I gm I I I I I I The year opened with a new look, a fresh spirit and a brighter outlook I From the pompery of the prom to the regular routines of each day, there was never a dull moment in students' lives. Games 50 I Sports played a major role as records were broken, titles were won and tro- phies were overfilling display cases. Inside 98 I High scholastic drive and improved facilities set our academics apart from Mugs 130 I The best of times came often as stu- dents faced the year with class and the unity needed to make the year work.

So were hopes and memories. And even stomachs were ful- filled. The only thing that could have fulfilled so much in so many ways was Homecoming 1980.

But the fun didn't stop there as girls took their dates to the Sadie Hawkins dance that night, 50's style, sponsored by the Student Government. With only a half day sched- uled, seniors dubbed Tuesday senior skip day. But while the seniors were skipping the punk rockers were rocking. Crazy glasses, wild hair styles, skinny ties, and safety pins were the popular attire for Punk Ftock Day. The Lone Flanger and Tonto would have been proud Wednesday as Cowboy and Indian Day brought the wild- west to the midwest. Cowboy hats, spurs, and Pocahontas look-a-likes roamed the halls. Cowboys and Indians prob- ably didn't get the chance to have banana splits very often, but over 100 Dairy Queen fans had the chance Wednesday night to chow down on a trough full of them in the cafe- teria. Peace, love, joy and spirit enhanced Thursday as the 60's suddenly returned. Long hair, sandals and mini skirts aroused everyone's attention on Hippie Day. Groovy, hip and cool were hot terms in the 60's, but something that was even hotter on Thursday was the traditional bonfire. As spir- its fired up that night you prob- ably couldn't have found a more spirited bunch as every- one awaited the burning of the class dummies Knot students, mind youl. But before the bon- fire, a Campus Life Burger Bash was held at the conser- vation building. Besides eat- ing marshmellows and ham- burgers, students gave it all they had in games of arm wrestling. Another tradition was Blue and Gold Day on Friday. And to add more spirit, it was Hat Day too. Everything from gold socks to Mickey Mouse hats were worn. Friday was full of surprises, but everyone knew about the pep session that was scheduled at around 1:50 p.m. Who could forget the pies in the faces of the three most well liked teachers?

Everyone expected a great Homecoming, but what they got was more than they had bargained for. Multi-colored balloons enhanced the first touchdown by the Spartans. Now it was time for another group of Spartans, the march- ing ones. They seemed almost Sky-High perfectasthey got everyone's attention at halftime with their state contest performance. It seemed the excitement and perfection couldn't be stopped. With cartoons as the theme for the floats, the fresh- men led the parade with the cartoon B.C. Right behind were the sophomores with Su- perman, and the juniors with Popeye. But the seniors took first place honors with their Spartan Snoopy and DeKalb Baron float. Following the floats, six ner- vous girls and their escorts awaited the decision for the announcement of the queen. The girls on the court were seniors Jeana Tenerelli, Cathy McCracken, Leslie Riedel, Pepper Bromelmeier, Molly f' FIT' 'll W1 19 N Q.: l bf . R 4 O'Hara and Lisa Pequignot. The decision was final, and es- corted in a Silver Anniversary Corvette, Jeana Tenerelli showed all the qualities of a true Homecoming queen. Comments like What hap- pened?, Who's the wise guy? , and cheers from the DeKalb team were heard. Sud- denly the reason was found. Fireworks! Who would have thought? For 15 minutes it was another 4th of July, complete with a finale and all. But Home- coming didn't end there. After- wards there was a dance, and Pizza Hut pizza to go along. Homecoming really didn't stop there, as one may have thought. The memory of the 1980-81 Homecoming will al- ways linger in the back of Is someone cruisin' for a bruisin?

But it wasn't the Oak- land Raiders against the Philadelphia Eagles in the Su- perbowl, it was the juniors against the seniors in a tradi- tional game of Powderpuff football. Any player on one of the teams might remember all the bad aspects of participating, Girls! Girls! Girls! Fill in varsity cheerleaders Mike Kearney and Kip Grosenick shout to the team. such as breakdowns, high knees, bear crawls or jumping jacks. Practices may have been the most painful but they turned out to be the most im- portant. The teams ended up practicing in barns, on football fields, after school, before go- ing to work and on their days off. Mistakes like not under- standing the punt return or fall- ing for the fakes during the game made both teams feel like they weren't all together. They might not have been all together but both teams had just as much incentive. Al- though the juniors had over 70 girls signed up to play and the seniors only 32, the class of '81 kept the tradition of being number one. This isn't to say it was an easy victory. It was a hard fought one, and a score of 20-12 was the end result. Two touchdowns by senior Lisa Pequignot and one by Pepper Bromelmeier set the pace for the champs. But touchdowns byjuniors Rhonda Schwartz and Julie Johnstone helped the juniors break their barrier. Speaking of incentive, someone else with just as much were the coaches. They went crazy trying to get the idea of football across to their players. Senior coaches Tom Butowicz, Tim Carstens, Brad Pease, Andy Knowles, Greg Wehling, Steve Lake and Tony Kuehner had the experience, but the junior coaches, Rick Foltz, Paul Davis, Steve Reed, Scott Coleman, Tracy Foster and Greg Must, had the deter- mination of wanting to beat the seniors and make history once again. Let's not forget our own var- sity cheerleaders. The unreal seniors, Kip Grosenick, Mike Kearney and Steve Gidley. took over for this game even though they had trouble re- membering the cheers. lt was a crazy night alright! Girls playing football and guys dressed as girls. What's really hard to believe is the fact that while everyone was getting pushed around, acquiring bruises, slipping in the wet grass and trying to figure out what to do next, they were all having a great time.- I Touchdown!

Being dragged across your front yard in a for- mal or tux was really a hassle. Next it was off to an elegant restaurant. The Takaoka, Mountain Jack's, The Sum- mit Club and The Wharf were all popular eating places for this special evening out. Upon arrival to the Embas- sy, freshmen dressed in tails acted as doormen.

No one could believe these were the same students who came to school in jeans. Music provided by the band Amethyst kept everyone dancing to soft rock, jazz, country and ballroom tunes. Even Mr. Jim Manak and Mr. Mike Fitsko couIdn't keep off the dance floor all evening. The coronation of the queen was an exciting moment for all, especially for the seven junior nominees, Lisat Shoppell, Mary Jo Koch, Jana Martin, Lori Gladieux, Angie Castaldi, Laura Finch and Sherri Krider. Chosen by her classmates, Prom Queen Sherri Krider and her court took to the dance floor with their escorts for the court's dance. But the excitement didn't stop there. The after prom, held at Shiloh Reception Hall, let everyone relax alittle. Stu- dents danced to the music of Stryder . Some may have still been going strong after this, and continued on to breakfast at a restaurant or a person's house.

The graduating class of '81 will always leave an impres- sion on the school. They brought top honor students, sport champs, and the most creative individuals with them. With Valedictorian Dave Frey and Salutatorian Paul Kitaka speaking on behalf of the class, memories of favorite teachers, friends, sport cham- pionships, proms and aca- demic excellence throughout the four years rang in every- one's mind as special. These were special memo- ries and so was this gradu- ation, because this year it took place at the Foellinger Outdoor Theatre in Franke Park. Backstage sat 242 ner- vous, happy seniors adjusting I Y W-I 3 their tassles and saying their last goodbyes to friends. Short sentences like this is it , or we did it , filled the air backstage before the big mo- ment at 8:00. Graduate Mary Hause stated, I can't believe we're actually graduating! Graduation was a happy moment, even if you did see some people shedding a few tears. Senior Elaine Horstman said after graduating, I wish I'd stop crying, but I can't. Getting prepared for gradu- ation itself was just as impor- tant. There was the practice in the auditorium, where you wound up next to the person you've had your locker next to since kindergarten. Next there was a senior breakfast in the cafeteria. Hopefully no loose marbles came rolling your way this time!

Sure, active groups such as the cheerleaders and the band motivated students, but without the student body as a whole, spirit would never have been established. Spirit week, pep sessions and activity periods through- out the year boosted school spirit, but that wasn't always enough. Junior Brenda Bridge said, Looking across the court and seeing a huge cheerblock makes you feel terrible-especially if your school doesn't have one! A lot of students didn't want to get involved, or they just didn't care about school pride. But, those who did dress up for spirit week, attend sporting events, attend pep sessions or contribute a part of them- selves to the school, all added a special touch. The speech team, Student Government, performing arts, Campus Life, and sports kept many involved. But stated ju- nior Kim Boroff, We really need some active clubs, then people who normally don't get involved wouIdl Even though it took a big win to get some people up and out to attend home basketball and football games, we managed to give our Spartans the ap- plause they needed to move on. But, replied senior Mary Derheimer, Sometimes the spirit wasn't what it should have been. We really did 'whomp' a lot. But it never could have been done without the spirit of loyal students.- 'Jf fl ax!-4 -- L That's the way to go!

