While construction continued inside and outside of the school, studies con- tinued as usual. With drilling noises as background music. Junior Beth Dar- ragh reads while munching on crackers for lunch. Walking towards the library construction, Juniors Lisa Katchka and Laurie Flaherty pass construction workers. During the semester workers, equipment and scaffolds were expect- ed parts of the environment. Under construction: no ordinary Monday! Another Monday morning, sleepily you walk up into the clut- tered Commons and sit in your clique of friends. Everyone talks loudly and obnoxiously about their weekend. This could be like any other Monday, but it is not that ordinary. Glancing upward you see a massive pile of boards and a huge metal monstrosity used for construction work. As your friends slip into an endless conversa- tion, you realize they are completely unaware of the men in the white uniforms. The construction workers sit quietly and chat, ignoring the fact that they are surrounded by hundreds of Olympi- ans. It was not the usual school year. Walking up to your old home- room on the third floor, you discover with amazement that the room has vanished, without a trace. Then you carefully walk down to the resource level and discover that many new rooms had been built during the summer. Things have definitely changed. Surely there must be something that hasn't changed, perhaps the gym. You venture back down- stairs and pass three safety ramps; wasn't that where the sopho- more commons used to be? Strange. You get your courage up and head towards the gym. You pass what used to be the huge empty space between the two commons. Mow a new structure stands spanning to the ceiling. This will be the new library; you are told. You continue your adventure towards the gym. After reaching the destination, you look in dismay only to see the gym floor is gone. Months passed and the construction continued. Maybe you started getting used to the construction workers and the clanging hammers, or maybe you didn't. Senior Julie Byrd said. The noise was distracting, and sometimes the workmen and their equipment were in the way.’’ If you agreed with her then it is no surprise. Many times during a large group session you would hear the sounds of drills and of hammers. Wonder where the P.E. classes had gym, since no one was allowed in the gym? They had to sacrifice a little sweat for a little restful viewing. They watched television down in the Commons. What about the athletic teams; where would they practice with- out a gym? The volleyball team had a tough time of practicing. Mot having a gym floor was certainly a drawback at first. We always had to find another place to practice, captain of the team, Beth Sylvester said. We probably weren’t in as good as condition as last year, but not having the gym pulled us together as a team. They managed okay. After all they went to Semi-State. The cross-country team also went to Semi-State. They had a successful season by finishing with the acclaimed title of best team ever. According to runner, Mike Settle they could have gone all the way to State. We were very inexperienced but we did have a really good chance for State, but Wisch (John Wischmeier) was sick that day. You realize that the year's great sporting achievement was the swim team's State championship. You remember the thrill of hear- ing that four women represented East and came home with the title. Those four were Dale Etnyre, Tiff Forbes. Pam Hayden, and Chelle Richardson. They were the underdogs, but they won the championship. Etnyre summed up her feelings, We knew that we would qualify, but we weren't sure about winning. Forbes noted that they weren't favored, We only had four people, and Anderson had ten. It really felt good to beat everyone. You also remember the hysteria of the school knowing that we were the best in the state. What a way to put East on the map to show it’s what's inside that counts. by Carla Bowen Junior Yun Hui Percifield models a stylish leopard outfit for Punk Rock Day. Homecoming Week changed the fashions of students with a different spirit theme each day. Seniors Dawn Harris and Jill Carter took advantage of the excuse to wear hats on Hat Day. Junior Kim Dobson humored friends by sucking on a pacifier while hugging her bunny friend. Her costume was worn for Character Day of Homecom- ing Week. Student success: proving is believing “Fantastic! was the word that Counselor Harry Miles used to describe a new program this year fittingly named. Student Suc- cess. The program was an original and East was one of the first schools to try this new approach to student relations. Last spring Principal Philip Houston and Superintendent Law- rence Heyerdahl contacted Miles and Mrs. Diane Holdeman and asked if they would be interested in starting up this new program. Both agreed readily, and the training began. A group of 20 people met and trained together for six months. The members consisted of five teachers, five students, five staff members, and five community members. Sessions consisted of members and any other interested persons. After finishing training Mrs. Holdeman and Miles set out to bring this unique program to the students at East. The results were predictably good. Mrs. Holdeman explained why the program was so successful. Others had wanted a change a long time ago, but they weren’t organized. They were afraid to set up anything because they thought it wouldn't do any good, she said. Another vital fact to add to Student success' aptitude was that it was begun last spring. We started working last spring, while others waited until the school year had already begun, Mrs. Holde- man added. We just kept building up while others were losing their momentum. The general atmosphere of Student success was to have every- one feel like they belonged, Miles explained, It really gave the students a chance to have a meaningful realm besides sports and academics. There has been a change in the atmosphere at East, Mrs. Holdeman said. The kids feel more united. Since the juniors and the seniors are working with the sophomores they feel more like a team. Mike Nelson, senior, agreed, I think this program is really bene- ficial because the sophomores get to be friends with the upper classmen, and this helps them feel more at ease. Sophomores agreed it was a beneficial program. It (student success) made a lot of things clear to me that wouldn’t have normally been clear. Instead of just bringing us in and saying Good Luck,' we had someone there to help us, Amy Brougher said. Another sophomore, Mike Buchanan agreed, “You were able to find things about the school and the way it’s run from the people who have already been through it. Activities that student success have done includes everything from postermaking to sophomore orientation. Cluster meetings were scheduled approximately once a week. In these meetings the student counselors discussed with the parents what was going on at East. The cluster meetings were also set up to help the sophomores decide what classes to take. One sophomore, Sam Hau, said, The cluster meetings helped the students understand the various fields and partially plan their schedules for upcoming years. Teachers from the various departments came and told the students about what they had to offer; thus, hopefully making it easier for the sophomores to decide their schedule. Senior student counselor. Jane Kutch, commented. It has helped the sophomores become more prepared for the following year. It also helped them become familiar with the classes they need to take if they are considering college. Planning, one of the main objectives of student success, includ ed everything as a group activity. Mrs. Holdeman explained, Our process of planning takes a lot more time because we think every- one snould have a part in the planning of the school if it is going to affect them. The decision is better if we do it this way, instead of having one person just decide what is to be done. One decision that was made was to have a peer tutoring pro- gram next year. Miles expressed enthusiasm towards this idea, We think that students relate better to students; it's just easier to talk to someone your own age. The program is still on the drawing board, but it should be in practice next fall. by Carla Bowen It’s what's inside that counts Senior Karla Van Zant answers ques- tions before sophomores begin giving ESA speeches.

Students, parents, teachers and administrators met six weeks to discuss changes for the second floor resource area, student study center and library. During Christmas vacation three teachers assisted librarian Don Reed move the entire library to its new home. Some students stroll slowly while Curtis Irvin helps physics teach- er John Kastings move a desk. Before Christmas teachers and students moved furniture on the resource level to meet specifications on the new floor plan for better access to all resources.

It was a year of chang- ing appearances. While students were busily exchanging Christ- mas gifts and teachers were surprising each other with Kris Kringle presents, teachers and students worked together to begin moving furniture in the resource area before Christmas vacation break. Upon return from Christmas the library was at home in its new location and the Commons was joyously reopened for quiet study. The first day back for the new year began with a school assembly. Principal Philip Houston explained the new rules and surprised study hall students with news of an experimental no study hall slip rule. Another innovation was in school detention for stu- dents who abused the quiet study areas. At first students were pessimistic about the new rules, but soon most agreed the changes were for the better. During academic hours the Commons was a quiet study or reading area, but during lunch, it returned to the socializing center of the school. Students liked being able to sit down in the Commons again. This was obvious by the always populated tables and stair area, called the Greek Theatre. Senior John Wischmeier said, It's great being able to sit in the Commons again, how I can sit with my friends and read magazines; or if I can get away with it, I can talk quietly.” With the library adjacent to the Commons, students had an adjustment to make in study routines. The disadvantage of the location is that the main work area is on the second floor and the students have to take the time to get a pass and come downstairs,” said librarian Don Reed. Reed continued. The area is smaller and there is not much chance for growth. There isn’t that much room for students to come in and study, but the same amount of students are coming in to use the materials. Sophomore Lari-Dawn Coon found the library move a refreshing change. It's better downstairs because you can get a book to read and relax in the Commons. Also liking the new library location. Junior Stacy Van Zant said, It’s great now that the library is downstairs, I use it more often. The move of the library also increased the need for a pass system. Any student moving from the resource floor to the main level had to get a pass. Senior Heidi Crouch said. I really don’t like the idea of having to carry around a pass just so I can go down to the library. It seems sort of redundant having to get a pass each time I need source materials. However, with time the teachers and students adjusted to the new rules and the new passes. They knew working together even made changes not everyone liked to be ones that could make the inside of East an extraordinary school, more than just a new look. by Carla Bowen Sandy Coon Right: Teachers Ed Tower, Don Reed, John Kastings and Norris Moore carry a bookshelf down the stairs to its new location by the Commons.

Nothing is even close to knowing that you are number one; you have proven yourself and you truly are the best. The women's swim team set out this year with four clear goals: 1. To go undefeated. 2. To win Conference. 3. To win Sectionals. 4. To win State. They accomplished their goals and then some. According to State qualifier Tiff Forbes there was a definite turning point in the season. “After we beat Jeffersonville at the Sectional meet it made us realize we had a shot for State. Coach Jim Sheridan elaborated on the subject. “Amy Strietel- meier. sophomore, was certainly a pleasant surprise. She hadn’t done real well the night before, but she did place eleventh in the 100 free. Then during Sectionals she came in ninth, which got us a lot of points. The season from the beginning was really something of a spec tacular achievement. After winning all of their dual meets, which proved to be quite easy for the girlfrogs. they set their sights on the important meets. Practice was described as “ very intense by the four who went to State. Juniors Dale Etnyre. Tiff Forbes. Pam Hayden, and Soph- omore Chelle Richardson. Hayden said. “Practices were taken more seriously; there were longer hours, but we knew that we would win even at the beginning of the season. Coach Sheridan explained why practices were harder, “ The level of talent has increased greatly. Before I was coach, practice was based more on yardage. I try to coach them quality and how to swim faster. They knew that they couldn't slide through practice; I always had a stop watch on them ... Another goal they set was to completely up date the swim re- cords board, which they accomplished. All records are now 1982. “ We didn't have a medley team so that already made us have to work harder to win, said Etnyre. When Pam and Tiff did well in the 200 free. I thought “There is no way I'm going to let anyone beat me.' ” Etnyre said. 'I was really nervous. But when Pam and I walked in the first things we saw were the awards stand and we knew we wanted to bring back the State championship to East. Sheridan spoke highly of his team, and said Hayden and Etnyre were also All-American. Both are in the top ten best swimmers in the nation and the entire relay team is one of the best ten. Also, Elnyre was in Sports Ulustrated’s “Faces in the Crowd. “We lived by the motto. “Perfect practice makes perfect.' Next year they will have the same goals and they plan on becoming the first team to have two state titles in a row. As far as those four that went to State Sheridan expressed a deep felt admiration. What can you say about them? Not many would get up and come swimming at five in the morning and then go to school and then come back to swim at three-thirty.” Sheridan summed up his emotions in single sentence that can truly speak for us all, My admiration is really great for them. by Carla Bowen Far left: Senior captain Beth Sylves- ter gives Coach Yvonne Wilhite a hug after defeating Jennings Coun- ty in the HHC tournament.

The wind was icy and the students were huddled in plaid blankets cheering on the victorious football ath- letes. Halftime would soon follow. Backtracking through the punkers” to sweats and jerseys ’ the 1982 Spirit Week consisted of not just students with the Homecoming fever, but the faculty and resources displayed the Go East” slogans. The school was pulsating with ex- citement and anxiety. Although the football competition did sum up the entire week, other sports were active also. The volleyball squad had an important win over Jennings County while women’s gold advanced to state section- als placing fifth out of eight opponents. Racing along was the cross country team which placed third in sectionals, and with the East-North soccer event came a close match with an Olympian defeat. Another sports spectacular was the eighth annual powderpuff game, which some will re- member as another senior victory” when they smudged the juniors 28-0. And keep- ing with tradition, the new Powderpuff King was honorably crowned as Senior Tim Huntington. Moving away from tradition, the Sopho- more Class started a new one by sponsor- ing the first annual picnic. It was funny watching people participate in the game. stated Sophomore Samantha Battin. Such games included tug of war. balloon busts, and potato sack races. After the steaming hotdogs and rippled potato chips, the daz- zling bonfire kept our spirit burning. Creeping quickly back to the night noise of the football contest, half-time presented our new queen as Senior Rhonda Niceley. I remember I was feeling so nervous-, everyone was, exclaimed Ni- celey. My brother, who was my escort, could feel me trembling. He thought I was tugging at his arm.” While the football lights continued to reflect and the band settled into place, the spirit dwindled down finally to its revelation. Afterwards, victory was in the air and the crowd dispersed into the school. The music was stirring and the lights were keeping the tempo with our student body jumping at the Homecoming Dance. Un- like any other dance, there were more people who danced earning more vacant space for onlookers. The DJ kept the beat going with twisting contests and albums included, and the crowd continued to grow. There wasn’t necessarily more people, but more people participated. More enjoyed themselves.” stated Senior Allen Smith, a contest winner. Midnight came and football players were tiring. East once again stood empty for the weekend. Homecoming had its moments and the spirit settled into its place for another year. by Marge Goodwin W inner of the 1982 Homecoming queen Senior Rhonda Niceley giggled with anxiety along with Senior Lori Bryant. y he orange and the ominous line-up of the Olympians await the snap of the ball, victoriously crushing Seymour. Totally Gnique Homecoming 11 by Marge Goodwin The dark, cool theater is filled with whispering sounds of people and the but- tery smell of popcorn. A young couple searches for two isolated seats. The hor- ror movie reaches a tense moment and the girl grabs her date's arm. When the movie ends, the couple laughs about the scary points in the movie. The boy then walks the girl to the doorstep and that’s the end of a perfect date. Some fairy tales always sound this way. but in reality, dating is a little bit differ- ent. Many high school students enjoy healthy dating relationships, but not all students think it should be a major part of their high school days. Paula Federle. ju- nior, commented, Dating in high school depends on if you're planning to go to col- lege or not. Going to college has a lot of opportunities to date, so it’s not very im- portant.” Also, some are very skilled at the dat- ing game. Suave, smooth actions to lure mates for a night on the town takes prac- tice. Dating at this age is important. You have to start sometime. It builds up confi- dence and it helps gain experience. stat- ed Senior Scott Mote. Although dating now seems to be an advantage, it does have its bad points. It is not all fun and games to some. Sophomore Traci Lay expressed her views. Dating has the disadvantage of being tied down. And sometimes jealousy and expecting too much out of someone creates prob- lems.” To help develop the responsibilities of dating and marriage, the family relations class almost” had a wedding in the Rob- bins Auditorium. As a new tradition, the wedding had been pre-planned and set up by the students, with help from Mrs. Karen Nading. Exchanging the fake vows were Seniors Jason Ruble and Linda Elkins, with Reverend Bill Eaton as officia- tor. The hands-on involvement helped them realize the stress and high cost of a wedding. Back to the night-life and dating, it still has its advantages. It develops new friendships and social groups-, still, one thought remains common to each couple. It helps you grow up. responded Senior Junior Moffatt. y he wedding party looks on as Max Moore gives away the bride in the ceremonial procedure of the wedding. £ onfirming the marriage is Reverend William Eaton, minister of Garden City Church of Christ.

