Civic Memorial High School - Spectator Yearbook (Bethalto, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 200 of the 1988 volume:

SPECTATOR CLASS!!! What is class and how is it connected with Civic Memorial High School? Some will think of class as those daily gatherings of students and teachers dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge about such interesting topics as chemistry, art, or auto me- chanics. To others the word will bring to mind the group of students they hope to graduate with. But there is another meaning that is much more appropriate in reference to the time spent at Civic Memorial. Webster’s New World Dictionary de- fines class as “Excellence, as of style”. This is the goal for everyone associat- ed with CM. Each sttident, from his or her first day as a freshman to those last memo- rable days as a senior, adds his own “touch of class”. As they strive for that little something extra in academ- ics, extracurricular activities, and so- cial events; CM students carry on the fine traditions of Civic Memorial. What the readers will find in these pages is a record of the past year and that spe- cial “touch of class” that each class has added. From the class of '88 to the class of ’92, it is hoped that all will take this “touch of class” with them as they leave CMHS.

This feeling could be aroused only by one event — the Olympic games. The 1988 winter games were held in Cal- gary, Alberta, in Canada. Hopefuls from countries all over the world gathered to compare their skills with the best around. Traditionally, the United States has not been outstanding in the winter games, but Americans had great hopes for speedskaters Eric Haim and Bonnie Blair, and figure skat- er Debi Thomas. Dan Jansen, a United States speed skater, experienced defeat when he fell twice during competition. Americans were saddened when they learned that, just before his competition, Jansen’s sister died, and Jansen had dedi- cated his efforts in her memory. Spirits were high though, when, a few days later, Brian Boitans, a figure skater, became the first athlete to win a gold medal Memorial to Hill Bethalto was saddened with the loss of Sergeant John D. Hill of the Bethalto Police Department. Hill was a valuable leader and a friend to many. Hill gave nineteen years of his life to the Bethalto Police Department. During that time he served as coordinator of the Explor- er Post Police Scouts. More than thirty scouts completed this program that was founded by Hill. Dealing with school police relationship was another of Hill’s responsibilities. One was likely to see officer Hill patrolling the school parking lot, or on duty at a varsity basketball game. Officer Hill was an impor- tant member of the community, and he will be missed greatly. Olympics ’88 Let the Games Begin for the United States in 1988. The same day, Eric Haim broke the world speed skating record, but received a silver medal when his world record speed was shattered by an- other skater. The winter Olympics have a wide range of sports, including skating, skiing, luging, and hockey. The summer games include gymnas- tics, diving, and track competition. Over nine hundred athletes competed for a place on the U.S. summer Olympic team that com- peted in Seoul, South Korea. Fifteen-year- old Kristie Phillips, holder of the U.S. all- around championship, hoped to follow in the footsteps of 1984 Olympic star Mary Lou Retton. All of the U.S. athletes strove to achieve the gold. Some obtained it; others did not. Needless to say, though, is the fact that all of the Olympians had much spirit and determi- nation. “Mr. Jesus” Hits Charts The rise of a singer to stardom is usually long and tedious, but not with nine-year-old Sharon Batts. In fact, stardom was the far- thest thing from Batt’s mind when she re- corded “Dear Mr. Jesus’’ at the age of six. “Dear Mr. Jesus” is a song that appeals to Jesus to help stop child abuse. This song has drawn thousands of requests to radio sta- tions all across the country. The shocking success of “Dear Mr. Je- sus” was a big surprise to everyone, includ- ing Sharon’s mother Jan, the head of Power Source. Power Source is a Christian based youth group with many talented singers. When “Dear Mr. Jesus” was first released, it re- ceived air play from only a few Christian radio stations. Then, on November 1, a top forty station in Florida gave it a chance on the air, and since that time, things have not been the same. Power Source has recieved many requests for singles of “Dear Mr. Je- sus.” When asked about her feelings for the song, Sharon replied, “When I first sang ’Dear Mr. Jesus’ I was six and didn’t under- stand child abuse. Now 1 know it’s a really terrible thing.” The CM Eagle, A.K.A. senior Jeff Edmiaston, was a famil- iar figure at the varsity football games this year. He knew just how to “keep that Eagle spirit up.” A United States Army helicopter from Mt. Vernon. Illinois, visited CM this year during its tour of local high schools. Students were welcome during lunchtime to view the chopper” that landed during morning classes. Here senior Kevin On examines the vehicle while speaking to an army representative. Thirteen Vie for Presidency Nineteen eighty-eight has been a big year in the world of politics. This year, thirteen men are debating, campaigning, and antici- pating in hopes of becoming the next Presi- dent of the United States. The presidential candidates are waiting to see just what the future holds. The Republi- cans have six candidates running, while the Democrats have seven. There has been great controversy over the amount of personal privacy a candidate is entitled to. Democratic candidate Gary Hart was reported to have spent the week- end with model Donna Rice. Hart dropped out of the race but reentered less than two months later. Two Republican candidates are also unsa- tisfied with their backgrounds, and each is trying to change his image. Pierre du Pont, former governor of Delaware, does not want to be seen as a multi-millionaire. In an effort to shed his elitist image, he wishes to be called “Pete.” Pat Robertson, former televi- sion evangelist and head of the Christian Broadcast Network, wants Americans to think of him as a Christian leader, not as an evangelist. Illinois’s Democratic senator Paul Simon is famous for his bow ties. Jack Kemp, Demo- cractic representative from New York, has played professional football. One of the better-known candidates, Re- publican George Bush, has good name-rec- ognition simply because of his occupation — he is Vice-President of the United States. Democrat Jesse Jackson is hoping for a large portion of the monirity vote, but would like support from all Americans. Two Democratic candidates have had practical leadership experience as gover- nors. Michael Dukakis currently serves as Governor of Massachusetts, while Bruce Babbitt previously served as Governor of Arizona. Besides Paul Simon, there is one senator from each political party entered in the presidential race. Senator Albert Gore from Tennessee is a Democrat; Senator Robert Dole from Kansas is a Republican. Democrat Richard Gephardt from Missou- ri has been widely criticized as having changed his mind to suit a given situation. Amid these accusations, Gephardt maintains that he is an able leader and cites his many years of experience in Washington. These thirteen Americans will battle for their party’s nomination and vie for votes of the American people, who demand a capa- ble leader. Surrogate Motherhood: Debate Continues Some couples wait a lifetime for one mir- acle that will change their lives — a baby. Some are unable to have a child of their own, so they turn to other means. Adoption and hosting foster children are two routes couples go. The controversial option of sur- rogate motherhood, however, has recently become an option for some couples. William and Elizabeth Stern were one such couple. They opted to try a surrogate mother, a woman who is paid to have an- other couple’s baby. Mary Beth Whitehead was to be the surro- gate mother. The Sterns and Whitehead signed a contract that stated Whitehead would bear a child for the Sterns in ex- change for a designated amount of money. The problem occurred when Whitehead decided that she could not go through with the agreement. She wanted to keep the baby she had carried for nine months. The ques- tion was, just whose baby was it. The Sterns paid a considerable amount of money in advance to cover Whitehead’s ex- penses. The contract clearly stated the agreement and each party signed it in good faith. A decision would have to be made as to whether the contract was valid in these circumstances. The nature of the contract placed it in a gray area of the law. Surrogate motherhood was considered neither legal nor illegal. Only a court’s decision could decide the fate of “Baby M.” The New Jersey Supreme Court handed down a decision that outlined that the con- tract was similar to baby-selling; thus, the contract was invalid. The court decided that “Baby M” would be better off with her adoptive parents, but Mary Beth Whitehead retained visitation rights. Although this case has been resolved, the controversy over surrogate motherhood still remains. With a definitive precedent to fol- low, however, similar cases would most like- ly be resolved in the same fashion. Compiled and written by: Michele Barach CM Times It’s all in Fads, trends, designs — they change ery year. Any person strolling through the halls of CM may see anything from ruffled bobby socks to K-SHE thermals — anything goes. Junior Terri Hansel likes baggy pants and deck shoes as well as big sweatshirts and flats. Flats are coming out with buttons and tiger skins. Senior Beth Mouser, voted best dressed by her classmates, said, “I like the new looks in flats.” Freshman Jason Hart- sock said, “I like the styles of boots coming out for the guys,” pointing out that boots are in. CM girls like ankle and fringe boots, and Reebok, the perennial favorite, is still num- ber one with everyone. Many different colors of jeans have been introduced, but black seems to be the color of choice. However, CM has seen turqouise, orange, pink, and purple dyed jeans. Ripped jeans and acid-washed jeans are also popular this year. Jean jackets with fringe are seen, and similar jackets in leather are also a popular form of outerwear at CM. Cropped jackets are also big this year. Surfwear is the favored attire for warm weather. Bright, baggy cotton pants and cool tank tops are considered most stylish for the spring. Senior Mark Depping, also voted Best Dressed, said, “I really think surf- wear is cool; it makes me feel like I’m actual- ly at the beach.” The mascot for Anheiser- Busch’s latest ad campaign, Spuds MacKen- Modeling a line of sweats popular at CM is senior Michele Barach. , the style zie, has inspired much of the popularity of easy-going, party-conscious clothes. The most popular styles this year were the logo and statement clothes originally used in commercials. Coca-Cola and Pepsi also remain big hits with their lines of clothes. Shannan Norris Current fashion trends are shown here by students Natalie Wiegand, Mike Burrell, Darren Lamere, Chris Beard, Jason Hartsock, and Briena Neese. Accessories, boots, and flats are popular this year, and students enjoy wearing earrings, rings, watches, and several types of shoes. Arvi $ Seniors Jill Admire. Tricia Emde, and Lisa Wegman show different styles of necklines while working on the senior float. Fashion Many different hairstyles are popular at CM. Here, seniors Michelle Martin and Mark Depping and juniors Chad Hausman and Missy Williams show their unique hairstyles. Let Down Your Hair! Hair has grown to new lengths this year with longer locks and curls. Senior Rhonda Martin said, “I love the longer cuts.” Some still have haircuts above the ear, but a popu- lar change is moussing or gelling the hair back. Senior Sarah Miller said, ‘‘Mousses and gels allow more control and freedom with hair styles.” Many girls use colored mousses to change their hair color without the obligation of a permanent hair color- ation. Hair accessories are also in this year. Ba- nana clips with bows and beads are worn. Gathered fabric-covered loops in a variety of colors have replaced rubber bands for fas- tening ponytails. Boys are also opting for longer hair. Spiked hair is seen quite often, but most favor flat-tops. Shannan Norris Time. time, time. Watches with bright pastels were popular this year. Here students show off some favorite styles of watches. Jewelry Hot Accessories are in and they are big and bold. Jeweled bracelets in any size and color are worn by the multitudes. Senior Amy Crispi prefers scarves and oversized earrings for girls. Earrings in any shape and color, texture, and style are hot. Mismatched earrings with anything hanging from hoops have made accessorizing inter- esting and fun. Tie clips, bracelets, and gold chains are in for the guys. Jewelry for guys has hit a new high, and they are wearing more accessories than ever. Swatch watch- es, rubber bracelets, and single earrings are also a favorite of the fashion-conscious CM guy. Shannan Norris Playing footsie has taken on a new meaning with these popular styles of footwear. Students into both comfort and style were pleased with this year's shoes. Student Life Weekend Action Where are you? It is a typical Friday afternoon. Another week of higher education has come to an end, and the halls of CM are now empty. Students have had enough for one week, and they are ready for the weekend. Many students enjoy going to various par- ties, the mall, or just goofing around. Civic Memorial’s students flocked to see many box office hits this year including Fatal At- traction, Dirty Dancing and Three Men and A Baby. “I like to go to the movies and shop in St. Louis,” said senior Beth Mouser. How- ever, many students preferred to wait for the movies to come out on video cassette, as the rising popularity of movie rental stores proved. Many CM students enjoy visiting the area malls. A few of the favorites are St. Louis Centre, St. Clair Square, Alton Square, and Jamestown Mall. At these area malls, CM students head to their favorite stores which include The Gap and Chess King. What about food? No matter what the time of day, CM students love to eat. So they head to their favorite local eateries. Some popular choices for food are McDon- alds, Taco Bell, Snapps, and Pizza Hut. Some students use their time to do such things as wash their car or catch up on homework. However, most students prefer to relax on weekends. As many have found, Saturday mornings are great for catching up on sleep lost during the busy school week or the night before. Furthermore, many CM student attended teen dances this year. The dances were sponsored by various organizations such as KOPE, Student Council, and the K.C.’s. The new CM-based band “Mantas” played at many of these teen dances. No matter what one’s plans for the week- end are, CM students have fun no matter where they go or what they do.

Many CM students use the weekend to catch up on lost sleep. Biking and skateboarding are two favorite pasttimes of freshmen Brian Koolash and Chris Depping. Juniors Dee Krisloff and Lee Ann Roper enjoy looking for guys on the weekend.

