Richard McFadden expresses himself after the homecoming parade. The senior class car was the talk of the pa- rade. Shakespeare’s B.D. celebrated On April 23, 1564, William Shakespeare was born in Strat- ford— upon Avon. Every year Mr. Ward’s Shakespeare class celebrates the birth of the great literary genius with a party where they serve delicious English dishes. This year the dishes included English trifle, minced-meat pie, hot-cross buns, scones, and other common English foods prepared by the students. It was a fantastic lunch and a lunch no one who attended will ever forget. Mr. Ward, after explaining the recipe, begins to serve the English food. by Laura McCullough A lot of rock and roll bands evolved from local high schools, but with the new wave of rock and roll comes a new kind of band, “The Hands.” The Hands performed at such noteworthy gatherings as the Tigerette Spring Show and the Student Faculty Games. Albertson. Marshall Barney, James Wyatt, James Turn- er and Vernon Dravenstott are The Hands. Many sophomores express their excitement after winning the school spirit stick during spirit week activi- ties. Barry Road is not just a normal road. It is indeed a road of nightmares. It threatens the lives of thousands each day. One of the many treacherous intersections of Barry Road is Antioch Road or 1 highway. Trying to get on to Barry Road from Antioch Road is almost impossible. With a hill on the left which people come flying over about every minute, they couldn’t possibly stop for a vehicle pulling out. This is a very dangerous road that should be fixed as soon as pos- sible to prevent any more terrible accidents. Mr. Curtis instructs his physical education class at East High School. Coach Southwick keeps a close eye on the situation during a varsity football game. There is always a time for being totally serious and a time for just being yourself. Our ESHS Girls Track Team is showing us the perfect example of the real you. A few of them think they’re number one while a few other track students think peace is still the fad. There are always a few gabby girls like Lyndi Casto and Danna Robb. Then there is Carrie Berkey behind Tracey Gantt. Notice her new boufant look.

This year the Tigers had a double treat by hosting and winning the district wrestling tournament. They out scored each team by 40 points and pushed 11 wrestlers into the sectionals and then pushed 7 into state. And here are the fabulous 11.

Jim Shockley takes time out from a rugged game of foot- ball to greet a fan. This game has all the makings of another classic— Ken Southwick, Oct. 27, 1981. After two overtimes, Liberty prevailed for the fifth straight year to keep the Dueling Pistols. It was a 10-9 win after a dead even game. The game was one that will never be forgotten. The team is to be congratulated on an excellently played game. Mr. Bair, the school publications teacher, explains the many tasks involved in the making of a yearbook. With him are some of the more dedicated staff members. The Excelsior Springs High School baseball team and the recreational league will have a new sports field to play on starting this sum- mer. Marty Albertson and Shelly Head were united in holy mat- rimony in one of the school’s yearly mock weddings. Student Council took the time and effort to organize the annual Friday night disco. They were enjoyed by everyone in the school. They helped put the ending on a Friday night football game or basketball game. The members of Student Council listen to the president, John Shepherd. The Student Council meets monthly to discuss upcoming events they will sponsor. All-School Strength Team shatters nine by Laura McCullough records Coach Dave Schmidt, strength and condi- tioning coach, was more than pleased with the results of this year’s Tiger All- strength competition in which Tiger girls and boys combined to shatter nine school conditioning records. The results showed that Coach Schmidt’s spring conditioning Repairs come to end on the parking lot. When one hears the word parking lot, one thinks of West High School, but not anymore. At the beginning J of the 1981-82 school year things la looked doubtful. The parking lot Hu hadn’t changed from last year when the ten dollar parking fee was H charged to fix the lot. Again the ten dollar parking fee was charged and E still nothing. But to the students surprise word I drifted around that the parking lot was to be fixed. The administration | had approved the funding for the I repair. Within a few months the parking lot was repaved with three inches of asphalt being put down in the back part of the lot. Candy Williams and Donna Goode take time from the football game to pose for the photogra- pher. program paid off. The athletes were rated in 11 categories which tested overall athletic ability. Their rankings in each event were added to get their score. Greg Schuetz was the overall win- ner among the boys scoring 48 points. Joe Sanders was second with 59. Mark Hartman (71), Chris Hurt (89), and Gary Mawby (85) rounded out the top five. The next top finish- er from each class was also picked for the elite team. These were ju- nior Steve Rickman, sophomore Jer- ry Wilson, and freshman Steve Johnson. Robin Wyatt and Leigh Gantt tied for first among the girls with 47 points. Tami Hawkins was third with 52. Dana Barnes (57), and Junlie Wendt (59) were fourth and fifth. Also chosen were Janet Wrisinger, the next top senior, junior Kristi Manley, and freshman Kim Bryant. Records were broken by Hartman in the hip sled at 730 pounds and in the 40 yard dash at 4.6 seconds. Hurt in the hip sled per- centage at 468 percent, and Sanders who broke the power ra- tio mark at 6.15. Wyatt and Barnes broke the school record by both lifting 500 pounds in the hip sled. Hawkins set a new pow- er ratio record at 494. Tracey Gantt broke the 40 yard dash record at 5.2 seconds, Bryant broke the sit up mark at 69, and Leigh Gantt set a new school record in hip sled percentage at 406 percent. These Tiger athletes deserve a tremendous amount of praise, as does Coach Schmidt, for their hard work and dedication. 1. Sherelle Conyers studies intently on her Health Occupation studies. 2.

