Fairview High School - Yellow Jacket Yearbook (Fairview, OK)

Text from Pages 1 - 160 of the 1984 volume:

Volume 15 Published by the Fairview High School Jacket Staff 1000 East Elm Fairview, OK 73737 Several paths, but only one direction n August 26, 1983, 256 students arrived at school early, at least too early for most. No bell, new books, and new students ad- ded to the excitement. 'It was hard moving my senior year,’ said Lisa Johnson, but I don’t think I would've had it any other way.' Football season brought students together once a week. Winning the homecoming game started the year rolling. It's a good feeling to have won our senior homecoming game. Ever since we started playing on the high school team, it had been our goal; and we reached it!' commented Scott Neufeld. The new band director, George Farmer, brought a new marching style to our school and changed tradition. Computerized grading simplified, yet confused students and faculty. Change after change proved that we weren't just moving on . . . 2 Opening FINAL TOUCH Keith Turner and several Juniors put finishing touches on their float before the homecoming parade SNAPPING WITH THE FINGERTIPS Rod Helton receives the football from Scott Neufeld during the Hennessey game Fairview won 19 to 3.

Footloose was the movie to see and the tape to buy. The television show Lace, Cabbage Patch Kids, and Gremlins captured the attention of both young and old. English students found new books of the same sequence, while V. C. Andrew's sequel, Seeds of Yesterday, was seen clutched in the hands of book lovers at any spare moment.. A new coke machine made break time more enjoyable, although get- ting it to work had been a challenge. Competitive speech made itself right at home in competition and brought back numerous awards. Yet football fans made bets on where Marcus Dupree would make his new home after leaving O.U. Through the ups and downs, the pushes and the shoves, we learned to overcome what was ahead of us. On- ly then did we realize that we weren't just moving on; we were moving up.

SLAM!, the locker door went shut. School was out and freedom was in reach. Though the evenings were often cluttered with homework, students found time to have a good time. No matter if it were a weeknight or weekend, gossip sessions in the Pizza Hut parking lot kept many well informed and entertained. Attending rock concerts and racing down main street let students unwind. However, some found this damaging to their money supply. Quick trips to Enid for ice cream or a movie, or lunch in Orienta added variety to everyday life. The participation in sports activities skyrocketed though no real pep club existed. Speech and drama students became involved with the Fairview Com- munity Playhouse, while sports members were in- vited to lunch with the Lions Club. Event after event proved STUDENT LIFE had not only moved on, but moved up. Student Life Division 7 IN ACTION .

Former juniors were delirious with the thought they were finally seniors. No more worries, pressures, or prob- lems, except money for gas, food, clothes, sun- tan lotion, and dates. Some got jobs, others barely survived. 'How many other people do you know spent $337 on gas in two months. ' asked Leanne Shaffer. Very few high school students went to the community swimming pool. The in thing to do was to lay out at Canton Lake every weekend; some even fell asleep and ended up spending the night. When there was nothing going on at the lake, students found parking at INTEREST H. W Way.

Usually the furthest I got during the day was the walk from the T.V. after All My Children' then to my backyard to lay out.'' said Vali Libby. When Fairview became monotonous, more concerts were attended to add some excite- ment. Some decided to go to a movie Psycho II and Risky Business proved to be the most popular. Everyone complained when the summer end- ed, but the new school year was looked forward to by most. TAKE OFF Taking off at a good run.

SON Having children didn't keep Beverly Blevins and Katrina Sinor from encouraging the girls basketball team to do their best. 10 Community Seek . . . and Ye Shall Find The hunt was on. Six juniors participated in a man hunt at the beginning of the year. Dennis Mayes, a grade schooler at Longdale, was lost for fifty-two hours in the woods on his parents' farm. We went out two days for about three hours each. He was way, way out there. I don’t see how he got out so far.” Telina Reeves said about her participation in the hunt. Mishaps seemed to be the going thing for Fairview. The entire north end of town was evacuated on October 22, when a chemical truck and an oil field pick-up collided. Rob Muller, who was staying with a friend at the time of the accident said, 'I was kind of worried because my parents were supposed to come home that night, and they didn't know about the accident.' With the low economy, came the closing of many Fairview stores, the Buttonhole and Kyle's were just two; however, community spirit did not reflect the crunch and was definitely on a high. I think that overall Fairview has a very good athletic program. I'm happy with this year's records,' Pat Robinson, one of the Jacket’s most supportive fans, commented on the year's sports record. Overall support for school academics and sports was higher during the year than in many previous years, as many fans learned as they tried to find seats at home or away games. But that didn’t stop the student body from hunting for more Jacket spirit, and the hunt was successful. GETTING INVOLVED. While visiting field-marching practice.

The week started out very slowly as everyone fought for first choice of theme ideas. From the Freshmen to the Seniors, every door, float, and billboard was at last on its way by Tuesday night. “This is going to be the best year yet, commented Jenna Loftus. After hours and hours of hard team- work, the class projects were soon to be completed. But before students knew it, it was time for the annual bonfire. The Sophomores started early with a wiener roast in the park. Afterwards, they (even Keese Pond on his crutches) climbed into a huge wheat truck and dragged Main. On the way down Main, they found the Juniors loading their flatbed truck at Land- power and was stopped by the police at the State Road to let the Seniors' car caravan through the red light. The Sophomores booed , and the Seniors cheered as car after car peeled around the corner onto Main Street. The traditional outhouse, painted with Senior spirit slogans, burned bright, in the center of the Thursday night bonfire help- ing keep students, faculty and fans' spirits high even though a controversy between the Seniors and the Sophomores threat- ened to explode. Last minute work on floats and doors was attended as the Seniors' Garfield received his final coat of paint, Juniors found a hat for Yosimite Sam, and the Sophomores finished taping Woody Woodpecker's laugh. Only the Freshman's Popeye was ready for the big day. Homecoming 13 Flow of Emotions Our homecoming queen for the 1983-1984 school year is Miss Lori Schwind. Senior at Fair- view High School.' Bill Denton revealed calmly. Although it was expected, the applause was heard blocks away, and it proved to set the mood for the rest of the evening. It was super! The best part of Homecoming is to win the football game. If you lose the game, it puts a damper on everything; whereas, if you win, it just makes it all complete.' said Coach Claborn. For the First time in three years, the Jacket team had won Homecoming. By overcoming Medford in a 34-0 victory the Jackets proved once again their determination to show that they were the best. Senior players were ecstatic about winning Homecoming their last year at Fairview High. 'I felt happy. It felt just great!' David Mc- Cord exclaimed. Seniors weren't the only happy players; Sophomores were thrilled at having contributed to winning Homecoming their first year on the team. As for Juniors, it set the goal for next year. But happiness wasn’t restricted to the football team. Fans screamed; cheerleaders jumped and twisted; parents hugged and con- gratulated their sons. Emotions flowed the rest of the night and were transmitted from student to student through car horns and yells of triumph. Mary Claborn summed that feeling up for everyone when she said. 'It was a great memory.' All in all, the '83 Homecoming season only intensified the spirit contained in the student body. 14 Homecoming RIDE OF SMII.F.S Crown bearer Ryan Henderson waves EXPRESSIONS.

