It is fitting-lthat the class of 1971 has c osen to dedi- cate its Odyssey to Mr. Norman Silvey: four years a- go the class of 1967 showed equal wisdom by doing the same thing. Something said at that time bears repeating: 'Teachers lik e Mr. Silvey willbe remembered by us a 1 ourlives. Theyadd prestige to the teaching profession: like all men who love their work, they inspire us to be greater human beings in whatever life's wor we chose. Is there an n left to say? Yes. Mr.ytSl3vEy-l9'7l- is more than evert e out- standing teacherg so it shall always be because he is the kind of person who grows w i th the years, who never stops learnin , who meets the challenge ogchange with courage and conviction. H8 is the ind of man who gives generously of his very life's lood - -hours of precious time. After school hours he may be seen counseling stu- dents, advising colleagues, even practicing scenes for a play whose proceeds will aid so m e student with college expenses. But the word that says it allis inte rit . Inaworld where so fittlye of it is left, it is perhaps all we need to sa y about a man. Sham, metense. and humbug have no partin the Silvey code of ethics. The class of 1971 approp- riatelydedicates the Odyssey to adedicated teacher, Mr. Louis Ser io. His fascination with worgs and love of lit- erature is obvious to the students in his English classes. The study of subject matter is made exciting and chal- lenging. Whenaskedto commfent on Mr. Ser 'o's t e a c hi ng , senior stuff-ents offered these responses. His teaching is fantastic andfas a person he is won- der ul. Mr. Sergio has been a great instructor f or Advan- ced Placement English. Mr. Sergio has a uniqu e method of teaching which is entertainingg there ore mak- ing learning interesting. A teacher who 's instruc - tiveimaginationis surpassed o nly by his bridge hands at lunc . What most students do not know aho ut Mr. Sergio is the number of hours that he puts into preparation and grading of which is rewarded by a set of student papers containing evidence of learnin . In addition to chailengi ng students in th e classroom, Mr. Sergio quickly accepts student challenges to com- p e ti ti on in chess, bridge, hangman, OUT and various other tests of skill. In years to come these students who have had the b en efi t of 'instruction by Sergio will respectfully re - member the teacher and the man. 1 1 1 I Z 4 i l - -as--had Faculty...Words of Wisdom . ,, ra-- 512 qfis ' K asres 1 Q 'H JW' jf. 1, 325' at 3' w . .f 'L 4, Q . 9, , i ff- 5-1 f Z km .1 Q X , , .r , ,f .1 The American Flag.

Mr. David Weaver Eac h year as spring ap- proaches, one fourth of our school population begins to realize what being a senior entails. A new life must be plan n e d , different goals 111ust be attained, old friends willbeleft behind, and new o Il es found. The problems that makeupsociety, are no longer from a textbook or a class discussion, but these problems, now concern you, asanindividual, to besolved or at leasta solution lllllSI be attempted. The world you face is bc- set by tur111oil. Yo11 cannot solve its problems in your generation, just as we, ir1 o u r pa st high school days were IIOI able to solve all Of o u rs . Realizing this fact, there are three rules I could suggest: CD Alwaystry to do your best in any achievement you attempt, C25 lfyou reach our intended goals, don't ecome complacent, set new goals, and continue reach- i11g, Q35 In life, nothing is give n for free, to achieve any accomplishment you must leave part of yourself b ehi nd .

