Everyone is still in the mood to live it up. So we all bring back a little of our summer energy to school with us. This is a great time to enjoy the warm weather while doing homework, talking with friends, or just horsing around. While some students hit the books and start projects right away, there are others who need a little push to get started on the right foot. indlay High School is n ot only a place of principals, teachers, tests, and homeworlt. it is also a place of friends, people who care about your future, and a lot of great times! The years fly by and in a short time we make the change from nervous sophomores to the big, bad seniors, it takes the sophomores, juniors, and seniors working as a team to make FHS the best it can be. The 1984-85 school year was no different and the results could not have been better! From athletics to drama, and from vocational pursuits to academic studies, our school offers students a wide variety of opportunities. On the opposite page, Rhonda Ibarra and Lisa Benjamin study on the front lawn, R ck Hoffman and M ke Hrencecin play with a yo-yo at lunch time, and Gina Strahm drops back to pass during the powder puff football game. Above, Tina Osborn makes up a test In the hallway, Roy Edmister works on a welding project and Susan Buis hams It up in the drama club's Snoopy production. Opening 3 II work and no play can make us all unhappy and bored. That is why Findlay High has a variety of activities that interest almost everyone. Everything from sports to debate, FHS has thought of it all. Not only are these activities fun and challenging, but they all teach students important aspects of life: leadership, good sportsmanship, discipline. These activities give students something to do at school besides studying, and also help them prepare for the future and meet new friends. Working together to complete a variety of pro- jects, we make new friends and gain self- confidence. On the opposite page, Lorl Howard works the camera for Trojan T.V. at a football game, Krista Crates plays the role of a football player during a pep assembly skit, Stephanie Bacho and Meredith Weisman show their spirit during the Homecoming parade, and, Dave Moneer relaxes in the glass hall on Blue and Gold day. Above, Paul Hartley works in the print shop, Lynn Recktenwald waits for the bell to ring, and, Emily Zahler, Steve Elderbrock and Lane Montz give Mrs. Barb Gebhardt a little drama club style grief. Participation 1 here are many rewards that go with being a member of an organization. Being on a sports team allows one to compete in different cities. The band, choir, and debate teams go to competitions and are rewarded with honors, ribbons, and trophies. Being involved in a group also raises a person's self-confidence. Just sticking with a group makes students feel good about themselves. Finding a group with interests similar to one's own will also allow students to make new friends. Opening 5 Friendship _ ood friends are not hard to find here. Almost everyone is easy-going, friendly, and out to have a great time. Best friends can be easily spotted here — they dress alike during Spirit Week, take the same courses, and unfortunately like the same person! The best way to meet new people is to participate in an extracurricular activity. Many groups are happy to have new members which often leads to new friendships. And for those shy people, joining a group can get one closer to the opposite sex. 6 Opening riendships are both gained and lost during the three years at FHS. Coming in as sophonnores, we hung around with kids from our own junior high. But as the years pass, everyone gets to l(now each other and new circles of friends are made. So as seniors, the hardest part of graduating is losing touch with the people we have known for at least three years — the people who listened to our problems, the ones with whom we shared our greatest memories, and the ones who cried and laughed with us, stayed by our side through the good times and helped us through the bad. Our school provides an atmosphere which en- courages involvement. Above, Nicole Clapper studies on the front steps after school, several students enjoy the shade in the courtyard dur- ing a lunch period, and, Dottie Thompson and Jodie Heaston complete a research project in the library. On the opposite page, Pam Vining takes a nap on her typewriter, Tom Wallace checks a ream of paper, and, a rainbow stretch- es above Donnell Stadium during a boys soccer game. 'chool spirit was ever present this year. Many students participated in Spirit Week, attended the bonfires, and were enthusiastic at the pep rallies. Students joined groups to cheer on teams in certain sports like hockey and swimming. The cheerleaders led the crowd at the football and basketball games to get the teams up for the games and to build their confidence. The pep band was present at most of the basketball games and played their hearts out to show their spirit. These are only some of the groups which are formed to show spirit. But by cheering, we can also get involved to show our own individual spirit. We seem to find fun in just about everything we do, especially when we're free to express ourselves. Above, Jill Clemans enjoys her saloon-girl role on the junior Homecoming float and Mike Bowden, Brent Salisbury, Wade Fry and Sean Lafferty join their jack-o-lantern for a family portrait. On the opposite page. Jay Wagner and Amy Smith take a break from the Homecoming dance, Karmen VanDenberg displays her musical talent, Beth Herring and Steve Roth work behind the scenes during a dance production, and, Jim Kramp strides toward the finish line in a cross country race. •Vv-v ur students showed their spirit in many ways. We have aslted for our own section in which to cheer on the , basketball team, and we purchased dozens of Terrible Trojan towels to show our teams that we were behind them 100 percent. The school was decorated with blue and gold streamers and signs every game day. Lockers were also decorated for the players who appreciated the recognition they well deserved. Our education, activities, friendships and spirit has helped us grow a little more each year. Findlay High School has been a stepping stone to prepare us for our lives ahead. Opening 9 U VE Even though the number one priority at school is to further one's education, having fun runs a very close second. At FHS activities range from dress-up days to dances, from Homecoming to Halloween and from the prom to graduation, all of which are geared to bring the students pleasure and amusement. Dances themselves inspire changes in dress depending on the occasion. Blue jeans and button downs are the style at less formal dances while three piece suits and long dresses signify the formality of a dance such as Homecoming or the prom. Regardless of what apparel is worn, students use dances for a chance to socialize and show off the latest dance steps, not to mention the chance to be with that someone special. To close out the school year the annual junior- senior prom and graduation are held as a remin der of a hard year's work. The prom serves as a sort of last hurrah for seniors and at the same time gives the underclassmen something to look forward to. It is also a portrait of beauty as everyone looks their best while they dance and romance the night away. The end of a long road comes to reality for seniors at graduation. The day seems split between joy and sorrow, a day in which anticipation and wandering futures go hand in hand. No matter what paths are chosen by this year's grads or those in the future, the fun found in high school activities will never be forgotten. Yvonne Frederick models her attire on punk day, Lara Frantz jokes with her pumpkin friends, and, Michelle Stalets and Jill Fruth ride the peace float in the Homecoming parade. An Autumn Festival The Homecom- ing celebration actually started on Monday with the beginning of Spirit Week. These traditional days are char- acterized by the whole school basking in Trojan pride and spirit. Sunglasses day, Hawaiian day, Sweats day. Hat day, and Blue and Gold day en- couraged loyal participation as students got fired up for the game and prepared for the big dance. Everywhere one looked some reminder it was Homecoming Week could be seen. 12 Homecoming Members of the Homecoming court pictured on the opposite page are, from the left, Chad McClellan, Sam Dunn, Doug Sprouse, Larry Helms, Chris Weaver, and, KarlsAsel, Debbie Campbell, Jenny McGuire, Heather Greeno, and Lynn Shamp. A scene from the drill team's extravagant halftlme show, the pregame enthusiasm of the football team and the court after the coronation were all highlights of the evening's festivities. Active in football and track, King Doug Sprouse spent much of his free time during his high school years lifting weights in preparation for his athletic competition. Math-related courses were among his favorites. A member of the gymnastics team and the stu- dent council, Queen Karis Asel also participated in band, choir and drama club. Biology courses were among those she enjoyed the most. Homecoming 13 The Event The awesome Trojan football team left little doubt as to who won the Home- coming game. Not to anybody's surprise, the Tro- jans blew out the Lorain Steelmen 25-0. The band along with the drill team and ma- jorettes provided a dazzling halftime show. The coronation climaxed the ac- tivities of Spirit Week and set the tone for the even- ing's festivities, which were en- joyed by stu- dents, parents and the comumni- ty alike. starting above and moving counter clockwise across both pages, Lisa Holmes and Ed Snajdr enjoy a ride on the Newspaper Yearbook float; Tim Lauth, Steve Elderbrock, Nicole Clapper, and Lynn Recktenwald display their dancing talent; Darren Lepper, Steve Campbell, and Dave Schultz take a break between songs at the dance; majorette Leigh Spaeth performs during the halftime celebration; David Man ley and Elaine Spacher get together for a slow dance; and, Mindy Goldner does her part by painting a school hallway for Spirit Week. 14 Homecoming Celebration The theme for the week was The Way We Were. School halls and downtown win- dows were decorated em- phasizing the theme. The tradi- tional float con- test between the three class coun- cils was once again won by the seniors' float. The senior class coun- cil also won top prizes for decorating the Main Street win- dows and the school hallways. However, every- body did a good job. The col- orfully decorated halls added a lot to the overall school spirit. The music at the dance was provid- ed by the Solar Productions sound system. A lighthearted and relaxed at- mosphere made for a memorable night. Homecoming 15 i r «k • .

High Society, a popular Toledo band, was hired by student council for an in- formal party-type dance. Nearly 300 students attended the performance which included songs by Huey Lewis and The News, The Cars, The Scorpions, and many more. The band also did a few of their own numbers. The event lasted approximately three hours and included three sets. After their performance, the band assembled for autographs and t-shirts with the band's logo were on sale. Full of enthusiasm, the audience cheered and screamed as their starting above and moving counter ciockwise, Chris Younger demonstrates his dancing ability, the enthusiastic crowd cheers for more of High Society, and, the group performs another song. favorite songs were belted out amazing precision. with 16 High Society Dance students and music This year the student body was moved by the sounds of Ecstacy at both the Heat Is On dance and the Morp Marine. The four-member band consists of Findlay students Hugh Hession, Kurt Hattendorf, Steve Kraus, and Greg Kraus. The group plays top 40 and popular songs and learns all of their music by ear. When playing for students, the group was more relaxed seeing familiar faces in the audience. Ecstacy has been together for over a year and is not organized by any specific member. As stated by Hatten- dorf, It's a four-man band, not a one- man band. The Heat is On was sponsored by student council and VICA. Morp Marine was sponsored by the sophmore class council as students were given the illu- sion of dancing under water. Starting below and moving clockwise, Ecstacy plays at the Morp Marine, Kurt Hattendorf smiles as he plays his guitar, David Grammens and Ami Parekh enjoy the dance, and, Hugh Hession sings to the crowd. Dances 17 Activities FHS had many activities this year, ranging from the Potter's Olympics to the annual college day. Six schools par- ticipated in this year's Potter's Olympics. Lima Shawnee was the overall winner and Findlay came in a close second. There were many banquets during this year which included: the academic ex- cellence banquet, athletics ban- quets, and the honors banquet. One of the ways in which the students showed their spirit was by participating in a football tunnel before the final game of the season. Starting above and moving clocliwise across both pages, Ruth Mahler and John Breitigam receive the Principal's Award from Mr. Robert Shamp, Todd Ward puts on the finishing touches on his Potter's Olympics pot, Lane Montz finds a little discomfort in giving blood, Janet Guthrie signs autographs after an assembly, Brenda Martin fills out a college reply card, and, balloons are released as the football team runs through a student tunnel. 18 Activities students join in In October, many colleges came to FHS to participate in the annual college day. Students could gather much infor- mation about various colleges. Students and faculty actively participated in the Red Cross Blood Drive twice during the school year. Janet Gutherie presented an assembly during the school year about safe driving. Whether organ- ized ahead of time or a spur of the moment activity, FHS students par- ticipated 100%. Activities 19 Enchanting evening It's Magic was the theme chosen for the 1984-85 junior- senior prom. Findlay College was the site, where the theme was divided into four sub-themes, illusion, reflec- tions, enchant- m e n t , and mystery. Many long hours were spent by the junior class decorating for the magical evening. Couples came dressed in for- mals and most went to dinner beforehand. Afterwards, some couples moved on to a post-prom movie which was provided by the high school, and others went to private parties. It's magic This prom was first in many better illustrate their class. This was proven true by a group of seniors who showed up to this formal affair in togas. Besides graduation, this was the last high school event for the seniors, and it ■4 : 'm respects. The theme song it's Magic, by The Cars is quite fast and not an aver- age prom theme. An up-beat theme, rather than the average slow song was re- quested by many seniors because they felt it would certainly was a magical evening! Starting above and moving counterclockwise across both pages, Jim Shafer, Kristie Bozell, Tom Wiggins and his date find it hard to choose a treat, Jamie Arras and Dave Fulton rel ax for a moment, couples enjoy dancing to the music of High Society, Todd Wachter and Pete Sctiumacher show off their ideas of formal at- tire. Keliey Smitti whispers into Chris Weaver's ear as they dance in the courtyard, and, Steve Roth and Debbie Corbin sway to a slow song. More than dancing Pastries, fruit, punch, and otiner foods were avail- able in almost every room, espe- cially the lounge, w hich had reflec- tions as it's sub- theme and the mysterious cave. Also, in the lounge were giant uni- corn ice sculp- tures. The food was provided by a na- tionally known company called Saga which was made available to us through Find- lay College. As an addition to the food, the rooms provided a place to sit and relax while socializing with friends. The lights were set low, and there were flowers on every table to heighten the ro- mantic auora. Starting above and moving clockwise across both pages, Michelle Hampshire, Matt Kerr, Jackie Fuller and her date, Stu Jordan and Judy Hall relax in the lounge, Jaci Martin and Dan Miller enjoy each other's company in the court- yard, students dance under a paper castle and streamers, Chris Younger and his date share a laugh at the punch bowl, Sarah Dilgard and Eric Kern spend a quiet moment together, and, Dar- ren Lepper and Jenny Andrews dance together. J Romantic Illusions The dancing area, with the sub-theme illu- sion, was deco- rated in pastel colors. A floating castle, hung from the ceiling which illustrated the theme beautifully. Couples danced to the music of High Society. Afterwards, they were free to take walks through the en- chanting court- yard which was decorated with lit- tle white lights. Others spent time strolling around outside or just relaxing and en- joying the roman- tic moonlight. Prom 23 Skies clear It was an overcast day for the 1 13th Baccalaureate Commencement cere- mony held outdoors at Donnell Stadium. The date, June 2, marked the final day that the spirited class of 1985 would be together. Although it began to rain lightly as the nearly 500 graduates marched before the large crowd of parents, family and friends, it soon stopped, minutes before the Rev. Franklin Kehres stepped to the podium to deliver the invocation. Starting at the right and moving clockwise, students wait to be called to the platform, Mr. John Celebrezze leads the processional, and, the graduates sing the Findlay High alma mater. Below, left to right. Chuck Busch, Steve Elder- brock, Mark Stout, Jaci Martin, and Ed Snadjr speak at graduation. 24 Graduation •i Life's been ?igood After Rev. Kehres presented the in- vocation, Dr. C. W. Manuel introduced the class speakers. Senior class presi- dent Chuck Busch headed the group followed by Steve Elderbrock, Mark Stout, Jaci Martin and Ed Snajdr. Each speaker was chosen by a panel of teachers. The speeches followed the theme, Life's Been Good which had been selected by the senior class. Musical selections were provided by the high school choir. Dr. Darrell Prichard gave the message, an uplift- ing sermon about mountain climbing, or, attaining goals and never giving up. Graduation 25 Tears and tassels The awarding of diplomas was an emotional event. Cameras flashed and cheers were heard as the graduates walked to the stage to receive their diplomas. As they switched their tassels to the other sides of their caps smiles grew on their faces. After the ceremony parents and friends crowded around on the field to snap pic- tures and offer congratulations. For many, it would be the last time they would share laughs, smiles and tears together. 26 Graduation Stepping out When it was all over, for many, parties and relatives awaited the graduates. When they return- ed home there were more pic- tures and con- gratulations. By nightfall, exhaus- tion set in. But a second wind came upon every- one as the graduates began attending another round of parties. But, what fol- lows g raduation? For most it is a new beginning. Life's been good, but, it will be bet- ter in the future as the class of 1985 steps out in- to the world. starting above and moving counterclockwise, the brass quartet and choir perform, Joy Woolley receivs her diploma from the school board president, James Fitzpatrick, Lane Montz and Cheryl Peiffer exchange pre-graduation congratulations, Andrea Goetz helps Missy Ellcessor with her graduation cap before the ceremony, Mike Metzker receives his diploma from school board member. Dr. Mike Lin- damood, and Pam Walters walks around the track during the processional. Graduation 27 Whatever your specialty, there's bound to be a group at FHS that was formed to unite all the people with that specialty. Believe it or not, there's more to do at Findlay High than just studying, taking tests, and gazing out the window. The activities are out there, available for any student willing to be a serious member. These organizations, such as DEC A, Drama Club, band, etc. were formed so students could show off and build their talents and leadership qualities. Belonging to groups such as these gives you a sense of pride because you are a part of an organization that not everyone can say they belong to. Let's face it. Without these activities school would become boring and uneventful. So get involved; it's a part of student life. On the opposite page Tom Hoppe and Larry Zent, dressed in their blue and gold garb, share a morning newspaper, Jim Kramp, Stan Mizerny and David Stiles talk after lunch, and, Tim Case has a little geometry with lunch. Starting below and moving clockwise, Toni Keller perfects her clay sculpture, Traci Weist paints, Sean Lafferty weaves a basket, and, Todd Ward concentrates on his project. Art makes life full and enjoyable Mr. Bruce Patterson feels that involvement in the arts either as an active pro- ducing artist or as an in- terested active observer can make life full and enjoyable. You'll never have to say you're bored again! The art classrooms pro- vide an atmosphere that is less formal than the stan- dard classrooms so students feel relaxed working one on one. Students who take art learn to be more observant of their surroundings and to 4 S . ' ' • I.'IUPPPPP Business dept. offers variety of courses A variety of business courses are offered for college bound and non-college bound students. For those involved in the college preparatory program, Typing I continued to be very popular among the sophomores and juniors. The vocational business classes, which operate during a five period block, teach students job oriented skills and give them the opportunity to exercise those skills in office situations. A new business group, BEST (Business Education Students Together), was formed this year. Every six weeks they plan a social event, such as a pizza party or skating party, to reward those students who spend five periods a day in a vocational business class. Starting left and moving counterclockwise, Emilio Soli enjoys typing class, and, Anjie Fox practices her shorthand. B.E.S.T., front, Carolyn Zehender. Lisa Chatelain: back, from the left, Debi Alba.

