So many different leaves, textures, and colors . . . yet, we use just one word to describe it . . . . . . tree . . . Uniqueness . . .

Police Mason officer Lanny Wells, checks total rushing yards gained with injured player, Larry Topbr. OH NO! The faces of John Kuch, Dwight Hastings, and Wally Nowak sum up High- land fans ' feelings as Griffith scores. V A LITTLE BOOST. Getting ready to punch the Panther off the field in the traditional game against Griffith, is Pan ther Pusher, Bernie McNeilly. V-UNIUUEjr THE BIG THREE. Football games often bring the best of folks together. Messrs. Day, Clinkenbeard, and Kellam gather at the 15 yard line. 2 Individual THREE HOT CHOCOLATES? Booster Club officer, Fred Phillips, takes orders at the concession stand from fans during the half- time show. GO GET ' EM. Urging Booster Block mem- bers to back the “Mighty Trojans, is Janet Moore, varsity cheerleader. Tension and excitement flow through a lively crowd as 22 athletes take their positions. Wild cheering and applause can be heard as the referee gives the signal to start. The game is about to begin . . . It ' s our first home game. Our games are really something; they ' re a sideshow all of their own. Take those kids goofing off under the bleachers, or that cheerleader screaming her lungs out, or that worried parent in the stands— they ' re all doing something different. See that adult booster member, that ex- cited announcer, that desperate coach— they ' re all here for dif- ferent reasons, yet they all rep- resent just one school. I guess those football players aren ' t the only ones with High- land stamped on their backs. It ' s something how we can all be so different, yet all be known as one word— Highland. We ' re individual, but we ' re all part of one whole. UPS AND DOWNS. Reflecting the pains of football while watching the joys of it is Mark Woodke, injured Trojan. v Individual But Whole 3 Individual But Whole F Cliques. Everybody talks about them, everyone seems to be a part of one. Just walking to class I can see the same kids always hanging around each other, always talking about the same things. Sometimes it really makes me sad. I mean, I really want to go out with that guy, or hang around with that girl, but I can ' t be- cause we ' re in different cliques. Something funny happened the other day, though. We were all in the auditorium for a convocation featur- ing a rock band. Everyone was dancing in the aisles, clapping, and singing. No cliques, no masks, no un- spoken rules; everybody was doing the same thing, singing the same song. That day meant something to me. I wasn ' t in the midst of 500 little groups, just one big clique . . . Highland High . . . WHAT SO PROUDLY WE HAIL. Voices soar over the cool night as the Color Guard presents our flag during the pre-oame ceremonies. • 1 rr U m a K hi Vi j n ■ ■ m ] Individual But Whole 5 It ' s 1 0: 1 5 AM and Mrs. Cheever just got finished reading the morning announcements. You wouldn ' t be- lieve all the different kinds of clubs that are supposed to meet after school today! French Club, FHA, Letter- men, Speech- Arts, and lots of others. That ' s not all. After clubs, she an- nounced team practice times, exam schedules, library fees, assemblies, and game days. Sometimes I think it ' s impossible for so many things to be going on in just one place at one time. Why do we come to school any- way? To become scientists, to play baseball, to rap with friends, to gripe, to create? There we go again— individ- ual, yet all under the heading High- land.” 6 Activities TRANQUILITY. School hassles, work sched- ules, and daily worries disintegrate with the peaceful flow of summer ' s nature as Mike Franchimont experiences it. 8 Summer DREAMS AND THINGS. Memories of times gone by and hopes of pleasant things to come, are hazy thoughts that cloud the mind of Robbie Haynes and other students during the summer. Summer! Summer! Summer! School ' s closing and the excitement of summer came at last! For some, summer would be a lot of hard work and earning money. For others, the season meant one word-freedom! It seemed, as summer ap- proached, worries were gone and every- body went their own ways. While attending the Ball State Work- shop, the journalism students learned new ideas and themes. The varsity cheerleaders had a successful summer as they came back from camp with welcomed awards and smiling faces. Approximately 327 students spent their mornings attending driver education classes. Towards the end of August, the band and football teams got into the swing of things. Along with the band, the majorettes practiced two times a day, five days a week. The varsity football team sweated it out while practicing four hours a day, six days a week. Flours spent on perfecting each club paid off, as High- land got off to a prosperous year. Summer 9 PUT ON A HAPPY FACE! Singing of bright ribbons and future romances brightens Judi Wielgos ' day in the hat shop. Judi portrayed Irene Malloy. STEP RIGHT UPI Leading the townsfolk in a lively chorus of Put on Your Sunday Clothes, Nancy Kucharski sings of the many joys that Sunday brings. DOLLY ' S HOME! Admiring glances from Bill Bloskey, Pete Kvarta, Jim Walkowiak and Ed Grif- fith welcome Camille Plautz back to Rudolph’s Restaurant. Who plays matchmaker for herself-as well as others? Dolly Levi and suddenly nothing is the same. This became true as Camille Plautz, Dolly Levi, and Scott Smith, Horace Vandergelder, played the leading roles in Hello, Dolly. Jay Komorowski as Cor- nelius Hackle and Ron Windmiller as Barn- aby Tucker added to the cast as employees of Horace Vandergelder. Backstage situations doubled excitement when doors got stuck and walls moved mysteriously during performances. Comical ad-libs by actors also brought laughter from the audiences. Dancers took part under the direction of Mrs. Marion Hoyda. Much time and effort was spent practicing and making perfect. By May 8 unfinished things were ready and actors, actresses and dancers took their places on stage, ready to perform. Suddenly, as the lights dimmed a hush fell over the audience. The curtains rose, the orchestra played and Dolly came alive! DOLLY LEVY-COUNSELOR AT LAW. Up to her old tricks, Dolly convinces Horace that a wife is what he needs. THREE CHEERS FOR FEMININITYI Yonkers townmen wholeheartedly agree that it ' Takes A Woman for that special touch. Musical 11 TO BE OR NOT TO BE. With 1974 ' s Queen and King in mind, Michele Gauthier takes a ballot and casts her vote. FOLLOW THE LEADER. Alumni Kathy Vacendak and Mike Mutka lead the rest of the gang, as they bounce along doing the bunny hop. CLOSE TO YOU! Dreamy eyed Denise Mitseff thinks ahead about the After Prom Festivities with Dave Kurz. r r’ r :- ALL DOLLED UP! Ms. Sharon Sheline proves to alumni Carol Moore and Danny Leg ler teachers as well as students enjoy prom festivities. What ' s one of the biggest nights of the year? Prom, of course! Stars and a wishing- well decorated the lobby area. A flowered- covered bridge was the walkway over a glistening creek. Many couples waited in the lengthy line for pictures. Others danced to the music of the Bob Wilson Band or snacked on cookies and punch served by freshman girls. The court was introduced and Ed Ty- lenda sang the theme song, Stairway to Heaven. The crowd applauded with ap- proval as Jordan Vukus and Michele Sikich were crowned king and queen to reign over the festivities. After-Prom began with a steak dinner at 1 a.m. in the House of Lynwood. Fresh Air provided the fast dance music until 5 a.m. when the couples left to catch a few hours sleep. Smiles and fallen curls were seen on Sun- day morning. An unusually cold day pre - vented many couples from going to the beach. Some went to the zoo, others to Turkey Run. Monday morning came much too soon. Sleepy eyes and sunburned faces showed who had enjoyed the weekend activities. Prom 13 DONE AT LAST! Despite mass confusion, sweltering heat, and buzzing mosquitoes, vale- dictorian Denise Krivich and her classmates see their senior year come to an end. SHORT BUT SWEET! Co-Salutatorian Marilee Smith conveys her thoughts of what her friends have meant to her throughout her high school years. IT ' S ONLY A BEGINNING! Co-Salutatorian Richard Stevens expresses his feelings to the crowd in the gym. CRUTCHES AND SMILES. Not even a dis located hip hampers Linda Duley on the • walk towards her diploma. Dave Dobrinich also looks forward to the long-awaited moment. LOST IN THOUGHT. Four years already gone? Successful wrestling meets and exciting football games are a part of Tom Herr ' s high school memories. ON TO BIGGER THING What seems like an end was only a be- ginning was the motto of the 74 graduates. On a hot Tuesday evening, June 4, the class assembled to receive their diplomas. Parents, teachers, and friends waited impatiently for his or her graduate to receive his diploma. The senior class president, Rick A. Kwolek, introduced the valedictorian, De- nise Krivach, and the salutatorians, Marilee Smith and Rick Stephens. Friends, school and the future were topics used in their speeches. 520 seniors anxiously counted every minute until they ' d have their diplomas. Many thought of their pride in accomplish- ing their goal in high school. Others were remembering happy times at football games or speech meets. Some thought only of their future— whether it was marriage, a job, or college and more education. A TIME FOR GOODBYES. Suspending in time what may be their last conversation together, Jean Devine and Joe Kundrat wish each other a fond farewell. Graduation 15 w • r |P SAY CHEESE!

Homecoming plays a big parfin re- ' turning to a new year, even though pre- parations began as early as June. With class floats and decorated cars, kids once again became involved in the fc ryday life of BACK TO SCHOOL! I Convo cation 17 THE WINNERS! Newly crowned royalty, Kim Blanton and Dan Mroczkowski begin their reign over Homecoming festivities. STUDENTS ELECT ■ � HOMECOMING COURT: Wendy Aumiller, Joe Menzvk.

