CONTENTS Opening Faculty .... Activities . . Sports Sophomores Juniors . Seniors Closing 2 - Table Of Contents Six hundred and forty-three stu- dents assembled on August 30 to make their mark upon Forest Hills High School and its surrounding communities. A distinctive spirit emerged as each individual sought to attain his own pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. As the pictures and copy on the following pages suggest, the student body of 1977- 78 pursued their lives with unique style and zest. Students sought to discover themselves and their ca- pabilities in education, activities, and sports. Both faculty and ad- ministration as well as classmates aided in their search and shared in their achievements. Far Left: SENIORS Lisa Clement and Bill Myers proudly display their di- plomas.

In the building of their own rainbows, students found that nothing could be gained without hard work and determination. Individuals using their talents on their own or as members of a team devoted their energies toward a common purpose, bettering themselves while also improving the school. Whether in or outside the classroom, the student strove to attain the goals they had set.

Through the course of the year, students experienced a variety of emotions as they both succeeded and failed in their activities. The end of the rainbow with its pot of gold was not always easy to reach. For those who did not reach their goal came the satisfaction of achieving something they had really worked for. For those who failed, the initial disappointment has been replaced with the knowledge and wisdom that can only be gained from experience.

An outsider looking at the student body for the first time sees only a mass of people and fails to notice the individual student, as distinct and separate as the light rays producing a rainbow. Even from within, we sometimes see only the groups at Forest Hills - the junior jaycees, the band - and not the individuals composing these groups. Yet, these individuals make the school what it is. The merging of their personal dreams and goals, both immediate and future, shape the dreams and goals of the entire student body.

Reflections Of 10 - Faculty As the rainbow depicts the diversifi- cation in the colors of the spectrum, so too, the members of the faculty and ad- ministration reflect the diversification in learning opportunities available to the high school student. From preparing students for career choices within the actual classroom to acting as a coach or advisor for an extra-curricular activity, faculty members show an awareness of the needs of stu- dents. Learning takes place under a variety of cir- cumstances but perhaps, one of the best situations oc- curs when the faculty advisor's own interest or hobby is in common with that of his students. Besides contrib- uting practical knowledge, the teacher also helps the stu- dents gain insight into the complex problems of the day. The following pages show but a few examples of the di- versified learning opportunities open to the students of Forest Hills.

Board Reorganizes, Burkey Elected President 12-School Board At the December meeting the board of school directors re- organized and elected James A. Burkey as its new president. He succeeded Robert Chunta. Other officers elected were Rodney Fye, first vice-president; Robert Beyer, second vice presi- dent; Dorothy Ruddek, assistant secretary and Anthony Nastase, treasurer. Gilbert Caroff, who was re- tained as board solicitor, swore in three new board members, elected in the November general election. They included James L. White, Samuel Basile and Wilma Plummer. Meeting dates for the board were changed from the second Wednesday of each month to the first Monday. Meetings were held at 7:30 p.m. in the confer- ence room of the senior high school. Dr. Warren E.

Kent State University M.A. West Virginia University Principal Assumes Additional Position Along with numerous other duties, Edward Terek, high school principal, also assumed a posi- tion on a committee of the As- sociation of Secondary School Principals, dealing with student councils. As a member of this special committee which dealt with the functions and opera- tions of high school student councils in Pennsylvania, he gained valuable experience which 14-Principal 4? he hoped to utilize in the local school district. Sam Plummer, assistant prin- cipal, helped in the overall man- agement of the high school. He performed his usual chores of presenting morning announce- ments and taking care of at- tendance. He also assisted the principal in drawing up student schedules for the following year. Management of the monetary affairs of the school district was handled by the business man- ager Thomas Neff assisted by the secretarial staff of the busi- ness office. Among his duties was the purchasing of equipment for the cafeteria as well as all the various departments. The business office was also in charge of the bi-monthly pay- roll system for all school dis- trict employees. Right: Preparing bi-monthly checks for the school employees is Dee Roberts.

Dealing mainly with college information for seniors, the newsletter also covered the areas of student health and counseling for the entire student body. The newsletter, distributed in home- rooms at the end of each grading period, helped to enlighten stu- dents and parents on the activi- ties of the special services' de- partment which include guidance, nursing, social welfare and spe- cial education. 18 - Secretaries - Aides Staff Cut, Services Increase Quickly adjusting to the staff cut, the office aides and secretaries continued to provide an array of services for the student body and school personnel. The inconveni- ence created by the absence of an aide did not undermine the effi- ciency in the library or office and business continued there as usual. Handling everything from stu- dent attendance to the distribution of lunch tokens, the secretaries and aides formed the connecting link between the administration, par- ents and individual students.

Bottom Right: During an afternoon Orien- tal Cultures session, Walter Celmer reviews for an upcoming test. In an attempt to stimulate stu- dent interest, the history depart- ment agreed to sponsor field trips for its various classes. Anthony Turchetta, social studies depart- ment chairman, took several of his political science classes to the Cambria County courthouse in Ebensburg for a one-day visit. There they toured the various de- partments in the building and at- tended an actual trial. While in Ebensburg, students also visited the Cambria County jail and de- tention home. Helping to clarify students' ideas about city government, the trip also helped to alleviate the boredom that often occurs sitting in a classroom day after day.

To ease the scheduling problem several of the mini-courses were merged into one course. Also all mini-courses were twelve weeks in length instead of the six weeks of the past several years. The addition of Honors English, an accelerated class for the top ranking seniors resulted in the creation of several unique projects. Under the direction of Thomas Scaglione, students used their imaginations to write and produce several live radio shows for their classes. Mr. Scaglione was a substitute for Miss Fran Matvay who was on a year's leave of absence. Along with Mr. Scaglione, Bruce Penrod was also added to the staff. Mr. Penrod, a former teacher at junior high, taught Expo II-Research and Literature of Prejudice. Right: Paul Yuhas discusses an assignment with a Broadway Mus- icals' class.

This remark of Pam Long echoed the sentiment of most advanced math students. There- fore, math teachers finally relented and allowed their trig and calculus clases to use calculators. The school board corroborated this de- cision with the purchase of twenty new Sr-40 calculators. With the aid of calculators, students were able to master the concepts of advanced mathematics unburdened by out- dated charts and tables. The science courses remained basically the same as in past years. In relating classroom instruction to the natural environment sur- rounding them, students gained the ability to make and support sound, logical judgements. Bero, Robert - Johnstown B.S.

