A I ors sh their rou ' 'Annie,' Bush, Santa brighten year By Eugene Phillips t was a year of firsts and things unique for Blue Springs High School. It was a year filled with happi- ness and hard times, and with many moments to remember. It was the year when Vice Pres. George Bush visited, bringing with him Gov. Kit Bond and his whole entourage. Students, teachers, parents and people from all across the United States will remember the national coverage this gained Blue Springs. And the people who were there will always remember the Secret Service checks and Bush's rally to support the Republican can- didates. It was the year when Annie Get Your Gun first appeared in production at the Civic Center. Seniors Sally Ries, John Leavell, Paul Adkins and junior Kris Kelly starred to make the production come off. Sally, Annie Oakley, sang her way from the hills and all around the world, all the while wanting only the love and atten- tion of John, Frank Butler. Paul and Kris, Charlie Davenport and Dolly Tate, combined their efforts to help Frank and Annie's dreams come true. It was the year when Chamber Choir traveled to the Tan-Tar-A resort at Lake of the Ozarks to sing at the Missouri Music Educators Association annual meet- ing in January. Dr. Gale Bartow also went along as the keynote speaker for the meeting. The choir enjoyed a standing ovation as they finished their number. It was also the year when Dr. Bartow was elected president of the American Association of School Admin- istrators, when the cross country team took first at the state, and it was the year when Blue Springs moved from a 4A to a 5A school district for sporting events. It was a year that will always be remembered as a year full of many moments in time. ...ff. 4, ,W V. , .X .-.Yu ,V Photos by Mark Fanara t n 4 -':J'sz-Baal A moment in time - Anera...

A moment in life igh school years are but a blink of an eye i X in the total history of the universe. These years are hardly more in a perscm's lifetime. But what years they are! lt is growing up, moving from teen ,to adult, making 'friends andfhaving that special person to share your furytimes and your sorrows. It is learning with'thatssp.ecial teacher that influenced your life.,It is dating and having fun around town with boyfriends or girlfriends of the moment. lt is cheering for sports until your v ice cracks. It is going to assemblies and stomping on the risers. It is yelling for school spirit to support your class, school or friends. gg gggg ' Those high school years are trying and fun, 'boring and thrilling, tough and easy, yet they will be remembered by all. They mean nothing to anyone else, but to those who are here, they are special moments in time. Cheerleaders welcome the varsity 'football team with high spirits and balloons before the 'homecoming game. , g g 1 Area offers lakes, beauty, fun By Eugene Phillips tudents were always looking for new activities to take up their spare time. Many ventured outside Blue Springs to nearby Kansas City or Independ- ence looking for new pastimes. For those who were looking for nice places to eat, shop or just look around the city offered much. Independence Center and the Blue Ridge Mall con- tained both shopping areas and theaters for the stu- dents to enjoy. For those who were looking for something more ritzy, or those wanting to venture farther from home, Crown Center and the Country Club Plaza offered both entertainment and fine dining. Students wanting to shop could explore the newly opened Saks Fifth Avenue, or shop some of the other, smaller Plaza stores. ' Crown Center offered shopping and a newly remodeled area with stores and restaurants called the Heartland. On the hotel side of the Center, one could view the waterfall and colorful lobby.

Sales for many items were conducted sometime during the school day and later. Candy bars, M 8: M's, glasses, t-shirts, candles, Christmas ornaments, spirit buttons -- name it and some organization or class probably sold it. Special weeks added to the fun of the year during the day. Spirit Week in the fall and KISS CKeep In School Spiritl Week in January were two. It may have meant a crazy assembly, unusual dress, a morning drum line or a dance. add to days At other times days may have been brightened by the band marching through the buildings, students caroling before school around the school Christmas tree outside, by the Wildcat fans cheering at the big Sep- tember stadium assembly or the matinee school day musical presentation. Full-length films in classes, guest speakers, spe- cial visits, videos, fun projects and other items made each day different.

By Eugene Phillips omecoming - for many it means a return to the old town and school they knew so well, but for many others it simply meant funtimes. From the parade and game, to the dance and royalty, homecoming was a time for gaiety and reunion. . In 1982, the parade float competition was more diversi- fied than it had been in the past. There were four areas of judging: theme, construction, originality and overall. The theme, Fantasy, was carried out in each of the class floats: the sophomores Pointed the Way to Victory, with their float, and took the prize for originality, the juniors enacted the Per- fect Fantasy, which won the theme and overall prizes, the seniors looked Somewhere over the rainbow, and took the prize for construction. , After the frolic and merriment of the parade, the game was somewhat of a letdown as the Winnetonka Griffins defeated the Wildcats, 10 to 7. Traditionally, the homecoming queen and princesses were crowned during halftime at the game. Senior Suzy Ries fcontinued on p. 141 , -, , N , ,,, . , K - . , V V .. f- . . 1 ,Ag g ,- f.

This is the kind of planning and work involved in making graduation exercises for over 500 students come off successfully. As is tradition at Blue Springs High School, Baccalaureate was held the Sunday before Commencement. The Baccalaureate services were conduct- ed in the gym because rain the night before had the field muddy on Sunday, May 22. Commencement was held on Fri- day, May 27, at 7:30 p.m. The senior class and choir met at the RLDS Aud- itorium at 1 p.m. for practice. fljufing practice, the seniors were briefed on how the ceremony would run, and were introduced to the speakers, photogra- phers, and other people involved in the service. The Commencement service start- ed with a welcoming speech by Dr. Gale Bartow, superintendent. After the welcoming, Dr. Bartow introduced John Connole and Tim Weatherspoon, who the senior class had elected to speak. John, who spoke first, talked of dreams and how they affect one's life. He explained that if one sets his goals just a little higher than he expects to reach, and continues to work toward them, he will achieve them. Tim spoke of how friendly everyone was when he moved to Blue Springs only a year and a half before. He talked about how through this spirit of friendliness and goodwill, the class of 1983 could and would achieve their goals. Next on the program was some special music. The Combined choirs sang Canto of Aspiration by Eugene Butler. It was directed by Mr. Dennis Tuggle and the organist was Mr. Rod- ney Giles from the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Later Dav Saints. l l l 1 8X Graduation .J-I ,Q 5 fff r X ,.,jW The choir sings during the 1983 graduation, top left.

Auditorium, Independence Dr. Robert Blaine presented the class just before Mrs. Geri Choate, School Board President, and Mr. Mike Leap, School Board Vice President, presented the diplomas. This was the first year Blue Springs had used a two- line approach for presenting the diplo- mas. Instead of using just one side of the stage, a line of seniors came from each side, thus cutting the presentation time almost in half. After all the seniors had their di- plomas, M'lissa Barnes played a rendi- tion of the Alma Mater, and the senior class sang. The invocation for the service was given by Rev. J.A. Christenson of the RLDS, and the benediction was given by Rev. Gene Barnes of the Woods Chapel United Methodist Church. The senior class chose 12 faculty members as representatives to walk with them. Mr. John Allen, Mr. J.W. Daily, Miss Betsy Hall, Mr. Gil Hanlin, Mr. Tom McSparren, Mrs. Debbie Pre- moe, Mrs. Wanda Sharpe, Mrs. Eilene Spears, Mr. Roy Stephenson, Mr. Ken Vance, and Mrs. Linda White, along with the principals and other adminis- trators participated.

Preparations began weeks earlier as the guys ordered their tuxedos at Independence Center, Randall's, Sir Knight and other stores. Several wore their tuxedos to school as advertising for the businesses. The most promi- nent colors were silver, black with a contrasting color, white and pastels. Girls shopped for their dresses at Independence Center, Blue Ridge and Bannister Malls, Country Club Plaza and Crown Center. A few girls either made their dresses or had them made. Almost every girl wore a long dress of pastel, but a few were red, white or black. Sheer hoop skirts proved popu- lar with most dresses made of tafetta or lace. Tickets were sold at school a week before the dance for S10 a couple. Bal- loting was also done ahead of time for king and queen. A few couples arrived at the prom in limousines. Upon arrival, seniors were presented with souvenir glasses. Dancing lasted from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m., with music by Sound Dynamics. z f , f X .zzz 20X Prom Crowned king and queen during the evening were Pat Griffith and Mar- cia Kester, both seniors. Although-some couples ate dinner before prom, most dined afterward at restaurants such as Skies at the top of the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Top of the Crown in Crown Center, Plaza III, and Stephenson's. A few couples ate dinner at home,'prepared by their parents. After prom some students took carriage rides through the Country Club Plaza. Post-prom parties were also held.

Hard practice started for the girls on Sept. 27 and ended Oct. 13. They were coached every Monday and Wed- nesday by Chuck Cole, Bret Link, Kev- in O'Neill and Bret Whetstone for the juniors. The senior girls were coached by Todd Foster, Rick Nixon, Jeff Owens and Dave Polich. On Saturday, Oct. 16 at 2:30 p.m., the girls were introduced to the parents and students in the stands at the Blue Springs football stadium. The seniors started out with -the ball and ended up ' ' juniors in annual powder puff with 51 points and the juniors with none. The past two years only one touch- down has been scored. Two years be- fore that the score was tied. Most of the seniors' touchdowns this year were made by interceptions by Missy Mich- ael. At halftime the cheerleaders enter- tained the crowd by reciting some cheers they made up and by doing a comical skit of the band. The cheerleaders for the juniors were Coy Butner, Tim Cox, Brett Hol- liday, Steve Howard, Luke Ungashick and Danny Westervelt. To represent the seniors were John Connole, David Davis, Todd Maxwell, Craig Miller and Steve Shewmaker. -4-.nv mg .,.,..L.. At the end of the game the seniors and juniors met in the middle of the field and shook hands. They kind of seemed to know what they were doing, said Gina Sapu- to, junor, more than the juniors did. It was really fun, said Leticia Berg, junior. If we would have had a little bit better players, said Sharra Reed, jun- ior, we could have done better. Referring to the cheerleaders, Steve Fanara, junior said, They were the best part of the game when they performed their half time show.

One of these, Annie Get Your Gun, was made immortal by the Rodgers and Hammerstein production starring Ethel Merman as Annie. The Blue Springs High School production of the musical may not have had the splendor of the Broadway production, but the enthus- iasm of the actors made up for it. It was a fun and interesting char- acter to pursue. Overall, it was an exciting production because we had such a large scope of talent, said sen- ior John Leavell, or Frank Butler in the play. There were four main leads in the play. Sally Ries, senior, played Annie Oakley, John played Frank Butler, Paul Adkins, senior, played Charlie Daven- port, and Kris Kelly, junior, played Dol- ly Tate. There were also many other characters in the production, the total cast was made up of about 60 people. It was directed by Ms. Gaye Warnock and Mr. Dennis Tuggle, The auditions were phenomenal, said Ms. Warnock. We used a lot of talent, and there was lots left. We both considered it a challenge? The play is about a hillbilly tomboy who shoots well. She enters a shooting contest with Frank Butler when the wild west show he stars in comes to town. Her talent is discovered by Char- lie Davenport, who hires her for the show. Frank refuses to let her do any- thing in the show because he is afraid to be beaten by a woman. Eventually, they fall in love and decide to get mar- ried and quit competing. The play was performed on Nov. 18, 19 and 20, 1982. The first perfor- mance was held for BSHS faculty only, and a matinee was held for the stu- dents during second, third and fourth hours on Nov. 19. Annie Get Your Gun was a me- morable experience for all those involv- ed. It was one of the best times of my senior yearf' said Jennifer Heeter, sen- ior. 24X Musical l Opposite page: Mya Treat played violin in the pit orchestra, top left.

I Drama, one-act, children's play presented By Mary Ann Rehkow ights, camera, action This year there were several produc- tions presented by the high school drama and music departments. The fall musical, Annie Get Your Gun, the one-act play, I-liss the Villi- an, the spring play, Our Town, and several children's theater productions highlighted the year. The largest production of the year was Annie Get Your Gun, which starred Sally Ries as Annie and John Leavell as Frank Butler. The Irving Ber- lin musical was direct by both Mrs. Gaye Warnock and Mr. Dennis Tug- gle. Over 60 students from the drama, vocal and instrumental music depart- ment were involved in the play. There are always eight hard weeks of preparation with the students. But I spend more time planning and preparing for the play, said Mrs. War- nock. The spring play was the second largest production of the year, yet it involved only the drama department. Our Town, starred Mike Pozychi, Kris Kelly and Paul Adkins, and was directed by Mrs. Warnock. This year's plays were costly in both sorrows and hard work, said Mrs. Warnock. When it got down to learning lines and putting the perfor- mance together, this was what got the job done. The other major production for performance was the one-act, Hiss the Villian, which starred Doug Gos- sett. The play is put together each win- ter for the state competition at War- rensburg.

