitchman Alex Nixon Butch Nolan Christopher Nava Howard Nuernberger 122 Bronc Michael O’Brien Bryan Oakley James Oberg Jerald Ochsner Paula Odegard Joyce Odonneil Frea ime: a rc Irag for ed teens Time on t i -some have it and so.... doi ' . More than 50 percent of students polled said they all have plenty of sparetime that they spend at home during the week watching T.V. or sleep- ing. On the weekends students go to Rimrock Mall, go to par- ties, or just simply drive around until they find something to do. “This town can be a real drag; there’s nothing to do in this town anymore,” a sophomore said. For the past year or two the community has talked about putting together a place for teenagers to “hang out and have some fun,” but to date no center has been built. One student said, “They need to get some kind of ac- tivities for us students to do in this town, like more arcades, or just some place for all of us to hang out.” The Prairie, a teen dance hall opened again last February, but usually is just a summer place. Tuesday night is the only night it is open for teenagers, and “many of us students can’t go on nights because our parents won’t let us go,” several commented. A popular hangout for the students was McDonalds and Taco Bell. One student said, “Well for one thing we hangout there to find out where all the parties are and if you are looking for someone that is the best place to find them.” Security police hired by McDonalds and Taco Bell control the crowds and at- tempt to discourage loitering. However several students said that when police asked them to leave, they simply “drove around for a half an hour and came back.” What about going to movies on weekends? “I go to about one movie a month because they cost so much and if you want to go to the good movies they are either Rated R and we can’t get in (unless we are 17 or older) or we have to pay adult Drice.” “The movies we are able to see are the Walt Disneys or some cartoon sort. We can’t take our girlfriends to some cartoon feature.” said one sophomore boy. But the other 50 percent of the students polled don’t have much sparetime. One student said, “Sometimes I wish that I was one of the 50 percent who had a lot of sparetime, all 1 seem to do is work and I only get one night out of the weekend to go out!” Having time on their hands seems to be a teen problem. Those who have it do not know what to do with it. And those who do not have it, crave it.

Oh no, not more credits! According to the school board, incoming sophomores of the 1983-84 school year are required to accumulate 18 credits in order to graduate. In the 1982-83 school year, sophomores only needed 17 credits to be graduated in their senior year. In junior high, a total of five credits were earned. In -high school, an additional 13, not 12 credits must be tallied. The reason for the credit hike was to “upgrade the stan- dards of the graduating seniors in 1986,” said Gary Johnson, counselor at Senior High. “Senior High has the lowest minimum credit requirement for high schools in the state of Montana,” said Johnson. “By the 1987 or 1988 school year, there is a good chance that the minumum credits a senior must have to graduate will be 20 or even 22.” The extra sophomore credits were split into two half credit areas. One half credits was ad- ded to physical education and health, and the other one half credit will be accumulated by B classes such as art, band and mealtime. According to Johnson, the graduating credit requirements could be raised by one half credit to two credits in social studies, science, history, and math in the 1985-86 and 1986-87. Seniors felt indifference toward the credit change. Those who had more than enough credits already, shared the same opinion. “It doesn't make any difference to me,” one senior said. “I have twenty-two credits already, and it’s only second quarter.” Almost all of the seniors who were questioned had more than enough credits needed to graduate. Sophomores, like seniors, were apathetic toward the credit change. One sophomore said, “It really doesn’t make any difference. We’ll get the credits that we need with no big hassle. It’s no big deal.” Kerne Russell Raul Sanchez Carrie Sanders James Sanders Heidi Sanderson Steven Sannon Jeanette Sauter Michael Sauther Julie Schaak Michael Schaible Jeffrey Schauer Herman Scheck Syl Schied Brenda Schimetz Jay Schlabs Ronda Schleip Mike Schlosser Brian Schmidt Deborah Schonenberger Kimberley Schopfer Gary Schroeder 125 Starting Jackie Schroeder Michael Schmm Dana Schulte Richard Schultz Shawn Schuman Elizabeth Schwehr Jon Scott Robin Scott Paige Seblad Anita Seeley Brian Seney Sonnl Senger Tonya Sessions David Sevareid Evelyn Shears Sheri Shimamoto Kenny Shrader Joel Sills Morgan Sims Lisa Sindelar Eric Skredergard Mary Smetanka Darin Smith Robert Smith 126 Bronc FRENCH FRIENDS OF Wendy Giselle (BACK ROW), and Curry (CENTER) are Marianne, Agathe Bardin (FRONT ROW). Sophomore finds sister in France With her luggage in hand, a lump in her throat, and her heart beating a million miles a minute, Wendy Curry boarded an airplane that would take her on one of the most exciting experiences of her life. Early in 1983 Wendy became interested in a foreign exchange program sponsored by the United States, France and Germany. In order to enter the program, she had to have at least two years of the language of the country she wished to visit. In junior high, Wendy had two years French, so she selected France. The 15-year-old sophomore was very hesitant about the decision. The previous sum- mer she had invited an ex- change student to come to the U.S. to stay with her. “It was the worst four weeks of the summer,” Wen- dy said. “We fought day and night for 27 days. I never thought I would ever be in- volved in an exchange pro- gram again.” And though this experience was fresh in her memory, Wendy decided to go to France. With the help of her parents, she scraped up the $1,150 and made the ar- rangements. She was told that the family of Agathe Bardin in Avignon France, had requested that she stay with thdm. Wendy’s biographical information was given to the Bardins, but the only information Wendy received was the name of the family and a picture of her room, which would be hers for the summer. On June 30, she boarded an airplane which took her to New York. From there Wendy flew to Lyon, France, where she boarded a bus to Avignon where the Bardins met her atdestination. Wendy discovered her luggage, having been left in New York, arrived in Avignon eight days later. Unl ’.e her foreign exchange sister ’he previous summer, Wen an1 Agathe became good ic immediately.

During the following year, Wendy and Agathe wrote con- stantly to each other. Through the same exchange program, Agathe and Wendy made plans for Agathe to come to the States the following sum- mer. “It will be really great to see Agathe again. Foreign ex- change is a great program. I learned a lot!” Wendy said.

One says what they do is called “popping, locking, or pop-locking.” Another says it’s called the “break-down.” Other names were “breaking” and “tisento.” Unable to agree on a name for their dance are the five boys who began dancing together a a group at the beginning the year. They are Riel- Morris, junior; Rob r Hernandez, soph e; Mark Halden, junij Pete Visarraga, sop! v're; and Mike Smith, seni M :s has been dancing abou a tt. He learned how to d. ic: n ihe streets of California torris watched other danc nd perfected it by practicin'.. alone. He enjoys this dance mainly because it makes him popular and “it attracts the girls.” Hernandez likes to dance because “you need a lot of coordination to do it, and it’s fun.” Hernandez, who has been dancing for a year, learn- ed the steps from his friends and from watching television. Hernandez plans to continue dancing, but wouldn’t like to teach it. However, he said, “if someone asked me to teach, I would.” Halden learned how to dance from Anthony Romero, a former member of the group who moved out of town. He has been dancing since last fall. Halden dances like this because nobody else does it around school but “The Group,” and it’s fun. Visarraga also has been dan- cing since the beginning of the school year and learned how from Romero and Smith. Visarraga says he has never thought of teaching anyone else how to do it, but will teach others “as soon as I get better.” Visarraga thinks “it looks good” to dance with the group. He also enjoys dancing because “it is interesting.” Smith says he is “more or less” the leader of the nameless group. He and his younger brother started the group. The others “just join in.” Smith taught himself how to dance in grade school. He likes this type of dance because you need a lot of coor- dination and “you get enough excercise.” The nameless group is most commonly known as the “The Dancers” or “The Jammers.” The boys “clashed,” as Mor- ris puts it meaning they click- ed. They’ve only been dancing together since the beginning of the school year. When they practice together, it’s usually on the bandstand at South Park, or at Smith’s house. In October the school ad- ministration outlawed “ghetto blasters” or “boxes” in the halls. Thus the group had no music to dance to. Most of the boys feel the administration really has no right to complain about their dancing in the halls before the bell rang and not disturbing any classes before school. But nothing they, (the administration), say bothers Hernandez because “most people like it and that’s what counts.” Halden thinks it was fun while it lasted. “Their (the ad- ministration), ears are too sen- sitive, Maybe they just didn’t like the music or us,” says Visarrage. Smith doesn’t mind the complaints because it’s the school rules, but says “1 wish we could keep it up.” The group hopes they can dance again for the school. They all plan to accept danc- ing jobs and to continue to do it for fun. THEY’VE GOT THE BEAT, Pete Visarraga-, Mike Smith, Mark Halden, and Anthony Romero are showing the school their “stuff” at one of the first pep assemblies.

They performed their routines to the songs “Beat It”, “Roman Opener”, and “Peter Gun”. Majorettes begin practice at 6:20 every weekday morning and practice until 7:30 a.m. They are then allowed to makeup for the early practice hour by having the op- tion to leave at 2 p.m. instead of 3 p.m. This can make a very long day for some, especially if the person has afterschool ac- tivities or a job. Vicki Wetzsteon, a junior came at 6:20 a.m. and had gymnastics afterschool until 6 p.m. She spent a twelve hour day at Senior High! The proposed idea was make majoret- tes practive early morning or afterschool without receiving credit. The practice time Johnson the new majorette sponsor.

