Sprechen Sie Deutsch? In April the an- swer was Ja when 15 German students visited East Lansing from Duren, Ger- many. For three weeks they experienced American life. Among their ventures were a visit to City Hall, a tour of the Oldsmo- bile plant, and a visit to the Governor. A highlight for many was a trip to Green- field Village in Dearborn, Michigan, how- ever, one German student commented, Who cares about crazy old Henry Ford anyway? Evenings were spent partying all night. They played poker, drank, lis- tened to loud music and of course smoked. The Germans were very impressed with our school system. They felt that there was a friendlier atmosphere, more classes to choose from, less homework, and the teachers were more lenient. Our ever pop- ular commons was not even noticed by some, but one German student said, lt's a very nice place to sleep, and another said, Durch einanderf' They don't like the age requirement of 18 on buying liquor in this country. East Lansing exchange students, Carol Danhof, Alice Huber, Kar- en Bean, Mary Face, Cathy Brake, and Carrie Olmsted, were looking forward to spending the summer in Duren, Germany. Fischer, Green- March 31, 1943- This was the day the first collaborated work by Rodgers and Hammerstein opened on Broadway. lt was an electrifying success, because it brought together the spirit of the Ameri can people in the new West. Kate Veihl the director of ELHS'S production of Ok lahomal, said The cast was more excited about this musical than any in a long time, which proves the spirit of America is still with us. How does ELHS continue to produce successful plays? Much of the credit goes to Kate Veihl who has for the past four years directed plays at ELHS Much of the credit also goes to the un usually talented students who have work ed hard to uphold the Drama Depart ment's tremendous reputation. Every year more of these kids graduate and leave us to go on to other things. This year the lead seniors in Oklahoma! included: Cindy Mortland!Aunt Eller, Lela lveyfAdo An nie, and Dave Fellows!Ali Hakim. In the last four years these seniors have contri buted largely to the success of past plays and we will remember them as we recall Oklahoma's! memories I F M-'ff OKLAHCDIVIA!

East Lansing High was quite honored to have the ELSingers win the 1976 State Championship Vocal Ensemble. The El- Singers are directed by Dr. Paul Schultz and he is extremely proud of the group. The ELSingers won the regional and dis- trict competition before going on to beat 16 other groups in the State Competition. The ELSingers, who are selected by an audition, consist of ten boys and ten girls. Throughout the year they made public appearances at restaurants, retirement centers and were invited to sing for the people waiting for the President's train that arrived in East Lansing. Besides ELSingers there are many other outstanding choral groups. Cham- ber Choir is another group you audition for. They also compete at different times throughout the year. .. ELSin ers Girls' Chorus and Male Chorus are two classes that always seem to turn out great. No one really knows how good these groups are until the Spring Concert when they all are at their best. ,, 9 front Ch uck 10 f best in the STATE ll lr, 'I , 93? -MV,, ,,., M W LW'L' ' fy!

Mr. Bartlett announces his daughter, Carol Bartlett. A GRACE AND FORM Alice Huber performs her solo dance at the orchestra concert. EMERGENCY The members of the East Lansing High School Symphony Orchestra packed their bags and prepared themselves for a long bumpy bus ride as the three day en- richment tour began. Among the major areas visited were Grosse Pointe, Jack- son High, and Ann Arbor. There, the stu- dents played concerts, went to music mu- seums, and were lodged overnight in their host families' homes. They also met oth- er orchestra students from several differ- ent schools. As one member of the or- chestra put it, it was a musical experi- ence for the students which offered a pro- fessional outlook on their future. Gerald Bartlett, director of the sym- phony orchestra, left East Lansing to be- come the first permanent director of the Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp. After a dedi- cated 18 years of service, it was not easy to leave E.L. and all its memories behind. The last concert, which was held on May 19, was followed by a reception given for Mr. Bartlett and alumni members. Among the students who have won awards for their outstanding achieve- ment were Terry McKinney, Teresa Bea- man, and Reed Beaman. They were se- lected as semi-finalists in the Michigan Youth Arts Festival for performing as the best solo instrumentalists. Another talent- ed student, Georgia Ellis, was announced semi-finalist in the vocal solo. P HERE Kll lY, Kll l Y East Lansing team- mates look on while a member of another team trips over a cat. Y ROLL OVER The boys' Baseball team par- ticipates in pre-game warmup. While many of us were basking in the sun, members of the spring sports teams were busy working out, practicing and competing. Although the spring sports were the least acknowledged, East Lans- ing produced some fine teams. Baseball, Softball, Track, and Tennis, all offered fine coaches and players. Despite the work, there were plenty of good times and just plain goofing off. Like all the other East Lansing teams, they put forth the ex- tra time and came out ahead. Whether it was hot, or cold, wet or dry, you would find someone out running laps, hitting ten- nis balls, or practicing batting. The Track team and their best.

The Varsity Baseball team had a dis- appointing season, they were only able to win three out of eighteen games. They defeated Eastem twice and their third vic- tory came against Holt. Coach Bill Knapp wrapped it all up in one word, Bleah. He then added that the team knew that they were poor, the fans knew that they were poor, and now the press knows. Trying to find a solution to the ever mounting problem, Coach Knapp elevat- ed three Junior Varsity players, Jim Mc- Carron, Tom Graham, and John Diggins. All three players were in the starting line up. These changes brought about a re- covery as the team won its last two con- ference games.

Coach Tom Hanna. -Q Y .V A 1 4 'T 'i i 3 One of the factors that made Junior Varsity baseball good this year was their batting. Kevin Radelet and John Diggins kept the team batting high with leading averages. After losing three starters to the Varsity Team the outfield slumped a bit. Nick Spadafore kept his fellow out- fielders intact by using his veteran lead- ership. An average 9-6 record did not re- flect the ball caliber of the team. Each player showed fine potential in the field and in the batters box. This group should provide Mr. Knapp with a strong team next season to help him back on the win- ning trail. Kevin Radelet said, We had a great team, and great fun, thanks to a great guy, Coach Gibbs. .ff lll VY s A GOOD GAME East Lansing players shake the hands of Lansing Everett players after the game.

The Varsity Track season was phen- omenal as four records were set or bro- ken. In the high jump, Gary Martin set a new record at 6' 10 . Andy Wells broke the old record in the 120 yard high hur- dles with a time of 14.2 seconds. Jim Der- leth broke one record in the long jump with a distance of 23 ' V: , and set another in the discus. The discus was a new event in Michigan High Schools this year. Jim threw a distance of 155 ' 6 ' . Coach Win- ston's thinclads went undefeated in all dual meets as well as winning the Swartz Creek Relays, St. Jo Relays, the Con- ference and the Regionals.

Both of the teams have to work very hard through-out the season so that next year they might run Varsity. Working to achieve this goal each boy puts almost everything into his work. With the small crowds and rain they always finished what they wanted to accomplish. The teams' enthusiasm was also a determining factor in their season. The freshman team had a very good season, with two records that were set in the mile and the discus. Coach Jeff Smith said that the characteristic of this team was: The tougher the competition, the better they did. The JV team was very tough through- out their season, with only one loss which was against a varsity team. The charac- teristic of the JV team was Improvement said Coach Phil Winston, and added that there was a lot of it during the season. 4 LAST LAP Nick Caruso pushes in his at- tempt to win. 4 FLYING HIGH Up and over the bar goes Mark Troutman as he clears that height. :L Y P SERVICE RETURN Jordy Asher strokes a cross court forehand.

First of all they had a new coach, Harold Shel- ton, and he was the first new coach in 13 years. Secondly, they were in a new league, which was found not to be as strong as the old league. The team had lost a lot of seniors and had to start fresh with a new set of players, a new coach, and a new league. A new concept with the new league was that they only played each team once not twice like the old league. But what was important and help- ful was that they played more strong teams and teams out-state which gave the team a lot more experience. The season turned out very successful even though they were not very sure at the start. The season brought them a lot of wins which were rewarding in the end when it came down to the Regionals, where they got first place and the CAC meet where they also captured first place. The team sent two of the doubles teams to the state meet. The teams were Fred Fabian and Tom Mannausa, and Tom Shingleton and Dave Skeels. They won the title at the CAC meet by winning each flight. It was a fantastic surprise and a very pleasing victory, said coach Bob Soule!! 2 6 Ann A State Finals , 'nw 2:54, f2rx?t::r::g1,L:1,ZiITi'ii11T'ITTMQQ. 4 AT NET An angled volley by Fred Fabian wins the match.

New coach Chuck Bauer started the Junior Varsity tennis season a little early this season. Beginning with a lot of weight training and running, the J.V.'s began with some warm-up matches against last years girls state champions. Mr. Bauer was very pleased with the big tumout, he said that it was hard to cut as many peo- ple as necessary. The high point of the season was winning the Waverly Invita- tional. Every player went into the finals. They finished first and second in both sin- gles and doubles. Depth played a big part in the J.V.'s year. UNDEFEATED!! That's how they ended up - They were great this year, but they've got a lot of good seniors to ronlace. 4, an--Q..-gig rfyxy--ww L--- agile 1- -r ap .mv X.

Coach Howard Mad- sen said that despite the fact that it was the team's first year of competition and or- ganized ball game, the players were nev- ertheless eager to learn, enthusiastic, and very coachablef' He also commented on the season being a success in that it had aprovided the players with an oppor- tunity to actively participate and develop the necessary skills for the varsity team. The Varsity softball team consisted of eighteen players, all of whom equally contributed their skill and patience to form an outstanding group. Despite injuries to several key players, they had a strong in- field, and a better than average outfield. The graduating seniors for this year were Pam Riley, Jackie Beem, Ellen Heenan, and Michele Rundle. John Pulford was the first and probably the last boy to have the privilege of being on the Varsity softball team. A MAKE WAY Jamie Hoffman attempts to tag her opponent.

Still a very young team fcontaining only 4 seniorsj the tracksters finished with a fine 8 and 2 record. The biggest thrill of the whole season was beating Holt at their own track, 59 to 55. The girls finish- ed a disappointing second in the first CAC meet because of a disqualification losing by just 3 points. The most surprising thing all season was freshman standout Janine Crawley. About mid-season she set a new school record in the two-mile and con- tinued to improve it every time she ran it there after. Janine finished fourth in the state meet. Juniors Dawn Juola and Sally Schaberg also helped pace the team. Dawn was on the State Journal Honor Roll in four events. Sally was the teams fastest 440 runner and anchored all of the best relays. The team will be in excellent shape for next year. Front row: FROSH TRACK: Tracey Hotchkiss, Jayme Phelps, Anita Slurdi- vanl, Lisa Thornton, Tanya Wells, Pat Penn.

Springtime brought out the playful spir- it in everyone. Students realized that the end of the year was approaching fast. Suddenly all the work piled up but every- one was too busy enjoying the warm weather to get it done. Out in the court- yard you could always see guys throwing frisbees. People also moved out of the cafeteria and into the courtyard to eat their lunches. The front lawn was for sun bathers and the back lawn was reserved for smokers. As the weather got warmer students climbed out of their wool pants and sweaters and hopped into T-shirts and cut-offs. SPRING FLING Q - .s'? S'J'1., viva!

