As they gather, all the unkind thoughts and feelings people have to- wards each other change. Instead of bad thoughts of one another, they cling to- gether with affection and happiness, sharing their gratitude and pleasant ex- periences, exchanging smiles and good will. Now, rather than seeing each person as one and only one, each is seen as part of Hanover, one group experiencing and sharing love.

Yes we do! This year the student council chose a western theme for spirit week. The week started off with college day, then cow- boy day, clash day, Indian day, and school colors day. The halls were decorated by the dif- ferent classes. Each class showed its spirit by working on the halls. On Tues- day, the wild west was revived, featuring the cowboys. They wore the traditional hats, boots and jeans. Members of the student council will long remember the day they were sold as slaves. Mr. Wierman from the Lowell station WLCL was our auctioneer. After the auction, the crowd encouraged fel- low students to devour pies. Two repre- sentatives from each class participated. To dispose of the pies that were left Mr. Ron Roller, Mr. Joseph Fetty and Mr. Brad Stewart were used for target practice. Wednesday many students showed spirit by coming to school in various col- ors of clothes. How about a com- bination of a purple, green and blue striped shirt, matching perfectly with or- ange and pink striped pants? Thursday the juniors collected wood for the bonfire which, was lit that night despite the snow and cold. The classic outhouse was put on the very top of the bonfire. Friday brought the homecoming pa- rade. Cheerleaders, along with Pom Pon girls, participated along with a new horse-riding section. After the parade, students assembled in the gym to par- ticipate in a pep-session. MMMMMM good! exclaims Jim Keilman as he stuffs pies, pies, and more pies into his mouth. The junior class won the pie eating contest. Jim Keilman came in first with Al Rumsey following close behind.

Spirit Week 11 Homecoming Queen and Mr. Homecoming is probably one of the most exciting times of spirit week. With Mrs. Sue Roller ' s careful planning and enthusiasm, homecoming was a great success. On the evening of Dec. 3, be- tween the junior varsity and varsity games, candidates for Queen, Mr. Bas- ketball and the Queen ' s Court members were introduced. After the introductions, made by Dave Rumas and Steve Slivka, the 1978 Homecoming Queen, Miss Jenny Lee Casten, was named; but the suspense did not end there. Mr. Basket- ball had yet to be announced. That crowning was done at the dance follow- ing the games. Candidates were: Dale Gurgel, Mike Magnant, Roger Steuer and Mike Williams. The former Mr. Basket- ball, Chuck Shropshire, did the honors, crowning Dale Gurgel as Mr. Basketball of 1978.

There were five girls from Hanover competing for this honor: Sue Tomeszewski, Jeannine Tor- torici, Ellyn Heckaman, Darcy Dodge and Linda Noel. Three of the girls in the pageant re- ceived $25 savings bonds and awards for special achievements. Linda Noel was honored for the Spirit of Junior Miss, Darcy Dodge was recognized as Most Talented Contestant, and Ellyn Heck- aman received the Scholastic Award. Finally, the big moment arrived: First runner up for Junior Miss 1978 is . . . Sue Tomeszewski, and Junior Miss for 1978 is . . . Jeannine Tortorici. Jeannine went to the state contest, which was held in Frankfort. There she competed with girls from other parts of Indiana to see who would be the one to represent Indiana in the Miss U.S.A. Pageant. Jeannine said that, Being Junior Miss is a great experience. I encourage every senior girl to think about entering the Ju- nior Miss Pageant. 14 Jr. Miss Left: Sue Tomeszewski happily cries as Don Yardley hands her a trophy for first runner-up in the pageant.

In October, the Hendersons showed their gymnastic abilities in the Rohn Rod. In November, Congressman Floyd Fithian gave a political talk in the audito- rium and students were able to ask him questions.

They also told something about karate ' s origin. A week later, the rock group Frank- lin ' s Kite performed in the gymnasium. The convos were not only a nice op- portunity to be out of class for a while, they were also fun, and, for those who were really interested, some were an oc- casion to learn something new.

