Students showed their spirit looking their best. Wednesday was hat day, and many different hats were worn such as cowboy hats, baseball hats, beach hats, and anything else a student could find. Thurs- day was twit day. This day is set aside each year for Chargers to show the latest Central styles. Several different styles were worn: izod socks to striped leo- tards. pom-pom wigs to mom’s old hats, flashy ties to gaudy, colorful necklaces. Friday tied the spirit of Central week all to- with that Spirit gether with t-shirt day. Many stu- dents wore their t-shirts with the saying “Go for it Chargers.” Dur- ing Friday night’s game versus Central the Charger team went for it but could not overcome Central, leaving the score 0-16. The Charger football team tackles Central with their Charger spirit. Cheering during the Central assembly, the Sophomore and Varsity Cheerleaders get the spirit going by performing a cheer together.

Charging up our spirit for Homecoming week The hectic preparing and planning for Home- coming week was all worthwhile. This as in oth- ers. Student Council set up Homecoming week September 28-October 2 with days of activities for all students to join in. To start the week off full of spirit the first day of Homecoming week was Blow’em up day. That day Student Council members passed out pieces of bubble gum. On Tuesday students were urged to dress up as their favorite athlete or coach for Player Coach day. Western wear was worn on Wednesday as students participated in Round em up day. Be true to your school in blue was the message for Thursday as students dressed in Charger blue. Thursday night, cold and windy, the National Honor Society held their annual bonfire at the south end of the track. Hot chocolate was served to keep everyone warm and marshmellows were served for roasting. Friday the final day of Homecoming week was a busy day for everyone. Students dressed up for Dress up day and an assembly was held from 2:20 to 3:15 with Homecoming parade follow- ing. Competitors in the class competition dur ing the Homecoming assembly, see who is the coolest. The competitors are Jeff Williams. Bobby Yancy, Susan Tromley. Carlton Cherrigan. Opening Section 9 Spirit Event Anticipation! Excitement! Spirit! Those were the feelings felt by many Centennial students at the end of the summer for the upcoming 1981-82 school year. Summer was enjoyable, but stu- dents were ready to get into the spirit of school again. To help get the spirit going the Charger student council held their annual Spirit Event dance. The dance was held on August 28 from 8:00-11:00 in the school cafeteria. A Disc Jockey played tunes, and everyone joined in the fun. Students were dancing a vari- ety of dances from country-west- ern to punk rock. In the punk song Rock Lobster as the B-52’s sang the words Down, down, down ...” the dancers twisted down to the floor as far as they could go! The night was hot and steamy and the slow dances helped cool things down for awhile. Many students, though, took ad- vantage of the outdoor court- yard to cool off. Overall, the night went well and there were more tired feet than ever before. Enjoying a happy moment together dur ing a slow dance. Troy Daniels and Kathy Owens seem to be having a fun time at Spirit Event. A group of hot and tired dancers (Laura Punkay. Ron Shaw. Tom Woods.

Student Council representative Angie Price takes in the money. Opening Section 11 Floating into that Charger Spirit Cheers of spirit are heard each year durino the Homecoming pa rade as the floats travel along the parade route. Each class builds a float to enter in the class float competition and many oth- er organizations enter cars and floats Into the parade to join in the spirit. This year in the class float com- petition, the Sophomore class won with their float. “The Centen- nial Charge.” The Mommas and Papas (parents of Centennial stu- dents) also entered a float this year. The Charger band and lancers led off the parade with the floats following. The Cheerleaders, Homecoming court, Interserve, and girls’ tennis were among other floats in the parade. The winning Homecoming float built by the Sophomore class. In a car decorated with streamers and balloons, the Varsity Cheerleaders ride in the Homecoming parade.

Keeping to the beat the Lancers provide ei tertainment for the people along the parody route. ling Section 13 The Sophomore cheerleaders ride in front of their winning float in the parade Preparing for Our Charger Spirit Preparing for the upcoming school year can be quite a diffi- cult task. Realizing that you have another year ahead of you filled with homework, social events, and sport activities can be quite a lot to think about at summer's end. The preparing must be done, however, and in the end it all pays off. Many Fall sports begin practic- ing in the middle of August to get ready for their season. Foot- ball practice started in August with 3 days of hot and grueling double sessions. Once school had started the football players practiced both early mornings and late nights preparing hopeful- ly for a victorious season. Cross Country runners keep fit during the summer with running up to 70 miles a week. They have a few weeks of morning and afternoon practices then go to afternoon practices only. Pre- paring for them, as with many other sports, is a year long pro- cess. Other Fall sports such as volleyball, girls' tennis, girls’ swim, and golf prepare in different ways for their seasons, but they keep in common the same Charger spirit. Organizations such as Student Council, Interserve and Interact, and Band began preparing and planning activities for the upcoming school year. Many de- tails are to be remembered for events to be a success. Prepar Ing for the Charger spirit is not as easy as it may appear to be. Practicing hard for the Central game and assembly is band member Troy Daniels. 14 Opening Section gaBfc; -v:v Enthusiasm fills Lee Ryniec.