Students Tout Spain Approval of the school board at the December meeting cleared the way for finalization of plans con- cerning a trip to Spain by interest- ed students of the Spanish classes. While most students were spending Easter vacation with their families, sixteen Spanish students spent March 17 through March 26 abroad. Escorted by Donna Gram- ling, Spanish instructor, four sen- iors, four juniors and eight fresh- men embarked on a tour through the Spanish countryside with stops in the cities of Seville, Cordoba, Madrid and Toledo. Christmas card sales, bake sales, sub sales and car washes were a- mong the many activities conduct- ed by the group to help defray ex- penses for the trip. PUERTO RICO As ( lose 'lix ;is man will!

The course, Notehand, lasted one semester and was under the tu- telage of Diane Gvozdich. Students were taught basic shorthand and the most effective way of taking notes from written or lectured ma- terial. They were also taught how to prepare notecards for research papers. The course was well receiv- ed, especially by the college bound seniors. Another innovation came to the typing classes when several sen- iors were permitted to teach under- classmen basic typing skills. The experience gave the girls, who were planning to major in business ed in college , a taste of what awaits them in the future. Above: About to give dictation to a notehand class is Diane Gvozdich.

Indiana University of PA Christmas Decoration Constructed Among the Christmas decora- tions at the senior high was added a new look by the industrial arts department. A large wooden cross fitted with colorful lights was con- structed and placed above the en- trance of the school during the ho- liday season. Originating with the industrial art classes, the annual arts show took place during the early part of May. Creativity was a major factor in the displays since the students followed no set patterns. On dis- play for the all day event were both wood and metal projects. Also the homemaking department exhibit- ed various kinds of wearing ap- parel made by the home ec stu- dents. And finally Mr. Damico's art classes displayed their original arts and crafts. 28 - Practical Arts m Band Director Appointed With the appointment of Char- les Cannin as senior high band di- rector, the vacancy on the musical staff by the spring resignation of Phillip Mollers was filled. In addi- tion to his former duties as junior high band director, Mr. Cannin al- so took charge of the senior high concert, stage and marching bands. The election of band officers and the participation of the concert band in the Christmas program were among several innovations initiated by Mr. Cannin. In cooperation with the band Sam Coco worked diligently with the various choral groups to pre- sent three concerts throughout the year. In the art department Albert Damico continued to display the students' art work in the show case.

Curriculum Revamped Interest in physical education classes took an upswing with a total revamping of the curriculum. For the first time, students were able to choose between life-time sports instruction or recreation classes. The flexibility of this concept gave students a wide var- iety of options, ranging from cross country skiing to ordinary softball. Adding electives to the required course relieved the monotony of routine gym classes while also giving students the chance to develop lifelong hobbies. Ac- cording to instructors Penny Mat- lin and Charles Sponsky, rea- ctions to the new set-up were good, with most students opting for the more unusual life-time sports of yoga, karate and bicycling. 30-Physical Education Matlin, Penny - RD 2 Windber B.S.

West Virginia University Soohy New Instructor Continuing to emphasize safety and prudence on Pennsylvania highways, the driver and safety education courses did not deviate from procedures taught in past years. The use of filmstrips, posters and other visual devices aided in preparing sophomores and juniors for whatever they might en- counter once they took to the roads. Although the course remained the same, the instructors did not. The retirement of William Lee at the end of last year resulted in his replacement by Joseph Soohy. Mr. Soohy previously taught physical education at the junior high school before being transferred here. c Above: Joseph Soohy is about to begin a driving lesson for two junior girls.

The water, depositing large quantities of mud on the front lawn, ripping apart the school parking lot and causing some water damage in the basement interior, created a heavier-than-usual workload for the custodial staff. Even so, the janitorial staff, along with some emergency help, managed to have the grounds and buildings in top shape for the opening of school in late August. The already-efficient kitchen staff seemed to improve in ef- ficiency as the year progressed. Since the initiation of the three 30-minute lunch periods last year, students found they spent more time standing in line than actually eating. This problem also occurred at the beginning of this year, but after a few months, shorter lines became evident and the students' complaints decreased.

Reflections Of 34-Activities Just as many colors comprise a rainbow, so too many activities embody the extra- curricular life of the high school student. From yearbook and newspaper editing and layout design, where students gain insight into their organizational abilities, to poise and com- munication skills achieved by a forensic speaker, and from personal satisfaction realized by helping others as a member of the humanitarian club to de- veloping talent as a member of one of the many musi- ical groups, Forest Hills offers a well-rounded group of activities. Students have the opportunity to be elected and ap- pointed to a variety of leadership roles when they serve as officers, chairmen or solo performers for these activities. In- volvement in extra-curricular activities is one of the best sup- plements to classroom learning. Activities-35 ertolino reigns at festivities At the second annual homecoming game, the hard hitting Rangers pleased the home-town spectators with a 10-6 victory over the Richland Rams. Clear skies permitted the over-flow crowd to witness the Ranger win as well as the crowning ceremony at half- time. Chris Bertolino, chosen by the student body to reign over the September 30 festivities, was crowned by Donna Price, last year's homecoming queen. Mem- bers of the court were seniors Cindi Kauffman, Cher- yl Schofield, Becky Giles and Judi Gdula. Immediately following the game, 300 spectators turned their attention to the high school gym where they rocked to the sounds of “Rider” for two hours. The queen and her court include Cheryl Schofield, Judi Cdula, Chris Bertolino, queen: Becky Giles and Cindi Kauffman.

This number and others were just some of the highlights of the an- nual contest held at Johnstown Vo-Tech on October 1. Besides performing routines in physical fitness, poise and appearance, each girl was required to pre- pare an original talent selection. Tama was named recipient of the Scholastic Achievement Award at the conclusion of the contest. In recognition, she recieved an engraved plaque and a $1000 scholarship to the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown. 4iss - 37 Left: Tama Werfel performs her talent, a piano solo, entitled Sum- mer of 42.” Above: The sketching of a clown to the tune of the En- tertainer ' is Sherie Stuver's talent selection.

Members of the hospital committee once again were active at the Christmas season when they visited the pediatrics' wards at area hospitals and presented gifts to the sick children to help brighten their hos- pital stay. Needy children of the area benefited from the Toys for Tots Drive in November held by HUM in con- junction with the Salix unit of the Salvation Army. To help carry out its financial commitments to fire relief and other charities, the organization sponsored the second annual Thanksgiving dance. In February a Valentine lollipop sale as well as a carnation sale were held to raise money for other charitable donations.

Pam Colosimo, 77 queen, did the crowning at the December 29 affair. In keeping with the holiday spirit, the council members spent the first week of December decorating the building for Christmas. In addition to the usual holly and tinsel, the council had the shop department construct a large illuminated cross which was hung in front of the building. In conjunction with various other clubs and organi- zations, the council participated in the WCRO Super- stars Basketball Contest in February, the purpose of which was to raise money for Muscular Dystrophy. Overall the FH students raised $940 for the worthy cause and placed Judy Pepoy, a junior on the Super- star team roster, a segment of the contest. The student council exchange program with other area schools was again carried out. 40 - Student Council Left: Snowball Queen and Court include (front) seniors Cheryl Schofield, Cindi Kauffman, Sandy Wilson, queen, and Becky Giles; (middle) juniors Sharon Casti, Michele Hillegas and Natalie McCall; (back) sophomores Lisa Gabany and Donna Prince.

