It could lx; any century from the late 1700’s to just a few decades ago. Several ( 1IS students vis- ited t he Red I louse (ant i- ques, soda fountain and mus(;um) in October. The establishment was a bank that went “under” during the Depression days. Each decade has a dawn, and each a sunset. Each presents challenges and dreams. And as each decade passes, it provides artifacts that become the antiques of the future. Is this tin; fate of digital clocks and pocket calculators? fg hi id Other Decades 3 Yes, ‘That’s Entertainment’ When Bob Dylan wrote, “Times They are a Changin’ ” was it a comment on society as he knew it, or a prophecy for the 1970s? Because “a changin’ ” we did! For example, from the beginning to the end of this past decade, change has dealt a death blow to school events and activities. Amid the unrest of the late 1960s, teens still held to traditional ways of expressing activi- ties. Homecoming, dances, proms, mardi gras and sen- ior trips remained high on the student’s list of priori- ties. However, the “dawn of the 80s” finds us with little direction or interest in tradi- tional activities. If this has changed, then where are we heading? The center of the student’s social life has been continu- ally drifting away from the school. Traditional values (even pride in the school) have been discarded by some. It is even tough to “get up” a good cheer block for Homecoming or sectional. This might be fine for the student following the trend, but what is happening to the traditionally active student? The athlete? The Club mem- ber? The student who has been somewhat intimidated by those who “put down” school activities? What do the 1980s have in store for schools and students? Some suggest that the pendulum is swinging back to more school oriented activities. However, from what we can see there is little evidence of a trend in this direction. And how have activities outside of the school changed? The trend in the media seems to be toward more sensational, escape entertainment. Need some time to reminisce? Consider the following examples from the late 1960s and the early 1970s: “Easy Rider,” “The Graduate,” and “M A S H.” “The 1970s included “The Sting,” “American Graffitti,” Star Wars,” “Animal House,” and “Saturday Night Fever.” And for those who feel that “once wasn’t enough,” there was “Godfather” and God- father II,” and “Jaws” and Jaws II,” and “The Exor- cist” and the son of exorcist: The Omen.” Or for those audiences whose tastes ran more in the line of disaster, Hollywood managed to destroy practically every- thing known to mankind. “Flicks” included “The Poseidon Adventure,” “The Towering Inferno,” “Earth- quake,” “The Swarm” and the “Airport” series of air- line calamities. You remem- ber, those were the ones with big name stars and ex- athletes making appropriate facial expressions conveying intended doom, as each plane teetered on the brink of no return. In the past decade the movie industry has mur- dered more gangsters than the Mafia has, or ever will have in its membership. It has also turned sweet little girls into growling, hissing devils spewing grotesque substances from the mouth. (Something which of course mothers, since the beginning of time, have forbidden us to discuss, or especially to describe in public). This was also the decade we were really “into it.” That is into jogging, into skateboards, into tennis, into racketball, into skiing and into roller skating. Controversies were also big in the 1970s. We were irate over: Vietnam, Water- gate, abortion, pollution, gay rights, women’s rights, nuclear energy, and ecology. However, the most ridicu- lous of all had to be Rock vs Disco. We realize that all of you classical fans sat this controversy out. After Viet- nam, Civil Rights and Watergate, it was a little dif- ficult to get extremely excited over musical intoler- ance. Nostalgia was “tops” with television viewers in the late 1970s. Game shows were recycled “just one more time” for the afternoon crowd. “Gilligan’s Island” inhabitants were finally res- cued and a “Father Knows Best” special was aired with the original cast members all grown up. “Mork” landed from Ork, poodle skirts returned to “Happy Days,” “The Wal- tons” finally made it through the Great Depression, and Chevy Chase continued to take pratfalls on “Saturday Night Live,” however only on a guest basis. Finally, “60 Minutes,” a news show, sensationalized their way to the top of the TV ratings. As the topics became more extreme, the rating continued to climb. The dawn of the 1980s brought another change in television journalism. Wal- ter Cronkite, the “great white-haired father of broadcast journalism,” retired as CBS anchorman of the evening news. His replacement? Why, you guessed it ! That sex symbol of “60 Minutes” was selected. However, there are those who would “Rather” switch than fight! ACTIVI CHS finds winning way Victory was in the making on September 28 as the War- riors clinched their first sea- son win against Emerson 20- 0 . Halftime included the crowning of l.ori Morgan- roth as 1979 Queen. Lori was a member of I tonor Society, Pep Club, Student Council and Warriorettes. Lori received an engraved necklace, and other court members key chains to com- memorate the occasion.