This addictive quality is known as pep. And we sure had a lot of it. Commented senior Bob Roebuck, There seemed to be even more pep after the basketball section- als. Pep came in every shape and size imaginable. The big- gestgroup wasthe band.They practiced every day just to make us feel peppy at the home basketball and football games. Don't forget the pep sessions either. The feeling never would have been the same without them playing Another One Bitesthe Dust, or our school song. The cheerleaders helped make everyone feel peppy too. And in a way they were the leaders of all the pep. Re- plied senior varsity captain Cathy McCracken, lt's really hard to get everyone peppy, and it's even harder to keep t 1 Jumping for joy!

These peppy leaders arranged pep ses- sions, spirit weeks and cheered us on to victories. Walking through the crowd- ed halls, it wasn't hard to see all the pep. Decorated halls and lockers in blue and gold, dressing up for spirit week or filling the stands during Friday night games and tournaments were the most popular ways of showing pep. Even the little things like buying a school li- cense plate or pencil from the Back Room brought pep out- side the school. But, stated senior Al Pierce, The school's spirit seems to wear off during the spring when spring fever hits everyone. There were different ways of showing pep but the easiest way was to attend a pep ses- sion. Just why do you think they're called pep sessions anyway? But, replied senior Sue Stinnett, There are a lot of kids who show pep, but then there are the ones who don't even go to the pep sessions. And senior Cheryl Scott add- er .SML ed, The biggest problem with the pep sessions is that they don't honor all the sports equally. Pep was the only thing that kept us from falling asleep in class or looking forward to that big test, and without it, coming to school every day never would have been the same.- ,IT What great voices!

Did you wear green today? Boo! Will you be my valentine? Happy New Year! We've all heard and said these sayings and they sure brought spirit into the school, but it wasn't the usual kind of school spirit. lt was holiday spirit. Every month brought with it some sort of holiday, and with holiday came spirit. One month that raised everyone's spirits was December, the Christmas month! And along with Christmas came every- one's New Year's resolutions. The Christmas Can Drive and Adopt-A-Child program brought out the season's true meaning, and all students be- gan to show their feelings about what Christmas really meant. Sweethearts, this was your month! February! Valentine's lt'sforagood cause.HeIpingto wrap Fighting Irish!

Giving a valen- tine, a heart shaped box of candy or flowers to your sweety, best friend or family member to show how much Counting chemistry cans. Junior Pete Lennington puts all his cans in order. Chemistry classes even had a contest among themselves you really cared wasn't unusu- al. And speaking of flowers, the carnation sale sponsored by the Student Government, sold over 1000 carnations. Even the seemingly unim- portant holidays brought out student's spirit. On Saint Pa- trick's Day, for example, you saw lots of green in the hall- ways. Hopefully you didn't get pinched! And every year the famous Shamrock stickers ap- peared mysteriously all over lockers, doors and walls. Who did this? Irish senior Molly Sin- gleton was often figured to be one of the culprits. Who could forget Thanks- giving? The time to chow down! Plus we got two school days off! The Home Econom- ics classes even prepared a special turkey feast to cele- brate the occasion. Without holiday spirit to lift us when there really wasn't enough school spirit around, there wouldn't have been any- thing. So we can feel lucky we were in school for some of them.- N I I ,ef All stretched out!

Springing ut 0 Classrooms We all felt it. We all caught it. And there was no getting away from it. Spring fever was the most contagious disease around in '81. Teachers and students alike felt the effects. And you knew to watch out if you came down with these symptoms: putting off homework, skip- ping classes, constantly look- ing out the window, or if the sudden urge to wear shorts came upon you, you knew you had it. There's one sure way to tell a person with spring fever. They usually are the people with uneven sunburns from lay- ing out too soon, too long, or the ones who start to wear their new spring wardrobe in February. After the agony of shoveling walks, suffering subzero temperatures and watching the trees lose their leaves, we all were ready for some warm weather. To most students, it was easier to con- centrate on your homework during the winter months, be- cause when spring eventually came, homework was the last thing on everyone's mind. Playing a game of baseball or tennis took up a lot of stu- dents' spare time. Fleplied senior Molly Singleton, Spring's the time to get out and do things. April showers bring May flowers sure rang true this year, and sometimes we thought the sun would never shine in April. But when it did, everybody made sure they got some. And we all said, at least once, I wish it would stop raining and get sunny! Trying to keep yourself im- mune from this favorable disease was impossible. And everyone who didn't get a little crazy and feel the effects of spring had something more serious than spring fever!- Don't hit me! Sophomores Kevin Al- cox, Tony Moricca and Dan Flotow have a friendly conversation before hitting the books again. - l ll-sg. ,ij I can't find my shoe! We've only got a half hour. Let's get going! Are these neckties okay? Oh no, I forgot my lines! Walking backstage before the performance of West Side Story or Dark of the Moon you may have overheard bits and pieces of conversation like this. But walking backstage just wasn't enough for most people. They wanted a seat out front where even more action was! lf you wanted action then West Side Story was the play for you! It was a modern Romeo and Juliet about the relationship between a Puerto Rican girl and an American boy. And they both find out that their backgrounds get in the way. Dance numbers such as Cool and Gee Officer Krupke by the Jets or Amer- ica by the Shark girls kept everyone's toes tapping. And who could have portrayed Romeo and Juliet so well? Nobody but seniors Jeana Tenerelli tMariaJ and Andy Fishering CTonyJ. Even though Jeana admits to being afraid of heights, to her, it was worth standing up on the rocks for Dark of the Moon and up on the roof in West Side Story . Eerie and mysterious. That's just one way to describe Dark of the Moon .

Being number one, striving for perfection, or staying up to all hours of the night working on a term paper didn't seem like it was worth all the pain at the time, but it was. All the work that it took to get to the top deserved some sort of recognition, not just a pat on the back or a smile, but something you could keep and remember working for, Receiving an award was just the answer. Special banquets and award ceremonies were even held in honor of the hard working energetic students who cared. Some thought a flimsy piece of paper or a piece of wood with a name on it didn't mean much, but if they would have taken the time to look behind the obvious, all the effort would have stared them in the face! The awards of '81 came in all shapes and sizes. There were awards in sports, academics, journalism and fine arts. And so many more. Winning an award as an individual in any of these areas was an achievement! Winner of the Best Spartan Speaker award, junior Lisa Norris, for example, placed eleventh in the state. And replied Lisa, To say I did it all on my own, it's really an achievement. And don't forget senior Stan Crosley who won the Bob Williams award! Academically speaking, winning an award here was defi- nitely an individual achievement. And if you were one of the lucky ones who achieved this, hopefully you got a pat on the back! Seniors Brian Clark and Brian Mertens were both win- ners of National Merit Scholarships. The Glitter And The Glory Winning as part of a group was just as big an honor. The band as a whole placed third in the state finals and the Sym- phonic Choir placed first at NISBOVA state finals. And our boys' varsity basketball team became the winners of the NEIAC Conference Championship once again. That's a lot of winning! Not to mention Boys' Tennis who placed second in the state finals. So you see, putting in that extra time to be perfect, get top grades and work as a team to achieve a goal wasn't such a pain after all. It was worth it in the end!- ' ' ' Here ya go!

And the worst part about it is getting your hands on enough of it. Working seemed to be the best solution for Homestead stu- dents. Most students found their.jobs at service stations, fast food restaurants, department stores and grocery stores. Earning those extra bucks was hard enough, but trying to fit in the time to work was even harder. Some students chose week- end work as well as weekdays and found out that it really did pay off. And being able to buy a car of your own, that great record album or a pair of designerjeans, was all worth that extra effort. Sometimes that extra effort turned into disaster! Messing up orders, getting fired, coming to work late, dropping trays of dishes, getting to bed late or spending your whole paycheck on gasoline may have been some of the disadvantages of working. Commented senior Jan Fischer: I use my parents' car and they pay forthe gasoline. Otherwise I'd be broke. Yes, having a job did involve a lot of disadvantages but would you believe the advantages outnumbered the disadvantages? Gaining independence from mom and dad, earning that much needed money, becoming responsible and acquiring a new skill were just a few of them. Sometimes students didn't work just for the moneyg some- times they worked forthe enjoyment of it. Jobs such as exercis- ing horses, walking dogs, babysitting, mowing lawns, painting fences or even tutoring other students in certain subjects were It's Better Than Martine - - - -- Being Broke jobs many students had full or part time. The list of hard working and enjoyable jobs was endless. Work was available indoors and out, high paying and low paying, physical and mental and long work days or short work days. But students found it harder and harder to find short work days that were both fun and good paying. Well, fun or not we did manage to find work. And popular places such as Time Corners, Parkwest and Southtown would have been dead if it wasn't for the get up and go of students. Senior Holly Huffman stated: I really like my jobg l meet a lot of people, and it seems like everyone works at McDonalds. And senior Lori Erhardt said: Working at Zestos is great and l get discounts because l'm an employee. Having a job was important not only to the individual but the community.

