Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1982 volume:

If. . ' The Class of ’82 dedicates this yearbook to our principal, mr. Robert Gilpin Mr. Gilpin received his bachelors degree from Eastern Il- ii lois University in 1957. At EIU, Mr. Gilpin was very active thletically. He participated in football four years, track our years, and wrestling two years. Mr. Gilpin then went tn to earn a masters degree in administration and industri- i I arts. Mr. Gilpin began teaching in Newman in industrial arts. lso, he coached football, basketball, and track. After three years, Mr. Gilpin was appointed principal of the school. Mr. Gilpin came to Homer High School in 1966 as prin- cipal. Over the sixteen years he has been as H.H.S., some changes have taken place. The more liberal attitudes of society have been reflected in Homer by the disbanding of a dress code, the developement of girls' athletics, and i having more students working at jobs, among other things. Mr. Gilpin has two sons; Gary age twenty-three and Brent age twenty. Mrs. Gilpin is a court reporter. Their son Gary is a diesel mechanic and welder. Brent is ittending the University of Arizona. Mr. Gilpin's hobbies and interests include hunting, fish- ii ng, and woodworking. Mr. Gilpin has served Homer High School very well in zhe sixteen years he has been here. This dedication is to thank him for the work he has done in Homer and to wish him tbe best of luck in his future endeavors. Mr. and Mrs. Bob Gilpin at prom. The Sun Grows Brighter The sun rose on that first fall day. Some of us not really wanting to stay. Some of us crying at our mothers' side. Some of us quiet and trying to hide. But things got brighter along the way. The sun shining upon us with its cheerful ray. We became friends through thick and through thin. We grew up together—outside and in. Now the sun will soon set and it seems all is done. But in reality ... it has just begun!

But when it's passed, time's left its mark. Unchangeable and permanent, disappearing into the dark. Now we see time marked by a glorious sunrise representing the years till we become wise. Destiny is for our making, not written in the skies. Our choices for tomorrow will be guided by our past. Challenging and new, announcing for ourselves at last.

I expect you to continue these standards as you represent yourself, your family, your school, and the community of Homer. Many times you will face difficult decisions and choices in your life, but always your school, and the community of Homer. Many times you will face difficult decisions and choices in your life, but always remember to base these deci- sions on the proper moral well being of ail those con- cerned. Do not allow yourself to make selfish, narrow- minded choices, which are only for your own personal benefit. Please accept a special thanks from me to each of you for your help and cooperation during the past six- teen years I have been Principal here at Homer. I take with me many fond memories of students, faculty, staff, and parents, and the friends I have made in Homer. Good luck in the future!

This year's varsity team had 2 seniors, 10 juniors, 4 sophomores, and 10 freshmen. The season end- ed for the Panthers with a 2-4 record in the newly formed East Okaw Conference.

The Homer Panthers have just a good as chance as anyone to walk away with that first conference title.

The Panthers also upset Villa Grove by 2 points in the first game of the Regional basketball tournament, but later lost to St. Joe.

Boys’ Hurdling through Track another Season The track team this year fared well, although they suf- fered from lack of members. The team's biggest thrill was finishing 3rd in the East Okaw Conference Meet at Oakland. The season's other big event was running over ABL 83-54 in their only dual meet of the year. The J.V. team consisted of four members and they did pretty well, receiving one 1st in the Fresh-Soph Conference meet, and one 1st at the Chrisman Fresh-Soph Invite. Although they did not do well in the County or District meets, they gained added ex- perience and should be competative for the conference title next year. Girls’ Track Running to the Finish This year track was certainly enjoyable. Even though our records don't show it, we tried hard and did well. In most of the meets we were really close. We gained many Freshmen and the future looks bright for Homer Girls' Track.

