Celebrating Twenty-Five Time to Celebrate the Silver of twenty-five years, and time to celebrate not only an anniversary of time gone by, but of a spirit which has endured and grown. Where Highland High School and its graduates have been is history; Where Highland and its people are going remains an act of hope in the future, and the continuing of daring a dream for even better things still to come. Yet, it is Time to celebrate and renew a spirit Which can take Highland High and each individual in it to the joy of celebrating life fulfilled! 1974 1976 1982 19 ' Patty Hearst Olympics 77 Elvis Died 19 , ‘Rocky ,, Best Picture 78 Jonestown Massac re 19: John Wayne Gary Indicted Jane M.

Reminiscing on the past twenty-five years It’s Highland’s Silver Sensation 84 — The year to dream; a Silver Celebration. Celebrate The Silver! Fireworks over the Highland sky and balloons at the prom for Karen Charbonneau say the same thing — Hiahland Hiah is 25 vears old! co Gre n of Silver As Highland celebrates its twentieth year, there is time to look back over many accomplishments and see the changes and progress which has been made. It is good, too, to remember that there have been times of great celebration and sharing — with floats, victories, and academic awards. It is also good to remember the quiet growth which has happened in Highland, the simple growing into adulthood of thousands of young people who have left these halls better people, and more comfortable with the themselves and the world around them. Celebrating the Silver does co have many sides. Musical Annie shoots for success! One of Highland’s most success¬ ful musicals in recent years was pre¬ sented to enthusiastic audiences when “Annie Get Your Gun” hit the high school stage. Directed by Miss Pamela Guenszler and Mr. Gregg Ladd, Ir¬ ving Berlin’s famous story of the wild west came to life in Highland. In order to allow more students to participate, lead roles were shared by two students each through the nights of the production. Kristen Callaway and Anja Deering played Annie Oakley. Frank Butler, the ar¬ rogant sharp-shooter, was played by Frank Ball. Other leading roles were played by Danielle Boyle and Carol Mills as Dolly Tate. Chris Williams and Mike O’Donnell as Buffalo Bill. This production was Highland’s first all-school musical. An effort by both staff and students opened the casting to more students than in pre¬ vious years, and the play was a suc¬ cess. Reflecting on her role as Annie, Kristen Callaway says, “I’ll never forget how great I felt when I heard that applause! It was a lot of hard work and I enjoyed every moment of it. Through the support of family and friends, the whole cast made this musical really shine!” The musical, which has proved a top audience-leaser for years, also took on several Highland twists as the p roduction was staged. Many students had a chance to perform for their friends and the people of Highland, and by the time the cast party was held on the last evening of the presentation, all agreed this had been one of Highland’s finest musi¬ cal and stage accomplishments. Annie Used Her Gun! Kristen Callaway and Anja Deering starred in the role of Annie while supported by others spring musical stars Dan Ball, Mike O’Donnell, Chris Wil¬ liams, Angie Renfroe, Carolee Kepler, and Jay Svitko. Friday at Highland means football. The weekend may be coming and other things may have hap¬ pened, but Friday above all in those cool autumn months always means football at HHS! While other athletes work just as hard and come away with as many or more victories, it is still the spirit of the Blue and Gold which seems to find part of its identity in the whole atmosphere of a football game. The new field, the cheering fans, watching the time left on the score board, and feeling some¬ thing special when Highland wins. Someone that makes all of us win, too! The faces of Highland are many, but the determi¬ nation, concern, and hope for triumph in the looks of these players does seem to say it all! Green Friday means football Green 1 ' f i- V V ' Homecoming 25th Hall decorating, working on floats, decorating lockers, and preparing for the game are just a few of the activities that slowly work up to Homecoming evening. There are many memories that last a lifetime, and Homecoming always seems to rank high on that list. September 23rd, 1983 is a date many won’t soon forget. Especially for the 1983 Homecoming Queen Carolyn Horwath and King Tim Sowinski. The class of ’84 reigned once again with their third 1st. place float. The Homecoming dance was a great success and afterwards many couples enjoyed dinner at their fa¬ vorite restaurant. Homecoming is always a great time for all to show school spirit. From grass skirts to crutches, the spirit was apparent in the halls dur¬ ing Spirit Week. Even though the Trojans lost to the Lake Central Indi¬ ans, 20-17, the evening was enjoyed by all.

Homecoming 13 Loving Yourself At Your Own Risk People eat for many reasons. More often than not, however they eat not because they’re hungry, but out of pure appetite. There is a big difference between hunger and appetitie. Appetite is a psychological state. One sees food, so they desire it. For instance, say a person is walking past a bakery and they smell the aroma of brownies and cookies. They may have just finished eating a big dinner, but the smell triggered their appetite. This made them go in, and buy that cook¬ ie that they really weren’t hungry for. Hunger on the other hand is a physical state. The stomach has small contractions. This may make one have an over all weak feeling. Many times, people eat out of de¬ pression. Whether it be a bad grade on a chemistry test, or finding out that a boyfriend girlfriend has been cheating on the other. These are but a few reasons to let food subside sadness. On the other hand, food is used as a means of reward. Ever since child¬ hood, we’ve been taught to do good and we’d be rewarded. When we did well on a test we were granted a piece of candy. When the best team in the conference wins state, or one achieves an important goal, it is usu- Can’t Stop Eating It! There aren’t many teens who can leave a Big Mac in a state like this. Calories or chaos, food still is part of most teenagers ' social lives. ally celebrated with a night on the town. No celebration is complete with out food. Also food has a calming affect. When ever we are put up against something difficult, we reach for food. Food seems to pacify our fears. It gives us a feeling of peace and confidence. Many of us are not satisfied with our bodies. Almost everyone would like to change something about his her bodies. We either complain about being over weight, or under weight, too tall or too short. We get so annoyed with ourselves that we just give up and over indulge our¬ selves in food. Instead of helping the situation we make it worse. Maybe if we thought of food as a source of nourishment, and not as a means of solving our problems, we’d all be healthier and much bet¬ ter off.

Teens ae learning there are right rays and wrong ways about ap- roaching physical training. Stretch- lg before working out is very impor- ant. Torn and pulled muscles are a ery common form of injury with ctive people. These injuries may Stayin ’ FIT! sometimes be prevented by the time spent stretching before a workout. A good example is running. Run¬ ners find it extremely important to fully stretch their calf and hamstring muscles before and after running. Preparation is also needed for ra- quetball. This sport uses a variety of movement of the arm muscles which if not stretched properly, can result in soreness, pain, or injury. In todays workout, weight train¬ ing has become a very important part of attaining total fitness. In the past, weight training has been a pre¬ dominately male activity. Recently women have discovered that weight training can be equally as important and effective for them in achieving total fitness. A lot of women object to weight training because they fear that they will become muscular, which ma ny women find revolting. This is a com¬ mon myth that many women have about weight training. Many women also exclude weight training from their fitness programs because of their lack of knowledge about weight training and its benefits. These include strengthening weak and unused muscles, toning and tightening the muscular structure, and for some, a highly powerful mental release. (cont. on page 18) Action!

FLASHDANCE ... STAYIN’ ALIVE (cont. from page 17) Forms of exercise in the health clubs range from fast-paced games of racquetball to a grueling forty-five minutes of body trimming and ton¬ ing exercises known as slimnastics. Aerobics is also a very popular form of exercise with both men and women. Jogging, fast walking, and swimming or any other activity that promotes the heart and lungs to function at a higher rate for fifteen minutes or more is considered an essential part of any total physical fitness program. Teens also find health clubs bene¬ ficial in other ways. First, many are equipt with thousands of dollars of training equipment which most peo¬ ple could never afford on their own. Also, they offer instructers who pri- ( vide healthy and safe programs for members Clubs also offer special facilities such as sau¬ nas whirlpools, indoor tracks, and swimmffig pools.

Many feel a well-balanced fit¬ ness program increases the ability to cope with and handle stress in daily life. Teens are also finding clubs an excellent place to meet friends with the same interests as theirs.

Family. That word can provoke smiles, sighs, and frowns. Every home is not perfect, and teens are the first to admit it. Family roles are changing, and kids of all ages are beginning to share the responsibility of a daily work load. For some, it may mean a job for extra cash: for others, it means picking up where another left off. Every home is different, true, but still more teens are being intro¬ duced to the adult world of work, at an earlier age. With more parents working, jobs that were their responsibility now fall to the next capable person - the teen. This means it is up to him to fix dinner, put Junior to bed, pick up the mess, and still do four hours of homework before he goes to bed. For some it gets to be a little much. In a situation like this, patience can wear a little thin on everyone. Money is also a major issue in today’s home. Everyone wants it, but not everyone has it. Many par¬ ents think of Friday night dates as a waste of hard earned cash. Teens look at it as $3 well spent with friends. In this case, many de¬ cide to find a job to supply the extra dollars. One girl said that after she found a job, her parents wanted her to save everything she earned, and not go out at all. What was the point of finding work to begin with? An¬ other said her parents didn’t want her to work, yet a fight breaks out everytime she asks for some money. In today’s working family, the pressure is on everyone. One thing we must all remember though, our family is built on a firm foundation of love, trust and caring. Nothing is impossible. Shannon Steffey Balancing Act. After reading the messages left on the communication center of todays family, Shannon Steffey tries to be cook, babysitter, stu¬ dent and still a teen while her brother Austin “helps’. Family 21 w Brothers, Sisters Potential Adult Friends It doesn’t matter if they’re older or younger; brothers and sisters can ac¬ tually be fun to have around. There are some exceptions as always, but usually they are all right. Younger kids in the family are great to have. They try so hard to act like their big sister, or brother. They’ll put on make-up and dress in clothes that are ten sizes too big, and walk around the house talking about dates or the big football game the night before. To some, however, it isn’t cute at all. Especially if they ruined the clothes that were tomor¬ row’s outfit. Just remember, if the little guys didn’t love you, they wouldn’t try so hard to be like you. Trying to live with older brothers or sisters in the house is just as hard. Here are these people who are two or three years older, and they do know more, but they rub it in! They say that isn’t right or this is wrong but still they don’t seem to care. Older kids rarely say things like good job or nice work. They seem to take for granted that the younger teen needs to hear that. Feelings are “Brothers and sisters can become our best friends. ” often hurt because something one person worked so hard on is shot down in seconds. As time goes on, the older one begins to see stages of himself in the younger brother or sister. As the younger teen gets older, many kids stop trying to copy the identity of the older one, and begin to realize their own acceptance of themselves. When they stop turning to the older teen for advice and help, they notice that the attention span has disappeared and wonder why. Now they follow the younger one and watch to see what happens. After a few days or even weeks, the older teen realizes what has finally occurred, the younger one has grown up. They can actually relate on the same level. Brothers and sisters can become our best friends with some time and honest talking. Love between two family members can really be spe¬ cial, especially if they are brothers and sisters. Shannon Steffey Lots of Love. Support from family members goes a long way, as Kristin Callaway found out as ‘ Annie”. 22 Green Ties You hold the string of my kite, of my life. You glide me expertly past trees and over electric lines: obstacles you say can kill. It is for the best we both believe — for now ... But the wind comes and brings me higher; further; more distant each time. Then it recedes, and I fall back to you — never fully in ruins, but sometimes slightly shattered in body or soul. I am then patched with wisdom; yours and mine combined. I go out once again with the wind at my back; harder, longer, and stronger still. The string snaps, but I come back, for parts of you I cannot destroy . . . the invisible thread. Theresa Kenders Family Ties. Keith Hudson at four knows already how important family love can be as he holds his little sister, Rachel. It Means A Lot! Kristen Callaway found en¬ couragement for her role in “Annie Get Your Gun” from members of her family. Family SUM! - 6tMC II In 1958, Highland High School opened its doors to students. Before that time, most Highland students attended our neighboring school, Griffith. The school then consisted of grades eight through twelve. Allen J. Warren was Highland’s first Principal and Robert Day was the Assistant Principal. Mr. Lon P. Monbeck, who still resides in High¬ land, was the first superintendent. Each contributed much to the High¬ land School System. Assistant principals, Merlin Clin- kenbeard and Robert Kellam, were teaching business, physical educa¬ tion, and English just three years after the opening of the school. Mr. Kellam was a sponsor for the Class of ’62 and the National Honor Soci¬ ety. Mr. Clinkenbeard’s duties as an athletic coach included: coaching Freshman basketball, baseball, and cross country. There were few extracurricular activities, but sports were very pop¬ ular among Highland students. Foot¬ ball has reigned as an exciting sport for both players and spectators. At the first Homecoming, the fe¬ male spectators arrived in long, full skirts, bobby socks, and saddle- shoes to complete the evening’s at¬ tire. Styles have changed over the years, but the spirit of Homecoming will always remain the same. The Trojans were triumphant in their first Homecoming game by defeat¬ ing Park Forest. Royal Treatment. Highland s first Home¬ coming Queen, Karen Sell, gets the royal treatment from two of Highland ' s football players. 24 Silver Time Even back then, there were dances after a victorious game. For example, the first Homecoming game was Highland’s conquest. That night, Karen Sells was crowned as Highland’s first Homecoming queen. After a twelve year time span, the first Highland Homecoming couple, Lee Anne Mercer and Dave Devich, were crowned as Queen and King. Ever since then, Highland has kept up the tradition of honoring two stu- Green dents who are worthy of this hon J As the years swept by, names and faces changed. In the process� constructing new additions, a fire die stroyed the English wing. Gradually, a new wing was built and other addi¬ tions were constructed. Through the years, Highland High has been irrv proving educationally as well as physically and will continue to ex¬ pand. Shawna Deresch Kathy Funston Lon P. Monbeck was Highland s first Superinten dent of schools. He contributed much to the school system. Monbeck begins Pursuit of Excellence Lon P. Monbeck s name appears on Highland’s audito¬ rium, but his spirit still remains throughout much of Highland’s total educational program and spirit. As the first superintendent of the school system, he set the motto “Pursuit of Excellence”, and through the years which have followed, administrators and teachers have worked to keep that goal alive. Mr. Monbeck was a superintendent with sound judge¬ ment. Students found his decisions fair. He attended almost all school activities, whether it be drama or athele- tics. Students realized this and appreciated his attitude. Mr. Allen J. Warren was principal of Highland High under Monbeck. He also contributed to the school great¬ ly. Many students knew him as principal of their elemen¬ tary school. Lon Monbeck and Allen Warren helped to make High¬ land one of Indiana’s top schools that is still striving for excellence.