Students finally pushed back into the swing of the new school year. Tm not ready for this routine of getting up early.' exclaimed Teresa Schafer. But after different ac- tivities began and Friday nights were busy with football games, school spirit began to show throughout the town. Announcing the 82-83 year- books was Sherlock Holmes as Mrs. Dobbs, and the rest of the yearbook class were detectives from various television shows. It was just a cute little way of having a yearbook signing party to remember the good times and the ones to come. The yearbook sign- ing party was a really great idea for everyone; the only bad thing about it was, it was hard writing over something that happened a year ago,' Debbie Summers exclaimed. An old yearbook is better than no yearbook at all.' Fall 17 TIME OUT. Lori Schwind and Shelly Martens take a breather before a band performance. m v i STUDENT PIZAZZ Twelve girls working together to perform a routine took a lot of giving in to what someone else wanted to do. I think I learned more about getting along with others than anything else. Lori Schwind commented about her participation in the Flag Corps. We had to watch each other and give constructive criticism. Trust was the real test when we had to toss our flags and catch one from one another — that was also the fun part. It was also the part that gave the marching band GLAMOUR. VITALITY was the quality that gave Katresa Jordans winning talent number in the Miss Fairview Contest distinction. Nine years of playing the piano made Chopin s Polanaise in A Major, Theme from Ice Castles and Maple Leaf Rag come alive through Katresa's talented fingers. Howdy,” followed by that magic of being able to recall and say that person's name is Mark Fast's trademark. Students and faculty enjoyed and looked forward to their day being brightened by Mark and his warmth and friendliness. It's this kind of uniqueness that stood out above the rest and became STUDENT PIZAZZ. FAMOUS SMILE Mark Fast flashes one of his famous smiles at a track meet. DANCE FEVER.

Weightlifting was a fairly new idea which was very successful. Twenty-five boys attended a weight meet at Hennessey and came home with third place. Bringing home second place awards were: Lee Titus, Terry Newman, Scott Neufeld, and David Metz. My first weight meet I was excited and wanted to see what I could do. replied Jimmy Kingcade. Each boy came home with at least one award. The coaches even got in on the act with muscle ton- ing and body building. Displaying hard work and dedication, Stan Shewey realized it was worth it all when he was chosen to play on the All-State Basketball Team in Tulsa, Oklahoma. August 2. Is is worth a stomach ache? David Nickel had to ask himself as he saw the huge pile of spaghetti on his plate. The outcome of the, FHA sponsored, spaghetti-eating contest prov- ed to him it was worth it all when David and his comrades won first place. These activities, dedication, and fun are what made Winter one of the most exciting seasons. BEAT JONES!!

COACHESi’.'' Well no. but Justin Clow and Duane Frerichs like to add their views at the many sports events. Winter 21 Springtime Reaps Side Benefit Spring could be expressed as extremely busy but fun. Student participation in many activities such as the Community Theatre in which each speech class gave two one-act plays, and the Spring Arts Festival brought many students closer together. Sixty percent of the student body participated in the Spring Arts Festival and everyone attended when school was dismissed from twelve to one for lunch. Vali Libby was crowned Miss Fairview in late April. Ronda Cunningham, a participant in the pageant, commented about the girls' participation in her class. It brought us closer together than we have been since grade school. A busy but fun springtime reaped a side benefit — old friendships were rekindled. 22 Spring CONGRATULATIONS!

Too Hot, Too Fast It's not that students don’t like school, they just happen to like summer better. With the rise in temperature and the thought of sleeping in, class was unbearable. Fortunately StuCo’s annual Sadie Hawkins week gave need- ed relief to those with summer fever. The Sadie Hawkins talent show included Mark Fosters No Parking on the Dance Floor!’ Michael Jackson's Beat It’ was music to Deb’s Ford routine while Weird Al Yankovich's Eat It’ set the pace to the Pudding Heads eating contest. Graduation slipped up on most everyone. even the roses. Word was out that if you had relatives from another town, you should notify them and tell the archbearers. Although students were upset about the ex- tra day being tacked on at the end of the year because of New Year falling on Sunday, students made the best of it. I wouldn’t have missed the bowl games anyway,” said Justin Clow. One event after the other let the days slip by and before everyone knew it, it was time to clean lockers and turn in books. 24 May Sadic Hawkins SINGIN' THE BLUES. Air band member.

With all the hard work still lying ahead, the planning for the banquet on May 12 began. As in the years past, the theme was a big secret, but as in the years past, Puttin' on the Ritz” leaked out. On May 12, guys could be seen picking up tuxes, and gals could be seen uptown doing last minute shopping. Then it was off to the Fair Building where some of the juniors’ dads parked cars for owners. This reminded the ladies and gentlemen of a very fine restuarant. I don’t think I trust them driving my car,” said Dewayne Moneypenny. Flashing lights drew couples to Mr. Friesen’s camera taking photographs for souvenirs. ’Mrs. Nancy Winn, Mr. Ed Winn,” each name was sounded as Charley Owens, Ronda Cunningham or Tracy Graham announced names, and servers escorted those in attendance to a table. Party poppers, hats, cans, and many other ob- jects were part of the table decor that amused guests. After a time of dinner conversation, Lori Cravens, Gina Quiring, Jean Katzung, and Shel- ly Wanzer started the ball rolling when they were first in line at the salad bar. While the line grew. Heath Yarbrough, Allen Sandefur, and others swiped party poppers pulling the strings to frighten the girls. Waiters continued to escort teachers and students to the food line catered by Libby’s. Tracy Graham's welcome began the program consisting of photos of juniors and seniors with amusing captions. The Banquet King and Queen contest was a first with Mary Claborn, Duane Frerichs, Janie Edwards, Eddie Winn, Stan Shewey, and Sandy Stepp as contestants. Janie Edwards and Eddie Winn reigned as Banquet King and Queen. For another first, participants enjoyed ban- quet glasses as a table accent and favors. Balloons, lights, and stars also served seniors in 'Puttin' on the Ritz.” GOSSIP AND MORE GOSSIP Tammy Bowlware tells Molly Edwards some good gossip as they sit at the head table.

