Not to be bystanders, GHS stu- dents actively contributed to the fair’s success. The Voc. Dept’s cider stand and the Junior class’s raffled off nativity scene added to both organization’s accounts. More GHS students partici- pated in agricultural projects. Peggy Sutton raised the cham- pion hog which sold for $1.00 per Ib. FFA students had crops and animals judged. Rain nearly cancelled the Sat- urday parade with the GHS band squeezed on a porch, waiting for the parade to resume. The band received 4th place, with a $70.00 cash prize. In the Miss DeKalb County Fair contest, Debbie Diederich and Olivia Lillie placed 2nd and Ist runners-up, respectively for GHS. UPPER LEFT. Kim Oster and Lisa Rex. UPPER RIGHT.

The two weeks of learning to walk, dance, and sing went so quickly it didn’t seem possible that the night had come. Backstage there was an air of tension for awhile, but as the show got on the road, the air cleared. No major catastro- phes occurred, and before you knew it, the time of crowning had arrived. Anticipation filled every contestant as the emcee announced the first runner-up ... Olivia Lillie. Then came the naming of the queen ... Debbie Diederich. Tears flowed as Deb- bie took her walk down the run- way, smiling at the standing crowd. UPPER LEFT. Miss Garrett, 1974, is Deb- bie Diederich. UPPER RIGHT. Queen candidates include L. to R.

Two important issues were Watergate and the energy crisis. Opinions expressed by GHS students included these quotes about Watergate. ‘‘Water- gate couldn’t bother me because I'm apathetic towards govern- ment anyway.’’ — Valeska Ric- cus. “| used to think that if peo- ple wanted something they would : go out and work for it. | now feel q that the way to succeed is to cheat and try not to get caught.” — Wayne Rowe. ‘I feel Nixon should be impeached mainly be- cause of Watergate. How can a president run a country and not know what was happening with his own staff.’’ — Julie Parker. ‘My confidence in our form of government was shaken and at the same time restored by Water- gate. At first, | thought there was no hope for the system, then | decided that there will be a | vast expanse left for my gene- } ration to improve upon.” Kevin Derrow. As these quotes imply stu- dents could really relate to the energy crisis. “Il couldn’t find gas yesterday when | ran out. | looked in three towns.”’ — Tony Blomeke. ‘“‘My parents have lim- ited my travels with the car. | pay for gas now.”’ — Bobbie Finn. “The energy crisis made each person aware of the fuel con- sumption problems facing the world today. Many were skeptical of the situation, but usually con- piled with measures instilled to help save gas. Perhaps the energy crisis had a brighter side to it, as it brought together the American people in joint cause.’’ — Steve Zeider 6 energy crisis, watergate | Forgot It Was Sunday.”’ Time for Action?, onGass The Watergate Three = Verdict on Watergate Nixon he Gas Guzzlers SE CRISIS Page 6 — Service station attendant Joe McCorkel finds he has less hours to work, as the gas shortage causes most stations to close on Sunday.

These convocations in- cluded a professional whistler, a vocalist, a preview of the senior play, ‘‘Diary of Anne Frank,” a preview of all school production “Gypsy,’’ a campus life singing group, and a family of gymnasts. A special convocation featuring Birch Bayh was held for juniors and seniors. The Indiana Senator spoke to attentive students on crucial matters such as the en- ergy crisis, impeachment, and abortion. On March 22, a night convocation was sponsored by the Council. It featured hypno- tist, Dr. Irwin Ross, who took audience volunteers and per- formed various feats. All profit was used to better the student lounge. UPPER, Sonnie Burton sings to blushing Miss Simmons as Gary Crabill and Bob Dannenberg look amusedly on.

Mary Jo, aS senior, was presented with a bouquet of roses and a kiss from Wayne Rowe, co-captain of the Railroaders football team. The event, sponsored by the GHS student council, featured a decorated car from each senior high class. The sophomore car won the title of best float, for which they received a trophy. i Mistress of Ceremonies was stu- dent council member, Marilyn Miller. Two representatives from each class were selected by the football team members. Each representative was eligible for becoming queen. The homecom- | ing queen was elected by the stu- dent body. ee rn UPPER RIGHT, Sr. Mary Joan Novy reigns as 1974 Football Homecoming Queen. MIDDLE LEFT, Soph.

