1H The Emerald City, full of life and col- or, is a place where we obtain the brains, heart and courage to help us on our journey through life. Sheltered from the outside world, we learn and grow in the City while receiving in- struction and guidance to help us along the way. With many forks and obstacles in the road, it is easy to become frustrated and lost. But, the road leads to great things; the rewards at the end are plentiful. When it is time for us to leave the Emerald City, we will be able to choose the road best suited for us. Welcome to the beginning of a wonderful journey. Welcome to the Emerald City ... ■STS IVft 3=771 You'll find he is a wiz of a wiz if ever a wiz there was ... He has been filling our heads with nuggets of knowledge since we were tiny munchkins. He knows everything from the burial place of L. Frank Baum to the colors of the Kansas State license plate. He first in- troduced us to reference books, the card catalog, and the Dewey Decimal System while we were still en- grossed in Dr. Seuss. As we made our journey down the road, he eagerly assisted us with homework assignments, term papers, and special projects. His wisdom, kindness, and humor have guided us on our journey through the Emerald City.

BROWN Still round the corner there may wait A new road or a secret gate; And though I oft have passed them by, A day will come when I Shall take the hidden paths that run West of the moon, east of the sun. JEFFREY SCOTT BRUSTAD There is a road. No simple highway, Between the dawn and dark of night. And if you go, no one may follow; The path is for Your steps alone ... . — The Dead MICHELLE CHARLES 1 shall go on in the same way. Falling into angry discussions. Expressing my opinions tactlessly; There will still be the same wall Between the holy of the holies Of my soul and other people. ... I shall still be as unable to understand With my reason why I pray. And I shall still go on praying. — Tolstoy 20 PATRICK F.

The world is full of kings and queens Who'll blind your eyes Then steal your dreams; It's heaven and hell. — Black Sabbath WADE FURNER All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream.” — Edgar Allan Poe LUANN FELICITY HARMON Standing in the middle of nowhere. Wondering how to begin. Caught between tomorrow and yesterday — Between now and then .. — The Kinks DEBORAH ANN HOLCOMB If you wake up and don't want to smile. If it takes you just a little while.

And eternity in an hour. — Blake 1966-1979 35 With the end of the journey near. Seniors begin to prepare for life after the Emerald City. Having been encouraged to venture outside the City, Seniors have taken classes at Colgate, par- ticipated in Senior Project Week, and pursued part-time jobs. The road leads to graduation in June, but afterwards, the road forks, and some bricks are out of place. With the brains, heart, and courage Seniors have acquired during their trip through the Emerald City, they appreciate where they have been and anticipate where they are going. With fondness for what was and excitement for what will be, they confidently choose a direction. Senior Class Officers — Row 1 — Michelle Charles. Treasurer Row 2 — Stephanie Howe. Secretary.

SEVENTH GRADE Seventh graders are uprooted from the safe, secure setting of Kansas and dropped into the Emerald City It is a brand new world where recess and milk breaks are nowhere to be found Young Munchkins will spend this year getting used to their environment. Playing The States Game in Social Studies for lollipops and participating in junior high sports help make the ad- justment easier.

With the journey through high school just beginning, ninth graders find the yellow brick road well defined.

Row 2 — Susan Shea, President, Kim Hammond, Student Council. Rapid changes and a need for independence mark the tenth grade as the transition from child to young adult. Along with turning sixteen and obtaining a driver's license, sophomores are freed from some of the heavy armor. Open discussions in English class, the memoriza- tion of 15 required geometry' proofs, an extensive history of Europe in Social Studies, and frog dissections in Biology all provide the oil can which prevents the sophomores from rusting academically. 46 As the lion searches for courage, so does th Junior class. They plow their way through Herr ingwav, Fitzgerald, and four-grade essav tests i English, while increasing their vocabufarv wit Word for the Day in Social Studies.

The varsity soccer team has broken new ground at HCS, fielding its first varsity co-ed sports tea m. 7 Turning a club into a varsity team overnight has proven to be a difficult task The map for success unclear, the Knights often strayed from the road. However, the team showed a lot of competitive spirit and with several juniors expected to return next year, seniors Jeff Brustad, Mark Steckler, Paula Spooner and Paul tenHope leave an up-and-coming team hoping to gain both acceptance and a winn- ing green glow in the future. J.H. AND VARSITY CROSS COUNTRY The boys' and girls' cross-country teams ran down a golden-paved road last season, finishing with records of 7-0 and 4-1, respectively. Both teams captured their third straight CSC title. With juniors Josh Brown and Suna Stone each finishing 2nd in the league meet, and munchJcin Heidi Andrews run- ning all the way to the state meet (18th), the horizon looks bright for the Emerald Knights.

The varsity hockey team skated to the Burns Division ti- tle with an 11-2 league record and a mark of 13-7 overall, ad- vancing to the sectional quarter-finals. Senior tri- captains Pat Craven, Mark Steckler and Paul tenHope pro- vided the hearts, brains and courage for the young team. Pat Craven proved to be a roadblock in the goal throughout the season, in- cluding a 6-0 shutout of rival Cazenovia. Defensemen tenHope and Steckler were the top two scorers in the division. Should the younger players meet the expectations of Coach Trudeau, the Emerald Knights will be a force to reckon with in the Burns Division. 69 J.H., J.V. AND VARSITY GIRLS BASKETBALL Girls' J.V.

The 1985 team will be hard pressed to replace the seniors lost to graduation, but will not lack competitive desire. If hard work is any in- dicator, this year's team, led by seniors Christine Elgie, Melanie Youman, Pat Craven, Steve Mit- chell, and Tim Truewor- thy, will once again be a factor as the season progresses. 76 VARSITY TRACK VARSITY TRACK — Row 1 Suna Stone.

Yearbook is not an extra-curricular activity for the staff; it becomes a way of life. The day after the 1984 yearbook came out, the 1985 staff was hard at work. Hundreds of hours of work were spent putting the Hamiltonian 1985 together. Develop- ing the theme, taking pictures, recopy- ing layouts, writing copy, typing names, going out and getting ads and patrons all take organization and re- quire cooperation and commitment. The yearbook staff starts out idealistic and enthusiastic. However, the fall back to reality and the real world can be hard. Nan Washburn, our good friend and advisor, made the fall a soft one. The staff appreciates the confidence and trust placed in us by our classmates. We hope we have served you well. 94 They were rising farther and farther into the sky every moment.