Totally Unique Holidays 1! Sally McMillin Imagine yourself walking down the hall, mentally bracing yourself for the upcom- ng test you're about to take. Glancing at the drinking fountain you walk on. but stop suddenly for a double-take. Is that really Frankenstein gulping water at the fountain? You turn around and gasp as a pair of dice approaches. Is this a dream, a nightmare? No. it’s Great Pumpkin Day! The newly-formed Department of Prac- tical and Fine Arts sponsored this activity that provided students a day they could act crazy by dressing up in their favorite costumes, bob for apples, cook their fa vorite pumpkin recipes, and play such games as The Fleadless Horseman. The committee consists of all the small arts departments for the purpose of making the arts more visible in the school. Haunted Hallways, another Halloween event, was a Publications Department function which contributed money to- wards defraying the expense of color in the yearbook. The hallways supplied a journey through such terrors as mummies, witches, vampires, and ghoulish monsters for courageous students. Senior Aubrey Jones, who helped with the hallways, said. It was a fun way to raise money. Even though they probably wouldn't admit it, a lot of people were really scared. The East traditional turkey day al- most passed by without incident, with the exception of a few shattered eggs in the frenzied atmosphere of the Commons. Other hair-raising stories such as shaving cream in lockers and flying water balloons were told to the sophomores to the de- light of the upperclassmen. Sophomores weren't the only turkeys around; turkey- o-grams were special messages sent to friends. Christmas, considered the most special and important holiday of the year, was greeted by rainy skies and above-normal temperatures. Although many students dreamed of a white Christmas, the snow didn’t fall. But that didn't dampen East students’ cheer and good will. Sophomore homerooms collected Christmas baskets for a family in Columbus. The homerooms were Baker. Kessler. Mood. Shook. Stoner and Robertson. These homerooms com- bined their efforts and collected money and cans of food, with Mood's homeroom collecting the most money and Stoner’s collecting the most cans of food. Junior Lorie Pfeiffer, a sophomore counselor, commented. It made us feel good to help people who are less fortunate than we are. The family was real happy to get it.” Washington Street. City Hall, and pri- vate homes weren’t the only places adorned for the holidays. The resources tried to out-decorate each other with tin- sel. pictures of St. Nicholas amd Christ- mas ornaments. The hallways at East were filled with the joyous sounds of good tidings from the choir. Melodious voices sang tradi- tional Christmas songs, lending the school a festive air. The concert choir also per- formed a Christmas concert, including parts of the Messiah, a masterpiece writ- ten by Handel. Spice, a choir ensemble, sang on December 15 at the First Presbyte- rian Church for the church's Women’s Circle. Given as a gift to the community, the band gave a formal and traditional con- cert. Announced at this event was the in- vitation the band received to be in the Indianapolis 500 parade in May. The Drama Department also joined-in on the activities for Christmas. After au- ditions six students were chosen to pre- sent a Christmas play to the elementary children of Richards. Fodrea and Smith schools. Even teachers can have fun at Christ- mastime; the faculty Christmas dinner was an evening filled with the music of the Chordsmen. and the dinner was catered by Heritage House. Mr. Phil Miller and Mr. Vic Fields acted as auctioneers for white elephant” items everyone brought. About 80 persons attended, and $100 was raised and donated to the Cheer Fund.

Qstivities Color Spring Christmas as we know it is not like that of other countries. Dumisani Zulu, a Senior who is an AFS student from Africa, spent his Christmas with the Wayne Jaquess family he’s now living with. The main dif- ference between my country's Christmas and Christmas here, is the gift-giving part. Dumisani explained that gifts were just given to children, instead of giving presents to friends and parents. Each Christmas all the nationals wear their own dress and they compete in tribal dances. Winners of the tribal dance are an- nounced, and sometimes cars or money are presented to the winners. Dumisani commented that the thing he missed most about Christmas was the warm weath- er. The Christmas dance, at the Senior Citizens Center, provided a softly-lit set- ting for students to enjoy dancing in. The dance was really fun. and the orchestra was good; the music was easy to dance to.” said Junior Kathy Oliverio. About two hundred people attended the ESA spon- sored event. Soon after the winter holidays one could find themselves recovering for only a short time before spring festivities be- gin. Saint Valentine's Day marked the day when love and friendship lingered throughout East. To some, Valentine’s Day has special meaning. Junior Tracy John- son commented, I feel Valentine's Day is a day when two people show their affec- tion for each other. During homeroom more than 500 Olym- pians received Valentine, cookies made by Home Ec students. More than 70 flowers and Val-o-grams were sent to that spe- cial someone. To make the scene even more romantic, DECA sponsored a Valen- tine’s Dance. No sooner than Cupid swept you off your feet, St. Patrick was wrapping you around his finger. The day is March 17 and time to get out the green. While sitting in the commons one could see many vari- ations and ornaments for Saint Patrick’s Day. Colors ranged from kelly green to jelly bean green. There were people with hats, buttons, and even leprechaun pins. To help celebrate the occasion the sophomore homeroom of Mrs. Joyce Robertson cut out shamrocks, and were then placed on doors at the Midway Convalescent Cen- ter. Craig Barkhimer, sophomore, stated. It gives us something to do that’s benefi- cial to the community. Just a hop, skip and a jump away from St. Patrick’s Day is Easter, the holiday that really recognizes spring. Many East students participated in Easter activities. Such things included plays, sunrise ser- vices, and singing in the church choir. Ju- nior Jenny Lane stated, On Easter morn- ing our church has a sunrise service, a breakfast, and regular church services. Lane went on to add, I will also be singing in the church choir. Even as one will grow older, many of the traditions remain the same. One might still find themself hunting Easter eggs ear- ly Easter morning, or munching down on all the candy received in the Easter basket used so many times before. Sophomore James Brewer replied, I figured out who the Easter bunny was a long time ago, but the candy still tastes pretty good.” Although holidays pass, the memories linger on of the fun on Halloween, Easter eggs found, flowers received on Valen- tine’s Day, or even the funny pair of socks under the Christmas tree. by Karen Eyler. Sally McMillin Holidays Is More Than One Face To the typical person, trying to put up with hats and shades, punk rockers, and cartoon characters could only be a chal- lenge. Month after month, certain days were set aside to show off one’s special person- ality. ’’With spirit days, one can be more imaginative, stated Junior Kim Stephens. Although somewhat redundant. Sweats Day was the most participated. The stu- dents at East seem to like a relaxed or bum” look better than that of a dressy style. It was the most comfortable spirit day, I have to admit, expressed Junior Emily Briner. Sophomore Charles Cain commented, I liked bum day the best because I’m a bum. Such zany costumes for Cartoon Day included Superman. Dracula, bunny rabbits, and gorillas. One of the most liked spirit days was Punk Rock Day. On this special day, one would often see people with hair of various colors and wearing a far-out style of clothes. Students seemed excited with their chains and dog collars. Punk Day was really an omen for the fu- ture since fads are moving into the Punk era, explained Junior Yun Hui Percifield. To some, spirit days especially Punk Rock Day would let one’s mind go as far as possible. I thought Punk Rock Day was interesting; it showed the true side of people,” replied Junior Jill Schoettelkotte. It’s true the fun of spirit days play a large part of our school activities but what about spirit itself? According to Senior Beth Bottorff we have more spirit than we used to have, but we still haven’t yet reached the ultimate. Some feel spirit days help create more enthusiasm for the students. Sophomore Amy Stone commented, I liked the Bum Out Day and Toga Day the best, they were fun and they helped get everyone psyched-up for the games. But no matter who likes a specific day. Orange and Brown Day is still a popular one with East students. Sometimes a different atmosphere is needed, according to Jill Schoettelkotte, Spirit days help to break up the mono- tony of the day. Spirit days play a large part on our lives at East, but only a small part of everyday activities. by Karen Eyler ight out of the jungle Senior Chris York poses as a gorilla for Character Day costume competition. |_| elping to arouse spirit throughout East, the girls’ gymnastic team sold the e hats which suddenly became the fad of the day.

Junior Todd Hall struts a New Wave style. ndividuality Modeled in Style Sitting in the Commons during the sixth period lunch mod, one would become aware of the variations of East, and not just the reconstruction. For instance, the bodies occupying space hold a total count of four pairs of oxfords, four pairs of sneakers, seven pairs of penny loafers and five pairs of boats. Others present a choice of suede or ballet flats. All of this adds up to a world of shoe fashion, but what's the importance? As a totally keen style, the fads and fashions of this year add a new image to East. Instead of the tradition of blue jeans and T-shirts, the students are moving into an area that’s totally tubular. Although the jeans and T’s still exist, punk is com- ing onto more figures, displaying thin ties and sometimes one would spot the minis from the sixties. Like, this new fad doesn’t stop at the wardrobe, though. Punk haircuts match up to the new lingo, Valley Girl. One could sit down and hear the few choice words of grody, joanie, and even aqua velva geek. Along with this new expression, one would see the red, orange, or purple ban- danas strapped anywhere on a person’s body, running with a flipped-up collar. As for a change of roles, more girls seem at- tracted to the ties so much that a few wear them themselves. Masculine cloth- ing is seen on more than just the preppy males. But some still agree with the femi- nine approach. Dresses still make it dressy,” explains Junior Stacy Vanzant. Yes, prep is still in.” The argyle sweat- ers and button-down collars still support the alligators. As for footwear, the ox- fords are still clomping around, with or without pennies (or with dimes!) Although some prefer the bright, flourescent pink, plaid for preps lingers through the halls. Personality has much to do with begin- ning or playing out a fad. For instance, some people would feel insecure wearing the latest. Others are adventurous in clashing colors, eye makeup, and jewelry.

Fads Fashions oontime Kicks and Casualties The clock finally reaches 10:40 a.m.; the crowded hallways empty into the Com- mons as people head for their thing to do during lunch. The roaring of voices begins to cease as the mumble of only a few stu- dents take over. The 10:45 lunch mod is the quietest of the three,” stated Sopho- more Tammy Durand. Sometimes it’s too quiet!” As some students dash off to be first in line for the cafeteria food, others go wild- ly toward the student parking lot trying to decide where to eat. Running to your car is sometimes essential in fear of being bombarded by a mass of water balloons. Other sights are car cramming, and races to McDonalds. Trying to get the same parking place on the return trip is often tried, but usually impossible. The 11:30 a.m. mod usually brings out the sunbathers and once again the water bal- loons. Seeing wet clothes and hair be- comes only a casualty as the noon festivi- ties increase. We hit the girls because we like the satisfaction of seeing them get mad,” commented Junior Ritchie Cain. With the soaking of girls came the writing of passes for home and finally the outlaw of water balloons. I was glad when the guys weren’t allowed to throw water bal- loons anymore, said Sophomore Trina Whipker, It was finally safe to sit out- side.” Occassionally a small crowd would gather around an unofficial football game, or sometimes one could see the whizzing of a frisbee fly into the hands of a partici- pant.

After all of this mistreatment, the fountains are fighting back. The one by Room AQ9 sprays water on your pants while the one on the second floor puts your eyes out. Some even refuse to function any longer. What does this water fountain war have to do with East? Nothing! It is just an ex- ample of how different an interior person- ality can be. East has the white-collar, aca- demic side, and at the same time has the mischievous, daring, lighter half. No, some are not afraid to laugh out loud in the Commons while throwing the empty Coke can from the top of the stairs. Sure, a frisbee was tossed across the room. Don't forget, either, the choice words used against the construction in the library area. Olympians had some unusual ways to entertain themselves. If someone collect- ed the pennies that were hurled across the cafeteria, they could buy the new Chevy which was parked sideways next to the gym. Also, someone should write a book with all the excuses used when one misses a bus. Some turn out to be legiti- mate. Sophomore Dwight Denney told one of his stories, One time my mother wouldn’t wash my pants. I ended up walk- ing to school!” As a form of punishment to those who continue to act their crazy and absurd side, detention is given. Instead of an hour after school studying, some are believed to sleep in the boring place” or doodle on the desk.” Whatever the crime, detention seems to be the favorite” of all disciplin- ary actions.

After School As the average academic hours roll on, the students in the classrooms, Commons, and even the restrooms tend to strain their eyes to the clocks. The seldom-cor- rect time keeper finally hits 3:10 p.m. and the school is in an uproar. To some, 3:10 p.m. means home, food, sleep, or relief, but to others it’s just the beginning to a hard afternoon of toil. The extra-curricu- lar activities call for extra meetings, prac- tices and rehearsals. Keeping with tradition, during the par- ticular seasons, the football field, gym, and pool are roaming with dedicated ath- letes who strive to increase speed or techniques. Preparing for their spirited events are the cheerleaders who kept the crowds on their toes. Moving to the inside, the hallways were twirling with the flag and rifle corps, and jumping with the drill team. They were always working for their band show or in the parade for the Indianapolis 500. On the first floor in the room nick- named the Pub, other activities were oc- curring. Papers on the tables scattered chaotically. People pulling their hair out screaming to get a photo or a perfect cap- tion. Human torture existed throughout the year, not as punishment, but to pre- sent our school with publications. The Oracle and Altis staffs struggled through after school sessions to complete, con- struct, and conquer the ills of the newspa- per and yearbook. As new organizations to our school this year, students became involved with the chess and science clubs. Being a group for intelligent thinking and decision making, careful planning and organization was needed. In the science club, problems still existed. One of our main problems was attendance. Few people know that we ex- isted since we began at the end of the year,” explained Sophomore Jeff Eichen. Frustrations were present, but the science club did accomplish their plans.