Thrill and excitement were felt by all in- volved in Homecoming. Along with many oth- er Homecoming activities the girls on the Homecoming court had the honor of being in the Homecoming assembly, parade, and half time festivities. A nervous, tense feeling was felt by all during half time of Friday night s Homecoming game as Amy Riggins was arv nounced as the 1981-82 Centennial Home- coming Queen. The next day feelings calmed down a bit. but as time grew nearer for couples to get ready for their evening out; anticipation filled the air again. At the dance everyone gath- ered around as Troy Daniels was announced Homecoming King out of the court of Chris Cunningham. Troy Daniels. Marc Elder. Mark Ellis. Chuck Hutchcraft, and Ken Meeks.

Opening Section 17 18 Student Life Student Life 19 The Charger Spirit is Catching Assemblies, football games, and dances are just some of the ways the Charger spirit is spread. Throughout the year various orga- nizations hold special events to let students participate and get involved. Many students attend home football games and cheer the team on. Having a fan bus to the away games allows the youn- ger students and students who do not wish to drive to the games a chance to attend the games. Despite high gas prices faithful Charger fans drive to many of the away games. Students also help out and show their spirit by buying mums, food from the bake sales, t-shirts, buttons, and many other items to help out various organizations put on these activities. Suspiciously showing up in yet another Catching the spirit is Jill Lewis yearbook picture. Jeff Cochrane. Joe cheering on the varsity football Lamb, and Brad Miller, show off for us. team.

Student Life 21 Building Charger Spirit Improvements to the school and surrounding area are done each year. Last spring work was started to build a new track. The dirt track Centennial once had was taken out and a new all- weather track took its place. Along with the track a new ten- nis shelter was built by the mem- bers ot Interact. Each year Inter- act conducts a service project. This year they chose the tennis shelter as their project. Both addi- tions help to provide Centennial students with better facilities.

Students are known to make up their own fashions according to their likes or follow popular trends from the coasts. The fashions around Centennial high school varied. Preppy was in and students dressed for this in penny loafers, Docksiders, Izod shirts with the collar turned up, and Cheeno pants. There were some Centennial students who had the cowboy in them. Adorned with feathers and leather, cowboy hats were worn along with cowboy boots. Some guys were caught up in the G.Q. look. They wore thin ties with a collar bar, baggy pants, pointed shoes, and button down shirts. Striking a pose in the hallway doors are three Chargers Steve Sullivan.

You saw students dressed up as punk rockers, beggars, and in un- usual looking masks. Some Cen- tennial students spent their Hal- loween night at parties or walking around the U of I cajnpus looking at all the unusual outfits the students at the U of I wore. Halloween was on a Saturday night which made it more fun be- cause students could stay out lat- er to do their “tricks.” Many strange and unknown faces were seen during school the Friday before Hat loween.

Student Life 31 Donkey Basketball An annual event at Centennial has become the Donkey Basket- ball game sponsored by the bas- ketball team. Tickets are sold by team members and the donations go to help the athletic fund. This year three teams were formed by Centennial students. They were Student Council, the football players, and cheer leaders. Central provided some ri- valry by entering their Varsity Cheerleaders as a team. The Centennial football players won over student Council, and the Central Cheerleaders won over Centennial cheerleaders. The over- all champions were the Centen- nial football players.

The weight lifting program has been in existence since March of 1978. The program started off with sev- en guys. At the present time Cen- tennial High School has about 150 students coming in from 6:30 to 9:00 lifting weights individually.

These students were definitely ready for a vaca- tion. Some lucky students, who were looking forward to escaping the chilling cold weather here in Champaign, were ready to takel off to some well known warm places, such as Florida, California and Mexico. Whether Centennial students stayed in Champaign or left for a vacation, the students did take advantage of the winter break. 38 Student Life A picturesque scene looking down upon the school's courtyard.

Participation is evident at bas- ketball and football games, along with many other sports events. Many students attend the sports event to cheer on the teams and to show their school spirit during the games. This year several senior guys got together and during halftime of the Cen- tral game showed their spirit by building a pyramid as the cheerleaders do. Each morning you will find the boys' swim team making and eating their breakfast in the school cafeteria while drying out from their early morning swim. Lunch is the time that students can unwind and converse with their friends as these students here are doing.