The cast gave in- spired performances with no ex- ceptions. The set crew, Connie Sigler, Jody Witherspoon, Linda Rist, Mary Reed, and Jayne Tetz- | laff made the changes smoothly. Diane Cousino immensely aided the cast with her services of cos- tumes. Sound effects and light- ing were deftly handled by Bob Dannenberg, Steve Zeider, Frank Sellke, and Pat Whyte. Sets were made by Carol Redmond, Bob Kahlke, and Jerry Bowman un- der the advisement of Thomas Bartel. Student director, Jacque Black, deserved much praise.

What is North Central? Actually, it’s more of an_ in- spection. The inspectors are members of an organization call- ed the North Central Associa- tion. Every year they check out schools in Indiana to determine if the schools meet their require- ments. If they do not, the schools are not licensed; therefore, a stu- dent’s diploma means next-to- nothing. Paul McFann, principal, notes, “The North Central Evaluation has benefited the educational program at Garrett. The _ staff combined efforts to conduct an extensive self-evaluation. This was an objective analysis of Gar- rett’s program.” In response to a North Cen- tra l questionaire, the GHS_ stu- dent body formed the following Statistics. 1. Most of the teachers in this school care for students as in- dividuals, apart from their work in class. 220 AGREE; 176 _ DIS- AGREE; 202 UNCERTAIN. 2.

The locker room was wild with frenzied excitement. We had just beaten DeKalb, our arch rivals for a third place finish in the NEIC; but above all, we had gained revenge for a 21-0 loss ear- lier in the season. Parents and friends were pouring into the lock- er room while the coaching staff received the end of the season shower by the players which had become a tradition. There was jubi- lation, and there was pride; but for me there was a sadness. | will al- ways remember football as the greatest time in my life, and at that moment | realized that it was over. | am a senior. For most sen- iors this feeling comes at gradua- tion; for me it came at that mo- ment in the locker room as | took off my high school football jersey for the last time. It was an emo- tional time, a lonely sadness. | sat down to be alone with my thoughts as tears welled, and | felt the need to cry. The image of a freshman in mud cleets and elephant socks flashed then faded in the back of my mind forming a visual impres- sion of the way it was. The image changed to a sophomore struggling through agility drills like a rookie for the first time, lost among the towering, physical frames of the confident and more experienced. As a sophomore | put my varsity uniform on for the first time. Then there was the image of a junior determined to get the job done and the conference championship. | would miss it ... reporting to sum- mer workouts, the spirit, the fellow- ship, the smell of cramer, the burn- ing of coaches liniment, the heat 18 varsity football of the summer sun, the humidity, the sting of sweat in my eyes, the fatigue at the end of the 15th wind sprint and the salty taste of the water when | drank from my hel- met. Most of these feelings | would never again experience in the man- ner | had before. | rose from the bench and with tears still on my cheeks, let my spirit soar. For above all else | wanted to remember that moment — | was a senior. As | stepped from the locker room, a stiff and chilly wind bit into my face. It was snowing. As that wind froze the moisture still in the cor- ner of my eyes, | realized that foot- ball was only the beginning; there was graduation yet. | wondered if | would cry then too. By Kevin Derrow Mixed emotions best describes this year. After suffering a heartbreak- ing loss to East Noble, the team came back with a convincing vic- tory over South Adams, the NEIAC champs. After being handed a hu- miliating defeat by DeKalb during the season we got the sweet revenge in the playoffs, where it really counts.

Who is it that forces each player on the varsity to work to his utmost? Who is it that often times risks serious personal injury so that the var- sity can reach top physical condi- tion? Who is it that puts a full ef- fort into a game even though they may have had only one or two practices together the week before? These are the reserves. These guys don’t really mind it though because they know that in a year or two they will be wearing a varsity football jersey. GARRETT VS.

At this level it is not the winning or losing, it is the unity of a group of guys. There is a form of energy that will never be reproduced.

