B M When the 8:10 bell rang on September 5, the halls of Broad Ripple became filled with sleepy-eyed individuals. Mixed emotions were evident as students staggered through the hallways trying to find guidance centers, relocated classes, and lockers. Once the shock of the first day wore off, Ripplites fit into the daily routine. Almost immediately teachers began the drudgery of homework and tests. Clubs began reorganizing with membership drives and elections, teams began after-school practices and the cliques gathered at their familiar surroundings: the music hall, parking lot, and Compton and Haverford streets started buzzing with activity. In the beginning the individuals had their own interests and personalities, but as the year progressed ideas became synthesized as common interests and concerns developed. Little by little, the pieces began to fit together to form Broad Ripple High School. HAPPY DAYS ... In order to learn about the fifties, the 20th Century America class held a sockhop in the Girls ' Gym. After the dance, costumed students attempted to break the world ' s record for stuffing a telephone booth. S Wt  ' • tr  w V 4   «mmi MORNING HAS BROKEN . . . With the winter sun rising late and setting early, Ripplites had to adjust to shorter days. FALL CELEBRATION . . .

Due to several additions by different architects, Broad Ripple High School appears to be a puzzle. TARGET PRACTICE . . . Located in the basement, the rifle range provides an opportunity for ROTC members to sharpen their aim. 4 Opening 5S HI- ;M@fc ffM taM to m m@imm Rome wasn ' t built in a day. Neither were the Great Pyramids, the Taj Mahal, or Broad Ripple High School. Although Ripple ' s building was not considered a great architectural masterpiece, the many wings and renovations gave it an unusual flavor. Hallways led to nowhere and two separate second floors added to the confusion. Possibly, Broad Ripple was the only building in the city where one had to go downstairs in order to get upstairs. The 38 staircases led the LONG FALL . . . Looking down from the third floor is enough to make Ripplites afraid of falling down a stairwell. 1 ,775 Ripplites to dark corners such as Biology 301, band on floor 3 1 2, and many people were never quite certain where the ROTC room was. Students struggled to beat the crowds in Grand Central Station , and attempted to explain to visitors why only one of the two gymnasiums was in use. It was hard to know how to dress when the newer, air- conditioned rooms were too cold and the older, steam-heated rooms resembled saunas. But even though BR was a network of mass confusion, students had little trouble finding any one of the 16 exits when the final bell rang. PENTHOUSE VIEW. . . Although the swimming pool is a myth, the air conditioning units are another means of cooling off. PRESSURE COOKER . . . Found in a nearby building, one of three boilers heats the school.

What students didn ' t realize was that they actually spent less than 1 5 of their total waking hours in school. This left Ripple students with time to waste however they pleased. Some people held part-time jobs, while others babysat, did yard work, or just borrowed from Mom and Dad. These activities provided Ripplites with new acquaintances and experiences that could not be acquired at school. Students relaxed by attending sports events, concerts, and parties; and there were many impromptu football games, sledding expeditions and nights-out-with-the-guys . The different cliques all pulled together for Homecoming, the Musical, and community services. Although Ripplites filled their spare hours with different activities and people, each episode was a contribution to overall life at Broad Ripple. HOME SWEET HOME . . . Diane Elrod helps in the renovation of her family ' s new home on New York Street, near Lockerbie Square. FROM TRASH TO TREASURES . . . After the 1978 One Acts, David Radel attempts to reorganize the prop room. NEVER CAN SAY GOODBYE ... As the evening draws to an end, a guy and his date pause For a few moments before going home. Episodes 7 Students anxiously await three months of leisure From the first day of school, and continuing through tests, marathon study sessions, and late-night rehear- sals, one thought haunted the minds of Ripplites. They dreamed of June 8 and the beginning of summer vaca- tion. At times it seemed that the great day would never arrive, but it did, and when the final bell rang students scat- tered to the four winds in search of fun and sun. Concerts such as the Doobie Brothers, Kenny Loggins, and the Commodores and movies like Grease, Heaven Can Wait, and Animal House entertained Ripplites while emptying their pockets. The WNAP Raft Race and the State Fair also helped make the summer of 78 memorable. The French Club journeyed to Montreal and Quebec City, Canada; while junior Richard Marks and Helen Stotler spent eight weeks in France as part of the IU Honors Program. Other Ripple stu- dents attended Girls ' and Boys ' State in Terre Haute, the Learning About Business workshop at Wabash Col- lege, and the National Leadership Conference in Michigan. To earn money for these activities, students worked at local swimming pools, grocery stores and shopping centers. Summer was also a perfect time to sleep late or catch up on the soaps. When September 5 arrived and school began, Broad Ripple ' s students remembered the summer that was, and began to dream of those summers yet to come. SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE ... The rides, food and shows of Kings Island lure many Ripplites to Cincinnatti, Ohio each summer. r T •i ' . W. ;v =£ ETZT I, THE LONGEST RAFT . . .

Computerization hit the Math De- partment with a new computer and printer. The new computer aided in regular classroom situations since it had the ability to hook into a TV set and display the print out. The com- puter class enrollment rose to forty- five this year, partially because of the addition of a second-year class. Blue and red painter ' s pants and new T-shirts added more variety to the already lively routine of the Off Broad Ripple Company, while the football team showed off their new white home jerseys as they tackled their opponents. As in former years, new teachers joined the Broad Ripple staff. Brenda Cushenberry, Maurice Huckleberry, Gary Bippus, Cheryl Bole and Larry Neukam added their teaching skills to those already present. The coexistence of the Riparian publications offices was split by a move into separate rooms. The news-magazine moved to 225A. Like many neighbors, both staffs laughed, worked and complained together. . 10 Changes MAYBE ANOTHER ART CLASS . . . This is the f reply from Miss Monica Floyd, the new freshman counselor. This added to her duties as Activity Director. BEEP, BEEP, BEEP ...

Filling up the dance floor, Ripplites boogie til they just can ' t boogie no more to many popular tunes. 12 Prom Prom perplexes anxious students I just washed my hair, and I can ' t do a thing with it . . . These are the typ- ical words spoken by so many frantic girls as the gallavant from bedroom to bathroom getting ready for their prom; and on Saturday, May 13, Ripplites were no exception. The evening sun finally set, and with a straightening of the bow tie, or a combing of the last hair into place, Ripplites were off to such places as King Cole, Stouffers, Hilton, and even the Hyatt Regency for dinner. After feasting on many delectable dishes, 150 enthusiastic couples filed into the doors of the Convention Center. Prom-goers swayed to the tunes of Midnight Sun, as they played the theme Always and Forever , from the hit album by Heatwave. The song and dance became interrupted halfway through the evening for the crowning of prom king and queen. The lucky couple, Fawn Kimbrough and Kerry Murray danced arm in arm as others watched. When the clock struck midnight, no cars turned to pumpkins, or formals to rags, but the 1978 prom came to an end, not for good though, for Ripplites will go to proms always and forever. THEIR MAJESTIES ... The newly-crowned Prom King, Kerry Murray, and Queen, Fawn Kimbrough, pose for the traditional portrait. THE AGONY OF DEFEAT?. . .

The restoration of old homes, an interest common to many Ripple families, is demonstrated in the Old Northside. 14 Community Recycled paper, now it ' s homes ANT ' S EYE VIEW . . . Looking up from the ground, one gets the feeling of the tremendous heighth of the Soldiers and Sailors Monument. Not many homes contain trap doors which lead to the basement nor were Dossibly a link in the Underground Railroad, but Diana Elrod has a home A ith both. She, along with many other Ripplites, shared the interest of ' estoring old homes throughout the community. Finding an unusual home such as this, and bringing out its jnique features was an interest :ommon to all those involved in this Dasttime. Not only did the restoration of tomes take place, but a familiar community sight underwent change hroughout the course of the year. Monument Circle became ndianapolis ' own yellow brick road vhen it was closed off to everything Dut pedestrians and the street was completely bricked. Ripplites took advantage of many of the services the community has to offer, such as providing places for them to shop, eat and just have fun. Providing services went two ways though; many Ripplites participated in such things as the Jerry Lewis Telethon, by taking contribution calls and counseling at Muscular Distrophy Camp in the summer. Making people happy, O.B.R.C. performed at many nursery schools, nursing homes and the Deaf School. The community functioned by revolving in a circle; people gave as they took so no pieces were lost. Ripplites did their share and piece by piece the community thrived. SITTING PRETTY . . . Fanning his beautiful feathers, a peacock serenely sits at the In- dianapolis Zoo just waiting for viewers.