Business 31 Computers basic to ACS classes Accounting Computer Specialist (ACS) is designed for junior and senior students who are interested In the accounting and com- puter fields. This five period lab Includes such programs that em- phasize Accounting I and II, information processing, Typing I and II, automated accounting, and, basic programming on the microcomputer. In the junior year Business English emphasizes fundamentals of grammar, vocabulary, oral communications and letter writing. In the senior year, it concentrates primarily on human relations. All students have access to their own Apple computer. ACS prepares each student with valuable skills for the work world; they also have one social event each six weeks. This may in- clude a pizza party, skating, bowling, or a picnic and takes place during school time.

They learn basic business skills for five periods a day. These in- clude typing, shorthand and bookkeeping. The class prepares the students for more advanced vocational business classes in such areas as efficient work habits, proper manners and good attendance. Each student's personal goals and the teacher's motivation provide a positive atmosphere in which learning can take place. This year the Clerical Services program participated in a Type-a-thon during Vocational Education Week with the BEST Club.

Clerical Services 33 COE pupils get job experience Anyone who has been in the lower east halls is struck by an unusual sense of hominess con- veyed by the memorabilia and pic- tures of the COE department's achievements. Cooperative Office Education exists as a team, a family of workers, a 15-member class of students learning office skills In a productive atmosphere. Together, under the direction of Mr. Richard Wohlgamuth, students polish their business and clerical skills by working part time in local office jobs. In addition to working part-time, they spend five periods of school time daily and are graded in cooperation by their employers and Mr. Wohlgamuth.

Office Specialist I and II are classes open to junior and senior students to help them, in a vocational at- mosphere, further their of- fice skills in preparation for jobs after high school. The classes meet four periods a day where students are taught aspects of business math and related English skills. New this year in the office specialist class is the addi- tion of computer word processing. Last year Mrs. Deanna Myers, Office Specialist I teacher, spent a period a day learning how to run a Radio Shack word processing program so that it could be taught this year as part of a refined curriculum. Miss Audrey Behne, the Office Specialist II teacher stated that Office Specialist II is the second year of a two-year program in which students refine and update their skills in preparation for a career in business.

Students gain work experience Providing job experience and teaching the fundamentals of business is what distributive education (DE) is all about. Half the day is spent in classes while the other half is devoted to a job in the community. Each student must work a minimum of fifteen hours per week. The school book store is run by DE students who also participate in DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America). Students that take DE are automatically in the club. DECA stresses leadership develop- ment, social intelligence, civic con- sciousness and vocational under- standing. These qualities are learned through electing officers, attending conferences, doing service projects and entering competitions. One impor- tant event is the employer dinner at the end of the year. In class about 20 different skills are taught. They include general marketing, sales demonstrations, finance, credit, and job interest.

One period during the day is spent working on capitalization, abbrevia- tions, punctuation, and word division — all of the things needed to be an ef- fective secretary. In the afternoon, an office atmosphere is evident. Various types of office equipment, such as electric typewriters and calculators, word processors and micro-computers are used. Students also spend time learning about interviews. Personnel depart- ment representatives from the com munity help with constructive criticisn on developed techniques.

Communications involves students with publications, like the Trojan Yearbook, the literary magazine. Arts Beat, and the school newspaper, thie Blue Gold, in addition to English, French, Spanish, Latin and German classes. Drama Club members perform one acts and plays during the school year and a musical in early spring. The speech and debate programs help students acquire and polish the skills necessary for convincing oral communication. Obviously, communications is a big part of student life here! Starting below and moving clockwise, Jill Fisher, Betfi Herring and Maureen McAdoo discuss their class presentation. Dean Spence ponders what to do next while setting up TTV equipment, Jill Fruth orders an unwilling Mike Ellis out of the Blue Gold office, Susan Buis, Tony Robb, Lisa Turnbell, Lori Scaife, Ron Maurer, and Nicole Clapper pay close attention to a presentation in their speech class and lnne Moore discusses an ad with one of the Blue Gold patrons. Communications 39 TTV tapes variety of events Trojan Television has been taping all home football and basketball games and all music concerts since 1979. Advised by Mrs. Barb Gebhardt, the group of around fifteen is mainly run by director and producer, Daphne Zaras. Some may ask, Do I have to have any experience? The answer is no; anyone can join and members are trained throughout the year. All shows are broadcast on Con- tinental Cablevision without cost. This year TTV even broadcast a few hockey and baseball games, all choir, band, or- chestra concerts, and most of the drama productions. TTV has not always been popular with the student body but that is changing. According to Daphne, I've had many comments from students and also residents of Findlay on how improved our productions are over those of previous years. starting at the right and moving counterclocl wise, Robin Renz and Todd Harrell give the play-by-play description of a basketball game, and.

Coming out 13 times during the year, the Blue Gold was eager- ly awaited by students and faculty alike. The editorials, features, profiles, news and sports stories kept everyone aware of the latest happenings in the school. Advisor Mr. Stephen Froelich commented that, this year's group was fairly serious, quite responsible, definitely vocal, and emphatically fun loving. He felt that everyone was enjoyable to work with. Although it sometimes got hectic and shouts of anger or cries of frustration came from behind the Blue Gold's frequently chaotic office, sighs of relief rang after the paper was finally out into the hands of the students. This year's staff, beyond any reason of a doubt, was in- teresting, stated editor-in-chief, Evelyn Lucas. When asked about her job, she said jokingly, The paper was my responsibility, and according to my fellow staff members, I didn't have to do any work. But don't believe it! Starting above and moving clockwise, Evelyn Lucas, Lori Petry, and Jill Fruth demonstrate the Blue Gold's enthusiasm at Homecoming, Michelle Kramer contemplates her layout, and, Bernie Moore types her column. 42 Blue Gold Newspaper Capturing the memories A very trying experience, as always, 16 yearbook staff again met the hallenges of deadlines and of jlerating one another, states advisor Ir. T.R. Gratz. The process begins in the summer as ie editors attend a graphic arts jminar at Kenyon College. It is here lat management skills are attained hile new and interesting yearbook esigns are presented. Each student was required to create her own yearbook which consisted of cover, division, portrait, and advertise- ment sections. Overall, Findlay won an award for best design and for best in- dividual designs with Emily Blide plac- ing first and Niki Kelly second. During the school year the staff, headed by five juniors and four seniors, divide into groups according to their talents and interests and begin work on certain sections of the book. Every student works during his or her study hall so much of the book is done during school hours. Every fall each member of the staff participates in an ad sales day which provides the financial backing needed for the year. All students work together to create an everlasting final product.

Thespians 45 students take over directing chores The theme of this year's one acts was Way off Broad- way and consisted of four comedies and two dramas. The one acts are directed by students enrolled in the directing classes. They provide experience in directing while combin- ing all previous acting knowledge into a production of their own. According to the students, acting under the direction of their peers can be advantageous. Tami Rakestraw, from The Babysitter, states that, it's fun to work with someone your own age because it's easier to communicate with them and understand their point of view. Garth Brown says working with people your own age can be hectic; but David Stiles feels that student directors add a special touch to the one acts. The directors' view of working with peers is similar. Jaci Martin, director of Whodunit, feels that being a director is a lot of hard work but it's a lot of fun when you have a good cast like I did. You have to let the cast know who's the direc- tor but when the curtain opens I know the hard work is all paid for. 46 One Acts Starting at the left and moving counterclocl(wise across both pages Is the cast of The Bald Soprano: Ron Maurer, Jennifer Rustic, Steve Roth, Emily Zahler, and Shelly Nlohr; Mike Danke, Carrie Volkmer, and Nicole Clapper show their con- tempt for each other In the play, The Prisoner of Second Avenue; Jill Fisher prepares to stab the unknowing Garth Brown In the play, Whodunit?; similarly, Susan Buis threatens to kill an unsuspecting soul; Tim Montgomery and Beth Herring cuddle in the one-act.

Five orchestra members participated in the Ohio Music Education Association's 35th Annual Northwest Ohio Region Orchestra. This event, which included Roger Collmgwood, James Gossard, Sarah Dilgard, Jody Wasbro, and Sally Lodico, is held each year at a different Ohio high school. The orchestra was composed of 80 members. Some members also par- ticipated in the operatic orchestra of the Drama Club's production of Guys and Dolls. This year, the orchestra was fortunate to be one of the few specially selected high school orchestras to be video-taped to compare sight reading ability, rehearsal technique, and performance. This program was through Bowling Green State University's College of Musical Arts. The orchestra ended it's season with a student body concert, April 30, and a final spring concert. May 21 . Director Hanson summed up the season as interesting.

They begin practicing In the summer with approximately five weeMy practices Pictured at the top, Dawn Beck shows a big smile while moving to her position, and, below, Leigh Spaeth holds her chin up and looks tough during the national anthem. 74 Majorettes lasting three hours each. Then, both groups attend a camp that specializes in their specific areas of performance. Later in the summer they all attend a flag and rifle camp for two weeks. Once school starts, they practice everyday ninth period and after school until 3:30 pm. After all these practices, they perform dur- ing the summer In parades and small competi- tions. During the football season they perform with the marching band as flag corps and majorettes. While basketball Is in season, both groups perform either dance or special baton routines during halftime. They also prepare for the Buckeye Drill Team Competition held in Zanesvllle. Here, they dance, use props, flags, rifles, and up to three batons. This year the majorettes claimed their fifth National title in high school majorette lines. The drill team placed first In Its elg minute show at the Zanesville Drill Tea Spectacular and claimed the State chat plonship title. In addition to practices, performance and competitions, they also do spec things for the community such as perfori Ing at the annual wheelchair basketb game. They also conduct many fund raise to help purchase equipment, uniforms ai to help cover traveling expenses. This year they purchased sweats ai new outfits for the competitions. Being on the teams may seem like breeze, but actually It's a lot of work ai dedication. _ MAJORETTES, pictured below, front, She Haggerty: middle, Dawn Beck; back, T England, Susan Fitzpatrick, Leigh Spaeth.

Smith, was formerly a choir music director at Kenton High School and was new to the relatively enormous size of Findlay High School. He was soon to bridge this gap and set right into making many changes in the vocal music department. One of the first changes was that of changing the names of the two choirs. Once the sophomore and jun- ior senior choirs, the names were newly changed to the concert and symphonic choirs, respectively. Also, Mr. Smith brought with him the concept of a show choir. The first time this had ever been tried here, the group was appropriately titled The First Edition. Throughout the year, this group performed for many area organizations, earning funds for the Music department. The group was organized under the strict scrutiny of Mr. Smith, and performed excellently in the area of vocal skills, and even went to district contest and scored a one in the area of group vocals. Meanwhile, the two choirs were to achieve ones at district contest, and for the first time in a long time, they were to go to compete on a state level. At state contest, the two groups both attained excellent ratings and com- ments from the judges. In addition, the musical Guys and Dolls was performed to sell-out au- diences, again under the hands of the new music director, James D. Smith, along with the assistance of Mrs. Barb Gebhardt and Mrs. Barb Hennings. SYMPHONIC CHOIR, front, from the left, Dani McKee.

Show choir has exciting year The first weekend in May the First Edition Show Choir performed in Washington D.C. for Congressman Mike Ox- ley on the steps of the Capitol and at the Chinese Embassy. While the weekend trip was an exciting one, it was also exhausting. Two twelve hour bus trips and setting up and tearing down the equipment before and after the perfor- mances proved to be the most taxing for the students. Highlights included seeing a performance of Fiddler On The Roof and a dance cruise on the Potomac River. Senior Karen Pahl said the whole trip was really fun because we did so many different things.

A working experience O.E., occupational education, is a program that combines academics with jobs. Approximately 40 students participate in the pro- gram which consists of a half day in class and the other half at work. The students are taken by bus to McKinley elementary school where they obtain on-the-job experience in areas such as food service, building maintenance, auto maintenance and community home nursing. Mr. Robert Allen an O.E. teacher, feels the O.E. program gives students a well-rounded education. Students are taken on field trips to such places as courtrooms and school board meetings. Mr. Allen adds, The O.E. program gives students a chance to have work relationships with the help of a work-study coordinator and also prepares them to meet adult responsibiliteis when they graduate. The O.E. officers pictured, from the left, in the middle of the page are Wendy Fairbanks, Allie Van Warmer, Jeannette Pina, and, Serena Tate. Preparing for a job This year 90 students were involved in either OWE, (Occupational Work Ex- perience), or OWA (Occupational Work Adjustment). What is the difference between these two? OWA is job exploration, on- ly two credits, and is for students under sixteen. OWE is job experience, five and a half credits, and for students sixteen and over. OWA students spend half their day at school and the other half on the job. OWE students also spend half a day in school and half day at work. They also take part in V.I.C.A. activities and many community projects. Officers of the OWA OWE classes are pictured here, starting above, and moving clockwise down the page.

Physical education: many components The physical education department is many different classes all put together. They offer instruction in many different leisure and competitive sports such as archery, bowling, gymnastics, badmin- ton, Softball, and volleyball. About twenty students supervise the locker rooms during the physical education classes. They also distribute and collect locks, put equipment away, and help students with locker assignments. These physical education helpers are advised by Mr. Gary Bedlion. Health classes are also an important part of the physical educa- tion program. The semester course is taught by Mr. Roger Renz, Mr. Bill Baron, and Mr. Dan Evans. It is a required class before graduation.