But the only thing skipped is class, not the work. With 'The Final Chapter’ as their theme, seniors began taking ideas and forming them into 'pieces of art.’ 'You only do this once, so ya gotta do it up right!’ said Butch Walenta. A 10 ft. by 10 ft. wooden book with sheetrock pages took the audience from the history where Danny Harris first per- formed his Coo-Doo Monkey call to the prophecy where the crystal ball showed Curtis Turner leading tourists through the Grand Canyon. Getting together had not been easy; nor was making the book with pages that turn- ed. But with the determination and help of seniors and their parents, the show went on. The final phase brought senior class members closer as they sang Kenny Rogers' 'Through the Years' for the au- dience, as well as for themselves. FROM THE HEART Tammy Boulware and lanie Edwards read the class poem as a duet. Seniors found the poem so appropriate and so original tears fell all through the reading Class Night 29 ESCORTS OF THE EVENING.

No tickets were necessary, just a cap with tassel, gown, and 22 credits. Three rows of seats had been reserved for them, and a fourth for their escorts. The grand opening of ‘ Pomp and Cir- cumstance'' overwhelmed seniors. The crowd stood as they marched in two by two, step by step. When every senior stood before his chair, the heavy chord of the piano signaled them to sit down. Through the speeches of co-valedictorians. Rod Helton and Scott Neufeld, seniors sat ner- vously fanning themselves with the evening's program. Rita Baker sang a song she composed herself, and Lori Schwind and Judy Unruh per- formed a flute duet. All too soon it was time to stand and become a graduate. One at a time, each senior walked across the stage as a student and stepped off as an alumni of Fairview High School. JO Graduation LEVEL HEADED. Graduating senior.

But the sense of achievement and the extra ac- tivities made learning an experience. Whether it was making homemade kites in geometry or producing a school paper in study hall, students enjoyed being able to participate. 'I missed not having a school paper, so Vali and I suggested we make one in study hall,' said Kim ftowe, 'we had two editions before we were moved to sociology.' The hum-drum of class was occasionally broken by outside activities such as watching janitors Bruce Lowder and Kerri Burroughs skillfully climb to the top of the gymnasium dome to repair skylights broken the night before by hail. Kerri found it slow moving because of her boots. Although scheduling classes had been difficult for some, others had trouble just remembering the names of their classes. Explanations like, 'you know that class Mr. Beck teaches, and they use that new car,' or 'the class I have in that room down there' were signs of boggled minds. As class ended each day, students left know- ing and feeling they were on their way up in ACADEMICS. Academics Division 33 DON’T BURN YOURSELF!

TOMORROW TOMORROW Famous lines from Macbeth could be heard by seniors getting ready for Mrs. Burns' English class in the corridor before school started. While the Juniors were learning lines from all American authors, the sophomores listened to records and wrote daily journals over Julius Caesar, and the Freshmen read Romeo and Juliet. Rita Sandefur said, 'I found Romeo and Juliet much easier since I studied it when I lived in Iowa for a few months previously. All the hard work was finally rewarded when the anthol- ogy was revealed at the Fine Arts Festival on April 3. The anthology had a little something for everyone from poetry, to creative writings to photos. Duane Frerichs was honored with a plaque for having the best cover design. 'I just started drawing things like Heath Yarbrough's Addidas shoes and Scott Neufeld's pocket of his Wrangler jeans.’ One emblem led to another to capture the total spirit of the year for the cover design for Fantasy and Finesse.’ M Language Arts BETTER NOT MESS WITH ME Jon Eisenhauer acts like Tom Sawyer for his book report in English II. ♦1 ' ••Ml PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME.

The next project was a metric 500 car and made out of a block of wood. After the carving, sanding, painting, and meeting careful weight specifications, the car was ready for a local contest sponsored by AIASA. The winners for level II were Jody Pippin, first; Kenny Howerton, second; Jeff Couch, third. In the high school level III were Nathan Ot- tosen, first; Mark Proa, second; and Scott Penner, third. Each winner ad- vanced to the district championship at SWOSU. Joe Halcomb, Mark Hobbs, Rob Mueller, Tim Jines, Bill Ratzlaff, Randy Weins, Scott Pen- ner, Nathan Ottosen all placed in a level of I or II. A new pottery wheel and kiln added a new project to the art class. It was big improvement to the class because we could do more projects,” added Shawn Littrell. The Fine Arts Festival was a perfect time for students to show off projects made throughout the year, and the cover design unveiled at the Fine Arts Festival for the anthology inspired artist's creativity with Duane Frerichs winning the honor. !A1ASA WON ALL THIS.

Students receive training for a variety of jobs in the fields of Auto Mechanics, Business and Office, Diesel Mechanics, Health Services, Welding, and Farm Mechanics. In business the students mostly work on their own time, and the types of jobs vary. At the beginning of the year, the work is pretty well pressured, but now we are just mopping up the last of it. remarked Mrs. Ensminger about her students training for secretaries and general office clerks. If doing tune-ups and working on engines is your bag. Auto Mechanics may be the place chosen to learn automobile repair and maintenance. I think Vo-Tech will help me with the job I have planned for in the future. remarked Chad Carey about his future in auto mechanics. A relaxed atmosphere and friendly people make it easy for a new beginner to fit in. After working all morning or afternoon, the students get a ten to fifteen minute snack break. These breaks often strengthen the bonds between Canton. Ringwood, Ames, Aline-Cleo, Okeene, Seiling and Fairview. Training for that chosen lifestyle and learning to work with others is a part of the everyday life of the students who attend Vo-Tech. A FEW MINUTES OUT.

The home economics girls were off to a busy start with the enrollment of FHA and all of the activities it involved. Cooking filled the weeks that passed, and then it was time to begin sewing. Picking an outfit that was more difficult was a requirement that did not agree with everyone. The thread won’t stand still,” replied Lois Janzen. Learning the history of FFA began the freshmen Vo-Ag students' year; the other students were learning advance problems and answers having to do with soil and animals. Around Christmas time, the Freshmen felt that the world had ended when Mr. De Muth and Mr. Todd informed them that they were required to write, prepare, and present a speech in the next thirty days. Home Ec.-Vo Ag 41 WIZard or Wonders?! Is it hard !! exclaimed Jean Katzung with annoyance as she displayed pages of equations that had been erased and re-erased and scratched through to make balance for Mr. Sellers' chemistry class. While chemistry students were worrying over unbalanced equations, biology students were warned to watch when they were boiling their iodine. 'I just had to see what would hap- pen,' explained Jenni Winn, but unfortunately Angela Cor- nelson was standing too close, and it boiled all over her new white sweatshirt.' The freshmen in physical science would rather hear about Mr. Nelson's relatives or foreign countries, but the inevitable test — the first nine-weeks test — left many unprepared. Jamie Martens said afterwards, 'It wasn't that hard, but it would have been much easier if I would have put forth more effort at the first of the year.' Computer Wizard pins were seen on coats, purses, bulletin boards, and in cars for students who received A s for the the third nine weeks in computer sciences. Wizard or Wonders?!