There are numerous activities to join and piles of homework to do. The library is a popular place for students to congregate be- fore second hour begins. Since it is a library talking is not permitted—many students found that out the hard way. During school students are found talking in groups around their lockers. The cafeteria during lunch is another place students gather if they do not use their freedom to go out to lunch. Waiting after school tor the bus Is often frustrating. Buses are always late aren't they?! A favorite past time of Centennial stu- dents is to gather In the library. Don 't talk too loud Jimmy Skelton. Jeff Buttitta.

Larry Earl holds two 3200 meter run records. Ricky Remmert, Wayne Faulkner, Eric Faulkner, and Britt Powell broke the record for the 3200 meter re- lay, and Eric Roberts achieved a 6’7 Indoor High Jump record. Sophomore runners Britt Powell broke a record for the 1600 me- ter run, and Jens Osterby for the 400 meter run. Overall, the Char- gers had a good 1980-81 sea son. The Centennial Girls’ Track Team made the best of what must have been a difficult prob- lem: no track to practice on while the track was being recon- structed. The lack of adequate facilities did not hinder the Lady Chargers as they came out ahead with a 6-4-0 season record. Several outstanding per formances broke four Charger records during the 1981 season. Leslie Hartman set new records for both the 100m and the 200 m hurdles. Freshmen runners Caprice Banks and Karen Espeseth showed their abilities by breaking records in the 100 m dash and the 800m run, respec- tively. Coach Mallory did an ex- cellent job coaching the Char- gers and even without a home track the Lady Chargers still ran a great race. 89 Lady Chargers are Victorious The Centennial Girls’ Softball team ended the 1981 season with an excellent record of 18 wins and 2 losses. They had an average of 10 runs per game, and had a winning streak of 12 wins In a row. Marla Ogden pitched the most no-hltters and the most shutouts In Centennial’s history. Judy Freeman stole a record-breaking total of 15 bases. These outstand- ing athletes’ performances, along with the help of Coach Williams earned the Lady Chargers the Twin City title, and they went on to become Capitol Con- ference and Regional finalists.

With an average of 60 miles a week, their successful season came as no surprise. The Striders finished second out of eight teams in Conference and sixth in District out of 12 teams. Their sea son record for dual meets was 6—4. The outstanding performances of the Varsity runners, including junior Britt Powell, seniors Eric Faulkner, Rick Remmert, Wayne Faulkner, Mike Chastain, and sophomores Earl Dickey, Bryan Cox, and Andy Phillips greatly helped the striders in their win- ning season. At the Peoria Invitational, Britt Powell set a school record with a time of 15:08 In the three mile run.

With the start of a strenuous weight lifting program accompa nying the team’s practice, they became much more physically prepared to play in the actual games. Although their season record was 10-15-0, this did not change the good sportsmanship and playing attitude of the Char- gers. There were many outstanding performances of the Charger Volleyball team members which earned these girls the title Play- er of the Week”: Cathy Law- rence, Andrea McCullough, Dawn Oestreicher, Sue Pritchard. Gail Slade. Babette Trautman, and Kim Williams. The Most Valuable Player was Sue Pritchard. Highest point scor- ers were Andrea McCullough with 131, Sue Pritchard with 104, and Cathy Lawrence with 100.

Remember the laughter, remember the smiles, Remember Mrs. Storch, Mr. Rose— The unexcused absence, the call to your mom, Remember the style of clothes. So hold on tight for the future, Be strong with the world and its ways, For as the song says—you’ll remember! Because these are the good ol’ days. You see. we’re finally seniors And as this year comes to an end, We surrender ourselves to the future Finding nothing else to defend. Looking back on these past four years It seems that time just flew. Many people had told us It would, And I guess we always knew. But we never really realized, All we did along the way— The friends we made, the fun we had, There’s so much more to say . . . Yet the scary thing about this, It’s so hard to understand, We may never see each other again— We’ll be scattered all over the land. Oh, there'll be lots of reunions For the class of ’82. Not everyone will be there, though, And our lives will be so new. So treasure these four years forever, Remember the dances, the games, The teachers, the classrooms, the tests and the books. And, of course, remember the names. We could go on forever, There's so much for us to recall. But each of us, within our hearts, Knows we'll somehow remember it all.

Their fund raising projects included a car wash held over the summer, and a dance follow- ing the Centennial vs. Central football game. The Class of '83 held the traditional magazine and candy cane sales, which both went over very well. Their success can be attributed to the hard work and devotion of mem- bers of the Junior Class. The Junior Class is looking for- ward to a very fun and promising Senior year at Centennial. The Junior Class Officers: President Joe Lamb. Vice President: Steve Sullivan. Sec retary: Robin Limp.