Cindy, who walked in it, is a little tired, too. ivi m.mt ROYALTY PLUS . . . Homecoming Court mem- bers include Karen Moore, Mike Slasuraitis, Kim Blanton, Dan Mroczkowski, Sandi Paredes and Trojan quarterback Greg Mucha. Who won, who won? There was a gen- eral undercurrent of questions like this being asked in the crowd. After the homecoming nominees walked across the football field at the pep rally, the king and queen were final- ly crowned. Dan Mroczkowski and Kim Blanton reigned over festivities including the pep rally, parade, game, alumni coffee hour and dance. An evening pep rally took the place of the usual bonfire, due to a new law banning all fires. Other nominees for queen were Susie Justak, Karen Moore, Beth Moffett, Wendy Aumiller, and Sandi Parades. King nominees, all football players, included Mike Slasurai- tis, Larry Topor, Greg Mucha, Tom Jones and Joe Menzyk. Alumni were re-acquainted with their school and high school classmates at an alumni coffee hour held after the game. They missed a Trojan victory on the foot- ball field, but you might say they felt a vic- tory of their own when they saw their old friends. RIGHT THERE! In all the confusion of getting the parade ready, Mr. Kellam instructs Mary Mikula where to line up her class float. READY TO GO! Anxious for the parade to start, Tami Haire takes her position next to her float as things start rolling along. RIGHT PLACE-RIGHT TIME. Dependability and responsibility are key words in describing Rick Smith and Bob Flutka as they capture exciting times through pictures. 20 Homecoming SHOW SPIRIT WE DID ITI Sophomore Jon Janott embraces Home- coming chairman Sandi Paredes as he accepts his class trophy for first place in the float competition. Homecoming 21 HERE THEY COMEt Michelle Engerski, Jane Moore, Gina Gamaleri and Beth Stark watch th nominees approach during the pep session Thurs day night Friday afternoon set homecoming activ- ities off to a good start when students were gleefully dismissed from school at 1:00. Including the clubs, class floats, home- coming court, marching band and LaFollette twirlers, the parade excitement grew. Following the theme of song titles, floats wore the names of many oldies-but- goodies and popular song titles. After having been judged, the float win- ners were announced at half-time. The soph- omore class float titled Locomotion gained first place in class competition, with the seniors ' Smoke on the Water captur- ing second. Club winners were band and Health Careers Club. Disappointment spoiled the homecoming game as the Merrillville Pirates defeated the Trojans, 20-0. With a case of fumbles, the Highland gridmen gave the Pirates a 19-0 lead. A good kick with 7:42 left led the foes to a 20-0 final score. INJURED AGAIN. Bill Nichols accepts careful attention given to him by Coach Smith after rein- juring his knee. Bill was able to contribute his efforts in the Homecoming game, although he was previously injured. Hey, did you see Randy anywhere around here? Sure, he ' s in the typing hall, as usual. Hey, are you goin ' to JOHN ' S after the game? No, our group usually goes to MCDONALDS. Hangouts ... all throughout the year, students chose certain places to gather before, during, or after school. In the morning, large groups gathered on the foot-bridge, or on the trestle to discuss things before the school day began. Athletes congregated in the main hall, drama buffs in the auditorium, junior girls in the chemistry hall. Of course, students all had their special grounds out of school also. MCDONALDS, BURGER KING, and BARTONS were popu- lar places after games and school events. Play rehearsals were often followed by a trip to PIZZA HUT or MINER DUNN. And who could forget DAIRY QUEEN after a hard practice? Rinnnngggg! The morning bell has just rung, summoning students from their sep- arate halls and hangouts. Students reluc- tantly leave their places to face the long school day ahead. CANDY KING. Standing guard over the candy machines? No! Mike Slasuraitis just takes time out to think. SWIMMERS ' HAVEN. The pool isn ' t the only place that swimmers get together. Tankmen Dave Kurz and Tim Vidimos relax in the swim club office between classes. BLEACHER BOYS. Getting together during half time at a home game is one of the favorite past- times of many Highland students, shown here at the Griffith game. SOLITUDE. A student takes time out to meditate on the past few school days in the new year and those yet to come. TEST TIME. Charlie Pigozzi makes another use of the halls as he makes up a missed test. KE fl B EflJ Lunch proved to be a break from the routine of the school days. Students looked forward to this time to cure their hunger and to mingle with their friends. As prices of food went up, the lunch lines never went down. Friends were convenient to have during lunch. Most students took advantage of this as cuts seemed to push the lunch line farther and farther back. As hunger struck, so did the rush to the cafeteria. When people think of after school, they usually think of going home and relaxing. But for others, their ideas are completely opposite of this. For these involved people, almost every day is taken up. Activities such as GAA, sports, cheerleading, and band take up their time. Hours are spent each day by these people, either perfecting themselves or just being present that day for the pleasure of it. 24 Lunch, After School NOT AGAIN. Chuck Danne, Michael Franchimont, and Robbie Haynes try to decide over the school ' s left overs. What a choice! HOT DOG. Larry Woods builds up an appetite for his Armor hot dog and flying french fries, every- body ' s all time favorite hot lunch. YOU DID IT. Rusty Cramer sets another record at his table for the fastest milk guzzler. Not too many students have time for this due to short lunch. SCHOOL ' S OUT. After a hard day ' s work in school, students head for their locker and their after school activities. PREMIUM— ON JOBS. Even though inflation hurt the job market, Dave Kozel kept his job at a gas station. P == FAITH IN THE FUTURE. Filling out a job appli- cation or a college application can be hectic; ask Nancy Rivak. - ' THINK TWICE. Spending money is almost as hare as making money. Kris Rogers thinks twice before a purchase. MAN ' S BEST FRIEND. Pumping gas with one hand and keeping Fido happy with the other is Ron Williams, as he keeps the cus- tomer satisfied! ' JUST ' JEANS? Price tags soared this year, as Highland ' s students bought items locally to boost the economy. Christmas shopping hit students especially hard. $MONEY, MONEYS. Michelle Michalek works part time at the Highland Pharmacy Just for the love of money . Jobs 27 You have a job? Some students find that trying to earn money in a public place is a good way to get started out on their own in the world. Others simply like to have the extra money around. Where would the Pharmacy be with- out young girls to wait on people at the counter? Or what would the grocery stores do without their carry-out boys? While students work in the business world, the community does its part for the students. Junior Women ' s Club formed a group known as the Juniorettes for teenage girls interested in that type of activity, but who are too young for the main club. They planned various activities following in the footsteps of their founders, including a dance to raise money and publicity. Kiwanis continued its reputation of the fine pancake breakfasts they serve this year. It also had a luncheon every Thursday at which students were guest speakers. PROBLEMS AND OPINIONS... Problems and opinions ... It seems like nobody has found a way to escape that one little thing that we call a problem. Parents are forever worrying about their kids, the bills, or unexpected accidents. Teachers are concerned about that certain student or class. Doctors can ' t get that patient out of their minds and college students fear they won ' t find a job. High school students as well as these other people have their special kinds of problems. School pressures, after-graduation decisions, being accepted by the crowd— these problems are a part of virtually every teen ' s life. What is the number one problem of High- land High students today? According to Wendy Aumiller, the main problem is cliques. She feels that too often people are stereotyped. Dave Garner goes along with this idea stating, everybody feels that they have to be like everyone else. They ' re afraid to be individuals. Michelle Dijak and Paulette Kaptur agree that a major problem is disinterest in school. Doesn ' t anybody care?— a common ques- tion among students. School is boring and monotonous, stated one student. That ' s why people are so disinterested! Other opinions about problems ranged from teachers hassling you to the well- known problem of drugs. Most of the stu- dents felt that people took drugs because they just couldn ' t take all the pressures— school, dating, parents, and just growing up! Have current problems, such as inflation, affected high school people? In most cases, the answer was a definite yes. The cost of jeans has really gone up, said Mary Klim- esewski, and I can only buy one record a month now. It ' s hurt my whole family because of the cost of gas, added Paulette Kaptur. Unemployment has also hurt a few stu- dents. One boy feels that he can ' t buy a lot of the things he wants because he can only find crummy jobs. Students graduating at THE SAME OLD THING. School is just one of the many pressures facing a teenager today. Homework, tests, extra-curricular ac- tivities— they all seem to add up. Art Booth takes a few minutes to look over his music before testing in choir. __ ■■p _ f 28 Problems, Opinions the semester had a really tough time finding good jobs. On the other hand, several kids felt that high schoolers shouldn ' t have to worry about unemployment. They felt that students should enjoy and take advantage of the high school years while they could. You ' re in high school for fun, said Frank Zabarte. I feel that a student should be active in extra- curricular activities. Having a job takes away from this. Many people agreed with Frank and added that with a job, you don’t even have time to study, much less extra-curricular activities. Of course, students have opinions about things other than problems. One of their favorite and most common things to talk about is music. Elton John got the most votes as being the best performer. His unique and fresh, new style scored highly with teens and teachers alike. Chicago was named again and again as the best group. Students felt that their mu- sic was moody and the lyrics were mean- ingful and original. Other groups men- tioned were Black Sabbath ( I like their vibes ), Stones (They get better as time goes on), Carpenters (I love soft rock and easy listening), and even the Platters (I ' m a nostalgia nut). Around Highland, most students felt that movies, games, and parties were the main sources of entertainment. The Sting was the most popular movie, with The Longest Yard and Trial of Bil- ly Jack following close behind. Classics such as Gone With the Wind and Romeo and Juliet were also well attended by High- land guys and gals. Problems and opinions ... I guess that it ' s only through these little things called problems that we learn to grow and un- derstand ourselves and the world around us. And I guess that it ' s only through things like opinions that we learn to express our- selves and communicate with others. Problems and opinions . . . to melt all those pressures and problems away. Takin g a try at announcing, John Simmons proves that Homecoming is one of these times. Raider Ko ARAB OIL . . . The year 1974 was marked by the increasing power of the Arab world. Behind this power was one thing— the Arabs held the world ' s largest oil supply. Because of this uniqueness of oil, the Arab coun- tries earned more than $1 12 billion from the rest of the world in the year 1974. The re- sult? The Arabs experienced the greatest and swiftest transfer of wealth in all history. In fact, these countries found it difficult to spend all their newly-earned wealth, and ended up having a payments surplus of $60 billion. This sudden shift of money shook the whole world. Because of the sudden shift, oil-exporting countries gained new political strength, as the economies of troubled im- porters were severely weakened. According to TIME mag azine, Saudi Arabia ' s King Faisal was the principle fac- tor in raising oil prices and now holds more power than any other leader to lower them or raise them more. Voted as TIME ' S Man of the Year, King Faisal brought an end to an era in which international oil companies dominated the Persian Gulf. His actions about oil prices and related matters touched in various degrees, the lives and pocket- books of virtually every human being on earth. The oil shift affected students as well as adults. As gas prices continued to climb, more students found themselves walking . . . RICHARD NIXON-A BROKEN MAN . . . An emotionally broken and dispirited man, Richard Nixon, resigned from the office of presidency on August 8. Found guilty of previous knowledge of the Watergate cover- up, Nixon was the first president in Ameri- GERALD FORD TAKES OVER . . . Vice president Gerald Ford, the first unelected president in our country, took the oath of office on August 12. Right away. President Ford called an all-out attack on domestic enemy number one— inflation. Jawboning strategies, WIN policies, tax cuts, and°balan- cing the budget were major weapons he set up to combat inflation. However, these pro- grams were set aside until a future date in order to solve pressing economic problems. At the start of his term. President Ford lost the support of many Americans by par- doning Nixon. As the months went on, the pardon was forgotten as citizens followed Ford ' s course of action in saving the econo- my .. . WHO WILL BE VICE PRESIDENT??? For several weeks in September, people won- dered who Ford would choose as his assis- tant. The probable candidate. Nelson Rocke- feller, was under investigation for tax evasion. However, he was found innocent, and he became the Vice President . . . PROBLEMS . . . Inflation hit its highest rate during the tail end of 1974 and start of 1975. The domestic enemy number one was running at 12 percent ... A falling GNP proved that the United States was also in a state of recession . . . Unemployment was at a rate of 8 percent. Students found it ex- tremely difficult to find jobs; even experi- enced workers were being layed off every day . . . The island of Cyprus was a constant source of battle in the Mediterranean . . . Under investigation was the CIA. The NEW YORK TIMES charged that it had been il- legally spying on many American citizens for about 20 years . . . Once again it became legal to buy and keep gold in the United States. However, Americans were not as en- thusiastic as dealers had hoped. Citizens felt that the metal was too risky an investment . . . The paper shortage and the sugar short- age took its toll in 1974. Newspapers were much scantier, and the price of sugar was up 400 percent . . . SPORTS SHORTS . . . Hank Aaron was MVP on the sports scene as he batted his way to fame with his 71 5 homer. Gymnast Olga Corbutt and tennis star Chris Evertt also scored as female athletes of the year. In the boxing ring, Muhammed Ali made a come- back, punching his way to the very top . . . ENTERTAINMENT ... All throughout the country, people flooded the cinemas to see the top movie attraction of the year, The Sting. Fresh new performers hit the charts this year enchanting young and old alike. The most popular were Elton John and Olivia Newton John. Chicago kept up its repu- tation as the best group. Jazz King, Duke Ellington met with death this year . . . For television buffs, Valerie Harper ' s tele- vision wedding as Rhoda was a big season opener . . . DETERMINED DRIBBLER. It takes lots of time and effort for the athlete who Is deter- mined to succeed. Here Scott Phillips han- dles the ball almost effortlessly as he races downcourt during basketball sectionals. jan Tankmen were proud to send five quali- fiers to the State Competition. Winners in- cluded seniors Bob Conces, Tim Murphy, Mark Mattison, and John Loker, and junior Tim Vidimos. Most students agreed that the basketball Sectional against Merriville was the most spirited game of the year. Unfortunately, it was als o the most heartbreaking one. Al- though the Pirates were highly favored, the Trojans stayed with them the entire game, losing by a mere three points, 78-75. Valu- able players included Brian Paluga and Rick Domesic. Practice and more practice seemed to be a motto for every team. Perspiring basket- ball players, sore gymnastics, and peppy cheerleaders created a maze of activity in the gym every day after school. The cafeteria held tumbling wrestlers, the pool, tired swimmers. Each team strived for victory, each team toiled, sweated, worked out for that one mom ent thay would prove themselves. For some it was a game, for others, an individual event, for all, a challenge . . . Silence prevailed in the packed gym- nasium as a lone bugle played our National Anthem. With the sounding of the last note, the crowd broke out into screaming cheers of applause and excitement to start off the most spirited game of the year-the High- land versus Merriville Sectonal. Donned in their white T-shirts and jeans, and led by senior Dan Drake, the Trojan T ' s set the pace through wild cheering and outspoken humor. Their spirit was conta- gious; soon the whole gym exerted a spirit of restless rivalry and unexpected school spirit. This one game brought not only an entire school together, but an entire com- munity as well . . . Sports . . .In some way or another, the world of sports touched the lives of virtu- ally every student in the high school. To the young athlete, a sport was a special test of skill, his own way of getting involved, a means of working off pressures. A dedi- cated coach gained the satisfaction of watch- ing young people grow and develop in both talent and attitudes. To the spectator, sport was merely a way of having fun, of letting off tensions, of getting together with friends. One could say that this world of sports had a certain magic that brought all kinds of people together— coaches, team members, parents, and students. So many emotions were felt in just one game. Tears of frustration w re offset by gleaming smiles of victory. Cringes of pain and disappointment contrasted with feelings of exhileration following a hard fought bat- tle. One player ' s embarrassing mistakes were overlooked by another ' s successes. Every practice, every disappointment, every set back seemed worthwhile as trophies and medals were taken home in the future. For most athletes, especially the seniors. Sectional Competition was the final test of skill. On February 8, the Trojan wrestlers took to their mats in the Highland Section- als. Placing fourth. Highland gave up its first Sectional crown in four years. How- ever, two team members, junior Randy Lepucki, and senior Dave Payo advanced to Regional Competition. Under the direction of coach Bob Croll, the swimmers took second in their Sectional. Held in Valporaiso on February 1 8, the Tro- Sectionals 33 TAKE A BREAK.

