The Baron Brigade band members await further instructions from one of the three drum majors dur- ing an after-school practice session. tC For Barons, the school year of ’85-86 was packed full of many experiences, some old and some new. Two of the newer programs were the Ski Club and the $.A.D.D. chapter. The new Ski Club members made seven trips to Swiss Valley, usually on Wednesdays. This exposed DHS stu- dents to cold temperatures while giving the opportuni- ty to “warm up” to new experiences. The S.A.D.D. chapter, Students Against Driving Drunk, sponsored by Mrs. Tita Gordon, started off on the right foot by having representatives chosen from each class. Also $.A.D.D. membership cards were avail- able to anyone interested. $.A.D.D. helped not only to control alcohol and drug related accidents involving teenagers, but it also offered recreation by sponsoring dances and taking trips. While most of us were basking in the summer sun, band members practiced to perfect their routines for competition. Practices helped because they placed tenth in the state. Also over the summer, the sign in front of the school was blown away by a wind storm. Eventually a new sign was purchased and installed where the old one had been. The commons also had several new additions. The north entrance had a new computer-controlled elec- tronic sign, and new vending machines for pens, pen- cils, notebooks, and snack foods were placed inside the commons. In this, the 1986 edition of the SABER, we hope that you will be reminded of what, in the future, might be thought of as “the good old days.” We also hope that this ‘pack’age of 86 will help those who weren't here with us to get a taste of what life was like in the Baron 86 Pack.

The DeKalb County Free Fall Fair aroused the interests of the Barons. Many showed their pride as they represented DHS in various ways. The Baron Brigade marched its way to the top, taking it all by bringing home the towering Sweepstakes trophy for best all- around band. Another DHS favorite is the Swing Choir. Their singing and dancing brought many Baron fans to the Court House lawn for Wednesday evening’s competition. It was DeKalb’s Swing Choir at its best in red and black at the fair. Two juniors were in the competition for the Miss DeKalb County crown. Kim Yates and Georganna Cobbs gave it their all in Thursday night’s pageant. For everyone else, the fair meant lots of fun and entertainment as they walked the streets of Auburn, enjoying all of the sights, sounds, and smells that mean its fair time in DeKalb County. 4 (Top) Tonia Wagner and Lyn Synesall don’t seem to _‘ Getting ready to leave his “dodge-em” car, Ron have won any prizes yet as they pause in front of | Snavley laughs as his work of smashing into other the ever-popular dart game. cars has brightened his day. FAIR @® 7 George, Emily Fall In Love On the nights of November 22 and 23, the DHS auditorium was opened for the presentation of the play Our Town. The play’s setting is in Grovers Corners, New Hampshire, at the turn of the century. It was written by Thornton Wilder and first performed on Broadway in 1938. The play centers around the two main characters, George Gibbs and Emily Webb, who have grown up together and soon discover they love each other. The play deals a lot with life’s potential and the way that hu- mans handle their own lives. The produc- tion was well directed by Mr. John Wil- son. The cast of Our Town was as follows: Stage Manager, Michelle Shuman; Howie Newsome, Todd Bishop; Mr. Webb, Matt Bowers; Mrs. Webb, Georganna Cobbs; Emily Webb, Jenny Griggs; Wally Webb, John Bry; Dr. Gibbs, Rod Sibery; Mrs. Gibbs, Heather Charlesworth; George Gibbs, Dennis Blaker; Rebecca Gibbs, Tonya Gaunt; Professor Willard, Carolyn Bertin; Mrs. Soames, Lynn Brown. Other cast members included Lorin Brigle, Bruce Buttermore, Cherie Davis, Lori DePew, Mike Hoffelder, Anne Locke, Jeff Martin, Andy Miller, Audi Rader, Kim Schlosser, Tracy Stuckey, Todd Webb, Leslie Whittington, and Rod Williams. Dennis Blaker and Jenny Griggs rehearse their parts as George and Emily discussing their future while enjoying an afternoon at the soda shop.

FALL PLAY EEKEN When The Good Times Roll Friday through Sunday is a 58 hour holi- day for Barons when they can accomplish such things as homework, catching up on sleep, partying, or just cruising the strip. You'll see anything from a 1950 station wagon to a 1986 convertible ’Vette. But for some Barons the weekends include further sources of excitement: for in- stance, work, athletic practices, and the ever-traditional just enjoying the out- doors. Work means different things to differ- ent Barons. Some spend their time work- ing in the fields on their farms, while others mow their yards or shovel snow from their driveways, depending on what season it may be. But for other students, it means working at Ponderosa, McDon- ald’s, Richard’s, and even Tom’s Donuts. Some Barons couldn’t bear the thought of staying away from school, so they also attended school on Saturday. For most, weekends were spent for friends and fun. Although they’re not al- ways the good times, they'll always be the best of times. April Blevins, right, is literally up a tree trying to remove decorations left overnight by a few visiting friends.

WEEKENDS ® IR Special Days Spark Baron Spirit It’s fun to be a Baron and many stu- dents showed their Baron spirit in several different ways. Sophomores showed their pride by buying class rings and jackets. Others supported DHS by dressing up for such occasions as Hawaiian day, army day, and gangster day. Dress-up days are not the only days that sparked spirit. Convocations also brought about some interest in the stu- dents. Campus Life presented a couple of convos: a musical group in the fall and a multi-media show in early spring. Other convocations were held to rec- ognize various student groups. Such ac- tivities as fall, winter, and spring sports, cheerleaders, the speech team, and the band brought an abundance of awards to Mr. Fites’ doorstep. He received these awards with a smile and a “Yea, rah, Fri- day! One of the spirit days that was held throughout the year was gangster day.

These dances usually came about after a football or a basketball game. DeKalb’s victory sparked success at the Homecoming dance where Pat Phil- lips and Susan Ware reigned as king and queen. It was an evening of fun and ex- citement as the court and their fans danced through the night. Another highlight of the year’s dance calendar was the Christmas formal, spon- sored by the German Club. Barons dressed in their best for ‘Christmas Ele- gance” to show the world that they really do have class. Todd Bishop and Katarina Sehm reigned over this dance. Informally speaking, a favorite was the Sadie Hawkins, where hillbilly gals took their guys to the hitchin’ booth.

Presents were exchanged and the spirit was spread throughout the building. Many students and their dates attend- ed and enjoyed the traditional Christmas Formal on Saturday, December I4. They danced to the music provided by Sound Barrier. “Christmas Elegance” was the smashing theme of the Formal sponsored by the German Club. Todd Bishop and Katarina Sehm were the couple of the evening as they were announced King and Queen. The music department presented a special concert for the community on Sunday, December 15, and portions of it were later presented to the student body. Many other groups got into the Christ- mas spirit. The Brigadiers performed a special show at basketball halt-time. FEA members brought snacks for the teach- ers. Student Council members decorated the Commons, and the foods classes pre- pared a very special Christmas dinner. More food was available in the main of- fice as staff members brought in enough snack food for several tables. Santa Grams were delivered to students before Christmas break.