Silver Time 25 Computers Find one that fits Five years ago there were only eight personal computers available: today there are over one hundred. People buying computers today are confused about what computer is best to fit their personal needs. Personal computers can be broken down into two different breeds, the programmers tool and of course the All-American game ma¬ chine. Programming is considered to be the highest art of computer literati. For those who would like to use the computer as a programming tool, what do they look for in a machine? The first thing a programmer looks at is the memory capacity of the computer. Before we can under¬ stand memory, we must first look at what a program is. A program can be defined as a list of instructions which enables the computer to per¬ form a certain task. These instruc¬ tions are stored in places called memory. The more complicated task to be performed, the more memory space occupied by the instructions. The average memory a hobbyist will use, will never exceed 64K(64000 characters). Cable fever Taylor Another major factor to be look at by the programmer are the utilities or programming tools of the com¬ puter. Programming tools refer to specialized functions within the ma¬ chine to carry out complicated algo¬ rithms in a program with ease. A good example is the POKE state¬ ment which allows you to place cer¬ tain values into addresses of the computer from Basic, without going through a complicated subroutine that is slow and inefficent. Last but not least, one of the most popular uses of computers today is entertainment. Looking for the best game com¬ puter is not always the easiest thing. There are many machines out, and Cable Video habits Cable television is sweeping the area by storm. The majority of peo¬ ple that have purchased cable, stay home to watch movies versus going to the movie theater. Cable has overpowered the cine¬ ma with overwhelming demand, be¬ cause cable offers a package deal. This deal consists of four movie sta¬ tions, one sports station, and twen¬ ty-nine regular channels. All of those stations offer an abundance of enter¬ tainment for all ages. Cable television presents nearly sixty movies a month. That is fifty- nine more movies to be seen on TV in a month, than people would see by going to the show in a months time. Cable is not only entertaining, Cable is one of the area’s favorite form of entertainment. There are programs for the whole family. Cox Computers are an essential utility. Today, computers are being purchased rapidly for homes. all advertise their superior game ca¬ pabilities. The formula for a good game ma¬ chines is: pixel resolution x software variety x game quality = the all- american game machine! John Skoog Trevor O’Day changing it is convenient also. It is convenient for someone who missed a movie at the beginning of the month, because there is a considerable chance that exact movie will be on numerous times later. There is one advantage about ca¬ ble that parents have over going to the show. A parent can watch a movie at the beginning of the month to view its contents, to see if it is suitable for children. Except just movies, cable offers a variety of pro¬ grams also. There is a sports station called Sports Vision. That station ex¬ hibits a variety of various sports for the sports buff. Additionally, cable has a childrens program called Nick¬ elodeon. This children’s program¬ ming is fit for children from pre¬ school to teen. Cable television has overcome go¬ ing to the movie theater with over¬ whelming demand. Cable is enter¬ taining for all ages. Kathy McGuckin 26 Silver Time A V Highland High School has it this year in shoes. Most girls wear white Keds sneakers with miniskirts, blue jeans, knickers and pedal push¬ ers. Checkered shoes, usually Vans , are the new thing for guys. They clash with everything, but that’s fashion. Animal prints, high heels, denim and leather are all coming back this year too. Polos, baggies, pinstriped jeans, parachute pants, kamikazee things, boots, a long belted blouse, mix and match sweats. Today a lot of guys shop for them¬ selves instead of sending their moth¬ ers. They care about the way they look. It s great to see guys in a nice shirt and tie. There are many special stores for guys at Southlake too, such as: Richman’s, Silverman’s the Lark and others. It doesn’t take a lot of money to be in style- accessories can spice up a wardrobe to make it look new. For instance, some cheap jewelry, plastic bangles, and beads, and something like dad’s old watch or even dad’s shirt, adds just the right touch to be stylish. Just belt it with a tie or sash to blouce it out and instant femininity! One piece of men’s clothing on a girl is called “Haberdashery” its the new style in argyle sweaters and vests, ties and oxfords. Many clothes are uni sex, mean¬ ing they are for girls or guys, so don’t hesitate to buy something great-looking because it was seen on someone of the opposite sex. And girls, if it can t be found in juniors or misses, try the boys department. A small would be a size A-16, medium an 18, and a large a size 20. Items like Ralph Lauren, polos, and Izod shirts are less expensive for little boys. The bottom line on fashion today in H.H.S. is the individual doesn’t like it, it shouldn’t be bought. One cannot pull off any kinds of look if that person doesn’t feel good in it. The most important thing to remem¬ ber though is individuality. Pick out clothes that will suit you, the individ¬ ual, that will look good and can fit into one’s budget. Kelly Knicker ♦� Silver Time 27 I 4 4 I 4 I 4 I S4 k| S Millions of Americans are now flipping on their television sets in the afternoon to watch an hour filled with drama, laughs and too many commercials. What element exists in these daytime dramas that at¬ tracts such a vast audience? Soaps have a psychological effect on it’s watchers. Many people be¬ come so absorbed in a character’s life, that it helps them subordinate their troubles. Subconsciously, these people take on the character’s troubles. Therefore, soaps provide an outlet for some people. It is best Feet in a hall different footfalls pulsating as if stomping out their own rhythm. Each marching to the beat of a different drummer? Eyes scanning the sea of faces suddenly illuminate recognizing another pair of colored rimmed, black centered jewels flirting in a glossy pool of whiteness. Smiles bursting forth like the time-lapsed photography sequence of a blossoming flower. Words tumbling without rhythm as each voice hurriedly whispers questions, answers, thoughts, feelings. Friendship a closeness of hearts immeasurable in miles, yards, or feet. Theresa Kenders for people to take these shows light¬ ly. In most cases, they prove to be quite humorous to imagine that peo¬ ple really live like the soaps suggest they do. Of course, everyone’s neighbor has a shady history of once being a lady of the evening. This character was set on the right track by her now former husband. Soon they get a divorce and she marries a multi-millionaire. She has an affair with her former husband and gets pregnant but thinks the baby is her husband’s. He lies by acting as though the child is really his. This is impossible because he is sterile. She soon finds out — the result — di¬ vorce. The birth of the child brings about the mixed feelings betwed the two parents. They plan to re¬ marry, then tragedy strikes. The death of their son leaves the father mournful and the mother accusing the father of murder. The next time the t.v. has nothing to offer in the daytime, try watching a soap opera. Be careful, you may| join other Americans and becor “hooked” on soap operas. Kathy Funston Life after class From the time school starts ev- ery-morning to the dismissal bell after school, many students are shortchanging themselves by only taking required classes. These peo¬ ple may be missing out on some of the most interesting and fun extra¬ curricular activities their school has to offer. There are clubs, organizations and team sports that pay attention to one’s particular need. First of all, decide what your favorite pasttime is or think about what lies in your future. There are groups you can join to findout if you really like the goal you’ve picked. If one has ability in sports, next time try out for the school team, maybe someone en¬ joys speaking in front of others then they have speech debate, or drama to choose from. Whatever one’s tal¬ ent is it should be put into use to benefit themselves or others. Through one’s efforts there can be a feeling of accomplishment and seif satisfaction knowing one has achieved something along with new friends and many exciting memories also. Everyone can learn a lot from their actions which may someday enhance one’s self into a more pro¬ ductive person. Karen Krahn ‘In’ ‘Me? Were you ever in the midst of a group when you suddenly realized you had become the group and lost your identity? What is better: Being ‘in’, or being ‘me’? Sometimes the teen needs the fun times with the crowd, but some¬ times a person just needs time to be by himself and think. What’s the matter with taking a breather now and then to sort things out? Sure, everybody needs friends, but remember to balance your life and give yourself time. You are always the most “in” when you are being your real self! Theresa Kenders 28 Silver Time The Eastern ways Cox Concentration! Mike Fazekas knows the val right practice of a martial art. ue of concentrating his body and mind in the The battle oS stress For many who spend their days here at Highland, nights are spent studying the ancient art of Karate. Often times, this word brings up im¬ ages of Bruce Lee’s swiftly moving arms and legs in the fight for justice and truth. Karate can however be more -much more- than this. Originating many thousands of years ago from such eastern nations as Japan, China, and Korea, the martial arts are probably the best method of self-defense there is. Karate began when someone ob¬ served animals and adapted their movements to the human body. After much time and hard work, this mimicking of animals became a very complex and skilled art. Soon many people from all different back¬ grounds made Karate a way of life. This was because the martial arts has so much to offer. The possible physical gains pre¬ sented by the study of Karate are tremendous. One starts with the simplest and most basic movements and with time and practice can be¬ come a picture of skillful move¬ ment. Balance, physical awareness, and physical fitness are therefore only a few of the physical attributes of Karate. Somewhat less well-known are the positive mental aspects of the study of Karate. Many who study Karate are introduced to such activi¬ ties as meditation and mental relax¬ ation which can be helpful in life in general as well as in the perfection of one’s study of Karate. Another benefit is the sense of accomplish¬ ment one gets as a result of studying the martial arts over a period of time. If you’re a person who is looking for a challenge, Karate is definitely a good possibility. Lori Peterson Basil Adad The walls are tumbling in! The pressure is just too much. A person can cope only so much. There is no solution! Stress is felt by teenagers all the time. It is felt both physically and mentally. Everything piles up and somewhere, something is going to break. Stress causes a lot of things It causes anxiety, worry, frustration, and some times even anger. School plays an important role in causing stress. Cramming for a test, or doing “impossible” homework makes a person feel like they have a ton of weights on their shoulders. Alas, something else must be going wrong too. Friends and peers some¬ times cause anxiety. They expect commitments to be fulfilled and a person should never have any wor¬ ries. Life, within itself, causes much frustration and disappointment. It is a large puzzle, and the person must always look for the missing piece. The solution? There really is none. The only real answer must be found within oneself. Stress must be handled carefully and with much consideration. It comes unexpected and can destroy a person if it goes too far. It is destroyed by those who are strong enought to battle. Stress can be nothing more than a back¬ ache; whatever it is, always try to find a solution. Cricket Reynolds q| Silver Time 29 Freshman blues The halls are mysterious and un¬ known. Teachers are strangers and reputation lies within the first few days of school. The never ending struggle of being a freshman. When first walking in the doors of Highland High School, a freshman’s life begins. People pass them by like they were nothing more than space. The only people they associate with are other freshmen. Everyone around them is a stranger. Everyone is unexplored and lost to them. To some, being a freshman is like trying to mold a lump of clay. It is nothing unless someone wants to do something about it. They can either leave that lump there, or make something special out of it. Freshman year can be the build¬ ing block to the future. It is the year of discovering and learning about other people. It may seem tough at first, but it could end up being one of the greatest times in a person’s life. Freshmen can make or break their first year of high school. They can use it wisely and make the most of it, or they can hide in corners and make the year a real disappoint¬ ment. It becomes what they want it to be. Most freshmen feel scared and lost the first few days of school. There are so many rooms. They can’t even find the six they are as¬ signed to. It becomes a maze with many dead ends and passage ways that lead to nowhere. Being a freshman might seem like being in a world of the unknown, but some of the greatest things are learned from the unknown. Fresh¬ man year should be a year of grow¬ ing and maturing. It should be price¬ less! Cricket Reynolds Near the end “What are you going to be when you grow up?” “What do you want to do after you graduate?” Do these questions sound familiar? Most sen¬ iors hear them ten times a day; it is a constant nag at home. Colleges start sending information to seniors about their campus. Pretty soon, before one knows it, one might have twen¬ ty letters from different colleges piled up on the corner of the dresser, just waiting to be opened! For those who do not know what to do, don’t panic; you are not alone! Senior year creeps up like old age; it goes slow, but when it gets there, one doesn’t know where time went. All of a sudden, the shelter of a high school isn’t there anymore. Seniors are faced against the confusing and cruel world. They have to start mak¬ ing their own decisions and become more independent. O.K. seniors, now is the time to put an answer to the questions at hand. You have to stand up for yourself and hold your ground. Mom is not going to call the school and talk to your teachers anymore. She is not going to get you out of classes you think are too hard or get a different teacher you can “get along with”. It is up to you to get along with your professors. There has to be a time set aside for homework. Professors do not let students slide by like some high school teachers do. Get the studying done first; there will be plenty of time to party afterwards. Shelly Garretson 30 Silver Time Rolling over A solitary figure, who has memorized the curves and cracks of the sidewalk, rollers¬ kates effortlessly while jum¬ bled thoughts worry her mind! A prescheduled geometry test is tomorrow; Does pi = 3.14 or 4.13? Will the formulas really give her the answers to the questions asked? “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways ...” No, not the test question in geometry, but an unsolved, unasked ques¬ tion tormenting her soul — memorized for English — still unforgotten by her heart. The cracks of the sidewalk become the petals of a flower: He loves me, he loves me not? Theresa Renders ups? Which one is right-left or right? Left-handers are considered total op¬ posites of right-handers. They do everything backwards, and everyth¬ ing in reverse, and usually are con¬ sidered clumsy, because of this. The world today considers right¬ handers to be dominate. They make everything associated and fit for the right-handed people. So where do left-handers fit in? They usually don’t fit at all. They are stuck using right-handed things. Even in kinder¬ garten, left-handers have to buy scis¬ sors that say LEFTY or they can’t cut straight. Finally there is a solution for left- handed people. Now there is a group strickly for left-handers. They dis¬ cuss the problems put in front of them. From now on, all right-handers be¬ ware, left-handers are here to stay. Cricket Reynolds Contacts get framed In the past people with impaired vision had only one choice to cor¬ rect it with eyeglasses. Now, there’s an alternative — contact lenses. Both contacts and glasses enable the wearer to see things more clear¬ ly. However, each have their own distinct advantages and disadvan¬ tages. There are other factors which one must consider in making a decision as to which of these two are suitable for the individual. Participating in sports is much easier with contacts than glasses. One does not have to worry about contacts shattering. Wearing glasses is definitely less time consuming then taking care of contacts. Most important, is how a person feels about himself. Contacts can give a person more self-confidence and assurance about themself. Looking and feeling better about oneself are important factors in de¬ ciding between glasses or contacts. Of course, with new designer and fashion frames, glasses can be worn with a fashionable look. Also, con¬ tacts have become easier to handle with the new extended wear types. Extended wear contacts allow the individual to wear them up to a peri¬ od of two weeks. These contacts can be slept in and worn non-stop over this time. The extended wear costs a little more, but they can eliminate most of the time needed to care for contacts. Whatever the choice, the decision is up to the individual’s needs and personal tastes. The important thing is to feel confident with oneself and to project this confidence to every¬ one around whether one choses to wear contact lenses or eyeglasses.

