Number One The 1986-87 school year marked DHS’s Twentieth Anni- versary. And what an anniversa- ry it was! Our varsity football team brought home the honor of being Class 4A State Football Champions. Lady Baron athletes also con- tributed to the DHS success story. The volleyball and bas- ketball teams had outstanding years, both sweeping confer- ence and sectional champion- ships. Baron fans also showed their 1 spirit by earning the sports- manship award during the NEIAC girls basketball tourney. Of course, the famous sea of red was very much in evidence in the Dome on that glorious day in November. But that wasn’t the only area in which Barons showed their superiority. Miss DeKalb Coun- ty was a DHS junior. An out- standing number of Baron mu- sicians, artists, and speech team members took honors in area and state competition. All-day pep sessions, convos, dances, and parties drew the Barons together to make the 1986-87 year the best. We’re 1! Is there any other way to describe DHS? This year’s Saber will take you through the 1 year of DHS. Sophomore Tim Petre plays his trumpet solo during the Baron Brigade’s halftime performance at the Hoosier Dome during November 29th’s game.

On Novem- ber 29 the Barons beat the Franklin Central Flashes to become 1986 Class 4A State Football Champs. Talk of a trip to the Hoosier Dome could be heard from the players even before the sea- son started. After exciting sectional and regional victories and a_ nail-biting semi-state win, it was Hello, Indy! Here come the Barons. The week before was full of fun and excitement. Monday Coach Hummer fulfilled a promise by getting his head shaved in front of the student body. On Wednesday, the school said its final good luck to the team. Friday there was a community pep session. On Saturday, five buses and count- less cars drove down to Indianapolis, filled with excited fans, eager to get to the Hoosier Dome. Many students and their families made a week-end out of it. But perhaps the most exciting part of winning was the celebration after- wards. Sunday the team members were awarded their medals in front of the _Mr. Fites, wearing his red boa, speaks to the Many Baron students dance the hours away at community during the pep session on the Sunday following the championship game. Barons Enjoy Championship Season community. Dr. Watson then an- nounced that on Monday there would be a 3-hour “fog delay.” Teachers were given strict orders not to assign any work. After lunch, everyone went to the gym and danced to the beat of Sound Station. With the trophy case, the team pic- ture on the wall, and the banner in the gym, DHS will never forget the ’86 Bar- on football team, Class 4A State Champs.

Labor Day week-end, as usual, saw DHS turned into a gathering place for classic car lovers. The gym was used as the auction room since the new track sur- face prevented the use of the football field. Then the DeKalb County Free Fall Fair finally arrived on September 22. And it was just as entertaining as ever. i L- Be ir RO Directs apa tion was held inside the gym with the cars being driven through the east doors to a rotating plat- form. Duane Worman decided it was a little too sunny for him, so he is walking around the midway of the fair in his star “shades.” ACD Days were a special event at DHS. The auc- | Everyone enjoyed the crowded streets and industrial tents, the challenging games, and the fast foods. Many Barons gathered in the court- house square to watch the entertain- ment. The swing choir performed there one evening on the stage set up on the south lawn. It was also there that the Miss DeKalb County Fair pageant was held. Taking part in this event were two juniors, Jama Littlejohn and Lynn SE GS comme: tet Vom Brown. Lynn was announced as the new Miss DeKalb County. The Baron Brigade marched through the streets and finished first in their class and received the enormous sweepstakes trophy in Saturday’s big parade. The Mousehole, sponsored by Cam- pus Life, tried something new. They sponsored games and big-screen vid- eos for the entertainment of all.

Many students decided to go all out on their wardrobes from head to toe. Bar- ons wore different styles of jeans such as faded, ripped, bleached, shoelaced, and even overalls. This caught the at- tention of many people. All types of clothes were “‘in.’’ For example, knit pants of all colors, long sweaters, cropped pants, leather jackets, mini skirts, printed T-shirts, jumpers, and bleached or faded jean jackets. Spuds Mackenzie, a commercial party dog, was also another popular fad with his T- shirts, or other types of clothing. Some students were going with the moussed-up hair look resembling Bon Jovi, a popular rock group. The look for football players and some basketball players was shaved hair or flat tops. Swatches, fashion watches, entered our school with a big bang. DHS stu- dents wore different kinds and quanti- ties of these. With Hoosier Hysteria going wild students donned their I.U. T-shirts and sweats to show that 1.U. was number one with them before and after they took the NCAA championship title. All styles of Reeboks were popular with the Barons. High-tops, mid-tops, and just the regular shoes were worn by all students. Some people found it fascinating to wear their sneakers with- out socks or even shoe strings. But over-all, whatever the fad might be, students wore whatever showed their uniqueness. As it gets warmer, the mini skirts start coming out. Missy Bickel is one of the first girls to show her summer fever. Bringing our school a new type of trend, Cheryl Barhydt and Machelle Joseph wear their Hawai- ian shorts to show off their tans. 11 FASHIONS After partaking of too many Christmas “spirits,” these shoppers (Steve Crawford, Randy More- land, and John MacDonald) join voices in harmo- nious song.

The wide range of this vision was there for all to see as A Thur- ber Carnival was presented on the stage of the auditorium on November 6 and 8, 1986. The play, which consists of a series of sketch-like episodes, was performed by a large ensemble cast and directed by Mrs. Shelly Johnson and Mr. Kent Johnson. Dawn VanAllen to the Pet Doctor. Perhaps this one is about the fish with ears. Practice sessions began in early Oc- tober. Fueled by lots of pop and fast food, the cast spent most evenings be- tween Monday and Thursday, some- times until 10:00 or later, working on their lines and timing so that every- thing would be just right for the per- formance. The sketches, based mainly on Thur- ber’s short stories, were held together by zany sounds provided by a small mu- sical ensemble. In one sketch, Lynn Heading in their car for their weekly visit to town are Mr. and Mrs. Walter Mitty, played by Kim Yates and Chris Franks (top). Brown was the wife whose husband, Dennis Blaker, seems about to pull off her murder, but the episode ends with the wife about to turn the tables on her devious spouse. Other memorable sketches were entitled “Little Girl and Wolf,” “Casuals,” and ‘‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.” The play opened and closed with the entire cast on stage delivering a series of humorous and or philosophical one-liners. Musical bridges are provided by Mrs. Shelly Johnson, Thom Smith (in back), Aimee Allison, and Brett Browand. Tom Michael, on bass, is hid- den. 13 FALL PLAY Holidays Are Happy Days Kalb High School. Labor Day weekend was celebrated at the ACD auction and car show. Over Halloween the choir sponsored Halloween-O-Grams. Many students participated by paying 25¢ to 75¢ to send someone a message. The band celebrated Halloween by dressing up in costumes for the football game that evening. The cold and wintery weather Two days after Thanksgiving there was plenty to be thankful for, as the football team won the state championship. For Christmas the bands and choirs pre- sented a concert. Valentines Day was celebrated with Valentine-O-Grams, when students sent their girlfriend boyfriend a special message. The next holiday wasn’t cele- brated by everyone in the same way. This holiday was “Spring Break.’’ Some The holidays came and went at De- _—_— brought Thanksgiving and Christmas. students celebrated by travenae to Florida or some other warm place while others just stayed home. Easter landed at DHS and bounced right back out. Students celebrated on their 3-day weekend over the holiday. Finally the most long-awaited holiday arrived: SUMMER VACATION! All the students had big plans for their summer vacation when they made the big break until the next school year starts. All decked out for Halloween is freshman band member Scott Allison playing his trumpet during a halftime performance.