Randy Lepucki strains in the 145 lb. class to overcome an early opponent in the sectional. He went on to win his weight class. UP AND OVER. As a large crowd witnesses it, Noel Ruebel arches his back over the bar, clearing another fantastic height. IT ' S A LONG HARD ROAD. Grimacing as he comes around the curve, Joe Menzyk catches up to his opponent. JUMPING TO THE SKY! Launching off from the runway, Brian Sapp begins the long climb up to the record setting height of ♦he bar 34 Boys’ Track To nobody ' s surprise, the Highland track team won their fourth straight con- ference victory with ease. But disaster struck when they entered sectionals. After winning five straight sectional titles, skills somehow ran too low and the squad was forced to settle for a second place, closely behind the Hammond High Wildcats. Led by team captains Noel Ruebel, Gary Washington, and Dave Smith, the Trojans proved they ' re one of the best in the region. Each individual member made a big contri- bution to the team ' s efforts. They seemed to take it upon themselves to be sure they each did a good job, and were proud of what they did. Noel Ruebel could be considered one of the most valuable players, as his constant first places in the high jump always helped the score. His own record was a 7 ' jump. John Valiska certainly had nothing to be ashamed of, since he followed right behind Ruebel, often winning second place. Long-distance runners Gary Washington, Lou and Steve Serna, and Carl Zakulak added many points. Scott Sieb, Joe Menzyk, Dave Teague and Jeff Courtwright ran the 440 and 880. Sprinters Tim Vassar, Dave Galloway and Dave Gereau made good times. Brian Sapp and Jim Middleton climbed to the sky in the pole vaulting competition. Mark Pataky and Rick Smith . did their part in the discus event, with Pataky breaking records. CAUGHT IN MID AIR. Long jumper Dave Smith wings his way over the pit for extra inches. ' TOGETHER WE ' LL GET ' EM. Staying out in front, Gary Washington and Steve Serna compete for first and second place in another track meet. Boys ' Track 35 JOB WELL DONE. Gina Gamaleri gives a bubbling smile as she proudly accepts a medal. As a sopho- more, Gina travelled to Regionals. GRIN AND BEAR ITI Laura Milligan strides with full-force for another first place finish. Laura vies the only team member to compete at State. Keep on running! Coached by Miss Ruth Brozek, the girls ' track team finished its regular season action with a 5-0 mark. Ten returning runners helped to aid this 36 Girls Track Injuries plagued the team at the begin- ning of the season, but the determination of the girls always seemed to pull through. Each victory seemed to push the girls to strive for another. Victory after victory was plain to see as the Milligan Sisters Three pulled through at every meet. The girls ' abilities, Laura (220 yard dash), Linda (high jump), and Lottie (hurdles), were unbelievable sights to see. The enthusiastic team practiced hard. As a result of this, they defeated the area teams to capture the sectional title at Gavit High School. Out of the 1 1 girls that qualified for Sectionals, 8 qualified for Regionals. They were Laura, Linda, and Lottie Milligan, Joyce Barnes, Dana Elish, Gina Gamaleri, Carrie Karl, and LuAnn Waldrop. Laura Mil- ligan went to state and competed.

Among the best were Connie Swan- son, Pam Wilson, Ann Fitzpatick, and Patty Whiston. Waking up at 6:00 a.m., the sleepy-eyed Trojan netgirls practiced on Saturdays at Mansard Raquet Club ' s indoor courts. On the courts after school. Coach Hope often yelled, Slide, slide, and I want to see some good volleys! Conference champs? Right, for the third time. Having the largest baseball team and conference batting average, Dan Legler led the team as an all-conference player. Third baseman, Mike Mutka and catcher, John Hanrahan added to the best of the team. Legler ' s .489 conference batting average and Hanrahan ' s five home runs both set school records. Brian Paluga and Rick Domsic proved very successful pitchers. Domsic had six wins and Paluga set a school record of .331 ERA ' S. KEEP THAT MAN ON. Guarding the base.

' 1 L_ LjUr I was happy with the outcome of the season, commented Mr. Larry Hopkins at the close of his first year as Highland ' s tennis coach. The Trojan season was fairly successful as three out of five conference meets were taken. Munster and Griffith were the toughest teams to lose to, but a third place in conference was captured in spite of it. Bill Carson won nine of his 1 1 matches, includ- ing a 6-4, 6-2 win over Steve Rothstein of Munster. Jon Janott and Garry Cox were also very competitive netmen. IHSAA sectionals were a difficult thing and disappointing to the team, as Jon Janott was the only player undefeated. PRACTICING HARD! Mike Seasock works extra hard at practice, with thoughts of the tough match ahead. GOT TO REACH HIGHER! Jon Janott stretches to the highest point he can to power the ball over the net.

Highland ' s linkmen chalked up another successful season on the golf course, adding to the’ glory of many victorious spring sports. The varsity golf team finished with an over- all record of 21-7, tying for 3rd in the con- ference race. Pride grew when the squad woi 1st in sectionals. Don Moffett, Tom Lamantia, Greg O ' Con- nor, Jim Bogusz and Joe Lebryk composed the varsity team, sharing the happiness of a good season. Coach Porter Evans reflects that, First goals and priorities of the season were to win the conference. Being the type who looks ahead and thinks a lot about the future, Evans continued, Two regulars will be back with us next year. O ' Connor and Lamantia were both team leaders, and will probably do the«ame thing again. Hopefully, we can even win the state finals! They may not have succeeded in their first goal of winning the conference title, but somehow they managed to sweep the other teams away in sectional competition! CONGRATULATIONS. Accepting an award for an outstanding achievement, Don Moffett thanks Mr. Evans at the annual All-Sports banquet. PUSHING ON. Out-running his Lowell opponent, Dave Teague pushes himself even faster and harder AROUND THE BEND. Striving to beat his Emer- son opponent, Brian Sapp enters the final stretch THE PRESSURE ' S ON. Steve Guerrero stretches every foot into a yard as he runs in the Highland Invitational. They came on strong late in the season, but we started practice too late to be as good as we ' d like to have been, reflected Coach Collet as he thought about the ' 74 cross country season. Collet feels that his first year at Highland was a productive one. With four returning lettermen, Don Guer- reo, Brian Sapp, Dave Teague and Steve Guerrero, the team was fortunate to have a good deal of experience, Steve Guerrero was the only member who sustained an injury, and was out for four meets. Everyday practices, including Saturdays, consisted of running four to six miles on their own before school, as well as seven to ten miles after school. These hard work-outs helped the team win many things, including the defeat of Griffith in eight of the nine times they faced each other. But when up against Munster, things didn ' t go as well. The Mustangs beat them, while Crown Point and Calumet joined the action against the Trojans. As they say, You can ' t win them all! During the September-October season, the runn ing team compiled a 6-4 record in quadrangular, triangular and dual meets. They ended up fourth in their own invita- tional, out of 13 teams. Sectionals brought a fifth place standing for the team with Lou Serna finishing 21st. Bob Sharp followed closely with 22nd place. Serna was also seventh best in the conference. UP IN FRONT.

Clasped hands signify the togetherness of the defensive huddle as Art Pasqui- II i calls the next play, shown here at a practice. Man, what a season! This was only one of many comments heard at the last football game in 1974. With 17 senior letter- men on the team. Highland ' s football squad boasted a lot of size and speed. The men of Troy finished with a record of 4-6. Holding third place in the Lake Suburban conference, the Trojans won decisive victories over Griffith, Lake Central and Calumet. Tragic losses to the Merrillville Pirates and Crown Point Bulldogs helped to lower the status of the gridmen. Highland failed to win the Bridge Trophy from the Munster Mustangs, even with a very hard fought battle and close score, 14-12. Tim Vassar picked up duties as a chief rusher after Larry Toper was injured and un- able to play for the season. Dan Mroczkow- ski was also sidelined for a short time with an injury. Art Pasquinelli led the defense with 156 tackles. Joe Menzyk, Randy Lepucki and quarterback Greg Mucha also proved valuable players. THE AGONY OF DEFEAT. Suffering off the field as well as on the field, Trojan Dan Drake watches his team fight a losing battle. The Trojans fell to Merriville, 16-14, in the Homecoming game. jNfl COMING THROUGH.

Coach Smith halts practice for a brief moment to advise the first string offensive line on some new plays Varsity Football 47 Winning isn ' t everything, it ' s the only thing! This seemed to be the theme of the Highland JV football squad during the ' 74 season. Finishing with a 5-3 record, the Tro- jans lost only to Valparaiso, Merrillville, and Griffith. A decisive victory over Munster was a first for the squad in many years. Offensively, the team was led by quarterback Bob Murphy. Keith Grady was the second string fill-in for Murphy, follow- ing closely behind the starter in passing. Jim Turpin was the best rusher for the Men of Troy , racking up a total of 1006 yards in JV games. He and several teammates joined the varsity squad for their last game. Linebackers Dick Carroll and Curt Ford, along with tackle Mark Schaller, were among the leaders in tackles and assists. Only a few minor injuries marred the JV ' s successful season. We can always look back and guess what might have been done better, but we can ' t change a thing. Even with those guessing games, the team was backed up by both fans and parents. HITCHIN ' A RIDE? No. that ' s only Jim Turpin showing his teammates that he thinks they ' ve got another one. Turpin turned varsity his last game. JV FOOTBALL. Bottom row; J. Turpin. B. Mur- phy, T. Potts, J.