Teens Enter Workforce Whether to work or not is a big decision many high school students must face today. It does not take long for most teens to real- ize that clothes, cars, and dates cost money. A job seems like the only possibilty to pay for these teenage needs. There are many advantages to holding a part-time job. “It gives me a chance to earn money instead of having to ask my mom,” remarks junior Jennifer Howard. The extra money is not the only good point to having a job. It also provides exper- ience useful in later life. Having a job teach- es one to be responsible, to show up on time, and to follow boss’s orders. Working can also train one for a career later in life. Some teens manage to save part of their paychecks. In this way, they can help out their parents with the rising cost of a college education. “After graduation, it is time to take on our own responsibilities, and if you do not plan ahead to save for college, you will have to depend on your parents,” says senior Gina Rhodes. Having a job does have its drawbacks. The steady paycheck that comes with a job is nice, but it also places much responsibility on a teenager. Many teens do not realize what a big step entering the labor force is. It often means they may have to buy work clothes, a car, gas, and pay their own insur- ance. Teens with jobs often find that work takes up all of their spare time. Long hours at work are also often the cause of low grades and tired students. For some students the pros of having a job outweigh the cons. Says junior Michelle Godar, “My job has taught me to be more responsible and to manage my time. I’ve found it is possible to work and still have time for everything else.” Laura Subick 4 Junior Lori Bradley makes change for a twenty at All new K Mart employees start at the cash register.

As Mr. Johnson would say, “You can bet the farm” that CM teachers have many famous sayings of their own. The bell rings and class begins. The student begins to wonder just what he is in for. There is no need to despair, however. Listening to lectures at CM is never boring because of one simple reason: CM teachers are well-known for their use of certain phrases. For years, the teachers at CM have been using these unique and interesting sayings while lecturing to their students. These teachers have many opportunities to use their famous phrases every day. If one would take a moment to listen to his teach- ers carefully, he could easily pick out the personalized quotes that teachers use to en- hance their lessons and give the students an opportunity to understand better. While preparing his class for a test, Mr. Jackson could be heard saying, “So your next key word is ” He can also be caught stating his famous quote, “History is a mystery ' If by some chance Mrs. Whit- field's class gets a bit out of control, she would probably ask her “dear hearts” in the classroom to kindly settle down. Mrs. Fried- line wants to make sure that her students understand her lessons; as a result, the ques- tion “Does that make sense?” has become a famous saying. Mr. George s students know that he cares when they hear, “’cause I give a hang.” Mr. Sutton's students say that he occassionally will ask of his students, “Do I have to yell at you?” Those students hope that they get the answer to this question correct. Mrs. McKinney tends to be agree- able when she holds a conversation. She can often be heard reassuring someone that they are “right about that.” These saying are just a few of those that teachers use. Undoubted- ly, many teachers quotes remain undisco- vered. So, the next time a CM teacher is teach- ing, if one pays close attention, he might hear one of these famous quotes. But, as Mr. Considine might say, be sure to remain “on task.” Michele Barach Taking lime out to help a student is an important part of a teacher's job. as Mr. Weisemann shows here with freshman Amy Lindsay. Junior Carrie Goeway is one of many dedicated CM stu- dents. She is taking both a math and science class. Students Explore Math and Science Civic Memorial students have a positive attitude towards their math and science classes. Many student find these subjects in- teresting and challenging. Junior Shelly Davis says she “loves math” and has fun solving equations. Senior Lori Oldendorph found the dissections that Biol- ogy I students are required to do “very fasci- nating.” Taking care of Spuds the gerbil and watering the lizard makes biology class excit- ing and fun for junior Tabby Smith. Some students feel that math and science classes are easier thanks to good teaching. Seniors Janene Drake and Dawn Shewmake both agree that “Mr. Sutton is a good teach- er, and he makes science easy to learn.” “Mr. Harmon is a good teacher, too,” said junior Karen Byrley. “He helps us learn, but he doesn’t push us too hard.” Steve Burk, a senior in Chemistry 11, enjoys this class “mostly because of Mr. Johnson.” Senior Brad Brakhane likes the way his Biology 1 teacher, Ms. Burnett, conducts her class. Others find that their math and science classes are enjoyable because of the other students enrolled in the class. Sophomores Rhonda Rawlings and Rachel Woods both feel that their friends help them to appreci- ate their science class. Junior Steve Mann remarked about his physics class, “It’s a challenge to find out just why a ball rolls down a hill like it does.” No matter who one asks, everyone seems to agree that science and math classes are interesting and fun for CM students. Some students have taken on the respon- sibility of having one or more science and math classes. This is a difficult task consider- ing all the the work that this involves. Senior Pat Wieneke, bravely took on two of the most difficult classes offered at CM. He took Chemistry II and calculus at the same time. Wieneke said, “I like both classes, because both are challenging and fun.” Senior Andy Sticht is also enrolled in both calculus and Chemistry II. “Math and science have al- ways been my strongest subjects,” he said. “They will prepare me for my future ca- reer.” Students also enjoy the preparation for college these courses give. A particular favorite of CM students is participating in “hands-on” lab work. Senior Michael Paslay said, “I really liked the labs that we did in the second semester of Chemistry II.” Michele Barach During her busy day Mrs. Whitfeld takes a mo- ment to ponder the numerous equations and formulas she must know to teach her math classes. Academics Senior Terri Carr pauses to ponder her litera- (Top) Mrs. GersmanandSean Madrey discuss rulesof isenio f Tnoae mdnn TcoreT hourTneTrentruF ture in her English class. grammar.

Students Appreciate Honors English thoroughly.” Pat Wieneke, a four-year hon- ors English student, feels that honors English is more challenging than regular English classes. ‘‘They are more like college English classes,” he said. ‘‘Even though there are many compositions, one learns a lot of new words and develops better writing tech- nique.” Dave Lindow, another English four col- lege-bound student, feels that taking this course will be beneficial for college. “It helped me learn better study habits. I also realized that you can’t bluff you way through papers.” Senior Kevin Asaro is also in his first year of honors English courses. He said, “College bound English has broadened my knowlege and horizons.” In fact, he summed up the general feeling of all in the honors English curriculum by saying, “Everyone in the class has a serious attitude about learning and improving.” Michelle Martin The series of honors English courses at Civic Memorial is a program designed to prepare college bound students for their studies in college. The honors English courses differ from regular English courses in several ways. Honors students are as- signed a Basic Word List book, a vocabulary book comprised of words deemed necessary for college-bound students to know. During the junior and senior years, honors students also do work in a Vocabulary 101 book. This study focuses on becoming more familiar with the language and its origins in order to communicate more effectively. In addition to the rigorous vocabulary work, honors stu- dents are required to complete much com- position work. To round out the curriculum, honors students read many novels. Senior Briena Neese is in her first year of honors English study. She said, “You are required to write more papers. But I understand grammar better because it is explained more Academics Activities play a major role at CM. They give students a chance to do some- thing fun in or at school. Some popular ac- tivities are coronation and prom, two formal dances. Others range from modern dance to the ever-popular Thankgiving assembly. 'Activities are a big part of student life at CM. Without them, this would be just an- other school.” said juniorSfeve Mann. Mike Burrell Waiting for the ceremonies to begin. Nicki Heflin. Wendi Nasso.

ACTIVITIES Homecoming Highlights Bonfire, Homecoming Game During homecoming week the bonfire and homecoming game are two events that ev- eryone seems to enjoy. The bonfire is an event that is an old tradition at CM. Sponsored and organized by the student council, the annual event was attended by over 450 students this year. After the band performed several numbers, the varsity football cheerleaders added something new to their traditional spirit yells and sideline cheers. This year they per- formed a dance to the rap “Tricky” by Run D.M.C. The unique and satirical perfor- mance proved to be a real crowd pleaser. Next, the drill team performed the school song and the fight song. The panty hose race was won by the football players. The annual tug-of-war left the juniors victorious over the seniors. “It was exciting because the juniors beat the seniors for the first time,” said ju- nior Aimee Ventress. The evening conclud- ed with a blazing bonfire, and all the students gathered around and socialized. Said fresh- man Holly Whipple, “Since this was my first year in high school I didn’t know what to expect. It turned out to be really fun!” Even though the student body showed great sup- port for their team at the bonfire, in the homecoming game the next evening, the Ea- gles were defeated by the Marquette Explor- ers 17-0. “Despite our loss, it was the best defensively played game the whole season, said senior Andy Sticht. Senior Kevin Asaro added, “While we regretted our loss, it failed to dampen the spirit of homecoming weekend that everyone showed at the bon- fire.” In any case, this year’s bonfire and homecoming game proved to be a memora- ble event for all. Terri Carr At the second annual panty hose race, senior Terri Carr struggles to keep up as her team is defeated by the football players.

The tug-o-war was the highlight of my evening.” — Dawn Shewmake I Watching the homecoming game with excitement, ju- nior Brett Hausman and senior Don Harvill cheer on the Eagles. Students gather around the annual bonfire in an at- tempt to keep warm. Bonfire Homecoming Game During the homecoming parade, the Drill Team per- forms while the band plays “Happy Together by the Turtles. Homecoming Parade Parade Provides Fun, Entertainment Those who attended this year’s homecom- ing festivities know that the parade was a highlight of the week. As in many years before, this year’s homecoming parade was a tremendous success. Not only were there many participants in the actual parade, there were also a number of spectators. Passing out candy and enjoying all the activ- ity, the participants in the parade proved to be a major highlight of this year’s homecom- ing festivities. Along with the many hours of preparation there comes the fun and the self-satisfaction of producing a float. Sophomore Christy Hannel states, “It was a real challenge to get our float to look better than last year’s, but with a lot of work and determination, we managed to produce a first place float.” Other than the parade, another highlight of this year was the homecoming football game. This year’s football Eagles played a hard game but lost to the Marquette Explor- ers by a score of 17-0. Senior Kevin Asaro states, ’’The loss was a tough one because everyone was looking foward to a homecom- ing game win. The crowd turn-out for the game was as outstanding as ever.” The overall attitude of this year’s parade and homecoming football game was that of excitement and good school spirit. The stu- dents and faculty alike all did their best to make this year’s homecoming festivities be the best they could be. Steve Burk While building their entry for the parade, freshmen Theresa Haney and Doug Kutter get their first hands-on experience in high school float-making. The sophomores won first prize with ‘‘Eagle Beater — Whip the Explorers.” Here, Angela Harrop, Lisa Le- Masters, and Jennifer Crispi show how proud they are of their class. Homecoming Parade Cooper Crowned Homecoming Queen While the queen candidates were introduced, one could feel the suspense gradually build as the announcement of the home- coming queen was awaited. Ten- sion grew as the mistress and master of ceremonies, Rhonda Martin and Brad Labertew, opened the envelope. Finally Mary Beth Cooper was an- nounced as the 1987 homecom- ing queen. Dancing couples and nervous court members eagerly awaited the crowning ceremony. Junior class president Steve Mann said, “I liked this year’s coronation because of its fun atmosphere. I could tell everyone was having fun.” Finally, at 10:00 P.M., the ceremony began. The home- coming court and queen candi- dates were introduced while Tracey Neunaber and Deanna Hodapp played piano for musi- cal accompaniment. After all of the court had been introduced, the swing choir sang the theme song of the evening, “Still of the Night” under the direction of choir director Mrs. Rogers. The queen candidates then joined hands and waited excitedly. Master of ceremonies Brad La- bertew then announced Mary Beth Cooper as the 1987 Home- coming Queen. Tears of happi- ness were shed as Mary Beth Cooper climbed the stairway to be crowned by the retiring queen, Melinda Tieman. Senior Jenny Klueter said, “It was a lot of fun to watch the ceremony and see my friend voted queen.” This year’s coronation pro- duced much fun and memories for all. Senior queen candidate cJanene Drake summed it up by saying, “I’ll remember this night for the rest of my life!” Michelle K.