Together with veteran junior mem- bers, they worked long hours during the summer and after school preparing for the year's sporting events. Since they jayvee football team had a limited schedule, the girls had little cheering to do during foot- ball season. However, they were kept busy during the basketball and wrestling seasons. Also as in the past the squad manned the concession stand at home var- sity football games as a means of obtaining funds for their jackets. This rookie year proved to give valuable experience to the girls who hope to move up to the varsity squad next year.

Laurence M. Ruth returned for his third year as producer and director of the musical. In an added di- mension to his job, Larry also served as the choreog- rapher. Selection of the cast was made in late February with rehearsals continuing nightly and on Saturdays for the next ten weeks. Since the cast was relatively small, it became neces- sary for the cast and crew to work closely on every as- pect of the production. This closeness emerged back- stage during performances in the tears and hugs which were shared by all and by the friendly atmo- sphere that pervaded everywhere during the show's three-day run.

Musical - 75 usical numbers delight audience It was evident by their laughter that the audience loved every minute of the musical, but most will agree that they found their greatest delight in the musical numbers. The Jester had them roaring when he team- ed up with the Minstrel and King for a rollicking trio entitled, The Minstrel, the Jester and I. For a touch of melancholy, in the second act, the Jester told of his father in the dance number Very Soft Shoes. The ultimate heroine. Princess Winifred, made a dripping entrance from the moat and then went on to dazzle the audience with her lively renditions of Shy, The Swamps of Home, Song of Love and Happily Ever After. Harry and Larkin, two of the kingdoms many co- vert lovers, shared their dreams and hopes in In A Little While and Yesterday I Loved You. Beginning with the prologue Many Moons Ago and continuing throughout the play and up until the last strains of the finale was the epic line, A genuine princess is exceedingly rare. Hoping to learn the answer to the impending test to be given the fol- lowing day, the Minstrel (Bill Stein) discusses the matter with the Wizard (Mike Foust).

Musical - 77 amada Inn, Site Of Annual Event Approximately 110 couples gathered at the Somerset Ramada Inn on the evening of May 5 for the annual jun- ior-senior prom. Although a light drizzle was falling as the couples arrived, it didn't seem to dampen any spirits as they stepped into the lush tropical courtyard where the formal was held. The Bay City Rollers' hit, The Way I Feel To- night, was chosen as the theme by the prom commit- tee. To contrast with the decor of the room, dark green and mint were selected as the colors for the program booklets and ribbons. As an added remembrance, each girl also received a silver heart necklace as a keepsake. After the invocation at 6:30, a full course dinner was served. In the interim before the dancing to Lexus, a rock group, at 9:00 P.M., Cover Studio was on hand to capture the magic moments on film.

Held on the football field, the fast- paced show of speed and skill pitted the students sports' superstars against the teachers. Included in the afternoon's events were shaving contests, obstacle courses and a slapshot-style foot- ball game using water balloons. Although the teachers eventually came out on top, the students did have their moments. In the second phase of competi- tion, the student superstars did what they do best, running over obstacles to the lunch line and eating as fast as possible. Having lathered the face of Pat Gruss with shaving cream, Renee Gallardy, blindfolded, attempts to shave him as referee Mike Bar- ton looks on. The superstars lost this phase of the contest and trailed the faculty by a point. Almost Anything Goes 83 Clowns are always a bit hit at a carnival.

With the area grade school students in mind, the carnival committee scheduled various events including a car- toon-show and a pet show. Since a steady rain fell the entire day, all booths were forced to set up in the gym and lobby. As in the past, each club was responsible for a booth and some of the attractions included a bake sale, dart throw, penny pitch, fish pond, bingo and concessions. Over the two-day period including Almost Anything Goes, a dance Friday night and the actual carnival on Saturday, the event raised over $950 which was used to help defray the cost of a new porta- ble sound system.

The faculty and entire stu- dent body were present for the event which was held in the football stadium. Scholastic, athletic and activity awards were pre- sented to seniors who excelled in all facets of school life. A special presentation was made midway through the program by Edward Terek, high school principal. He presented a special plaque to athletic director Frank Kozar, who was to resign at the end of the school term. The varsity club honored Mr. Kozar with the plaque for his efforts during his twelve year term as athletic director at Forest Hills.

After the class president, Doug Endler, gave the welcoming address, senior chorus members joined together in the singing of the Alma Mater and 'Tomorrow. Keynote addresses were then given by Barbara Peters and Tama Werfel, co-valedic- torians, and Pam Long, salutatorian. Dr. Warren Howard, superintendent, delivered a few remarks before turning over the program to Ed- ward Terek, high school principal. Mr. Terek then presented the class to board president James Burkey who presented the 203 graduates with their diplomas. At the conclusion of the two-hour ceremony, friends and relatives of the graduates gathered on the floor to express their congratulations to the class.

Beginning at 10:30 and continuing until 1:30 A.M. at the shool gymnasium, the dance-social provided the class of '78 with an opportunity to gather for one last fling. A buffet lunch was served with fried chicken, cold cuts, fresh fruit and all sorts of goodies. Soft drinks were also served. The party was the climax of a special evening and twelve years of formal education. All agreed that, although it was an enjoyable evening, it was sad to think this was the last time the class of '78 would be together.

Along with the usual full-color coverage in the opening section of the annual, spot color was incorporated throughout the book on divider pages. Divided into six sections, the book employed the various colors of the rainbow, in spot color, to open each segment which was distinctive in its own layout. Some graphics were again used to give some variation to the different sections. As in the past each division of the Forester was the re- sponsibility of a committee headed by a chairman. They selected pictures and wrote copy for their particular sec- tion. Committees included the faculty, activities, sports, seniors, juniors and sophomores. The editor's responsi- bility lay with the opening and closing sections as well as the divider pages. The 208-page fall edition of the Forester was complet- ed in mid-June and arrived at the latter part of August for distribution. 9to - Forester Working on the sports section, chairman Pam Long and Kim Roberts decide on some pictures to be used in the wrestling spread.

Reflections Of People in all walks of life attempt to reach the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Likewise the high school athlete strives for his pot of gold - the undefeated season or the setting of a new individual record. Sports provide a means of realizing team effort as well as an individual effort. From moving the bas- ketball down the court for a score to completing a double play on the baseball diamond, students have a need to work together. From pinning one's opponent on the wrestling mat, to breaking the school record in the high jump students excell in individual achievements. Participation in sports not only provides for learning physical skills but also provides opportunity for the athlete to acquire good sportsmanship and sound competitive effort.