In a different field, (even language) are the Spanish and German clubs. Active this year more than ever, the Spanish club be- gan the year by fundraising. Selling carna- tions for Easter and chocolate candy were a good start for the activities. Money was used for the float in the Columbus Day parade and a special scholarship fund for a trip to Mexico or even college. East was always busy. If the baseball team wasn’t aerobic dancing in the gym, some of the faculty members were run- ning laps after school. The drama club practiced in the auditorium while the rifle corps began their twirling. What some consider school to be textbooks and lunch mods, these involved students looked at their school as a form of home. by Marge Goodwin After School anticipation Develops in 'Oklahoma As the lights were slowly dimmed in the Robbins Auditorium, the chattering of the audience came to a sudden silence. The opening scene of Oklahoma was finally underway. The success of this performance came from hours of hard work and stamina from cast members. I think the hardest part of the entire play was working until II p.m., but the long practices seemed to pay off after hearing the audience’s reaction,” said Mike Stadtmiller. There was a great deal to accomplish during those long practice sessions. Troy Taber said the hardest part to accomplish was the French accent and walk of his character. The cast of the play couldn’t have got the work they had to accomplish without the help of East drama director Ray LeB- lancj his assistant Ben Jaquess-, Ms. Mary Clark, Music Director and the dance chor- eographers Senior Dawn Harris and Mrs. Cindy McMillan. With the guidance and help of the directors the cast was able to contribute to a legendary production. The musical seemed to capture the at- tention of the audience and hold it. I think that the cast did a spectacular perfor- mance,” commented Junior Jackie Moore. I thought the performance was very good. I believe that the cast did an excel- lent job of preparing for the opening night,” explained Senior Karla VanZant. She added, My favorite part of the musi- cal was the f inale. When they all came out singing it seemed to grab the audience’s attention.” The musical can be looked at as more than a form of entertainment and hard work. I think the most interesting part of doing the musical was the learning exper- ience. I had never been in a major produc- tion before,” commented Taber. While Taber looked at the play as a learning ex- perience, others looked at it as a way to meet new people. The most interesting part of doing the play was meeting new people and their characters. My favorite being Dingo, said Samantha Battin. Spectator Tanya Rathsman felt the best part of the play was the cast participation. The cast did a great job of participating. Each did the best job they could do to contribute to a grand performance.” The momentum built up when the entire cast became involved. Although total participation was the key to this production, others felt that a select group of characters stood away from the crowd. I felt that each member did a good job and did their part. I also believe that Beth Bottorff and Sharon Carr did an excellent job of portraying their characters,” expressed VanZant. From the designers of the costumes to the writers of the play, each person has the quality for this success. All in ail the reason for the smash hit production Okla- homa can only be the participation of the cast members,” summarized Senior Janet Lutes. by Marge Goodwin Oklahoma y he disgusted Aunt Eller, played by Sen- ior Sharon Carr, shows her disapproval of Will Parker.

In fact, our school, like most fortu- nate schools, has a department for this area. The Drama Club deals with this spe- cial department. Under the lights and cameras there is action with the drama group at East. Not only did they perform one major musical in the spring and several reader’s plays, but also they took time out to enchant the children with Christmas performances for area elementary schools. The spring season not only brings the annual musical but a series of one-act plays and a reader’s theater. Senior Mary Scifres, director of the reader’s theater, has her own feelings toward this dramatic season. The only experience I have had was as student director of ’Hello Dolly.’ Being director of the reader’s theater is difficult. It’s hard working with peers.’’ As the performances continued the au- diences then began to play an important part for the actors and actresses, and not just those of the school plays. A Columbus audience had the opportunity to view and absorb the reknown entertainers of Up With People.” As a musical group of 110 men and women, Up With People per- formed more than music they added cul- ture. What I liked most was the variety of the music from other countries. I found out other cultural lives, expressed Junior Lisa Fouts. Unlike any common traveling organiza- tion, Up With People wasn’t just a one- night deal. They became involved with our community and some on a personal level with the host families in which they stayed. After the performances, interviews, and all of the excitement that radiated off Up With People,” they had to move on. The buses were loaded early while the tears were shed.

From playing chess to synchroniz- ing music, the computer has become al- most everyone’s best friend. Computers are not just the machines of the future anymore, they are the ma- chines of today. With the dawn of the computer age in the 1950’s, computers have gained status with the average American family. More than four million Americans now own personal computers, and the number is increasing every year. Students at East are just a small sam- pling of the widespread popularity of home computers. Out of 21 homerooms, 50 students have home computers. The computer can predict weather, process checks, scrutinize tax returns, and can even guide missies. But for stu- dents, these uses are far from mind. In- stead, using computers for printing Eng- lish assignments, math homework, and just playing video games are popular uses for home computers. Larry Brackney, sophomore, doesn’t use his computer just for homework; he writes computer programs to sell to maga- zines. Brackney has had his TRS 80 com- puter for three years, and he uses his computer on an average of 12 to 24 hours a week. Brackney is considering a career in a computer field dealing with artificial in- telligence. Another student who is actively in- volved with computers is Senior Paul Sni- vely. Snively also has a TRS 80, one of the more popular models. Snively uses his computer for writing English papers, studying program languages, and develop- ing new programs and circuits. Snively be- lieves that in a few years, the home com- puter will be as common in the home as the television is now. The fields Snively thinks that the computer will be predomi- nate in are teaching, especially English and foreign languages-, engineering, man- aging and theorizing. ’The corporate level will rely heavily on computers for things such as bookkeeping, finances, and other time-consuming jobs,” Snively comment- ed. Lorie Pfeiffer, junior, also has a home computer that assists her in her home- work. Pfeiffer said, ”1 think that comput- ers will be in every home in the near fu- ture, but I don't think computers will take over teachers' jobs because students need personal attention.” The expansion of the home computer seems to be related to the success of vid- eo games and the introduction of the IBM personal computer. Even though comput- ers are not present in every home today, someday turning on the home computer will be as natural as turning on the televi- sion. by Sally McMillin y aking advantage of the computer, math teacher David Benak works on transfer- ring a program. eady to start programming, sophomore Andy Cummings spends time working in the computer room.

While some are sleeping away the early hours others are rushing to be on time for church. Sunday mornings remind me of a usual school day with trying to get ready and being on time,” commented Junior Kris Campbell. Sometimes I make everyone else late.” Being religious is something not every- one shows. It’s like having two different personalities,” stated Dina Hanson, soph- omore. To some religion is very important and helps in making everyday decisions. Junior Randy Patton replies Religion helps me in choosing my value’s, it helps me to decide what is right from wrong.” Junior Tracy Johnson comments, ”1 find religion important to me mostly because of the way I was brought up.” Some students feel that this generation is moving away rather than toward reli- gion. Some reasons include drugs, alcohol, peer pressure, and a change in everyday values. I feel that teenagers don’t really care as much because their parents feel the same way,” claimed Sophomore Charles Cain. Although going to church on Sunday is a big part of it, there is much more time involved for some. To Junior Tammy Goodall, going to youth group and getting involved is very important. My youth group is really pret- ty active; we have gone to Kings Island, had pizza parties, and held youth rallies,” she said. ”1 feel religion is important, but it de- pends on the person involved,” comment- ed Junior Jeannie Bordon. She further stated that you should take the step to- ward religion at one’s own pace without force from anyone. To teenagers the need for answers con- cerning religion is vital. To help curve these questions is a growing group called Campus Life. Campus Life involves high school students getting together, talking about religion and their own feelings. We talk about religion,” Sophomore Tracy Lay replied, but we also talk about love, dat- ing. and drugs ” Although discussion is part of it. planned activities also fit into the sched- ule. Such things include a Florida trip this past spring break, and all-night lock-in. sports and games. The game I like best is chubbie bunnies,” commented Junior Greg Eaton. Whoever can put the most marshmallows in their mouth and can say chubbie bunnies is the winner.” The credit for the positive feelings about Campus Life are pushed toward the direction of Tom Rust. Tom acts like a teenager,” said Sophomore Lari Dawn Coon. He's always there when you need to talk.” Campus Life has a membership of about 45 to 50 people. They meet every Thurs- day at a Campus Life member house. We eat and just have fun,” stated Sophomore Dawn Bell. Also Campus Life can make a big difference in a positive life,” she fur- ther stated. by Karen Eyler £ tuffing your face at Campus Life group is a typical setting as seen here with Senior Doug Fleming and Sophomore Isabella Duncan.

Up and Away The Prom is over and everyone is going home, but not for long. The festivities of the 34th annual After-Prom are about to begin. The line to the After-Prom was let in a half an hour earlier this year because of the rain. The Guys” were this year's band for the After-Prom with a special appearance from Jon Pyles, the magician from Greensburg. This year’s theme was ”Up, Up and Away” using colorful decora- tions of balloons. The whole idea behind the After-Prom is to provide a program which not only gets people together after the prom, but also it is free for the students. The stu- dents play a wide variety of games to win coupons which later can be redeemed for one of the 2,500 prizes valued over $8,000. Among these prizes is the After-Prom T- shirt with the imprinted theme and pic- ture. Four o’clock rolled past and the music softened while the red-eyes waited for something else exciting to happen. The pizza sat on the counter while in the cor- ner a couple quietly chats. The decora- tions one by one were removed — some were even impossible to fit in cars. The sun rose an early Saturday morning while students drove home — to sleep. by Marge Goodwin After-prom Best Is Yet to Come Rows and rows of chairs waited patient- ly in the gymnasium at eight on one Sun- day night. The stands still were filling and the noise level grew. The band just played the opening piece. Finally the brown robes filed in two by two. The seniors began the commencement. After the opening prayer, salutatorian Beth Sylvester began her speech while the audience waited. Using such lines as ... we must be taught to accept the responsi- bility of our individuality and layed back expressions like, certainly no professor is going to assign us to study hall and hold our hand while we do our homework, Beth’s speech captured people's ears. Mary Scifres, as valedictorian, stressed her production reminding the listeners about high school days, and how nothing good can stay.” She ended upon the note of the best is yet to come.” Before all of this seriousness, thoughts traveled through each graduate’s mind. Careers, homes, and lifetimes were still on blueprints. As girls hugged each other for old times sake and guys whispered gossip, fear began to develop. Commencement is a serious time, but it is also one to look forward to. Time flew by and President Bill Lewis conducted the changing of the tassels. Yells, hat, and a frisbee throwing led to a roll of toilet paper to be tossed into the air. Although Principal Philip Houston was not pleased with the conduct, the Senior Class of '83 glowed with excitement. While the parking lot scrambled itself for an exit, the students began to say their good-byes. Although they plan to keep in touch, they understand it will never be quite the same.” Walking to the car while they slowly creep out, a humming of Pomp and Circumstance could be heard in the cool dark. by Marge Goodwin Graduation y he GO EAST” sign in the background has a double meaning for the seniors.

The drill team started practices in June and in the end they received several superior credits at band contests. Junior Mary McClure concentrates on watching the conductor for the concert hand movements in order for her to play the correct rhythm in the piece of music they are playing. Memories will always be with the drill team of the cold nights they had to perform. Every member huddled together to try and keep warm. Blankets, jackets, and sweats were used to try and keep warm. On the even days of the cycle the last two mods of the day the band hod to work hard on trying to get the music presentable for a contest or a concert. John Anderson will be playing in Wisconsin. Getting up at the crack of dawn, getting into uniform, and getting to school after hours on time was what the band had to do in order to make it in time for the Indy 500 parade. 58 Performance Performance Memories in Tunes n rhe summer sun, rhis orgonizo- rion consisting of 100 plus stu- denrs pressed, practiced and perspired for perfection.

The high dropout rare wos attributed to rhe educational envi- ronment, many people believed rhe rules were too lax; it was too eosy to fail, Senior Dill Lews star- ed Along with rhe schedule change, rhe resource floor was rearranged rhis year It has mode a great deol of difference in rhe atmosphere of rhe school, Mr Houston commented About 100 students were sur- veyed about the new system The opinion of rhe students surveyed wos split, almost exactly, at 50 per cent who approved of rhe new system ond 50 percent who did nor. by Trocy McQueen Mr. Max Moore, assistant principal, takes a break from working with student scheduling. Behind him is the board he rearranges while solving schedule problems. Progress A class act — that’s the only way to describe the people at East. Olympian individuality and op- timism make each of us an important part of a unique crowd. Be it cheering for our state champions or a great performance on stage or working long hours to help a friend, the sophomores, juniors and seniors at East know what it takes inside to be first class Olympians. 88 A class act V Sophs sweep spirit This year’s sophomores have had a little extra help with the new adjustment. There were senior and junior counselors and special sessions to help them with the change from traditional schedule to modu- lar schedule. The goal of many sophomores was to get school spirit back into the school. Sopho- more Class president Troy Taber said, I wanted to make us feel like the Class of '85, a class at East High School. I did not want us to be a class from Central, a class from Southside, a class from Northside.” They demonstrated their enthusiasm de- feating the juniors and even the seniors when it came to class competition for the spirit trophy presented to the Sophomore Class on Awards Day. One of the few things the 421 sopho- mores disliked was the dreaded blue slips forced to always have in their possession the first nine weeks. On the other end of the scale, they made the transition from tradi- tional to modular schedule and enjoyed the freedom from the closed campus atmo- sphere of the junior high school. by Jocelyn Taber Robert Abraham Mandy Acton Anessa Adair Melissa Adams Alicia Agostinelli Kim Aliee Gary Allen Kassie Allman Jackie Anderson Lowen Anderson Owen Anderson Rhonda Andrews Holly Arnold John Ashby Jeff Axsom Bridget Ayers Tamala Baldwin Tracy Baldwin Lisa Banks Melissa Bargar Elizabeth Barker Marcia Barker Craig Barkhimer Amy Barksdale Christi Barning Tina Bateman Samantha Battin Debra Beavers Roger Behrman Dawn Bell Stacy Bennett Carla Bibie Scott Bland David Boston Roger Boyer Larry Brackney David Bratten Leesa Bray Rodney Bray James Brewer Sophomores Phil Brewer Geneva Bridgewater Todd Briner Barry Broering Amy Brougher Dale Brown Greg Brown Lisa Brown Lisa Brown Chris Bryant Mike Buchanan Dana Buck Laurie Buck Mark Buckley Terry Burris Mark Burton Tracy Butler Paul Buzzard Charles Cain Stephanie Camp Bridgett Cardenas Curt Carothers Karen Cash Kim Chill Paul Clampitt Michael Clancy Michele Clegg Todd Collier Cindy Condon Cheryl Cone Tina Conway Kim Cookson Lisa Cooley Rhonda Coomer Lari-Dawn Coon Candi Coryea Patrick Cox Kim Crouch Joni Crouse ESA becomes ESL Sophomore, Russell Pritchett, re- sentatives to represent his class votes in homeroom for ESL repre- next fall when school starts. For ail those returning sophomores and juniors the familiar letters ESA will no long- er have any meaning. Instead, the new stu- dent government will be called the East Student Leadership Council or ESL. The new constitution which was drawn up by Mr. Jim Nay. Mrs. Anne Hoffman and a committee of six students was approved by the ESA in late April. The major changes in the constitution were a cut down in mem- bers and a structural change. The members were cut down from nine representatives per class to four representatives per class. The new structure eliminates all offices and has a rotating presidency to be shared by the representatives every nine weeks. Junior and senior officers were elected in May so they could attend a leadership semi- nar at I.CJ. during the summer.

