Suddenly Nothing's Quite the Same, Greenville Senior High School 111 N. Hillcrest St. Greenville, MI 48838 Volume 61 Iff e xme to GREENVM.E DANISH FESTIVAL CITY Suddenly, Nothing's Quite the Same We're all stuck in a whirlpool of change Where nothing remains quite the same Everyone sees the waters revolve And all get caught up in the game. None of us can stop the momentum it has We start wading but end feeling blue Things seem so useless, they must be unreal But all of the changes are true. Or maybe the currents will convert their course And be greeted with open arms All the world will look beautif I then When there's no reason for any alarm. But good or bad these changes occur Just as the waters revolve in the pool And in this book we are going to show How these changes occured in our school. ___ -D.E.C.- ABOVE: Enthusiam ran high at the Homecoming pep assembly. LEFT: Roles reversed, the senior Powder puff cheerleaders were R. Guernsey, J. Wilson, W. Titche, and D. Lee. Missing from the picture was S. Gerke. ABOVE: Workmen replaced the doors of the school on the north end of the building. Of NT Tfit UU 11 n A 0 U C UN RIGHT: Edith Laisure and Teresa Kropew-nicki, seniors, appear to be bored stiff during one of the meetings of the advisory council. Changes are happening all a-round us. Some we realize, others we don’t. Many of the changes that happened this year in our school were superficial such as the carpeting and repainting of all the rooms. Others weren’t so easy to recognize like the new rules that were added to the Lowdown and many just tend to be overlooked as the freshmen were this year. No one really knew they were gone. It was just another change that didn’t greatly affect anyone. Unfortunately, there were those few changes that did touch us all tremendously. The deaths of two Greenville High School students Greg Blumberg, sophomore, and Doug Misner, junior. Though the year started out on a low note, it didn’t stop everyone from “enjoying schoof once again, with our old vice-principal, Mr. Jerry Cushman, gone and a new vice-principal, Mr. Tom Matchett on the staff, many changes were inevitable, Instead of the usual “dance done by Mr. Cushman for the Homecoming pep assembly, it was done by Wayne ritche who, in all respectability, looked very good in nis skirt. The renovation of the building made the school a lot nicer place to spend seven hours a day, five days a week. During the summer workers struggled to lay carpeting in all the classrooms except the fab and auto shop areas, and put tresh coats ot paint on the walls to match. The ceilings were lowered and finished throughout the entire building. The remodeling of the school was pushed by the school bo school board to help conserve and cut down on the cost of energy used to heat the school this winter. A new experiment was tried on the student body this year. Advisory councils were set up and they met for a total of 37 minutes each week. The administration believed that this would bring teachers and students, and even students themselves closer together. In some cases it did, and in other cases students spent the time being bored stiff. The student body only got out of the advisory councils wnat they put into them. ABOVE RIGHT: Mary Stuldreher, senior, fights off her latest boyfriend. He was a real good looker, wasn't he? LEFT: Wayne Titche, senior, replaced Mr. Cushman in doing the traditional Homecoming cheer. 5 RIGHT: Mr. Tom Matchett became our new vice-principal this year. BELOW: Mr. Kent Ingles was the new Varsity basketball coach added to the staff. Many of the students used and were helped by the addition of a computer in the school. Mr. Carlton’s room, in the math department, housed the computer that was connected by telephone to the main computer bank in Grand Rapids. Students programmed information into the machine to get answers such as what their best occupational choice would be to how to key down algae for Doc Budge’s Microbiology class. Replacements in the coaching stall were also a factor in the changes that happened this year, along with the many others. Mr. Kent Ingles replaced Mr. Larry Taylor as Varsity Basketball coach. The fans were hopeful that the team might be on their way to a better season then they had had in the past few years. With the retirement ot Miss Jan Howard as Girls’ J.V. Basketball coach, Miss Sue Banks, also a new teacher, took over the position in that area. So, for the students as well as the faculty, this year came to prove that- Suddenly, Nothing Was Quite the Same. RIGHT: The Middle School was completed last year, thus moving the freshmen from here to there. LEFT: The new ala carte line was a new addition to the food services provided by the school.

To hear the music of the band at the dance. After every home football and basketball game our school held a dance in the cafeteria. These social events were sponsored by the various clubs and organizations to build profits for their dwindling treasurys. Only the scores of the games told whether the student body was there to recount the plays and seconds of the game, or to recover from the loss of it. Altough the losses were apparent on the faces of the players and fans, expressions soon changed as the band grew louder and the crowd got into the beat of the music. Dances provided a great set-up for the guys to make their Friday night dates. They could watch the game and attend the dance for hardly anything at all. The guys were not the only ones that profited. The girls could let that special guy know that she liked him and that she was available, even though they had to be forward enough to ask him to dance first. The Bump, the Hustle, slow dancing, and the Swing were only a few of the styles used by the students at the dance. But there always seemed that there was more couples on the floor during a slow dance, than there was when a fast number was playing. Maybe this was only one of the indications of what most GHS students had on their minds most of the time.