EXPECT the UNEXPECTED Building sundials, polyhedra models, and geodesic domes wasn't the only outside task that Mrs. Schultz's unsuspecting geometry class had been assigned. The first day of class fourteen students were told what would be expected of them. After turning in their projects, they thought they would be working out of the text for the next semester, but those prayers just weren't to be answered. No sooner had the grades been recorded on the first than the second surprise was announced — kites! They all had to make their own kites . . . and they had to fly! T made two and neither one of them would fly!' Loretta Pendergraft revealed about her attempts. It was obvious that some were more skillful at kite con- struction than others. While the geometry class was hammering and flying, the consumer math students were busy looking into the real estate business. Learning about real estate wasn't easy, but it's something that everyone needed to know,' Tracy Graham said about her studies. Pythagorean and quadratic may be old stuff to Algebra II students, but for the first timers in Algebra I they were just new additions to an already heavy brainload. While Algebra I students were trying to cope with new terms Algebra II victims were dealing with sines, cosines, and tangents. Algebra II obviously wasn't an easy class. Many students who were enrolled in the class, dropped it during the two-week trial period. Katresa Jordan was one of those lucky ones who had the class all year. Since it'll help me in college. I'm glad I took the class, but since it was so tough. I'm glad it's over.' Math classes were not what was expected.

Glancing into room 11 during third hour could prove to be amusing as well as educational. For instance; one day all twelve tables were pushed to the sides of the room. There were two rows of chairs with one chair behind the other. Students were sitting in those chairs. The instructor, Mr. Jim Blevins, tapped each stu- dent sitting on the end on the shoulder. The students then did the same thing to the person sitting in front of them and so on. No, they were not playing follow the leader. They were learning how the brain sends messages through the body to cause muscle movement. Psychology sociology students found this and other ex- periments unique.

Fortunately, just as Eddie Winn had left the room to tell the mother where they went, each child appeared from around the corner, one by one. Curiosity and fear were the conclusions made from the actions of the children. They knew what was going to happen when they returned, said Mr. Blevins. Less amusing was the annual bug hunt in zoology. The smell was the worst part, said Terry Wimer. Grades were given according to the number of specimens found.

Typing I students repeated their assignments as well as their mistakes. It's not that it's hard, but you never see your mistake until it's too late,' said Kim Young. Experts in Typing II breezed through their assignments in order to learn how to use the new computerized typewriter from Den- ton's Office and Supply. Vo-Tech student Dena Schafer said, Learning to keep books and work the computer on pre-planned problems is one thing; working for someone and using the skills you have acquired to a real life problem is another after working at Burrell's for her on-the-job training. Business English students were required to keep a diary of current events and thoughts. It's hard to just write down the important things without writing everything down, explained George Artis.

Football Under The Watchful Eye Under the watchful eye of Coach Claborn and his assistants, Jim Blevins and Doug Sinor, it was said A good solid football team is being molded, but I have the feeling that anybody caught loafing will be watching the game from the sidelines.' With this in mind, the football team was out giving their 110 percent when temperatures were over 100 degrees in two-a-days during the first week of August. The Gatorade and cookies the cheerleaders brought the team on these days were cheerfully welcomed. It was great to know that we had a good enough cheerleading squad to do such a thing for us, commented Kevin Hougland. The fans and students were rewarded with the teams' ef- fort when they kept the offense and defense from scoring in the two-way scrimmage with Turpin and Beaver. The team was ready for the first game of the season with Thomas. As it came near, the team and the student body gave evidence of their enthusiasm with the predominant wearing of the orange.

Corey Ratzlaff said, It was the first game of the year and we put all we had into the game. The loss of their first game didn't keep them down. As the old saying says, lump right back into the sad- dle, and that is what they did for their next game with Shattuck. Even though they lost to Shattuck 8-26, they went out to practice giving 110%. With the first three games on the bad side, the team was not going to let the past interfere with the future. Putting the past behind paid off when they beat Watonga 8-0. Jr. H.

At times we only had three guards, and if one fouled out we would have to make a floor change, taking a forward and playing them as a guard, Susan Helton explained. While the foreards were running down to become guards on the Junior Varsity courts, the Junior High coaches were worried about all their extra players for the defensive end of the court. Most of them got to play. Coach York would put one in right after another, trying to find someone to get the job done right, Amy Wells said. The floor changes did not seem to damage the playing of the J.V. team though. They ended the season with a 9-3 win- ning record. JR. HIGH GIRLS — Front Row: Jody Ward, Misty Neal, Amy Wells.

'I don't even want to think about how much we ran during practice!' exclaimed Lois Janzen. Weights were used to help build more muscles and even though different events had different amounts of running, each had eough to keep them busy for hours each day. In rain or snow, most preferred running outdoors. There's too much difference in the track field and the gym floors, and it messes your pace up,' said Shelly Martens.

'Nothing is harder than singing ahs because you don't know where you are; you get lost,’ Mr. Alig explained to his class. The ahs weren't the only place a person could get lost in choir. Clapping rhythms was another place of confusion although Deborah Winegart and Kim Young didn't seem to have any problems. It's a little confusing at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's really easy,' Kim revealed. While Kim and Deborah might have specialized in rhythms, Alana Gunsaulis was busy trying to further her career. After graduating from high school, Alana plans to make her career in music. 'I dedicated my life to the Lord through the music ministry,' explained Alana. Although Alana sings mostly gospel rock, she does revert to hymns at times. While the rest of the school was busy planning on what to eat. or what not to eat, the choir was busy rehearsing for the O.S.U. Thanksgiving Music Festival. After leaving at 6:30 a.m. in the morning and returning at 10:30 p.m. that night, more than one of the students was tired. Although all this sounded like fun, the choir students worked hard. But for most, the hard work paid off in terms of doing something they enjoyed — singing — and knowing that they did it well. CHORUS — Front Row: Melissa Weems. Deborah Winegart. Timarie Sim- mons.

A little more successful was the National Honor Society's installation at the Baptist Church. The NHS also helped set up open house and arrange for'parents to attend their child’s classes. It was strange not going to your own open house said Lori Cravens, but if that’s the way they want it, it’s Fine by me! GIR1.S FCA — Front Row: Kara Fnesen, Dedra Meador. Tammy Boulware.

