THE 1971 CRYST ALITE CRYSTAL CITY HIGH SCHOOL CRYSTAL CITY, MISSOURI VOLUME 20 DEDICATION The Class of 1971 proudly dedicates its yearbook to Mrs. Wil- ma Reddick-an individual who has given so much of her time to personally assist the students of CCHS. We hope that this token of gratitude can, in some small way, thank and repay Mrs. Red- dick for her invaluable service. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY...............5 SENIORS.................................14 JUNIORS.................................26 SOPHOMORES..............................32 FRESHMEN................................38 SPORTS..................................44 ORGANIZATIONS...........................69 ACTIVITIES..:...........................84 ADVERTISING............................105 Friends, EDITOR'S MESSAGE This was the year that was for the Class of ’71 just as last year was the year for the Class of ’70 and next year will be the year that was for the Class of ’72. There are 720 days of school from your freshman year to your senior year, but to quote Joni Mitchell: . . something’s lost but something’s gained in living every day ..It seems that all we ever consider is that which we lose those 720 days, but we should strive to realize the many things we gain over those years, whether it be learning how to find the vertex of a parabola, how to execute a crossblock, or accomplishing gains in civil rights. The treasures we acquired during our four long years will follow us the rest of our lives, coming in handy here and there, and we’ll look back and realize just how much was gained here at C.C.H.S. I hope that in the years to follow, this book will help remind you of the assets of character, the good times, and the friends you made here, so that you will be a better person the rest of your life. Good luck.

End of the end and beginning of the beginning! Four thousand-three hundred-and twenty hours of sweat, tears, hopes, and fears—going, then gone! Mixed emotions a heart brimming with joy, abounding with life; a heart empty and sullen, burnt out. At long last. Freedom! Freedom from tests. Freedom from teachers. Freedom to be what you are; freedom from being made to play the part of something you aren’t. Freedom, after a short eternity, to enter a New World. Alone, the mind gravitates toward greater honesty. Lying in bed, counting the cracks in the ceiling-alone. Driving, eyeing the black-white-black-white ribbon as it snakes toward infinity—alone. Listening to the radio, as some poor soul releases an outpouring of his bluest, truest emotion alone. Even as you gaze upon the stars that stare with baleful eye at that infintesimal being which is you, realization takes place. As long as others exist, as long as love exists, as long as you exist-and love-you cannot possess absolute freedom. Your absolute freedom is your loved ones abject slavery. There exists a plane of existence between free and slave; between the extremes exists a mean upon which humanity’s civilization exists. Find it.

They baffle parents, worry teachers, scare freshmen, and confuse one an- other. Juniors are sixteen-first car, first prom, first real freedom, and perhaps first love. One step down but two steps above. Terrible storms rage in their minds and bodies only to ebb and wane with the passing mood. Twisted and distorted shapes out of which, somehow, a senior is made. Lisa Ussery Mark Vaccaro Debbie Vance Terrie Voelker Roberta Weible Steve White Charles Whitehead Greg Wolk Don Womack Teenager was coined to describe Juniors, the typical adolescent American, who rises in three years to work, to matriculate, or to fight his country’s wars. No one can quite figure them out, but no school would be the same without them.