Five male teachers dressed in togas, enter the gym to the beat of “Here Comes the King,” march around an object in the middle of the gym floor with their jugs of water in their hands. Each time the music stops they take a drink of water and spit on the object. The brave souls involved in the Gree- cian Water Rite were Mike Jablin, Bob Burris, Dean Bladow, Tom Feeley, and Charles Sucharda. The teachers’ Horn Patrol was a new addition to the assembly. They tried to immitate the student horn patrol by wear- ing borrowed football jerseys from Tom Hauck and making up their own names for the back of the jerseys. Twenty-four teachers were involved in the Horn Patrol. One member of the faculty Horn Patrol, Katie Link, commented, “It showed school spirit among the faculty. If the teachers don’t have spirit, neither will the students.” The annual assembly gives the teachers the chance to express other talents besides the ability to teach. They proved that they do have a sense of humor. IT’S TIME to pass the hat. Nancy Lay gives an unconcerned glance at the hat that just won’t say on her head for her performance as Boy George.

March the mark Some may think it would be dreadful to arise in the wee hours of the morning to march five mornings a week before school even started. But to be a superior mar- ching band, that is what it takes. “There was nothing too unusual about this year; it was a regular athletic year for the marching band,” commented Gary Tangen, the band's director. This is the first year that the band mar- ched all Corp style. “Corp style is more military, and uses definite straight lines,” stated Joanna Schilling, a member of the marching band. “You use the yard lines as markers so it was easier to remember what to do,” Dan Salacinski said. “This has been the best marching band here at Senior yet, Tangen said. I was pleased with all the kids' performances. There were more outstanding members than ever before,” he added. “The Seniors' had a good attitude this year,” Dan said. “They were more outgoing, but everyone stayed within the limits.” Tangen felt it was definitely a lucky year for the marching band, and they demonstrated the talent and spirit of Senior High.

Each year Gary Tangen, Jcftz Ensemble director, selects approximately 20 students from BSHS music groups to form the Ensemble. Rehear- sals are not during school hours and students have to be willing to spend extra time with the Ensemble.

As a special service to the junior high choruses, the band played background music for “From Sea to Shin- ing Sea” when they performed at Chorus Festival. State Festival Raters State festival does not rate school musical groups in com- petition but rather judges each group individually. Senior High in recent years has done well in state festival with most groups receiving superior, or one, ratings. Other groups which received superior ratings were as follows: the Percussion Ensemble, Saxophone Quartet, Chamber Orchestra, Vivaldi Violin Quartet, Mozart Trio, Varsity Mixed Ensemble, Varsity Madrigal Singers, Ladies of the Court, Expressions, Chantrelle Ensemble number one, Royal Court, Accents, Varisty Chamber Singers, Girls Triple Trio, Accents Madrigal Ensemble and the Nor- thwesters Quartet. Several individuals earned equally high marks in their respective categories. Under the category of woodwind solos, two Senior High seniors achieved superior ratings. They were Sam Hagerman and JoJean Lyford. Jennifer Traeger was the single flute soloist to receive a superior rating. Cathy May and James Alton both acheived superior ratings within the category of brass solos. In the woodwind section, which includes orchestra, Beth Stief, Michelle Deigert, Korine Fujiwara, Ted Smoot, and Amy Kenney earned ones. The category for aspiring pianists yielded two. The two superior solosits were Scott Perey and Korine Fujiwara. Vocal solos and ensembles was Senior’s most productive category. It produced fifteen superiors and several more twos. Those outstanding in- dividuals who performed up to the judges’ high standards in- clude Heidi Sather, who achieved superiors in two separate categories; Kaye Hamby, Steve Lirtde, Keith Evans, and Mark Hanson.

It was another superior year for Senior’s top band. Symphonic Band. The band is made up of Senior’s musicians who had to audition for membership. The band had a full year and improved along the way. As Paige Peterson put it, they “became an all or nothing band.” She gave credit to leadership of president.Kirk Woosely and director Gary Tangen. As a whole and as individuals, the band stayed busy and accomplished much, Tangen said. Throughout the year, they also played in the marching band. At the state and district festivals, the Symphonic Band received superior ratings. Twelve members were also chosen to play in the All-State Band which, according to the director, is a high honor to achieve. In- dividuals selected had to submit a recor- ding to be judged. An even higher honor was bestowed on Jennifer Traeger and Jamie Alton. They were chosen to play in the All-Northwest Band in Seattle, Washington. Members agreed that the high point of the year was their trip to Calgary where they played in a music festival with primarily Candadian bands. Though it could not go on further in competition, the band did receive a superior ratings. For Symphonic Band members, the trip was a pleasure trip to pay off for all their hard work, but also gave them a chance to compete one last time. During the four days in Calgary, the group went to a laser show, shopping, and visited the Calgary Zoo. Since the hotel they were staying at was about four miles out of Calgary, most of the group spent spare time there. Fran Du Charme and three friends ventured out farther, and for her the best part was eating at an exquisite restarurant and going to the Calgary Tower and viewing the city. The band improved and accomplished a lot over the year. Fran Du Charme com- mented, “We improved as a band, but also got along like a huge family.

Kirk Woosley, Jamie Alton, Korine Furjiwara, and Elizabeth Steif were “leaders in the orchestra and outstand- ing musicians,” according to Stephen Payne, orchestra director. Woosley, although not a regular member of the or- chestra, played trombone and practiced with the members Wednesday after school. The senior contributed his musical ability to Dale Hallock and Dr. Robert Bailey, his private instructors. “There's a big difference,” Woosley said, “between band and orchestra music.” He began playing in orchestra in seventh grade. Woosley said that he did not plan to major in music in college, but won't give it up entirely. “I'll enroll in a couple of music classes or join the col- lege band,” he said. Alton played trumpet Although Alton has been playing the trumpet since fourth grade and has been tak- ing private lessons nearly as long, he credits Senior High band instructor Gary Tangen with his success as a high school musician. “Tangen has been my best teacher,” Alton said. “I’ve taken private lessons from him all through high school.” Alton was selected to All Northwest Band last year and chosen for All State Band both his junior and senior years. His trumpet solos have receiv- ed superior ratings two con- secutive years. Out of school, the trumpet player has played profes- sionally for the visiting Ice Follies at Metra and has played for the Billings Sym- phony. Alton said that he won’t major in music either, but hopes to play with a musical group “just for fun” in col- lege. Steif on strings Steif re ceived a music scholarsh to Northwest Commu! C lege.

She also played in a string quartet, a string trio, and a chamber group, all of which received one ratings at district festival as well as the state festival. The junior entertainer earn- ed a one at state festival with her violin solos and a second for her piano solo. “It's dif- ficult to select three or four outstanding students,” Payne said, “from such an outstand- ing band.” It was truly a “lucky” year for the Senior High Music Department. 148 Bronc IN THE BANDROOM, Tim Dalbec spent hours practicing for what would lead to his first job upon graduation. Tim played in the Pep Band, Sym- phonic Band, Marching Band, and Orchestra during his years at Senior High. T aA From bandroom to bands- tand. It was a relatively short step for Tim Dalbec, senior drum- mer who opted graduation with his class for a job with a touring band. Dalbec left school May 25 to join The Johnny Russ Show in Davenport, Iowa, and to begin touring the mid-west as the group’s drummer. “It’s something I thought about doing for a year when I graduated,” Dalbec said, “so I put a notice on the bulletin board at Drostes Music store.” The young drummer who was leaving the band to play for a recording studio in his hometown Chicago, saw the notice and the group audi- tioned Dalbec. Dalbec’s mother recalls that he began drumming when he was 10 years old in the fourth grade band in Shelby. “When we moved to Billings and he enrolled in Castlerock as a seventh grader, he was sub- jected to excellent music teachers,” Jeri Dalbec said. She accredits his ability to the Billings schools’ music depart- ment. Tim played in a stage band at der Schwartzwald, a dinner theater east of Billings, last summer. He also played the timpani for special services at his church. In school he was a member of Symphonic Band, Orchestra, Pep and Marching Bands. The 6-foot-6 drummer had contemplated broadcasting school at Browns Institute in Minneapolis and may still pur- sue a radio career. “For now, he’s going to let the chips fall,” his mother said. “The band is an excellent learning experience for him and may change his plans.” Tim’s father was able to see- him play in a nearby town and “was amazed at his en- thusiasm and talent.” “Tim has always loved entertaining,” Mrs. Dalbec said. The band, a Chicago- based group, usually spends two weeks in each city they visit. “They do a lot of enter- taining — numbers when they use monkey masks and the like.” Tim’s family is very suppor- tive of his job opportunity. His grandmother, however, expressed concern. “She wanted to know three things,” Tim said. “If 1 could wash my own clothes, would I get homesick, and if I’d make enough money to eat on. ON THE BANDSTAND, Tim drums for dollars with The Johnny Russ Show out of Chicago. When he had been with the band for only three weeks, he was doing a three- minute drum solo to Wipeout.” Break 149 i I I NORTHWESTERS QUARTET and Phil Gackle, (STANDING) members are (SITTING) Wayne Todd Chakos Beebe, (KNEELING) Pete Solie, 2aantet %ated fcidye costtmestte', 'Zfott ve The Northwesters Quartet began in 1976. Three of the members were in the All Nor- thwest Choir, a choir for the best in the northwestern states, and decided the quartet should be called the Northwesters to be a friendly spite to the fourth member. Because the fourth member was outvoted, and good-natured, the name is still used by BSHS quartets. This year’s highly acclaimed quartet, Wayne Bebee, Todd Chakos, Phil Gackle, and Pete Solie began practicing in March 1983. “One day Mr. Halpin picked four voices that he felt would blend well, and there were the Northwesters,” Todd Chakos, tenor, said. Of the four voices, two, Chakos and Gackle, were Var- sity Choir. Bebee and Solie were pulled from The Dukes. Obviously, Halpin’s choice Being the best isn’t easy. It took a tremendous amount of work and dedication from the young men in the Nor- thwesters Quartet. “This has been the best barbershop quartet I’ve ever seen!” exclaimed Paul Halpin, director of choirs at Senior High. “They performed at district and state music festival and received four perfect scores in a row.” Perfect scores mean they received all five points in each of the eight musical categories or a total of 40 points from the judges. “They are the only quartet to ever do that,” Halpin said. One judge’s comment was “Thank you! You’ve made my day!” Another judge leaned back in her chair and told the story of her boss rule to live by: “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it!” was an excellent one because the blend of these four singers went unparalleled at the state music festival. With their set of music, con- sisting of a smattering of tradi- tional barbership and re- written contemporary tunes, the Northwesters sang at ban- quets, nursing homes, con- certs, festivals, and even sacrificed a school day to tour the junior highs. This tour, with the Accents, Expressions, and Nor- thwesters, proved an effective choral recruiting tool. Already the enrollment has soared for tryouts for Varsity Choir in 84-85. Many incoming sophomores also auditioned and more than the usual number of two made the top choir. Besides being in Nor- thwesters, all four boys were £ i r r made tty day- also in Expressions, a select group of top singers, chosen yearly. Chakos served as presi- dent of choirs sharing duties with Gackle as vice president. Bebee was elected as the 1984-85 choir president which demonstrates the amount of dedication and leadership needed for a good quartet. Although both Gackle and Chakos are leaving for college, and Solie is unable to sing next year due to schedules conflict, Bebee hopes for a quartet next year and tryout will be con- ducted. However, Bebee feels that quartets like the 83-84 group are few and far bet- ween. Chackos will attend Mon- tana State University and Gackle is enrolling in an elec- tronics college in Phoenix, Arizona. 150 Bronc VARSITY CHOIR member sare (FRONT ROW) Judy Tipton, Christine Bender, Suzanne Kusel, Kaye Hamby, Dina Abdul Moneim, Lisa Smith, Leaha Alt, Shelly Levy, Renee Frasch, Laura Parker, Sheri Silcox, Lynette Evans, Roberta Reiley, Angie Bomer, Chert Lawrence.

