Collaboration! Stats Club has small turnout by Richard A. Curiel, Ir. The 1982 season for the Statistics Club lStats Clubl had a small collaboration of only four members this year. They were seniors lan Brimeyer, Emily Blum, Laura Gage, and junior Doddie Cage. Between these four girls, they had to keep statistics for varsity, sophomore, and junior-varsity football games. These girls had to travel to away games as well as home games to keep the statistics for the coaches. Bob Fouche, ad- viser, said that the club was put together to aid the coaches so that they could worry more about the next play instead of who made the last tackle. Fouche explained, Sta- tistics Club was organized to gather and summarize statistics for football games, sit in the press box, and record such things as yar- dage, tackles, etc. for the football coaches. Gage, '84, said, I like statistics club because you get an insight to what is happening in the game and you get a chance to find out things you wouldn't nor- mally know if you sat in the bleachers. Brimeyer said, Statistics Club is a good way of learning what is really happening in the game and not just a football being moved up and down the field. You also get a chance to learn a skill by trying to gather all the information together and get it right. Because the group was such a small one this year, the girls worked especially hard and put in many hours. This was a very nice group of girls to work with. The coaches sincerely ap- preciate their efforts, and wish to thank them, said Fouche. D .uh 11 Bob Fouche, club adviser, talks to the 21 Statistics Club members members about taking statistics.

XX- 'Qt MODEL U A Better Understanding by Tracy Steffen Model UN is a high school club which studies various countries, their problems, and ways to resolve them. Although there are no specified qualifications for the members, most have an above average grade point. The most important factor, is the students' interest in the United Nations and the problems facing the world today. Senior, Deb Stoppelmoor said, The purpose of the Model UN is to give students a better under- standing of the world's problems, the difficulty in solving them through first hand experience and developing the realization of the importance which these issues hold. Tom Determan, a social studies instructor, advises the club by assisting them in gaining information and helping them to understand the problems and procedures in the actual United Nations. Student officers of the club are Deb Stoppelmoor, president, seniors, Mike Fleege and Gavin Boul- tinghouse, treasurers. Head delegates of the three coun- tries the club has chosen to study are: Deb Stoppel- moor, for Romania, Ion Tucker, for Kuwait, and Chris Stevens, for Belgium. The Starve-a-thon was an activity in school sponsored by the club. Ten percent of the money raised was given to UNICEF. The money remaining from the fund- raiser was used for the club's trip to Cedar Falls where the members par- ticipated in a model session of the United Nations. Hempstead's Model UN club represented the coun- tries Romania, Kuwait, and Belgium. For each country there are special commit- tees that study their country's problems which pertain to their committee. They are disarmament, social, humanitarian and cultural, political and secur- ity, special political, and ECOSOC. After the com- mittees have researched the problems, they discuss the issue at the model session and try to help the problem in the form of a resolution. 79

Key club is beneficial to the participating students. Kohlmann said, Leader- ship opportunities are pre- sented in key club. The members get the chance to meet adult business and professional men who belong to the Kiwanis Club and they are also given the chance to travel for conven- tions. The club contributes to the community with assis- tance and fund-raisers through a nationally organ- ized club. The members assisted the Salvation Army with bell ringing and they also helped to hang the wreaths in the downtown area. The club also con- tributes on Coffee Day by delivering and picking up the canisters and they also had some members that participated in the March of Dimes Walk-a-thon. Less acknowledged, yet no less important, activities are the club's visitations to nursing homes where sing- a-longs are conducted. The club also makes similar visits with the residents at ARC. One major fund-raiser sponsored by the club was the school's rock-a-thon. Money raised by the rockers went toward the spastic paralysis founda- tion. Besides the said causes, some of the funds raised are used to send club members to the District and Interna- tional Conventions. During the International Conven- tion, key club members from across the country gathered together. The con- vention was held in Florida this year where members discussed their projects and possible future changes. Referring to the District Convention, Cathy Cocayne said, We met a lot of new friends while learning more about our club and its potential to do well for our community. 11 Top row: Ken Gorton, Dean Gorton, Billy Hardy, Kristi Tigges, Wayne Knockel, Conrad Kohlmann.