I have really enjoyed working with the stu- dents, and I have enjoyed helping them find new things to do. They are a nice group of kids, and each year I have got- ten different people. Council members seem to be able to work out the prob- lems that arise during the student coun- cil class. Mrs. Love added, I am retiring be- cause I think they need a younger per- son who has new ideas. They need someone they can relate to more easily. Also, I would like to devote more time to my family. According to Mrs. Love, one of the most interesting functions they have at- tended was the convention in Muncie, Indiana. Also, Homecomings have been very interesting. About council members, Mrs. Love said, I think that the student body should appreciate them more than they seem to. Top: Mrs. Love cuts the cake for Deb Backe ' s birthday.

The money for these uniforms was raised on tag day; over one thousand dollars was collected. persistence, and patience WDOICO Jeff Goss and Bob Darnell put great concentration into their auto shop work. Why do students enjoy the shop classes so much? Because they are given the chance to build and construct, things they enjoy most. Students in the auto classes rebuild engines and work on frames of cars by replacing old, rusted parts with new parts. In drafting classes, students draw dream houses and prac- tice being real architects. Woods stu- dents build furniture and sell their fin- ished products. For a fund raising project, the class made and sold letter organizers to people for Christmas presents; they sold for $4. This proved very profitable and the classes are planning more fund-rais- ing projects for the future. The classes are taught by: Mr. Philip Apple, Graphic Arts I, II, III. Mr. Norman Holmes, Woods I, II, III, and Industrial Arts. Mr. Gregg Hogge, Metals I, II, III. Mr. David Bruzek, Auto Shop and Auto Mechanics. Mr. John Shipley, Drafting I, II, III, and Photography.

Members of the math staff are: Mrs. Mary Love, Mr. Bruce Far- ley and Mrs. French. A new high school English require- ment was instituted this year. From now on, students must take four years of English, not just three. So, as teachers change, so does the curriculum and requirements, while much stays the same much also changes.

New to the department this year is Mr. Dan Metcalf, teaching Lab Science I, II and chemistry. Other members of the de- partment include Mrs. Judy Dermody, who teaches Biology I, II and lab science, Mrs. Sue Roller, Biology I, and Mr. Bill Whitestine, ecology and earth science. Students learn a lot in these classes by doing experiments with chemicals, exploring the anatomy of animals and humans and studying the earth ' s ecology. With all this offered in the science department, no wonder students take a great interest in science at Hanover! a Chris Miller gives a demonstration for Rick Smith. 48 Science Students work hard on class assignments during class.

Science 49 Publications Require Dedication This year ' s newspaper staff can be summed up in one word and that word is “dedicated. Sponsor Mr. Randall Kahn said, “Staff members spend at least two nights per deadline after school. First semester, the staff was under the leadership of editor Kathy Xanders; sec- ond semester, they were led by co-edi- tors Mike Snyder and Linda Noel. Mr. Kahn supervised the operation of the staff. He said, “Between the editors and myself a story is read at least seven times before it goes to press. The sports section was led by Sue Al- vey and Bob Doyal, and Revonah ' s funds were managed by Jeff Crabb. Ac- cording to Mr. Kahn, We produced a paper every three weeks first semester and every two weeks the second. This was a very rough schedule to meet for a generally inexperienced staff, but we managed it without many problems. Linda Noel pieces together one of the pages to be printed.

Top right: Kim O ' Masta concentrates on balancing the yearbook ' s budget. She was business manager and head of the advertisement section. This year ' s theme for Hanover Cen- tral ' s yearbook is The Key of Life. The staff is led by Mike Snyder, senior and editor. Mike has put many hours of frus- tration, hope and care into the 1977-78 yearbook. Many nights were spent at Hanover Central working on layouts and producing pictures for frustrated staff members. Each separate section of the book has its own editor; for student life, Rene Par- tain is section editor; Tari Spurr is editor of the sports section; Dawn Tussey is editor for student activities, and Kathy Backe is in charge of the album section. These people must be responsible and dependable at all times. Sometimes, they literally have to push staff members to get their pages done on time. The sec- tion editors approve layouts and rough layouts before they go to the editor for his approval and have pages of their own to do also. The work, time and effort that goes into a yearbook is rewarded when the book is published and given out to the students. Every staff member has the great feeling of success and pleasure of doing a fine job. Newspaper 51 Playing The band adds a special touch to school activities by holding seasonal concerts, performing at graduation cere- monies and awards night and playing for the Pom Pon Corps. Interested members of the band annually attend the NIS- BOVA Assembly and Ensemble Contest; the band placed second. Rick Wach- owiak was the first Hanover student to compete in state competition in three years. Band members participated in the Ce- dar Lake Memorial Day, Lowell Labor Day, and three local Fourth of July pa- rades; a new addition was the Highland Christmas Parade. The high school band was also connected with the Pom Pon Corps and played at half time during ju- nior varsity and varsity basketball games. The band received new uniforms this year. Mr. John Corball said, “The uni- forms fit our needs; they are up to date, close to school colors and the students like the hats. Above right: The band played on at the fall con- cert.