Treasurer Denise Leskis; Secretary Paula Riggins; Vice-President Melanie Hermann; President Jon Bristow. The Sophomore Class Officers were elected last spring. With the advantage of planning an early start on float building, the sophomores captured first place in the Homecoming float competition. Their sponsors, Mr. Romero and Mrs. Schrock. contributed much of their time and effort to keep everything go- ing smoothly, and there was also a lot of support from the officers and other class members. The Class of '84 hasn’t raised any money for next year's Junior Class yet, but with continued early planning for a car wash in the spring and fundraisers throughout the year, the money should be plentiful when needed. 174 Sophomores Demetriu Allen Linda Andrews Kristine Arvola Melissa Babey Michael Bailey Benjamin Caprice Banks Thomas Banks Lisa Barger Baker Michele Donna Behm Dennis Bighorn Malissa Bilbrey James Boyce Cindy Bradley Kathleen Beaumont Bradley Jon Bristow April Brown Boris Brown Laura Brunkow Christina Brush Erich Burkhardt Timothy Burns Christy Buttimer Jeff Buttitta Chris Brian Carter CamDbell WHAT TYPE OF ACTIVITIES ARE YOU CURRENTLY INVOLVED IN?

Sophomores 181 Freshmen 183 Freshman Class Build For The Future The Freshman Class participat- ed enthusiastically in the 1981 Homecoming festivities. One of the major events for the Fresh- men was the float building. They were represented by their float entitled Scorch the Spartans. With the help of many volunteers, they produced a well built float. The Freshman Class had an ex- cellent opportunity to get ac- quainted at the Freshman Dance, not only with each other, but with some of the seniors from Interact and Interserve who sponsored the dance at the beginning of the year. There was a very good turnout, and everyone had a good time. With continued enthusiasm and involvement, the freshmen look forward to building a future at Centennial.

The secretaries not only aid the administrative and teaching personnel, but the student body as well. The cafeteria staff provides hot lunches to the stu- dent body. Our cafeteria also serves as the satellite kitchen for providing hot lunches to elementary school in the district. The custodial staff serves us all. They keep our school looking nice and are always there when that locker just doesn’t open. Academics 201 Unit Four Board of Education The Board of Education had a very challenging year. Under the new consolidated elections law In Illinois, the board election was in November 1981 rather than the traditional April school board election. Six of the seven board members were elected. Dr. Da vid Williams is President; Ms. Car- ol Schumacher is Vice President; and Dr. Joseph Stucki serves as secretary. Board of Education members receive no remuneration; they spend long hours studying the challenges facing the district and making decisions in formulating district policy. Above: In this time of inflation. Mr. Jerry Hoffman. Assistant Superintendent for Sup portive Services, faces a real challenge since he is responsible for the financial planning for the district Below Mr Henry Bainerd. Assistant Superintendent for Program, has the task of providing leadership for curriculum In the district kindergarten through twelvth grade. Superintendent Dr. H. James Mahan's many duties include implementing policies which the Board of Education has set. Mrs. Schumacher. Vice-President of the Board asks Dr. Mahan a question. Board of Education Members. Absent is Dr. Joseph Stuck! 202 Academics Centennial High School Administration A school only functions as well as the leadership provided by the administration. Centennial Is fortunate In having an outstand- ing teaching staff. Mr. Davis’ door Is always open to hear sugges- tions from staff and student body alike. Mr. W. Freeman, Assistant Princi- pal, is new to Centennial this year, but not new to the district. He soon became a loyal Charg er and was helpful in scheduling activities in the school calendar along with his many duties. Mr. Rose and Mrs. Storch, two Deans of Students make sure that we all get to class. Their many duties keep them in close con- tact with the student body. They face many challenges and prob- lems each day, but they main- tain their cool. Mr A. Davis, Principal. Academics 203 Serving Illinois in Many Ways The Andersons Your Grain Marketing Partner. P.O.

Closing Section 219 In Memory of Sally Heider The Rose Still Grows Beyond the Wall Near shady wall a rose once grew, Budded and blossomed In God’s free light, Watered and fed by morning dew, Shedding Its sweetness day and night. As It grew and blossomed, fair and tall, Slowly rising to loftier height, It came to a crevice In the wall, Through which there shone a beam of light. Onward It crept with added strength, With never a thought of fear or pride, It followed the light through the crevice’s length And unfolded Itself on the other side. The light, the dew, the broadening view, Were found the same as they were before: And It lost Itself In beauties new, Breathing its fragrance more and more. Shall claim of death cause us to grieve And make our courage faint or fall? Nay, let us faith and hope receive: The rose still grows beyond the wall, Scattering fragrance far and wide, Just as it did in days of yore, Just as It did on the other side. Just as it will for evermore. —A. L.