Jim Thaden, One of the many end of the year acti vities for the Class of 76 was the Ceniad Signing Party. A committee made up of some of the Seniors' parents got it all ar- ranged and on June 4 at 6:00 the Seniors started flocking in. Held in the Cafeteria, the courtyard and the Faculty Center, there was plenty of room to mill around and get your yearbook signed. The Ceniad staff was busy in the Faculty Center pass- ing out yearbooks, selling covers and overhearing the excited remarks about their creation. In the Cafeteria, subma- rines, apples, coke and sprite were served, accompanied by 2 live D.J.'s. The walls were decorated with 6th grade pictures of the Seniors, for interesting compari- sons. At a time when the Class of 76 was looking towards the future, the signing party gave them a chance to look back on their past years at ELHS. This year's prom was an Evening in Paradise. lt was held at the Kellogg Cen- ter on the Michigan State Campus. Coup- les were surrounded by a tropical setting in the Big Ten Room, while they danced to the music of the Dan Schaeffer Band. The post prom was held at the Universi- ty Club, for seniors and their dates to con- tinue their Evening in Paradise. Evening in Paradise Q F4 .M ? ....r.

Greek Danc- ing originated because of Freshman Eng- lish class' mythology units. Finally some of the other teachers began allowing their students to participate and now it is an all school acitivity. A few of the lead- ers were: Joan Setas, Chris Demas, Marea Tessaris, and Matt Curtis. Besides being Greek Dancing Day it was also rated as the most wide spread skipping day all year faccounted for by the danc- ingj. The Day of Dancing was a success. A HOLDING HANDS???

X Q N i 3. . will .a rr 'lett Well it happened once again, another class gone. Another class free of finals, mean teachers and football gamesg until September. Another class free of proms, being sardined in the commons and jeer- ing at cheerleaders. Graduation is both a joyful and sad time for most of the seniors of '76. Joyful be- cause they are free at last from the obli- gations that high school encompasses. Sad because they are leaving the security of high school and have to now enter in- to a world that is getting more and more competitive all the time. This is one of the points that Bill Brennan tried to get across in his speech. The other high school speaker, Cindy Milstein, was chos- en along with Bill from a group of thir- teen seniors. They auditioned for a com- mittee consisting of students, parents and faculty. Cindy based the beginning of her speech on the book of Genesis, substitut- ing the principal for the Creator and the Freshmen for what was created.

Each day had a different theme, one being Sneak up and Sock m K, . , J 4 Live it up For the Frosh the day was a first. For the Seniors the day was the first of a long list of lasts. A student's life began the first day of school. That day can hold excite- ment and anticipation about the new year, or anxiety about if spring break was early or late. A school didn't have a complete student body with freshmen. Coming into a new school had several advantages: new friends, specialized classes and organ- ized sports. Unfortunately those advan- tages were seldom noticed until after the fear of upperclassmen, big long halls, and commons was overcome. To settle these fears the seniors sponsored a dance to help initiate the frosh, Why can't we be friends, a tradition carried over from last year's seniors. Friendship day was a first and a success. It hit the school like a bomb, it didn't miss the alienation of one person. In first hour number had three alike mates, the object ulty member and staff member. Each number had three alike mates, the object was to find the other person with their number and win a free ice cream cone. A variety of ways were found to accomplish this. Some strolled quietly through the halls on the allotted 20 minute breaks, eyeing other's numbers. Most popular of all methods was for a person to sit on anoth- er's shoulder and scream out their numbers. Not only were new friends made, there was also a lot of just plain fun. Unpopular to parents demand, students were often directed away from academics and more towards socializing. The disco sound came in with a duck, The Disco Duck. Students found that the only thing better than dancing to disco was skating to it. Rollerworld, which opened in Octo- ber '76, became the new hot spot, giving students something better to do on week- ends. Other outlets for energy or boredom were movies and T.V. Two of the biggest pictures that were released were Rocky and King Kong. King Kzmg was a revamp of the old monster movie, most people saw it for the novelty. Rocky was about a fighter who never had an even break, but still makes it big. The movies were completely sold out for months. T.V. began a new trend by producing 12 hour series pro- grams. The book Roots inspired the tele- vision program that was an instant hit. It was the most watched show ever. It was about a black man tracing back his family through the period of slavery. Looked at in a general perspective a school included a multitude of students participating in a wide range of things. A dance or a club as a whole was not unique. The uniqueness lie in the individual, the way an individual spent time. LIVE I U 5 YUM GUM Mad Dog Palace went through many changes.

H J M N N Brand New The marching season began on a very uncertain note. Directors Mr. Gerald Bartlett, and Mr. Herbert Beem, had both left after 18 years at the head of the band. The band members got their first look at the new director, Mr. John Campbell, at band camp in August. After what one marcher described as the best week of band in four years, the band and Mr. Campbell, with assistant Mr. Larry Tall- man, swept through an extremely success- ful marching season. Highlighted at the beginning of the year was an appearance at Michigan State's Band Day, followed by a letter from Mr. Kenneth Bloomquist, Director of Bands at MSU, commending the band on their fine performance.

For one thing, the opportunities for fun were almost double those of anywhere else. ELHS students could watch Big Ten athle- tics live all year round, without go- ing further than a few miles from home. Moo U also attracted popu- lar music greats from all over the country, and movies were shown every weekend for cut prices. The university had fantastic resources that could be used by high school students. A sports school was put on every summer for high school stu- dents from all over the state, and workshops to learn or improve vari- ous skills and activites were put on from time to time. The MSU Lecture- Concert series constantly hosted prom- inent speakers, musicians, dancers and plays. And there were always plenty of opportunities for field trips to campus. Michigan State made the city more liberal than it might other- wise have been, and also made the city more susceptible to fads, which could be a lot of fun! Because of MSU, there were always new faces both in the town and in school. Over- all, the advantages of having MSU here were tremendous!

Debate 17 PURTR IT OF ELHS Having been at East Lansing High School for several years, Portrait , the school newspaper, was already establishing itself as an institution. Every other Friday, students flocked to the front lobby to receive their personal copies of the publication. Of particular interest were the editorials, letters-to-the-editor, and the feature section. Behind the scene, time-consuming steps were involved in the process of putting together the Portrait . Ideas for articles had to be formulated. Then came interviews and research. When completed, the prop- er type size had to be selected so that the columns could be spaced correctly on the layout. Layouts were then pasted up , a process by which the issue is prepared for the printer. The resulting paper was not only ex- amined by Advisor Christie Nichols, but also sent to a professional for constructive criticism and evaluation. 18 Portrait wh A INTENT Playing a key role in the publication of the Portrait , editor-in-chief Sally Deren- goski reviews a past issue looking for means of improvement. - if 4 rf 4 4 PREPARATION Before sending his page to the printer, Paul Benington, sports editor, must paste up the components of the layout onto one sheet.

God- spell was sold out every night, the cast re- ceived standing ovations for their fantastic performances. Godspell was an extremely difficult play to put together, the cast had to be picked, the costumes and the set had to be just right. After working out most of the difficulties, the play ran into one more problem. A few Jewish families in the community were protesting that God- spell was not an appropriate play for a high school to present. After discussing it with the school board and other authorities, the production of Godspell went on. Once'again Godspell followed the fall play tradition by having only a few leads. There were ten lead parts and not one star of the show. Then ten stars of Godspell were Marea Tesseris, Molly Brennan, Rene Flemings, Laurel Hine, Andrea Rutledge, Jim Bergmann, Chuck Carrol, Pete Me- inke, Eric Walden, and Mark Ruhala. One interesting point of the play was that the set was made of simple rope knots designed by Alan Kubala. Only the costumes were elaborate in their design. The color of the clothes ranged from hot pink and luminous green dresses to one tuxedo that was black with red and yellow stripes. The Producer- Director was Kate Veihl, and the play had a student director, Caren Lieberman. Steve Page and the new band director, John Campbell made up half of the band, they sang On The Willows, and partic- ipated in the show. There were a great number of people who helped with the production, but weren't seen on the night of the show.

On its own, the Spanish Club sponsored a rural school in the Honduras in Central America. Included in this sponsoring was the sending of food and supplies to the school and homes around that area. Part of the International Club's plans this year were to have a dance with a Latin American Band, a potluck dinner, and donate goods all around the world. About the 6th week of school the International Club had its first big activity, an international food tasting day. Foods from pizza to pie were brought by some very ambitious members to the school and the student body DUG EEEHTB- .. a , 5 TRY ONE The courageous Emeka Ezera is the first to try a foreign treat.

Clubs 25 Sharing a part of your learning with someone else made you feel so much better. This was the way most of the people in Porpoise Club felt. They were a volunteer group that taught children and adults how to swim. Most of these volunteers were great with little children, they taught them at their own pace, and also helped their parents learn how to teach their own chil- dren. The group's advisor is Randy Hager- man. During the school year they had parties and other group activities. They also, at the end of the year, take a group trip to such places as Cedar Point. When the school year ends their work isn't over, most of the group worked at a summer pool being a life guard or helping children . . . Should Soccer Club become a Varsity sport? This question was asked for a couple of years and the answer was always the same, no. The school board believed that there just wasn't enough money. They need paid coaches, uniforms, bus transportation, and more varsity letters. So Soccer Club stayed a club. They also went by the policy made for the club, they could only play three games. This meant that if they won all three games and had a chance to go to states they cou1dn't, because of the policy. The Soccer Club was coached and sponsored by Nick Archer, a phys ed teacher at Mc- Donald Middle School. They were driven to their games by their parents, who were happy to support the team.

Andy Kruse, and Mike Duffy, some members of Y STRATEGY Bob Weeke, Jerry Mannausa, n S the hockey club, plan for a Saturday night game. As winter sparked up, the hockey and racquet clubs proceeded. The snow brought many exciting things to many of the sports. The hockey club, coached by Gary Bowman, brought much excitement. For instance, their toughest game against Lansing Cath- olic Central turned out to be a dream of happiness to everyone. As the crowds weren't the biggest, the real fans that were there supported the team in a special way. There were 15 players on the team and 8 were seniors. Bob Weeks, a senior, who helped the team through many rough spots, brought them back with the many goals he made and assisted. He mentioned, I am planning to go on with hockey in college if I'm lucky. The racquet club gave many advantages to the students. Harold Shelton, who was in charge of the program, said, Not many students came to all the meetings but more showed up for the actual playing of the games. There were 10 students involved in the club and the games played were mainly tennis, badminton, and a little ping pong. On Saturday mornings the club usually got together to play. 4 READY Louie Hillman winds up to take the slap shot.

America! America! God shed His grace on thee, and crown thy good with brother- hood, From sea to shining sea. That song is familiar to all Americans. It was also clear in the minds of all ELHS students, except of course, to a few foreign students who sometimes were forgotten. And what was it like to come to a foreign country? What was it like to come to this school? Over twenty-five foreign students at- tended ELHS this year. Many of the stu- dents were here because their parents were employed, involved in special programs, or studying at M.S.U. Most of the students agreed that this school is very different from the schools they attended in their own countries. Many of the students liked our system of they themselves being able to choose their own courses and teachers, however, many disliked some of the required classes and the five class per day requirement. A few of the students also missed the fact that this school did not have a geography class. The students all enjoyed the many extra- curricular activities ELHS had to offer. One girl said she liked the freedom of speech here and when asked if women have more rights in America she replied excit- edly, Oh yes, 10,000 tons more. Is ELHS a friendly atmosphere? CAmer- ica the Beautiful?J According to most of the foreign students, making friends at the school has been extremely difficult. One girl who could barely speak English said she felt very nervous and frustrated talking with the girls here although most were kind and helpful. One boy said, There are too many students that just fool around and don't study. Another student said, Kids in class laugh at you sometimes if you say something wrong. But as the school year had progressed the students said they were feeling more like they belonged here. It has been a good experience they concluded. And so the last verse was finally sung. And all joined in . . . America! America! God shed his grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood, From sea to shining sea. 32 Foreign Students '-Q 4 SOCCER?