It is a very good way for students to get a bet- ter and faster education for a specific job. They learn a lot and really get to work on what they’re training for. James Moran, who has gone to vocational for two years in carpentry, was head foreman when they built the house and is also class president. James stated, “I’ve learned a whole lot; it was a very good experience and will be a definite help in the future.” The following groups are at the vocational school: FBLA, which is secretarial work and computers and is open to all Office Occupa- tions and Machine Specialties students; DECA, a sales field class for students practic- ing to become some type of salesperson; VICA. an international organization for devel- oping leadership and skills in vocational stud- ies. Many of the Excelsior Springs school stu- dents participated in the Western Missouri District Leadership Conference and Skill Olympics, which was held at Platte County Vocational School. Also many students went to district and state. In the state contests, a few of the students placed. In VICA open and closing ritual, sec- ond place went to Jan Sims. Terry Barron. Jeff Allen and Jim Haddock. In Air Conditioning and Refrigerating skills divisions. Dan Sharp received second place. Finally, in Drafting specific related divisions. Excelsior Springs students took first and sec- ond places. They went to John Whitesel and Dale White. vocational school by Sherry Edwards—15 r% i iTv | National a Honor 8 Society g 8 1.

NHS International Club by Lora Barnett —17 Select Choir entertains school and com- munity The Select Choir, under the direction of Marillyn Lansford and Student Di- rector Sandi Pope, worked extremely hard this year. They put together a tremendous amount of shows, concerts, and benefits for numerous organizations. The choir presented their annual fall show on October 15. This year’s title was “From Bach to Rock” and contained songs varying from the serious to the “Rockin’ 50’s.” The Se- lect Choir also performed for Lion’s Club, Senior Citizens Luncheon, the an- nual Christmas concert, the Liberty Jail Open House, and others. The newly formed Swing Choir was also kept extremely busy. They enthusiastically performed over 40 shows in various places all over the school and community including many churches and clubs. This year’s Select Choir contained an abundance of talented people. This fact was shown in the many honors re- ceived by individuals. On September 16th, eight were chosen for All-District Choir. These included juniors Marty Albertson and Kennan Rooney, and seniors Stefanie Cline, Larry Lattin, Laura McCullough, Sandy Mills, Sandi Pope, and Laveta Wheeler. One month later Sandi Pope was chosen for the honor of being in the All-State Choir for the second year. She received a trip to Tan-Tara for a weekend to re- hearse with the All-State Choir and perform in a concert given by them. In the Spring many choir students were practicing for District Music Contest. Those who received a I rating earned a trip to the State contest. They were Marty Albertson, Dana Criswell, Steve Harris, Sandy Mills, Sandi Pope, and Laveta Wheeler. Sandy Mills and Sandi Pope went on to receive Excellent 1 ratings at State while the other four received Superior II ratings. The Select Choir ended the year with fantastic performances of the musical “The Boyfriend.” This year’s shows were enjoyable and fulfilling to all who performed and to all who were lucky enough to see one or more of the performances. The Select Choir provided everyone with the utmost quality and overall success. 18 —select choir by Laura McCullough 1 The newly formed Swing Char perform «I Watkm MiU's Christmas Open House Members are Larry Lattm.