Means Over Distance In Cross- Country Cross country is an animal sport. A horse would be better suited to this kind of running. Cross country has its own O.D. (over distance) which would physically exhaust the average human. The layman refers to the runner’s efforts as ‘“‘guts’’. The runners, themselves, call it the “animalistic drive’. This may seem like a gruesome associa- tion for a high school sport but it is justified. These men have a personal pride from the satis- faction of conditioning them- selves for competition. They put in hundreds of miles of condi- tioning for a two and a half mile race. GARRETT VS.

Iron Butterfly and Step- penwolf took their turns. The gentle throbbing diesels lull me into a sub-conscious awareness of what’s going on around me.

Pressure would be constant for four periods of play. It was this awareness that kept my mind alert, racing through all of the pattern turns, circum- stances and possibilities; possi- bilities that would materialize like a ripple across water, melt, and come once again under the guidance of another whisp of wind. The same circumstances would arise and have to be met. | heaved a slow, easy sigh from deep down in my chest. Most of all, there is an uncertainty about the outcome of the game. We 24 varsity basketball had been told what to expect. We had been drilled on what must be done to keep the game under control and the scoreboard click- ing to our advantage, yet there still existed uncertainty. It would be a relief to be on the bus ride home tonight.

The C-team plays six games. There are seldom more than twenty fans at a C-team game. And out of those fans that do come, some harass and make fun of the players, coach, and referees.

The sprinter beside me was con- fident. This was his event. The 220 yards to the finish line were acquaintances with which he had long since become familiar. For me, a shot putter, the distance was familiar only in terms of workouts, and the fact that it was, indeed, 220 yards. In the 880 yard relay, four men run a half mile, with each man running 220 yards. With 660 yards completed, we had gained a two Stride lead. As | received the baton, our lead vanished to an even stride. Then as their sprinter gained momentum our hope for a first place finish vanished. The pounding of his feet threw cinders back at me as | dug the spikes of my Pumas into the cinder bed of the track. Their sprinter had added ten more yards of insult, as | heard the roar of the crowd for the im- possible. The impossiblity of my being three seconds faster than | was physically capable of proved a distant satisfaction as | drove my 190 pounds across the plane of the finish line. | leaned hard and felt my legs buckle beneath me.

Wrestling com- bines much of the conditioning of many other fast moving sports. Wrestling is a sport of take downs, escapes, reversals, near falls, half nelsons, cradles and pins. To the beginner, it is all very confusing, yet one other fac- tion makes wrestling tough — weight classes. A competitor wrestles only opponents in his own weight class or heavier. Thus an athlete must maintain his weight where he performs best without going over his weight class. This fact can only be ap- preciated when one sits down to eat. Weight presents as_ for- midable an opponent as another wrestler. GARRETT VS.

Volleyball started in the fall and had 11 members which com- posed a varsity and a reserve squad. The girls had to start out by learning fundamentals which are the foundation for any sport. The devotion and hard work which each girl dedicated to the sport helped to earn for them a 6-3 record. They were nosed out in the semi-finals of the sectional by a tough Leo squad but not before they brought Northrop to its knees. The basketball season found 13 girls jockeying for starting positions. Many key injuries and a lack of experience contributed to a heartbreaking 2-6 record. This year’s track team was victorious against Angola in a home meet. Pam Kinsey quali- fied for sectional in both the hur- dies and long jump and advanced to the regional in the hurdles. The two women coaches, Miss Ann Craw and Miss Pat Menis, provided the leadership and did an excellent job at initiating the new programs.

For one week at Vincennes Uni- versity they learned new cheers, pom-pom routines, and stunts. For the first time in GHS history the cheerleaders brought home a National Cheerleaders Associa- tion Spirit Stick. The winning of this honor seemed easy com- pared to the task of spreading enthusiasm throughout the stu- dent body. Although it was a tough job, it was thought of as a fun one. The girls planned pep sessions, breakfasts, and dream- ed up different methods to instill school spirit. A class day and sock day allowed GHS students to show their support of the ath- letic events. The teams were suc- cessful and never disappoint- ed the girls that backed them. Cheerleading in the 1973-74 sea- son was concluded as fun, hard work, but most of all rewarding.

GHS Student Council initiated many firsts as well as keeping its traditions. The main change was the fact that the junior high and senior high maintained separate councils. Impeachment, a new pro- cedure, was also used. In addition to sponsoring all convocations, the Student Council also participated in money making projects such as a Halloween dance and the annual candy sales. A suggestion box was located in the lunchroom for stu- dent’s peeves. From a suggestion, the Council took action which re- sulted in a choice of chocolate milk instead of the regular white for lunch.

