Gail Jones and Lisa Wingerter 2 Mrs. Donna Clendenin Mrs. Pat Pautler We, the Summit staff of 1984, would like to dedicate our annual to two very special people who have given their time and support to make this yearbook the best possible. They have spent many long hours working in order to meet the dead lines. It has not been an easy year; everything was new to them, but with them they brought leadership, productivity, and creativity. This is our way of showing our deepest appreciation for everything they have done for us. 3 Tube Tops 1. Mash 2. Knot's Landing 3. A-TEAM 4. Dynasty Soap Talk 1. Guiding Light 2.

THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR BOYS STUDYING VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE If you have an interest in farming. FFA may be for you. This is an organization for young men and women who want experiences in farm life. The students operate the popcorn stand during football and basketball games, they also sell garden seeds and rose bushes.

Members also participate in a Parent-Member banquet where their new officers are installed. Mr. Roy Heldebrandt is the sponsor of this active group of young men and women. 37 The JETS (Junior Engineering and Technical Society) Team Competition was once again held at Belleville Area College in February.

Jackets Suffer Disappointing Season This year's varsity football season ended with a 2-7 overall record and an 0-7 conference record. The team larked in size and experience. These factors plus key players suffering injuries throughout the season hampered the team very much. The aerial game was in the hands of a junior, Todd Fleming, and a sophomore. Curt Clendenin. These two had to put together a large part of the offensive drive because the ground attack was considerably weak. An outstanding receiving performance was given by junior, Jim Howie. He was named to the First team All-Conference at the tight end position. With this disappointing season the Yellowjackets gained much needed experience for next year. Hopefully it will be a better one.

Freshmen go 0-7 The freshman football team had a depressing season at 0-7. The freshman team lacked in size, numbers and naturally experience. But this season gave them the experience they will need for a good season next year. It has also shown some bright spots such as Scott Uffelman in the quarterback position and the following: leading Tackier Leading Receiver Leading Ball Carrier Don Doza Scott Uffelman Trever Vaaqucz Allen Mehrer Jim McFadden Kent Brookman Mike Phoenix Don Doza Mike Phoenix Scott Uffelman Brian Platt 69 Front Row: Roger Holley, Jeff Wittenborn.

They ended their season with a record of 0-12. At the Conference meet, they ran hard but finished 7th. Their most consistent runner was Jeff Wittenborn, who most often finished first. Due to these efforts, he was chosen MVP. Since there will only be two returning lettermen and few new members, next season's outlook is not too bright, but their spirits are high.
