fuumwwk ' Sisfigflsrif Slifiiilffs iff The 1982 Rams Bowling team: C. Donatone, N. Patel, B. Ingram, L. Maass, and D. Daniels Brunswick is only one of the many neighborhood alleys sponsering leagues. Some bowlers left their balls in the ball return, ready to play. 114 - Bowling Bowlers Win By One A new addition to the GMHS sports scene this year was the bowling team. Although not many students were aware that it existed during the season to support the players, they made a name for theirselves when they captured the state title. The 1982 High School State Tournament was held at Har- mony Lanes in Colorado Springs. lt was fierce competition, but the Rams came through in the last game to win by just one pin, and cinch the title. The team consisted of junior Dave Daniels and seniors Nikunj Patel, Larry Maass, Brett Ingram, and Chip Donatone. The team, coached by Mrs. Wil- ma Kelley, was picked according to the top five averages in the junior league bowled on Fridays. The success at the tournament was the result of a total team effort with every bowl- er coming through for the team when he was needed. Individual honors were bestowed upon Daniels for Boys High Series Handicap and Donatone for High Series Scratch lscore without a handicap.l

A little fat Roman Senator, wearing sandals, a laurel wreath, and a toga to cover his fat belly is their mascot. His native language is alive and growing in the vocabulary of the club members. They must either be presently in a Latin class to participate, or have com- pleted two full years of the language. As Gail Roberson stated, UI do love Latin. It,s an excellent study in ety- mology and increases your vocabulary. Quite a few traditional activities were held in addition to monthly meetings. The club members were united at an Initiation meeting on October 16. Most of the stu- dents came in costume, The new members entertained the 'old' with the skit, A Trip Through Roman Histo- ry, complete with sound effects, They also enjoyed a Roman feast. The pizza dinner meeting was a popular event also. The final get together was the Senior Ban- quet at the Athenian restaurant. Club members said good-bye, celebrated the Seniors' graduation, and pro- nounced the graduating students as guests from then on. Something new was that the Latin Club president attended the all-school President's Club meeting. Club members put their culinary skills into practice by making decorated cupcakes. They were sold throughout the year to raise money for club jerseys. These gold and purple T-shirts had a big Faticus on them and written in Latin they said GMHS Latin Club. .r 1 A kk to I Club members and sponsor line up for a 'family portrait' at the Initiation Meeting.

Orators Show Skills The Forensics class this year was taught by Barbara Logan. In addition to a new teacher, the class participated in some excit- ing events. The team was active in competi- tive meets from all over. In December 1982, an Invitational was held in Colorado Springs, while in March 1983, another Invitational was held in Littleton. Similarly, the team participated in other activities as well. For instance, they would often have breakfast together before going to a meet. The members have even gone skiing. Logan stated, The class becomes very close, and social benefits are gained. Forensics also became involved in perfor- mances for the Language Arts quad during the spring. In addition, they held fund rais- ers, like many other groups, in order to help pay for registration fees. The type of speech the students were involved in included, extremental, original, Lincoln Douglas Debates, oral interpreta- tion, fwhich included poetryl, humor, drama, and duet acting, all in the scope of Forensics. The Forensics class had mainly Juniors in it, however, any Sophomore, Junior, or Sen- ior was allowed to participate in the class. Similarly, first year students were usually regarded as novices, while second and third year pupils were considered the varsity. ' I Forensics officers, Karen Painter, Bruce Cooper and Pat Singson.