No generation before you has faced bigger responsibilities or had note opportuii ty to change socie- ty a,1d the world If you be- comeinvolved and Cominit- ted :o the tasks before you, ynur generation can aceorn- piish much. Mrs. Marion Peterson proaches graduation, I felel a personal nostalgia as I re- member the last four years, yet anticipation as I think of the future for this class. It w as such a short time ago when your class arrived as a conglomerate mass of confusion and bewilderment. In this short period of time I have watched you grow in- to self-assured, competent young men and women. It has been a pleasure to have served you in your high school years. lwill not have the opportunity to see each of you individually, so let m e take this opportunity to e x ten d my best wishes for your future successes. All of us at Edgewood let you go w ith the best wishes and a confident hope for your fu- ture. Mr. John Teresa TheClass ofl97l has been the least narcissistic of any group to plod through Edge- w ood . It is something for whichthere should be a col- lecti ve pat on the back. The demands of societyhave been exemplary, has at least not been the worst cultural lag since Gailileo was put under house arrest. Living as you have been a w a y from totally narrow, individual concerns, you pre- sent seniors sound unaffected, and you look real. The spe- cificsarehandyenough. Not terribly long a go , at every highschool, most of the irls c arri ed hairspray in t eir purses, and ten minutes be- fore the end of every class w as given over to a partial overhaul of br o w s, lashes, li ps and birdsnest hairdoss The present female popula- tion has untortured hair that moves, and the majority of faces are authentic, not masks. This acceptance of the physical self without the ordeal of artifice coincides w ith a wider perception of what's going on in the world, not just ont ie campus. Boys too are less narcissistic. I can not imagine a 1971 sen- ior male buylnga wood plaid shirt at Sears and bootlegging a Pendleton label into it, as was the rage one unmention- able year. The present sen- wantshislabelsstraight, and more Often than not, will see things for what they are, ra- ther than believing everytling he or she is told. . . Bot the problems and the opportuni - tiesof living have been Olll there for a long time, but l b eli e ve the Class of 1971 perceives the111n 111ore realis- tically than any previous EHS class. May that perception, translated into effort, re- ward us all. Mrs. Ruth'Geis my own de- gree of isolation. IfI w as ignorant, I ensured my own ignorance. If I did not see, it was because I did not want to see. Albert Speer 's words are meant to condemn his own actions during World War ll, but they also reach out,even to West Covina,to shake and shame. In the last four years, w e have been shown, have experienced, and, possibily, have taken an active part in man's inhumanity to man. We have viewed and dis- Q 4 f 'Q J ,M ' I j A Learn to compromise: the inability to compromise is war! Men of principle, all too often, are w illin to allow others to die for their beliefs, and w hi le there is something rather noble about men doggedly sticking to principle, ' there is much also that is pathetic. Those to w hom life means little magnify the importance of princip e. You must be ready to die for principle, but you must be ready to live for compromise, and although it is true that it takes courage to die, it often takes more courage to live. Isthere any principle t ha t is worth one human life? Learn to com- promise. Mr. Louis Sergio In this great educational process there are two relevant wordsof wisdom that I quote often. fly The mind will absorb as much as the seat will en- dure. f2j Teaching would be wonderfulif it wasn'tfor the students. Mr. James Black Live! Live and enjoy life. That's my advice to graduating s e ni o rs. Keep physically fit. Develop an broad range of interests. Do not allow yourself to be bored---that's only admit- ting your own narrowness. Try to find something of in- terest in everthing and e- veryone you encounter. Read! Continue your educa- tion so that it extends thro- ugh your lifetime. Strive to realize your fullest potential- ities. Learn to know yourself and strive to become your own best friend. If you don't love yourself, you cannot expect others to do so. Learn to love, so that you may re- ceive love in return. Be all you can. Relate to your world through work and love. Work for peace. May you all make your own good fortune. Mr. Phil Norton As you prepare to com- mence the next stage in your life, mayl pointout that the next stepis always infinitely moreimportant than the last step. My hope is that you find living challenging, ex - citing, and rewarding. Mrs. Eleonore Harris cussed poverty, prejudice , and warg and we have found ourselves innocent. We have denied the existence of in- justice: it is not part of our Truth. We have flamed with righteous angerg then, once purged, w e have quickly cooled. We have rationalized our inhumanity, b lam in g another time, another place, another man. But the excuses are a fraud, a means of You have indeed onlyjust be unto live. How lovely if Igcould predict only bri ht roads and rosey promises get eac h of you. Rather, you will all fa ce challenges as weuasdreams. 