Guys On Girls And Other Bizzarre Subjects EDITOR'S NOTE: We feel involvement is the major factor in the production of a good yearbook, and to make this year's the very best, we have included this page of students' opinions. GUYS ON GIRLS... The underclassmen are better looking than the upperclassmen ... They're very friendly and pretty good looking ... The looks are distributed pretty well through the classes but the underclassmen are rather 'loose' ... Not bartaverage I guess ... They're always going to be better in another town though ...

Vte're missing out on all the initiations ... It really doesn't matter to me ... It's good. The halls aren't as crowded ... 'I don't like it. There's less girls to choose from and there is less excite-ment-but they go hand in hand ... Boring. There s no one to pick on anymore ... ! love it because we no longer have to share the guys. 12 13 Starvation — Not At Our School MEDICAL FACT: Adolescents these days are getting only 10% of the recommended daily requirements of B2, iron, and niacin With what most students eat, it's surprising that they get even that much. A majority of the edible material taken in by people now-a-days is fast foods. Out of the 23 billion burgers sold at MacDonald's, it's estimated that 21 billion of those were bought here in Greenville, and it's impossible to estimate how many pizzas to go have been ordered just within the last year. With this new category of foods, we also have a new style of eating-with our fingers-or any other object that can speed up the amount of time used for consumption. All manners and restraint taught to the high school students as youngsters seem to have been forgotten long ago. It looks like everyone is getting richer over the controversy. The food chains are booming and dentist are making more fillings than ever before. The toothpaste industry may not be rising but the chances of the demand for their product falling is quite unlikely. Maybe kids will grow out of this 'stage' but then again, maybe none of them will ever live long enough to see. At least, if they're hurting themselves they're having a good time doing it and isn't that the thing that really counts. ABOVE: A thick, hot pizza always hits the spot no matter what time it is. UPPER RIGHT: Cynthia Weger, junior, demonstrates how to hold a caramel apple and get the candy off your teeth at the same time. LEFT: Lisa Standlick, junior, cautiously eats the food from the hot lunch line. ABOVE: Jeff Wilson, senior, shows why manners are so important when eating out. LEFT: Mary Stuldreher and Sharon Taylor, seniors, try to find out whose mouth can blow the biggest bubble. Mary won. ABOVE RIGHT: Bill Small, senior, shows that the aftermath of the pie eating contest is more fun then the contest. Moods — All Felt, Some Displayed With so many different situations encountered in school, there were just as many moods that were felt. Being up one moment and down the next wasn't unusual. You name it and someone felt it this year. One of the major feelings was exhaus -tion. There never passed a class where one of two heads didn't hit the table sometime. It always seemed the only period where students were fully awake was lunch. The day always affected the atmosphere in the school. Monday's never seemed to excite anyone. That may just be from Iona weekends though. It never failed to find smiles on Friday and teachers learned not to plan much on the last day of the week. The reasons for the changes in moods were plenty. Boyfriend girlfriend problems, or lack of them, generally were a large contributor. It was found that if the teachers were in a good mood that the students left class with the same perspective for the day, but it always seemed if the students were in good moods that the teachers weren't necessarily when the bell rang to dismiss class. RIGHT: Keith Kerbyson, senior, stares into space thinking. Something we all tried to get out of as much as possible.