Some coaches showed no mercy when it came to practicing and shaping up a tip- top team. Too often, this preparation part of the sport went unnoticed by spectators. The school media usually only publicized the team records, the superstars, and may- be the point spread of the basketball games against Lansing Everett. But what about looking at the backbone, the other 90fZ1 of the time put into a sport that is never noticed during the play of the event? Besides the reward of winning there was the glory in the way of personal satis- faction from practicing and working out. Athletes gave up a lot to excel in their sport. Sacrifices could've been anything from school activities because of practice, food to stay at a lower weight class, or even next season's sport because of an injury. The excitement of a sport was almost never-ending. Bus rides to games were often action-packed with screaming and cheering. Before events teammates often engaged in a special cheer to get psyched- up, and the next day's and last night's games were always talked about during school. Even at the time of the event itself when the athlete got serious the audiences enthusiasm usually took over. The cycle of a sports team was continu- ous. Practice, mental preparation, anti- cipation, the game, the end. What came next? Practice, of course. State champs, a record of 2-10.

V TIME OUT Quarterback Doug Brown checks on some mid game strategy with Coach Smith during the Battle Creek Central game, won, of I e a course, by the Trojans. Undefeated. How else should your foot- ball career end? For this year's seniors, there was no other way. The team marched through nine weeks of battle, claiming victory after victory, straight to the undis- puted Conference championship and a 3rd ranking in the state polls. Defense, Coach Smith's favorite word, was the key to this tremendous season. Although the Trojans only recorded one shutout, a 48-0 thrash- ing of jackson Parkside, the starting de- fensive squad actually held two other op- ponents, Sexton and Holt, without a score. They also stopped Everett and Eastern with one touchdown apiece and held Harry Hill to a mere field goal. However, you obviously cannot forget the offense. The potent offense rolled to an equally tremen- dous season, highlighted by a strange new device called a passing attack. This, com- bined with the powerhouse running that characterizes all teams racked up 210 points to the opponents 55. he Varsity Football 37 All keyed up for their first game they were ready for anything. Their offense was set and ready to put some points on the board, their defense was ready to attack any play that came their way. All during the game they proved that hours of prac- tice could really build up a team. When the game was over, they had their first victory under their belt, winning that game by 26 points. The rest of the season was no exception. Game after game went in favor. Proving their might every game the team never lost one single contest. They had a perfect season with a record of 8-0. lt'li' K j ' 5iW'JU' ' 1 'h 1 1 ff 1 1-f - . -.-iwf ,sl I 4' Q .,, fw4,..1? ft-, A v.- F i ,L,,,?g ui .... i to wi figfef , ' :g e .

They were one of the biggest Freshman groups, and as said by Delano Tucker, coach of the white team, They were better than I originally thought, they were ex- tremely lucky and got some good breaks. He also stated they were very cohesive. The white team went undefeated except for the game against Ionia when the two teams, both blue and white, combined. The blue team, coached by Phil Winston, had a learning season. Coach Winston explained that, They learned a lot about the game of football. Their skills improved and that helped them throughout the sea- son. The biggest game for the blue team was their only game they won against Waverly West. Steve Denniston made two touchdowns and Brad Bunce made one. Both teams had a lot of togetherness which made the season a lot better. 4 SUSPENSE Trying for the interception is Hugh McDiamid and reaching out to clutch the ball is Dan Dolan.

Overall, however, the golfers had a great compe- titive season, finishing 13-4, with a 12-2 record in the conference.

The team consisted of nine very talented young golfers. Standouts Chris Page and Steve McKinney usually seemed to set the pace. The team as a whole did an excep- tionally good job for their new assistant coach Bob Thomson. Coach Schultz re- marked, Bob did a super job with the kids and they all put forth a great deal of effort for him. The attitude was super through- out all of the golf teams. .What really pepped their spirit up was the fact that all nine players participated in a match. The J.V. had a successful season ending up with a 15-4 record. Beth Sierra, Vic Whipp and Chad Vincent were the teams steadiest golfers. The fore matches that the team lost were close in the score. Coach Schultz was really impressed with the en- thusiasm and attendance at practices and matches. He concluded, the team had a very positive attitude. Their wins were overpowering and their defeats were close. Look for them next year to be a big and helpful part of the Varsity team. 4 TECHNIQUE Beth Sierra shows she has the best swing on the team. Jv Golf 45 Tenni Ali U On a wet, dreary day the girls traveled to Pioneer with hopes of winning their first match. They were upset, losing their match 5-2. They didn't give up hope and went on to win their next five matches in a row. Just like last year the girls won the Capital Area Conference, taking every flight. Sally Schaberg, the team's no. 1 singles player took the first seed. No. 2 sin- gles player, Suzanne Asher, took the 2nd seed followed by Robin Allman and Shelly Ireland taking the third and fourth seeds respectively. Sally Derengoski and Pam Hacker were no. 1 doubles, falling closely behind were Betsy Desjardins and Jamie Hoffman 2nd doubles and Jill Lemke with Jenny Smith were 3rd seat doubles. The girls were under great pressure since last year they were victorious in the state match- es. Their hopes of going to the states dimin- ished during the regionals because only the top two teams could go to the states and the girls came in third. It wasn't a bad season, though, they ended up with a rec- ord of 9-3. 46 Girls Tennis A STYLE Good form is essential in tennis and that's exactly what Suzanne Asher has.

For the fourth straight year, the girl's swimming team captured the state champ- ionship. Under the coaching of Ned Ben- net, the Trojans finished the season with a 9-0-1 record, along with the CAC title. Twenty girls made up the Varsity team, the majority being sophomores and juniors. Their season began September 24th with an easy win over Okemos. Besides a tie against the powerful A.A. Pioneer team, the girls displayed a perfect season. In the CAC meet, the girls took first place in stride. Dominating every event, they also made up the entire State Journal Honor Roll. Seven girls qualified for the All-American team: Lorie Bird, Keli Emerson, Ann Heusner, julia Medick, Jan Piper, Romi Richards, and Val Rut- ledge. The State Meet was held December 3rd and 4th in Mt. Pleasant. Among the team's qualifiers, Janet Chaffee placed ninth in Diving, and the All-American relay team improved their last years time by 4 seconds.

Lori works on her speciality, one of the events she swims is the 100 yard backstroke. A HERE I AM Before a meet divers must fill out a diving sheet. Shelly Troum1an is telling Ther-me Lyon, a varsity diver, just what dive she's in- tending to do. . Q f s W w Ni Y IN THE AIR Practice before the meet is an important aspect in order to be prepared. Rae Lea Richards warms up by working on some sprint starts. The blue and white rookies kicked their way to three victories. Freshmen swimming was introduced last year, and for the second year Josie Wojtowicz was the coach. Last year the team only had eight girls on the squad. This year with enthusiasm the number went up to eight- een girls, six of whom were divers. The girls had long hard practices which started at 3: 15 every day and were over by 5:30. WVhen each workout was through the girls had to swim at least two and a half miles. No team can get along with- out their managers, and the girls main manager was Peter Funk, assisted by jenny Weil and Kimsey Jordan. The girls had their ups and downs during the season and ended up with a record of 3 and 4. Coach Wojtowicz remarked, Toward the end of our season some of the girls really looked good, and will H be an asset to the varsity team next year A ONCE MORE Warming up before a meet Lisa Zucker begins practicing her backstroke start.

Hoardes of bodies sprinted toward the first turn of the grueling three-mile course. In the end, weary runners crossed the finish line, only one man able to claim he's the best. The scene: a typical cross country meet, and more often than not, that first-place honor went to Greg Seaman, our number one man. Greg ran an outstanding best time of 15:43, establishing himself as one of the conference leaders. However, cross country is a team sport, and depth proved responsible for most team wins. During the season, Coach Phil Wooledge reasoned, We're doing well because there's no peck- ing order. When one guy has a bad day, someone else takes over for him. Senior harrier Bob West crossed the line ahead of most contenders to become our usual second man, while juniors Jim Bax- ter, Bruce Bunce, and Tim Loughrin showed strength that would carry into next year. The biggest surprise on the team, however, was freshman Steve Under- wood. Placing himself solidly in the top five throughout the season, Steve showed the makings of a future quality runner. Overall, it was a profitable season for the harriers as they suffered only two de- feats and finished second in the Capital Area Conference behind state powerhouse Holt. 52 Varsity Cross Country A Varsity Cross Country Team: Fronl row: jim Baxter, Bruce Bunce, Tim Loughrin, Will Tishltoff, Steve Underwood.

After tromping over open fareway, through grassy fields, and be- tween trees, teammates Steve Underwood, john Hunter, and Tim Loughrin were able to pass their Eastern foe before reaching the footpath. V UPSET Hopes for a conference championship were diminished when Sexton visited the Trojan turf and ran their best meet of the year. Through- out the race, Jim Baxter was forced to struggle with several Big Reds, giving them the psycho- logical advantage they needed to win. 4 ADMIRABLE Though eros country is a team sport, the individual athlete is responsible for his own performance. However, by giving his utmost, a number-one man like Greg Seaman can inspire the entire team to a better race.

Cross Country A PREPARATION Huddled together before a meet, members of the J.V. cross country team stretch their muscles. Such a warm-up is essential for the prevention of strains and pulls, and also helps the runner get the most out of his stride during the race. P NEW RECRUITS In addition to five girls, the team acquired another coach, Chuck Pollard Cleftl. He joined Coach Phil Wooledge, who is flanked by Dawn Juola, Kathryn Crawley, Janine Crawley, and Emily Dalley. Y ROOKIE In order to uphold tradition, the varsity team members chose one newcomer as the subject of initiation. Amidst the encourage- ment of M.S.U. students, Eric Thompson, the unlucky victim, was baptized in the Red Cedar. WR Z Hey, there are GIRLS out on that course! Yes, for the first time in East Lansing history there were girls running on the cross country team. Numbering five, there were just enough of them to create a girl's varsity team. However, school officials rejected the idea and the female harriers were obliged to run with their male counterparts on the Junior Varsity squad. This was no dishonor to the girls, though, because they teamed up with one of the finest J.V. cross country teams in the area. Throughout the season the Jayvees contin- ually ran their opponents into the ground, registering perfect scores on several oc- casions and entering the conference meet undefeated. In the absence of two team members and despite the 1-2 finish of Will Tishkoff and Scott Melcer, they had to settle for second place at the conference meet and a share of the conference title with the Holt jayvees.

That's one problem the girl's Varsity basketball team faced with their new coach Roger Bjornstad. Another adjustment was playing man-to-man de- fense, and the new 'blue and green' offense they had to learn. The team was basically a young one consisting of four seniors, six juniors, and three sophomores. Senior guard Kiela Harper helped lead the team to the very positive attitude they displayed throughout the season. Another thing that contributed to the attitude was that they had a very strong bench, so everyone could play. Even though the season had a disappointing win-loss record, they're look- ing forward to next year with much en- thusiasm. 4 JUMP BALL Jayme Phelps C405 goes up for a jump ball against Holt's Cordes as Kiela Harper C103 is ready to go.