Not only did our brothers and sisters, whether younger or older, give us support, but our parents did too. Most of us took for granted the things they did for us.

Driving yourself, car pooling with friends, taking the bus, riding your motorcycle, moped or bicycle, and when some be- came desperate, even walking was one of the alternatives students had. Everyone hated to ride the bus. Those big, yellow South- west Allen County monsters! All the confusion, getting home later, or getting on and finding no place to sit made a lot of people change their mind about riding the bus. Bumming a ride, or driving yourself to school was what everyone would have rather done. Because a ride with Joe, or driving yourself in dad's old Pontiac, had to be better than the bus. Some stu- dents had a car of their own, like a Fiat, Corvette, or Trans- Am! While others ended up driving the family's station wagon, Bronco, pick-up, out of style Camero, or just a plain clunker to school. But as the price of gas rose to 31.35 a gallon, Mom and Dad wanted or insisted that you take the bus with little Johnny. Once you got to school it was sometimes hard to find a place to park. And if your car was found in the senior park- ing Iot, and you weren't a sen- Finally heading home. Reaching for his car keys, senior Tom Dare gets ready to head home on a sunny after- noon. Erdfarm ior, beware! You may have found a very soapy car at the end of the day. The parking lot was a sort of hangout. And for some, getting that last smoke or talk with friends started out the day. While you were on your way to school with Joe, or riding the yellow monster, you might have passed by senior Marion Powers and her famil- iar 10 speed bicycle. She was just one of the few people who chose an athletic and out- doorsy way of getting to school. You may also have passed by a lonesome person walking. It was a great way to get their exercise, but if they didn't have a ride, or missed their bus, they had to walk. If you didn't ride the bus, bum a ride, walk, or peddle your bicycle, there was only one way left. Coming on your Honda! Some students were lucky enoughto own their own. Even girls! Senior Marilyn Den- nis had one. Even teachers James Wehner and Steve Wallace came on motorcycles when the weather was right. No matter how much you liked the outdoors you had to soon face the hard cold facts of winter. And things like mo- torcycles, walking and riding the bicycle were out.

But fortu- nately spring was on its way. How you arrived or departed from school could have been an inconvenience for you or your parents. But that didn't stop anyone, because even though you might have suf- fered from an exhausting bike trip, or even a cold car ride, you reached your destination. lf your destination was to get to school, you might have been surprised upon arrival. On any normal school day you might have seen Bo Derek, dirt bikes, horses, cute puppies and rock stars. A normal school day you say? Yes! These were just some of the crazy creations that added pi- zazz to students' lockers. Decorating lockers was done in hundreds of ways. Some people didn't decorate their locker at all while others decorated it from corner to corner. And what could have been just about everything from Playboy pin-ups in sen- iors Doug Hammons' and Steve Campbell's locker, to Playgirl pin-ups in seniors Hei- di Cadwalder and Kelly Harters' locker. The decorat- ing didn't just take place on the inside, but on the outside too. The orange, yellow and blue lockers added color, but when it was someone's birth- day or special sports event everyone knew about it by the banners, streamers, and school colors attached. Pictures weren't the only things inside lockers! Piles of books, paper, notebooks, pens, pencils, coats, sweat- ers, and anything else that could have been stuffed into them were. Fitting things into your locker might have been a problem, especially for the un- derclassmen. Those little lockers just didn't seem to hold everything. The seniors had it the easiest, they had all the room they needed! And it soon became a privilege of getting a senior locker to do with it whatever you wished. Well almost! 16-34-23. No, this wasn't a football play. And fortunately it wasn't as hard to remember as one. It could have been your locker combination, but by the end of the year you didn't even realize what your combination was. If you saw someone kick or slam their locker it probably wasn't because they couldn't remember their combination, but maybe they didn't pass that one important test that they knew they should have s tx 5 s 5 3 3 Q !'

We all had our own style of studying. With the family dog by our side, milk and cookies in each hand, radio blaring, us- ing an older brother's or sis- ter's notes, alone, or in a group were just some of the most popular ways. Some of us studied right before going to bed, after work, or in many cases, five minutes before a test! But there were those people who just couldn't put their book down, and bumped into other people as they stud- ied walking down the hall. Where you studied wasn't as important as making sure you studied. Right? Wrong! If you ended up in the library to study, chances were that you became involved in a conver- sation with friends. lf you de- cided to study at home you may have decided that watch- ing television sounded more appealing. Or if you attempted to study in a study hall at e Brain? school the noisy atmosphere probably kept you from open- ing a book. The only answer was to force yourself to do it! Forcing yourself to do something as horrible as studying might have taken some effort. But Mom and Dad made sure that you didn't for- get or put it off by nagging you. All of our parents were good at that If your parents didn't nag they would simply say, We'll see on report card day. It was hard to find the time to study. So instead of finding the appropriate time, many students would end up singing their chemistry valences, Ger- man verbs, history dates or mathformulas inthe shower or bathtub. And if not there, the dinner table did just fine. Would you believe some, when they got really desper- ate, would drink coffee in or- der to stay awake? Students did just about Home, sweet, homework.

But it ll do Sera' Eric Fairhurst and sophomore Dare Kerner seem to agree es,-wi Eat to the Beat fContinued from page 471 came to studying. We went crazy! Exhausted from staying up all night studying, thank goodness we finally got a break. Lunchbreak! And as you stood in the line pondering over what to get for lunch, chicken noodle soup or a hot- dog, you could only put your school work behind and think of your empty stomach. Eating wasn't the only thing students did while they en- joyed their break. Catching up on gossip, doing unfinished homework or just sitting back and listening to the new juke- box were some of the activi- ties that went on during all three periods. Fortunately there were three periods f4A, B and CJ. but they were all crowded. Most people wanted to eat 4A when there was plenty of food. 4B was popular because it split your fourth period class, and 4C was popular because it made the day go lots faster with only two classes left to go. Kids had the choice of brown bagging it, ala carte, or the traditional tray lunch. And the sign double dip, double pay will stick in our minds for- ever. But what students ate was more important to them than the price. And potato chips, cookies and ice cream cones were favorites being stuffed into the faces of many junk food junkies. Boy if mom could have seen what I ate for lunch today! Mom probably wouldn't have wanted to set foot in the cafeteria.The music and noise that went on would have really turned her off. But we couldn't have survived without some sort of sound while we ate! The teachers didn't quite agree, and they slid into the teacher's cafeteria to enjoy their meal. But one thing ev- eryone agreed on was that this was one of the most im- portant breaks of the day. Sure it may have been hard on the stomach, but it was easy on the brain. Well, by sixth period lunch had settled, and when the 2:27 bell rang we raced off to our locker, shuffled through our books and grabbed a coat happy to be heading home. But as you chased down your bus, hopped on your bike or started up your car, you real- ized it was just like any other ordinary day.- C- 49 Il C'dna'y f From Blue to Gold We had 'Em All Disappointments happen.

If Running for the health of it Stride Right To most of us a jog is probably a couple laps around the block or a trip to the mail- box. But, to the 1980 Cross Country Team, a jog meant a 3.1 mile run around the new course on the school grounds. Sound easy? Well, it's not! The guys on the team spent time conditioning and training to get ready to run that course, and it was no easy task to pre- pare for. Many of their summer days were spent having two practices a day, running an average of seven miles. They had to be in top shape be- cause the course was ex- tended from 2.5 to 3.1 miles, and if you're not in shape that added .6 of a mile can be rough! The team took their so- called jogs very seriously and put heart and enthusiasm into finishing with a fine time. This deep desire to have a good season earned the team a 3rd place finish in confer- ence, 4th place finish in Sec- tional, and 8th place finish in Regionals. Coach Dick Shen- feld remarked, I was really happy with the third place in conference, considering l only had three returning letter- men. The set back in experience and the fact that only ten guys tried out for the team, made it extra hard for Coach Shenfeld to organize a well balanced team. Senior Jim Klump corn- mented, lt made it a lot hard- er for all of us, but the good relationships that were estab- lished between the lettermen and the younger members pro- vided a supportive atmo- sphere. The team's final run came at Regionals, where junior Dave Justus finished 13th and just missed a trip to state. Coach Shenfeld was pleased with the team's running at Regionals and felt that everyone peaked that day. Despite all their set-backs the team had finished with an even 9-9 season. They had placed Justus on the all state team, and most importantly. had become a close group of individuals who had con- quered the task which they had set out to do.