Coif Wheeling Tourney Highlights Dismal Golf Season Highlighting a rather dismal season for the golf team was the capturing of first place in the Wheeling Tournament held at Westmont. Junior Paul Negy was high scorer followed by Jim Gove- kar, Mike Foust and Ken Rich. During its regualr season, the golfers were able to manage only two wins. Both of these victories were over Conemaugh Valley. The Ranger linkers lost both matches against Johnstown Vo-Tech, Conemaugh Township and Laurel Valley. The Ranger season then ended with a 2-6 record. Having maintained the best- point average for the season, Jim Govekar was named outstanding senior golfer. rC WW Golf Team: First Row: Roger Thomas, Mike Foust. Ken Rich and Jim Govkear.

Jeff, a 1000 yard rusher, broke the school record of career touchdowns with 25. The old record of 22 was set by Mike Pinkas of last year's squad. Jeff also received the Tribune-Democrat Athletic Scholarship Award for his outstanding play though- out the season. Ranger Offense Loaded, Defense Inexperienced When training camp opened in mid-August, 52 players showed up, 15 of whom were lettermen of the undefeated previous year squad. Coach Bailey boasted an ex- perienced backfield, good passing and an excellent field goal kicker, all in all a loaded offense. Defensively, however, Bailey had some worries. Of the previous year's iron-strong defense, only three players returned. And for the Rangers, a big part of the game has always been defense. We stress defense more than anything, stat- ed Bailey. So it appeared that the ensuing campaign would be one of rebuilding the defense. Offensively, the story was much brighter. With the Hostetler twins, Jeff and Joel, returning in the backfield, the running attack look- ed good. Also coming back was quarterback Ed Gregorich, a 6-2, 150 lb. senior who had 700 yards passing the year before. With a good running onslaught coupled with a super passing at- tack, Coach Bailey figured to have a good balanced offense. Offensively the upcoming sea- son looked bright. Defensively, a question mark. Football - 103 Right: With clipboard in hand head coach Don Bailey intently watches the of- fense in action.

Rangers Earn Possession Of Mainline Gridiron Trophy In its traditional season opener, the Ranger eleven defeated arch- rival Portage 15-7. The win was the third in a row over the Mustangs and earned the Rangers permanent possession of the Mainline Grid- iron Trophy presented by the Por- tage Area Jaycees. In this initial contest, Jeff Hos- tetler turned in a brilliant 226-yard offensive performance, rushing 187 yards on 31 carries and grab- bing off a pair of passes for anoth- er 39 yards. For the season Jeff eventually went over the 100 yard mark in offense and captured the district scoring title with a season high of 92 points. Another outstanding offensive back was quarterback Ed Grego- rich who threw for 1,096 yards, ranking in the higher percentage in the district. The season ended at Windber with a bomb threat prior to the kickoff, followed by a disappoint- inge 20-13 loss for the Rangers. The loss was more disappointing and frustrating since the Rangers have only managed two wins over the Ramblers in the past twelve years. However the 6-3 record did give Coach Bailey his third win- ning season. 104 - Football SEASON RECORD Won - 6 Lost - 3 FH Opp. Portage 15 7 Central Cambria 27 0 Somerset 14 16 Westmont 9 6 Richland 10 6 Cambria Heights 30 7 Conemaugh Township 8 14 Conemaugh Valley 42 20 Windber 13 20 Left: Dropping back to pass in the Conemaugh Valley contest.

Kris Mickle and Cheryl Mehall were the outstanding girl harriers. Kris placed sixth at districts and in the top half at the state meet while Cheryl came in tenth at the district meet. The 5-5 record of the boys' cross country squad was highlighted with a fourth place showing at the all-conference meet with Jon Strayer taking first and Doug Yamrose placing sixth.

In the opening game against Ferndale the jayvee quintet lost a squeaker in overtime 33-28. How- ever, they were victorious in the next four starts and appeared on their way to a winning season. But they lost eight of their last ten en- counters and showed a season rec- ord of six wins against nine losses, the first losing season in some time. Sophomore Sherry Burkey was high scorer. She tallied 104 mark- ers with 41 field goals and 22 fouls. Scoring 72 points for the season and taking runner-up scoring honors was junior Tammy Stone. She made 25 shots from the floor and 22 free shots. Linda Cronauer made good 30 from the field and four free throws for a total of 64 points, third high for the little Rangerettes Left: Attempting a shot from beneath the basket, Mary Ellen Hughes forces ball above the outstretched fingers of her Viking adversary.

JV Girls Basketball - 111 Grapplers, Under New Coach, Post A 4-9 Season Record Although the grapplers won three of their last four matches, they still showed a losing season with a 4-9 record. Under new coach Bruce Penrod, the team had high hopes for a good season, but they got off to a bad start, losing their first three en- counters. Top scoring honors went to jun- ior Tim Eppley who wrestled in the 132 weight class. He had a 8-4-1 card which included one pin and seven decisions. Posting a 7-5 mark, senior Jeff Wirick of the 112 lb. division, cap- tured runner-up scoring honors. Wrestling in the 138 lb. cate- gory, junior Monty Hoffman showed two pins and five decisions in his 7-6 card, good for third. Seniors Nate Manges (6-6-1) and Dave Simanski (5-8) both had five pins each among their wins. Joel Hostetler (155 weight class), with a season record of 6-6, was the only grappler to win at the sec- tionals” and go to the district com- petition where he was eventually eliminated from competition. With some good jayvee competi- tors on the way, the coach is look- ing for better days ahead. Above: Countering a switch attempt.

Tom Singer took over the reins of the little grapplers and was im- pressed with the winning season. Three grapplers exhibited fine records. Rick Lang who wrestled in the 155 weight division, had an un- defeated season. In his 9-0 card he showed seven pins and two deci- sions. Greg Eppley posted a 9-0-1 chart with three pins and six de- cision wins. Finally Mark Yakicic of the 138 lb. category had seven pins and two decisions in his 8-3 record. The squad was small, only six grapplers, but with the year's ex- perience the young grapplers should be the mainstay of the squad next year.

