I am with myself, I am with friends. They keep me alive in this insane world. They make me laugh,cry. think,wonder, and do what I like best, whatever that might be. 4 Opening Opening They build me up, let me down, love me, hate me, listen and talk. And I couldn’t exist without them. Not here. Not anywhere. 5 When solitude is not enough, and I am no longer by myself, then I love. The world need not know only that we share as one. We complement each other in learning to give and receive, learning to be ourselves and each other. 6 Opening Life is no longer separate, but a quiet confidence, and the remembrance of a look, a touch. And in loving all people, 1 can say I’ve done my share in helping the world. But if at times this love for my brother is lost, then so is hope, and so am 1. Opening 7 Would that I could be the peacemaker in your soul, that I might turn the discord and the rivalry of your elements into oneness and melody. But how shall I, unless you yourselves be the peacemakers, nay, the lovers of all your elements?

Students serve — ‘Give the gift of life.’ The Grand Junction High School Student Council and National Honor Society sponsored a blood bank in conjunction with St. Mary’s Hospital. It was the first ever drive to get students and faculty involved in this service. The theme was “Become a blood buddy.” The drive was coordinated by Dennis Kiefer from the faculty and Shauna Gilmore from the Student Council. The drive began about three weeks prior to the actual day of donation with numerous announcements, posters in the hall and a sign up sheet in the office. The object was to contact and involve as many students and faculty as possible with the units of blood donated to the St. Mary’s blood bank. On Tuesday, April 20 the staff from St. Mary’s set up in room C-6 and 111 people gave a pint of blood. There were approximately 160 people who signed up but some were exempted because of various reasons such as weight, past medical records or something found in the blood sample. The percentage of participation was very good when you realize that only juniors and seniors and faculty could donate since you had to be 17 to participate. It is a project that Student Council, NHS and GJHS can be truely be proud. It was the largest blood drive ever conducted for St. Mary’s. Another projected (pictured below) was voter registration to get those students approaching their 18th birthday to have their names added to the voter registration lists. 20 School Life St Mary’s staff member gets information from Riley Smith.

The drama department presented in their first two productions of the year a serious drama and up-beat comedy. The first production “Flowers for Algernon” deals with the problems of a handicapped person and he surgically advanced to state of extreme mental capability and then back into his prior state of retardation. The department also attempted to couple the production with the inclusion of special education in Grand Junction High School next year. They therefore ask that all classes, especially English classes, to use the play as a springboard into discussion of people’s handicaps. In the second production, the drama department presented an unusual comedy about demons who must possess and corrupt mortals on earth But unfortunately the ones in the play are very inept at their task, and therein lies the humor.

School Life 33 Tim Radebaugh’s valedictorian address Now that we are about to receive our diplomas, we as adults can look on them as our hall pass for the rest of our lives. One important aspect of our high school career has been the friendships that we have formed. I’m glad that we met and found many reasons to get to know each other better and slowly become friends. Our beginning has the beginning of so many kinds of happiness. Friendship is an understanding kind of love. It gives freedom to go other places and see other people. Then, when friends get together again, no matter how long they have been apart, they can take up where they left off. Remember the laughter and good times we’ve shared. There’s so many happy memories that tend to fade with time. Once friends become really close, in mind and heart, then their friendship will live on no matter how far apart they may be, no matter how long they go without meeting. Our class possess strong bonds and feelings of unity. Not just amongst our peers but also with our teachers. There are a few outstanding ones which will be leaving with the class of 1982. Even with these strong bonds of unity each of us has felt free to grow and become strong individuals. I think that we are and what we want We want to have a choice. And when we make decisions through choice, not duty, it has to be better for us. Each of us must find the inspiration and persaverence to strive for full success. For whatever the struggle continue the climb it may be only one step to the summit. Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail. Always remember that Today we follow, tomorrow we lead. I would like to conclude with these words from Diane Westlake. “You are equal to all others Some may have greater talents and power where you are lacking but you are greater in areas where they cannot go do not stop your own growth and progression by trying to emulate or follow anyone. Step out with courage develop all that you are meant to be look for new experiences meet new people learn to add all new demensions to your present and future. You are one of a kind equal to every other person accept that fact live it — use it — stand tall in belief of who you are. Reach for the highest accomplishment touch it — grasp it know it is within your ability live to win in life and you will.” Thank-you 34 School Life m ‘; : : . H V - w- kg • i« . -‘ v . 1 .