The suspenseful play kept audi- ences on the edge of their seats and screaming with terror. Freshman Donna Robb exclaimed, “It was really scary! Everyone was scream- ing. The new type of play created new challenges. Foremost, according to Mr. Gideon, was the “challenge to figure out what would scare the audi- ence and what wouldn’t.” But the cast met the challenge and “worked really well together,” stated Lora Barnett. Starting with little more than a new idea, the cast and crew, with the help of Mr. Gideon and Assistant Director Jeni Scarth, began to build the es- sentials of a good play. The lines were learned little by little. The props were collected, and the set was constructed. Soon things began falling into place and the cast and crew be- gan to work on perfection, continued on next page continued from preceding page . . . “The hardest part of performing a play of this kind was maintaining the suspense even after many rehearsals of the outcome,” stated Laura McCullough. “When the technical crew was add- ed (lights, sound, etc.) it became easi- er for us because there was more of a feeling of reality and the feeling that you were really trapped in the theatre with a killer,” said Stacy Wehr. For the members of the crew, how- ever, it became increasingly difficult. Stage Manager Kennan Rooney said, “It was hard to get the cues to match the movements and dialogue of the actors.” As final rehearsals came, the cast and crew added nervousness to their list of challenges for a successful pro- duction. As the final curtain closed, howev- er, the cast and crew were left with a feeling of great accomplishment be- cause they had succeeded in develop- ing believable characters and settings.

With only one returning letterman, Senior James Turner, it was almost like start- ing over again with the first of coaching in 1971. The inex- perience showed as the boys suffered through the first five meets of the season with a dismal seven wins against 54 losses. Over the last four meets, however, the Tigers im- proved greatly to post a 21-32 won-lost record. With marks like this, one can easily see improvement and an unwillingness to quit or to give up. The team bid farewell to seniors Jeff Allen, Ron Huitt, Lance Caselman, and Lendal Jenkins, but the up-and-coming freshmen and sophomores will make the fu- ture brighter still. Led by Sophomores Tony Butler and Cliff Bruns and Freshman Tim Barney, the coming sea- sons hold great promise. 26—boys cross country by Rick McAfee 4 1.

They worked hard all summer getting ready and it paid off in the end. The record may not show it, but there were a lot of close matches. Freshman, Sandy McGinnis and Junior Kim Garrett, both out for the first time, finished third at JV conference. Senior co-cap- tains Sheri McGinnis and Paula Casto finished fourth at Varsity conference. The team held its banquet on November 17 at West High School.

The Pep Club, under the leadership of Mrs. Suzette Southwick, took on a new enthusiasm. The selling of black and gold balloons at the Liberty game helped boost spirit. The varsity Cheerleaders attended NCA camp at Springfield. With the help of their sponsor, Mrs. Peggy Taylor, they won 23 blue ribbons. The cheerleaders did many things to support their team during the season such as making locker decorations and signs for the game. Mrs. Charlene Wisniewski was very proud of the pom pon squad. They won 85 blue ribbons, 5 red and 5 white at the NCA clinic in Springfield, and they took top honors by winning the Sweepstakes Award from among 900 girls. With many long hours of preparation and practice, the Tiger fan clubs helped fire up and entertain the crowd during the football season. 1 1.

To see the true achievements of the team, however, one must look past the 3-6 record and to the statistics. The team statistics show that the Tigers led in almost every category. The only category in which the Tigers didn’t lead was total points scored. As Senior Captain Mickey Sanders said, “You can tell by the stats that we were a better team, but things just didn’t always work out to our advantage.” Head Coach Ken Southwick expressed his satisfaction in saying, “We had a good season. We’re playing a higher caliber of football and we’re getting better at skilled positions.” Coach Southwick credits part of the improvement of the team to Coach Dave Schmidt and his weightlifting program. Coach Schmidt noted, “We’re slowly im- proving in overall team speed and strength. This showed in the fact that we were not physically over- powered by any team.” Senior Mickey Sanders led the elite, ten member All-Strength team this year as the top athlete in the conditioning tests. This is the first year that the All-Strength team has been dominat- ed by seniors. There were several awards given at the banquet this year. Sophomore Chris Hurt was chosen Rookie of the Year and received the Tiger 110% award. Junior Mark Hartman received an award for Outstanding Offensive Player, carry- ing the ball 179 times for 849 yards. And Senior Cory Buckman was chosen Outstanding Defensive Player, leading the team in tackles with 114. Cory also received an award for Most Improved Weightlifter. The Most Valuable Player award went to Senior W.T. Jamison, who also received awards for Tiger 110% and Outstanding Weightlifter. Mickey Sanders also received the Outstanding Weight- lifter award and Junior Denny Marker was also chosen for the Ti- ger 110% award.