Mark Pataky ' s eyes may be drifting toward someone that could help him, but he ' s close to earning a point for an escape. ROLL HIM OVER! Elmer Lucas tries his hardest both physically and mentally as he attempts to decision his Calumet opponent to aid the Trojan score. We had an above average dual meet sea- son, but we did not reach my expectations in the tournament season, Coach Larry Johnson said in summing up the varsity wrestling season. Practices two hours a day, six days a week produced a 10-1-1 record for the grap- plers. Randy Lepucki and Dave Payo were Point and Lowell were the toughest oppo- nents. Though Calumet sent no one down- state, they had a better balanced team and thus broke our Trojan ' s four year mono- poly at sectionals. Johnson said the lineup was pretty well established, but he did test JV wrestlers Mark Wozniewski, Brian Sleeman and Dan Gaskill once. PRESSURE, PRESSURE! Pete Gyure, the only sophomore on the varsity wrestling team, is working as hard as he can to cap- ture a victory. ng , ap- A mmm champs of their weight classes in sectionals, while Dah Luce and Mark Pataky joined them for regional competition. Dave Payo went into final rounds there, but lost to Mike Daugherty of Gary Andrean. This was the first time in eight years that nobody was able to go to state finals. Coach Johnson felt that Calumet, Crown Dan Luce, Pete Gyure, Tim Messman, Paul Michalec, Dick Morgan, Jack Botilla, Dave Smith, Randy Lepucki, Mark Pataky, Elmer Lucas and Jack Fogarty all turned in good performances and look forward to a chance for improvement in the future. Phil Butler and Dave Payo both finished with something to be proud of. ALMOST THERE! Randy Lepucki s oppo- nent looks helpless and almost defeated. Randy won his weight division of sectionals for the second time. r GET OUT OF IT! Dan Luce, wrestling in the 98 pound weight class, struggles to get away from a tight spot that could put him in danger of losing his match. Wrestling 51 30 rn l mm Set, spike, score! This was the varsity team ' s motto during the ' 74 season, and they did their best to live up the words they chose. With Ms. Sharon Sheline again serving as mentor for the squad, the team finished with 14 wins and only 4 losses. Returning for their third year were seniors Front Row: Carrie Karl, Ann Fitzpatrick, Judy Muntean, Pam Wilson, Renee Van Gorp, Barb Wolek. Back row: Kathy Klawitter, Karen Phil- lips, Carol Robinson, Joyce Barnes, Julie Abatie, 30 30 30 Ann Fitzpatrick, Carrie Karl, Judy Muntean, Pam Wilson and Renee Van Gorp. Together they took the team to the most experienced season it has known. Gavit and Lowell proved to be Highland ' s roughest opponents all year. According to Ms. Sheline, Highland lost to the second best team in the state, since after winning sec- tionals, the Gladiators lost to Muncie, the 74 Indiana champion. Ms. Sheline also said the match with Lowell would have been closer, had it not been for many bad calls. Also posting a winning season, the J V volleyball squad represented Highland well Led by spiker Barb Lubarski, the team lost to Gavit and Morton, but beat Lowell in a hard-fought match. A loss to Munster was eased when the girls beat Griffith in a match which saw the varsity squad lose. Sectionals? Wait ' til next year, say the girls. WHAT A SMASHER! Carrie Karl clobbers the ball over the net as Joyce Barnes intently watches. NO, NO! DON ' T LOSE IT NOW! The girls basket- ball team members learn the best way to handle the ball during one of their games. OH, REALLY? Coach Mary Schwegamn talks to one of her players, while the other team members consider what is ahead of them in the game. JUMP HIGH JUMP LOW! Trojan girl cagers can jump really high when they put their mind to it, and that ' s all part of what it takes to win. DRIBBLE AWAY! Carrie Karl dribbles the ball downcourt, bandaged knee and all, do- ing all she can to help the team win another one. 54 Girls ' Basketball Experience racked up a lot of the girls basketball team ' s victories, as they shot into their second year of competition. Coached by Mrs. Mary Schwegman and her first year assistant. Miss Audrey Satterbloom, the team finished proudly with a second place in the conference and an 8-3 record. High scorers for the varsity squad were Kathy Klawitter, whose highest number of points in a game was 19, Cheryl Antone, who tossed in 16, and Carrie Karl, who fol- lowed with a high of 14. The rest of the team backed them up, adding their points and rebounds. All victories were confident, re- marked Coach Schwegman, and our only bad loss was to Munster. Gavit was a tough one, too. The JV team did well in their second season, closing with a 10-1 record. Power shooters for them were Karen Phillips, Trish Bolsega and Sharon Foust. Both teams worked hard all season at long, tough practices five days a week, al- ternating their share of the gym time with the boys ' team. ONE SHOE ON AND ONE SHOE OFF!

According to Coach Mike Sorrell, all these things make a great basketball team. The cagemen did a respectable job, concluding the season with an over-all record of 7-13. Led by all juniors except three, the Trojans came from the bottom to the top by finish- ing second in conference play. Helping the cause was Jay Wortman, the only senior, who came to Highland this year from Ohio. During the season, the cagemen went through tough times as two of the key players were injured. Brian Paluga had a disappointing time as his ankle injury kept him out of play for five games at the beginning of the season. The New Castle contest was a jinx again, this time not only to the team ' s scoring, but to Marty Johnson as well, as he left the game with a broken foot. He resumed play with the team later in the season. Competi- tion was tough, but the Trojans pulled through. VARSITY BASKETBALL. Bottom row: Manager D. Moore, J. Zatkulak, D. Slifko, B. Paluga, T.

The season record was 10-5 with disappointing losses to Mer- rillville, Munster and Bishop Noll. Victories over Griffith, Chesterton, Hammond High and Lowell boosted team morale. The Trojan tankmen placed third in con- ference and in the Lake Suburban-Duneland invitational. Tim Vidimos holds school rec- ords in the 50, 100, and 200 free style. Bob Conces holds the school record in the 100 yard breast stroke and is also a member of both relay teams. Mark Mattison claims the record in the 200 individual relay. Mr. Bob Croll feels the team did great as a whole, adding that, The team finished one of its best over all records in its history. ' This year was the first time Highland fin- ished in the top ten state rankings. Coach Croll also felt that the attendance at the meets was so much better that he thought it really gave the swimmers the incentive to improve. The swimmers practiced hard ever since September, holding the proud ranking they have. They sent John Loker, Tim Vidimos, Bob Conces, Mark Mattison and diver Tim Murphy to the state meet. SWIMMING.

The toughest competition for the girls came from Munster, Portage, and Merrill- ville. Practices for at least 2 hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week, beginning in November and ending in March produced many indi- vidual first places. Karen Engerksi had the most first place honors, while Mary Pollitz and Janet Moore followed behind her. Karen Engerski, Betsy Orlich and Lee Barnes faced competition on the beginning level of beam, floor exercise, vault and bars. Mary Pollitz, Janet Moore, Sharon Mravca and the Vajda twins, Darcy and Denise, were on the intermediate level. Tami Valiska, Judy Muntean, Beth Stark, and Janet Wag- ner had to work as hard as possible to be competitive on the optional level. As the season ended, it proved to be suc- cessful for all the girls who worked hard almost every day. The team showed that hard work and team effort go hand in hand with success. CHALKING UP.

Some of the stronger players inclu- ded Jack Bottila, Tony Giba and Kyle Ruebel. Coached by John Onoff, the X-Country team worked as a whole to achieve victories. Mike Stewart, Mike Gasvoda, Steve Hepburn and Bob Albright were outstanding as they competed in JV and varsity meets. Frosh wrestling had a victorious season as they were totally undefeated. Tony Giba had 13 takedowns, with Bob Vacen- dak and John Reed having 11 reversals. Chuch Puntillo succeeded in 7 pins and Doug Mutka had 12 near falls. John Onoff, frosh basketball coach, says his team did fairly well, defeating Morton and losing to Lake Central. Other competi- tive teams were Gavit, Bishop Noll and Griffith. Jim Hawley and Curt Keltner added to the team ' s success, as freshman Jeff Simmons played JV all season. INTENSE. Coach Larry Johnson and members of his team watch the furious action during the Wrestling sectional. i Our team is dynamite! But so are the varsity and JV cheerleaders. Enthusiastically, the spirit boosters worked with determina- tion to keep the spirit going. Hard practices never ceased which brought on a successful season for the girls. Led by varsity captain, Susie Justak, the squad consists of Gina Gamaleri, Janet Moore, Beth Stark, and Malinda Yarnell. By attending the U.S.C.A. camp in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, the five girls brought back various awards. Among these were five ribbons and two individual trophies. A third place trophy was awarded to Susie Justak and a fourth place trophy went to Janet Moore. Under captain Sue Leyden, the JV squad worked faithfully to back their teams. Karen Beison, Michelle Engerski, Charlotte Gauthier, Julie Smith, Terry Stockhem, and alternates Desla Alexander and Barb Gar- gano comprised the JV squad. C ' MON, TROJANS!

Majorettes entered into the Powderpuff festivities as Kathy Matusic, Nancy Logan and Betsy Orlich performed the impromptu half-time show. The tradition was broken! For the first time in nine years, the so-called inexperi- enced juniors defeated the seniors, 22-6. Mr. Hedges coached the junior offense, 1971 alumni, Dan Gamaleri, was busy coach- ing the defense of Hedges Hustlers. As the juniors were practicing, Mr. Tim Nolen and his Nasties , were busy going over plays and getting them downpat for the game. Finally, October 16 rolled around. Key player for the juniors was halfback, Lottie Milligan, as she scored three touchdowns. The seniors found it difficult to move the ball against the talented junior defense which was led by Debbie Bair and JoAnn Porta. Quarterback, Carrie Karl was an impor- tant player for the seniors. The juniors couldn ' t stop Carrie ' s throwing ability as she passed to Barb Nugent for the seniors only touchdown. CURLERS IN YOUR HAIR?

C ' mon you guys, you can be louder!” You could expect to hear these comments from the Booster Block officers at just about every game. This was the main job of president, Karen Moore. Working along with Karen were Charlotte Rohrman, vice-president, Judy Muntean, treasurer, and Beth Moffett, secretary. Besides encouraging the block to scream, raising money was also very important. Bake sales always went well, as an abundance of goodies were made. The sale of Trojan but- tons also added to the necessities of Booster Block. To brighten up Booster Block, Lettergirls were chosen once again. This year, along with the seniors, juniors were eligible to be lettergirls. Along with alternates, eighteen girls were chosen to sit in front of the block and spell out HIGHLAND TROJANS in uniform. Working along with Miss Anast, captain Shelley Michalak was to see that all things went well. Yells got louder. Cheerleaders cheered harder. Booster block gave its all to the teams. Gosh is that a big tree! Who put it up? Key Club did. They must have had a big ladder! Putting up the town Christmas tree was only part of Key Club ' s annual activities. Others included making homecoming and Christmas parade floats, helping Kiwanis on Peanut Day and at their pancake breakfast and ushering at choral concerts. Pulling weeds at a local railroad crossing was a community project that made it easier for drivers to see oncoming trains. Club members played basketball on Monday nights and went to see a Chicago Bulls game. Going out to lunch on a Thursday isn ' t a bad idea, is it? Key Clubbers went to the Kiwanis luncheon as guests.

Get those knees up! Hearing these commands may remind you of an army officer, but it ' s only the majorettes doing their thing. Sponsor, Mrs. Marion Hoyda and captains, Mary Pollitz and Denise Mitseff got things off to a great start. Working with 22 girls, hours of hard work were put into each practice. Various routines and arm move- ments were created which led to awards and recognition. Among these awards was a second place brought back from Ball State. The majorettes and the band achieved a superior rating while at NISBOVA. A first place was happily received by the majorettes and band at the Labor Day Parade held in Griffith. Besides the awards, the cheerful majorettes had fun times performing half- time shows at all the football and basketball games. 76 Majorettes mm m WAY TO GO!

Under the direction of Mr. Arthur Hen- derlong, Patty Hranchak, Jim Umpleby, and Art Booth, the 120 member band traveled to Ball State where they received second place among 26 bands. They also participated in the NISBOVA contest, receiving a superior rating. In the Griffith Labor Day Parade, they marched off with first place over Mun- ster ' s band.

