An exciting second half of Railroader basketball height: ened the evening's festivities. GHS eked out a 60-59 win over county rival Eastside on a last second shot by Doug Shippy. About 190 students danced to taped music provided by sen- iors Doug Shippy, Brad Babbitt, and Brian Shull after the game. The traditional homecoming dance concluded the festive oc- casion. Student Council mem: bers proclaimed it one of their best homecoming celebrations. LIONEL Basketball Homecoming 16S) RTP STEELS Students, staff await second part of each day As academic hours pass (or sometimes drag) by, students and maybe even some faculty members strain their eyes watching clocks throughout GHS. As the second hand rolls to 3:05, students dash for their busses or cars. To some 3:05 means eating, sleeping, or par- tying, but for others it’s the be- ginning of a hard afternoon of work at a part-time job or prac- tice sessions of one kind or an- other. During athletic seasons coaches and athletes roam about the gym, football or base- ball fields or track preparing for that week’s sports contests. The ‘‘spirit’’ people (better Sa = known as cheerleaders, pom pons, flags, and band members) work on new routines for home games and meets. Publications staffers strive to keep awake while typesetting stories for the paper and doing yearbook layouts. As for teachers and other school staff members, some just go home and wish it were Friday. Others have papers to grade, grocery shopping to do, hobbies to engage in, second jobs to go to, or physical fitness routines to follow. For most GHS people 3:05 simply means the beginning of the second part of the day.