CHRISTMAS @ |7 AD Convo Leads To New Club- John Reed brought tears to the crowd of DeKalb students and faculty members. The convocation started the DHS chapter of SADD. Mr. Reed and his wife spoke of what happened to them and those around them when he drove drunk and tragically killed little one-year-old Natalie. It was the beginning of SADD (Students Against Driving Drunk). The group got off to a fast start. Head- ed by Mrs. Tita Gordon, SADD estab- lished a hot line for prom and graduation and also started SCS (Students Caring for Students). Broken down into three levels, SCS started with students seeing other students during a study hall to talk about the problems of using alcohol and drugs. The second level of SCS was one that had SADD members associated with drug and alcohol troubled clients of the Northeast Center. Lastly, the third level had 18-year- old or older SADD SCS members receiv- ing three hours of instruction from the Northeast Center’s addiction councelor, Linn Lambert. It wasn’t all work and no play. On May 17 many of the SADD members went to Cedar Point to spread the SADD spirit by wearing their SADD buttons. Plans were also put in motion for a trip to New York in the following year. Another SADD tra- dition was begun with the senior break- fast which was held April 25 at Ponder- osa. John Reed not only brought out the im- portance of combatting drinking and driving. He also brought a great new or- ganization to DHS. Top: It wasn’t easy to talk about, but John Reed told Barons what happened to him and his family when he got behind the wheel of his car after drinking.

A C Groups Help Students Grow Junior Achievement and Campus Life have come a long way here at DeKalb. Each has developed the idea of bringing knowledge to the students and having fun at the same time. Campus Life brought both of its annual convocations to the high school. This year’s Mousehole group, Sideshow, rocked the Barons out of class for a mag- nificent performance. After viewing Si- deshow at school, many DeKalb students were seen at the Mousehole clapping their hands and having fun. The other great show Campus Life presented was “The Prize.”” The show, displayed on three screens, impressed everyone with the music and messages that it gave. Junior Achievement has given to many students the knowledge of running a small business. JA was brought about through the help of sponsoring companies such as Dana, Rieke, Cooper, and Magna- vox. These corporations help young Ju- nior Achievement groups get off on the right foot. Working hard to produce their own perfect product really paid off. A few of the JA members even got trophies for their efforts. ee Both Campus Life and Junior achieve- ¢ | ment have brought knowledge and fun to —— many DHS students.

REA The lure of tropical palms, sandy beaches, and warm weather can be felt in this scene from one Baron's Spring break trip to Hawaii. way Lands Beckon After the long tedious months of win- ter, most students and staff anxiously looked forward to the annual phenom- enon known as Spring Break — a time away from school and a time, for some, to go to some place where warm weather had already arrived. Two groups of students did just that. Campus Life took several bus loads of area students to Florida for the week. There they enjoyed the sandy beaches and such tourist attractions as Disney World. Eleven members of the Spanish Club also went south — to Mexico. There they enjoyed the sights, sounds, and tastes of a different culture as they com- bined learning with having fun. Many other Barons went on trips with family or friends to destinations includ- ing Florida, Texas, North Carolina, Ha- wail, California, and Mexico. Others stayed closer to home, traveling to such exotic spots as Ft. Wayne or Indianapolis for shopping trips or staying home to help out with spring cleaning. Whatever the activity, Spring Break was a welcome break from the books for everyone.

[MUSICA South Pacific Entertains Audience The spring musical South Pacific was a raging success. The action of the musical took place over a two-week period during World War Il on islands in the South Pa- cific, hence the musical’s title. It deals with a young American nurse, Nellie For- bush, and an older French planter, Emile de Becque, falling in love. Another plot has a young Tonkenese girl, Liat, falling in love with a US Navy lieutenant, Joe Cable. Students playing these parts were Pam Witmer, Dirk McKown, Dawn VanAllen, and Chris Franks. Practices and rehearsals ranged from 4 to 6 PM or 7 to 9 PM Monday through Thursday and an occasional Saturday all- day practice. The prolific effort put forth by the cast of over 50 students was re- warded by a standing ovation on opening night. The stage crew created a smooth pro- duction with lights, curtains, and espe- cially the exquisite props.

Getting ready for the prom is usually an all-day event. Exceptions this year were SAT’s and Baron baseball. After the family pictures were taken and the “Good-bye’s” and “Be careful ’s” were said, the couples were off. Some went to eat at various restaurants around the area, and others who were “running late” went straight to the prom. Welcoming the couples that attended, the DeKalb Middle School was overflow- ing with elegant gowns and stylish tuxe- does. The Grand March lasted a full 30 minutes during which the couples were formally announced to all onlookers. “A Night in Heaven” was just that for all who attended. The Middle School was recreated into a beautiful silver, blue, and white room with fountains at the en- trance and down the side wall. The enter- tainment was “Music King,” which is the first sound system ever used at the prom. The night ended with activities such as bowling or the movies and, in a few cases, parties took place to announce the end of a fun-filled evening and the complete suc- cess of “Prom.” Lisa Carnahan, Chris Straw, Thom Smith, and Jill Zimmerman use their table favors to toast the prom’s success. a Elected by members of the senior class, Katarina All that dancing can make a person hungry and Sehm and Todd Bishop, left, were selected to be thirsty, so these prom goers are making a visit to Prom King and Queen. the refreshment table.

NE AR Talent Goes On Display asia sf mansion Bsn nsonrte Products of the wide variety of cre- ative talents in our school went on display on May I6, 17, and 18. Those were the dates for the Fine Arts Show, an annual event. Students spent most of their class time Thursday in the gym setting up the displays so that their “masterpieces” would look their best. All of the art classes, photography, graphic arts, and home economics had products on display. The music department also took part in Fine Arts Weekend. On Friday night, the auditorium stage was the setting as all three choirs performed songs they had been working all year to perfect. Saturday evening the show was moved to the commons, where an evening of jazz was provided by the Jazz Band and the Jazz Choir. The audience sat at ta- bles, refreshments were served, and a dance floor was available for those who felt so inclined. The weekend was capped off by a band concert on Sunday after- noon. Setting up displays requires both thought and work. Left, Kim Buckles contemplates her next move while, below, Stacey VanZile and Kim Souder work on their display.

Once again, the family and friends of the nineteenth graduating class of DHS found a good use for the programs handed to them by the ushers — as fans. The traditional ceremony, held at 2 P.M. on Sunday, June |, began with the processional played by the Symphonic Band and the graduates slowly entering the gym. Following the Invocation by Kim Schlosser and a special prayer by Sheri DeWitt, Missy Gehl extended a warm welcome to everyone attending. The band then played “Novena,” and Tom La- verghetta presented the Intention. Principal Fites presented the class and read the class roll as members of the Board of Education, assisted by Superin- tendent Watson, presented the diplomas. There were 222 members in the graduat- ing class. Erin Record, accompanied on the piano by Darren McKown, sang the class song “Old and Wise,” followed by the Farewell by Gates Hoham and the Benediction by Jenny Griggs. After Mr. Fites declared the class graduated, they confidently marched out of the hot gym and into the future. 36 © GRADUATION ¥¥ = ad ef: i f Top: With the class motto behind her, Missy Gehl presents the Welcome to everyone attending the graduation of the Class of '86.