Swaying to the sound of the jazz band ' s music, the Chamber Singers provide spectators with a contemporary combination of songs. Sing, sing a song! Among the many voices that participate in choir and chorus are the individual singing groups. Chamber Singers, the most well-known group, was made up of sixteen guys and girls, who were picked from choir. Mainly seniors, the Chamber Singers practiced two nights a week and more often just before performances. They sang for many Highland organizations and elemen- tary schools. A new back-up band was added to assist the group at their performances. Mr. Gordon Wilder, director, and Miss Deb- orah Threlkeld, who coordinated the chore- ography, deserve much credit for both time and efforts. Junior Ensemble, a mini Chamber Singers, was selected from Chorus. They made their appearances at the annual fall, Christmas and spring concerts. Meanwhile, the Highland High pep band entertained the crowds before basketball games and at half-time. They provided the music for the majorette dance routines. Jazz band participated in concerts and jazz band festivals. On Stage 81 ANGELS SINGING? Voices of the choir echo through the autumny air as the audience listens. 82 Choir, Chorus AM TBB soaraos Practice, practice, practice and then per- form! What other groups in the school do that other than those that sing? Not many! All the sounds that one could hear from the music rooms when the choral groups were practicing must have come out all right. Five choral concerts, the Choral Festival and West Side Story were presented. The spring concert on March 1 1 and the Choral Festival on March 14 were performed in con- junction with Music In Our Schools Day, which was on March 13. There were other presentations besides those given at the school. Several groups went caroling and the Chamber Singers per- formed for various organizations. Solos and ensembles performed at the NISBOVA piano and vocal contest on February 1 . IT ' S LIKE THIS!

K iSCREECfiSRS ' mm Who in their right minas would get up at 4:00 AM on a SATURDAY morning to catch a bus? The Highland Speech Team, of course! Early hours were taken for granted as the speech season wore on. Under captain Camille Turich, the team nicknamed themselves the Screechers, and consisted of many new members as well as returning veterans. Several sweepstakes trophies and many ribbons marked success- ful meets. Crazily-clad cheerleaders, humorous pep rallies, and overnight meets added to the excitement of the season. Coached by Joe Fetty and Larry Stuber, the speech and debate teams were only part of the total Speech-Arts club. The Drama Club and Thespians were also included. The total club was under direction of president, Leslie Shiel. Several activities contributed to a fun- filled year. Car washes and bake sales brought in money, as parties, Homecoming float sessions, and Christmas caroling pro- vided entertainment. To wrap up the year, the annual Speech- Arts banquet was held at the Scherwood club. GETTING CREAMED.

Greensleeves Magic was the first drama production of the year. Starring T racy Smith and Mary Heller, the play opened in October, directed by Mr! Stuber and Scott Smith. An onion and jelly sandwich, a couch that tipped over, and mysterious notes in a toilet all added to the behind-the-scenes hap- penings in Never Too Late. Featuring Camille Turich and Roy Fitzwater, the com- edy was a huge success. The play took place on November 22 and 23, and was directed by Ms. Dehm and Mary Heller. Spoon River Anthology and Romeo and Juliet were also scheduled for the ' 74- ' 75 school year. Drama club president, Nan- cy Davison and Thespian president Scott Smith worked together to promote tryouts and play participation. Ms. Dehm sponsored the newly-found Drama Club. fimim APATR3J Student Council ' s active members experi- enced a rather disappointing year, due to the lack of enthusiasm among the student body. From their efforts they did have fairly good results, though. Money making projects played a big part in the group ' s activities. Members were auc- tioned off during a slave auction. Teachers and students were permitted to buy a slave. They collected profit as they worked for their owners for two days. Garbage cans were colorfully decorated for a garbage campaign. Money was thrown in and the richest garbage can won. Mini-courses? A new system of them was set up for the last two days before spring vacation, when everyone felt like goofing around. Teachers taught everyday things such as how to change a tire or paint a room. Council sponsored two successful dances as well as student exchanges to schools like Lake Central, Munster and Merrilleville. These were beneficial to learning about other schools and their councils. Extra work brought a hypnotist for a convocation, and an attempt was made to turn Council into a regular class. Officers included president, Linda Milli- gan; vice-president, Fran Weinstein; secre- tary, Sue Lazur; and treasurer, Donora Lutes. That ' s our school in student repre- sentative form! MOVIN ' ON.

Joey, along with secretary, Ruth Amick, and trea- surer, Roy Fitzwater planned the taco sale and a stuffed animal sale. Mrs. Rice and Mrs. Casiano are the sponsors. While the Spanish Club was busy with their activities, the French Club was being active in their own way. Christmas caroling was part of their fun activities, along with a suc- cessful popcorn ball sale. President, Lillian McCandless; vice president, Laura Chihara; secretary, Mark Fitzgerald; treasurer, Robin Lenzo;and historian, Mary Ann Klimazewski all helped to make this year successful. A float by the German Club was entered in the town Christmas parade on December 7. A bake sale was also held.

Frau Beretz is the sponsor. 90 Language “Hey, are you going to the game to- night? No, I don ' t think so. I ' m kind of tired. These are a few of the many quotes heard everyday in Highland High School. Why is there lack of enthusiasm at High- land High? This situation can ' t really be pin- pointed down to one topic. There are num- erous reasons, some of which are simply ex- cuses. At the beginning of school, involvement was successful on everybody ' s part. But, as school lingered on, involvement in school began to lessen. For example, the beginning of the foot- ball season was a complete success. An over abundance of people showed up to cheer the winning team on. But, as football season ended and basketball started; things differed because of the team ' s bad start. People showed up at the home games because the gym was only a few steps away and there was nothing else to do. Away games seemed to be too much of a strain to attend. Teams needed support at away games just as much as at home, even more. Pep sessions seemed to prove the im- maturity in most people that just didn ' t care. These people used the pep session just to skip class. They ruined the fun of the people who were there that really did show spirit. Paper airplanes and wads of paper _ were thrown on the gym floor while a half- _ way decent pep session was trying to be conducted. But, it was hard! Nobody wants these particular people attending sporting events if they aren ' t going to cooperate. Other than excuses, there proves to be other reasons why some students just aren ' t involved. A lot of students took on the re- sponsibility of a job. To some students, this was more important than school activities. Seniors had their hands full dealing with the future and making decisions. Student Council is really important to the students in other schools. Why isn ' t it here? Sure, people sign up for student council and other activities to pretend they ' re involved. It ' s a different story when they find out there ' s a meeting to attend. It ' s then a con- stant struggle to decide what to do. That is, ' IPS ' 1§ mv � whether to attend the meeting so their conscience won ' t bother them or to go home and relax. Well, Student Council along with Key Club and other activities could probably find other people who really care to spend their time making this school a success. Would ' t it be nice if everybody could brag about Highland High and be proud about it? For a few people it ' s possible, but there is one big problem. Other people ruin it for these capable people. It is too bad this is an impossible thought. Too bad this is only a dream. It will continue to be a dream to some until their peer group of Highland High would pitch in and help out. Until that day, year, or whatever arrives, a word to the involved. Hang in there! Your work will be recognized in some way, some day, some how! _ Gina Gameleri BIIM%y K RAND HCC members, meeting at 3:00 today to discuss the upcoming dance . . . ! Announce- ments like these are very common every morning, and health careers club certainly has its share. In its third year at Highland, HCC was active in the school agenda. Placing first in the club float competition for homecoming, taking handicapped children to the zoo, and sponsoring a dance were among the club ' s activities. International club is just getting onto its feet this year at Highland. It is based on American Field Service and Youth for Un- derstanding, making one large club. The pur- pose in mind is to promote international understanding as well as learning cultures of different countries. Mr. Thomas Doukas, sponsor, has been working with Fran Weinstein, president, and the rest of the club in planning bake sales, a Christmas float and a donkey basketball game. SNOWMAN BRINGS CHEER.

Halloween insurance, selling cookbooks, a hayride, daddy-date night, doughnut sales before school, ski trips, going to the covered bridge festival and par- ticipation in National FHA Week filled the minds of FHA members, as well as their calendars. Officers Patty Hranchak, Celia Watson, Marian Grcevich and Tammi Cheney were among those at the district meeting on March 1 5. Several members worked on the award-winning homecoming float, while others walked in the homecoming and Christmas parades. SAE, formerly known as Future Teachers of America, kept its main goal of sponsoring cadet teaching again this year. President Deb Minard and others worked on various activities, including a homecoming float. NOW I SAID MY ABC S.

ROTC members extended their activities beyond the class- room in many directions. Presenting the colors before football and basketball games, as well as other school functions, was included. In another direction, the students took field trips to out-of-town education. Grissom Air Force Base, Glenview and O ' Hare Airport were some of those. Marching in town parades, rain or shine, has been a tradition of ROTC, and it was again continued this year. Stadium cushions sales were their source of money. Student aids were those kids that always typed things, ran them off or graded papers for teachers. Although only half credit was received, the aids worked even harder than they did in some other classes. After all, isn ' t typing a ditto for a teacher just as difficult as sitting in a typing class for an hour typing letters? Office aids also offered a big help to the entire office staff. They not only answered phones, but ran all over the school to deliver the messages to students or teachers. HOLD IT PROUDLY!

Bill Smith and Dan Drake shot and developed, and Mary Slicko, besides working on the academics section, took pictures, including the yearbook cover. Kurt Masepohl, until his tragic death in November, served as photographer for the Shield, and did photography for Emanon, the literary magazine. The Kurt Masepohl Photography Award, to be presented annual- ly to the best photographer in the Journal- ism Department, was begun this year in his memory. Rick Smith won the honor this year. He received a plaque for himself, and had his name engraved on the permanent trophy. LOWER THE F STOP.

With these words Leslie Shiel and her yearbook staff determined the theme of this year ' s Shield, and also set the tone of atti- tude and work for the year. Under the direction of Les, whom the adviser. Miss Barbara Mayer, called the best editor she has ever had, the yearbook moved at a record pace. Every deadline was not only met on time, but was made with pages to spare. Linda Milligan and Sue Lazur, associate editors in charge of layout and organiza- tions, were great helps to Les. Carol Murrish and Gina Gamaleri, copy editors, led a crew of dedicated writers through the 224 pages of creative and factual reporting. Rick Smith led photographers, and section editors worked with members of the largest staff the Shield has had in recent years. The Shield staff also sent a record number of members to Quill and Scroll, journalism ' s honor society. OH, NO!

Looking up some material for his report, Tim Murphy leafs through the book for an interesting research topic. 104 3 Remember the ole ' reading, writing and ' rithmetic? Here it is in high school re- search form! Some classes predominate this category a little more than some others. For example, science courses involve research and study, but also include lab work and some fun. Other classes seem to be no fun at all, yet are so important to a person ' s education. Mr. Mel Anderson, the math department head, feels the metric system is quickly coming upon us, although the complete change may not take place for several years. Therefore, he is trying to make the students ready for it. This is all mixed in with algebra, geometry, trigonometry or calculus. New faces have hit the math department, as well as the rest of the school. Ms. Alice Halpin, Ms. Susan Sikora and Ms. Dana Christensen are all in their first year at High- land, teaching math. Independent study is a new approach being used in economics, where students do research on economic topics at their own rate of speed. Any student had the oppor- tunity to study in this manner. A history library is a new addition to the department— lots of new things! U.S. history classes continued playing their two simulation games, Disunia and Panic. Mock elections were also included in that program. Some juniors were put into regular lecture classes, at random, so they learned more about actual history than the up-to-date problems. Research -THE WHOLE THING? Pam Kwasny pre — pares to outline the chapter she was assigned in her history course, taught by Mr. Tom Summers and Mr. Porter Evans. - COME ON SNAKE EYES! Monopolizing the dice in Econ. class, Dave Kurz hopes for a good number while Renee Van Gorp and Brad Wenne r wait for their turn. CONCENTRATION.