Community 15 Ripplites find excitement in Naptown ' s nightlife Considering that good ole Indy did not match the hustle and bustle of some disco-lit city like Los Angeles or New York, Ripplites managed to fill a few evening hours with excitement. Depending on the individual, ac- tivities ranged from dancing and party- ing to bowling, skating and movies. Faced with spare time and the no- spare-money syndrome, it seemed as though Indianapoiis had nothing to of- fer. However, there was always willing company to sit around the house and watch television, listen to albums and play a friendly game of euchre or backgammon. A long telephone con- versation could sometimes compen- sate for lack of transportation. Some of the lighter moments centered around discussions of a favorite T.V. show, Saturday Night Live, or the movie Animal House. Evenings were also filled with more constructive energies dealing with homework and part-time jobs or babysitting. School activities such as football and basketball games, com- mittees and club meetings also served to fill the nighttime hours. So Ripplites realized that they didn ' t have to call the city India-no-place. There was always a nightlife, even though it was sometimes hard to find. PINK ELEPHANTS? ...

It continued, flourished, prospered and thus it is an annual tradition. After an enthusiastic pep session, the troups of Rocketeers crowded along the sidewalks of Broad Ripple Avenue. Finishing touches on the floats were done in the wee hours of Homecoming eve, but floats were done on time. Following the band, the colorful floats with riling slogans filled the streets. Each club had their own car with designated candidates. Art club won the float contest with Rocket the Rebels as a slogan. The parade ended only too soon for the hungry Ripplites who raced to the finger-lickin ' -good chicken dinner. Although the sky seemed cloudy and rain looked likely in the afternoon, things cleared up for the first Homecoming victory in 4 years. Homecoming King and Queen candidates tingled with suspense as they anticipated the outcome derived from a student vote. Clad in his football uniform, Eugene Anderson accepted his trophy for King and Sherry Walker, hers for Queen. The Homecoming dance was a celebrative event with disc-jockey Mike O ' Brian, from WNDE, presiding over the dance floor. TOUCHDOWN! . . . The crowd roars at the winning score; 34-14 against Roncalli.

The Concorde went to Dallas, the Racers left Indy. The world was no longer just turning, it was changing rapidly. History repeated itself as Vietnam went to war, this time with Cambodia and China. Aldo Moro was executed and the Shah of Iran was overthrown. Civil wars broke out in Rhodesia and Nicaraqua while the Sahah desert continued to expand, causing thousands to starve. The dollar continued to decline in value. There were great improvements on the horizon, however. It appeared that ONE SINGULAR SENSATION . . .

A SALT II treaty was being finalized and America was at peace. Proposition 13 passed in California and set off a nationwide protest over taxes. The sun didn ' t always shine in Indy as the Racers and the Loves left town. For awhile it seemed that the Pacers would also fold, yet they somehow survived. Even more tragic were the Burger Chef murders and the Speedway bombings, Within four months, however, there were indictments in both cases. A national magazine called Indianapolis the last big city without an image. By March of ' 79 that statement was no longer valid. The downtown circle was renovated and a new tennis complex was built to house the National Clay Court Championships. Plans were considered for a Football Stadium and a new park. Local theaters were thriving and two Broadway productions came to town. Many Ripplites still prefered the cinemas where they laughed at Burt Reynolds and John Belushi one day and screamed in horror at Halloween and Midnight Express. Many were terrified in real life by the possibilities of cloning and test tube babies, however, most remained confident that the world would solve its problems, one by one. 9a B-A-A-D BACKHAND . . .

Who has the stupid tennis balls? Now don ' t forget to open the door before you walk in. Frantic questions and last minute advice filled the hall and backstage before the performance of the 1978 One Acts. The plays were presented Oct. 4 and 5, and were directed and performed by students in an intimate three-quarter setting. The three one acts included: The Ugly Duckling directed by Helen Stotler and Jay Booth; Stage Directions directed by Celeste Jackson and Karen First; and Visitors from Chicago by Liz Appel and Renee Hylton. Another kin d of excitement prevailed at the Spring Choral Program May 19. Each vocal ensemble performed songs from their year ' s repertoire. Then, while Golden Singer hopefuls chewed their nails impatiently, Mr. Gene Poston read new members ' names for the coming year. Most participants agreed, all the rehearsing, missing meals, and late night studying was worth it! TRUE LOVE . . . Princess Camilla (Ann Cox) and her prince (Stuart Odle) share their feelings.

Mort (Clif Knight) accuses a defensive Stu (Joe Bill) of purpose ly causing his wife ' s (Kristi Clark) accident. Spring Production 23 Do blondes truly have more fun? Brunette discovers real answer How could a cute blonde have brown hair? The script of last year ' s Thespian play, MY SISTER EILEEN, had Eileen characterized with blonde hair, but Kristi Clark, who played the role, had brown hair. As show time grew nearer, the problem still went unsolved, yet they didn ' t give her a Clairol job, nor even make a trip to the local beauty salon — a blonde wig finally did the job. Ripplites enjoyed the play, which illustrated the hectic, fun, and sometimes crazy life of two sisters trying to make it on their own in New York City. Eileen ' s older sister, Ruth, played by Elizabeth Appel, seemed to be a little more responsible than Eileen and somewhat held the two together, yet craziness prevailed as the girls lived their lives. With the final performance of the play, Ripplites rolled right into another major production, the Ripples Acts. The acts ranged from IT ' S A SMALL WORLD, directed by Jim Hale and Sally Talbott; to WHAT THE HELL?, directed by Mark Hilton, Tony Stone, and Peter Chastain; to the winning act BATTY MAN, directed by Alan Hague and David Dawson. BATTY MAN, as the name implies, was a satirical take-off of the popular T.V. series, Batman. The plot involved the antics of Batty Man (Todd Blake) and Sparrow (Andy Dove) as they diligently fought such criminals as Kitty Litter (Flesia Dailey), Queen Tut (Debbi Dawson), the Puzzler (John Tensmeyer), the Smoker (Greg Jones) and the Duck (Brett Foster). Intermission entertained the audience also, as it featured various acts also performed by students. Janice Cummings took Best Intermission Act for her talent in singing. Ripple ' s traveling group of dramatists, O.B.R.C, displayed their acting ability on May 12, in An Evening With O.B.R.C. They performed a variety of mimes, short skits, and finished up with the ever popular human machine . The night was highlighted with the introduction of the new members and the serving of refreshments on stage afterwards. With the closing of the curtain, another dramatic year at Ripple came to a close, but the stage waited for many more actors and actresses to play scenes in the spotlight of the future. FROZEN SOLID ... As punishment for the greatest sin of all , inhabitants of hell are frozen in a giant ice cube in the act WHAT THE HELL? HANDS OFF . . . Struggling to get away from her over-friendly landlord, Eileen (Kristi Clark) uses all her strength t o push herself free. Spring Productions 25 ONCE IS NOT ENOUGH . . . Though many Ripplites pierced their ears once, the style changed to double and triple piercing as displayed by sophomore Theresa Rabin. STEPPING OUT IN STYLE. . . Dressed in sleek, slim cut jeans and a wool blazer, Jo Ann Williams exhibits one of the styles of 1979. 26 Fads Fashion 79 brings ' out of sight ' , yet eye-opening styles Remember the fairy tale, The Emperor ' s New Clothes ? To some Ripplites, this story became more or less a part of life, with the introduction of see-through jeans. The plastic jeans, conveniently equipped with air vents to prevent fogging up, opened many eyes at the disco and on the street. The fashionable way to wear the novelty pants included any kind of body suit, yet Danskins prevailed. For those who didn ' t feel quite so exotic, Levis, Sassoon, and Calvin Klein designer, slim-cut jeans filled the spot of most common pants. Ripplites accented their looks with wool blazers, vests, loose flowing skirts gathered at the waist with belts, clogs, heels and the ever-lasting fashion in footwear — boots. To go with the flashy, colorful lights of the disco, shiny, satiny blouses, pants and dresses set the style. For even extra sparkle, some people wore sequined tube tops showing slightly under a silky blouse. Straight out; curl in; this laid the grounds for hairstyles of ' 79. The perm craze included kinky, crimped, and wavy hair; but whatever the style, heads could be seen bouncing through the halls with full, curly locks. Pierced ears came in once, then again, as many Ripplites double and even triple pierced their ears. Students wore a larger earring in one hole, then accented that with a smaller, daintier earring in the other. Keeping warm and in style at the same time, many Ripplites layered their clothes, wearing vests under blazers, sweaters under vests, and piece by piece they put their looks together.