Mark made 71% of his free throws, making 105 of 147 at- tempts. Mark's high game for the 27 games in which he played was 23 markers in the West- mont game. Cagers Stage Strong Comeback, Finish Season With 15-12 Mark After losing seven of their first 11 games, the cagers made a strong comeback in the second half of the season by winning seven of ten games and closed out the regular season with a 11-10 mark. In post season playoffs, the Rangers fared better by posting a 4-2 record and finished the season with an over-all record of 15 wins and 12 losses. Considering that there were only two returning lettermen on the squad, most will agree that the season was a successful one. Top scorer for the Ranger quintet was junior Kevin White who had a total of 392 points in the 26 games in which he participated. He scored 154 from the floor and 84 via the foul line, showing an average of 15 points per game in overall play. Runner-up scoring honors went to senior Ed Gregorich who tossed in 137 buckets and 90 fouls for a total of 364 tallies, a average of 14 points per game. Another junior Mark Hull with 351 markers (123 field goals and 105 fouls) was third high scorer. His average was 13 tallies per game. Mark played in all 27 games. Finally Joe Jones, a sophomore, who saw limited action in the first few games scored 246 points in 18 games, a little better than ten points per game. Seniors Pat Gruss with 279 points and Bill Myers with 129 tallies rounded out the scoring for the Rangers.

Sophomores Dominate Scoring In Jayvee's 12-8 Season Record Posting a 6-4 record in both halves of the season, the little Rangers finished the 20-game sea- son with a 12-8 mark. Under the coaching of Arthur Burkett, the sophomore-domi- nated team played consistent ball for most of the season. Several of their losses went down to the final minute of the game. Scoring almost 100 points over his closet teammate, sophomore Tim Kakabar took top honors in scoring for the jayvees with 264 points. He tossed in 100 from the field and another 64 from the foul line in the 17 games in which he participated giving him an average of 15.5 points per game. Another sophomore Mark Gal- laher made good 52 shots from the floor and 64 free throws, giving him a total of 168 markers. He was second high scorer who played in all 20 contests, showing an average of 8.4 tallies per game. Junior Don McCrory came in third with a total of 163 markers. He made 63 buckets and 37 fouls in posting an average of 8.6 points per game. All three top scorers saw some limited action in a few varsity games during the season. 118-JV Basketball Hampered by a Windber opponent. Tim Kakabar misses an easy layup.

With runners on first and third Hunting- don's Ed McEven singled to left cen- ter to give his team the district championship. Mark Hampton led the losers with a single and double and knocked in two runs. In all, 11 errors were charged in the game, six of these by the Rangers. Ron Secary was saddled with the loss. In regular season competition the Rangers showed a 7-6 record. Duane Hillegas led the Rangers in all departments. He had 25 hits in 61 at bats, giving him an average of .409, high for the Rangers. His 18 runs and 21 RBI's were also high for the team. Senior Florian Perich averaged .387 with 19 hits in 49 AB's. Among his 19 hits were two home runs and two doubles. His 16 runs-batted-in was second high on the Ranger squad. Junior Jim Perracchino with a .369 average was third high. Rounding out the top hitters was senior Randy Smay with a .365 average. In his 19 hits, he had a grand slam home run. The Rangers were unable to com- plete their regular season games due to inclement weather.

Sprinters Fail To Produce As Thinclads Post 2-6 Chart Showing only two wins against six losses, the Ranger thinclads posted their second losing season in twelve years. Injuries, illness, bad weather and the lack of sprinters were the major factors causing the losing season according to head coach Pete Gdula. The only bright spot in the dismal season was a new school record set in the 2 mile relay. There was no one who qualified for the State Meet. Coming closest for this distinc- tion was Wayne Bailey, who placed third in the Districts. As the season progressed, there was continued improve- mend in the field events but the sprinters didn't live up to pro- mise and this definitely hurt the Ranger's chances of having a winning season. Completing an outstanding high school track season was senior Jon Strayer who re- ceived the senior award for boys' track. Above: In the Windber meet Pete DiMarino com- petes in the long jump.

Al- so competing at the state meet was the 440 relay team includ- ing Jan Ostrosky, Judi Gdula, Tammy Dolan, Chris Colosi- mo and alternate Wendy John- son. Although the girls failed to bring home a trophy, they found the experience enjoyable and worthwhile. In regular season competi- tion the Rangerette track team sported an 8-2 record, a repeat performance of last year's record. They lost to Greater Johnstown at the opening meet and to Johnstown Vo-Tech to- ward the end of the season. At the Greater Johnstown In- vitational Meet, the girls placed fourth with nine schools com- peting.

Girls' Track-125 Inexperience Plagues Teams, Post Identical 0-8 Records Showing identical records of 0-8, the Ranger and Rangerette tennis teams did not fare too well in their initial season. Inex- perience was the big factor in the poor showing. Also all the matches were played away giv- ing the opponents a home court advantage. Greg Nalepa, recipient of the senior award for tennis, showed a 6-2, 6-0 victory at Westmont to lead the Rangers. He also teamed up with junior Tom Marker for a doubles vic- tory in the finale at Indiana. Freshman Eric Layton was the only other singles winner with a 6-2, 6-1 decision at Bishop McCort.

Federal money has been used in purchasing equipment and sup- plies, for transportation to and from recreational sites and for cur- riculum and personnel develop- ment activities. Special activities included table tennis, badminton, judo-karate, bowling, cycling, skiing, swim- ming, horseshoes, hunter educa- tion, yoga, archery, fishing and flycasting. High school instructors were Charles Sponsky and Penny Mat- lin, physical education teachers. The program was under the direction of Dr. Robert Anderson, assistant superintendent, and Paul Robinson, federal programs co- ordinator.

Reflections Of Just as the rainbow is a bit hazy at its origin, so too, are the sophomores a bit misty as they begin their high school career. From getting accustomed to new schedules and routines to making new friends, from be- coming involved in sports' activities and class projects to becoming accustomed to a new environ- ment, sophomores learn methods necessary for proper adjustment to senior high. Sophomore year gives the student a chance to learn from upperclassmen, to associate with them in activities, to compete with them and to emulate them. As we follow the rainbow, we see it brighten as it progresses, as do soph- omores who gain more self-confidence and more self-reli- ance as the year goes on. They must realize that they must bide their time and accept things as they are, knowing that their day is yet to come. Their pot of gold is still a few years ahead. Sophomores-131 Sophomore Doug Miller prepares to do some welding on his metal shop project. Metal shop was one of several elctives which were avail- able to sophomores upon entering senior high. electives geared to student's needs As in past years, the incoming sophomores were faced with the problem of scheduling and selecting courses which would best suit their needs. In the language curriculum they had a choice of German or Spanish. The commercial field offered business exploratory or personal typing, depending on whether the sophomore wanted to enter the aca- demic field or the business education area. For those interested in the practical arts, home economics, wood shop, metal shop or mechanical drawing were offered. Also available as one of the alternatives was art class. These electives were geared to the academically- minded students as well as those interested in busi- ness or for those who preferred the general course.