They started out strong mentally, and set their goals high. They were just plain tough. Everyone predicted they would do well, and expected a return trip to the state cham- pionship. Most teams would have felt that kind of pressure. They felt none. The scheduled matches didn't give the guys much of a battle, so semi-state prove'd to be their first real test. Their first opponents, Lafayette Jef- ferson, was ranked fourth in the state and the score was tied two points for each team. Team captain Tom Dare was still out on the court battling for his third set point, the one that would give the team their first round victory. As would be expected Tom proved his skill by winning his third set.

Everyone played well and a lot of fantastic tennis was dis- played by all the players. but they were edged out by Car- mel 4-1. All the practices and matches had come to an end.

Never throw in the towel 'Comeback Kids' It could have been one of those seasons you'd like to forget. After six games there were only two wins and a few hard teams remained. But, that didn't stop the 1980 foot- ball team. They just kept com- ing back. After that 6th game Coach Cavacini just looked at all the guys and asked them what they wanted to do. Something was going to have to change if the Spartans were going to have a winning season. Some teams would have been tempted to just throw in the towel at this point. Not the 1980 team. They were de- termined to K.A., and K.A. is what they did! When the team entered onto the field for that 7th game against Columbia City, atti- tudes and spirits were changed. Why? No one really knows, it just happened. This unexplainable change helped the team to a 21-6 victory over the Eagles, and it didn't stop there. The team continued their comeback at Homecoming with a 27-13 win over DeKalb. However the Spartans weren't liofflafl the only ones fired up for that game. Fireworks filled the air at halftime and cost the team three 5 yard penalties for de- lay of game. But it was no hin- drance for the Spartansg it gave them the enthusiasm needed to score a needed touchdown late in the game. Now only Bluffton and South Adams stood between the team and a 6-4 season. It was obvious that they were deter- mined to finish with a winning year. Coach Cavacini com- mented, The thing that im- pressed me the most about the team was their desire to come back. And, as anticipated, Bluffton and South Adams went down to defeat as the 'Comeback Kids' closed out their season with strong offensive and de- fensive movement. Coming back was the key to a winning year for the 1980 team. They had combined good attitudes and teamwork to come up with a 6-4 slate, a goal that at one time seemed impossible. But, they had ac- complished their goal by com- ing back time and time again. l . .ggi 175 'WV '7' cj lege 5. 5' 4 'w ' . as r , .iff-Q tr . , f- ' .v',.

Adventure is the word al- right. The girls' golf team con- sisted of a lot more than just a leisurely nine or eighteen holes. It meant having to run for shelter to avoid being struck by lightening or sticking it out through the rough weath- er. lt meant having to be able to concentrate on golf alone, to forget about mistakes and go on with the rest of the match. The demands of golf were met by the 1980 team. Being on the team also had its many good points. One of the highlights of the season was the Northrop Invitational where the girls finished third after a hard-fought battle. The girls missed a second place finish by one point but still ad- vanced tothe Regionals where they placed Sth. Our play at the Regionals was not our best. During the regular season we only play nine holes. At the Regional we play eighteen. For some of us it takes that long to get warmed up, and for others that long wears them out, empha' sized senior Lana Stickler. The team was coached by Gene Crosley, his first year with girls' golf. lt was a learn- ing experience for both the coach and the team. The girls worked hard during the season but we never quite reached our potential, Coach Crosley related The girls were pleased with the new coaching arrange ment since Coach Crosley worked patiently with each in' dividual player The girls praci ticed hard every night at Fos- ter Park or on the lawn of Homestead. The practice paid off as the girls ended up with a winning record, participated in the Regionals, and set a new low record score of 189. Whether practice or a match, a quiet atmosphere is essential for the game of golf It's definitely not a sport for cheerleaders.

While most of us were swimming or lying out in the sun, the Spartan volleyball team was attending camp. They had given up one week of their vacation in order to bet- ter their chances for the up- coming season. They worked, sweated, and set their goals early. The girls' dedication was the main factor for the Spar- tans. Their summer exper- ience carried over to the sea- son as the girls worked their hearts out on the courts. Although the girls had the talent, dedication and desire, the season got off on the wrong foot. They lost several of their first games. We played some really good teams right at the begin- ning, and they learned from their mistakes, said Coach Anne Eshleman. Individually the girls had a lot of natural ability. It was Eshleman's second year with the team. She worked right along with the team and even attended camp with them. The players were pleased with their coach. On top of being a great coach, she's also our friend, smiled junior Rhonda Schwartz. She kept us going, worked us hard and got us in shape. The work at practice often consisted of bumping, setting and spiking, terms that could only belong to the game of vol- leyball. The girls could be seen rolling on the floor, learn- ing howto dive. They also put in many hours perfecting their serves. Win or lose, they were always back in the gym the next night working hard. Everyone played their har- dest. We all wanted to win, but sometimes we couldn't seem to get it all together, com- mented senior Amy Bunn. The ending of the season meant making the first team all conference for senior Alisha Chadwell and a second team nomination for junior Julie Johnstone. We did a lot of growing up during the year, summed up Chadwell. lt was hard to stay fired up when we played some of the toughest teams around. Even though they were play- ing tough teams the Spartans gave them good competition. Their spirit, determination and fighting spirit will always be remembered. I 1, l I C Xcifycj Get that guy!

Movin' Up Reserve: Something re- served or set aside for a par- ticular purpose, use or reason. Reserve basically had the same definition when it came to sports. But our reserve teams got involved. They practiced and had games, matches and meets just like all of the varsity teams. One hard working group was the reserve football team. Summer training was worth all of the sweating and sore mus- cles because the team fin- ished with a winning record of 6-3. Unfortunately, there weren't many fans for any reserve sport but the experience the athletes gained was well worth their time. The reserve tennis team fol- lowed in its varsity footsteps and ended up with a winning record. Every night after school they could be seen by the locker room preparing for a tough workout. Tough workouts were part of the reserve volleyball team's training also. Although the final record, 1-8, wasn't as triumphant as other sports, they gave it all they had. Pure dedication kept them going. Running! This was the basic skill for the reserve cross country team. There were no fans out on the trail, but the pride the runners took in them- selves gave them enough push to finish the 3.1 mile course. Many runners ran both reserve and varsity, trying to get in as many good workouts as possible. Maybe the definition for re- serve should be hard-work- ing, dedicated and proud. At least it should be in our school dictionaries. I spli- S. My 1 -K Wx X. x . ' I 1 ff. . ' N ' Q 4 I I . L - v N, , . , l .Q xr ,, ri. '-I ' '-4' Part of the job.

Well, it wasn't easy. If it wasn't for the help of the assistant coaches, their job would be almost impossi- ble. Assistant coaches had var- ious duties to perform. They handled all the things that the head coaches couldn't possi- bly do. I kept track of all the things the head coach doesn't have time for. For example, I paid attention to how many fouls the players had and how many time-outs we had left, ex- plained the Reserve Girls' Basketball Coach Anne Eshle- man. Assistant coaches got just as involved during practices too. Many assistant coaches had their own reserve teams to work with at practice. When they weren't working with them, they were usually at the head coach's side giving sug- gestions and helping in any way they could. lf Coach McKeeman is working with a small group of players, I will go and work with the other players. This way ev- eryone can get some special- ized attention, commented Coach Burt Wygant, assistant varsity basketball coach. It may seem to you that the job of an assistant coach would have been rather te- dious and not very fulfilling. You may be wondering why anyone would want to be an assistant coach when they might have a chance to be a head coach. Concerning just being an assistant, one coach answered, l don't think I'd want to be a head coach. By being an assistant l get to be involved with the team without having all the pressure of a varsity job. So you see, a lot went on behind the scenes of the var- sity athletic teams. If it wasn't for the aid of the assistant coaches, many of the goals achieved during the year might not have been possible. l Xe 'L Geaixfeg x X Y. 5, S' .