Another Humdrum Friday Evening It's Friday night and you're cruising with your gal at your side in your very own car! As you cruise, millions of ideas go through your mind as to what you re going to do next. Is she in the mood?-Should I grab some food? Should we celebrate?-Or end the date? Should I make a pass?-Or hit the gas? Maybe take in some views-lf so let's cruise. You finally decide to take a trip through town. You wave to some friends who are also driving around and then start partying. As you cruise, you see the golden arces and pull in to buy a few very necessary items such as fries, pies, and shakes. You make it a leisurely meal, laughing between mouthfuls and occasionally during one. When you re both done you escort your girl back to the car and like all perfect gentlemen, open up the door for her. As you rev up the engine you try to decide on which spot to nit tonight. Maybe the cemetery, maybe the park. No- that's becoming to risky. You finally decide on Stakes Road. Yea-that's the place. So you casually drive around the lake and pull off the road on the south end. You take out the tape that has been playing and put on some mellow tunes. You pull into a deserted drive and shut off the engine. Things begin to get thick when you notice the time. Your gal has to be in by midnight so you start the car and put your foot to the floor and the pedal to the metal. You reach your destination and walk her to the door. You iave her a Iona good-night kiss and tell her you II call tomorrow. (Sure!) You hop back into your car and pull onto the road thinking, 'These Friday nights are really getting monotonous.' Stopping to talk or pick up friends happened many times each day. When the folks were home, the next best place to park was the truck. 18 A common scene was McDonald's lit up at night with lots of activity inside. Although students know the main roads in town well, there are many country roads, such as Stakes, known better. A long kiss good night is necessary to top off the perfect evening. % Senior Goes For Chicken Record The Agriculture classes got off to a roaring start with Lee Rassmunsen, setting a goal to raise some baby chicks to 5 lb. chickens in 7 weeks. He did this to prove that there have been many advances made in the agricultural area. Lee did not reach his goal, but he had chickens weighing on the average of four and a half to five and a half pounds. This year agriculture students were active in many contests and leadership activities, which helped them to extend their knowledge of business and farming. Agriculture covers a wide range of Beth Peterson, senior, stands in front of the i° s 'rom farming all the way to ousiness class wondering what to do next. management and veterinary work. Rod Selesky senior pays arave attention to Mr. Bremer, while Jeff Sennas, senior, mind is in the back of the room. Mr. Bremer smiles at student remarks to what he's doing. Ag. students listen atentitively to what Mr. Bremer has to say to fellow students, hoping it will answere some of their questions. 22 23 Industrial Arts Very Rewarding Industrial Arts provides creative, self-fulfilling, revyarding, and challenging experiences, all of which helps to build a complete person. Generally this is accomplished through the building of unique projects, such as grandfather clocks, Gun Cabinets, Tresle tables, cast automobile parts and piston lamps. There were some projects which were required, usually of beginning students, such as a hanging spoon rack. This was done to establish basic skills and knowledge of materials and machines being used by industry. Later there is time for the students to design or use the available project plans for projects that might be more appealing and useful to them. More female students have started to take shop classes. It has helped them to become alittle less dependent on someone else for help when it might not be available. The Industrial Arts Department offers skills which can be used in future vocational work. Mike Wyckoff and Dan Ingraham, seniors, working on a surface grinder. Senior, Jeff Eastman, works on a band saw making an irregular cut. 24 Mike Zank, junior, plans a board to thickness on a surface planer.

Art Department Decorates School The Art Department was very busy this year trying to bring alive the school spirit in the student body. They decorated the commons for Halloween and Christmas and painted the sets for the school plays. Mr. Blinn said his students showed alot of enthusiasm this year, especially his second year art students who really enjoyed ceramics. Tammy Newland, senior, who had been in art for three years said that the class was very enjoyable. She also stated that the first year art students spend alot of time drawing their fellow classmates while they're learning about drawing hands, heads, and bodies. According to Tammy, the second year art students learn how to do silkscreening, pottery, and oil painting. In the third year pf art, students can do anything they ve learned in the first two years. No matter what year of art they're taking all the students have to do daily reports and bibliographies. Despite that fact, many of the students enjoyed that art class and took it for more than one year. Kalene Shank, senior and Debbie Ferguson, sophomore, work on animal drawings in sixth hour art class. Tammy Newland, senior, works on variety show posters while sophomore, Jane Harper looks on. Craig Williams and Brian Brewster, seniors, make stain glass windows in sixth hour art class. 26 During the Christmas season, the windows in the commons were adorned with decorations such as this Santa Claus and Reindeer done by the art students. Debbie Sain{ junior, and Chris Craig, sophomore, work on paintings in art class. Sophomores, Sandy Stoike and Chris Craig and juniors, Debbie Sain and Patty Laper, show what a typical day of art class is like. 27 Model Office Good Practice Business students had an opportunity this year to work 50 hours in a model office situation. Cosmetics were made and sold by the Serpendipity Company. In this company seven positions were filled: receptionist, simulator, office manager, sales manager, accountant, accounting clerk, and shipping clerk. Although there were difficult times, there were also humorous ones. The frustration of books that didn't balance and shipments supposedly late will be looked back on and laughed at. Six girls operated the office for five weeks at a time while the rest of the students were customers. After five weeks the students rotated. The model office provided a flow of office practice while requiring the cooperation of all employees. Bookkeeping did small projects throughout the year which demonstrated how to keep a set of books for different types of occupations. Students in D.E. 1 layed out and furnished a store or mall ana located it in a certain town and where they felt it would do the most good. Lori Mosier, SharonTaylor, and Liz Pend-rick, seniors, run the Serpendipity Company in Model Office Practice. Laura Powers, junior, receives help from Mr. feed on a bookkeeping project. Joanne finch, junior, is hard at work in the background. 28 29 30 More Emphasis Placed On Basics Reading? Writing? Were these some of the problems in the English Department this past year? Not really, according to Mr. Tom Schmiedicke. We tried to encourage teachers to have students read and write more, such as, doing reports, to help work on gramatic structure and eliminate bad habits. Three classes were eliminated this year partly because they were considered soft classes ; classes that weren't doing much for student learning. Those three were. Communication Skills, General Literature, and Poetry. Returning this year after a two year absence, was Mr. Kent Ingles, who took over teaching Vocational English. Dee Acker, sophomore, listens closely to Mr. Tom Schmiedicke's lecture, during 6th hour Forms of Literature. Paul Hamilton, junior, gets away with some talking during Mr. Kent Ingles' Vocational English class. 31 VwUkcnt pm o Mexico; France Are Explored Fundamentals were the basis for French I and II as the students learned the French language. Mrs. Shirley (Madame) Lamb said that French III wrote and designed their own ads and did a study on the animals of French speaking countries along with learning about Paris for a trip to France in March. An indepth unit on cooling and a French folk song, which was obtained from an exchange student, also occupied many hours in French III. A French citizen also made a guest appearance to tell about life in France. A French art unit and careers pertain- ing to foreign languages were investigated by students in French IV. The French students also took a trip to France last spring. Spanish I and II students played Spanish games and furthered their knowledge of vocabulary and verb conjugation. In the meantime, Spanish III and IV students studied Don Quixote and different types of literature The construction of Spanish towns and writing of com-positions in Spanish were also attempted successfully. Mexican cooking and food units were tackled in the last part of the year. The trip to Mexico in March was one to be remembered.