To be voted into this club, scholastic averaged of 3.4 out of a possible 4.0 for juniors and 3.25 for seniors must be met. An average of 3.0 must be maintained throughout the school year in order to remain a member. The students must also show character, leadership, scholar- ship, and service. As a service project the NHS made and delivered Easter baskets to the Wee Haven school for retarded children. Thespians exists as a small group of students who qualify for member- ship by attaining points. These points are earned by participating in roles or on committees in the all school production, senior play, or theater arts projects. New members were in- itiated in the spring. At that time, each new member presented a dramatic selection. The all-school production was their money making project.

Of 32 members entered from Garrett they had 19 winners with 7 advancing to state competition. They also won. the Sweepstakes award that is given to the school accumulating the greatest number of points for their winners. From regional, they advanced to state competition at Indianapolis. Seven members competed in the oc- cupational cluster contests and others were also entered in the chapter dis- play contest, the scrapbook contest, the parliamentary procedure contest and the chapter of the year contest. In the chapter of the year contest, out of 285 chapters in the state of Indiana, Garrett OEA was chosen num- ber one and the club to represent Indiana in the chapter of the year contest at Nationals in Minneapolis. Debbie Beber gave the oral presenta- tion and Pat Delucenay assisted with the visual presentation in this contest. Linda Adams and Debbie Beber won first and second place respectively in the Typing | contest and advanced to the nationals. Throughout the year there was a competitive, determined spirit in each of the OEA members.

Students earn two to six credits working for local employers. The combined or- ganizations have had two main events. For a money making project, they had a bake sale at the DeKalb County Fair. For recreation, they held a cookout at the home of Andy Baker. Members en- joyed the boys’ softball game, ate hot- dogs, and played volleyball. Another part of the vocational program is Auto Mechanics. Auto Mechanics is a 3 hour course reserved for juniors and seniors who plan to be mechanics Students go to class for 1 hour, then work in the shop for 2 hours. The class goes on field trips to dealers such as Don Ayres Pontiac, and they are visited by representatives of technical schools. By such procedures, students are made more familiar with the work- ings of the position of employment in which they plan to delve after com- pleting their high school education. By issuing simulated pay checks, fi- nances methods were practiced.

These and dozens of other questions were raised by the yearbook staff in the planning of AEOLIAN '74. Many things were changed and rearranged in or- der to start a period of improvement on the book. By attending a summer workshop at Ball State, the editors learned the modern trends and found they had their work cut out for them. Theme, something an Aeolian has never had, became the most important factor. Individuality at GHS was brought out in the original cover, theme open- ing and closing, and division pages. The use of different layout styles, black lines, an index, color pages, and more personal reporting were used to bring the book up to date. An addi- tional 20 pages were added to increase coverage, making AEOLIAN '74 the biggest and hopefully, the best Aeolian ever. AEOLIAN STAFF Editor-in-Chief .....

FTA members had worked for 3 years to prepare for their trip to Indiana University, and Purdue University. The trip provided the members with an excellent opportunity to compare various college procedures’ and practices. The club worked on getting new members and also on improving their constitution. FHA roved to be an up and coming club. Among its activities were Christ- mas Caroling, a children’s Christmas party, and selling of stationery as a moneymaking project. The group also , showed much imagination in their fund-raising projects by dreaming up new inventive ideas. At one cold foot- ball game they sold hot baked pota- toes; as both tasty teats and hand warmers. Representing GHS chapter FHA at a district meeting was parlia- mentarian Vonda Sipe. The FFA worked to perfect their farming and livestock techniques. The club sold seeds to raise funds and had many members participate in the DeKalb County Fair. 58 fha, ffa, fta saci . ae Students Prepare for Adulthoods tate P. 58 — UPPER LEFT, FFA — ROW 1, Merle Steller, Rich DePew, Bill Madden, Jeff Snider, Dennis Shenk, Ken Cousino, Mr. Ernsberger; ROW 2, Fred Sawyer, Lon Fritz, Bill Burniston, Dan Woodruff, Vonda Sipe, Ken Molargik, Jeff Jones, Don Hatton; ROW 3, Chris Knisely, Greg Skelly, Kevin Pfefferkorn, Tim Griffin, Mickey Steury, Jim Bauman, Jeff Helbert, Tom Mortoff; ROW 4, Kent Bowman, Doug Shenk, Don Koskie, Rex Bergdall, Chris Smiles, Mike Thomas, Mitch Jarnegin, Terry Freeman; ROW 5, Sue Westrick, Dan Hathaway, Don Holbrook, Myron Pfister, Jeff Barger, Pat Penland, Dan Helton; ROW 6, Randy Delong, Jim Treesh, Randy Hampshire, Tim Hullinger, Kevin Snook, Tim Smith.