'All-Conference Awards 6 football — by Laura McCullough — 41 42—homecoming, by Cheryl Stanley Royalty lights night It was a chilly, dreary October night as the Tiger fans swarmed into Roosevelt Field. Half-time drew near and students grew eager to find out who would be the 1981- 82 Homecoming Queen and who would be her court. As the candidates lined up, a voice came over the loudspeaker to announce each of the girls. The freshman candidates were Dana Mapes and LeAnne Wormsley, sophomore candidates Melissa Buckman and Julie McMillan, junior candidates Beth Babb and Kristi Manley. The senior queen candidates were Christine Maddux, Christy (Wietharn) Sanders and Laura McCullough. The girls nervously took their places on the field. Finally the moment had come. The speaker announced the freshman princess. Miss LeAnne Wormsley; the sophomore princess, Miss Melissa Buckman; junior prin- cess, Miss Beth Babb. Then came the senior candidates. Miss Christine Maddux was announced senior princess. A hush floated through the audience. Then over the loud- speaker the speaker announced the 1981-82 Homecom- ing Queen, Miss Laura McCullough. The crowd applauded as Miss Robin Perkins, the 1980-81 Homecoming Queen, placed the crown upon Miss McCullough’s head. To top off the evening, there was a dance held at West High School, where the band “Roxx” was featured. 1.

Even so, they showed excellent effort in the game with Ruskin. Coach Bill Tuck com- mented, “They played like a team.” The freshmen started out their season with a loss to Fort Osage but managed to pull in two wins over Rich- mond and Liberty. The freshmen football coaches were: Lou Wisniewski (head coach), Rick Wolverton (assis- tant coach), and Bill Wohleber (assistant coach).

Everyone rushed downtown for the homecom- ing parade, which began at 2:00. The talk of high school students concerned the winning of the float competition and if their choices for princess and queen candidates were correct. H.A. Dickey was the Grand Mar- shall for this year’s 1981 Homecom- ing Parade, which was the first at- traction, followed by last year’s queen, Robin Perkins. Following her were the Tigerettes, dancing to the ESHS Marching Black and Gold Band. The next highlights were class officers, floats, candidates and cheerleaders, the biggest attraction coming from the collapsible but unique senior car. Following the varsity cheerleaders winning car were community floats. One of the cutest sights was the Vicki Thomas dance unit, followed by Little Miss and Mr. Oktoberfest. Student council members Bruce Railey and Kennan Rooney were chosen to be parade organizers and to assign parade units. They, with the help of the rest of the student council, made this year’s parade very successful. 8 homecoming parade, by Beth Babb—47 Sophs beat seniors; overtime thrills fans All week long students dressed up to show their school spirit and to rack up points for their class. The class competition scores were close all week long, and when half-time came, a hush fell over the stadium for the announcement of the winner. First of all the Senior Grid-Iron Gi- ants W.T. Jamison and Jeff Schuetz were announced as win- ners. Next came the exciting part, the game against Liberty. The game was tied 0-0 when the last second on the clock ticked away. The coaches of both teams agreed to play an overtime. Both teams would get the ball on the 10 yard line and have a chance to score. Liberty was first, but the Tigers held them from the touchdown. They did manage a field goal, however. Then Excelsior had their turn, and Mark Hartman also scored a field goal. That sent the game into the second overtime, and the Tiger fans were going wild. Liberty scored a touchdown and the extra point. The Tigers then got the ball on the 10 yard line and went for the touchdown. Craig Bal- dwin passed the ball to Wayne Seely and the Tigers scored. The tension rose for the extra point, but it was wide. Every Tiger fan was really disappointed, but the Tigers came closer than they have in a long time. Next year will bring the pistols back. 48 — football, by Paula Casto 1. Dee Ann Rowan, Beth Babb, and Kay Dickey show their school spirit by dressing up for the ’50’s day. 2.