But whether or not mixing the Acapella and the Duke choirs together at semester time was a lucky move is left up to the in- dividual. This is the first time since 1976 that this has been tried. Forming a group like this re- quired cooperation and took an abundance of patience on both the students part and Paul Halpin, the choir’s direc- tor. The group sang a variety of music, from patriotic to several frolicking pieces. They also performed at the District Music Festival at Billings West High, where they enhanced their musical abilities. The students agreed that it was harder to work with four parts rather than the usual three parts, and it took a while for everyone to adjust to the four part harmony. Many members were frustrated by the time required to cover all the parts, but once the class brought down its barriers and didn’t worry about singing in front of a member of the op- posite sex, the pieces started to fit together.

The vaudeville theme for the follies was a compromise bet- ween Nesbit and Z-Club. This theme was chosen because the follies are in December, but the club did not want the follies to be a Christmas Pro- gram. Profits came from ticket sales. The major overhead ex- pense was the $500 that was spent purchasing decorations. The only other expense was the $35 prize money awarded to a student for the best act. This year the prize money went to Korine Fujiwara for her “Fiddin Fuji” act. Frank Zavala, with his break- dancing act, came in second place. The Humanities Dancers ran a close third place tying with the “Disappearing Act,” which was performed by a group of majorettes. Different from past follies the only comedy was the clown act, while the rest were danc- ing and singing acts. The clowns got the show rolling when they came down the aisles on the tricycles. Ushers, wearing vaudeville dresses, were Tammie Moltzan, Amy Kohnke, Jen- nifer Zartman, and Michelle Gallagher. The A.F.S. Follies once operated as a traveling vaudeville show and this year's follie’s theme brought back memories of when the shows traveled around Billings for live performances at the three high schools. The follies premiered in 1940 with stars from all three schools, Billings Senior, Billings West, and Billings Central Catholic. Tryouts were held at each school with winners joining the traveling show for two performances at Senior and West and one at Central. Humanities classes perform- ed most of the acts when the follies began. “Now the show gives the students who usually do not perform a chance to do so,” says Charles Nesbit, English teacher and follies director. Nesbit, who started as the choreographer, fell heir to the position of director when the first director left. The money raised is donated to the American Field Service program. In past years the follie’s have netted around $1,000.

HOLD ON A SECOND, Darrell Kautz complains as Stacy Farmer and Devin Jensen both present the sides of the argument at the same time. In Junior Miss, Kautz played an eccentric, wandering uncle who returns in the middle of a family cirisis. Barretts of Grand Avenue The true story of the roman- tic courtship of Elizabeth Bar- rett and Robert Browning came alive on the winter play The Barretts of Wimpole Street. The Barretts seemed to be as at home on Grand Avenue as at their original London address. Although the first act got off to a slow start, the talent of Micheala Koessler became more apparent in the second act. This sophomore actress was making her debut on the BSHS stage. With her por- trayal of Elizabeth Barrett. Director Phyllis Smith also selected a sophomore for the role of Octavious Barrett. Kir: by Badura’s portrayal of Elizabeth’s brother provided comic relief for the serious drama. Robert Browning, Brown- ing’s almost flippant but devoted suitor, was played by senior Darrell Kautz. Kautz’s role was in direct contrast to that of Kurt Llewellyn who played Elizabeth’s domineer- ing father, Edward. Bonnie Finch, senior, played the role of Henriette Barrett, Elizabeth’s out- spoken temperamental little sister, with the true spunk of a redhead. Drama peaked in a scene when Edward Barrett con- fronted his youngest daughter, Henrietta, about her romance with a military man played by Chris Kelleher. Finch made a strong come back for someone who hadn’t been in production since her sophomore year. The play climaxed with Finch, the love-struck daughter, (sobbing and) hanging at the knees of her father, between whom mutual hate existed. Heidi Hermstad, junior, was excellent in the part of the maid, Wilson, in which she was cast two weeks before the play. Stacy Farmer also a junior, was playing the role until a cast member dropped out and Farmer was moved from Wilson to the part of Arabel, Elizabeth’s concerned older sister. Farmer’s adapt English accent lent authentici- ty to the Wimpole street fami- ly. Veteran actor, senior Will Jenkins, played a double-role. He appeared as Dr. Chambers in the opening scene and returned in the third act as Henry Beuan, fiancee of Bella Hedley, played by Lisa Boyer. Devin Jensen, also a veteran on the BSHS stage, completed the Barrett family as Henry Barrett. Scott Kusel did a bit part as D.R. Ford Waterlow and assisted Mrs. Smith as stu- dent director. The 1845 London apart- ment set was well done by the stagecraft class under the direction of Robert Saltee, English instructor. Todd Hill- ing designed the set and Kevin Hawkins did light design. Familiar to some because of its 1930 Broadway production and 1950 motion picture. The Barretts drew a near-capacity crowd both nights. 156 Bronc MM Couples presented in three acts THE UNIFORM DOESN‘T MAKE THE MAN, but in Banettst costumes added to the authenticity of the 1850 London setting, Chris Kelleher falls In love with the younger daughter Henrietta. The drama season :ulminated with student direc- tors producing three one-act plays under the title ‘Couples” The three directors were chosen by Robert Saltee, tlrama coach, for their ability to direct. Kurt Llewellyn was selected for “Same Time, Next Year,” Gretchen Hager for “Barefoot in the Park,” and Devin Jensen, “The Odd Cou- ple.” “Same Time, Next Year” featured Darrell Kautz as George, and Fran DuCharme as Doris, both of whom aged over a quarter of a ntury during the pe: -ina The couple had a xt” orital affair each yc u ame time. The 24 saw the couple t ig, veral emotional inc its jding the most inter an listic scene when G ge jssed that his son wa illec Viet- nam. The aging process of the couple was very bclicveable, thanks to make-up lips learned from Andy Schroneberg, local artist and makeup specialist. The second play, “Barefoot in the Park,” starred Monique Conklin and Chris Kelleher as Corie and Paul Bratten, a newlywed couple struggling with opposite personalities. A marriage built on a rocky foundation was further com- plicated by Victor Velasco, played by Mike O’Donnell. Velasco, a noisy neighbor, taught them the eccentric way of popping hors d’ ourves and sing “Jimmy Crack Corn” in Greek. Another complication was Cone’s mother. Mrs. Banks, portrayed by Paula Odegard. The ailing mother’s intrusion upon the couple’s lives creates choas. She relies on her “little pink pills” and sleeps on a board, then expects Corie and Paul to treat her as a helpless child. “The Odd Couple,” the third play revolved around two bachelors with different personalities and habits. The two are slowly driving each other crazy since they are so different. Will Jenkins, played the slob, Oscar Madison, and Kurt Lehman was Felix Ungar, “Mr. Clean.” The first scene begins with Felix cooking a meal while waiting for Oscar to return home. When Oscar walks in, he an- nounces that he invited Cecily and Gwendolyn Pigeon over for dinner. Felix is just recovering from a recent divorce, and when Oscar leaves the room for drinks, then returns, Felix has everyone in tears over the pic- tures of his ex-wife and children, and askes “is everyone happy?” Then ad- ding, “what did you do?” tur- ning his attention to Felix. A barber shop quartet enter- tianed during the first half of the intermission. The all-male group included Phil Gackle, senior; Todd Chakos, senior; Wayne Beebe, junior; and Pete Solie, junior. The boys went under the name of the “The Northwesters.” “The Sweet Alto-Lines,” a female barber shop quartet, consisting of Shelly Dunkel, senior; Linnea Forseth, senior; Nora Huseby, junior; and Renee Frasch, senior, also per- formed during intermission. Many felt “Couples” was the most intense and dramatical performance of the '83-‘84 season. Drama season opens on light vein In the drama department’s fail presentation, family affairs are imagined by a precocious teenager who turns Junior Miss into a hit comedy. The fall play featured a family conflict during which Judy, portrayed by Celeste McCarty, tries to prove to herself that her father is hav- ing a affair. The opening night received a better response because the audience consisted of more parents and teachers com- pared to the following night’s audience of students. Cast in supporting roles were Devin Jensen as Harry Graves, a dependable and romantic father, Stacy Farmer as his wife, Renee Mion as a typical 13-year-old best friend of Judy. Gretchen Hager played a stuck-up teen of 16 going- on-20, while Will Jenkins was a businessman-father and boss of Grave who kept his daughter isolated from any form of fun. Darrell Kautz, portrayed Uncle Willis, who saved Ellen from her father’s clutches. Mark Guenther, Adam Cox, and Kirby Badura played double roles as boyfriends of the precocious Judy.