Two and a half hours and one musical later, the curtain falls amid the tears, laughter, hugs and congratulations of fellow Golden Singers. If someone had asked me what it was like, I probably would have replied; hard work, long rehearsals, a sore throat, and the boys who never did learn how to sit in their kilts. More A RARE MOMENT . . . Fiona (Lynne McCardle) and Tommy (Greg Dehnke) discover their sincere feelings of love for each other. important to me was the strong feeling of unity among the cast and crew. The production really came together. It is an indescribable experience to know that something everyone believes in so much is actually a success! Our enthusiasm must have carried over into the audience. Later, Mr. Don Owen, Music Consultant for IPS, congratulated us, saying Brigadoon was the best musical in the last six years. For me, there will never be another show like it again. Brigadoon will live forever in our hearts. THE SCHOOLMASTER SPEAKS. . . Mr. Lundie (David Schultz) explains the Miracle with the help of his wife (April Austin) to Jeff, Fiona, and Tommy. OUR DAY IS ENDING . . . Before the town rests in darkness, Tommy (Greg Dehnke) tells Fiona (Lynne McCardle) of his decision to return to New York. Musical 29 Rock concerts not just music There is more to a rock concert than meets the ear. Music usually is not the only thing that is included in the price of a seven dollar concert ticket; one also gets entertainment. This entertainment varies from a frisbee game before the concert to a dazzling performance on stage. This year Ripplites had a chance to hear Excuzzzzzzzzz me, from comedian Steve Martin, watch The Commodores jam, witness Billy Joel jump from the top of one piano to another, or even see Alice Cooper ' s head chopped off. Each performer had his own way of keeping their concert crowd under control. Lighting, backdrops, and special effects also add to the entertainment. This year ' s performers used everything from the Statue of Liberty appearing behind The Little River Band to the stage exploding in front of Styx. The amount of entertainment one gets at a concert all depends upon the performer, but there is more to a concert than entertainment — there is also music! SARA SMILE . . . John Oates jams during the Darryl Hall and John Oates concert at the Indianapolis Convention Center. WILD AND CRAZY GUY . . . Comedian Steve Martin keeps Ripplites laughing with some of his most familiar routines. STATUES OF LIBERTY . . .

Each individual effort had a certain quality, a unique type of contribution to the total team objective. When Ripple squads took the floor, it was clear that the members had all given the extra 10% to make the result come out right. On occasion, the games were lost, but the spirits seldom faltered. Practice took long hours and was very often not the highlight of the day. The hard work, sore muscles, and bruised egos all healed in good time after the season ended. A mutual respect developed between teammates as well as coaches, and many new friendships were formed that lasted long after the vying for sports ended. Throughout the year, many different people took a shot at the chance to prove themselves in a chosen sport. Whether good or bad, they received a satisfaction from competing. PROFESSIONAL TIP . . .

Strong hitting was one of the highlights of an otherwise mediocre season, said Coach John Tremain. Mike Jeffers led the Rockets in home runs while David Boyd was considered the leader of the squad, Boyd also strengthened our pitching, Tremain said. Although they got revenge for a 4-2 loss to Northwest in a rematch of the first round of the City Tourney and downed Ritter 10-3 in round two, the Rockets fared better in the Sectionals than in the Tourney. State Finalist Ben Davis had to struggle to come from behind in the sectional finals. The game went to the final out in extra innings. The Junior Varsity team played to a 1-8 season. Steve Jeffers and Mike Gunnel were brights spots in our season, said Coach John Woody. They may be starters on the Varsity team next season, he added. TO STEAL OR NOT TO STEAL. . .

Although the girls ' team didn ' t have that experience, they had a very unusual season. One of the experiences that both teams had was trying to return Coach Paul Sinclair ' s 101 mph serves. Neither team had much luck, but Theresa Rabin, freshman, gave him credit for the girls ' success and called Sinclair the best coach in the city . Sinclair ' s coaching helped Cindy Randa and Karen Mille r, sophomores, upset the defending state champs, North Central High School; and got the Randa-Miller doubles team seeded number one in the City Tourney.

Golfers survive; heads stay high Although the golf season was troubled, it was enjoyed. Both boys ' and girls ' teams suffered drastic losses; the boys ' team yielded a 1-18 record while the girls ' team went 0-6. Inadequate support handicapped the teams. Standard golf facilities were unavailable for their use. Boys ' golf coach William Smith stated, Golf is a game for gentlemen, and is not self supportive. He went on to say that the rhythm of the game is opposite to that of football and basketball, so the game was not popular at Broad Ripple. Students rendered their interest to activities that were more self supportive and not as slow moving. In spite of the numerous losses and the lack of golf facilities, pride prevailed.

Complementing each other, the boys ' and girls ' track team came into the spotlight with encouragement and support. Since the harriers fell to a 2-6 deficit on the season, individual accomplishments were overshadowed. Junior Odis Bledsoe established a time of 42.0 sec. for a new event, the 330 yd. low hurdles. Malcolm Orton, junior, and Curt Irminger, senior, both reset the high jump record to 6 ' 4 with individual efforts. Designated Most Valuable Runner, senior Daryl Johnson tallied the team high in scoring. He placed tops consistently in the 440 yd. dash, the long jump and also anchored the £80 relay team. Sophomores Dwayne Blackman and James Nelson, and junior Eugene Anderson were also members of the record shattering 880 relay team, who posted a new time of 1:30.8. The girls ' team consisted of only thirteen athletes, including returned veteran Tracey King, who competed on the boys ' team last season. The start of a girls ' track team brought some insight. There was a great deal of enthusiasm among the female athletes. The girls ' team didn ' t have their own track coach, so boys ' team Assistant Coach Scott McCluckie coached them. Because Broad Ripple has so many good female athletes, a girls ' team sounds good, and I ' m all for it, stated Head Coach Pat Koers. An improved season is expectd for next spring. The teams have planned to place strict emphasis on both cinder and field events. The 440 yd. dash, 2 mile run, high hurdles, and shot put should show improvements. JUMPING HIGH . . .

Track 41 Rockets break even season; seniors perform well The mid-season loss to Chatard stunned Rocket enthusiasm, and the slump prevailed throughout the year. Only occasionally did the spirit heighten. The Rockets conceived shutout victories over the highly respected Arlington and Lebanon teams. Throughout the year, the team was unimpressed with their performances. Yet they molded a good season record out of inconsistencies and competitive week-after-week rivalries. Good individual achievements implemented the year which finished with five wins and five losses. Voted most valuable player, junior Stacey Toran was honored on the All-City team as a defensive back. For the Rockets, Toran had 35 receptions for 721 yds., and 8 touchdowns. Also receiving the honor was senior Jay Street for the center position. From a team point of view there were some prominent figures. The Rocket attack ended the year with leaders offensively and defensively. Junior Tracey Steward led the rushing game with 573 yds., and 6 touchdowns. Quarterback junior David Christopher led the passing attack. He threw 41 percent for 11 touchdowns, hitting his leading receiver, Toran, most of the time. Defensively, junior Steve Adams tallied 66 tackles, and six sacks. Senior Ty Cheatum was also considered strong. As a middle-line-backer he racked up 13 sacks on the year. We started the year with great expectations in the development of a passing game as a strong point. But we had a few disappointments and had to resort to the running game more often. Still we played some good football, explained Head Coach Pat Koers. The Rockets also had a good kicking game. SET HUT! . . .

Working with some of the smallest freshman in the city, Coach John Tremain was able to use this size to the team ' s advantage. In the three games lost by the freshmen, all were lost by small margins. Coach Tremain felt that without a fumble in both the Chatard and Washington games, the freshmen would be City Champs for the second time in three years. Tremain received much help from two additions to the coaching staff, Coach McCluckie and Coach Newton, who will be taking over the freshmen team next year. Coach Tremain will move up to the reserve level. Leading the team were Mike Dorsey, Alfie Hood, and Thurmon Lee. Middle linebackers Chris Murphy and Harold Hale led the reserve defense in holding opponents to less than 20 points in any one game. Although the defense did their job, the offense had trouble producing points, averaging 8.2 points a game for a 4 and 4 season.

A bright spot in the season was the first defeat of Howe in nine years. The runners compiled an unimpressive record of 6-9. Our record does not reflect the talent we had, said Coach John Woody. We had a poor preseason and the poor attitude toward practicing continued throughout the season. The team was never really in shape during the entire season. Steve Jeffers was the most consistant of the Ripple harriers. Jeffers took first place in six of the 13 meets in which he competed, and was voted the Most Valuable of the cross country team. Tim Morris was considered the most improved of the members. He was able to cut over two minutes off of his time (15:39-13:34) during the year.