Most people fail to realize the hard work that went into the decorations for the coro- nation. Junior Ginger Hartsock said, “We stayed up many nights decorating, but the results were worth it.” The work put into the decorations was hard and time consuming, but the outcome was proof that it was time and effort well spent. The commons were decorated with silver stars and streamers. Blue, white, and silver balloons floated at the ceiling. Everyone who entered the commons seemed to be delight- ed by the decorations. Senior Sherry I in- yard said, “The decorations really helped make the coronation a success.” The 1987 coronation was a night most look back on with pleasant memories. Of course, all who attended recall the dancing, socializing with friends, and watching the crowning. Perhaps, too, many recall the decorations that added so much to the dance. Beth Mouser A moment alone gives Chandra Smith and her date time to discuss the night ahead. Special plans, formal attire, and romance make Coronation an enchanted evening. All dressed up in their Saturday best, sophomores Jen- nifer Ringering, Julie Walsh, and Jody Ervin enjoy the coronation. Taking time out from the coronation festivities, seniors Julie Williams and Starla Kutter show their unending friendship After the coronation ceremonies seniors Brad Brakhane, Jason Cleveland, and Stacey Batchelor and others gather to chat. Swaying to the jazzy sounds of the Bob Bermes Band, seniors Tracy Slimick and Jeff Driver enjoy themselves on the dance floor. As Patsy Coffman fills the punch fountain, seniors Pat Wieneke and Mike Paslay check out the refreshments. While primping her date, Eric Arth, junior Susan Wins- low tries to predict who the new homecoming queen will be. Coronation Traditional Holiday Assemblies It’s a Wonderful Jingling bells and the smell of pumpkin pies baking fill the air of Bethalto. However, before C.M. students rush home for the holi- days with visions of sleeping in and sugar plums dancing in their heads, they first enjoy the tradition of holiday assemblies. The highlight of the Thanksgiving assem- bly for the third year in a row was the “Put- tin’ on the Hits” program, emceed this year by senior Jeff Edmiaston. This year there were six talented group entries in the pro- gram. The varsity cheerleaders performed to the funky song “Tricky.” Earleen Stutz, Jennifer Crispi, Denise Fisher, and Lisa Le- Masters danced to “Leader of the Pack,” and lip-syncing to the popular Fat Boys’s tune “Wipeout” was the Modern Dance Club. The Purple Pazzazz performed to the song “Shopping.” This year’s winners of the contest by loudest applause were Gina Rhodes and Jenna White with their crowd- arousing routine to the rap song “Tramp.” However, Raymond’s Rockers lip-syncing to Cinderella’s song “Nobody’s Fool” followed a close second with a lot of the senior sup- port. Another popular highlight of the as- sembly was the election of Mr. Vollmar as the Turkey Man. A new tradition was started at this year’s Time of the Year Christmas assembly. The “First Annual Competition of the Stars” provided enter- taining competition between teachers and students. Students such as Chris Meyers, Brian Donahue, Janene Drake, and Kun Ho No competed against teachers like Mr. Har- mon and Ms. Ims in golf, basketball shoot- outs, ping pong matches, and a balloon race pitting the class officers against teachers. Mike Paslay and emcee Andy Sticht pulled names from a box containing the names of all students. Some of the lucky winners, each of whom received a ten dollar gift certi- ficate from Musicland, were Sue Bateman, Dawn Buckner, Kim Tite, Wyatt Roberds, and Derik Holtman. Kevin Dunlap, Wyatt Roberds, Cathy Nemick, Carl Beck, and Lorraine Burns each won a case of soda donated by Mr. Cary. With all of these new activities at the Christmas assembly, one fa- miliar tradition stayed the same-the election of Miss Snowflake, who was Mrs. Stevenson. Said junior Jeff Bourland, “The addition of the Olympic games to the Cristmas assembly was a great idea, and I hope to see them again next year.” Indeed, everyone seemed to enjoy the blend of old and new at both assemblies.

New Leadership Helped: Our Town at CM Proves Successful The 1987-88 school year provided a per- fect setting for the Drama club to rebuild itself after a year of inactivity with the addi- tion of a new sponsor, Mrs. Carol Phillips. Phillips said she that she was asked to spon- sor the productions for a group of students who were looking for a theatre program to take part in. Said Phillips. “I’d like a broader foundation for the program.” To serve this end, she initiated a drive for a drama course to be available starting in the ?88-’89 school year. The Drama club put on the classic Our Town, written by Thornton Wilder, as their fall play. The story is about a small New Hampshire town in which the focus is on two families, the Gibbs and the Webbs. The play follows the everyday lives of these families to show that often one does not appreciate the gift of life while living. Belinda Reno The cast of Our Town, the fall play, was: front: John Freeman, Casey Scroggins, Melissa Ritter, Aliska Hammon, Stacie Smith, Ronna Schneider, Nicole Morin, Belinda Reno, and Chad Hausman row 2: Robin Ritter, Laura Subick, and Dave Berkenbile back row: Jeff Bourland, Billy Walker, Keith Brann, John Day, Jolene Farris, Eddie Ingram, Jason Travis, Steve Mann, and Darla Simmons.

Fall Play Agents, a Farmer, And 2 Job Seekers Ghosts Give All A Night of Fun The spring play, Our Guests are Ghosts, was presented on March 18 and 19. The play was about a bunch of ghosts who live togeth- er in a retirement home. They had a run-in with a farmer and two nosy government agents who want to take over the land be- cause no property taxes have been paid on the land in many years. The ghosts come up with a plan that involves two unsuspecting job-seekers to fool the agents so that the ghosts can keep the land. The plan comes off with a few hitches, but in the end, the ghosts no longer have to haunt; they are able to join their brethren in the greater beyond. The cast of the play worked very well together and the production came through with flying colors. Belinda Reno Melissa Fisher.

Spring Play Labertew, Martin Crowned “The Time of My Life” The sky was bright with ribbons of colors from the setting sun. The hairspray had been sprayed, the makeup had been applied, the stubble had been shaved, and the ultimate prom was awaiting the arrival of the best- dressed couple. Soft blue lights glittered and silver ballons floated gently along the ceiling. Girls flitted here and there. Cries of “Oh! I just love your dress” echoed throughout the night. It all seemed so dream-like almost as if it were a fairytale. Them, at 10:00 P.M., Steve Mann, junior class president, announced the names of the king and queen. Amidst a throng of ap- plause, they were escorted to their thrones. Brad Labertew and Michelle Martin, the 1988 prom king and queen, then shared a danced to the theme song of prom ’88, “I Had The Time of My Life.” And what a time it was! Aimee Dossett The 1988 prom king and queen were Brad Labertew and Michelle Martin. Everyone enjoyed having their picture taken in the gazebo of streamers in the center of the dance floor, as seniors Terri Carr and Cary Corbin demonstrate. When momentary boredom ensued at prom, the senior guys knew just what to do to pass the time. Jeff Jones and his friends built this impressive pyramid of styrofoam cups.

Juniors Work Hard, All Enjoy Dance Seniors Experience Mixed Emotions at Prom The 1988 prom, “The Time of My Life,” was a huge success. This year’s junior class started off their planning early, and their magazine sales were above aver- age. With good financial backing and many class members willing to work, the juniors provided the seniors with a great prom. The juniors were even able to forgo the tradition of staying up late the night before decorating because of their dedication. They decorated the commons in silver and blue, with many bal- loons for souvenirs. The Bob Bermes Band provided the tradi- tional big band sounds for danc- ing and entertainment. Although the prom is a joyous occasion meant for celebration, it also marks the end of an era for the seniors. When asked how they felt about attending their final formal dance of their high school career, many shared feel- ings of happiness mixed with sorrow that the year was almost over. Said Sarah Miller, “I really enjoyed spending prom night with three of my best friends. Of all four proms, my senior prom was the best.” Kyle Dunlap pointed out, “I’ll always remem- ber my last prom as being very exciting and fun, but also a little bit sad.” Scott Borror said, “Our last prom was great — the atmo- sphere was really full of excite- ment. Later in the evening, though, I began to realize how our four years at high school have flown by.” Despite all the feelings of sad- ness, everyone, including the seniors, seemed to have a won- derful time. Said Mike Paslay, “My senior prom was great. It’s a time I’ll never forget!” Mi- chelle Martin After-Prom Preparations Pay Off “Mardi Gras” Fun for All After-Prom is one of the high- lights of prom weekend for CM students. After wearing tuxes and hoop dresses for three hours, students are ready to put on some comfortable clothes and head for the after prom for all-night fun and games. This year’s after-prom theme was “Mardi Gras.” The parents of the juniors decorated for a week working hard to make everyth- ing perfect. The dance floor was surrounded by a white picket fence, and the exits from the floor were all marked with street signs bearing the names of streets in New Orleans. A large steamboat painted on the wall was topped off with a lighted wheel that gave the illusion that it was actually paddling water. Students also enjoyed the strobe lights and black lights that gave interesting visual effects. The parents had a gambling room for the students, where fake money with the faces of CM teachers on it was used as legal tender. For the dancers, “Alazone” pro- vided tunes that everyone en- joyed. Senior Jeff Jones said, “Since it was my senior year, I had a lot of fun. Everything was really great.” As the night end- ed, students were able to take home souvenirs of the evening, such as table arrangements and street signs. Everyone also re- ceived a souvenir mug that had “Mardi Gras ’88” and the com- edy and tragedy masks printed on it. For the gamblers, an auc- tion was held. Students who mul- tiplied their money in the gam- bling room bid for prizes donat- ed by local merchants. Summed up junior Aimee Dossett, “It was the best after-prom 1 have ever been to.” Terri Carr Waiting for a friend, Missy Mesagno Taking a break from the blackjack table.

The cloudless sky made for a hot day, but the casually dressed students didn’t mind. Said senior Darren Lamere, “Give me a pair of shorts and some sunglasses and I’ll be fine.” For others, wet rides gave the park-goers respite from the heat. Thunder River and the Log Flume both seemed to fill the bill for hot CM students who wanted to cool down. “We rode Thun- der River at least ten times,” said freshman Jason Hartsock. This year, there was a new at- traction at Six Flags, The Con- dor, which everyone seemed to enjoy. However, the classic rides — The Screamin’ Eagle, The Jet Scream, and Thunder River — seemed to be the favorites. At the end of the day as every- one exchanged goodbye’s, rode one last ride, or nursed their sun- burn, each person seemed to look forward to a luxury not af- forded all weekend — sleep. Terri Carr After Prom Six Flags Fun in Sun Beach Party One Highlight of Week Students Enthusiastic at Twirp Week Twirp week, the traditional week at CM of dressing in a style determined by the student council, was a big success this year with good student body participation. Monday was pajama day, allowing student to show off their sleeping attire. Tuesday, traitor day, afforded everyone the chance to dress in colors from other area schools. A “geek” is understood a a nerd or someone who is not “with it.” On Wednesday, geek day, students dressed up in ther most “nerdish” clothes. Thursday, student showed their school spirit by dressing in purple and gold. Friday was “Fun in the Sun Day.” Student wore their favorite jams, Hawaiian shirts, and sunglasses. This year an added attraction came to CM. The student council held “Beach Party ’88” in the parking lot behind the school. The event included a dance, volleyball, wa- ter ballons, food, a DJ, and pictures in front of a beach mural backdrop. Twirp week this year was an exciting one. The students were enthusiastic about being albe to dress in the wacky chosen styles. Becky Edwards While cuddling her teddy bear, senior Michelle Martin models the latest in pajama fashion.

Yearbook Staff Chorus Hard Work Pays Off Tradition of Excellence Continues Improvement, New Plans Rogers Takes On Chorus Direction This year’s Spectator is being co-edited by Andy Sticht and Brad Labertew. Headed by journalism teacher and yearbook advisor Mrs. Beck, the editors, along with three journalism classes, make up the yearbook staff. Journal- ism classes were filled with enrollment reach- ing an all-time high of 59 students. Each stu- dent was assigned a page or pages to com- plete. This year, each double-page spread will have a by-line following the copy, naming the student who completed the page. This year’s book features 16 pages of full color pictures and 8 pages of spot color (red). Co-editor Brad Labertew says, “We are expecting great things from this year’s Spec- tator. We have lots of ideas and a creative, hard working staff, so we foresee a successful publication. We hope you enjoy your copy.’ Shannan Norris The chorus is once again under new lead- ership. Lynn Rogers is the new director who reports, “The chorus has been improving since the beginning of the year. The pro- gress has been slow, but we are making strides towards improved musicianship, con- cept of ourselves relating to being a success- ful music group, and taking pride in our- selves as a successful music group.” The chorus has been practicing a variety of music ranging from classical selections to contemporary music. The chorus is also going to be attending clinics with groups from the S1U chorus, a local group from Wood River High School, the Lincoln High School chorus from East St. Louis, and the Edwardsville chorus. Special trips are being planned. A concert will be attended at Powell Symphony Hall which will feature vocal soloists with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. A day tour is also being planned with the chorus in St. Louis including two singing engagements. Shannan Norris Mrs. Rogers. Tracy Neunaber, Sarah Miller.

New Director, Unique Tour Spark Band Regeneration The new band director, Mark Mikulay, directs the band through ‘‘Happy Together in rehearsal for one of their public performances. Band experienced several changes this year. The biggest change was the appoint- ment of a new director, Mark Mikulay. This was Mikulay’s first year teaching band. Many new teachers find their first year awkward, but Mikulay said, “I’ve felt really welcome since my first day here.” Student leaders were used this year in assisting band direction. They were used mainly with the marching band. A parent support group, the Band Boosters, was formed. This arrangement proved to be very successful. The parents helped with fun- draisers, such as the selling of pizzas and popcorn. They also collected money to be used on band tour. The band went out of state for tour this year. They left on a Friday in April for Ten- nessee. Amy Harrop, a junior in band said, “Band tour was really exciting this year. This was the first time in years that the band has gone out of state. Tennessee was great.” The band, color guard, and drill team per- formed at a high school on the trip there. The rest of the tour included playing at Opryland Parthenon Centennial Park, and sight-seeing along Music Row. Sarah Miller CM football fans always appreciate the marching band’s half-time show.