We're a great depart- ment, says Mr. James Steele, chairman of the science department. Our excellent staff enables us to specialize which results in a better product. The specialized staff teach only one subject, allowing each to concen- trate on his or her certain area which include biology, chemistry, physics, earth and its resources, and modified life science. Steele feels this method of teaching is a good founda- tion for better education. Also, students are able to better their education in science due to well- equipped facilities.

I Social studies is only a generic term to describe a variety of distinct disciplines, states Mr. Dan Matheny, an American history teacher. He feels social studies is one of the few areas in the school in which a student can engage in the study of liberal arts. As a humanities it provides for a broad spectrum of needs and interests while allowing for an inter- disciplinary link between itself and the language arts. The social studies staff are competent in the fields they teach and are devoted to ex- cellence. The courses, like the teachers, have re- mained, for the most part, unchanged for the past ten years. But this year the social studies courses underwent a curriculum revision, meaning this was the last year for certain courses to be offered. Overall, Matheny says the course selection is the best I've seen. Social studies 83 T l students get valuable training students involved in the trades and industry program spend two periods a day in class learning math and technology and four periods in lab or shop where skills are developed. Every year each department works on a special project. The auto shop worked on a 1928 Model A street rod while the carpentry class constructed a house. The welding class built a large trailer and in electronics students worked with robotics. For those taking machinery, two additional machines were added to the shop, one a computerized lathe and the other a precision milling machine with digital read-out. The trades and industry staff itself is well experienced; each teacher has at least seven years of full time trade work ex- perience. As for the students, those with good attendence and doing average or better work can be recommended by the in- structor for employment the second semester of their senior year. Starting right and moving clocltwise, Jim Kuhn builds a frame, Greg Garland and Mark Oman work on an engine, Junior Ibarra welds a piece of metal, and, Kurt Rewakowsky checks under the hood of a car. 84 Trades and Industry starting left and moving counterclockwise, Mike Myers turns down a stock on the lathe, Dave Gault cleans the lathe with emory paper, Shawn Gallagher and Scott Hilty install a swinging door at the carpentry house, Adrian Vaz- quez works in the O.W.E. lab, and, Roy Edmister, Junior Ibarra and Dan Scarberry set up a trailer hitch project. A unique experience A day spent In the trades and industry wing is somewhat dif- ferent than in the academic wing. Roy Edmister, a senior, has spent two years In the voca- tional program and also has taken some classes In the college preparatory program. He describes that the dif- ferences In each atmosphere begins with peer-teacher rela- tionships. He said since more time Is spent together In the T and I wing, it gives the students more reason to try harder because the teacher and stu- dent can gain a friendship as well as a learning relationship which Is unlike the academics because of so many students in the classes. He says the T and I students are almost like one big family. There Is more to T and I than just being down there nine periods a day. Each student must take a certain number of classes before his or her graduation date. After two years in the voca- tional program, they may apply for a co-op where they can take the material they have learned and use It In the business world as a job or possible career.

According to Mr. Ramon Myers, the VICA advisor, VICA gets students involved in making decisions dealing with an organization. It also brings out skills in otherwise non-outgoing students. Myers also states that VICA encourages all members to take part in ac- tivities and to accept and handle the responsibility for them. Not only does VICA instill confidence and leadership qualities in its members, Myers feels it leaves a favorable taste in their mouth about school.

Skill Olympics is one of many events The VICA officers are elected by the VICA members. Their job is to develop a program that they and the other members want. Some of the events sponsored this year were the queen contest, northwest region officer contest, a fruit sale, a dance, and the an- nual skill Olympics. Also this year a VICA breakfast was held and afterwards all VICA members participated in an athletic Olympics. Another part of VICA deals with public relations. Interested members compete in area contests. This year in the northwest region officer contest Annette Reynolds placed second in the Am- bassador group. The parliamentary team of Mark Stout. Ryan Gould, Dave Hannah, Amy Walker, Annette Reynolds, Jeff Freel- ing, Jeff Johnston and Jim Brooks placed second in the regional contest held at Delaware. Other students placing at regionals were Mark Berger, second in electronics; and Ben Kisseberth who placed first in carpentry and continued on to the State contest.

As a sophomore you probably didn't realize how many new people you would meet in the years to come, but it wasn't long before the little groups from the junior highs and county schools began to mix into one spirited F.H.S. family. The portrait sections in this yearbook are very special in that they show who the people are who made our school work. These pictures also remind us of all the different personalities here; the class clown, the brain, the partier . . . and it helps us all remember who made Findlay High special for us. Thoughts of the powder puff game occupy this student's mind, Anne Newton smiles for the Inter- State Studio photographer, and. Bill Kirkwood shows some zany behavior during lunch.

Gibson plans retirement Reading, boating, enjoying family life and working as sophomore prin- cipal are all activities that take up Mrs. Margaret Gibson's time. And those first three activities will be oc- cupying more of her time following her retirement this school year. During the fall of 1976, Mrs. Gib- son started working as a principal after 20 years as an English and social studies teacher. She said she has loved her job because no two days are alike. And she thinks the kids here are great. Mrs. Gibson feels the best thing that has happened to her is marry- ing her husband, Bill, and having a family. Mrs. Gibson has four children. Cindy who is 34, Marcia who is 32, and her sons Brian and Wade, ages 25 and 23. She and her husband own a cottage at Indian Lake and they plan to spend a lot of free time there after her retirement. Her only regret from her years at FHS is that she has had to be a police officer and disciplinarian, but she added, I think I am also a school coordinator; I put activities together. It has been said she stuck her neck out just so she could give the student body top quality assemblies. She also replied, I think this may be hard for some to understand but I consider myself a special friend to the students here. I try to always be available in their times of need. She says she will always have fond memories of all the good times she has had. Unfortunately it is sad this is her last year with us, but she promises to come back to visit just to keep in touch because she cares. Mrs. Gibson loved it here and will miss it. But surely we will miss her a great deal more. tf J 90 Faculty ole Drossel, Counselor; Robert Asel, Susan KIngsley, Secretary; Loretta Core, Secretary.

Findlay's own Papa Smurf One of the unusual things you may have heard this year in the halls is the name-calling directed towards our own Mr. Ramon Myers. Mr. Myers is also af- fectionately known as Papa Smurf and Mickey Mouse. Mr. Myers supervises the D.C.T. (Diversified Cooperative Training) Pro- gram which provides vocational train- ing for students in areas other than those offered through the school's vocational programs. He is also the V.I.C.A. advisor. V.I.C.A. is a club for Trades and Industry students. Some of the training the D.C.T. pro- gram offers includes dental lab, draft- ing, flower design and greenhouse work. Outside of teaching, Mr. Myers farms. He grows the usual crops: corn, wheat, beans, and he also raises hogs as his specialty. Jonathan Laube, Science Dan Matheny, Social Studies, Student Council, Class Advis !

Enjoys first year here James Smith has enjoyed his first year here as choir director. Mr. Smith taught at Kenton for 18 years. Looking for a change, he heard that Findlay had a posi- tion open for a new director after Mr. Fred Willford retired. Mr. Smith said, It was a real challenge since this was my first change in 18 years, but I found the teachers and students very helpful. I knew I could always ask them for help, whether it was a serious matter or something like 'Where's the restroom?' Presently, Mr. Smith is directing and choreographing the Findlay First Edition Show Choir. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors audition for the show choir.

A hardworking teacher Independence, understanding and caring are just a few things that make up Miss Audrey Behne. Her determina- tion and hard work show in everything she does. The most rewarding aspect of teaching according to Miss Behne is her students. She also enjoys having the independence of being her own boss in her own classroom. Aside from her career she enjoys needle point, swimming, golfing, and working in her backyard. If Miss Behne could give a word of advice it would be Try to get as much out of your studies as possible because when you begin working it's quite a dif- ferent ballgame. Enjoy your years at FHS because you'll never be able to go back to those years again. P l 1 ■ vv H 1 '- ' SW V ' k i mm wt v i Dan Evans, Physical Education, Jean fen more, PBX Operator.

Each one has a different job so they can have everything ready by 10:50 a.m. Their jobs consist of baking pies, cakes and cookies, preparing the salad bar, mak- ing donuts, and answering the phone to take orders of how many meals the elementary schools need. This doesn't really allow much time considering they have to make all the food from scratch ex- cept vegetables which they buy in big economy cans. Breakfast is the first assignment. Doughnuts, milk, and juice are available every morning for the students and faculty. Then, after the elementary schools have called in to report their lunch count, they begin to prepare the meals. Next, they ship the food to the elemen- tary schools as requested by their cafeteria workers. After the three high school lunch periods have been completed they begin clean-up. After washing all the dishes and pots and pans, they then count the money taken in from all the schools that day. The more profitable days are those when it is raining or if it is colder because more students eat school lunches. Marie Krantz Is our longest employed cafeteria worker. She says she enjoys cooking better than clean-up. But, above all, getting the job done is most important. No matter what happens the food is always finished. says Marie, in spite of some untimely interruptions. A fire drill is an example, but a better one was when the electricity went off. They had to use can- dles and flashlights so they could get the food out on time. After the day of a cafeteria worker ends, they get to go home between 2-2:30 p.m. Lola Corbin, pictured below, gets an early start preparing one of the day's lunches.

A large portion of our sports fanatics are loyal to one of these cities, and those loyal fans who have waited a countless number of years for the Lions, Pistons, Red Wings, Bengals, Cavs, Indians and Browns to win big, will just have to wait longer. The waiting, however, is over in Detroit. The Tigers, after roaring to a 35-5 start, won the World Series and picked up a few fans along the way. Most of our students were either in the crib or not yet born when the Tigers were last in the World Series in 1968. That makes it all the more pleasant for the true Tiger fans that stuck with the team during hard times. One such fan is Jayme Logsdon. Every spring I bet him that the Indians will finish ahead of the Tigers. I have yet to win. A true oddity at FHS is the one-city sports fan. Such is the case, however, with Bob Ohanian. Bob, who is from Detroit, states, When I started following Detroit teams, they weren't winners. I've grown up with each team and now that the Tigers and Pistons are winners, I'm glad I've stayed loyal. Even though the Lions and Red Wings suck the big toe, I'll always be a true fan. Cincinnati's sports history is much different than that of Detroit and Cleveland. The Reds have won two of four World Series appearances since 1970. The Bengals made it to the Super Bowl in 1982, before losing to the 49ers. Both teams, however, have fallen on hard times and true fans are harder to find. Rich Baerwaldt's loyalty has never swayed though. A Reds and Bengals fan since he started following sports, Rich also followed the Cincinnati Stingers hockey team before it went out of business. He states, Cincinnati is special to me because they were winners in the early years when I was a fan. Now that they aren't winners, I'm still loyal to them. Even though the Bengals and Reds aren't big winners now. Rich says, I'm always op- timistic at the start of a season regardless of low predictions. Perhaps the proudest and strongest willed fan in all of sports is the Cleveland fan. The last time the Indians were in the World Series was in 1954. The Browns last played in a championship game in 1965. The Cavs have come close to the NBA championship only once in 14 years. Because of these facts, FHS has few Cleveland fans. Doug Pevoar, Chris DeGennaro and myself are probably the only Cleveland sports die-hards that I know of at FHS. Doug, a pessimistic fan, ex- plains his fanaticism, It didn't matter that they were losers, I just fell in love with Cleveland sports as a whole. Chris, on the other hand, is an optimist who says, I stick with Cleveland sports teams because that's part of being a fan. I hate fair weather fans. In the long run my loyalty will pay off. Sticking with your favorite team through winning and losing is what being a sports fan is all about. A fair weather fan can't be a true sports fanatic. The word fanatic, by the way, is defined as a person who is enthusiastic beyond reason. An example c sports fanaticism happened in tht fall of 1984, when Chris, Douj and I went to see a Cavs vs Pistons exhibition game ir Toledo. Despite being the only Cav' fans there, this trio outcheere( the 2000 or so Piston fans at th( game. While I was pretty quie and Doug yelled periodically Chris qualified for obnoxious. Ht not only talked to players on tht court, but he yelled at the refs the Piston players, the Pistor coach and the Piston fans. It wa; the greatest display of fanaticisrr I've ever seen. All three of us are fanatici beyond reason. I am pretty sur« Jayme, Bob and Rich qualify a; fanatics too. There are also quit( a few FHS students who ar( fanatics of teams outside th( Detroit, Cincinnati and Clevelanc triangle. Being a sports fanatic i; great. It's just too bad the- everyone can't experience the feeling. — Clark Reinhard Ardent Cleveland Browns, Cavaliers, and, Indians fan, Chris DeGennaro, displays part of his extensive collection of Cleveland paraphernalia. 104 Pro Sports Connection students tour Europe ought together by a common interest and talent in ing as well as the desire for a trip to Europe, 24 of the i's best high school musicians formed Sing and Swing Sing and Swing Inc., otherwise known as SASI was a eographed swing choir whose shows included popular, ed, Broadway, and patriotic music. Nick and Maria geloff, SASI's advisors, organized and later chaperoned group on its tour throughout Europe. SI practiced for over a year before their three and one week tour of Europe in the summer of 1984. During the •se of the year SASI undertook many projects to raise ley for the trip. That, along with generous donations 1 the public and many area businesses, paid for the trip. during the year the group made many area perfor- ces in addition to ones at the Findlay Village Mall, The : Presbyterian Church, and on local television, ter a year of hard work, SASI left for the trip of a me. Their first stop was London, England, where they Illy discovered the punk look. Several members of group decided to experiment in punk trying such things air dyes, pierced ears, and punk clothing. From London as on to Birmingham and a performance at the Birm- am Children's Hospital and also at Coventry Cathedral, or Lisa Mertz described singing at the Cathedral as i experience I'll never forget. It was so beautiful and n we sang the feeling was indescribable. om Birmingham their tour led them back to London and across the English Channel to Paris where the group ;d such places as the Eiffel Tower and the Cathedral of e Dame. There are no words to describe being at the Df the Eiffel Tower or sitting in the Cathedral of Notre le responded junior Bill Kirkwood when asked about these two famous attractions. While in France the group took a small break and did some swimming and sunbathing on the Riviera. From the Riviera it was on to Florence, Rome, and Venice in Italy. In Rome, SASI's hotel reservations were mishandled and they ended up staying in a run down convent that had been converted into an orphanage. Junior Jenny Andrews told of the first thing said to the group as they entered the orphanage: Don't leave food around, we've got roaches. Well, you can imagine how the rest of the night went. While in Rome SASI also got to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Of the Tower Vance Kramer said, Never go there and if you do, don't go to the top. The thing really does lean and the builder forgot to put railings up. It was on to Salzburg in Austria after Italy and then to Munich, Kaiserslautern and Heildelberg in West Germany. SASI performed twice while in Germany; once in Munich at the Amerika Haus for Marathon Oil, and also at Kamstein Air Force Base in Kaiserslautern for United States Servicemen. Amsterdam in the Netherlands was the next stop on the tour then it was back to London where SASI made its final European performance for Marathon Oil. Making the perfect ending for the tour, SASI went and saw the musical Cats at New London Theatre on their last night in Europe. All the members of SASI grew through their trip to Europe whether intellectually by observing the culture and learning the history of the different European countries or personally with all the responsibility of making their own decisions, tak- ing care of themselves, and making sure they were at the right places at the right time. What's really nice about the trip is that not only did they grow but they had fun doing it. — Doug Small Sing and Swing 105 Twelfth Grade Lunch Spot: Hardees Cookie: Chocolate Chip Radio Station: 93.5 FM Subject: Math Pizza Pub: Rocking U Group (music): Dio Concert: White Snake Movie: Beverly Hills Cop Commercial: Budlight Teacher: Mr. Runkle Daytime Soap: Guiding Light T.V.