Jeff Bidelaman, Karen Peterson, and Mark Curtis, juniors, are making lottery tickets for a Spanish lottery in the class. Mrs. Kroodsma starts the day off in the right fashion by taking roll, in one of her Spanish classes. 33 Chris Switzer, sophomore, and Madame Lamb discuss a problem in French II. Math Department Receives “Mini” The biggest attraction this year in the Math Department was the R.E.M. (Regional Media Center), the Mini Computer Terminal , as most of the students came to know it. The computer terminal was located in, Mr. Ron Carlton's room. Mini (the computer) helped many students that had problems in Math, Science, English, Agriculture, and other areas, such as career counseling, and information about colleges. Mini did help people who had small problems in Spanish and French class. In these subjects students had to hear the sounds of certain words. All teachers had limited time. There were not enough teachers compared with the npmber of students who required help. Mini wasj fine assistant for teachers as the year progressed. Mr. Carlton and Mini were in service at 7:00 am until 3:30 pm each day for all the student body. The main computer was located in Grand Rapids in tne Woodland Mall. The terminal had 11 operators ready at anytime for students' service. There are 1400 programs ( a prpgram is a topic within a certain subject) in this computer system. There were 40 terminals connected to the main computer. Mr. Richard Diehl, Math teacher, had night classes every Tuesday night for the few students who had Senior math. All the material was new and was not normally covered in regular class hours. Seventy-five students went as a team to Ferris State College in April, to particpate in the Michigan Math Competition. Mini is very helpful. Leroy Northam, senior, shows Don Thompson, sophomore, how much help the terminal really is. 62x + 8x4 - 9x + 3 = 8x 5 + x2 = ? and this is basic math ? , said junior, Jeff Fuller. 34 35 More Topics In Home Ec. Miss Sue Banks, the new Home E. C. teacher had five different classes that she is teaching: Child Growth, Home and Household Furnishing, Food Service, Family Relations and. Consumers Education. Each Class has it's own activities. Discovering what children are like, handicaped children, and child abuse were some of thetOpics discussed in Child Growth. Growing up. Lifestyles, and Marriage were topices discussed in Family Relation. How toput basic structures together house styles and how to decorate the home were topics discussed in Home and Household Furnishings. Learning how to buy a car, money life and how to take care of payments were some of the topics discussed in Consumer Education. Finding jobs. Management skills, and making foods were topics done in Food Service. Linnaea Eastin, junior, said It's good experience for guys and girls to learn how to cook . The only thing she said she hated when they made food that she did not like. Pauline Robinson, junior, said I really like Food Service it gives me a chance to make other foods than just hamburgers and french fries.' Making cookies fro the Ala-Carte line are Grace Guinnup, junior, and Debbie Raymond, senior. Kim Zandi, junior, folds dish towels for Food Service class. Waiting to use the oven are Debbie Raymond, senior, and Grace Guinnup, junior. 36 Kris Switzer, sophomore, returns a serve as her partner Phil Reed, junior, watches, and senior, Craig Sherick and junior, Mary Musgrave are ready. Al Stadlberger, junior, is trying to get his serve in during a co-ed volleyball game. Cliff Bartrum, senior, is concentrating on getting a bullseye in field archery. Miss Judith Hamiton, girls P.E. teacher, is handing out sheets to study. Chris Foote, junior, is returning a serve as senior, Rick Weber looks on. Junior, Don Rickett, and sophomore, Mike Godfrey wait for the serve in a game of bad-mitton. Mark Brenner, junior, studies his rule sheets before playing volleyball. PE Classes Try New Activities The serve is returned, the ball floats over the net, a player goes up after it, a hand stretches out, and the ball is, sent on a downward flight to the tune of spike'! Volleyball was one of the many co-ed activities tried this year in Physical education class. One student stated 'It gives you a chance to participate against the girls and see what their ability really is. Another student said, 'I really enjoyed participating with the boys, but it can get boring if you play too many days of it. The boys gym class tried a new sport called 'Field archery'. Field archery combined many more skills than 'target archery' that was tried in the past. Students had to be able to shoot different distances, and heights, between trees, and down hills. Mr. Frank Stankey, P.E. instructor planned to keep this unit going in the future. Tne girls gym class also experienced success with a new kind of dancing called Danish Gymnastics. During the past few years they did Sweedish Gymnastics. Danish gymnastics had more dance routines that could be tried and a bigger variety than in past years. Chris Foote, junior, tries to return the birdie as senior, Rick Weber looks on. 39 Troy Davis and Darryl Rogers, juniors, are busy mixing a solution in Mr. Walthorn's 3rd hour chemistry class. Sally Fox, senior, is busy recording her observations during an experiment in Mr. Anderson's 6th hour chemistry class. 