Although some clubs did not admit sophomores until the latter part of the year, it was not uncommon to see a group of sophomores helping out at a Humanitarian Club party for the retarded or cheering at a pep rally. Quite a few sophomores took an active part in the ski club activities. Tenth grade band and chorus members didn't seem to mind the long hours after school, spent perfecting their routines or the long and tiring practice for the Christmas and Spring Concerts. Sophomores exhibited the spirit of wanting to be involved and proved to the upperclassmen their inter- ests in school activities. Prior to boarding a bus for a ski trip to Blue Knob, several sophomores model their ski outfits. They include Sherry Cooney, Bob Hinderliter, Mark Gallaher and Lisa Gabany.

Of the dozen or so sophomores who played on the football squad, Joe Jones proved to be a valuable as- sest at tight end and showed great promise for the up- coming gridiron seasons. Jones also managed to make the first team of the basketball quintet and proved he could compete with the veterans. Sophomore girls made a good showing with the jayvee cagerettes. Sherry Burkey was the top scorer for the little Rangerettes and she also saw some action with the varsity squad as well. Quite a few sophomores participated in both boys' and girls' track competition as well as cross country where they made a good showing. All in all the sophomores did get involved in the athletic program and many showed promise of lead- ing the Rangers to future championships in the vari- ous sports' events.

It proved a good means for the sophomores to get ac- qainted with the upperclassmen. dances offer means of relaxation In keeping with the upperclassmen, sophomores al- so felt the need for some relaxation and social activi- ties after a long week of school and study. A night out at the movies, an evening of roller skating, or a Coke and hamburger with friends, all proved to be good ways to relieve tensions and meet new friends. As each club took their turn at sponsoring dances, sophomores also enjoyed the opportunity to socialize with classmates while dancing to the music of various local bands. Some dances were semi-formal, such as the Snowball Dance held during the Christmas holi- day season by the student council, while others were informal with casual dress. Such school-sponsored events made the sophomores feel more a part of the student body and their school.

Some of the activities included the intramural sports' program in which the various classes compet- ed with each other in such events as basketball, vol- leyball and softball. Also with the life-time sports in full swing some sophomores spent their leisure time participating in ping pong and badminton. Of course, there were those who used their spare time to become more proficient in some cultural en- deavor, such as band and forensics, by practicing. Others might be found in the library catching up on their reading. Naturally many just remained in home- rooms to chat with friends and exchange the latest school gossip. And finally a few just dozed off for a while in back of the room dreaming of an upcoming holiday or the weekend, when they would be free of the boring routine of the school day.

The textbook frequently gave way to visual aides, such as colorful slides of flowers and insects. The use of the microscope in various assignments was an in- teresting change for many. But one of the most interesting parts of the biology course was disecting. Seeing the specimen on the tray in front of them, after learning about it from the book, helped the tenth graders in their study of the animal kingdom. The classes were able to complete approximately seven projects, beginning with earth- worm. Most of the first-year biologists approached this first project with some reluctance. But they soon became accustomed to the foul smelling formalde- hyde, the chemical used to preserve the dead animals, and found that they could use the tweezers, razor blades and other disecting instruments with ease and a steady hand. The students were also required to draw a diagram of the specimen, labeling its main parts. The remaining projects included the clam, grasshopper, fish and finally the frog. The sophomores felt that their first time at disect- ing was a valuable learning experience.

Reflections Of Juniors, in a sense, have reached the crest of the rainbow in their high school educa- tional pursuits. Looking back, they reminisce the pitfalls of the sophomore year and looking ahead, they see their pot of gold coming closer. From receiving class rings and taking college entrance exams to planning and sponsoring the an- nual prom, from being elected to class offices and more prestigious positions in student activities to gain- ing recognition in school life, juniors function as a more integral part of high school. Juniors find themselves in a position where decision- making is important. By evaluating the past year and look- ing ahead to the next year, they hope to gain a sense of direction. Juniors, then, are in a position of setting goals to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Whether they were studying chemistry, participating in the driver ed program or attending a club meeting, the junior class found study halls and activity peri- ods well occupied. Therefore, they took advantage of outside activities like dances and sports' events to free themselves of the school day pressures and intellectual pursuits. They found these outside activities not only enjoyable but also relax- ing. After all, we all know what all work and no play makes Jack.

The writers were kept busy with assignments every month and several took charge of certain pages of the pa- per with regard to layout and edit- ing material used on the page. Jun- ior photographer John Varljen was a valuable asset to the staff with his picture taking, in particular the fashion on focus shots. The jun- iors also helped with fund rais- ing bake sales and solicited ads for the paper. In October the junior staffers attended a newspaper sem- inar at the University of Pitts- burgh where they learned new ideas on writing various types of newspaper articles.

Led by Marietta Chulick, Room 211 showed the highest sales - $1,918, and all who participated were treated to a party. Tammy Stone, high salesman with a total of $255.75 won the grand prize, an AM FM stereo. Second high sales- man Joe Barbarich, with $240.25 sales, received a Kodax X-15 camera for his efforts. Each daily high salesman had a choice of a large plush pillow or a trasistor radio as a prize. Because the class had surpassed its established goal of $9000, a special drawing was held for those who par- ticipated, the winner having a choice of a portable TV, C-B or a stereo sys- tem. Mary Peters, the lucky winner, chose the stereo.

The theme chosen was The Way I Feel Tonight with light and dark green as the color scheme. A heart- shaped pendant of silver with a green stone in center around which was inscribed the theme was selected as the favor. The dinner was set for six, followed by the dance at nine.

Through the activities advisor, Mr. Albert Keller, over 170 rings made by L.G. Balfour Company were ordered in April of 1977. The majority chose 10 karat gold rings at an average cost of $57. But with the rising cost of gold, several students purchased the platinum type, costing about $48 or the sterling silver, average cost $37. The rings were engraved with the various insignia symbolic of the school and the area. In the center was an emerald stone which came in a va- riety of cuts, including the faceted or smooth. For an additional $5, a Fire- burst or Starflame cut was available. The acquisition of the class ring was the highlight of the junior year.

The students eligible for consideration must have maintained at least a 3.2 average throughout their sophomore year. After being rated by the faculty with regard to qualities of leadership, service and character, thirteen juniors, six per cent of the class, received the honor of member- ship in the NHS. Some of the new members' duties included assisting with the NHS dance, held in late March, and the Teacher Appreciation Day in early April. The juniors also hosted a pic- nic for the graduating senior mem- bers in June. Lori Coudriet's smile is indicative of her happiness at becoming a member of the NHS.