Ron- da Cunningham and Georgean Moore competed in the State FFA Speech Contest and were in the top ten of their divi- sion. Each chapter competed in several contests and attend- ed various events. This was the First year that our AIASA Chapter had really competed and been active, commented Mark Wilson. The FFA Chapter had Five State Farmers, Scott Neufeld, Stan Shewey, Butch Walenta, Michelle Gard and Georgean Moore. The FFA Chapter recieved Gold Emblem at the State Convention and was awarded the Superior Chapter Award. The AIASA Chapter was the second outstanding chapter in the state.

AIASA 85 WHY ME'.' were the thoughts running through the minds of Tracy Graham and Duane Frerichsat the annual FHA Sweetheart Banquet. Not Always — a bed of roses Red, pink, and white hearts, streamers and balloons ac- cented the theme of Total Eclipse of the Heart' as Tracy Graham delivered the kiss to Duane Frerichs making the crowning of beau official at the annual Sweetheart Banquet. Pretty dresses and romantic lighting have a tendency to make life seem glamorous, but rosebuds were not present as twelve pounds of spaghetti was dished out to the contestants from FHA, FFA, and AIASA in the first spaghetti eating contest to be held each leap year. The boys from AIASA: David Nickel, Rodney Wichert, and Jeff Reeder took first place. The spaghetti needed more sauce ’ commented Rodney Wichert as he downed his last plateful. Second place went to none other than the FHA girls: Lisa Bradford. Rita Sandefur, and Lana Wienstroer. Rosebuds started blooming as excitement and anticiption came to a peak at 6:30 a.m. when twenty-eight very sleepy girls loaded the bus headed for Oklahoma City. The girls looked forward to a stay in the luxurious Hilton Inn and din- ing in the apple auroma-filled Applewoods. Saturday morning after shopping at Crossroads, the rain and bad weather helped the girls get ready to go home faster. T was ready to get home after having to change motel rooms twice which moved us farther from everyone else,” commented Gina Meyer. Decorations and formats, fear and panic . . . these ex- periences proved a successful year was not always a bed of roses. First Row: Donna Clifford, Lisa Bradford, Lana Wienstroer, Shirley Keeton.

Things like favorite poems and pictures, makeup and mirrors, even ice cream and chocolate cake were what made home seem a little bit closer. Reminder pads, poems, pictures, posters, and descriptive stickers lined the walls and doors of many lockers. From a picture of the school building to a shot of Tom Selleck or Bonnie Tyler, students gazed at their favorite faces every day. What couldn't be found in lockers could most likely be found in a purse. Several junior and senior girls began carrying very- large shoulder bags. 'I can fit everything I need into it.' Molly Edwards explained about her bag. Contents of lockers and purses weren't the only familiarities of home. For those students who traveled to another town for school activities, it was simple enough to pack a favorite pillow and blanket, portable stereo, tapes, and possibly breakfast. Speech students who participated in or students who saw the dinner theatre and or the community theatre might have been able to relate to the emphasis on family relations. These productions seemed to drive home the already present emotional involvement students displayed in making everywhere they went. . . just like home.

Afterwards the group was faced with returning home to the difficult task of hands on” hard work. Year- book is fun, but when it comes deadline time it’s the pits,” exclaimed Donna Clifford. The first hectic time for the photography was the first deadline. We've received enough photographic assignments that we now have enough to play cards,” exclaimed Dean Meyer. After things had settled down and deadlines had been met, everything sailed pretty smooth until time for the next deadline. The year began with a workshop at Enid with the year- book and photography attending. I found out a lot of things about yearbook that I never even dreamed of before,” quoted Tracy Graham. Even photography class had to talk in picas, copy, and layout designs. Publications 93 New Faces and Old Friends Klink. klunk, klink, klunk, klink, klunk, plop, psh — sh, fizz —, pop.

I wasn't here at the time, but I heard that StuCo had to cancel their Christmas party because Miss Vanderwork was in the hospital. I wish I could have been here for Homecoming. I heard it was great! The student council added billboards for each class to decorate with the theme of T.V. series. These billboards were added to the competition. Dress-up week became part of class competition for Sadie Hawkin s Day. It was really neat seeing all the kids dressed up in western and 50’s style clothing. But the neatest of all was Nerd Day. Molly Edwards and Dewayne Moneypenny were named Nerd Queen and King. They really looked like nerds, too. But they weren’t alone. Grub Day went well too, until everyone left me for the city park. Oh, well, they’ll be back. I hope they have fun, so I can hear everybody talking about it when they come back. Well, everybody must have had fun because all they did was joke and laugh when they returned. Now everyone’s going to leave me for the summer.

They became closer in academics and sports. The creation of Hawaiian Punch, inspired fans during basketball season. Spaghetti eating contests and bake sales promoted the various organizations. Even research papers brought students together. Everyone is helping everyone else find information,' said Tammy Boulware. Time played its part as well as the television program, THE DAY AFTER. Students became more aware of life and began thinking about their future. '84 had arrived. George Orwell's prediction had not. Life kept moving on and so did the people who made it worthwhile.

Research papers, holding jobs, and participating in sports made seniors feel their age. Physical fitness was Belinda Farrands goal when she went out for track. Competition soon krept its way in. 'Sacrifice,' said Rodney Wichert. 'It was either a job or sports. I needed the job.' Many made the same decision, yet a small few hung in there. ’Twenty pounds! smiled Dena Schafer, whose schedule was never dull, school, work, fitness factory and work. Day after day, all had one thing in common. Without pain ... there was no gain.

Spoiled' was one way to describe Melinda Woodard after just a few days of sleeping in. 'I didn't know how I was going to come back and miss my soap operas.' Many had mixed feelings about school. 'I wanted to come back but then again I didn't,' said Georgean Moore. Research papers had seniors feeling hesitant. However, none of the work had to be done during Christmas break. So they relaxed, a little. The days slipped by too quickly. January 3rd had arrived. At least we got to watch the bowl games,' replied Justin Clow.