The fun and excitement of a formal dance is not only the dance itself, but also the preparations for the “big night.” For the guys, the hardest task is getting up the nerve to ask that “special” girl. What next? Now comes the expensive part. Most guys spend their money ren- ting tuxedos, buying the dance ticket, buying a coursage for their date and din- ner. For the girls, the frightful part of for- mals is wondering if they’ll get asked at all. Unlike the guys, girls have only one major expense, buying or renting a dress. Of course, they buy a boutonniere for their date and sometimes spend money getting a fancy hairdo. Before the dance, the couple usually visits both homes for introductionswith parents. This is always nerve-racking for both guys and girls. Not only does the couple have to sit pretty for the camera, but they also have to pin on flowers while the entire family watches. When the introductions are over, din- ner is next on the agenda. Often the couples double date rather than go alone. Dinner is special because it means eating in a fancy restaurant with no price limits. Although dinner is formal, the at- mosphere is quite relaxing. Last, but not least, is the dance itself. Winter Formal was at Eastern Montana College’s Student Union Building on Dec. 9. Couples danced from 9-12 to music provided by the popular band, “Your Move.” The dance was sponsored by two clubs. Kinetic and AK. Kinetic Club organized and decorated for the dance while AK took care of royalty. Crowned Ice Prince and Princess were Steve Garza and Sue Grunstead. The other candidates for Prince were Jack Berg, Barry Burton, Chris Marsh and Jeff Mayfield.Other Princess candidates were Heidi Dennison, Colleen Drake, Kathy FitzGerald and Tammy Reiter. FOLLOWING THE TRADITION of formals are Bill Kenney, Andy Montague, Katie Agnew and Susan Sheard. The foursome took time before the dance to pose for pictures and to meet parents. A picture that is always memorable is one in which the flowers are pin- ned on as displayed by Katie and Bill. After the pictures, the group dined at (he Pertoleum Club, went to the dance, and concluded the evening with videos. 160 Bronc WtujJtrfd HcicU DewtWftK f Sue 61uM Uad Poi ( Gold 161 1 . I � ‘HavSrland Wins ‘PopularTftle 162 Bronc Has the honor of being chosen Miss Broncette turned into a popularity contest rather than its original significance? According to a 1959 Senior High newspaper, the Miss Broncette title was presented to the senior girl with the most school spirit, who best represented Senior High at sporting events, was friendly to all, and left a favorable, lasting impres- sion. Many students and faculty members feel it has lost its original meaning because the girl chosen isn’t always the all around athlete. “Twenty-five years ago, Miss Broncette was chosen by the student body to be the queen of sports,” commented Tami Davidson. “One who was at all the sports events, had lots of school spirit, and was friendly. One who represented the school.” Davidson was vice president of Activities Club (AK), which sponsored the February third dance and was elected as a Broncette candidate shortly after making the comment. Chosen as Miss Broncette was Pam Haverland who was not present at the dance, but was later crowned with a black cowboy hat and presented with roses. Haverland was at a religious retreat known as a SEARCH. Other candidates were Lisa Boyer, Tami Davidson, Koby Kasten, and Tracy Noennig. The theme song for the evening was DeBarge’s “Time Will Reveal.”Students danced to the music of Family Affair.

Michelle Zartman, president of Z-Club, commented that they chose the theme Camelot to appeal more towards the guys. “Since this dance was supposed to be for the guys, we chose a more masculine theme,99 said Zartman. Suzy Kusel, vice- president of Z-Club, was in charge of decorations. Zartman felt the decorating for the dance went smoothly. Members of Z-Club, along with help form outsiders, decorated all day Friday and Saturday. BKC was paid $30 to come on Sunday to help clean-up. Spectrum, the band that provided the music for the dance, received much con- troversy. Students complained that the songs played were too old to appeal to them. “The band itself played will but the songs were out of date,” stated Lisa Howell, a junior. Lincoln cheerleaders were chosen to serve the refreshments of punch and cookies. Approximently 150 couple at- tended the $7 a ticket dance. At 11, the Mr. Perferred candidates were escorted to the stage by their dates. Kusel then pronounced Wade Ellis the winner. Zartman crowned Eilis before the spotlight dance. Since the dance was a semi-formal, most of the girls that attended wore short dresses. However, many of the guys still wore tuxes. There were also some girls in tuxes, jumpsuits, and long dresses.

Tradition ruled out the rising populari- ty of off campus proms when the junior class decided once again to hold Prom in the old gym on May 5. Controversy was present with whether to have Prom at school. Kerri Becktold, president of the Junior Class, explains why it was in the gym. “I think we can decorate a lot more and add our own per- sonal touches.” Others feel much the same, since it is the last formal for the year and the last high school formal for seniors. The Junior Class starts planning for Prom when as sophomores. The raise money needed for decorations, music, tickets, memory books, napkins, and refreshments. A month before the dance, the junior class was busy deciding the theme and choosing decorations for the last big fling for the year. The acutal decorating did not start until the Tuesday before the dance and final touches were added Satur- day morning after the band arrived.

Frieda Bonebright and Nancy Hoggatt stretch and rest for the up- coming run. PROMISING PLACER in the state meet is Frieda Bonebright who finished 33rd of ap- proximately 180 runners. A junior, she will be heading the Bronc pack next year. More than just running the race “You don’t have to be super-talented. You just have to want to run.” This is how Tom Feeley, girls cross country coach encourages would-be team members. Although there are some naturals, for most it takes time and practice to build up the strength and stamina needed for com- petition. This practice begins with 20-30 minutes of stretching each day to prevent injuries. Then comes the running. The girls run an average of 20-35 miles a week. “However,” said Feeley, “this doesn’t in- clude the running they do on their own time.” In goes the work and out comes the benefits. Aside from the physical qualities of a stronger and healthier body, a social enrichment transpires. Feeley said, “It’s a good place to meet people-good people. Although an individual sport, the cross country team, as in other sports, bands together to create a close-knit relation- ship. Cheering each other on to victory and comforting one another in times of loss, they create such an atmosphere. This camaraderie became apparent at the state meet in Helena where the girls took seventh in a field of 14 teams, a signifi- cant improvement from their twelfth place finish last year. “I think we all really learned a lot about getting along together. This is the best season we’ve had in a long time!” ex- pressed Judy Tipton, senior. Agreeing with Tipton, Ann Adkins looks forward to her next two years of running on the cross country team. Adkins said, “Being a sophomore, it was a new experience for me. I Learned a lot about rough competition and am look- ing forward to next year.” Summing it all up, Feeley said, “It’s really worth it.” GIRLS’ STATE CROSS COUNTRY TEAM.

The amazing thing about the team, according to coach Robert Schwarz, was that four sopho- mores ran in the slate meet. “This was the best sophomore team I’ve ever worked with ’ said coach Schwarz.

But earlier in the season, Hanley placed second and the team placed first. Injuries really hurt the Bronc effort throughout the season. Mopes of a better season were dashed when senior Jack Taylor was injured in pre-season training. Taylor injured his knee and required surgery. Sophomore Brian Pearl and Hanley both were injured just before the state meet. “The team did very well despite all the draw-backs,” Schwarz said. We took first place in dual meet with a second overall finish for Hanley. At the state meet in Helena, the Broncs took seventh. “We didn’t do as well as ex- pected,” said Coach Schwarz. “The competition was also very young. Six of the teams at state will have returning teams, but we will also have a very strong team to compete with. I just hope we don’t have as many injuries,” said Schwarz.

Cross 173 DODGING A WEST defender, Dave Bealon unsuccessfully scrambles for a score. Bronc spirits high, wins few-1-8 Although the Broncs did not suffer any great physical pain on the gridiron, they struggled mentally to keep their spirits high when wins were low. Pulled muscles, hamstrings and groins were secondary to the injured pride of the Broncs who have not had a winning streak since 1979 when they captured the state AA title. Despite the 1-8 record, new coach Tom Hauck managed to hold the moral of the team at an all-time high. Hauck, who served as assistant coach —•for 15 years, assumed leadership of the football team last spring. “We tried to keep the moral high by keeping the team members’ confidence up. Self image of each team member had to be maintained at a high level said Hauck. “The team came close, within a few seconds or a yard or two The game against Missoula Sentinal was one of the Bronc s closest. When the final whistle blew, the score was Sentinal 14 -Broncs 6. “Although we didn’t win, the team kept giving it their best Hauck said. A poll conducted among the varsity players echoed the same opinion. The players felt that the team worked hard during their gridiron battles and although they did not walk away with a winning season, they felt that the tough drills day after day were hard, but necessary for the development of a good team. The rotation of captains before every game was a good idea, the team felt. Most schools elect a captain for the entire year but by rotating the captains, it gave more players a chance to lead the team. Coach Hauck said that he felt that the team had performed “to the best of its abilities, which I greatly appreciated The very optimistic coach is looking forward to next year. “I consider myself an optimistic-type person. Around the state, no one is expecting the Broncs to do well next year. I want to prove them wrong 174 Bronc BISON OFFENSE SETS UP to charge through a tough Bronc defense.