Equipped with safety goggles, two Chemistry students complete their experiment with the dangerous solu- tion. Q Lab 107 End of six weeks tomorrow, so all work is due at 3:00 today! Both foreign language and science students heard this often in their various classes. The six weeks end brought more of a mad rush for those classes than others. For the second year, advanced biology students were required to write up mini- courses for the general biology students to use a study guides. Finally, they hope to have a room specifically for these mini- courses and then individualize the program. I.S.C.S. enrollment has dropped, while the chemistry classes are larger this year. Individualized studies were dropped in the language department, except for the Ger- man that Mrs. Beretz teaches. Conversation- al Spanish was also dropped from the list of course offerings. The headphone labs were frequently used in all the rooms that have them. SPRECHEN SIE DEUTSCH? Listening carefully German students work on their listening exercises Calisthenics begin in 10 minutes! Did you practice your music today? ' Transcription test tomorrow! These are only a few of the things mentioned in classes concerning skills. In gym, for instance, you must be able to have coordination and most of all grace and balance. This, of course, is necessary for the gymnastics team as well. Band members must participate in marching and practice one ' s music daily. Can you picture an unpracticed Marching Trojan? On the other hand, business skills such as typing and shorthand require lots of practice and memorization. Typing requires the knack of learning the keyboard and prac- ticing daily. In shorthand, you must remem- ber all the brief forms. Both speed and ac- curacy are needed to keep up a good grade. Skills are a necessary part of these classes. Some of these skills are very hard to keep up with, but they can be performed if the mind is put forth. Do you have the prop- er requirements to attend any of these classes? Maybe a class should be started for proper coordination! ANYTIME NOW! Acting as soccer goalie in his P.E. class, Ron Chiabai waits anxiously for a piece of the action. 108 Skills THEY ' RE OFF! Trying to beat his last timing in typing class, Dave Clark gets his eyes to the mate- rial and his fingers to the keyboard. BLOW YOUR HORN? Musical skills require keep- ing up with the beat, and Kevin Hoover stays with it in Jazz Band, which meets first period. English department? New faces? Plenty! Mrs. Diane Warren, in her first year of teach- ing at Highland finds the mini-course system beneficial to both the students and teachers. She feels that the changes from class to class make things less boring, more interesting, and leaves the kids with the teachers they like or choose. New ideas? Sure! Mrs. Judy Ozug is now teaching a new mini-course, Living in the City. Members of her two classes taking this, went on a field trip to Chicago. The purpose in mind was to get a little closer t o the big industry and city life— which isn ' t always very pleasant. First year art students are required to take the basic design mini-course. Miss Mar- jorie Bluhm explains, That is the elements and principles of design, where the students learn about shapes, lines and color. Life posters, candle-making, basketry, acrylics and water colors were other choices for all the students. Priorities come when you ' re an upper classman, for the seniors got first pick of what they prefer. NOT TOO MUCH! Lost in his creativity. Matt Kondrat carefully adds color to his drawing in Art Appreciation class.

You may go your way and I ' ll go mine, And we may see each other from time to time. But although my life ' s changed now that I ' m without you, Don ' t ever believe that our bond is through.

Then the wax can be put back together and start another light which will be growing shorter to the ending of its life. Jim Robinson Sandman sleeps Behind the trees a faint shadow of your voice the slightest notion of the wind disturbs the branches and the stars, glimmering, secret to let this moment pass by has never been forgotten you are there and the autumn ' s night reveals your presence you are but one in thousands alone, unashamed you are but free and forever flying high amongst tomorrow ' s dreams.

I am what I am I ' ll be what I ' ll be. If I become different I still will be me. Patty Reed F sdewlslup Friendship is the coexistence of two individual personalities, similar or conflicting. To become free from one ' s world long enough to understand the world of another. To share, to dream, to expand, Where pride is no longer a barrier, and the heart is the only source of com- munication. Karen Fullenwider A STQRS We had lived in the new house for little more than a year when we got Chips, a nervous black dog with a background of temporary homes and severe mistreat- ment. Whether our similarity, that of being wary of unfamiliar surroundings, made us inseparable companions is difficult to say. I only know that by the end of that first winter, my four-year-old world was suddenly a happier one, secure under the eyes of my big black angel. And Chips himself, finally shown love, had learned to show trust. The following Spring brought the usual flurry of work demanded by a new house. Having natural talent for getting in the way. Chips and I were demoted to the confines of our muddy, sodless backyard. We spent long dull hours there, he at the end of his chain, whimpering mournfully, and I sitting nearby, stroking his fine silky head to calm him. I was loyal to this duty until the men started to sod the front yard. A huge dirt mountain attracted my attention, and I deserted Chips. Sliding or climbing, I could hear him, still tied up in the backyard, begging to be free, furious at the chain that kept us apart. One day, as I sat on the hill, watching a brief moment I was frightened. But it stopped in time, waiting for Chips and the lady. She reached the other side, but for some unknown reason. Chips had stopped. I saw him staring dreamily at the car. The driver honked impatiently, and I called to Chips. The dog turned his sleek head eagerly, trying to locate me. I will always remember that, and the way the drivers face suddenly con- torted in anger. Because he was impatient, because the day was hot and made him uncom- fortable; because he had other things to do rather than wait, the driver sent his car flying forward and killed Chips. I watched from the hill, as my great black dog, my indestructable guardian, died bloodily and helplessly in my father ' s arms. The man had stopped his car and returned to check his prey. I saw him shrug, and I heard his lies. I watched him offer money to my brother, sending the little boy, crying hysterically, into the house. The man shrugged again, and checked the damage to his car. Then he remembered his appointments and drove off. He never looked at Chips. They buried my dog in his favorite field, where we had played the day ' jf CROSS EXAMINING. A West Lafayette student questions Laura Kountz on her speech debate. C-A-T, CAT. Supervising over the Co-op student Don Guerrero helps him over his spelling lesson. ONCE UPON A TIME . . . Working with a coop student, Sharon Ross writes a story from the dictation of her pupil. Helping stu- dents express their thoughts was a big help to the class. Not all English classes are thick text- books, big tests and sitting in desks all hour! Mr. Joe Fetty, who taught communica- tion, drama and radio TV, used no text- books and literally kept his students on their toes. The communication class took part in impromptu, demonstration and gripe speeches to help learn to express themselves. Later, contests were held and prizes given to the best speakers. Speech team members helped out by doing their thing for the class. The drama class involved pantomimes, puppet shows and plays written by students, then performed on stage. Radio TV courses? Those students were active in creating their own realistic and comical commercials, documentaries, and soap operas. They learned about the use of tape recorders, projectors, and audio-visual equipment. Now, what other classes encourage kids to stand up, perform and do almost any- thing under the sun? Or where else do kids learn to become playrights? Or learn to com- plain in a way which people can understand? Where else? Who said English clcsses are all textbooks, big tests and sitting in desks, anyway? NO I F ' S, AND ' S NOR BUT ' S ... It takes a lot of determination to get your point across to a critical audience, but Scott Smith does his best on his Congress Speech for class. % LONGFELLOW SERENADE.

Taking a rest stop in Wyoming, Shelly Luchene travels to California the hard way, by covered wagon. She stayed 2 weeks. Who says you have to leave school grounds for an entertaining field trip? On November 30, the History department showed “The Red Badge of Courage in the auditorium to the junior class only. It was a success, as many people attended. Everybody thinks language classes are one big bore and that everything is work, work, work. They are kept busy, but they did have time for fun, as they took a trip to Germantown in Chicago. Aside from going to Germantown, they also attended a Ger- man movie. As the busy day continued, so did everybody ' s hunger. This problem was solved by eating in a German restaurant. Many people brought back German baked cookies from a bakery nearby. With Mr. Wright, the glee clubs attended the Lyric Opera of Chicago, on December 5. The buses left the school at 1 1 :00, hoping to get there by 1 :00 and re- turn at 6:00. All in all, the trips were taken to get away from it all. 116 Travel flHHHI I ' M STUMPED!

Kathy Rossman finds big benefits as she draws plans for her dream house. SO THAT ' S THE WAY! A few new sophomores get acquainted with the printing press during the first day of class. Shop classes always seemed to be exciting and different after the regular academic classes. A girl in drafting class? Boys in home eco- nomics? Sure! Breaking away from the tradi- tion of girls doing the cooking and boys building the houses, students learned all kinds of varying skills for the future. Learning experiences and fun were com- bined as home-ec classes held fondue parties, and made taffy apples and the traditional stuffed turkey for Thanksgiving. ZOT , an electric know-it-all created by the elec- tronics classes became an entertaining addi- tion to the shop halls. Several other classes were specifically set up to prepare students for the future. Jour- nalism classes trained talented reporters, ex- pository writing prepared college-bound stu- dents, and music courses served future voice or instrumental majors. STIR AND SERVE.

Mrs. Dodd looks on. 120 Honors BEAMING WITH PRIDE. Leslie Shiel is all smiles as she hears the news of being named the winner of the Daughter Of the Revolution Award. Honoraries are made up of Highland stu- dents who care enough to be good in some- thing (excluding sports). For instance, Thes- pians can ' t be called an academic honor club, but rather a club made up of speech and drama students who have done out- standing work in that field. They constantly strive to earn more points. In a different endeavor. Quill and Scroll is composed of members of the Shield, Tro- janal or News Bureau staff. Being a member of this national honor club is indeed that— strictly honor, since the “club is not meant to be an active one. Several Highland students are members of the German National Honor Society. In the math field, Laura Chihara and Jim Jansen have placed high in contests. Competition for the National Merit Scholarship and the letters of recommenda- tion that go with it is stiff. Roy Fitzwater and Greg Houck were both fortunate enough to be national finalists.

Every day I see hun- dreds of faces, each with a differertt expression. I walk past the history rooms and see a frantic teacher trying to get a point across. I see serious intellects, comical class clowns, wor- ried principals, and easy-going office aids. I ' m really glad that we ' re all not alike. I mean, did you ever see a tree in which all the leaves were exactly alike? I guess it ' s the difference in the leaves that makes the tree something of beauty. I love to just sit on a bench and watch all the different kinds of people go by. I see so many faces that I don ' t recognize.

Mr. James Buck- ley, Assistant Superintendent, came to the Highland system in January, replacing Dr. Grigsby, who moved to Wisconsin. Allen J. Warren, superintendent, agreed to remain another year as head of the High- land system. Dr. Geroge Grigsby, assistant superintendent, resigned to take a position in Wisconsin. Mr. James Buckley, formerly employed in the Whiting school system, filled Dr. Grigsby ' s place. Personnel and curriculum are his main jobs, plus being the school board ' s chief negotiator. The school board welcomed a new mem- ber, Jimmie Cox. He replaced Ralph Petit, whose term expired. Stephen Ranich be- came president and John Guiden stayed on as a board member. Robert Day remained HHS principal, while Robert Kellam and Merlin Clinken- beard were his assistants. INTERESTED. School Board members are behind all major Highland decisions.

The sudden death of Mr. Tracy Turner in November was a shock to both students and school staff. Mr. Robert Kaufman, draft- ing teacher in the junior high, also met his death during the first semester. New teachers hired after the start of school filled vacancies which occurred. Mrs. Ann Powell joined the English staff, while Mrs. Barbara Dalton replaced Mrs. Damasius in Home Ec. Mrs. Mary Lou Underwood took over the position left vacant in the Bus- iness Department by Mrs. Labus. Industrial Arts teachers saw the biggest turnover. Mr. Dave Owen began teaching drafting and MST, plus Advanced Power. Mr. Bill Bowers taught drafting, and Mr. Bill Townsend took over classes in woods and advanced metals. ISCS welcomed a new teacher, Mr. Dan Luncsford. With so many new staff members, school did not have any rough spots. A smoothly run school year was what most teachers clas- sified 1974-1975.

Every day they were greeted by the smiling faces of the cooks under the direction of Jo Hall. Along with 13 other experienced cooks and assistant Dottie Smith, Jo planned and cooked for a family of over 2000 people. That ' s a pretty big order! The cooks aren ' t the only ones that work behind the scenes at Highland High School. Under head custodian Ray Walker, a staff of janitors worked throughout the summer months painting, scrubbing, and preparing for a new school year. During the year, they were always on hand at play performances, games, and after- school activities as well as during school hours. Many students came to know and recognize the custodians as major student boosters. They were always there to con- gratulate after a successful meet, or clean up after a dance.