It started in the 4th grade when five guys met to form Homestead's future basket- ball team. Back then, no one expected too much of them. After eight years people ex- pected a lot from them, but no one quite realized the heights to which the mighty Spartans would climb. We didn't foresee 24 wins, commented Coach Neal McKeeman. A team like that comes only once in a coaching career. This amazing team was only beaten twice in regular season play. They became the confer- ence champions with a perfect record and won the confer- ence tourney, beating DeKalb A fairy ta-le Shooting For A Dream in overtime, 68-67. But, of course, none of this could have been accom- plished without dedication and sacrifice. Beginning in June, the Spartans went downtown and joined in some inner-city games of basketball. They learned how to work together by playing steadily all summer and right through the season. We had a relaxed atmo- sphere at practice and this brought out the best in every- body, said senior forward Dave Frey. All of the work they put in to their sport was evident as the Spartans came away with the Huntington Sectional title, de- feating Northfield, 54-42 inthe final game. That victory sent them to the Regionals at Marion along with four fan buses and a whole caravan of decorated cars. The Spartans defeated Norwell in the morning which advanced them to the finals against Marion. Although play- ing their best, the Spartans just couldn't get the job done, being defeated 78-62. The players will never forget the experience of being Re- gional finalists. lt's hard to describe playing at Marion. My emotions can't be put into words, commented senior guard Stan Crosley, who had the best field goal percentage in one game making 11-13 shots against Bluffton for 85070. In the games against De- Kalb, New Haven and Marion, he also made the record for the most free throws made in one game along with Frey and senior forward Jeff Rickard. The team set several school records including the most field goals tried f1,499J, the most field goals made 17223, the most rebounds 48917, and the most assists f438J. The team's offensive average per game was 65.5 while their de- fensive average was 53.3. An- other record set was the least points given up in one game, which was 35, against Leo. These records and many more like them are set down in the pages of Homestead's history. The courageous Spar- tans ofthe 1980-81 fairy tale will not be forgotten.- Don't give up!

Takedo n Season Pin! Diet! Run! Sweat! Work! Wrestle! The unique sport of wrestling involved all of these things. Every night after school the team was at work on the deck of the gym. Their practice began at 2:45 when they weighed in. This was followed by calisthenics and then running, lifting weights and working on the mats. Practice was hard, but it paid off in the end, comment- ed senior Al Pierce. We came a long way from the beginning of the season. With a team record of 5-8, one of the highlights of the season was the New Haven ln- vitational. Twelve Spartans placed there with first place finishes going to seniors Marc Elliott and Lance Wygant, and junior Scott Coleman. The team was led by Coach Rick Garton. He was always sitting, standing or kneeling by the mats at every match giving instructions to the wrestlers. lt sometimes seemed as if he could barely keep himself from going onto the mats himself. This was my best year in coaching. All of the guys were tremendous, smiled Coach Garton. ln the conference tourna- ment the Spartans came out looking good. Four Home- stead wrestlers placed. The Sectional was the be- ginning of a long tournament session for senior Marc Elliott. Going in unbeaten, he pulled off another first place finish along with seniors David James and Lance Wygant, and junior Scott Coleman. Moving on to the Regionals, Elliott came out again with an- other first while James, Cole- man and Wygant placed fourth. At the semi-state Elliott's record was broken and he placed second. But this was not the end of Marc's story be- cause he still qualified for state! Marc lost in the first round at state but was still in the top twelve wrestlers of his weight class. Wrestling is an excel- lent sport. I learned a lot from it. You get out of it what you put into it, Elliott stated. The wrestlers definitely put a lot into their sport. All of the hard work and dedication was worth it and the athletes could term their season as worth- wiiiie.l Hold on a little longer!

It's so cold that we all just stay inside and hope for snow, so we can go out and play in it. Well, like winter, the gym- nastics season seems to just drag along. The girls practice almost two full months before they have their first match. And, with that much time on your hands, you sometimes find yourself losing enthusi- asm. But the team only had elev- en girls this year and those two months of practice proved to be beneficial. Coach Jeni Hirschy commented, I hope to build some interest in it next year so we have a few more girls try out. Despite the smallness of the team, the girls still worked hard every night. They even came back to school when school had been dismissed early, due to the snow. They had what it was going to take to make it through the season-determination. That determination to overcome whatever setbacks they might encounter carried them through. It was with this attitude that the girls were able to win their last four meets and finish with a 5-8 season. The team also finished third in the confer- ence with the help of freshman Marnie Gautsch andjuniorHei- di Anhaeuser. Heidi also scored an 8.05 on her vault to give her her season high. Mar- nie took fourth in the floor competition and Heidi finished first on the beam. So while we were inside waiting for it to snow, the girls gymnastics team was out practicing, and it did pay off.

First of all you have to learn where your classes are, then you have to figure out the best way to get to them from your locker. But, if you're involved in re- serve sports the learning doesn't stop there. You have to begin getting used to the tough practice sessions and the new offenses and de- fenses that have to be learned. Every week it's a new game plan. It seems like your coach has always got some- thing for you to learn.

That's what several Homestead students did dur- ing the school year without ac- tually participating in a sport. Almost every sport had a managerg it was practically im- possible to get along without them. Their duties entailed taking statistics, washing uni- forms, going to every game and most practices, and just about every other job that the coach and players couldn't handle alone. Mat maids were a type of personalized managers. The girls, sponsored by Miss Jack- ie Gruesbeck, were in charge of keeping score, announcing at the meets, providing the wrestlers with oranges after they competed, setting up the gym for meets, video-taping meets, calling the scores into newspapers and doing many other vital jobs for the smooth running of the team. Being a mat maid is a great way to get to know people and make friends, said sopho- more Julie Baily. The third way of becoming involved was to be a cheer- leader. The varsity squad spent a week during the sum- mer at Saint Mary's College at cheerleading camp, while the reserve spent a week at Ball the State. At these camps girls learned new chants and cheers to help cheer on the teams. Their sixth period cheer- leading class was used to practice, paint signs and plan pep sessions. I loved being a cheer- - M4 , .I ,.,, . , V fd 'ii l 1-044 W 6 leader. It made me feel like a part of the teams, comment- ed reserve cheerleader junior Amy Fiosenhaun. These three groups-man- agers, mat maids, and cheer- leaders-were an important part of the athletic depart- ment. They spent their time and energy to help athletics.

That's really the only time we have access to any swimming facilities. This isn't the case for three Homestead swimmers though. Freshman Scott Altman, soph- omore Kolette Mauser and senior Lori Altman swim throughout the year. Scott's been swimming for seven years and currently swims for the Southeast YMCA. He finished first in the 100 meter backstroke and 200 meter individual medley at the Shroeder Senior Meet in Wisconsin. This put him inthe top ten of the nation in those events. Scott added, I was really happy with that meet. Lori swims the 200 meter butterfly and the 100 meter butterfly for the Southeast YMCA. She has qualified for the Junior Nationals and sight- ed her first place finish inthe State when she was a fresh- man as her best achievement. Lori plans to swim for Indiana University. Kolette Mauser swims the 200 meter backstroke and the 100 meter backstroke for Club Olympia. But she hasn't been doing it as long as Scott and Lori due to the broken ankle she had this year. Kolette said it put her behind but she's go- ing to spend the summer in California to get caught up. Scott, Laurie, and Kolette felt that the facilities in Fort Wayne for competitive swim- mers could be better. Scott commented, I have to go to Indianapolis because of the lack of training facilities here in town. This inconvenience might make other swimmers quit but not Scott, Lori and Kolette, They just keep kicking for higher goals.- Q . Slugging it out America's Pastime What sport depends on the condition of the field? In what sport can you get dirt from head to toe just to be called safe? In what sport do the fans have to be careful of flying balls? Of course none other than America's favorite pas- time-baseball. And the Spar- tan baseball team had to live with these conditions as well as possible. The beginning of the season brought hopes of a great out- come. The team, as well as the coach, anticipated suc- cess. But their hopes seemed to fade as the season pro- gressed. They finished their season with a record of 12-13. The season was frustrat- ing. I thought we'd win 20 games during the regular sea- son, commented Coach Tom Muth. lt seemed that at certain times during the season the team would be in a slump, but when they got their act togeth- er they were unbeatable. We were inconsistant in our playing. When we were hot though, nobody could beat us, explained senior Steve Baker. Despite the ups and downs of the season, the athletes never seemed to give up. The teammates were more than just several guys thrown to- gether. They formed friend- ships that will last longer than the memory of the season. Unity was the reason for the success that we did have. Everybody on the team got along with everyone, said senior Dave Frey. Well, America's favorite pastime certainly hit the Spar- tan field again. lt came with the dirt, the flying balls, and the rainy conditions. It came with its disappointments and victories. And it left the ath- letes with memories they will never forget.- .- -..LQ 'ls.-Q -..Q liaffbai g.n.:..., .,,,, . ,.,...-..,,, mama. L Hit a homer!