GJHS could boast of two Boettcher Scholarship winners in Luke Cyphers and Bruce Haines. This was the first time since 1975 that our school had two Boettcher winners. It was also the third year in a row that we had a senior win this award. The Boettcher is one of the most prestigeous scholarships in the United States as only 40 were given in the state of Colorado. We also have in the senior class a West Point appointment, one National Merit Scholarship winner, ten students who have a 3.90 accumulative GPA or better and 52 seniors who will graduate with academic honors. Instead of one valedictorian the class of 1982 has eight. Bruce Haines, John Brinegar, Skip Larsen, Barbara Livingston, Tim Radebaugh, Jeff Klein, Andy Soelberg, and Charlie Wanebo all had a 4.0 for all three years of high school. Some other honors that have been awarded are the Denver University Alumni Scholarship to Tim Radebaugh, Mike Couch has been accepted to the Peabody Conservatory, and Steve Antonopolus has won the American Petroleum Institute Scholarship. In the sports department the senior class claims three state champions with Shauna Gilmore and Bruce Ward in swimming, Lori Seiler in track and Jo Jo Herrera won second at the State Wrestling Tournament. Gilmore has a full-ride swimming scholarship to the University of Nebraska. In basketball Eric Hawkins was selected to play in the All-State game and will attend Mesa College here in Grand Junction on an athletic scholarship. To cap off the end of their senior year the class of ’82 has planned a trip to California, and many senior members of the Tiger Band will represent GJHS and the state of Colorado at the World’s Fair and Disney World During the summer of 1982.

They also won non-league games over Paonia and Palisade. The Tiger’s league finish seeded them fourth in the District Tournament. The girls opened with a win over Moffat County, but then lost to Fruita. Because the tournament was a double elimination the team dropped into the loser’s bracket and played Central. A win over Central put Grand Junction in the quarter finals against Delta. Despite two regular season wins over the Panthers, Junction was unable to win.

The first two games against Pueblo Central and Pueblo East resulted in the Tigers first defeats of the season. Entering their third game against Fort Collins Poundre the Tigers seemed to pick up the pace, with a small but victoious 2 point spread. Throughout the league games the Tigers remained in the vulnerable first place position winning by an overwhelming margin in the Central and Delta games. However their close rival Fruita Monument slipped by them with a score of 44-46 in overtime, causing a slight upset to Tigers position.

They were senior Eric Hawkins and junior Gary John Cordray. Hawkins, a three year letterman, was the third leading scorer in the Southwestern league. He averaged 15 points per game in league games and 17 points per game for the season. The 6’5” center led the Tigers in field goal percentage with 54%, total points with 281, rebounds with 210 and was second in steals with 41. Cordray was the only junior selected to the first All-Conference team. The 6’2” son of Head Coach Gary Cordray, played both guard and forward for the Tigers this season. Cordray was noted for his outside shooting as he shot 45% from the floor and 68% from the free throw line. He was second in team scoring with 150 points, and led the team in assists with 32. Also selected as Honorable Mention All-Conference was senior Brock Griffin. In the state tournament the Tigers drew Colorado Springs Widefield. The game was a see-saw battle through the first half, ending 22-22 after two quarters. But in the 3rd quarter Widefield outscored the Tigers 17 to 8 on their way to a final score of 64-52.

Several of their games were against varsity teams from class A schools. They also traveled a great deal as they made road trips with the varsity to Pueblo, Fort Collins’ Durango and Cortez. Coached by Dennis Teeters and Sam Provenza the boys showed steady improvement all year long. Probably the highlight of the season was the win at Durango as the J.V.s trailed by as many as 16 points, but with a strong second half capped off by Mike Strobl’s basket at the buzzer they were able to pull out the win. With six seniors on the varsity the younger Tigers will be looked to for important contributions on next year’s team.