40 Harold Hargrove, junior, boils water for an experiment in chemistry. Craig Heydertberk, junior, takes the temper-ture reading of a solution in chemistry class. Shannon Schantz and Jelane Kennedy, juniors, team up to finish their experiment before the end of the hour. Observation Is Very Important Sulfuric Acid, spirocjyra or a trip to the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, and if that doesn't interest you how about trying your hand at dissections. These are just a few of the many interesting areas of study offered bv the Science Department, headed by Mr. Robert Budge. Laboratory experiments played an important part in the science classes this year, as students learned the value of recording accurate observations. Students taking classes in this department study everything from fruit flies to the human body. The Advanced Biology class traveled to the rivers and swamps to collect specimens of algae for their annual collections. 41 New Classes For Social Studies The Senior class of 1980 will have something to look toward to. One semester of Senior Government will be added to the list of graduation requirements, and a one semester course in Consumer Ecomonices. Although these plans are for 1980, the Social Studies Department has already started to evaluate textbooks. The recommendations came from, Miss Lynn Brophy Mr. William Martin, and Mr. Larry Taylor, and Mr. Neil Sch-machtenbercjer, and will go to Miss Helen McBride Curriculum Coordinator, for Greenville Schools. A decision was also made on whether or not the Current Events class would be continued. Anthropology was dropped with the departure of Mr. Scott Kraai. Becky Karlzen, sophomore, enjoys a good joke in her Social Problems class. Mrs. Ruth Hansen from the Community Players puts makeup on the face of Jerry Williams, sophomore, for Mr. Martin's Social Problems class. 42 Juniors, Lori Eismeir, Matt Fox seniors, Sue Fuller and exchange student Caroline Arbdo, listen to a lecture in Psychology class. Chris Mullen, junior, shows her pleasure of having the right answer, while Rhonda Sydow, sopnomore looks on. Kay Kent and Karen Morris, juniors fight over junior, Sue Cameron's U.S. History answers. 43 44 Dale Flanery, senior, is working hard to finish his project just right for Machine Shop. Doing precision work on his vise in Machine Shop is Steve Godfrey, senior. Co-op Program Keeps Growing There were nine vocational programs to pick from at G.H.S. All of them offer ed something for everyone. Students learned anything from building a house to styling hair. One of the benefits of being enrolled in a vocational class was Co-op. Co-op was not a class. It was where the Vocational Director, Mr. Eldon Horton, or the Co-op Coordinator, Mr. Jim Humble, found a student a job connected with their vocational class. For a few hours a day, the student worked for regular wages and credits towards graduation. This course was designed to give the student a taste of the working world. Some new faces appeared in the vocational department this year. Mr. Paul Sharrow took over the Building Trades class, after Mr. Fred Paepke took a teaching position at a college in New York. Miss Sue Banks took Miss Catherine Stall's place in Home Economics, and Mrs. Kathy Engles taught Health Careers, taking Pat Miller s place. Co-op is now running a little over capacity, stated Mr. Horton. We have a good working balance between employers and the school,' he added. According to Horton, the State's dream is to have 65% of the students enrolled in Co-op. Greenville had 66% of the student body in Co-op. When this program started, the directors hoped for 100 students to be involved in Co-op. In 1960 they started with 50 students, so far in the 1977-78 school year, Co-op,had 117 students involved. Horton said, ' We are not concerned with numbers but the quality of the learning experience. Amy Clark, senior, and Kim Zandi, junior, try to make their food look edible. 45 Showing much despair in meeting Spotlight deadlines is Junior, Becky Hodges. Challenges Met By Spotlight Interviews, writing stories, and deadlines were just a few of the challenges that faced the staff of the Spotlight this year. The twenty members of the staff met these challenges and were able to publish a paper once every three weeks The staff members combined their efforts to write feature stories concerning teachers and students, and to write interesting new stories. They sold ads to community merchants so that the paper could still be distributed at no cost to the student body. The Spotlight had co-editors this year; sharing the responsibilities were Kerry Daniels and Kathy Tuinhoff. Dave Sharpe was the Advertising Manager and Chris Sanders was Head Typist. Mr. Varee, advisor, proofreads a story fo the Newspaper as Charles Plantamura. sophomore, looks on. Teresa Kropecnicki, senior, tries to come up with an idea for a story for the Spotlight. Mike Warner, junior, doesn't quite know what to say about getting his picture taken. Hurrying to finish up his story is junior, Neil Mortensen. 46 The 1977-78 Spotlight staff front row: G. Tem-pler, 2nd row: L. Notham, C. Sanders, B. Small, L. Nicholas, K. Daniels, T. Kropewnicki, C. Tuinhoff, B. Hodges, 3rd row: M. Warner, B. Turnball, D. Sharpe, D. Woodman, N. Morten-sen 4th row: Mr. Varee, advisor, D. Lee, R. Uhnavy, C. Plantamura, S. Swart, M. Cogswell, D. Rogers, P. Betts, T. Davis, F. Nicholson. Taking a break from 5th hour Newspaper class is junior, Richard Uhnavy. New Attraction: Color Pages Yearbook got off to an early start with lots of new ideas. With lack at experience it got quite hectic at times, but they managed to pull through, usually by coming in at night and missing a few Pep assemblies.