Shelley Martens puts a handkerchief on Shelly Wanzer for a blindness experiment in psychology. After the Soon after the first bell rang for the classes to begin, the juniors knew that the year wasn't going to be an easy one after all. I think I've learned more about commas this year than any other year, since all I hear is Put a com- ma before a subordinate clause not after.' Gina Quiring commented. Doing their own thing caused problems when scheduling a class meeting so that everyone could at- tend. With thirty-seven percent of First Bell the class attending Vo-Tech, and others going out of town to the Red Shed for lunch, the scheduling problem increased. Although the juniors were undecided on a fund raiser for the Junior-Senior Banquet, Tracy Graham, President, commented, 'We officers have gone through four ideas; then we decided to take a consensus. The class centered upon selling orange and black stadium cups.’ After deciding on • • • the fund raiser, it was time to make plans for the banquet itself. A class meeting was held to vote on a theme. Afterwards it was an- nounced to the officers that the theme would be Puttin on the Ritz,' which was suggested by Charlie Owens. Even though the juniors were busy with outside activities, they still found time for school-related ones. 108 Juniors Terri Archer Mallory Bowers Tim Bowers Carla Bowman Chad Carey Kenny Clair Allen Coffey Mary Coffey Kim Cravens Lori Cravens Kelly Cunningham Ronda Cunningham Barbara Doane Vince Eitzen Jerry Gould Tracy Graham Jason Helm Jerry Hobbs Michelle Hougland Katresa Jordan Jeff Kahn Renee Kahn Jean Katzung Shirley Keeton Kathy Kelly Vali Libby Shelley Martens Donn McCord Laurie Merrill Juniors 109 • • • Lunch On The Run When the bell rings at 12:20 the classroom doors swing open with hungry students hurrying to their lockers. Loud yells can be heard down the hall calling to a friend. Where are we going ' and the ever frequent Are you going home for lunch ' seem to fill the halls like an echo. Some juniors had already made plans for lunch by rushing to the lobby before the beginning of fourth hour for the use of the public phone to call the Pizza Hut or the Sonic. If there was no time to call, the Kwik Pik was always near with fried chicken and frozen sand- wiches but rushing to the parking lot could be hazardous to the lives of students. With everyone trying to get away, the gravel stirred and cars turned in every direction. The ten extra minutes helped the four junior guys make it back in time from their Friday scenic route for lunch at Orienta. Soon everyone was returning to school with full stomachs, and the ever known question began Do you have any gum ' and What did you have for lunch ' When asked, Doug Stockstill would reply, 'I had two cans of cold lasagna.' As the bell rang for the classes to resume, the journey back to the classes is as slow as possible, so some good can be chewed out of the piece of gum not allowed in school, and some could catch up on the gossip that each one of them heard over lunch.

When the Driver’s Ed. car ar- rived, the students were excited. After weeks of sitting in the classroom just taking tests, sophomores were ready to begin driving. The time then arrived to get per- mits. Everyday sophomores were seen heading for the courthouse to take the mandatory test for getting permits. As the year progressed, there became more sophomores getting permits and licenses. 'What a scary feeling!' exclaim- ed Tammy Newman after taking her driver’s test required for ob- taining her license. When asked how she felt about taking her final driver’s test to get her license, Sherry Neufeld replied, T was very scared, and 1 didn’t think I was going to pass, but after it was over I felt a lot better.’ Sophomores were glad to give up the problems nondrivers en- counter as members respectively turned, 'Sweet Sixteen.'

It seemed to be the year of the Sophomores, as the largest class in the high school had two members starting on the football team and one on the boy's basketball team. On many occasions spectators at the girl's basketball games saw five Sophomore girls dominating. The Sophomores had four girls on the cheerleading squad. Also, in FFA, FHA, AIASA and the speech debate team, the sophomores remained fiercely competitive with the highly ac- claimed upperclassmen. In academics, the sophomore class almost always had far more students on the honor roll than any other class and a substantial amount of students in National Honor Society. In Home Ec. II, the first thing accomplished was sewing. Trina McDonald was caught right before the Spring model Show without having any sleeves in her shirt for modeling. Most Sophomore students took typing. I took typing because I thought you could type at your own speed said Brian Meister. Typing is not hard if I know what is going on in class and listen while Mrs. Ward is explaining what to do, said Alana Gunsaulis. Sophomore 115 Working Out . . . The survival of the fittest had the freshman class working hard to keep up with the fast pace. Where is room sixteen.'” and Who's Mr. Nelson.' were shouted down the halls the first day of school. For the first time, they had class dues to pay. At homecoming they learned quickly that they had to be responsible. They worked hard on their Pop'em in the eye' float. Even Mr. Bowers, the wood in- structor and freshman class spon- sor, let the Wood I class take time out from drafting to work on it. However, they took fourth place. Besides the homecoming pro- jects, the freshman cheerleaders put great effort in learning new routines. I heard being a cheerleader would be a lot of hard work. At first I didn't believe it. but after going to camp, learning routines, hanging locker signs, and learning cheers and chants, I can understand why this was said. replied Becky Wilson. They sup- ported the junior high football and basketball teams on to victory at home and on the road. The freshmen worked out their few problems during the first semester. Most of them started to do better in Oklahoma History. World History was made a require- ment by the State of Oklahoma in- stead of Careers. It's hard; we've got six pages of reports due! ex- claimed David Heer. I think I'd rather have Careers. One o! the hardest workouts was during second semester when the off-season football players were busy getting in shape. Being fit, they did survive. And upon completion of most of the year.

A roup of them was gathered in the halls, in the doorways and almost everywhere around. Many times a cluster of girls blocked the halls and anybody who walked by was sure to hear the chuckles. As for the freshman guys, they paid no attention catch- ing up in the next class was their concern. I thought the homework would have eased up by now. said Mike Mongold but we seem to be getting more. At anytime of the year, anyone who walked by Mrs. Shultz's Algebra I class would notice a half dozen heads poking out the door- way observing the students as the hurried by before the bell rang. Kidd Dr ug seemed to be a popular downtown eating place at lunch. There would be a batch gathered around there almost everyday to order a chuck-wagon and coke. Afterwards they proceeded on a long walk back to school, except for when they could catch a ride with an upperclassman. I don’t worry about transportation too much. I just catch a ride whenever I can, replied Mike Miller. It won t be long before I get my license anyway. All the freshmen pulled together to make it a good year while hav- ing a good time.