Popular history teacher, Mr. Michael Sunny, mixes with students during Homecoming festivities. His interesting class dis- cussions and storytelling make him a favorite among students. SUNSHINE CHILD. Chosen as the 1975 Easter Seals child, Jill Day poses with a favorite char- acter, Mickey Mouse. She is the daughter of our principal, Mr. Robert Day. Wow! Look at that neat guy in the faded jeans. Does he come to the games often? Are you talkin ' about that guy with the mustache? He ' s my econ teacher! He ' s a teacher? Sure. You don ' t think they sit at home and grade papers all their lives do you? I remember when I was in grade school, I always used to think that teachers did nothing but give tests, hand out unfortunate report cards, and lecture, lecture, lecture. Was I wrong! All throughout Highland High, I see teachers doing lots of interesting things that don ' t even touch upon lec- turing or report cards. Walking down the hall after school, I see several coaches that taught me in the classroom a few hours be- fore. I see many sponsors at club meetings settling arguments, and many staying after school just to rap with their students. Teaching, counseling, leading, setting an example— all these things are a part of every teacher ' s job. According to a lot of teachers, there are even more qualities that make up a good teacher. One math teacher. Miss San- dra Leeney, feels that a teacher should use patience, reserve judgement, and keep an open mind. What is the best part of teaching at High- land? Most teachers felt that the satisfaction they got from teaching was well worth all the problems and bad days. One teacher commented that the best part of teaching is having kids that are inquisitive and enjoy learning. BEHIND-THE-SCENE BOOSTER. As cheerleading sponsor. Miss Stephanie Fruth helped to promote school spirit in every sport. oi mm ESS IIL EAPE1S Like any other job, teaching has its share of daily frustrations. Mr. Michael Sunny, history teacher, feels that the most frus- trating part is the inability to motivate certain students. Mrs. Marilyn Capperino, chemistry teacher, thinks that communicating infor- mation and trying to get kids interested in the subject is the most frustrating part. What is the general attitude of the stu- dents today? Mrs. Capperino states that kids are too apathetic for the most part. I ' d like to see a more ' care and concern ' at- mosphere instead of the ' me ' centered one that exists now. Other teachers agree that the students of today aren ' t as involved as those of yester- day. It used to be that you could get a whole school involved in a pep rally, says Miss Leeney. Now everybody ' s different. Mrs. Capperino feels that involvement is lessened because students stay just with their friends. There were more activities and dances a few years ago. Maybe we don ' t provide channels for them to get involved, states English teacher, Miss Janna Clark. For instance. Highland has no statewide service club like the Sunshine Society that Crown Point of- fers to high school girls. I ' m all for clubs. They give the kids self-confidence, individu- ality, and a direction to go. Many teacher felt that student involve- ment is present, but merely channeled towards different directions, jobs for ex- ample. Kids would rather get a job than try out for a team, stated one coach. Has the economic lure of the job world effected student involvement? Most teachers felt the answer was a definite yes. Mr. Sunny sums up their thoughts by saying, If they need the money for college. okay. Otherwise, once they get out of high school, they will work the rest of their lives. They miss too much of school life by work- • _ n ing. Other teachers think that jobs are good if the student organizes his time and can handle it without gettin g frustrated. Teachers also felt that students should only request early graduation if there is a good reason for doing so. Not if it limits the student from having a good time in high school, says Miss Clark. English teacher Mrs. Mary Suttinger feels that there is nothing wrong with early grad- uation. It gives them a head start. What do teachers feel about the present grading system? I don ' t want to create a barrier between myself and the students be- cause of grades, says Miss Clark. Grades give students a measure of how they ' re doing, she continued. I would like to have parent conferences. Other teachers stated that the system is fine the way it is. Instead of lowering any standards, we should make them a little stiffer, commented one teacher. She went on to say that she disagreed with the pass- fail system. One of the places that a teacher can really let his hair down is in the teacher ' s lounge. Here, although frustrations are talked about and steam is let off, the major part of most discussions center on positive things-happy moments in the classroom, victory meetings in the locker rooms, suc- cessful early-morning meetings. One involved teacher sums up a basic teacher attitude by saying, How do you make kids realize that they will never find people as patient and as desirous for the students ' success as the high school teachers now. College is a whole different game ... ONE OF THE GANG. Speech Arts sponsor, Mr. Joe Fetty, spends a Saturday afternoon supervising the club ' s annual car wash. The dedicated coach also rose early on Saturdays to drive his team to successful meets. CHECKIN ' THE SCORE. Mr. Leroy Cable spends a spare moment watching the basketball team. Most of the time he worked in the concession as Lettermen sponsor. A -t . WHY ME?

School sometimes seems to be a disliked place, yet it prepares teenagers for a world totally different from their own. Friends and some sort of an education is what Cathy Molnar got out of her four years in high school. Lynn Sobolewski viewed high school as an experience with people and learning. Be- fore the system was changed, freshmen at- tended their classes in the junior high. Think- ing back on it, Lynn commented, It was like being a high school age student with the maturity of a junior high student. As others remember reaching the high school as sopho- mores, We were supposedly more mature and knew what was happening. Gary Krick felt he learned a lot about himself as well as teachers and fellow stu- dents. He recalls 9th grade in the junior high as, everything but high school. Learning and growing up have to be im- portant parts of anybody ' s life and they are an important aspect of high school. You have to start somewhere, and where is a good place to begin? It seems that Highland High is a good place. Seniors 135 KEN BONNER. HOLLY BOORD — GAA 4; Marching Band 2-3; Concert Band 1-2; Symphonic Band 3.

T) Weeks of indecision on a homecoming float topic retained the immediate start of the senior float. Once Smoke on the Water was chosen as the theme, many plans began to visualize in the minds of class officers. Float sessions alternated between officers ' and class leaders ' homes where the actual flower-fluffing and frame building was ac- complished. All was not fun and games, though. Poor attendance plagued the meetings for a few weeks. In the end, a lot of dedication came through with flying colors. Much to the dis- may of senior class members, their Smoke on the Water had to settle for second place. Illinois Bell was the scene of the last min- ute preparations. Finally, the float was driven to Plaza Lanes for the parade and judging. LEWIS CLARK-Beginning Cho- rus 2; Choir 3-4. SHE LLY L. CLARK-Choir 2; FHA 3-4.

She was one of the many seniors participating in the English mini-course sys- tem. Spirit. Who has it? Who shows it? At football games, basketball games, and sports events throughout the year, students have been yelling and shouting for a victory. Booster Block is made up of those who want to let go of their spirit continually for their school. As Jeff Bodnar put it, Spirit is sticking up for your school. Many feel that school spirit has been lost somehow in the minds of students. Whether it ' s the individuals or the school as a whole, something is gone, some feel. Patty Hranchak feels that younger classes have more spirit than hers ever did. Debbie Garty says, A lot of kids have it but are afraid to show it.

Among the favorites are Elton John, Chicago, John Denver, Led Zepplin and Deep Purple. Concerts add a big attraction with each performer having their own style. Renee Van Gorp liked John Denver because, He sings about nature and life instead of the same, old, stale stuff. Rod Botilla favored Uriah Heap, Deep Purple and Grand Funk for their heavy music. Special effects being an important part of concerts, Dan Drake says, I think Emerson, Lake and Palmer have the best concert. They have a flying piano and pictures that flash in the background. The song may be Stairway to Heaven, the group Chicago and the artist John Den- ver, but it ' s all our kind of music. CHRIS HUFFMAN— FHA 2; GAA 2. TERRI HUFFMAN — FHA 2; FTA 2.

From senior class president, Sandi Pa- rades, to homecoming king, Dan Mroczkow- ski, each shows that a few can possess the ability to influence many. The number of seniors who represent their class spans many different areas. Patty Hranchak showed her talents twice as head drum major and FHA president. Other names include those of student council president, Linda Milligan, or Jay Wortman, the only senior on the basketball team. Bob Johnson lengthens the list as first semester Trojanal editor. Kim MacCartney contributes her journalism skills as New Bureau chief second semester. Deb Minard is SAE president and Renee VanGorp is at the head of GAA. 142 Seniors JAMES KENDRICK.

Kurt Masepohl knew how to enjoy life. At a very young age, he had found what some people never realize— that what you put into something is what you get out of it. And Kurt put his whole heart into living life to its fullest. He also challenged anyone with whom he associated to get involved. To others, Kurt gave the greatest gift he had— himself. His ability to love, his help- fulness, his talent in many different fields, his delightful sense of humor and his over-all involvement in life were qualities Kurt owned and fully administered. He always had time to care for people and never turned a deaf ear when someone had a problem. Kurt ' s life may have been a short one, but its quality was rich in every way. Kurt knew what he wanted out of life. He realized what the important things were and he shared them wholeheartedly with those around him. This is something that is rarely found these days, but in Kurt is showed beautifully. Realizing what a fine young man Kurt was, we are happy he shared his life with us. Those of us who were acquainted with him consider ourselves thankful and lucky to have been a part of his fruitful life. Although Kurt may be gone, he will never be forgotten.

Why is it that the school has a larger number of freshmen, sophomores or juniors in school than it has seniors at any one time? Easy come and easy go rules might be the best explanation for the sparse scattering of senior students at times. Those rules don ' t let seniors leave anytime they please, only when they are registered for it, rather than a class. Easy come, or late arrival, allows them to start their school day an hour late. Early release, or easy go, lets seniors leave the building after a few classes. Why do seniors take advantage of this privilege? Maybe it ' s because they want to sleep later in the morning. Or, for others, it ' s for the sake of earning money after school. Some kids simply want to graduate and get married, so they don ' t want any extra knowledge. Juniors, sophomores, and freshmen alike look with envy on these seniors that get to come late or leave early. Why do THEY get to have this privilege? Because they ' re the Head Honchos, of course!

GREG PAVNICA. 148 Seniors Just what comes after graduation? The excitement of the commencement exercises is over. The graduation parties are over. The senior class is spread out over a wide scope of the world now, rather than being as one under the roof of Highland High School. Hot summer months are spent generally the same by all. Perhaps each individual can be thought of as doing something different than the rest of the ' 75 graduates, but most are working daily at a summer job. Then, September arrives. The class sep- arates even more. Many kids become stu- dents again, but at a college rather than high school. Along with this change of education- al level, even the college students are divided. Everything spells out New Beginnings. DAVID PAYO— Intramurals 2-3; Lettermen Club 2-4; Football 2-4; Captain; Wrestling 2-4. VICKI PELOT. MARK PERES-French Club 3-4. DAVE PETERSEN.

Class activities and fund raising projects became fewer, as there was no longer a prom to worry about financing. President, Sandi Parades; vice president, Kim MacCartney; secretary, Carol Gilbert; and treasurer, Leslie Rak still had a few worries with the activities of the senior class, though.

Colorful rallies, tense elections, and gala campaigns were all part of a one week stay at Indiana State for six Highland students. Chosen by the teachers at the end of their junior year, Ruth Ellen Barney, Cathy Mol- nar, and Leslie Shiel represented Highland at Girls ' State. Mark Herak, Scott Smith, and Kurt Masepohl also traveled the Indiana State as Boys ' State delegates. Both work- shops took place in early June of 1974. During their stay, delegates learned about their government by actually existing as a separate state. Each participant had to run for an office, and carry out that office once elected. Not everything was totally serious, how- ever. A talent show, the meeting of many new friends, parties, and guest speakers were also part of a fun-filled week at Girls ' and Boys ' State!