Art included everything from Drawing and Painting to Crafts; from Ceramics and Sculpture to Photography; from Commercial Art to Jewelry; and from General Art to Art History. Art students used these classes for a way to express their individual creativity, imagination, and artistic abili- ty. Art students were always busy working on various art projects. Art played quite an important part at DHS. The office areas had the work of art students hanging on the walls. The hallways were also filled with paintings, drawings, and pictures. The commons was decorated with impressive paintings. The big event of the year for art students was the Fine Arts Show in May. All the students kept their projects and set up their displays in the gym to look like a big art gallery.

For Barons taking business courses, this most likely meant that they were interested in some type of a busi- ness career. Courses available were Business Law, General Business, Introduction to Computers, Business Math, Of- fice Practice, Typing | and II, Accounting | and Il, Short- hand I, Bookkeeping, and Personal Typing. A new course was offered for seniors who had taken the Intro to Com- puters course. This class was Advanced Computers. The chairman of the business department was Charles Barnum. Other teachers were Richard Boyd, Julie Bunch, Gary Hillabrand, Karyl Penix, and Barb Oneal. Barons taking mathematics classes may have done so in order to continue building their knowledge in math or they just needed the credits for graduation. Courses for these students included Math | and Il, Pre-Algebra, Algebra | and ll, Trigonometry, Analytic Geometry, Geometry, and Col- lege Math. College Math was popularly known as Calculus. Math department chairman was William Moree. Other teachers were Charles Bassett, Dennis Fleming, Marilyn Gearhart, Chris Helmkamp, and Jan Michael.

DHS’s Main Goal: Communicating Lb) uy) —_ OD Zz x axl Z Li) = O Lo ae N a 7) Zz Ld s everyone knows, the number one priority at DHS is communicating. It is an everyday event to read and write: thus, the need for an in-depth study of English is mandatory. Every student was required to take four years of English. Our teachers brought us knowledge of grammar and literature. Courses ranged from literature to speech and composition and basic, standard, and aca- demic English classes. A new class this year was English 12 Basic. It was up to the teachers to make English fun and exciting. A field trip to the opening of the new county jail did just that. It made for an excellent assignment for Mrs. Walton’s composition classes. Many students feel the need to communicate not only with their friends around school, but also with people from other countries. Foreign language classes taught were German, Spanish, and French. Each foreign language had a club and some students also had a pen pal from a different country. Like English, many foreign language classes took field trips. These trips included those taken to Fort Wayne to watch a play performed in another language. These English and Foreign language classes bring about better communication between friends, teachers, and oth- ers including those from other countries.

While Phys Ed aids in the important physical development of the students, Quest exposed them to the problems thay may face emotionally and helped them understand those problems. Driver’s Education, a book class required of all fresh- men, covers the do’s and don'ts of driving. Guest speakers included Judge Charles Quinn and Prosecutor Paul Cherry on drug and alcohol-related driving accidents. The direc- tor of Cameron Hospital, an alcoholic, came to relate his experiences with drinking and driving and its hazards. Driver’s Ed also demonstrates safety procedures one should take before starting the car. The class observed a safety inspection of a car and a tire-changing demonstra- tion. Health, also required of freshmen, revolves around the study of diseases, drugs, and other types of problems that affect society. Phys Ed, required of all sophomores, gives them a chance to stay in shape while having a good time. While helping to develop the body, it also helps to develop one’s mind.

Both categories are under the supervision of department chairman Robert Voelkel. Vocational classes are discussed on pages 50 and 5I. Teachers in the Industri- al Arts area included Tony Konieczki, Don Myers, Van Smith, Jim Murdock, Bill Snavley, and Steve Ritenour. There are four basic areas included in Industrial Arts: metals, woods, drafting, and electricity. Power mechanics and basic graphics are also considered to be Industrial Arts classes. In metals, if a student finishes all three metals classes, he will be familiar with all of the five basic areas of metal working: welding, forging, sheet metal, machine shop, and foundry. Three years of electricity classes are also taught, with a one semester class called practical electricity avail- able for those who wished just a brief introduction to the field. Three courses are taught in the area of woods. Since there has been limited space for the last two years, Mr. Myers had to bus his two morning Woods | classes to the middle school to use the facilities there. Besides Drafting I, Il, and Ill, architectural drafting gave its students experiences in drawing a complete set of plans for their own “dream house.” SLUV TVIALSNGNI Right: The building trades house, a three-bedroom ranch on Allison Boulevard, gets a coat of primer paint from senior Jeff Shearer.

Included were auto mechanics, graphic arts, vocational agriculture, and build- ing trades. Mr. Van Smith taught his auto mechanics students how to service automobiles as well as how to rebuild engines to help them in the future if they wish to get a job as a mechanic or for them to be able to know more about how to care for their own cars. The graphic arts students, under the guidance of Mr. Jim Murdock, learned the various phases of production in using the offset printing method. They printed the school’s newspaper as well as tickets and programs for school events. Mr. Dave Gurtner taught the vocational agriculture classes. Ag mechanics, which involves farm machinery, teaches both maintenance and repair of all kinds of farm machinery. Other agriculture students learned about near- ly all phases of farming and farm management. Building trades students get really practical experience by actually building a house. Under the expert direction of Mr. Peter Potts, two classes — each three hours long — learned all aspects of construction. The 1986 house was built on Allison Boulevard in Auburn.

The Social Studies depart- ment included both elective and required courses. Elective courses were Psychology and Advanced Psychol- ogy, along with Sociology, Contemporary Affairs, and Ex- ploratory Teaching. Juniors must take U.S. History, taught on academic, standard, and basic levels. Seniors must take two required one-semester classes: Economics and Gov- ernment. In the Social Studies department there was one new teacher, Steve Longfellow. Dale Hummer, Bill Jones, Niles Walton, and Judy Eisenhut, the department chair- man, had all taught here in the past. In the Science department the teachers are chairman Richard Barber, Galen Beachy, Tita Gordon, Tim Koehl, Gerry Moreland, and Brad Snyder, who all teach different classes in the Science department. The classes are Chem- istry | and Il, Physics, Biology, Human Anatomy and Physi- ology, Micro-Biology and Ecology, Physical Science, Earth Science, and Life Science.

They start- ed practicing in the July heat, sometimes from 8:00 in the morning to 4:00 in the afternoon, to prepare for their parade and field performances. Besides several local parades, they appeared in the Bluffton Street Fair parade, where they placed first. They also received the Sweepstakes Trophy for their perfor- mance in the DeKalb County Free Fall Fair Grand Finale parade. They also received a first place rating for their efforts in the Decatur Callithumpian Parade contest. The Baron Brigade’s field competition results included a seventh place rating in the class B division of the Mid- State marching band contest, fifth place at the East Noble Band-O-Rama, second place in Class B at the Norwell Invitational, a first division, third place finish in the ISSMA district and a first division, fifth place finish at the region- al. The biggest one of all was going to ISSMA state compe- tition in Class B and receiving tenth place in the state. Drum majors for the year were Darren McKown, Dusti Dangler, and Mindy Stackhouse.