Succeeds At Convention The purpose of our contests are to develop leadership qualities and learn about agricultural and natural resources.' That sums up Mr. Raymond Bremer's feelings on the FFA Program during Greenville s 2nd year of participation. Bremer Advisor of Greenville's Chapter of Future Farmers of America, adds that Farming is only one phase of the agricultural program. Among the contests available to the FFA this past year were: Big Buck Contest, an ice-fishing, and a trap shoot contest. For one of the officers traveling ventures, Kansas City, Mo. was their destination, for an annual convention.

Monty and Loring Beech start off an F.F.A. meeting with food and beverages. 53 Girls Given Second Chance Walden Woods, Hartland, was the center for much activity this past summer for the Varsity cheerleaders. They learned many new cheers and participated with girls from various cities. The cheerleaders, as always, put on pep assemblies, and cheered at each of them. This involved hours of planning, inclu-king what type of skit to put on, what costumes to wear, who will do what, and sweating it out just before the show. Selling M M's and Reese s is not as easy as it sounds. These money making projects were also difficult for the cheerleaders. They had to decide what to sell, how much to get, what to change and so on. . , Since the freshmen have moved to the middle school, Miss Linda Start only coached the junior varsity and varsity cheerleaders. The loss of the freshmen cheerleaders was felt by mpny. .Senior, Sharon Taylor replied, It s weird. We were used to practicing with them. We felt like something was missing. Tryouts were held twice this year. This way, those girls who did not make it the first time, might make it the second time. Reparations for tryouts were the same as before. The requirements that would have to be performed were: a cheer made up by each person, splits and a double jump, an on the spot cheer, a cheer which they were given a limited amount of time to learn, the school song, and three chants. A few nights of practice after school were also required. All this could make one very nervous and tense. Especially when the final day arrived. Mid-season tryouts were a focal point of the year, but not necessarily a welcome one. Senior, Nancy Cooper remarked, ' [ felt nervous, ana wished they were over. The cheerleaders helped to boost the team's morale and get the spectators more peppy and involved. Sharon Taylor, senior, takes time out during cheerleaaing practice. At the beginning of an assembly a salute to the National Anthem is demonstrated by Nancy Cooper, senior, Barb Sandie, sophomore, Kim Kent, junior, Dee Acker and Callie Black, sophomores, and Janet Clark, senior. J.V. Cheerleaders Have Seasonal Tryouts The Junior Varsity cheerleaders cheered the J. V. football team to a 7-2 victory season this year. The cheerleadinij squad consisted of seven girls: Dee Acker. Callie Black, Julia Green, Lori Kern, Barb Sanaie, Shari Sisson And Lonna Witt-kopp. The girls worked hard selling candy to pay for their new jackets. This year there were tryouts for the basketball season as well as for the football season to give other girls a chance to be cheerleaders. The six girls chosen were: Dee Acker, Callie, Leslie Cook, Julia Green, Barb Sandie,and Lonna Wittkopp. Practicing cheers for the upcoming game is Callie Black, sophomore. Dee Acker, sophomore, works on getting the crowd fired up during a basketball game.

They practiced every night after school for at least an hour. Lori Nicholas head majorette, assumed the responsibility of creating routines. The girls participated in the football and basketball halftimes. For a change of pace the majorettes were more a part of the band and were only featured for one song. During the last home football game they wer featured in a special lights-out performance. This was the highlight of the year as the girls twirled fire batons. The girls also took pafl in the talent show doing a routine to Rock Around the Clock. A clinic was held at Comstock Park which the girls attended for the first time. Nicholas said, It's been a lot of hard work but it was worth it and I'll really miss it.' Twirling her baton as part of a Greenville halftime show is junior, Chris Sanders.