Another day of school. Students hurry through the hall to their lockers and then to their class- rooms so that they aren't late. During second hour the ever popular morning announcements begin with those attention-getting “bongs.” Then we hear Mr. Fites’ voice echoing throughout the school telling of com- ing events. Socializing at the lockers is a big thing in the halls since there is nowhere else to go. But some students make it a habit to take a trip to the assistant prin- cipal’s office. Falling asleep in class is another big thing at school. Teachers relax their students so much that it’s irresistable to lay your head down and catch a few 2’s. But this can also lead to trouble with some teachers. Daydreaming is another event that can lead to trouble. Many students find it hard to pay attention when there are so many other things to think about. When homeroom comes along, stu- dents start to wander. This is wide- spread within the school. Students feel that it’s time to meet up with their friends once again. Every day taking tests is somewhat a routine for many students. These students have various reac- tions while taking a chemistry test. During homeroom there are various things to do. Lisa Forrest, Steve Storms, and Cindy Jarrett choose to relax and enjoy an interesting conver- sation. So How Did Your Day Go? ‘ LI When noon rolls around, that means lunch for the Barons. Some students pack their own lunch while the rest risk their stomachs with the school food. Many students just buy chips instead of eating the nutritious lunches the cafe- teria offers. Sitting in the classroom waiting impa- tiently for the long day to end is very exhausting to many. But when 3:30 rolls around, the students are redy to go. They either go to practice, straight home, or somewhere else like their part-time jobs. Another day of writing reports. Layton John and Natalie Reynolds work hard at making their En- glish report good and complete. (below) 17 TYPICAL DAY Barons Show 1 Spirit Everyone likes to get out of class, and pep sessions did just that. They were held to recognize students involved in fall, winter, and spring sports. Extra ses- sions were held to encourage the foot- ball team as they advanced to state. Af- ter clinching the title, an all-day celebration was held, complete with music, dancing, and refreshments. At the winter sports pep session, a “battle of the sexes” took place. Five members of the girls basketball team and five male faculty members had a free-throw contest, with the girls win- ning. To get the students fired up and to give the guys extra support, a pep session was held before the sectional final. The cheerleaders performed a game-show skit, and a hot dog eating contest was held between the four grades and faculty, with the sopho- mores being victorious. Just as pep sessions raised school spirit, so did dress-up days. For “Red, White, Black beat Columbia City’’ day, those with the ten best outfits won gift certificates to Pizza Hut. Basketball sec- tional brought two more days. One was Hawaiian shirt day, and the other was ugly tie day. Most people wore the ug- liest ties and brightest Hawaiian shirts they would find. Even though these days were not very popular with all of the students, those who did dress up showed a lot of school spirit. man, Jim Wilson. wert —— Classes showed their spirit by decorating the walls of the commons during sectional week.

SPIRIT One disadvantage of getting to school late is the distance you have to park from the school, as these students found out. Getting ready to leave school, Rex Walker stops long enough to have his picture taken. Rex was one of many who rode motorcycles to school. Parking lot supervisor Max Shumaker stops to be photographed. Part of Max’s job was to watch for people leaving school unexcused. Some students treasure their vehicle so much that they park it far out in the last row and diago- nally, as Mark Mitchell does with his Jeep Rene- gade. 20 TRANSPORTATION Lined up and ready to take students home, the buses wait for the students to pour out of the school after their long day. Believe it or not, DHS students found many means of transportation to get to school. An unpopular way was walking. Very few students did this, but the ones who are fortunate to live next door didn’t really have much of a choice. Around 41% of our student popula- tion walk to their bus stops to ride the ever-so-popular buses. The big yellow chariots are mainly used by the fresh- men and sophomores rather than the seniors, who, along with some sopho- Another popular form of transportation was jacked-up trucks.

Trucks of all sizes are one way Barons got to school, such as monster trucks, the over-sized trucks, and just the reg- ular pick-up variety. When the weather gets warmer, the younger students get out their bicycles and pedal their way to school. Ten- speeds or even free-style bikes are eco- nomical and sometimes a bit chilly. There are very few who do this, but the tn Using one of his favorite forms of transportation, Bill Tucker rides his horse for the Horse Club in Saturday’s parade at the DeKalb Fair. ones that do, say they have enjoyed it. Another drafty ride is the motorcy- cle. Some students get out their dad’s motorcycle or even their own and cruise to school. But over the years, students are still depending on the most common and popular way to school, the car. Cars can be used during all four seasons, day or night. Some ar e spankin’ new, and some are on their last axle. 21 TRANSPORTATION Watching TV was popular with many Barons with MTV being near the top of the list. Below, Amy Vose enjoys her favorite movie, Top Gun. (age Dances held after the football and basketball games were popular. Below, Chris Hanes and Jenny Dietsch get into the music. Riding his BMX bike was a big thing for Dan Treace, who won the Indiana High Points Cham- pion title, a high point of his senior year. Filling customers’ orders is a regular part of Scott Culbertson’s job at the Dog Haus, where he often could be found in his ‘spare time.” ID SPARE TIME Saturday School was NOT a favorite spare time activity. Here, Randy Fox shows some “Unlucky Ones” his slides about EMS. What does your spare time consist of? Students of DHS found many ways to occupy their time when they were not at school. Part-time jobs were a big part of many of their lives. When the 3:30 bell rang, many students jumped into their cars and headed for work, where they spent most of their eve- ning. It was so much different for Diane Culler. She spent many of her nights roller skating. She skated for the Skatin’ Station and won state champ in her di- vision. At the Southeast Family YMCA in Ft. Wayne, Cheryl Barhydt practiced her swimming. She was on the team that finished seventh in the nation in the 4 x 200 relay. After school let out for Chris Klausen and Jamie Bonecutter, they went home, caught a couple of hours of sleep, and then headed for Ft. Wayne, where they had ice hockey practice. Dan Treace and Mark Healey had other things in mind, like BMX free- ““May I have your order, please.” Junior Tracy Smith seems to be enjoying her job at Kentucky Fried Chicken. style racing, which both of them were very successful in doing. Other Barons had other spare time interests such as working on their cars, listening to music, and going to movies, concerts, dances, and parties. There were even rumors that some worked on their homework. Whatever their activities, Barons managed to have something to do in their spare time. Hangin’ out is a popular Baron spare time activi- ty. These folks are relaxing as they watch a girls softball game on a warm spring day. 23 SPARE TIME Ruby Navarro starts to fill her paint tray so she Takashi Ishihara takes a break while practicing can begin her art ject in her drawi for his next track meet.