WORKING HARD or at least trying to look like it, the eighth graders decided it was time to finish. 'Hey Dude’ 'Step Aside Please’ From ’Hey Dude’ to Step aside please’ the mighty eighth graders were on their way. Slang words and sayings were only a part of what made the eighth graders unique. Getting a taste of Junior High Sports, fans found out just how competitive the eighth graders really were. Adjusting to two new classes, Industrial Arts and Home Living, was only one surprise awaiting the upperclassmen. Tim Woods could not believe it Another hour; they’ve added another hour!’ He exclaimed. When in reality they had shortened the seven, forty-five minute classes to eight, forty minute ones. Some of the students enjoy having eight classes because they have a new class. Other students didn’t like it because the classes were too short so they didn’t learn as much. A major upset during the eighth grade year was the nuclear war scare. One show watched by most was The Day After’ dealing with the aftermath of nuclear war. The show caused everyone to think about what would happen if we were to have a nuclear war; how would we defend ourselves? At the eighth grade level, students began to think about what occupation they would like to fulfill as adults. They wanted to be anything from teachers to doc- tors. When asked, Lance Helm responded that he would like to work for NASA someday. There’s no doubt about it Step aside please’ will be heard on their way up. 8th Grade 121 Getting Adjusted to . . . Musical Rooms Getting adjusted wasn't easy for the seventh graders when their classrooms played musical chairs. Having the library enlarged and remodeled shifted everyone from room to room. Other changes were noticeable. Science classes studied nuclear war for the first time which brought on several different opinions on the movie The Day After. Justin Edsel thought it stressed a good point about what could happen to him in the future. 'I realized that it was real, and it started to scare me.' stated Kela Friesen. But Tracy Jines had a more positive attitude about the movie. Even if we were ever in a nuclear war. somebody would sur- vive. They could rebuild everything. But. I personally would like to be ZAPPED down and kill- ed on the spot!' joked Tracy. 'Do I have to? could be heard coming from Miss Lovejoy's class when they were video taping reports over the Declaration of In- dependence. which wasn’t their favorite thing to do. But we all lived through it,' stated Chad Reed. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.' When the music of the year stopped, and all adjustments were made, the seventh graders proved to be winners. TALKING INSTEAD OF WORKING was a favorite pastime for Shawn Houk and Wade Wcmstroer while Chad Reed and Darin Burrell try to do their work HARD AT WORK Tracey Jines and Amy Lamb work on their Science projects for the annual Science Fair. 122 7th Grade Hollie Adamson Kristy Ake Misty Being Charles Bowers Gaylena Box J.

The Sixth grade boys did an ex- cellent job playing football. Mr. Heaton is an excellent coach, quoted Todd McCue. This is Mr. Heaton s first year as a coach at Fairview. The sixth graders playing basketball were really nervous that night before the first game. When asked why she was so nervous, Kyna Swanson stated. I was ner- vous to be playing in my first game. Gary Gunter was just plain nervous about playing. This was their first game in an actual basket- ball season. Mr. Sackefs sixth grade science class had started something new. By utilizing the instruments they had in the room, they found the temperature, the wind direction, and the barametric pressure. Attending a scholastic meet was also a first. These people came back with awards: Jason Sauter, Beth Cunningham, and Clint Martens. 124 6th Grade Travis Archer Brad Bailey Randall Barnard Mike Bradford Nathan Brown Galon Clifford Kelli Clow Travis Conrad Beth Cunningham Chris Cunningham Darren DeLong Brett Dobbs Melissa Drisbach Kent Farrand Kile Forbes Diane Ford Mandy Eck Cindy Gifford Debbie Good son Gary Gunter Jason Hagar Jon Haight Chene Haley Crystal Hansel Danelle Hayes Tim Heer Jackie Ffendricks Sarah Houk Jason Howry Melanie Inman Chad Kliewer Scott Kliewer Misty Koehn Mark Landes Shelley Larsen Robert Laverty Clint Martens Todd McCue Allen McDaniel Greg McKinney Larry Miller Kent Nichols Kyle Nichols Daren O’Meara Christi Overstreet Denaye Parker Johnny Pendergraft Greg Peterson Danny Pippin Mark Polum Jon Salyer Jason Sauter Beverly Settle Jody Stafford Kyna Swanson Lisa Ward Trevor Wichert Christina Whitman Melanie Woodard Mandy Woods in 6th Grade DRIBBLE POWER Some of the fifth grade girls demonstrate their dribbling skill during halftime of a high school basketball game NO FUN' For Sheila Harris sitting in the back of the room isn't any fun during a math game.

Having to make a choice of band or choir, they couldn't have their usual grade school music pro- grams; however. Mrs. Claborn's Social Sutdies class put on a small program entitled Hee Haw ' The program included almost all of the fifth graders, and they all seemed to enjoy it. 'We all worked well together. It was fun singing the songs and doing the skits for the other students and our parents,' remarked Chad Hlwell. The band students learned how to play their various instruments which can be very nerve racking even to a fifth grader. Smiles and tears were both present on tryout days. For the first time, their music had to be memorized for the Christmas program. We played awful because none of us had our music memorized,' replied Dotti Moore. For the fifth graders, being at the top' required more decision making and responsibility for the first time. MULTIPLICATION!

The holiday spirit was not to be outdone! Rooms were heavi- ly decorated each season with anything from skeletons and ghosts to eggs and the Easter Bunny. Upon asking the fourth graders their favorite sport, football ranked first. Jeff Keefer said, 'I like foot- ball because you get tackled and you get to run.' In class the students were motivated to work hard which earned them the privilege of a field trip each nine weeks. Color codes were set up by the amount of work the student gets finished. After reaching her first color, Lynn Shoemaker said. It really felt good to know I could do it the first time and know I could do it again. Sounds like O-o neat’ and How freaky' were heard in Mrs. Haworth's science class while ex- perimenting the effects of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Doing ex- periments are my favorite,' replied Sonya Beck. Math class, instructed by Mrs. Simmons, was one of experience and learning. The students received the basic ground rules to assist them for the rest of their lives. Ad- dition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, were words common- ly heard in the class. Mrs. Bryant, the English teacher, brought out creativity in some of her students. During Halloween, the fourth graders' minds were filled with ghost and goblin stories. Once written, they were quite exciting to read. As the year advanced, the fourth grade class moved up in many other areas besides read'in, rit'in. and rithmatic. THEY ACTUALLY DO WORKIJason Wimer.

No one thinks they appreciate their sur- roundings or have comments about how good of an education they're receiving. ‘I think it’s neat the way our classrooms are open. We can see each other, but it's always quiet,' said Angie Voth. Many agreed that their school s unique style was something to talk about. With classes ranging from Math to Creative Writing, the third graders were kept busy. 'Our teachers are all nice. The best times are when they let us draw’ said Krista Martens. The special moments they'll all remember of their third grade year was parading around in their costumes on Halloween and sing- ing in their school play.

A Little Variety Hobbies, hobbies, and more hobbies — the second grade class seemed to know what they liked to do in their spare time and wouldn't be pressured into changing their minds. 'You put 'em together and make stuff, create stuff, without buying stuff,’Jacque Workman said about her shell collection. Lynel Beck began collecting shells because you can hear sounds in ’em.' Josh Diesselhorst, perhaps a future runningback or wide receiver for the Jackets, was a very optimistic critic about this year's record. Collecting dolls was one thing Ashley McCue, Autumn Johnston, and Kristen Jones all had in common. 'I started collecting dolls when my mom and dad went on a trip and brought me one back,' Kristen said. She earned money by saving her allowance, so she could buy more dolls. If you didn’t know that Bryce Overstreet was talking about crawdads when he said I caught one red one with a big purplish egg’ you would probably have thought he was talking about some rare disease. Two years of catching crawdads has made Bryce’s hobby a favorite activity, which added a little variety to the second grade class hobby list. HELP! Mrs. Reese copes with a group of her students while at the reading table. 2nd Grade 133 First Day . . . Heart Attack! The first day of school brought a surprise for the first graders. Ex- pecting their first year of staying all day long to be super hard, they were surprised to find their work consisted of learning the different colors, writing their name, and reading from books. It’s easy. If we do good on our papers, we get stickers put on our turkeys,' said Sarah Keefer. Each student had a turkey with his name on it. Each day a sticker would be added to their turkeys if they were quiet or got good grades. Milk breaks were an extra that everyone enjoyed. It gave them a break from their work and a nutritious snack until lunch,' said Mrs. McMurphy. Recess was a time for the students to burn up all their energy. With a new playground, the first graders had a different place to explore. Recess is fun because there isn't any work. Also I can run without getting into trouble.' Without realizing it, the first graders had survived through reading, writing, and running around.' ild KlLl COLOR MF.