They were not new to East, and yet were not ready to leave either. The juniors had become accustomed to the way things operated around East, such as the classroom location and the schedules. When they returned in the fall, everything was changed. New rooms had been added where empty hallways used to be, the schedules had made a change to nine, 40- minute mods, compared to last year’s twen- ty six 10-minute mods. To top it all off, juniors learned that we would be required to be at school 15 minutes earlier. Looking at the changes that took place this year, and those that will occur during our senior year, especially with the addition of the freshman, juniors easily realize we really are caught in the middle and must rise above it all. by Collin Sullivan Terri Abel Cindy Able Scott Adams Tonya Allen Jennifer Amburgey Kelley Anderson Lora Anderson Dan Arbuckle Mary Arnholt Brian Axsom Mike Baker Todd Barkes Erik Barnett Karen Bassett Terence Bates Sonja Bathory Christopher Bauman Sam Belding Machelle Bennett Allie Bierlein Greg Black Bob Blair Troy Blair Dale Blocher John Bloomingstock Rhonda Boggs Kip Bonnell Roxi Bonnell Jean Borden Eric Bottorff Marilyn Bowman Mel Bowman Robert Bowman Pamela Brand Vernon Braxton Emily Briner Jay Brooks Mark Brooks Patrick Brown Juniors Wietlisbach goes to Philippines Chris Wietlisbach was a junior this year at East, but graduated with the Senior Class of 1983. Completing four years of high school in only three is not an easy feat. To do this she had to take all of her junior and senior required courses during her eleventh grade year. Not only did that mean an extra heavy load of mostly required subjects, she did not have the opportunity to take elec- tives. Wietlisbach decided to graduate early after she learned about the foreign ex- change program through a representative of Rotary Club International. After being ac- cepted into the program, she selected a country to be her new home. One of the main reasons why Wietlisbach decided to graduate early was that she would still be eligible for scholarships which require a student to finish high school within four years. It was necessary for Wietlisbach to attain permission to graduate early. After writing the governor of Indiana, she was informed that the law had recently changed and now it was the superintendent’s approval that was necessary. Wietlisbach wrote to Dr. Heyerdahl who did waive the seven-semes- ter attendance requirement. However, to complete the 37 credits needed for Bartholomew County gradu- ation, Chris had to take eight classes this semester: Junior English, (J.S. History, Sen- ior English, Government, economics, ad- vanced algebra, chemistry and physiology. Wietlisbach said, “I want to try to keep my grades up; but with eight classes and a job after school, it is really hard. Chris kept her grades up. She graduates sixth in her class. “For me the extra work was worth being able to graduate early, said Chris. I won’t deny though that this past semester has been the hardest and most hectic 18 weeks of my life. Discussing her shortened years at East she said, I feel I have missed out on my senior year, the prestige of being a senior and graduating with my class. These are the people that I have gone to school with for the past 11 years of my life and now I feel that I am leaving them. While she was taking her required senior courses, she admits to having doubts as to whether or not the seniors would really ac- cept her. I was really glad when they didn’t treat me any differently. During her visit in the Philippines for 11 months, she will stay with three different families. I think after a year away from home, it will force me to become more inde- pendent. After her return to the states, Wietlis- bach plans to attend either Washington Uni- versity or the University of St. Louis to be- come a sports medicine specialist. by Collin Sullivan Shelly Brown Beth Burns Scott Burton David Bushong Duane Butler Teresa Butler Connie Byrd Ritchie Cain Kris Campbell Kevin Carothers Julie Carteaux Sheena Carter Dawn Chandler Mark Childers Wendy Childs Angie Clark Brent Clayburn Jennifer Coffey Flo Collins Teresa Collins Greg Colwell Jennifer Consley Bobby Cook Dan Cook Caught in the Middle 103 Carol Coons Kathi Corbin Betsy Corya Kim Cox Ron Crigler Annette Cripe Tami Crouch In the Publications Department, Tonya Murphy cracks up while get- ting a Sputtering Torch Award from the Oracle staff.

Committee selects Olympians This year at East brought a new custom to our school. The administration though it a good idea to start nominating and award- ing special students a title of Outstanding Olympian. During the year they awarded three juniors the prestigious title. They were Donnie Hudson, Blair Laing, and Ben Jaquess. Each of the three students had his own personal outstanding qualities. Donnie Hudson does volunteer work for the Red Cross, making up a part of the staff on the bloodmobile. He also helps with the disaster team and is on the board of drictors for the Red Cross organization. Donnie also spends a lot of his time in the East Televi- sion Studio, and even goes on location to videotape sporting events. Blair Laing was chosen mainly for his community involvement in the young men’s organizations called DeMolay. Blair was awarded the highest honor possible by being named Master Counselor . He had one the most as far as leadership and re- sponsibly for the betterment of his chap- ter. Concentrating on his math homework, Junior Blair Laing studies in the Re- source Center. While seated in the Ca- reers Resource area, Junior Ben Ja- quess meets with representatives and students from the AFS exchange pro- gram. In the cast of “Oklahoma, with Sharon Carr, Kent Burkman, andJanet Lutes, is senior Outstanding Olympian recipient, Janice Barr. Assisting in first aid procedures to Senior Grant Mollenkamp, is Red Cross volunteer and Outstanding Olympian, Junior Donnie Hudson. Ben Jaquess was the last junior to be anmed Outstanding Olympian for the year. Ben was president of the German Club, active on the speech team and in dra- ma. Jaquess is a deacon in the Grammer Presbyterian Church, where he is also the president of their youth group. by Collin Sullivan 112 Outstanding Olympians Student success honors Seniors Williams, Barr, Cookson, Juniors Laing, Jaquess, Hudson Seniors David Williams and Karen Cook- son and Janice Barr were two seniors to receive recognition this year with the Out- standing Olympian Award. Cookson re- ceived the award for both community ser- vices and work at East. David was honored for his various art accomplishments at East and in the community. Most widely mentioned on nominations submitted for Williams was his contribution of artwork to the 1981 1982 ALTIS. As edi- tor Williams designed the cover, endsheets, divisional and several drawings which ac- companied copy. He worked with other school publications, serving as graphics editor and art editor of the ORACLE and MORE Magazine. During the summer he spent five weeks at Parsons School of Design in New York. He spoke positively about his experience stating, “It was neat working in an environ- ment where the students were totally con- cerned with art. Williams' community involvement is re- flected through his participation in the year- ly Fair on the Square, membership to the Columbus Photo Club, his donations to the Uncommon Cause and his art for area orga- nizations. David plans to attend Parsons School of Design, Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C. or the Maryland Institute of Art in Baltimore. Cookson's work was connected with the Red Cross. She works in the Bloodmobile as it travels throughout the community and collects blood from donors. Karen also helped to organize the Bloodmobile’s stop at East High School on Oct. 19. In addition to her Bloodmobile work, Cookson is on the Red Cross Board. Cookson is on the disaster team and has been several places with them. She has been to three or four fires including a trip to Northside Junior High on the day that the viewing window in the pool broke. On this day two students had to be taken to the hospital; the rest of the students and the faculty had to be evacuated. Volunteers had to help with the clean-up process. Ranked ninth in her graduating class, Barr was named the third senior Outstand- ing Olympian. Active in the choir three years, she was vice president of Concert Choir her senior year. A cast member in “Oklahoma, Barr also participated on the swim team three years. She teaches Sun- day school and directs the junior high choir at the Columbus Christian Church. Barr works 20 hours at the county library and will attend Great Lakes Bible College in the fall. by Collin Sullivan SOPHOMORE HOMEROOM COUNSELORS: Row one: Steve Hensley, Roberta Proffitt, Pat Kiel, Greg Martin, Terry Smi- ley, Allen Smith Jay Maxwell, Bill Lewis, Sandy Coon, Rhonda Jines, Dawn Overfelt, Shelley Kendall, Mary Scifres.

Friendships rate as most important mm emories, events and important hap- ly 1 penings have become a part of each student's life at East. A few of the most common memorable moments expressed on a senior survey were being with friends, adjusting to the new mod scheduling, and the many teachers throughout their three years at East. Senior Michelle Boyd replied, Til remember most the teachers who stood by my side and helped me along the way.” Although friends and teachers were pop- ular, the athletics and the fine art’s program also took credit for students' memories. Senior Rob Proffitt commented, “The athletic teams that I was on in football and track will long be remembered.” The most expressed memory was one of the friends met during high school, most seniors writing, “friends provided compan ionship and togetherness for VIP memo ries. by Mike Martoccia TONIA D.

The day of the local pageant was exciting and tiring, but the work paid off when I heard my name announced as the 1983 Columbus Junior Miss. When I won Columbus Junior Miss, I knew I would advance to the state pageant, but I didn’t know what to expect. Would the other girls be stuck up and out to win or would they be there to have fun? Fortunately they were there to have fun. I arrived in Frankfort, the location for Indiana's Junior Miss every year, on February 6 and began a week of hard work, excitement, and many rewards. The people of Frankfort treated all of us like roy- alty and made us feel right at home. On Monday we traveled to Indianapolis to visit the Governor, the Senate, and the House. What a great day! But on Tuesday, the work began. From Tuesday to Saturday. we spent the whole day learning and rehears- ing dance routines and our talent numbers. We had preliminary nights on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Friday night I won the preliminary Scholastic Award which was quite an achievement since I was in competi- tion with 39 of the most outstanding girls in the state. Saturday night was the final night and I was very excited when I was named one of twelve finalists. The twelve of us performed all of our routines and talents again that night. Then the winners were announced. Al though I was not one of the top five, I was satisified that I had been a finalist. On Sun- day, I said many tearful good byes and re- turned home. My week at the state pageant was an exhausting one. but I have wonderful memories, which I will never forget. by Mary Scifres 118 Senior VIP's V JULIE BYRD Speech 3,4; ESA 4; Track 2,3,4; MORE Magazine 4; Concert Choir 4; Band 1; Cheerleader 1,2,3.4.

Surgery saves year for Wise Senior Greg Wise went through a very harrowing experience this year when physician Dr. Frederick Porter discovered a cyst in Greg’s sinus cavity. On November 16 Dr. Porter took Greg into a long surgery taking three hours. The operation was de- scribed as removing the front part of the skull then taking out the cyst and then re- placing the bone. Surgery w s not all that fun! said Wise, ball team and could be described by anyone who saw him as a very aggressive player. After a fitting recovery he returned to play on January 3, he commented on his recu- peration. “Coach Reed and the team mem- bers were very helpful in getting me going again. The season was only fleeting for Wise; he had to quit later because it was hampering his physical recovery. However, before quitting basketball. Wise was able to par- ticipate in the North East game which was televised for the first time ever. After he quit basketball his headaches became less frequent. During the summer Wise went to Europe to visit a friend Daniel who Wise met two years ago while he was an AFS student. In the fall Wise plans to attend KJPUI Colum- bus to study computers and have a minor of German and Japanese. As a result of his surgery. Wise said, I realize now that someone who has been hurt can be held back from doing things he wants to do for awhile. I can really sympa- thize now with people who are permanently handicapped because I was temporarily handicapped. by Jocelyn Taber 130 Senior VIP's Far left: Senior Vicky Stewart perfects her makeup for the drama production of “The Good Doctor.

LISA ZIEGLER Top three gain honor, satisfaction hat's so big about being one, two, or three in your whole Senior Class? It's a feeling of satisfaction and pride and know- ing that you have done your best and it has paid off in the end. Number one Mary Scifres, number two Beth Sylvester and number three Keith Fen- ner know that excitement and like the feel of it. Scifres moved here from Salem, Indiana, where she was number one. Because East was such a bigger school, she doubted very much she could retain that position. But in November of her junior year, she found out that she was again first in her class. “When I found out that I was first, it made me want to work to keep it,” said Scifres. Sylvester came in at number three as a sophomore. “I was happy as number three. I felt privileged just to be in the top five. I never gave class rank any thought until I found out I was number three. Then, I want- ed to work hard to keep that position, she said. Being ranked as number two surely means enjoying school, but as Sylvester puts it. “I hate school. Fenner gets satisfaction out of knowing that he is number three. He says he enjoys school, but like everyone else, there are some classes he doesn't like. For someone as studious as Fenner studying should be an easy task; but as Keith puts it, The closer it gets to the end of the year, the harder it becomes. by Lori Bryant Senior Mary Scifres studies at the rail. 142 Senior VIP's Senior Keith Fenner, who is ranked third in his class, studies for a calcu- lus test during resource time.