They all had exchange stu- dents at DeKalb. Kjell Christian Klausen, lived with the Mark Bonecutter family. Chris jumped right into the swing of things joining the boys tennis team and the yearbook staff. He also participated in various hockey leagues. Ruby Navarro came to DHS from Trinidad, Columbia. She lived with Paul and Regina Souder. Although she did quickly made many friends. She espe- cially enjoyed her drawing and painting class. Even though she came to DHS halfway into the school year, Ruby was able to go to the prom and take part in graduation. Patrick Bertrand gave DeKalb a touch of French culture during his stay with the Jim Grimm family. Like Chris, he played the tennis team. Patrick also was on the track team, participating in the 800 and 1600. He was also active in DEKALB GUEST ‘Exchange Students Invade DHS- What do the countries of Norway, not know English very OrUE Ruby ore Clap. as vice present: Patrick helped the club by giving them some interesting information about France. DeKalb also had a Japanese exchange student, Takashi Ishihara. Staying with the Dale Wildeson family, Takashi learned a lot about the American cul- ture. He was able to travel to St. Louis with the band, giving him even a better view of American life. Like Patrick, Ta- kashi was on the track team. He partici- pated in the 400 relay, 400 dash, and long jump. Chris Klausen returns a shot during a tennis prac- tice. Chris was on the reserve team and played singles. Keeping his pace as he rounds a turn, Patrick Bertrand hopes to place in the 1600 meter run at the Garrett track meet. Go, Takashi!

Those who attended the pro- duction of Meredith Wilson’s “The Music Man” on April 24 or 25 were moved back in time to experience that summer along with the residents of River City. Randy Moreland played Hill, whose original goal was to sell as many musical instruments as he could to the gullible townspeople and then skip town. Somewhere along the line, Hill met and fell in love with Marian Paroo (Pam Witmer), the librarian, and his goals changed. Eventually the work he did with the band had a beneficial effect on Marian’s younger brother, Winthrop (Matt Keller), and the townspeople de- cide that Hill is all right after all, and they all live happily ever after. The production was directed by Mrs. Shelly Johnson and Miss Marcia Ro- sene. The pit band was directed by Mr. Richard Karkosky, and the sets were designed by Mr. Kent Johnson. The production played to a full house both evenings and everyone went home knowing that they had en- joyed themselves after experiencing a River City summer. , ‘‘American Gothic’’ is portrayed by Michelle | Coleman and Fred Witmer during one of the play’s opening numbers called “lowa Stubborn.” Randy Moreland as Harold Hill listens as Jeff Heisler as Marcellus Washburn advises him to use the pool table to help his cause. 26 THE MUSIC MAN There may not be seventy-six trombones, but Professor Hill leads the new River City band to the delight of the townspeople. pene a a iempenseenne ii = Mayor Shinn (John MacDonald) tells the mem- bers of the school board about the two guys who stayed on the mat for 31 2 hours without moving a muscle.

The Junior-Se- nior Prom lived up to its theme by giv- ing 180 couples an unforgettable night. Junior Class members worked until late Friday night transforming the middle school commons into a pink and silver paradise. Each table had a silver rose, wine glasses, and memory books for each couple to keep. The Grand March started at 8:00, during which each couple walked through an archway decorated with Starting their evening in a romantic way, Dirk McKown and Holly Morton make their way to the prom in a horse and carriage.

When their dates took it off their leg, the girl had to put in on the guy, usually on the arm. Before and after the prom was almost as much fun as the prom itself. Many started by eating out at a nice restau- rant. Aferwards, there were late movies in Auburn and Ft. Wayne, bowling, and parties. Some went to Cedar Point the next day. The prom was an enjoyable evening for all — a night that was ‘Al- most Paradise.” 28 PROM Missy Hedderig and Tom Michael take their turn walking through the arch during the Grand March.

Students had a chance to bid on pictures of teachers that pho- tograpahy students took to display. Displaying Artistic Talents Sener ear The weekend of May 15-17 was packed full at DHS. This was the week- end for the Fine Arts Show. Many art works were on display in the gym. All of the art classes, photography, graphic arts, home ec, and woods classes changed the gym into a mini-museum. Thursday, May 14, many students spent the day putting up their displays for all of the community to admire. The photography class had a project to take Working carefully on her display, Lisa Strock sta- ples her pictures into an attractive arrangement. Many students worked all day Thursday setting ye pictures of all the teachers and then the pictures were auctioned off. The bids ranged from 50¢ to $25.00. Some art students demonstrated how to throw on the wheel for pottery class. Home Ec displayed their baby quilts and baby books. Along with art, music was performed over that weekend. On Friday evening, all of the choirs sang their best num- bers, including the girls choir perform- Abel watches. The Fine Arts Show included a pottery wheel demonstration.

On Saturday evening, the Jazz Annex and the Jazz Band performed Big Band music for a dance held in the com- mons. On Sunday, the Concert and Sym- phonic Bands performed their contest music. Afterwards, the band members received their awards and special rec- ognition was given to seniors as a slide show of a baby pictures was presented.

The friendship and memories will always last.” This was the motto of the graduating class of 1987. Their Com- mencement ceremonies were held at 2 P.M. on Sunday, May 31, in the tradi- tionally sweltering DHS gym. There were 243 members of the class. The speakers for the event were se- lected from among members of the class: Susan Payne, Invocation; Roger Helmkamp, Welcome; Jennifer Mad- den, Intention; Angela Metzger, Fare- well, and Jill Zimmerman, Benediction. The combined bands played the tradi- tional “Pomp and Circumstance” for the processional and “Wind River Por- trait’ during the program. The diplomas were distributed by members of the Board of Education while Principal Fites read the class roll. A special feature was the singing of The long-awaited moment comes as each gradu- ate marches across the stage to receive a diploma from a member of the school board. “No Tears” by Tom Michael and Pam Witmer, an original song by Tom Mi- chael. The class gave them a standing ovation. A new feature of senior week was the Senior Dinner held at Greenhurst Country Club on Thursday evening and attended by over 100 members of the graduating class.

Where Students Have A Voice Student government is alive and well at DHS. Through their elected rep- resentatives, all students had a chance to have a voice in the management of the school. The Student Council provided a forum for stu- dent expression. Although some would rather just grumble about not having their opinions acted upon, the Council tried to pro- mote the general welfare of the school. A major activity of the Stu- dent Council was to sponsor several dances throughout the year. Besides serving as money makers, these dances also helped to improve school morale. One special dance was held for the ben- efit of Dollars for Scholars and its scholarship fund. The council also sponsored a computer dating service for Valentines Day. The Student Council en- couraged the school to be more thoughtful citizens by sponsoring the November 18 visit of the Red Cross Bloodmobile, a toy drive in December, and a collection to help a local family which has been burned out. In early October, five council members attended a leadership workshop at East Noble to get ideas for the year. Attending were Jeff Rude, Kelly Stahl, Heather Sarbacker, Chris Hanes, and Tricia Sutton. At the end of the year, elections were held for the new Council and class offi- cers. Student Council spon- sor was Mr. Dave Branne- man.