Students participated in this week by dressing according to a planned schedule. The week was made up of Hillbilly Day, Favorite Sports Day, 50’s Day, Mourning Day and Red and White Day. A poster contest and pep sessions were held through- out the week to help “lift” school spirit. The Senior and Sopho- more team defeated the Jun- ior and Freshman squad in the annual Powder Puff game held at the end of the week. The score was 14-6.

Group members prepared and served approximately 230 ticket holders. The organization received approximately $724 from the sale of dinner tickets. The annual affair was held in the school’s cafeteria from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Proceeds from the event were used to finance the group’s expenses to regional, state and national competi- tions. Tickets were $2.50 for adults and $1.50 for chil- dren. Some of the ingredients used in the dinner were donated by area businesses.

The performances of the comedy, “Harvey,” were held in the Calumet audito- rium on the evenings of March 21, and 22. The story’s action centers around a small town man, Elwood P. Dowd, who adopts an imaginary six feet tall rabbit as his best friend. Other family members attempt to have Dowd com- mitted to an institution.

Couples gathering at the Salvatorian Hall in Merrill- ville danced to the music of “Sircus”, a local band. Jun- iors Myra Benjamin and Phil Werno were crowned King and Queen of the annual event. “Stairway to Heaven,” was chosen as the dance’s theme by the committee of juniors sponsoring the affair. Mrs. Karen Alvarez, faculty member, served for the first time as sponsor for the Junior Class. Spasoff Studio provided photographs for the spring formal dance.

Graduation 29 Clubs struggle during decade Vocational clubs have emerged in the past decade to become perhaps the most popular and effective of the school organizations. Serv- ice, booster and academic clubs have not fared as well. During the ’70s decade Federal money, under Title 4, became available to sup- plement vocational and career areas. Organizations in those areas also flour- ished. Calumet has four organizations in the voca- tional area. What has made voca- tional clubs successful? The combination of social activi- ties with skill contests and competitions. However, the service organizations have not been as successful. The groups have had little success moti- vating the self-centered stu- dent into making charitable contributions. At CHS, organizations do little to support national, state or local charities. They ignore the National Cancer Society, Easter Seals, Muscular Dys- trophy, Muscular Sclerosis, etc. Schools were once instrumental in raising funds for these organiza- tions. However, today stu- dents appear to be primarily concerned with what they can get out of the club, with a minimal amount of input. Another major fault with today’s clubs is their loosely organized structure. Rarely will one find the executive officers of a club holding a meeting to set up the agenda, prior to a meeting of the membership. Parliamen- tary procedures have all but disappeared in many organi- zations. A completely infor- mal atmosphere has taken its place. The problem with informality is that it pro- duces an atmosphere in which there is a lack of learning experiences, and encourages disorganization. Informality has allowed organizations to fall into a pattern where social desires prevail, and the club lacks purpose. For even college sororities and fraternities, which are social organiza- tions, work toward fund- raising goals. The lack of enthusiasm for school activities has been especially evident in the booster-type organiza- tions. Attendance in cheer blocks has fallen. Enthusi- asm and spirit are low prior- ities. Perhaps, the most disap- pointing case of club failure is in the academic organiza- tions. These are the clubs that ideally are an extension of the classroom. It is true that Biology, Chemistry, for- eign language, yearbook, newspaper, band and cho- rus still exist as organiza- tions, however, the groups with impressive attendance sometimes have geared their activities to social functions. Little extension of class- room, or service to the school or community remains. Academic groups that continued to follow a purposeful path, have often dwindled in size. Clubs and organizations must certainly mirror the behavior and attitudes of society. Today’s society is more self-centered, and Calumet’s clubs reflect this attitude. Honararies are the final major group of organiza- tions in the school. The two clubs at Calumet falling into this honorary category are Quill and Scroll and National Honor Society. Perhaps, the major frustra- tion for both groups is the general disinterest in achiev- ing this honor, or failure to hold it in high esteem. The Honor Society’s major obstacle is the current system for determining the members of the honor roll. For many years honor roll has been determined, not by grade point average, but by compiling all A’s or all A’s and B’s for the grading period. Under the current system, a student with all A’s and one C might not be eligible for honor roll, but he she has a 3.6 grade average. Another positive step that the honoraries might con- sider is to strengthen the requirements for member- ship during the first two years of high school. The requirements could then return to their present levels during the junior and senior years. This method might help to increase the prestige of the organization. Perhaps, the ’80s will pro- duce organizations more structured and meaningful in purpose. Many of the changes that occur in clubs will reflect the changes that society will make. Some individuals predict that inflation and the energy cri- sis will bring the school back into the center of the student’s life. However, if students continue to look at clubs as self-serving, then the organizations will con- tinue to be shallow in pur- pose. 32 Honor Society, Quill and Scroll, Student Council Quill and Scroll Society Doris Chadd, president Penny Tracey, vice president Lisa Orban, secretary Janet Burt, treasurer Right: Quill and Scroll: front row: Lisa Murawski, Donna Leviner, Doris Chadd; row 2: Miss Francie Blaney, Andrea Welch, Jayne Nance.