Band Tour, New Routines, Dedicated Captains Colorguard Flair Adds to Band Shows Something better than ever added a spark to the band this year, and that could only be the colorguard. Performing during half-time at football and basketball games, the color- guard tried new and innovative routines to snazz up the evenings. “The use of stream- ers and new flags added a colorful backdrop to the band’s performance,” said the new band director Mr. Mikulay. The colorguard also did a spectacular job on the band tour, which went to Nashville, Tennessee. They strutted their stuff in Opreyland and Fountain Square, a shopping mall, with routines to “Gimme Some Lo- vin’” and “Got My Mind Set on You.” The colorguard also performed at Mt. Vernon Junior High before their 7 hour trip. The guard also did consistently well throughout the year. Amy Crispi and Jenny Klueter, the squad’s captains, were responsible for lead- ing the squad and creating routines. Many schools are able to hire a special instructor to teach colorguard; the captains assumed part of the responsibilities of such a position. Summed up senior colorguard captain Amy Crispi, “Colorguard had a lot of return mem- bers and the squad picked things up really quick. Overall, it was a great year!” Angel Meyer Drill Team During half-time of the senior-night basketball game against Roxana, Jesse Stallings joins Jodie Ervin and Tenna Guthrie to perform “Dude (Looks Like a Lady).” While she cheers with the cheerleaders, Charlene Doerr expresses her enthusiasm for the Eagles.

The “Purple Pazzazz” were giv- en an excellent rating in their first drill team competition at Althoff, and the squad plans to participate in more competitions in the future. “The members put a lot of creativity and initiative into the routines they made up for football and basketball games, stated Mr. Mikulay, their sponsor. The squad also showed their abilities and enthusiasm on the three-day band tour at Nashville, Tennessee. Said senior captain Tenna Guthrie, “It's been fun; it’s been great. We've acted crazy, and we were always late. Nonetheless, I’m glad we’ve all stayed together to make the drill team the great success it was.” Angel Meyer Modern Dance ’87 The Rhythm Got CM The rhythm “got” the entire audience, as the Modern Dance club entertained full houses on both Friday and Saturday nights. This year’s concert, held on the 5th and 6th of November, marked the club’s thirteenth year of performances. The founder and sponsor, Mrs. Seely, explained how the Modern Dance club got started. The Modern Dance club started in 1974 before the new high school was built. Mrs. Seely was teaching dance classes in Physical Education, and a group of the students were asked to perform at Civic Memorial’s open house. After that, a club formed that per- formed each year at open houses and was included on band tour. Then, in 1980, when the new high school was opened, the Mod- ern Dance club began to put on concerts. The club has put on a fall concert annually since then. This year’s production had a wide variety of dances including “Weird Sci- ence”, “Labor of Love”, and “Diary of a Madman.” Though nobody can really determine the success of a show better than the audience, every cast member has his own opinion of modern dance. As dance club member Be- linda Reno said, “Modern Dance was frus- trating and exhausting, but fun.” Mary Beth Cooper (Right) In the crowd pleaser “Wierd Science .Dr. Angel Meyer and assistant Tammy Pace are surprised to learn their creation”.

Student Council and NHS Strive for Excellence Leaders, Scholars Meet Goals National Honor Society The student council is a group of students, each of whom show leadership in their re- spective classes. Each year, the council sponsors the Turkeyman and Miss Snow- flake awards. In addition, they plan the ac- tivities for the bonfire and the homecoming parade. This year, the student council sold jewelry in an effort to raise funds to help the class of ’88 purchase letters as a gift to the school. These letters, spelling “Civic Memo- rial High School provided an attractive ad- dition to the building. In addition, Mr. Wal- lace agreed to try a new plan to allow stu- dent council meetings to be held during school hours. Said this year’s president Andy Sticht, “We tried the class-time meet- ings in order to get better participation. The student council met both of its major goals this year — it became more organized and enough money was raised to help the class of ’88 purchase the letters. The National Honor Society is an organi- zation that honors the outstanding academic achievements of students. In the fall, the NHS sells homecoming mums to raise mon- ey to make purchases for the school. To be inducted into the society, students must have a 3.0 GPA as juniors or a 3.25 GPA as seniors, and each must have taken certain courses. In the fall of 1986, the NHS pur- chased white table clothes for use at special school functions. This spring, the NHS pur- chased additional table clothes and napkins for the school. “These purchases, said sponsor Mrs. Whitfield, “were made possi- ble by the sales of homecoming mums.” Both of these organizations promote ac- tive participation in the school and academic excellence. This year, both organizations achieved their goals. Darren Lamere Student Council National Honor Society During a before-school student council meeting, president Andy Sticht calls for order.

The club sold soda at home sporting events to raise money for discount tickets to Six Flags. President Mike Paslay said. “We’ve all worked hard, we achieved our goal, and we had a good time in the pro- cess.” The French Club has existed at CM for many years, but this year’s members decid- ed to make the club an active group. While past attempts had failed, members of the club this year found enough sponsors to hold a successful Rock-a-Thon. Club members rocked for 24 hours to raise enough money for their goal. The members plan to visit the French Quarter and Bourbon Street of New Orleans, Louisiana, both as a reward for their efforts and as a learning experience to expand their knowledge of the French cul- ture.

Hands-on Experience in Work-Study Programs A Balance of Education and Experience Brings Success Going to work right from school has be- come a part of life for some CM students. Office Occupations, Home-Economic-Relat- ed Occupations, and Distributive Education are organizations for seniors who desire to work outside of the school and receive one credit for the classwork itself. The students who participate in these programs get work experience and find out if they are suited for their chosen profession. Office Occupations is a work-study pro- gram for students interested in secretarial careers. Supervised by business teacher Dar- lene Smith, the students work in offices which allows these future secretaries to learn skills that are necessary in this field. Mary Lewey said, “My O.O. job has helped me use the skills that I have learned through my business classes.” She added, “It has also given me an opportunity to work with them to my advantage.” Home-Economic-Related Occupations is a club made up of students who are interested in home-related careers. H.E.R.O. gives stu- dents a chance to combine both school and work. Amy Paschedag, H.E.R.O. coordina- tor, helps students find jobs that allow them to pursue their career goals. Businesses that hire H.E.R.O. members range from McDon- ald’s to the Bridal Suite at Alton Square. This year the club made a special trip to Amelia’s restaurant as a reward for their hard work. Tracey Slimick, a crew leader at a nearby Dairy Queen, is happy with her work-study arrangement. However, she also recognizes the added pressures of working life. She said, “My H.E.R.O. job has taught me great responsibility in the working world.” Distributive Education is a work-study or- ganization headed by director Carl Behrens for students who plan to get into retail sales and marketing. Pat Wrischnik, who works at Prarie TV in Bethalto, said, “It gets me away from everyday school life and gives me prac- tical job experience.” Civic Memorial D.E. members competed at the area SIUE Distri- butive Education competition. Five CM stu- dents were winners in this competition, and they went onto Springfield for a three-day trip. Distributive Education members also at- tended the state leadership conference, a contest that promotes the development of future leaders for marketing and manage- ment. This year there were two state win- ners from CM. Mike Helmkamp placed third in the Economics contest, and Chris Lindley received an award of excellence in advertis- ing. Ross Greer summed up his participation in both the competition and the program saying, “It was a learning experience I’ll nev- er forget, and that I’ll always be able to use.” Christine Long LJI____II_Jl—II_II—I w r r IP' 1 t r � r 1 } CM winners in D.E. competition, Delos Turner.

Education, Homemaking, Health Careers Explored Career Clubs Active in School Students who plan for the future find many opportunities to prepare themselves at CM. In three clubs at the school, students can learn about various occupations. While doing so, the members can share in club comraderie and enjoy themselves by partici- pating in club activities. The Student Action for Education is a group of students interested in the field of education. Students in the SAE visited Zion Lutheran school this year to observe teach- ers and their techniques. SAE members were allowed time with a class to teach les- sons and help with an assignment. Said Mi- chelle Martin of her experience, “It was real- ly neat to go back to my old school, except this time I got to be the teacher!” The Future Homemakers of America is an active group in the school. After selling can- dy at the school to raise money, FHA mem- bers went to a cluster meeting in St. Louis involving FHA clubs from five area states, where they spent the night. The Health Careers Club, a group for those with interests in the field of health, continued serving the school and community this year with its annual blood drive. Held on February 24. the club members, in coopera- tion with the local Red Cross, collected a CM record amount of blood. Said senior Jean Forrester, “Giving blood was quite an exper- ience. I’m glad I could help out and do my part for the community.” The HCC also sponscVed its annual cheese and sausage sale to raise money for the Health Careers scholarship.

K.O.P.E. sponsored several dances this year for students to attend after the home basketball games. Here, senior K.O.P.E. member Pat Wieneke converses with Matt Leh- nen while the band takes a short break. Art club, K.O.P.E. Big Contributions Made by Clubs The art club has been in existence for more than 20 years. Throughout that time, the club has been responsible for many pro- jects involving the school. The backdrops for modern dance, school plays, and coronation were all made possible by the efforts of the members of the CM art club. Kids Organizing Positive Envorinments, or K.O.P.E., is a peer leadership group made up of CM students. The group’s main objec- tive is to educate people about drug and alcohol abuse and help to prevent it. Al- though this is only the second year of its existence, K.O.P.E. has successfully pro- vided many substance-free activities for CM students to attend. For example, the group sponsored a dance after the home basketball game against Jerseyville, which turned out to be a huge success. “I feel that we have accomplished a lot during these first two years, and we have made a good start for providing a substance-free environment in the future,” said K.O.P.E. president Mi- chelle Martin. All in all, both clubs contribute much to the extracurricular life around the school. Michele Barach K.O.P.E. Front row: Aimee Dossett, Mary Beth Coo- per. Kevin Asaro.

People who favor accu- racy and teamwork will enjoy basketball and soccer. For one on one action, or pushing skills to the limit, there are tennis, track and wrestling. CM athletes come in many differ- ent forms, and each and every one can be proud to be called an Eagle. Jason Travis Football (Steve Locklear), Tennis (Jennifer Howard).

Freshman Football Participation Is Key to Improvement The freshman football team did consider- ably well this year. A total of 34 freshmen went out for the team and stuck with it. “If we can deliver 25 boys to the varsity level, winning will be much easier,” said coach Gary Me Mi lien. Coach McMillen said that freshman football is a learning experience and this year was no exception. Tackle and guard Brett Bievenue commented, “I liked playing for the team this year, and we’ll be better if we get stronger.” Even though the boys like winning, Coach McMillen said, “Winning is always secondary to participa- tion.” Shelly Davis Freshman Football Eagles Stay Optimistic Rough Season Tries Football Team When the end of August ar- rived it was time once again for the CM football squad to get out the shoulder pads and prepare for another season. For the sec- ond year in a row some mem- bers of the team entered the sea- son with their famous “bald ea- gle” haircuts. “I buzzed my hair short because everyone else on the team did,” said junior Todd Meiser. “It was a trademark that helped to bind the team togeth- er.” The team had to run and sweat through daytime summer practices three weeks before their first game. Said senior Ke- vin Asaro, “When we started summer practices everyone was really keyed up hoping to have a very good year. We knew we had to work hard the first three weeks because our first game was against a very tough oppo- nent.” The Eagles played very well in their first two home games. They lost to Triad in a very close game (15-14), but in the next game against Wood River, CM’s offense came to life. Steve Locklear’s three touch- downs led the Eagles to a 48-14 victory. Unfortunately, it would be their last win of the season. One disappointing loss was the homecoming game against Marquette. “It was one of the better games we played all year, especially defensively,” said sen- ior Andy Sticht. There were still many bright spots in the season. Pat Wieneke made the MVC all-conference team and Steve Locklear was one of the area’s leaders in rush- ing yardage. The Knights of Co- lumbus Quarterback club named both Pat Wieneke and Carl McGaughey offensive linemen of the week, and Joey Ricci was named defensive lineman of the week. For CM students, football games are still one of the social highlights of the year. Junior drill team member Angel Meyer said, “It’s a lot of fun for me because I get to perform at home games with the drill team and be with my friends.” The players were not al- togther disappointed. Said ju- nior Matt Lehnen, “This was a character building year, but we still had fun because we enjoy the game of football.” Eddie In- gram The varsity football team is, front: Andy Sticht, Jeff Whaley, Cary Corbin, Carl McGaughey, Lester Harvill, Dale Laird and Steve Locklear, row 2: Jason Cleveland, Kevin Asaro, Tim Crider, Skip Morris, Pat Wieneke, Brad Brakhane, Paul Scroggins, Mike Paslay, and Joey Ricci-, row 3: Marc Farrell, Jeff Stephens, Larry Davis, Jim Williams, Shawn Cockerell, Pat Buller, Travis Lindley, Jason LeMarr, Aaron Dugan, Jesse Stallings, and Todd Meiser, back row: Shane Cooper, Tony Vogel.

In Competition, On the Field Cheerleaders Excel From dancing in football uni- forms to rap music, to leading the spirit yell, the CM varsity football cheering squad has suc- ceeded in entertaining and rally- ing football fans this year. “It was a lot of hard work, but is was also a lot of fun,” said soph- omore Kathy Holtmann. This year the cheerleaders attended a camp in Greenville, Illinois; and they practiced many days during the summer to prepare for competition in Michigan. There they received 20th place out of 200 cheering squads at the competition. The cheerleaders have enter- tained crowds with new cheers such as “Jungle” and ’’Egyp- tian.” Senior Amy Yates reflects the squad’s attitude toward per- formances when she explains, “We have lots of fun cheering for the home crowd. We’re not nervous because there’s nothing we like better than cheering on the Eagles!” Eddie Ingram Football Eagerly awaiting the return, Michelle Skinner and Janene Drake stand poised for action.