E. Ober auditorium this year in November. Latin Club’s moneymaking projects included a bake sale and their annual Halloween candy sale. Candy was sold by each member to fellow students and adults. The club also sent a representative to the state conference in April. The Spanish club has been very active in moneymaking projects. The club members sold tacos at the Little 500 to much success. Other money making projects included a car wash and a bake sale. The club held a taco party for its members at which stu- dents prepared their own mexican delicacies. At a night meeting mem- bers met to make figurines out of bread dough, an Indian art. A dinner at a Spanish restuarant topped the club’s activities and provided an ex- cellent time for voting for new officers and experimenting with Mexican foods. In June, the club sponsored their second trip to Mexico, taking 30 persons. Students enjoyed the resort city of Acapulco and the his- toric sites in Mexico City. gape gee Projects Are Named Successes eye | % hd ef , ‘ } r| Pag 60 — UPPER RIGHT, Spanish Club — ROW 1, Steve Walton; Treas.

Creativity — Culture Through Language New semester courses were the story in this year’s English depart- ment. Creative writing, research, and Practical English help students de- velop their skills in all types of writing. The theater arts class developed tal- ents as playwrights and actors. Even more classes are now being planned for next year. The new department head is Jean Frohriep. All Spanish classes have made meals of totally Spanish or Mexican foods. Fourth year Spanish class wrote a script for a film strip then presented it to the third year class. Fourth year also wrote a newspaper which _in- cluded articles about Spanish club’s trip to Mexico and a Spanish cross- word puzzle. Latin classes have had a busy year studying Latin culture. Latin 1 studied the Gallic Wars and “killing off the Ro- man Empire’’. Latin 2 studied Roman weapons comparing them to modern methods of warfare. Latin 3 and 4, in a combined class, studied various forms of the classical dramas present in the Roman age. english, latin, spanish 65 The Home Economics Program has in- corporated many semester courses into the curriculum; hoping to create a more diverse field of study. Housing covered both interior and exterior home designs. Each student designed her ‘‘dream house”’; starting with a blue print plan up to the color schemes and design. In Foods Il, a field trip to Hoeffel’s local meat market was taken to teach the var- ious cuts of meat available to the con- .-Sumer. The courses also became co-ed- ucational this year. Clothing II students: carried out spring fashion show in which the students modeled clothing that they themselves had made. Adult living class- { es studied future home-making roles and | delved into practical applications such as taxes and financial burdens. Small children were brought into the Child De- velopment class as first-hand experience for the students. As a class, the students in agriculture learned skills necessary to run a good productive farm. Students learned how to raise, buy, and sell livestock. A great part of their learning occured on their “plot’’ located southeast of the school. They planted, fertilized, cultivated, plow- ed, and harvested their soybean crop. 66 home economics, agricluture Page 66 — UPPER LEFT, Greg Skelly does “men- tal work’’ while Randy Hampshire chooses to do written work in agriculture class.