Reflections Of In one sense, seniors are perhaps the closest to finding their pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; but in another sense, they are furthest away. From preparing to begin a college education to launching a responsible career, from pursuing vocational skills to entering marriage and raising a family, seniors must be able to apply high school learning experiences to new challenges and responsi- bilities. Graduation often serves as a turning point for students to begin a new life style as they make their way from one end of the spectrum to the other. Just as the colors of the rainbow blend together, so too the seniors must blend in with their fellowmen and find a place in society. Once they have gained self-satisfaction in a successful life, they will then realize that their goal was the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Seniors-159 CLASS PORTRAITS Making certain that every strand of hair is in the right place, Caye Ciffin prepares to have her picture taken. Seniors Taken In Color For First Time Weeks of picking out new suits and cowl neck sweaters and trying out smiles before mirrors finally came to an end on September 19 when Cover Studio of Johnstown set up a makeshift studio on the stage of the auditorium to take senior portraits. Paul Cover spent the week photographing over 200 seniors. For the first time ever, students in the senior class had their pic- tures taken in full color. There were some who were not too happy with this, but when the proofs arrived two weeks later, most sen- iors agreed that full color portraits were better and had definite ad- vantages over the black and white oil-tinted pictures. Having chosen their ''best pose, the seniors placed orders which they received in early De- cember. One of the most popular orders was the Senior Special, which included two 8 X 10 framed portraits, six 5 X 7 pictures in fiberboards easels and 48 wallet size photos, all in full color for a $60 cost. Shortly after the pictures were received, seniors were kept busy writing mementoes on wallet photos to exchange with class- mates and friends, a tradition with the senior class.

Barbara Pryor of the Bradford Business College of Pittsburgh discusses a business education career with a group of senior girls. CAREERS Seniors Make Plans For The Future While some seniors planned to attend college, many others took advantage of different opportuni- ties open to them after graduation. There were those who decided on a military career while others chose a trade school or a job in the bus- iness field. Throughout the year, repre- sentatives from the armed forces, colleges and business schools found attentive audiences in sen- iors who realized time was running out and decisions had to be made. Interest in post-high school educa- tion of some sort deepened as stu- dents realized the relationship be- tween training and future job pos- sibilities. For those planning to attend college next fall, Mr. Hrapchak, guidance counselor, was always available with information on en- trance requirements, scholarships and financial assistance. Along with this, he also handled ar- rangements for those seniors wishing to remain in the area and attend Vo-Tech in the sum- mer. Job availability in the area as well as openings in various fields, state and nationwide, was com- piled by the guidance department and passed out to seniors to give them an idea of what to look for after graduation. What career he was going to pursue became a number one priority on the senior's list. 162-Seniors Having enlisted in the Marines, seniors Randy Rusnak, Dave Plummer and Tom Susko plan to leave in mid-June.

College-Bound Seniors Find Course Valuable Research Paper as part of the Expo II course proved to be a valuable elective for college- bound seniors. Under the direction of Bruce Penrod, the course covered the basics of writing a term paper, from choosing a topic, taking notes, outlining, to the ac- tual construction of the paper with footnotes and bibliography. Need- less to say the library with its ref- erence books, card catolog etc. be- came an integral part of the course. The seniors were required to complete two research papers along with several shorter pa- pers on selected topics. The twelve-week course was rather tedious and time-consuming but it provided an important skill for college-bound seniors. 164-Seniors While reading over Sue Costello's outline of her research paper, Bruce Penrod checks for possible errors.

NHS INDUCTIONS Thirteen Seniors Inducted by NHS Thirteen seniors were inducted into the National Honor Society on December 15 at a candlelight cere- mony held in the high school auditorium. Having maintained a 3.2 grade average and having showed in- volvement in school activities, these seniors possessed the quali- ties of character, leadership, scholarship and service that are re- quired for inductions. The seniors were responsible for the planning of the society's activities as they led the juniors throughout the year. Many seniors felt that induction into the National Honor Society was the realization of one of their goals in their last year of high school and all were honored to re- ceive this recognition.

The all-senior team made a good showing in the '78 competition. They were eliminated in round three by a sharp team from State College High. The quiz team was but one of the many endeavors headed by seniors who proved to be leaders all the way.

CHEERLEADERS Seven Seniors On Championship Squad Seven members of the cham- pionshiop cheerleading squad graduated at the June commence- ment exercises. Leading the 12-member group were seniors Debbie Smiach, cap- tain and Chris Bertolino, assis- tant captain. Other seniors in- cluded Mary Afton, Lisa Clement, Judi Gdula, Cindi Kauffman and Rita Soohy. During the summer of '77 the girls attended a cheerleading training camp at Indiana Univer- sity to learn new cheers and techniques in preparation for the coming year. They also spent many hours during the summer and after school to perfect the cheer which won for them the cham- pionship. These seniors proved to be the nucleus of the team which entered the annual cheerleading contest on November and emerged with the first place trophy, a first for a Forest Hills entry. Once again it was the senior who led the way to a champion- ship, a feat which the underclass- men will attempt to emulate.

Here seniors Bob Casti, Marian Betz and Duane Hillegas model the latest fash- ions found in the stores at the Richland Mall. As they head for the main entrance, Tonya Tirko, at left, and Lynne Sanders display their own unique style of dress. FASHIONS ON FOCUS Seniors Set Pace In Current Fashions Setting the pace in current wear- ing apparel, the class of 78 proved tops on the fashion scene. Mem- bers of the class participated in the modeling of current fashions fea- tured in the Montage, the school newspaper. With the opening of school, fall sweaters were featured with sev- eral seniors invited to the Rich- land Mall to model some popular styes. Gowns for the Christmas holi- day season were modeled by sen- iors Kathy Plummer, Liz Stein and Sally Jo Brunnet. And then there were those sen- iors who always looked sharp in their stylish dress, two of whom were Tonya Tirko and Lynne Sanders. Even though both had their own styles of dress, each managed to maintain her own unique image. Not only were the seniors lead- ers in activities but also in the fashions of the day.

The college-bound student, be- sides taking the required subjects, had the opportunity to take electives, such as calculus, com- puter, micro-biology etc. The bus- iness education senior along with the usual courses of typing ac- counting and shorthand has at his disposal office practice, business machines, business law and the like to give the commercial stu- dent a well balanced program in the business education field. For the senior who intended to terminate his schooling with grad- uation, there were shop courses, metal and wood, home ec, power technology, computer and so on. Such courses affored some practi- cal knowledge which might be of some help later on. Band, chorus, art etc, were available to any senior who was interested in the cultural aspects of education. 174-Seniors Terry Lucas Trina Mackel Connie Mader Diane Malzi Nate Manges Laurie Marks Mary Lou Marsalko Pat Maslar Lucas, Terry - 1 12 60 - RD 1 Sid- man - Portage Occupational School.