Many debates sur- rounded the drama department's production of Voices From The High School, certain aspects of the school's new curriculum, and the concept of humanism. Central to the arguments were school board Tiember Jan Dysinger, and citizen -arwence Ford, in addition to other :ommunity members and students. The arguments began in January after board member Jan Dysinger objected to the performance of oices From The High School, a play jortraying every day lives of high school students. Claiming that it 'discussed issues such as abortion, iex, drugs, and other issues, Dys- nger said it provided inappropriate ole models for students. Despite Dysinger's criticisms, nany board members supported he play. Fred Crates felt that the )lay was well done and that the cast iid a good job of showing the eriousness of the material. Barb Jebhardt, the play's director, Kevin bright, a junior high principal, and, lim Miller indicated that the play as not intended as a role model for :ids, that the tone was much more lositive than negative, and that the ilay had to be seen to get the true Tipact. Students began to retaliate by a 5tter writing campaign to The ■ourier. Juniors Jill Fisher and ackie Blem were two of the first tudents to respond to Dysinger's riticisms. Fisher stated in her ebruary 1, letter, Since t (Voices) ealt with real situations that many f the students might face, or erhaps have faced already, it would e unrealistic to label the drama as nsuitable. Blem responded with a concluding omment in her letter that read, I 'ould like to ask Mrs. Dysinger a uestion. My God teaches me to be pened minded and non- idgemental. Does yours? A letter was written by one Findlay 3sident urging the play to be resented again. According to Mrs. ane Ranney, Should we feel heated because our son missed it, r feel offended because our aughter saw it? It's awfully difficult 3 form an opinion when we can only hoose from Jan Dysinger, Findlay's 3ice of morality, on one side, and lostly students on the other side. At the next school board meeting n February 11, Dysinger stated that she had seen a videotape of the play, and objected to it more than ever. Crates asked her objective and questioned if she wanted to set up the board as a censoring mechanism for any materials with which she had objections. He suggested that if she had some action that she wanted to bring before the board, that she do so. Kathy Crates, who was present in the audience, said that her family had seen the play, and felt that it built a strong case for the fact that irresponsible decision-making leads to painful consequences. Letters concerning the play were in The Courier nearly everyday for weeks. Students opposing, as well as community members commen- ding, Mrs. Dysinger's remarks were read. Many people admitted that they rushed to their doorsteps every morning to catch the latest views on the seemingly endless debate. Others, such as Glen Williams, commended Dysinger on her courage to stand up for her beliefs. Just because Mrs. Dysinger is courageous enough to publicly op- pose some of the school administra- tion's decisions (ranging from snow days to curriculum and tex- tbooks to programs presented to our junior high students) does not give reason to those in disagree- ment to publicly ridicule her. Some took this opportunity to discuss the d rug and alcohol pro- blems in Findlay. Kevin Carty said in his February 14th, letter that Here in Findlay, attempts to educate our youth about sex, drugs, etc., have been halted because certain narrow minded people turned their heads to what they could not understand nor accept themselves. The next major concern of the community was the curriculum and textbooks used in the schools. At the February 25, board meeting, Dysinger responded to the propos- ed materials by saying her objec- tions centered around the large amount of guesswork that was necessary in reading by pictures and the lack of phonics. She also ob- jected to the use of books by Judy Blume because of their attention to sex and religion. Along with the ob- jections by Dysinger, many com- ments were made by the general public who attended the meeting. Sharolyn TenEyck questioned the value of learning to read through pictures, and disagreed with the selection of the Blume books. John Sawvel queried whether we would be regressing by teaching children to read by word attack vs. phonics. Once again, The Courier was used to express opinions of the communi- ty about the textbooks, morality, and humanism. Joanne Ingold, ad- dressed Mrs. Dysinger in her letter to The Courier stating, Our country was founded on the basis of religious freedom of choice. I respect your right to believe as you wish. I resent your attempts to impose your beliefs on me and my children through our educational system. On the other hand, Joann Willier commented in her letter that, it takes people like Jan Dysinger to speak out for our children. In the end they will be grateful. Edyle Ad- dington from Fostoria stated If parents want religion taught, then they should use the parochial school system. The fear of humanism entering the school system was also debated among community members. Jerry Lovell, pastor of the Crystal Avenue Baptist Church stated in one letter, Charles Francis Potter, former honorary president of the NEA and a Manifesto signer, stated. Education is the most powerful ally of humanism and every American public school is a school of humanism. So, in reality, we have the religion of humanism being taught in our public schools, but Christianity is not allowed in the schools because humanists have vociferously fought against Chris- tians' rights of equality. Gerald F. Dumminger, who oppos- ed Dysinger's stand against humanism, commented in one let- ter, Mrs. Dysinger made a cam- paign promise to you, but she swore an oath and now she has a respon- sibility and duty to all of us, including Humanists, Buddhists, and those of Eastern religions. Keeping a cam- paign promise is admirable, but, if it or one's own religious beliefs con- flict with their sworn oath then they have a problem, not a mandate. Though the quarrels, debates, and disputes seemed to be endless and sometimes purposeless, one thing was learned from all of it. Students, teachers, and the general public do care about what is happening in the school system and are willing to take a stance in support of their opi- nion. — By Lisa Lintner Sophomores have dedicated officers The sophomore class council not only has top quality members, but it also has hard working, dedicated officers. This is important for the representation of the class. David Manley a graduate of Glenwood, was this year's president. He had past experience on student council at Glenwood. And he has enjoyed all his years in student council and hopes to enjoy more. From the view of his peers, he's a good leader. Kevin Foreman who is vice president is also a graduate of Glenwood. He also was a member of student council in the past. He says he is having fun with the projects they are doing, and he enjoys making the student body happy. But the vice president and president can't do it all. This is where Stephanie Bacho and Leah Coats come in. Stephanie is the secretary treasurer and Leah is the represen- tative at large. Stephanie's job is to take care of the money that is raised by the council and to take notes during the weekly meetings. Leah, like Stephanie, is a Central graduate. Leah is very busy not only with her job on stu- dent council but with cheerleading as well. Leah's job deals mainly with represent- ing the members of the council. This means if a member has an im- portant idea or comment he or she would take it to her and she would share it with the officers. As you can see student council is filled with mature, responsible students able to make important decisions. And they've done a good job. — Cathy Schultz Guiding the fortunes of the sophomore class are Kevin Foreman, Leah Coats, Stephanie Bacho and David Manley.

Certainly, :hey could tell me what they hated, 3ut, liked, loved, couldn't live A'ithout? Well I got a few odd ■esponses: Elizabeth Ladd, senior, likes Sam, 'because he's fun to play with. Lisa Taglia, junior, loves George Vlichael's hair because she claims :hat it's just beautiful. Jeff Wasiiko, sophomore, likes [Ghana's sweater because it's so big, ?reen and fuzzy. As far as food goes: John Steffen, senior, likes Dunkin Hines soft cookies for the logical •eason . . . they are soft. Lynn Recktenwald, sophomore, oves red and green jellybeans Decause they taste so good! People were a different story: Anne Moore, junior, likes George Michael's tan legs and Australian accent. Lori Retry, senior, says she likes Doug Flutie because he's so nice looking. Julie Wassum, senior, likes people because they are unpredictable. A few other responses went like this: Doug Small, senior, likes physics parties at Lara Frantz's house because we never work on physics. Lisa Denman, junior, likes vacation so she can wake up at 1:00 p.m. every day. Ghana Schwobel, junior, loves traveling so she can meet a lot of new people. Brett tesnow, senior, likes warmth simply because it's there. Todd Hewett, junior, likes life because he enjoys getting around. So there it is, all in black and white.

Certain things that we absolutely hate, despise, or loathe. I, for example, dislike study halls. Let's be serious for a minute. How many of you can actually say you sit for 40 minutes diligently studying? Who can concentrate with your best friend sitting directly across from you? To me, study halls are a waste of time. Thank goodness for places we can retreat to, such as the weight room, the library, or the writing lab. What makes you mad? What do you hate? I went out and asked a few of you what it was that struck a nerve during the 1984-85 school year. First period study halls, the col- dness, hall monitors, and trying to get out of the parking lot after school. — Megan Dillon, junior. The fact that seniors don't get out earlier in the year! — Gina Stra hm, senior. Sophomores and taking driver's ed as a junior. — Lesley Shoultz, junior. Exams and taking all of our privileges away this year. — Mindy Goldner, junior. That we have to stay in school for so many hours and that we can only have one period of early release. Why should we have to stay in study hall when we could be out doing something constructive? — Amy Huffman, senior. Having so many tests in one day.'' — Sandy Franklin, sophomore. Certain student teachers. — Valerie Myers, junior. Dealing with the library, not be- ing allowed to bring beverage s into the academic wing, and parking stickers. — Robin Cutright, junior. The state's inability to trust us and think of us as mature, young adults. — Anne Moore, junior. Teachers that are inflexible and won't let me change my schedule and seniors saying they hate sophomores. — Jeff Wasiiko, sophomore. Well, there you have it. The unof- ficial 1984-85 hate list. An accurate account from you, the students, of what your pet-peeves are. — Lisa Lintner Sophomore Sandy Franklin enjoys Blue and Gold day by painting her face; but, she dislikes having so many tests in one day. 112 Sophomores Amy Hottenstein Oereck Hough Mark Howard Kim Huff Lana Hunteman Debbie Hutton Maria Ibarra Maurice Ickes fit f gw Stu Jordan Sheree Junge Kris Kaiser Steve Kauffman Susan Keiiy Amy Kern Eric Kern Matt Kern Connie Kilgore Mark Kirk John Kish Jenny Kitchen Sandra Kiett Joe Koehier Michael Kotten Kelly Kramer Laura Kroetz KrisKunkle Scott Kunkelman Michael Langevin Sally Larson Robert Laugrinovlch Vincent Laureano Penny Law Andrew Layne Lori Lazenby Amy Leatherman Jo Leatherman Karen Lee Missy Lee Susan Lee Sandy Leeper Jill Lester Mike Lewis Denise Lindeman Maria LInhart Keith Lippert Dawn Litten Sally Lodico Jessie Logsdon Michael Lohmann Tom Lonyo Teresa Lopez Julie Lowery Debi Loveman Tyrone Lucas Amy Luth Robert Lynch Sophomores 113 Kim Lydick Judy Maag Andy Mains David Manley Mike Mann Jaques Manns Jeff Maroney Lisa Marshall Ron Mason Becky Mattson Ronald Maurer Wendy McCormick Angle McCoy Karrie McDaniel Jeff McGaugh Doreen McGown mtSBB Henman McKean j imm.

They feel lucky to have the oppor- tunity of gaining teaching ex- perience here. While student teachers' daily lesson plans must reflect the course curriculum, how they teach this to the students is up to them. Most of this year's student teachers felt that our students generally showed respect although there were always a few exceptions. Every student teacher has ex- perienced one of those days, when nothing seems to go right, but overall they felt as if they ac- complished their daily teaching goals. Many times these new teachers must face the inevitable questioning student, the one who asks the unexpected question; but one student teacher replied, Although it's hard to say '! don't know,' it is always better to tell the truth to the students. Comparing their teaching ex- periences to those of their friends in other cities, they feel that in every school there are pros and cons. Mentioned as a plus for Findlay are excellent classroom facilities, top quality lab equip- ment, a diversity of course offer- ings, and an overall climate which encourages academic achieve- ment. On the minus side, student teachers encountered a small minority of students who did not respond to even the most instruc- tionally persistent efforts. Perhaps this is one of the most valuable lessons of the student teaching experience.

Dedication, patience, spirit, and the willingness to teach are just a few of the different qualities of a special teacher. Just the idea of put- ting up with senioritis, spring fever, a Friday afternoon before prom, an d understanding that we, as students, cannot always study under these con- ditions also makes teachers seem special. A prime example of a special teacher is biology teacher Mr. Tom Reynolds. His teaching tactics make learning fun. For example, he dresses up as scien- tists of the past to explain different theories. Also, he established the Reynold's Raider program where any student who receives an A in his class will automatically become a full- year member. These students are given a Raider button and are also given treats on special days. In this way, he is both encouraging and rewarding good grades. Mr. Reynolds also finds time to coach an excellent golf team. But he does not stop here. Out- side of school he is involved with Mountain Mentors, an organiza- tion aimed at building a better life for kids who have been in trouble. Mr. Reynolds is only one of the many teachers who shine at FHS. — Dawn Beck.

Probably not. Most of us just think of the bad things about school. We think about having to pry ourselves out of bed and get ready for another day of physics and chemistry. But even though there is a mass of things we dislike about getting educated, we are privileged to have a school like ours. In October, the North Central Association of Col- leges and Schools came in to check us out. You may remember a bunch of guys in suits with little name tags who came into your classrooms. These people came to evaluate the quality of our school. The North Central Association is an accrediting agency which evaluates the different areas of a school to determine the quality of education. These evaluation areas can range from a math class to how clean the parking lot is. North Central represents a 19 state area. Only about half of the schools in this area are members of the iy NCA. FHS can be proud since it has been a member for 75 years. To be a member of the NCA, a school has to prove its ability to provide a good educational program with the resources it has. An NCA school meets standards that Principal Mr. Robert Shamp discusses the results of the North Cen- tral evaluation with local chairpersons Mrs. Barb Gebhardt, left, and Mrs. Kathy Crates. are better than those re- quired by the state. We can be proud of our ex- ceptional performance. An evaluation overview by the NCA stated that Students appeared to be interested, eager to learn, and evi- denced a great deal of respect for their teachers and the educational pro- gram. They displayed ex- emplary conduct, restraint, self-discipline and responsibility. Other commendations go to the excellent services provided by the secretaries, custodians, health workers, and cafeteria workers. Also commended were the guidance program, the library media center and the extracurricular activities available. When you get down to it, education is one of the most important factors in a per- son's life. As students, we should be proud to have a school that offers so much. So the next time you find yourself dragging your body out of bed, just remember how great your school really is. — Brett Tesnow Lisa Stahl identifies a specimen Jay Wagner and Jill Clemans strike an adoring pose for the Scoff Hostettler makes up a test for her biology bug collection. photographer as they move through the halls between classes. outside his classroom.

These hard working students organized the activities necessary to provide a successful year for the class of 1986. Many activities and fund raisers were held to benefit both the entire student body and the junior class. Student council officers, along with the entire council, awoke early several Saturday mornings to clean Donnell Stadium after football games. During Homecoming week, they helped plan the festivities, prepared for the parade by building a float, decorated windows in downtown Findlay, and organized a dance. Fund-raisers included the sausage and cheese sale. Proceeds helped benefit the junior senior prom. In fact, most profits made by the junior class went to organize and finance the prom. During the Christmas holiday, the junior class had a Christmas service project in which the council contributed foods, clothes, and toys to a needy family. According to president Mindy Goldner, the project was a huge success because of all the donations. Miss Goldner, president, was no newcomer to the student council scene. In her sophomore year, she served as secretary-treasurer and en- joyed it so much that she decided to run for president her junior year. She enjoys working with student council because she likes working with people. She feels that the most important part of student council is communication, but it is also the hardest thing to accomplish. She says that this year it improved because of phone calls, bulletin board reminders, and morning announcements. The council met every two weeks, but during special events such as Homecoming, the Christmas service project and prom, the meetings were more frequent.