Two of the outstanding salespersons who participated in activities were Regina Whipker and Gary Muckaby. Both helped by selling posters, placemats, candy, don- uts, and keychains. Regina said that she knew from past experience that these were the items that sold best. She said the con- sumers were a mixed group. However, the posters went mostly to the kids, placemats to adults, and donuts to teachers. Both agreed that candy definitely sold best. Whipker said, lt was easy; kids in Mineral Springs will eat anything.’’ Both were surprised to find out how many people had not been asked to buy anything. Students would even come up to them at school and ask them what they were selling. Whipker commented. 'Even though it was a hassle trying to keep all of those figures straight, I had fun doing it. Huckaby said that he hoped next year more people would become interested in the fund-raising projects. He said, It needs to be a total school effort, not just the re- sponsibility of one or two people. Agreeing that the experience had been for a good cause, they added they enjoyed helping out. Combined the two seniors sold a total amount of merchandise of nearly one thousand dollars.

Tom Sebastian — always striving for excellence Senior Tom Sebastian passed away on March 3, 1983. after a freak pole vault- ing accident. Tom always believed that ev- eryone has a purpose and a responsibility to dedicate his life to fulfilling that purpose. Tom believed his purpose was to always do his best, to always strive for excellence in everything from school spirit to being the best athlete possible. He died in pursuit of excellence as a track team member. School spirit was a constant concern of Tom’s and he tried to do his part by being a leader or active in what he chose to join. Tom was a member of the Fellowship Bap- tist Church, captain of the men's track team, a regional competitor in 1982. a two- year letterman and active in AAC1 and AAB. Also, Tom competed in wrestling four years earning two letters. At Central he was on the football team and continued with that sport at East. Also, he played basket- ball at Central. His brother Troy accepted his senior award for obtaining four letters in two sports during Awards Day. The students and faculty demonstrated respect and love with a standing ovation for Tom's achieve- ment of excellence. 145 Dedication: That’s the name of the game to any athlete. Striving to become the best he or she can be, that’s what it's all about. Whether it be sliding into home plate, sinking an impossible jump shot, or being first to cross the line, every athlete must meet the challenge within himself. 146 Crossing the line rossing the line All the Way Who or what would you credit your successful season? (36 f course my coach, Jim Sheridan was a tremen- dous help. He pushed me to make goals that I never thought I could make. My parents are also a part of my success. They came to almost all of my meets and they can bring me back up if I’m feeling down.” Junior Pam Hay- den. would credit the whole U team and our coaches. The coaches were terrific and there is no way we could have gone to the State and won it with- out the support of the team, our coaches, and our friends.” Soph- omore Chelle Richardson Sophomore Kim Cookson takes a breath before continuing her freestyle swim. Junior Dale Etnyre stands smiling on the place platform during the State championship. Etnyre won the 100 fly. Sophomore Sarah McDaniel looks for the Duck, the team mascot, during an event. Junior Anne Dugan shows graceful form while performing a back dive. Women’s Swimming to State They went undefeated. They won the State championship. How does a team become so successful? The women’s swim team credits its success to many different things. One such influence was the words of wisdom that Coach Jim Sheridan used to say. Junior Dawn Chandler explained, He said always have a good attitude, and always give 100%, regardless if it's in practice or in a meet you give 100% all the time. Another way the swimmers got psyched up was through an original pro- gram known as Secret Pals. The pro- gram worked like a secret admirer. Be- fore every meet each girl would receive some sort of a gift or message from her Secret Pal, but she would not know who it came from until the end of the season. Sophomore Sarah McDaniel ex- pressed enthusiasm for this program, I thought it was nice to know that someone was out there rooting you on. In addition to this program, some swim- mers psyched themselves up in other ways. Some of the divers just simply practiced their approach on ground to get them tuned into the meet. Others had more imaginative ways, like Senior Nancy Ziegler. The way I got psyched up was to pre- tend that Tom Selleck was at the other end of the pool!” She added that the team members and Coach Sheridan also psyched her up. I psyched myself up by psyching oth- ers up. I liked making others laugh and loosening them up. You can always swim better when you’re relaxed, Chandler commented. Apparently the words of wisdom, the Secret Pals, and the individual efforts helped to make the women’s swim team have one of the most successful seasons ever. And what a season it was — Cham- pions! by Carla Bowen Junior Dale Etnyre concentrates on her performance during a swim meet. Women’s Swimming Define Us Wet squeaky, sopped, running shoes, dringed hair, mittens and long hours of practice all contributed to the success of the women’s cross country team. Successful is how I would define our team, Junior Holly Miles said. We did the best we could do and we’re proud of what we have accomplished. The season record of 2-9 might not look too impressive to some, but it all de- pends on how you define success. I feel that we did have an excellent season. We kept on running and working, although the odds were against us, commented Ju- nior Carol Ziegler. Beginning the season with eight run- ners that were determined to the last meet just wasn’t enough to void injury. Junior April Neth had a leg injury and had to resign from distance running; however she did stay active with the team. Junior Lisa Hartman said, April was a great help. At some meets she was the only fan. It didn’t matter if the team had fans or no fans, one thing for sure is they pushed themselves to the limit and didn't let the odds weigh them down. We received the satisfaction of hard work paying off and that’s what I call successful, Miles add- ed with a smile. by Kim Stevens Lisa Hartman, a junior, runs along at a steady pace. Women s Cross Country Successful ow do you psyche yourself up for a meet? (3£3[] don’t get all nervous or U worried about it like a lot of people do. I try to have a positive attitude about it. If I know I’m go- ing to get beat it doesn’t discour- age me; I just do my best any- way. Junior Holly Miles efore a race, I become LEy nervous and even tense. While I'm warming up for a meet I think about what I need to do. I try and set a goal of a certain time or pace. Then I just make sure I’m well stretched and warmed and ready to go. Senior Beth Buck Sophomore Laurie Buck shows the Senior Beth Buck prepares herself for strain of long distance running. the remainder of the race. Sophomore Linda Oliverio gives a smile as she learns the race is about over. Women’s Cross Country Sporting Our Mr. Bill McMahan, coach of East’s cross country team, certainly had much to be proud of this season. He labeled this as, “The best season that East has ever had.” The big highlight of the season came when the team went to the Semi- State meet for the first time ever. This, according to Coach McMahan, was an exceptional season, considering that the team was handicapped by the illness of their second best runner. East’s cross country team also went to and won many other meets. Among these were the Hoosier Hills Conference, the Bartholomew County meet, the Seymour Invitational, the Bedford-North Lawrence Invitational, and the East Invitational. East went to the Semi-State meet with an impressive record of 51 wins and only one loss. The team was also the first team from East to reach the Semi-State level. Another record was set by the ju- nior team at the Bloomington Classic Meet, by winning second place with the highest finish from any team in Columbus’ history. Three of the boys from this year’s team were also named to the All-Confer- ence team. The cross country team has certainly had one of their best seasons ever. They have certainly crossed the line far ahead of the rest. by Larry Brackney Determination is a main driving force in cross country running. Here, Junior Randy Hampton exhibits determination among other things, as he pulls ahead to take the lead. Men's Cross Country Best Season Ever ow do you feel about this year s sea- son? (36 f] ast year’s cross country Uzd season was a great season for the team. We had a great record and won every Invitational that we ran in. So as you can tell I liked the last year's season and hope for a good season next year.” Sopho- more David Turner WaV7 e haci the best season ‘n AJ the school’s history. All of the summer practices and train- ing really paid off by helping us make it to Semi-State. If we contin- ue to practice until next season, we won’t fall short of our goal of going to the State championships.” Junior Brent Clayburn Gtffl thought the season was J great. We accomplished all but one of our goals. We set out at the beginning of the year to go to State. I think if we work hard and run as a team we will have an even bet- ter season this year.” Junior Mike Sophomore Robby Ward takes time after a grueling race to cool off. This also allowed time for runners to men- tally “recap” their performance and evaluate it. Sophomore Jeff Deck’s face shows the agony experienced by most cross country runners during a long race. Junior Brent Clayburn makes running a long race look almost easy, as he passes other runners. Races usually begin at an even pace, but soon, the better runners take the lead. For the most part, East took the lead this season. Men s Cross Country 153 Beating Being V Senior Carla Bowen keeps her eyes on the ball to make a pass. During a time out the Olympians give each other some moral support. IT ow did being underrated affect the TLl team’s season? o: wanted to be recognized for the excellence we possessed. We were not overconfident at any point and I think the fans always like to see an underdog win.” Coach Yvonne Wilhite (3(3(1 think being underrated helped U us more than it hurt us. We were not rated, but we knew we were better than most of the teams that were. This made us strive to be better.” Senior Beth Sylvester eew e were a really good team, and I think some people might have even dreaded playing us. We were really team-ori- ented. and that had a lot to do with our successful season.” Senior Carla Bowen flfiWIW e new that we wou,d AJ have to work our hardest to get on top. We worked as a team and not as individuals. We support- ed each other all the way.” Sopho- more Jill Taylor (3(3 n 7 e wanted to be recog- J J nized as a good team and it made us work harder. We were a young team, but we had a lot of tal- ent.” Sophomore Rachelle Roberts 154 Women's Volleyball the Underdog The women’s volleyball team was ex- pected to have just a mediocre season this year since they lost five starters; what they had was a trip to Semi-State. Junior Amy Lian commented, I didn’t think we were very experienced because we were a young team. We weren’t really consistent with being good; we had our ups and downs all season. I think it really surprised Yvonne (Coach Wilhite) and us that we went as far as we did.” East’s record of 25-10 earned them the honor of being one of the top 20 in the state. Their record also included various tournaments that they attended on Satur- days. Going to tournaments apparently helped them gain the much needed ex- perience. Junior Mary Arnholt explained, We got tougher because we got to play all kinds of teams, teams that were ranked higher than us.” Although the lady volleyballers had to work extra hard to be recognized, they felt like they had become known as a Southern powerhouse. Senior captain Beth Sylvester said, ”1 think we were rec- ognized by other teams. East has always had pretty good teams. We’ve been to State twice, Regional three times and tra- ditionally we have always had a good team.” Sylvester added, We came out of a tough Sectional, having to beat Co- lumbus North and Jennings County. I think Southern teams see us as the team to beat.” To top off all of this they also won their second HHC title. Underdogs? Maybe so, but East cer- tainly proved they have the talent to over- come all obstacles. Their record might not be quite so impressive under normal circumstances, but one must consider that they also went through the entire season without a gym floor. by Carla Bowen Senior Beth Sylvester and Junior Mary Arnholt ready themselves for a serve. Sophomore Jill Taylor and Junior Amy Lian jump in unison to make a block. Women's Volleyball 155 Pushing Forward Being ranked as high as seventh in the state, placing one player on the All-State team, placing five football players on the All-Hoosier Hills Conference team, having the Olympian coach John Stafford named HHC Coach of the Year and making it to playoffs with a 9-1 record all add up to another successful football season for the End Zone Express team. Named to the HHC team were Pat Kiel, Tim Huntington, Robbie Proffitt, Matt Fior- ini and Jeff Burns. Also, Proffitt was named to the All-State team. Honorable mentions were given to Greg Martin, Todd Husmann, Jay Maxwell and Greg Nolting. Rushing for more than 100 yards in nine consecutive games, Martin was named Most Valuable Player. Although tensions were the expected high for the annual East-North rival game, the Olympians again came out the victors shutting out the Bulldogs, 14-0. Homecoming was another offensive ef- fort with the Olympians destroying Sey- mour 33-7. The offensive team ran for 492 total yards by six ball carriers. But the string of impressive wins was earned by both the defense and the of- fense. The O’s defense displayed consis- tent “iron curtain” strength during the season, holding their first eight oppo- nents to a total of only 45 points, the best in the HHC. i i Senior Pat Kiel prepares to pass the ball down the field to another of his teammates, as another player blocks for him in an attempt to protect him from the opposing team. Seniors Rob Proffitt and Jim Oathout express their feelings towards them- selves and the team. Positive feelings like these helped to boost moral in all of their games. Varsity Football For Victories jTJJ ow do you get “psyched up” for a football game? (3(3(1 ’m usually quiet. I don't U punch or hit anything or anybody, but I think about the game. I try to picture in my mind exactly how I am going to do things.