The activi- ties offered were geared toward life- time sports. They included tennis, softball, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, weight training, aerobic danc- ing, racquetball, badminton and golf. Activities offered outside the build- ing at different locations in the com- munity included bowling at the Y- bow), racquetball, table tennis, pool and swimming at Bonuchi’s Sports Center, and swimming at the Hall of Waters. Other activities offered were flag football, soccer, and speedball. The Recreation Department in Ex- celsior Springs offered leagues for many of these activities outside of school. Through the Physical Educa- tion classes, students could learn skills that will enable them to par- ticipate throughout their lives. k 1. Dennis Seidl prepares to pass in an easy game of football. 2.

Art I-II was available for juniors and seniors. Mr. Bolin introduced students to various methods of expressing indi- vidual ideas. An assortment of sculpture, painting and drawing was the result of some talented students. Art at East was just the beginning for students. Chang- ing from Lewis to East, it offered students more freedom to express themselves with more materials. Mr. Allen gave students instruction on many ways of working with different mediums. Some students just took art to graduate, to get their fine art credit, or just because they liked it. But for others art was a way to get away from the hassles of school work and allowed them to get relief from the pressures of today. 54—art by Ronnie Dagley 1.

This year both the vocal and instrumental music students kept audiences enter- tained. Mrs. Marillyn Lansford and Mr. Brian Poston led their groups in a variety of activities. The choirs combined with the dra- ma students to perform a traditional Christmas program. The band’s winter concert helped put parents and students in festive holiday moods with a series of Christmas songs.

They were 98 lb. Eddie Bonuchi, 126 lb. Mike Snelling, and 167 lb. Cory Buckman.

They had a close season. They won 10 and lost 14. Each player gave it his best shot and tried as hard as he could. Five out of ten conference games were lost by a total of 14 points which is very good. In conference, they were in a position to tie for the championship with three games to play. They were in control of their destiny, but at that time they lost the next three games, two by close margins. They slowly watched their hopes fade away. Through the season seven games were lost by 4 points or less. The Tigers not only out rebounded their opponents but also outscored them for the season.

The staff didn’t have to worry about pasting their copy; they simply typed it and turned it in to the printer. The staff worked very hard to complete their pages before deadlines, which was a little more dif- ficult this year because of the smaller staff, each member having an in- creased work load. The Tiger yearbookers traveled to the Inter-Collegiate Press plant in Shawnee Mission where they got a first-hand look at how the entire 4 yearbook publishing process works. They also attended the Missouri Western Communications Day and had a chance to visit with profession- al journalists and college students and professors. Photojournalism students had their work cut out for them also. They had the job of taking the pictures for the school publications’ staff. Combining this work with a strong interest in in- dividual enrichment projects meant that film and flashes abounded this year. The photographers also attended Communications Day and learned from advertising and newspaper pho- tographers that there is more to a photographer than meets the eye. yearbook and photographers by Ronnie Dagley—83 Writers take silver medal at MWSC The silver award at MWSC Com- munications Day topped off a year of changes for The Excelsiorite. A new, Old English banner and a re- vised, clearer format helped to in- crease readership and support. Meeting deadlines was nothing new, but the reduced size (10) of the staff made working together a must. Most of the time, the staff pulled together, helping each other complete the various pages. With the help of its advisor and student Editor-in-chief Diane Hightower, the staff investigated is- sues that affected the lives of stu- dent readers and recognized out- standing achievements of students. 84—newspaper by Ronnie Dagley 1.