Coached by Pat DiPuma, the J.V. team had some tough games, which were proven by the Holt game when they only lost by one point. Such memories will al- ways linger on, but the goal was accom- plished. Coach DiPuma said, The goal of the basketball program was to develop man-to-man defensive playing. They had a lot to learn, but they came a long way. The team itself, as stated by Coach DiPuma, was that, they were a super group of kids. They had developed well as individuals and have molded together well as team players. As the J.V. worked hard and accomplished what was set out to be, they also had a lot of spirit. They learned what it meant to be a serious basketball player, said Coach DiPuma. The Freshman team, coached by Leanna Bordner were more together as a group, especially for freshman. One tough game for them was against Grand Ledge. They were ahead by 14 at the beginning, and went behind by 2 at the half. Then went down by 10 points and won by 10g 36-46. We had a terrible time in the third quar- ters in every game. She felt that the prac- tices were just as important as the games were. The improvement of skills was tre- mendous because they were at varied levels of basketball, but the improvement of the whole team made it work. 4 REACHING Up for the jump ball goes Mary O'Leary C403 in the Hill game, where Anita Sturdi- vant C325 readily waits for the ball.

R-O-W-D-I-E that's the way you spell cheerleading! The Freshman cheerleaders started out, not knowing anyone, any cheers, or any mounts. Catching on quick- ly they produced a squad that would ex- citingly stand out. They went to camp Wakesma and that helped them get a lot closer as friends as well as a squad. A new coach gave the girls a big advantage, be- cause for the first season they had a fresh- man coach, Becky Rand, or as some re- member her, Becky Clifford. She had been a cheerleader at East Lansing for a year and a half. For eight girls having never cheered before, by the end of the season they showed great improvement and were quite refined, Becky stated. The j.V. started their season by going to camp in Midland where they captured lst place in cheerleading competition. The squad consisted of 6 sophomores and 2 jun- iors. In her second year coaching, Jan Bamford helped them through another season. It was a fantastic season, she exclaimed. The J.V. football team went undefeated so the cheerleaders really had something to cheer about. The squad backed the football team up not only with their cheers, but also with enthusiasm. The Varsity squad did many things throughout the season. They started out by going to camp in Ann Arbor, in late June. There they received 3rd place and a trophy. Along with that they also com- peted in National competition at the Lan- sing Civic Center. A new coach, Michelle Ouellette, who is a kindergarten teacher at Pinecrest, helped make the season well worth working for. A super group of girls made it easier, she explained. As'the football team put in an excep- tional season and went undefeated so did the Varsity cheerleaders. They backed their team up 100 percent! Miss Ouellette closed with, It's been a super season and the school spirit has been fantastic! 4 Junior Varsity Cheerleaders: Front row: Fonda Brewer, Lynn Conrad, Mimi Sparro Pam Spagnuolo.

Hard work started up again as the squads had less time to practice because the season was just around the cor- ner. The freshman squad had four brand new girls that had to learn from scratch, but as shown at the first game it was well worth all the practice. The squad also participated in a small clinic at Lansing Catholic Cen- tral. Although the crowds were small the girls showed enthusiasm for those that were there, and of course-their team! ! New mounts and cheers made up the Junior Varsity squad. Even though there were four new girls the squad did a lot of progressing. They did new mounts and put them to new cheers which brought a lot of practicing and falling off at games, but towards the end of the season the squad seemed to be very solid. The season started and the Varsity squad Went to work. With the same seven from football, a new addition was made. They knew they had some switching to do and that meant a lot of work with little time. With help from each other they showed great experience out on the floor. The squad consisted of 2 seniors, Robbie Grange, and Amy Haga and 6 juniors. They helped to put the pep rallies together by getting the other squads together and working out posi- tions and other little things. Despite the poor record of the team, the cheerleaders kept a smile on their faces and stayed close to it! ! Stand Up for the Trojans! !

The stands were filling, basketball play- ers were inside the lockeroom nervously awaiting the game to begin and suddenly crash! ! !, the captain of the team broke through the banner and charged out onto the basketball court. The band ignited everyone's spirit, as they struck up the fight songs. Then the spotlight was on the flag on the gym wall and the drum roll was cued by Mr. Campbell. After everyone had saluted the flag and the band stopped play- ing, the lights came on and the game was ready to be played. The band also played between quarters and occupied the student body. The basketball fans noticed something different about the band compared with previous years. For example, it was very noticeable that there were not any distrac- tive individual performances among the band during the game. It was also observed that there was a new band director, Mr. Cambell, who gained the interest of many during the marching and concert seasons. He could be seen vigorously conducting songs like Sing, Saturday in the Park, Chko and the Man, and Nothing from Nothing. The selection of songs was a lot better too, songs that appealed to the audience and not just the band members. There was great interest in the pep band and right- fully so. 5 GAME TIME Dave Cross and Dave Hard- ing play the Olymplkzd Fanfare before the beginning of the game. Pep Band Feature 65 553' M Q1 sg?

Y CONCENTRATED SHOOTING Bill Staple- ton led and broke records for shooting and this shot was in the last home game of the season, against Waverly, where we were victorious! ! THEC C A medium sized orange and black ball brought a long season for many. the goal was set at the beginning of the season by the coach and the team. We set our goal as 3rd place in our conference as we did not feel we could de-throne Everett or Eastern, replied Coach Don Ashdown. The team didn't win 3rd spot alone, but shared it with Sexton and Holt. There were six seniors on the team and four that started. The four starters were Bill Staple- ton, Doug Brown, Tim Eick, and Tim Young. The two other seniors who helped a great deal were Terry Rycenga and Mike McRae. As the team felt they reached their goal they also were disappointed in the way they played away from home. Coach Ashdown mentioned, We were not men- tally ready for most of the games away from home during the first half of the sea- son. The best game showed to be against Sexton at our gym. We played excellent and Sexton played very well, which gave the fans a great game to watch. Bill Staple- ton scored 33 points and David Porter for Sexton scored 24 points. Coach Ashdown closed with, We did not have an outstand- ing team but when our players were fired up and were having a good night, we could have played with anyone. The team worked hard and played together very well at home, but on the road we had our prob- lems. Most of the problems centered around our defensive play. The team went on to the districts and lost in their first game, but played it out until the end as shown during their season. Varsity Basketball 67 GBLLLNT 68 JV Basketball Striving every bit of the way, the Junior Varsity Basketball team made a gallant effort at a winning season, falling short 7-12. The entire team was composed of sophomores, most having had experience with freshman basketball. Another person well-known to frosh basketall was JV coach, Jesse Turner. Despite this experience, the Trojans encountered many tough teams that were too hot to handle. They started their sea- son with three consecutive wins, however then they had to battle for their four re- maining victories. The student body supported the team, showing up early, cheering for the JV Trojans. While Varsity basketball had a little better luck, both teams excited their fans. It was a year of thrilling basketball for the Lansing area, with Eastern and Everett the big teams to watch. But, East Lansing kept their eyes on JV Basketball, for next year's five starting spots on the Varsity team.

A I it Jv Basketball 69 70 Frosh Basketball If there was a word that could describe the freshman basketball team, it would be progress. With both the A and B teams doing about the same, the freshman season was a time for experience and funda- mentals which coach Roger Bjorn- stad, the A coach pointed out. The B team was coached by Howard Madsen, who was in his first year as coach. He took over the position previously held by Jesse Turner the junior varsity coach. Despite their record, they undoubtedly showed great promise and potential. Part of the reason for their record could be attributed to the fact that it was their first year of real com- petition. The year had a lot of time for fun and much improvement was made towards a great team.

These were comments of several members of the Girls' Gymnastics Team. Varsity veterans sweeped through their season with 14 wins, no losses. And J.V. lost only l out of 6 meets. From the two teams, 10 girls qualified for the Regionals. Coach June Szypula commented on her talented teams saying that since they had been scoring nearly an 8.0 average- which was a very high score for high school competition-the regionals looked prom- ising. As it turned out, they won with great ease. Competing with approximately 25 teams and nearly 80 girls in each event, 10 gymnasts each qualified in at least 1 event for the State Meet. Although com- petition was challenging, the team placed second in the State, anticipating a success- ful season for next year. 72 Girls Gymnastics if STRUNCTURED FORM Posin gt e W ' 'for the audience, Betsy f 1 , Ti es her floor act.

Stamina Combining brute strength, agility, grace, and concentration, men's gymnastics is the sport of a truly versatile athlete. How- ever, without hours of practice toning up muscles and perfecting routines, even the finest sportsman is useless to the team. The Trojan tumblers, therefore, spent their afternoons in the upper gym each day working out on. the various apparatus with the aid of coach Jack Bamford. The result: a tough, competitive team and some high- caliber individuals. Senior Bill Nonnamaker reflected, We've done a lot better this year than we expected, and the next few years we should be even better with all of the under- classmen on the team. Bill himself played an important role in East Lansing's suc- cess, as he was elected captain by his team- mates and competed as the Trojan's all- around gymnast.

Y POWER Tom Prior, forcefully bringing down his Harry Hill opponent to an easy win. ,,.-ff Up and down would describe the varsity wrestling season. It gave the grapplers a fighting incentive, and propelled them to win six consecutive dual meets. Two big stand outs were Matt Curtis and Steve Maidlow who both made the class A all-star team. Only being CoachTorrez's second year with the team, he brought back some qualities, which they had had in past years. Over all, the team had a fairly good season considering the development of the program. Being such a young team will benefit in the future.

Wrestling's not really intro- duced until high school, not like other Lan- sing area schools where it is introduced and used competitively in their middle schools. Troubles faced the freshmen squad. They did not have enough weight divisions, giv- ing their opponents a win by forfeit. J.V. grapplers, a little more fortunate, had a few more weight divisions, which gave them a better chance of winning. The -I.V.'s season compared with previous years showed a considerable improvement. Coach Mario Torrez said that in future years the wrestling program would improve immensely, so as to lessen the chance of forfeits. A OVERPOWERING J. Howard is trapping his opponent against the mats.

Although attendance was low, that didn't stop any of the spikers from making it a great season. Up until the second Eastern game the J.V. spikers had a perfect season. Being defeated by the Quakers was a hard loss, with a close score of 16-14, 5-15 and 2-15. Their only other loss was to Holt. They just couldn't get it together. Because of their higher skill level none of the other teams posed a problem for the fierce j.V. team. Also it was a good season for the Varsity spikers. The team as a whole had no real superstars, just a lot of really reliable peo- ple to back up each other. The spikers were hit with many injuries and illnesses, but were able to pull through because of the great back up given to the team by the equally skilled bench. The netters weren't really what you could have called a spiking team but with the help of Stewart Youare, a former Aus- trian Olympic volleyball star, they really improved their spiking ability. The competition was definately tough, especially against cross town rivals, East- ern Quakers and Haslett Vikings. Eastern defeated the netters twice, each game was close with scores of 3-15, 5-15, the first time they met. The second time Eastern had to come from behind to barely nip them with scores of 7-9, 15-6 and 8-15. The team had a bad night when they met the Vikes for the second time. Losing a rough game, the netters were defeated with a score of 15-9, 4-15 and 12-15. All in all the team ended up their season with a good record even though they came in runners- up to Eastern. In the districts Trojan spikers finally beat Eastern to become dis- trict champions.