School playsf2 7 School sales high as clubs sell candy, cheese, A By Pam I-larvell nything from candy bars to piz- zas, cheese and sausage to can- dles and stuffed animals were sold by different clubs and groups all through the year. Many groups sold candy to raise money for various reasons such as buy- ing letters to raising money for a trip. Dr. Dennis Littrell does think there are too many sales, but every year he tries to limit them and every year he fails. He said he just can't turn the sponsors down when they come in and say they really do need the money. Some of the groups who sold fund raising items were DECA, FBLA, AFS, FTA, Pep Club, athletic and musical groups. Ms. Tracy Creech, the pep club adviser, said they cleared about 31,700 selling Nestle's candy bars. Pep club needed the money for such operating expenses as letters, dances and so that they can do things for the teams. AFS made about 34,000 selling Nestle candy bars. They raised the money to send the AFS students back home and help next year's AFS stu- dents get over here. The band, color guard and drill team sold Easter bunny candy to raise money to go to Dallas next year for the Cotton Bowl. Some of the students and teachers feel that sales are good, but some feel prices are too high. Candy is good to eat in class but too expensive, said Jeff Stoneking. You get addicted to them, said Dawna Johnson. I think it's good to get students to 28fScl1ool sales V x 7 l.f'f,5YW' I M.. 53950 , l mgygmmwm everything promote and get involved in school spirit, said Becky Dull. Candy sales are good as long as they don't interrupt classes, and stu- dents don't sit there and eat during class, said Mrs. Molly Clemons. Candy bars sell the most, but sales are a big hasslef' said Ms. Tracy Creech. Sales are good, overall, it seems candy bars are the big sellers and the students like to know that the candy bars are there to comfort their hunger pains. s Opposite page: Grad-a-grams are sold by Debbie Salem to benefit the political science club in May, top.

The jobs range from fast food places to pumping gas. I need the moneyto fix my car, said John Smith, who works at Zarda Barbecue. That seemed to be one of the more popular reasons to work. Some, like Brad Korn, just work at home, cleaning the house and doing other odd jobs.

It seems that many students, if not working already, are at least looking for a job. It's not easy to find onef' Brian Wilson, a sophomore, said. Everyone is looking for a job so mostly the older people with more experience get these jobs first. The most common job seemed to be the fast food business. It's easier to get a job at a fast food place because people are con- stantly quitting, and they seem to al- ways need help, Laura Heurmann, a junior, said. She works at Duff's. But sometimes work interferes with homework and other activities. Kim Barthelmus, a junior, said, I used to work at York Steak House, but the hours messed up my grades and home- work, so I had to quit. Some parents make their children quit jobs because of grades. My mom and dad both told me that if my grades fell, I'd have to quit my job, Tracy Pullian, a junior, said. She formerly worked at lVIcDonald's on 40 Highway. Some students do manage to hold up grades and hold a job at the same time, thus earning a little extra money. l 30 Jobs Some students do manage to hold up grades and hold a job at the same time, thus earning a little extra money.

The idea of dinner for most teen- agers is a stop at McDonald's or Wen- dy's for a burger. Students active in school sports are usually kept after school for practice and may not have time for dinner at home. Others have jobs running through the family dinner hour. Where is the favorite place to eat when one has the munchies? Many BSI-IS students prefer Taco Bell or McDonald's. In an informal survey at school of sophomores, juniors and seniors, stu- dents were asked what they liked to eat, where they liked to eat, which establishment had the best service and which place was the cleanest. Although Taco Bell and McDon- ald's seem to be in a close race for the favorite place to eat, Taco Bell has the edge. Fun House seemed to be the least favorite. In service, McDonald's came out on top. Wendy's, Taco Bell, McDonald's and I-lardee's were all given high ratings on cleanliness. On the average, most of the stu- dents go out to eat three or four times BSHS students a week. But what about lunch? Students have it on the BSHS campus where fast food is also popular. Seven out of 10 students surveyed said they eat lunch from the school's fast food line. Items served in the snack bar lfast foodj area include hamburgers, new bacon! tomato burgers, fries, ice cream, taco and regular salads, chips, pork tenderloins, fish and chicken sand- wiches, cold sandwiches, fruit, burri- tos, pizza and fruit juice. With fast foods becoming as popu- lar as they are, who knows, one may be able to order, sit down and eat a seven- course meal in five minutes.

Fast food 33 Survey shows most students earn, spend, save By Shelly Morlang ost of the students at the Blue Springs High School have some type of a job, either part- time or fulltime. From a survey taken by about 300 students, the following statistics were found: 0 62 percent of the senior, 39 per- cent of the junior, and 41 percent of the sophomore females have a parttime job. 34f Consumerism l 0 67 percent of the senior, 61 per- cent ofthe junior, and 57 percent of the sophomore males have a parttime job. 0 Seniors and juniors average 16 to 25 hours per week, while sopho- mores work 9 to 15 hours per week. The three main items that high school girls spend their money on are cars, food and clothing. On the other hand, guys spend their money mostly on cars, but also spend money on food. A few of the students said they bought computers as large expendi- tures. Most girls spend their money at Independence Center followed by Blue Springs, while guys tend to spend their money in Blue Springs followed by the Independence Center. The girls seem to support school fund-raising activities more by spend- ing from S20 to S50 a year, and the guys seem to spend from S10 to S30 on school. Money students earn weekly 45'X1 1 Male 40?

Not only does school jewelry show class pride, it shows school spirit. The type of class ring that is bought the junior year is a hard deci- sion to make. The prices range widely. How much the ring costs depends on what all the student wants on the ring. The rings can be inscribed with names or initials on the inside or on the out- side of the ring. Besides the name of the school and the year of graduation students can choose to have a club insignia on the side of the ring. A popu- la-rfeature that is chosen is the wildcat head or the paw print. Class rings can be either gold or silver, plain or elabo- rate, students rings usually reflect their personality. The prices of the class rings can range anywhere from S75 to 3200. Next to a junior's pride in owning a class ring is a senior's pride in wearing a senior key. Senior keys come in many varieties: necklaces, bracelets and key chains. These senior keys sym- bolize the act of unlocking the doors of the school and entering another life, a life of freedom, adulthood, or whatever a student should choose. A favorite to hang on a rear view mirror is a senior tassle. Many seniors buy a tassle to keep for their very own, for their senior book, car and so on. Among the traditional class arti- cles are t-shirts and novelty pins and earrings that display the year of gra- duation. Nlyffcv X X ,,,,,s 4+ K. .

Clothes of all styles were seen. The tuxedo look was very popular. The relaxed version of the tuxedo was seen not only on guys but on girls, too. The colors black and white were dominant in women's clothing as the season turn- ed cooler. Bow ties were very popular with the girls also, as were knit ties tied like a man's, and the satin tie tied in a bow to dress up a plain oxford. As winter approached and sweat- ers were brought out of storage, one 38 Fashion could see many types of shirts to ac- company the sweaters. There was the traditional button down oxford with an occasional tie, and the ever-increasing popular turtle-neck. The turtle-necks came in many prints, from small sail- boats to little hearts. With the coming of Spring, spirits not only became brighter, so did colors. Brilliant yellows, reds, blues, and greens were in abundance. Still popular was the new wave look. Hair was cropped on top and left long in the back. However, this new wave look was more refined with head- bands, flat-heeled ankle boots and bag- .. ,,......,, K w gy pants. A new rage that occurred in 1982- 83 was the Valley Girl mode of dress. This outfit included headbands, metal- lic earrings, mini-skirts, anklet socks, ballerina shoes and feathered haircuts. The preppy look was still very strong at BSHS this year. It was still fashionable to wear a polo shirt and an oxford over it with jeans and flat shoes. To get an idea of what was in fashion in the year 1982-83, all one had to do was to look in the halls, commons and classrooms of BSI-IS. K, f 4 5 f , 1. M, .

Fashion 3 9 Year brings chaos, strikes, yet victories here, By Romm Jackson utside the boundaries of the high school and beyond the city limits of Blue Springs, the world seemed rather bleam in the 1982- 83 school year. The nation was shocked and terri- fied by the senseless Tylenol poisoning case. Fear that such an event might trigger imitation killers has yet to sub- side. The independent truckers' strike threatened food shortages and was marred with violence. Riots in Miami wrecked havoc as did the 6.5 earth- quake in California. The bombing of the U.S. embassy in Beruit brought the crisis in foreign countries close to home. In the midst of this turmoil, Ameri- ca's favorite escape from reality lost one of its best shows. After 13 years, the members of M 'A S 'H closed the set for the final time. Monday may never be the same. Unemployment topping 10 per cent counteracted the lower inflation and interest rates, and unemployment brought part of the nation's problems to the city where members of the com- munity were laid off or released. Even the high school campus wasn't safe from trouble as vandals reached unprecedented heights of des- truction to the building and shrubbery. Students, however, were not impress- ed. Over one third of the school signed a petition denouncing the vandals and their destruction. The year was not all bad in spite of the vandalism. Proposition C passed in the general election, saving many of the extra-curricular activities at the school. Five foreign exchange students spent their year at Blue Springs. Class repre- sentatives were elected to improve communication between the students, senate and faculty. In spite of the bad economy, the students still donated over 33,000 to Opposite page: Sunglasses are ready to be worn for the summer, above left. David Netter gets his feet off the ground, right.

The young boys' swim team won the conference championship and placed fifth in state. The girls' basketball team had their best year ever, winning over 20 games and being ranked first in Mis- ouri 4-A for a time. Senior Lisa Besses a forward, was named first team, all- state as a result of her effort and skill. The wrestling team led by the 98- pound state champion Darrin Davis placed fourth at state. And the cross country team paced by a third place finish by Scott Stetzler, brought home the state championship in 4-A cross country. 7 Photo by Kurtis Julian Year 's news! 41 Pep, educational and plain fun: assemblies By Debbie Ring he morale of the student body is boosted when the intercom an- nounces that an assembly will be held between second and third hour. These assemblies are always well at- tended by the student body consider- ing the school day's hour classes are shortened. There is a reason for these assem- blies, whichever kind, pep, educational, or just plain entertaining. The reason is to keep the school morale high and break the monotony of day after day in school. So, there are several kinds of as- semblies to appeal to the variety of students. The entertaining or pep as- semblies are probably the most com- monly used. At Blue Springs High School the first assembly was held out- side in the stadium to gain school spirit for the year's upcoming sports. Then, the holiday seasons were celebrated by bringing the student body together through an assembly. The drill team performed routines, cheerleaders per- formed skits, the band played, and teachers and principals participated in the fun. Then they were concluded with the singing of the school song, Blue Springs Alma Mater. With each student's arms clasped around each other, swaying back and forth, the as- sembly had brought a closeness felt between each of the students. Assemblies weren't always fun and games. There were also educational assemblies held. One of the education- al assemblies was the orientation to the sophomores. At this assembly, only sophomores attended and were wel- comed to the school. The slide show of Blue Springs High was shown. Another educational assembly was held for everyone. This was when a pri- son chaplain came and talked about crime and penalities. A student may think twice about commiting a crime after hearing that speaker. Assemblies are few and treasured, because with every one there is an experince or lesson that is not soon forgotten. 49 42fAs5eml2lies 7. is f wx fn . . . with each student's arms clasped around each other, swaying back and forth, the assembly had brought a closeness felt between each of the students.

Both types of dan- ces were liked by the students. After some of the basketball and football games, there were some casual dances with a disc jockey and it only cost a dollar to attend. A lot of students attended these dances because they were cheaper and they could go as they were after the game without changing clothes. There was also a 50's dance held in November, but not many students attended. The ones who did attend were dressed in big poodle skirts and bobbie socks. The guys wore T-shirts and greased their hair back. Of course, all that was played by the band was 50's music. The yearbook staff drew a receipt from the people who had pur- chased a yearbook and the one who had been drawn received a free year- book. The homecoming dance was held on Oct. 2. Most of the people wore dresses and suits. The theme of this dance was Fantasy. The homecom- ing queen was Suzy Ries. In December, the GPA fGirls Pay AID dance was brought together in the Herschel Neil Gymnasium. The theme was White Christmas. The Christ- mas King was Todd Foster. The Pep Club sponsored the Win- ter Sports Dance on Feb. 26. The theme was On the Wings of Love, and had unicorns and clouds as the surroundings.

There are meetings at lockers, the passing of y notes in class, plays, assemblies and count- less other things that go on. lt is hard to believe that thereyis a thing that exists called academics, even though it is that which is the reason we go to school, ' ' ,Academics is the heart of education, and it is 1i to-theestudents to learn this anatomy of knowl- e edge. Throughllanguage arts, fine arts, and practi- cal arts is found not only the names of the build- ings of the campus, but the key to unlock the future that succeeds graduation. Although aca- demics may be remembered as the teacher who got off the subject habitually or the one who was sharp off as a tack, it will always remain as the answers in the backof the mindg the essentials which construct the foundation that will be built upon. .

Driver ed teaches students about car insurance, drunk driving, visibility and everything else there is to know about the purchase, care and operating of any motor vehicle. Driving means taking on a tremen- dous responsibility, and it has to be treated as such. If one has taken driver ed, insurance will be lower in most cases. A girl will probably get an even lower rate. Another positive aspect of taking a driver ed class is the added fun of first time driving. lt's exciting, said Holly Post, a sophomore. Driving on the range at school is fun because it's just you and a friend. That makes me less nervous, Russell Sargent said. Driver ed is not just another cred- it. It is a class that could drastically change students' futures. bs.. 5OfDrwer ed Opposite page: Mr. Gordon Dryer is one of the driver ed teachers, top left.