CrOSS 175 Sophomore looks promising A newcomer to Senior High, Dave Beaton could possibly be the brightest hope for the Broncs football team since Bryan Compton contributed to the 1979 state championship. When Beaton started fall practice with the Broncs, he had no idea what was to be in store for him that year. The sophomore quarterback said, “The practices and workouts were fun. I en- joyed working with the team very much.” When Coach Hauck saw how well Beaton played football, he wanted Dave to play on the varsity team. “It was a calculated risk. Very few sophomores are asked to play on a Varsity team,” Hauck said, “but very few sophomores display the talent that Beaton did either.” “I was nervous about starting the Var- sity team, especially the position of quarterback,” Beaton said. The football season went by and though the winning record the Broncs had hoped for never seemed to take hold, the players kept up the Bronc spirit. Beaton also refused to get “down” and combined his good attitude with his play abilities on both teams. “Dave Beaton played outstanding J.V, games. When he plays, he plays as if every game is his only game. He gives everything he’s got and sometimes mofg, Hauck said, “I was happy to hear that Dave plans to continue playing football in the 1984-85 season. He is a valuable assett to the team.” Beaton is the leading candidate for junior varisty quarterback for the 84-85 football season.Dave’s promising future was evident in the Junior Varsity game against Billings Central. Beaton made all 32 points when the Broncs won 32-30. He also played in the cross-town rivarly game against West High and made a touchdown. The sophomore said his favorite place is Daylis Stadium at Senior High. “Everytime I step in there, I think of all the people who have been in there before me and the many to come after me. I feel lucky to be able to play football here. To, be a Bronc football player is special. There is a lot of pride on the football field.

But, to his surprise, that team didn’t “click.” “This year’s team was younger and more inexperienced, but they “click- ed.” Peterson said. According to Laurie Wilcox, senior, the winning combination was “A good coach, cooperative members, a team that is willing to listen to the coach and hard work.” Other contributing factors are “Working as a team on and off the floor,” says Glen. Mary Smentanka, sophomore said, “A team that plays and thinks well together is a must.” How do members of the team feel towards their teamates? Erika Drain, senior said, “They are my friends” Wilcox said, “We all got along very well, and were very close.” The strong and weak areas of the team ■weren’t the same for each member. Glen said the strong areas were “shooting and rebounding,” while Wilcox said, “The closeness of our members. It’s easier to play with people you know and like.” On the other hand, Drain said the weak areas are “No patience,” while Smetanka said “It was a mental problem. Looking too far ahead.” The overall season according to Peter- son, was one of improvement. The Broncettes tallied four wins immediately but fell to C.M.Russell and Great Falls High. Center Smentanka had injured her lower back and could not play in the challenge between the two Great Falls teams. The Broncettes split with West High winning their first game, but West High came out on top when the two teams met in their second game. In the second match-up, the Broncettes were down at half time, but came back with a full court press and offensive discipline to out score West by 13 points in the third quarter. The game was very close and important baskets were made in the last minutes, but West High still over-powered them. In the next games, C.M.Russell and c ieat Falls defeated the Broncettes once again. The Broncettes entered Divisionals with high spirits. In the first game, the Broncettes were face to face with West once again. The final score was 45-35, West the victors • The second game was against Bozeman, was even closer. In the final quarter, Bozeman took over and won with a final score of 46-45.

McRae’s older brothers got her involved in the sport. “I never won, but I liked trying. 4 “Working for consistancy has been a goal. ’ McRae said that it has kept her in- terest in basketball. McRae’s biggest supporter is her father. “He played while he was in high school and understands most of the frustrations that come and go.” The junior eager began playing on a team in the fifth and sixth grade. She played on a city league team and played all three years at Lincoln Junior High and has been on Senior’s teams for the past two years. What does McRae personally get out of playing? “I think it increased my self- confidence, keeps me in good physical condition, and enables me to learn to work with others.” Describing the season from her own view point, she said, “I know 1 learned more this year than all of the other years put together. With learning comes pain sometimes, but being able to make it past the hard times was the best lesson I could ever learn.” Outside of school, McRae practices three or four times a week during spring and summer. She does most of her prac- ticing at home, but occasionally goes to Eastern Montana College. She practices anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour. All players have strong and weak areas. McRae thinks her strongest area is outside shooting. On the other band, deception seems to be her weak area. “It’s hard to fool someone that knows the moves too.” McRae is going to miss basketball since she is going to be away from school next year on an American Field Service Ex- change, but hopes to continue playing b-ball anywhere she goes.

Peterson said, “The team was healthy in spirit. We had good scores, and a good coach.” This, and hours of practice a night made the team what it was. “The team's depth in each event and good individuals competing in every event made the team strong,” the coach said. The season went much better than had been expected in the fall. Peterson said, “Even though we had a good season, we needed to concentrate more and not have as much fun.” Coach Matthews looked at this year as a building time for next year.” “We progressed much faster than I ex- pected and we did, indeed, become a con- tender,” said Matthews. Peterson pointed out that the group’s effort to com- municate did give the team background to help perform their best. seniors who will be difficult to replac Matthews hopes the returning girls ca pickup where they left off this year. “Gymnastics is an individual sport with team concept,” Mathews said. “You ca be very successful as an individual whic also leads to a successful team.” The team steadily improved throughoi the entire season, Matthews said, whic lead to third place in divisional. “At div sionals the team performed very well, w hit our highest score of the season.” Thi score led the team to state where they too sixth place.

This year the petite blonde was named “most valuable gymnast” on Senior High’s team. Peterson, according to coach bam Mat- thews, was “one of the best leaders the team has ever had.” Peterson started competing when sne was in the fifth grade. She started in an academy, then enrolled in The Billings Gymnastics Club for five years. Nobody really encouraged the petite gymnast to go into this sport, she said. “I just saw Nadia Comaneci on TV and wanted to be like her. What she was doing was interesting and it looked fun.” The senior gymnast continued com peting because she really enjoyed it. “It was something I could do by myself,” she said. “When mom got sick of' following me to every meet, my coach became my best supporter.” Peterson had two very successful years. “My first was ninth grade and my second was this year,” said Peterson, “It was rewarding for me because it was my final year of competing.” After graduating from high school, Peterson plans to give up gymnastics for dance. Cross 183 State Title . Gymnasts tumble to the top The boys gymnastics team brought themselves up from a fifth place last year to a state championship title. Ted Polette, the new coach, gave the team incentive to improve their attitude and perform to full potential. “Depth in all the team members made the team good,” said Polette. According to Bob Morgan, the strong points of the team were the supportive team members and determination during practices. “In gymnastics you have to be more devoted than any other sport,” said Polette, “you have to have your whole heart into it and our team did, so we went far.” “Team members held together because most were friends from junior high.” Morgan said. “We stuck together and it payed off.” This year’s team was “unbeatable,” said Morgan. “We had everything going for us. A good coach, supportive team members and determination.” Overall, according to Morgan, “The team had its best talent mostly because of our new coach.” Even though the team did well, they had their faults, too. “Every team has its ups and downs,” said Morgan, “and our down fall was discipline. We needed to ack down more instead of having fun all ' time,” However the fun during prac- s did lift up their spirits to perform at all meets, make themselves good enough to ate championship, the team had to three to four hours a night, five a week. According to Polette, the improved gymnast this year was Giesick. All together, the team did best in parellel bars and floor excercise. Next year’s most favored gymnast is Kip Madsen. “He did a good job for us this year and has very good potential for next year.” INTENSE CONCENTRATION is shown by Scott Giesick on the parellel bars.

Steve Gallaway, wrestling in the 132 lb, weight class, decisioned Chris Clark of Missoula Hellgate 8-4 to win the state championship. The senior wrestler com- piled a 19-1 win-loss record losing only to Brad Harris from Miles City, the eventual State Class A wrestling champion. The champion mat man has been wrestling for 12 years, including 8 years in A.A.U. Last summer the 18-year-old Gallaway traveled with the U.S. team to wrestle in Germany where he compiled a 4-1 win-loss record. Wade Ellis, 185 lb. champion, wrestled to a 24-3 record including 21 pins, which ties a school record. In the state meet, he avenged an 8-6 loss at the hands of Terry McIntyre by pinning McIntyre of Great Falls in 3 minutes and 33 seconds to win the state championship. Ellis, who is plan- ning to attend college, is traveling with the U.S. team to Japan this summer for a culture exchange meet. Sophomore John Bell was the only other Bronc finisher. He reached the semi-finals and finished fifth in the 98 lb. class. Going into the state meet, his record was 20-4. First year head coach, Gordon Schlabs, summed up the season by saying, “Although we had two individual state champs, I felt as a team we could have placed in the top five. However, 1 am hap- py with our dual meet record of 7-4, which we improved compared to last year.” Schlabs, who replaced Tom Hauck, has high expectations for the future from sophomore lettermen John Bell, Chris Mota, and Scott Filius, and Junior lettermen Mike Stillwell and Kelly Fish.