For the concert season, band students were divided into two groups: symphonic band and con- cert band. Both met during fourth hour in the two rooms of the music hall. Then members of the two groups were combined together to play for graduation. The band de- partment was under the supervision of band director Mr. Dick Karkosky, assisted by Mr. Richard Norris and Mr. Kevin Campbell. The bands took part in several concerts during the year including the Christmas Concert, the Pops Concert, the Spring Concert, the Springfest (the first annual all-school music festival) and the county band festival. Both bands took part in the ISSMA Festival, where the symphonic band received a first division rating and the concert band received a second division rating. Kelly Brown, a member of the symphonic band, had the honor of being selected for the all-state band. Nearly twenty band students joined together to forma special group called the jazz band, which practiced entire- _ly after school hours. In the ISSMA festival they also re- ceived a first division rating.

The Show Choir, also known as the Classic Connection, appeared at the Bluffton Street Fair, the Bellmont Show Ch oir show, the DeKalb County Fair, the Elmhurst Jazz Festival, the North Side Jazz Festival, the Western Michi- gan Jazz Festival, the Center Grove Show Choir Invita- tional, the Wisconsin Jazz Show, and the Northrop Show Choir Festival. They also took part in the Christmas Con- cert, the Spring Concert and the Springfest, and the Baron Revue. At the ISSMA Show Choir contest, the Classic Connec- tion received a first division rating. They also got a first division in the ISSMA concert choir contest. Jazz Annex, the jazz choir, was also busy, going to the jazz festivals at Elmhurst, North Side, and Western Michi- gan. In the ISSMA jazz contest, they received a perfect score along with their first division rating.

After many hours of practice, the choirs were ready to take their show on the road. Both groups performed at the Heimach Center in Auburn. The Concert Choir went there in the fall, while the Chorale Choir appeared there in both the fall and the spring. Both groups also took part in the Christmas Concert, the Springfest, the Spring Concert and the Baron Revue. Both also took part in the ISSMA contest, where both received a second division rating. It was the first time ever for the Concert Choir to compete in the contest. Many choir students took part in the state Solo and Ensemble Contest in Indianapolis. Of the nineteen solos that went to state, twelve received a first division rating. Also, 47 people were involved in various ensemble groups.

There was only one regular-sea- son loss, but that loss was to conference foe New Haven, which placed DHS in third place in the NEIAC. It was the first year for a sectional format in the state play-offs. Playing in Class 4A, the Barons defeated Culver Military at Culver, but lost to state pow- erhouse Bishop Dwenger the following week, The defense was especially strong all year long, keeping the opponents down to 102 points while more than doubling that mark with a total of 252 points. The Barons outplayed their opponents both offensively and defensively. DHS ran 3200 plays compared to only 1647 for the opposition. They averaged 5.8 yards per play, averaging 320 yards per game. At the same time, the “bad guys” aver- aged only 3.6 yards for 167.4 yards per game. Rick Endsley, a junior, assisted DHS with his total carries being 249. Endsley rushed for 1530 yards, averaging 6.2 per carry, with the longest being for 76 yards. Endsley also scored 19 touch- downs. Quarterback Todd Myers completed nearly 43 percent of his passes for 525 yards. Mike Cochran headed the defense with a total number of 1 41 tackles, 55 of them being solo tackles. A number of Barons were tapped for all-NEIAC honors. Selected for the first team were Brian Raub, center; Nate Brace, offensive guard; Todd Myers, de- fensive end; Scott Vian, defensive back; Rick Endsley, running back; and Toby Refner, offensive tackle. Selected for the conference second team were Mike Cochran, linebacker; Jim Wilson, defen- sive line; and Denny West, defensive back. Rick Endsley was also named the area Prep of the Year and was named to sever- al all-state lists. Top: Running back Rick Endsley (2I) takes off for one of his long gainers.

The junior varsity volleyball team end- ed their season with a record of I2 wins and 5 losses. Throughout the season Marni Coleman had the highest serving percentage at 92% and Linda Cobbs had the highest number of kills. Missy Lock- wood had the highest server reception percentage, which was 81% for the sea- son, and Tina Menier ended her season with the highest number of assists in set- ting. Although losing the Westview JV Tourney, the team ended the season quite well. The freshman spikers nearly split their season with an 8-9 record, taking part in both the Prairie Heights and Homestead Tourneys. Beth Aschliman led in setting and as a back court defensive player and Candy Rodgers was the second leading setter. Spiking leaders were Lori Pomeroy and Tisha Yarlot, while Shelly Rugman was the leading server with Jenny Tutwiler in second place. The reserve football team finished with a 5-3 record with 4 of those wins being shut-outs. The reserve team scored an average of over I4 points per game, while their opponents averaged just 10. Person- nel on the junior varsity squad varied from week to week depending upon how much varsity playing time the players had experienced. An admirable attempt was made by the freshman football team with a 2-6 season record. Perhaps the highlight of the sea- son was the |2-0 shut-out of cross-county rival Garrett. The victory over East Noble wasn't decided until the last play of the game, a very exciting finish. Brett Hen- derson, the team’s quarterback, was also an excellent safety. Todd Walters made significant plays on the offensive and de- fensive line. Top: Jeff Griggs leads the way as Frank Souder carries the ball for the freshman football team.

For the third straight year they won the Eastside Sectional. They ad- vanced to the Ft. Wayne Regional and played New Haven, winning by scores of 15-Il and 17-15. In the regional finals they played number 10 Ft. Wayne North and lost in a hard-fought battle by scores of 9- 15, 16-14, and 4-15. ; Leading for the Barons in serving was Diana Cserep with 4l0 attempts and 92 aces. Laura Carroll and Machelle Joseph led in spiking kills with Carroll having 243 in 520 attempts and Joseph having 163 in 384 attempts. Leading in perfect passes were Diana Cserep and Linda Conrad. Cserep had 154 perfect passes out of 294 attempts. Conrad had 137 perfect passes with 240 attempts. In setting, Amy Denni- son led the Barons with 1033 perfect sets in 1356 attempts. The leading blocker was Laura Carroll with 232 attempts. The only low point of the season was when they went to the Concord Invita- tional. They lost their first game by scores of 12-15, 17-15, and 14-I6. They won their second game by scores of 15-13 and 15-13, but lost their final game with scores of 4-15, 15-2, and 16-18. However, for the Lady Barons, that was no problem as they made a fast recuperation and won I7 of their next 19 games. Setting records for the Lady Barons were Diana Cserep in serving, Amy Dennison in setting, and Laura Carroll in blocking. The Lady Barons set 6 team records: in serving 378 aces, in spiking 710 kills, in setting I6I3 attempts and II85 perfect sets, and in blocking 484 attempts and 131 stuffs. The 27 matches won and 58 game victories were also new school records. Making First Team All-Conference were Machelle Joseph and Amy Denni- son. Making Second Team in the confer- ence were Linda Conrad and Diana Cserep. Machelle Joseph goes up high for another one of her many kills as number | Amy Dennison looks on. Both were named to First Team AIl-NEIAC. VOLLEYBALL ® | - Bonecutter, Till Named AII-NEIAC sen Des SS ES eS Another winning season (12-5) was re- corded by the 1985 edition of the Baron tennis team, although they finished only sixth out of eight teams in their own invi- tational tournament. Held in early Sep- tember, the DeKalb Invitational was won by Norwell, with Jay County and East No- ble in second and third places. Senior Todd Webb had the best finish for DHS in that tourney, with a second place finish at number three singles. Having nearly identical season records were the three singles players for the Barons. At number | singles, senior Doug Bonecutter was 13-7. Junior Jim Till at number 2 was 12-7 as was senior Todd Webb at number 3. Bonceutter was se- lected to the first team in the conference and Till, the second team. Youth and inexperience were problems for the doubles teams, where personnel was shifted around through much of the season by Coach Tim Koehl in an effort to find the best possible combinations. Un- derclassmen Gregg Lockwood and Jamie Bonecutter finished the season as the number | doubles team. At number 2 dou- bles were first-year players Steve Warner and Chad Miller. At season’s end, the Barons made it to the finals of the DeKalb sectional until losing to West Noble (I-4).