Green TIN GRINS “Braces! Why do I have to get braces? Can’t I have crooked teeth for the rest of my life?” This is a typical reaction of a teen who is about to get braces. This also might be the reaction of the parents once they see the cost. Braces are being seen on more and more teens each day. It’s almost like a new fashion trend. Like a fash¬ ionable wardrobe, braces are expen¬ sive. The average cost if $2200. This is a lot for a mouthful of tin. Many ask is it worth it? Be prepared for anything, name calling can be a bit nerve-racking. The names start at tinsel teeth and go all the way to railroad tracks. Just remember, the name calling with the wires will diminish and the teeth will be straight. It’s something to look forward to. Over the “tin-grin” period remem¬ ber to keep smiling and think of straight teeth. Kim Messmer Synchronicity Concerts attract fans The Ministry, The Fixx, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, A Flock of Seagulls, and The Police: not to mention a MTV V-J, all in the same place on the same day. What more could a music fan ask for? Chicago’s biggest music event of the summer was at Comiskey Park on July 23 . . People from all over the area arrived at the Park early just to stand in line for hours. Some people went as far as to spend the night outside the gates to get a good seat . . . The awaiting fans proved to be interesting. Psuedo punk rockers were there dressed in everything from plastic bags and fishnet stockings to leather, leappard spotted jumpsuits. One guy, tired of waiting, even scaled the wall of Comiskey Park just to meet the Security men at the top. At 10:00 right on schedule, the gates opened and the fans ran in. Most crowded on the field, sat down and waited again, for an¬ other two hours. Then Martha Quinn, an MTV V- J (video jocky) was there to intro¬ duce the band, A Flock of Sea¬ gulls. Dressed in bright clothes, Mike Score and company per¬ formed such songs as I RAN, SPACE AGE LOVE SONGS, and TELECOMMUNICATION. De¬ spite some feed-back during a couple of songs, they proved to be great. At last, the moment everyone had been waiting for.

The AUNT GLADYS group plays songs from the progressive rock era and is one of the first bands to use keyboards in a rock fashion. Although they have made local appearances at parties, the cost of such endevors makes frequent appear¬ ances difficult. AUNT GLADYS takes much pride in presenting a variety of music that appeals to all types of audiences. They feel the band should have as much fun playing the music, as the audience has listening to it. To maintain this feel¬ ing, they choose material that tests their playing abili¬ ty, while still giving the audi¬ ence familiar material. Erin Okamoto Tom Dominguez Entertainment The Benches: Benches Brody What it Means A bench is made of wood and its main purpose is to provide a place for people to sit. However, in High¬ land High School, the definition of bench is quite different. There is no such thing as a bench in Highland, but rather “The Benches”. When de¬ fining a Highland bench, one would associate them with a status symbol where only a select group may sit. “The Benches” are correlated with the athletes, cheerleaders, and “rahs” of the school. Thus a large problem has resulted over who has the right to sit on the benches. There is only one way to do it; go take a seat. Since the benches are separated according to classes, it should be easy to feel comfortable and associate with one’s own class¬ mates. Those who really feel dis- cluded shouldn’t. “The benchers” show true char¬ acter for having enough courage to establish their own seat on the benches. They too had a “first day” when they were nervous and felt un¬ comfortable. The right to sit on the benches isn’t an exclusive right; the choice is up to the student. Sure, many students do not wish to sit on the benches. The cafeteria and library provide alternative places to socialize, gossip, and do homework; the common past-time at the “benches.” Many false accusations are made against “the benchers.” There is al¬ ways room for one more, and social¬ izing with classmates can be a lot of fun. Don’t feel scared to go take a seat. Remember, everyone looks the same in his underwear! Beth Bruynell Study Time! Brad Haack and Jeff Bogus rush to finish their homework before the first hour bell rings. The cafeteria is a great place for that! 36 Benches Take Your Seat? “I don’t believe I have to walk by these people again! Why do they make such a big deal about sitting on the benches? They are all staring at me and making jokes. I never did anything to them! Finally, I’m past them. I don’t have to worry about that again, until tomorrow morn¬ ing.” One of the most individual things about Highland High School is the “class” benches. These are noticed by everyone and anyone who walks into the school. At the beginning of the year, the first thing you hear is from the fresh¬ man, “Why don’t we have one?” Why don’t they? The “class” benches pose a lot of problems. The “benchers” think it’s the “non-benchers” fault and visa- versa. The “benchers” say they don’t discrimate against the people who don’t sit on the benches, they don’t care who sits there. When the “benchers” were asked what these other people should do al¬ most all replied, “Just come and sit down!” That is exactly what people should do. Belinda Marsh Ahh A Bench! Finally, after a year sit¬ ting on the windowsills Freshman year, the sophomores have a bench to sit on! Pro- -Con “I am a bench person. People think that we (bench¬ ers) despise everyone who doesn’t sit on the benches. No! In the end you don’t turn to your bench, but your friend.” JOE HELMER “No one is told not to sit on the benches. The people make the choice on their own.” COURTNEY COURTICE “I notice when I walk by the benches everybody sort of glares at me or makes a stupid comment. They don’t own the benches and they shouldn’t make a big deal about it.” KERRI MURPHY “The benches are not real¬ ly a problem. I mean, the people who want to sit there do, and the ones that don’t, don’t. If you think about it, everybody belongs in the school.” JOE VATES “Benches are good be¬ cause they let people get to know everyone in their class.” PEGGY VIATOR T!

A FRIENDLY LUNCH Often wher there is no room at your favorite table you are forced to sit at a stranged setting It may be uncomfortable at first, it’s a great way to meet new people. Where the ELITE Many different things go on in the cafe¬ teria, besides eating. Now at Highland, students are socializing more and eating less. This is probably due to the fact that the media is constantly pushing the health and fitness and it is so every time you pick up a piece of food an advertise¬ ment for diet pills or a health club races through your mind. The majority of kids in this school believe that the lunch hour is quickly becoming a time of chatting instead of chewing. Sure there are several students that never miss a lunch; others may just get too hungry during the day to skip. With ala carte lines in view, it is hard for a dieter to pass up just one bag of potato chips. It is no doubt that every day the cooks offer temporary freedom to choose our own meals, we tend to pass up the more sensible choices. This year our lunches have been changed to sup¬ posedly meet our growing needs. The “bench people” have been stripped of their honors and have been sentenced to the cafe¬ teria for being disorderly, loud, and just plain sloppy. Several of the students feel that this change was unnecessary, this just makes the challenge greater to smuggle food out. While others scurry into the lunch room just to find a decent seat. Maybe a small percentage of garbage is cleaned up, but it is because of the precautionary mea¬ sures taken to stay out of trouble. Lunch is supposed to be used to eat a lunch that will keep you filled, so that your mind will be ready for the up and coming day, Enjoy it! l [ Cafeteria 39 40 The world around us AX. champs The Chicago White Sox dominat¬ ed the sports scene this year. Win¬ ners of the American League West Division brought Chicagoans togeth¬ er with pride for their team. Al¬ though defeated by the Baltimore Orioles in the playoffs remembrance of the Southsiders’ ‘Winning Clgly’ still lurks in Chicagoans minds. De¬ feating the Sox brought the Orioles closer to winning the pennant which they did beating the Phildelphia Phil¬ lies. At the age of 88, George Halas, founder of the National Football League, died October 31, 1983. Ha¬ las established professional football. He was the owner as well as a mem¬ ber of the Chicago Bears. ‘Papa Bear’ as most called him, was also a baseball player for the New York Yankess in 1919. After an accident, Halas looked towards football. His memory lingers in football fans’ minds. On the lighter side and closer to home, Highland High has recon¬ structed the athletic field. Work on this large job started a year ago. This reconstruction costs $425,000. The improvements included, a new lighting system, expanded seating for both home and visitors sides. A new press box was added while the old will now be used on the visitors side and the track was repaved. In addition to these improvements was a new scoreboard. Many feel the money used was put to good use. The year in sports has had its ups and downs. The sportsworld will suf¬ fer a great loss of Papa Bear’, but it has seen numerous accomplish¬ ments in every sport. Shawna Deresch The Chicago White Sox were the 1983 American League West Division Champions. The Southsiders claimed victories after vic¬ tories in the 1983 season. Burton Masepohl, president of the school board of trustees and director of buildings and grounds, and George Savin, celebrate the improvements of the field. Our world The year in review has been quite an amazing one, full of triumphs as well as tribulations. Chicago elected its first black mayor, Harold Washington, in its 150 year history.. Also, Chicagoan Jesse Jackson, announced his can¬ didacy for President. Also Lech Walesa, leader of the outlawed Labor union, Solidarity, in Poland, received the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to gain peace for Poland. Tragically, over 200 marines were killed in Beirut when a truck full of explosives on a suicide mission, crashed into the Marine Operations Building. Days later, American Marines and Army Rangers along with troops from various Caribbean countries, invaded Grenada, which was taken over by Marxists. This decision was made to protect our democracy. How can so many bad things hap¬ pen and so few good ones? Teens today should realize the precarious situation the world is in today. Many adults wonder if teens really care about what is going on in society. Teens should stand up and say, “We do care! This our world. Let’s do something about it.” There are so many things we can do. We can fight for our beliefs and win our battles. The problem is no one stands up for their beliefs. Who knows, someday one of Highland’s own graduates may be¬ come President or another impor¬ tant world leader. By taking interest in the world now, we are showing doubting adults we are capable or caring and rebuilding our world. Kim Messmer BEFORE.