Cross 187 It's a first for girls History was made when Senior High challenged West High in Billings first in- terscholastic girls volleyball match. The game, played on Jan. 21, was the first game for either Billings schools but not for the state. The western part of Montana has been involved in in- terseholastic girls volleyball for more than three years. The 1983-84 school year was the first year that girls volleyball was recognized as an interscholastic sport state wide. A total of 17 class AA and A teams made up the new sport. The class B and C teams were also matched with 48 teams composing their conference. Billings Senior’s Varsity team was nar- rowly defeated by scores of 15-12, 15-13 during the historical game. Class AA and A teams were pitted against each other, “The reason for this (the class AA and A teams playing together) was because the sport is so new,” said Robert Zupan, activities direc- tor. “A schedule for next year’s season has not been set because we expect many more cities to join.” ”Our strongest point as a team was ser- ving,” said Darcy Conway, Senior’s head coach. “That’s what it’s all about, team- work. They all worked together. You can’t have good hits if you don’t have good sets.” Three of Conway’s players received honorable mentions at the Divisional tournament on March 24 in Butte. They were Darcy Jordan, Sue Grunstead and Steph Hannah. Erica Drain was captain of the first team. Conway’s team worked for an 8-13 win loss season record, and went on to achieve the fourth place position at the Divisonal meet. At the State tournament, Senior was eliminated by Poison from the double elimination game. Missoula Big Sky defeated Missoula Hellgate, March 31, in Missoula to attain the State Championship.

Because of the loss of experienced diver and team leader, Gretchen Hager; Shelly Mion, Hilary Warberg, and Ann Adkins picked up the slack and carried the team through the rest of the year. Hager, who left due to a coaching difficulty, com- mented, “My reason for leaving was that 1 didn’t have a diving coach there to help me with my new dives.” The boys team was led by Senior Trey Adkins, who placed third in the diving competition at the state meet in Great Falls. Sophomores Tim Tobin and Darren Smith also did well all year long. The team finished a respectable eighth at the State AA Meet. The year was a learning experience for first-year head coach. Jack Hage and also for the swimmers he coached. Hage, who was overall happy with the season, com- mented “We improved on a lot of things this year. I was happy by the way the older kids took leadership roles. I was also extremely pleased with the way the younger kids picked up on the new techni- ques,” PREPARING FOR THE BEARS Coach Hage gives some inspirational advice to his young swimming corps.

UP, UP, AND AWAY! Quinn Falk executes a hookshot in an attempt for two points against the West High Bears at METRA. Bronc cagers surpass expectations Early season losses to two class A basketball opponents left a cloud of doubt in the minds of Senior High Bronc fans as to the ability of the Varsity basket- ball team. Removing this doubt, the Broncs made a complete turnaround for a 10-4 con- ference record and 12-9 overall season record, including a win over the 1983-84 AA state champions, the Great Falls Bison. Inexperience marked the team at the beginning of the season due to the lack of proven players. With Mike Steckel the on- ly returning starter, J.V. team members had to fill the gap left by last year’s graduating seniors. Said Coach Pat O’Connor, “They all improved through the season and con- tributed to the team.” The backbone of the team by common consensus seemed to be senior Mike Steckel. He was awarded most valuable 'player and held the consistent high point average for the season. He shared the glory of high point games with seniors Ron Ostermiller and Kevin Wold, and sophomore Ty Bernard. In addition to his MVP award, Steckel was named to the First Team All Con- ference and First Team All State, an honor for the 6’5” starter. Steckel was just one of several good ball handlers on the well-balanced varsity team, O’Connor said. At the annual awards banquet in Senior High’s cafeteria, senior Kevin Wold was awarded best defensive player; Joel Stott, most im- proved player; and Ty Bernard, best in- dividual performance in one game. Although the Broncs were considered a well-balanced team, a team isn’t a team without a coach. The players admired and worked hard for Pat O’Connor. Said Steckel, “He has a really good eye for picking out what works. He really makes it happen.” Somehow it just didn’t “happen” at Divisional. Discrepancies in calls, lack of sleep due to the noisy motel, and an at- titude of “let’s just get it over with” aided in the Bronc losses. Although they were victorious over the Great Falls Rustlers, losing games to Great Falls Bison and Helena Capitol knocked the Broncs from the double elimination tourney. “I was pleased with the season,” said Coach O’Connor. “We didn’t make it to State, but sometimes that happens. It’s just the breaks.” 192 Bronc VARSITY TEAM members are (FRONT ROW) Ron Ostermiller, Brad Harvey, Tom Lambdin, Dicki Maxwell, Kevin Wold, Dave Beaton, Joel Stott, (BACK ROW) Wayne Beebe, Brent Olness, Ty Bernard, Parker — CoIIiflower, Mike Steckel, Greg Pehl, Quinn Falk.

Although Mike displayed some ability, he lacked the ag- gressiveness and instincts to be a really good basketball player. When Mike enrolled at Senior High as a sophomore, he went to work to develop the skills he lacked. By the end of his sophomore year he had shown improve- ment, but we did not think he would help the varsity team until his senior year. He fooled everyone. As a junior he started on a team that played in a state championship game only to have his team lose in triple overtime. Mike had made great strides. His big- gest improvement was the result of a weight program. Mike now had the necessary skills and strength to be a com- plete player. But, he still lacked con- fidence and the ability to be consistently aggressive. At the beginning of his senior year, he had grown stronger but still had not im- proved noticeably in the areas that would make him the team leader. After Chirstmas, Mike blossomed into a com- plete player; he now, all of a sudden, realized he really was good. As a result, he became the team’s leading scorer and re- bounder. He now was the team leader by example. Mike made a transformation that I did not think was possible. He improved more as a player than any previous player I have ever coached. HATS OFF TO MIKE!

Joel Stott started the season on j.V. but was quickly moved through the ranks and found a starting position on the Varsity squad. With a few early starts, Stott matured quickly and soon he fit in well. During the Divisionals in Great Falls, Stott was a key player in the games. In the first game against CMR, he compiled 10 points along with Senior Kevin Wold. In the next two games in which the Broncs were defeated, Stott compiled 18 points and pulled down 6 re- bounds. Another gifted J.V. player who moved between J.V. and Varsity was Greg Pehl. Pehl saw limited action on the Varsity Squad but gained valuable experience and will be a great asset to next year’s team. Other J.V. standouts include Jeff Reed, Wayne Beebe and Brad Harvey who pro- bably will make up next season’s Varsity team.

The scene: Great Falls Fairgrounds. The date: May 13, 1984. The plot: The Broncs of Senior in- vade the turf of the Great Falls Bison, the defending State AA champions. The Senior High girls, led by Sherri Achten, Erika Drain, Carol Christensen, Kathy Clovis, Nancy Iverson, Melanie Jones, Laurie Wilcox, Mikal Young, Lynn Dare, Judy Tipton, and Becky Brown, had yet to win a dual meet in the last two years.

With this win to their credit, the lady tracksters looked foward to qualifing many girls for state. They succeded in sending seven girls to state, five in track and two in the field events. At the State AA meet in Butte, the only Senior High girl to place fat points was sophomore Ann Adkins the mile run. She ran to a fourth place finish.

Cross 201 I! All i I Netters ■ “We knew we were going to take our licks.” With senior Brent McCloud the only returning player on the boys tennis team, this was the feeling expressed by Coach Dave Klarich before the season began. Many long hours of practice remedied this. Despite the lack of experience, Klarich was pleased with the team’s ef- fort. nWe were young and inexperienced,” he said, “but we did well with what we went up with. The main aspect is that we came back.” And come back they did. In the Divisional tournament held in Billings, sophomore Ted Smoot, playing in the singles competition, grabbed se- cond place. Boys doubles, Brent McLeod and P.J. Priest, ended their play with a third place victory. At the State tournament in Bozeman, Smoot also captured a place in the top six in the singles category. In turn, McLeod and Priest rounded off the season in the top six in the doubles competition. Although disappointed that not more qualified for State, Klarich was pleased with the year’s outcome. “I was really pleased with the way the team played. We knew what we had to do and we did it,” he said. Aside from the talent of the State placers, Klarich lettered a total of thirteen quality players, nine varisty and four J.V.

Luck held in the second round leaving Smith and Foote victorious over a C.M.R. opponent 6-0, 6-1, but in the third round play, they fell to Bozeman 6-2, 6-2. In the consolation final, Smith and Foote were narrowly defeated 4-6, 7-5, 6-4 by Erin Parks and Uta Schallehn of Hellgate. The tennis duo ended with a fourth place finish. Another exceptional player was senior Lisa Boyer, who held the position of number one singles player on the team. The rest of the traveling team consisted of sophomores Erica Anderson, Sara Fen- tor, Kelly Frankel, and Kim Petersen.' Laurie Kelling and Julie Polly were late additions to the team due to the overlapp- ing of spring sports. Both were sophomores participating in girls volleyball.