From their se- lection in the spring until the end of bas- ketball season the next year, these girls are usually busy either preparing for per- formances, making signs to post around the school to boost spirit, or actually per- forming. In the summer, the varsity and reserve squads attended a National Cheerleading Association camp at Indiana University, where the varsity received one excellent rating and four superior ratings. In the final competition they placed in the top six out of 55 squads. The reserves had two excellent and three superior ratings. The Baron cheerleaders also brought home a spirit award for showing out- standing spirit throughout the week of camp. In the fall the cheerleaders hosted a cheerleading clinic of their own, with ele- mentary students from the school dis- trict in attendance. In addition to boost- ing spirit on a district-wide basis, the clinic was also a money-making project for supplies and new uniforms. All three cheerleading squads did their best to see to it that all football and boys and girls basketball games at all levels were covered, in addition to a number of games or meets in other sports. Their spirit and enthusiasm did much to uphold the tradition of Baron Pride. Varsity cheerleaders in action: Above, they perform a mount, and left, Missy Gehl leads the crowd ina chant. CHEERLEADERS ®@ 75 ww Warner Leads Team an With 462 Total Points If they had been playing horseshoes instead of basketball, the varsity boys team might have done better. But in bas- ketball “close” doesn’t count. They beat all of the teams they needed to beat — with one exception — but not at the right time. They needed to beat Belmont in the conference tourney to make it into the final game, but didn’t. The following week, they beat New Haven, the NEIAC tourney champs, in a regular season game. The victory against Bellmont near the end of the season should have earned co-champ honors for the Barons, but they had stumbled the week earlier against Columbia City, so their conference finish was a tie for second place. In sectional play, the Barons made it to the finals to play host-team Garrett, whom they had defeated earlier, but this time they lost. The Barons’ offensive average was 66.1 compared to 6I for their opponents. They also outshot the opposition. In field goals, the Barons shot for 47.6 percent com- pared to the opponents’ 41.3. In free throws, while the “enemy” scored 62.8 percent of the time, the Barons were sinking 75.1 percent of their charity tosses. Senior Steve Warner led the team in several offensive categories. He scored 462 total points (averaging 20 per game) with 188 field goals and 86 free throws and had I49 total rebounds and 46 steals. Senior Jeff Lint led the team in free throw percentage (nearly 84%) and as- sists (124) and also had 45 steals. Jon Seiss was tops in field goal percentage with subs Post-season honors were given to Steve Warner, who was named to the first team AII-NEIAC. Jeff Lint and Jeff Ladd were selected to the second team in the conference. Using one of his many unique shooting styles, Steve Warner (32) lets one go toward the basket. Warner scored 462 points for the season and was the only Baron selected for the first team in the NEIAC. 16 © varsity Boys .

The reserve squad won 4 and lost 6, while the sophomores — after a terrible start — worked themselves up to a 6 and 5 finish. Perhaps a highlight of the sopho- mores’ season was their 33-32 overtime win over Northrop. There were several keys to the success of the freshmen. The team had depth and lost nobody to serious illness, injury, or being moved up to the junior varsity. They also gained experience by practic- ing against the sophs. The leading fresh- man scorer was Jason Smith, averaging 15 points per game. Four more players aver- aged about six points a game: Brett Hen- derson, Brian Henderson, Troy Sollars, and John Ulm. As a team, the freshmen shot 45 percent from the field and 60 percent from the line. Sixty-nine was a key number, as Brett Henderson had 69 assists and John Ulm pulled down 69 re- bounds, but Troy Sollars led the team with 19 rebounds. After a slow start, the sophomores won their last six games, to end up over 50 percent for the season. Losing two games by lop-sided margins, their offensive average was 38 compared to 41.2 for their opponents. Leading scorer among the sophomores who played in most of the games was Greg Lantz, with a 10.3 points per game average. Although he played in only two sophomore games, Bruce Fuhrer had an outstanding 9I percent free throw average, hitting 10 of Il from the line. The junior varsity team, which had a 4- 6 record, finished 6-2 against NEIAC op- ponents, to lead the conference, and they also won their own holiday tourney.

They came back to take their revenge in the final game of the season and beat Columbia City 56-39 to win the NEIAC regular season championship. It was time for the DeKalb sectional. After suffering a sectional loss the pre- vious year, the Barons were really fired up for this year’s tourney. In the first game they beat Angola (for the third time) by the score of 63-37. They then went on to beat Woodlan 6-39. Hamilton was their 5I-39 victim in the champion- ship game. The next step for the Barons was the Ft. Wayne regional. They beat New Haven in the first game 60-45, advancing to the final game. In a hard-fought game they lost to the Northrop Bruins in double - overtime 52-55. The Bruins then went on to win the state.

GIRL RESERVES ® 83 5 ° ° awn Senior Leadership Brings Success If senior leadership has anything to do with it, the gymnastics team should have been outstanding in 1986, since nearly half of the team was composed of seniors. The team was quite successful, with a season record of 9-6, equaling the 1984 school record of most wins in a season. It was truly a team effort, although gymnastics is usually thought of as an individual sport. Three school records in team event totals were broken. On the floor, a new high of 25.45 broke the 1984 mark of 24.35. The new vault record was 25.15 (25.13 in 1985), and on the bars a total of 23.55 was scored (23.10 in 1985). The team also managed to score in the 90's three times: against Carroll (91.75), New Haven (90.75), and North Side (90.60). However, only one individual school re- cord was broken in 1986. Ann Kelley broke Carole Miller’s 1985 record of 8.30 on the bars when she scored 8.55 at the section- al to take first place. At the East Noble sectional, the Barons placed third behind East Noble and Leo. Doing well individually besides Kelley on the bars were Carole Miller (first in vault), Denise Blomeke (fifth on beam), and Anne Myers (third on beam). The team also placed third at the NEIAC meet, this time behind Homestead and East Noble. In that meet Carole Miller placed second in vault and Denise Blo- meke was fifth on the beam. Another third place finish was scored at the Lo- gansport Invitational, a new meet for the Barons in 1986. Voted honors in the conference were Ann Kelley and Carole Miller, both named to the NEIAC second team. Standing in line during the national anthem before a meet, the gymnastics team members display var- ious emotions as they anticipate the coming compe- tition. 84 © Gymnastics GYMNASTICS: Front Row: Angie Bishop, Ami Wine- brenner, Alison Morgan, Candi Kaldy, Nancy Well- man.