Starting with marching season a change was made in the marching style. The bands attended two competitions and recieved first division ratings at both This was in addition to performing at home football games. Once marching season ended everything was directed toward the concert season. The band performed a Christmas Concert, and then started work on district competition music.

Concert Band Makes Record Concert Band and Symphonic had 1st division ratings at the District and State Festivals. The Pop Concert continued to be the most popular event, with 700 people attending. Mrs. Dee Cook and Mr. Scott Kraii highlighted the performance this year. The Concert Band had a very successful year considering they lost the freshmen class to the Middle School. Director Keith Hudson came up with the solution to this problem. People will have to double up, commented Mr. Hudson, in other words some students will be in both bands. Eight or nine students divided their time between both bands. In doing this they only received one credit, but had the honor of being in two bands. These students have had, to work hard and were good musicans, said Hudson. For the first time in almost 10 years both bands made a record, during their summer vacations. The title is Symphonic Concert Jazz Band. After the success of the Pop Concert, the band practiced for the Spring Concert, this was the last big concert of the year.

The band proved it by winning two 1st division trophies at the Red Flannel Marching Band competition in Cedar Springs and the Newago Invitational. The band also went to Solo and Ensemble competition at Grand Valley State College. The band had a few changes. One was the different flag styles and new flag carriers uniforms. The percussion with the instruments which changed the field marching to go with the music. When the music volume was low the band moved from the audience. When it was high they moved toward the audience. It was a busy year with the band once playing 10 times in two weeks, but it was even busier during the concert season. The band played at the Christmas Concert and the District Band Festival the second week in March. Showing his skill on the trumpet is Bill Barker, junior.

Choral Union also participated in many new activites, such as the major Fall concert, the annual Spring concert, and the annual Christmas concert. The girls competed at several out-of-town Festivals and sang at the Christmas talent show and, area elementary schools.

To learn choral music students had to experience it, listen and watch other choirs; sing every kind of music in different places and participate in as many choral activities as possible. That is why A Cappella choir was involved in over 30 performances this year. A highlight of the ypar was the revision of the variety Show. '£abaret 77 was held in a coffee house' atmosphere.

There was not even a tournament for prestige, nor seasonal average for pride. But the intramual bowling league, newly acquired this year, gave a chance for a good time in a relaxed atmosphere once a week for over an hour, commented Mr. Fendon Dan-kert, bowling advisor. Even though there were just twenty people to fill the lanes, Mr. Dankert felt there was a successful reason for being there. He added, It's just another opp-orunity for kids to get together for recreation and stay on a first name basis. Another intramural sport was basketball, which involved two leagues made up of five teams each. The guys seem to be having a real good time. There seem to be no major problems, just a few broken glasses, commented Mr. Ken Reed, intramural basketball coordinator. Intramural basketball games were played every Monday night with two teams from each league playing, and the other receiving a bye.

A 'Hero saves the community by marrying one of the old people's granddaughters, getting rid of the villain and making it possible to live happily ever after. These student actors came from a variety of lifestyles. Some of them auditioned for acting parts. Others, however just wanted to be on the technical crew. Despite their diversity, all these students worked together, which, according to Johnson, was the main purpose of having the play. Johnson felt that this play was a challenge for him and the students. It was a chance to get to know other students. Johnson said, They worked as a family.

During Thanksgiving, they had aFrench breakfast in the cafeteria where they were served crescent rolls, juice, and hot chocolate. The French Club usually had an activity at least once a month and there was always a good turnout. Some other activities were qt Christmas. They had dinner at Mr. 0 s, a French Banquet where everyone brought a dish to pass; and a cheese tasting party where there were over 23 different cheeses to taste.

Eating out at.a restaurant and enjoying all kinds of Spanish food was how the club started out it's year of activities. The club decided at one of their first meetings, only to have four or five activities throughout the year. A meeting was held December 5 for the members and their parents. The purpose of this was to discuss the trip to Mexico City which was planned for Spring Vacation. A guest speaker was present; Mrs Virginia Greene, a Field Consulant from Hooand, Michigan. For Christmas the Spanish Club held the annual Fiesta. Much had to be planned for this event. So, beginning in late November, they spaent nights after school for one and a half weeks putting together the pinata'. A menu and other entertainment was also planned. With the coming of Spring, the Spanish Club students were busily packing and getting ready for their fun-filled journey. Chaperones were advisor Mrs. Joanne Kroodsma and Miss Mary Malone. The parents were welcome to come along too. In Mexico, the students visited the Shrine of Guadaloupe. This place has a mystical story which is associated with a peasant who was supposedly visited by the Virgin Mary.

Float Towers, Places High Ring selection and a float built too tall were the highlights of an othierwise mundane year for the sophomores. This year the sophomores decided to have two different class rings instead of the usual one. This gave them a better selection and got a favorable reception from most sophomores. The sophomores also had their usual problem with float building. They built their float 1V j feet tall and couldn't get it out of the garage in which they were building it. They also sponsored their annual dance in January and participated in other activities throughout the year.