What is counseling? Counseling is a department at this and most other schools. Blue Springs High School has four counselors who work with students of all three grades. They divide the alphabet, taking stu- dents with last names ending in their section: Mrs. Jo Ellen Lightle works with students A-D, Mr. Roy Stephen- son works with students E-K, Mr. Larry Moehle works with students L-Re and Mrs. Sonja Joline works with students Rh-Z. A counsellor's job is to listen to a student's problems, and give the stu- dent the best advice they can. Mr. Moehle said the most frequent prob- lems students are concerned about are college and grades, and personal crisis. At BSI-IS the four counselors handled many problems for students and other departments alike. In addi- tion to being available to talk with stu- dents about personal problems, they coordinated testing for seniors, helped with vo-tech, special education and homebound placement of students, and aided students in planning for college, the military and careers. The counselors could be respon- sible for keeping some would-be crimi- nals off the street, and for helping many other students move on to live success- ful adults lives. -lg at ,,. 0, W SZ!

It became more popular when it added the new classes of small engines and home maintenance which are taught by a new teacher, Mr. Dave Cook. The industrial arts department is a general area for the students who do not want to go to Ft. Osage classes, said Mr. John Jackson. In general woodworking, for in- stance, the students make a tool box and a jewelry box. The advanced wood- working students make a piece of furni- ture of their own design, Mr. Jackson said.

Osage program offers vocational classes By David Rose tudents who are uncertain about their future have ventured into the Ft. Osage Vocational-Tech nical School. The primary purpose of vocational education is to provide entry level skills to enter employment after completing the training program. A few of the programs offered at Ft. Osage are auto body repair, a course for persons interested in learn- ing to repair damaged vehicles, data processing, a program to provide the student for an entry-level scientific or business programing job or a computer operations position, and health occu- pations, one of the fastest growing groups of occupations in the country. Ninety percent of the students who go to Ft. Osage are in health occupations and data processing, Mr. Ray Stephenson, counselor, said. Students attend Ft. Osage one- half day and then go back to their home high school for half of the day.All vocational courses carry full credit to- ward high school graduation. A voca- tional certificate is awarded to students who meet the requirements of the pro- gram in which they are enrolled. 5 6X F t Osage The Ft. Osage school will assist the students in locating employment related to the vocational program com- pleted. Over half of the students at Ft. Osage will end up in a job, Mr. Ste- phenson said. In order to be enrolled at Ft. Osage, the student must meet some requirements, such as having 10 cred- its at the end of the year prior to entry, having a good attendance record and a grade point average of 2.0 QND. Also, the student must get favorable teacher recommendations from two academic classes. ' 'Ninety percent of the students who go to Ft. Osage are in health occupations and data processing,' Mr. Ray Stephenson, counselor, said. 6.9 Opposite page: Laura Sandy feeds paper into a processor at Ft. Osage, left.

No new teachers were added, but Mr. Ron Jenkins and Mr. Bob Gurney had student teachers for a majority of second semester. Miss Sisk fGurney'sl and Miss Randall CJenkin'sl contribut- ed quite a lot to the classes. I enjoyed having a student teach- er, but the kids are my responsibility. She may not have emphasized what I would have. You lose touch with your classes, said Mr. Jenkins. There were many ideas for this year, but most of the changes, addi- tions and subtractions will take place next year. Thousands of dollars are being spent on new microscopes and hope- fully a computer will be added to the new equipment for next .r year. We hope to use the computer in physiology to better explain the genetics in biology and physiology, said Mr. Jenkins. General science and Earth and universe won't be taught next year. We hope to get the computer and a new chemistry teacher. We are adding a class called ecology, said Mr. Jenkins. in 2332 H I if 3,7 .,,,,, q f-if ff.

The foreign language department says hello. The only thing new in the foreign language department this year was the new teacher, Mrs. Jan Stoll. She taught three classes of Spanish I and two classes of Spanish Il. Before Mrs. Stoll came to Blue Springs, she taught at Center and Lutheran High in Kansas City. The department was very glad that all of the classrooms were in the same QPJP general area, although Mrs. Stoll had one class in a math room. The department was also happy that the enrollment was higher than the previous year. For instance, Mrs. Julie Scott said, Last year I only had one class of French, and this year I have four. Miss Beth Roush, the department head, returned this year after a year in Germany. The department felt her trip strengthened them. One change the department would like to see is to place back in the cur- riculum a class called, Language for Everyone. The student would study French, Spanish and German for six weeks in the semester. The students would move from teacher to teacher. Another possible change would be new textbooks for Spanish. The depart- ment reviewed several texts. The group would also like to ex- pand German to the junior high. Mrs. Scott said, We would like to establish the tradition of taking a trip abroad to Europe. ,,,.. V. Opposite page: Mrs. DeAnn Abram teaches French III, IV and V, left.

According to Wan- da Sharpe, the head of the business department, there is going to be a new class. Survey of business, a semester class, will introduce sophomores to all the business courses. It will take the place of business math, clerical record keeping and business machines. We hope to add computer ac- counting to present accounting class- es, said Mrs. Sharpe. Then students will learn how to do accounting on computers. We are working for monitors Cvis- ual aidslj' said Mrs. Sharpe, which will go with typing classes and make it easi- er for students to find mistakes. General business is taught at the junior high, but not all the students can take it. We need something at high school, said Mrs. Sharpe. We need more preparation. Our goal is to pre- pare students for college, said Mrs. Sharpe. A lot of students take personal typing, a half-year course, not realizing shorthand, office procedures and secre- tarial practice require one full year of typing. We need to have seven hours of full-year typing, said Mrs. Sharpe. It will cut down on personal typing. Mrs. Sharpe feels students need a better introduction to the business courses while they are enrolling. Why take notehand or short- hand? said Mrs. Sharpe. Most stu- dents do not know the difference be- tween these classes. Notehand is a half-year class and is for personal use only. Shorthand is a full-year class and is for personal and business uses. After taking shorthand a student may take secretarial practice to further hisfher skills. ,WX , , 14 . f ,j.,zy,, if rm . C 'fjf' , i .

This program gives emphasis to preparation for the job of homemaking and dual roll responsibilities including opportunities for preparation for em- ployment in home ec-related occupa- tions, according to Mrs. Carolyn Hill, chairman of the department. By Jim Willard Many students take all courses offered in home economics as indicat- ed by enrollment, Mrs. Hill said. Many young men are active par- ticipants in most all the classes although there is limited participation in clothing and child care courses, said Mrs. Hill. The courses include contempor- ary living, intermediate foods, basic clothing, creative clothing, housing, family relations, consumerism, child de- velopment and child care. Many activities have been added to increase class popularity such as the mock weddings in the family relations classes which are for seniors and mar- ried students only and working with pre-schoolers three days a week. Although there are no scholar- ships in the home economics depart- ment now, it is hoped that this next fall the home ec department will produce a cookbook that will contain recipes of the home ec teachers. All profits might go toward a scholarship, Mrs. Hill said. l The home economics department is located in the PA building.

These changes have taken place in the English department. The changes were brought about by group discus- sion and consensus, said Martha Cockerell, junior English focus. The only changes were the addi- tion of advanced placement QAPD and sophomore focus, said Mrs. Cocke- rell. The English classes are now sopho- more survey and sophomore focus, junior practical, survey and focus, sen- ior English and advanced placement. The English program was compar- ed to other area high schools and Mrs. Cockerell said, Some schools have 'weighted courses' but we do not, al- though our school has full-year classes rather than semester. Eventually these harder classes will benefit the students. Courses offered in the English department are geared to meet students' individual needs. Col- lege preparatory students take sopho- more and junior focus, then senior Eng- lish or advanced placement their last year. Semester classes in reading, crea- tive writing, journalism and interper- sonal communications round out the curriculum offerings. There are 11 full- time staff members and one half-time teacher. The English department emphas- izes basic skills with a semester spent on grammar, writing and library re- search. Students approach literature in the upper track classes analytically, learning to analyze and compare liter- ary works. Classical and modern fic- tion novels and plays enrich students' knowledge, said Mrs. Marilyn Pittsen- barger. Our department is committed to challenging students to learn and to apply their abilities to the highest level of achievement, said Mrs. Pittsenbarg- er. s Opposite page: Tracy Glassford, junior, is hard at work doing her English, upper left.

English 67 Teenagers get into shepewith a little help By Tomi Roberts eeping fit and healthy is a nation- al trend. PE and health classes have been teaching students now. The PE classes are heading into lifetime sports and activities, said Mr. Bud Young, PE teacher. They offer classes that start one in recreational sports and classes for peo- ple who aren't in sports just to stay in shape and workout. The workout classes are really popular. The people not in sports or just between them really seem to like to workout and keep in shape, said Mr. Young. The department is thinking about adding an aerobic dance-type class. The cheerleading class is using it now, and they really like it. The classes aren't just for mon- keying around anymore, said Mr. Young. They are all more unified in what they are doing in each class, so more is getting done. The consistancy and unity has real- ly turned the classes around. The health classes are also looking toward the future. We have set up a functional health curriculum for our students. We are also teaching them preventive measures instead of simply after-the-fact methods, said Mr. Young. The classes are trying to teach things that will be both helpful now and later. Gne thing they are doing is teach- ing CPR. The students are actually becoming certified with the American Heart Association. They receive a card that says they know CPR. It lasts for a year then must be renewed. The next step will be a weight con- trol unit. We will figure a person's ideal weight with caliphers to help them learn to control their weight, said Mr. Young. The unit will teach all about nutri- tion and what certain types of food do to the body. The future is getting brighter for PE and health classes at Blue Springs High School.

PE'Healtl1! 69 s in many ways Supportive services help student By Cindy Wilson and June Watson ith all the attention focused on sports and extra-curricu- lar activities, some academic programs are forgotten. Supportive services at Blue Springs High School include the learning center, the EMR room, reading lab and the clinic. All are located on the second floor of the Lib- eral Arts Building. Students qualify for the programs on the basis of testing and individual evaluations by the group of four teach- ers and counselors. The learning center is designed to help those with average IQ's who are not working up to potential, said Mrs. Nancy Stevens, an instructor. Sixty students are in the learning center for one hour per day and can come in for extra help in their other classes. We can individualizef' Mrs. Stevens said. Students can work on the skills they really need. EMR stands for educably mentally retarded. Mrs. Joyce Vinson, instruc- tor, prefers that it be called the workf- study program. Twenty-one students are placed in jobs or technical schools that can help prepare them for the future. Mrs. Vinson feels the best as- pect of the program is the good jobs secured by the students, like bus aides and in food services. Throughout the year the clinic sees an average of 40 students per day with everything from skinned knees to emotional upsets, said Dottie Miller, health aide, who is a sociologyfpsy- chology major. Students are signed into the read- ing lab in the afternoon.

We are starting to utilize the public, said Mrs. Jones. I'm really proud of the students. They really like to get involved. If we are studying a certain subject, and they have something dealing with that sub- ject at home, then they will bring it in to talk about. The students seem to want to know more about what they are learning, she said. While studying a certain area, we show the students videos that relate to it. It's a lot easier to say to them, 'this is what is happeningf then they can see what it was like, said Mrs. Jones. When the students show their interest in learning more, it's great.

Social Studies 73 New A-V areal in media center, computer added By Donna Atterbury ibrary and media facilities chang- ed during the 1982-83 school year. Because of the report from the North Central Association evalua- tion in the spring of 1982, action was taken to improve the areas. The library had a budget of 330,499 for 1982-83, and that included funding the media center area with half of the money or about S15,250. The media center spent part of its share on such items as movie projectors, VTR's and television sets. We need dramatic improvements in equipment, materials, resources and special services to students, said Mr. Chuck Sears, who is in charge of the if f gg 9 r109MnwlW 74fLibrary, mgdia media area. This was his first year in that position. He aided teachers in ob- taining media materials. I'm a teacher's assistant, he added. A computer system was added to the area during the year which aided in record keeping and assisting with over- due books and materials. Actual space in the library will be increased when an addition to the Fine Arts QFAJ building is made in the near future. A bond referendum's passage during the winter made this possible. Another criticism of the North Central report was lack of staff in the library. We have all the staff we are going to get, said Prin. Dr. Robert 6' cn- Blaine. The student aides in the library are a tremendous help, but we need more adults, said Mrs. Kay Coen, librarian. Always an area of concern in any library is the problem of missing or stolen materials and books. Mrs. Coen said she has placed a security system in the library budget for the past three years, but hasn't received it. It would pay off in a couple of years, she said. Dr. Blaine said the system isn't abso- lutely flawless. Improvements have been -made this year in the library and media cen- ter. More are planned for the future. Actual space in the library will be increased when an addition to the Fine Arts KFAJ building is made in the future.