After School TF; Fans revel in joy of winning The biggest difference be- (i U , fr tween a regular season basket- “er . ay . soo aoe ball game and a tournament 3 ya game is the crowd. The crowd, ; ia Pass os who during the season came to be with friends, to socialize, to hunt down the opposite sex, or just to get out of the house, is now intensified at least ten times into an ardent group of fans and supporters. The whole cheering, noisy crowd is in the game—it’s no longer competition among only ten people. The crowd sweats, feels anger, feels pain and gets frustrated when the team has trouble on the court. They yell, they bite their nails, stomp their feet and scream at their least favorite referee. Such was the crowd at the 1983-84 Garrett Sectional. Ev- eryone had become so in- volved, that when the Rail- roaders won their first sectional title in 12 years, each person felt a small amount of personal responsibility for the win. The magic of winning was not only captured in the happiness of the exhausted team, but also in the joy of the participating crowd. TOP—After the Railroaders win the sectional, Wesley Warstler is the first to cut part of the net. CENTER—Coach Denny Feagler sig- nals his team on the floor during sec- tional action. RIGHT—Garrett bench officials care: fully watch sectional play and at the same time perform their duties. 18 Winning TOP LEFT—On the edge of his seat at the regional, Mr. Robert Novy intensely watches as a play develops on the floor. TOP RIGHT—As the basketball sea- son ticks to an end, Coach Denny Feagler consoles junior John Bodey. MIDDLE—During regional competi- tion the GHS squad cheers as a foul is called against a Carroll Charger. BOTTOM LEFT—After the horn blows to begin the game, the Rail- roaders run onto the floor toward a sec- tional victory. BOTTOM RIGHT—Who’s that? Why if you don’t know who that is, then you certainly aren’t a Railroader fan! Fashion finds GHS open to suggestions in 84 Fickle. Unpredictable. Outra- geous. Yes, fashion. Fashion—a word that strikes terror in the hearts of budget- watchers and excitement in the souls of trend-setters. High schools fall prey to many fash- ions, some daring, some clas- sic, some downright comic. Nevertheless, the halls were ablaze with color, originality, and a lot of amazed whispering (‘Did you see what she’s wear- ing?’’) at GHS in 1984. In the winter, students snug: gled into argyle sweaters and layers of sweatshirts to keep ABOVE—Junior Veronica Erwin mod- els a sweatshirt with Japanese lettering as she perches above lockers. RIGHT—Posing for the photographer are Mike Vojtkofsky in a lightweight jacket and a sweatshirt, Kacy Shafer with the Flashdance look, and Molly Wappes as preppy as can be in layered polo shirts with the collars up. FAR RIGHT—Lynn Kobiela laughs un- suspectingly as she, her fashionable earrings, and her pin-stripe jeans are caught on film forever. 20 Fashion themselves warm; multi-lay- ered polo shirts (collars up) also provided a warm fashion. With the success of the movie Flash- dance, ripped-to-order sweat- shirts became fashionable, with tank top T-shirts peeking out as shirts not so innocently slipped off shoulders. Japanese letter- ing began to appear on sweats and T-shirts, and riding on a Duran Duran wave, males jumped into the fashion scene with parachute pants and the New Romantic look (thin ties in- cluded). The ‘“‘punk”’ look car- ried more weight than in past years, and several guys suc: cumbed to a pierced ear and a GARRET? -AILROADERS Sting-type haircut. Leather made a hit in the guise of jack- ets, pants, and mini-skirts. Girls wore huge and bright jewelry. As always, a pair of Levis and a T-shirt provided an easy way out, and many people belted their 501 Blues with a bandana and finished the picture with a pair of Nikes or Adidas sports shoes. Denim jackets were pop- ular for girls. Coliseum-goers collected concert T-shirts and souvenirs, and hunters stood out in the student forrest in their camoflauge and khaki. As spring rolled around, cropped pants and Bermuda shorts showed themselves and rubber shoes helped feet stay cool. Hand-made chopped up sweatshirts kept the tempera- ture down a little, too. Girls painted their fingernails strange (and glow-in -the-dark) colors, and with an effort to bring “punk” and ‘“‘cool’’ together, sunglasses that wrapped visor- like around half of the head were worn. Very few students affected a permanent “‘look’’, preferring to keep versatility in their ward: robes and proving that though fashions come and go, fashion never dies. LEFT—Hmm ... the look of the 80’s? Boy George, rock’s pretty boy girl it phenomena poutily asks, “Do you really want to hurt me?” BELOW — Collectible fads in 1984 were Garfield, rainbow, and unicorn momentos, Care Bears and Cabbage Patch dolls, worded pins (such as ‘‘Leave me alone—I’m having a crisis’), and bizarre earrings. Oh, yeah—and anything, anything to do with Michael Jackson. Fashion Pal ee Year in Review As school year begins, Soviet It’s 1983 ... Ronald Reagan is the fearless leader of the Unit- ed States. On April 18, a bomb explosion in the U.S. Embassy in Beirut wounds more than 80 people and kills 63. When Hurri- cane Alicia hits Houston, Tex- as, in August six people die. United States and Soviet Union relations are more tense than usual, stemming from an inci- dent in which Soviets shoot down an wandering Korean jet on the first day of September; 30 Americans perish. News- Sentinel (of Fort Wayne, Indi- ana) editorial page editor Ralph Daniel Osborne, his wife, and his 11-year old son are blud- geoned to death in their home. Anorexia Nervosa is at all time high, and singer Karen Carpen- ter dies of the disease. Actors David Niven (73) and Buster Crabbe (75), movie star Gloria Swanson (84), newscaster Frank Reynolds (59), Jessica Savitch (36), and boxing great Jack Dempsey (87) leave fans, friends, and family in mourning. The nation watches The Day After, a nuclear war mes- sage warning. A Chorus Line becomes the longest running musical on Broadway, and Re- turn of the Jedi nets $235 mil- lion by the end of November. Some highly acclaimed movies are The Right Stuff, The Big Chill, Terms of Endearment, The Year of Living Danger- ously, Silkwood, and Risky Business. Gandhi wins the Oscars for Best Picture, Direc: tor, and Actor (Ben Kingsley). Meryl Streep wins Best Actress for Sophie’s Choice, and los ing to Streep, is Jessica Lange (Frances), who picks up an Academy Award anyway fol her supporting role in Tootsie. Louis Gossett, Jr., wins Best Supporting Actor for his por trayal of the drill sergeant in An Officer and a Gentleman. Girls swoon when someone mentions Duran Duran. Quiet! Riot, The Police, Prince, and Culture Club also top the charts, but way up on top is the new ‘Prince of Pop,’’ Michael Jackson, with a crowning al bum that breaks best-selling re cords, THRILLER.