Working Barons Earn Points Question: What’s the best way to get out of study hall but keep busy at the same time? Answer: Becoming a student service worker. Barons usually volunteer (or get drafted) to work for teachers or in the main of- fice or the guidance office. This is a great way to get to know a favorite teacher, learn responsibility, or to just earn some brownie points. Although brownie points may be awarded to some, Mrs. Diana Meschberger in the main office has a differ- ent kind of point system that is the official one. Points are given for hours that students work. Hours worked after school. count double. Pins are awarded to the workers for the many hours they put in. A trophy is awarded to each student who has earned 450 points or more during their high school years. Student service workers spend many hours grading and stapling papers, running off worksheets, and running errands. Their help is very much appreciated. 41 STUDENT SERVICE The NHS induction included a candlelighting ceremony.

This organization is one ir which a person has to earn membership. The four quali- ties which the NHS is based on are scholarship, charac- ter, leadership, and service. New members each year are selected by a faculty council from detailed applications submitted by interested ju- niors and seniors who meet the basic grade point aver- age requirement. The members were in- volved in different projects throughout the year. They sold senior shirts. These shirts had all of the seniors’ signatures written on them.

A bowl-a-thon was held to earn scholarship money, and several members volun- teered to make nursing home visits as a part of the service aspect of NHS. New members were in- ducted into the group at a ceremony held for family and friends at the middle school on the evening of Monday, April 6. The officers of the NHS were Pam Witmer, Presi- dent; Jennifer Madden, Vice-President; Mindy Stackhouse, Secretary; and Ginger Bolen, Treasurer. The faculty sponsor was Mrs. Paula Fike. Among those attending the fall open house were Mr. and Mrs. Ed Snyder, who were honored as hav- ing the most grandchildren (50).

Nagel’s Kids Do Well The Barons did it again with another good year in speech as they attended 13 invitational tournaments throughout Northern Indi- ana and hosted two. They also attended the Bradley University Tournament. The executive council, headed by Jill Zimmerman, Roger Helmkamp, Bruce Buttermore, and Angie Metzger, helped the team by making plans for the coming year. The Speech Team gave students the opportunity to express their thoughts and feelings on stage. Hard work, as you know, goes into every good speech.

The Barons did a fabulous job in the IHSFA, placing first in sectionals, fourth in re- gionals, and eleventh place in the state. Placing in the state finals were Roger Helmkamp, fourth in Ora- torical Interpretation; Nikole Woodworth, fifth in Drama; and Jennifer Madden, eighth in Foreign Extemporaneous. DHS took fourth place in the District Tournament sponsored by the National Forensic League. The two top national qualifiers were Nikole Woodworth in Dra- ma and Jennifer Madden in Foreign Extemp.

Mr. Love retired in 1987 after teaching at DHS since its start. SS Club Hosts Banquet “As the World Turns” was not a soap opera as far as for- eign language club members were concerned. Rather, it was the theme of the For- eign Language Banquet, hosted by the Spanish Club. Held on March 9, this annual event gave the members of all three language clubs a chance to gain a better un- derstanding of the customs and culture of the countries where Spanish, German, and French are spoken. Besides bringing in a wide array of delicious foods from the various countries, each club presented a skit — see pictures on these four pages. Besides the banquet, the Spanish Club was involved in many other activities. They held several money-making activities in order to provide scholarships for those in- tending to continue their study of Spanish in college. They sold football conces- sions and sponsored a dance for this. Some of the funds were also used to purchase cassettes for the National Spanish Exams. A field trip to Ft. Wayne gave members a chance to see some Spanish Flamenco dancers. Exchange student Ruby Navarro helped the members prepare for com- petition in the Foreign Lan- guage Fair at IPFW, where several students placed quite well. In addition, Michelle Speer was selected to serve as an interpreter during the Pan-Am Games in Indianap- olis in the summer of 1987. 47 SPANISH CLUB Peaceful Coexistence Peaceful coexistence has not always been the rule for the German and French people, but the clubs repre- senting those two languages at DHS managed to coexist. The German Club took part in many activities throughout the year, starting with selling concessions at a football game and ending with operating baseball con- cessions and awarding schol- arships to graduating seniors. During basketball season, they operated the coat check. They also sponsored a 50’s-60’s Dance on Valen- tine’s weekend. The German Club spent part of their time ‘on the road.” In November they went to Ft. Wayne to see a program of the music and dance of Germany and Aus- tria. In April they went on their annual trip to Franken- muth, MI, and also were very successful in their first at- tempt at participation in the GERMAN CLUB: Front Row: Edye Heminger, Sharon Klein, Jennifer Madden, Melissa Menzie, Jeni Sny- der, Tammie Wolf, Anne Stafford, Heather Sarbacker, Andy Miller, Ron Holben, Nancy Sprankie, Missy Bickel, Christine Hoffman, Jenny 48 GERMAN, FRENCH In a skit, tourist Ben Smaltz learns the proper way to waltz in Vienna from Jennifer Chapman.

Groups Keep: , Barons Busy .4 In its second year of exis- tence, the local SADD chap- ter was quite active. SADD stands for Students Against Driving Drunk. SADD sponsored hotlines for Homecoming, Prom, and Graduation. As part of the awareness program, articles were published in the school newspaper. Through SADD’s SCS (Stu- dents Caring for Students) program, someone was al- ways available for anyone needing to discuss a prob- lem with someone else. SADD co-sponsored with the Student Council the visit of dynamic speaker Bob Stromberg for a student as- sembly and donated to the Christmas Bureau. SADD sponsored two dances and took a trip to Ce- dar Point on May 23. The sponsors of SADD were Mrs. Tita Gordon and Mrs. Josie Weber. Two other organizations involved many students, al- though their meetings were not held in the school. One of these was Junior Achieve- ment, in which students formed their own compa- nies and made and sold products. Honored at the JAFE program was Steve Crawford as President of the Year finalist. Also honored as semifinalists were Paul Dapp and Dan Elkin. Brad Ander- son won an achievement award; Paul Dapp was a pub- lic speaking finalist; and Crawford and Kelly Emerick were management award winners. All were members of Cash Crop, sponsored by Cooper. Campus Life, also, in- volved a number of students, presenting the Mousehole, holding meetings in stu- dents’ homes, and sponsor- ing a Spring Break trip to Florida. An informal meeting is held by the SADD committee working on ACD and Fair projects.

Activities For Leisure Time The well-rounded person has interests in more than one area. Besides preparing for college or future occupa- tions, some DHS students also were involved in activi- ties that would be of interest for their future leisure time. Some of the more athletic of these students joined the Ski Club. In its second year of existence, this club gave Baron ski enthusiasts an out- let for their favorite winter sport. Once a week, if weather and snow condi- tions were favorable, about 15 to 20 members and guests climbed aboard a bus for the ride to Timber Ridge, north of Kalamazoo, Michigan. They left shortly after school was dismissed and returned at about midnight, which al- lowed about four hours of skiing each night. Serving as sponsor of the Ski Club was elementary teacher Mrs. Beth Purkhiser. The officers consisted of co- ELECTRICITY CLUB: Front Row: Robert Maxwell, Brad Anderson, Aaron Krontz, Rick Short.