1 nave con- fidence that you will find the wisdom and courage to meet your challenges and r e a c h out for your reams. Mrs. Susan Johnson' X I able ex pe ri ence watching you, the class of 1971, de- velopinto young adults over the last four years. This is my first year as a teacher and coach that I have been able truly been an enjoy- to see that unbelievable de- velopment from incoming freshmen to graduating sen- iors. It has een a pleasure working withso many of you in the classroom, on the PE field , and on the athletic field. I hope you have ben- efitted asrnuc as I have, -- and maty you all hold the ad- vice o the greatest teacher of them all, the late Vince Lombardi: Each man, whatever the degree of talent bestowed upon him has a moralresponsibility not only to himself but to society, to develop that ggto its ut- most degree. Mr. Gary Kretz a v oid in g envolvment, of tolerating evil. If we do not become concerned and active,if we do not question , if we refuse to see, if we simply tolerate,then we be- c o m e participants in the perpetuation of the hatred, the assassinations, the riots, an d the atrocities w e have witnessed in the last four years. Mr. PhilGary paper people to go West--that was where the opportunitieswere. I would advise young people to da y to go into business. Why prepare to work for somebody else when you can prepare to work for yoursel- ves? Working for yourself can be a thrilling and rewarding experience. advised young Mr. George Velasco we approach tion there looms the question w h a t now ? The security of home and school is not as solid as it once was. Many g r a d u a t es are hearing the statement, you are an adult now, you work it out. Within this setting the grad- uate faces what seems to be a more confused world than ever. Life has always had its un- certainties but likewise its h o p e s , faiths, and eternal truths. My advice to the class of 1971 is to look to- w ards the positive, search out the good and useful while a voiding the negative and unproductive. This point of view can insure success. Work at it! Con ratulation to e a c h of the Class of 1971 upon your graduation. Mr. Roscoe Vaniman THE TIMES THEY ARE A Come gather around people wherever you roam, And admit that the waters around you have grown, Accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone, If your time to you is worth savin', Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changin'. Come writers- and critics who prophesize with your pen, And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again, And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin And there's no tellin' who that its namin' For the loser now will be later to win, For the times they are a-changin'. Come Senators, Congressmen please heed the call. Don't stand in the doorway, don't lock up the hall, For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled, The battle axe that raging, Will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls, For the times they are a-changin'. Come mothers and fathers throughout the land, And don't criticize what you can't understand, Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command, Your old road is rapidly aging Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand For the times they are a-changin'. The line it is drawn, the curse it is cast, The slow one now will later be fast, As the present now will later be past, The order is rapidly fading, And the first one now will later be last, For the times they are a-changin'.

Pam enjoys music and she plays piano and organ when she isn't yelling at the Journalism Staff. Being continually on a diet of some kind or a no th er Pam 's pet peeve is people who can eat anything and not gain w eight .

Pam has won the Daughters of the American Revolution A w ard, been chosen as an Honor Guard at graduation and is on this year 's Prom Court. Pam 's enthusiasm is contagious and without h er Edgewood would be a rnuch duller place. To be named Best All Around, you have to have participated in a well- round ed list of activities, have many outstanding qualities, and be a credit to your school. Unfortunately, Edgewood deesn't have any male s tud en ts that meet these specifications, there- fore, we did the next best thing. We let one of our l shy a n d unknown students ho d this title. He is Richard Burgess, H16 guy in the pic tru r e . Richard has participated in acouple of things like being senior class presid ent, being on the varsity basketball team for three years, and being Key Club president. Just a few trivial thingslike that, but nothing that would ge t him Best All Around. Since Rich, or Dick, or Birdman, w hic h he is also called, is not very well- known, her e is a little in- formation about him. He plans on going to Mt. Sac next year and then on to Cal Poly to studvcitv management a nd political science. He likes going to the beach, surfing, hunting, and being with friends. He also really digs on Abba Zabbas. This is a little psychological hang-up caused b y knowing that his gr e a t grandfather invented that candy bar. He's part Indian, he has a grade point average of 3. 8, and he likes to lizve his life to please himself rather than others. He has as his pet peeves, bad weather, bordom, the commom cold, and being interviewed for the Odyssey. .0 l wi XX 6 M L21-2N: ga X L f X X I ,il I, ' .