Just the thought of being able to play and hit people from the other team hard got me psyched up.” Senior Tim Huntington Senior David Strietelmier presses through North’s defenses toward the end zone while Junior Greg Kiel runs ahead clearing a path for him. Junior Greg Kiel is raised up in victory after an exciting game. This is just one of the ways that the team celebrated after winning a game. A mob of North players rush forward to meet Seniors Jim Oathout and Brian Depp head on, in their attempt to keep East from getting down the field too far. Varsity Football Rebuilding Straining muscles, mental strategy, and agony are all part of the infamous high school sport of wrestling. Many know the feeling of that excrutiating pain that their opponent can afflict, and they also know that they must keep calm so they can plan their next maneuver. Wrestling is one of the most difficult sports of all in that it is essentially a con- test of one’s endurance. Who will give out first? That is the deciding question in who will win the match. This year's team had a lot of determina- tion and endurance to go as far as any other, but they were a young team so that hampered some of the meets. Senior Al- len Smith explained, “It was a rebuilding season for us. We had a lot of new kids coming in, a lot of them were freshmen, and we also had a new coach.” He also added that their freshmen were wrestling against juniors and seniors, which made it hard to win. The new coach, John Stafford com- mented that, “This year’s team has shown a lot of improvement, and all the wrestlers show real effort.” The team’s record of 6-9, was good, considering their experience. They en- dured and next year they plan to come back stronger than ever. by Larry Brackney Freshman Dana Buck pulls his oppo- nents arm away as he attempts to break a hold. Scott Johnson, a junior, goes for a switch. 158 Wrestling the Hold What sort of lessons have you learned from this season? 66 n n restling is the hardest V7V sport I have ever par- ticipated in. Wrestling is like all sports when it comes to positive thinking. I have learned what it takes to endure a rough match, if you can win in wrestling, you know you’re in good shape.” Senior Matt Fiorini ven though wrestling is an individual sport our team had good team work. We supported people while they were in matches as well as push- ing them in practice. The training was both mentally and physically hard but in the end it all paid off.” Sophomore Brian Tempest (3(3W7 ou have to have a really li positive attitude when you go into a match. If you work hard and try to be the best that you can be, then the hard work will pay.” Sophomore David Bos- ton Senior Matt Fiorini goes for a stand up. Sophomore Brian Tempest keeps his man down with a double arm bar. Junior Scott Johnson sets his man up for a take down. Wrestling Unusual Season ooking back over your season what would you have changed? (3(5L-i H he main thing I could of u changed is my concen- tration during a match. That hurt me the most during the season, especially at Sectionals. My con- centration was poor and that cost me the Sectional title.” Sen- ior Mark Hostetler C3 C3 n would have worked harder u on getting a first serve. I would have liked to control my temper towards others when things weren't going my way. I needed to work hardest at get- ting down on myself after a missed shot.” Senior Tommie Henninger Senior Mark Hostetler struggles to re- turn a serve. Returing may appear easy, but by juding Mark’s expression, one gets the impression that it is diffi- cult. Senior Mike Watkins jumps forward to hit a ball coming his way. A strategy many players employ, is to keep their opponents running, tiring them out. Sophomore Tom Hickey casually hits the ball back to his opponent. Such times are few and far between for ten- nis player. 160 Men’s Tennis For A Reason The men’s tennis team had a average season of 14-6, but it became a season of a new sport for one player from West Ger- many, Jurgen Lietzow! Jurgen started the season not even knowing how to play, but he was willing to take the time to learn. At first he had some difficulty understanding some of the jargon of tennis, according to Sophomore Jeff Holmes. Holmes was called upon to help teach Jurgen the basic skills and rules. Jur- gen's game and skills improved over the course of the season, and he won several matches towards the end of the season, Holmes commented. This year’s team is also going to lose a large majority of seniors. I don’t think they will be lacking talent, said Senior Chris Dickey. He also added, Our under- classmen have a lot of talent, so I think they should be okay next year. Many players described the year as just being a lot of fun expecting next year to be a lot of work. by Larry Brackney Troy White, a senior, hits a tennis ball seemingly effortlessly as he returns the ball to his rival across the court. Men's Tennis Goal Kicking What are your hopes for next year since you had a good season this year? G (3 [Ml ext year we hope to have a UVJ winning season and end up in the final four in the State competi- tion. North usually has a really good team so we hope to beat them as UU well. I am also looking forward to meeting up with Carmel again since they are one of our biggest rivals.” Sophomore GJ Kelly £5(3 7 ne of our goals for next season is to beat North. If we work really hard we should also end in the final four at the State competition. We are losing a few good people, but I don’t think that should stop us from being a really good team next year.” Junior Richie Holdeman Team members congratulate each oth er on a job well done. Senior Jeff Crouch gives the ball a kick during the playoff game with Carmel. Junior Richie Holdeman stays just a step ahead of an opposing Carmel player. Soccer In A Rough Season 9 Beginning soccer practice sessions before the school started, like the foot- ball team, the motive was to prepare themselves for the 1982 season and their first game against Columbus North. The game started with a very fast pace as both teams were hungry to see who would score the first goal. They played a tough match but couldn’t overcome cros- stown rivals. They lost 3 1. Following the game against North the team played Rushville, again losing an- other hard-fought match. Then they played Terre Haute South, and they ac- quired their first season massacre win- ning the game with a score of 13-0. On September 25 it was a game that would prove whether or not they could make it through the season. They played defending State champions North Cen- tral. At halftime Junior Richie Holdeman said, I don’t believe we are playing like this.” The score was tied at the halftime mark. The olympians played well by los- ing by a mere 3-1. But they came back to defeat New Albany in their next match. Then tournament time came and they had to play against Indiana Baptist for a second time. They defeated Baptist 4-1 and for the second time they advanced to the State tournament and regionals against Carmel. Carmel was one of the top-rated teams in Indiana; the game would be rough. So on the coldest night of the year the play- ers set out to play with mittens on their hands. They played hard, but couldn’t overcome the talent of the Carmel play- ers. They would up their season with a record of 10-4. by Dumisani Zulu Coach Jon Shepler gives his team some advice during a timeout. Senior Dumisani Zulu is caught in a tough position between three Carmel defensive players. Soccer Just A Almost a decade ago the women’s golf team went to Regionals, as a team. This year, after a long rest of a really good team, they repeated their performance. So the team set out on an overcast and windy day to do its best. They played against some great teams such as Co- lumbus North, Richmond, and Greens- burg. Members of the team described their season as good, but one member stood out of the crowd, Senior Kim Patton. She shot a 95 at Hoosier links in Indianapolis. Patton also became a member of the All- Conference team. I was flabbergasted; I just couldn’t be- lieve it,” Patton commented. “I worked hard at every practice and stayed until seven or seven-thirty, and sometimes I even had to hit balls in the dark.” All of her hard work paid off in the end because she was named captain and most valu- able player. The season didn’t start off so easy. They had a close match with Seymour, losing by one stroke; Bloomington South was another close match as well. The team is only losing two seniors, so they hope to regain all of the composure they had this year. by Larry Brackney Sophomore Michelle Priddis and Senior Barrie Fuller practice chipping. Senior Kim Patton hits the ball out of a sand trap spraying sand everywhere. Women s Golf Putt Away What do you think are qualities of a good golfer? 6 (3 [1 think the first quality of a good U golfer is to love importance. Mrs. Burton is certainly that. She really takes an interest in her team and is always willing to help anytime you need her.1’ Senior Kim Patton (3 6 good golfer must be a good Z - A thinker and have good con- centration.

Michelle Priddis, a sophomore, pre- pares to drive the ball as her team- mates look on. Women's Golf A Split Second Very few high school sports have as long a season as swimming. Each year the men’s swim team has a season that lasts five long and grueling months. The rigorous schedule of an Olympian swim- mer begins early on a Monday morning, around six a m. in the weight room. After a complete physical workout, the swim- mers are off into a nice cool pool of water, to swim laps. They repeat this procedure on every Wednesday and Friday. Tues- days and Thursday the swimmers get off easy with having only a regular swim practice. In addition to this, every swim- mer is expected to be ready to go after school for a rough practice. All of this intense type swimming paid off for the 200-yard relay team of four seniors: Scott Barker, Dennis Deeter, Da- vid Hunt, and Gene Weaver. Weaver also qualified in two individual events — the 100-yard backstroke and the 200-IM. The goal that the relay team sat was to beat the old record for the 200-yard relay. They didn’t do that, but they came within a split second of achieving this. This season had one very significant difference compared to years past; there were no significant time drops until the end of the season. “Last year we had time drops all season, this year there were hardly any. But at the end of the season we had even better time drops, all at once,” Hunt explained. The team that East wanted to beat most this year was Bedford, according to Junior Pat Limbach. “They were out to get us because we had beaten them the last few years.” The Olympians might have fallen short this year of their goal, just by that impera- tive second. But in swimming a split sec- ond is everything. by Carla Bowen Displaying near perfect form Sopho- more Tom Hickey strives for perfection while practicing a difficult dive. 166 Men's Swimming Is Everything What did you hope to accomplish when the season began? fifin hoped to be competitive u and lower my times in all of my events. I also wanted to swim in some new events. Above all I wanted to finish high in the Sec- tionals. Junior Pat Limbach (3(5n wanted to beat my own U times and go to State like I did last year.

Gritting teeth, flying hair and a strain- ing neck are apparent as Sophomore Tony Harvey dives. Even with fogged goggles Senior David Hunt stays in his lane. Men's Swimming Tumbling On East women's gymnastics team fin- ished off an impressive season by going all the way to the State competition. With only a handful of losses, the team was quite pleased with its season. The sea- son record of 6-2 helped them to win Sec- tionals and Regionals and carry them on to win fourth in the State competition. Junior Carol Ziegler summed up her feelings of State, I was excited and ner- vous to be there ... I felt that before we were going to do better than fourth, but when it was over I felt we had tried our best. One of the first major meets that the team participated in and won was the Sectional; it was the first time that the team had won such a meet since 1979. Leading the team were Juniors Janet Ponder and April Neth, both of whom scored highly in their events to help the team. The biggest boost for the team came when Cari Russel averaged a score of 7.95 in the floor exercises, putting North in second place. Senior Jo Stonecipher commented on North being the opposition to beat, They were our toughest competition because they had already beaten us in a dual meet. We knew we had a chance in Sec- tionals, but we didn’t think we would win; it would be close with North. For many of the members of the team it was their first time to be in the State meet. However, Junior Janet Ponder would compete for her second time at this level. She had competed last year by her- self and was well acquainted with the ins and outs of State competition. Next year the team hopes to win State and become the defending champs. by Carla Bowen Junior Janet Ponder leaps across the floor at the state meet in the floor exer- cises.

(3(3CTP his was my first year to U go to State as a team, unlike last year when I went as an individual. I had a lot of support, but I was still very nervous. It was a day I will never forget!” Junior Janet Ponder £3(3 oing to State is a goal every year. When it really happened I couldn't be- lieve it. I was so excited and glad to be part of the team and to be able to participate in the meet.

Women’s Gymnastics AJ $ Gymnasts After only losing two seniors the men’s gymnastic team was looking forward to having at least a few good years of some incredible gymnastic teams. There hopes were shattered when they discovered that this year would be the final year for their sport. Many members announced their displeasure for this decision, espe- cially since they had one of the best sea- sons ever with a final trip to State compe- tition. Although their record was 4-4, they made an impressive showing with a fifth place at State. “We set out to beat Perry Meridian and we did the best we could,” Junior Dan Maudlin said. “Everyone had excellent routines but they (Perry) still ended up ahead of us. The exemption of this sport will leave many gymnasts up in the air with no place to land. “Gymnastics offers a person a sport in which you don’t have to be six foot and weigh two-hundred pounds to be in, Junior Mark James said. He also add- ed, “It is probably one of the only sports that offers a variety of pieces of equip- ment plus numerous skills to learn, rather than some sports in which you do only one thing. Many members of the team saw an al- ternative to being dormant next year. Ju- nior Mike Ward explained, “Next year Co- lumbus North is going to have a Gymnastic Club and a lot of our guys are going over there and workout with them. Even though there will be no formal events next year, many will continue to workout and continue to enjoy their sport. As Ward put it, “The IHSAA can take gym- nastics out of the high school, but they can’t get rid of our spirit and devotion towards it. by Carla Bowen Junior Greg Walters shows his skill on the pommel horse.

(3S11 don’t think it's fair. I know LI gymnastics is not a very pop ular sport at East, but it could have gotten popular. This year the team did better than any other team in East's history, and we would’ve done even better next year.” Junior Dan Maudlin GGn feel it is a shame that they are U not having gymnastics next year. There are a lot of talented kids around the state and they will be out of luck next year. It is really hard on our team because we had the best team in East’s history and I feel we could’ve had a better team next year.” Junior Mike Ward fifif] am very displeased with the U decision of cutting gymnas- tics out of the high school athletics program. It really makes it hard when you turn out the best team in the history of the school. I really hate to see gymnastics fade away from the high school program.” Ju- nior Mark James Junior Mark James concentrates while he does an L-seat on the still rings. Senior Doug Burton gets some good height off the pommel horse. Men's Gymnastics 171 Waiting Things went tough for this year’s wom- en’s basketball team. They didn’t have one of their best seasons, but it wasn’t because of any lack of talent. The team’s main drawback was their lack of exper- ience. This year’s coach, Larry Shook, ex- plained, This season was a learning ex- perience; it was based on progress. The girls worked very hard, but their efforts just didn't pay off in victory. Most of the team were underclassmen, with little and no experience. The few sen- iors on the team also had little exper- ience, Shook explained. Senior Kathy Hughey said, Beth Buck and I didn’t have very much time on the varsity team last year, because we had so many seniors on the team. This was really my first year for varsity basket- ball.” The only player to play on varsity last year was Senior Beth Sylvester. Mem- bers of the team felt distraught that they didn’t have a winning season. They didn’t have a string of victories, but they did have a chance to grow and become ex- perienced for next year’s season. by Carla Bowen The team struggles to gain control of the ball.

Men's Basketball Last Minutes The men’s basketball team started its season with an impressive 5 0 standing. However, their perfect record was upset by a number of last minute losses. Still the season was, A lot of fun, according to Junior Todd Husmann. The team started out strong in the first few games undefeated and with the hope of going all the way to the Sectionals. After the first few games, things started going wrong for the team. Many team members were disappointed with the season because the games were so close. This was frustrating to the team because it had now lost its perfect record from the beginning of the season. Beating Floyd Central was great, commented Senior Junior Motfatt. Several team members attribute the last minute losses to poor cooperation and feel that if they had worked together more they would not have lost as many games as they did. That may have helped them, but some players say that the last minute wins were largely due to luck. by Larry Brackney Junior Mark White takes a shot while an opponent tries to stop him.

Men's Basketball Too Close hat was tfle most exciting match you have ever had? £3G[Ty7 y most exciting match AAI was my doubles match with Robin Duncan against Bloomington South. There was a lot of pressure and the match was close. But we stuck it out and won.” Senior Jane Kutch £3(3[1 would have to say my most U exciting match was agianst Columbus North’s Jennie Lowry. The second time we met it was extremely close and I should've won, but I just ended up having more mistakes, but I lost. At least it was close.” Senior Carla Bowen Seniors Robin Duncan and Nancy Bur- brink take a breather during a match. Coach Joel Metzler gives some advice to players on the court. Senior Jane Kutch keeps her eyes on the ball. 176 Women’s Tennis for Comfort % High winds, extremes in heat, and some courts that were less than playable, were just a few of the things that the wom- en’s tennis team had to take into consid- eration when playing. During the individual Hoosier Hills Con- ference many members got the thrill of playing in weather that isn’t suitable for flying a kite, much less tennis. Senior cap- tain Jane Kutch said, Your game plan had to change every other game, depend- ing on the side you were on.” It was no wonder, on one side the play- ers hit with the 50 mile an hour wind, therefore sailing out almost any normally hit ball. On the other side it had taken all of the tennis players strength just to hit the ball back. The team came very close to beating crosstown rival Columbus North, for the first time in East’s eleven-year history. The No. 1 doubles team of Seniors Nan- cy Burbrink, and Robin Duncan both des- cirbed their beating North as an outstand- ing achievement. Burbrink said, We beat them 6-3, 6-2, and I felt like that was the best we have ever played all year.” Duncan agreed, After we beat them I felt like saying we showed them a thing or two!” The team went in as defending champs at the HHC, but lost both times to Jen- nings County. Their record of 9-5 earned them a reputation of being too close for North’s comfort. by Carla Bowen Senior Lori Douglas gets in position to hit back a driving forehand.