Eight of the thir- teen varsity wrestlers had winning re- cords. Those with losing records were mainly underclassmen who often had to go up against much more experienced wrestlers from the other teams.

His season record was an out- standing 28-7, second best on the team. Heavyweight Jim Wilson, a junior, whose season record was 24-7, was the third Baron who qualified for the semi- State. Other wrestlers who had winning sea- sons were Doug Aschliman at 105 pounds (15-9), Todd Moran at 138 pounds (15-13-1), Don Steele at 155 pounds (24-6), Nate Brace at 177 pounds (17-8), and Rick Ends- ley at 185 pounds (8-7). Senior II2 pound wrestler Keith Pepple, right above, circles his opponent before moving in for the take- down. Pepple’s season record was 3l-5-I. Wrestling at 132 pounds, senior Rod Williams starts with the advantage over his Bluffton opponent. Both Williams and Pepple went to the state meet, where Pepple finished in sixth place. WRESTLING ® 87 w Baron Diamondmen Have Winning Season After getting off to a not-very-promising 6-6 start, the baseball team got its act together and didn’t finish its season until June 14, losing in the regional final game to Ft. Wayne Snider 6-3. The final season record was a very respectable 24-Il. Their 6-2 conference record was good enough for a tie for second place in the NEIAC. For a brief time, Baron fans were having visions of post-season glory. In their sec- ond game of the sectional, the Barons defeated East Noble, who they had lost to earlier in the year and who had been ranked I3th in the state. They then won the sectional with an 8-O defeat of Ango- la. But the tourney trail ended the follow- ing week. After defeating Elmhurst, they lost to Snider in the regional finals. One outstanding aspect of the team’s success story was its pitching. With a team ERA of 1.347, there were five pitch- ers with an ERA of less than two: Chris Barnett (0.49), Jason Smith 1.06), Chris Straw (121), Tim Murdock (1.49), and Tim Williams (1.65). The pitchers allowed only 4 home runs, struck out 198, and walked 95. Chris Barnett had the best record with eleven wins, two losses, and one save. Chris Straw (5-4, 2 saves) struck out 74 and walked only I8 batters. The team batting average of .287 was not especially spectacular, but the bats often seemed to work well when they were needed most. Balance seemed to be the key, as nine players contributed to the team’s 30 home runs, led by Mike Coch- ran with five. Regular players with aver- ages over .300 were Denny West (.400), Phil Stevens (.338), and Brad Jones (.333). Tim Murdock had a .357 average in 28 times at bat. Jones and West also topped the team in on-base percentage (.484 and .456) and runs scored (28 each). West was also tops in stolen bases (20) and RBI's (27).

Perhaps the key element in this suc- cess story was the pitching. The com- bined pitching staff compiled an out- standing earned run average of I.9 and walked 48 while striking out 124 batters. Two pitchers tied for the most wins with 4-O records: Tim McKean and Jason Smith. Five pitchers with winning records had an ERA of less than two: Tim Williams (0.0), Bruce Fuhrer (1.12), Jeff Reese (1.16), John Ulm (1.29), and Tim McKean (1.36). Offensively, the junior varsity squad had a batting average of .290, with sever- al having averages over .300. Of those players having 20 or more times at bat, the best hitters were Stu Allison (.429), Mark Harmes (.385), Phil Stevens (.381), John Ulm (.346), Bruce Fuhrer (,333), and Brett Henderson (.303). Although he had only I6 times at bat, David Oster hit a remarkable average of .625. The RBI lead- ers were Stu Allison with 17 and Bruce Fuhrer with 10. For hitting with power, Oster also deserves special mention, as half of his ten hits were for extra bases. Phil Stevens was the team leader in stolen bases with eleven.

This was true despite the fact that the girls had no home meets this year. Junior Gail Cain had another good sea- son, again going to the state meet in both shot put (third year) and discus (second year). She placed sixth in the state in shot with a school record toss of 41512”. Cain was the conference champ in discus and second in shot. At sectional she placed second in both events and at the regional she was second in shot and third in discus. She also set a new school discus record at 132'1”. Senior Ann Kelley also had a good sea- son, setting a new school record in the l0O0 meter dash of 12.6 seconds and anchoring the 800 meter relay team’s record-setting effort. Kelley wassthe conference champ in the 100 meter dash and placed second in the 400. She also had some outstanding personal bests in other events: 27.6 in the 200 meter dash; 61.77 in the 400 meter dash; and 16’10 3 4” in the long jump. Getting a late start because of injury, Linda Cobbs still did well in the high jump, going 5'2” more than once. She won the sectional in high jump and placed second in the NEIAC. Alisa Oberlin did a good job in the hur- dle events, with times of 15.6 in the 100 meters and 49.2 in the 300 meter hurdles. Alison Morgan also had a personal best in the long jump of just % inch short of sixteen feet.

GIRLS TRACK ® 93 Wallace, Van Wye Advance To Regional It was the last track season for running on the cinder track which had long beena disadvantage for Baron tracksters. As the runners looked forward to the ’87 season and better conditions, the only records set by Barons in ’86 were in field events, both set by Jon Seiss. A new C.E. Young Field record in the long jump was set at 2! feet in a meet against Carroll. Seiss also set a new school record in the high jump of 66%”, which earned him a first place finish in the Carroll Relays. It was a battle all year in the high jump between Seiss and Randy Wallace, who placed third in the Fort Wayne sectional with a jump of 6’3”. Seiss was tied for fifth with a 6’2” jump. Also placing in the sectional were David VanWye in the 3200 with a clocking of 9:45.5 for second place. A sixth place in the 800 was earned by Mike Schoudel with a time of 2:01.5. The Conference meet, held at Colum- bia City, saw two Barons earning first place: VanWye in the 3200 and Wallace in the high jump. Running on the cinder track, Joel Frymier heads for a win in the 100 meter dash against Carroll. Troy Sollars, left, placed fourth.

Their 14-3 record was the most wins in DHS history and they defeated all of their opponents at least once with the exception of the state powerhouse and conference championship Homestead team. They placed first in the Angola In- vitational, second in the DeKalb Invita- tional, and second in the conference. All of the varsity players had winning records, with the two doubles teams do- ing exceptionally well. The number two doubles team of Susan Payne and Linda Conrad had a 2I-I record, while Lisa Lock- wood and Amy Dennison were not far behind with their 20-3 record at number one doubles. The three varsity singles players also did quite well. Their records were as fol- lows: number one singles Jeannine Farrell (12-10), number two singles Shelley Rob- erts (13-IO), and number three singles Ni- cole Detrick (I2-7).