Mrs. Pasierb took over Mrs. Lemon ' s Typing I, office practice, business machine, and data processing classes. In his first year of teaching at Hanover, Mr. Don Thompson had general busi- ness and business math classes. Teaching shorthand classes is Mr. Ron Roller, in his fourth year of teaching at Hanover.

Bringing culture to Hanover this year in the Foreign Language Department are the French and Spanish classes. The foreign language classes are taught by Mr. Jack Granger, Spanish, and Mrs. Betsy Doffin, French. This year, along with learning of the Spanish language, students had the op- portunity to fly to Mexico to meet the Mexican people and learn of their cul- ture and ways of life. Twenty-one students attended this eight-day learning experience, where they visited Mexico City, Taxco, and Acapulco. Laura Cohn and Cheri Landry help each other with class work.

Could you imagine all the people who would not be in shape? Han over Central has a sports program. Maybe it ' s not like those at other schools, and that may be what makes us so unique. Sure, we don ' t have football, but then we do have a lot of other things in place of it. For instance, for guys we have: tennis, cross country, track, bas- ketball, baseball, golf, volleyball, and wrestling; For girls we have: track, bas- ketball, and volleyball. Students who go out for sports are a very special kind of people. They work hard for what they achieve, but some- times even though we try we don ' t suc- ceed. Dedication is one of the key fac- tors in sports. Without dedication, could we still have a sports program? Left: Hanover ' s girls volleyball team gets instruc- tions during the game.

The Hanover wrestling team experi- enced a new coach— actually a whole new coaching staff, including Coach Andy Kmeic and Coach Bob Zerby with Assistant Coach Brad Stewart. Although there were many new and inexperienced wrestlers, team members really worked hard and gave their best. Have you ever walked through the mezzanine after school and heard the sounds of pain coming from the wres- tlers? A wrestler must really be devoted to starve himself to keep at a certain weight, to work out, to run and, last but not least, to go out on the mat and wrestle someone that he ' s never met be- fore— all for Hanover. This year ' s record was 3-6. Craig Moehlman was undefeated. He went to Sectionals where he came in second, and he went on to Regionals. Most of the other wrestlers received a fourth place in Sectionals. At left: Varsity wrestlers listen at- tentively to a pep talk before a match.

When you leave the cross-country course moaning about a second or third place finish in a quality meet, he is the youngster who, with a smudge of dirt on his cheek, sweat on his brow, pain in his body and a tear in his eye, humbles and enriches you with a few simple words: “We tried. This year ' s cross-country team tried and succeeded in many quality meets. They finished with an 8-0 record in the conference Round Robin meets and won the conference meet. They finished second in the North Newton, Lake Cen- tral and Twin Lakes Invitationals, and third in the Crown Point and South Cen- tral Invitationals. They took a sev- enth place in Sectionals, receiving the best placing ever for a Hanover cross- country team. 1 Their season record is 14 wins and 5 losses.

As a team, players worked together to improve their skills.

The last tennis team was headed by Coach Dick Norris. Now, seven years later, Coach Ron Roller is heading our tennis team. With a 6-2 record, it looks like we still have what it takes to be a winning team. Coach Roller feels that even though we will lose five senior players, next year we will still have a good team.