Another hobby that some people enjoy is the making of models such as airplanes and cars. The Model Club was for them. The club was not too active, but they did conduct one model ex- change session. Officers of the Model Club were Robert Maxwell, President; Brad Anderson, Vice-President; Ken Sylvester, Secretary; and Aaron Krontz, Treasurer. The sponsor was Mr. Bill Snavley. The Electricity Club was for those interested in elec- tronics. Although several projects were discussed, they never really ever were followed through on. Offi- cers of the Electricity Club were Robert Maxwell, Presi- dent; Brad Anderson, Vice- President; Aaron Hicks, Sec- retary; and Kirk Fee, Treasurer.

Members earned points for working and the top five point-get- ters were Cathy Wellman, Bill Snavley, Nancy Wellman, Scott Boger, and Adam Cain. Officers were President Jim Wilson, Vice-President Amy Dennison, and Sec. Treas. Kelly Brandon. Future Farmers of America activities were designed to develop agricultural leader- ship, cooperation, and citi- zenship. Members _partici- pated in numerous local, district, and state contests in leadership and in dairy, live- stock, and soil judging. They also attended the state con- vention and leadership camps and the Indy Super Pull for Trucks and Tractors. To help younger children understand agriculture, they had a Young McDonalds Farm display at the county fair and conducted Ag Day farm tours for the district’s third graders. The FFA farmed the school’s land lab and had an FFA basketball team which played against area FFA teams. Scott Dunn and Lisa Hefty were invited to speak at Dan Coat’s Farm Day and Scott was the District Ill Vice-President. The chapter also had four first place pro- ficiency winners for their ag projects. 5). _ LETTERWINNERS, FFA Summer Work Pays Off Nothing to do in the sum- mer? Being a member of the Brigadiers would solve that problem. After the members of the 1986-87 squad were selected at the spring try- outs, practice sessions were held through the summer to prepare the 37 members of the flag troupe and the 14 dancers for the fall marching season. They spent hours and hours in all kinds of weather perfecting their pa- rade routines and field shows. The Brigadiers took part in all of the Baron Brigade’s competitions and experi- enced the excitement of performing in the Hoosier Dome when the Barons won the state. When winter arrived, the focus moved indoors when basketball pre-game and 56 BRIGADIERS half-time shows were prac- ticed and presented. In mid- March, the Brigadiers played a major part in the produc- tion and presentation of the variety show called the Bar- on Revue. Taking part in the ISSMA competition, Dawn Barth, Linda Prosser, and Melissa Brown received first place in solo presentations. Several other first place ratings were earned in duo and ensem- ble. In competition at St. Louis the flags got a superior rating for their ‘‘Final Count- Down’’ number and the dancers also were rated su- perior for ‘‘Scream Ma- chine,” so all of those hours put in during the su mmer and after school really did pay off.

What are you doing for the rest of your life? Mem- bers of the FEA and FHA think they have at least part of their futures planned. The Future Educators in Action club was very busy. Most of their activities were aimed toward their goals of promoting the goals of pub- lic education and teaching as a career and to be of service to the school and teaching staff. Members of FEA served as “Elfies,’” who did nice things for their assigned staff mem- bers. They gave tutoring as- sistance to fellow students and raised funds for a senior scholarship. Several after- school snacks were hosted for staff members. And a new project was the naming of Teacher-of-the-Month awards. Adopt-a-Grandparent was an FHA project. Left, Andrea Hart relaxes in the dining room of the Betz Nursing Home with her friend. Another active group, al- though small in member- ship, was the Future Home- makers of America. This club has the family as its central focus. FHA is not just a local or- ganization, so they attended two district meetings and a state convention in India- napolis. They also took part in an FHA-FFA Tri-county skating party and had a show and snack party of their own. Service and concern for others is a big part of FHA. They had an on-going Adopt-a-Grandparent pro- gram at Betz Nursing Home, where they also held a year- end party. They made dona- tions to the Humane Shelter, the Christmas Bureau, the Pre-school for the Handi- capped, and the school’s foods department.

The Baron Shield staff pro- duced nine issues for the en- lightenment of the student body. Probably the most popular feature of the paper was the Classified section in which students could send short messages to their friends (or enemies). The. most popular issue of the newspaper came out at the end of the year and included the Senior Wills and the re- sults of the Senior Poll. Major staff positions were held by Kelly Emerick, Edi- tor-in- Chief; Chris Crager, Donny Mettert, and Ted Christensen, Assistant Edi- tors; Linda Timmerman, Business Manager; Brian Mc- Coy and Jennifer Fouts, Ad- vertising Managers; Lisa Conrad, Lay-out Manager; SABER: Front Row: Chris Klausen, Kristen Phillips, Jenny Dietsch, Toma Guinn, Brian Brown. Second Row: Kim Buckles, Michelle Mess- er, Andrea Vose, Loretta Albright, Tina Betz, Terri Mosley, and Dian Davidson. and Jon Farmer, Art Editor. Along with newspaper production, staff members conducted successful ad campaigns and had at least three staff parties. Parties were also a favorite activity of the Saber staff. Since the staff met each day during second hour, there was ample time for snack consumption in celebration of almost anything. In be- tween parties they tried to complete the work to meet the assigned deadlines for the yearbook. After one theme had been selected, the football team’s success prompted a change to the theme “We're Num- ber One!’’ Meanwhile, pic- tures were taken, lay-outs were planned, ads were sold, and copy was written. You are holding the results right now. It takes a lot of cutting and pasting to put together a newspaper, as Bri- an McCoy, below, can tell you.

Young Field. Although a thaw was predicted for game day, school au- thorities knew that the melting snow would not make for good playing conditions. The call went out and many Baron fans showed up to help to shovel the field clear of snow. It worked. Playing conditions were nearly perfect and so were the game results. The following week weather was no problem because the chamionship game was played in the Hoosier Dome. At left, Prin- cipal Doug Fites works on clearing the north end zone. RICHARD BARBER: Dept.

We’re num- ber one! These chants were made possible by the Baron’s 28-7 victory over the Frank- lin Central Flashes in the Hoosier Dome on Saturday afternoon, November 29, 1986. The Barons combined their grind-it-out offense and bone crushing defense to dominate Franklin Central as few teams have ever been dominated in a state champi- onship game. Proof of this can be seen in the state championship game records set by the ’86 Barons: fewest rushing attempts by oppo- nent (14), fewest total plays by opponent (27), fewest yards allowed rushing (23), fewest first downs allowed rushing (1), most first downs rushing (23), most plays of- fensively (74), and time of possession (34:46). Neither team was able to score in the first quarter, but the Barons were able to put 14 points on the board in the second quarter, the result of 2 one-yard runs by Rick Endsley and 2 kicks by Bill Griggs. A four play, 65 yard scor- ing drive by the Flashes on their first possession of the third quarter woke up the Barons, who then ground out 75 yards in 13 plays to score on a Mike Cochran run and another Griggs kick. The final touchdown came 114 in the fourth qua rter after an 18 play, 68 yard drive, with Endsley and Griggs again hit- ting paydirt. Endsley set an individual state champion- ship game record for the most rushing attempts of 41. Individual stats in the championship game includ- ed Endsley 41 carries, 194 yards; Cochran 25 carries, 101 yards, Denny West 2 car- ries, 6 yards. In passing, Aar- on Kroemer was 2 for 5 (West 2 receptions for 16 yards) and Endsley was 0 for 1 State-wide recognition was given to several individ- uals. UPI All-State First Team — Rick Endsley; Honorable Mention — Mike Cochran, Denny West. AP All-State First Team — Endsley, Coch- ran, Jim Wilson, Brian Raub; Honorable Mention — West, Bill Griggs, Aaron Kroemer. Academic All State — Scott Sproat, Kroemer, Dan McAninch. Rick Endsley’s high school career ended with this game after accumulating 5,128 ca- reer rushing yards, moving him to third on the all-time list for the state of Indiana.