Mrs. Eilene Spears and Mr. Gary O'Shay agreed that this class was probably classes re-shuffled in math excluded from the department because of the course title and the looks of it. Complete math review and calcu- lus were added. Complete math review is a general review over basic math skills. Calculus is a college prep class. It was added by parents' requests. A new teacher was also added to the math staff. Mr. Mike Bolton taught geometry, Algebra I and calculus. For 1983-84, it is possible that the department will add basic algebra. This class would move at a slower pace and cover the book at a much slower rate. It is possible that math analysis will be re-instated even though the class was dropped the last two years due to insuf- ficient enrollment. It is also hoped that at least one new teacher will be added for next year. ,.,., . afar 1.24 95. 76fMatl4 11 ,f e A rss' Y r , f , fym '5 25,4 Q . Complete math review and calculus were added.

The Golden Regiment performed at the Music Bowl at Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg, plac- ing fifth, on Oct. 30. Drum major Eric Dooley said, The other bands were good. We did the best job we could. It was our best performance. for Cotton Bowl parade The band's attitude about not win- ning the Music Bowl was well received. They were happy for who won. They realize we have to work harder, Direc- tor Doug Watts said. The standings should have been differentg we did an excellent job, we made goals, we set and reached them, and that's what counts. We have many things against us, but the worst is size. That's our biggest drawback. If we get past that there is no stopping usli' Eric said. Four songs were played in the 11- minute half-time show in 1982. They were Georgia on My Mind, Aztec Fire, My Favorite Things, from the movie, Sound of Music, and Still by Lionel Richie.

Those words are the first thing one would hear in first hour concert band, the next is music. There are 75 students in the band which plays mostly typical concert music. One exception to this rule is a medley of REO Speedwagon songs. It's their favorite song, said Mr. Den- nis McClanahan, director. The concert band traveled to Fayette to compete in the contest there, where they received a H+, The band also performed at the Concert of Bands held in the gym each year. Mr. McClanahan said that the band had their problems, but made some major accomplishments to become even bet- ter musicians. One problem they have music- wise is that they are top heavy, they need more from the low brass section, said Mr. McClanahan. Another group of about the same size is the symphonic band. The group also meets first hour, but is under the direction of Mr. Doug Watts. The group received an I at both the Fayette and district music contests. The symphonic band appeared in the Concert of the Bands with the concert band, along with several other groups from both the junior high and Hall-McCarter. The group meets only in class and performs mostly classical and concert music. The kids like the songs, said Mr. Watts, but after getting them ready for contest, which takes them three to four weeks, they get tired of them. Jazz band plays for games, initiation ome of the classes at Blue Springs High School are a bit clif- ferent. Most classes have a cer- tain amount of money budgeted to them each year to buy supplies and other things the class requires, but few classes ever make money for the school. The jazz band, which meets third hour, sometimes receives dona- tions for some of the concerts they play. The band is a group of about 30 people who must audition in the spring before the year they play. The group plays for many different things around the school, but its main function is play- ing for all of the home basketball games. The band has also played for a NAIA basketball game, and for a Kings home game. Other than sports, the band has played for Dr. Gale Bartovv's initiation 84 jazz Richard Walker played bass for the jazz band, left. Jazz Band, front row: E. Dooley, C. Bjorland, J. Gieseke, J.

The band is different from the other bands at school because it gives us a chance to play different types of music and to perform on a more indi- vidual level, said Julie Sutton, drum- mer for the group. Pop choir - a chance to solo, sing pop By Eugene Phillips op choir, a small group of about 16 musicians, is one of the sec- ond semester activities for the music department. The group met after school one day each week for about an hour, working on popular music that the students chose themselves. My goal for the group was to give them freedom, said Mr. Dennis Tuggle, di- rector, freedom to sing the kind of music they wished to perform. Open auditions for the choir were held in January with the best perform- ers being chosen for the group. In addi- tion to the 16 singers, the choir had several accompanists: Pat Chambers played bass, Stacey Payne played drums, Richard Walker played guitar and Mr. Tuggle played keyboards. The pop choir performed many different pieces of music, in many dif- ferent musical styles. Mr. Tuggle said a medley of songs from the musical, Playin' Our Song and a medley of the Beatles' songs were among the favor- ites of the students. The three major types of music that the group worked on were show tunes, jazz and popular, such as the Beatles. Several different places invited the group to perform. One of the perfor- mances was for Dr. Gale Bartow's in- stallation as president of the American Association of School Administrators. Also, the choir sang at the Blue Springs Music Booster Ice Cream Social fund raiser, held in January, the annual jazz band! pop choir concert, on the Cham- ber!A Cappella Choir spring tour to the St. Louis area, and at the spring vocal concert held on May 9. The group gives individuals a chance to perform pop music of their choice, in solos, duets, or in small groups, said Mr. Tuggle. I just give them a form on which to show their talents.

The Chamber and A Cappella Choirs traveled and performed throughout Missouri, receiving high contest ratings and acclaim. The Chamber Choir was invited to perform at the Missouri Music Educa- tors Association annual meeting, which was held in January. The meetings were held at the Tan-Tar-A resort on the Lake of the Ozarks. According to Mr. Dennis Tuggle, vocal music direc- tor, it is a great honor to be asked to perform at Tan-Tar-A. The choir also sang at various malls in the area at Christmas time, took a spring tour with the A Cappella Choir, and received I ratings at both Fayette and district contests. This is an extremely visible group of music- ians, said Mr. Tuggle, with a very high group of standards. The A Cappella Choir also had an outstanding year, said Mr. Tuggle. The group received I ratings at the Fay- ette and district music contests, and toured the Columbia and St. Louis, MO, areas with the Chamber Choir. The choir received new performance robes to replace the old, worn ones in which it had performed the last few years. I think this year's choir is the fin- est group in the four years I have been here, said Mr. Tuggle. Last Christmas, both groups per- formed on the radio in 30-minute spots.

Two choirs end year on high note By Eugene Phillips he vocal music department at Blue Springs High School con- tains many different performing groups. Both the Chamber and A Cap- pella Choirs are well known in the school, yet two other groups, Girls' and Concert Choirs, are less well known. This year the girls' choir met in two sections, second and fifth hours, to accommodate the large number of par- ticipants. The group is the only non- audition choir at BSHS which performs. According to Mr. Dennis Tuggle, direc- tor, the purpose of the group is to pro- vide a good musical experience for those students interested in improving their musicianship. Concert Choir, as well as the girls' choir, performed at all four of the school concerts this year, and also at Baccalaureate and Commencement with the other choirs. Students in the class were auditioned, and studied a variety of types of musical literature, sight reading, improving tone quality and concentration within the group. Both groups worked to perform more and more difficult music as the year progressed, and, according to Mr. Tuggle, ended the year on a good note. I thought the choirs performed their best this year at the last fspringl concert. For the seniors, it was a very successful close to their musical year, said Mr. Tuggle. 411-7 Y Bach, Mozart become favorites for orchestra By Mya Treat very afternoon it happened. Ap- proximately 25 Blue Springs High School students sat down togeth- er, and with the help of Mr. Dennis McClanahan, played such favorites as Bach and Mozart. fit has been awhile since they were on the top 40 list.j Classical music may not be the average fare for most teenagers, but that does not seem to matter. I like rock'n'roll, but I also enjoy this classical music, said Rick Leavitt, junior.

Most of the BSHS students involv- ed in the orchestra have found it to be rewarding and helpful in their lives. Amanda Heinking, sophomore, has found that it has helped her in her running. It helps me to keep a steady beat.', Besides being rewarding and help- ful the orchestra students also enjoy it. Kristi Jackson, sophomore, expressed her feelings by saying, orchestra is cool. Karen Janin, sophomore, said, It's like one big family. Even if some- one doesn't feel comfortable perform- ing they always have support from their fellow orchestra members. There are still problems though. One which nearly everyone agreed upon was recognition. People don't really take it fthe orchestral seriously, said Natalie Heinking, senior. Debbie Misiorowski, sophomore, felt that another problem is that people don't practice enough. She said, They tap their feet and play open E's.,' Richard Woten, junior, felt there should be auditions for orchestra and that all the kids need to have private teachers. Mr. McClanahan, in his third year of directing the orchestra at BSHS, said, I think the orchestra is getting better each year. Adding that orches- tra was a fun class he said with a smile, We're going places. 'Mind's Eye' staff produces 40-page literary book By Tomi Roberts ow creative can a student body be? One way to find out is to look into its Mind's Eye. That is what Mrs. Connie Davis and her 33-member staff do. The two editors, Brian Asuncion and Tom Crat- es, along with Mrs. Davis, put together a book of the creative outpourings of Blue Springs High School. The book is Mind's Eye. They publish the best stories, poems, draw- ings and photos of the ones submitted. The Creative Writing Il courses are where most of the submissions come fromf' Mrs. Marilyn Pittsenbar- ger said, but anyone can submit, in- cluding the faculty. The names and submissions are numbered with corresponding num- bers, then the Creative Writing II class- es judge them. The scale is from one to five with one being the highest. Most of all of the one's and two's make it in, said Mrs. Pittsenbarger. Q The books are printed and on sale in early May. They are sold during lunch or from the English teachers.

A different kind of cover, personal ads, a die-cut endsheet and a modular style of layout make the book unique from other editions. We looked at several yearbook layout styles, and the staff spent a few days practicing and drawing, trying to come up with a good layout plan. They decided to try the panel or modular style, mainly because we felt we had many good pictures, Mrs. Molly Clemons, new adviser, said. -null 9.2! Campus Cadznce The staff also decided to use a four-color cover. The Blue Spings year- book has not had one for several years. A front endsheet die-cut was a completely new idea for the Campus Cadence, as was the selling of senior personal ads to parents. We made about S300 from the personal ads, Mrs. Clemons said, or enough to pay for the die-cut. I hope more parents will purchase the ads next year. Bylines were also added on many stories as were special bylines for par- ticularly good photos. Because yearbooks today are looking more and more like magazines, we thought the use of bylines, as in magazines, would be an extra reward for completed assignments, Mrs. Clemons added. A small staff of seven, which includ- ed three photographers, worked on the book first semester. In January three students were added from the first semester beginning yearbook class. Other writers contributed from sopho- more English focus class.

The Campus Crier is a bi-weekly newspaper put out by the advanced newswriting class. There are 14 papers yearly. This year, first semester, there were ,seven writers for the paper with supervisor, Miss Ruth Ann Graves. The editor-in-chief was Troy D. Wickman. There was also a staff of photographers who work for both yearbook and news- paper. When second semester began more staff members were added on the paper from the beginning newswriting class. The beginning newswriting class had a lot of people enthusiastic about newspaper writing, Miss Graves said. A summer camp was available to these students who are interested in journalism. The cost was S125 and the supervisor and journalism students were welcome to attend. The Summer T, 2 . . bi-weekly newsg staff attends workshop Media Workshop at the University of Missouri divides the journalism stu- dents into various groups and each write for a paper that is produced at the end of the workshop. Last year the Blue Springs journal- ism students were divided up into four groups. Two girls were in the beginning sessions and did basics, including learn- ing of the principles of writing. Two other girls were in advanced writing which talked about advanced tech- niques of writing. There was one pho- tographer and one other person who worked on the production of the paper. A workshop such as this gives an actu- al experience in how a paper is pro- duced. This experience did help some ad- vanced newswriting students with their writings for the Campus Crier this year. It fthe newspaper! was a bit more organized this year, said Miss Graves. There has been a magazine added in the Crier also. It is called Blurb mean- ing an advertisement or announcement, as on a book jacket. It is also used to break up gray areas to produce impact. It usually contained one topic such as Christmas, homecoming, graduation, etc. This year there were also new ways of making profits. Besides selling ads and personals there was the selling of Christmas ornaments to help raise money for the paper. The beginning newswriting classes made a lot of money selling ornaments, said Miss Graves. iff' WM Staff listens as adviser speaks, top left. Staff sells ornaments at Christmas time, bottom left.

By Allison Burke TA, or Future Teachers of Amer- ica, is designed to help students learn about the teaching profes- sion, its opportunities, responsibilities, and its important role in this demo- cracy, through various teacher aide activities. Keith Kirk, senior and vice presi- dent of FTA, said, This year we had a lot of growing pains. FTA had trouble attracting enough people to join. There was a problem because the club was made up mostly of seniors. When the seniors graduated, the club became smaller. It's best to join when you are a junior or sophomore. But most people FTA trades da y with teachers, helps with projects who join are seniors, Keith said. were sold for St. Patrick's Day. FTA participates in several activi- ties, such as teaching days where the students trade places with teachers. Students get to experience what it is like being a teacher, Keith said. Students also get to attend educa- tional conferences. We just attended a conference on instructional manage- ment where we were taught how to deal with children who learn more slow- ly, and children who are most advanc- ed. We learned a good basic program is needed for all elementary children, Keith said. FTA had a ring toss booth this year at the Fall Fun Fest. Popcorn was sold at Christmas. and small shamrocks FTA is also involved in community projects. Students help the school stamp books, and the members of FTA have adopted a nursing home. The students go to the nursing home and visit the patients. We make cards and help decorate at holiday time. Keith said.