In his first year of coaching at a high school level Bernie Reuter did a great job. He re- marked, Coaching is notf without its hassles, to be honest, and it's even more time consuming than I expected. But there was a great group of people out for skiing this year, and the parental support was tremendous! I They also had two super volunteer coaches, Mr. Dick Mas- ters, and Mr. George Foster, Jr. Without a doubt they played a major role in our teams success this year!-! replied Coach Reuter. The guys team was loaded with experience since most were on the team last year. They competed in dual meet competition against teams from all over Southeastern Michigan. The most spectacular dual meet was the Okemos meet. Okemos and East Lansing were probably theltwo best teams in South- eastern Michigan, and they had closeness and friendship which matched with the rivalry that existed. The guys won the meet with scores just tenths or even hun- dredths of seconds separating the finishes. The boys finished well and got 2nd place in the state meet. 10 State 4 CLEARING IT Eric Bubolz gets down low to pick up speed while clearing the gate.

The falling leaves and the frost that came started the girls ski team thinking about their season. And when that first big snow came they were working out by taking time trials and practice runs. They were headed by Bernie Reuter who showed to be very successful by the record they held. The girls team started the year with only three girls with experience, Keli Emerson, Sue Jennings, and Dianna Annas. They also had three other girls that started without experience, but vol- unteer coaches George Foster, Jr., and Dick Masters were a tremendous help. The most spectacular dual meet for the girls was against Okemos. The Lansing Ski Club was home for both teams which made it that much more exciting for the two teams. When the totals were all in, they found they had won by just a few points in both girls and guys competition. Ending up the season with a 8-l record pleased the girls team since much work and practice was done in preparation for the season. Then in going to the state meet they placed in the rough competition. 4 STRIVING Coming to the end Keli Emerson brushes by a gate. Girl's Skiing 87 Two intramural sports that weren't publicized much were the chess team and the ping-pong tournament. The chess team outwitted all of their opponents, wrapping up their season with a record of 8-0. With sponsor Bill Prince, they then garnished their undefeated season with a trophy won at the Central Michigan Chess League. While the chess team was having a very successful season, there was a ping-pong tournament going on at the recreation cen- ter in Valley Court Park. Students com- peted against each other in an elimination process. Three trophies were awarded, with Paul Cole taking first followed by Tom Stanulis and Jon Veldman.

The Bowling League and Church Basket- ball were two of the more organized ac- tivities in the intramural program. The Bowling League, meeting every Monday at Marvelanes Bowling Alley, got a full 2M hours of bowling in for each member. The league was directed by Leo Smedley. Church Basketball, made up of seven teams, practiced about three times a week and had numerous well-played night games in the gym. Mr. Tucker's team walked away with the title of local champs.

For example, there was Saturday morning sports, which included basketball and badminton, where you could come at will, shoot around, maybe get into a game for just exercise and fun. On the other hand there was War games organized by a group of students who were intrigued by diverse games. This was somewhat relaxing but mostly of serious concentration. For instance, they enjoyed a game called Dungeons and Dragons which was an example of the more ad- vanced types of games they played. 92 Intramurals mmlfff .Q fam 'Q A A WAR GAMES Standing: Herb Grunau, Fritz, Freiheit.

But if you have ever spoken with a staff member, they will not hesitate to tell you of their hair-raising experiences in this most unusual class. For instance, there was the time when a student had just finished typing his copy when he finally noticed, after becoming so engulfed in his own work, that there was no ribbon in the typewriter. Members of the year- book staff had to cope with these unex- pected consequences.

There was an organization by the name of East Lansing High School. Now this organization was very original, in that it offered an overwhelming amount of op- portunities to students who were otherwise not occupied. There were options for every- one to choose from. You could blow on your oboe in Orchestra until your oxygen ran out, or type an outline of one hundred obscene words in Office Block. Perhaps you would rather have observed the mak- ing of an omelette or sewed an orange out- fit in Open Lab. If you had omitted these, choices, then Organic Chemistry was what you ought to take. You would not only learn about orbitals and how osmosis oc- currs, but also that the ozone is a form of oxygen produced by electricityg that has an odd odor like that of weak chlorine, and that it is a strong oxidizing agent. If things weren't too orderly in your school life, you could always bring your troubles to Mrs. Oxender, who would give you an honest opinion. Although this organization was very old, it would always offer opportunities for everyone. Y WHAT'S COOKIN'?

Wfhile some pupils were work- ing diligently on their Pre-Calculus, Psy- chology, and Physics, others were puffing away on smoker's hill. For these passive students, school was all play, no work. Yet there were persons whose purpose it was to pass the class. They planned on being present with pen, pencil, and paper in hand. As many students found out, they weren't as prepared as they had thought. The Presidency required a passion for past presidents and an extensive written report at the end of the term, while Probability and Statistics consisted of pages of proofs and plenty of problems. Students also com- piled data from several surveys taken out of the classroom. Participatory Govern- ment gave students a chance to prove their point and polish up on their oral presen- tations, by taking the pressure off the panic button. And Psychology was an un- predictable class, where pandemonium could break loose at any time. Various types of behavior and reaction patterns such as these were studied in class. And now let's ponder on more pleasant subjects such as Prints, where you could have a party with paper, pastels, and paste. In Painting I you could paint polka-dots or pink pansies on the pocket of your pants since you never preferred the ugly plaid pattern anyway. And probably the class which most students progressed in was Personal Conditioning where each person pursued his own goal with much persever- ance. Many would be pooped after playing water polo or ping-pong.

Academics lll Quiet? R you kidding? School was rarely quiet. The library was full of conversations over reference books, reading material and research papers. Clicking sounds could be heard coming from Refrtsher Typing, where students were brushing up on their skills. In the Math wing, discussions of quadrilaterals, right triangles, reciprocals and rational num- bers could be heard. The Science wing was usually rowdy. Separating unknown ele- ments in Qualitative Analysis and research- ing radiation added to the liveliness. Rec- ognizing a way to get out of the quagrnire of a pop-quiz could bring rewards. Read- ing the graffiti on tables and walls could be a great cure for boredom. At home, listening to the radio helped many students refrain from sleeping while doing their homework. Getting rowdy was a good way to break up the routine of school. 112 Academics A RETREAT Tim Bartlett finds a quiet read- ing corner in the library.

But studying and students didn't go together even though every night most of the scholars pulled out of their sacks some sort of homework. Whether it was Spanish, State and Local, Sexism in Lit- erature, or practicing to become a superb musician, it's all studying. Sculpture was an easy going class. Sculp- ting copper, clay and papier mache is the thing for future sculptors. Speech was a super class to take to get over those oral re- port jitters. Students did speeches on every- thing from making cherries jubilee to con- vincing the class they're right on a particu- lar point. A new personality was added to the band wing. Namely, John Campbell. He added a new atmosphere to the bands. Taking the place of last year's director, Gerald Bartlett, John Campbell formed one of the best marching bands in EL his- tory. He also kept up the concert bands reputation which Mr. Bartlett created over the years. Symphonic orchestra was also directed by someone new, Ann Bloom- quist. She planned to have many concerts including a variety of different kinds of music. Soccer, a fast growing sport, was played by freshman girls, boys P.E. and the soccer and touch football clam. Spanish I, taught by Mr. Irribarren, taught all of the basics of Spanish, conjugating verb, counting and culture. Making a calendar to your specifications was what you could have done in silk screen.

Other things students had trouble with were teachers and textbooks, of which there were too many! Were you able to tolerate reading tons of novels in Twentieth Century Novel or spending a tremendous amount of time on those topic and thesis statements which English teachers thrive on? If these classes did not tickle your throat or totally thrill you, you were prob- ably among those who would twiddle their thumbs, or talk incessantly to their class- mates. This in turn would create a touchy teacher who refused to let two sit together at one table. 'Tis no wonder that most stu- dents did not treasure to tread on school grounds. Towards the end of the term, they were tired of trivial subjects, and were most thankful that school had terminated.

Semi-finalists must score high on the SAT and have a good academic record. The Finalists in the Merit Scholarship Competition, spon- sored by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, were: Joseph Duncan, Sharon Feldman, Jenifer Foster, Hilary Gonzalez, David Hicks, Katie Houston, Lauren Huyser, Dan Rovner, Nancy Schreiber, Randy Waskin and Felix Yen. Emeka Ezera and Icy Cade, both National Merit Semi-finalists, were announced winners in the National Achievement Scholarship Program for Outstanding Negro Students. Each year three students are named Achievement Award winners in English by the National Council of Teachers of English. The students were given one hour to write an impromptu essay on a learning experience. They also submitted a short story or essay. This year's Achievement Award winners were Leslie Birdwell, Carla Heathcote and Wendy Katz. The Elsingers, a group composed of 20 students, received a first division rating at the District Music Festival held in Feb- ruary. The Elsingers were invited to per- form at the Midwestern Music Conference held at the University of Michigan. As a result of their outstanding artistic calibre, they were selected by Friendship Ambas- sadors of New York City for a concert tour of Romania. The two week tour took place in July. 122 Achievers A SUPREME SUPERIORITY The National Merit Semi-finalists, top to bottom, include: Dan Rovner, Hilary Gonzalez, Nancy Schreiber, Lauren Huyser, Sharon Feldman, Icy Cade, Randy Waskin, Katie Houston and Emeka Ezera.

Members of the team were: Fritz Freiheit, Jon Karon, Wendy Katz, Ben Kohrman, John McKinney and Cathy Miller. Amy Cramer was na-med as representa- tive from the school in the Century Three Leaders Scholarship Competition, which was sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals. All par- ticipants took a current events examina- tion, and wrote an essay considering the possible problems that are facing the U.S.A. in its third century. Fifteen students became finalists in the Twentieth Annual Michigan Mathe- matics Prize Competition. After becoming a semi-finalist by taking a 40 question examination, students took another five problem test. The finalists were: Brian Feldman, Sharon Feldman, Hilary Gon- zalez, Greg Gullahorn, David Hicks, Lauren Huyser, Mary Kestenbaum, Anil Lalwani, John McKinney, David O'Don- nell, John Reid, Dan Rovner, David Snyder, Steve Walsh and Felix Yen. Dan Rovner did exceptionally well, placing in the top 40 finalists in the state. The winner of the General Mills spon- sored Family Leader of Tomorrow con- test was Janet Hackel.

When it comes to food, you always expect something different from our food service department. While many people can remember rainbow lunches , which consisted of color-coordinated food, the traditional hot lunch and the junk food lunch, the most memorable lunch will be the one that was prepared and ser- ved by students. A new program invented by George jones gave students the opportunity to be in full control of the food service. The students enrolled in a class in conjunction with the Careers Department, which gave them ex- perience in the preparation, and sales of food items, along with maintenance and bookkeeping. Students were trained by George Jones during the firsi term and within six weeks they were derving the student body. Also new this year was the ice cream store. A contest was held early in the year to find a name for the store and Kathy Torrey won 50 free ice cream cones with her entry The Licker Store. Students taking How- ward Madsen's class ran the store, along with MadDog Palace. Serving about 800 students a day, and attempting to recover 540,000 lost in previous years, it benefitted all. .1512 .fag I Down 4 BEHIND THE SCENES julie Ott prepares the tarter sauce for the fish.