EDGEWOOD HIGH SCHC The Changing Student and A By Martha Lindner Just b efore January 15, many students at Edgewood w ere talking about the Sen- ior Ditch Day' that was to be heldthat day. No one knows who started it, btt the rumor was spread from m o u t h to mouth and by passing papers out announc- ing the event. When th e d a y arrived, more than 200 Seniors were absent. As one walked down the halls and looked into the variousclass rooms, he saw many that had only 6 or 7 students. Was ditchingschool on this dayall rightor was it a ter' rible sin. The employees in the at' tendance office feel unau- thorized ditching isn't fair. M a n y students were work- ing in the attendance office during brunch a nd getting permission to st a V out o o t h e r classes so they could help straighten out the hor' rible mess of having to file and alphapetize so m any students. O ne teacher stressed the fact that it forced many mo- thers into lying and saying their kids werei l. She tells of other d a ys when Senior Ditch Day was legal, All Seniors came to school and at brunch th e y all walked out oftheir classes, grinning at the other classes who had to stay in school. ldon't know, shoudl Sen- iorDitch Day be legalized? One student says e does' n't care, as long as he gets out of school. Another says it shou1cln't be legalized bef- cause that would take all the fun out of it. The school administration doesn'tlelga1izeit, because of more t an a certain per- centage of students are ab- sent, then the school won't get paid by the state for that ay. Some students say that if teachers can d it ch school, referringmto the teachers who w ere a sent the day before then why can't students? Of course, the teachers pay the consequences of no pa un- less they call in ill, andyso it is with the students.' Mother wanted her son to go to the mountains, as she remem- bered the days he had ditched, but he preferred to stay at home, putting up screens. Another student ditched only half a day,so the people in attendance were debating whether to give her half a cut. A11 the students that ditched seemed to have en- joyed themselves thoroughly, and after all, isn't it fun to be naughty once in a while? By Pam Marx EHS students ha ve seen revolutionary changes in dress standards in the last four y e a r s - - -both girl and guy grooming regulations. Only two years ago girls w e re fighting a three -inch limit on skirt lengths. Now not only is there no limit on the shortness of a skir t, as lon g, of course, as it is in good taste,but the maxi has comeinto vogue. Girls, who only last year swore never to pn--.1-que------w OF' 1971 Administration patronize the midi are seen prancing d o w n the hall in fashionable midis and boots. Twodyears algo girls a- waite bermu a da s as days to be comfortable in pants and now. . . well there is probably not a girl in the sc ool who doesn'r w ear slacks occasionally, let alone those who fall into the daily blue jean sydrome. The ruling two years ago on hair length for guys read as such, boys may not af- fect hair styles that are typical for girls. A guy's hair was not permitted to curl on the nape of the neck when the individual is erect. ' Today, hair is to be cle a n , neat and properly g ro o m e d --no restrictions on length. T o add to the tumultous I joy brought by the announce - ments guys ar e now free to decide for themselves how lo ng their sideburns- are to be, w hether thetyprefer a wrap-a r o u nd or ull beard and whether or not a mous- tache im pro ves their ap- pearance. It seem s the student is finally able to decide totally to personal taste what his or her appearance sho uld be ex pec t for minor demands placed on him or her by pa r e nt s and Kgirlfriends or boyfriends. A ministration pressure is off and peer pressure is on-full force. by Ralph Maeda Yes, there have been m a n y obvious changes that have taken place here at EHS in our four years. The phy- sical changes such as elim- ination ofthe dress code, a super -successfulsenior ditch day, a cleaner campus and more liberalized newspaper can be observed by simply glancing around. The less obvious change, but much more vitalone is the change in th e stud ents, themselves., The EHS student has evolved from a pom -pom yelling fa natic to a sensitive, re' alistic individual who is truly concerned about not only his school but his fellow man, his country's condition a nd the entire condition of the world. Instead of spending all his time at d a nce s the student now directs much of his energy toward projects much initiating the Free Clinic, walkingforthe Walk for Hunger campaign, raising funds to build schools in de- prived nations and donating time to the American Cancer Society. Thi s new type of aware studentis often criticized for not having schoolspirit but in place ofthis spirit is the much m ore valuable spirit and interest in the world outside of rea lm of school and therealization that he is not an instrument or puppet to be manueved by the school system butanindividual who has the right and the obli- ation to speak o ut against Els government and society ifhe feelsthey are in need of change. Jfool fqalenlea' wed! yefoaonalily Being well known around campus for her involvement in Trojanaires, Concert Choir, and Drama, Claudia O'Farrel seems best suited for this title. Tweetybird, as she is known by friends and others, digs on art, rapping withinteresting people, and acting weird. A typical fe- male. She has won such awards as Best Actress, Bank ofAmerica Award for Drama, and the Bobbsy Twin Award. Her future p l a n s consist of Rio Hondo for a major in Drama, and then on to Brigham Youngllniversity for Drama or a teaching degree. Rick Barker has centered hislife in and out of EHS on the performing arts. His school a cti viti es include Trojanaires, Drama and Concert Choir and he enjoys entertaining an a u d i e n ce. Rick can most often be seen o,-n a bench o n the Senior Quad on which he is reciting MaCBeth's soliloguy. Rick'S pet p e e v e is a restrictive administration which hind ers rath er than advances the learning process. Rick plans on continuing his car' reer in entertainment while possibly trying out for the Y o u n g America ns. Paulette Lorden is one of the most informed EHS stu- dent on ca m pus activities si n c e she is the mysterious typist for the school bullen- tin. The b e a ch , parties, horseback riding, and of c ou rse, talking are among Pau1ette's favorite activities. Her future plans are to attend the University of Walnut and become a le g al secretary. While smog and rain are Paulette 's pet peeves she makes up for it by indulging in her favorite Pastimes ---- boys and eating. Dennis Ho lli ngsw orth while being a m embe r of Trojanaires also finds time to be a lunch hour activist. Dennis i s a fantastic drum'- m e r which accounts for his interest in records. He also c o ll ects bottles. His pet p e e v e s a r e rascists, John Wa ne and liars. Since Den - nishas been drumming since he was nine it is not unusual that he wishes to continue his musical career while attend - ing college in Utah.