II' S5 -J Baseball A busy season Taking it to the Courts! A good word to describe the 1981 Homestead girls' tennis team is successful. How about determined, or just plain good? No matter what words are used to describe the team, they are always positive. One word that gives a fairly good picture of the team is busy. During their pre-season they ran, practiced on Home- stead's courts, or when weather wouldn't permit, they would all go down to Wildwood Racquet Club where they during the season, they didn't practice much at all. That may seem rather strange, but the reason is that they didn't have time! The girls averaged about three matches a week which is enough to wear anyone down. But they never let up. Rain or shine you could be sure that the tennis team was in action somewhere. The person that held this team's schedule to- gether as well as the players was first year coach Jim Lyon. He was a very understanding coach. He kept our spirits up when we lost, commented ju- nior Betsy Blume. When the season finally wound down, the girls had a lot to be proud of. They finished with a record of 10-3 and placed 3rd in the sectionals. Betsy Blume was a singles semi-finalist and an alternate to the Regionals. Seniors Kristi Parker and Alisha Chad- well were doubles semi-fina- lists. There were also two quarter-finalists: junior Cheryl Shook in singles and sopho- more Kelly Johnstone in dou- bles. Despite all of the work that the girls put into the season, they managed to have a good time. We had some fun times in tennis. The girls were great, summed up Cheryl Shook. When describing the tennis team it's almost impossible to put it into a single word. Dedi- cation? Desire? How about a whole sentence? A job well done.- would play until evening. Then, l Watch out!

But the putt-putt course was not where the golf team have been playing for years and when the weather's nice they don't head to any putt-putt courseg they head to one of the local golf courses. They were young but they were tough and their talent showed up in their season re- cord of 13-2, losing one to Elk- hart Memorial by only two shots. The guys had a lot of poten- tial but the fact that they were so young hindered them in a couple of crucial matches. Sophomore Kurt Johannes said, We had a lot of poten- tial, but we didn't have that much varsity experience. Kurt and junior Mike Mar- chese didn't have that prob- lem though. Both went on to Regionals for the second year in a row but, unfortunately, the two didn't do as well as they had wanted to. Johannes re- marked, We both just wanted to go to semi-state so bad: we tried too hard! Justtryingto dotheirbestis what made the golf team so successful. When they were having trouble they just went to Coach Gene Crosley for help, and he helped them more than any putt-putt course ever could.- Tee time. Freshman Dan Brock tees oft first for the team.

Have you ever gotten one of those stubborn horses that took pride in see- ing how many times he could throw you off? Well, the Girls' Track team didn't have any trouble staying on a horseg they just had trou- ble staying on the winning side of their season. They ran ten meets during the year but could only come up with a single victory over Woodlan. This was discouraging for all the girls on the team, but they never stopped giving it their all. They were young and they were small but they al- ways gave the best of teams a good run. Last year the girls did not win a meet and finished last in both conference and section- als. But, the story was differ- ent this year. They worked to- gether for an eighth place finish in the conference and an eleventh place finish in sec- tionals. The first year mile re- lay team of Chris Andrews, An- gie Castaldi, Carrie Zimmerman and Sonja Hardt helped the team place by fin- ishing sixth overall. But the girls couldn't have improved their record without the help of first year coach Jeni Hirschy. Sophomore Lib- by Clifton remarked, She al- ways helped every individual on the team. Last year we were last, this year she helped us move up a notch. Not only did the team move up a notch, but junior Candy Keller did too. Candy finished third in the sectionals and went on to Regionals in the shot put. She also received the honor of Most Valuable Player for the season. There was no horsing around on this team.

The tired feet and muscles we are left with just aren't worth the extra ef- fort it takes. But to the 1981 track team, it was more than worth it. Each member practiced every night and ran an average of three miles. Not even the bad spring weather could stop these guys. When it rained they just moved inside and ran the halls. All this extra effort paid off tool The mile relay team broke the old school record of 326.9 with a finish of 326.2. Tracy Foster also broke a record with his 100 meter dash time of 11.3. Unfortunately their luck came to an abrupt stop. The team became plagued with in- juries. Crucial spots were left empty when seniors Benny commented, Our meets were all close but we needed just a few points from the spots that were left empty. lt was frus- trating because we didn't have anyone to replace the in- jured. After all the disappoint- ments the guys faced, you'd expect them to just lose their enthusiasm. Not this team. They finished 4-5 overall and placed eight guys on the all conference team: the mile re- lay team of Jim Klump, Jon Hayes, Ashley Miller and Stan Crosley along with the 400 meter relay team of Foster, Cunningham, Reggie Shannon and Paul Davis all did their jobs well. The guys proved that all the sore muscles, skinned knees and twisted ankles were more than worth the effort.- E Boys?tTrack 3 Out of the blocks.

Everyone wants to be outside when the warm weather rolls around. During the 1981 season there were many different sports to become involved in that got people outside. Varsity com- petition was at its best. And, of course, so was reserve. The track seemed to be loaded with people. Besides both mens' and womens' var- sity teams there were also re- serves as well. They worked right along with the varsityg just as long and just as hard. I liked being on the reserve track team. Of course l would like to run varsity someday but for now, l'm satisfied with re- serve, commented sopho- more Chris Donor. The activity on the tennis courts was also busy during the spring. The reserve team, coached by Jim Lyon, finished with a record of 10-4. The team seemed to copy its varsi- ty's style of winning, as they both had a successful year. Coach Gene Crosley had his hands full as he headed up the varsity golf team as well as the reserve. The reserves had a fairly good season, ending up with a record of 5-5. The reserve baseball team had a rather bumpy season as they finished their season with a record of 2-5. But what's more important is that the younger athletes got a chance to play some baseball. Spring was definitely an ac- tive sports season around here. And the best part about it is the fact that reserves played such an important part of it!- 38.13.11 Win this match!

Q-. eeting a Different Challenge We all like to watch football, basketball and baseball games but when was the last time you caught a game of soccer, an equestrian show or a skateboard competition? These sports aren't as com- mon as football or basketball but to two juniors and one sophomore the challenge they offer is rewarding. A challenge not only mentally but physical- ly as well. Soccer is John Diettrich's idea of a physical challenge. He runs and kicks for an aver- age of 10-12 miles in each match. He didn't just do this without any kind of training though. John practices all year and has been playing for the past 12 years. He has played for Fort Wayne Sports Club, summer leagues and here at school. Skateboarding is what Bra- den Smith enjoys. He is cur- rently skating forthe Hair Cen- ter and practices about 12 hours a week. Braden's been skating for six years but just recently started ramp skating. I hope to get a ramp of my own sometime this year. Flight now l have to go out to a friend's to skate, he com- mented. Nell Perrey looks to yet an- other sport for a challenge. She's been a rider for the past 11 years and now competes with world class riders. During the season she flies down to Kentucky every weekend for her riding lesson with her horse Missy's Flying Genius. Nell has shown at both Cea- sar's Palace and Madison Square Gardens. So for John, Braden and Nell, sports challenges take place outside of the HHS walls but one can bet that they are just as satisfying and reward- ing as hitting the winning free throw, striking out the last bat- ter or scoring the go ahead touchdown. - lieifuffl Approaching the turn.

These ex- ceptions include the students who attended different camps, workshops, seminars, driver's training and conservation trips. To them, summer was a time for learning and fun. There were two conserva- tion trips over the summer. The first trip started on June 17 and the 17 students that stayed at the S-S Ranch in Colorado arrived home July 2.

Senior Amy Bunn comment- ed, The summer trip to Colo- rado was a great experience. Everybody got along so well it was like we were one big fam- iIy. The second trip was to the Tetons, Yellowstone National Park and Canada. Seventeen students attended the 19 day trip. Along with the trips this summer, there were several camps including: cheerlead- ing camp at St. Mary's College from August 3 to August 7 and reserve cheerleading at Ball State that took place the last week of July. Also at Ball State was the Journalism Workshop. Five students from the yearbook staff and three students from the newspaper staff attended. Sophomore Barb Buskirk, a Retrospect staffer, expressed her feelings, At first l was nervous, but there were so many nice people, which made it easier. Even though we worked a lot we managed to have our share of fun. Junior Steve Hart and soph- omore Emilie Schoenberg spent part of their summer at Interlochen National Music Camp from June 22 through August 19. Emilie majored in piano and minored in drama. She took classes that ranged from beginning harp to jazz composition. She said what she remembered most was the people. There were peo- ple there from 48 states and 26 countries. Some didn't speak English very well. The Spartan Band was play- ing throughout the entire sum- mer and marched in many con- tests. Band Camp started the 17th of August and lasted to the 2Oth. Seniors Brian Clark, Jan Fi- scher and Ellen Tittman spent five days at an Engineer Seminaronthe Purdue Univer- sity campus. Ellen stated. I learned a lot about the col- lege. and got to meet and talk with several professors. l've kept in touch with a majority of the students I met down there. Just as summer started to rollfora lot ofpeople, thetime came for fall registration. The first week of school required students to adjust their daily routine by rising early and get- ting used to wearing shoes. Once again homework and discipline dominated their days.- 15x if K i Sdn-me' .. , -nf , , .