Safety Committee is an organiza- tion whose object is to promote safety throughout the school district and com- munity. The club, sponsored by Mr. Jim Gibb with president Joe Patterson, vice president, Eric Dooley, treasurer, Derek Muir and secretary, Kim Craig, sponsors many activities. For example, in October students traveled to elementary schools in the district and informed the students of safety practices safe procedures to be used on Hallo- ween. This activity was followed by a child car seat rental program in con- junction with St. Mary's Hospital. In the spring, the safety committee will sponsor the annual bloodbank. Plans to paint directional signs on LA. building, check tire pressure and wash windshields have also been planned as personal projects by each of the mem- bers. Although they perform many deeds in order to insure safety, Joe Patterson feels that by far any activity we perform is important. Front row: B. Wieberg, B. Dull, M. Popp, L. Sandy, S. Sower- by.

Ms. Marguerite Farabee be- came the new adviser of Student Sen- ate '82-83 last spring, and many things were to be changed. The first of the changeswas that not everyone had to enroll in the lead- ership class. This did cause some problems, but we worked around it, said junior Darci Hansen. Homecom- ing is something that the Senate does, but no one knows. Well, this year I think Homecoming was a little more planned than last year, said junior Lorri Moran. Student Senate has -done several projects this year, but one that they tried to push was KISS Week. I liked the kissing contest in the assembly, said senior Brian Dierking. The week was different and ranged from magic in the morning to music while eating lunch, to six guys trying to guess which .girl they kissed and finding out it was their mothers. The Senate has many ideas for next year and things will definitely be different again. Communication will positively be better, said Darci. 4 , Q..

BSHS had four AFS students this year, Grazia Ancillani from Italy, Robert Aniedo from Brazil, Martin Kreuger from Austria and Bjorn Sondue from Sweden. Also the school had one YFU student Gordon Gamein from West Germany. Grazia, a senior, said, I cried everyday in my room, at first, but now I like it here. One thing all the AFS students liked was that school is a lot easier here and getting to choose subjects and change classes makes it more interest- mg. Most of the students will be leav- ing around June or July except Robert Azuedo, a junior, who will leave in Jan- uary. Grazia was able to select where she wanted to go, and she chose the United States. She said people in Italy have dreams of coming to the U.S. They also think everyone is rich and problem free. Gordon, a senior, said that if he could have chosen where to go, he would have chosen Hawaii. All of the students said their fami- lies in the United States were great and they were getting very close to them. Martin, a senior, said, My family is super! On March 28, 1983, AFS students from other schools came to Blue Springs High and showed pictures and slides to different classes. Front row: C. Sublette, M. Winfrey, D. Downs, K. Jackson, C.

B'Club 107 NFL members earn points in speaking, debating By Donna Atterbury ational Forensics League is a club for competitors in debate and individual events. The club gives students a chance to achieve points and recognition for their work. Students debate or speak at con- tests held in the area for points and trophies. The student must have a set number of service points to belong to the NFL, and earn more points to advance to higher degrees of competi- tion. NFL is a national organization, and almost every school has a chapter. Each chapter must maintain a set num- ber of service points each year to con- tinue membership in the organization. It's an honor to belong to NFL, said Mrs. Georgia Brady, NFL spon- sor, and is comparable to National Honor Society. The club has officers who preside over meetings and arrange the Blue Springs Contest. This year's president was Josh Lemuix, senior, vice-presi- dent was Chris Martone, junior, secre- tary was Susan Sears, junior, the treasurer was Tim Lewis, senior, and the historian was Kelly Henry, senior. Mrs. Brady also said that a mem- bership to NFL is nice to have because colleges and future employers notice it on a transcript.

Thespians is an international orga- nization of actresses and actors who are interested in knowing about theat- er, said Doug Gossett, president of the local troupe. Mrs. Gaye Warnock, supervisor of Troupe 48, has been a member of Thespians since her high school years, and the supervisor for BSHS for four years. Once you're a member, you're a member for life, said Mrs. Warnock. G6 It's an honor to belong. Besides Annie Get Your Gun and Our Town, Thespians are involv- ed in numerous other activities. Some- times we do children's theater and one- act plays, said Mrs. Warnock. They also have an annual picnic along with parties and softball games. New members can be members of a play's cast or technical crew. They are chosen by their character. And, as most clubs, Thespians has an initiation. The officers and elder members decide the initiation, said Doug. It's usually something outrage- ous. Both Doug and Mrs. Warnock think the membership will grow. I i i i Thespians, front row: Miss G.

The state con- test was held at the Lodge of the Four Seasons at the Lake of the Ozarks on March 27, 28 and 29. Those who advanced to state were: Mark Hernandez, George Farm- er, Rick Nixon, Greg Martin, Marcia Kester, Mike Ramirez, Desiree Rasa, Angie Hoots, Cari Carpenter, Mary Stein, Maria Edwards, Jeff DeMarco, Chris Schneider, Kent Hessefort, Joe Migis, Darcy Love, Chris Wyatt, Tony Cox, John Seredich, Glenda Snow, Ron White, Ann Molle and Cindy DeLa- Rosa. DECA is the largest and most active club on campus with more 'than 100 members, said Mr. Jerry Keister. We have been a successful club be- cause of the outstanding officers, he said. District contest is where we are always successful, but state is where doing good really counts. You get to go to nationals, which this year will be at New Orleans, he added.

More students from Blue Springs need to get involved, said Mrs. Daw- son. Since this is the first year at Blue Springs, we have not been able to reach all the students that could benefit from the program, Mrs. Dawson said. Students learn something of the business world when they try to sell candy bars, tumblers and jewelery. Each year students can see how well they are doing in a business field by going to contest. In our first year of competition, three students won at dis- trict and will be advancing to state competition, said Mrs. Dawson. Last year state was held at Jefferson City, April 22-23,', she added. If you are going to have a career in the business world it would be a very good idea to become a member of the Future Business Leaders of America, said Mrs. Dawson.

' a ' Blue Springs High School has been well-known for its sports champions over the years. The 1982- 83 school year has been no exception. The Wiflfdcat cross country team claimed the state championship this past fall. The varsity wres- tlers tqdk third place in state this winter, while the eboysffswimming team caxme in fifth at state - their beisfifinsish.esLer. Girls' varsity basketball took first place in the Big Six Conference for the first- time. New construction also benefitted the teams. A new track was built for sprinxg, and booster clubs helped raise money for additional bleachers forthe football stadium. The new bleachers were in place for homecoming. ' Moments in sports have been continual at ESHS. Whether a sports participant or spectator, most of the momeiftsfhave been tremendous. Sports Diu1slonfll7 r A moment inisports . . . Varsity football wins three in tough schedule Q By Lorri Moran ust because the varsity football team had a losing season doesn't mean the moments weren't there. The team won the first game of the season against Hickman Mills. Coach Fred Merrell said, Winning the first game was important mentally for the rest of the season. The first two games were not too difficult as compared to the rest of the season. Our schedule was the third toughest in the state, Coach Merrell said. The boys decided that to have a winning season they had to play with- out any mistakes. We had too many mistakes during crucial moments, said Merrell. The Lee's Summit game was very disappointing to lose in overtime, and we also played without senior Rick Nixon, he added. Another disappointment was the Rockhurst game. The score didn't show it, but the Rockhurst coach told me that we were one of the toughest three teams that they played, Merrell said. Although the season wasn't too hot, the boys kept their attitude up and I was pleased with that, he said. The outlook for the next football season doesn't look too bad. We have 17 lettermen coming back next year, so I think we'll have a little more expe- rience, he said. A ,f fm ,ff if Ri fi X xX X xxx, xx px X .

I feel we had a really good season - one of our best in awhile, Coach Jenkins said. The overall season record was 9-1. We only lost one game, and that was to Rockhurst. It was a controversial call. The Rockhurst player caught a pass while behind in the endzone, he said. Another game that was played rather unusually was the Park Hill game, The team was playing with the sophomore quarterback because the JV quarterback couldn't play. One incident that made the boys play harder was that to be able to play on varsity and dress out with varsity, the boys had to prove to Coach Jen- kins that they could win and play better than most high school students. Coach Jenkins was the one to recommend who would play varsity from JV, so the boys had to prove themselves. Coach Jenkins feels that the play- ers will be very much improved next year. The JV will mostly go to varsity and the boys have a good attitude, and that's what is important. 9 24 fi Qf -4 1 aw , gig, ' f , , f A , f 0 as ft 4 , ,-1 I , A, ., Ziff! il A ff f I In . , 45 , ,Q ...K t . . ,MQ K ',H3 F .

JV football 125 7 Sophomore football earns split record in '82 By Kim Barthelmess ust because the sophomore foot- ball team didn't have the best sea- son ever, Coach Phil Leis is still impressed with the performance shown by the sophomore boys. The overall record for the sopho- mores was 3-5-1. Our record wasn't where we wanted it to be, Coach Leis said. I feel that our strong point this season was our running game, and our weak point was our passing. He feels that the sophomore squad didn't have the players they needed to have a suc- cessful season because of the players that were on junior varsity. Every player has his moments, and Coach Leis gives a few examples: Ken- ny Young caught a pass and went 60 yards for a touchdown. This was one of very few touchdown passes. Another example is when the offense was lined up on the goal line and John Nixon was called for the play. Somehow the ball got mixed up. The ball wound up be- hind John's back. He got control and scored a touchdown. Also, Mike Cor- bett played like a 'wildman' on defense in the game against Ft. Osage, he added. The game that stands out most in my mind was against Rockhurst. We beat them 14-0 at Rockhurst. Our boys played very well, he said. He feels that the boys are excited about next year. Some will be able to play varsity, and some will do junior varsity. If you take the boys we have and put them with skilled upcoming sophomores, they will all do fine. 'mi' 5-.,,g.f .. f . ,s i r 2221455 , Q ,fM'3Q7QGXfW 5 3, 'I . g,,,.Qe4f' V fjgf?'f'i .E f.

The soccer team placed first in districts scoring 3-1 against Englewood and 3-0 against Pem-Day. I think we started a tradition of being a strong power in districts, Coach Brad Dunn said. The kids always put out 100 per- 128 Soccer .EJ rl' cent when I asked them to, he said. The most exciting game was against Olathe North when the finish of the game was determined by 12 penalty kicks, with Blue Springs winning the game. They did as much as they could accomplish, said Dunn, I enjoyed teaching them. In their first game of sectionals Blue Springs failed to defeat Rockhurst. We did good at getting to sectionalsf said Sheldon Handy, a junior, Rock- hurst is good. We hope we will make state next year, Sheldon said. We have more experience under our belts. We lost to Rockhurst, 1-O, said Dunn, Too bad we had to lose. Both Coach Dunn and Handy are optimistic about next year's perform- ance. Opposite page: An opposing player cuts off Dan Owens, right.

The team finished its season with seven first places in regular meets and first place victories at district and sec- tionals. But the greatest win was a first place victory at state. In the state meet, Scott Stetzler crossed the finish line to take eighth place with Clint Sperry taking 17th, and Steve I-Ieinking following close be- hind at 18th. Other outstanding per- formances were: Brian Webb, senior 57th, Doug Kingsley, junior, 63rd, Kur- tis Julian, senior, 68th, and Scott Groves, sophomore, 93rd. 7 They're one of the best bunches of guys, if not the best, I could have had, said Coach Gary Parker. Coach had it all figured out, said Scott Stetzler, senior. He said, 'I think we won.' We stayed together as a team, and everyone tried to help each other, said Clint Sperry, a senior.

The varsity record was 2-13. The team practiced two to three hours every night after school. The team of eight seniors included: Ste- phanie Buck, Lucinda Decker, Lisa Jo- line, Shelly Joline, Kathy Maples, Tracie Tunks, Vickie Weiss and Diana Williams, five juniors: Audrae Heerman, Jana Houston, Susan Sears, Sherri White and Angie Willett, and the two sophomores were Becky Fox and An- drea Wilson. The varsity coach was Mr. Roy Stephenson and the junior varsity coach was Dr. Maridella Andrews. After having a long hard year the team will mainly be getting fresh new players for next season because out of the 10 varsity players only two of them will be returning for next year's season. The team did not place in conference or in district.

I thought we would do a little bet- ter than we did, but it was good over- all, said junior, Dick Warnock. We reached both our goals, conference champions and top five in state, said senior, Matt Turner. The greatest moments of each of the swimmers was winning conference and being fifth in state, but all of the swimmers brought those moments. Everyone who stuck it out through the whole season contributed to our victories and they all deserve a lot of respect from the student body, said Turner. Illness seemed to put a damper on some of the swim team's moments. Of course, when you get up at 4:30 a.m. during the week, plus the cold temper- atures, sickness is hard to avoid, said Turner. The outlook for next year's team is something that everyone will be able to look forward to. The seniors were important, but we have the talent to surpass this loss, Warnock said. I feel that next year's team has the potential to dominate the conference and a good chance of winning state, said Turner, who will be leaving. lt was a blast! said Warnock. , , ,,.,,v, ,,,, , 14O!Boys' swimming 53-W The greatest moments of each of the swimmers was winning confer- ence and being fbfth in state, but all of the swimmers brought those moments.

We had good potential, but we just couldn't get the big breaks when we needed them, said Jeff Mittie and Ben Fowler. We lost a lot of close games from not getting that big break, Jeff said. We would seem to reach a high and something would go wrong and we came straight down, Ben said. Our first loss came the fourth game at the Springfield-Glendale tour- nament, Mark Ward said. Even though we had a 10 and 16 record, it was still a good year because next year there will be more juniors playing with 'some seniors returning with experience to take us further, Coach Hamlin said. Next year will be the best year, Mark said, while Jeff added, We will do as good as we want to, and Ben said, We will have the talent, skills and potential to reach our goal as long as we get the breaks and the .luck.

