Lots And Lots Of Effort Is A Major Part Of High School Obviously the most empha- sized part of high school is achievement. Usually academic achievement, but also any kind of personal achievement in gen- eral. These accomplishments in- clude setting goals and then try- ing our very best to fulfill them: goals such as making District Band, winning a scholarship to an art school, participating in the Model United Nations at Mora- vian, and attending a Governor's School during the summer. Achievement applies to the things that give us that terrific feeling inside, like studying su- perhard for an exam and getting the best grade in the class! It's the things that make us proud of ourselves such as making honor roll and being a member of the National Honor Society. It's those pats on the back we need to keep our spirits up, like getting BOOKWORMS? Senior Dwayne Jones takes some homework advice from accom- plished scholar Bill Hess (At least, that's what they explained to their teacher, and who wouldn't believe these two angel faces?) an Outstanding rating in a band competition after months of hard work. It's the pride we feel, belonging to an organization such as the Student Council, The Allentown Council of Youth, and the Stu- dent forum. It's the terrific feel- ing you get when someone recog- nizes you for the work you've done, as in the case of the dedi- cated LEADER staff. Achieving your goals is being a member of the award-winning Varsity cheerleading squad, or getting the straight A's on that report card you've been praying for! Achievement is an important part of life in general. Not nece- sarily whether or not you actual- ly accomplish your goals but the fact that you set goals for your- self and worked towards them. This is an achievement in itself! NEVER TOO BUSY TO SMILE! Junior Dale Doc-' Dougherty breaks for a moment from his art project to flash a dazzling smile at the camera. No doubt this award-winning artist will achieve his goals! Years Of A MANS PLACE IS WHERE??? Pro- spective chef Nick Snyder keeps a steady hand while measuring the ingredients for a scrumptious recipe he created in an enjoyable but very practical cooking class.

Years Of Husky Pride Isn't Only On The Eastside of Allentown Husky Pride. The phrase says it all! This phrase best summa- rizes the feelings that all Huskies experience during their years at Louis E. Dieruff High School. Husky Pride represents happy times and bad times, but most of all, it represents the best four years of your life. We've all sat through rainy football games and cheered our teams on through the worst of weather. Being a Husky means experiencing the joy of victory and the agony of defeat. Huskies give it their all and al- ways strive for the best of ever- ything! Being a Husky means four years of friends and good times. We all can remember those times when we just couldn't stop laughing, and we all remember those secrets shared by our clos- ANNUAL TURKEY-DAY GAME. It brings out the Husky in all of us! Pictured above are Obie Davis and Greg Annoni enjoying the decorations hung by several members of the notorious hall decorating groups. est friends. On school days and weekends, we've spent some of our best times with our friends from Dieruff. Being a Husky means hard work. All of us can remember staying up late to write an essay or practically pulling out our hair because of a math problem that refused to work. But after the dust had cleared, all the effort seemed well worth the work. After spending a period of four years at Dieruff, a person really truly understands the meaning of being a Husky. It doesn't mean always winning or even coming close. Being a Husky means you were always willing to try, to give it your very best shot, and to al- ways be proud of yourself and your school. THEY'VE GOT SPIRIT IN THEIR BRITCHES. The graceful and lovely Powder Puff Cheerleaders are pictured here cheering our Husky team on to victory as well as strut- ting their stuff. , i T.G.I.F! Thank God it's Friday! One of the nicest parts of Husky life is the feel- ing experienced by a student slamming his locker for the last time before a fun- filled weekend!