Coach Edwards felt that the team had the potential to be contenders in the next season. She also enjoyed the support that the boys ' teams gave the girls, and the basketball environment at Broad Ripple. While head Coach Judy Edwards was leading the varsity, Glenna Smith was busy leading the reserves to girls ' city finals. Coach Smith commented, The team had a lot of hustle, was fast improving and should make a great varsity in years to come. Mrs. Cain believed that the girls ' volleyball team had one of the strongest defenses in the city, but it could not make up for weak offensive play. Jackie Quarles led the team with her aggressive play. Mrs. Cain stated, The team never reached their maximum ability. Mrs. Cain hoped to send several of the players to camp since Cindy Randa was the only returning player to the varsity squad. Mrs. Cain also said, The team needed more coaching and less teaching.

Contorting his body in the air, Harold Coleman reaches under the backboard to scoop in the shot. The Rockets beat Arlington during the regular season. Hazards haunted the Rockets throughout the year. Also, the outset of the season did not foretell any spectacular promises. During city play, the Rockets faced disappointments as they fell short of an arduous goal. Discipline problems became painful in the Rocket lineup, as they ranged from injuries, grades, better shot selections, adapting to diversified game conditions, and aggressiveness on the boards. However, Coach William Smith praised the team ' s intuition, as they showed continued improvements and signs of performing complementary to one-another. They attained gentleman-like attitudes under adverse game conditions, recalled Coach Smith. The Rockets began the season haunted with the ordeal of playing seven consecutive games without a full lineup. But it opened the doors for many team members, as they assumed the vacancies that had appeared distant at the beginning of the season. They had the opportunity to gain starting positions and accumulate more playing time. Despite season frustrations, good teams like Arlington and Muncie South fell to the persistance of the Rocket attack. Nevertheless, they concluded the year as players and coach with a winning 8-5 record. The Rockets attained great efforts from their seniors. Invariably, the seniors held a clutch on both team and individual pride. The floor general, Charles Murff, devoted himself to keeping the team together and playing efficient defense and offense. Augusta Cannady contributed aggressive board strength and great offensive and defensive play. Second to Cannady in scoring was Harold Coleman; he delivered an outstanding season, and is expected to gain recognition as a potential All-Star candidate. Altruistically, sixth man Gregory Hall accepted the change in strategy and provided the go-ahead spark in pressurized game conditions.

Both the varsity and junior varsity squads received spirit awards, and varsity won the best overall squad award. Winning an award in cheerleading is easier said than done; many hours of strenuous practice went into each mount, cheer or chant. Ripple cheerleaders demonstrated this concept, as they practiced at least three days a week from March to late February, stopping only shortly for try-outs.

The team consisted of six players who tried out for the team. After the members were chosen they practiced after school by answering questions from books such as the Britannica Quiz Book and the College Quiz Bowl Book. Each team member was responsible for ten questions a week and department heads also contributed questions. All the games were televised on Channel 13. Science also required hard work, although the results were not quite as spectacular — an A in physics did not earn one an appearance on television. Although biology used to be a sophomore subject, many freshmen came to Broad Ripple with biology on their schedules. An advanced freshman biology class was started in order to accomodate these students. This enabled them to take chemistry as sophomores. GENIUS AT WORK . . .

On one side was a Broad Ripple student and his pencil, ruler, and compass. The emotionless adversary was a set of geometric figures to be drawn and a proof to be completed. To make sure that there was no cheating on either side, a teacher watched over the class looking for roving eyes or hidden calculators. Testing scenes like this took place at B.R. in every math class from basic math to calculus. Some students had to face a new opponent in Mr. Lechlitner ' s computer class; the adversary was TRS-80. The TRS-80 not only challenged students on test day, but every day in class by playing such games as Star Trek, Oregon Trail, and Blackjack. Several students became obsessed with the desire to win, even staying after school to try their luck. Instead of competing against the TRS-80, several game-loving students joined the Chess Club. The competition increased and soon a cry was heard for a school-wide chess tournament. Thus, the first annual King of Kings tournament was held. Back in room 208, determined students continued to lose chess games piece by piece. Meanwhile, in room 313, the war between perplexed students and the hard-to-find answers continued, and the tide hopefully turned in the students ' favor. PUZZLING . . .

During a skit about Judaism, World Civilization English students reenact a Passover dinner. Stumbling, feeling their way through the dark, unsure of what was around the next corner, running into faceless bodies — many students in the new humanities class, Creative and Communicative Arts, experienced this feeling for the first time. The trust walk was one of the activities of the new team-taught class. In this activity, students were blindfolded and led around by other students, through rooms, halls and grounds. The new class concerned relating through communication, and group discussion was the main factor of the class. Can you dig it? The World Civilization English class discovered they could, as they took on the role of archaeologists to create a new society. Students were divided into groups in order to create and bury artifacts that reflected their imaginary society. Then each group attempted to decode the cultures of the other groups. Other highlights of the year included constructing model cities, sculpting clay heads and performing religion skits. The Roaring Twenties . . . what could be a better time for the 20th Century America class to stage a cabaret? A 1940 ' s radio show and Fifties Day sockhop helped the students study other eras.

The remodeled Monument Circle and some examples of downtown architecture were also visited and discussed by the group. Everything from knights in shining armor during the Middle Ages to Hitler ' s Holocaust was studied by social studies students. Tests and quizzes, reports and current events, skits, speeches and decorated bulletin boards helped students understand different time periods and also provided a break in the sometimes monotonous drone of history.

A white painted face popping up in a store window, a big grin, a little giggle and suddenly the face was gone. Figures with clown faces could be seen dashing around the shopping center ducking in and out of stores and causing shoppers ' faces to light up and laugh along with them. The occurrence was caused by Masque and Mime members who were participating in a clowning workshop. The members painted themselves up, went to a shopping center and just clowned around. It ' s always fun to do something different was possibly the attitude of the M M members as they found out just how crazy they could act when they were hiding behind a shield of white make-up and a silly smile. The Thespian Society and Masque and Mime Association gave students a chance to tryout and participate in their annual plays: the One Acts in October, sponsored by Masque and Mime and student directed and the Thespian Play in March, directed by Mrs. Davis. New members were inducted into the two drama groups in the fall, winter and spring. The inductions consisted of performances by the O.B.R.C., speeches by the presidents and ceremonies of induction. Masque and Mime also had a hay ride in the fall, a picnic in the spring and attended a One Act Play Festival on May 5. Thespians attended the festival too, which consisted of various workshops and performances and was held at Warren Central High School. The Thespian Troupe also went to the State Conference held in Connersville on April 27-29. The O.B.R.C. and other groups from different schools performed as well. There, were classes and workshops which one could attend. Awards, scholarships and a trip to New York were some of the honors claimed by different performers. The weekend could be remembered as one of awards, games, performances and entertainment. Although bright lights and audiences could very quickly cause a stomach full of butterflies and a set of chattering teeth, it was always fun to try something new and give the actor inside a chance to find his way out.

After singing with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, Golden Singers began preparing for their production of the musical Brigadoon in November. With the conclusion of the musical, Christmas performances became the concern. Performances at places such as the Education Center, Monument Circle and the Salvation Army enabled the Golden Singers to spread holiday spirit. After the Christmas rush passed, Director Gene Poston had time to go over some note and composition study, in preparation for the Major Work, The Messiah, at Christ Church. Smiling faces kept Swing Choir on their toes at Christmas with their repertoire of happy-go-lucky carols.

Although most of OBRC ' s routines were old faithfuls, occasionally a new face made its way into the crowd. Luckily, the routine was a smash and soon became a part of the regular repertoire. Speaking of new faces, Wellington Worm and Clarissa Caterpillar became part of the OBRC family also. They were a couple of puppets made by two of the Company members. Each member created an original puppet with materials that varied from an old sock to a string of painted styrofoam balls. The puppets opened up a new branch of drama for OBRC, making them a troupe of both actors and puppeteers. Along with a profitable Christmas wreath sale, Clef Club ' s annual auction was also a big success. This was a favorite of the students because it was fun and it soothed the savage hunger. Clef Club members gathered their flour and sugar, then baked the goodies, such as cupcakes and cookies, to be auctioned. These goodies, along with White Elephant items, auctioneer Mr. Ralph Bedwell, and the rights to throw a pie at any teacher, made for an interesting event with many surprises.

They participated in an interstate meeting to exchange information at the Indiana Federation of Students of German at Howe High School. Dinner at the Cafe Heidelburg, financed by selling advent calendars, gave club members a taste of German culture. Creating pinatas kept the Spanish Club occupied for many hours.