Boys pierce left ears and girls rip up sweatshirts a la ‘‘The Flashdance Look’’. Children play with Cabbage Patch dolls if their parents can find one. Cas- sette tapes now comprise the best-selling form of music. Teens rush home from school to watch the super-popular MTV and their favorite “VJ” and make sure they tune in on Tuesday nights to see ‘‘The A- Team”. 1983 fades into 1984. Sud- denly GHS discovers wha t New York has been doing all along— breakdancing. Something hap- pens somewhere and a Doors (super-group of the late ’60’s) re- vival begins. Footloose gives inspiration to dancers every- where. Movies to see are Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Romancing the Stone, Sixteen Candles, Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Purple Rain, and The Karate Kid. Robert Duvall wins an Os- car for Best Actor (Tender Mer- cies), and Linda Hunt wins a Best Supporting Actress award for arole in which she portrayed a man (The Year of Living Dangerously), and Terms of Endearment sweeps the major awards—Best Picture, Best Di- rector, Best Supporting Actress (Shirley MacLaine). Garfield ET 3138 stays well-loved, and Strawber- ry Shortcake is bowing out. Several train wrecks encour: age investigation, and several international hi-jackings also take place. Los Angeles hosts the Summer Olympics, and United States competitors rack up the gold medals. Miss Amer- ica, Vanessa Williams, steps off her throne in response to public: ity of pornographic photo- graphs of her. “Late Night With David Let- terman” and ‘Thicke of the Night” (starring Alan Thicke) war it out for viewer suprem- acy. Three men struggle to claim the Democratic nomina- tion for Presidential candida- cy—Walter Mondale, Gary Hart, and Jesse Jackson. Mon- i Gen Adm - e TICK Ue dale wins the nomination and selects a woman, Geraldine Fer- raro, as his running mate. An oil spill ruins the tourist season in Galveston, Texas. The 30’s look is officially ‘in’. Girls continue to worship Michael Jackson, and Prince scores with a hit album and movie Purple Rain. The summer of ’84 will seep into autumn, and finally, with winter, into 1985. —Michelle Peters Year in Review 23 1984 misses George Orwell's expectations George Orwell's interpreta- tion of 1984 it was not. However, from a Quiet Riot Van Halen craze to new wave music, Pan Pizzas and a terrific basketball season, 1983-84 left an indeliable and unique im- pression on the minds of most GHS students. Besides new computers and new teachers, new attitudes came to GHS in the 1983-84 school year, some of which were expressed in a questionnaire survey conduct- ed in January by the Aeolian staff. Superstar Michael Jackson made a dramatic mark with his album THRILLER. THRILLER undoubtedly caused Jackson to be the year’s most popular sing- er at GHS. Jackson and numer- ous other bands and singers re- ceived extra ‘‘visibility’’ due to the popularity of MTV in early 1984, and many expressed a de- sire to ‘‘get it’’ (in stereo). In 1984 between one-third and one-half of GHS girls sport- ed ear lobes that were at least double pierced. Between one- thirteenth and one-fifteenth of GHS boys tried a pierced ear also after many well known fig- 1984 FAVORITES AT GHS JOAN RIVERS WMEE (97 FM) THOSE TWO GUYS (CHARLIE BUTCHER SCOTT TSULEF) News media personality Least favorite politician ‘‘Hang-out’’ restaurant MIDDLE RIGHT—Favorite actor— Clint Eastwood RIGHT—Least favorite politi- cian—Jimmy Carter FAR RIGHT—Favorite actress— Olivia Newton-John 24 1984 Survey GREG JOHANS BASKETBALL ures set the trend. The Rocky Horror Picture Show, a popular teen cult mov: ie, had been seen by one-third to one-fourth of the student body, and some fans had seen it 26, 30, and even 40 times! Also popular on the big screen were Clint Eastwood, Olivia Newton- John, and the movie Porky’s. Sports were definitely popu- lar in 1984. Dr. J (Julius Irving of the Philadelphia Seventy- sixers) was the favorite sports figure, and, even before Gar- rett’s spectacular 21-5 season, basketball was the most popu- lar sport. Even the most favol ite news communications pel sonality had roots in athletics— 21 Alive sportscaster Greg J hans. What do parents, death, n clear war, going to hell, and th thought of losing a loved on have in common? All were co mon answers to the question ‘“‘What scares you most?” On more positive note, 96% of GH§ students believed in heave and or hell, and 98% believed it God. of the next 20 years was fore: told. Maybe not screamed from the rooftops, but for those who cared to listen, whispered quite audibly just the same. A new era of political assassination be- gan with that of President John IF. Kennedy and racial conflict iclimaxed with the assassination of the civil rights leader, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Further problems in the Middle East, South America, and be: tween the U.S. and the Soviet Union would arise. The space age had leaped into existence, as had the atomic nuclear age, and both promised to expand. High crime rates had becom e a frightening fact. In the same respect, 1984 must surely have told us some- thing about the future. Looking back in 20 years, perhaps it will be easier to pick out events that had led to something further in time, but upon speculation,’ | | | | | | some seem frighteningly obvi- ous. What is yet to come of the heightened space programs? Of a high crime rate? 1984 showed vast political unrest and prob- lems and a high nuclear arms buildup. On a less serious (but just as obvious) side, 1984 showed a unique movement in trends that could definitely lead to something even larger. By the year 2000 (as they say), the American pop radio stations could be totally dominated by the English, who had climbed U.S. music charts at an ex- tremely high rate since 1983. Then again, Michael Jackson might own the U.S. by that time, in which case the British “invasion” could be expertly thwarted by platoons of adoles- cents in single gloves (an obvi- ous fashion trend, that, unfortu- nately for Eskimos and Northern Indiana residents, could honestly last awhile). But with video almost overshadow: ing music, who knows? (Which brings up the question of what video and MTV have in store for the masses.) Taking their cue from 1984, people who have stopped gasp- ing and have become blasé about androgyny may actually embrace it as they grope to copy their favorite “‘star’’. (Re member the resident 11-year- olds with single frostbitten hands?) Men may start dolling up like Culture Club’s Boy George and women may dress like Annie Lenox of the Euryth- mics. If 1984 has anything to say about it, people will treat controversial and previously shocking trends (what could be more shocking than Boy George’s rainbow bright eye- lids, right?) with courtesy and even (gasp!) curiosity. (Just think of the Broadway smash, La Cage Aux Folles or the still popular cult movie, The Rocky Fvents of past, present hold key to future | By the late 1960’s, the future Horror Picture Show.) Speaking of movies, there seems to be a bright future for slick, up-date comedies (Six- teen Candles and Ghostbus- ters are good examples) and for old-fashioned action ‘n’ ro- mance films (like Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Romancing the Stone.) As always, fashion will re- main firmly in touch with the past. It looks as though after the shine of ‘‘new”’ fashion wears off, the ‘‘basics”’ will always be waiting with open arms (no pun intended). Maybe the whole key to the future is the past and present. After all, we are told that histo- ry repeats itself. But, in what- ever direction the current of time is pulling us, we are al- ready half way to tomorrow. —Michelle Peters Half Way to Tomorrow 25 Clubs 26 Participation in clubs and extra-curricular activities breaks the tedium of classes and homewor k today and provides memories for tomorrow. Clubs e, Little 500, Guided by sponsor Paul Johnston, Student Council members led active lives during the 1983-84 school year. Sever- al dances, the football home: coming festivities, sweetheart flower sales, candy sales, Teacher Appreciation Month, and, of course, the always well- received Little 500 were only part of the many projects spon: sored by the organization.