Youth Shows Promise Volleyball Eagles Soar with Victory The volleyball Eagles soared high this year. Their record improved from last year and the team won the regionals. To achieve a winning season, the Eagles used their abili- ty to communicate with one another to put forth a team effort that took them to the top. “We worked well together, we never gave up, and we always stuck together,” said Janene Drake. Improving their skills and techniques paid off for the team, which helped them win the regionals. This year’s team was young, with only two seniors: Janene Drake and Fran Black- ketter. Two freshmen who saw action in some varsity games were Zoe Smith and Aime Spurgeon. The team’s goal was to have a winning season and attaining that goal made the team and coaches very pleased. “1 was pleased with our overall record and so was everybody else on the team. We achieved what we set out to do, and that was to have a winning season,” said Janene Drake. The team also went to sectionals this year; a first for the seniors. All in all. the season was a big success. Tonya DeCerlia After an outstanding play. Coach Dyer applauds the team while Coach Miller looks on Volleyball New runners and tough practices: Cross Country Makes CM History “Huffin’ and puffin’” is something that this year’s cross country team did a lot of. Just as the name implies, cross country run- ners run through trails and up and down hills and up and down hills and up and down even more hills. Obviously training requires a lot of running. The team has planned routes that they run around Bethalto. They run through Whispering Oaks to train on the hills, and they run through rural Bethalto to get used to the country. The two top runners on this year’s team were Fallon Overmeyer and Wally Gregory. They both had outstanding years by qualify- ing for regionals, and Gregory placed sev- enth at sectionals. By finishing seventh at sectionals, Gregory became the first cross country runner from Civic Memorial to quali- fy for state. At the state championships in Springfield, Wally ran his best three mile race finishing in 15 minutes and 20 seconds. His time received 80th place in the state. Miss Burnett, who has been coaching Cross Country for two years says, “Wally has the real potential to go back and place at the state championships his next three years in high school.” The team was rounded out Showing the form that took him to the state champion- ships, freshman Wally Gregory takes a practice run. “A team that runs together wins together,” says Coach Burnett, as she watches the cross country team warm up before a match.

JV Soccer Starts to Develop As freshman Jonathan Denny prepares to attack a Jersey- ville player, he hopes to get the ball for CM. Just how good is the Bethalto soccer pro- gram? To find out the answer just take a look at Civic Memorial’s junior varsity soc- cer program. Most of the freshmen on this team have been playing together for years. The junior varsity is following in the foot- steps of the varsity team with a dominant winning record. The team, which was made up mostly of freshman, was spear-headed by leading scorers Justin Wilson and Jonathan Denny. While varsity was winning the Missis- sippi Valley conference title, the junior varsi- ty was following suit by being one of the best junior varsity teams in the area. According to Coach Bertagnolli, the players on the team are above average for their age group. The most-improved players on this year’s team were Stephan Gallardo and Wally Gregory. Justin Wilson, Matt Batchelor, Dennis Ewing, Robby King, and Derik Holt- mann all put in time in varsity matches. Coach Bertagnolli believes that most of the team, whose toughest opponent this year was O’Fallon, will make up most of the varsi- ty team next year.

While playing on the varsity team his freshman year, Jamie Phillips shows his ball handling skills. Flying High Again The soccer team had great expectations going into the fall of 1987. The previous season had been the most successful by a C.M. soccer team. Nevertheless, the team lost its opening game to Mascoutah. The team was down but not out. They ran off a string of victories going into the Metro Cup Tournament, including a huge confer- ence win over O’Fallon. “The victory at home against O’Fallon really inspired every- one. We may have surprised some people by the way we controlled the''match,” said Coach Woelfel. The Metro tourney had always been tough on the team. C.M. had never won a soccer tournament before so the team really wanted to win it. With victories over Water- loo Gibault and Triad the soccer Eagles final- ly had a tournament trophy. “Winning the Metro Cup was definitely one of the high- lights of the year. It was awesome!” said senior midfielder Darren Lamere.

Numerous players had injuries and everyone was tired. Responding to their call to duty, senior co-captains Jeff Jones and Lathy Mar- tin pulled everyone together, and the team went on to win their second straight confer- ence championship with a 7-1-2 record in conference play. “The dedication and hard work of the players pushed us over the hump a number of times,” said Mr. Woelfel about his team. In the regionals, the team lost to the even- tual state champions Granite City. While the loss ended the season, it was a very strong effort. Many awards were given to the team and individuals after the season. The Eagles were named the area team of the year by the Optimist Club of Alton. A number of players were selected players of the week during the season and six team members were selected to the all-conference team. With a strong cast of upperclassmen and talented under- classmen, C.M. soccer should be strong in the future. The 1987 soccer Eagles were very exciting. The team gave the students a chance to have fun at the games and to fly with the Eagles. Scott Borror .

Varsity Soccer 61 Individual Contributions and Teamwork: Golfers Improve, Set Records This year’s golf team featured many out- standing individual accomplishments, as well as an improved record. Jon Stauder became the first male golfer to advance to sectionals. His regular season stroke average of 36.2 was the best ever by a CM golfer. He also set a CM record for the lowest score on nine holes with a 30. The team’s record of 15-13-1 was an im- provement from last year. Despite thirteen losses, the team played well, losing several matches by 5 strokes or less. Coach Carey described the team as ’’very persistent.” He cited Mike Wallace and Matt Plocher as examples. Carey also thought that senior Brian Donahue was the most im- proved. MVP Jon Stauder Even though the team will lose several players to graduation, all can look back on the season with fond memories.

Frosh Basketball Getting a Good Start This year’s freshman boys’ basketball team had a year to remember. The team finished first in the conference with a 13-5 record. They also won the Jerseyville tour- nament by defeating Wood River. The new coach this year was Rick Bertag- nolli. Transferring from Bunker Hill, where he coached the softball team to state compe- tition, Coach Bertagnolli brought his exper- ience and enthusiasm to CM. J. E. Cadle thought the highlight of the season was '‘beating Bunker Hill.” He added, “Coach Bertagnolli wanted to beat his old team very badly.” On the whole, the entire team agreed that the season was exciting. Greg Bierman as- sessed the season by calling it ‘‘very success- ful.” When asked how the team achieved such a good record, Justin Wilson said, “I was told not to reveal the secret of our success.” Kyle Dunlap Opponent Us Them Triad 69 42 O’Fallon 54 33 Marquette 44 58 Bunker Hill Forfeiture Roxana 56 35 Wood River 49 56 Alton 49 52 Jerseyville 51 42 Marquette 74 46 Triad 58 47 Granite City 38 46 Wood River 66 64 Roxana 60 36 Bunker Hill 56 30 Mascoutah 44 40 Tournaments Beat Wood River for first place in Jerseyville tournament Freshman Basketball After the Roxana offense takes a shot.

Sophomores got a lot of playing time this year, partly because some were starters in both JV and sophomore games. Coach Carey said that his team’s biggest strength was pushing the ball up the floor and getting good shots. “The team was pret- ty smart and that was what we needed to win.” said Coach Carey. Mike Wallace felt that both the JV and sophomore teams played well, but could have done better. Mike added that he felt shooting three pointers was the team’s big- gest strength. Due to the shortage of sophomores, ev- eryone received much playing time. This helped develop the individuals into better players. In addition, several freshmen gained valuable game experience at the JV and sophomore levels. In summary, everyone on the team seemed to be happy with the arrangement — many got more playing time than they might have otherwise, and the team im- proved as a result.Kevin Asaro Opponent Us Them Carrolton 44 46 Wood River 51 60 Highland 50 57 Jerseyville 79 56 Mascoutah 60 80 Staunton 62 57 Marquette 61 57 Bunker Hill 59 54 O’Fallon 52 72 Southwestern 58 67 Roxana 62 65 Litchfield 87 48 Wood River 59 68 Jerseyville 50 68 Mascoutah 62 60 Roxana 66 63 O’Fallon 62 80 Watching the game from the bench.

Sohomore JV Basketball Determination and Good Attitudes Varsity Cagers Never Quit What does one get when he puts two sophomores, one junior, and two seniors out on the basketball court? The 1987 varsity basketball team, of course! The basketball Eagles had many high points in the year and the players all seemed to have enjoyed themselves. To begin, the seniors’ leadership on the team kept the team a close knit group. Said freshman Steve Earnhart, “The team mem- bers had a good chemistry together.” The new 3 point rule also made the game more enjoyable for a few of the players. Junior Mike Wilson said, “It’s a great rule because it made the games more exciting.” Not only were the players enthusiastic about the games, but the coach got in on the action, too. Sophomore Lance Bristow said, “I’m glad that Mr. Harmon had more techni- cal fouls than I did.” “I’m basically happy with the season, but I wish we could have won more games,” Coach Harmon said. The Eagles showed a lot of improvement this year due to hard work, good attitudes and detemination . Coach Harmon also felt that the team was always determined when the chips were down. “We could have kicked back,” said Harmon, “but the team never did. They always tried their hardest.” In the end, the Eagles finished the season with respectable records of 9-15 overall and 4-8 in conference. Summed up Mike Wilson, “We all worked well together, and we al- ways had fun!” Andy Sticht The basketball team is, front: Lance Bristow, Lathy Martin, Kevin Asaro, Pat Wieneke, Dave Lindow, Jeff Kutter, and Steve Earnhart-, backrow: Coach Harmon, Mike Wallace, Jeff Whaley, Steve Myers, Brian McCormick, Mike Wilson, Scott Smith, and Coach Carey.

Placing third in the Waterloo com- petition enabled the cheerleaders to contin- ue on to state competition at Illinois State University. Training for state began right after the Waterloo competition. Sponsor Mrs. Eard- ley and Lisa Bertagnolli spent many long hours helping girls perfect their chants and cheers. When the girls weren’t practicing they were raising money for the trip by sell- ing suckers after school in the commons and at all types of sports event, making tickets for the 50 50 drawing, and selling chili sup- per tickets. The JV and varsity squads got new matching uniforms to wear to the state competition. Needless to say, their efforts paid off as they placed twentieth out of two hundred squads total in the state of Illinois. Senior Michele Barach said, “It was a lot of hard work, but overall I had a good time, and I’m really sad that it had to end.” Junior Becky Edwards said, “Being my first year on the squad I really appreciated all the help the girls gave me in perfecting my cheers.

On A Roll Girls’ Basketball This year’s varsity girls’ basketball team ended their season with a 14-6 record. This is the second year in a row that the Eagles have had a winning season. Hard work and long hours helped the Ea- gles develop into a good, competitive team. However, the girls always kept their sense of humor. “It wasn’t all hard work and no fun,’’ said senior Tammy Baker. “We had a lot of fun and everyone made it enjoyable.” The Eagles placed second in the Carrol- ton Tournament, which was a first in the history of varsity coach Bob Dempsey s ca- reer. He said, “We lived history, made histo- ry, and became a part of history.” The Ea- gles beat top seeded Jerseyville for a place in the finals. “We were underrated, but we still came out on top.” In the championship game, however, the Eagles lost to Beard- stown 43-55. In the regionals the Eagles did not fare as well. They lost in the first round of competi- tion to Alton. Senior Jennifer Darter said, “It was a really dissapointing loss, but, all in all, we still had a great year.” Janene Drake Girls’ Basketball Pulling up for a shot, senior Jennifer Darter shoots over the arms of a Jerseyville defender for two points.

Be- sides taking home trophies for 1st place from the CM tourney and 3rd place from the Mascoutah tourney, they also bagged 2nd place in the MVC and 2nd place at Region- al. Senior co-captain Eric McGrew said, “I felt the team had an excellent year. Next year’s team has the potential to be CM’s first conference championship team.” Although the schedule was tough, Mr. Bradley said that he was very pleased with the season. “I’m impressed with the improvement of the underclassmen, and I’m very pleased with Aaron Dugan for being the 4th CM wrestler to achieve 100 wins.” Coach Bradley picked Kenny Howell for MVP because of his hard work, dedication, and massive improve- ment. Howell says of the season, “I’d like to thank Coach Bradley and Coach Clarkston for all their help. They taught me a lot. I’m going for first next year at state.” Speaking of the sport in general, the team members all agree that wrestling is rough and vigorous. Senior Kevin Orr says, ‘‘The practices were challenging and usually hard. But the hard work really paid off.” Mark Depping agrees. ‘‘Wrestling is a very de- manding and competitive sport,” he said. ‘‘It requires hours of dedication and hard work — running, lifting, wrestling for hours every night.” As one of three freshmen on the varsity team, 98 pound Stephan Gallardo said of the upperclassmen, ‘‘It was fun being around those guys because they made me feel like one of them. I made many new friends.” Apparently, everyone felt similarly good about the season, and most agreed that wrestling was fun.

Not only did they put in long hours and hard work into practices and cheering, but they also put forth their efforts to raise mon- ey for the wrestlers. They sold cookies and baked goods at the wrestling tournament held at Civic Memorial. Said sophomore Mary Davis, “I really enjoyed helping out to raise money for the wrestling team.” Of course, the cheerleaders also fulfilled their traditional roles of encouraging crowd sup- port for the team.