A school filled with people is a school filled with people give or take a few hundred. On the first days of school going through the commons was almost impossible because of the hoardes of faceless people. After a short time the crowds began to thin out and cliques formed. Ever watched a group of people divide into sub-groups? The jocks went off into one corner and replayed Fri- day night's game, while some of the girls huddled around for new gossip about things that happened after the game Friday. The burn outs returned quietly to the hill and the more introverted types stuck to the walls or wandered the halls silently. There were some who didn't fit into any category and just sat around watching other groups divide. If someone from Lansing was asked what made EL students different from others, the answer was usually money. If the same question was asked to a student at EL the reply was usually education. But whatever the difference was, the dominant feeling was superiority. The feeling of being better could result between two schools, in one school, and even good friends. Some people were set in their ways and it took a big jolt to open their eyes. Something big enough to make them realize that they needed other people and how important friendship was. Sometimes it took a great joy or even a tragic sorrow to emphasize it. Take a closer look at the people you knew. Look past the cliques and fancy fronts. Surprisingly enough they'll probably be people no better or worse than anyone else. 128 Faces That Make A Crowd Y COMPANIONSHIP Good friends are for keeps.

Even before the school year began, the School Board was hard at work hiring our new Superintendent Dr. Robert Docking. The board members elected for four year terms, included Mary Thaden, president, and William Sharp, vice-president, both in their second terms. Also, Dr. Allan Abedor, secretary, Dr. Barry Gross, treasurer, Delores Moon, deputy treasurer, Dr. Gerald Park, deputy secretary and Rita Stout, trustee. Sopho- more Mark Edington was the high school representative.

A PRESENTATION Karen Sturdivant presents to the members of the council the new name for the Third World Coalition, Ebony. S-ESSIDN One of the serious, sometimes funny groups of the year was the Student Council. With the advice of Mr. Alan Martel, they came up with some new ideas and improved upon some others. For example, a very spirit stirring event was the first annual all school talent show. This show allowed almost any- body to participate in doing almost anything they wanted. Another was the new name for the club, Third World Coalition, which is Ebony. One of the improved ideas which was old was the student directory. So overall, the council was always on the job coming up with ideas that will be en- joyed by the students.

K COMMUNICATION Flashing through the wires to every house in East Lansing were the words H24 hour news on Channel 24 , a catchy phrase which became the slogan for the East Lansing Public School System's newly est- ablished cable television station. Funded partially by a grant from the National Cable Company, Channel 24 created a new method of both communication and learning. The station's main function was to keep the public informed about school affairs. Headed by Public Information Co-ordi- nator Jane McKinney, Channel 24 aired several shows a week during its first year pf operation. One weekly program View-3 point, featured Superintendent of Schools Robert Docking, and described new ad- ministrative ideas and decisions When there were no tapes running across the screen, 16 pages of up-to-datewritten news were displayed for 24 hours straight by means of a character generator. Viewers were quickly informed whether or' not school had been cancelled due to snow, or perhaps when the next School Board meeting was to be held. High School students soon got into the act as it was discovered that a television station could be a unique learning exper- ience. The television production class was given a demonstration of thelequipment involved, while seniors Mike Zivick and Libby Schmid did the camera work for Channel 24 is a Community Service credit. . .

High School head honcho Jerry Kusler is the epitome of con- geniality! 136 Administrators Through the every-day hassles of school, students sometimes lost sight of the fact that our administrators are human, too! Due to the large number of students that these brave persons are involved with, ad- ministrative decisions tended to seem im- personal from the point of the students. So we on Ceniad Staff decided to give our administrators a chance to voice their views on the following four questions: D What do you like! dislike about students at ELHS? , Mr. Kusler, Principal: I like the variety... We have students with very different back- grounds and interests . . .East Lansing kids involve themselves in the school and in community activities. Mrs. McMillan, Special Programs: I like their enthusiasm for school activities. . . Their enthusiasm for helping others. . . e.g. Community Service, Teacher Mostly they're bright, humorous, en- thusiastic, serious. . .I dislike how students treat each other sometimes--being nasty, ignoring others. . Dr. Meulendyke, Jr-Sr Divison Head: I do not like to describe ELHS students as though they are a single entity. . .I like the diversity. . .The students are, on the whole, outgoing, friendly, intelligent. . . they work hard for what they think is im- portant. . .It bothers me that sometimes they are not more caring and concerned about each and every one of their fellow students. Mr. Bologna,Frosh-Soph Division Head: EL students approach school with lots of spirit and zeal. . .They are intelligent and nice people, in most cases. L 25 Is there anything that you think is u- nique to ELHS in contrast l with other schools? Kusler: We are among a relative few schools able to offer such a variety in clas- ses and activites. . .Our community sup- ports the school extremely well. . .EL students assume the necessary responsibility to make our kind of school work. McMillan: Many things-We have a very heterogenous student body. . .There is a variety-ofprograms students can elect. . . 7! lilxtra-curricular activities are varied and popular. it .We have many programs using community resources. Meulendyke: EL students place a higher value on education., . .They're also more single-minded and giving of themselves in striving for high achievement scholastically and in athletics and other activities. Bologna: EL students are more active, and higher achievers than students at most schools. 37 Do you think high school students have changed since you were in high school? Kusler: The whole culture has changed. . . Those changes are reflected in the schoolg however, most of them are superficial-the way we talk, dress, the thing we do for en- tertainment. . .Our emotions, desires and disappointments--these don't change. McMillan: Communicaton is much faster via TV and satellite. . .US role in the world is more complex. . .Concerns about energy and food are fairly new, and diffi- cult to solve. Meulendyke: Kids haven't really changed. Only styles and fads change. . .Kids are more sophisticated and knowledgeable in some way. . more naive in others. . .They probably don't think differently, only ex- press themselves more freely. Bologna: Students today have more free- dom in every way. . .Both parents and the school have given students more respon- sibilities--for their own actions than ap- peared to be true in the late fifties. 4D Where did you go to high school? Wfhat were your interests and activities? Kusler: Mitchell High School, South Dakota, Marion High School, Iowa. . . Athletics. . .Theatre. . .Music. . .I was a high school drop-out. McMillan: Sault Ste. Marie High School, Michigan. . .Music. . .Cchoir, pianoi. . . . Hockey Cspectatori . . . Yearbook . . . Drama. Meulendyke: Fond du Lac High School, Wisconsin . . . football . . . Vocal Music . . . Dramatics . . . Class Activities. Bologna: Allen Park High School, Mich- igan . . . Track . . . Cross Country . . . Sci- CIICC. V BUT WHITE TENNIES?

In an attempt to cover a wide variety of backgrounds, Ercell Pulley, Roslyn Vinnik, Dorothy Rall and Chuck Seim were chosen to be featured in our probe into the history of the faculty. Ercell Pulley was very involved in ex- tra-curricular activities. There were sev- eral clubs to participate in at his high school in Marion, Ill. Ercell joined quite a few. He belonged to the dramatics club which put on three plays a year, and was an offi- cer in the High Y's, a service organization similar to Y-teens, but for guys. A club named .the Teenairens for junior and sen- ior boys was sponsored by the Rotary Club. It was a career opportunity club where students would pick a sponsor who worked in an occupation they found interesting and would spend some time with their sponsor at his job, about five times a year. Ercell Pulley spent his time with a dentist his junior year and an accountant his sen- ior year. Along with his being business manager of his yearbook, the Memory Kit, he spent once a week listening to speakers on math careers or working math problems with the math club. In college he majored in accou-:QB but found he didn't like working in an office. After that decision he received his masters in Economics and became a teacher. Roslyn Vinnik went to school in Detroit at Central High. Detroit-Central was so large that they had to have freshmen go to school in the afternoon, seniors during the morning Qworking in the afternoonb and juniors in between. They were able to get five academics in because of the two minutes of passing time and N0 commons. She was in Library Club which helped out the librarians as our library aides do now. Roslyn Vinnik was the only one in her school who won a four year scholar- ship to any school in Michigan. She won this on major test scores and grades. She planned to be a math teacher in high school. Sticking with the plans she made, Roslyn became a math teacher. Dorothy Rall was president of one of the five debate clubs in her school. Also, she participated in the Glee Club and school opera where she was a member of the chorus. Along with all of these things she was a member of the Girls Athletic Asso- ciation and editor of the Omaha Tech- nological News, her school newspaper. She planned to be a journalist but she found no .job openings, that's when she decided to become a teacher. Extremely active in high school, Chuck Seim was a member of the stage crew of his theater group. He was a class officer and wrote for the school newspaper, the Woodward Tatler. Chuck was also a member of the Alchemist Club. This club was for junior and senior guys who were interested in science and science career opportunities. Plus all of this he was editor of his yearbook. Wanting to be a teacher, he went to school at the University of Toledo, majoring in Latin. He was drafted into the Army after two years of college. In the Army he worked for Gen. MacAr- thur as a cryptologist. Returning from the Army, he finished school and became a Latin teacher at ELHS from 1948-53. In 1953 he re urned to the U of T and became a referen e librarian. In 1956 he came back to E HS and has been our librarian ever since. Even though the names of activities have changed, e main ideas still exist in today's high sch l life style. Faculty 139 s Athletics in th Lounge I il-Lf 10 140 Facui ty l. Lyn Allen, Math. 2.

These people along with many others spent lunch and many free hours, including after school, smashing a small white ball back and forth.

Teachers did other things besides writing tests, correcting tests, and lecturing to class- es. For instance, when Herb Gibbs went home everyday after school he fed his cows and horses. The farm he owns is about five miles from here in Bath and takes up most of his time. Don Ashdown, along with coach- ing the basketball team restores old cars. He had a 1946 Pontiac Silver Streak De- luxe. He buys old cars, reconditions them and then waits for a prospective buyer. He was looking for a Packard. Connie Sanchez was restoring her old ,,.. f house and does some volunteer work at var- ious places along with traveling with her daughter. Vance Hamilton has done some hiking. One of his most memorable trips was to Isle Royal, where he spent two weeks. He also enjoyed working with the Boy Scouts in his spare time. Delano Tucker liked lis- tening to music, especially popular and jazz. Being a spectator from his Lazy-Boy chair in front of the T.V. took up most of his time. Teaching doesn't represent all of the things teachers do, like everyone else they lead busy lives. , V -X' , ' - . -'I . 2? 5 its - iw' ' 5 '13 ggigsfm J. it x at fi' i f A v x t :few 'R wma., F iii X, K VS ' 1 X all Q at JR 1' . -1 wa 2 R 3 - Gsm Dljglfugi ' X X . A Faculty 143 Teachers had varied styles of teaching. It could have been Bernie Reuter's casual classroom atmosphere, Ercell Pulley's story telling, or little idiosyncrasies that were associated with specific faculty members. Bill Knapp enthralled his physics students with monkey hunting subtitles on hand- outs. Other teachers did equally well with strange things such as Winston-ace jump- ing on desks and Alan Marte1's dinging on a beaker for silence. Even drinks were characteristic of so many teachers, such as Bill Knapp and Carl White's hot choco- late. All these examples made class inter- esting and some made it more enjoyable. 144 Faculty 'fe EaCh1fQ'?l2'ifi?UElflU. - Left page: l. Kitty Mitchell, Phys. Ed. 2. Joyce Nelson, Home Econ- omics. 3.