Mem- bers of German and French clubs traveled to area res- taurants to experience for- eign dishes. French Club members also attended a crepe dem- onstration at the high school in the spring, sponsored by the “Magic Pan.” Partici- pants of the organizations sold key chains and candy during the year to finance their activities. Bible Rap met periodically during the school year to discuss aspects of religion. News Bureau experienced a reshuffling during second semester. Members who prepared articles for area newspapers, used bureau time to fill in gaps for news- paper and yearbook staffs.

During the second semester, yearbook totaled only four students, and newspaper finished the year with only five. Dispite personnel prob- lems, the paper managed to publish 12 issues (9 four page, 1 six page and 2 eight pages) during the course of the year. Yearbook, with only four staffers completed a 120 Page yearbook. Chorus held two concerts during the year. The group combined with the Drama Department and presented a Christmas pageant for stu- dents and the community. Chorus members also per- formed a spring concert in May.

Approximately 65 C- Teens members traveled to Ross Care Center in Merrill- ville to carol at Christmas for patients and staff mem- bers. Another service activity sponsored by C-Teens was the annual Thanksgiving and Christmas food baskets. Members collected canned goods (donated by students) and turkeys (provided by the Student Council), and cre- ated baskets for needy area families. The Warriorette pom pon squad struggled through a series of changes. The group totaled only 16 members, and for the first time in several years, the squad did not meet daily during school hours. Group members did receive new practice uni- forms and a new sponsor this past school year. Miss Melissa Churley, new fac- ulty member, sponsored the spirit group that performed at football and basketball games, and at the Village Christmas Parade.

The Jazz Band played at the Christmas and Spring Concerts. They also held a concert on April 16, at the Southlake Mall. The CHS band held their annual Spring and Christ- mas concerts on December 13 and March 27. Band members participated in the annual solo and ensemble contest on February 2, at Highland Junior High School. Band members received 25 gold and 20 sil- ver medals. The Band also participated in the annual Blossom time parade held May 3 in Benton Harbor, Michigan. The CHS cheerleaders were very active during the school year. The girls sold ribbons and cowboy hats during the sectional week. The money collected from selling the ribbons and hats went for the purchasing of new uniforms.