Staff Displays Many Interests Ding! Ding! Ding! yells the ole alarm dock. 'Get up, get ready, go to school! it says. So begins the teachers' day which is filled with taking daily attendence to washing the supper dishes at home. Or for the men, sitting in the recliner and watching the football game on television. It was an upheavel situation for the staff this year. A few moved to the middle school. Some teachers spend half the day at the high school, the other half at the middle school. The senior high also gained some brand new staff. Among them were: Miss Sue Banks, Home Economics; Mr. Roger Coburn, Orchestra; and Mr. Paul Sharrow, Building Trades. Returning is Mr. Kent Ingles, English. Teachers, like students, also have extra-curricular activities, hobbies, and other jobs. For instance, many teachers are involved in coaching sports, while others are busy in band, choir and orchestra. Publications, clubs,organizations and cheerleading also keep some teachers on the move. Flying airplanes, backpacking, and sno-skiing are only a few of the favorite pastimes of teachers. However, it isn't all fun and games for the teachers. Remember all those long, hard, drawn-out tests you took? Veil, sometimes they were up late just to write them for you. Daily assign-nents had to be planned out too. Over the summer an Advisory committee was formed. Hours of planning took place. The result: advisory groups. These groups consisted of a teacher and an average of 17 students. Meetings usually were held once a week. Many activities were involved. The meaning of all this was to develop a better student-teacher relationship. Finally, after a very long day in the life of a teacher, they can at last crawl in the sack and reply (yawn) Night all!

This years Board studied how the 9th grade students were taking to the idea of being in the Middle School for another year.. The rest of the Board s plans were routine. One of them was the K-12 curriculum study which had always been done in the system, along with the three year teacher contract which expired in June of 1977. An evaluation of the administration was also on the agenda. Advisory groups were developed this year to help students get more acquainted with each other. The Board also discussed ideas of how to change the grading system. Also studied were the possibilities of giving diplomas for majors only ana tests to sophomores entering the high school and the graduating seniors to evaluate them on their high school skills.

The custodians were eaually busy emptying trash, sweeping floors and picking up paper. They nad the difficult task of keeping the class rooms clean. Carpeting on tne floors in most rooms cut down on the custodians work this year. James Winkowski, Head Night Janitor, said cleaning the carpet was Bea Worden, cook and Jill Miller, sophomore, work fast serving lunches. keen once you got use to it. He was required to sweep the floor every other day but he did so everyday because he is a conscientions cleaner. This year the cooks got some suggest ions from the student body for a new variety of food when it was taken to the student council. Even though the cooks received some complaints they worked hard to do a good iob. These people often went unrecognized and were taken for granted, but the school could not run smoothly without them.

On October 1, Greg Blumberg, a sophomore who was an outstanding athlete and student, died from injuries he sustained during the first J.V. Football game. It was the first time in the school’s history that any athlete had died as a result of injuries received in an athletic contest. All hoped that it was the last. Doug Misner, a junior who was very active in a bowling league as well as school, died on October 21 in a car accident when the car he was riding in struck a tree. The loss of these classmates will always be with us as well as the GREG BLLMBERG happy memories we shared, and we hope as time goes by that each is thought of in a special way.

As the school year continued and gradually came to an end, the changes didn’t seem to stop. This year saw the long awaited answer to the hopes of a volleyball team at G.H.S. with the formation of both a J.V. and Varsity Girls’ team. The girls competed in matches with teams from other school districts, but there was no league. The forming of a league was a change that officals were leaving until next year. Some of the weather we experienced this winter, was something that most of us wouldn’t forget too soon. In January, Greenville and the whole state of Michigan was involved in one of the worst blizzards to hit our area in years. In one single day, more than 20 inches of snow fell to the ground. Major expressways, highways, and roads were paralyzed for the good part of four days. Students and teachers resorted to snowmobiles and cross-country skis as modes of transportation. If neither was available, most spent the four days we were out of school in the house staying warm. The Blizzard of ’78 also messed up the schedule for the second day of mid-semester exams. This was the third year in a row that Greenville students had seen the second day of exams postponed because of bad weather. Most students breathed a sigh relief when the State Board of Education made the annouce-ment that we would not be required to make up the missed school days, because the weather had caused a state of emergency. Personal changes became apparent in most of the student body throughout the year. Personalities and attitudes matured. Friendships came and went, and were replaced with new ones. School events dur- ing the year only made the changes occur faster for some and much slower for others. Thus a year that began in the midst of change, and was marked by a slew of “firsts” progressed in much the same manner as it began. Barb Benedict, senior, goes up for a spike as Pam Davis , senior, and Tracy Bulter, junior, attempts to block it. Heavy equipment is needed to clear away all the snow that fell during the Blizzard of ''78'' 216