They did the best they could, finishing with an 8-8 record and sixth in the conference, after winning the NEIAC the two previous years. Gregg Lock- wood’s 8I on the Cedar Creek Golf Course qualified him for the second team in the conference. There were no seniors on the Baron varsity team. Gregg Lockwood led the varsity team through much of the season, averaging 42.7 in the nine-hole matches, followed by Jeff Martin (43.7), Brad Brock (43.9), Mike Houser (44.8), and David Spade (47.5). Brian West and Rod Sibery had the best averages for the reserve team, which finished the season with a 7-9 re- cord. With all of the top golfers returning the following year, Coach Russ Smith prob- ably looked upon 1986 as a wait-until-next- year season.

The first softball sea- son was not without its difficulties, but all-in-all it was successful, with the team compiling a winning record of seven wins and six losses. The Barons scored 156 runs compared to only 136 for the opposition. Although a full varsity schedule was played, there was only one reserve game, won against East Noble 10-8. Since softball is a relatively new sport on the high school level in northeast Indi- ana, most of the opponents were in either their first or second season as well. Weak pitching was in evidence in several of the games, and the Lady Barons took advan- tage. The team had a .42I batting average, walked 109 times while striking out only 51 times. Of the 173 total hits, 40 were for extra bases (25 doubles, |2 triples, and 3 home runs). Once on base the team pre- sented another problem, stealing 131 bases. For the inaugural softball season, home games were played at the Waterloo Ele- mentary School field under the direction of head coach Don Myers, assisted by Jeff Helmkamp.

The projects of the Ceuncil can be divided into three basic categories: mon- ey-making, money-spending, and service. In the area of money-making, several dances were spon- sored by the Student Council including the Sadie Hawkins dance in the fall, after-game dances, and the Party at Sea dance in the spring. Just before Christmas, the Council sponsored the Santa Gram project in which, for a price, students could send special messages of the season to their friends. The funds raised by the Council were spent to support a wide variety of projects. For example, donations were made to the Speech Team and Special Olympics, and new flags were purchased for the school’s flagpole. Other projects sponsored by the Student Council were the Bloodmobile, the toy drive at Christmas time, the intramural program, and Teacher Appreciation Day. Faculty advisors of the Student Council were Mr. Larry Piety and Mr. Harry Andes.

It’s true. However, the championship was not won by an athletic team. DHS’s state champ was Jenny Griggs, who won the Poetry event at the state speech meet. The entire team had a good year in 1985-86. They at- tended fifteen invitational tournaments and did quite well, placing first 3 times, second 2 times, and third 6 times. They also hosted two invitationals. At the IHSFA Sectional, the Baron team captured first place. They were the sec- ond place team at the regional, where nine Barons quali- fied for the state meet, where they placed eighth. State finalists were Kim Schlosser, Angie Metzger, and Jenny Griggs, with Griggs winning first place. Another highlight of the season was the special trophy the Speech Team received for outstanding achievement as a team, awarded at the NFL District Tournament. Also, Griggs, Nikole Woodworth, and Missy Gehl were finalists at the Bradley University Interstate Speech Tourney. Tom Laverghetta and Jenny Griggs were named as the team’s outstanding speakers for the year. The speech team’s executive council consisted of Gates Hoham, Sheri DeWitt, Angie Metzger, and Tom Laverghetta. Coach Ger- ry Nagel was assisted by Mrs. Jan Nagel and Mr. John Wilson.

Under the leadership of sponsor Mr. Greg Vick and president Amy Brown, the German Club took part in nu- merous activities, beginning with a trip to Europe in the summer of 1985. The club also sponsored a trip to Franken- muth and college scholarships for graduating seniors. To make money, the German Club sold concessions at football and baseball games. They also had the coat check during basketball season and sponsored the popular Christmas Formal. Officers of the club in addition to President Amy Brown were Steve Warner, Vice-President; Denise Blomeke, Secretary; and Kathie Harper, Treasurer. A major project each year for foreign language club members is the foreign language banquet. Held on Tues- day, April 8, the banquet was a chance to sample foods from other countries.

LANGUAGE BANQuET ® III Amy Brown lights the first candle to start the induction ceremony for new Honor SE. Society Among the more exclusive groups at DHS in terms of membership is the National Honor Society. It is an organi- zaiton that a person cannot simply decide to join and then become a member. Membership is based on the student’s being outstanding in the four qualities on which the Na- tional Honor Society is based: character, scholarship, lead- ership, and service. Juniors and seniors whose grade point average is high enough must apply for membership and supply references. Thena faculty committee evaluates the applicants. New members were initiated in a special ceremony held at Michael’s, with refreshments being served following the ceremony. Family members also attended the ceremo- ny. National Honor Society members were involved with several projects during the year. They acted as guides for the fall open house. They sponsored a Bowl-a-thon to make money for the club’s activities. Service activities included conducting a food drive at Christmas time and doing baby sitting for the Pre-School for the Handicapped. As a final event of the year, junior members acted as ushers for graduation. Officers of the National Honor Society were Steve Warner, President; Tom Laverghetta, Vice-President; Denise Blomeke, Secretary; and Michelle Tuttle, Treasur- er. The sponsor was Mrs. Paula Fike. Father Mel Herber explains to the new NHS members and their par- ents his interpretation of the four membership requirements: char- acter, scholarship, leadership, and service.

Below, Scott Dunn and Wayne Fry are ready to talk about the goat. Three clubs at DHS have “futures” planned for their members: FFA, FHA, and FEA. The activities and accomplishments of the Future Farm- ers of America are too numerous to include all of them. FFA members attended a number of conventions, confer- ences, and contests, including the national convention in Kansas City and a leadership conference in Washington, D.C. Among their better finishes in contests were a first in the county dairy judging, a seventh in the area in soil judging, and a seventh place finish in the District Leader- ship Contest, where Scott Dunn’s first place finish in extemporaneous speaking qualified him for the state. The chapter’s Farm Business Management Team placed sev- enth in the state and the chapter received a Superior Chapter Award from the state FFA. At the annual awards banquet Mike Grimm was named the Star Greenhand and Tim Rinehold, Star Chapter Farm- er. The officers are identified in the club picture on the opposite page. The sponsor was Mr. David Gurtner. Future Educators in Action was also busy. Club members got some practical experience by offering a tutoring ser- vice to students needing assistance. The Elfie program involved each club member being like a secret pal to 4-6 teachers. Teachers were also treated for special holidays and were honored at four after-school cake and punch sessions. Funds were also raised to award a scholarship to a senior member. FEA officers were Ann Osborne, President; Mindy Rob- erts, Vice-President; Andrea Vose, Secretary; and Terry Foster, Treasurer. The sponsor was Miss Judy Eisenhut. Future Homemakers of America was another active or- ganization. Members attended two district conferences and a state conference at Indianapolis. After raising some money, FHA donated dog and cat food to the Humane Shelter and visited it. They also helped the Christmas Bureau and the Preschool for the Handicapped. A new project was the Adopt-a-Grandparent program in which members visited the Betz Nursing Home twice a month. Officers of FHA were Janet Wiggins, President; Dawn Buss, Vice-President; Anne Scranage, Secretary; Brenda Barrand, Treasurer; and Loretta Albright, Historian. The sponsor was Mrs. Betty Stomm. FEA hosted after-school snacks for faculty mem- bers. Left, Candy Kessler and Mr. Niles Walton dis- cuss educational issues in the library.