Co Going ' round and ’round in the WORLD OF WHEELS Green Many things make the world go around, and for many people it can’t go around better than on a perfect set of wheels. Students at Highland are already working at skills which eventaully lead to possible entries at national car shows, such as the International World of Wheels where John Mayer’s originally designed Phaeton took first place. The car and its de¬ signer producer are pictured at the right. While some young men work for a good look — from thundering side- pipes to a classic paint job, others concentrate on engine performance. One car enthusiast may spend his money on tinted windows, wire wheels, and decals and flames, while another will put his money into headers, dual carbs, high perfor¬ mance cams and racing pistons. Those with more money will even bore and balance the engine-super charge, or turbo-charge it. One look at Highland s parking lots will show how serious some stu¬ dents are about their cars. Scott Hank’s ’76 Dodge Charger has a 400 engine, dual carbs, and a tunnel ram. Scott Felton has a ’57 Chevy with a 283 engine and a three-speed manual transmission. Scott Blevin’s 80 Pontiac Trans Am has a 455 QuadraJet with headers. Others, like Bill Green, remain loyal to the special qualities of the classic VW — the Bug! 42 World of Wheels Fine-Tuned!

Clubs fill this need by giving people a sense of camaraderie, by letting them know that there are people who care enough to work really hard toward a common goal. Here at Highland, people have been caring in this way for twenty five years. By joining clubs, one not only becomes a better person himself, he helps to better other people, too. 44 Clubs Caring when it counts Clubs 45 ‘Cultural Experience’ Foreign Language Week sets new tone for class The word ‘foreign’ always has a rather strange sound to it, but by the end of the first annual Foreign Lan¬ guage Week, Highland students were also beginning to believe for¬ eign’ can also mean the sound of fun. Under the direction of Mrs. Mary Certa, the last week in January be came a celebration of the German, French, and Spanish cultures. Ethnic bakery was a highlight of many classes, and mid-week guest speakers were brought in to not only lecture about various customs and cultures students are studying, but they also gave valuable information on the value of knowing a second language when applying for a job. Opportunities for study and travel Foreign Language: Bottom row Allison Ve chey, Debra Kim. Qweishon Brown. Cheryl Muss, Jean Pea. Middle row Kellie Hanzava sillis. Lisa Swanson. Julie Villarreal. Sue Ab abroad were also discussed. While both teachers and students really got into the spirit of Foreign Language Week, the entire year was a success in the department. As al¬ ways, a good group of students qualified for foreign study through the Indiana University Honors Pro¬ gram for Foreign Studies. A thor¬ ough study of the department’s past also revealed Highland has one of the strongest foreign language repre¬ sentations in the area. Highland stu¬ dents have traveled abroad in large numbers, and the school has also welcomed students from many dif¬ ferent parts of the world to share in the experience of living the Ameri¬ can way in Highland, Indiana. • bott, Kathy Deresch, Connie Kiper, Lori Moore.

The Theatre Company, formerly Drama Club, is undergoing a total facelift. One of the major changes is a new director. Larry A. Brechner, Auditorium Director, has taken over the Theatre Company. The associ¬ ate director is Pamela Guenzler, a music teacher at Highland. One project that is totally differ¬ ent this year is the fall studio pro¬ duction. This is an entirely student directed play. Brad Toth and Mi¬ chelle Bosten undertook the task of directing “George Washington Slept Here”. This was the first production under the new leadership. Mon beck Auditorium Staff, founded five years ago when Larry A. Brechner came to Highland as Auditorium Director, has grown into a sizeable organization with almost sixty members. Over the past five years, Auditorium Staff has set high standards in Technical Theater pro¬ duction on the nearly fifty produc¬ tions per season. Included in the pro¬ ductions are all school produced shows as well as many professional shows from outside the school sys ¬ tem.

They are an organization that is extremely well known and is always doing something for everyone. This year they sold donuts before school on Thursday mornings and other things like candy and stuffed animals at different times in the year. FHA also went some field trips and sponsored trips to Great Amer¬ ica for anyone who wanted to go. This was a nice thing to do and it was appreciated. Many members of the club also take the classes that Mrs. Erwin teaches. These are also important because they deal with everyday situations and how to cope with them. They get chances to use their knowledge on these activities. This is something to get involved in. SHOWING THEIR COLORS Mrs. Mar- janna Erwin shows the F.H.A. pennant to some students.

OEA officers include: Tracy Kralik, presi- - dent; Bobbi Irwin, vice president; Sue Garinski, secretary; Diane Lucas and Brenda Bailey, recorder-historian; and Debbie Greer, treasurer. The purpose of OEA was explained earlier in the business season by Miss i Pam Hires, “The purpose is for compe- I tition, local, state, and also national f competition. We have discussed differ¬ ent kinds of business areas. OEA uses i word processors, electronic typewrit- ■ ers, machine shorthand and steno type machines, and court reporting.” OEA is for students who are taking business courses and plan on going into advanced courses. It is also for students who are serious about careers in secretarial work. This was the first year OEA has been active. During this time, the club has acquired 65 members and is on it’s way to becoming an important part of the business department.

OTHER PROJECTION Crowel, Bob Bateman, Tim Son Radio Club it’s Doughnut Day!’ Communicating with others is probably the most important factor to success. The members of Radio Club and the Audio Visual Aides communicate with students and teachers everyday. The Radio Club broadcasts music for the high schools entertainment every morning before the school day begins, and during A,B, and C lunch periods. Broadcasting music for the stu- dents listening pleasure is predomi¬ nately what the Radio Club does. But, in addition to the that, D.J.’s at the “W.H.H.S.” select music for their days’ show, as well as perfect¬ ing the use of the radio equipment and polishing their delivery. The Audio Visual Aides assist Mr. Gilliam by taking movies, filmstrips, projectors and television sets to classrooms and setting them up for teachers, as well as learning the use of the equipment and mastering the tricks of the trade. Relating to people while doing things we enjoy is very rewarding. The members of Radio Club and the Audio Visual Aides take pride in their work. Clubs, such as these, can help in the success of future life. Mr. Gilliam Retires Mr. Arthur Gilliam, the man everyone has come to know as the head of the Audio Visual Department, is retiring at the end of the school year after working at Highland High for more than twenty-seven years. Not many people know that Mr. Gilliam is one of three origi¬ nating teachers still working at the high school. (Mrs. Nichol¬ son and Mr. Sypolt are the oth¬ er Two.) Before joining the teaching staff at Highland, back in 1957, Mr. Gilliam taught eight years in Munster, and two years at Ross Township. Mr. Gilliam taught fine arts, industrial art classes of wood working, draft¬ ing, and electronics, while run¬ ning the Audio Visual Depart¬ ment part time. In 1966 he be gan working with the Audio Vi¬ sual full time. Mr. Gillaim has witnessed quite a few changes and addi¬ tions. The building of the Field House, Mombeck Auditorium, the English Wing and the swim¬ ming pool, just to name a few. After the 1983-84 school year is over, Mr. Gilliam is retir¬ ing to his farm.

As always, the Speech and De¬ bate team members prepare their events for competition, but there are two major differences. This year they have immeasurable spirit and the team is unified as never before. As Lisa Immig puts it, “Speech and Debate has always been fun and competitively, we usually did well, but this year everything seems to be falling into place The officers for the 83-84 season are as follows: Erin Okamoto, Presi¬ dent, Thom Holicky, Vice President, MaryBeth Jaremski, Secretary, and Lisa Immig Treasurer. The Speech and Debate season is the longest in the school, athletics and non-athletic alike. Starting in early October and ending in late April, the Speech Arts members accomplish many things. Each season consists of more than ten major meets not including Sec¬ tional, Regionals, State, and Dis¬ tricts. Hard work and dedication is put into preparation for these meets. Mr. Martin, Mr. Stuber, and Mrs. Pe- trin, coaches of the Speech and De¬ bate, practice with the students, and help them perfect their delivery, un¬ til it’s performed well enough for competition. The team is hoping to advance to State Competition level this year, in hope that they will be good enough to compete at National Competition, a goal which is shared by everyone on the Speech Team. Despite the disadvantage of being on the Speech and Debate team, such as leaving the Junior High parking lot as early as 4:00 in the morning. The advantages are very rewarding especially when the High¬ land team places at a meet. Every¬ one, no matter how they might have performed that day, helps celebrate the teams victory. After the meet is over, the ner¬ vousness that was so prominent throughout the day disappears. There is no reason to be tongue tied, because after everyone is on the bus and ready to go home it’s time out for fun!!!! Erin Okamoto Is That You Cox’n? Thom Holicky gives it his all, while performing a dramatic cutting for Speech competition. New ideas, stupid moves, night And Then He Said Mrs. Petrin, Speech Team coach tells a Speech story to Dave Fields and Lisa Immig in hopes to get her point across. 56 Speech.