Where Credit Students became accustomed to warm surroundings every day, but the support personnel rarely re- ceived credit where credit was due. In the early morning at the grade school the cooks are doing all they can to prepare a good meal for the day. After preparations, half of the food is wheeled over to Chamberlain to feed the rest of the hungry middle and high school students. 'With the help of all the new equipment, we can feed more kids in less time,” said Alice Was Due Bryant. Among all the odd jobs which the custodians are constantly being asked to do all at once by everyone depending on them, it is amazing how they keep the school operating. But their hardest job said Cari Burrows and Bruce Lowder jokingly, was Having to get up so early to prepare the school for another day, and just simply putting up with each other.” Without them, the building would be cold on those below- freezing mornings. And many students would be half frozen already if they had to walk miles instead of jumping on a warm bus and being driven safely and com- fortably to school. A day without the secretaries would make it an almost impossi- ble task to run a school and keep much of the inside work organiz- ed. Sometimes I feel almost like a mother when taking messages for all the kids, said Janice Harder. Administration 141 I DID IT' kaylene Young, with diploma in hand, doesn't know whether to laugh or cry A little of both was shared between the fellow graduates as they completed their comment ement exercises Hard to Hide They say a picture is worth a thousand words; and they're right. Whether it was the taste test in psychology, eating the first cooked meal in home-ec, or the thought of gradua- tion. students found their feelings hard to hide. The children who laughed at the clowns at the Fine Arts Festival and the clowns themselves projected a good feeling. Yet there were times during FHA initiation when embarrassment became overwhelming, like the day Jodi Ward and Amy Wells were required to play patty cake in the corridor at lunch. Not only was there the determined look of Rita Sandefur as she ate her pie in the Sadie Hawkins eating contest, but the stunned look on her brother Allen s face as he watched his little sister down the pie. Those relieved looks of David Heer. Kevin Young, and Frankie Wanker as they found rides to football prac- tice were enough to make you glad you helped out. At one time or another each and every student found a moment when they were at a loss for words, yet they told it all in this special way. 142 Expressions LET'S DANCE' Trina McDonald tries to convince the other clowns to perform to the music of the German Band at the Fine Arts Festival DETERMINATION Weightlifter. |erry Hobbs, keeps a stern fate as he warms up for competition EXHAUSTION Susan Helton needs some shut eye after running her leg of the mile relay at the Fairview Invitational Track Meet NUMBER ONE' Teammates Eddie Winn, Brian Meister.

Loud print shirts, floral ties, and painted faces, however, were a little out of place or unusual for a basketball game. Composed mostly of high school hoys, “Hawaiian Punch performed cheers, skits and half-time entertainment for both fans and opponents. “We felt a little foolish at first, but then no one seemed to mind, in fact, they liked us,” said Eddy England. As basketball season came to a close, those colorful fans slowly faded away. The shirts and ties were hung in closets for a spring nap. An occasional print shirt seen walking down the hall was a small reminder that they would return. L.V.’s Views The library is a place for research, study, and silence. Hut don't hesitate to ask questions or request help. The aids are there to help you. The candy bowl is open to any who enter, but take only your share.

Charlie Owens 144 The Traveler First Edition Moving on . . . and Moving Up Creative Minds At Work The mind of a child is an interesting thing. The mind of a teenager, well, don’t be too surprised at what one might find. Out from behind their desks they emerge as someone else. Whether it was Creative Chaucer or a “live” book report, students added fun to their work. “I’m not going to do it,” said John Gosney on his way to lunch, “it’s crazy!” Crazy or not he enlightened the mood of the class as he portrayed the character of a hunter in an English II hook report. One by one each student gave their version of the book they read. Drama and speech brought out the “man” in Justin Clow during the Fine Arts melodrama as he saved the cast from the villainous H.W. Way. Who would have thought pac-man would visit Fiarview. The sophomore homecoming billboard made students think twice about the possibility, as pac-man claimed a victory for the Jackets as well as the Sophomores. Creativity with their work was truly unending and original. Things Like That Don’t Happen . . . ... in Fairview. Where? That’s right, Fairview. We read about crime, crashes and accidents in other places. But on Oc- tober 22 Fairview became one of those places, when an oil field truck collided with a truck carrying pro- pane. The northern part of Fairview was evacuated until the propane could be drained from the truck. Once again Fairview made the news when a small plane crashed in an open field just northeast of town. “Things like that don’t happen here,” . . . but they did. Thi hmall engined plane was left a crumpled mess after crashing in a field northeast of Fairview. Did you Know That . . . The last homecoming football game that was won was in 1 980, until this year.

Bill Hasty) From the Cabbage Patch Many landed by plane. Their invasion swept across the U.S. and into the hearts of both young and old. These chinless, cuddly, life like creatures were responsible for mobs, fighting and charity auctions. The Cabbage Patch Kids took over. From the mind of Xavier Roberts, they came equipped with adoption papers, birth certificates, and unusual names. No two were alike. Costing from 29.88 on up, the Cabbage Patch Kids became human. Gradeschool brought them to show and tell though “dolls” were not allowed. It was a contest just getting one. Whether it was Christmas, a birthday or no occasion at all. Cabbage Patch Kids were on top of the list. The Traveler 145 AIASA - 36 Academics Division —32. 32 Adamson. Marni — 78. 112 Administrations — 140 AUG. KELLY - H.S Chorus.

The year was almost over. Seniors on the outside counted down the day, but on the inside they were scared of what was happening. Teachers were proud of their successes in the classrooms as they remi- nisced on class experiences. Coaches looked back with good memories of winning the homecoming game, going to state, and setting track records. Whether they won or lost, they had accepted the challenge put before them, and they knew they had done their best. This feeling made par- ticipating in school life a privilege, and moving up an ac- complished goal. ... we accepted the challenges and found ourselves moving up. 152 Closing YEARS COLLECTION.