The backpackers travel toward the Canadian Rockies but still find time to stop for a group photo. A lt was dark and overcast at five o'clock in the morning but that didn't dampen the mood of all the nervous and excited students. Some were having anxiety attacks while others were more anxious to hit the road. What would draw 18 stu- dents to the school parking lot at five a.m. during summer va- cation? On June 17, it was a trip to the S-S CS bar SJ Ranch in Steamboat Springs, Colo. On July 16, the destination was Waterton Park in Alberta, Can. These were the two Envi- ronmental Education trips of- fered during the summer of 1980. Hours of hard work and preparation had gone into these trips. Whether it was sit- ting through class three hours on a Tuesday night or day hik- ing at Chain-O-Lakes, the end result was well worth it. The students who went to the S-S Ranch traveled through Illinois, Iowa, Nebras- ka and finally into Colorado to climb the buttes. After spend- ing four days on the ranch A working and riding horses, the group spent four days in the wilderness. There, they ex- plored the area, went for cold swims and the ambitious souls, killed a rattlesnake. The group then started home through Rocky Mountain Na- tional Park, Kansas and 118 degree heat, Missouri and then back into Indiana. lt took 2 112 days for the second group of students trav- eling west to reach Cheyenne, Wyo. There, the group attend- ed Cheyenne Days where they went to a wild Charlie Daniels' Concert and a rodeo called The Daddy of 'em All . From there they again hit the road for Teton National Park where there were plenty of Kodak Stops and day hikes. The next stop was Yellowstone National Park where, to their amazement, they saw Old Faithful gush into the air. Following the gush of the geyser, they went to Glacier National Park in Montana. They drove through the wind- ing mountains on the Road to the Sun to see the snow- capped peaks and trickling waterfalls. After the breathtaking drive, the two loaded vans crossed the American border into Can- ada at Waterton Park in Alber- ta. At this point, the students got prepared for six days of adventurous backpacking in the wilderness. Slightly wor- ried about recent grizzly at- tacks, the group was off for a backpacking bonanza. All to- gether they hiked over 30 miles up and down rugged trails. But before they knew it the group was on their way home again to the flat farm- lands of Indiana. At the conclusion of both trips, the school parking lot was filled with parents and friends waiting to welcome the travelers home. Upon their ar- rival, tears were shed, smiles were cracked and memories were shared. I A true cowboy. Mr. Doug Waldman, dubbed in his hat, watches a roaring campfire on the S-S Ranch, Qfy. . JC. .

The only thing that could be heard was someone softly singing: I don't know how to love him. What to do, how to move him The song by Andrew Lloyd Webber was the last song on the band's program to be played at State. lt was October 17. Several students still stood in front of the school waiting: waiting to load up their gear and set off toward Brazil, lnd. to spend the night in the National Guard Armory. They were the Home- stead Marching Band. But Bra- zil wasn't their true destina- tion, it was Terre Haute. There, they would participate in the Indiana State Class B Compe- tition on Saturday, October 18. The night before the compe- tition, there were no soft beds to be slept on so they slept in sleeping bags sprawled across the floor, but then there wasn't much sleep to be had because they were too Stepping to the beat. Junior Rick LieBrich, junior Julia Foster and soph- omore Dave Kitaka keep in time to the music. 104 C Band 3 'i I nervous to fall asleep. AI- though spirits were high and they were among good friends, they weren't there for the fun of it. They were there to compete. The next afternoon, when it was their turn to perform in the preliminaries, the band marched confidently onto the field and gave it their best. They ranked second in the preliminaries with the score of 93.1, only four-tenths of a point away from first! Ranked among the top five in their divi- sion, they were now eligible to march in the finals that even- ing. Anxious to march onto the field 'again that evening, they knew that they had to give it everything they had, and that's exactly what they in- tended to do. One of the drum majors, Paul Ciesielski, ex- plained how he felt standing there observing the band's fi- nal performance: lt was the best show l've ever seen. I said to myself, 'Hey, is this really us?' l didn't want it to end. l wanted to show every- body who we were. Junior Tom Kittredge, after seeing the film of the band's performance, felt Home- stead's show had a lot more excitement than the other bands'. A couple of minutes before we were done perform- ing, we came on strong. We had a lot of people in the stands clapping for us: it wasn't just our tHomesteadJ fans. Before long, it was all over and again the members of the band found themselves wait- ing for the final outcome. At last, the results of the long an- ticipated decision came. The Homestead Band, after an ex- cellent performance, placed third inthe State Class B Band Competition! Again, the proof of a job well done and a superi- or reputation among other schools as The Band to beat . Mr. Ken McGuire, direc- tor, felt, Third was appropri- ate, and I was more than pleased with the band's per- formance. But Ciesielski seemed to sum it all up by add- ing: l felt that before they handed out the awards plac- ing didn't matter because we knew we did the best job we could. And that was our goal for the whole year. We im- proved with every perfor- mance. That's success, doing better than the time before. l j Don't drop it!

Back Those lazy, fun-filled sum- mer days were over and it was time to wake up to the awful sound of your alarm telling you, Rise and shine! Time for school! Those warm, roman- tic summer nights were over and you were up late every night trying to adjust to the concept of homework once again. Ah September! What a month! It was the first full month of the 1980-81 school year. For many people, the month of September was a chal- lenge. Many students collect- ed their courage and tried out for the fall play Dark of the Moon. Four seniors decided to become involved and ran for senior class president- Tom Butowitz, Leslie Benecki, Karl Urban and Randy Harding. And there were several band ex- cursions including the exhibi- tion in Homestead. For sophomores, the month of September meant making some decisions. Class ring time was here! lt took a lot of thought to design each ring! But something the sopho- mores didn't have much of a decision about was having E Seplgsiber :I At It their hearing tested. And those little beeps kept every- one awake. One big event everyone seemed to wait for was the an- nual yearbook distribution. And waiting around to see pic- tures of the past was always popular. But as everyone was looking at pictures of the year before-ironically it was time to get them taken again for the next book. September was always known as the back-to-school month. And believe it or not, some of us even looked for- ward to another school year. Starting out the year after three long months of sun-tan- ning and water-skiing was the Music Boosters' Back-to- School Bash and the start of class meetings once again in the auditorium. Through the crispy autumn air and falling leaves of Sep- tember, the sounds of the band practicing could be heard every night. Even though September was the start of a new, long, challenging year-the idea of starting over and getting to- gether with friends once again made it all seem worth it.- In the light of the moon. Senior Pep- per Bromelmeier and junior Steve Hart try out for a role in the play Dark of the Moon. Funny you should ask.

AI- though crepe paper wasn't the latest fad, it was fairly com- mon during spirit week after the hall decorating contest. With Homecoming activities and Halloween goblins roam- ing the halls, October wasn't a popular month for school work. It was just too hard to keep our minds on academics. But this was usually the time when teachers were gung- ho on education. Most courses just started rolling, along with some grades. All the reviewing of those forgot- ten lessons had been covered and the teachers were ready to see how capable their stu- dents really were. You could call it a test of abilityg a test of the students' ability to carry home every book in their lock- er. There was a test called the P.S.A.T. given to the juniors that month. lt was a pre-scho- lastic aptitude test. Now that was really a test to see how much of the past was remem- bered. Three years worth! October was also the month when the Student Government put all of their effort forth to have a great Homecoming. Those Wednesday meetings were really worth it! lt was a busy month for the marching band too. They spent each Saturday partici- pating in contests including the state contest on October 18 in Terre Haute. Field trips were in full swing by that time of the year. Classes went to the ballet. Manchester College and Aboite Elementary. Zoology classes even went to the zoo. Sure, October was a busy month. But like every other month it followed the usual ev- eryday schedule of six per- iods a day, five days a week. four weeks at a time.- .sq E .- 'U Cctsre' x! Always Fun You've heard of breakfast with Ronald McDonald and President Reagan haven't you? Well, how about break- fast with Mike or Charles. No, Mike and Charles aren't new candidates for senator or celebrities. But they are Homesteads' principal and Southwest Allen Countys' su- perintendent. And breakfast with Mike Fitsko and Charles Bradbury was only one of the new events that took place during the month of November. Things like a Mock Election and Unique Week were also offered. On Career Day during Unique Week everyone had the chance to listen to an area businessman speak on a field that they wished to pursue. Hairdressers, salesmen and doctors were only a few of the speakers who attended. Also, during Unique Week a differ- ent country's typical meal was featured. On Latin Day the lat- in classes got together with cafeteria workers to help make a lunch of Canelloni or pizza. But don't get Homestead wrong. Along with our Nation- al Honor Society meetings and report card distribution, we also have a lighter side: a side that likes a good time. The first annual Cow- down dance, sponsored by the Student Government was the first girls ask guys dance of the year. Having Veterans Day off the next day made ev- eryone enjoy the night a little more. Speaking of fun, having homeroom during the Athletic Raffle Ticket sale was nice because all the morning classes were shortened. A total of 2025 tickets were sold to help both the Home- stead and the Woodside Ath- letic Departments so teams didn't have to sell anything for the rest of the year. So even though we didn't have any special celebrities like Ronald McDonald or Ron- ald Reagan, we still had a very special November.- Did judo this?