Each day was spent either wearing sunglasses, hats, maroon and gold, or carrying stuffed ani- mals, and dressing up in 50's out- fits. For the entire week classes worked hard on their halls and floats. The bon fire was held Thursday night with the players and cheerleaders adding a bit of sparkle to the event. The pep as- sembly on Friday, Sept. 25, was loads of laughs, with the teachers giving their skit Snowmaroon and the 7 Dorks. Also, it was an- nounced Seniors received 1st on the hall decorations. (Juniors 2nd, Sophomores 3rd, Freshmen 4th) Following the assembly was the Homecoming Parade. That night Homer lost to ABL. The Sopho- mores received a 1st for their float while the Seniors and Juniors tied for 2nd. The dance was held right after the game with The Nightrider Band providing the en- tertainment. Lora Jean Reed and Kevin Copass were crowned Queen and King at the coronation ceremony. It was an eventful night that ended another special Home- week!!! I Maroon and Gold Day 2. HAT Day 3.

Practice began August 17 with the Flags twirling for three hours in the morning and the band sweating for six hours in the afternoon. They placed second in the Tuscola Old Fashioned Days Parade (winning $150); third in the Dwight Ftarvest Days Parade and first in Class D field competition (win- ning $100); seventh in the U of I Marching Band Parade; third in the Illinois Wesleyan University Homecoming Parade (winning $75); and third in the ISU Marching Band Field Competition.

We performed a half- time routine to Rock Around the Clock with the band at Home- coming for the first time. In No- vember the squad had an upset when Mrs. Toth, our sponsor for 4 years moved. Mrs. Woonter did a fine job taking her place. We did many routines during the year which everyone liked. Good Luck in the years to come.

At each meeting a class worked together to provide typical refreshments such as guacomole, flan, and Mexican or- ange candies. We had several guests come to our meetings. Sra. Martorell came to tell us about the differences she had noticed in the U.S.A. and her life in Mollorca, Spain. Sra. Milagros Tyler came to tell us of Christmas and New Year activities and customs in the Dominican Re- public. For this meeting, members from Spanish I baked and brought a variety of Christmas cookies and candles from Spain and Latin America. Lastly, our annual event, a taco party, was held in May. All Span- ish students were invited to come and bring food for our Comida Mexicana. 82 Row 1: Brenda Freemen, Loriann Dillman, Angela Mattox, April Gritten, Kelly Jones, Kathy Bange.

Chorus This year's Senior Chorus has been made up of twenty girls who have en- joyed singing and performing at the various concerts. Our first concert, a Christmas program, was Dec. 16. Among several selections of Christmas music, the Chorus, accompanied by the Senior Band, presented the “Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah. Follow- ing the High School Music contest, we had a Pre-Spring concert on March 15, to have some of the students perform their contest music. Our final concert was May 10.

The Ensemble took one selection to the High School Music Contest on March 6, and received a superior rating. They wore their medals at the March 15 concert. 85 Row 1: lane Carrington, Brenda Freeman, Holly Craver, Gena Campbell, Kathy Bange, Theresa Clark, Jamie Krukewitt, Beth Canaday.

The concert season began with the Annual Christmas Concert on Dec. 16. A special part of the program was a combined band chorus performance of the Hallelujah Chorus by Handel. The band also welcomed the arri- val of Santa into Homer by play- ing Christmas carols at the City Building. On March 15, the band per- formed for the March Music Con- cert, which featured students who had participated in Solo Ensemble Contest. Jane Carrington, played her clarinet solo and received a standing ovation for her perfor- mance. Mrs. Mary Ann Kilian was also honored for all of her hard work as an accompanist for solos ensembles. One selection from the concert, Riffin' the Blues, featured Kerry Wienke, Jane Carrington, and Janet Collins in solos. The final spring concert was held on May 10, and it featured a performance of selections from the musical Annie. The high school concert band was small in size, with only twen- ty-five members, but they were able to perform very musically this year. 86 Row 1: Patty Carter, Kim Howell, Bridgit Dable, Mrs. Murphy, Andy Shreeves, Loriann Dillman Row 2: Jamie Krukewitt, Beth Canaday, Kris Kasper, Angela Mattox.

The August days waned to winter's cold— rows of desks, stacks of books, bits of notes The dark day lightened as the spring sun shone, marching band, yelling fans, breathing dances The school's halls quieted as free June ap- peared— empty lockers, signed diplomas, fulfilled year. The sun set rosy on the plains that day— new promises, new goals, new priviledges. English IIB, second Row 1: Gwen Spencer, Shelly Glenn, Andrea Myers.