Sibyl Visnovskc Marty Vogt Linda Weiss Celeste Wester Connie White David White Susan Whitehead Vicki Wigren Ronnie Wilkins Jerry Williams Mike Williams Cindy Wilmoth Pam Wilmoth The task of these 14-year-olds is to mature, to grow in experience, to gain wisdom, to take from our school and ultimately, to give of themselves so that when June, 1974, comes and goes, part of them will remain as part of every class remains and becomes the past, the tradition for future, timid, green, and uncertain freshmen to build on. 43 SPORTS SCENES “Between the indifferent and the protester, we find a marvelous creature called an Athlete. His species is variegated. He comes in different sizes and . . . colors . . . speeds, uniforms, abilities, and hair styles. But all have one thing in common: they give 100 percent all of the time. Athletes can be found everywhere—in the classroom ... locker room .. . gym . . . dugout . . . thick of a game . .. love, in church. Other Athletes respect them, mothers fret over them, fathers boast about them, coaches hope for and believe in them, girls drool over them, fans can't believe them, officials try to control them. An Athlete is made of wondrous stuff. He has the ... steadiness of a diamond cutter... muscles of a blacksmith ... speed of a striking cobra ... calculation of a computer . . . reflexes of a leopard . .. touch of a surgeon . . . endurance of a rumor . .. heart of a giant ... the faith of a saint. SPORTS EVENTS To his teammates, an Athlete is a hard worker ... unselfish ... trying to improve, modest, generous . . . and understands the meaning of teamwork. To his coach, the Athlete is a fine clay to be molded-a boy to be guided into manhood ... a body to be cared for, a student to be taught, a dream come true. To himself, the Athlete is never good enough, would be nothing if not for his teammates great efforts, aware that he’s an example to others, the reason his team lost but never the reason it won. The Athlete believes in .. . Ruth, Mantle, West, Alcindor... But most of all he believes in God. An Athlete is Spirit drenched in sweat. Courage in cleats. Sacrifice in sneakers. Heart huffing at the end of a mile run. Dedication with dirt on his chin, and Loyalty with a smile on his face. The Athlete is a wondrous being ... the epitome of Americanism and sportsman- ship. by Furt Willeford (taken from SCHOLASTIC COACH, April, 1971) QUEEN AND HER COURT The 1970 Homecoming Dance and Crowning concluded the weeks festivities.

HORNETS UNDEFEATED CONFERENCE CHAMPS The Hornets won their fourth conference championship in eight seasons this year. It was their third year for being unde- feated in conference play. The Hornets nine wins this year boosted our eight-year record to fifty-four wins, fourteen losses, and six ties. We were the first and only team from Jefferson County to qualify for the State Playoffs. The Hornets succumbed to a fine South Shelby squad 14-12. Coach Arvel Popp, going into his twenty-third year of coaching at C.C.H.S., has com- piled one of the finest records for a high school coach in Missouri. Assisted by Dick Cook and Rodney Mills, Coach Popp hopes to improve his record more next season with a promising group of this year’s juniors and sophomores. In the picture above Coach Mills squats on the sideline and watches his teachings win. Coach Cook stands to Coach Mills’ right as Coach Popp observes from down the line.

BASEBALL 1971 ACTION RECORD The Hornet baseball team finished the sea- son with nine victories and four defeats. Three of the four losses were to the Fox Warriors: 5-2 in a non-conference game, 1-0 in a confer- ence game, and 1-0 in the championship sub- district game. The other Hornet loss was to league champion Northwest, 3-2. The Hornets were second in the league and second in tourn- ament play. Hornet victories were over Festus 8-5, 6-5; St. Pius 9-5,4-1; DeSoto 12-7,2-1; Windsor 11-0; Herculaneum 9-4; Hillsboro 4-2. 1971 ROSTER The 1971 Baseball team members are as follows: First row, left to right, Tom Almany, Tom Hill, Jim Smetzer, Dave Weiss, Greg Pusateri, Don Patrick, Steve Dinolfo, Tim Wolk, Bob Spicer. Second row, Morley Swingle (Student Manager), Steve Biehle, Chris Edwards, Rick Collier, Fred Runzi, Bill McKee, Mike Henson, Raymond Hughes, David Govero, Greg Wolk, Coach Rodney Mills.