Who answered the phone when your mother called to say you had left your sack lunch ali home? WVho else, but Susan Dan- ovitz in the main office. Sally Fuller also helped out wih the office work that needed to be done everyday and Carol Brownell worked for Gerald Kusler as a private sec- retary. In the Freshman1Sophomore Division, Chris McManaman handled the under- classmen's problems by scheduling counsel- ing appointments, and Helen Lack pro- vided student schedule and test information in the Junior-Senior Division office. Betty Corcoran worked with little white slips all day recording tardies and absences in the attendance office, which stems off the commons. Downstairs, the teachers kept three instructional aides busy for end- less hours of the day. Judy Tipton, Barbara Kasuba, and Dorothea Smits performed several duties ranging from xeroxing to typing and filing important information. There were also a few changes in the main office. The new Xerox machine in- creased the offices' facilities a great deal and decreased the tedious work of yester- year. There were hanging plants displayed in the front window to enhance it's outward appearance. And Al Rufe's secretary, Pat Reuschlein has moved from the athletic director's office to the main office. Without these eight secretaries and three instruct- ional aides, there would be a lot of unhappy teachers and many uninformed students.

Many of us took for granted the valuable jobs that the custodians did for our school. For instance, how many of us realized the behind-the-scenes details that were involved in preparing the school for every meeting, athletic event and even every school day? And whether we realized it or not, each of us had an individual reason to be grateful for a large task, like keeping our cafeteria in tip-top condition, or for something seem- ingly small, like removing the writing from our lockers. QBut look at that small task from the custodian's standpoint: multiply that one locker by 16009 in short, if you're ever near despair, in the concession stand up to your knees in coke, catsup, and candy bars, and a custodian walks in and says I'll take care of it! maybe you'l1 realize the fantastic job our custodians do!

Should disposable bottles and cans be outlawed in Michigan? Which candidate is best qualified to be- come leader of our country? These ques- tions and more were brought up in prepara- tion for the 1976 national and local elec- tions. The importance of these decisions was witnessed in East Lansing High School through student activities and election propaganda. A sample voting machine was on display in the library so that stu- dents could see voting procedures in opera- tion. Pamphlets and brochures circulated throughout the school and buttons and bumper stickers were found everywhere. A political fair was held outside the au- ditorium, featuring several candidates in person, to better acquaint students with the issues. The highlight of the presidential race was a series of three nationally televised debates between the two major candidates. Overcoming both audio difficulty and ob- jections from the minor parties for equal time, these debates swayed viewers first toward President Ford's facts and figures, then toward the patented smile and trust me approach of Jimmy Carter. Locally, propaganda concerning five proposals and names like Bob Carr, Cliff Taylor, Marvin Esch, and Lynn jondahl showed the intenseness of the issues. The proposals included a ban on non-returnable containers, rent control on area housing, and a bill to change the minimum age of ' a state legislature candidate from 21 to 18. Most major races were so close that winners could not be predicted before the actual election.

This may be because freshmen need the security of others, as evidenced by Gregg Adams and Jake Schlesinger. swarms, the freshmen could be seen hover- ing in the halls, gathered in their protec- tive groups. Truly the smallest of high school creatures, the freshmen were forced into the role of the insect. Usually they were overlooked by the older students. However, if by chance they were noticed, the frosh were always alert of the possible danger of being stepped on in some way or another. Unlike their elder peers, apathy had no place in the freshman mind. They worked like army ants trying to produce a high grade point, and often did jobs that no one else had energy enough for. E.L.H.S. could not have been without freshmen, for without the insect we would all cease to exist. .I V FRIEND IN NEED Along with the pleasures of high school came the problems, and there's nothing like having someone there when you need to talk.

Students from McDonald and Hannah middle schools and St. Thomas met for the first time in the halls of ELHS. No one knew each other and no one knew where to go. After the first few days, people started to associate with other peopleg and they also knew ap- proximately where to go. As the year passed all of the freshmen cliques were established, and everyone knew each other by that time. At the end of the year they didn't even remember who went to what school.

Most Freshmen found that academics were hard- er, they had more homework, and the teachers expected more of them than in middle school. Also, there was more pres- sure to get good grades. But there were advantagesQ High school gave kids a chance to meet lots of new friends. It was easy to become acquainted with kids from both middle schools, plus St. Thomas Aquinas. And the sports program was a big change from eighth grade. Frosh were able to compete against other schools for the first time. There were many other new activities that Freshmen could become involved in, too. Getting together and doing things as .a clam was a challenge, and the frosh learned the art of organization. Building their class float for the first time was a fun and meaningful experience. All in all, the class of '80 soon discovered the meaning of school spirit!

The commons was one place where they con- gregated in between classes and after school. Since that seemed to be where all the upperclassmen were, they decided to pick up a few tips on how to act cool. Among the many things which were close- ly observed were what styles of clothing were worn, what the conversation was about, and what kind of peer groups were involved-whether they were a bunch of academic wizs, a smoker's clique, a group of athletes, or a crowd of chronic skippers. Although there were more freshmen seen than heard, it was a flattering experience for the sophomores, juniors, and seniors to be looked up tn. But those avid admirers were soon to be idolized by the next year's freshmeng and so the pattern repeated itself year after year.

This gave students a chance to go to their lockers, socialize in the commons or cram for a test. Having the right to leave the building during lunch was great too, and many kids chose to spend their lunch hours at Mac's or Taco Bell. Some Frosh exercised their autonomy with the right to smoke, and the hill became a pop- ular place to take a break. Students also gained the right to express their opinions through portrait editorials. It wasn't easy to be the youngest kids in school, but gain- ing certain freedoms helped make it worth- while.

The Frosh had their first opportunity to go out for an organized sport. Those who made the team had the privilege of com- peting against other schools for the first time. Wanting to win provided the moti- vation for achievement. The 12 Frosh teams helped prepare athletes for the J.V. by giving experience at organized compe- tition. Freshmen who did participate in sports were respected, because going out for a team is very time consuming. It was more of a challenge for Frosh to cope with an extracurricular activity while adjusting to high school. Athletes did not have as much time to spend on their homework, and this could have had an effect on their grades. It took a lot of hard work and de- termination to become good at a particu- lar sport, but for those who did participate in sports, the rewards were well worth the sacrifices. -vw' ' V BREAK!

The hustle and bustle of registration may have con- fused many newcomers, but it was all part of the process students must go through each year. Building their first float was not easy for the Freshmen since they had no experience, and no money, but they pulled through it. The pep rallies held in the gym were one event which got the Frosh fever going. Football games were a different way to spend Friday nights, and they gave the Freshmen a chance to root for their team. Others gained valuable ex- perience by participating in the marching band, which performed at half-time. One activity which several Frosh took advan- tage of were the numerous dances that were held for just about any occasion.

After an exciting but difficult year as freshmen, the sophomores seemed to drop relatively out of sight. It was almost as though they had dug themselves a series of underground tunnels to use instead of the halls. Classes and grades became the primary concern, and although they did pop out every now and then to see their shadows or to prey upon the only creatures they could Cfroshl, the sophomore class was rather subdued. This was due, in part, to a new maturity that they had obtained in the transition from 9th to 10th grade.

But showing the true spirit that they represented all year, the sophomores cheered it on. This continued through- out the year, as the class of '79 exhuded rowdie fever. Even though the main vocal section of the stands were the seniors, led by the turkey shooters, you could always hear a roar from the soph's. As the class of '79 neared college they continued to show the spirit and enthu- siasm that was felt in their soph- omore year. 4 SAY CHEESE A group of friendly sopho- mores congregate in the commons before the first lunch hour.

Unlike the previous year, the only class that was re- quired was English II. Compared with having to take English I, Introductory to P.E., and Introductory to Social Science, it was a considerable difference. There also were several courses that allowed the sophs to participate with upperclassman. For instance, they could take Non-Western World Cultures, American Studies, and some nine-week gym classes. Also, all this seemed to give the second year people a more serious attitude toward school. So putting all this into perspective, one might've said the sophomores were free to be them- selves.

Obtaining a license opened up a whole new world of possibilities, many of which a Sophomore's wary parents wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. As the nervousness of the first drives faded, driving became a reflex, that is if you could survive the wrath of an angry Mr. Bradford or Mr. Dolan.

They planned several hour dances and helped with float items and class trip ideas. Actually the Sophomore council had a hand in several history-making decisions: They decided not to turn in a petition for a new dress codeg they never once suggested that we change the school mascot to a bas- set houndg they refused to even think of a new plan calling for the singing of the National anthem before first period every day. These achievements may seem small, but compared to any other sophomore council in the area, they are Oscar winners.

A sophomore is a balloonist in the gondola of happiness. A sophomore is the steam rising from the ket- tle of knowledge.

Possibly could've been a slogan for the sophomore float. Unfortunately they may not be receiving many volunteers next yearg a last place finish for the second year in a row will not exactly create mass en- thusiasm. But all it will take is a little pride,and the sophomores should not have any trouble obtaining a higher finish next Homecoming. With two years experience, the sophomores should at least have a good idea of what not to build. This year's float featured a flying saucer landing on the football field. It was flashy, but just not what the judges apparently wanted to see.

'i 1:21 Going Bananas P COOL Being an upperclassmen now, Craig Durkee, Bob Ronk, Bob Campbell, and Bruce Bunce have decided that they would like to view life on a higher level than the masses. Who were those monkeys? They were juniors. This was the year for them to come out and have a good time. As juniors it was possible to get into all sorts of mon- key-business because now they had become upperclassmen, still lively from their youth but without the inhibitions. Chat- tering and squealing at one another, the juniors took center-stage. Throughout the year it was difficult for the class of '78 not to look ahead to the next year when they would be tops. In fact, it appeared as though the juniors had begun to imitate their senior peers in order to get. in practice. This was not unusual for a junior class because half the fun of mon- key-see -ing is monkey-do -ing.

These plans usually consisted of taking long tests, either the ACT's or SAT's. The SAT's were given at the high school, some took it in June of their junior year, or the beginning of the Senior year. Usually many hours were spent studying from a special preparation book. The ACT 's were given only at MSU or LCC. Both the ACT and SAT were three hours long.

Crazy, strange, unusual, a new breed of weirdos? But the Juniors of '76-'77 were much the same as preceding llth graders. Some worked, had fun to- gether, and even studied. They were in- telligent, eager, ambitious, and very rowdy. You could also have found many that were thoughtful, active, concerned about others, and full of school spirit. It could be easily said that the Junior class was the most en- thusiastic about school activities and ex- pressed more pride and love for their school than any other class. i x 1 X l V CHUMS Jennie Born and Brenda Eason show off some Junior togetherness.

As you look back you may not see it, but there were changes taking place and new things to think about. College was one of the new things, and an impor- tant one! The beginning of the Junior year started a focus of events and classes leading up to graduation and eventually college. Students started thinking about whether they would be prepared for col- lege and if they would be accepted at col- lege with their present grade points. Grad- uation was not far away, and what would happen after seemed tragically close. The Junior year also meant entry into the upper class. The juniors were no longer the babies of the school, they were experienced and almost as big as the Sen- iors. The transition that took place was a happy, thoughtful time and made many students aware of their futures.

Not only did they win the coveted pep jug, but they even upset the Seniors with their Homecoming float, Deliver Us a Victory! Both Football and Basketball cheer- leaders were dominately Juniors, while many Juniors were active in the sports themselves. Many Juniors also were academically spirited. Most of them took the PSAT- NMSQT in the fall, while a good share participated in the Michigan Math Test.