Rick Endsley heads upfield against Carroll in the first game of the season. They’ll never forget it! State Champs! But the rest of the season also included some high points. Although offensive statis- tics are what most people notice first, the Baron de- fense played a key part in the team’s success. There were six shut-outs and only twice in the fourteen games did the “bad guys’’ score more than once: East Noble had 2 touchdowns and Logansport had three. The widest mar- gin of victory came against Angola (63-0) and the nar- rowest victory margin was over the Munster Mustangs in the semi-state (14-6). Of the eleven touchdowns al- lowed, four were scored rushing, six passing, and one on a very costly kick-off re- turn by East Noble. The Baron defense gave up 1880 total yards while the offense was compiling 4634 yards. The leading individ- uals on defense were Mike Cochran and Denny West. Winning Seasou Bull Toward Chauipionsbip Cochran had 80 solo tackles, 79 assists, and 2 pass inter- ceptions. West had 76 solo tackles, 56 assists, 4 fumble recoveries, and 3 intercep- tions. He also broke up 15 additional passes. Jim Stahl and Scott Sproat each recov- ered 5 fumbles and Todd Cool hounded the pass re- ceivers, having 3 intercep- tions and 11 passes broken up. On the offensive side of the ledger, the Barons racked up 433 points, result- ing from 62 touchdowns and 57 point after attempts, in- cluding 53 kicks by Bill Griggs. Leading the offense was running back Rick Ends- ley, who gained 2128 yards on 345 carries for 29 touch- downs, his longest run being for 68 yards. Mike Cochran gained 1000 yards in 201 car- ries. Although passing was not the major weapon in the of- fensive arsenal, quarterback Aaron (A.j.) Kroemer was Sigs WEBS very effective when a pass was needed. He completed 52 percent of his 116 at- tempts for 944 yards and only 4 interceptions. Denny West was the leading receiv- er, catching 37 passes for 662 yards and 8 touchdowns. West’s longest reception gained 68 yards. Stuart Alli- son caught 18 passes for 203 yards and one touchdown. Conference and area hon- ors were earned by several Barons. The Fvening Star named Rick Endsley its Prep of the Year. Denny West, Mike Cochran, Jim Wilson, and Brian Raub were on the Star’s 1st Team: Bill Griggs, 2nd Team; and Scott Sproat, Aaron Kroemer, and Dan McAninch, Honorable Men- tion. In the NEIAC, Endsley, Cochran, West, Wilson, Raub, and Griggs made the Ist team. Wilson was also se- lected for his punting. On the NEIAC 2nd Team were McAninch and Jim Stahl. 17 VARSITY FOOTBALL While the reserve football team had a losing season, re- serve and freshman volley- ball and freshman football had excellent winning rec- cords. The reserve football team finished with a 2-5 record. A 14-6 win over Garrett and an exciting 12-6 overtime win against Angola highlighted the otherwise disappointing season. The freshman football team, on the other hand, fin- ished with an excellent 7-1 record, their only loss being to conference foe Bellmont, 16-14. The team was led of- fensively by quarterback Erik Weber and receiver Brad Woodcox. Running backs Thad Nixon and Tom Findley ran for many yards to lead the team. Ken Jones was a leading offensive lineman for the young Barons. Defen- sively, the team had an ex- cellent line with the help of lineman Stan Shipe and line- backers Kirk Sells and Ross Quaintance. The freshman spikers end- ed their season with a 15-2 record, a new school record for the most wins by a fresh- man team. They won the Prairie Heights and Home- stead tournaments. Lisa Charlesworth led the team in serving and tied Michelle Crager as leading passer. Crager was also the number one spiker for the team, with Angie Quickery in second place. Tammy Wolff was the leading setter, with Tara Stayer second. The reserve volleyball team had a 16-5 record, posting a new school record. A win at the New Haven JV tourney highlighted their season. Beth Aschliman led the reserves with an 88 serv- ing percentage. Heather Rekeweg was the team’s leading spiker and blocker, with 36% blocking kills. 118 RESERVES, FRESHMEN FRESHMAN FOOTBALL: Front Row: Chad Saucedo, Ross Quain- tance, Terrie Blackburn, Thad Nix- on, David Payne, Tom Findley.

The vol- leyballers also had a spectac- ular season. The team’s 29-3 season set a new school record as did their record of most games won of 59. They were 8-0 in the conference for the sec- ond year in a row and beat the conference champ of every area conference (SAC, ACAC, NECC, TRC). The season came to an abrupt end with a loss to Snider in the first round of the Wayne regional. Balance was a key ingredi- ent in the team’s success, with excellent leadership from the seniors, especially captains Amy Dennison, Di- ana Cserep, and Kelly Bran- don. The team had a bal- anced attack with 6 spikers having 55 or more spike kills. Balanced serving was possi- ble with 6 strong servers who could keep the pres- sure On opponents. Being a relatively short team with no starter over 5’8’ , quickness, power, and strategy helped the Barons beat bigger teams at the point of attack. Their multi- ple offense had several at- 120 VOLLEYBALL tack options including many highly-skilled quick hits. Set- ter Dennison ran the 5-1 of- fense and was the “hub of the wheel.” In addition to their con- ference championship and fourth consecutive sectional championship, the girls won the Whitko Invitational and placed third at the tough Concord Invitational, losing only to a powerhouse NorthWood team. Several outstanding indi- vidual efforts were recorded during the year. Individual match records were set by Amy Dennison with 22 as- sists; Diana Cserep, 10 aces; and Machelle Joseph, 25 for 25 in spiking with no errors. These same three players moved atop the all-time leader board in several cate- gories: Dennison with 3140 sets and 1179 setting assists; Cserep, 969 serve attempts and 232 aces; and Joseph, 443 spike kills. Conference honors came to Head Coach Greg Vick when he was named coach of the year. In addition, Dennison and Joseph were named to the NE IAC first team while Cserep earned second team honors.

This year’s weather was better than usu- al, so most matches could be held as scheduled. Senior leadership played a factor in the tennis team’s - compiling a winning 9-7 re- cord. They also finished in a three-way tie for first place in their own invitational. The other two teams were East Noble and Jay County. Two of the three singles positions were held by se- niors. Jim Till, at number one singles, had a 9-9 season re- cord. The other senior, Chad = fim Miller, played number three singles and had a 14-5 re- cord, the best on the team. Playing at number two sin- gles was the other upper- classman on the varsity team, Gregg Lockwood. His season record was second best at 13-6. Both varsity doubles teams were composed of sopho- mores. The number one doubles team of Jamie Bone- cutter and Chad Weimer ex- perienced a 7-12 season. At number two doubles, Todd Muzzillo was usually paired with Jeff Warner.