Girls' basketball wins conference championship By Debbie Ring he most successful season ever was contributed by the girls' varsity basketball team for the 1982-83 year. During the season the girls acquir- ed many accomplishments. They won the Big Six Conference for the first time in the history of girls' basketball. Also, three members from the var- sity team were named to the Big Six All Conference Team. These players were Lisa Besses, senior, Julie Evert, senior, and Julie Sutton, senior. The varsity team captured 24 wins and 2 losses during their season, with the junior varsity team gathering seven wins and nine losses. A new coach, Mr. Kenny Vance, supervised the varsity team. This may have contributed to the winning sea- son. Coach Vance said, I am as proud of them fthe team! as I can be, and they are all winners, not only as players but as people too. In the basketball events, such play- ers as Lisa Besses and Julie Evert were most recognized for their playing ac- complishments. During the season, a man from KCMO, Bill Davis, set up an appointment to interview the girls. The interview was taped Feb. 15, and aired the following Friday at 10:30 p.m. It fthe interview! was fun and was out of the ordinary for me, Lisa said. Both girls thought it was an exciting expe- rience. if ,, 'M-ff ft'-W up-Q Girls' ba5lcetl1allf153 Fourth place at state tops wrestlers' season By Mary Ann Rehkow his year's wrestling team ended the season well by taking second in conference, second in district and fourth in the state meet.

Park Hill, Oak Park and Winne- tonka all have tough seniors coming up. We only have six seniors returning, but it only takes four good guys to win state, said Coach Chuck Sears. Blue Springs will be wrestling teams from Iowa, Kansas and other parts of Missouri. Coach Sears said he thought this competition would prepare the team for state. I love to see young kids working out. The more time one spends on it - the better you are, said Coach Sears. ln wrestling it doesn't matter if one is big, little, fat or skinny, Coach Sears added, because one is paired up to another the same size. It takes natural ability and experience and lots of prac- tice to become a good wrestler, Coach Sears said. Size is not important. 154f Wrestling bfi fin ,.

The Wildcat golfers, who have a tradition of winning, share the title of conference champion with Oak Park and Lee's Summit. To the Cats, who have won or shared the golf title for six consecutive years, being on top was no new expe- rience. The strange part, however, was the fact that three conference teams all finished with seven wins and three loss- es to create the first 3-way tie in the conference's 14-year history. For Fred Merrel who has coached the golf team for nine of the 14 years, the season was both pleasing and dis- appointing. We did well, he said, especially when you consider our inex- periencef' Merrel was, however, dis- appointed at the three-way tie. We were in a position where we could have won the title outright, he said. All we had to do was win.

Doug Comstock shot a 44 followed by Brad Tally with 45. Park I-lill's lowest player shot a 47 in the high winds. Following this season, Coach Mer- rel sees the future a bright one for Blue Springs. Though the Cats lose two let- termen, they will have four people with varsity letters returning. Joe Du- Charme, who had the Wildcats' lowest season average at 42.73, graduates as does Brad Tally who averaged 44.33 this year. Leading the list of returning lettermen is Tom Crowley with an aver- age of 42.93. Also returning are Craig Jones and Craig Turley who both have averages in the 43 stroke range. Round- ing out the varsity lettermen for this year is Doug Comstock who compiled a 44 average on the season to date. Speaking of his success, Coach Merrel was quick to give credit to eve- ryone but himself concerning six con- secutive titles. The situation is condu- cive to winning, he said. Many schools don't have the chance to prac- tice everyday but the Country Club has really been helpful. Seven conference championships in nine years, however, cannot all be accidents. Fred Merrel continues to produce winning teams. i ,,, ,, . Golff159 With five varsity letter winners leaving, next season's teamdepends on the upcoming talent.

Up, down season for girls' volleyball team By Cindy Wilson ump, set, spike it! That's the way we like it! This was the chant of the 1982-83 girls' volleyball team. Under the supervision of Coach Dave Priddy and Coach Marci Gant, the girls had an up and down season. We played one good game, said Coach Priddy, and played bad the next. With five varsity letter winners leaving, next season's team depends on the upcoming talent. We have a lot of good talent out there, it's just a mat- ter of them coming out to play, said Coach Priddy. The goals for the '82-83 season were to make it to conference and to qualify for state. As Coach Priddy said, We fell short of both. Coach Priddy has been coaching the girls' volleyball team for three years, but is not going to coach the 1983-84 season. Ms. Gant is going to coach, he said. Coach Priddy said that the one big improvement that needed to be made was that the girls should have gone into the games more mentally prepared. vgiieybaiifiei Baseball team wins district for first time By Debbie Ring inning the district finals for the first time in the Wildcats' baseball history was a great accomplishment for the team. We fthe teaml finally accomplished something that we hadn't in the past few years. That was winning the district tourna- ment, said Coach Brad Mayfield. The game against Truman was probably the most exciting game of the tournament. Brian Box, junior, hit a grand slam homerun in the bottom of the seventh inning. The bases were loaded and he drove in four runs. This captured the final victory score of 4-3. The Wildcats then journeyed on to the state tournament. A game against Oak Park was played and ended in a loss for Blue Springs, 6-9. The Wildcats finished 10th in 10 for the season. I was disappointed in the conference record because we had won it the last two years. But winning district made up for it, said Coach Mayfield. Two seniors made the first All- Conference team. These were Marty Mutti who played first base and se a school record batting average of .422. Also, Larry Schellenberger, who played third base made all conference. In addition, Kelly Milner, seniorg Dan Owens, senior, and Andy Zuniga, . , 1 fw Sliding into homeplate is Dan Owens, top left. To steal or not to steal, upper right.

Baseball! 163 Softball girls experience mixed season By Michelle Bruckner efore the '83 tournament, the softball girls played their last sev- en games, starting with Lee's Summit. In their first game against I.ee's Summit, they lost 4-3 and again they lost 3-1. It was a real good game by both teams. It could have gone either way, said Coach Dave Priddy. Both teams had four hits each. Next, they beat Park Hill 4-2. Deb- bie Williamson had a homerun, which was the high point of our hitting, said Coach Priddy. The Wildcats had five hits and Park Hill had six hits, but the game could have gone either way. Following that, the Wildcats played Belton and lost 3-2. This was our worst game of the whole season, said Coach Priddy. We had bad hitting but good pitching. Next, they traveled to Belton for a double-header in which they won both games 3-2 and 9-3. We played real well. We hit the ball better than we had before, Coach Priddy said. Lastly, they beat Gak Park, 10-2. Coach Priddy said, It was 'one of our best games hitting and pitching-wise. Overall, we played an extemely good game. I 1 I Xl I. X. 1 64f Softball This page: Teammates congratulate one another, top left. The batter swings at the ball, top right.

Two qualifying members for the state meet were Todd Foster, who placed third in the shot put, and Scott Stetzler, who placed second in the 800 and fifth in the 1600. At the Jefferson City relays the four-mile relay team broke the school record, as well as other records that were broken throughout the season. It was a real good year, and all our practices were geared toward the meets, said C. J.

Tryouts for three squads take two weeks By Sabrina Hedges ut of the 50 girls that try out each year for cheerleading, only 20 positions can be filled. Spring tryouts lasted two weeks. V During the two weeks, senior cheerleaders teach the girls trying out cheers and chants that they ,will use in the official tryouts. Two days before tryouts mock tryouts are held. The senior girls act as judges. On slips of paper they give advice, comments and support to the girls to help them for the real tryouts. This mock tryout system helps the girls get used to an audience because while this is taking place, the baseball and track teams are wandering in and out of the gym. At the end of the two-week period, the actual tryouts begin. They start right after school and sometimes con- tinue until 7:30 p.m. that evening. Judges are not from the school so as to be as fair and objective as possi- ble. Former cheerleaders are not per- mitted to wear any part of their pre- vious uniforms. When tryouts are over, everyone must wait for the scores to be tallied. Included are points for ability, appearance and teacher recommenda- tion scores. The top 20 are the new cheerleaders for the next year. These girls will fill the three squads - two squads of six and one squad of eight. Each group cheers for different teams at Blue Springs High School. W1 'pl- --' '-lr Er! .33 i I 70 Cheerleaders 'At the end of the two-week period, the actual tryouts begin.

Cheerleaders 1 71 Drill team wins awards at summer camp By Sabrina Hedges amp turned out to be success- ful last summer for the Blue Springs High School drill team. The group won awards for the best home routine and for having the most blue ribbons which are given for first place. The camp lasted four days at Wi- chita State University, and in that time the girls learned about 12 separate rou- tines and used about nine of them. The drill team each day split into groups and went to three classes. The classes started at 9 a.m., and some- times the girls didn't get' to bed until after midnight. On the last day compe- titions were held. One competition was called drill down. It is something like an army drill as it is all instantaneous. The leader calls out commands and if a girl misses, she is out. Teresa Wagner was the last one standing and received an award for her quickness. It's one competition that the girls call nerve wrackingf' It's a lot of hard work, and it can get you down, but when you've just performed and you've done a good job, all that hard work is worth it, said Melissa Cook, a junior on drill team.

Linda Seni0rsf197 Last year Seniors finally reach top goal eing a senior is the goal of all high school students. Starting during the sophomore year, when upperclassmen talk about the lit- tle sophomores, how tough Hamlet is, the dread of taking the ACT or SAT, and towards spring when the talk turns to prom and finally graduation, one dreams of being a senior. These dreams continue through junior classes, and finally the long awaited senior year arrives. A senior is at the top of the school. The underclassmen look up to them, and respect them in their own way. The teachers and administrators also look to them to take responsibility, and to assume positions as leaders of the school. This is how the teachers, prin- cipals and other students look at sen- iors, and many seniors themselves feel the same way. You're not looked down on any- more, said senior Dennis Murphy, and there is more freedom. Senior Larry Wallace had almost the same tion, a crossroads. I think you start to realize your whole future is ahead of you, said sen- ior Shelly Campbell. To senior Pat Grif- fith it is, You have more responsibili- 'Seniors don't have to face another year of high school, and you rank over juniors and sophomoresf view. He said, Seniors don't have to face another year of high school, and you rank over juniors and sopho- moresf' Many feel that this is what being a senior is all about, but many also feel that the senior year is a time of transi- ties as a senior, deciding on a college and what to do with your life.', Being a senior means something different to everyone, but Pat sums up the traditional idea of a senior: People look up to you and respect you. 198fSeniors ,. ..

At least it was for Lori Standsberry, a 16-year-old junior at Blue Springs High School. I miss my friends most of all, said Lori, I really miss them. Lori moved from Burlington, IA, where she had lived for six years, to Missouri. To tell you the truth, I have never liked Missouri, said Lori. I-Ier family has a cabin at the Lake of the Ozarks and when they would visit it, before they moved, Lori didn't like it and she doesn't know why. On the first day of school, instead of being overly friendly, the students made her feel left out. It was like, 'You're new and we are not going to talk to you, said Lori. She saw stu- dents talking to their friends about the summer and she couldn't tell them Bellinghausen, Tammy Bennett, Nat Benson, Scott Berg, Leticia Besses, Andrea Bilotti, Jerry about .hers. Lori said, I feel better now, not like the outsider like I was. It takes awhile to get used to it fschoolif' said Lori. The grading in Bur- lington was done by A, B, C, D, and F's, instead of E, S, M, I, and F's. When she would get a paper with an E on it she didn't know if she had done well or bad. The grade cards were mailed to the house in Iowa, instead of the stu- dents bringing them home. If you were lucky, you could intercept the mail, said Lori. It was a lot easier to skip school, said Lori. Instead of individual cards the teachers would use one slip of paper to write all the students' names on it. When you left the room you could scratch off your name, said Lori, Or if you knew someone working in the office, they would. No one dressed preppy, said Lori. The dress was casual, nobody cares. Everyone was more or less the same. The freaks were called hoods, said Lori. The schools CBurlington and Blue Springs! have about the same amount of students.