Debate 57 58 Ski Club Hitting the slopes Highland Ski Club Officers: Cheryl Dock, Bob Crowel, Darren Leuandowski, Mike Mathis, Bill Green, Bob Guzek, and Greg Johnson. Waking up around 4:00 in the morning and being at the school by 5:00 is not the ideal way to start off the day for most students. However, if one is a member of the Highland High School Ski Club it seems to be an eternity waiting for the day to leave. That is only the beginning of many preparations. Fighting the ele¬ ments is another great feat. Facing forty below zero winter tempera¬ tures and then again no snow at all is another fear. To some it does not matter and to others it means the difference of whether or not to go. Money is a hassle because some¬ times the prices are outrageous, un¬ less you are a part of a group or have your own equipment. The ski members sold calendars and M M’s to raise money to help pay for parts of their trips. The serving officers in the 1983- 84 years were President Bob Guzek, Vice President Bill Green, Secretary Kim Leyba, and Treasurer Cheryl Dock. Together they helped sponsor David Owen organize trips to the Pines, Bittersweet, Cannonsberg, and the Boyne Mountains and the Highlands. The Boyne Mountains and the Highlands are the ultimate trip to many members because it is an over night trip and a person can get more skiing done there. The course itself is a challenge to even some very experienced skiers. It was an excitint season and many members will be back to enjoy an¬ other run down the slopes!! Hitting The Slopes. Whether it ' s at the Pines or on a trip to Cannonsburg. ski club mem bers like Dan Hoffman learned how to enjoy even the coldest winter day — on skis! 59 A New Era. Directed by Dr. Philip Cartw¬ right, Highland students learned the new school year would be more demanding in academic time and effort. Silver ’84 brings change Highland celebrated its twenty- fifth anniversary this year, and also celebrated a new, serious attitude toward education. The School Board passed new changes which Dr. Philip Cartw¬ right, Highland superintendent, di¬ rected to the high school. The school day was lengthened for the next year by a half h our each day, and requirements for graduation were raised to 42 credits. Other changes involving fewer student aides and the possibility of early morning classes, as well as no study halls, were also investigated. As Highland moved into its sec¬ ond quarter of a century the word was clear: Highland was also getting more serious about training young people to succeed in the modern world. Students wondered at first, but they too saw the need for stronger, more aggressive educational re¬ quirements. Changes 61 r Classes — Class offerings have changed over these 25 years, yet real education and developing personal skills and attitudes has continued. Highland’s teachers have always worked for excellence, and as each student has learned and grown, thousands of young people have made it possible to be productive and knowledgeable citizens in Indiana, America, and the world. Classes teach many things, but most of all they prove a person with knowledge is a person with real class! Reaching for more Language: IN A DAZE . . is Fresh¬ man John Hughes as he makes use of the language lab in the Junior High School. •%($@! C $%@ No mat ter how it is written or what is said, everything is some sort of communicating. 64 %% y a tool to utilize! N owadays, how can one communicate? One of the main things that might pop into the mind is language. It is something that has so very much to give yet, how much we abuse it constantly. It is often used improperly pur¬ posely. To many people, it may be just a bunch of garbage, but a sec¬ ond language is something great to have in your background. Perhaps one should consider Spanish, German, French, or maybe even computers as his second lan¬ guage. Computers is one of the newest second languages that can give one the feeling of self-achievement. Pro¬ gramming a computer, or just fool¬ ing around with one, can be an ex- Root perience. Some jobs may require their em¬ ployees to have a second language for travel. And, now, with college right around the corner, and the eco¬ nomic situation the way it is, many are turning to any type of job just to get by. To get by in life, you have to do your best. Our language is so broad and gradually broadining. Start tak¬ ing it seriously and stop fooling around with it. Communication is al¬ ways needed, so start today. AND HERE’S ANOTHER ONE! Communi cation in a speech class may earn one a trophy or maybe a feeling or sense of pride. END RUN ... Senior Janet Mastey gi ves a sigh of relief as she punches the final keys to end her program. Communication 65 It Isn’t Easy! Making a meal from scratch is a work of art say Ron Jacusis and Nancy Troxel. Future Print out. Greg Palmer learns to chart his future with the help of a computer. Money? Free lance writing and journalism skills attract the talent of Betsy Molnar, Ka ren Krahn, and Karen Nagy. “And so ... ' Mr. Dan Miller helps his students learn to approach government re¬ sponsibly. The future starts now Careers, something that is put into use, each and everyday, maybe not by us, but by our elders, and soon the elders will be us. A career is a way of life, whether it be a gar¬ bage man or a doctor, we are mak¬ ing use of what we learned or didn’t learn in school. With everything be¬ ing so technically advanced, it is so very important to get the best edu¬ cation possible. With the way prices are rising you should be encouraged to take the classes in which to get into college and which you won’t have to pay outrageous prices for. Everyday of school brings a per¬ son closer and closer to his dream and soon that dream will become reality. That one person may just have the best career that one may endure. Mow, it is not unusual to come into any of the foods or cook¬ ing classes and find that about 35 to 40% are guys and if a guy said he was taking a home ec. class years ago, he was considered a fruit or any type of name like that, but now, the society is becoming familiarized with the thought of men in the kitch¬ en. But, sad to say, girls still aren’t getting heavily involved in any of the shop classes, maybe it is the thought they will lose respect by other female friends or just because they don’t get into that kind of man¬ ly tasks. But in my own opinion, a shop class like they offer here at Highland High School could be something many can lean back on for a future career. That’s Intense! Tim Gauthier knows how hard it is to concentrate before final exams, while Darren McGee needs a lot of knowl¬ edge and a steady to hand to work with electronics. Survival Fittest! The Everyone likes to get away from it all at least once in a while. But, a survival course offered to the ad¬ vanced girl’s gym classes by Mrs. Debra Howe, was quite a surprise for those who attempted it. From September 30 to October 2, was a chance to do just that; at¬ tempt to canoe down the brisk Su¬ gar Creek, hike up and down the strenuous hills, and learn how to sur¬ vive and use nature. Each and every detail must be carefully looked over. Each little thing must be packed and thorough ly checked before one can leave. Even the smallest task can be dif¬ ficult to learn how to do but it’s easy once you get the hang of it. Putting up a pup tent is not quite as easy as it may seem. Surviving depends on only one person to help you. That is YOG! Physical fitness is an important factor in survival. Physical well-being can make one feel and look good, and do well. Accomplishment is an achieve¬ ment to be proud of. “I DID IT” is a common expression to gloat about, yet something to be proud of. The high school pool was one of the places where the girls learned how to “survive” if she was sudden¬ ly overturned in a boat or canoe. Clothes become an obstacle to her as she is being weighted down by pants, a shirt, etc. It just shows that normal, every¬ day objects can become a hindrance rather than a useful tool. Hiking, to some, may be a form of relaxation, yet to others, it is a diffi¬ cult thing to do because it involves the use of every muscle in the body. I guess as the old adage goes, “survival of the fittest takes a lot of time and effort, but it can be accom¬ plished by each and everyone of us if we try.” These girls did their best and they deserve a great amount of praise. DON’T EVEN ASK US! Lisa Coy and Caro¬ lyn Golec feel triumph by finishing the course but are exhausted after the tremen¬ dous workout. RELAX, IT’LL BE FUN Many people were hesitant to join, but in the end, found it to be quite an accomplishment. 69 The Key to the Future Mow is the time to unlock the doors to the future. Using the key which you were given at birth, it will not be a difficult task. Everything one does is some little tool which can and will be the future, whether it be shop classes, mathematics or even a babysitting job. Some may feel somewhat per¬ plexed at the thought of babysitting being used in the future. But to those intending on marriage, where children may come into the picture, it is a helpful thing. Mathematics is one of the keys to unlock that big door to unleash us into that BIG world of ours. It’s a jungle o ut there and everyone needs something to help them. Remember, even though the fu¬ ture seems a long way off, it is just one of the keys on the key ring of life. The FUTURE is You! JUMP TO IT! Sophomore Ray Nagel enjoys himself thoroughly as he applies the final touches to his piece of work. This knowl¬ edge may come in handy. IT’S ALL IMPORTANT as each and everyone knows, so try to do the best that you can because someday, you may need that little piece of something to survive. YOU ARE WHAT YOU ARE! Whether you are a student just interested in reading for fun or a counselor at Highland High School you are important and everything you do is important to your future. ntPZRTY or Another Style.

Mrs. Sally Fitch teaches Ken Gargano a new type of brush stroke while Nancy Parlor waits for some advice on her project. Art makes it all beautiful Classes such as art can teach things in a much more subtle way. Besides providing students with skill in the different media such as oil and acrylic painting, woodcut and three dimensional sculpture, there is also a more lasting type of knowledge which is learned. With the world concentrating on computers and videos these days, art helps those who study in develop an eye for finding beauty every¬ where. It isn’t simply a landscape or person which can be beautiful, but any part of daily life can rise to greater value once seen through the eyes of an artist. Mrs. Sally Fitch, Mr. Kenneth Dowdy, Mr. Stan Lampa, and Miss Margorie Bluhm are helping students discover this and several other valuable things learned in the world of art. Getting Ready? There are many courses available to students at Highland High that will help them in later years. Take for instance our Vocational Arts classes. Some may say that they are just easy credit courses. On the other hand, they do take a great deal of ability and skill. Many of the skills learned in these classes can be used in the future. Starting early! Sophomore Missy Wright types away in her typing class. Towing the line? Senior Bill Weder concen trates on his assignment in class. Root Highland boasts a modern busi¬ ness department. Included are word processors, electric typewriters, and steno-machines. These machines will help prepare students for the business world of tomorrow. The highly skilled staff at Highland High help make attaining these skills a lot easier. The way of tomorrow is by com¬ puter. Every where you look there is a computer taking its place in mod ern technology. Regardless of how people feel about them, they are an essential part of our lives. There is going to be a great demand for tech¬ nicians and operators in this field. Taking classes such as Fortran and (continued to page 76) Hit the right key!

Last but not least is our Science department. There are so many fields a person can go into with a strong science back ground. The medical field for example is so vast that one can go from dental hygiene to pre med. Our science “If I had a hammer!” Sophomore Chris Bro viak works carefully on his project. Training On The Job My photography interests have been greatly enlightened by being on the Shield and Trojanal staff.

The staff has proved to be exceptional training for a future career in photo-journal ism. — Jim Cox Trojanal staff has given me the in¬ spiration to get more training in pho tography. They should offer a class just for students who want to become photographers. The Trojanal and Shield staff is a good experience for someone who wants to give it a try. — Keith Brady classes are equipped with modern devices to make our labs a great deal easier and efficient. So the next time you think of Highland High as a waste of your time, just remember this. All the skills and knowledge you attain will help you in the times to come. Paging Dr. Smith!

Careers 77 Culture Shock “One night for dessert my French mother fixed the box of Jello that I had brought with me as an example of typical American cuisine. After the first taste I was be sieged with questions: “Is this your favorite food? Do Americans eat it a lot? How do you keep it on your spoon?” As a typical French family, they were obliged to start analyzing, discussing, and even arguing over the Jello. When they finally no¬ ticed how hard I was laugh¬ ing, I told them it was sup¬ posed to be “fun.” Mary Pyke What’s That Say?

Liz Trytek celebrates in the city with her German brother and sister. 78 Foreign Study Beyond Highland ' s Borders It all starts here in high school. Students take a foreign language as just another class so the chances of getting into a college increase. But for the students who had the opportunity to travel to an¬ other country as part of the I.G Honors Program and the YFG., this attitude seemed to have changed. This chance comes once a year to students with an opportunity to travel to another country and ex¬ perience the different customs and traditions the country has to offer. This past summer, seven stu¬ dents went to France, Germany, Mexico, and Japan. Rigorous studying took place, tests were taken, students were interviewed, and evaluated. The outcome was very promising for Highland. Out of the hundreds of students testing for the I.G. Honors Program, six students, two from each language department, were chosen to study in the country of their studied lan¬ guage, for two months. Mary Pyke, Basil Adad, Paul Steinke, DeeDee Sambor, Mary Wermuth, and Liz Trytek all went to France, Mexico, and Germany. Ann Hubbard, under the YFG pro¬ gram, spent her summer in Japan. Each one of the students had memorable experiences. Meeting new people, living in different cul¬ tures, and seeing familiar sights like the Eiffel Tower, The Berlin Wall, and the Kamakura, made the trips all worth while. Travelling to another country was rather a challenge. The stu¬ dents who went to Europe and Mexico signed oaths, promising not to speak English while staying in the country. As for Ann, she could speak English, but hardly anyone else in Japan could speak English to her. Leaving friends and family for the summer seemed difficult at first, but the chance to meet new people and get the chance to study in an exotic country made it seem all worth the while. Erin Okamoto Foreign Travel 79 Deep in thought A good grade is important to many and Dave Kelly knows concentra tion is a good key. The desire to learn Mrs. Certa strives to help all her stu¬ dents understand the meaning of French and the purpose of the language. Pronunciation enhancement . . . Using the headsets often shows an improvement in a stu¬ dents fluency in speech. 80 Foreign Language Foreign Language Ole! T here’s no better way to broaden ones hori¬ zons than learning a foreign language. Being able to speak a foreign language is an asset that one may credit from in college, at a job, or just everyday life. Here at Highland High School, there are three ma¬ jor foreign languages avail¬ able: French, Spanish, and German. These classes can be taken a total of four years and in most cases, two years is usually required for a col¬ lege-bound student. A for¬ eign language is a favored college-prep course. Along with learning the language, these classes offer much more, such as learn¬ ing about the country itself, its foods, traditions, and the ethnic background. They also offer an occasional fieldtrip, possibly to a suave French restaurant, or maybe to see a Spanish flemingo dancer. There’s no end to the possibilities. Taking a foreign language is an experience no one should deny themself of. Not only is it educational, it can be a lot of fun. Paris, Germany, Spain Sharon Kusbel dreams of one day visiting a foreign country and experiencing something new. Studying helps There are many complicated All in a day’s work As these Spanish students questions asked in class so one must do all the wait for the bell to excuse them, they review what homework to be prepared. they have learned during the hour. Foreign Language THE BEST GLASS English, Math and Science are all examples of classes taken at schools all over the world. However, there is only one class which re¬ quires no lectures or tests. This spe cial class is . . FRIENDSHIP. To some, friends are a must; oth ers could take em’ or leave em When times are rough a friend is Friends .

Green Turnabout ’83 Through the Eyes of Love 87 BAND DOES IT ALL! This year the Highland Trojan Pride showed the school, the town of Highland, and themselves, what the word “Pride’ really means. After an exhausting week of band camp, and practicing until 4:00 ev¬ ery day, the Trojan Pride gave many tremendous performances. Despite the loss of many key marchers and the new addition of a flag auxiliary with all new members, the Trojan Pride should be proud of all their accomplishments. Their first competition of the sea¬ son was at the Chesterton Invita¬ tional. Here they placed third. Mishawaka and Concord soon fol¬ lowed where they prevailed with yet two additional third place positions. Perhaps the best performance oc¬ curred October 15th, 1983. Placing in the top five at regionals was the major factor that would determine who would make it to state. Despite the tremendous efforts that were put into the performance, the band ranked tenth. It was a disappointing time, espe¬ cially for the Senior members who had made it to state through out their high school years. Regardless of this, there are many happy times that are shared amongst this group. The closeness that they share is evi¬ dent on the field. Many people look to the band as a means of filling up the half-time at a football game. To the band and auxi¬ lary members, it is a dedication of time and effort. Most of all, it comes down t o showing pride in something that is believed in and loved. IT’S A MASTERPIECE!! This box has shown what the word ‘Pride really means. Root Mayer IS EVERYONE READY?

Out of the 26 there are six girls who also twirl rifles along with their flags. These girls went through a week long camp at Smith-Walbridge in Syracuse. They had a lot to learn in that little time. Both routines and positions on the field had to be memorized. The corp has performed in the 4th of July parade, (continued to page 91) AWAITING THE MOMENT OF TRUTH!

They managed to get it all together under the direction of Melissa Sharp. There were no captains this year, but there were four seniors that shared the responsibility. They were Rosie Gil, Michele Warkentien, Lori Gilliland and Mary Somodi. The uni¬ ty that this group pulled together produced a successful season. Rose Gil A LINE OF GLORY!