Not only did they provide the music for all home football and basketball games, but they also played for the all school production. Performing in a convocation for the stu- dent body the band showed improve- ments in the area of classical music. The musical troupe also competed in the dis- trict band contest and sponsored a candy sale to raise funds. Director Mr. John Branam initiated activities to pro- vide for closeness among band mem- bers, one of these the band honor ban- quet. At this affair the John Phillip Sousa Award was presented jointly to Connie Sigler and Don Walker. band, pom-pom girls 69 EEE Ee Freedom Dominant in Fine Arts Under instructor Mr. Tom Bartel, GHS art classes got away from the beaten path and deviled into unusual forms of artistic creativity. Classes were placed on a basis in which each person was on his own, working at more or less his own pace. Including such areas as making pettery from a potter’s wheel, and kite construction, Mr. Bartel gave his classes more freedom to work on creative indivi- dual projects. In this way the true poten- tial and individuality of each student was brought out. These projects and art works were put on display in the art room show cases so that other students could view the imagination and creativity of their fellow classmates. The choral groups were divided into three main categories this year in order to present a variety of musical choices to students with varied musical tastes. The freshmen choir was made up of all frosh girls who showed their musical abi- lities by singing at the convocation, as did the regular choir. The concert choir made several public performances, sing- ing lighter, more modern selections. Fea- ture soloist for the concert choir was Cindy Picklesimer who performed her ta- lents at the spring concert and also at the convocation presented to the student body. 70 art, chorus erg = Page 70 — UPPER RIGHT, Lori Derickson wants to try her hand at Tonya Panning’s bangalos during the band and chorus convocation per- formed before the student body.

Stu- dents are taught the basic principles in various fields of math, yet they are also taught the applications of these facts in datly situations. New calculators were purchased so that students could in- crease accuracy in problem solving. The math department also kept up to date in world happenings by initiating a new set of teachings of the metric system to each class. By frequent departmental meetings, the math teachers also eval- uated their programs, striving for the most useful student education available. The science department created a sense of independence in each student. Chemistry | and Biology | taught the basic principles and laboratory tech- niques, while Chemistry Il and Biology Il stressed individual projects and per- fection of lab techniques. Physics instill- ed a sense of practicality of other sci- ences, along with a knowledge of what there is to learn. First semester consisted of a normal classroom situation, while second semester was used as a type of student independent, yet supervised learning situation. math, science 73 Tutoring-Job Training Aid Students New to GHS this year was academic tutoring. In this course, students were academically tutored, taught the ba- sics of jobs, and advised on how to im- prove themselves by being good citi- zens. Speakers talked to the class about job opportunities. The class also visited the Garrett State Bank. Business courses provided experi- ence for job training with such course- es as typing, shorthand and book- keeping. Business law and general business were taken by students as preparation for adult living. Provided new for the business lab this year were a duplicator and a mimiograph ma- chine, giving the lab an even more office-like appearance. A new system of issuing simulated pay checks was used to train student in business lab in the practical workings of the finan- cial end of business work. 74 business, academic tutoring Sa .

The social studies department stressed current events and student involvement. The civics classes were visited by state representatives Wil- liam Latz and Walter Helmke, while Senator Birch Bayh spoke to all jun- iors and seniors in a special convoca- tion. Sociology classes studying death went to McKee’s funderal home. The world history class learned how to unearth fossils in a anchaeological dig. physical education, social studies 77 Industrial arts in 1974 included the following classes; Woodworking 1 and 2, Metals 1-4, Electricity 1 and 2, Power Mechanics 1 and 2, and Draft- ing 1 and 2. These classes encouraged individual development of skills. In drafting, students learned the tech- niques of dimensioning and darkness of lines. Students who took woodwork- ing learned the names of tools and how to use them. They learned proce- dures such as refinishing. They also completed individual projects of their own choosing, such as an end table. Power mechanics students learned basic instruments and _ procedures, and studied the workings of the mach- inery used in the various fields avail- able in industries. 78 industrial arts ‘Curves Are More Fun Than Angles.” Page 78 — UPPER, “The right wheel’s con- nected to the right axle; the right axle’s con- nected to the drive shaft; ...’’ sings Mr. Dykstra to Dirk Smurr and others.

Each guy has his own specific reason, but they all have one thing in com- mon. These guys want to match up their skills and physical abili- ties against guys from other schools. A person can't help but admire the spirit, the energy and the enthusiasm with which they compete. Out of this enthusiasm emerges a breed of hard work- ing, devoted athletes that are destined to become the future stars on the varsity teams of Gar- rett High School.

Each class only met 4 days a week because of a rotating study hall. Also, class- es were changed from homoge- nous to heterogenous grouping this year. Eighth grade rotation consisted of 6 week classes of agriculture, Home _ Ec., Wood- shop, group guidance and _ con- temporary English.