The members of the 1971 A-team track squad are as follows: Bottom row, L to r.: Kevin Skaggs (student manager), Terry Pigg, Kurt Grass, Mark DeMent, D. J. Byas, Danny Denton, Bob Whitehead, and Coach Cook. Top row: Dave Kozal, Phil Tessereau, Dave Buckner, Larry Joergens Greg Wolk, Jim Reiner, Steve Biehle, and Ed Duren. The Crystal City High School trackmen posted some impressive victories throughout the season, and although they did not win any major meets, the boys who were entered did exceptionally well. The Hornets had no people entered in certain events like the pole vault, but they ripped the dashes and the hurdles and occasionally showed sparks in the distance runs. The cinder- men and their coaches, Dick Cook and Paul Browning, are looking forward to even more success when they get a track to practice on. Pictured on the right is the record-breaking 880-yd. relay team consisting of, from I. to r. Steve Biehle, Curt Grass, D. J. Byas, and Greg Wolk. SENIOR VARSITY CHEERLEADERS Each year a number of girls participate in the competition for cheerleading. It begins with a strenuous week of try-outs which leads to the final judging and selection of the new cheerleading team. This year the varsity cheerleaders, as shown above, are: Brenda Pigg, Cindy Hess, Rhonda Byas, Nancy Church (capt.), Micki Crain, Pam Ruess, Bobbie Weible, and Judy Bone. During the 1970-71 year, these eight girls fulfilled such requirements as attending a summer cheerleading clinic at Illinois State Univ., cheering at every game during both football and basketball season, and organizing each pep assembly held during the school year. 66 SR. AND JR. SQUAD CHEERLEADERS In the spring term of each year, a number of freshman girls attend a cheerieading clinic sponsored by the senior varsity cheerleaders. At this clinic, the girls are introduced to the various jumps, motions, and tumbling skills essential in all cheer routines. They are given a number of weeks in which to perfect these skills. At the end of the clinic, the girls are called upon to display their abilities in competiton. The faculty, senior varsity cheerleaders, and class officers name the five girls accumu- lating the most points as junior varsity cheerleaders for the upcoming fall term. In the second photo are the junior varsity cheerleaders: From left to right: Marcia Linderer, Michele Rosener. Karen Grahm, Audrey Brown (capt.), and Judy Aubuchon. 67 POMPON GIRLS One of the newest additions to our entertainment groups at CCHS this year are the very lively and spirit-rousing pom- pon girls called the Hornet Honeys. This group includes from left to right: Jackie Downs, Junior; Terrie Bunting, Senior; Carla Knigge, Senior; Pam Kyle, Senior; Jan Graham, Junior; Cindy Smith, Senior; Kay Wilkinson, Sophomore; Gloris Lucas, Sophomore; Carolyn Dill, Junior. Terrie Bunting, a senior, is the captain of the Hornet Honeys, and her co-captain is Jan Graham, a junior. The Hornet Honeys were organized by Terrie Bunting and Cindy Smith. They spent many long hours during the school year and summer, working up original routines to perform for half time entertainment during football and basketball season. They have performed in pep rallies and helped lead the football Hornets to victory by rousing the spirit of the stu- dents. They are shown in the above picture entertaining at the half time of the Crystal City Fox Basketball game and by their presence prove that they are responsible in gaining school spirit. 68 CLUBS ORGANIZATIONS Floats, dinners, singing, whatever; fun was the by-word this year as the students joined in various Hornet activities. Extra-curricular organizations posted a busy schedule of events, making 1971 a whirl-wind of student projects and participation. A crawling green dragon, homemade tacos, the Hornet- Hill Mob, county contests, a mountain of cans, speeches, inductions, and a fortune in dues-bring back any memories of those crammed 12:10 meetings? The following pages depict the various Gubs and Organizations composing Crys- tal City’s “other self. 69 MAJORETTES Top Left: Drum Majorette for the 1970-71 Marching Season was Roxanna Vance, a Senior.

A hard working, well oriented Student Council this year again rendered its vitality and numerous abilities to service for the community, stu- dent body, and school administration. Council members sparked the Christmas spirit this year by hosting a Christmas dance in which students and faculty participated in everything from popping balloons to bouncing footballs. Above left-It took a great deal of teamwork and a bit of caution for student participants to Unwind the Twine amid shrieks and squeals of laughter. Pitching cards proved to be a lot harder than it looked. Even the largest box never seemed quite big enough to catch straying cards. Above right-To fulfill its aim of bringing together the community, student body, and administration, the Council, under the direction of the Elks Lodge, sponsored a canned goods contest. The Sophomore class placed first in the contest with the Freshman class running a close second. These canned goods were distributed during the Christmas season to the needy of our community. 76 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Front row, left to right: Cathy Coleman, Trudy Price, President; Robert Whitehead, Vice-President; Darrell Sweet, Treasurer; Pam Griffin, Secretary; Rowe Snider, Helen Kiessling.