Band, Cheerleaders 45 Action alters during decade A decade of athletic com- petition has produced a variety of changes in high school, collegiate and pro- fessional sports for men and women. For girls, perhaps Title 9 has had the greatest influ- ence on the scope of high school sports. The Federal law, passed in the early ’70’s, demanded that schools pro- vide equal opportunity for both boys and girls to partic- ipate, and to make available comparable funding. Since that time, girls’ athletics has grown at Calumet from the Girls Athletic Association (GAA), an organization for girls playing sports within the school, to a full program of athletic opportunities. Calumet’s girls now partici- pate in extracurricular (var- sity) competition in Cross Country, Volleyball, Basket- ball, Track and Tennis. Money may prove to be the key to the 1980s. A finan- cial “crunch” may be around the corner for both boys and girls sports in Indi- ana. With increased demands for funding of girls, and the expansion of boys sports, the structure for funding is being stretched to its limits. Currently Indiana law forbids the use of tax money to fund athletics in the schools. The proceeds from games, and fund rais- ers in the school and com- munity generate the revenue to support all varsity sports in the school. This current system is strained to its lim- its. Indiana legislators will have to again evaluate the current system in the 1980s. This “crunch” will certainly surface in the coming dec- ade, producing a critical sit- uation in which legislators and taxpayers will be forced to restructure the system. Athletics, like so many other areas, reflect the atti- tudes and desires of society. That reflection is often both positive and negative. Today’s athletes are cer- tainly more specialized. More sports are offered (Boys Cross Country, Vol- leyball, Boys Tennis, Girls Basketball, Boys Basketball, Wrestling, Boys Track, Girls Track, Girls Tennis, Golf and Baseball) and, therefore, students are offered more variety in participation. Why has specialization been positive? Specialization has resulted in an improvement in the skill level of athletes. Coaches have also been affected by specialization. The expansion of sports has produced coaches with greater orientation and com- mitment to their respective sport. However, society’s nega- tive aspects have also influ- enced high school sports. The student’s social life has gradually moved away from the school environment. This movement has had an impact, both spiritually and financially on varsity athlet- ics. Materialism and self- centeredness have drawn the student away from school activities, and the result has been a decrease in revenue. Perhaps, the most neg- lected phase of athletics at Calumet has been intramu- rals. Intramurals involves the fielding of teams within the school to play one another. This area has dis- appeared completely at CHS. Is there no interest here? Intramurals have unfortunately been neg- lected. However, the interest is probably there, and if emphasized, the program would help to involve stu- dents in sports and in school. A more pronounced effort needs to be made in the area of intramurals. Many coaches hope to see a coming decade where school spirit and involve- ment is revitalized. The ath- lete has survived his her fel- low student’s general lack of enthusiasm for school activ- ities. However, athletics is an intangible that makes school more enjoyable. Without sports, the school environment would be less- ened. This would create a spiritual vacuum. Sports after all, add to the school community of spirit. 3 CT3 SPORT Right: Senior Cisco Guerrero paces himself during a meet at Crestview Country Club in Hobart.

The Boys Tennis Team had a disappointing season. Captain Brook Ewen, junior, was named Most Valuable Player. ‘‘Our losing season was due to a lack of experience,” explained Coach Joe Star- key.

Grid problems plague players The ' 79 season was filled with surprises. Seniors Luka Kljajic, Teddy Coopwood, Jim Wadkins and Greg Widelski were named to the Post Tribune All-Confer- ence Football Team. Although lacking a suc- cessful record, Coach Lou Lindinger commented, “This year’s squad is more tal- ented than last year. Even though the record doesn’t show it.” The Varsity team began the season with 50 members, and by October they had less than half that total. The JV squad also had a disappointing season. Soph- omore quarterback Tom Rutledge threw for over 400 yards. Leading in touch- downs for the squad was Tony Fairbanks, junior. The Freshmen were coached by Mr. Charles Cole and Mr. Bob Mizera.

Both squads were required to play a somewhat shortened schedule. Four instead of “fore” was the golf team’s slogan because of such a small turnout for the organization. The golf team’s Most Valua- ble Player was junior Steve Bizzel. Steve shot an 83 for 18 holes. He also finished in the top ten at the Lake Hills Invitational. Junior, Jeff Morris pitched a no-hitter against Benten Central, their last game of the season. Top Right: Varsity: front row: Ed Keck, John Estrada, Jeff Morris. Lynn Brinkley, Daryl Akemon.