Students were impressed with the musi- cal and the elaborate stage set- ting. More hard work was pro- duced by the Thespian Society in the spring when it helped with the GHS musical, My Fair Lady. Members built sets and coached less experienced ac: tors and actresses in character development. Other spring activities includ- ed the formal initiation of 11 Thespians in April. Initiates were Mike Boltz, Chris Grupp, Marcy Heal, Kathy Hixson, An- gie Jacobs, Kasey Oster, Traci Pence, Gay Penland, Mike Pe- ters, Molly Wappes, and Debbie Young.

At the initiation meet- ing, the new club members were blindfolded and hot sauce was poured over the tortilla chips that they had to eat while their hands were tied behind their backs. The club sponsored two dances to raise money. Mem- bers also conducted a bake sale and pinata raffle at a boys varsi- ty basketball game. Deanna Getts was president of Spanish Club, while Doug Ahr served as vice-president. Kelly Vancil assumed the duties of secretary, and Todd Miller was the club’s treasurer. To celebrate the end of an- other ‘‘bueno ano, ’’ members of Spanish Club dined at Chi Chi’s restaurant in Fort Wayne. 8 Spanish students earn honor status After a few years of dorman- cy, Spanish Honor Society was reinstituted at GHS for the 1983-84 school year by the club sponsor, Mrs. Shirley Wallace. Consisting of third and fourth year Spanish stu- dents who maintained at least a B average in those years, Spanish Honor Society con- tained an elite eight members. Leading those members were the following officers: 32 Sharon Brown, president; Jeannie Brown, vice-presi- dent; Doug Sarrazine, secre- tary; Kris Relue, treasurer. A formal initiation ceremo- ny was conducted at the be- ginning of the year for the new members, and a Christmas party was staged at the home of Sharon and Jeannie Brown. The club also sold bunuelos, a kind of elephant ear, at the Lit- tle 500 in the spring.

Students of the Week, a Headstart Christmas party, and a teacher staff appreciation breakfast were a few of the pro- jects undertaken by National Honor Society.