Boys putt their way to state title Some may think it was luck, but not to veteran Tim Carlson. Ten inches was the only thing that was between the state championship or another playoff hole. And it wasn’t luck when Carlson lined up the putt and swiftly stroked the ball in- to the hole, and jumped in excitement and yelled “We’ve won!” The Bronc golfers, led by seniors Carlson and Shawn Taft, beat out Helena Capital and Great Falls High in the sud- den death playoff at the state tournament at Fairmont Hot Springs after each team carded a 617 total. Senior High seemed to be the underdog going into the tournament with two straight losses to the Great Falls High team. At the Helena Invitational, the Broncs suffered their first loss of the season to the Great Falls High team. And just one week later, the Broncs lost again to the Great Falls team. But the Broncs were not convinced that they were a second place team. After the first round the score showed the BSHS boys in second place with a team total of 301, two strokes behind Great Falls High. After the second and final day, three teams were tied, Helena Capital, Great Falls and Senior, were tied for the first with a 617 total. The sudden death playoff was to determine the first place team. After the first hole of the playoff, Great Falls was eliminated from the race, putting them into third place. The race was now narrowed to two teams. The first foursome to play the second hole con- sisted of Jeff Davis and Jett Kuntz of Senior High and two players from Helena Capital. The Broncs picked up one stroke on the Helena team as Davis bogied and Kuntz made a difficult 15-foot putt to save par. It was up to Carlson and Taft. But the pressure was too much for the Helena team as Carlson and Taft made routine pars to win the playoff. “I was confident about the state meet even though we lost two straight.” Taft said. “The team has been playing well and I’ve been playing good myself.” And Taft did play well. After the first day, he shot a two under par 70, just one stroke off the state record. He was the tournament medalist with at two-day total of 145. Carlson, who was second both is sophomore and junior years, tied with Todd Kernaghen of Great Falls for se- cond with a 149 total. So, for the second time in their three- year career, the varsity members of the Bronc golf team brought home another first-place trophy. Cross 205 Young golfers capture Girls golf got off to a quick start with the help of a new rule that allows freshman to participate in this spirng sport. The backbone of the team were Angie Price, Debbie Faghen and Leslie Spaulding, all of whom were freshman. The first meet of the year was against Central. The young Broncettes were defeated 269-234. Leading the Broncettes was Angie Price with a 105. Although they lost their first tourna- ment, coach Hank Cox was still pleased with their performance. “They’re a young team and they show promise,” said Cox. The young girls’ first win came against some tough competition. In a meet against Bozeman, Butte, and Billings West, The Broncettes held their first place standing after the first day and went on to win by seven strokes over runner-up Butte. Leslie Spaulding paced the Broncettes with a 91. “With that win, the girls have shown that they can compete with AA schools,” Cox went on the add, “If they keep play- ing and practicing, they have the potential to be champions.” With their win and a boost in con- fidence, the Broncettes went on to state in Fairmont Hot Springs. After the first round, the Senior girls were in fourth place. Leslie Spaulding shot a 92 to lead the team. But the Broncettes could’t better their fourth place standing and finished in fourth place with team total 603, 25 strokes off the Butte H: h pace. Spaulding’s first ro cor - placed her sixth amongst the gir fa' d the se- cond day and fell f‘ en. Coach of the Year Sixteen years as golf coach at Billings Senior has paid off for Hank Cox. Because of his coaching accomp- lishments, he has been nominated for the National High School Golf Coach of the Year 1984. He was also named Golf Coach of the Year 1983 in Montana. In his years as golf coach, Cox has established a winning tradition. His boys teams led him to victory in 1982 as well as 1984, and a close second place in 1983. His girls teams have also gained an im- pressive record: first place finish in 1973 and a second in 1978. But Cox’s ability is not limited to just coaching. Cox is a well-known and respected government teacher and has taught for 28 years at BSHS. Cox’s quick sense of humor makes him a favorite with the students. 206 Bronc IT ALL BEGINS with the basics explains coach Hank Cox as Debbie Faghen, Leslie Spaulding, Debbie Carter, Angie Price, Lisa Barrow, and Deanne Harrison listen attentively.

Many days a year are missed by students who want to participate in out- door sports like these. It seems as if the best smiles come “out” of school Whether it’s skiing, playing hockey, fishing, hunting, or just playing a friendly game of touch football, people cherish the freedoms of being out- side of school doing what they enjoy. Senior High allows 20 days a semestei for miscellaneous absences such at sickness or some of the desired outdoor sports. Senior, Kathy FitzGerald, says, “Senioritis hit me really hard during the warm days of April, and after a while I found myself skipping a few classes and suntanning on the rims.” Another senior, PJ Mullowney commented, “When I leave for lunch I find it very hard to come back to school and sit through three more classes.” Not only do students find it difficult to attend during the warm days but also dur- ing the cold. Sophomore, Scott Studiner commented, “1 live for the fall hunting season just to get to the outdoors and sometimes a weekend isn’t enough. I like to enjoy myself without being worried about getting back to school.” It seems as if everybody is involved in some kind of sport or activity outside of school. These people like to get away from the school activities because school sports usually have certain restrictions to keep students from really letting go and having fun and sometimes students just need a day off. ONE—SHOT BULL Sophomore Scott Studiner proudly holds the head of his Bull Elk shot during the late hunting season near Gard- ner, Montana. 208 Bronc WATER AND WOODS of the Yellowstone River lured many a student away from the academic routine. Ling fishing, an all-night ac- tivity, became popular in the spring when students grabbed their fishing poles and head- ed for the banks of the Yellowstone. Jk FLYING THROUGH THE AIR, sophomore Shane O’Brien lakes a few days off to enjoy the skiing at Sun Valley, Idaho. Most students, however, didn’t make it as far as Sun Valley. They enjoyed their skiing days at Red Lodge Mountain. Girl sharpshooter As the sun starts to light the sky in the crisp fall mornings, many Montanan men have already risen and are ready for the oncoming hunting season. More frequent- ly however, girls are joining their dads and brothers on hunting trips. Sophomore Angie Moody is one of these girls. During hunting season Moody is up with the roosters just like her dad and other men who enjoy the outdoors of Montana. “It’s not the killing I hunt for, it’s being able to spend time with my dad and doing something we both enjoy,” said the 16-year-old Moody. But what do people think when they hear about a girl in a masculine sport such as killing wildlife? “I took hunter safety in sixth grade with a few boys who were in my class at school. At first, they were always making fun of me because I was a girl, but that soon ended when we took our tests and mine was returned with a better score than any of them ’ said the boastful outdoorswoman. Born in South Dakota, Moody moved to Montana at a young age and has been hunting since seventh grade. In her four years of hunting, she has baggedfourdeer and one elk. “My dad is a real out- doorsman; he has three daughters and no sons so he pushed his hunting influences on all of us girls and we just followed,” said Moody.

Kirk Woosley (FACING) and classmates enjoyed a chicken picnic in Pioneer Park before the fun and games of senior week went into full swing. Seniors play in Pioneer Park When leftovers from last fourth of July had exploded in the hallways, the class of ‘84 emerged from the sulpher smoke and simmered off in the coolness of Pioneer Park. The last day of school was truly a memorable one for the seniors who waited anxiously, not only for the final bell of their high school career to sound, but also for the “seniors only” fl- ing in the park adjacent to Senior High. The final organized function for the seniors before gradua- tion, the picnic was organized by class officers: Darrell Kautz, president; Jackie Schanz, vice president; Suzy Kusel, secretary; and a handful of classmates. Guiding plans for the school sanc- tioned event were class advisers Jim Lodman and Mary De- Jarnett. Because of a bulging class treasury, tickets for the picnic were sold just to get head count and went to 300 people for 25 cents. Senior teachers and other faculty members particularly close to the class of ‘84 served chicken, macaroni salad, rolls, cookies and punch. Butler’s Kitchen on Grand Avenue catered the chicken and the rest of the menu was prepared by Senior High’s cafeteria. Mother Nature cooperated with the picnickers who played volleyball and baseball and took time to capture some last minute snapshots of friends and teachers. “The picnic was really fun,” Todd Chakos said, “And it was neat that the teachers were out there serving us dinner. It was a good get-together; a sort of bon voyage for the seniors.” Senior Lara Lund said, “I thought the picnic was fun because it gave everyone a last chance to be with friends and do things not school related.” In an unusually cool and rainy spring, the sun seemed to be shining on the “lucky” class of ‘84. LAST MINUTE AUTOGRAPHS were written at the picnic. Larry McGrail takes time from activities to sign a memory book so popular with the class of 84. ON THE EVE of the last day of school for seniors, emotions ran high and were worked off during a volleyball game in Pioneer Park. Fran DuCharme, Todd Wester, and Kurt Leham (FRONT OF NET) were among those who became involved in the game. BASEBALL was the popular game at the picnic.