This is the situa- tion that Todd Runkle, Lynn Shamp and Karis Asel face. However, to these three students it poses no problems. In fact, the three agree that having a parent at school has its advantages. Todd feels the biggest advan- tage of having a parent who teaches at school is, Always hav- ing a ride home and a parking space. Todd enjoys having his father for a teacher but says, It can be difficult because he expects more from me than just a teacher would. The principal's daughter, Lynn Shamp, says, One of the nicest parts of having a father at school is he always manages to send me a flower on flower days. Another nice thing is, I always know ahead of time if there is a snow day; and, if I need a signature he's right here at school. Having your father isn't without its embarrassing moments. Lynn recalls one instance, When Tony King and I decided to skip a class, we turned the corner only to meet my father. According to Lynn, the only drawback to having a father at school is He watches me more closely, and he knows my grades before I do. According to Karis, I guess I would have to say that I like him here because whenever I need money or the car he's right here. Also, we get along well, like friends. Karis' father is Mr. Robert Asel, counselor; Lynn's father is Mr. Robert Shamp, principal; and Todd's father is Mr. Jim Runkle, math teacher. — Jenny McGuire Todd Runkle and father Mr. Jim Runkle.

Mrs. Doris Wymer has been a substitute teacher for 18 years, and she enjoys subbing very much say- ing the hardest part of teaching is substituting in an area that is un- familiar to her. Mrs. Wymer believes a substitute needs to let the students know where she stands so they don't try to get away with too much. Her funniest experience was when some of her students were fooling around and one of the children got outside the classroom by way of a window. Mrs. Wymer really enjoys subbing because of the hours, and because she doesn't have to teach every day. Mrs. Connie Cross has been a substitute teacher for the past 25 years. She started in the junior high schools, but lately her assignments have been at the high school. Mrs. Cross says she likes to substitute at the high school because she feels the students are more mature. Juniors seem to be her favorite grade to sub for, saying sophomores are still not too far out of junior high, and seniors seem prone to senioritis, so juniors seem to be the best class. Mrs. Cross' funniest experience was with a junior high student who took all the bolts out from under the desk tops and threw them away (while she wasn't looking of course). Mr. Bill Miller, another substitute at Findlay, started out with a bachelor's degree in education and an associate degree in electronics. Mr. Miller has been subbing for four years; he had subbed in Carey and was forewarned about some not so good things in the Findlay city school system, but since then he has found those rumors untrue. Mr. Miller enjoys substituting elec- tronic classes or shop related areas. He hopes to continue to sub as long as he is needed. — Ghana Schwobel Mrs. Ann Buis is pictured getting into one of the lessons she presented when subbing for Ms. Cindy Shoupe.

Kindergarten, first grade, and second grade were the only years of my schooling that I x Ray Bovaird questions when learning ever was fun while others pinpoint exact moments it became less enjoyable. considered fun. The only things I remember learning at that time were multiplication, division, and writing in cursive, and even these memories are vague at best. But that's the point: Learning at that time was fun. So much fun, in fact, that it blended in with my everyday life. Somewhere along the line, though, school stopped being fun. For me, it was back in eighth grade when I got two C's in one six weeks. From then on, I was strug- gling to raise my fallen grades while still keeping up my other grades. The pressure to keep up my grades had inadvertently destroyed my desire to learn. I asked other people when school stopped being fun and was surprised at the wide range of answers I received. Tony Musone: Eighth grade. I got my first C on a grade card. Mary Ryder: Tenth grade. It was the first year when I had to work for my grades. Ray Bovaird: When did it ever start? Chuck Busch: When we got back the first test we ever took. The responses show that as a stu- dent's priority is shifted to grades, the learning process becomes more of a task. Teachers were bombarding students with all kinds of informa- tion, but they never took into con- sideration that the students' minds weren't capable of retaining all of it. Students had the attitude, Why learn this if I'm just going to forget it after the test? But they had to learn the subject matter in order to keep their grades up. So, with much reluctance, they learned. But, the fun of learning stopped. So a word of wisdom to college- bound seniors and all other students: Don't be as concerned with grades as you are with learning. — Scott Angustia Juniors 127 Findlay students welcome Reagan October 12, 1984, was an over- cast day in Ottawa. But there was an excitement that filled the air in the little town. The President of the United States was coming by train on a historical tour that captured the nation's attention. The train, U.S. Car One, was used by former President Harry Truman on a tour of Ohio. I was fortunate enough to be in- cluded in a student political group that was going to see the President that day. We left Findlay early in the morning to help a Whitehouse ad- vance team set up for the event. When we arrived, preparations were already underway. The site was roped off and crews were busi- ly checking the sound system. Bleachers were erected for the many high school bands scheduled to perform. We were instructed by an advance team member to fill balloons with helium. What seemed like an easy job took two hours. We left for a break and when we returned there were hundreds of people waiting to get through the security checks. We were escorted to the front of the line and allowed through. We went right up front, next to where the press was scheduled to assemble. The train was going to be stopping just 10 or 15 feet in front of us. An hour went by. Two hours, then three. Impatience grew. Children began to cry, mothers' voices began to comfort with You're go- ing to see the President soon! I even began to wonder if it was all worth it. But, suddenly, around 5:35 p.m., after a long five hour wait, someone spotted the lead train. Coming next would be the President's train. Chants began to ring. Excitement grew. The crowd waved flags and banners everywhere. Finally, the President's train ar- rived. The press left the train, and then the President stepped out. A pleased smile appeared on his face as he scanned the crowd. President Reagan gave an impressive, patriotic speech. He also commended the youth of America for their political involvement. As we drove home that night, I felt I had witnessed a truly historical event that I'll never forget. And a shiver ran down my spine. — Lisa Lintner President Reagan greets the crowd at Ottawa.

Although Dickens wrote this over a century ago, it still holds true today and describes perfectly the class of 85's high school years. Our class was not always known for being one of the calmer groups of students. Making our presence known at the basketball and football games included such things as eye charts for the referees and dog bones for the Marion cheerleaders. And our enthusiasm for having a good time was evident in almost all we did both in and out of school. Of our ups and downs, the low point of our three years had to be the news that seniors had to take final exams and also could not get out of school a week earlier than the juniors and sophomores as was the tradition. A definite high would be the annual senior skip day on January 16, an overwhelming percentage of the senior class failed to show up for first period or any period as far as that goes. Our years here are supposed the best years of our lives but what about these next few years after FHS? For some of us there is college or trade school, or for others it will be going directly to a job or maybe even into the armed services. Whatever the choice, these first few years after FHS could also be the best of our lives.

Graduation: an end, a beginning I can't believe I am actually graduating. Time has gone by so fast. Thirteen years of school and this is the final wrap-up and goodbye. Thank goodness the kids are starting up for their diplomas in two lines instead of one — maybe that will speed things up a little. Even though everyone has a robe on, you can still see individual per- sonalities show. Some guys have tennis shoes and shorts under their robes while other guys are all dressed up with shirts and ties. They look like they are ready to pop! I tried to wear shorts and ten- nis shoes but my mother said no! Most of the girls have on heels and dresses and a lot of them can't walk in their heels, hold their caps on and receive their diploma at the same time. There's the vice- principal handing out diplomas in his usual three piece dark suit. I've never seen him in anything other than a three piece dark suit. Wonder if he wears it to the beach! I hav e known some of these peo- ple since kindergarten. There's my first girlfriend. She had long, brown pony tails and we used to pass love notes to each other. I used to swim with that guy at the Y.M.C.A. in grade school. I almost kept up with him then. He continued swimming and I chose to play basketball. Probably not a bad choice for either of us! There's a combination. The class brain and the class clown. I wonder which of the two will be the more successful in life. But when I think of it, what one considers successful might not mean a thing to the other. I guess success and hap- piness is an individual's belief and we all go about it in a different way and we all can have a different goal. I think when we lose sight of that goal the beginning of failure prevails. Almost my turn to go up. I wonder how people will remember me from school. I hope they remember me as a fun guy who was Chris Weaver contemplates his future and reminisces about his past. a good friend and cared about others.

Whether it's the reason we've neglected to turn in our yearbook article, or why we haven't been at school the past few days, excuses become a necessity in our daily lives. The school system itself provides the ideal at- mosphere for making excuses. Who ever tells Mrs. Core where they have really been second period? If it were up to me, Brodies restaurant would be allowed to give students passes back to class. And how many students truly have their parents sign their excuses for why they were ab- sent from school? As you turn 18, life becomes easier because you can legally write your own. At that time we can become more creative. Instead of being sick from school, you could have had brain surgery. As the year progresses I notice more and more psychology students complaining of ptomaine poisoning on the days that scheduled research projects are due. And during those dreary Monday study halls you can always skip down to Mrs. Potter's office and inquire about the pre-gynecology program at Bluffton College or ask Mrs. Gibson why you Lara Frantz tries out yet another excuse on senior class principal John Celebrezze. haven't been nominated as student of the month.

I have no idea what the word means, just like many other seniors. It seems that research involves finding someone who re- searched the same topic a year or two before, borrowing his paper, changing a few things here and there, correcting his mistakes and recopying it. This seems to be the true meaning of research. The question often arises, What do you learn from this? The truth is, you learn about the same amount about your subject but quicker and in the words of your peers. Not only is this type of research easy, but understandable! This is the easiest and most basic type of researching, and as a sophomore you learn this quick- ly. But as you get older and become an upperclassman, you learn new and more interesting ways to research your topic. For example, Biology II students can take a field trip to the Roof. This back to nature kind of research takes you to the rustic setting of the old Hancock Brick Tile Co. building which sits on the banks of the beautiful Eagle Creek and the nearby clay pits. Take a few friends, some necessities, build a fire and enjoy, while you research. For the physics students, take a road trip to Toledo and study the accelera- tion of your car. Psychology students could at- tend a concert at the Toledo Sports Arena and see some real psychos. While you are there you might even see the Chemistry I and II, and health students researching how toxic chemicals affect the human body, or, the chemical make-up of those chemicals. The computer students can always research a good video game or break into Marathon or Findlay High's com- puter system. I, myself, find these types of research more enjoyable than the standard library approach, and more beneficial than sitting in a library for hours on end. Even if you don't get better grades, I'm sure you'll learn more. — Ken Laube Ken Laube ignores conventional research methods.

Linda Camp- bell and Cyndi Scanland met for the first time in the fifth grade. It seems they both had their eyes on the new boy on the block. When the two girls realized he didn't like either of them, they were thrown together in instant revenge and the rest is history. Cyndi and Linda have been nearly inseparable from that day forward! Through the bad times and the good they have managed to remain friends without too many major problems. There have been many good times for these two. Among the most memorable were the Van Buren basketball games which they attended, of course, not for the sport, but for the guys; Linda and Cyndi believe they set the trend for the many girls who would follow in their footsteps in the search of Van Buren guys. Other exciting times were sophomore biology class when selecting a prime frog for dissection could entail a half an hour or more. After the best frog had been selected, and the initial dissection completed, Linda and Cyndi found it a sport to cut off the frog's fingers and throw them at others. And we can't forget the time that Linda and Cyndi were serving a detention for Mr. Smith at Donnell Jr. High School when they decided it would be fun to turn the clock forward so they would only serve 10 minutes of detention. Mr. Smith still hasn't heard about that one yet! Or so they think. Linda and Cyndi have had many good timer in their seven years of friendship and are positive that even throughout college they will always end up together, best friends for life! — Ghana Schwobel Longtime friends Cyndi Scanland and Linda Campbell. 138 Seniors it lL Amy Franks Lori Fry Seniors 139 Seniors develop strange disease It may have been the plague or maybe some rare social disease contagious only among seniors, but whatever it was it took its toll on this year's seniors. On the morning of January 16, over 75% of the senior class failed to make it to their first period class or to any other classes. The disease that caused these illnesses was found to be Senioritis and once every school year it rages through the senior class causing a hysteria known as Black Wednesday, or in more common terms Senior Skip Day. The roots of the ailment are unknown, but it is said that it all started at a physics party when one of the students showed up with the disease. No names will be men- tioned in order to protect the inno- cent, but the disease was in the stage where it was very contagious and it spread like wildfire affecting nearly every senior in the area. One of the first symptoms was deliriousness and a lack of com- mon sense. For example, some of the seniors decided to sit in a hot tub out- side in the middle of winter with snow on the ground. Others decided to go sledding or play incline football on the side of the reservoir. Yet still others decided to drive around looking for parties, or, travel to Toledo. The ironic part was that some seniors were delirious enough to have a party on that same Wednesday night apparently forgetting about school on Thursday. This second symptom of forget- fulness was noticed when some of the seniors forgot where they lived, forgot what time they had to be home on a school night, or just forgot there was school the next day. Many didn't get home till 1;00 or 2:00 in the morning and in rare cases, some seniors never found their way home at all. The next morning these same students also forgot to get up and go to school, a definite sign of Senioritis. Since it was now certain what the disease was, the parents of these students were forced to call the school and report that their child wasn't coming to school for fear of it spreading to next year's senior class. Since the disease was so con- tagious, some seniors that remembered to get out of bed, were quarantined to certain households where they entertained each other till the illness ran its course. The disease usually only lasts for a 24 hour period, but in some cases it lasted long enough for some to miss two days of school. Some students recovered just long enough to attend a few classes. Un- fortunately a few underclassmen were exposed to the disease and they in turn had to stay home from school the next day. Luckily though, the disease was under con- trol for most seniors to attend school the next day in perfect physical and mental health. — Ken Laube Ralph Gallegos Patricia Gallagher Greg Garland Doug Garner Lisa Gary 140 Seniors Katrina Jean Hamlin Mike Hampshire Doreen Hanlin David Hannah Lori Harden Seniors 141 Chris Huff Amy Huffman Douglas Hughes Keith Hughes Roberta Hummeli 142 Seniors David Johnson Fran Johnson Jeffery Johnson Sally Johnson Tom Johnson Together at home and school Imagine this. You are walking down the hall at school with a bunch of your friends when suddenly you pass your sister. She actually says hi to you. How embarrassing. Right? Personally, I have never had this problem, but I know many people who do. These people have mixed emotions about the whole thing. They agree that sometimes it is fun to have a brother or a sister in school with you. At other times, however, it can be a pain. There are many times that it is good to have a brother or sister in the same school. An older sister comes in handy to help with homework. Being older, she probably has already had the classes that you are taking and knows how to do the work. Also if you have a class with your brother or sister, you can take turns doing the homework. In spite of this, a sister or brother at school can really get in your way sometimes. They always seem to be around at the wrong time. When you are with all your friends, you don't really want them hanging around. Even though your friends may not really mind, you still feel funny when a brother or sister is around. You see enough of them at home. According to senior Chris Schultz the greatest thing about having sophomore sister Cathy at the high school with him is that I'm graduating early. On the other hand, Cathy says having an older brother in the same school is great because, I can bum money off of him. — Amy Lauck Chris and Cathy Schultz: He graduated early. Seniors 143 Anita S. Kumar Elizabeth Ladd Sean Lafferty Tracy Lane 144 Seniors Fritzbusters: election year fun Entering Doug Small's bedroom, a combination of AC DC posters and Reagan-Bush '84 posters catch my eye. The more I look around, the more I wonder just why the Fritz- busters group are who they are. Pins, bumper stickers, newspaper ar- ticles, pictures and posters clutter the room. Youth for Reagan, or, Fritzbusters, modeled after the movie Ghostbusters, was actually a preparation team for the '84 elec- tions. They distributed signs for local Republicans and made banners and posters for Reagan's visit to Ottawa. In addition, all Fritzbusters fondly remember licking over 5,000 envelopes for flyers sent through the mail. Fritzbusters was not designed, however, only for sealing envelopes. It was designed to involve youth in the political process, allowing for a more politically enthusiastic youth. These students also gained insights into the ideas and principles behind Reagan's campaign. Fritzbusters, from the left, Lane Montz, Todd Wachter, Jay Wagner and Doug Small. When asked what the best things about Fritzbusters was, all referred to the fact that seeing President Reagan in person and hearing him speak was the most exciting part.