Three clubs at DHS were designed for Barons with special hobby interests: Ski Club, Electricity Club, and Flying Models Club. The Ski Club was a new group formed by new faculty member Mrs. Jo Hamm. Members of the club made weekly trips every Wednesday to Swiss Valley Ski Resort in Jones, Michigan, as often as weather conditions were favorable. Officers of the Ski Club were Dusty Ousley, President; Dan Murley, Vice-President; Lisa Sauder, Secretary; and Tim Petre, Treasurer. The Electricity Club was for those interested in elec- tronics. Their major project for the year was designing and building a solid state burglar alarm. Officers were Tom Hire, President; Paul Dapp, Vice-president; Bruce Treesh, Secretary; and Brad Anderson, Treasurer. Their sponsor was Mr. William Snavley. Mr. Snavley was also the sponsor of the Flying Models Club. Most of their club meetings were devoted to instruc- tional sessions about building and flying model airplanes. They also went to a national conference in Toledo, Ohio, in April. Officers were Robert Maxwell, President; Brad An- derson, Vice-President; Brian Brown, Secretary; and Aar- on Hicks, Treasurer.

Hoey ciuss ® II7 118 © sricADiERS Briga- diers Adding splashes of color to the Baron Brigade’s perfor- mances was an energetic group of students called the Brigadiers. Selected after spring auditions, this energetic group devoted many hours during the summer to getting their routines learned to perform with the marching band for their field and parade performances. The brigadiers received first place in every parade that they marched in, a tenth place in the state at the Hoosier Dome, and were judged the best auxiliary at the Norwell Invitational. They also performed pre-games and half- times at football and basketball games. The popular Baron Revue was expanded to two nights so that more people could attend. Many students in the mu- sic department helped the Brigadiers present a very en- tertaining program. For the first time, eleven of the Brigadiers took part in the ISSMA auxiliary contest held at Tippecanoe Valley High School. All of the groups did very well, and the flag duet of Dawn Barth and Toni Traxler received a perfect score of 100. The Brigadier sponsor was Mrs. Karen Roark. Flag cap- tain was Tammy Barth, with Cheryl Hilkey, Toni Traxler, and Melissa Menzie as squad leaders. Captain of the danc- ers was Gail Harrold, with squad leaders Michelle Speer and Hattie Eckert. Michelle Shuman was the captain of the rifles. Appearing as Santa’s reindeer for a half-time show are Lisa Detrick, Melissa Menzie, Holly Morton, Chris Mason, and Lisa Fritz.

Letter- winners All students who participate in athletics at DHS are eligible to join the Letterwinners Club. The major project of this group ts to sell consessions during basketball sea- son at all boys and girls home basketball games. The prof- its are used to purchase various items needed by the athletic department. In past years, the group has provided such things as a port-a-pit for the pole vault and high jump. At press time, it was undecided what this year’s funds would be used for. Letterwinners earned points for working, and the top four point totals were awarded a special dinner in Ft. Wayne. The lucky winners were Cathy Wellman, Kathy Pfefferkorn, Nancy Wellman, and Shannon Shull. Letter- winner officers were Kris Sliger, President; Wendy Souder, Vice-President, and Jim Wilson, Secretary.

Team Helpers There are two groups of young ladies who are dedicated especially to giving help to two of DHS’s athletic teams: Mat Maids are helpers for the wrestling team and the Diamond Darlings give assistance to the baseball team. Of great use to the Baron grapplers, the Mat Maids attend all home matches and some away matches as well. They do all kinds of things, such as help keep score, collect admission, sell concessions, help set up for a meet, and, in general, give their support to the Baron wrestlers. Of equal importance to the baseball program are the Diamond Darlings. Their tasks are similar to those of the Mat Maids. The Diamond Darlings also sold raffle tickets on a portable black and white television radio. Without these two groups of young ladies, the wrestling and base- ball programs probably wouldn't be as successful as they are.

DIAMOND DARLINGS ® |23 Doing his student service work in the metals shop, Mike Womack welds a broken chair from the art room. Student Service Student Service work is a good way of learning about or improving one’s ability in several different fields to use in the future. Many students volunteer (or get drafted) to work for various teachers or in the office as student service work- ers. Students spend many an hour grading papers, copying worksheets, typing, checking out books, collecting atten- dance slips, and doing many other fun and exciting things. Students earn points for the hours that they work. They earn double points for working after school hours. Stu- dents get pins at the end of the school year. If a student earns 450 or more points during his or her stay at DHS, he or she gets a trophy. Mrs. Meschberger in the main office is in charge of keeping track of all of the points earned.

Saber, Shield Many hours are put in each year on the Saber and Baron Shield. Co-Editors for the Shield were Leslie Crager and Jodie Parrish. Their assistant editor was Laurie Brown. The Shield staff was composed of many other positions such as business manager, layout editor, advertising man- ager, feature editor, news editor, sports editor, art editor, artists, typists, photographers, and reporters. Mrs. Doro- thy Heminger was the sponsor of the Shield. The staff of the Saber, the DHS yearbook that you are now holding in your hands, put in many hours of work trying to produce a good yearbook. They sold ads, collect- ed money for yearbook orders, made lay-outs, wrote body copy, took, developed and printed pictures, and struggled to try to meet their deadlines. The sponsor of the year- book was Mrs. Kay Finchum. Both of these publications and their respective staffs did their best to keep the DeKalb Central community informed and enlightened about happenings at DHS.

INDEX ® JO5 A Baron” The Barons’ 1985-86 year was “packed” with many activities and accomplishments. For example, Jenny Griggs was the state champion in Poetry for the Speech Team, Keith Pepple placed sixth at state and Rod Wil- liams qualified for state for the wre stling team, and the girls basketball team made it to the final game of the regional before losing in double overtime to the eventual state champions. The volleyball team also advanced to the final game of the regional. The music department had its share of accomplish- ments. The musical “South Pacific” was a huge success, the Baron Brigade marched in the Indianapolis 500 Pa- rade, and the jazz and symphonic bands both placed in the first division at the ISSMA festival. Kelly Brown was named to the all-state band and the Baron Brigade placed tenth in the state in competition in the Hoosier Dome. As the school year came to a close, we started seeing progress working toward the coming year. Work was begun on the parking lot paving project, as well as the new all-weather track and the softball field. The Fine Arts show displayed the products of our talents, the Awards Day program honored many seniors with schol- arships to help with college expenses, and graduation brought to an end the high school careers of the Class of 86. In closing, we hope that these pages have informed you about life in the Baron '86 Pack. We have tired to share with you our successes and failures, our joys and sorrows throughout the year — in athletic competition, in the classroom, and in our everyday lives. With a bright blue sky behind them, the new Amert- can and Indiana flags purchased by the Student Council fly in the breeze on the school’s flagpole.

Below, Dan Ybarra is deep in thought as he works on his assignment. Many of us showed the Baron spirit of giving when the Red Cross Bloodmobile visited. Above, Brian Shanyfelt is checked by the nurse. The successful spring musical “South Pacific” enter- tained everyone.