Fergy lives mom's dream Diana Ferguson's mother had a dream of being a ballet dancer, but never had the opportunity. So, to a certain extent, she lived out her dream through her two daughters. Diana, or Fergy as her class: mates know her, began dancing when she was four years old. She took ballet and character dance lessons at the Patricia Krus School of Dance all the way through high school. Diana’s older brothers, Brent and Tom, and her older sister, Julia, also took lessons from Patsy Krus; therefore, they all have per- formed together. “The best part of dancing was performing with my brothers and sister,” Fergy reminisced. : Besides dancing, Diana was ac- tively involved in volleyball, bas- ketball, and track during her high school years. Her favorite sports were track and volleyball. A per son who likes to be busy, Diana enjoys the self-discipline and sportmanship that these activi- ties have to offer. 52 Seniors LIZABETH GETTS—Thespi- Club 9: 12: Spanish Club 9, 10; National Honor Society 10:12, Secretary , President 12; Y-Teens 9,10; Student es 11,12; Swing Choir 9,10: Volleyball 9-12: Basketball 9-12: Track 9-12, All-Con- ference Track Team 9-12: Basketball Homecoming Candidate 12; Miss Garrett Candidate.

Prom 6 1 after change of site Observance of Senior Week began with a traditional senior banquet at Shippy’s Steak House, where class awards were announced by senior Offi- cers. Class of '84 voted to have Kathy Feagler act as class sec- retary for the first reunion in 1989. Singing of the class song, “We've Only Just Begun,”’ by Patty Hile, Mary Hile, Kathy Feagler, Brad Johnson, and Todd Gibson ended the senior banquet. In years past, the opening of Senior Week had been the ju- nior-senior picnic at Pokagon State Park. When the location of the picnic was changed to Feick Park in Garrett, few ju- niors or seniors signed up to at- tend, causing the event to be canceled. Highlight of senior awards night May 16 came as Susan Getts and Kevin Thrush, Citi- zenship Award winners, pinned the star representing Garrett High School’s 100th graduating class on the school banner as all their classmates watched. Many graduates earned special recognition at awards night.

Though sometimes our spirit was down And it seemed like no one cared, We all walked in others’ shadows Hoping to find ourselves. Now we are seniors Half way to tomorrow With memories of yesterday. We have walked down many hallways. In doorways we have stood. We have cheered when we've lost And cried when we've won. Now the time has come to say goodbye. Is it really the end? Only for those who choose to stop. But we must all continue to grow In our hopes and dreams. We will make them reality. For we are seniors Only half way to tomorrow And growing more each day.

Sophomores 72D Neer eee Freshman bow hunters practice all year Bow hunting can be a very tiring and time-consuming sport. It is enjoyed by many people all over the country, but just in Indiana alone there are some 43,000 bow hunters, including Scott Bowers and Bill Freeze, two GHS freshmen. Some people think all you have to do is get out your bow, shoot a few rounds, and you are ready to go. But you need to practice all year like Bill and Scott do. Scott stated, “I enjoy hunting not only with my bow but with my firearms also. | also think many people take hunting altogether too lightly. They put hunters down because some of us kill only for fun. What about those who hunt for food? We actually help the environ- ment when we pay $10 for a deer hunting license or when we buy arrows. A part of that money goes toward helping to preserve wildlife by setting aside national and state parks.” Bill has many of the same opinions as Scott but also stated, “I can’t understand why anyone would kill an animal just for the heck of it. People who do that shouldn't be allowed to hunt or even own a gun or bow. I like to go out early in the morning and watch and wait for a big ol’ deer to come walking toward my stand. When it does, you couldn’t begin to know or understand what is going through my mind, but if | kill a deer, it’s for food not for fun.”’ 7 i Darryl Albright Amy Baker David Barry Heidi Berkeiser David Bevilacqua Kevin Bloomquist Mary Bock Chaney Boles David Boltz Scott Bowers Brian Bowman Aaron Boyer 76 Freshmen 3 ?

A new teacher, Mrs. Patsy Greven, arrived at GHS a week before school started. At the end of the first semester, Mrs. Greven resigned to move with her family to New York state. Her successor, Mr. Gary Gerke, was completing his student teaching assignment in the band classes when asked to be the new choir director. Many students went to the district voice contest at Bishop Luers February 4. Juniors Frank Weller and Molly Wappes placed first in district solo contests and went to state. Molly received a first place rating and Frank earned second in state competition. Limited Edition swing choir performed on the ‘‘Wayne Roth- geb Show” on 21 Alive televi- sion again this year but was dis- appointed at not being asked to perform at Bishop Luers Swing Choir Invitational.