Golf team provided the school and community with spectacular performances this year. The Varsity team, consisting of senior Tom McKown, senior Jeff Schuetz, junior Marty Albertson, and sopho- more Mike Jarman, practiced hard under Coach Jim Lansford. Their outstanding achievements clearly showed this fact. The golfers were undefeated in dual competition emerging with a record of 11-0. They took second at the William Jewell Tournament and claimed third at the tough CMSU tournament at Warrensburg. The team won the conference title for the third consecutive year, where Tom McKown tied for medalist with a score of 79. Next, the Tiger golf team travelled to the District meet where they tied for first with Blue Springs. Individually, the Ti- gers took three places of the top ten. Coach Lansford commented, “It was an outstanding effort to tie Blue Springs on their own course.” That gave the Tigers their long-awaited trip to State which was held at Columbia. The Tiger golf team has at- tended State 11 times out of the past 12 years. It had a special meaning to senior Tom McKown who was there defending his title from last year when he tied for medal- ist. After the first day of competition the Tiger golfers were in fifth place. The bad news came that night and the following day when the rain made the course almost impossible to play on. At the end of the day the team had fallen to 10th place. McKown had the low score for the team with a 36-hole total of 155. Jarman followed closely with 156. Jeff Schuetz ended with a 168 and Marty Albertson with a 169. No matter how the Tiger golfers finished at State there were numerous highlights during the season. The most evident success was the win over N.K.C. where the Ti- gers tied the seven year school record by posting a four- man, nine hole total of 149. Again all four E.S.H.S. golfers claimed spots on the All-Conference teams. On the first team, Jarman was chosen number one man and McKown awas chosen num- ber two man. Second team honors were received by Schuetz, as number one man, and Albertson as number three man. So again the golfers’ hard work and dedication paid off as they completed another great season and compiled a longer list of achievements. 86—golf by Laura McCullough 1.

They end- ed up with a record of 10-5. The number one doubles team of Bruce Collins and Jeff McDaniels had a fine sea- son. They took fourth place at the district tournament in St. Joseph. One highlight of the season was a first place finish for both the Varsity and JV teams at the Cameron Tournament. The only opponents that the Tigers lost to were members of their own team. Bruce Collins inched by Jeff McDaniels for first place in singles competition and Bruce Collins and Jeff McDaniels beat John Shep- herd and Mark Sharp for first place in the doubles ac- tion. The JV team came out with another winning record of 9-5. They were led by Sophomore Greg McNamara, who had a personal record of 24-8. 88 —tennis by Paula Casto 1.

The team worked its way to a 4-15 record for the sea- son. The highlights of the season proved to be the last two games at District, accordinq to Coach Harold Scott. Six Tigers took individual All-Conference honors. Junior outfielder Mark Hartman was chosen for first team hon- ors. Sophomore third baseman Aaron Brown and senior designated hitter Scott Proctor were chosen for second team honors. Senior catcher Craig Baldwin, senior second baseman Dierk Hamilton, and sophomore centerfielder Troy O’Dell worked their way on to Honorable Mention team. Dierk Hamilton was also chosen Most Valuable Senior by his teammates. Although the record this year was not outstanding, the Tigers did take third in the Kearney Tournament and will be back again next year ready to better this year’s record. 1 1.

Mona Wilson also placed in the 100m. In the hurdles Suzanne Seal and Loretta Carder both placed in the 100m and 200m. In long distance Lori Painter placed second in the 800m.

On March 9 students from West High School participated in a Chemathon with 24 other schools. Steve Hannah, Leslie Pingle, Julie Seal, and Kim Garrett worked to- gether to pull off a first place in the Chemistry I division while Kaylynn Johnston, Tony Wilkey, James Turn- er, and Marilyn Cox won second place in the Chemistry II division. The forensics team also did su- perb work this year bringing home numerous trophies. Kennan Rooney and Diane Hightower did especially well competing at the state level. The chemistry teams and forensic team are just examples of the caliber of students that graced ESHS this year. Many accomplish- ments were made individually and are unknown to any one but the in- dividuals themselves. Thanks to the help and dedication of the administration and teachers, it has been another year of rewarding, successful learning. academics by Laura McCullough —105 StuCo provides service to school and community Student Council kept extremely busy this year, as in past years. It raised money for charities and for school im- provements and organized many of the school activities. Homecoming was the largest activity taken on by the Student Council. The council began by organizing the pa- rade, which was a total success. They also sold ribbons, sold mums, organized the crowning ceremony and had the Homecoming Dance after the game. StuCo also provided Victory dances after the home football and basketball games. These dances netted the council $1300 which was used for school improvements. Devotion of time and money for charity was a big part of council this year. The annual Chili Supper netted $431 to help needy families for Christ- mas. Thanksgiving baskets were placed in the school and were filled by the faculty and students with canned and boxed foods to give to needy families at Thanksgiving. The faculty again won the annual Student-Faculty games which netted over $100 for the Terri Tiger Scholarship fund. StuCo also held drives for the M.D., M.S., Cancer and Heart funds. Other activities of the council includ- ed Spirit Week, Courtwarming, Sadie Hawkins, blood drive and a basketball game between the faculty and a team from Channel 41.