Dedicated Freshmen Go Through Tough Workouts JV Wrestlers Steadily Improve This years JV wrestling team, one of great determination, produced a comparable re- cord of five wins and five losses. Although the team did not have a season in which more wins than losses were accu- mulated, there were many highpoints in this year’s season. Freshman Jason Hartsock recalls, “The practices were long and tough, but it was a lot of fun being a wrestler for the high school.” Mr. Bradley, mainly the varsity coach, commented on the JV wrestlers as being one of the best conditioned freshman-sophomore group of wrestlers that he has seen here at CM. Mr. Bradley described the team’s pro- gress as being a steady improvement from the beginning of the season to the end of the season. Although as Mr. Bradley states, “Freshman go through much tougher prac- tices than the rest of the team,” freshmen like Jason Hartsock and Stephan Gallardo both agree that being a wrestler is a lot of fun. Team members, with a lot of hard work and dedication, pleased both Coach Clark- ston and Coach Bradley very much. Senior team co-captain Eric McGrew commented on the underclassmen by saying,“The under- classmen show a lot of potential and 1 think they’ll do an excellent job next year. Steve Burk While the referee watches closely, Donnie Hamilton holds his opponent in a cradle. JV Wrestling Looking ahead . . . Frosh bolster sophs This year’s freshman baseball season was a successful one in many respects. Introduc- ing freshmen to high school baseball is one of the key purposes of the team, and it accomplished this goal very well; in fact, several freshmen played on the sophomore team. Although the overall team record was 6-10, the freshmen were 6-2 when they had the whole team playing. Coach Bruening points out, “Everyone got to play a lot due to a lot of people playing on two levels.” He cites the win over area powerhouse Belleville West as the high- light of the season. Dennis Ewing and Marc Farrell were out- standing on the pitching mound, while Matt Batchelor was the leading base stealer, and Jonathan Denney was the leading hitter. Denney hit two homeruns in one game. When asked what the high point of the fresh- man season was for him, Batchelor recalled when he went 4-5 against Mascoutah. The freshman baseball team is, front: John Rhodes, Pat Hill, Kevin Dunlap, Greg Morin, Chad Meisenhei, David Past ay, and Tom Meiser, back row: Coach Bruening, Chris Borror, Jason Crowe, Corey Smith, Bryan Farrel, Brian Kaufman, Bobby Becraft, Matt Batchelor, Justin Wilson, Brent Lowen, Jonathan Denny, Ben Floyd, Dennis Ewing, Chris Harmon, and Ross Chapman. 14-8 record JV team excels With a record of 14-8, this year’s sopho- more baseball team won more games than any JV team ever, according to Coach Dan Wiese man. For the coach, the game against Jersey- ville, which the Eagles won 4-2 in 8 innings and made 3 double plays, was the highlight of the season. Matt Batchelor cites that as his favorite game, too, because of the 2 diving plays he made. Coach Wieseman sums up the season, “It was very enjoyable because the kids worked hard, ” despite an eye injury caused by a wild pitch from the batting cage which kept the coach home for several days. He men- tions Chris Summers, Bobby Ludlum, Mike Laughlin, and Kevin Roberts among the team’s leaders.

Perfecting his form, Mike Paslay practices throwing with a teammate. hue as MVP, Coach Middleton cites Scott Smith for his 2 homeruns against O’Fallon, Mike Wilson for leading the team in hitting, and Andy Sticht for outstanding perfor- mances in the Highland and Wood River games. The two wins in the Wood River tourna- ment and the win over Highland who beat everyone in the first round of conference play were highlights of the season. Some of the problems plaguing the Eagles this season were being short of pitching and making too many errors. Also, in some games, the Eagles gave their opponents big innings which made it hard for the Eagles to come back and win. Rushing to throw out the runner at third, Andy Sticht puts forth his best effort. As he prepares to throw the runner out at home, Scott Borror reaches back for the throw. Varsity Baseball JV Program, Talented Freshmen Softball Keeps Winning Edge The beginnning of March means different things to different people. To the softball players at CM it designates the start of a new season. The softball Eagles enjoy a strong tradition of success. This year’s team did not let that tradition fall. The loss of three in- fielders to graduation put some team mem- bers in new positions. Seniors Tonya DeGer- lia and Janene Drake anchored the corners to the infield. Freshman Zoe Smith saw ac- tion at second base. Other freshmen Aimee Spurgeon and Minette Cunningham found time in the outfield while Debbie Rothe was used as a backup pitcher. The Eagles jumped off to a good start with a 9-1 record including 8 shutouts. By the end of May their record was 15-5 with two games remaining before post-season play began. The year also marked the beginning of a separate JV program with Mr. Bertagnolli as the coach. The JV team had its own sched- ule and coaching assistance from Kim Davis. All in all, the 1988 softball season kept the tradition of victory alive, and the Eagles look ahead to yet another successful season as they prepare on the varsity and JV levels. In her second year as the Eagles’ pitcher, junior Terri Hansel goes through her windup to deliver yet another pitch. The softball Eagles are, front: Tammy Baker.

Softball Asaro, Gregory Leaders of the Eagle Pack Being the third place team in the Missis- sippi Valley Conference, scoring points at sectionals, and sending someone to state all made this a successful track season for the Eagles. Freshman runner Wally Gregory encored his outstanding performance in cross coun- try by an equally outstanding performance on the track team, advancing to state com- petition at Eastern Illinois University May 28. Another highlight of the boys’ track sea- son included the distance medley team of Mike Frasier, Kevin Asaro, Shawn Callies, and Fallon Overmeyer breaking the school record with a time of 11:26.0. Senior Kevin Asaro’s assessment of the season was, “Track was really fun this year. We won some meets which until now we had never won since my freshman year. The team really worked hard and in the end it all paid off. We had one of the best groups of distance runners in the area.” Competing in the high jump, the 800 run, and the distance medley, Asaro was honored as track MVP. Other freshmen showing promise were recognized by Coach Pat Asaro. Jeremy Moore broke the freshmen record in both the 100 dash and the 200, while Matt Folmnsbee broke records in the triple jump and the high jump as well as contributing to the 400 and the 1600 relays. Kun Ho No was a winner in the shot put, and Shawn Callies broke the 400 dash record. Coaches Asaro, Beck, and Burnett are encouraged with this talent coming up.

In 1988, this situation meant many school records were shattered. The season, a series of ups and downs, peaked at the sectional tournament. Many school records were broken in this competi- tion (see “record setters” box). Said senior Stacey Batchelor, “Sectionals were really great. Records were being broken left and right!” The low point of the season occured when the team lost to Roxana for the Athletic Directors cup. The team was dissapointed by its loss to its underdog rival. In addition to the competition, girls out for track claimed to reap personal benefits, too. Said Christine Long, “Running track is a great way to shape up!” Track is also a good confidence builder. “I was really pleased be- cause I did better than I had expected to,” said Julie Forrester. Overall, the season was a shining success.

The team, which had no seniors, experienced a season of learning. Made up on 8 juniors, 3 so- phomres, and 1 freshman, the team finished the season at 7-7, the best record since Mr. Eckert became coach. “This is definetely the best team I’ve had,” said Coach Eckert. “They all worked hard and I think their re- cord shows it.” The team finished fourth in conference, only 2 points behind O’Fallon. The medal winners at conference were Steve Mann, with third place, second sin- gles; Warren Lindley, third place, third sin- gles; and Jesse Stallings and Steve Mann playing doubles won third place, first dou- bles. At the sectional tournament Mann and Stallings competed in the doubles competi- tion and placed fourth. Lindley played first singles and won the first round. Kelley played second singles.

This historic trip was made by seniors Jenny Kleuter and Jodi Nappier. They were the number 1 doubles team for CM. Besides number 1 doubles these girls were also num- bers 1 and 2 in singles. Amy Crispi played number 3 singles and Julie Cisler played number 4 singles. The team lost 4 of its top 6 players to graduation, but is looking to the juniors and underclassmen for a strong sea- son next year. Mr. Eckert said, “I’m looking forward to another trip to state next year, but this time I’d like to take the whole team.” The team, while serious about their game, took time out to enjoy a post-season party at the coach’s house, where they cele- brated the outstanding season.

Transferring here from other schools in the district are Mrs. Phillips and Mrs. Magac from Trimpe Junior High and Mrs. Prettyman and Mrs. Middleton from Forest Homes. Teaching for the first time at CM are: Mr. Sutton, science; Mr. Buerkett, social studies; Mr. Huddleston, Alternative Education; Mrs. Rogers, chorus; Mr. Bertag- nolli, P.E.; and Mr. Mikulay, band.

Administration Principal Willard Wallace Administration Changes Familiar Faces, Different Places Many changes came with the beginning of the 1987-88 school year. Many administrators and teachers moved to different po- sitions in the school district. The new arrangement provided fa- miliar faces in new places. Dis- trict administration was one place where changes occurred. Jerry McCann gave up his job as principal of Civic Memorial High School to take on the position of Assistant Superintendent. Assis- tant principals Shelton Mayes and Martha Swann both retired at the end of the ’86-’87 school year. McCann’s move and the deans’ retiring created three new positions in the high school office. In addition, the revamped attendance system created an- other vacancy in the office. Wil- lard Wallace, a familiar face from Wilbur Trimpe Junior High, took on the job of princi- pal at C.M. The assistant princi- pal positions were filled by famil- iar faces, too. Donna Murphy, best known for her contribution to the English department, tack- led the job of dean of girls. She said, ”1 like the people I work with in the office, and 1 also miss my colleagues in the English of- fice. Gary Wintjen, former athle- tic director, took on the respon- sibilities of dean of boys. Former library secretary Becky Wrish- nick became the attendance sec- retary, running the new, com- puter-based attendance system. Wrishnick noted, ’’Changing po- sitions was nice, and working in the attendance office is more of a challenge.” Along with the changes in ad- ministration came faculty moves. Mary Ann Magac and Carol Phillips moved to the high school from the junior high. Both are English teachers. With all of the recent moves, students may wonder what other faculty and adminstration changes might be in years to come. In any case, this year’s changes have been well-re- cieved, and the new arrange- ments seem to work well. Jolene Farris Assistant Principal Donna Murphy Assistant Principal Gary Wintjen Administration •i'if'if ii Student teachers find out If they fit in Student teachers, whether they come in and teach biology or physical education, all seem to have some degree of difficulty in fitting in. After this is accomplished, though, they can usually become very comfortable in their new surroundings. John Schultz, who did his student teaching in the business de- partment in the fall fit in so well that he stayed (having earned his teaching certifi- cate) and substituted for the rest of the year for two teachers who went on leave. Student teaching is a state requirement for teacher certification and is usually done during the fourth year of college. Before doing student teaching, one must first go to a class and observe for a period of time. During this period of time, the student teach- er learns many teacher-oriented jobs. For instance, he learns the basic skills of teaching such as taking attendance, organizing lesson plans, disciplining students, and forming tests. Among this year’s student teachers were Sheila Hitchens and Linda Wiersma in the English department, Louis Arnold and Sher- ry Haswarey in the science department, and Kim Davis in health. Of these, one, Ms. Has- warey, found that teaching was not for her and went into another career. Another one of this year’s student teach- ers, Ms. Paniagua, worked in the physical education department. Coming from Mac- Murray College, CM’s first student teacher from there (most of them come from SIUE), she was under the supervision of Ms. Ims. Being the number one tennis player and playing for four years at MacMurray, she had a lot of knowledge in the field of sports to offer CM students. Under the coaching and supervision of a college instructor as well as the cooperating high school teacher, the student teacher has to learn many new things. The experience is something that will prepare him for the real teaching world. With the fresh perspective they bring, student teachers can enrich the educational atmosphere for CM, too.

Faculty ,91 ' CM Adds New Faculty New teachers come from many areas Of Civic Memorial’s 64 staff members this year, seven are new to the high school. Most of the teachers transferred from local schools or from schools within the district. Mrs. Magac, who teaches English at CM, taught at Wood River High School and Wil- bur Trimpe Junior High before joining the staff at CM. “I like the staff and the materi- als that are taught,” said Mrs. Magac. ‘‘It’s fun to see the kids I used to teach at the junior high.” Another English teacher, Mrs. Phillips, also came to the high school from the junior high. A graduate of Millikin Uni- versity, she said, “The reason I transferred was that I needed a change.” She also en- joys teaching the older students at the high school. Mr. Bertagnolli, a PE teacher and coach, said, “This high school is interesting because of the many different classes is has to offer for the students.” Mr. Bertagnolli used to work at Bunker Hill High School, where he coached their softball team to the state championship. Formerly a Forest Homes Elementary School teacher, Mrs. Middleton said, “I en- joy working with the administrators at CM because of their support for the staff.” Mrs. Middleton, a special education teacher, also pointed out, “It’s different working with older students.” Mrs. Prettyman also transferred from For- est Homes. She used to teach at CM before she spent two years at Forest Homes. Mrs. Prettyman, a home economics teacher, said, “I like teaching both grade school and high school.” Mr. Mikulay, the new band instructor, also enjoys teaching at the high school. “I was pleasantly suprised with the abilities of CM students.” A graduate of South Eastern Los Angeles Univeristy, Mr. Mikulay said, “The band and drill team have the potential to do great.” Civic Memorial also got a new chorus teacher this year. Mrs. Rogers, an SIUE gra- duate, gave private French horn lessons be- fore coming to CM. She said, “I like teaching here, and it is a real challenge.” All in all, all of this year’s new teachers seem to agree that teaching at CM is inter- esting, challenging, and enjoyable.