Varsity basketball is one of the strong- est sports at Hanover. With seven wins and 12 defeats, our Varsity Wildcats never gave in. They are a strong team and easy to coach, said Coach Ron Roller. Our Wildcats showed good teamwork, with 254 assists, hard work and long hours of practice. Mike Wil- liams and Roger Steuer proved that se- niors can do a good job and come through in their final year. Even though the team was tough, the fans weren ' t. It seems the more fans in attendance, the better a team plays; but we must get in the spirit or we will lose it all. Coach Ron Roller voiced the com- monest complaint, We needed a lot more fans at away games. Some of the players asked, Why were the fans, Pom Cats, pep band, pep club and the par- ents fantastic at home, but few fans came out to support us at away games? Fans must ask themselves: would Han- over have had a better season, if more fans had shown more support? 68 Varsity Basketball Above: Assistant Coach Dave DeMuth, Tom Day- berry and Mike Williams check out Roger Steuer ' s twisted ankle as Joe Stark and Steve Seils wait for his replacement at the P.C.C. tourney game.

Bottom right: Craig Fuller passes the ball to an open man. The junior varsity team was a good one this year. The team had a 15-4 record and didn ' t lose one game on the home court. The team had a very good attitude, which helped players during the season. The key to the J.V. success was that each player had a part to play on the team. In most cases they did what they were supposed to do. Even though the ).V. did do well this year, they wish to see more people out to watch them play. The performance the J.V. gave us this year was outstanding compared to old records. It is almost impossible to get a better record than 15-4 with the teams we play each year. J.V. team members gave up their spare time to give us a year in basketball we could cheer about. With the type of playing the J.V. players did, they sure can hold their heads up high. 70 JV Basketball fV to a good season Above: John Branley stalls to look for an open man.

This year ' s freshman basketball team experienced a rather rough season as far as winning games, but Coach Bruce Far- ley said, The experience that the team rpembers received was much more valu- able than winning. He added that, They were a small team of only eight players and had to play a tough sched- ule. I feel that they began the season as a very inexperienced team, but improved immensely near the end. They finished the season with a record of three wins and 14 losses (excluding B team games).

The home course for the Wildcat golfers was South Shore Country Club golf course. With only two senior members, the rest of the tea m members are looking forward to a better year, next year. Even with all the rain and postponement, they still pulled themselves out of the mud and had a good season. The varsity ' s record this year, 18 and 12, is its best record yet.

We had an overall score of 6-3 for varsity and 4-7 for J.V. Coach Dave DeMuth commented, We started out good, but slowed down, then we picked back up as we went into sectionals. The main reason for this slow-down was because of in- juries. Even though we lost a few games, we will still keep on going in future years. Above: Steve Seils and Mark Wicker get ready for a set-up.

With a mas- culine touch, they could do bigger blocks and harder stunts. Each girl did many double stunts with her base (boy); these were performed during our team ' s free throws. All the cheerleaders thought that adding guys to the squad would be a great idea. The guys said that it was hard work but fun. The cheerleaders want to continue having guys on the squad for next year. Right, varsity cheerleaders: Deb Baacke, Cindy Carpenter, Chris Miller, Laura Bowyer, Darcy Dodge, Linda Verhulst (bottom).

This year, the freshmen and junior var- sity cheerleaders worked very hard along with their sponsor, Mrs. Sue Roller. They had two practices a week during the summer and one practice a week when games began. A workshop was held for two days this year before tryouts. About 16 girls participated in tryouts. The freshmen had three different uni- forms this year and one new sweater to match a skirt they already had. All cheer- leaders went to camp at Smith Wal- bridge. Several new routines and styles of cheerleading were practiced at camp. Still, cheerleaders did not allow the work to interfere much with their fun and games.

Most students in athletics were recog- nized with certificates for participation in their sports. Those who did not re- ceive certificates got a medal or trophy for being the most valuable player or having the best mental attitude. 90 Athletic Banquet Athletes Applauded Bill VanDerPol and Linda Hildebrand received the Athlete of the Year Award for 1978.