The play was about two young people going through the hardships of growing up. Melinda, played by Leveta Wheeler, is an emotional girl full of loneliness and love. Will Hen- derson, played by Kennan Rooney, is a boy afraid of peer pressures. Kennan said the part was a chal- lenge because he didn’t know how the audience would accept a serious drama. As the play progresses. Will and Melinda are drawn closer together, and they bring out each other’s unique qualities. Tbe play was very professionally done. It dealt with a mature theme. It was a very emotional play, and we would like to congratulate the cast and crew for a job well done.

It provided pleasure and entertainment for the audience and a great sense of accomplishment for the cast and crew. The production was plagued with problems in the beginning in- cluding the replacement of the leading man and the replacement of the director. “The play was any- thing but smooth at first but we all pulled together in the end and gave some great performances,” com- mented Senior Karla Dickey. The show was actually a spoof of the English musical comedies set in the 1920’s on the outskirts of Nice. The story revolved around the Villa Caprice, a finishing school for young girls run by Madame Dubonnet, and the determination of the girls and even their mistress to find a boyfriend. Many different types of characters made the play even more enjoyable. There were superb performances by all who performed, (cont. on next page) (cont. from last page) Sandy Mills as Madame Dubonnet and Bruce Railey as Lord Brockhurst performed especially well as they claimed Best Actress and Best Actor at the awards banquet following the Satur- day matinee performance. Sandy practiced hard to get her French ac- cent down perfectly. The show was full of talent and all the excitement and energy of the Roaring 20’s.” However, all good things must come to an end and of course this show was no exception as every one got their buy and lived “happily ever after.” 118—musical by Laura McCullough 1.

Also, Robert Sanders, Assistant Superintendent, was promoted from East High School Prin- cipal, and Blake Turner was new to the district as Director of Special Services. There were rumors of many changes, such as the open lunch section at West High School being removed, which never took place. Then there were a few changes that did occur. An Awards Ceremony was added to the Graduation Activities where all scholarships and awards were announced. Also for the first time in over ten years the tradition of seniors painting the parking lot was not allowed to take place. Who is to say whether these changes will prove to be good or bad; only time will tell. If one doesn’t try new things, one will never know what the outcome might have been. 1. Robert Sanders.

She was always there to greet you with a warm smile, and she radiated her cheerfulness and enthusiasm throughout her numerous activities. She was involved in Dra- ma Club, Pep Club, basketball, track and cheerleading. An honor student, Terri was chosen by her classmates as sophomore class secre- tary and Freshman Courtwarming Princess. Terri gave to the people of our school her love, concern, faith, and encouragement, and we were very fortunate to have known her. Some say she was God’s angel on Earth. We will always carry with us the memories of Terri and the memory of her winning smile. sophomores, by Laura McCullough —143 Doris Acklin Cathy Adams Randy Ainsworth Marty Albertson Charissa Anderson Jill Andrew Joe Arnold Roy Arnold Beth Babb Lanna Baker Chris Ballinger Lora Barnett Lorrie Baxter Jeff Bennett Monty Berndt Jerry Bishop Mary Bollinger Doug Bottger Lynn Bowker Janet Bratton Cathy Brockhoff David Brunke Myra Brunke Donna Bryant Becky Bryant Denita Burks David Carlson Barb Champ Deanna Chaney Tim Clancy Lisa Clark Robbie Clark Chris Claypole Michelle Claypool Greg Clemens Debbie Clevenger Delores Filley Lora Fine Darron Frank Bob Gantt Kim Garrett Sheila Geise Doug Gilkey Johnna Goode Robbie Goode Jim Haddock Anthony Hafner Jim Hankins Steve Hannah Becky Harden Pam Harkins Jeff Harris Paul Hartke Kristina Hartman ■I ■ u 146—juniors, by Laura Wellman Wade Hogan Brenda Holmes David Holtzclaw Tammy Holtzclaw Nancy Hoskins Beverly Howerton Susie Huey Laura Hutchings Sheryl Jackson Dan Jesse Anita Jones Eddie Jones Tanya Kelley Ed Kelly Terry Kelly Linda King Kay King Rodney King Kevin Kinney Roger Kolas Kevin Kyler Jerry Lake Devery Lamley Angie LaSala Lisa Lee Tim Lecher Janet Lodwick Davey Logston Kelly Long juniors, by Laura Wellman—147 CLASS OF ’83' Doug Loomis Karole Love Brian Lynn Rick McAfee Rick McCord Scott McKown Galen Manheim Kristi Manley Dennis Marker Billy Martin Debra Martin Tammy Masters Michael Meehan Kelly Miller (Thomas) Michelle Miller Carolyn Minnis Caron Moody Lori Monney Ginger Morlan Tracey Mosley Richard Myers Tim Nonemaker Pat Ortner Kim Ousley Doug Overfield Randall Partridge Russell Partridge John Pasalich Mike Patterson Sherry Peebles Jess Peppers Leslie Pingel Bill Plattenburg Lisa Points Michelle Price Larry Radley Sheryl Redick Nora Reed Linda Reynolds Steven Rickman Tim Rigelman Jeff Roach Kennan Rooney Starr Russell Joseph Sanders Kelly Satterfield (Snelling) Gregory Schuetz Angela Scoma Laura Scoma Julie Seal Rodney St. John 4 1.