But these things would not be possi- ble without the people who hold the school together. These peo- ple are the cooks, the custo- dians, and the secretaries — the people who keep CM from com- ing apart at the seams. The cooks are always there dishing out the food students all have learned to love. The custodians work endlessly to keep the school clean and make it a healthy environment. The secre- taries are always on hand to help out that lost student or to keep the teachers going when it is just not their day. Even though com- puterized, the attendance secre- tary has one of the toughest jobs, which is trying to keep track of all of the students. With- out these people we students and teachers would find it hard to survive. Janene Drake Secretaries Barb Dreith and Darlene Link (1) are assisted by attendance secretary Becky Wrischnik (2) and library secretary Alice Heiderscheid (3). Theresa Griffin (4) works in the guidance office, and Mary Hyden (5) helps students by being a teacher clerk. 5 Custodians are (top to bottom) Patsy Col man, Ray Deck, Theresa Osborne, Dor Steiner, and Clara Taynor. This year marks the end of a way of life for the seniors, and the beginning of life in the real world. Seniors will have big decisions to make. Some may go to college to further their education. Some may go straight to work, while others may join the service. Al- though they have plenty to look forward to, they also have several great memories. Sen- iors were very successful in sports this year. Among other outstanding students, Clint Phillips, Jodi Nappier, Jenny Klueter, and the cheerleaders showed outstanding talent and did the senior class proud. Clint Phillips, who was voted MVP for this year’s MVC soccer champions said,“I’ve worked really hard the last two seasons to win MVP two times in a row. The reason for our success is that everyone worked hard and worked to- gether.” Jodi Nappier and Jenny Klueter went to state in doubles tennis. They both worked very hard to go as far they did. “It was worth as the hard work to go to state,” says Jodi. “Mr. Eckert taught us a lot this year and his advice really paid off.” Perhaps the most exciting moment of the seniors’ year was when they finally won the spirit yell for the first time in their years at CM.

Helena Carlsson was in Mr. Salanik's Spanish II class. She is also fluent in English, German, and French as well as her native Swedish. During her visit to our school. Helena Carlsson takes advan- tage of using the CM library for research papers. ggS r il§r IP Exchange Student Swedish Student Visits CM Helena Carlsson was Civic Memorial’s ex- change student from Kalstad, Sweden. Dur- ing her visit, she lived at the home of Paul and Debbie Burney and their two daughters Amie and Lisa. Helena said school is very different at CM compared to her school in her home town. “In Sweden, high school is much like Ameri- can colleges. You go to classes that range in time from fifteen minutes to one hour or more. It depends on what needs to be ac- complished that day.” There are no sports at Helena’s school. To participate in a sport a student must join a special club. Home- comings and formal dances are also very uncommon. During her stay, Helena took advantage of enjoying CM’s homecoming dance. Dating was something else Helena found to be different. “Here everybody goes on one-on-one dates, and at home we all go in large numbers.” She added, “If I do go out with one particluar guy we often split the bills.” Even with all of the differences, Helena noticed many similarities. “The weekends are spent in basically the same way here as they are at home. I go to movies, parties, and sometimes a disco.” There is one thing Helena says that people frequently do in Sweden that Americans also do- eat at fast- food restaurants. “We have a McDonalds, but we rarely go because it is so expensive.” Food is not the only thing thing that is expen- sive; Helena says that most everything is cheaper here than it is where she lives. Driver’s Education is among the classes Helena took this year. Although she is sev- enteen years old, she will still have to wait until she is eighteen before she receives her license in Sweden. Helena also noticed a difference in the winters. “At home we have snow from No- vember to April. It’s a nice change not hav- ing to bundle up whenever I go outside.” However, Helena does miss going to the mountains to ski. Helena has made many friends while at CM and has really enjoyed herself. “When I first arrived here I did not think I would ever fit in. Almost immediately, though, people started talking to me. They have all made me feel very welcome. Although American is very different to me, I hope I will be able to return here someday for another visit.” Sherry Vinyard In Mr, Wallace's office, senior class president Brad Labcrtew. vice-presi- dent Rhonda Martin, and secretary treasurer Andy Sticht talk about op- tions for the class's gift to the school.

Civic Memorials academic finest are traditionally honored at several different gatherings. The Wood River Kiwanis held a banquet at Amelia‘s for the top ten overall students. Honored were Brad Labertew, Dave Lin- dow, Pat Wieneke, Andy Sticht, Mike Pas- lay, Michele Barach, Ear lee n Stutz, Teresa Ambrose, Jennifer Darter, and Stacey Bat- chelor. At the banquet, Michele Barach was announced as the winner of the $500 Kiwanis scholarship. The Bethalto Rotary club recognized the top ten academic students with a similar ban- quet at Amelia’s. After dinner, Rhonda Mar- tin, Brad Labertew, Dave Lindow, Pat Wien- eke, Daniel Lee, Michele Barach, Steve Ta- vernier, Tracy Neunaber, Cheryl Morgan, and Rebekah Lott were treated to a slide show presentation by a representative of the Alton Area Twin Rivers Growth Associ- ation. The school honors banquet, held on May 10, is a traditional event honoring those stu- dents who achieved honor roll or better for at least 3 quarters of the school year. Work- ing as waiters and waitresses, CM teachers served students and their families. After the meal, the group went to the auditorium for the National Honor Society Induction. This year, 28 juniors and 8 seniors were induct- ed. After hearing speeches on the four char- acteristics of a National Honor Society mem- ber — scholarhip, leadership, character, and service — inductees took an oath to uphold these qualities and became official members of the society. At the senior awards assembly, held dur- ing class time the next day, juniors and sen- iors gathered in the auditorium to learn of their peers4 accomplishments. Some who won local scholarships were Dave Lindow, BEA scholarship; Cheryl Morgan, Albrecht Hamlin scholarship; Jeff Hunt, Knights of Columbus award; and Evin Stanford, Jay- cees Erwin Plegge Scholarship. Those who Evin Stanl %£ � ■ a att talent award NortUrcdevedand pbnS to Shannan N Co ege, from Monmouth study art- Jennifer Darter won scholarships from their future college or university were also recognized. Shannan Noris won an art talent scholarship to Mon- mouth College; Michelle Martin won an hon- or scholarship to Monmouth. Donnie Flack received a presidential scholarship to SIUE. Andy Sticht and Pat Wieneke both won scholarships from Northeast Missouri State, and Teresa Ambrose won a scholarship from Blackburn College. Besides scholarships, winners of many other awards were recognized for their ac- complishments. Kevin Asaro received the Good Citizenship Award from the Illinois Sons of the American Revolution. One of only 14 students from Madison county to receive the award, Kevin was selected be- cause of his dependability, cooperation, leadership, and patriotism. The Army Re- serve honored Jennifer Darter and Pat Wieneke, naming them National Scholar Athletes. The CM business department named Mary Lewey CM‘s Outstanding Busi- ness Education Student. The Illinois Council of Teachers of Mathmatics recognized Pat Wieneke and Deanna Hodapp for their ac- complishments in the math department. Fi- nally, those participating in the school dra- matic productions were honored. Jason Travis and Darla Simmons were named Best Actor and Actress, respectively, and Mi- chelle Martin received the Directors Award. In summary, the “Touch of Class” added to our school by these and other individuals deserves commendation. Those who went the extra mile for excellence were properly recognized at these various gatherings.

(Above) Pinning her cap in place, Lisa Wegman eagerly awaits commencement as the class of ’88 lines up in the commons. “Tonight marks the end of one chapter in our lives and the beginning of another, a new and challenging one,” said student council president Andy Sticht. Andy plans to attend Northeast Missouri State University. Accepting his diploma from board member Sharon Rothe, Kevin Asaro thinks of a bright future ahead. Commencement Range of Emotions Seen at Commencement 215 Seniors Reach Milestone Class of ’88 valedictorian Brad Labertew spoke of CM as a place that “breeds comraderie and a concern for others. Brad plans to attend Drake University. Commencement As the band played Elgar’s Pomp and Circumstance, 215 seniors marched out into the stadium to accept their diplomas and end their high school days. Again in 1988, the seniors were able to graduate outside. Up until 1987, rain had interfered with plans to have outdoor gradu- ations. Said senior Steve Burk, “Maybe the streak is reversed and they’ll be able to have it outside every year.” Indeed, no rain threatened this year’s ceremonies. In fact, the seventy degree evening and the huge crowd packing the stadium bleachers made for a perfect cere- monial setting. Also for the second year, baccalaureate services were held in the audi- torium. This year, services were held on May 22 at 8:00 P.M. After the senior chorus members sang their musical selection, The Reverend Charles West of First Baptist Church of Bethalto delivered an address to the seniors and their families. He spoke of life as a series of trades, good and bad. To illustrate, he called up Mary Beth Cooper, Jeff Jones, Dave Lindow, and Michelle Mar- tin to make a series of trades — money for trinkets and vice-versa. First, though, he ad- vised them to trust him completely, and if so, they “would be better off when they left than when they came.” Those who trusted Reverend West ended up with a $10 IOU. In any case, The Reverend’s address was both meaningful and effective at conveying his message. The graduation ceremony also had its share of meaningful messages. After the sen- ior chorus members sang, Superindent of Schools Lewis Hauser introduced the vale- dictorian of the class of 1988, Brad Laber- tew. In his address Brad thanked friends, family, and the school district. In addition, he spoke of the class and its future. “Instead of setting some lofty goal for the class,” Laber- tew said, “I’d rather challenge each member of the class of ’88 to set and strive for goals with the betterment of society in mind.” Fi- nally, he reminded everyone that the class of ’88 will always have something no one can take away — their four years at CM. In his address as student council presi- dent, Andy Sticht spoke of the future and what it holds for the class of ’88. “Tonight is a giant step along the road to becoming adults, self-sufficient members of our com- munitities.” He also pointed out, “our ex- periences at CM will give a solid base on which to build.” Finally, Andy quoted John Naisbitt’s Megatrends: “My God, what a fan- tastic time to be alive!” Speaking again as president of the senior class. Brad Labertew explained the tradition of the passing of the gavel. After this de- scription, Brad presented the gavel to Chad Hausman, president of the class of ’89. As the class was presented by Mr. Wal- lace, Mrs. Murphy, and Mr. Wintjen, the board of education members presented the graduates their diplomas and delivered con- gratulations. Mike Paslay was recognized as having perfect attendance his entire high school career, and Dave Lindow was an- nounced salutorian. After all class members returned to their seats, the graduates moved their tassel as a group from right to left, symbolizing the end of high school as a part of life. After Reverend O'Conneirs benediction, graduates tossed their caps into the air in celebration of their achievement. As the crowd pushed its way to the parking lot, graduates laughed and cried. An array of emotions were present — sorrow, joy, look- ing back, and looking ahead. Everyone, how- ever, would agree that graduation is both an end and a beginning — the end of high school, but just the beginning of life. Brad Labertew Parents sponsor safe party; ‘Here we come now . . . ’ Cries of “Hit Me!” could be heard throughout the KC Hall. Of course, they came from the blackjack table, where many graduates spent their evening celebrating in an attempt to win big money to buy prizes. For the third year in a row, senior parents organized this chemical-free celebration fol- lowing formal graduation exercises. This year, under the direction of Gayle Eardley, parents collected money and prizes from area businesses, organizations and indivi- duals, and arranged the event in order to provide a drug-free graduation celebration for students. Michelle Martin, student chair- man, coordinated the efforts of CM stu- dents. Held from 11:00 P.M. Friday until 6:00 A.M. Saturday, the after-grad party, with the theme “Here we come now gave students the opportunity to gamble, eat, and dance, and visit. Also, a video compilation of the seniors’ last year of high school was played over a big-screen TV for all to enjoy. Above: For many seniors, the refreshments were the best part of the night. Deanna Virgin enjoys her pizza. Right: Video tapes of the year’s highlights were viewed on big screen TV and brought back memories to these seniors who gathered for the last time. At the one end of the hall, students could gamble at either the blackjack tables or over- and-under 7 tables. Said Darren Lamere, “I started playing blackjack, and before I knew it, I was hooked!” At both tables, cheers of victory and moans of defeat were heard all night long. At 5:00 A.M., Homer Henke, auctioneer, arrived to auction off the big prizes. Those who multiplied their play mon- ey waited for the prizes that they wanted to come on the block, while those who had lost their money throughout the evening watched. The most expensive prize, a VCR, went to Brian Garland for 60 million dollars.