The Orchestra, which is made up mostly of stringed instru¬ ments, spends much time in perfecting their art. Every year they compete in the Indiana State School Music Association (ISSMA) competition. Another of Highland s talented musical groups is the Jazz band. Under the direction of Mr. Bill Kimla, the Jazz band has many performances a year. The Jazz band has many concerts through the year. Besides the regular school concerts, they have many opportunities to perform for various organizations throughout the community. The organizations together are the musical part of the “TROJAN PRIDE”.

Boys’ and girls’ Glee Club gives students their first look into high school vocals. Varsity Choir is the next step for some. Under the direction of Ms. Pamela Guenzler, the Varsity Choir performs in many con¬ certs throughout the year. The Concert Choir is directed by Mr. Gordon Wilder. This choir is for the students who have been in choir a number of years. They work very hard at making choir a success. In the spring of 1983, they were invited to Indiana University to demonstrate their advanced music abilities. When not preparing for a concert the students work on perfecting their scales and voices. In the spring of 1984, they will be leaving on a tour in Europe. They are busy doing fund rais¬ ers to finance their trip. They will be representing Highland in another world!! THE SOUND OF MUSIC??

Secretaries at Highland High have to know everything that goes on. They make this school run. Just imagine every student and teacher, the groups, clubs, and every class - then add the after school sports ac¬ tivities, and you have only part of their daily work load. The rest is filled with attendence, tardies, late passes, and early dismissal slips. Then comes the fun • paperwork plus the never-ending stream of visi¬ tors who appear at Highland’s front door! As some say, “It’s a difficult job, but somebody’s got to do it.’’ With¬ out the people in the office and at¬ tendence, this school would never be as organized as it is.

Realising the future demands of the world is one thing; however, it takes something special to go out and meet those demands. The class of ’83, with heads held high, marched up the aisles to receive their diplomas. Each one of the graduates held that “something spe¬ cial.” Feelings are so intermingled at this time that the graduates can’t see straight. They are exhilerated at finally getting that diploma, sorrow¬ ful when thinking about their youn¬ ger friends and they are afraid. Afraid of what the world has to offer them. . . . WE CAN BECAUSE WE THINK WE CAN!! Ernie Tseng, Katrina Dipple, Dave Madura, and Rob Reed all believe this and are now in college. OH WHAT A FEELING!! Graduation in¬ volves all kinds of feelings. A lot of joy, sadness, and determination. . . . And Beyond Finally, the four years are over! Graduation strikes a new beginning. It is a time to pat oneself on the back and say, “I made it. ’ Also, it is a time to look forward to things to come. Whether it be college or var¬ ious other career choices, everyone is faced with something bright and new. Today’s world requires genu¬ ine leaders. The Class of ’83’s future outlook is one of optimism. They are a strong and united group and a high and achieving group, all with individ¬ ual goals and dreams. The time has come to release dreams and create reality. The 83 class leaders are pre¬ pared for just that. Graduation is a time to celebrate a completion and a new future. Mew horizons are in the future for each and every graduate. The world these days doesn’t always sound very en¬ couraging, but one could never tell by listening to the speeches by two special academic achievers, Ernie Tseng and Katrina Dipple. Valedicto¬ rian Ernie Tseng related the eager view of the graduates and the readi¬ ness to meet the future head-on. The day everyone thought would never come, came. Just look at all those smiles. Look at the tears of joy and excited expressions. Finally, senior year is over. Mow it is time to move onto “bigger and better things.” These times will be crucial years, introducing the graduate with today’s world. The class of 83 left a great deal of spirit and achievement which will remain forever in Highland High School. Highland High School will always be home to the class of ’83. This class will be sincerely missed, but the heart of the class of ’83 will always be in Highland High School “Home Sweeet Home.” ’83 was a class of high achievers, spectacular athletes, spirited individuals, and a class which was always ahead of their time. They made their school proud and now their parents. They were just one step above . . . and beyond. ALL RIGHT!! ' 83 graduates celebrate com¬ pleting four years at Highland High School. Graduation 101 A Theatre Company first Studs Terkel’s “Working” The newly named Theatre Com¬ pany performed its first musical. “Working” is a Studs Terkel novel that deals with sociology and con¬ tains various interviews of the work¬ ing force. The play was adapted by Steven Schwartz, who was known for his productions of Godspell and Pippin. The storyline follows a group of average workers such as: waitress¬ es, operators, steelworkers, etc- .... from 7 a.m. until the night shift. They describe their likes and dis¬ likes about their jobs. Mr. Larry Relaxing. The cast of “Working” takes a break in between the scenes. The cast mem¬ bers put a lot of effort into the production. Brechner, the new director, de¬ scribes the new musical as “some¬ thing unique that no other high school in Northwest Indiana has ever attempted before.” Brechner also commented on the set design: “The set is described as sort of an open concept and the actors act on the differnet levels of the platforms during the play. It is not the tradi¬ tional set. It is mostly a lighting con¬ cept. The lighting takes you from one platform to another. It casts the mood and the atmosphere of the play.” Doing His Thing. Larry Brechner. directing his first musical, comments enthusiastically on the actors ' performance. This type of musical is beneficial for everyone since the people “do not have to be great singers”, and it enables them to take part of a really musical production. Tha cast put long hours into memorizing lines and music from such contemporary artists like James Taylor. In the future, Brechner would like to see the speech members, music department, and Theatre company merge into the Performing Arts De¬ partment. Aside from this, members would be free to pursue other branches of the department. Mayer 102 Working Operator 448. Suzie Boling strikes her freeze in the tableau position.

It is the annual Pow¬ der Puff game. What does it take to win the game? Just ask anybody on an ath¬ letic team. Someone will most likely say there must be a team effort and a lot of determination. “I thought it would be all Rahs’ on the team but there were a lot of girls just like me, sort of in the middle.

First, learning how to throw a football and knowing which goal is the right one, was a new ex¬ perience for many of the girls who have never played the sport before.

Powder Puff 105 Trojanal develops new format Each new staff always begins with a fresh start on the school newspaper, and this year the TRO¬ JANAL made even greater strides toward competing in the world of modern journalism. Following a completely new size and format, the paper adopted a new attitude toward white space and the use of different size col¬ umns. Rick Karr, editor, did much to engineer the new look. More important to the life of the Trojanal, however, was the in¬ creased dedication to reporting im¬ portant things in the school. An is¬ sue on the drug and alcohol problem was run in March. This issue was written with the cooperation of Tri- City Mental Health Center and High¬ land’s own task force on Chemical Abuse. The Christmas issue, according to Dr. Philip Cartwright, Highland su¬ perintendent of schools, was “the best issue of a high school paper I’ve ever seen.” In this issue there was a good balance of feature and news copy, with articles which covered everything from good places to visit in Chicago over the Christmas break, the phenomenon of Cabbage Patch Fever, and an in-depth look at workout studios in the area. Under the direction of sports editor Jeff Girman Sports Illustrated and Omni were compared. News editors for this year’s Tro¬ janal were Kathy Funston and Shawna Deresch. Basil Adad served as editor of the Op-Ed page, while Lori Peterson and Theresa Kenders took care of the inside spread, often known as the double truck. Lori did an in-depth story on the Guardian Angels and their philosophy, while Theresa did an investigative report on toxic waste and its effect in the Calumet Region. Jeff Girman served as sports edi¬ tor, with a big assist from Ron Har¬ low. Ron interviewed Ron Kittle and Brian Bashnagel during the fall sea¬ son. Dawn Ciszar, as ad manager, con¬ tracted and took care of more ads than the Trojanal ever had. Bill Green served as chief photographer of the Trojanal, assisted by Jim Cox, Bob Weston, and Keith Brady. As with any newspaper, deadlines proved hectic, and with a new print¬ er sometimes headaches reached tremendous proportions, but this year’s Trojanal will go down in the annals of Highland High history as one of the most innovative.

Clubs are here for the actors and actresses, the homemakers, the sci¬ entists and the businesspeople, the list travels on and on. Joining a club can be well worth it! Over the 25 years of Highland High School’s existance, thousands of students have come through this school. Well over half have been in at least one club or organization. Over the years, teachers and counselors, have sponsored clubs to cater to the students’ interests. Involving yourself gives school a special meaning. It’s not just the atti¬ tude that school starts too early, or it offers nothing but homework and constant heartache, but that you have contributed to the success and history of this school. Whether it’s contributing in the making of this book or raising money for the many organizations. Clubs offer a special sense of accomplishment. This is true for the students who are involved in activities out of school such as martial arts, musical lessons, and church groups. Clubs in or out of school, make school more bearable. Long lasting friendships have been formed be¬ cause of clubs. Teachers and parents have watched clubs struggle to succeed, grow and prosper. Take advantage of the opportunities clubs have to offer. Join now and have fun. After all, isn’t that what it’s all about any¬ way? by Erin Okamoto 4} Getting Involved 109 ( 7w Sports Over 25 years Highland athletes have learned many things — among them the fact winning doesn ' t always have to involve winning a sports events. Winning with self discipline and dedication is important, and the very trying to succeed either alone or with a team makes any student athlete a winner in his or her own right. The many trophies and stars from Highland’s past show glory, but the character and spirit of its athletes show greater individual growth! Carrying on the tradition — Sports 111 Sports are something more than just physical ac¬ tivities. They are more than just now. They help you grow spiritually, mentally, and socially. These traits stay with you longer than most of your best memories might. Being in some type of sport helps build character. Learning to deal with respon¬ sibilities, people, victory, de¬ feat, and glory as well as hardships while in high school has a lot to do with the ways in which people deal with then in later life. Whether a freshman cheerleader or a first-string varsity basketball player, you work hard and strive for the best in yourself, your team, and your school. Take pride in it. Celebrate! Behind The Scenes! The cheerleaders add pep and en¬ courage spirit during the football and basketball games. Since they are given the opportunity, they dis¬ play the same abilities they showed while competing at camp. This year’s cheerleaders worked very hard. During the summer, on those hot sunny days, the Varsity and J.V. squads were practicing to¬ ward perfection. The two squads went to Rockford College to attend a cheerleading camp in which they J. V.

They also received many superior ribbons and spirit sticks that were only given to those squads with the most spirit and enthusiasm! Also, to add to their trophy collec¬ tion, the cheerleaders won First Place at an ICF cheerleading camp in November. There too, they brought back once again many rib¬ bons of superior rank.

All of the majorettes have gone far out of their way to show their talents. The majorettes first ap¬ pearance was at the begin¬ ning of the summer in the Fourth of July parade. After putting on an excellent show for the Highland residents, the girls went to Ball State University to show Muncie their unique rhythm! The girls received 80 rib¬ bons during the week of July 28-31, where they at¬ tended the Ball State Super Star Camp. After coming home with many new ideas, the girls prepared for the football halftime shows. The majorettes were very busy and worked extremely hard. In fact, they practiced every¬ day after school. The girls worked to perfect their rou¬ tines. Undoubtedly, the sponsor herself put in much hard work. Denise Rapin acted as the new Majorette sponsor this year. Under Denise’s di¬ rection, the girls earned many awards and honors. Lee Ann Stiglitz and Mary Kay Secviar were this years senior co-captains. This year, the girls not only attracted attention by their fine executions, but also by their new uniforms in which they earned by rais¬ ing money for the Majorette fund. We should be proud of our majorettes, afterall, they put in just as much time and ef¬ fort as the athletes do. The Majorette image is a very re¬ spected one, and they work hard to keep it that way!

The tri champions of the Lake Central Conference had a slow start, winning only one. of the first three games. The turning point of the season came when the Trojans defeated state- ranked Crown Point 17 14 in the last minute. Then, after losing to Lake Central came the biggest game of all: Mun¬ ster. It was a hard fought game with the Trojans win¬ ning in overtime 7-14. The Trojans finished the last three games with victories and proceeded to the cluster play-off. They lost on a missed extra point to the Mustangs. Mo team from Highland has ever finished with a 7 3 record, and it was the third team in Highland to place first in conference.

They had an overall dual meet record of 5-4 against tough regional competition. The team took the Confer¬ ence Championship award with a total team effort. Scott VanSenus won 1st place in high jump, jumping a new conference record of 780” 7 0”. He also won the long jump with the jump of 21’2”.

They lost once to Lake Central and once to Munster. In conference Champion¬ ships, the team went 10 2, earning the second place tro¬ phy. They lost to Munster by only a swing of the club. Senior Jeff Kosmoski was a Conference medalist for the second consecutive year. He was also a sectional medal¬ ist and won Highland Invita tional, both for the second consecutive year. He is now a member of the Ball State golf team. Coach Richardson looks to next year’s team with enthusiam. Though the re¬ turning team will be young, they do have a lot of Varsity experience. Coach Richard¬ son said, “Depth will be the key to success this year.” Returning lettermen will be Scott Rosko, Mike Miller, Andy Kerman, and Jim Wierman. Scott Rosko was a sixth place medalist in con¬ ference. The Trojans beat many of the area teams such as Grif¬ fith, Moll, Munster, Calumet, Crown Point, Morton, and many more. With lots of practice and the skill many of the team members pos¬ sess, next year’s team should be even better than this year’s.