Pat Hinkle, junior would like to become a professional bass fisherman. Now, he goes fishing about three times a week, He would like to go everyday, but that just isn't possible. Pat's favorite place to fish is Lake Pomme De Terre. He can't go there everyday, so he usually fishes at area lakes and ponds. When he goes fishing he usually goes with older brother, Lennie. Some- times he goes with just his dog, Missy. The lures he uses most often are plastic worms, spinner baits, jigs and crank baits. Darker colored lures usually work best for me. I usually use black, Pat f X said. He fishes with an Ugly Stick rod, a Zebco reel, and a 10-pound test line. So far the largest fish he has caught has been a 16-inch, five pound- er. The best fishing spots are where there are a lot of trees, brush, and lily pads, he said. Pat prefers to use a Fike, Pam Fincher, Tammy Fischer, Mike Fishel, Bob Fisher, Brenda Fjellman, Scott Flaigle, Stephanie Fletcher, Keith Floyd, Stephen Folkers, David Ford, Jill Fowler, Ben Fox, Mary Frame, Donald French, Sherri Fullerton, Scott Garcia, Cecilia Garvey, Mike Gaskill, Lonnie Gaverth, Leif Gentry, Laura George, Todd Getman, Brad Gibson, Kevin boat so he doesn't have to walk around looking for a good fishing spot. Pat has written to Strike King Lure to see if they willsponsor him. He also plans to attend the Bass Fishing Insti- tute's summer school located in Spring- field, Mo. I Jumorsf 205 206f uniors Junior enioys Japanese stay By Allison Burke rmy occupations take people to far corners of the world as Kathy Simmons, junior, and her family found out. T Kathy's father, an Army munitions inspector, was stationed in Okinawa, a small island in Japan. The Simmons family lived in Japan for two years. Kathy attended fifth and sixth grade at an American school on Okinawa. I There were some Japanese kids at the American school who could speak English, said Kathy. Gibson, Sandy Gillison, Kim Girardi, Jeanne Gladbach, Jill Glass, Tim Glassford, Tracy Glover, Johnna Godsy, Gary Gosset, Doug Grabb, Diane Grahm, Travis Green, Kelly Green, Randy . Greer, Barbara Grigg, Debbie Grover, David Gumminger, Gary Gunderson, Troy Gustin, Pat Hahn, Dana Hake, Mike Hamilton, Larry Handley, Joanna Handy, Sheldon Kathy and her friends found the language barrier frustrating. One day after school we met this group of Japa- nese kids. One of the girls was really cute, and we tried to tell her that by using gestures and sign language. To this day I still wonder if she understood what we were saying. Kathy loved the Japanese food. Her favorites were boiled rice and egg foo yung. The first time I ordered egg foo yung in a restaurant, I was sur- prised. The waitress brought me my plate and there was a big round pan- cake with syrup on it. I told her that I didn't order a pancake, and my dad told' me it was egg foo yung. I was so embarrassed. Another favorite of Kathy's was a type of cream pie that was shaped like a pyramid with the point cut off. It was so good. I loved it! said Kathy. She really liked the Japanese peo- ple. They were so small. And they had such tiny feet. I couldn't believe it. Everyone rode motorcycles. There was even a separate lane for the motorcycles, Kathy said. 1 The Japanese people like blonde hair, she said. They were always touching my little brother's hair. They thought it would bring them good luck. There is so much to say about Japan. You really have to go there to see what I'm talking about. I'd love to go back there some day.

I've had to learn to budget my time. so I could dr both my homework and practice. Having a family that is very supportive surely has helped, he said. Greg Dorrance, a teammate, said, He is. good at everything and has the ability to be a good swimmer. Greg also said, Tyler is one of the hardest workers and is a natural leader. Because they do not offer his best competition, he is giving up his best chances to make junior nationals, and that shows his dedication and school spirit, Coach Bill Shalley said. He feels that Tyler has a great chance, but it is still a matter of time. fI'yler's dedication and ability to be a leader is necessary to be a captain. He said, People expect a lot, and they expect you to do your best. P Tyler's high school goal is to win Consideration All-American. And how does he feel about his chances at junior nationals? This year will be my best chance and I think I can make it, he said. Tyler also intends to further his ability in college.

However, most of these smart people work for their grades. But to Dick Warnock, grades do come easily to him. I don't spend a lot of time study- ing, said Dick. Dick is taking such courses as debate, French IV, trigonometry, Amer- ican History, English, German and Chemistry II. With such a busy schedule, it would be imagined that Dick would have homework all the time. But not true. Most of my homework is all done at school, said Dick. Dick has been in debate for four months. I thought it Cdebatel would be i good to have if I'm going to be a lawyer. But I have changed my mind about law, he said. I might continue with debate in college, Dick added. He is not sure what college he will attend, but he has narrowed down his choices for majors to computer tech- Ruggles, Joyce Rusert, Jennifer Russell, Kristy Saban, Chris Sanders, Chris Sandy, Laura Santangelo, Lori Saputo, Gina Saputo, Lisa Scherer, Sandy Schneider, Jody Schneider, Pam Schuh, Punky Schumaker, Lori Sears, Susan Sebben, Traci Seemann, Tina Shepherd, Susie Sherwood, Jeff Shipman, Pam Simmons, Kathy Simmons, Lisa Simpson, Chris nology, biochemical engineering and mathematics.

But probably not everyone knows about one dancer at BSHS, Pam Fike. Pam has been dancing since she was three. She started with Deanne Brown of Deanne's School of Dance.

I have always been energetic and would go crazy dancing to anything and everything. I really love the music and the beat. It just gets to me and I automatically want to dance. Pam was involved with the musi- cal, Annie Get Your Gun. She has also been doing yearly recitals since the age of four. Workouts are long and hard whether at home or at the studio. The hardest workouts are dance conventions. They are usually two to three days all day long! You barely have a 10-minute break between class- es and lunch. It is hard, but a challenge and fantastic fun, she said. Pam is not sure what the future holds for her. She might follow the footsteps of long-admired dancers. She wants to perform on stage andfor teach one day, but to be really good she says she needs work on her self-assurance. I love dancing because it is a way to express my inner-most feelings and get the audience to feel what you feel. It's great, Pam said.

Air Patrol Student's career goal flying high By Collin Reynolds ow many high school students know how to fly to an exact point on a grid system, to find such as a downed plane and then enact a rescue mission? Well, sophomore Steve Ondak has some experience dealing with this everyday. Steve, who sports the rank of Air- man in the Civil Air Patrol, attends regular meetings in downtown Indepen- dence. This is not the whole program, though. I think people get the wrong idea about the CAP. Certainly if they only go to the first meeting they will get the wrong idea, Steve added, If you stick with it, it can be fun. The Civil Air Patrol is a military organization, using strict regulations and discipline in the teaching of search and rescue missions. We learn techniques such as how to spot downed trees in order to find a plane. We use two books, one is Aero- space and the other is leadership. These instruct us on the important attributes of a patrolman, he said. Another important part of our instruction is encampments. In Wiscon- sin, we were all trying to earn our Blue Beret, so there was very little goofing around, not that there is anyway. We spent one week in Ft. McCoy and the other in Oshkosh. Those were two of the hardest weeks of my life. Of course, having a different line than most people, Steve has had some unique experiences. One of the funni- est things happened that in CAP was when we were practicing on ground team at Lake Jacomo. We were stand- ing in a fight frow by row at attentioni and most of us were chewing gum. Well, it is against regulation to chew gum, so the Colonel took it from our mouths, pockets, wherever we had it and he started chewing it. It really looked funny. Steve hopes someday to be in the Air Force. The CAP offers an award called Billy Mitchell. If passed, he would enter the Air Force as an officer. lf I don't pass my Billy Mitchell, I will probably enlist in the Air Force ROTC. They would teach me all the things I need to expect from the Air Force, Steve said. 91 Opposite Page: Juniors study in Mrs. Martha CockreIl's class.

She also goes to different schools to find out what their senate is like. The officers usually meet every month or more if possible. Shelly said, I recommend a lot of people to run for office.

I-Iarold Hoff, sophomore, built his theater about two and a half feet high. Harold used books on the Sha- kespearean theater to help him build the model. It took me a week and about two days to build it. I worked on it a lot, Harold said. Harold suffered a major catastro- phe after he had finished building the model theater. My grandpa came in one night from a run the works for a trucking companyj and he set his C.B. down on the table.

Kevin likes art, and he became interested in the different types of art- work that comics contain. Kevin does not go to extremes to store his collection. He said he stores them in my room in stacks on high shelves. He also says, I'd never get them bent or anything, it ruins the value. Kevin's collection consists of Mar- vel, a few D.C., X-Men, and Fan- tastic Four, but mainly Marvel, Most of Kevin's comics are the works of John Byrne. Kevin says, The artists have a lot to do with the cost, and John Byrne's are the most expen- sive. Kevin bought and traded to get all the comics he has now, and he is still collecting more.

They have been falsely accused of being un- talented, slightly uncoordinatedf' and just not with it. However, these accu- sations are not altogether true. David Burkhart is a sophomore. He is also a singer, musician and sopho- more extraordinaire. David has man- aged to keep up a 4.0 average while being active in music. His accomplish- ments began at the age of six, when he ' began to study the piano. As a fresh- man, he was first chair clarinet in All- District band. He takes private vocal lessons. . Perhaps one of his grandest achievements was singing as one third of a trio of spirits in Mozart's The Magic Flute. By being so active in his church choir and in his piano lessons, David has kept his inspiration and interest. He is active in A Cappella and chamber choirs, as well as marching band, not to mention his membership in the sopho- more class.

During her first year at Blue Springs she was nominated to be a homecoming princess and played on the soccer team. She moved here from California in the summer of 1982, after living in the West for 15 years. I like it here. The kids are a lot like the kids in California. At first it wasn't easy, I found it hard to get along with people, but after awhile it became easy, she said. We had a smaller school, and we only went six hours instead of seven. We also had an A, B, C, D, F system of grading. We had a 45-minute lunch period, and we could leave campus. Joplin, Janice Joslyn, Andy Kankey, Vic Karo, Robert Keck, John Keeney, Carissa In ?

We didn't start school until 8 a.m., she added. Blue Springs has more school spirit than my other school. There you didn't see as many school jackets and stuff. She wished BSHS had a girls' soccer team, and she said a lot more girls played soccer in California. In California I lived on a ranch where I raised pigs and sheep for show. Here I live in town, she said. The people here, she said, have an accent. They also have funny say- ings like 'blew it off,' but the people in California are more hyper and they are always running around and talking fas- ter. They also dress up a lot more. About being nominated for home- coming princess, Bridgette said, I was shocked! I didn't think I'd get it because I was so new, and I wasnit disappointed when I didn't win because I didn't ex- pect to. I play indoor and outdoor soccer, and I take karate lessons and jazz class. I also hope to go out for basket- ball and track, she said. 4 i l A ' A' 1 . , , Za, as 2.15 a n sf N- ' -1 .rr2'..'gs:.-si,S -4.2 . 1 -fiqwgfs ..'- i- ws: -:se-S' cs-'QS' S-.QQKLQN X-' K 5 X Q X cts YW X X x' Q X is X 'Q' 1 Q X ig 2 X X l x Q I XX . , EA 5735- ' ' e f , N i .'..,i il. xx .

Sophomore VP in activities By Debbie Ring full day at school is more than just waking up, going to school, and at 2:20 returning home, for Jon Keck, sophomore. In- stead, he is involved in many activities that require a lot of out-of-school hours. Jon is the vice-president of the sophomore class. With this responsibil- ity, he is needed to help organize fund raising projects for the class, charity work, building floats and helping out with pep assemblies and dances. Doing these things, makes school more inter- esting, Jon said. In his freshman year he was a Member at Large for student council. 'Y f There are other activities in which he is involved. These include several sports such as football, swimming and track. Jon has played football for the school for three years. This year he was the tailback on offense and quar- terback on defense. Being his first year on the swim team, he lettered for varsi- ff f jus, J Z mm 1 44 f ,V ,S , . at - X ,gf i X5 -,f 45.1 1 f f f ' W.-,V , , 6 f Q! 2 1 f fp ? f gf ff I f ff X f i f f , f f f Oerke, Melissa O'Bryan, Teresa if O'Leary, Sherri f Ondak, Steven if f T O'Neill, Brian f' ,.

To justify the time spent, Jon said, These activities could help me throughout life. This leaves Jon with a busy day but several rewards. I H 1. Determination By June Watson reams are an important part of a young person's life. One Blue Springs student knows the ex- hilaration of seeing a dream within her reach and the pain of watching it shat- ter. Tami Fischer, sophomore, has been active in gymnastics since the age of three when her mother enrolled her at the Faherty School of Dance. Until 1980, though, the sport was just a favorite pastime. It was then that the Lialaxy School of Gymnastics ap- proached her with an offer to become a serious student. Tami accepted the offer and began a grueling practice schedule. For four hours a night, five days a week, she practiced floor exercises, balance beam, uneven parallel bars and vault. A typical practice included running one mile, strength exercises fpush-ups, sit-ups, pull-upsj and an hour-and-a- half workout on two assigned pieces of equipment. Sometimes she had trouble keeping up with her studies, but solved this problem in an unusual way. I made a game of it, repeating parts of what I had to learn in rhythm with my movements, she said. She also hated not being able to eat a candy bar! Still, she loved the challenge and advanced enough to take sixth place in her division at the state competition. When I was out there on the floor, I just waited for the music to start Packer, Stacy Palmer, Jill Palmer, Paul Parker, Ernie Parks, Chris Parsons, Cherry Patchin, Robbie Patrick, Brian Patterson, Scott Pauley, John Pearce, Kelly Perrin, Merile 23OfSopl1omores survives dream of gymnastics and concentrated on my first move. Then I would just be lost in the music. It was a very free feeling, Tami said. But now that part of Tami's life has come to an abrupt halt. Doctors have diagnosed her as having a rare back disorder found only in five percent of the population. The lower vertebrae are not connected bone to bone, but are held together by a thin fiber. The pain of activity has forced her to quit the sport that she loves. At first I just blew it off and said I'd do it anyway. I didn't really realize I couldn't do it until one day when I stayed after school with some friends. They were messing around on the bars, and I was watching and thinking I couldn't do it, but really wanted to. I just got up and began a couple of easy moves and the pain just shot up my back and straight to my heart. That was the first time it hit me, all I could do was cry, she said. Tami is trying not to let this hinder her position on the Wildcat Drill Team. She also plays on an indoor soccer team. Although there is no hope of being a gymnast again, she still loves the sport and has fond memories of Galaxy and all those hours of hard work. It was a great time in my life, she said.