Wachter and Lane Montz, all members of the Presidential Ad- vance Team, had the job of check- ing passes and patrolling the area. I received two very memorable answers as to why they joined Fritzbusters: Small said, Originally all I wanted were campaign pins, but I never got any. And on a final note Wagner add- ed, Where would the world be without Republicans like me, after all, I might be President some day. — Tim Lauth Kris Langstaff Paul Lapczynski Kenneth Laube Amy Lauck n r Timothy M.

There was only one reward. And not very many won it, but oh how they tried. And when the last buzzer rang out and the stands lay empty, they had given everything they had. Every last ounce of energy, every bone glad- ly broken for one cause: Victory. The long hours, the sweat and the frustration, all for that one chance to grab on to the greatest feeling anyone can ever have. And why? Why the months of torture, and repetition ? Why the long trips to Cleveland and other Buckeye Conference cities? What possesses them to burn their bodies? Quite contrary to what might be thought, it is not always for the school or for the glory of victory. They battle for themselves and their teammates, their lifelong friends who have devoted as much time and sweat into seeking the same goal! Victory. And when June rolls around, after all their goals have been ac- complished, those days of glory are just memories of a group of people who mean more to each other than anyone else. And after their tassels fall from the air to the ground they'll know it really didn't matter if they lived in vic- tory or defeat because all along they were the real winners. They were always victorious, and they were better than most. — Bryan Alcott State champion golf team, from left, Dale Parries, Greg Wilhelm, Jack Kramer, Coach Tom Reynolds, Mike Metzker, Ted Kramer. 146 Seniors Julie McDonald Malla Mertus Mike Metzker Seniors 147 It is all in a day's work I have worked at the local McDonald's for the past two years. During that time I have had encounters with a variety of people such as two homosexuals walking hand in hand wearing shirts which read, Men in Denver are better, to foreigners who can't speak English. I have also been asked if I would pray with a customer so that I may see the light of God. The most memorable happening, however, was when I entered the women's restroom to clean it and I found two people standing around getting high; and, to my surprise, they asked, Do you want to join us? Other people who have worked fast food have also had similar experiences with people. They can be so irritating! Like the kid who comes in and asks, What kind of ice cream do you have? and you recite all 33 flavors to find that he wants chocolate. Or, everybody loves the drunks who come around on Friday and Saturday. They not only make it dif- ficult for you when ordering but seem to leave their mess all over the place. Lastly there are those people who are always pushing pamphlets about how you too can be a follower of Jesus. For some reason they always are around when I'm at my worst. They just make me angry but later I feel guilty because maybe I didn't act too Christian-like toward them. — Patty Arnold Chris Capponi's job at Little Caesars includes donning this costume for parades and special events.

Oh what fun it is going out with your friends to do things you're not supposed to be doing with the chance of getting caught doing what you're doing but then going ahead doing what you're doing anyway for the thrill and excite- ment of doing it. Seniors seem to excel in this activity. Most call it against the law, we call it Illegal Fun! From the beginning of the school year, seniors have gotten Illegal Fun off to a good start. It is rumored a trio of sly, daring, fun- loving seniors have perfected the art of pumpkin thievery. Say goodbye to the days of taking them from farmers' fields. C'mon it's 1985. Today we go Krogering. Those cute little pumpkins just sit there practically begging to go to new homes. I heard it's a good time driving around town with a car load of hot pumpkins. Better yet, it's illegal. What could be more fun! We mustn't forget to mention the ever popular, but quite unoriginal, pastime of toilet- papering. This form of entertain- ment can be quite decorative unless of course you are lucky enough to get the 100+ roll treat- ment. This is no longer festive decoration but a Charmin disaster. Spray painting the school's walls is another classic. Isn't it fun watching the custodians sand- blasting your artwork and remov- ing three inches of the brick with scouring pads? Please, do try to be original. A simple 85 is so passe. Try your hand at limericks, poetry, or graphics. I personally believe a body outline would look quite fashionable in the court- yard. Everyone will wonder who died! Better yet make it the outline of your favorite principal! And guess what else? It's illegal! — Kim Reichert On Halloween the football team's block- ing sleds were adorned with these hand- somely carved decorations.

Well, this can be a common view of what it is like to be a senior. To an extent, it is, but a lit- tle thought has to go toward what we'll do after graduation. Some students decide to go into the armed forces, others decide to work; some decide not to make a decision. One group left is the one that plans to go to college. After taking the SAT and the ACT, a barrage of college materials arrive and from these materials, and personal ex- periences, a decision must be made. Of course, the letters from these colleges are helpful, but each one says: You show ex- cellent potential of succeeding, or Your academic record in- dicates that you will probably suc- ceed. These letters do help, but for the most part, you must write to the colleges in which you are interested in order to receive literature about them. Otherwise, all the mail comes from small- town colleges in the hills of West Virginia. There are several questions that should be answered before deciding on a college: What will be the major area of study? Does the college specialize in that area? How much does it cost? Is it close to home, or, is it too close? Parents and counselors tell us to ask these questions, and then to come to a decision. Students, on the other hand, have different ideas as to what they want in a college. As they talk to represen- tatives these questions arise, but the actual decision is commonly made from talking with students attending that school. This is the time most of the true questions are asked: What is the boy girl ratio? Are there wild parties that last for weeks? Is the drinking age 19 or 21 ? Are the dorms co-ed? Only after discovering the answers to these questions can you tell your parents that the school is highly recognized, that the cost is reasonable, that it will provide a good education, and that it suits your needs perfectly. That it suits your needs perfect- ly, means that all the answers you received as you talked to students were exactly what you wanted. This statement implies to the parent that you are talking education while you are really talking party. After coming to a decision, the only problem left is: Will the col- lege accept you? Hopefully it will, or you will have to start over. But no matter what you decide, you have to make sure that it is really where you want to spend the next two to four years of your life. — Ray Bovaird • Gary Sites II Brad Slough Matt Slough Amy Smith Bobbie Jo Smith DeWight Smith Kelley Smith Steve Smith Seniors 153 Jim Sparks Ann Spoon Kimberly Springer Doug Sprouse Rhonda Spurlin Cheering takes on new meaning Traditions. There are many different ones. Embedded in our souls, these traditions unfold at many points in the year. One such tradition is Homecoming, and with Homecoming comes the an- nual powderpuff football game. And a group of hard working (?), brave guys come out every year donned in cheerleading skirts and sweaters to cheer on their respective teams. This year, the powderpuff cheerleaders, made up of two squads, the juniors and seniors, had about six guys each. There was no problem getting enough enthusiastic young men to give up their jeans and t- shirts for blue and gold mini-skirts and sweaters for one night. Dave Worrell, a senior, was asked why he chose to give up his valuable time to become a powderpuff cheerleader. Dave replied I've always wanted to put on a skirt and show off my legs. Dave said one of the highlights of the evening was trying to imitate the female anatomy. The powderpuff cheerleaders enjoyed their even- ing in the spotlight so much that they inquired about cheering at every varsity football game for the re- mainder of the season. But these plans were foiled after learning that Conference rules only allowed a certain number of cheerleaders on the field at once. They did, however, get to cheer at one last event, a school-wide pep rally held before the Fremont game. Mrs. Kay Stoner, the cheerleading advisor, worked with them before the game, teaching them routines and cheers which delighted the student body. — Lisa Lintner Senior powderpuff cheerleaders Tim Lauth, Scott Kirby, Todd Wachter and Kendale Ritchey. 154 Seniors Gwen Sullivan Jim Taglia Serena Tate Jeri Ten Eycic Seniors 155 Helping out: everyone benefits It is quiet in your classroom when suddenly someone knocks and makes half the class jump. It is just an office aide delivering a message. Why do these people do this terrifying job? Some people do it to get out of a boring study hall, others do it to help out the office personnel. There are other ways in this school for a person to help others. For example, the writing lab has students help other students write. The students helping in the writing lab do it because they like to help fellow classmates and are interested in computers. Of course some peo- ple are in there to get out of a study hall just like the office runners. There are students who help out a teacher.

Said Tracey, When Mr. Burgess asked me if I wanted to help I agreed because I thought it would be better than sitting in study hall. It's one of several reasons students help out around the school. teacher's good side? Probably not many. It can be very helpful if you are thinking about being a teacher. It might discourage you when you find out about all the time consuming things they have to do or it might confirm your decision to be a teacher. When I was a teacher's aide I enjoyed grading papers and putting up bulletin boards. It can give you a break from doing school work. There are many ways for a per- son to help out. I have mentioned only a few. If you were or are a person who has helped out, somehow I think you should be proud that you have helped make Findlay High School a better school. I don't think the school would run as smoothly without all the students who help out, whatever their reasons might have been. — Shala Gruver Karia Thrush Tina Tidswell Tracey Tidswell Karen Torborg Teresa Tussing 156 Seniors Charles Weaver Chris Weaver Jeannette Weir Seniors 157 Ranae Young Chris Younger Kelly Zechman Angle Zeigler Teresa Zellers 158 Seniors i Brad Zimmerman GregZirger DuaneZitkovic Jon Zwinski Doug Small Senior class officers wrap-up eventful year Senior class officers are elected to represent their classmates. The officers tried to make the class officers and the class council more unified than in the past. The officers are responsible for such activities as a class gift, the an- nouncements for graduation, and more common activities like the many dances and parties. The senior class representatives tried to link the class coun- cil with the students. Our dances and social activities received a lot of cooperation from the students and we are glad. Sometimes our many efforts were ignored but we never gave up trying. The sausage and cheese sale has been growing every year not only in the school but in the community. This was only possible with the participation of the students. Profits were used for dances, the senior gift, the last senior party, homecoming and senior citizens luncheons. The class officers were in charge of choosing the senior an- nouncements. We, with the help of Balfour, picked the an- nouncement, design, slogan and type style. With little disagreement we came up with three choices which the students then voted on. Officers of the senior class helped with many of the activities involving the school and the community. At Homecoming we as a council, decorated the school. We also painted downtown store windows. The council also built a float which won first prize. Our Homecoming parade is one of the biggest our town holds. The Homecoming dance was very popular this year. Other dances sponsored by the senior class were also just as successful. The class officers also help the senior citizens once a month by hosting a luncheon, and with student support these luncheons were very successful. Guiding the Class of 1985 were Chuck Busch, kneel- ing, president; and, from the left, Amy Roth, secretary-treasurer; Bernie Moore, vice-president; and Zack Neds, representative at large. The senior class officers noticed from all the events that the class of '85 has exactly that: Class. Also, spirit and pride. With the support the students gave, it has been fun to work as a class officer. But, the officers' duties are not done at the end of the year. We are also in charge of the class reunions held every five years. And I know that in 1990 the class will have just as much spirit and pride. — Chuck Busch Seniors 159 1 . ' U- ' jr ■ Our athletics program is an excellent complement to the competitive academic atmosphere of the classroom. Trojan athletes combine physical ability and an overpowering desire to win with their knowledge of the game. The coaching staffs appreciate their players' hustle and dedication as much as they do pure talent; and they instill in the athletes a sportsmanlike attitude. These are the ingredients that make us a sports giant. But how can we forget another important ingredient, the fans? Definitely one of the more vocal groups around. New and innovative cheers can be heard rolling across the field or reverberating off the walls. Often the command to sit down is voiced, but how can a teenager be seated when his comrades are giving 100% to win a close one? Undoubtedly the parents play an integral part in many of the Trojan wins. Across the field from the student section a sea of blue and gold can be seen in the form of V-neck sweaters. And a new thing has entered into the hands of every die hard fan, The Terrible Trojan Towel. One way or another, each student is affected by these games people play. It is all good. Competition builds the mind and spirit and works to bring the whole student body together. Kendale Ritchey leads a cheer. Rich Baerwaldt exhorts his'comrades to victory, and, Chad McClellan looks for a teammate to receive his pass. Girls win Conference tournament and title There is only one way to describe tine 1984 girls var- sity; it was a team of firsts. For the first time in league history the girls soccer team captured both the league championship and the tour- nament championship in the same season. Their 14-1-2 record hasn't been topped. The girls' only loss was dealt to them by Centerville, but even then they played as a team. The Centerville coach commented about the Trojans' ability, I'm very impressed with them. They stayed tough and played with more togetherness than any other team I've seen. It was this togetherness which made the girls a success and helped pull them through those rough games. Much of the girls' success can be attributed to the team's Best Defensive and Best Offensive award win- ners Amy Copeland and Gina Strahm, respectively. Co- captains Joy Woolley and Sue Koehl, who each gave 110%, kept the team going during those grueling prac- tices and hard games. Special recognition went to Woolley who was named first team All-Midwest United States. Next year's team has large footsteps to follow, but with team leaders like Kristi Erner, a junior first team All-League goalie, and Kim Decker, a sophomore and the team's Most Improved Player, step- ping into those footsteps should not take very long. Along with the hard work the team also liked to have a good time, and they never ceased to find new ways to cause some trouble, especially on those long bus rides to and from the games! Food fights were common on the bus — especially in the back end. One such fight took place with rock hard M M cookies on the way to one of the first games. Most of the girls came away with worse bruises from the cookies than the game that night. Another well known form of torture was the pile up. Some unsuspecting victim was picked out, and, presto, that unfortunate person tried to breathe or call for help as nine or ten people piled up on top of her in the bus aisle. Jill Clemens was quite often the victim of these pranks, but through all the crushed ribs and sticky jerseys she was a good sport. It's understandable why the coaches, Bill Beck and Jim Tidswell, never wandered back into that jungle.

With a book for a table and Iron Maiden, Ratt or some other heavy metal group cranked up in the background they play cards. This situation was not special; it was an ordinary occurrence for the boy's soccer team on its way to or from a game. Said sophomore Jon Whithaus, Cards kept us from think- ing about the game too much and getting pre-game worries. It must have worked because the Trojan soccer team concluded its season with a superb record. Six returning seniors led this year's team to an ex- cellent regular season record of 12-3-3. Advancing to sectional tournament play, Findlay posted two convincing victories over Sylvania Northview and Springfield with scores of 6- 0 and 9-0 respectively only to lose a heartbreaking game against Anthony Wayne. Having control of the ball most of the game Findlay took shot after shot on Anthony Wayne's goalkeeper every time com- ing up empty-handed. Then a penalty in the Findlay goalbox gave An- thony Wayne the chance to break the zero-zero tie and take the lead. The shot went in after just missing the outstretched hands of first team All-League and honorable mention All- State goalkeeper Darren Lepper. That goal was the only score in the 0-1 loss to Anthony Wayne. Despite the season-ending loss to Anthony Wayne, winning the league title made the season all worth- while, said senior John Mc- Cabe. Findlay, 6-0-1 in the league, assured itself of the NWOHSSL league title by ty- ing arch rival Toledo St. Johns who had stolen the championship the year before.