Mary Wermuth led the way, with Karen Winiecki and Kelly Dunn right behind her, as it was most of the season. They also competed in and won the Lake Central Invitational for the 3rd year in a row. In Conference Champion¬ ships, the team was first. At Sectionals, they captured the title, though without Mary or Karen White. Karen was back running at Region¬ al, but not in the best of shape. Mary would be out for the rest of the season. The team placed 3rd at Re¬ gional and won the privi¬ lege to go to state, where they placed 13th. The boys’ team also had a good season, but the compe¬ tition was the toughest in the state, with 3 teams in their Conference in the top ten at state. To add to the hardships, second runner Joe Koz- moski was injured most of the season. Top runner, Jeff Bluth- man, led the team through the year with John Collette taking the second runner po sition. The team placed 4th in their Conference and went on to Sectionals. There they placed a respectable 6th. Both teams had fine sea sons of which they can be proud. Work together.

The noteworthy sopho¬ mores were Dan Stuckert- (Breast,Free), and Tom Reil ly(Diving). Coach Mike Boskovich said there are many promis¬ ing freshmen such as Brian Deleget(Free), Ray Lea (Free), and Bryan Smith- (Back). Coach Boskovich hopes to improve on his team’s fourth place finish at last year’s state meet. “Our team is improved over last year. The placing of the Medley Relay and Free Re¬ lay will determine our suc¬ cess at this year’s state meet.’’ The girls swim team had an excellent season this year. They won their second consecutive sectional title. The medley relay of Caro¬ lyn Horwath, Michelle Hor- wath, Renee Cseri, and Jean- nine Zak and the free relay of Monica Tillner, Diane Ross, Amy Lobodzinski, and Jeannine Zak placed in state. The girls’ hard work and dedication brought them to a dual meet record of 1 1 wins, 2 losses, and 1 tie. The girls also won their second consecutive conference title. Coach Brian Toweson said “There are many strong swimmers and divers return¬ ing next year.’’ He also look s forward to the team improv¬ ing even more and placing in the state meet next year.

To be good at what you do, you have to start at the bottom of the ladder and work your way up. This process may be quick, but for most, this is very slow and takes a lot of effort. The Freshmen and Junior Varsity members have to work to get experience to play in a Varsity game or the endurance to run a Varsity meet. Freshmen and J.V. members need a lot of encouragement to keep trying; but, though en¬ couragement is very important to them, they seem to get the least, not many people go to see them. We really need to recognize the Freshmen and J.V. as im¬ portant teams. They are our fu¬ ture.

Much of the team was young, but the tal¬ ent of every team member was overwhelming. The team will be losing 3 seniors next year. They are: Ralph Holden, Jim Baker, and Phil Terpstra. Terpstra leads the team in scoring with 15 points per game. Ba¬ ker is second with a close 14 points per game. Terpstra is also the leading rebounder of the team. There were many young players on the team. Ron Swart and Tony Terzarial were both sophomores who often started. Dave Wier- man, Larry Meding, and Mike Milausnic also contri¬ buted a great deal. The younger players of the team are looking forward to next year and the year after with high expectations. The team needed more playing time together at the beginning of the season. It was hard to adjust to playing together all at once. But the team soon got the hang of it and finished up with a final record of 13-7.

The gymnastics team had a great year. With the gui- dence of Coaches Howe, they finished up with a very respectable 13-2 final re¬ cord. They started out early placing 4th at the Glenbrook North High School Invita tional. State-ranked Michelle Sencaj helped the team along winning 1st place on bars and 1st all around. These performances by Michelle were not uncom¬ mon. Michelle placed 1st on bars in 11 of the 15 dual meets. In all around, she placed 1st in 8. She also placed first in Sectionals in both bars an all around. In regionals she was 1st on bars and 1st all around. She did comparatively well at Semi-State and State. Jodi Nordyke, Cari Clark, Lori Gilliland, and Christa Drost will be graduating with Michelle next year. They all will be missed. Also helping the team scores were Karen Winiecki, Amy Williams, Amy Klienschmidt, and Cathy Zurek. Everyone helped by chipping in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places many times along the way. Every one of the girls put a lot of effort and dedication into this year’s team. They worked together to beat such teams as Get ready!

Wrestjing - Grapplers do well The 1984 Wrestling team had a good season this year. Coach Renn led the team to a 9-9 final record. This year there were many individuals who did very well. Seniors Tim Mar¬ low, and Scott Kessler, Jim O’Donnell, and Rick Henson all had very fine seasons. In sectionals, in their own divisions, the boys did very well. Dave Powell placed 2nd. Jim Phillips placed 1st, Rich Wagaman captured 2nd place, Tom Puntillo also placed 2nd. O’Donnell placed 4th, Marlow came in first 1st, Kessler was 2nd, and Henson captured 1st in his division. In Regionals they did very well against competition as tough as Griffith, Munster, Moll, Warsaw, and Lafayette Jeff. Marlow and Henson both placed first in their weight divisions, and moved on to Semi-state. There, Mar¬ low captured 4th place and Rick Henson won 3rd. The team was up against very tough competition all season, but managed to pull through with a pretty good record. They beat Lowell, Warsaw, and our rivals Grif¬ fith. Returning lettermen will be Dave Powell, Jim Phil¬ lips, Rich Wagaman, and Tom Puntillo. With so many returning lettermen, next year should be even better than this year’s. They look forward to next year with a lot of enthusiasum. Practice makes perfect. Jim O’Donnell and Tim Marlow prac tice up for the big meet ahead. The 1984 Wrestling team has Good luck.

The girls’ and boys’ tennis teams did a very good job this year, having a lot of fun along the way. Both teams had All-Conference players. The 1983 boys’ tennis team ended the year with an excellent record of 12-7. They beat many regional teams such as Hammond High, Clark, Calumet, Low¬ ell, Morton, Andrean, Lake Central, Hobart and Griffith. The team went on to take a 3rd place trophy in Confer¬ ence Championships. Ralph Holden made All-Conference singles. The team also took first place in a 15-team High¬ land Doubles Invitational. In Sectionals, the team beat Lake Central 5-0, then beat River Forest 5-0. Then they lost to Crown Point 4 1. The 1982 83 girls’ tennis team also had a good sea¬ son. They finished the sea son with a 5-10 record. They beat Chesterton, Lowell, Ho¬ bart, Clark, and Crown Point, usually by a consider¬ able margine. The team then placed 6th in Conference, with Carrie Moynihan and Jane Filler making the All-Conference team doubles. In Sectionals, they beat Lowell 4-1 then lost to Crown Point 5-0. Working hard.

It can occur in many for ms of life, from competing with others for grades, or even competing with one s own past perfor¬ mance. There is also the rivalry of floats and classes, and the comparing of one school publication against another in the Calumet Region area. RIVALRY When is it all right? How far should rivalry go? How far is too far? Rivalry is a word used often. It is used in describing schools. It is also used in describing the tension be¬ tween people. Whether there is a dif¬ ference in people, schools or issues, is not important. The important thing to realize is that rivalry can go too far. It can hurt innocent people as well as the guilty. It should not be said that history plays no part in rivalry. Many rivals are passed down through centuries. The rival between families is dis¬ cussed as far back as Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. It is not a new subject to be discussed, but rather one that has been passed over. How many people really realize that rivalry is no game? Unfortunate¬ ly, not that many. There has be come extreme rivalry between schools. To them, it is more than just winning a game. It is the ability for them to use their rivalry. It be comes a game of life and death. The winner celebrates, while the loser cries silent tears. They feel that they have lost more than a game, they have lost their ability to fight. Rivalry is a major factor in the world. This is because there is a large strive for competition. Every¬ one wants to dominate over some¬ one. But does the need to dominate lead to rivalry? In most cases it does. Competition brings about a lot of anxiety plus concerns. Most peo pie will say that there is nothing wrong with a little competition. There is something wrong when a little competition leads to a lot of rivalry. Even rivalry among friends is not uncommon. There is always that bit of jealousy lurking behind rivalry. It might be over a person, or just about a problem that causes tension. Rivalry is a problem that should be closely examined. There is noth¬ ing wrong with being a bit jealous, angry, envious or of clean competi¬ tion. However, there is a very fine line between a little rivalry and much more than a little. Too often this is a line that is stepped over or forgotten. Even a little rivalry is a little too much. Cricket Reynolds When isn ' t it? People Highland High has been many things to many people over the years, but it has been the people themselves who ' ve made Highland what it is. From teachers and administrators to students who have gone into the service, business, and raising families, each individual has given something to Highland ' s spirit, and has taken part of it away. This year ' s faces carry on that spirit — each revealing an individual who makes Highland even richer! Mayer 148 People ip r fi UK Behind the Scenes with Interested Care KEEPING THE BOOKS.

JOHN TERPSTRA BURT MASEPOHL LARRY VASSAR AL PRENDERGAST HENRY BETCHEN PRESIDENT VICE PRESIDENT MEMBER MEMBER MEMBER 150 Administration Leading the Way No organization is any better than the people who manage it, and in the case of the Highland schools, this holds true as well. Highland has long had a reputa¬ tion of educational excellence, and under the leadership of Dr. Philip Cartwright and his assistant superin¬ tendents Mr. James Buckley and Mr. Clyde Sumner, the tradition has continued. Mr. Summer is retiring this year, after long years of service to the Highland system. He has been in charge of the financial manage¬ ment of the School Town, and has kept Highland not only financially stable, but forward-looking in its plans for future expenditures. Leading the high school, Mr. George Kurteff has also carried on a tone of striving for excellence. With his assistants Mr. Robert Kellam and Mr. Merlin Clinkenbeard, they are aware of new emphasis on greater learning and better preparation for the future in schools today, and all three administrators encourage both faculty and students to do their best. This year, several Highland high¬ lights came with help from the ad minstration. The renovated athletic outdoor facility was dedicated in the autumn, and both School Board members and administrators played a big part in making this improve¬ ment come true. Mrs. Kurteff and other High School administrators worked close¬ ly with Mr. Greg Petrin and his team for a successful North Central evalu¬ ation before Christmas. Evaluators from all over Indiana found Highland students proud of their school and its many facets, and the teaching staff was praised for its competence and interested dedication. Highland Leaders. Superintendent Dr. Philip Cartwright. Principal George Kurteff. and Assistnat Superintendent James Buckley are the key motivators in Highland s for¬ ward-moving school.

In fact, it is hard to distinguish the students from him when they are all bundled up in their ski gear. Highland has an excellent group of teachers. They are a united staff which only object is to benefit the student. The difference between any teacher and a Highland teacher is that a Highland teacher is more than an instructor • they are a friend!!

Yes, the loyal teachers of Highland are always willing to lend a helping hand to the students. However, this help goes beyond the classroom. Many of the teachers act as class spon¬ sors, and the librarians participate in sponsoring as well. Mr. Kaminski is currently sponsoring the class of “85,” and Mr. Richardson has been helping the class of “84“ through all of their four years. Mrs. Erwin has taken the sophomore class to lend a hand. The faculty is more than willing to give as much of themselves as possible to the students. It isn’t hard to notice a teacher is always putting in extra hours. Take a look around after school the students hurry to make the bus, but the teach¬ er’s day doesn’t end at 3:00. The teachers at Highland add much spirit and enthusiasm into the school. The staff does their best to make school an appealing place. Much of the extra work of the facul¬ ty goes unnoticed by the students. They think it is all part of the teacher’s job that they have to put in all those extra hours. The teacher acts as a friend to the student. One example of this is the athletic staff. Just look at all the coaches after school. Mrs. Howe puts in endless hours with the gymnasts. Her husband is very involved with the coaching also. The football coaches spend part of the summer working with the team. Then there are the club sponsors who spend many hours helping their club. By providing these extra activities, school becomes not only a place of learning, but a place to learn to have fun while learning. Clubs thank the sponsors, for pro¬ viding a place for a student to feel he “Belongs”. Looking Good! Athletic Director Bob Wake field braves August heat to check football field improvements. Good News. Mr. John Gianotti gives a good report to the moth er of one of his students during Open House. • Faculty 155 Seniors . . . Seniors . . . Seniors.