Dinner was served buffet style at the traditional Elms Hotel before the dance. The dinner consisted of roast beef, fried chicken, baked chicken, mixed vegetables, tossed salad, augratin potatoes and dessert, which consisted of many kinds of pies. After dinner music was provided by the Extremes, which, in almost everyone’s opinion, were “Excel- lent”. After the dance there were hamburgers at the golf course and then onward to the show to see “Stir Crazy” at Vibbard drive-in. The movie was over around 4:00 a.m. and everyone was on their own until breakfast at the Elks Lodge. Everyone arrived home between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m. This year’s theme was “We’ve Got Tonight” and the junior class did a very good job. Miss Durinda Loethen and Mr. Lendal Jenkins were crowned Queen and King of the 1981-82 Prom. 172—prom by Beth Babb 1. Beth Babb and Danny Williams relax after dinner. 2.

They took a pit stop around Sedalia. Stacey Wehr, at that time exper- ienced the boys’ bathroom and Jeff McDaniel also had a new experience visiting the girls’ bathroom. They piled back in their “wild and crazy” buses and cruised on down to the Ozarks. They ate at the Arrowhead Lodge in the Ozarks. After break- fast they went to the Fort of the Osage family fun park where they had the park to themselves for several hours and also had lunch at a nearby McDonalds. The seniors then traveled to Bri- dal Cave and took a tour of it. After that they went to the Bagnell Dam “strip” and had several hours of fun and play. They played on the water slides to cool off. Then they went to the Denny Hilton Opry and had a great time. ESHS was the biggest school there. Spirit was remarkable in both clapping and yelling. After the opry it was on to the Larry Don for a boat ride and dancing. Since a storm had set in, they couldn’t take the ride, so they had a disco on the boat and stayed at the dock. Then came the long travel home during which almost ev- eryone slept. The seniors arrived at West High around 6:30 a.m. Friday morning and went straight home to bed. They all had a great time and had great sponsors too. 174—senior trip kCLASS 'I 1. Durinda Loethen shows us the technique in driving the bus. 2.

very hard-working group of people. The staff put forth a great effort to meet all the dead- lines. “Change of Seasons” was chosen as the theme for the yearbook because a season can represent so many different things; a time of year, a sports activity, a time of life, a state of mind. On behalf of the staff and myself, I would like to thank the following people for all their help: Kevin Kel- ly, Ward and Sue Wollard, Mr. Dick Hyder, Mr. Larry Kopp, Mr. Art Kurth, Joe Fleming, Don Consolver, Judy Wormsley, Judy Rounkles, Nancy Dickey, Barbara Woods and the rest of the faculty. A special thanks to Mr. Wayne Ward and those few members of the yearbook staff who spent many hours of their summer in completing the annual. Without their help this annual could not have been pro- duced. I would like to give a very special and personal thanks to our advisor Mr. Bob Bair. He was always there, ready and willing to help the staff out of a tough spot. He gave the class a goal to reach for. That goal was that you shouldn’t give up on something just because it doesn’t al- ways go your way. I would also like to thank the yearbook staff for all the cooperation they gave me.
