Stansfield Stands Out In the Field of Teaching Thanks for 23 years of service. Each year the yearbook staff dedicates the yearbook to an outstanding faculty member who touches us oil in some way or another throughout the school year. This year Frank Sransfield was unanimously voted for this honor. Stansfield teaches regular and honors senior Government Economics class. Near- ly every senior who had Frank fell in love with his cheerful smile and personality, and best of all his exciting teaching methods. I think he is an inspitotion for teaching Government class. We learn a lot from him, said senior Stephanie Reed. Almost all will agree with senior Dub Cook when he said Stansfield is one of the best teachers we hove. He is definitely more on the teenage level. He ' s the coolest teacher I ' ve ever hod since I ' ve been in High school, soid senior Ken Franklen. I think he is one of the most creative teachers in the school. He doesn ' t ask you to open your book and do the same old thing day after day, said senior Andy Williams. Whenever you need a laugh, Frank has the perfect joke to cheer you up. Some of the seniot boys have an inside joke with him about our newest Dickinson attraction, Heartbreakers. Senior Allen Doudreaux said that Frank is the Heartbteakers King and the number one teacher around, while Scott Palmer jokingly added, He is definitely the BEST! Frank Stansfield is retiring at the end of the 1985-86 school year, and everyone knows how deeply we will miss him. He touched us all with his cheerful, outrageous attitude toward reaching, and life in general. Underclassmen, you just don ' t know what you have missed! f During rhe homecoming parade.

From Beginning To end, A Truly Outrageous Year From the editor Ir oil began in June 1985 when it was rime ro heod for Som Houston State Univer- sity to begin our week or yearbook camp A few days before camp we started to work of Mrs. Wolfe ' s house. The section editors — Lisa Motocha, Diane Adams, Erin Shumer, Aliso Guerrant, and Christine Mullen — and I had to have o cover design, a theme, and the basics for the rest of the book before we went to camp While sifting around ' doodling, our cover design was discovered, but the making of a theme gave us tremendous problems. On the bus on the way to Huntsville, Kevin Campbell hod o brainstorm. Our theme was born, and it was perfect. OUTRAGEOUSLY OUTRAGEOUS. These two words described our staff, and most of oil, the 1985-86 school year We had a lor of work in front of us for the upcoming year. Early deadlines for our new spring delivery book were the hardest parr. The firsr two deadlines went smoothly, but then come the third and fourth. The third was a bit rocky, bur the fourth was the worst. Mrs. Wolfe became ill and we just couldn ' t handle it without her, bur she come bock and saved the book. It seemed like the problems would never end, but overall I think the book is OUTRAGEOUS. It is different and exciting. It displays the school year perfectly. The cover is different, untraditional, and full of color. I think this is a grear book and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed helping in the making of it. I enjoyed being editor, but it is not all that it ' s cracked up ro be. It is a lot of work and gave me many head- aches, bur was also fun. I give special thanks to our adviser, Mrs. Wolfe; the staff; the photographers; Dryn- Alan Studio; our Taylor Publishing Com- pany representative Mike Porker; Miss Dridgerre Bookman for her inrerim help; oil advertisers; and most of oil to the TPC plant for oil rheir time in helping us get our book Senior Jimilou Sreomborge appears calm and tranquil after a challenging year of producing the 1986 GATOR This picture was token in Dickinson at Poul Hopkins Pork Adviser Mrs Karen Wolfe said, Thanks ro the students of DH5 for supporting the GATOR, and a special thanks to the yearbook staff fot all their hard work done Hove fun!