INVOLVEMENT Seniors Get Involved In School Activities After gaining experience and maturity during their underclass- men years, the seniors emerged and became more involved in many school activities. They like- wise assumed leadership roles in various club and organizations. This was illustrated in the dif- ferent sporting teams whose most talented players were seniors, the forensic team's senior speakers who qualified for state competi- tion, band and chorus that includ- ed some outstanding senior mu- sicians, and virtually all school clubs whose officers and most in- volved members were seniors. Seniors got involved in club sponsored activities, such as the Student Council's Christmas Dec- orating contest, the jaycees' Cystic Fibrosis Marathon and many others. They took a major role in school publications and the forensic program. Name an ac- tivity and there was bound to be a senior involved. Involvement was a key word in the life of many seniors.

Peter Burkholder, Student Services representative, was pres- ent to explain the program. After order blanks and brochures were distributed, Mr. Burkholder, via an overhead projector, showed the seniors the proper method of ordering. Graduation announcements cost 30 each and the name cards averaged $4.00 per hundred. Also available were thank you notes and graduation party announcements as well as other items pertinent to graduation. The class also had the oppor- tunity to order a school key for charm bracelets, necklaces or key chains. About 2500 announcements were ordered and about 30 per cent of the class ordered name cards and class keys. The articles arrived at the be- ginning of April for distribution to the seniors.

Seniors - 179 SENIOR NIGHT Seniors Honored For Services On Special Night Throughout the year at various sport events, a special night was held to honor the seniors who would be graduating in June. The first and by far the biggest such activity was held at the final home football game. Prior to the start of the game each senior on the team was introduced separately as he trotted on to the field. A special halftime show recognized senior band members, band front and cheerleaders. All were pre- sented flowers by underclassmen as their names were called and they proceeded to the sidelines. As each sporting season ended for both boys and girls, similar ceremonies were held. These annual senior nights were just one way of paying tribute to those seniors who persevered in the various sporting activities through- out their high school days. At a senior night ceremony Charles Cannin, band director, pins a corsage on senior Tama Werfel, drum majorette.

Seniors - 181 Kerry Sautcr, over-all chariman of the class elections, speaks before a senor as- sembly and explains the election pro- ceedings for class officers. CLASS ELECTIONS Seniors Supervise Annual Class Elections Once again senior members of Mr. Turchetta's political science classes supervised the class of- ficer elections. Over-all chairman was Kerry Sauter assisted by Rita Soohy. Among their responsibilities were registering voters, scheduling meetings for the various parties and presiding over all phases of the elections. After prospective candidates ob- tained nominating forms from those in charge, they had to get 25 signatures of party members in order to get their names on the ballot. The election board, made up of seniors, then conducted a primary election and prepared ballots for the general election held in November. Voting was held in the tax office lobby where voting booths were set up. After the polls were closed the senior members of the election committee tabulated the results and had the winners announced over the PA system. The activity was rather practical for the seniors who learned the fundamentals of the election pro- cedure carried out at local, state and national levels.

Cheryl Schofield Ronald Secary ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS Seniors Participate In Antrium Bureaus Throughout the year several antrium bureaus or assembly programs were held for the stu- dent body. These interesting and informative programs sometimes required student participation and the seniors were always ready to volunteer their services. Included in these assemblies were acrobatics, gyroscopes, wheelchair basketball and herpe- tology. The most fascinating of these was perhaps the herpetology show held on November 30. Under the direction of a Mr. Carey, various reptiles were displayed. He also explained the snakes' eating habits. means of locomotion and protec- tion devices. In addition Mr. Carey demon- strated with the help of students and teachers how friendly these cold-blooded creatures can be. Stu- dent volunteers included seniors Mary Afton, Lisa Dell and Lisa Clement and sophomore Charlene Baer. Mr. Balog and Miss Barnett of the faculty also volunteered to help. The assistants, with snakes encircled about their necks walked about the auditorium and displayed the snakes. Several girls in the audience were shocked to find a lizzard or snake suddenly sitting in their laps. Sanders, Lynne - 3 28 60 - RD 1 South Fork - Radio Club 11,12 (Pres- ident 12); Ski Club 11,12.

Most sports employed paid help for keeping score and jotting down statistics of the games. But not so in wrestling. There were several girls who volunteered their ser- vices and gave up their evenings to keep score at the wrestling matches. These girls were a vital part of the sport. Working behind the scenes, the girls recorded the statistics of the varsity and jay- vee games. They also participated in money making projects sponsored by the team, such as obtaining patrons for the wrestling booster club. Four senior girls, in particular, were the mainstay of the group. They included Pam Bopp, Renee Gallardy, Kris Mickle and Laurie Marks.

CAPS AND GOWNS Seniors Measured For Caps and Gowns On March 7 all graduating sen- iors were measured for caps and gowns. Richard Hagelauer, a representative of Macmillan Ward Ostwalt, Inc. was on hand to do the measuring. During the fifth period lunch time, the seniors reported to the home ec room where the activity took place. Gold caps and gowns were or- dered for the girls and dark green for the boys. The rental charge for the robes was paid for by the school district. With each set, a green and gold tassel was in- cluded and this was retained by each graduate as a memento of his commencement. With the arrival of the caps and gowns in mid-May, the sen- iors began a countdown of the number of days left until grad- uation. The cap and gown, a sym- bol of graduation, was but one reminder to seniors that some of the most cherished years of their lives was fast coming to an end. Size 7 1 2 hat, states Mr. Hagelauer as he measures senior Jim Susko for cap and gown. Seniors - 191 Special Benefactors $30.00 CONWAY'S LOUNGE and RESTAURANT, DUNLO $25.00 SY R.

As the rainbow finally reaches its apparent end, we realize what has made this year so special, namely special people - the students, faculty and administrators. These special friendships among seniors, underclassmen, teachers and administrators have colored our days and enhanced the richness of our own lives. Working and sharing together - whether on an especially hard physics problem or as one of our winning cheerleaders, we now see the pot of gold at the rainbow's end. It is the memories and impressions of these days spent together that we will treasure and keep with us. Closing-205 Right: Having completed his final test, Jim Pcnatzer turns in his English book. Right Center: Nonchalantly Jim Brown ambles down the deserted hallway and heads for home, his high schools days at an end.

Even as we reach this end, we see in the hazy distance, the beginnings of a new rainbow waiting to be built. Although we all build our own rainbows differently, the foundation for them all has begun in these halls and these classrooms, not only with the things we've learned, but with the relationships we've built. The future is quite uncertain and storms may pass our way. But with each storm comes the promise of the sun shining through the clouds and the hope of the rainbow that follows. Closing-207 Doug Lndler, president Holly Law. vice-president The sun'll come out tomorrow - So I've got to hang on 'til tomorrow. It's only a day away. t