Seniors 155 Julie Abatie, Rich Achor, Cathy Addlesburger, Davie Ahl- born Desla Alexander, Jim Allgire The Sting provided the basis of the junior homecoming float. It featured a big, yellow bee stinging a Pirate football player, plus a scoreboard and goalposts. Kathy Kepperling was chairman, and many nights she and a few other people tried to finish flowers for the skirt. Apathy and not knowing about float sessions seemed to be the thing that stood between the float and a first or second place rank. Finally, on the last few nights, more juniors put in their efforts to complete the float in time for the parade.

President Paul Furman added to much of the pride by constantly getting involved. He got people interested in the garbage can campaign and did much of it himself. As a result of this, the class was awarded $25. Vice-president Fran Weinstein helped in many ways, also. She helped get the car wash off to a rolling start. Despite unexpected rain, many people showed up to help out. Treasurer Pam Cul- lins and secretary Alice Wardrope were also on hand to see that all things went well.

Junior powder-puffers beam with joy, as a dream to beat the seniors becomes a reality. They won the game, 22-6. Most seniors remember their junior year as a busy and fun-filled year. For this year ' s juniors, it was no different; 1974-75 proved to be a whirlwind of activity. Homecoming festivities and a car wash started off the year for the Class of ' 76. Bake sales and other money-making activities were held in order to save for the biggest junior event of the year— the junior prom. Com- mittees for decoration, refreshments, and tickets were chosen early to make this year ' s prom the best year ever. Unfortunately, all the junior activities were not considered to be fun. On Fri- day, many juniors hit the sack early in order to be ready for the PSAT exam held the next day. The SAT exam was also held in April for college bound juniors and seniors. U.S. History was another juniors-only event. Just think. Juniors, only one more year to go !

I ' ve seen that movie twice already, complained a bored sophomore. Isn ' t there anything else going on tonight? Sure there is, smiled a confident junior. I ' m going to a party! Empty Saturday nights were not a common problem with the Junior Class. Every Monday morning other students could expect to hear about all the junior parties held that weekend. For the juniors, parties seemed to be the best possible way, and certainly the most ex- citing and fun way to get together over the weekend. After special occasions such as Homecoming or a big game, some party was bound to start up. Dances were also heavily attended by the Class of ' 76. For many of the juniors, espe- cially th e boys, Turnabout and Prom were first -time occasions to be remembered.

Even toes got into high fashion this year with toe stockings, the latest rage in footwear. What will it be next year? Fashion was at its height this year with not only the junior class, but the school as a whole. No longer were blue jeans worn day after day; students seemed to like dressing up for a change. Knee-length skirts with print blouses and short sweaters were popular among the girls. Dress pants with sweaters or shorty jackets were worn by teachers as well as students. Even long skirts and dresses could be seen in the halls. Along with the regular levis and flannel shirts, guys wore cuffed dress pants with coordinated sweaters. Wild print shirts and bow ties were seen at special occasions. Several popular fashions were worn by both the guys and gals. Platform shoes went with just about any outfit. Overalls were worn everywhere— school, games, and dances. Hooded sweatshirts and football jerseys were good toppers for jeans. Walking down the hall, any style could be seen, and every style was accepted. No long- er did you have to dress to please the crowd —you just had to be yourself!

Work was well underway by the begin- ning of school, and the song The Locomo- tion was chosen as the theme. Meetings were held at various homes, but always returned to the home of president Jon Janott. Tom Hepburn and Dave Tumbas, float chairmen, concentrated on the con- struction of the float. The train was sta- tioned at Dave Tumbas ' s garage, as he and a few others built it from scratch. Things ran smoothly ' til Homecoming eve. Trouble erupted when the trailer and truck were late, and proved to be ten feet too long once they got to the warehouse. But the coolheaded sophomores adapted, and The Locomotion went on to capture first place in the class float competition. 166 Sophomores Cliff Burch, Randy Burch, Don Burger, Dan Burgess Dan Burgess, Debbie Burgess, Mary Burgess, Joann Bush Ellen Butler, Beth Cable, Pam Cadman, Debbie Camp Cheryl Campbell, Richard Carroll, Vicki Cartwright, John Casassa Becky Cash, Dawn Ceiga, Dom- enic Certa, Sandra Chapman Tammy Cheney, Ron Chaibia, Linda Chihara, Carol Childers Nancy Dobrinich, Laura Dooley, Marty Doris, Patty Duley, Tania Dumanian Dennis Dunn, Rita Duran, Robin Dust, John Ekamp, Bruce Ellis THE WINNER.

Under the direction of Kim MacCartney, volunteers from the Class of 77 helped sell rosters at football and basketball games. With the graduation of many seniors from last year ' s Trojanal, the majority of the new staff was comprised of sophomores. Dave Needles and Delora Kirkland directed the inside spread of the paper, and Jeff Troxel and Tom Schmidt handled the sports page.

Several of the varsity team managers consisted of enthusiastic sophomores ready to help in any way. Two of these managers included Randy Forsythe and John Katlaski who helped out with the football team. Sports wasn ' t the only area which em- ployed behind-the-scene sophomores. During drama productions, sophomore Alec Black could be seen doing all of the lighting. Karen Stofcik and Paulette Kaptur were also in back of the curtains as well as on stage. Just name any event and you can bet there ' s a sophomore backing it up! Sophomores 169 In every high school there is usually one class that is known for their outstanding enthusiasm and spirit. They appear at every school event bringing with them a certain zest that can ' t help but to be contagious. At Highland High School, this group happens to be the sophomore class. Winning the spirit award at the beginning of the year was only one proof of the well known sophomore spirit. The most success- ful car wash ever held at Highland was also sponsored by the class of 77. Held in the summer the car wash brought in $280. Over 100 kids were showing up for the sophomore float sessions during the week of Homecoming. The results were obvious— the sophs took first place in the float competi- tion with their Locomotion. Sponsored by Mrs. Capperino, the sopho- mores were also in charge of the annual sweatshirt sale and All-Sports Dance. Bake Sales and a Candy Cane Sale (a first for High- land), were a few of several money-making projects. One thing is certain— Highland need never be called apathetic with a group like the sophomores around.

However, the sophomores had nothing to worry about with Jon Janott as their leader. A star tennis player and avid student council member, Janott proved to be a good organizer and spirit promoter during the year. Assisting Janott, was vice-president Betsy Orlich, secretary Barb Gargano, and Trea- surer Barb Nackman. All four officers shared the responsibility of sponsoring every class event. Working closely with the officers were classmates, Tom Hepburn and Dave Tumbas. 172 Sophomores Yvonne Rokita, Dawn Ross, Pam Rybarczyk, Jeff Ryfa Rich Sajek, Edith Sampson, Dan- iel Sapp, Scott Sarti Edward Saxsma, Marlene Scheer- inga, Donald Scherer, Thomas Schiller Tom Schmidt, Michael Schold, Rosemary Scholl, Bill Scott Grace Schwerin, Therese Seketa, Joanne Senetar, Bob Sharpe Paula Shidler, Larry Shiel, Sherry Shoup, Wendy Sieb Curt Sjoquist, Susan Skrentny, Brian Sleeman, Charles Sleeper, Sandy Smiley, Becky Smith, Joseph Smith, Mary Kay Smith Tracy Smith, Rhonda Sowash, Cindy Spence, Kenneth Spolarich, Lisa Stan, Kathy Stanley, Beth Stark, Kathy States Mark Stefanich, Ray Sternberg, Barb Stevenson, Dan Stevenson, Tom Stewart, Steven Stimac, Teri Stockham, Cary Stirling Karen Stofcik, Bill Stone, Marie Stutts, Mike Susko Carl Swanson, Roberta Swentko, Dave Switzer, Debbie Switzer COMPLETELY CAPTIVATED.

Beth Stark and Janet Moore were the two sophomores chosen out of twenty-five spirited girls that tried out. This summer Janet Moore placed fourth in individual awards at the USCA cheerleading camp. Another highlight in the sophs achieve- ments was that two sophomores made var- sity basketball. Jon Zatulak and Bruce Van- zo had their names on the roster this year. Sophomore volleyball players this year went as follows: Maryrita Nichols, Kathy Kawitter, Karen Phillips, Linda Picshner, Barb Wolak, Lola Brysz, and Pam Cadmen. Sophomores have made many contribu- tions to both varsity and JV teams in most sports which Highland sponsors. Coaches agree Highland ' s athletic program would be in sad shape without sophomore effort. RIGHT ON.

This mysterious group of people could be very easily recognized; those lost looks, questioning faces, and nervous tremors just could not be disguised— if you were a fresh- man everyone knew it! Of course, as time went on, the freshman became just like any other group of stu- dents. They elected their officers, and planned their own events. Their Homecom- ing float, Takin ' Care of Business was the first of their group projects. Several of them got involved in the freshman athletic teams. They joined the freshman choruses, or took part on the drama productions and speech team. The major dances were off-limits to most freshman, but other activities such as games proved to be exciting. There was certainly no reason for a freshman to be bored— some- thing new and different was always pop- ping up! LISTEN TO ME!

Takin ' Care of Business was the theme of the freshman float for homecoming. It featured a towering Highland quarterback stomping all over a crushed Merrillville Pirate. The float was assembled at president Scott Sutton ' s house with the help of more than 40 spirited freshmen. Helping to keep things in order were the class officers: Scott Sutton, president; Diana Fauth; vice president; Mary Cebra, secre- tary, and Sharon Popa, treasurer. They ' re doing a great job!

The office of president is a most difficult job. Scott Sutton was chosen to be the leader of planning activities. Scott is a mem- ber of the Marching Trojans and concert band, playing the tuba. He also enjoys photography. The vice president ' s position is difficult because she takes over when the president is absent and helps to plan activities. Chosen for this is Diana Fauth, who participates in GAA and enjoys basketball. The position of secretary is held by Mary Cebra. This job requires an ability to listen attentively, as she needs to write the minutes of each meeting. She also participates in GAA. Sharon Popa holds the office of treasurer. The treasurer should be good in math, as she handles the money. Sharon has fulfilled this task. She is in glee club and is involved in after school singing ensembles.

Going to all bas- ketball and football games, cheering on the Frosh players, trying to build up everyone ' s morality even if they do lose, cheerleaders have much to be commended about. In the beginning of the school year, a group of 45 spirited girls tried out for cheer- leading, out of which two groups of five were chosen. Captain Kelly Smith, Sharon Mravca, Shelly Repking, Beth Viellieu, and Sue Lebryk, are the members of the first squad. The second squad consists of Captain Diane Prieboy, Karen Paluga, Jean Thon, Rose O ' Day and Nancy Williams. Practice is what makes a good cheer- leader. The girls practice at least three times a week making up their own cheers. Miss Fruth is the freshman cheerleader sponsor this year. HERE WE GO.

How can you do your homework without WLS or Super CFL on? Or your favorite album or tape playing? It ' s almost impossible! Elton John seems to be the most popular among this year ' s freshmen. It was unani- mously voted that he gives the best rock con- certs. His songs, Good-bye Yellow Brick Road, and Saturday Night ' s Alright for Fightin ' , are the most popular amongst the freshmen. Alice Cooper and Chicago are also among the top, giving the best concerts. It was a very hard decision to name the greatest group there ever was. It was unusual- ly close between Elton John and the Beatles. The Beatles won though, by a very small margin. Country music isn ' t very popular among freshmen students. Most would rather lis- ten to hard jam as Tim Armstrong puts it. They would rather sit down and listen to a good Cat Stevens record. A lot of people agreed when Mark Svetic said, There ' s too much twine and sorrow in country music.

Homecoming is just one of the many ways that the community touches a student ' s life. Adult booster members are always helping out at games and band events. Service clubs such as Kiwanis and Womens ' Auxiliary spon- sor us to workshops and seminars. Places like Burger King and John ' s Pizzeria provide us with a place to go after games.

Laughter, sadness, disap- pointment, happiness . . . they all play such a big part of our high school years. Tears of surprise flow down Kim Blanton ' s face as she is announced as Homecoming queen. Jordon Vukas expresses smil- ing approval during Homecoming festivities. Well, it ' s all over now.