The girls basketball season suffered a severe setback before the competition even began. Three girls that would have started were no longer in the program. One had moved, one was injured and one did not come out. Despite this adversity the girls got off to a good start as they won three of their five non-conference games in December. One of their losses was a one-pointer to Montrose. After the Christmas break the Tigers revenged their earlier loss to the Indians with a 40-28 win. But then two league losses to Fruita and Central put the girls in a catch up position. They moved into a tie for second place in the Southwestern League by beating Delta, Durango, and Cortez; while Montrose knocked off Central to create the tie. But then the season took a real nose dive as the girls lost to Fruita and Central again and dropped two one point games to Montrose and Delta. These four losses eliminated the Tigers from any post season play since they had to finish first or second in the league to go on. The girls finished their year against Durango and Cortez as they lost twice on the road. 1982 Varsity basketball team Sitting: Wanda Masters. Shannon Bangs. Gna Allen Kneeling: Lori Seiler.

This is an accomplishment few coaches in the United States can claim. The 25 year vetern coach led his Tigers to a third place finish in a tough Southwestern league. With one week left in the season the Tigers had an opportunity to finish in a first place tie. Central beat Fruita to give the Wildcats their first loss. If Junction could defeat Fruita on Friday and Central on Saturday they could gain the tie. Unfortunately the Tigers lost to Fruita 11 5 and then to Central 11 1. The team won three of their four pre-season games as they swept a twin bill from Aztec, New Mexico and split a double header with Farmington, New Mexico. Then they rolled past three league foes before being upset in Cortez, 4-2. This loss was later avenged with a 13-6 thumping of the Panthers, but it was enough to give the Tigers eventual third place.

Some of the news and sports writing was contributed by juniors who One of the most prestigeous departments for academic achievements at GJHS has been the Journalism Department. The department produces the yearbook and the Orange and Black newspaper. Gary Cordray’s students have won numerous awards in the past and send in copies of the paper to various agencies for evaluation.

Instead of members of the staff being assigned a section of the book as in past years, each person was given individual assignments from any section of the book. The staff of 12 was responsible for collecting information, assigning and taking pictures, and writing copy that they organized into the pages of the 1982 Tiger. Their goal was to record for posterity the events that made up the school year 1981 82 at Grand Junction High School.

Every student in the classes is automatically a member of FHS, but it is their individual decision if they wish to affiliate with the club. One of the primary advantages of the club is that it gives the students a voice into the curriculum so that they feel that the experiences they have in class are more meaningful and educational. For example the Marriage and Family Living class felt that they could learn more from having mock weddings than they could from just talking about it in class. The club and the classes are designed to give the student better understanding of the subject of consumer related matters that apply to all of us in the work-a-day adult world.

Music Student written and produced play The Grand Junction High School drama and music departments joined in tradition to sparkle the stage and dazzle the audience with a musical. To enhance this tradition, the musical this year was student written. Students Joe Brewer, Mike Couch, Randy Haycock, and Dana Taylor colaborated in writing the production “Encore.” Couch, as well as adding dialogue, wrote two original pieces of music. Although the musical was met with set backs, it was well received among the community; drawing one of the largest drama production audiences seen at GJHS for several years. The play comically intertwined the themes of love, preservation of the theatre, and the interaction of human values. This combination of theme was found intriguing by publishing companies which looked into raising the play to a more professional level and the right of publication. “Encore” takes place in an old theatre which is condemed to become a mall. Maggie, a cleaning lady who has worked in the theatre since she was a child, tries to stop the rejuvination. She teaches a group of hard hats how to sing and tries to convince Veronica (the owner) to save the theatre. Complications arise when Maggie falls in love with Preston, a hasbeen actor and Veronicas reluctant star and lover. premiered I Authors Randy Haycock, M� k« Couch. Dana Taylor.