When asked what she liked best about being a junior, Aimee Ven- tress said, “I’m glad we’re finally upperclass- men. I love the respect from freshmen and sophomores!” The PSAT and ACT tests are usually tak- en during the junior year. The PSAT is a practice test for the SAT, which is given the senior year. The ACT is another test which many colleges use to determine whom they admit. Before the ACT was given, Aaron Dugan expressed his feelings by saying, ‘‘The PSAT was awful, and I’m not looking forward to the ACT.” Being on prom committees is also exciting for juniors. It gives them a chance to get in and take charge of a major school event. ‘‘I like being on the prom committtee. I’m look- ing forward to a terrific prom!” commented Angie Clark. Mike Burrell Working on the junior float proves to be an exciting experience for Shelly Davis. The junior float was done at Aimee Dossett's house. They had lots of help from many juniors. The float didn’t place, but working on it was fun.

The PSAT is given in the fall for anyone who wishes to prepare for the ACT. When asked how the PSAT helped him prepare for the ACT, ju- nior Eric Carpenter said, “It gave me an idea of what was going to be on the ACT and it helped me prepare for it.“ Many juniors feel alot of pressure from the ACT because col- lege admission depends so much on a suc- cessful score. Some juniors feel that colleges should not put their main emphasis on the ACT score. Junior Aaron Dugan said, “Col- leges should not depend on ACT scores be- cause you could mess up.“ Popular opinion seems to approve of colleges’ use of the scores because they feel it shows what they have learned. Junior Terri Hansel said, “I believe that the ACT gave an accurate eval- uation of my knowledge. Whatever one’s views on the tests, everyone seems to agree that both tests are an important part of being a junior. Carie Nichols Working hard in Mr. Wiesemaris algebra class.

The key words tests seem to be a favorite of juniors as they are not the standard study- study-study tests. “The tests make it easier to learn history than by learning big para- graphs,” said junior Chad Roberson. Some juniors find this process very re- warding and educational. “Mr. Jackson’s process of saying the words orally and giving a little story is easier to remember, and more fun than to sit for an hour and write,” said junior Chad Hausman. For the most part, juniors seem to be quite pleased with this new aspect of test- taking, so that more light can be shed on this mystery of history.

Be- sides driving with their new licenses, most go to movies. A variety of movies were released this year, and they ranged from suspense thrillers to adventurous babysitting comedies. One of the favorites of the female students at CM in the fall of ’87 was Dirty Dancing. The movie told the story of a teenage girl who fell in love with her tango instructor. Junior Christine Long said, ‘‘It made me want to get up and dance. Three Men and a Baby was a comedy about three well-to-do bachelors trying to raise an infant girl left on their doorstep. Said junior Michelle K. Williams, “I laughed through the whole movie. The thriller of the year was about a married man who had a relationship with a woman who turned out to be psychotic killer. The movie Fatal Attraction was the talk of the town and even got a cover story in Time magazine. “It kept me on the edge of my seat, said junior Shelley Davis.

This year’s sales proved success- ful as nearly four thousand dollars were raised. When asked how this year has com- pared to past years,Mr.Johnson reported that this has been the best in three years for magazine sales. Several juniors won prizes such as candy and money. Then, of course, there were the ever-popular weepies. Oth- ers won more valuable prizes .Todd Meiser sold the most magazines and won a minia- ture tele vision.

Juniors Many enjoyable things come along with being a sopho- more, some of which are ordering class rings and getting driver’s li- censes. Sophomores, having had one year of high school already, think they are ready to handle just about anything that’s thrown their way. Then they find out, much to their surprise, they don’t know everything. How do you do a three point turnabout? What’s the lead- ing cause of heart disease? These questions and more are asked of sophomores. “The classes are harder, but there are more opportunities for me, and I’ve made a lot of friends,” said Pilar Gallardo. It’s not all work and no play though. Sophomores get to tease the freshmen, and drive around with their friends. To ease their minds, they know that they are half- way there to being seniors. Jenny Klueter Sophomores Anthony Lee and April Hunter demon- strate the techniques used to master the simulators Along with driver’s ed., sophomores also order class rings, and are chosen for Prom slaves.

For many sophomores, the thrill of driving a car is quite an experience. Certainly the pitfalls of Driver’s Ed (running over small animals, backing into trashcans, the fear of manual transmissions) are not likely to be forgotten. After Driver’s Ed begins, one must under- go the grueling ritual of driving with a par- ent. This “survival of the fittest’’ experience is not recommended for parents with back problems or heart trouble. According to sophomore Jennifer Yancey, “My father got out of the car and kissed the ground. My mother just sat there with little beads of sweat trickling down her face. I never want- ed to drive another car again!” Jennifer Cri- spi, Brian McCormick, and Warren Lindley all agreed that their parents cannot wait for them to drive. Eric Bloodworth added a popular sentiment, “Driving makes my par- ents wonder what they like more — the car or me!” Aimee Dossett Taking a break from his assignment, Chris Schmidt checks his answer with his neighbor’s. 138 Sophomores Angela Bradley Kristin Brakhane Christy Breyer Dawn Bricker Lance Bristow Wendy Brooks Kurtis Brown John Bruhn Tracey Bryant Andrea Burrow Denise Carroll Julie Cisler Christine Clark Jason Compton Christy Connoyer Paul Cougill Toni Crane Jennifer Crispi Adam Darr Raymond Davenport Bob Davis Mary Davis Robert Davis Tina Debose While scrutinizing his well-done assignment.Bobby Lud- ium smiles with satisfaction.

Sophomores 139 Sophs Cherish Class Rings A tassle, a diploma, a yearbook, a class key — all of these things may remind one of his high school days. But another reminder important to many sophomores is the class ring. Tracy Szwargulski remarked, “It’s something to have to remember your high school years.” Most students order their rings during the sophomore year. Nothing could be so personal as the class ring, as each ring is unique to the individual. One may create his own ring based on which metal he uses, which color of stone, and which activities are chosen. The rings can be ordered through a jeweler or through Jos- tens at school. But as Brian McMormick pointed out. ‘‘I thought it was a neat idea until I had to pay for it.” Class rings are often symbols of relation- ships. When a girl wears a boy’s class ring, she is usually marked as “off limits” to oth- ers. They may also symbolize a milestone. As Darren Battles said, “It’s a symbol of being halfway through my high school years.” Whatever the rings symbolize, they are certain to be cherished by those who own them. “It’s something neat to have when you graduate,” concludes Mike McCollum.

A few sophomores expressed their fears about the course. Tony Eaton, Veroni- ca Kimbro, and Phil Johnson said that their first fear was failing the permit test. Another sophomore, Jeni Wadlow said that her big- gest fear was “me behind the wheel of that drivers’ ed car.” Gordy McRae had a much bigger fear. He said, “I was afraid I’d wreck the car; in fact, I almost did!” Rachel Woods said, “The teachers intimidated me at first, but once we got going they seemed alot nicer.” One of the exciting aspects of getting a drivers’ license is having more independence and no longer having to depend on Mom and Dad to get where the teenager needs to be taken. In the end, most students find that the excitement of driving far outweighs the fear. Wendy Nasso Listening closely in class, sophomore Gordy McRae smiles proudly as he answers the question.

This year the Eagles had sophomores playing on football, basketball, and base- ball teams. Making the varsity team does not come easily for those sophomores that play varsity ball. They have to work twice as hard, and often feel like they have to prove themselves, but all agree that it is worth the extra effort. Brian McCormick , a sophomore basketball player, said, “Playing on varsity is a great experience.” Tony Vogel, another sophomore athlete adds. “Playing varsi- ty football this year is helping me prepare for my junior and senior years.” Brad Klaustermier also adds that, “The juniors and seniors make me feel like I’m impor- tant.” Altogether, the athletes feel that playing on varsi- ty is a great experience, and that it will help them to excell in the future. Sophomores are “just” considered underclassmen, and may be looked down upon very much; but they are the backbone of the Eagles’ future athletics.

AWESOME Years Sophomore year is an exciting year for most students. They get their class rings, but most importantly, they get their drivers li- censes. As Brenda Godar says,“driver’s edu- cation is pretty scary to think about.” Yet through all the fun and excitement, it’s a year of final adjustment “When you’re a freshmen, everyone picks on you, but being a sophomore means you get to do the picking.” says sophomore Tiffany Bauer. Basically, sophomores are just trying to get through high school with as much ease, and having as much fun as possible. Of course, they have something to look forward to. “Freshman year was OK, sophomore year has been great, but the next two years are going to be AWESOME!” predicts Bob Ludlam.

Will I find my classes? Will I like my teachers? Will I make new friends? After the first couple of weeks, freshmen think they’ve got it made, but then they find out that it’s not easy being the youngest in the school. They have to put up with the upper- classmen’s pranks and harrassing. “It’s kind of frightening because at first you don’t know many people, but after awhile you become more comfortable with being a freshman,” said Nikki Cathorall. Though the upperclassmen can be hard on freshmen, it’s only because they got the same treatment when they were the youn- gest in the school. This year’s freshmen will soon find out that it’s not so bad; after all, next year there’s a whole new class of fresh- men to annoy. Jenny Klueter Sooner or later, all freshmen realize that upperclassmen can be very cruel. Michelle Myers and Jamie Phillips find out the hard way. FRESHMEN Definition of Freshman “Freshman, fresh’man, n. pi. freshmen. A first year student in a high school or universi- ty; a novice.-a.” This defintion was provided by the College Edition New Webster’s Dic- tionary. If you ask me, it’s a rather boring definition for the freshmen class of Civic Memorial. The High School Edition Civic Memorial Dictionary states that freshmen are little worrywarts who are terrified about not find- ing their classes the first day of school. They are the ones who end up being late to class because they forgot their locker combina- tions. According to freshman Sonya Warren, “I was worried mostly about making new friends.” Certain brown-nosing freshmen can often be found “buddying” up to the seniors. They are also the ones who walk down the hall with a look like they had just seen Freddy Kruegerfmaybe it’s just that they are terrified about being initiated). Even though this does sound low and ri- diculous, all have to admit that they were there once too (some more than once). A word from the wise, this year’s freshmen aren’t bad. Now, to confess, without them, high school would be boring. Erin Schneider “Is it really worth it?” asks Brian Manley while Michelle Meyers and Justin Haynes work on typing.

Each goes from being the oldest in the school to being the youngest at a school four times as big. Stories are told about freshman initiation and the mean seniors, but most freshmen admit to having fun during thier first year at high school by proving the rumors wrong. By the end of the year, most freshman have found a niche in the school, and each has made many new friends. Freshman Denise Fisher said, “I’ve met a lot of people, mostly seniors, who have helped to make my freshman year unforget- table.’’ This seems to be the general consen- sus of freshman. The first day of school for a freshman usually brings fear and nervous- ness, but by the end of the school year the freshmen find themselves looking forward to the sophomore year. Then they can spread the same old rumors and try to scare the new freshmen, who will undoubtedly go through the same experience as those be- fore them.

This provides an ideal opportunity to make new friends. Freshman Julie Forres- ter said, “I made a lot of new friends. It’s pretty cool to have new people to talk to.” Jason Hartsock. also a freshman, said “I’ve met many upperclassmen this year, and they are friendlier than I thought they might be.” Making new friend helps to expand one’s horizons, and it helps one cope with the stresses of being a freshman in a new school.

Not only are freshmen afraid of things like getting lost, being initiated or being bullied by an upper- classman but they also have fears of having harder studies to keep up with. Freshman Kerry Hammond summed up one major problem that freshmen face by saying. “I was afraid that I might not fit in with everybody else.” Freshman Brandi Wil- lard added. ‘‘My biggest fear was that I wouldn’t be able to make new friends.” An- other type of problems that is common among freshmen is the fear of getting lost. Freshmen are perhaps most intimidated by the workload they anticipate. Freshman Matt Batchelor said, ‘‘1 was afraid that I would not be able to keep up with my home- work and studying.” Although many other freshmen face the same problems, most seem to overcome their fears when they realize the friendly atmosphere at the high school.

With their new-found status of Freshman, most ninth-graders begin to par- ticipate in many weekend activities. Friday night football games are a popular attraction in the fall, and basketball serves a similar function during the winter months. Movie theaters are a year-round attraction, as are the area malls. Amy Lindsay said, “1 enjoy going shopping.” Added Shannon Moran, “I like to go to the show, too.” Freshmen also seem to enjoy the Modern Dance club con- cert, since most freshmen like to see their schoolmates use their talents. The fall and spring plays are similarly popular. While the experiences are new, some things stay the same. In fact, many freshmen said their fa- vorite thing to do on weekends is to just go out with their friends. In any case, almost all freshmen seem to enjoy their weekend ac- tivities.

All those who added a “Touch of Class” to Civic Memorial High School know that excellence is not easy to achieve. However, excel- lence is readily recognized at CM. For instance, honors banquets, MVP awards, and drama awards are just a few of many honors for those who excel. All exist to encourage excellence and to salute those who make the extra ef- fort to add “a touch of class” to their school. At the beginning of the ’87- ’88 school year, the Specta- tor staff set out to record the special “touches of class” that each individual contribut- ed to the school. We hope that, as each individual leaves CM, he goes out striving to add his own “Touch of Class” to the world. “'the CM- Here- Sue the tes ClosM ” Bethalto serving as the ' f 00rdinating I Mr Hill wj Theresa Han 9 a heshrrtan nCy ZCrry' Do“9 ' ? proue orl «nd no P|ay - V, v '•J y 1 r l Jl , ' ,t' Vy ' ' i , . ilf )
