EXCALIBUR ’84 emerges out of chaos Voices filled the seemingly minute room as this year’s new yearbook staff filed in, taking a seat where one could be found. With forty-eight enrollees, the staff was over twice the size of the pre¬ vious year, accounting for mass confu¬ sion and a tightly closed door. Busy learning layouts, cutlines, copy, and cropping with much enthusiasm, the group struggled through the class, at¬ tempting to put together a yearbook worthy of Crown Point High School. Deadlines were soon announced, with each student at work on an individ¬ ual assignment. Contrary to the usual classroom atmosphere, Excalibur buzzed with excitement and sometimes frantic frustration, as everyone pulled together, working for the one finished product unique from all the rest. Enthu¬ siasm mounted as the end crept closer with the yearbook almost completed. With never a wasted moment, time speeded up, the temporary stop of a busy, successful business grew near: a business with a staff of 48 members and one determined sponsor, Miss Eleanore Britton, all working together to create this year’s special theme, “We are C.P.” Jenny Eaton works on h ,r layout while preparing her final copy. Beth Bixeman, Kim lubbard, and Alexis Clark or¬ ganize sponsor a ' s for the business section. Anne Kivikangas and Kim Witten divide pages as Denise Bonnema practices layouts. Members of the activities and sports section (above right) are (bottom, row 1) Anne Nondorf, Tammy Lundell, Anne Kivikangas, Debbie Hanlon, Denise Bell; (row 2) Michelle Petrovich, Dawn Shuttz, Jennifer Eaton, Kim Witten, Michelle Ferrell; (row 3) Steve Nierman, Dave Wichowsky, Laura Schaeffer, and Denise Bonnema. Members of the business and photography sections are (bottom, row 1) Donna Burrell, Steve Ary, Alexis Clark, Beth Bixeman, Kim Hubbard; (row 2) Carla Sitzenstock, Jeff Sacek, Rob Peterson, Doug Suss, John Fairchild, and Jeff Nichols.

Staff of 30 compiles literary magazine A Windfall staff of approximately 30 students met after school to put togeth¬ er the school ' s literary magazine. With jobs, sports, homework, and other ac¬ tivities competing for staff time, the staff persisted in its efforts to produce a quality magazine. During first semester, contributions of poetry and short stories trickled in slowly. The editorial staff carefully weighed the merits of each contribution and decided which pieces met Wind¬ fall’s criteria for acceptance to its pages. During second semester as the staff began to receive more contributions, the magazine slowly began to take shape. Under the direction of Mrs. Lau¬ rie Likens, Windfall sponsor, and Mary Lopat, Windfall editor, the staff made decisions as to the number of pages to be included in the magazine and the choice of the cover and cover design. Meanwhile, the business staff contin¬ ued its efforts to sell advertising to help pay the printing costs of the magazine. After all the contributions were select¬ ed, the staff readied the copy for the printer. With layout, proofreading and photography completed, Windfall was ready to hit the presses. Once the staff had finished its final task, the selling of the magazine, the 1984 Windfall staff’s task was completed.