Skippers pay consequences Even if one doesn’t have the dreaded 20 days absent, there are some days it just doesn’t pay to skip school. Seniors learned this lesson from their normally “reasonable and just” principal, James Rickard who doesn’t believe in lengthy lists of rules and regulations. But, when Rickard speaks, students listen. The problem wasn’t the rule or the consequence, the problem was the weather. Signs around school reading only “SSD” scrawled in dripping script with tempra paint, advertised the skip day as a Thursday in late April. However, the 80 degree weather was predicted to turn sour, and several seniors decided the Tuesday before the designated day was going to be their last chance to “catch some rays on the Rims.” Late in the day, Rickard’s voice came over the loud speaker warning not only the seniors, but the entire school, that anyone who skipped school that week would be assigned to an addi- tional day — for seniors that day was May 31. And assigned they were — along with teachers who were out of classes because their students were seniors. The group spread orange rocks between bushes in front of the school, cleaned up the ground, and tidied up the huge ‘84 they had painted on the roof the band room. It wasn’t a traditional school day, but the skippers did check in and accomplished some maintenance tasks. They paid the conse- quences. EYEING HIS CLASSMATES who circled the school to watch the yard crew at work is Brian Remmick Dale Nixdorf apparent- ly decided to keep his nose to the grind stone and get done. the job ‘The class of 84 dared WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE SENIOR CLASS and her good friend, Cheryl Hein, Theresa Woodard made her way across the stage to accept her diploma. The class of '84 stood to applaud in shocked amazement at the classmate they had never seen leave her wheelchair. Their applause was joined by that of the some 6,000 graduation guests who also gave Theresa’s bravery a standing ovation. “The class of l84 is great because they dared to take risks,” Jamie Alton, student body president, told his classmates at the June 5 commencement exercises. Little did Alton know that one of the biggest risks by a graduate would be taken a few minutes after his address. “You’ll have a heart attack if you try it at Metra in front of all those people,” Theresa Woodard’s doctor had told here. But she was determined and, shortly before her name was called to receive her diploma, she was helped out of the wheelchair in which she has spent her 18 years, rested her frail arms on crut- ches, and started across the stage. Assisted only marginally be a good friend, Cheryl Hein, Theresa, who had never walked unassisted, struggled to the podium and accepted her diploma. At that moment, the petite blonde’s legs seemed to crumble from under her, but she lifted herself up and continued to the edge of the stage where she was assisted to her wheelchair once again. When Duane Alhgren, dean, called the next graduate’s name, his voice cracked, and Margaret Weissman, dean, said the following day, “1 looked down at my list of graduates and couldn’t read a name.” Hers were not the only tears in the au dience that night. Theresa’s risk was included in the Billings Gazette coverage of graduation, as was the above photo of her. It sparked letters to the editor and certainly, no one who attended the ceremonies, 220 will ever forget that risk. Alton’s farewell address dealt with additional risks that one must take to succeed in life. While senior class president Darrell Kautz stressed in his introduction that the ceremony “marks the end of four years of high school, not the end of life.” Kautz said the ceremony should not have an air of sadness but rather of joy. He quoted Dicken’s Tale of Two Cities: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,” but noted that the quote does not end there...“It was the age of wisdom, and the age of foolishness — we were young and had everything before us.” “And we do,” Kautz continued, “Change is necessary to a healthy psyche - without change ideas tend to stagnate. Embrace change, adapt.” Kautz also introduced Julie Brown, a 1973 BSHS graduate who will be running in the first women’s marathon event in the Los Angeles Olympics. Brown passed to the graduates her favorite quote: “The race doesn’t always go to the swift, but to those who go on running.” Brown’s message had a special meaning to many graduates, but especially to her little sister, Becky, who was among the ‘84 class. David Flack, who, along with Alton and Liz Thompson, tallied a perfect grade point average, presented the invocation. Kody Partridge closed the ceremonies with benediction and graduates exited to strains of “Hail” from the BSHS band and the popping of firecrackers. I to take risks’ t EN EAGER ANTICIPATION of receiving his diploma, David Gormley twists the strings of his honors cord while listening to the guest speakers. Carolyn Geiger and Renee Frasch were con- centrating on the words of Fred W. Reed, professor of sociology at the University of Montana who told seniors to ”be aware of your rights as citizens.” Julie Brown, sister of graduate Becky Brown, and Olympics marathon runner, also addressed the class. IN A MORE SERIOUS MANNER than usual, Senior Class Presi- dent Darrell Kautz gives last words of encouragement to his fellow classmates. Kautz also introduced the guest speakers. GOING OUT WITH PUNK STYLE, Rhonda Lynch shows her ’’shades’ and a big smile on graduation night. The 599 graduates met in Metra basement to lineup for the processional played by BSHS band.

The purpose of the Senior messages were to add a little spice to the usually overlooked Ad Section. They also helped to personalize our Yearbook. Letters were sent out in November of 1983 to all of the Senior's parents. The cost of the messages were $12. They con- sist of any picture of a Senior student, not necessarily a senior picture, and a greeting from the message purchaser, usually the student’s family. The response the Yearbook received was positive. A total of 22 messages were purchased. Hopefully these messages will start a new tradition for Seniors and more will be purchased in following years.

In a message to the seniors, Rickard said: “Like all classes it had its share of academic, athletic and activity honors; unlike all classes the manner in which it approached school was straight forward and positive. I feel that it leaves a legacy by which to measure other classes.” Who were the stars of the class of ‘84? The ones who didn’t leave their success to luck but dared to take the risks?

In the winter he’s on the ice with a hockey stick, and when the ice melts, he skates in the halls of BSHS on special roller skates with wheels down the middle of the shoe to give the balance of ice skates. Danny rides a surf board when he gets to California to visit relatives, but in Montana, a skate board is the next best thing. The junior student’s hobbies combined last spring to win him first place in the Mon- tana Magic’s hockey photo contest. Instead of a trip with the Magic, Danny opted for $400.

Thank 251 TH€ LUCKY ON£9 The 1984 Bronc yearbook was printed by Walsworth Publishing Company, Marceline, Missouri. Ms. Cindy Gaunt was the inplant con- sultant and sales representatives were Don and Mike Merback of Casper, Wyoming, who made monthly visits to BSHS to work hand-in-hand with yearbook journalists. Headline styles varied throughout the book. The introductory pages and pep and booster pages were done in English Times bold with special let- tering by Pam Gregg, senior staffer. Brophy Script was used for the divi- sion pages. Mini-Mag heads were Garamond extra bold and the academic section was done in Souvenir extra bold. Futura was used on sports pages and the senior portrait pages. Junior pages were done in American Classic and sophomore section was Helios COLOPHON bold. Club pages were Trump Mediaeval Roman. Brush, Bookman Swash, and American Typewriter, all decorative types faces, were used in performing arts, royalty, and senior sections respectively. Featurettes in the index section were printed in Busorama. Body copy was 10 point English Times with 9 point English Times bold for caption which featured all capital letter lead-ins. At the end of the school year the staff was forces to change typesetters and could not locate English Times 9 point bold in the city of Billings. Thus corrected captions and the indexing was set in Century Schoolbook. The majority of type was set by the Instructional Materials Center of Yellowstone County School District No. 2. Special headlines were done by line-O-Type and Action Type. Econo Print did the last of the 10 pt body copy and Action Type set the index, extra captions and headlines. The Lucky 1984” cover was design- ed by senior Ross Anderson. The cover is premium embossed sturdite with hot foil in three colors. Warren double-coated e nel c pound stock was used thro 5 m e book. All photogra, w? he exception of dominate p o ge 220, was done by stude o aphers. The photo on page npliments of the Billings Ga .3 Grider took all division pa nt photos ex- cept the acade .0 which was done by Pete tJ an d the sports section page, d by Danny Jiles. Jiles was responsible for all varsity basketball action shots as well as photos of the gr aduation ceremonies. Duncan did all photos on the last senior section page. Group photos were done by Tippet Studio. 252 Bronc I JUST CdN’T LONG WITHOUT WHIG... It was mid June. A couple of staffers, and I were sitting in our adviser’s basement look- ing at a stack of pages ready to mail and I said, I think I’m going to cry.” As I finished my third yearbook, second as gc or bought of all the times I’ve wanted t usv iit and let someone else have the s and added pressures. I compare s to all the fun times I’ve had with nd our adviser Judy Cole and I can these times out weigh the bad by en a second chance, I would not iy differently. now where to even start thanking here were so many people that this b ok ould not be possible without. But, here goes: First of all to all the seniors who cared enough about this book to return after they graduated to help put on finishing touches. To Schroeder and Ohnstad, the Carol team, for all the efforts you put into the division pages, gate fold, and introductory pages. You might not realize it, but you completed forty plus pages and your team work was a great success. Jackie Schanz who as a first year staffer did a tremendous job. She not only completed her pages, but took on others as well. Kathy Schmalz who did the Senior section almost single handedly and also took on ex- tra pages towards the end. Kathy Fitzgerald who joined at semester and became an invaluable staff member. Pam Gregg for your creativity on those pages for which we ran out of ideas. We could count on you for something new and dif- ferent. I would especially like to thank Pete Duncan for returning when school was out and printing a multitude of last minute pic- tures. He put up with taking orders from a bunch of girls and did an excellent job for a sophomore with a half year’s experience. Most of all I would like to thank my adviser and friend Judy Cole, who stuck it out with us and showed she cared enough to keep us going. It could not have been done without you. In closing I would like to thank Mark and Steve Tippet Studio for running back and forth to take group photos after school. Tim Dalbec and Jo Schlekwey for providing graphics where photos would not do. Thanks to Chris Grider, John Graf, SheLLie Kuntz, Danny Jiles, and Shannon Frank, who at- tended after school events to make sure they were captured on film. Thanks also to LMC, Action Type and Econo Print. The book is finally complete and I have the same feelings I experienced at Graduation — happy or sad, I am not sure. Michelle Zartman 1984 Bronc Editor Thank 253 iu s wem It is probably true that no two people have the same feelings about their graduation from high school. Maybe this is because it happens so quickly. Sure, some people start contemplating the event in the fourth grade, but the majority of us don’t realize what’s happening to us until THE BIG NIGHT. To anyone who has not yet experienced the gradua- tion ritual, this statement must sound a' little far- fetched. How can you possibly not realize what’s going on when you’ve been talking nonstop about getting out high school? How can you not finally believe that it’s really going to happen when the congratulatory cards, with checks enclosed, start rolling in? When relatives and friends arrived in crowds for the pre-ceremony celebration, your dear grandmother relaying to each and every guest the creative things you could do with macaroni salad at the tender age of four. You’re so grown up now.” They all say, in voices proud but a little sad. How ever did you get this far?” some of you are wondering, If you don’t understand these things?” And that’s probably what most of us were saying to ourselves that night as we waited in the basement of Metra. How did we get throu no years? The classes that frustrated us? The h -r t t had to be kicked twice and thumped on bei it v Id be pried open? And what about the teacher who wouldn’t tolerate more than two tardies, even though you explained about your stubborn locker up in the comer of third floor. How did we survive the formals we didn’t get asked to, and for that matter, how did we survive the for- mals we reluctantly attended, wishing the whole time we would have stayed home and watched Love Boat.” Suddenly, it’s a reality. The band starts, and there is no more time for reflecting. THIS IS IT. This is the end of the road, anyway, and although it is sad to leave all these familiar people, there is something about the ceremony that is a relief. As we threw those caps into the air, we started a whole new part of our lives. A part that will surely be more exciting and rewarding than the part of our lives that we left behind, because it’s our own to do with as we choose. We had a lot of help along the way, and now have an opportunity to repay those who gave so much to us. — Pam Gregg, Class of ’84. w, ITH HIGH HOPES, the class of ’84 watches their mortar boards sail into the heights of Metra. 'These were the best of times. These were the worst of times.” This was our lucky year! 254 Bronc mWA. LS WORTH PUBLISHING COMPANY