The responsibility is then put upon these inductees to uphold the principles of the N.H.S. Pictured here is Mr. Clinton Pope speaking at the Induction Ceremony. His speech added interest and sparked a cause in building a better future. Cathy Peterein. senior member, is shown lighting the candle of Leadership, preceding her talk given to the audience of students, parents, and teachers at the induction.

The Band, Chorus, Football, Track, Honor Society, COE, FHA, Mr. Marvelous, Speech Activities, pianists, even Mike Thompson’s careless attitude are portrayed as typical events of the past school year. 86 SPEECH ACTIVITIES The students involved in speech activities had a very busy year. Top left: The Debate Team of Rowe Snider and Dan Schunks was victorious at the District Contest held in Cape Girardeau. Top right: Jared Billings and Cheryl Rudloff dramati- cally interpreted Mark Anthony and Anne of a Thousand Days; Cheryl rated a “Superior” at District. Lower left: Joe Madison tried his hand at Radio Speaking. Karen Graham received a “Superior” for her stirring speech on Women’ Lib (right on!). Mi- chele Rosener was enchanting as she read poetry. Kay Wilkinson was delightful at Storytelling and Humorous Reading. Jan Graham received an “Excellent” rating for her Prose Reading at District. Lower right: Miss Markovich shows Kay and Karen how NOT to act. 87 110 IN THE SHADE RAISES THE AUDIENCES’ PULSE Miss Diane Markovich, director, straightens Starbuck’s handker- chief in dress rehearsals. Chorus members include: Seated; Sally Schwab, Kay Wilkinson, and Susan Bond. Second row: Wayne Biehlc, Frank Pruneau. John Heil, and the preacher. Joe Madison. Third row: Rowe Snider, Jan Graham, Rick Miller, Kim Jones, Larry Joergens, Michelle Rosener, and Cathy Coleman. “Kathy HulLand Steve Greer provide a lighter romantic touch, both doing excellent jobs.” “Roxanna Vance as Lizzie Curry is outstanding in the leading singing role and she and Jared Billings as Starbuck the “rainmaker” have some fine dramatic scenes.” “Dave McCrorey has one of the most pleasant singing voices of any sheriff we’ve heard. “Doug Fabick, Dan Schunks, and Steve Greer keep the story go- ing with plenty of laughs and conflicts in their efforts to marry off their daughter and sister.” ‘The chorus voices blend very pleasantly, especially in “Every- thing Beautiful Happens at Night.” “The story takes place in a western state from dawn to midnight of a summer day in a time of drought. Starbuck comes to town and promises, for a fee of S100, to bring rain. He also convinces Lizzie that she is beautiful and asks her to leave with him.” The copy for these pictures was taken from the review of the play in the January 15, 1971, Friday evening issue of the DAILY NEWS DEMOCRAT. STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTION AND INDUCTION The top row of pictures have effectively captured the confusion and chaos connected with campaigning for the Council of Crystal City High School. Petitions and posters, pauses and passes, praying and pleading for votes. Speeches in the spotlight, staring at the student faces, silence for de- cisions. Votes and Victories-discouraging defeats. All these and more were experienced by those students who suffered through those erratic, fleeting days of Student Council Cam paigning. In the bottom row, Cathy Peterein relinquishes her post as President to Dan Schembre; Steve Biehle recites the oath which establishes him as the new Vice-President. PUBLICATIONS The ’71 Publications Class pulled through the year with probably one of the most unique styles of Yearbooks ever to come out under the editorial leadership of Jared Billings. In addition to the Crystalite, Roxanna Vance’s Mirror Staff produced a monthly paper worthy of a Hornet’s nest. The new technique used is a modular layout design for which an appropriate cover was chosen. Hard work, rushed activities, snapshots galore, and the staff of Terrie Bunting, Karen Moss, Kim Jones, Mark Nickless, Pam Griffin, Kris Ulmer, Trudy Price, Curt Grass, Nancy Church, Cathy Peter- ein, D. J. Byas, Denise LeBoube, and Denise Lalumondier, made it possible. 9) AWARDS 1.