After plac- ing second in the regional tournament last year with a 23-3 record, the girls com- piled a record of 15-8; they were 5-4 in the Buckeye Conference. But the season itself had a lot of funny and good times for the whole team. One of the best memories was at the Buckeye Con- ference tournament in which the Trojans finished second. During the tourney first and second All-Buckeye team selections were made and for Findlay honors went to Sarah Edelbrock, first team, and Lisa Jensen, second team. After this long, exhausting day the team headed home only to discover they left the balls at the gym. Returning to the gym they decided not to stop at a restaurant, but instead to stop and get some munchies. Anne Newton and Andee Hickle jumped off the bus to gather a variety of junk food, but only Andee got back on the bus when off they went. Seconds later, they realized someone was running and shouting behind them. It was Anne; they had left her behind at the gas station. The season, however, con- sisted of more than missed buses and junk food. We showed a lot of im- provement overall this year from the beginning to the end of the season. We had all the talent of being a good team but since we were a young team the only thing we really lacked was ex- perience. Next year I think we will be a very strong team and hopefully make it a long way, stated Jensen, one of the many juniors on the team. Lisa was awarded the High Spiker award as was Edelbrock. Jensen was also selected for the District 8 All Star team. Edelbrock, co-captain, was an honorable mention All Star team selection. Hickle, a senior, par- ticipated in the District All Star match. She was also named the team's High Server with 159 serves and only seven misses all season. Cheryl Peiffer, also a senior, was co-captain and received the Leadership award. Betsy Bowman, a junior, was High Setter for the Trojans. According to Hickle, We did a lot better all year than I thought was possible. With the loss of three starters, I thought we lacked a lot of talent. Fortunately I was wrong. starting at the bottom of the op- posite page and moving cloclcwise across both pages, Coach Jane Dillon gives the team some instruc- tions, Sarah Edelbrock stretches high for the hit, the Trojans ready themselves for an oncoming serve, Cheryl Peiffer prepares to serve, Lisa Jensen and Betsy Bowman concentrate on defense, and, Peif- fer explodes for a spike.

A highlight of the game was when Tebbe served 14 straight points. She also received team high scoring honors. The Marion game was the most exciting for the girls. Mold explained, We beat them after they beat us on our home court. It was great. The junior varsity team, as its record shows, was suc- cessful playing the 4-2. We worked hard during prac- tice, added Herring, but we dreaded the ready drill. The ready drill consisted of diving forward, moving from side to side, and back and forth all in a defensive position for five minutes. According to Nold, It's the worst thing we have to do! But with a 15-2 record Coach Dillon obviously made those tough practices pay off. Starting at the far left on the op- posite page and moving clockwise across both pages, Jodie Errett sets the ball for a spike, Jeanine Gralak shows return form, Emily Zahler jumps high for a spike, Lisa Tebbe reaches for a return try, Missy Wise makes a return effort, Susan Nold concentrates on the ball, Susan Barnhill prepares for a hit, and, Tebbe steadies herself for a return hit. Volleyball 169 Run well in spite of disappointing record At first glance one might tinink the cross country team record of 1-7 was pret- ty poor. But this was deceiv- ing. To get a good look at this year's harriers, one has to look behind the record. There was quite a lot of in- dividual determination. Senior Todd Wachter was the captain of the team. His fifth place finish at the Buckeye Conference meet earned him a spot on the Conference first team. He went on to qualify for the district meet only to injure his leg before the race. Coach Bob Brater's first year was a rebuilding one. A number of experienced run- ners were lost last year to graduation. This year's boys squad saw only two return- ing lettermen, Wachter and Dan Villanueva. One bright spot was the addition of a girls team. Sparked by last year's state qualifier, Laura Anning, and the superb running by freshman Julie Williamson, the girls went on to record a second place finish at the Conference meet. William- son was a first-team Con- ference member while Ann- ing and Missy Freel ran to a second-team showing. Through the course of the season Williamson captured the school record for 5000 meters and, along with Ann- ing, qualified for the State meet. With all members of the girls squad returning, Brater has something to look forward to next year. Reflecting on the season, Wachter said, I had a really great time running with everyone. I just wish we could have gotten a few more victories for Coach Brater. He was a super guy and he cared about every person on the team. One thing I'll never forget about him was the way he psyched a person up. He did a great job at that. Villanueva added, We messed around during cross fijsxjm country, but we had fun. End of the season awar included, high point troph to Wachter and Williams and runner-up trophies Villanueva and Anning. Starting at the left and mov clockwise across both pages, ■ Foster and Joey Hernandez pi each other to the limit.

Under the coaching of Jack Adams the girls finished the season w ith an impressive 13-4 record. The tennis team won the Buckeye Conference title for the third year in a row. Deb- bie Knauss (third singles), Tracey Tidswell and Debbie Adams (first doubles), and Robin Dimling and Margie Gordley (second doubles) all won a Conference cham- pionship in their divisions. Kelly Seppi (first singles), and Ami Parekh (second singles) were runners-up in their divisions in the Buckeye Conference tourney. Adams and Tidswell, play- ing at the number one doubles spot were runners- up in sectionals but lost in the first round of districts. Another outstanding perfor- mance came from number one singles player Seppi. She made it to semifinals in districts but was defeated in a close match by Jodie Cramer from Tiffin Colum- bian. Knauss ended her season at number three singles with the best record on the team winning 18 out of 21 matches. Knauss was named the Most Valuable Player, Seppi was presented with the 110% award and Robin Dimling was given the Most Improved Player award. Adams said of their per- formance, Looking back on the season I realize that we did pretty well. Nobody ex- pected Findlay to do that well because we were most- ly juniors and sophomores, but we silenced our critics when we won Buckeye. So who knows what will happen next year. Seppi stated, We all wanted to win together, not as individuals. We never tried to lay the blame on anyone else because we were a team first, and whether we won or lost, it was as a team. Senior Sue Wilson said of her last year on the team, We had a lot of really good times on and off the court. Our weekend at Buckeye is something I will never forget. Teamwork was really im- portant to these girls. After someone would lose and start to get down the others would be there to pick her up off the ground, stated team manager Lisa Taglia.

My average even dropped two strokes after the loss. There is no doubt that this team steadily improved and peaked at the right time — the State playoffs. The 1984 Trojans dominated the State finals. They led after the first day and ended up winning by a big 15 strokes with a two day score of 639. But how was this waltz through State accounted for? The toughest part was getting out of our district, said senior Jack Kramer, and when we did we went into State confidently hyped up. One funny aspect of the tournament was that the Trojans already knew they had won even before Dale Parries, Ohio's Golfer of the Year, came off the course. But this didn't seem to bother Dale, When they did count my score, we really drilled 'em, he said. It took awhile for the feel- ing to hit Coach Reynolds though, I didn't feel any dif ferent from when we came in third, but when they started to present the trophies, I just started swell- ing inside, we were the best in the state, the Coach exclaimed. But one thing that sets this team apart from all the others is that they were a team in the fullest sense of the word. Coach Tom puts it into perspective, Of all the teams I've ever coached, this was truly a team. They got along together, they cooperated with each other and me; this was one big ele- ment of our success. starting at the far left on the op- posite page and moving clockwise, Barry Pry tees off, the State Champs pose with their trophy, Greg Wilhelm starts a putt rolling, Ryan Davis follows through with a short iron, and, Ted Kramer con- centrates on a short putt.

Earn playoff berth, share league crown It had been a long time since Donnell Stadium held nearly 8,000 people and longer yet since Findlay High School had won a Buckeye Conference championship but both were accomplished this year. The day was November tenth when Find- lay hosted eventual state champion Toledo St. Francis and extra bleachers had to be brought in to accom- modate the tremendous crowd of nearly 8,000 peo- ple for the first game of the State playoffs. A week earlier Findlay outplayed fourth ranked Lorain Admiral King on the Admiral's home field to gain a share of the Buckeye Con- ference title and a spot in the playoffs. Mark Ritzier, a junior wide out, com- mented, Everybody played his best against Lorain when we needed it, and we just totally dominated them. Assistant coach Bill Baron explained, People under- estimated us all year; the kids proved they were champions and the highlight of the season was beating the Admirals because they were supposed to be bigger and stronger, and we proved them wrong. To say that Findlay was underestimated is probably the biggest understatement made this football season. Not one coach from any of the other Buckeye Con- ference teams picked Findlay to finish anywhere near the top of the league standings. But after the team riddled off eight con- secutive wins and climbed to seventh in the state polls, the doubting Thomas's turned into true believers. Findlay played two of its best games on the road with mid-season wins over San- dusky, 26-20, and Zanesville, 24-7; however, after Findlay defeated Elyria 13-11, the Trojans faced its toughest opponent thus far in the form of the Fremont Little Giants. The hard fought struggle came down to the final 1 1 seconds and a 40 yard field goal by Fre- mont handed the team its first defeat of the year. Thus the importance of a win against Admiral King, a feat the Trojans accom- plished impressively, 26-15. The only other loss, 17-14, came in the state playoffs on a field goal in sudden death by Toledo St. Francis. Jayme Logsdon, a senior lineman, summed up his thoughts by saying, I hate field goal kickers! The biggest ingredient Findlay possessed was teamwork. According to Larry Helms, a senior flanker, At the beginning of the year there were only 30 people, players and coaches, who thought we could be where we were at the end, but after we pulled together and became more of a family, we started play- ing to our ability. More as a team, not individuals. Being a part of that family was the highlight of the year. Mike Bihn, a senior end, felt the same way, In the beginning we played as dividuals but after our f game we became a te and it showed in the end.' Teamwork also brou confidence in their play expressed by Dan G stone, a senior lineman, was a great team effort; should have won it all. Head Coach Dan Ev put the year into persp five for his players by say If there is one thing remember in life, let it that you were a champ for no one can take 1 away.

Dave Luth expresses the same attitude, I thought we made improvements throughout the year and I'm looking forward to next fall. With attitudes like this, Findlay football will be on the rise for years to come. After such a fine varsity season it was understand- able that many Trojans received post-season re- cognition.

Without a doubt the highlight of the season was an upset of Lorain Admiral King. At the time the Admirals were undefeated and ranked second in the state. Ironically, the last regular season game Admiral King lost was on the road to the Trojans last year. The win gave tremendous confidence to the players and left a memory that will never be forgotten. It was a fun year because after we beat Lorain we knew that we could play with anybody in the state of Ohio, said senior Chris Weaver. This feeling was felt by all the Trojans; senior Chad McClellan added, The whole team felt great after beating L.A.K., if you can beat a team of that caliber you can beat anyone. Being a veteran ball club with seven seniors, the Trojan's strong suit was ball handling and poise. Opposition found it hard to rattle the Trojans with pressure and often resorted to numerous defenses to slow the Trojan offensive attack. The lack of consistant play, however, often overshadowed some outstanding efforts. Baerwaldt summed up the season best by stating, I feel we had enough talent to be a state ranked team but we weren't very consistent this year and never proved ourselves a state power. Basketball 181 strong finish earns team 12-8 record The junior varsity basketball team came on strong winning four of its last five games to compile a 12-8 record for first year coach Jerry Snodgrass. The team was made up of sophomores with the exception of only two junior players. It was junior Jim Givens that led the scoring attack and was responsible for most of the ball handling chores. The rest of the players were shuffled around a lot giving everyone a chance to display his talents. Throughout the year Coach Snodgrass was happy with the team's development, I was very Starting at the right and moving clocliwise, Barry Pry looks for an opening, Jefi Denman looks for an open man, Scott Hehr readies himself for a jump shot.

With such a senior oriented varsity club this year many of these junior var- sity players will be called on for duty at the varsity level next year. Looking at their 7-5 Buckeye Conference record the future chances for a Trojan cham- pionship look very bright. Hard work and hustle is going to be the key according to Coach Snodgrass; The future is promising provided the players are willing to outwork their op- ponents. The talent is definitely there and hopefully it will be put to good use. Among the sophomore standouts were leading rebounders Andy Mains and Dave Smith who accounted for 122 and 108 boards respectively. Smith also shot well from the field leading the team with a 52% mark while compiling 136 points. Barry Pry and Richie Bell also eclipsed the cen- tury mark in points scoring 160 and 107 points respectively. 182 JV Basketball JV BASKETBALL, front, from the left.

St. Francis, dealing Findlay a 3- 2 loss, advanced to the State playoffs. Such displays of team spirit and sports- manship were not a com- mon occurance, but the Findlay crowd was definitely behind the team. Findlay finished second in the Northwest Ohio Hockey Conference despite the team's lack of up- perclassmen. Although it had only four seniors on the team, Findlay was not lack- ing in experience. With ten returning lettermen, two of whom were second year let- termen, Findlay had enough experience and skill that it could play with the best teams in the state even on a bad night. Experience was not always the main factor in a player's performance as shown by freshman Ted Kramer. Skill was Ted's main asset and over the season he gained some of the ex- perience necessary to perfect his ability. Ted led the team in goals (61) and in total points (91). During the season he ac- cumulated 11 hat tricks. Ted's brother, senior cap- tain Jack Kramer, led the team in assists (34) and was second in total points (48). Jack and Ted also led the team in penalties with 24 minors each. This is not real- ly a bad statistic because it shows their aggressiveness which is reflected by their high number of goals and assists. Other statistical leaders included Ron Davis, second in total goals scored (18), and goalie Darren Lepper with 431 saves and a goals allowed per game average of two.

Out of 43 wrestlers who began the season, only 17 of those stayed with the team. A successful wrestling team, according to Shoop, is one that uses teamwork, has concern for others and is full of encouragement. He also feels it is important to reach out and help elementary and junior high students to spark an interest in wrestling at an early age. Shoop encouraged wrestlers to invite younger brothers and friends to prac- tices to teach them about high school wrest ling. He feels that many promising wrestlers often become discourged when coming to high school because the com- petition is so much stiffer. The wrestlers worked out everyday in an highly intensi- fying practice. Before starting practice at 3 p.m., the wrestlers were required to run 20 journeys throughout the school, jump rope 500 times, and climb the rope five times. This was followed by stretches and then coach's comments by Shoop and assistant Dave Roether. Wrestling is a tough, sometimes grueling sport and Shoop stated that wrestling is a sport that you work at all week for six minutes of per- formance. The future looks bright for our wrestling pro- gram. Shoop expects an im- provement in the upcoming years with new students from the junior highs and 13 returning lettermen.

Freshman Meagan own stood out in several snts. rhe girls put in long hours irking to perfect each utine. In compulsory ;ets, each gymnast com- ting has a specific set Jtine that must be per- med. Many gymnasts did )re than one event in each ;et. Bott said, When we d a meet coming up, eryone got down and acticed hard. The team was not only a group of talented athletes, but close friends as well. The first few meets were away and the team had a lot of fun eating out and taking a break from setting up and taking down the equipment. According to Bott, We had a lot of laughs together: We all stick together; being close to your teammates always makes the sport fun. The season started out with a home win which boosted the team's spirit. They continued to win but ended up the year with a los- ing streak. Gymnastics, according to Souply, is fun, because it's not boring like some sports. You get to do different things, and when you get bored in practice, you can switch to another event. Schofield, Spoon, and Brown were all winners in district competition. Schofield placed fourth in beam. Spoon ended up with a fifth in vault while Brown came in eighth in vault. Coach Kathy Tebbe, sum- ming up the season, said, I saw a lot of improvement. Our team had a lot of depth and although we weren't outstanding, the team was strong all around.