What was something you have learned from this season? £3(3 ne of the main things that I have learned from the season is not to give up be- cause of a bad game. You just cannot let past performances in- fluence the way you are going to play.” Junior Jeff McFall £5(51 =? from this season I have U learned how to compete in a meet with a lot of pressure. I learned a lot from our pro, Dave Baril and from our coach, Robert Gergely. We also had a lot of hard practices, so I have learned from that.” Sophomore Chris Eg- gers 178 Men's Golf The Par After breaking even with a 14-14 record the men’s golf team had a stroke of good fortune when they placed in the top ten at Sectionals. “We were in second place at the turn with a 239-240, Junior Erik Barnett re- ported. “Then we just blew it by shooting 48, 54, 46, and 47.” They ended up in seventh place, out of twenty-one teams. The team had an apparent consistency problem throughout the season. Barnett commented. “Whenever two players shot sub 80 the other two players would shoot over 80.” Another golfer, Sophomore Chris Eg gers commented on this problem, “I think our consistency problem was because we didn’t dedicate ourselves on the weekends, to go out and shoot 18 holes “ by Larry Brackney Junior Erik Barnett follows the ball as it flies towards the green. Senior Donny Baker concentrates be- fore he hits the ball. Men’s Golf Semi-state Snatched For the second straight year the Olym- pians advanced to semi-state only to have a shot at state snatched away by a Muncie team. Last year Muncie Burris de- feated East 7-1 and this year Muncie North squeaked by with a 5-4 victory. The Olympians had won 21 straight games going into semi-state, with sound victories over rival North in sectional and South Dearborn in regionals. To team members the victory over North was the sweetest. In season play. North beat East, but in the sectional re- match the Olympians came out on top, 10-4. During the game both senior right- handers George Davis and Junior Moffatt pitched a strong game, backed up by al- most flawless defense. Although the Olympians fell behind in regional, the team rallied to a 10-8 victo- ry. Coach Lou Giovanini voiced confi- dence in his team, With the kind of hit- ting we have throughout our lineup, we Junior Eric Bottorff slides into base just as the baseman gets the ball. Tim Huntington, a senior, catches a ball thrown by a teammate in a warm-up be- fore a game. can peck away an inning at a time or come up with the one big inning.” Contributing to the 28-5 season record was the expected consistency of a Gio- vanini team. Both the outstanding pitch- ing and consistent hitting were voiced as reasons from team members that the Olympians again left their mark on most opponents. For the fifth season in a row the baseball team brought home the Hoo- sier Hills Conference crown. That section- al victory, well it was a consistent sixth in only 11 years of baseball at East. As far as semi-state — we’ll have our chance to snatch it too! 180 From East Again 0 it IS ow would you describe defeating JTJ North in Sectional? ectional was a sweet $5) victory.

Senior John Wischmeier pushes him- self to the limits, straining to get the lead in a race. Sophomore Mike Clancy uses his own special technique to gain a few more feet. 182 Three to State “That’s the way I always want to run,” yells Junior Mike Settle across the Indi- ana University indoor track. Settle had just broken the two-mile record, his sec- ond in two weeks and early in the season. But Settle didn't stop at that for season accomplishments. He was one of three track members to qualify for state and the only men’s team member to run in a final event. Settle finished 14th in the 3,200 run in 9:40 at the 80th annual state track meet. Another state qualifier was Junior Greg Johnson, who placed third in the 800-me- ter run at regionals, with a time of 1:57.3. Third qualifier Junior Vance Sanders up- set his rival Lee Bridges of North in the 400-meter run at regional with a school record time of 49.7. The East team fin- ished seventh in regionals with 20 points. “The boys work hard for what they achieve,’’ said Coach Bill McMahan. “They know that if they want to come out on top, then they are going to have to work for it.” Junior Brent Clayburn bursts ahead of the rest in a difficult race. 183 Meeting Challenges; We run in all weather, we don’t care! That quote, from Coach Dennis Sylvester of the women’s track team, was put to the test more than once during the 1983 sea- son. The team members ran in rain, sleet, snow, and heavy winds in their spring sea son. Sophomore Michelle Higgins said that at the Richmond Relays, It was hard to get warmed up. You'd get warmed up. and be- fore the race started you'd get cold again • It was no wonder with freezing tem- peratures out. Sophomore Karen Hoskins spoke of her worst experience, which happened at the Bloomington South meet. 'The long jump pit had water standing on top . . . and the shotput field! You had to wade out to get the shot, and the discus field had puddles all over it. Despite the weather, the East Olympians had a winning season. They were undefeat- ed in their ten dual track meets. They won the Connersville Invitational, the Muncie In- vitational, the Floyd Central Invitational, and their Hoosier Hills Conference. They won their Sectional. The team also set a number of school records including everything from the 400- meter dash to the 1600-meter relay. Of course, the state title in the 800-meter run by Sophomore Rachelle Roberts climaxed the season. Coach Sylvester replied, Oh! We've had a fantastic year! by Jeff Holmes Sophomore Rachelle Roberts accepts her award as state champ in the 800- meter run. She is the first athlete in 31 years to win a state track event. 184 Making History w hat were some of the factors that helped you win meets? a (3(3 feel that we have a pretty J good team this year but all the credit should not go to the athletes alone.

We were all good friends who had a good time when we worked together and won together.

Since then, the business has been run by a member of the Kroot family at all times. It has survived two world wars and the Great Depression. According to Art Kroot, one of the pre- sent owners of the business, Joseph had three sons — Ben. Sam. and Abe. These three took over the business in 1931. Art and his cousin Joe assumed responsibility for the business during the 1960's. Originally, the Kroot Corporation was housed in a building on First Street. A rede- velopment program that was instituted cleared businesses out of the area where the Commons now stands. The Kroots thought they, too, would be asked to relo- cate. Although the program never did in- clude their business, the Kroot Corporation moved to 2915 State Street. Kroot said there were two basic reasons their business has been able to survive, where so many others have failed. The first reason is that the Kroot Corporation is a scrapyard, and. therefore, tied in with heavy industry. This is something that Co- lumbus has always had. (He mentioned Ar vin, Cummins, and the Golden Foundry specifically.) The second reason is the own- ership. Kroot said that many family busin- esses are shut down by ... a weak genera- tion of owners ... He defined weak owners as people who lose interest in the business or don’t know how to run the busi- ness. He said that, so far, this hasn't hap- pened to their business. he major advantage of family busin- T esses, said Kroot, is that they ... are typically more receptive to a community ... He said these businesses have more of a stake in their community, and tend to support the community more than a large business that has branches in hundreds of cities. He pointed out that fam ily businesses are usually locally owned, and do not change hands as quickly as most businesses. However. Kroot also said, Owning one s own business once had greater advan- tages. He feels that one of the disadvan- tages to a family business is that they are not as interested in growth. He feels this is because the owners often have more at stake; more to lose from mistakes. He said that usually, when a family business be- comes fairly large, it is bought by a big company. root said he thinks ... it is getting Kmore difficult, from generation to generation, to operate a business. he feels there is a trend toward the oper ation of a business requiring greater skills and efficiency. The people that have these skills can get a good job, he said, but often they find they can do better in industry. Thus many people capable of running a small business are drawn away. Before, said Kroot. the only option open for the men in his family has been to enter the family business. He still likes the busi- ness. and it is important to him, but he feels he should give his children a choice. Dem- onstrating a feeling that may also be play- ing its part in the decline of the family busi- ness. Kroot said, It doesn't really make any difference whether the business stays in the family. by Jeff Holmes photos courtesy Art and Ben Kroot 204 Inside Columbus Davis music — tradition more than a century he Gary Davis Music Makers Store Ton Third Street in downtown Colum- bus has been in existence for 23 years. The family has sold instruments since 1931. The musical service of the Da- vis family to Columbus, however, has been a tradition for well over a century. In the early eighteen hundreds. Ransom Davis started a general store nine miles east of Columbus. He named the settlement Newbern, after New Bern. North Carolina. Ransom's great grandson was Ephriam Davis. Ephriam played in the Columbus City Band (then known as the Big Six). He eventually became the director and con- ductor of that organization. Gary C. Davis, like his father, played in the Columbus band, eventually becoming its director and conductor. Being born into the business. Gary started his career at the age of fourteen. He went on to play in many well-known bands of the time. For a seven- year period. Davis traveled through the United States and Mexico with the Hagen- tuck and Wallace Circus and the Gentry Bros. Dog and Pony Show. He also played in the town Opera House, the center of theatre in Columbus at the time. He was the first person to get a license to teach music in Columbus schools — and helped to organize and direct the Columbus High School Band. In 1910, John Phillip Sousa invited Davis to join his band, but Davis declined in favor of mar- riage. His son, Gary F. Davis, was destined to continue his family’s musical tradition — his career began at the age of five. As a student, Gary played the bugle for school and church functions, as well as at funerals for veterans of the Civil War. the Spanish American War. and World War I. He led his own 13 member band, and gave other stu- dents free lessons (at his father's request) in order to gain experience. Beginning in grade school, Davis played with the Colum- bus High School Band, participating in the band's broadcast on WHAS (Louisville). He studied at the Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music (Indianapolis). avis was the third generation of his D family to play in as well as conduct the Columbus band. Davis continued his music in the military during World War II. He played in Commander Eddie Pea body’s Band (Great Lakes), Artie Shaw's Orchestra (South Pacific) and on Armed Forces Radio. He had solos in AFR shows containing such big names as Bob Hope, Jack Benny, Frances Langford, Jerry Co- Iona . . . Davis returned in 1946. and started the store in 1957. He named the business after his dance orchestra. The Music Makers. Da- vis is the current owner of the music store. Davis pointed out the fact that the business is hard work. Davis said he was attracted to the music business because, ... I had no choice. I was bom into it . . . Both of my parents were in the music business ...

The majority of seniors are going to further their education in col- lege, according to a questionnaire seniors answered. Some students will be staying in Colum- bus attending IGPGI. “I would like to be- come an accountant, Tammy Sieglin said, who plans to attend IGPGI. Other seniors, like Eddie Compton, plans to attend IGPGI for two years and transfer to Purdue. Comp- ton wants to enter into a career dealing with computer technology. The majority of college-bound stu- dents will be attending Indiana Uni- versity, studying everything from dental hygiene to accounting. Computer sciences are also very popular career choices of the Class of '83. Other college choices range from Ball State and Purdue to Great Lakes Bible College in Lansing. Michigan. If not college, other seniors have found employment in the military. Hugh Gray is leaving for Air Force basic training on June 1. I’m enlisted for six years and I plan to reenlist, said Gray. There are just no op- portunities; that's why I joined the Air Force. It's good training. Basic training doesn't worry me. It should be tough men- tally, explained Gray. The Marines will also receive a few East seniors. Don Living- ston has enlisted for four years in the infan- try. Senior Doug Burton also enlisted in the Air Force. I plan to go to college with the money I save while in the Air Force, said Burton. Women are also enlisting in the service. Scarlet Rose has enlisted in the Army for three years. I'll be doing administrative work, said Rose. She leaves for basic in July. Many students have found employment through East’s DECA program. Some DECA students who continue working after graduation hope to attend college, though perhaps not right away. Mr. Mood tells us where we can apply for a job, commented Senior Julie Hilde- brand. but we do the actual applying. We don't get hired just because of DECA; we have to go through an interview like any other person. Hildebrand works at McDon- ald's and plans to continue her employ- ment there. I don't know about college though,” she said. During extended homeroom, juniors and seniors listened to guest speakers who spoke on careers and the employment situ- ation. Such speakers included Ed Wolking from the Chamber of Commerce, as well as representatives from Ivy Tech and IGPGI. The class as a whole pretty much knows where it’s going. Only four percent of the Class of '83 were unde- cided on what careers and colleges they were choosing. by Joe Scgalski East graduate Shelly Conway talks to juniors and seniors during an extended homeroom.

Of course, it was a close contest. Movies such as E.T.,” The Extra-Terrestrial and Tootsie, were also up for best pic- ture. E.T., a movie in which a young boy befriends a stranded alien, did win best musical score. Tootsie was a film in which Dustin Hoffman portrays an actor who is at the end of his rope and dresses as a women to become an overnight star of a daytime soapopera. 4 4 andhi's star. Ben Kingsley, was I] awarded an Oscar for best actor. The best actress award went to Meryl Streep for her performance in So- phie’s Choice. Jessica Lange was awarded best supporting actress for her role in Tootsie. Best original song award was the theme song from An Officer and a Gentlemen, Gp Where We Belong. E.T.,” released in June of 1982, became the top grossing film by the week ending July 7, not quite a month after its release. A survey conducted by the ALTIS staff showed E.T. and Tootsie to be movie favorites. I think Tootsie' was really funny, said Sophomore Scott Patterson. 'E.T.' was really sad in some scenes. said Senior Kathy Roberts. Dustin Hoffman portrayed a woman actress in “Tootsie.” In May, Return of the Jedi, the third episode of the Star Wars trilogy, had local cinemas filled to a standing room only crowd. If it follows the previous two films, Return of the Jedi will be up for awards at the 56th annual Academy Awards banquet. by Joe Scgalski Inside Columbus 211 oT-c ( FOLDING FURNITUR6 212 Inside Columbus DOMINO’S PIZZA FAST FREE 30-MINUTE DELIVERY CONGRATULATIONS 1085 Robert Dr. Apt. 2A Columbus, IN 47201 PH.