Golf Baseball 63 Looking at faces in ’70s A decade of faces pro- duced a variety of news- making events. The 1970s were full of excitement, tur- moil, enthusiasm, disap- pointment, positive moments and times of dis- pair. On August 8, 1974 Richard M. Nixon became the first U.S. President to resign his office, and Gerald Ford suc- ceeded him becoming the first appointed President. Earlier, in 1973, Vice Presi- dent Spiro T. Agne w had resigned his position under fire. Jimmy Carter was the third President to serve dur- ing the ’70s decade. Two Olympic competi- tions provided moments of sadness and joy during the decade. In 1972 America’s Olympic swimmer, Mark Spitz, captured seven gold medals. However, tragedy struck in Munich when ter- rorists killed members of the Israeli team that they were holding hostage. Olga Kor- but, the Soviet Union’s gym- nast, stole the hearts of many when she captured three gold medals. In 1976 Bruce Jenner clinched the decathlon title in Montreal. Calumet had its own special contribution to those games in 1976. Rhonda Brady, graduate, was a member of the U.S. women’s track and field team. Dorothy Hammil, figure skater, won many fans in the 1976 winter games competi- tion. Dorothy captured a gold medal and also made a hair style extremely famous. Several celebrities, many having enormous impact on their respective fields, died during the decade. Among those who exerted tremen- dous influence, Arthur Fied- ler, 84, conductor of the Bos- ton Pops Orchestra for 50 years. Also Golda Meir, 80, former Prime Minister of Israel died on December 8, 1978. Others with great impact were Julius (Grou- cho) Marx, Charlie Chaplin, Guy Lombardo and John Wayne. Two members of the music profession, both responsible for shaping the style of music in their respective fields, died in 1977. Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley both put their per- sonal stamp on their work, and their individual contrib- utions to the field of music were completely unique. One of the most tragic events occurring in the dec- ade involved 911 members of the People’s Temple Com- mune in Guyana. On November 18, 1979 all 911 members died in a mass sui- cide-murder. Another event with a mixture of both tra- dedy and joy came in 1974, when American POWs were returned by North Vietnam. This was a joyous event, in an otherwise frustrating, controversial and divisive war. Calumet personalities of the decade included Valed- ictorians Austin Moore, Debra Burt, Donna Cheliras, Nancy Lowell, Chris Dywik, Jerry Tauber, David Ban- ning, Steven Cook, Dan Jewell, April Weeks, Donna Ferguson, Kim Ortman and Bill Gibbs. Salutatorians of the decade included Rosalyn Kallas, Elaine Dywan, Terri Lynch, Janis Zimnawoda, Theodore Wil- kins, Susan Cervantes, Michele Cook, Janis Bru- baker, Kathy Hodge and Dawn Upchurch. Perhaps, the major high- light of the decade came in 1974. On April 8 Hank Aaron hit his 715 homerun. The blast from Aaron’s bat broke the 47-year-old record held by Yankee Babe Ruth.

Right: A young Cambodian mother holds her baby as she waits in a line outside a hospital in a refugee camp in Thailand. 118 One year of a Decade Ending a year, and a decade Frustration was the key emotion Americans felt con- cerning the Iranian issue. In November, 53 Americans were taken hostage by Ira- nian students at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. As the year drew to a close, they were still held captive. Volcanic ash spread across the country when Mount Saint Helens erupted in Washington in May. This marked the first volcanic activity in the U.S. in this century. Miami was the focal point of much activity during the spring. Thousands of Cuban refugees flooded South Flo- rida. Racial unrest also broke out in Miami in May. Rioting caused the imple- mentation of curfews and the use of National Guard troops.

Plagued from the begin- ning of the school year, the completion of this book is nothing short of a miracle. Students lacked the desire to join staff, or once on, to con- tinue and see the job through. The bulk of this book was done by three stu- dents, an adviser and the school photgrapher, Mr. James Spasoff. Even the Senior Class exhibited a general apathy toward the production of this, their last yearbook. a dawn of a dzcadz Therefore, the small group of staffers who worked on this 1980 “Chieftain” are to be commended for their work, and the student body is to be blamed for this pub- lications’ size and scope. For apathy is a disease that eats away at enthusi- asm. It is the worst possible state of human conditions. QUIT is an ugly four-letter word that is becoming a common status for students. Where do we go from here? Most of us wish for better in the ’80s. The future may hold a world of prom- ise, or a continuation of indifference.