There were more student related stories as the staff constantly searched for feature and news stories that would benefit Ripplites. Catching and keeping interest remained first in the minds of each reporter and writer. An estimated 5000 words per issue, a consistent layout and more photos kept the stuff working for A+ issues. The usual twelve issues were narrowed down to eleven, due to the omitting of a November issue and the publication of a sixteen-page Christmas edition on December 14. More research was done on features than in years before, stated David Albean, editor-in-chief. Writers dug down into their stories, instead of just scraping the top for the easily-seen facts. Approximately fifteen people occupied staff positions during three periods a day and many after school hours. The position of Ad Editor became necessary because of the larger amount of ads to handle. The newspaper also sponsored a trip to Ft. Benjamin Harrison to see the publication and media facilities there. Quill and Scroll, a club for future journalists, started off the year with Homecoming. In February they had their induction of members. The ceremony included reading scrolls about the aspects of journalism and lighting candles which symbolized the tenets of journalism.

Parents of Riparian staffers thought their children were hard at work in room 225. What they didn ' t know was that they sat surrounded by piles of green sheets and layouts plotting the next move to be taken by Rippy Rocket ' s Army. Often staffers had to sift through piles of empty McDonald ' s sacks, Pizza Hut bags, and Burger King wrappers looking for pictures of the building, only to discover that news-magazine had come to borrow them for an article. However, all was not confusion. Editors Scott Shoemaker, Rob McKay, Elizabeth Appel and Kim Ranger attended the two week Indiana High School Journalism Institute last summer so they could further learn how to plan and organize a yearbook. Riparian staffers traveled to a FOOD FOR THE FAMILY. . . Loaded down with McDonald sacks containing shakes, hamburgers and fries, Mrs. Julie VanUtt brings in provisions for the starving Riparian staffers. CREATIVE CHAOS . . . Among the litter of Coke cans, food wrappers and various yearbook paraphenalia, staffers Beth Hill and Elizabeth White slowly but steadily work to meet the deadline that is rapidly closing in on them. yearbook seminar in St. Louis November, 9-12, in order to test their skills and learn more about producing a yearbook. Workshops covered such necessities as selling yearbooks, writing copy, taking pictures and drawing layouts. Workshops did not take up all the staffers ' time. A good part of it was spent in the hotel ' s swimming pool, sauna or in getting ready for a night out on the town. Develop that picture! , Where ' s the film for this spread? , What have you done with my picture? These demands were often heard by photographers as the deadline dates drew closer. The photographers played an important part in developing the yearbook; and, although they often felt tempted to go home and watch Charlie ' s Angels, they reluctantly stayed at school to take and develop pictures. The least worried of all were the parents. As the sun rose and they awoke to find their children ' s beds empty, they felt reassured to know that they were busy struggling to beat the morning mailman to the mailbox. Oh well, what they didn ' t know couldn ' t hurt them. PHOTOGRAPHY STAFF: Tom Bailey, Albert West, Andy Peck, Mike Goldsworthy, Paul Clark, Chris Turley, Scott Shoemaker.

Working on stage crew wasn ' t all fun and games. Crew members spent long hours building sets for every production from One Acts in the fall to Ripples in the spring. They also made sure that each set, backdrop and curtain was in place on the nights of the performances. Foundation make-up, eye shadow and rouge were new experiences for the males who participated in the productions. Each cast member sat through a sometimes harrowing make-over as the girls on make up crew transformed ordinary high school students into characters of all ages. Although they realized that the make-up kept them from appearing pale and ghostly many boys could be heard rebelliously murmuring, But I look like a girl. Using different colored lights to set the mood or highlighting an actor with a spotlight was the job of the light crew.

Orange Aid had been in existence practically since Broad Ripple High School began. In it ' s early years B.R. was small enough so that every girl could belong. Times have changed, but Orange Aid is still around. The annual freshman tea had a little different style — held in the cafeteria instead of the auditorium, with the main emphasis on a group discussion, the style was much more casual. The discussion allowed the freshmen to ask questions in order to learn more about the school. Orange Aid members also traveled to Riley ' s Children Hospital to give a Christmas party to the patients. Toys and food were given to the children and games were played for entertainment. Key Club also did their share of charity work by traveling to nearby shopping centers to help the Kiwanas Club collect money. The students rang bells and people dropped coins in their cups. The money was divided up between several organizations. Key Club ' s membership grew to 22 people, enabling them to do bigger and better things; such as sponsoring the annual Christmas dance. In past years, Orange Aid had given the dance. KEY CLUB — BACK ROW: Patricia Link, Tom Shepherd, Don Foley, Clif Knight, Rob McKay, Andy Peck, Chris Turley.

A tin cup, dark glasses and a little old man yelling, Alms for the poor! may not have been enough to persuade students to give their extra change, but the Student Senate ' s activities were. During lunch periods, the Senate members waited eagerly outside the lunch room for kindhearted students to give their dimes and nickels. In less than two weeks they had collected seventy-five dollars in order to buy toys for the Teen Toyshop at Central State Hospital. The Senate bought various toys, took them to the hospital and set up shop. This gave the patients an opportunity to purchase their Christmas presents without leaving the hospital. Student Senate also worked hard to get the library passes for Honor Roll students. These passes enabled students to use the library facilities during their free time. Rushing, in Mrs. Dearing ' s Service Learn class, did not mean hurrying. The Rush program was a special presentation by the students in her class for the future freshmen of Broad Ripple. Eighth graders from several schools were invited to come and receive a closer look of the school and learn about the many activities offered here. The program ' s purpose was to show Broad Ripple in all its angles and encourage the future students to get involved when they come. A number from the musical, a bit of OBRC, a slide presentation, some songs sung by Swing Choir and selections from the band were a few of the things included in the show. Not only was it informative, it was presented in a creative and entertaining way. The Audio-Tutorial Lab was the recipient of some new equipment, such as taped lesson kits and new sets of dictionaries and encyclopedias. The Audio-Tutorial Lab gave help to slower students and specialized in one-to-one tutoring. Shadows do appear in bright places too, like in a hospital or a modeling agency. These shadows weren ' t dark figures that go bump in the night, they were students participating in the shadows program. The Career Center, under the direction of Mr. Scott McCluckie, designed this program for students wishing to learn more about their possible future careers. One day a week, a student would work with a professional in the field of his choice. This enabled students to feel a part of the job and observe it from the working point of view.

Three-piece suits, big tops, spike heels and a wide variety of fashion could be seen as 1400 students made a mad exodus to the auditorium to be photographed. Seniors anxiously awaited the arrival of their proofs. For some, it was hard to decide between the collegiate look with the sport coat drapped over the shoulder or the pose where photographer Lee Wendt caught one with a sneer on one ' s face. The choices for the girls included the pose tenderly holding a rose. Once yearbook poses and packets had been chosen, seniors had to wait the usual ten weeks for the arrival of their pictures. Faculty members were no different from the student body when it came to pictures. Just as carefully as the seniors, they choose the perfect pose to appear in the book. Once pictures arrived, students swapped and traded for pictures of friends. These pictures became pieces of memories of their year at BR. SONG AND DANCE ...

Everyone 109 ' SENIORS: Surveys reveal air A survey done by the RIPARIAN YEARBOOK on the senior class revealed some interesting and juicy tidbits about Ripple ' s graduates-to-be. Because only 4 5% of the class responded, it was easy to conclude that the other 55% could not write, or that they were just as lazy as they had always been. Of those surveyed, 95% said that they planned to continue their education in college or vocational school. Three percent planned to work, two percent looked forward to a military career, and one lonely soul planned to sleep. A surprisingly large percentage (42%) of those surveyed said that they would graduate with well over the required credits. Special recognition and envy goes to the person who said that he she would graduate with 52 credits. Math, science, music, and business were the most commonly selected majors. While students elected these subjects, most of them felt that their high school curriculum was beneficial to their career choices. This survey has proved that seniors maintained a dubious level of sanity after four years. Seniors told us how they glued trays to the tables in the cafeteria, attended every class every day, passed chemistry by some miracle, and probably craziest of all, someone managed to swipe a fetal pig from a Biology II class. As these and other events in the lives of the seniors seem a bit offbeat, something must be said of the Ripple tradition that seniors [ 1 did continue — a large BR faithfully appeared on the door of Chatard ' s gym.

This is proven time after time as millions sit glued to their TV sets watching the Super Bowl, the World Series or the NCAA Play-offs. No sooner does one season end than another begins, and it is possible to remain glued to the tube for twelve months out of every year. But what can people do when their sport is out of season? They play it on a hand-held computer. Ripplites discovered that they could play games such as football, basketball, and blackjack on an electronic device that resembled a combination between Odyssey and a pocket calculator. The sounds of blips and bleeps became commonplace as students learned that computer games helped pass the time in study halls, lunch hours and boring classes. They also provided a way for them to prolong their favorite sports and feel that they were participating in them. Seniors 113 • CINDY HILL Nat I Honor Society 3-4, Thespians 3-4.