And last, but not east, to Tom Glassen, Qffiffieal Wittiest is not the most fitting title for Doug Maire but it s the best one available. The title he deserves is one that goes with the kind of person who'd spend the night in Camp Pendleton's brigg, be called skinny, or be rein- carnated as a chicken. These are all characteristics of DouglasRichard Maire. I-le's a member ofthe Trojanaires. and the Young Faith singing group. His pet peeves are: VW's and guys who try to do John W a yn e imitations but can't. Doug plans to go to Mt. Sac next year. D ea nna Nieman centers ' her school life around Tro- janaires and Concert Choir w hi le entertaining herself outside school by sewing and creative writing. Deanna's wit can be attributed some- what to her irresistable urge to li ste n to dirty jokes. D ea nn a plans on going to college and pursuring a career in the entertainment field. D ea n na considers herself a terrible driver a nd her idea of a joke is to try and give her mother heart failure with her driving. u'ena'h'e4l Ifonedaya strange person comes u p and starts talking to you on campus it will probably be Nancy Geissinger or Dale Adam s. who were voted ITIOSI friendliest.

FOOTBALL 1970: 3-6 In 1984, itwill be easy to look back and decide what Edgewood's 1970 fo o t b al 1 team was like. The 3-6 rec- ord will be scrutinized, and the decision made: crummy. The 1971 graduates will look back, and after those many years, will not rem- ember the game situations , the bad breaks, or even the scores of the games. They willonly vague y remember that the team lost more than they won. Even the p1ayer's memories will be dimmed after the high school years have b e co me ancient his- tory. But as our Senior Edi- tionisin effect a time cap- sule, let it here be recorded that 1970's footballream was much better than it's record. The 1970 edition of Tro- jan football was one of '- ceptionalpassing, good de- fense, and fairrunning. Jun- iors Dick Vale n cia, Gary Hahn, and Rich Havard led the offense as the passers. Their many fine targets in- cluded seniorreceivers Chris Moersch, Jim Strausbaugh, Bruce Guthrie, Mark Dover - spike, Bob MacBurney and underclassmen Geb Church, Tim Hillenburg, and Gary Roinecke. Semor Linemen were Dale Magner, Tim Dostal, CarlCiar aliq Scott Messenger, Mark Gebbracht. Dave Bertone, Ralph Maeda, and Bob Go1den Toe'H'etten stein, who doubled as the teams kicking specialist. Other seniorlettermen w ere Mike Esquivel, Craig 'Jello' Jeleniow ski, Vince Iacobo, a nd W a y ne Rosenkranta. The tri -captains were Dale Magner, CarlCiarfa1io, and Chris Moersch. When the Trojans beglan the season, it seemed t at perhaps th efates would smile on them this year. They defeated the Mark Keppe1Aztecs by one point, 14-13. Moersch and Hillen- burg pulled Valencia passes ,downfor TD's but the win - ning margin rxoved to be Golden Toe Hertenstein's PA T 's . Se nior fullback Mike Esquivel was named bg the coaches as the first layer of the Game'-. But from this point, until the South Hills game, EHS for- tunes seeme to go bad, and then worse. Edgewood next met the R 0 s e m e a d Panthers, ard were defeated 24-7. The Panthers rushed to a 10-0 advantage before 3 minutes had elapsed in the game. Troy blew several oppor- tunities to score, and seei as they were guilty of several? defensive lapses, cou1dn't get back in the game. Juniorslotback Tim Hillen- burgl was honored as Player of t e Ga,rne. The next two contests were with the Sierra League's elite , West Covina and Glendora. The West Covina Spartans spored on the first play of the game, and do- minated t e whole way. They won 26-0, Nothing seem ed to go right for the home team heros. It wasn't so much that they were over- a tc hed as that the other . 