Seniors . . . Bearss — Seniors . . Blevins Pressure from our How far can someone be pushed? How far can this go? Peer pressure is and always will be a major problem. Teens are pres¬ sured by friends or ri¬ vals. The only solution is not to subject oneself to this problem. However, some will find that this problem grips them and they find themselves at the breaking point. Subjecting oneself to peer pressure is not a surprise. Friends tend to make a person feel like he is the only one not peers doing “it”. They are there one minute and the next minute, they have vanished. Rivals are those who don’t even care about the out¬ come; just the reason. Peer pressure caused more than damaged feel¬ ings. The end doesn’t justify the means. More and more students find themselves victims of bad circumstances be¬ cause of peer pressure. The outcome is always the same; another bad situation for a kid in a bad cause.

This time is a transformation into adult¬ hood which can be cruel and painful. Crying to mom and dad about every problem makes some teens uncomfortable and that t hey can’t handle their own problems. To deal with this unpre dictable time takes time, but in the end, teens would have learned some¬ thing about the real world and about themselves. All it would take is a little time to sort out life and put things back in an adult place.

This brings with it quite a few advan¬ tages the most obvious is that you are looked up to by the entire school. Graduation in May brings with it gifts from relatives and the excite¬ ment of grad parties. Of course there are some problems, too. As a Sen¬ ior, Great pressure is put on an individual to pro¬ vide a good example for the balance of the stu¬ dent body. Graduation carries with it extensive preparation for the par¬ ties, announcements, and Cap Gown. Hap¬ pily, however, these tri¬ als and tribulations are far outweighted by the exaultation and anticipa tion of becoming Seniors (and getting to come to school every hour of ev¬ ery day for the full year.)

But working can also be a help after you leave high school. While you are working you are probably saving for your college education. Whether you are going to be a doctor or a lawyer, or even a football player they are all pro¬ fessions and require a college edu¬ cation. After a long and tiring day of tests and lectures, you can’t bare the thought of going to work for another six or more hours. Wheth¬ er you work at a drugstore, a hos¬ pital, or a fast-food restaurant, you are preparing yourself for the life that is ahead of you. . . Seniors . . . Seniors . . . Seniors . . .

How will these young adults handle this new freedom? Gradually parents are real izing their child is not a child any more. Their children are now paying taxes, learning how to handle their own money, and voting. Learning how to handle their own money may be the toughest of them all because, it pepares them for when they are ready to move out on their own. Voting is another big step to growing up. That is a very big decision, and it should not be taken lightly. There are decisions to be made in everyday living and taking one step at a time to learn and ab¬ sorb is one of the tricks to survival. Seniors . . . Seniors . . .

The day when getting up at 6:00 to finish homework has end¬ ed .. . has it? Many sen¬ iors will be preparing to enter college this fall. Leaving home and start¬ ing a new life will be met with excitement and fear. There is more pressure on young adults today. For example, financially, many teens will have to pay their way through col¬ lege by working. However, there must be a time where a person can be alone or to social¬ ize with his friends and forget any past worries. Brad Toth Tony Toweson Liz Trkulja Jeff Tyron Liz Trytek Seniors . . .

As a junior, there are many things to think about before diving in as a senior. For instance, if one is planning on attending college, the S.A.T. and other college entrance exams are extremely important in order to get accepted in any college. Everyone thinks senior year is the easiest and most enjoyable year throughout high school, but it is also one of the hardest! Studying is a necessity, and it’s a time when one makes a lot of big decisions toward the future. Junior year is a fun time because there are many exciting things to do besides worrying about the future to a great extent. There’s the junior prom which the Junior Class holds annually, and also, there are a lot more privileges given to juniors compared to other underclassmen. Juniors . . . Juniors . . . Juniors . . .

A license and car mean a lot to teenagers because it en¬ ables them to do so much more than previously possible. No longer are they limited to their parents or friends as a means of transportation. But, with such added freedom comes added responsibility. Such items as car insurance and gas will often leave even the working teen with an empty pocket. This sudden need of money for gas and insurance pay¬ ments often causes many students to take up a job or increase their hours of work. Though this price is heavy to pay, the ability to come and go as you please makes it well worth the while. Juniors . . . Juniors . . . Juniors . . . Juniors .

A student no longer has to rely on one’s own parents to get from one place to another. The world of driving is now open to the student who possesses a license. But, the student must also be cautious and wise to the rules of the road in order to keep peace with the driving world. Driving is a thing that is a seri¬ ous thing and one the police depart¬ ment keeps the watchful eye on. Not that the town is out to get the student with the license; but, only the wishes of safe journeys. 176 Juniors Lynette Mravca, Sharon Mrzlock, Mike Mayden, Mike McCaig, Lora McCrea, Kathy McGuckin, Doug McRo- berts, Nancy McWilliams, Tom Medina, Kim Messmer, Jack Micheals, Rich Mickow, Trish Mihalik, Phil Mikler Sandy Mikula, Mitch Mi- leusnic, Dave Miller, Dean Miller, Mike Miller, Shannon Miller, Jon Mur phy Lenore Murovic, Kara Nackman, Renee Na¬ varro, Keefe Norman, Ka ren Norris, Dan Novosel, Cheryl Nuss Jorie O’Conner, Jim Ohl- strom, Charlie Olson, Dom Ortiz, Jean Pae, Kent Pappas, Audrey Paucak Annemarie Paulauski, Tim Pawlak, Patsy Paw- losky, Lisa Payne, Jeff Pelot, Fred Pera, Wally Perko Lori Peterson, Brian Phil¬ lips, Lisa Pierchala, Laura Pleasant, Rose Plys, Dana Pocci, Belinda Poole Kris Popka, Dave Po- testa, Ralph Potesta, Pau¬ la Pramuk, Dina Prayzner, Sally Purvis, Jackie Quigley Andy Raab, Shelly Race, Nick Radencich, Brian Radzinski, Renee Rankin, John Ratkay, Jennifer Ray Juniors 177 Chris Reed, Dave Reich- muth, Angie Renfroe, Lynette Repking, Tammy Rhyne, Becky Rivich, Keith Roberts Carrie Robison, Greg Rob¬ inson, Nancy Robinson, Scott Rosko, Jim Ross, Dave Routh, Sharon Ruhs Chris Ruse.

Juniors . . . Juniors Reed- Juniors -Turner Give Your All Year after year and game after game Highland students come out to the games to support their teams. This is done by giving the players patience, enthusiasm, and understanding. Parents play a large role in the stands. Many give up their own evenings to run their players to and from practice and cheer them on at all the games. Even though many are overlooked and taken advantage of for their kindness and le¬ niency for late hours of practice. They are appreciated for it but seldom thanked. Many students participate in more than one sport and still manage to make time to cheer on a team they do not participate in. They are the rowdies who sit in the top back rows and seem to cheer louder than the lettergirls and the cheerblock put to¬ gether. Some people feel they are rude and others wish there was more room to sit.

Students become eligible to serve as aides in a variety of places throughout the school. There is al¬ ways the opportunity to be a teach¬ er’s aide, but there are also places to assist in such varied areas as the nurse’s office, the main office, the library, attendance, and other areas such as the audio-visual assistants. School is more than classes and books, and for the students who get involved with the behind the scenes activities of Highland High, there is a good chance to learn responsibility and the fine art of getting along with many different types of people. There is also a lot of pride in accom¬ plishing some good work fora worth¬ while cause. Helping. Getting some paper work together in the office are sophomores Rhonda Deford and Melinda Humphrey.

Sophomores . . Gil Heminger RETURNING Returning to school for the sopho¬ more year is such a nice feeling. Opposed to freshman year, there is now a sense of belonging. Many people begin to realize how fast high school goes by. Last year it seemed like ages before senior year would arrive. Now it is swifty ap¬ proaching. This is the year many people get their first job and a feeling of being “grown-up” and no longer being chil¬ dren develops. There are also many pressures in being a sophomore. Classes become harder, more is ex¬ pected, many tough decisions must be made, and there is more responsi¬ bility. Getting There. Sophomore year brings long¬ er assignments and tougher classes, as Pat Hyland can prove.

Being a friend means something different to everyone who is a friend. To some it may be lending money. To someone else it may mean lending an ear. But friendship is much more than that. It’s having someone to talk to, or having someone to listen to. It’s someone who will sit up with you when you thought that special guy didn’t even noti ce you, and someone who celebrates with you when that special someone asks you out on a date. Years from now we’ll look back and think of all the good and bad times we shared with our friends and finally realize that without those special friends we probably wouldn’t have made it through. Karen Nagy It Works! Having friends over to share good times is important to any teen’s life, accord¬ ing to Janet Sowinski. Paul Rodgers, Susan Rossi, Rick Rusthoven, Kelly Ryan, Joann Saczawa.

Ken Smith Rogers ——— Take time to celebrate There’s no doubt any teenager’s life has many stressful times, and the country’s suicide rate attests to the fact too many young people fi¬ nally decide they cannot live up to all the pressures and demands put on them. The answer? It lies in many direc¬ tions, but one certainly is the ability to take time out periodically to cele¬ brate! Even with tests, pressures, and deadlines, there are many things to enjoy. There are good friends and someone who cares; there are the little joys of long week ends and short homework assign¬ ments, and the simple beauty of a fall day or watching an especially nice sunset. Who not? Sometimes just climbing a tree to get a better view of the world helps, says Courtney Courtice.

Having people to help is always pick up a diploma, high school students are good, but the best growing comes when we asked to make many important decisions can decide by ourselves! Finding answers is never easy What does one do when one has to choose between one thing and an other? These two things are both things she is unsure about, yet two things she wants. She wants to see other people. If she sees other people she will loose something that she has had for the past year. It has become a habit. Good or bad, she doesn’t know. This person has been very special to her. A lot has been shared. Should it be thrown away? If she keeps holding on will she regret it? It’s high school! “The best times of ones life.” Should it all be shared with one person and only one? This question has been pondered over. No solution comes easily, but with good friends and looking at life hon¬ estly, answers can and do come. Jill Britton Guy Crundwell, Chris Cun¬ ningham.

Drummond — ' Golec Sassoning Life moves on, and every fresh¬ man can look forward to moving on to sophomore year. And though the class may change, there are always some con¬ stants in the lives of any teenager. Current fashions are always a big expense, yet a way many young people help themselves feel com¬ fortable in school. Whether i t’s Van¬ derbilts, Sassons, or some of the la¬ test Cheryl Tiegs styles, teens spend a great deal of allowances and baby¬ sitting money to keep in style. Freshmen or seniors, clothes are still important in the teen years. It’s New! Laura Bearss knows how good it feels to wear a new top.

Then the first day comes, teachers and new classmates are met, and soon the first day jitters are a mem¬ ory. It happens every year, and every year there are new faces to walk through the halls of Highland for the first time. The building seems a maze, and with classrooms spread over so large an area, it often takes a track star to find the new rooms in time before class starts. Soon, however, everything set¬ tles. Then this year’s freshmen smile, wondering how it will be to look at all those new people walking into school next year. Yes, all jitters go away! Piece Of Cake!

After months of talk and preparation, the MorthCentral Evaluation Committee arrived at Highland to evaluate the school. For three consecutive days, the members of the evaluation committee sat in and observed classes, interviewed students and made recommondations. For months before, the staff separated into committees to prepare for the evaluation. For the Seniors who took the PSAT last year, as juniors, the results were very promising for six Highland students. The National Merit Scholarship semi finalists are Ron and Mary Pyke, Rick Karr, Joe Pawlowski, John Skrentny and Paul Steinke. These students qualified by having their PSAT scores be higher than 99% of all other scores in the nation. Cindy Toth, Freshman, was appointed by Governor Ore, to The Youth Research Council to the Advisory Board on Children, Youth and Families. Once a month Cindy goes to Indianapolis to meet with the other fifteen appointees to discuss ways of improving family relationships. A new organization has formed this year. The Auxilary Corps, sponsored by Melissa Sharp, marches at home football games during halftime. The group is very versatile, they dance, work with flags and hope to work with swords and streamers in the future. The school year of 83-84 has been a successful one. A lot was accomplished and achieved. Scholarships were won, appointments were given, our school was evaluated. Things have changed for the better. AUXILARY CORPS: 1st Row: D. Spataro, L.

Showing these feel¬ ings is extremely hard for some peo¬ ple but for others it is difficult to surpress them. Dealing with people on an everyday basis takes a lot of patience. Coping with these emo¬ tions takes energy out an individual. CARING TAKES A LOT Cheerleaders show they care like Sharon Paluga and Sue Weldon. GERMAN HONOR SOCIETY Mary Wermuth.

When it comes down to it you really have to care or else you wouldn’t bother. If it gives happi¬ ness to some it makes it all worth while to others. This is why some people like to entertain such as rock stars and comedians. Some like to care in another way like helping. Doctors are a good example of this. After all it’s only human! A Chance To Meet The Stars One of the most hottest stars. Michael Jackson, takes time to be with his fans. Caring About Others Darrin Laszlo plays music to please himself and others who like to like to listen to him play. This is one way to show you care. 9 Caring 225 1?