Computer fumbles schedules, dictates lives Few things are getting easier to do in today ' s complex society. Making out schedules and distributing report cards are one exception due to the new Honeywell computer. Back when schedules were made by hand, the Ripplite never learned how to deal with an electronic monster or how to pass Calculus 2 just after completing Basic Math. Now, students can get a full education complete with all kinds of educational frustrations. Due to advanced technology it is now possible that a student can sign up for Geometry, U.S. History, French, and Speech, only to get Algebra, Chemistry, and Spanish. Of course if a Ripplite should not be pleased for some reason with his class assignments, all he need do isfill out a request-for-change form. Most of the requests are met, however, once in a while a trouble maker tries to change the program that was especially designed for him. A typical schedule would read: study periods 1-6, lunch seventh, Government eighth, and Economics ninth. No matter how much a student thinks he really needs such a change, it still won ' t be made, while a few years ago a weak-willed counselor might have given in. Another advantage of the computer is that there can be 39 students in period three and only eight in period four. All of Broad Ripple ' s student body and administration can be proud of the expert services given by the computer which so many have learned to take for granted. — •.

The Ripparian reporter looked into the crystal ball and was told that for five dollars the future would appear before his eyes. The gypsy told the Ripplite to ask the crystal ball questions about the future. The student asked such obvious questions as who would be the president of the U.S.A., who last won the Nobel Prize and who won the last Super Bowl. The answers were Leonid Brezhnev, Nicholas Seldon, and the Indianapolis Fumblers (in an upset). The student started to leave, but the gypsy asked why he hadn ' t asked about students at his high school. Before the Ripplite ' s eyes passed ten years. All the school celebrities were at a reunion party. Chuck Horitz, of suspension list fame, appeared as a mechanic, and J.J. Walker IX was the leading scorer for the Indiana Pacers, with a 5.7 average per game. Liza Bernhardt was the star of the biggest box office hit of 1989 — Jaws Meets Superman as John Travolta Looks On. There were hundreds of other all toofamiliarfaces. The president of the Junior Historical Society was back in the year 1400 after falling through a time machine. Sue Ann Williams, winner of the National Math Contest for Building a computer, was an unemployed math teacher, replaced by her own computer. Suddenly the images were gone and the student realized that he knew the fate of all his friends, but not his own. With a mysterious smile, the gypsy told him that in 1989 he would still be wasting his money on fake fortune tellers. ■ JAMES PRANGE CHELSEA QUARLES: Student Senate 1-4.

I don ' t need to say that I was a little scared, what with starting at a new school and all. Anyway, I went to the main office and was told that I would have to be in a senior guidance center. After I found out my students ' names my day went downhill. First, I could not find the cafeteria. Then, when I finally did find it, the smell of last semester ' s coney dogs and pork fritter manhattens still lingered through the entire room. I had a horrible premonition of what was to come. My premonition was correct. I sat down right in the middle of a stale ice cream sandwich that had completely melted. Then my students came and sized me up. I guess I did not fare too well because I was hit with three paper airplanes, an Egg McMuffin, five closed milk cartons, and 13 rubberbands. After moping myself off with a Kleenex, I was hit with six greasy cheeseburgers. I noticed a couple of boys playing football in the middle of the giant room. I was nearly hit by a badly thrown pass. Three other boys were betting who could jump the farthest — over a mob of giggling girls. Finally the alarm sounded, ending the chaos (otherwise known as senior guidance center). I was nearly run over as a herd of flakey seniors rushed to get out. I don ' t blame them. I just hope that the future guidance centers are not like this one, otherwise I shall follow many a preceeding teacher to the funny farm.

When psychiatrists cost too much and parents take problems too seriously, the only place to turn is Dear Crabby. Crabby holds no degrees and has had two divorces. Through these experiences, she has learned the answers to all problems. One doesn ' t have to worry about people discovering the true identities of the writers when such names as Fatso, Giggly, Curious, and Dumbfounded are used as signatures. Mrs. Crabby believes no problem is too delicate to discuss, and as a result has written about such controversial subjects as the best color for a rug (brown), whether to plant daises or tulips (tulips), and on which side of the street to park (the right). One wonders why Crabby hasn ' t yet been named Time ' s Woman of the Year for her contributions. Maybe she ' ll get her just rewards next year. 120 Seniors JUNIORS: Cabinet influences Class of ' 80 This year the junior class planned for an excellent night with the seniors . . .The Junior-Senior Prom. Through a great deal of effort, the Junior Cabinet was able to obtain the place they wanted and raise money for the expenses. Meeting regularly, the Junior Cabinet planned skating parties, candy sales, car washes and many other fund-raising projects to make the Prom a success. Falling into place the juniors became upperclassmen taking a position over the underclassmen. Juniors became active in many different functions of Broad Ripple by participating in school plays and music productions. They also shared events like taking PSAT, college entrance exams and buying class rings. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS — BACK ROW: Samuel Elliott, John Tensmeyer, Andrew Noble, Kelly Daniels.

Waiting fo r his bus, David Wilson stops at McDonalds for a bag of trench fries. Ripplites seemed trapped between two conflicting desires; the one to eat all the banana splits and hot fudge sundaes in the world, the other to diet. Doctors saw it as the classic battle between good and evil at a time weak-willed choosing evil, at a time when people tended to be less healthy then ever before. Philosophers might blame it on easy living conditions and economists on extra money in the pockets of irresponsible spenders. Most Ripplites blamed it on their taste buds. They had been raised on sugar coated cereals and sweet snacks for lunch; and, despite the risks of getting cavities and fat, a large segment of Ripplites continued to travel down the river of life, eating ding dongs and drinking 7-Up all the way. One didn ' t find the most popular foods in the Broad Ripple cafeteria, nor were the popular foods advertised as supplying the daily minimium requirements. The food eaten by many Ripplites was likely to be attacked for its high sugar content. What was this very popular food and why was it considered a public enemy by the American Dental Association? The mystery cuisine was junk food and there were many junk food junkies at BRHS. The problem reached epidemic proportions as students ate twinkies, sipped Coke and munched on potato chips. The symptoms couldn ' t be hidden from school officials as sororities sold candy in the halls. So being very clever, the administration decided they would take advantage of the situation. Clubs sold carmel candy bars, imported gum bears, and Tootsie Roll penny banks to raise money and also the students ' average weight. Tom Goode, Teresa Goodwin.

For the boy, the most pop- ular styles were the center parted, feathered back and the medium afro look. The girls held to the more traditional styles, featuring shorter hair with curls on the sides; afros also remained in fashion. With the advent of disco dancing, a multitude of hairstyles emerged. Movies such as ' Saturday Night Fever, ' helped promote many of the hairstyles. The kinky look became popular along with permanents and body waves as the hairstyles changed at a rapid pace.

FRONT ROW: Sherry Kohlmeyer, Carlotta Arthur, Ruth Roettger, Tina Fair. Sophomores Do It Better was a T-shirt and also a point that the Sophomore Cabinet attempted to get across to the rest of the student body. They wanted to make their presence known, so in honor of the sophomores they had a T-shirt designed. To prove to the rest of the school that the sophomores really did it better, the cabinet planned a semi-formal dance for Valentine ' s Day. Other functions that they planned were disco dance contests and after school dances. The 1978-79 sophomore cabinet consisted of fourteen students elected to their positions by their peers in the guidance center. The people who represented the class were; Shari Himes, President; Andy Johnson, Vice-President; Sandy Sherard, Secretary; Jerry Burris, Treasurer; Carlotta Arthur, Kim Daniels, Tina Fair, Deborah Hart, Sherry Kohlmeyer, Carla Lottie, John Panyard, Keith Reid, Ruth Roettger and Martha Sallee. These people served one year, until elections when they could be chosen again. One sophomore said that she was glad to see that the sophomore cabinet was getting in the ball game and starting to swing. Sophomores 127 New drivers cause additional hazards for Ripplites ' - Students listened to the lectures, took notes and studied hard every day. Students went to summer school and even stayed after to learn more. A teacher ' s fantasy? No, just a typical day in Driver ' s Education. If there was one thing all Ripplites loved, it was a car. But until a student had a driver ' s license, not even a Mercedes-Benz was good for a cent, let alone the $20,000 it costs. The quickest way to get a driver ' s license was to take Driver ' s Education and to get a waiver. Getting that waiver became the obsession of every student, as the prospect of going out to drive-in movies and traveling to Kings Island for the weekend chanced before their eyes. But all their hopes and dreams were dependent on getting an A or B in the Driver ' s Ed. class. To get a waiver, many students considered bribery, but finding no teacher that would take money, they dropped the idea. Another way some Ripplites had hoped to get the waiver was by forging the principal ' s name, only to find out that the school had to stamp it. Out of sheer desperation, the students studied hard and when driving with their driving instructors, made sure to stop at all the red lights. Hopefully Ripplites remembered everything they learned in Driver ' s Ed., but it seemed unlikely. Ripplites used one-handed steering, popped clutches, and sped down highways. Several students made driving a religion and became fanatics. All their fun was ended by the police who ticket and by insurance companie ' s high rates. For better or worse, driving students were typical teenagers, and their views toward cars showed it best. Victoria Jessup. Andrea Johnson, Julie Johnson, Kim Johnson.