N35 Q K f V 1 Writing opens world for Carolyn with pen pals By Lisa Weidman hen it comes to writing letters to foreign countries, prob- ably no one spends more postage on the project than Carolyn Ford, a sophomore. Since l have 29 pen pals, she said, writing letters is my favorite hob- byfa Carolyn likes French, German and Spanish languages. She is currently in French III and plans to take German and Spanish in the next two years of high school. I started writing to pen pals one day when my French teacher asked if anyone wanted to buy one for S1 I took him up on it, she said. She added, Now I belong to sev- eral international organizations where I got most of my pen pals from. My favorite pen pal's name is Michelle Ramsdale, she said. She lives in Knuzden, England, Carolyn added. For her birthday I sent her a shoe box full of 'American stuff and a stuffed animal, too, she said. The cost was S17, she added. She, in return, sent a tape of 'British Rock'. A friend of mine and I, after hearing it, laughed until we cried, said Carolyn. Postage for a single letter is 40 cents. Anything over normal weight increases by a dime each time, she added. Other countries I really enjoy hearing from are Ireland, Sweden, Ja- pan, The Netherlands and Australia, she said. Carolyn said, All my pen pals are thrilled to write to a 'Yank' but most have preconceived ideas about Ameri- ca and Americans. A frequent question is 'Do you drink beer or smoke a lot? Also mentioned a lot are discos and baseball, she added. She said, I receive letters daily or every other day. I have learned so much from these wonderful people, so no matter where I go in the world I will be able to fit in, she said. Carolyn is also in American Field Service QAFSI. She is very hopeful that she will be chosen to go to another country this summer. I am a person who gets bored very easily so I need a challenge every minute, she said. AFS is an organization dealing with the exchange of students for a better understanding of different cul- tures, added Carolyn. When I get older, she said, I would like to live in France, England or Australia. I like different things and pen pals and AFS are definitely different types of things, said Carolyn.

Sophomores sponsor programs, dance By Eugene Phillips he phrase, acting like a sopho- more, inspired many different connotations this year. These ranged from the traditional idea that the sophomores are the kids of the school, to the new view the administra- tion was taking of the class. I sense a class determination to be successful, said Dr. Ted Lewman. So far we have been. The class set a goal of earning 31,000 before Christmas for charities in the area. They accomplished this by collecting canned goods for Ronald Mc- Donald House, for which they received commendation and news coverage from TV Channel 4. It was the largest single contribution of canned goods that Ronald McDonald Hous has receiv- ed. One of the other fall activities the class participated in was homecoming. The sophomore float's theme was pointing the way to victory, which won the prize for originality. The class Willard, Teri Williams, Bill Williams, Kari Williams, Lonnie Williams, Marlo Williams, Shelly Williamson, Ray l l Wilson, Andrea Wilson, Brian Wilson, Cindy Wilson, Tim Winstead, Kim Wolgamott, Karla Wood, Lori Wright, Charles Wright, Chris Wroten, Brian Yaghoubian, Rosita Yearsley, Nichole Young, Kenny Ziefle, Jeff 236fSopl1omores finished early on Friday night, Oct. 15, and had a pizza party before the parade the next day. They did a really good job for their first float, said Dr. Lew- man. The sophomore class didn't wait until fall to start getting organized, as the officers held meetings all through July and August. The officers discussed ways in which they could make the tra- sition from junior to senior high easier for their classmates. They decided that they would put up welcome signs and write a manual to give to each sopho- more in the fall. They wanted it to be a book without rules, said Dr. Lewman, a place where they could look to find lockers, rooms or solve any other prob- lems they might have. The manual was written and put together by the class officers, who came up with class favorite: Funky Winkerbean was the comic strip favor- ite, and Thundar the Barbarian was their favorite cartoon character. '- .. f 2 ,f Z h , For the major springtime activity the sophomores held a dance for the freshmen and seniors. It was held to welcome the freshmen, and thank the seniors, said Dr. Lewman. We let the seniors in free, and charged the other classes. We just wanted everyone to have a good time. The sophomore class wanted to start something that they would be remembered for, so they decided to start a support center for substance abusers. The kids wanted to do some- thing to change the school, said Dr. Lewman. The center was called emotions in motion. It was started in March, and meetings were held on Wednesday evenings. Guest speakers came to speak on substance abuse, child abuse and all other forms. The purpose is to provide help by and for teens, said Dr. Lewman. They don't try to give advice, but to try to get the people to trust a qualified counse- lor. 1, .QL ' 'H fi 11 f vf WJ! ty if 7 Dr. Ted Lewman discusses his sophomores with Mr. Roy Stephen- son, top.

Sophomoresf23 7 Student aides assist in class, By Troy D. Wickman he saying goes, behind every good king, there's a queen, but it could say, behind every good teacher there's a student aide, as well. Many students occupy themselves by helping out a particular teacher. The reasons for being an aide range from just getting out of study hall to a genuine interest to help a favorite teach- er. Whatever the reason, most teachers agree that their aide is worth their weight in gold. Mrs. Jan Stoll, Spanish I 8z II teach- er, said, Teachers should have the option to have one. It teaches the aide responsibility and organization, which could aid in future occupations. Aides are worthwhile for teachers - there should be a grade given as an incentive not to goof off! said Mrs. Connie Davis, English and creative writ- ing teacher. I think aides can be life-savers, said Miss Tracy Creech, social studies teacher. Reasons for having an aide include helping the teacher as well as having the student gain experience. Mrs. Julie Scott, Spanish and French teacher, said that she has special needs since she is a language teacher, therefore she looks for someone in an upper level class to be her aide. Cristyne Cochran, aide to Miss Kim Alexander, English teacher, may be working toward a teaching profession, just as is Mrs. Stoll's aide, Theresa Sims. Mrs. Annette Dailey, English teach- er, said that having and aide is an opportunity to get to know an individu- al student better. The student aide has many duties, some more out of the ordinary than others. The usual tasks include grading papers, running errands, and keeping up with the bulletin board. However, a student aide can also be what Mrs. Dailey describes as a Go-for - go for this, go for that! Mrs. Davis' aides work on the literary magazine, the Mind's Eye, and Mrs. Scott's washes office duties cooking utensils. Mrs. Dailey's aide writes a thought-provoking message on the chalkboard each day. Mrs. Alice Hamilton is in command of a small army of LA office aides. Her aides make copies for teachers, do schedule changes, run passes, take phone calls and do errands to keep the office running smoothly. The reaction toward the student aides is an enthusiastic one. Very effi- cient and. cooperative, trustworthy and helpful, and extremely well, are just some of the reactions by teachers toward their aides. The student aide is the shadow, the background in the picture of the teacher. This sometimes unrecognized individual works under a teacher with the satisfaction of knowing a job is being well done as his only reward. Mrs. Dailey said, fMy aidej inspires the 'teacher' in me. -.

A1desf239 Teaohingrequires composure, maturity A By Eugene Phillips - teacher is one who teaches -or instructs, according to Webster's Third New Inter- national Dictionary. The dictionary also says that teaching requires in- telligence, maturity and devotion. The teachers of Blue Springs High School displayed all of these traits each day. During the hours that seemed to just drag on and on, and through all of those periods that the time just slipped away, the teachers held their composure. The days that a lecture on cell struc- ture, or causes of a great war,.or the proper uses of noun clauses, turned into a discussion on the time someone dropped a hand gernade during the Vietnam War, or the politics of a foreign country, or the time someone tried to steal gas from a Winnebago, or the latest scoop on current gossip, werehan- dled by their teachers as easily as falling off a ladder.

Faculty As easily as these fun times were handled, so were the serious times. These were the times when a lesson plan was followed, when a complete idea was explained, when their true colors showed through. Few.students realize how difficult it is to stand in front of a class and teach. To really reach the students, and get a message across to them, is the mark of a true professional. At Blue Springs High School, whether the mooti of the day was light and fun, or serious and busi- ness-like, the teachers stayed com- posed and professional. They show- ed true Wildcat spirit.

Meinershagen, MAT Art Science teacher horse trades on side By Allison Burke n old addage that horse traders are the most crooked group around is certainly not true for Mr. Bob Gurney, science teacher and horse trader. Mr. Gurney said that he not only makes money from trading horses, but that he enjoys it. Mr. Gurney belongs to several horse related organizations: the Amer- ican Quarter I-Iorse, the POA - Ponies of America - and the Missouri Quar- ter Horse Association. I started becoming interested in horses when I was in school. I found out that I could make money, said Mr. Gurney. Like trading cars, If someone has a horse and wants another one that I have, then we trade. Many times there is not any money involved. Sometimes Mr. Gurney breaks young horses, then sells them. I could sell 10 broken horses in the time it wouldttake to break a new horse. Most of the horses are broken for plea- sure or steer roping. a Mr. Gurney learnedimostly from experience. Every time someone cheats me, I chalk it down to expe- rience, he said. I-Iis father is also his partner. They sell at auctions and sales many times. Or if someone has a horse that they would like to sell, Mr. Gurney might buy it, then try to resell it and make a profit. y Mr. .Gurney said that it usually depends on the economy as to how many horses he sells or trades. It's usually around 300-500 a year. But last year, only around 200-255. Mr. Gurney said that it is his inten- tion to make money, but to be fair when he does it. Mr. Bob Gurney clowns around in science class. Faculty! 243 Zvi TL?-:wiv v' I 4, Teachers work parttime to earn extra money By Allison Burke tudents are not the only ones who-decide to work part time. Teachers many times find the need to take a parttime job. Miss Kim Alexander is one such teacher. She works in the summertime as a waitress at the Royals Stadium Club. I used to work at Arrowhead Stadium, so I knew some people al- ready when I got the job. She has worked so far only one summer at the Royals Stadium Club, and will work there again this summer. She usually only works at the Club when the Royals are in town and then about 15 hours a week. During the year, she also has a parttime job as a homebound teacher. The state has a requirement of only five hours a week per student. I'm certi- fied to make sure they do their work, she said. Mrs. Linda White is another mem- ber of the faculty who has a parttime job during the year. She works at Stix, Baer, and Fuller as a salesperson. I got the job in November 1979 as a Christmas job.

When Mrs. Chaney started selling the cos- metics, she did not have, as of yet, a job at the high school. I wanted to meet Blue Springs citizens, she said. Mrs. Chaney said that having the extra job provides extra spending money.

All new teachers have taught pre- viously. For some, though, it was not on a full-time basis. Many new staff members taught in smaller schools and had such concepts in their schools as open lunch or an open campus, A cou- ple said more than one high school was in the district where they previously taught I think maybe students in sm ll schools have a greater sense of school pride and spirit or maybe it's just more noticeablefl Ken Vance, new teacher and girls' basketball coach, said. Ron Settle, social studies, once taught at 0'I-Iara High School. l-le said he thought he was a little closer to the students at O'l-lara. There were 900 in attendance at the school when he taught there. A new teacher with 13 years expe- rience in IlIinoiS, Molly Clemons, said the discipline isbetter at Blue Springs, but the halls and stairs are more crowd ed than at the school in Illinois The students also seem more activity or rented here, which is mce I like the strong extracurricular program, she said, Both schools happen to be very sports-oriented. What would the new teachers change here? Responses varied, but the primary one was smaller classes. Others included only teaching five pe- riods a day instead of six, having more structure and having more discussion between different disciplines in the school. f Other suggestions were to place less emphasis on music, add more elec tives and not emphasize sports as much Mrs Cindy Berryman suggested 'to find a way to instill more pr d eff I 1 ff New teachers at BSHS included Mike Bolton, W Cindy Berryman, Ron Settle and David Cook above Three new teachers playing reindeer in the Christmas assembly are Diane Goodman, , Ken Vance and Jan Stoll, left ,, I I . . .

Custodians keep things running in order By Susan Sowerby eing a maintenance man at Blue Springs High School is more than making sure that everything is in working order. Gene Watson has proved that in the past six years he's worked here. To most he is known as Muddy Buddy. This nickname came from his son's involvement in a club at high school. In this club, if one was called a result wasn't exactly what he was hop- ing for, especially this year. It seemed to be used more last year, said Gene. Gene says the things he likes most is working with the problem kids, kids with learning and physical disabilities, because he gets a chance to teach them things they can't learn in books. Also because when you're down, you need someone there to pick you up, Muddy Buddy, that meant they were A-Okay. Gene decided to try it out here and see how well it caught on. The 2-48fFaculty ff X 'ff Xf- XX 0 .XX ,ug 'mf ,fwffi ZX , f f , . ff, said Gene. Gene's advice to all students is to get an education. Because without it it's hard to make it in today's society.