Gymnastics 197 Rollercoaster season full of highs and lows To say the Findlay High baseball season was like a rollercoaster ride at Cedar Point would be the understatement of the year. The Trojans started by los- ing their first four games and dropping five of their first six. Things then started going right for the Trojans who reeled off eight wins in their next ten games. As the record then stood, the Tro- jans were two games above .500 with an 8-6 mark. But after bowing out of the tournament to Bowling Green, a five game skid took place which left the Trojans with a final mark of 8-11. Sophomore Barry Pry stated, I thought we had good team spirit, we just got off to a slow start and we happened to finish the same way. The highlight of the season had to be the victory against Marion at Marion. This marked the first win for any Trojan team against Marion in the last four years. When we beat Marion on their own field we were play- ing as well as anyone in the state; I'll never forget that game, said senior second baseman Chad McClellan. As well as battling the op- position the team was also faced with inexperience. Among the nine starters five were underclassmen, three juniors, and two soph- omores. It was the seniors though that led the way for the Trojans both offensively and defensively. Three year starter Mc- Clellan led the team in hit- ting with a .397 average and was second in runs batted in with 15. McClellan also col- lected post season honors by being named to the all Buckeye Conference team and the All-Ohio team. Larry Helms, a senior left fielder, led the team in runs batted in with 19 and hit .309. Brian Puchta and Mark Boes, senior pitchers. showed leadership by c lecting six of the eight tej wins. With many young play( coming up possessing positive attitude, the futL for Findlay baseball loc bright.

A junior varsity team was add- ed to help give young players experience at the high school level. The team, consisting of freshmen and sophomores, started slow but picked up speed as the year went on. Ending the year the young Trojans finished 1-8, a somewhat deceiving record because many close ball games were lost. Leading the team was sophomore John Rice com- piling a .500 batting average as well as doing most of the pitching. Freshman Doug McClain led the team in home runs with two as well as hitting .500. Fellow freshman Briai Blanton also hit well finishin; the year with a .471 mark. With many strong player coming up and valuable e perience being gained, th future of Findlay baseba looks bright. 200 Baseball BOYS JV BASEBALL front, from the left, Gus Vargo.

The 3,200 relay team of Missy Freel, Laura Anning, San- dy Fleming, and Heather Creel ran the distance in 10:20.73 for a first place finish in the Buckeye. There were two second place finishes, those by Jenny Wachter in the 300 low hurdles and Freel in the 800 meters. The Trojans finished in fourth place overall.

Sprouse takes second, third in state meet The team had another ;reat year by going indefeated in dual meets ind as usual was very strong n the field events. Junior phenom Dave Jprouse won Buckeye Con- ference championships in the shot and discus and went on to the State cham- pionships to place second in the shot put with a school record heave of 58 feet and 8 inches and also got third in the discus by tossing the disc 166 feet and 7 inches. Pole vaulter Ken McBeath took his third straight Buckeye first by clearing thirteen feet. Jeff Marshall ran a 40.34 time in the 300 low hurdles to take a BC second and Todd Ward took second in the 3200. Zack Neds, a member of the second place 3200 relay team reflected back on the year, saying, As usual our field events helped carry us through an undefeated season in dual meets, but intense inter- team competition in both sprints and distance running did a lot in completing a very good team.

Ken Laube takes a good lead, and, to the immediate left, Jeff Marshall heads the com- petition in the high hurdles. Underclassmen pace team to 11-5 record Being led by a majority of underclassmen, the 1985 boy's tennis team finished with an impressive 11-5 record. But the lack of up- perclassmen did not hurt this squad. Out of the seven members of the team only one ended the season with a losing record. Junior Bob Cook, who played second singles, end- ed with an incredible team leading record of 23-5. Todd Stiles and Doug Hosey, number two doubles, also ended with excellent records of 21-7 and 18-7 respectively. Wit h this much talent the team had the potential to do well and they did, taking first in the Napoleon tournament and second at the Buckeye Conference Championships. At Buckeye, Cook at 2 singles as well as Scott Hehr and Keith Fulkerson at 2 doubles took first places. Team captain Chris Weaver lost his first match at Buckeye. Weaver who had a rough season playing some very tough opponents at the 1 singles position went 15-11 for the season, But he did have an im- pressive showing at sec- tionals as did the 1 doubles team of Todd Stiles and Doug Hosey and Cook at 2 singles. All four went 3-1 and fell just short of going on to district competition. starting in the top left hand anci moving clockwise, Chris Weavei demonstrates his powerful forehand, Keith Fulkerson chips the ball over the net, Scott Hehi makes a return, Amilio Soli come; down after a smash, and, Doug Hosey reaches for a low ball.

In sectionals Findlay killed St. Ursula and then lost a tough game to Maumee in districts. Although they did not have a spectacular season as a team, many of the girls excelled as individuals, receiving numerous awards for their talents. Susan Barnhill received the batting trophy with her batting average of .397 as well as receiving the most improved players award. Senior Joy Woolley was named the team's most valuable player. Besides the team awards several girls were also honored by the Conference. Coach Wohlgamuth said, The best moment of the season was when the girls on the team received the all-Buckeye Conference awards. Three girls made first team; Wooley for in- field, Sally Martin for out- field, and Anne Newton catcher. Barnhill made s ond team infield. The Findlay softball te. was not only strong in dividual talent but also leadership.

Not only do they keep accurate sta- tistics and scores, they also help create morale for the team. A sports helper decorates the lockers of their respec- tive team and more often than not, cheers as much as anybody for their team. Wrestlerette Beth Miller says, Being a wrestlerette is a lot of w ork, but there is also a lot of fun that goes along with all the work.

Sports Helpers 211 Cheerleaders add spirit to atliletic events This year's cheerleading squad has been like a family, said varsity cheerleader Heather Greeno. Asking the cheerleaders their reasons for becoming a cheerleader, they all had the same answer: For team and school support and to cheer the players on. The cheerleaders received numerous awards for their ability to show their spirit. In summer camp at Kenyon College, the varsity squad earned first in pom pom competi- tion, two spirit keys, four spirit gram awards and four blue ribbons. The junior varsity received two spirit keys, two spirit gram awards, three blue ribbons and one red ribbon. They also placed first in pom pom, first runner-up in junior varsity divi- sion and seventh in statewide competition. Winning all of these awards would make a person feel on top of the world, and it makes one wonder if the cheerleaders ever had any bad times during their cheerleading year. Candy Kane said her worst timi during cheerleading was when shi was at camp and fell off the shoulde stand which caused the team to los that competition. Greeno had th Marion fans pick a fight with her i the bathroom. Obviously, ou cheerleaders do have their goo and bad times, but getting up to th top takes a lot of dedication even it means not being able to pai ticipate in another sport says Ar dra Ritchey. Greeno explains tha cheerleading is something yo have to want to do! While Kane ac mits it's a lot of fun but a lot c work is necessary to be able to g€ along with everyone.

J AV Cheerleaders 213 students prove there's more than team sports So often when high school sports are mentioned, peo- ple immediately think of foot- ball, baseball, basketball, etc., the obvious team sports; but there is a whole other side to the word. High school sports do not have to be official things set up by the school. They can be sports that are participated in just to relax and have fun. Whether they were individual or team non-school sports, the members of Findlay High School were quite active in leisure sports. Many individual leisure sports are pictured around these pages but the one non- school team sport shown is the Findlay water polo team. This team was the first one organized in Findlay for about a decade. Inspired by the USA water polo team in the 1984 summer Olympics, several Findlay High School team members organized the team. Coached by Rock Snow the team got a late start on the season but worked hard and by the end of the season had made a respectable name for themselves. The team traveled around the state playing many dif- ferent teams, some of which were contenders for the state title. The team even played the Ohio State Varsity girls team who had been the NCAA Champions the year before and Findlay won on a las second goal. 214 Leisure Sports r j ' KJU Starting in the upper left hand corner Jenny McGuire demonstrtes her skill in the steeplechase, Eric Neff flies through the air on his 3-wheeler, Kelly Mason practices her figure skating, Todd Wachter takes advantage of a warm spring day by throwing a frisbee during lunch, Brian Miller, Doug Sprouse, Kevin Eartie, Missy Freel, and Becky Mattson enjoy the rapids during a rafting trip, Annette Bentz concen- trates on the pins so she can bowl a strike.

There are several organizations where hard-working students, with this goal in mind, work together to make Findlay High a better place to go to school. Whether its student council holding a dance to raise money for our school, patient peer tutors helping students with schoolwork problems or exchange students giving a little foreign flavor to Findlay High, each member of each organization is a part of a group that wants F.H.S. to be the best it can be.

Council ii represents students With 19 members from each class, the student council is busy all year round providing a more positive image between the school and community. Each class council consists of four officers to represent them as a whole and all of them together make up the executive board. Each class has certain obliga- tions to be met before the year's end. Some include such things as raising money, getting involved in social events, planning dances, conducting regular meetings, choosing class rings and gradua- tion products and organizing the prom. Some events involve the com- munity like the Homecoming, adopting families on holidays and hosting senior citizen lunches.

Some of his responsibilities are organizing the executive board meetings, making sure the class coun- cils represent student concerns and generally meeting the students' needs. Scott says this has been a new ex- perience for him and he has learned many new things and has had fun doing it! He feels he has, as the president, fill- ed the position 110% because he has listened to the students and found out what they want and has opened stu- dent council more to everyone who wants to get involved. If he could change anything, he'd first change the division between the academic and shop wing so everyone could get involved together. Scott says student council is fun and everyone should get involved with the school's activities! Tim Lauth tries to make Andrea Clinger look like she's enjoying putting up the bulletin for a dance.

Student Council 219 NHS president is active Senior Ruth Mahler's activities ex- tend far beyond the call of duty at FHS. Not only does she work hard to main- tain her above 3.5 grade point average and keep the customers of Thomas Jeweler's satisfied, Ruth is also presi- dent of the Blue and Gold Chapter of National Honor Society. Ruth was elected to this position after the spring inductions of 1984. I thought I could do a good job and wanted to be involved, Ruth com- mented. The fact that both her brother and sister were active NHS members years before only added to her determination. Active duties of NHS president are many and varied according to Ruth. She is in charge of running meetings, organizing open house, the blood- mobile, freshman parent night as well as acting as liaison between ad- ministrators and students. When an event needs to be organized, they all look to NHS for help. Ruth was concerned over the year long dispute which arose over th manner in which members wer selected. Thanks to a change, a ne' selection process is in order and prot lems are hopefully solved. The ne' process is more fair because it ir forms the teachers exactly how activ a student is. In closing Ruth emphasized that th honor society exists to recogniz scholarship, leadership, service an character. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY, front, from the left, Ruth Mahler. Amy Browne.

Volunteers help in media center The media helpers are the student volunteers who work in the library and media center. Each period two students are scheduled in the library area and one student in the media area. These students assist others in locating and checking out materials, checking in and shelving returned material, selling newspapers, and performing various clerical functions according to their skills and interest. Two primary responsibilities each period are the distribu- tion of audio visual equipment and taking the library list to the study hall teachers. Starting above and moving clocl(wise, Jeff Johnston delivers a TV to a classroom, Tim Brannon checks out books for Jeff Depuy and Mike Mann, and, Mrs. Lucille Willford and Debbie Hutton work together to check out materials for students. Media Center Helpers 223 Exchange students enjoy new experiences abroad This year we hosted three exchange students: Coni Furler, Javier Freile, and Ann-Christin Niskanen. Javier, who is from Ecuador, said that school is considerably more dif- ficult at home than here. Coni, from Switzerland, is enjoying her lighter school schedule (five days a week instead of the Swiss six-day school week). Ann-Christin, from Sweden, says she will have to make up a year of school- ing when she returns home since her year here will not count toward graduation. When Javier, Coni, and Ann-Christin return to their homes, they will have had the experience of living in another country and learning new customs. Foreign exchange once again helps to break down prejudices and let peo- ple learn about other countries through a student's eyes. EXCHANGE STUDENTS, from the left, Cornelia Furler, Javier Freile.

The groups are divided into a variety of businesses and each designs, makes and sells a product. Individuals compete with each other and in groups to sell the most. An area trade fair is held every year in the spring. A chance to get together Campus Life offers teenagers a chance to get together and discuss topics like school, parents and peer pressure. This group stresses spiritual qualities which give students a positive outlook on life. The group meets every Monday in various member's homes. One Monday a month they roller skate at Ohio Skate.

Without the businesses and patrons who sponsor The Trojan, we could not have brought you the year in review. As you browse through the advertisements, remember these people who have helped bring the past to the present. The Trojan Yearbook would like to add a special thank you to these fine advertisers.

Tradititon nany wild and crazy things we did throughout the school year will forever be a part of the memories we will cherish after leaving Findlay High. Along this line, the seniors once again came through with their traditional, senior pranks. But what would the end of the year be like without that senior spark of spirit? Or the participation of so many students in events like Spirit Week with students coming to school in wild garb to show their spirit? 274 Closing sually the last two weeks of school are senior goof-off days, but this year was different. The rumors that seniors would have to take final exams were spread around school, like all the other years, but this year it became a reality. Despite the many letters of protest, the seniors had to realize that there was nothing they could do about the exams except to accept them. All through this, the sophomores and juniors protested along with the seniors. This shows the support FHS students have for one another. Our school not only provides a place to learn but a place to relax and have fun with friends. Starting on the opposite page and moving clockwise, Buddha Buddies Todd Wachter and Ken Laube care for the group's donated tree, Greg DeRodes and Traci Applegate hold a con- versation in the hall, Kenny Paul shows off his Ghostbusters car along with Dave Shultz and Kevin Early, Laurie Cleary, Tim Brooker and Mr. Bruce Patterson join together to melt sterling silver in jewelry class, Leila McDougal listens for the ninth period bell, and, Tom Lonyo, Keith Decker and Jim Mericle look for some company before a football game. Closing 275 u any activities kept students busy throughout the school year. By spring, most of the organizations responsible for these activities were wrapping things up. Students were honored at banquets for their participation and hard work in certain activities, showing how much they were appreciated. Looking back, these students can feel a sense of pride and accomplishment for the skills, talents, and knowledge they have contributed to Findlay High school. Starting above and moving clockwise across news, Scott Lewis takes a break from band, both pages, the cheerleaders try their hand at Daphnae Dunson and Tricia Gallagher smile for painting the windows for Spirit Week, Anne the camera, and. Scoff Kunkleman tries to get Gasior, finds a moment to study in the glass around school on his crutches, hallway. Rick Hoffman catches up on the latest arm weather gives everyone spring fever and this year was no exception. Things like going on vacation and summer fun began to take control of our thoughts. Along with our excitement for spring came flashes of restlessness in class, especially in study halls. But we satisfied our boredom by sitting o utside with our friends during lunch periods and enjoying the sun. Most of the teachers understood what we were going through and put up with our lack of attention and our sudden bursts of energy. Closing 277 Memories ihe student body is like one, big family. A family that learns, laughs, lives and most of all sticlcs together. Whether we are the fan club at a sports event showing our Trojan spirit or an audience at a school play, we support each other. One word to describe the student body as a whole is friendly. At every corner, down every hallway, you see someone you know. The friendships made here are forever and the memories of the good times you have had with these friends will stay with you a lifetime. ow is the time for seniors to move on to bigger and better things. Even though many will go off to college or move away from family and friends, they will not soon forget these people who were so special to them in their lives. Findlay High, which has literally become a second home to many students, has prepared us for the real world. It is now up to us to use our knowledge to make the most of it. Pictured above and moving counterclockwise across both pages, Andra Ritchey and David Manley lounge outside the student council of- fice, Kristi Emer brushes her hair between classes, Jim Steffen dares to try a cafeteria hot dog. Brad Coppes helps paint scenery for Drama Club, Kent Tischler is treated by Doc Slough following a jarring play, Megan Dillon and Emily Zahler enjoy a good joke at half time, and, Caroline Dahl keeps track of the Homecoming floats before the parade. Closing 279 FHS m m mV will become a part of your past but will always stay alive in your memory. As time progresses, the routine things may be forgotten but the special moments are sure to be remembered. Not only the teachers, friends and other students but the school itself which has become a part of your life as you have become part of the school. acknowle£iements Office staff, JoAnn Martin, Myra Tabb, Mary Ann Eller, Loretta Core, Mary Cain, Sue Kingsley; Administratioi Dr. C.