Actually it ' s the Rocky Horror Pictu re Show. The Rocky Horror Picture Show was a different kind of entertainment. Some people even stayed up until midnight and dressed up as characters in the movie. Then just when Ivan Ivan (a secret Riparian Reporter) began to get bored and wondered why people saw this film so many times, a pound of rice landed in his lap. Ivan began to feel uneasy and soon he saw all the audience pulling out water guns to shoot each other. Ivan was too soaked to sleep, but the film was getting boring again. All that changed when the crowd jumped to their feet during the Transylvanian Bump. When the song was over, Ivan found himself in the back rows, trying to hide, lest someone see him in this circus. At that moment, Dr. Benson asked the crowd, What are you doing back there? and thousands of flashlights beamed on Ivan. Now Ivan was thoroughly embarrased and was ready to give in to peer pressure. The man dressed in a nurse ' s uniform next to him asked if he wanted a party hat and whistle to blow at Rocky Horror ' s birthday party and Ivan said yes. After this, Ivan ' s fall was quick and he degenerated to whistle blowing, hip bumping, and singing the Transsexual Transvestite from Transylvania. Finally it was over and Ivan began to reflect on what he had just experienced he realized that it was more like an Animal House than any movie and went to sleep. Si 130 Sophomores Bleary eyes, weary minds cope i The sandman was calling and the student was too tired to put up much resistance. He had to quickly figure out how to sleep in class without anyone noticing, especially the eagle-eyed teacher. Ideas rushed through the student ' s head as various plans of action were considered. The first idea was to put his hand over his face so that no one would see his closed eyes; this was uncomfortable. He slowly lowered his head and then carefully placed his hands over it. Finally, the student closed his eyes and let his body relax. Images started to appear in his mind as the lectures became inaudible. What was the problem and who was to blame? According to several students it was the teachers who spoke with a monotone voice and showed films made in the early 50 ' s. Other students blamed the courses and still others blamed the devil. For some reason, teachers seldom saw things that way, but tried to correct the problem of students sleeping with several creative ideas. Among these were the teacher who played an accordian in class and the one who told morals that could be drawn from history. At least one teacher considered taking snapshots of sleeping students and sending them home to parents with their report card. By the end of the semester, however; almost every student learned how to hold back the ever-present yawn. Some fought off the sandman to save face, others to avoid a guilty conscience, but most of the students did it simply to pass. £j£fiJM a Chris Adams.

For seniors, it was a familiar event so they knew what to expect. Grades became important to juniors; they realized that those little letters could affect post-graduation plans. Some gave up while others studied long hours to keep their grade average. For these students, report card day was a time of smiles and sighs of relief. Sophomores had had a year of experience, so they were no longer surprised. Always optimistic, each promised friends that next time they would get an 8.0 average. For freshmen, these grades were the first from their high school teachers. They hoped and prayed that their grades were not as bad as anticipated. The freshman who got straight A ' s beamed a smile that not even the weather could surpress. As Ripplites looked at their grades, many thoughts came to mind. For those less fortunate students, there were hopes that, like lightning, bad report cards never strike twice. 132 Freshmen ft 9 © 8..C u S f Lisa Henderson, Chris Hensel, John Hickman.

Ripplites, being good Americans, followed the national fad and took vacations all over the country and the world. Ripplites left town whenever they could, seeking suntans, gifts from relatives and a change of pace. Some Ripplites went south to Georgia to see the President ' s hometown, others to the mountains of North Carolina and many went to Florida. Florida became more than another state — it became America ' s Fantasy Island where any wish could come true. People went to Miami, Naples and Tampa, not to pick oranges, but rather to lay in the sun all day and go to parties all night. There were plenty of vacation spots that were seasonal, but Florida was always paradise. Much further north, about 4,000 miles further, was Canada, one of the few countries with both a large French and English speaking population. Broad Ripple ' s French Club took a bus full of students to Canada, where most found out just how little they remembered from the classroom, and let out a sigh of relief whenever they saw an English menu. Three Ripple students were selected to go to France for the summer where they had a chance to see the beautiful French countryside and cathedrals several centuries old. Every Ripplite who saw Paris learned that there was more to it than the Eiffel Tower, Champs d ' Elyssee, the Louvre, and the Arc de Triomph. Of course, there also was the French Riviera and Versailles. Some things, however, were the same no matter where a Ripplite went. One thing every traveler did was to write back to Indy and tell the folks there how much fun they were having and how much they wished you were here. Another one of those universal experiences was getting lost in a strange city and not wanting to ask for help. Despite the long lines at the airports, running out of money, the occasional homesickness and other problems, Ripplites loved traveling. 8.«.©S© Marian Stevenson, Ronald Stone. Patty Storris.

Jones when asked how well the administration at Broad Ripple works together. The administration goal continued to be Quality Education for All. Principal Jones oversaw the general operation of the school and had many other responsibilities. He gained the greatest satisfaction from student achievement and was proud of the fact that students excelled in all areas of the school curriculum. He enjoyed watching students in sports, on the stage and in the classroom. Working closely with Mr. Jones were Broad Ripple ' s Vice Principals. Mr. Robert E. Casey (Student Personnel) was mainly involved with academic curriculum and attendance. He looked forward to the day when everyone ' s schedule came out perfect, but admitted that it was an impossible dream. Mr. Tommie L. Curlin (Building Operations) was in charge of nonacademic curriculum, buildings and grounds. He would be very happy to have a day when the tardy bell rang and he saw no students in the halls, knowing all had made it to class. As the deans, Mrs. Shirley Loyd, Mr. Dan Gallagher and Mr. Jethroe Knazze were more familiar with the student body. They were concerned mainly with the student problems, absences, and new students. Mrs. Loyd got great satisfaction from affecting positive change in a student while Mr. Gallagher enjoyed being the sponsor of Key Club. A friend to seniors was the Director of Guidance, Mrs. Marilyn Dearing, who coordinated the guidance, counseling and testing programs. Mrs. Dearing enjoyed her peer counseling class which got students to share the positive aspects of Broad Ripple with each other. Broad Ripple ' s administration continued its open door policy, so if a student had a problem there was someone ready to help. Work to improve student-school relations included giving students a chance to review and comment on the administration ' s rules and regulations through a newly-formed Student Advisory Council.

When asked why he began teaching, Mr. Eisenbarth recalled, I decided to teach history because it was my favorite class throughout high school. As for Mr. Beaman, he came from a family of teachers and, that ' s about all there was to do during the Depression. Concerning recreation, Mr. Beaman enjoyed playing cards, fishing, and swimming while Mr. Eisenbarth preferred more serene hobbies such as reading and furniture refinishing. Both men noticed big changes in styles and attitudes towards learning, attributed to busing and the growth of the Indianapolis area.

But for some lucky students, Friday was also payday. This meant that they not only had to decide what to do all weekend, but also how to spend (or not to spend) their money. And, although they might not have wanted to admit it, jingles on the radio, larger-than-life billboards and tacky TV commercials all influenced how students spent that money. Gourmets had to make a choice between a hot and juicy hamburger or ' adelicious change of taste; while music lovers were bombarded by promises of lower prices on everything from tapes to turntables. Of course when sales were announced, crowds rushed to the malls in search of that perfect outfit. During the holidays, it seemed that the airwaves were jammed with testimonials for Vegamatics and Tapeless Measures. But no matter what they offered, advertisements helped students spend their money, dollar by dollar. FILL ER UP . . .