Whether it was what they wore, what they ate Cwhat they drankb, or what they did on a Saturday night, soon every- one was doin' it! The big news in fashion was painter pants, in all colors for both sexes. Overalls were also a favorite. Down vests and coats were worn for skiing, and often in school. Hairstyles varied, the zap was popular for many. Girls' hair was generally shorter while the guys liked the feathered look. Juniors ate at Mac's, Bel1's, Olde World and Sir Pizza. Of course, since most Juniors are minors, the consumption of alcohol was rare. Out of school, Juniors liked to roller- skate. Rollerworld started business early in the fall and soon was the favorite spot for disco skating. They also like to paper, loaf, Cdo homeworkll or just plain mess around.

After three years of experience, the class of '77 became confident and wise. They relaxed and watched the frantic underclassmen dashing about, as lions, lazing in the sun, would observe a herd of wild gazelle. Sen- iors no longer took as much of an interest in the affairs of the other students as they did when they were younger. They just went on minding their own business, with no need to impress anyone and no reason to be afraid. There did exist, however, deep down in the pit of every senior stomach.,.a rest- lessness, an apprehensiveness about the future.

Tra- ditionally, it is a time for adulthood, maturity and drinking at Dooleys. But for many unfortunate Seniors, this wasn't possible. They had to live with the fact that they were still minors and much of the better things in life weren't available. While their friends were engaging in ac- tivities legal only for adults, what did they do? Many weren't really interested in that sort of thing. Then there were those that didn't let anything stop them, least of all being 17. Of course, there's more to being a Senior than just being 18, and every graduation, Seniors feel it. I.

Clingersmith Traditionally, spring break has been a time when hoardes of seniors got together to vacation in hot, sunny Florida, basking by the ocean and hitting exciting night- spots. The tradition held up this year as well, as over 70 seniors journeyed south. Many went by plane, however, adven- turous types like Barb Stzykiel drove a vanload of friends over the distance, each paying their own way and contributing their driving skills. Leaving town wasn't the only way to spend spring break. Many students found it most relaxing just staying at home, catching up on the latest soap-operas or merely being with their families. Then there were those who thought it best to stay home and pursue their various sports. School facilities were open to baseball and track team members alike because a long, hard season awaited them after the vacation. CAROLYNCHAVIS: Orchestra-1,29 PilOTChES!Y8-21 Y-teens-3,4. Cmp5.1.

Eick Lori Ellingboe George Elliott Thomas Emerson Paul Engelmann the nine-member class council who took control. Originally there were eight members Mary Elaine who were elected by the senior class at English registration. However, because of her enthusiasm and initiative, Sue Skirvin Tay Marie was welcomed into the group. Everwn Functions of the class council during the 1976-77 school year included plan- ning end of the year events, raising money, deciding how to spend that money, and organizing the rest of the class into committees.

ERIC ALAN FAUNCE: Hav- 2l4 Seniors Patrice Flemings Susan Fortino Jenifer Foster Mary Foth With the senior year came a feeling of eagerness and anxiety. And although some students were able to suppress this excitement, many could not. They became more candid and risky, doing nutty things around school. For in- stance, launching an orange with a scarf in the middle of the commons. Or disobeying the narc's orders by tossing a football around and claiming that they were just warming up for the evenings game. These are just a few of the many dumb things that a senior did, although they didn't seem dumb at the time.

Under the program, a student Tami must have earned twenty credits by the Finney seventh semester and completed fourteen terms. Towards the end of the year, Seniors grew restless and wanted out! Some kept grinding away at the books until june. But for others, the last week of the first semester was not only finals week, but also departure day. Few graduated then, but mostly students chose this plan to be- gin some form of higher education, or to work at a full time job. The number of Marc S. credits a student received depended on Gauin the nature of his program and whether or not he took any high school classes during that time period. Unanimous comments on leaving school early were, My gosh, gee wiz, oh what a relief it is. james Gartung Mara Gendell Paula Beth Gillespie Edie Gingrich FRITZ FREIHEIT: so ccfr club-23,45 Pm-poise Club-1: sim.

Such was the case for the family and friends of senior Jeff Hale. Jeff was killed in a car accident early in the year and the ,effect this sad event had on East Lansing High was traumatic. Mrs. Hale eased jeff's friend's sorrow by saying, jeff loved school, and he loved his friends. Well, jeff's friends loved him equally as much, and learned from his death that there is nothing so great in value as the love one person can give another. Through his death, Jeff's friends and family were all brought closer to- gether, and the memory of such a fine person will always remain. Portrait-l. DOUGLAS A. HAINES: Track-1,35 Debate-l.

There were basically five class- wide events which had to be organized: Prom, Post-Prom, the Ceniad Signing Party, Commencement, and Post-Com- mencement. Sites had to be chosen for each, meaning trips to banquet halls and ballrooms around the city. Refreshments and entertainment were taken care of by committees of volunteers. All of the work that was put into these activities resulted in a fine farewell to the Rozmina A. senior class of 1977. faffer 4 ONCE-OVER As one of several possible prom sites, the Lansing Room of Olds Plaza is inspected by John McKinney, Sue Fortino, and Shelley Grange.

On each test answer sheet there is a place to put down names of col- leges where the results of the test would be sent. In three weeks colleges send out pamphlets, letters and college guide books. Most colleges have days or weekends for visitors to come and look over the campus. For most weekends students were able to stay in dorms and get an idea of student life on the campus. Some students went on other weekends with their parents, still usually they were able to get a view of student life.

When you were a Fresh- man, you thought Seniors were next to God. When you were a Sophomore, you didn't think you would live that long. The only thing that got you through your Junior year was the fact that you'd be a Senior next year. Being a Senior is great, right? No worries, no homework, being the top kids in the school, doing anything and everything you want. In reality, your Senior year was really not that much dif- ferent from any other year in high school. Remember telling yourself that your Senior year was going to be easy? Ha-ha. Was Econ a breeze to get through? How about finishing up all of those graduation requirements? Contrary to popular opin- ion, Seniors really did have to study for tests, and do their homework. Remember how great it felt, just to be a Senior? Rossman Mark G. Ruhala james Kintner Rundquilst Terry Rycenga RICHARD T. RIGGS: Football-12.3.43 Track-l,2,3,4.

When the class of '77 was asked what they would leave to the class of '78, many students re- plied, SPIRIT! The Seniors definitely were a rowdy bunch in whatever they did! Some individual comments were also made. Peter Funk left his swimming ability to junior Bill Hayhow. Walter Linn left his ability of joking to all the introverted underclassmen . The class of '77 left a lot to the rest of the school. A lot of ideas, a lot of talent and a lot of feeling. Of course, the other classes had to learn by experience, but a lot could be learned from the Class of '77!

Trout Virginul Anne Unkefer Un The Way Cut Chuck Urquhart Tim Veldman Views on being a senior and what it meant varied among the class members. Most said they were doing a lot of partying, but on the serious side most felt decisions had to be made about upcoming plans. The following passages were written about being a senior: I like being a senior because I can take an easy schedule and not have to worry about getting great grades. - Bill Stapleton - The special thing about being a senior is: to look back on almost four years of high school and see how much you've changed and your friends have changed through all your young crazy days Call the crap you have done just to get through done to make it funb. - Mike Thimmig - high school? and Call the crap you have Norman K.

Une Last Look With just one last look at what we are now, To the past let's turn, for a minute, allow Our minds to wander to the days of oldg To the first time we fit the high school mold. In ninth grade we came-young, innocent, scared To a place where at first the smiles were rare. But it didn't take long to learn the ropes, The other kids weren't snobs, just as we'd hoped. In tenth grade we thought we knew it all! Finally there were younger kids in the halls. We couldn't walk and chew gum, as they said, But WE knew there was something in our heads. Junior year came, we were almost there. But for that short year we didn't need to care That the future was just about to come. , Why bother? we thought, why not just have fun? But now the future is right by our door, It seems now we can only ask for more Time to spend with one another, before New things for each come from op'ning that door.

Pages 204-241 of the Ceniad had been devoted to stacks of senior pictures in an attempt to assemble the entire Class of '77 into one comprehensive memory. But for various reasons, not all of the graduating class has been represented. Some thought that having to pay five dollars to be in the yearbook was unfair. To others, setting up an appointment, dressing up, and mak- ing it out to the studio was too much of a bother. To remedy their absence, Cemkwl photographer Bob Soule lurked the halls in order to snap rare photos of a few of these elusive students. Seniors 243 . k,,, , .

Some people decided to take ad- vantage of the space to display their talent. A NICE LANDSCAPE Valley Court has always had facilities available to the community. What used to be just a big field with some baseball dia- monds on it, is now a beautiful park. 46,000 to 47,000. What kind of odds were these when the university students out-numbered the residents? Who had more influence over the community, the children or the elders? As if the students didn't box the city in enough coming from the south, the state capitol, four large high schools and an Oldsmobile factory pressed from the west. But the benefits of living under these conditions were tremendous. A large num- ber of restaurants were less expensive and with a disco-like atmosphere. Movie houses with eight theatres plus the extras shown in campus dorms. Grand River was clut- tered with clothes stores and nine out of ten of those were geared to people under 25. Inspite of all the advantages problems did arise. Many merchants tended to hire college students before high school students. Then during the summer when the stu- dents were gone, business slowed down and extra help wasn't needed. Very few things weren't campus related, but if a closer look was taken it was seen that the community itself had many things to offer. During the winter months iMich- igan was famous for winter monthsb Lan- sing Ski Club was one of the busiest places around. The next closest ski hill was more than an hour's drive. The Valley Court Park was long overlooked until earlier in the year when its facilities were built-up., For outdoor recreation, tennis and basket- ball courts were added for the community's covenience. The City Council and Board of Education sponsored the Community Education! Recreation Program and Ser- vices. The recreation center had a vareity of equipment. Foosball and table tennis tournaments were hosted there along with other activities accomodating up to 125 people. In cooperation with the school the center was used for special programs like exercise, lamaze child brith and stitch- mg. East Lansing is a small town with big ideas. Look at it from any direction, it has a fantastic amount of places to go and things to do. Some say the town has nothing to offer, but if they used their eyes, a little effort and time, and they'1l find that they're wrong. Little sig ity 'N A MAC Many things in the city have changed since MSU was Michigan Agricultural College. New stores have come in and old ones were re- modeled, but MAC Street will always be a re- minder of how EL used to be. Little Big City 245 Fox Jewelersg Community News Center, Student Book Store.

It gave students something good to look forward to at the end of lunch. ,,,......--- Reflected Look back on the school year as a whole. Football was still an exciting sport and drew the biggest crowds. It was a year for the girls, too, they still carried their swim- ming state championship title. Despite the budget cut and scheduling problems stu- dents were still offered a good education. Lasting friendships built up during the year, adding more realization to what friends meant. East Lansing will always be a small community with the college augmenting the number of bodies and activities. Changes occurred every day, but the basic fundamental behind educa- tion, people and the community stayed the same. Remember the events that affected every- one, not just what happened around the high school. As Jimmy Carter settled into office, the coldest winter on record refrig- 4 GOOD-BYE Saying good-bye is a sad but per- fect ending.

The Mississippi froze over and boats were stranded or creeping along. When it was over the sales of para- phernalia in rememberance of the winter soon topped that of the bicentennial boom. East Lansing was more fortunate than Buffalo, but not without its shivers. It was the first time in decades that EL didn't have a January thaw, holding tempera- tures below zero for weeks. Remember all these happenings. Re- flect upon the year, don't miss a single thing, don't overlook the fine print, the loop holes or the guarantee. Look at what you've got. Appreciate the school people and the community. If you'd looked you'd know it was better than you thought.