Veteran distance runner Cathy Wellman rounds a turn during the Snider Classic held at Shoaff Park. a nt Many runners are known for starting slow and then having a strong kick at the finish. This was true of both Baron cross country teams in 1986. Needing five runners to compete as a team, the girls didn’t have a full comple- ment of runners until most of the season had gone by. They then finished fifth in the sectional and eighth at regional. Leading the team were sisters Cathy Wellman, senior, and Nancy Wellman, sophomore. The boys cross country team, lacking in senior lead- ership, had to rely on juniors Mark Schoudel and Doug Camp to point the way. Then Chris Dove, a freshman who had not run cross country before, came on strong to- ward mid-season and turned in the year’s best time of 16:53 for the 5000 meters. Sophomore Scott Boger usually held down the num- ber four spot, with Manuel Pinedo, Sean Camp, John Cannon, and Aaron Maugh- erman taking turns at the number five spot. Freshman Doug Randal showed prom- ise early in the season, but sprained his leg. Despite the 6 win, 8 loss season and the weak show- ing in some of the invitation- als, Coach Niles Walton was encouraged by the way the team showed improvement to surprise many people, fin- ishing third in the confer- ence, second in the section- al, and fourth in the regional. The season ended with a re- spectable finish of thirteenth place at semi-state, which no one would have predicted early in the year. Headed toward a second place team finish in the sectional meet at Kendallville’s Bixler Lake Park are Chris Dove and Doug Camp. 125 CROSS COUNTRY Since being a cheerleader requires a lot of a student’s spare time, two sets of cheerleading squads were chosen for 1986-87. Clinics were held in the spring and everyone who wanted to try out was evaluated by a com- mittee and then the final se- lections were made. Preparations for the year began in the summer with two practice sessions a week at 6 A.M. They also attended the National Cheerleading Association Camp at Ander- son, where the varsity was nominated for final competi- tion on the last day of camp. Other summer events in- cluded a first-time competi- tion at the Indiana State Fair for both JV and Varsity. Both squads also earned a second place trophy in the competi- tion at Garrett. During the season, the cheerleaders raised funds by selling concessions at volley- ball and reserve football games. They held a clinic for elementary girls on Saturday, October 4, and sponsored a dance in January. For the NEIAC basketball tourney, the cheerleaders made the spirit banner and were instrumental in helping DHS win the Sportsmanship Award for the girls’ tourney games. Throughout the year the many cheerleader activities were under the dedicated supervision of Mrs. Diana Meschberger. Yea, rah, team! During a time out, the varsity cheerleaders (top) build a pyramid.

The section- al championship is what did it. Although their final rec- ord was only 12-12, the sec- tional trophy and the trip to the regional at the Coliseum convinced most folks that the Barons had had a good year. After getting off to a strong 7-1 start, the team came upon hard times and ended the regular season at 9-11. Then came wins over Eastside, Hamilton, and Leo for the sectional crown. A loss to Whitko ended the season. To be successful, a team needs leadership and they got it, especially from their seniors. Starters Chris Bar- nett and Jeff Ladd were both named to the first team in the NEIAC. Mark Voirol was a very strong player off the bench, hitting 49% on field goals and pulling down 106 rebounds. Randy Jacke- meyer was hampered with a knee injury through most of the year, but he contributed to the team in many intangi- ble ways. Sharp shooter Ladd was the team’s leading scorer, compiling 400 points and hitting 49% on field goals and an outstanding 87% on free throws. He was also the team’s assist leader with 74 for. the year. Barnett shot nearly 52% from the field and led the team in re- bounds (187) and steals (40). Several other players also contributed to the team’s success. Micah Hefty scored 191 points and had 113 as- sists. Jeff Reese scored 147 points and had 89 rebounds and 45 assists. Bruce Fuhrer scored 117 points and had 110 rebounds.

The best year was had by the junior varsity, who finished at 14-6. With a 7-1 record in the NEIAC, the JV team was the conference champ for thefourth year in a row. In fact, this year com- pleted an outstanding four- year period of conference championships with a record of 28-4 (60-20 in all games). The JV team set a new school defensive record when they allowed the op- position teams to average only 39.7 points per game. At the same time, several in- dividuals were having good years. Erik Weber was the leading scorer with 214 points. Also scoring over 100 were Greg Lantz (137), Vince Wells (118), and Jason Smith (109). Weber with 27 and Smith with 26 topped the team’s assist list.

Five JV players shot over 40 percent from the field: Brad Wood- cox (51.8%), Wells (51), Ke- vin Halliday (49), Weber (45.9), and Lantz (43.8). Some of the JV players also played on the sophomore or “C’’ team, which posted a 6- 3 record. The team’s leading scorers were Brett Hender- son and Jason Smith. Hen- derson totaled 105 points (11.7 average for 9 games) and Smith had 94 (13.4 aver- age for 7 games). Scott Price and Smith had outstanding free throw shooting per- centages. Smith was 9 for 10 (90%) and Smith was 20 for 24 (83%). The “C” team av- eraged over ten points a game more than their oppo- nents. The freshman team was the only one without a win- ning record at 8-9, hitting the skids and losing five of their last six games. But there were some bright spots. The frosh shot 46% as a team from the field. oeuau | BAROF ff al AL j 2 ads y ? i (3 FRESHMEN: Front Row: Ron Schuller, David Harris, Wes Oswalt, Jamie Back, Ron Dobson, Scott Price.

[3 RESERVE BASKETBALL Lady Barouw Win 20 In A Row The Lady Barons, with NEIAC Coach of the Year Gary Daub, had a a al season of 21-3. They fe short of a win at the Ft. Wayne regional against Nor- throp for the second year in a row. Seniors Gail Cain and Shelly Roberts were out- standing in their final year of competition. Cain scored an average of 12.8 points per game, hitting an outstandin 50% of her shots. She pulle down 248 rebounds, includ- ing 155 defensive rebounds, for a total average of 10.3 per ame. Cain was also NEIAC irst team pick. At a forward position, Roberts’ steady play and leadership were a positive influence. Although she scored only about 6 points on the average, her 118 re- bounds, 49 steals, and 39 as- sists were very helpful in the Lady Barons’ successful sea- son. Roberts was chosen for NEIAC second team. Machelle Joseph, junior and NEIAC first team pick, was ranked 1 for having the most points in the season — 630. She was also ranked 4 in the state for an average of 26.3 points per game. Joseph shot 54% from the field and 67% of her free throws. She had 97 assists and a total of 164 rebounds. Tina Menier, junior guard, and sophomore forward Lori Pomeroy were key players for the Lady Barons. Menier, a conference second team selection, with 140 points and 56 rebounds, and Po- meroy, with 89 rebounds, kept the Lady Barons busy. A freshman, Lisa Hefty had a good year also, with 88 points and 54 rebounds. The Lady Barons won their own holiday tourney.