Alsup, President CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF ' 79 Phone 1-317-2S3-9439 160 Economy L GREEN SHEET PRICING AND RISK-FREE STEREO I There are three things to evaluate before investing your dollars in stereo equipment: 1) did you receive thorough product information; 2) what service benefits have you been offered; 3) have you been provided with any guarantees following your purchase Stereo equipment is a big investment, and Graham ' s Stereo City wants their clientele to be satisfied with their investment. We strive for perfection by offermgquality.information, service, and guarantees. SEVEN-DAY MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE If after purchasing your components from us you decide they don ' t fit your needs, or if for any reason you want to return the equipment, you may do so (in perfect condition, with all cartons, paper-work, etc.) within seven days and receive a check for your full purchase price within seven working days from the day of return. OUTSTANDING FACILITIES We have our carefully matched systems on display so you can see what your dollars are buying. Stereo City doesn ' t stop with sight alone though. We want you to be able to carefully compare sound between units So we provide a speaker demonstration room where you can relax and com- pare the sound value between the speakers we carry Likewise, we offer you a chance to listen to some of the finest equipment on the market in demonstration rooms designed to match as closely as possible the acoustic characteristics of a living room. HELPFUL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE SALES PERSONNEL Stereo City ' s salespeople attend special product seminars to become well-informed consultants for you. Then they strive to educate and familiarize you with the products we carry They welcome your questions, because they want to fulfill YOUR needs Professional advice and a properly supplied and satisfied customer is their goal. NO HIDDEN EXTRA COSTS When you buy a system from Stereo City, every thing is included We don ' t surprise you with extra costs for wires and cables. You receive whatever is necessary for normal operation, at no extra charge. WARRANTY SERVICE Stereo City assists and aids their customers beyond the retail floor We give our customers the full attention they deserve, by servicing only what we sell Stereo City is au- thorized to perform their own warranty service. Our profes- sional technicians will service a product in our own shop if they feel they can repair it back to its top quality condition. If a unit needs more specialized attention or can be repaired more quickly, we will send it to a technician who specializes on that brand or type of product. TEMPORARY LOANER POLICY Stereo City is willing to loan you a piece of equipment if your unit will be in our service shop for more than 30 working days We do not have to exercise this policy often, but sometimes due to circumstances beyond our control, such as availability of parts, we will put this policy in effect (de- pendent upon the availability of loaner equipment). GRAHAM ' S ONE YEAR SPEAKER TRIAL If within one year of purchase date, you decide to buy more expensive speakers, Stereo City will allow your full original purchase price toward the normal selling price of any of the more expensive speakers we carry. (Returned speakers must be in undamaged condition and include all of the original packaging materials and instructions.) DEFECTIVE EXCHANGE No manufacturer is perfect, although most do maintain rigid quality control standards, and it is possible that one of our customers may receive a defective piece of equipment. Therefore we ask that you save the warran- ty registration cards unmarked, retain the packing ma- terial and instructions for thirty days in the event that something is defective (aside from minor ad|ustments we can correct in the store) and we will exchange it for a new unit. STEREO CITY TRADE-IN POLICY Stereo City maintains a large and unique stock of quality used equipment. We are willing to pay premium prices for equipment that is being traded in, and will offer you what we believe to be a just and fair price. EXTENDED SERVICE CONTRACT AT NO EXTRA COST Instead of the usually short protection offered by manufac- turer ' s, we offer an exclusive five year parts and three year labor service contract on each and every recommended stereo system we sell. This protects you from service costs should anything go wrong. CONVENIENT CREDIT Stereo City offers several credit options: Master Charge; Visa; Graham ' s Revolving Charge; layaway service with no extra layaway charge; and long term bank financing (6 months to three years). Economy 161 For the Class of 79 A NEW BEGINNING Your graduation from high school marks a new beginning for each of you. Your high school diploma shows you have met the challenge of the past four years. And we think that challenge shows the true spirit of the Class of 79.

With the last 23 pages ready to go to the publisher, Kim Ranger, Scott Shoemaker, Rob McKay and Liz Appel take a few minutes to relax before proofs arrive. Just a few words to say Thanks After 400 hours of cropping, crying, checking, typing and double checking, the 1979 yearbook was completed; and to think that Mary Benedict didn ' t think that four editors would work. That ' s not to say we didn ' t have any problems. From the first argument over what to call Student Life (Episodes sounded too much like a soap opera), to discovering the omission of National Honor Society, we knew our task was not going to be easy. It was a small miracle that the 58 staffers were able to survive snowball fights, harassment from newsmagazine, photographers throwing desks, 30 pounds of hamburgers and 45 gallons of Coke to make the 176 pages nearly perfect. Although somewhat organized, we were still able to lose National Honor Society ' s negatives and constantly misplace the type guide. A big THANKS to Mrs. V., who was always there to keep us going and give us a shove when we couldn ' t get started. A special thanks to Mr. Jeff who tried to keep us in line and out of trouble in St. Louis. Staff, you were one of the greatest. It takes a lot patience to put up with four different orders from four different people who thought their ideas were the best. Remember, we all wanted the best book ever. The females wish to thank Clark Terrell for the Valentine ' s card. The males on staff, however, felt left out. A hugh THANKS to Lee Wendt for the great pictures and for understanding when an attempt to pawn his camera was unsuccessful. What would we have done without good ole Mom and Dad to put up with early morning hours and sometimes flagrant attitudes? Thanks for understanding why being in room 225 was more important than cleaning our rooms. And a special thanks to Mrs. Beaumont and C.B. Waterson. Mary Ellen was a great inspiration all year. 3- -i Acknowledgements 171 UJ CQ UJ a - ■ % % % ' I iKS. 41 172 Closing Ooppfcs ©utt ©1 §gi g% di Doctors all over the world spend large amounts of time and money trying to discover cures for cancer and the common cold. However, no one has yet tried to discover a remedy for the deadly disease of spring fever. Each year, when the cars began to emerge from the snow banks and the temperature began to inch above zero, it struck. Smiles grew brighter and hearts became lighter as Ripplites realized that it would soon be possible to park behind the school without getting stuck, and walk to 7-11 without drowning in snow drifts. Teachers despaired as students took to gazing out windows and dreaming of new clothes, Spring Vacation, and sunny days at the race track. Guys tried to escape from cutting the grass for the first time, while girls suddenly realized that last year ' s bikini was going to be about ten pounds too small. It could be said, perhaps, that there was no need to cure the epidemic of Spring Fever. The attacks were almost a remedy in themselves, bringing relief from the Winter Blues.

Although total darkness did not prevail on February 26, the sky grew dim as an eclipse took place. The next total eclipse over North America is not expected until 2017. CHOWINGDOWN. . . While Jeffrey Nelson tries to finish eating before the bell rings, Bonnie Lee pauses for a quick laugh. The countdown began; it was only days, hours, minutes until the final bell would ring. For some, the day was June 4, as 355 seniors assembled at Starlight to receive their diplomas. The class of ' 79 had spent their 35,040 hour high school career engaged in everything from taking Advanced Calculus to painting the traditional B.R. on Chatard. Seniors weren ' t the only ones to celebrate the final days. Everyone anticipated the magic words books will be collected tomorrow. This often meant that the Chemistry book could no longer be used to level the pool table or that a window would have to be shut because the m©wn accounting text could no longer prop it open. For some, there was the dreaded experience of cleaning out lockers. Some had elected to let candy and decorations build up as holidays passed, so they had to clean everything at once. This often meant removing a marshmallow Easter bunny from a final typing paper, and piling miles of streamers, pine branches, balloons, contact paper, snow and Easter grass into trash cans. Some wouldn ' t wait until June 7, the official close of school, as they packed for early vacations. No matter when the last day was, everyone eagerly anticipated a warm summer of excitement. 174 closing LOCKER LITTER ... By removing the decorations from her locker, Lee Ann Townley prepares for the close of school. GRADUATION FEVER . . .

Participating in a Boy Scout service project, Greg Jones and Chris Turley erase tapes for use at the Blind School Closing 175 With the end of the 1978-79 school year came the end of many other things as well. During the summer months, clubs suspended their activities, teachers and students temporarily ended their associations, and even friendships dissolved as thoughts turned away from school. It almost seemed that Ripplites became other people when they were away from the synthesizing atmosphere of the high school. They became associated with other jobs, interests, and people, and it would require the coming of fall to unite them again Seniors had gradually realized that they were no longer going to be pieces of Ripple ' s action, and that graduation was really final. Because of th absence and the addition of a new freshman class, each year was slightly different. Every individual in every class had contributed a little something of himself so that the complexion of Broad Ripple was constantly changing. The pieces fell apart, then came together again in new and varied combinatioi SOLITARY STUDIES Whil ' for a Closing Indianapolis Marion County Public Library Renew by Phone 269-5222 Renew on the Web www.imcpl.org For General Library Information please call 269-1700 L r lHJU UlJi£ ojU£ U ■ nsinsifiJI WW % nsiifiqiJI mmimmmiM.