GHS’s second dinner theater production on Nov. 11 featured a Kansas feast in a relaxed and homey atmosphere. After eat- ing, the crowd was entertained with the timeless story. In this well-known tale, a girl named Dorothy is whisked away to a beautiful, yet danger- ous, land that she explores in search of a way home to Kan- sas. Dorothy finds friends and adventures on.her magical jour- ney. “The cast took a magical journey, too ... down the road of success,’ enthused director Stormy Klecka. ‘I’m pleased and very proud of all the kids. They did very well—I’m glad to say I’m a part of them.”’ With a lot of minor and not so minor problems, the musical was both fun and a lot of work. But the main goal was reached: it pleased the audiences. A lot of the actors in the cast were relatively new to the GHS stage. There were many musi- cal and dance scenes, which were choreographed by Nata- sha and Nina Tschebykin. The GHS actors and audi- ences got a taste of drama, comedy, music and dancing. The play has been viewed hun- dreds of times over the years, but Garrett student actors gave unique interpretation and char- acter to a beloved classic. Praised Ms. Klecka, ‘‘They gave a new meaning to the word comedy and proved true the legend of acting itself: Let ev- eryone who sees you smile.”’ All-School Production TOP RIGHT—Discussing which way to go, Dorothy (Debbie Young), Tinmé (Chris Grupp), and Scarecrow (Frank Weller) weigh all the odds.

Cridders develop unity The 1983 football season was a season of new experiences. These included a new coach, Richard Boyd; a new confer- ence, the NECC; a new playoff system, the cluster; and new players. Under Coach Boyd's di- rection, the team began weight training in July during one of the hottest summers on record. Though their record of 2:8 may indicate an unimpressive season, individual players re ceived state and area recogni- tion. Earning state honors were Brad Johnson as defensive back and Scott Mason as defen- sive center. They were named to UPI's All-State AA first team. “The theme behind the 1983 football team was one of uni- ty—accomplishments as a team”’ said coach Boyd. Coach Boyd continued, “As the season progressed the play- ers not only grew as a football team but they grew as individ- uals. This growth is what athlet- ics is all about and something that cannot be taken away.” VARSITY FOOTBALL SCOREBOARD Garrett Opponent 0 East Noble 14 7 Eastside © 6 6 Prairie Heights 8 12 Northridge 27 | Central Noble 6 6) West Noble 14 7 Lakeland 35 14 Leo a3 20 Angola 34 rs DeKalb 21 2 wins 8 losses BOTTOM LEFT—Under the watchful eye of an official, quarterback Brad Joh son launches a long pass to halfback Craig Lepard (out of camera range).

JH Volleyball WAS Sectional crown highlights basketball season Coach Denny Feagler led his varsity basketball squad to a su- per 1983-84 season highlighted by a sectional tourney crown and a 21-5 record. Seniors Doug Shippy, Wes: ley Warstler, Darren Peters, and Jay Lapsley, and junior John Bodey started most of the sea- son. These five veterans played well together, were unselfish with the ball, and when Shippy or Bodey wasn't hitting, th e oth- ers were. Senior Doug Kelham, a sometimes starter, became a valuable sixth man who could be counted on to provide a scor- ing punch when needed. Coach Feagler analyzed the Railroaders’ five losses game by game as follows: ‘‘We lost to Woodlan and Elmhurst simply because we were overpowered. 146 eS Se eee ee eee Lack of preparation caused the loss to Central Noble. Our loss to Eastside came about be- cause our squad was mentally and physically drained as that was our third game in three nights. The East Noble loss was due to their strong second half and their success in outplaying us.) However, varsity players not only met their season win-loss goal, captured a sectional championship, and advanced to the final game of the regional tourney, but also stomped all over the DeKalb Barons in the regular season and then did it again in sectional play. ‘This accomplishment,’ said coach Feagler, ‘‘gave me and the team a great feeling of pride.” For the second year Doug Shippy and John Bodey made the NECC all-conference first team.

Coach Greve commented that if the freshmen keep up their winning ways, they will be a good group of players in the coming years at Garrett. “They're a great bunch of kids,’’ Coach Greve added. ‘‘I enjoyed working with them.” 2-14 record doesnt tell whole story Eighth grade basketball team finished the season with a 2-14 record, but coach Ron Weimer said, “‘I felt the team was better than the record showed.” Leading scorer Lance Baugh- man totaled 171 points (10.6 average for 16 games).