Successful basketball teams don’t just happen overnight. The foundations are built through many years of practice. Most of the girls in the high school program got their first real garne- playing experience in sixth grade or before by playing in the Girls Athletic League (GAL) games. Then came ju- nior high teams and compe- tition against other schools. At DHS, in addition to the varsity, we also have the re- serve team and the fresh- men. The reserves compiled an 11-4 season record, with two of the losses being by only one point. They outscored their opponents 432 to 369. They also had higher field goal and free throw shooting percentages than the oppo- nents and outrebounded them 339 to 284. They had 50 more defensive rebounds than their opponents. Leading scorer, with 106 total points, was Missy Crager. She also pulled down 69 rebounds (team best) and shot 43% from the field. Angie Quickery scored 72 points and had 68 re- bounds, 18 steals and 13 as- sists. Shelly Rugman, who scored 63 points, was 53% fro m the field. The freshmen, on the oth- er hand, broke even for the year with a 7-7 record, losing games to Garrett and Home- stead in overtime.

Seniors Jim Wilson, at heavyweight with a 24-4-1 record, and Mark Healey, finishing 18-10 at 126, led _the young team. Both ad- vanced to semi-state. Wilson captured first place at all the tournaments except region- al, where he placed second. Healey owned the fastest pin time for the team, at 12 sec- onds. Other wrestlers with winning seasons were se- niors Todd Moran at 138, (13-9), and Nick Sanders, fin- ishing 14-10 at 155. Juniors Doug Aschliman at 112 and Lance Timberlin at 177 also had good seasons. Timberlin finished with a 17-8 record, and Aschliman was 15-3, with all 15 wins being by pin or technical fall. The team did well in the tournaments they participat- ed in. They placed third at the Woodlan Invitational, fifth at the East Noble Invita- tional, fourth at the NEIAC conference meet, and third at sectional, where five wres- tlers advanced to regional. The reserves ended their season with a 3-6 record. Shawn Robinson at 105 was 3-0, and Bryan Parr was 5-0 at 155. Their wins earned them varsity positions later in the season. Bryan Sorg at 126 finished the season 4-2, and had the fastest pin for the reserves at 48 seconds. The Mat Maids helped the team a great deal.

The varsity’s sea- son ended with a record of 4-10; the reserves finished at 7-5. Two team school records were broken. Alison Mor- gan, Lynda Cobbs, and Geor- ganna Cobbs broke the rec- ord with a score of 25.8 (25.15 in 1986) on the vault. They also broke the record for the number of no-fall beam routines in a year with 13 (17 in 1985). The Barons came in 3rd in NEIAC action behind Home- stead and East Noble, 5th at Logansport, 15th at Elm- hurst, and 4th in the section- al. The team managed to score in the 80’s nine times, with a top score of 88.05 against Lakeland and West- view. There were some individ- ual accomplishments worthy of notation. Alison Morgan earned 1st place in vault at Logansport and 4th in sec- tional vault, advancing to re- gional, where she scored 8.95, setting a new school re- cord. Lynda Cobbs placed 4th at NEIAC on vault and tied for 5th in vault at sec- tional. Angie Bishop placed 4th in beam at Logansport.

After some early losses, they quickly dropped from their ranking in the state’s top five. They finished in a 3-way tie for second in the NEIAC behind Bellmont, but won the sectional. However, in the regional they were un- able to defeat Dwenger, whom they had beaten twice in the regular season. Denny West and Chris Barnett made the NEIAC first team and Rick Endsley, the second. West was the team leader in several categories including hitting (.432), on- base percentage (.615), runs (43), hits (32), home runs (5), and walks (37). Endsley, who batted .326, had a team-high 29 RBI's. Scott Sproat drove in 27 runs with his .355 bat- ting average. Phil Stevens also had a good batting aver- age at .346. Leading the team in stolen bases was Jeff Rude with 22. Chris Barnett carried the major pitching responsibil- ity, having a 11-3 record, a 2.44 ERA, and 93 strike outs with only 29 walks. Ham- pered by a sore arm most of the season, Chris Straw was 2-0 with a 1.68 ERA. Ace re- liever Jason Smith was 5-1 with 7 saves. He had a 1.9 ERA, 56 strike outs and 16 walks. The total pitching staff had a combined ERA of 2.8.

After a slow start, the team came back to win 10 of their last 11 games. Some of the leading hit- ters were Tom Findley, who batted .392 with 10 RBI's; Brian Henderson hit .360 with 1 home run and 7 RBI's; Mike Gower hit .375 with 9 RBI’s; Chad Saucedo hit .281 and led the team with 12 RBI's. The team’s strengths were their defense (33 errors, 1.8 per game), their speed, and their pitching. The three pitching workhouses were Kenny Jones (2-3, 4.84 ERA), Mike Spratt (2-0, 2.59 ERA), and bullpen ace Ron Dobson (4-2, 2.68 ERA and 4 saves). Jamie Back and Jason Finn were both 2-0. Strikeout leader was Mike Spratt with 48. ‘Some big wins came against Homestead, Eastside, and two of the wins against East Noble 2-0 and 4-0, with the latter game being a no- hitter by Mike Spratt and Ron Dobson. The Diamond Darlings (bat girls) did their usual fine job of assisting both the varsity and reserve teams during all of the home games. With defense being a team strong point, first baseman Scott Allison holds the runner close to the base. RESERVE BASEBALL: Front Row: Asst.

The golf team was the proud winner of the NEIAC crown in 1987 with a score of 322 on the Cedar Creek course. Brad Woodcox won medalist honors with his 74. They also won the Angola Invitational with a 326. However, their 316 at Brookwood in the sectional meet was one stroke short of qualifying for the LaFayette regional. In dual meets, the team had a 9-1 record, losing only to Columbia City by 3 strokes. The reserves also had a good season with just two losses. Having the best 9 hole av- erage was senior Jeff Martin at 39.7. He was closely fol- lowed by Gregg Lockwood (39.9), Trent Stuckey (40.1), Brad Woodcox (40.2), and Mike Houser (40.8). Team balance can easily be seen by comparing these scores. When it came to the 18 hole matches, Brad Wood- cox was tops, averaging just under 79 strokes per round. The closest ones to him were Gregg Lockwood and Jeff Martin, both averaging close to 62; Gregg Lockwood looks down the third fairway as he prepares to hit his tee shot. 151 GOLF Lady Baron softball team members relax on the bench as they wait for their turn at bat.

They finished the season with a 16-7 record. Several players made sig- nificant contributions to the team’s success. Renee Smith topped the team in two Cat- egories by batting .470 and having 52 stolen bases. She also scored 30 runs, had 18 RBI’s and only one fielding error for the season. Candy Rodgers was tied for second in batting with a .405 average. She had 20 RBI's, 28 runs scored, and 43 stolen bases.

Sophmores Mike Bennett and Todd Smith make sure they play the right notes on their baritones in concert band. The wear and tear of 20 years sure doesn’t show up on this school. The 1986-87 school year marked DeKalb’s 20th anniversary. The 1986-87 school year came to an end marking it DeKalb’s 20th anniversary. It definitely was a number one year for the Barons. Many Baron individuals were recognized for their talents. Ni- kole Woodworth and _ Jennifer Madden were on their way to the National Speech Tourna- ment in June. Tom Michael and Pam Witmer were awarded best soloist awards. The Baron Brigade made a trip to St. Louis, MO, for the Mid- America Festival of Champions May 1-4.

Although in failing health, he had continued teaching through the previous Friday. Then his heart simply quit working.