Most of your high school friends are gone, and you may never see them again; but you can remember them by looking through this yearbook. The yearbook is the key that will bring back memories as you turn the pages. Persons you have long since forgotten will come back into your mind when you see their faces. That is why this sec- tion will be more important as the years slide by; the pictures should help you re- member, and should bring a smile of recognition to your face.

Seniors: (sen yer), n. 1. a person of greater rank, standing, or length of ser- vice. 2. a person in the graduating class of a high school or college. (Paraphrased from Webster ' s dictionary.) What is a senior? I am a senior. I am in the twelfth grade. New responsibilities are constantly being thrown at me. I have, for the first time in my life, the abil- ity to vote in public elections. How should I vote? Decisions, I have to make decisions that will change the rest of my life. Should I go to college, trade school, find a job, or will I get married? What is a Hanover Central senior? I am a Hanover Central senior. I represent many things for the class of 78. I had to fight to have open campus for lun ch this year. I had to pass the competency test in order to graduate. I watched the pow- der puff football team win in both my junior (7-6), and senior (13-0) years, the first team ever to do so. But mostly, I didn ' t do much more than be a senior.

' A country of opportunity ' Who ' s that new girl with the funny name? There ' s no way I can pronounce that! Where ' d she come from, anyway? I ' m not sure; her name is Ella Vlaar- something and I think she ' s from Holland. Ella Vlaardingerbroek is the new girl, and she is from ' t Harde, Holland. She is 17 years old and attended and gradu- ated from Carolus Clusius H.S. in three years. Ella is an exchange student from the Y.F.U. (Youth For Understanding) pro- gram. Ella stated: So far, I have really enjoyed my stay here, and I have learned a lot. I think Americans are gen- erally very friendly and open.

Juniors 111 New ways and ideas Early in July of 1977, Chuck Smith went to the aid of Duane Scent and Tony Pan- ozzo, whose truck was stranded along the road. As he worked between two ve- hicles, one was struck from behind and Chuck was pin- ned between them. His skull was fractured, ribs broken and his legs crushed; his right leg had to be amputated. Af- ter many operations and a five-month hospital stay. Chuck returned to school. Throughout his ordeal. Chuck received lots of love Not pictured Ed Brown Jeff Gross Sue Hansom Jennifer Hudspeth Craig Moelhman Tony Panazzo Anna Romig Chris Rumas Doyal Sisney Chuck Smith Todd Teets Mark Utley Connie Werner Dennis Willy 112 Juniors and support from many people. He never lost his good spirits or his sense of humor. Chuck is grateful to the many people who helped and supported him after the accident. All of us at Hanover wish him a speedy recovery. By: Tim Nolan Above: The remains of a tragic accident in- volving three Hanover students . . . Below ' : George Mick and Mike Marine show school isn ' t all that bad. Right: Hanover ' s last bonfire burns wildly in the night. Chuck Smith toots along during band. During spirit week, it ' s traditional to have a bonfire; but no longer will Han- over celebrate homecoming with a bonfire. Many students threw snowballs at fire- men, faculty members, and students. There were many complaints by nearby businesses about mud being tracked into stores and by parents about stu- dents whose clothes and shoes were completely covered with mud. There were three accidents during the wood gathering. Also, the ground was unnecessarily torn up by racing vehicles and spinning tires. The purpose of the bonfire was to help raise students ' spirit and ready them for homecoming. The lack of coopera- tion by students and the extensive clean- up required afterwards are some of the reasons Hanover will not have any bon- fires in the foreseeable future. Duane Scent is lost in thought. T.V. Guide tops all! This year the soph- omore class sold magazine subscriptions to help raise money for the 1979 prom. More subscriptions were sold to T.V. Guide than any other magazine listed. Even though they made a large sum of money, the sophomore class hopes to make a great deal more. They planned to have a light bulb sale in the spring. They hope to give the best prom ever. The sophomores have already se- lected the prom site committee. Mem- bers are class officers and some soph- omore students. They are searching for the best spot to have a memorable prom. Sponsoring the sophomore class isn ' t the only thing that keeps Mrs. Sharon Cataldi busy; she is also an art teacher for the junior high school.