1 -1. Junior Richard Havard Q61 sprinfs for goal, with Geb Church L29 clearing the way. , li nr --. The Glendora ame was close the first half, tglendora man- agindg a 7-O lead. But the secon half seemed to be a rerun of the WC game. The Tartans muscled 32 points to win 39 -0. Linebacker Rich Havard was the Player of the Game against the Spartans, w hile tackle Dale Magnet reaped the same recognition for the Glendora game. The Covina contest prov- ed to be the fir-st of three heart-breaking defeats. EHS dominated the gam e , and after falling just shortof scorindg on many of their dri- ves le only 12 -6. With two minutes le t, it appeared the lea d would prove large e- nough anyway as the'Trojans controlled the ball at mid- field. But on a third down play, Covina nabbed an in- terception and scored. The PAT put them ahead by one point, 13-12, and that was the final score, EHS had out- played Covina in every way, yet the game was chalked up as a loss. Geb Church play- ed linebacker, tailback, and riorback the game. and a..-arced Pf51'er'f1::nors. Liwif ith 2 Q-ff record, Coach ivan Weil: crew next met Los Altos. Here again the y outplaged their oppo- nents everyw ere, but on the scoreboard. The score was tied at 7-7 when with 8 sec- onds left, Los Altos succeed- ed ona last ditch pass, good for 50 yards, and won 14-7. Edgewood 's seasonal lo now stood at 1-5, when gy' all rights it should have been 3 -3. Player of the Game want to Bob Hertenstein. The Trojans next man- aged to defeat their oppo- nents on the scoreboard as w ell as on the field. The South Hills team fell victim 14-8, while Troyneatly trimmed Azusa 28-0. 'Player of the Game' honors went to fullback Bob Sweatt and quarterback Gary Hahn. Edgewood played its fin- est game in its last one a- gainst La Puente. The rojans fought to take a 14-7 halftime lead into the locker room. The Warriors tied the game in the third ona 60 yd. punt return, and went ahead 21-14 in the fourth. Very near the end ofthe game, the Trojans scored again. Dick Valencia threw the season's most controversial pass on an attempt to score a 2 pt. Con- version. End Gary Roenicke caught the ball right on the out -of-bounds line, and though EHS football placyers and coachs will testify ary landed in the end zone, the Coach wells ref. ruled he didnit. The attempt had failed, and EHS lost2l-20. Perhaps this was the most bitter defeat of the year. A team that could easily have gone 6-3 ended up 3-6. Chris Moersch re- cieved the final Player of the Game award. Chris recieved a greater honor when he was named the first team All Serra League and Second team laurels went to Geb Church, Da 1 e Magner, and Bob Sweatt. Coach Paul Breit This year's Varsity Wrest- lin team had its work cut out it them w hen the 'season started, but wh en it came right down to league the Trojans couldn't be topped as they won the Sit-rra Lea- gue Championship. A team filled w ith jun- iors and led by co-captains Carl Ciarfalio and Jim Shan- non, who along with Tim Dostal and Scott Messenger were tht' only seniors on the team, overcame Covina in the last m Ll tch of the year by a score of All-li.

His pitching talents w ere at it best against a strong st ro ng West Covina team, where he allowed onl 3 hits and no runs. Outfieldler Guy Kristofic had one of his better gam es against Los Altos where he boom ed a home run over left -centerggeld. pig yyrr ig- M ark Doverspike, was the team 's most consistent play- er on offense and defense. Coach Mike Lassalette - 'T' S e n io r p i t c h e r Greg Reinecker keeps keen eye on base stealing opportunities. H0wever, Guy's best hitting game came against Covina as he went 3 for 4 from the plate and led Troy to a ll-4 victory. First baseman Jon Watson the te am 's leadin home run hitter, had one of his best games as he sparked a victory over Glendora. with a game tieing home run. Jon also sewed up a Los Altos game with a three run home run. Glen Johnson, an out- field er, was not noted for his power hitting, but throu ghou t the season he proved to be a valueable part of the team as he scattered m a n y singles and doubles. Th e s e hits allowed Edge- wood many scoring opportu- nities. Co-captain, catcher Mark's improvement during the year was noted by the coach and spectator alike. Relief pitchers, Keith Lan- dau and Dave Bertone, didn't have many opportunities to pitch during the year, but when they did, they pitched well and were hardly scored upon. Their enthusiasm on the bench heightened team spiritand aided many a vic- tory. Underclassmen on the team w er e Juniors Bill Bird at third base, Rich Havard at second base, Terry Snow outfield, Dick Valencia out- field, Bruce Kent pitcher, and Joe Gonzales outfield.