An Inside Look At o n c e r t Standing in line for tickets is only the beginning. Going to concerts is tricky business. Someone has to drive; someone has to get tickets. The line outside Market Square Arena is seemingly endless. But the doors finally open. A ticket taker grabs your ticket from your hand, tears it in half, and returns it to you in seconds. Just inside the doorway the faint voices of concessionaires are heard. Once through a small corridor, you enter the actual arena. An artificial breeze brushes your face. The seats, as well as the people appear infinate. A friend grabs your arm and says 'there are some great seats. Before you know it, your friend has sifted through people and chairs and you're both sitting closer to the stage than you had ever dreamed. The vendors are still chanting when the arena is consumed with darkness. You know you're not alone as the screams and whistles remind you of the thousands of people who, like yourself, have been wait- ing in anxious anticipation. The concert you've been waiting for is about to begin. Surveys returned to the ALTIS staff voted Rush as being the concert most people attended, as well as hav- ing the best stage show. Other popular choices were Triumph, Billy Squire, and Def Leppard. There were those who disagreed. The Who’ had an elaborate stage show, as well as a great stage presence,” commented Senior Brock Anderson. Judas Priest put on the best show be- cause their amplifiers were the loudest, stated Junior Trent Harper. Other comments ranged from Tri- umph has the best stage show to “Kiss had a tank. A wide variety of rock groups stopped around the Columbus area. What about after the concert? Survey answers proved White Castle and McDon- ald’s to be the most popular choices to grab some food. Arriving home around midnight, you get home and into bed. It’s a weeknight and 6 a.m. comes early to get ready for school. Maybe before turning out the light you even stretch out the concert jersey you bought to wear the next day. I bought a shirt to show I was there,” said Sophomore Doug Lawson. i i T bought a shirt to remember the con- I cert, said Senior Denise Atnip. by Joe Scgalski Inside Columbus 215 An Inside Look At E vent s 4 4 I — nergy Turns the World was the theme of the 1982 World's Fair. Certainly, 1982 and 1983 were energy filled years. Twenty-two nations and dozens of states and corporations had pavillions concerning energy technology at the fair. War in the Falklands came to an end in June '82. The battle began in April but be- fore its end some 746 Argentines, as well as 255 British troops were killed. Henry Fonda died in August at age 77. Fonda starred in 80 films, 15 plays and numerous television programs. His career lasted 50 years and he received an Academy Award for best actor in his last film, On Golden Pond. Grich Andropov succeeded Leonid Brez- nev as the Soviet Secretary after Bresnev's death in November. He had ruled the coun- try for 18 years. James and Leann Lewis were arrested in November in connection with the death of seven Chicago area residents who died from cyanide laced Extra-Strength Tylenol. Tylenol, the nation’s best selling pain reliev- er, recalled some 264,000 bottles in Octo- ber. The McNeil Company, makers of Ty- lenol, received an extortion letter promising more deaths unless $ 1 mil lion was deposited in a Chicago bank. The FBI traced the letters by fingerprints to Lewis. The Tylenol poisonings led to safer packaging acts for over-the-counter drugs. The movie E.T., The Extra-Terrestrial grossed $300 million in the first six months. The movie's director, Steven Spielberg, was quoted as saying, I wanted a creature only a mother could love. Barney Clark, the first human to re- ceive an artificial heart, died in March, 112 days after the operation. Clark, 62, was considered too old for a natu- ral heart. At the time of the operation, he was suffering from degenerative disease of the heart. Spring rains brought flooding to the Mid-west. Farmers were forced to plant later in the season. The heavy rains followed a mild winter. Ranging from the World's Fair to a three-foot alien, all these events helped shape the years to come. by Joe Scgalski Senior Lora Martin Joleen Baack and Senior Chris Belding Bar Con Credit Union 1140 N.

Most students do manage to find the fad- ing lines, but there are those who do not. One thing's for sure, there is always room, whether students get to school early for a curb spot or park in the south 40.” Along with the many ways students park is the vareity of different cars in the student lot. In a sense, the lot is a museum of autos ranging from Senior Bruce Farrar’s Ford to Dale Blocher's Trans Am. 4 4 T f I could have any car in the world, it I would have to be a Lamberguine,” stated Sophomore John Halary. I'd like a Camero,” said Sophomore Candie Cornett. Getting a driver’s license is only the beginning. Along with the costs of upkeep, there’s costs of insurance, as well as gas, which ranges around $1.18 for regular and $1.23 for unleaded. Insurance rates for teenage drivers are expensive. Though students with a ”B” average in school who did well in driver's education do often times get discounts, the average student pays a cost of about $400 a year insurance. When a student becomes a senior he or she has had plenty of practice in parking in the student lot. by Joe Scgalski Dale Blocher arrived early enough to get a curb parking There is quite a variety of cars in the student lot, includ- space for his Trams Am. ing this sand buggy.

NASA plans to use the space shuttle concept in bringing science and industry together by means of a new reusable space technology. The Space Shuttle is only one of several important instances where sci- ence and technology have combined forces in order to bring about a better life on earth. Satellites are becoming increasingly important to both scientific investiga- tion and everyday life. Meteorological satellites are now used to predict weather accurately several days in advance. Com- munications satellites are now being devel- oped to handle the increasing amount of international communications. SARSAT (Search and Rescue Satellite) is a new con cept of communications satellite used for search and rescue missions in isolated areas. Nairgation satellites are aiding in long range transportation. Lands at 4. launched in July, 1982, is part of an impor tant satellite project designed to analyze the earth's environment, wildlife, plant life, natural resources, pollution, and land use. Susan Woods reassembles parts with a computerized lab. Perhaps the most impressive satellite of the year is IRAS (Infrared Astronomy Satel- lite) launched in January, 1983. Operating above the distorting effect of the earth s atmosphere, IRAS utilizes the infrared light wave lengths to analyze distant stars, gal- axies, and other astronomical bodies. In other areas of space and astronomy, the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial In- telligence) program was begun in March, 1983, and will utilize the latest available technology in order to determine whether life exists elsewhere in the universe. Hal- ley’s Comet, a well-known celestial body, was sighted for the first time in October, 1982, since its last appearance in 1911. The comet is still more than a billion miles away and will not be noticeable in the night sky until 1986. The largest black hole yet dis- covered was determined to be larger than the entire Milky Way Galaxy. The (Jnispace '82 conference was held in August. 1982, and discussions concerning the availability of space technology to developing coun- tries and a possible space war between the United States and the Soviet Union were made. In January, 1983, it was determined that the Indians of the American southwest were themselves astronomers and built an- cient observatories. The Space Shuttle Co- lumbia confirmed in November. 1983. through X-ray photographs a theory that the Sahara Desert was at one time a fertile area with extensive river valleys. Archae- ologists unearthed the Great Temple of the Aztec Indians of Mexico in August, 1982, and recovered many impressive artifacts. Meteorologists determined in July. 1982, that the relatively cool summer was caused by the eruption of the volcano El Chichon in Mexico in early 1982. The volcanic dust at one time covered over one quarter of the earth's sky. Medical achievements during 1982 and early 1983 were dominated by the transplanting of the first artifi- cial heart, the Jarvik-7, into patient Barney Clark during a 7 2 hour operation. Al- though Clark later died in April, 1983, the operation was a pioneering effort in the area of medicine and technology. Today, doc- tors and engineers are working to develop and perfect not only the artificial heart, but also artificial bones, joints, ligaments, eyes, and ears. Medicine is looking for ways to grow organs outside the body for eventual transplant, regulate body metabolism and 232 Inside Columbus exercise, and perfect the test tube baby concept. Medicine today is making advancements to develop cures for diseases such as can- cer. multiple sclerosis, herpes, and arthri- tis. Recently, medical researchers have linked the causes of cancer to genetics and diet. New methods of identifying and treat- ing cancer have developed. Microbiology is being used to explain some of the mechan- ics of cancer. Measles, a disease thought to be under control, became an epidemic at Indiana University early in 1983. Of all of the new drugs introduced in the period between June, 1982, and April, 1983, two — the starch blockers were marketed as a new type of weight loss pills until they were banned in July, 1982. Oraflex. developed by Eli Lilly Company of Indianapolis, Indiana, was marketed to cure arthritis until it was banned in August, 1982. Three important medical procedures and concepts developed during 1982 and early 1983 include the CAT scan procedure, the NMR procedure, and the teaching nursing home concept. The CAT (Computerized Axial Tomography) and NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) procedures are both used to analyze different body tissues and probe the mysteries of the human body, particularly the mind. The CAT scan is also used to detect body tumors. The teaching nursing home concept has been developed to enable health officials, physicians, and medical students of the academic sector to assist the elderly in a cooperative education program. Perhaps the smallest achievement in the area of science but one important to many East students began on March 15. 1983, when the Columbus East Science Club was formed. This club has the purpose of encouraging the enthusiastic quest for further scientific knowledge through students who enjoy the study of a most remarkable subject. by Jim Edwards Jan Rager works on reassembling part of a computerized lab. The computer analyzes test specimens for patients in just minutes. The modern equipment is used daily at the Bartholomew County Hospital. Roxanna Evans uses a sophisticated instrument which per- forms automated cell counts and provides a physician with other information used in diagnosing anemias, leukemias and other blood disorders.

Groups, Index rustration: East isn’t perfect, but As most people realize, school isn't all fun and games. Mo one is perfect and neither is East. Although some are satisfied totally, others have pet peeves caused by the system. Adjusting is the only alternative, since it’s impossible to take on the administrators and school board. On the other side, there were little, insignificant matters on hand that created problems. An inconvenience that sometime most stu- dents experienced was checking out materials for homework. In classes such as history other forms of information were used rather than just a textbook. This required identification. Problems arose when an ID was left in a locker or left at home. To check out that material, one would either get a pass to get a temporary ID, or cram the next morning. In this confusion, other problems escaped with ID’s left around a resource, or misplaced or stolen. To replace an ID, a student would have to go through a small photo session costing $ 1.50. This came out of the student’s pocket. Along with the mixed ID’s, one could also view our locker level skeptically. Although they were new lockers this year, some ap- peared to be faulty before Christmas break. Whether the sources were vandals was not important. The main issue was the personal values kept inside the lockers. Petty items such as pencils or money seemed to disappear from the combination-locked safes. Entering upon another case, the walls of cement block echoed the bareness of the ceiling and the doorless stairs. The restrooms became an issue this year. The vandalism of the years before led to a reconstruction of the restrooms. Signs of protest were exposed in the hallways proclaiming a person’s right to privacy in a restroom, for the idea was known as pathetic and sickening. Letters to the editor was printed in the Oracle, but in time the problem later diminished and was almost forgotten. Always there are changes and reorganization. The school li- brary, which began the year on the second floor, was completed and positioned in the Commons area. This improvement took much construction and time, with help of faculty, workers and students. The getting ready for freshmen changes also resulted in the renovation of the second-floor resource center that added several new classrooms. With the entire school shifted, a volunteer group of faculty, students, and others planned a new system for the pupils. The planning led to the use of the orange pass. For a student to go Athletes and PE students dealt with the frustration of no gym floor when school started. Sophomore Amy Stone checks out the clock while working to complete an assignment before class. As the science aide, Mrs. Kent Hunt tries to deal with the frustrations of the resource area. 246 tries to be Fire drills were usually more frustrat- ing for teachers than students who en- joyed getting out of class. The pressure of pork judging afflicts John Stafford, Yvonne Willhite and Senior Beth Syl- vester. Junior Connie Newkirk gri- maces in frustration during the bus ride home. anywhere in the school between passing periods, one was required a pass announcing time of departure and time of arrival. Another idea was the no talking in the Commons area. They (the faculty) are keeping me from something that doesn’t harm anyone, and I still get my work done, stated Junior Kathy Kent, who doesn't agree with the system. It’s also frustrating not to be allowed to go upstairs for help without a pass. Towards the end of the year students took out frustrations with the artistic endeavor of writing on the Commons carpet. Many found it a pleasurable experience, so they kept up with it until the carpet had become so invested with graffitti that one could hardly sit down without sitting on someone’s artwork. The first day of summer vacation the carpet was torn out leaving only the hard, cold cement. The list could go on and on, with really no answers to these problems. High school itself is somewhat frustrating to cope with, but when looking at the other alternatives, the problems no longer seem so drastic. Around all of these misfortunes East has the right to be proud. by Marge Goodwin aking what’s inside really count The year before had been the year of discussion; this year was the year of change and action. With renovations rooms were moved and changed. Hardly anything looked the same from Au- gust to May. The library was moved in December and the entire second floor took a new look. Even though changes and construction continued around us, we went on with school as usual, doing our work and socializing with our friends. In true Olympian style, we had achievements to celebrate from cross country and swimming titles to the summer sports stars on the track and baseball teams. Sophomore Rachelle Roberts put both women and East in the history books with her 800-meter run title at the state track meet. For the first time since 1952 an athlete from Columbus won a state track title; for the first time ever that title was captured by a woman athlete. The baseball team kept Olympians in the news with a second trip to the semi-state on June 18. Swimmers Dale Etnyre and Pam Hayden, who were on the state championship swim team this year, continued making headlines as swimmers in the Sports Festival at Colorado Springs. Troy White was East's third athlete at the Sports Festival. He played on the men’s volleyball team. In sports, academics and extra curricular activities we learned giving 100 percent from inside, made success easier. This year’s ALTIS staff worked to make this book an example of just that. It requires having a staff willing to work hard and make sacrifices. We had that type of staff this year. Each staff member worked on a specific section of the book. Even though we worked on our own pages, put forth our own integrities, we did it all to make the inside of this ALTIS truly count as a valuable record of school year 1982-83. You helped to make that task easier by giving your best for us to photograph and write about in this book. In the design of the book we included the endsheets to continue telling the story of our year. In this way we utilized 100 percent of the book, just as you use all your resources when it really counts. When you want something to be the very best, it’s what’s inside that counts.

Students celebrated the end of school tossing papers on the floor before rushing out of the building. State swimming champions admire the new sign proclaiming their success when it really counted. 248 Closing The year closes rapidly with lessons we have learned to make us better individuals the rest of our lives. We cherish memories with friends in favorite places, award-winning moments and times when we knew the community sup- ported our every goal. Just as Walt Disney's dream of Epcot Center became a reality for guests to enter Future World and venture back through time to the dawn of history, each of us has the future to create unique achievements. Afterall, it's what's inside each of us that counts. INDIANA COLLECTION