He doesn ' t realize the money that his business circulates, stimulating our economy. He doesn ' t realize just how convenient it is to drive to his business instead of driving to the next town to buy the same products. But what he realizes the least is that his business creates jobs for people of all ages wishing to gain experience and earn money. 1 Ad Divider 127 : y PL Ua, % PIPING-SEWERS SEPTIC SYSTEMS— DRAINS RESIDENTIAL-COMMERCIAL LICENSED-BONDED-INSURED 13161 STATELINE RD.

Custodians, secretaries, bus drivers and cooks are as much a part of the school as the teachers and students. Many people don ' t realize it, but these people are a big influence on our lives. Consciously aind subconsciously, each student learns from these people. These staff members do a lot to help students and the school. Janitors keep the school clean and sanitary, which not only results in a nice looking school, but also cuts down on health hazards. The secretaries keep all the school records in files. They are the ones who keep the school running smoothly. The bus drivers take many students to school and home again five days a week, nine months a year, through rain, sleet and hail. The cooks prepare a hot meal everyday, making sure it is nutritionally balanced. These staff members act together as the people behind the scenes. Staff 145 Tim’ UNISEX 9471 Joliet St St. John.

council, sponsored by Mrs. Mary Love, accomplished many things. President was Karl Jonason; Vice- President, Dave Rumas; Treasurer, Mike Magnant; and Secretary, Deb Baacke. Members worked very hard to have many dances, convocations, and mov- ies, along with a good Spirit Week for the school. They used some of their funds to buy a new refrigerated water fountain to be instal led next year. This was Mrs. Love ' s last year as student council sponsor. Above: Susie Baker and Dana Plant, foreground, are enjoying one of the several dances sponsored by student council.

The 152-page book is printed on bordeaux special, with the exception of pages 97-112, which are printed on colortext yellow. Vista type (optima black) was used throughout the book. Black being the emphasis type, captions are eight-point, copy is ten-point, headlines are 30- point, and subheads are 24-point. All vertical head- lines and tool lines are hand-set by the Key staff. Division type is 60-point, all capital letters. The cover is made of two full-cover photographs (taken by Victor Studio) printed on a base white litho material. Four-color process was applied to the Spirit Week and Homecoming pages: 8,9,12 and 13. Sky-blue endsheets were chosen. Seniors had the priviledge of having their names stamped in gold on the cover for a 50C charge. Above: Tari Spurr (with hand out) and other seniors receive awards at the journalism banquet. Right: Sue Hansom is inducted into Quill Scroll, and receives her pin from Mike Snyder. Senior John Westerhoff and his family enjoy the journalism banquet. The key to a year at Hanover is indi- viduality. Each student contributes his or her own special talent, and works to- gether with others to create many other keys. In the sports area, it takes hard work and dedication to create the key to victory. Many kids wonder why they are taught some subjects; well, all learning is the key to knowledge. If you flip through this book, you will see many faces which are the key to memories. Turn to the back and look at our many supporting businesses, which are the key to experi- ence for many students. Throughout the year, with all of the gatherings and events, we have all real- ized that togetherness is the key to good times. The yearbook staff would like to thank the following people: Al and Dorothy Massena of Victor Studio for all of their time, concern and hard work producing pictures for our book; Mr. John Shipley and his pho- tography class (especially Karen Grosam and Shari Foreman) for most of the group and team photo- graphs; Principal Gordon Paquin and Assistant Princi- pal Joseph Fetty for their help, understanding and sup- port; Mr. Gary Young Sr. for his advice, support, and proofreading skills; Mrs. Debbie Thompson for help- ing to proofread; Mr. Sam Campbell for his quick work building the darkroom, and his constant help; Kelly Sheldon and Val Ploetz for their photography work; and Rick Wachowiak for typing and proofreading. A special thanks to the student council for its financial support. The yearbook staff consisted of, back row: Rick Troy, Mark laconetti, Mark Kozlowski, Editor Mike Snyder, Ken Lance, Mark Snedden; middle row: Ella Vlaardingerbroek, Dawn Tussey, Allison Burgess, Kathy Backe; front row: Rene Partain, Maralee Young, Lisa Norris, Kim O ' Masta, Lynn Selmeister and Chris Thorn. 1 52 Closing