Door decorating was one of the more fun Christmas activi- ties. A math class gave their equation for a Merry Christmas. l awww- alumna: That Extra Dri Giving and receiving seemed to be the message of December. One of the most re- warding and memorable events was the Adopt-a-Child program and the Christmas Can Drive which all of the classes took part in. The chemistry classes even had a contest among themselves, collecting over 4,000 cans. These two events gave every student the satisfaction of giv- ing a little more of themselves to someone else. Just sitting in the classroom watching the snow fall made everyone daydream about the holiday season and vacation ahead of them. And it seemed everything students and teachers engaged in had to do with the green and red sea- son. The Fine Arts Department presented their annual Yule- tide Feaste, having all the trimmings fit for a king. The Fine Arts Department also conducted the Christmas Community Tour. Even though spirits were flowing and everyone was dreaming about two weeks of Christmas vacation, studying and taking tests were still in full gear. One class especially in full gear was the Special Psychology class taught by Dr. Josh Gerow from Indiana- Purdue University. It was the first time the class was of- fered at HHS and students ended up taking their final test in December. During the month of Decem- ber it might have been hard to find anything but Christmas carols on the radio or for that matter at school too, because the foreign language classes learned how to sing all of the old favorites in a foreign tongue. Southwest Allen County was bursting at the seams with holiday tunes! Woodside, Indian Meadows and Homestead all had winter concerts,adding more holiday spirit. The Madrigal Choir also brought the sound of music to Homestead. Just about every other month of studying and taking tests besides December would have been hopping and not so exciting, but the holi- day cheer and two weeks of relaxation that we got added that extra special meaning to school.- ..i E Decenirej Kicking the evv Year's Habit Losing weight, kicking the smoking habit, saving money. All are New Year's resolutions. We all make at least one. But do we keep them? One resolution many made was to do better in school work. This was certainly a good idea, especially since fi- nal exams were coming up. Exam days consisted of three classes which were two hours long. And when those 12 grueling hours were over, stu- dents received a well de- served day off for semester break. While underclassmen and seniors got ready for the new semester, 28 other seniors met to getthe detailsforJanu- ary graduation. All of these EJ at-lil-Iiryj students met the 32 credit re- quirement for graduating in ln- diana. They were able to come back in May and participate in commencement ceremonies with the rest of their class. The music department also got back into the swing of things. The Performing Arts Choir practiced everyday in the auditorium for the NIS- BOVA Jazz and Swing Choir Contest held at Northside High School. The musically inclined group performed two numbers, Get Happy and Aquarius for which they earned a sec- ond place rating. Later in the month other mu- sic students went to Bishop Luers and participated in the NISBOVA Wind, Percussion, Just doing her job! Senior Marian Powers just does part of her routine while working at the Lutheran Hospi- tal. Solo and Ensemble Contest. The Madrigal Choir, a boys' and girls' barbershop quartet, and several soloists were amongst the groups that went from Homestead. Many re- ceived top ratings enabling them to go on to state compe- tition. Another group of talented people were also hard at work. The speech team had committed its members to Sat- urday meets and tourneys. Students competed in Colum- bia City in a speech tourna- ment and placed 6th overall. Winners included Matt Wil- liams, Karen Counterman, Nick Roth, Bekki Krueger, Jim Burns, Richard LeBlanc, Ann Cassady and Lisa Norris. To add to their curricular 'S 68 I'm speechless!

When the second semester began, students met in home- rooms to receive their new schedule cards. Half of the school year was part of histo- ry and another 18 weeks were ahead of us. It was time to see if we were able to abide to those New Year's resolu- tions.- XX -2., Q u , Ring 'em up!

Teach- ers piled on the homework, ex- tracurricular activities kept you involved and always ever present in February is the pos- sibility of a cold. There's a special holiday in February, but it occurs more than that only time. lt's not Val- entines Dayg it's not winter va- cation and it's not Christmas. lt's Secret Angel Day. On Se- cret Angel Day, you don't ex- change presents with your best friendg you don't tell your sweetheart that you 'love them, and you don't get to miss school-. lt's when Student Government members secret- ly exchange friendly corre- spondence with faculty mem- bers. On February 13, treats of heart lollipops, chocolates, stuffed animals, cookies and more brightened up all that is involved day. Flowers always brightened up everyone's day and the How sweet it is! Enjoying some cot- ton candy, freshman Katie Perrey watches some cake walk participants at the Student Government Carnival. Valentine's carnations brought a smile or a tear to all. Student Government sold over 1,000 carnations. Student Government kept busy in February, by also holding a winter carnival which was to help raise money for the Junior Prom. Many stu- dents put forth efforts to raise over 32,000 which led to a very successful prom. For the academically mind- ed, February was just as busy! If you happened to be one of the few people on the first se- mester Honor Floll, a special Honor Roll tea was held espe- cially for you. Certificates were received and you got to fill up on all of the punch and cookies you could handle! The drama and art students took a field trip. They were off to Chicagoto visitthe Museum of Modern Art and attend the Broadway hit musical Evita. An exciting Sectional Week brought with it Spirit Week. The days were dubbed as Unknown Comic Day , Dress Up Day g Stuffed Ani- mal Day and Blue and Gold and Hat Day. Did you happen to see any funny looking flat squares with tassles on anyone's head on hat day? If you did, it's be- cause seniors received their caps and gowns only one day before. Right in the middle of Spirit Week, one could hear imagi- nary bells ringing in the Home Ec hall. Oh, they weren't spirit bells, they were wedding bells! The Family Living and Sociology students held mock weddings in the Family Living room with a cake and minister too! lt seemed so real, but it was really pretend, as part of these classes cur- riculum. We all know that the beauty of the wilderness sure isn't pretend. And the students who went on the environmental sci- ence trips over the summer spent much of February learn- ing about the wilderness. They learned about canoeing, back- packing, first-aid, safety and everything else that goes along with living in the wilder- ness. Mr. Doug Waldman and Mr. Jay Hammel weren't about to take their students to Colo- rado or White Otter Creek without knowing how to live in the wilds safely! Two speech meets during the month kept the speech team working diligently attheir speeches all month. By the end of February, they knew the hard work was worth it, be- cause of all of the ribbons addedtotheir previous collec- tion. So through all of the snow drudging and stuffy noses you can't say we didn't stay ac- tive! And by keeping busy, the month of February went much faster than we had imag- ined.. lf?......f, ,,- T .

But don't throw away your boots yet even though the snow has stoppedg now it was time for March, probably the month with the most wind and rain of any month all year. But it was a great time to watch the trees starting to turn green. Speaking of green, there were plenty of green faces this month. lt was that time again for grade cards! Besides green faces, there were plenty of pale faces too! Early in the month the Student Government sponsored the Red Cross Bloodmobile and a total of 105 pints of blood were given by Homestead stu- dents. After suffering from the shock of grade cards, some students were ready to get away from school. The Span- ish, General Business and Human Physiology classes all took field trips, and six members of the publications staff took off to New York City for five days. In a galaxy not far away , the theme from Star Wars, sparked the National Music in Your Schools Week . Darth Vadar, Princess Leia and other spacey characters walked among the audience of elementary and junior high school students. March was definitely a win- ning month, in music especial- ly. The Swing Choir took an eleventh place at the Seventh Annual Bishop Luers Swing Choir Contest, and, get this, no other school from Allen County placed as high as Homestead! The other winning event was the Speech Re- gionals, and our Speaking Spartans went all the way with junior Lisa Norris advanc- ing to the state finals. She fin- ished eleventh in her event. For all of those college ori- ented students March brought with it representatives from several colleges who motivat- ed students who were consid- ering a college lite. The National Honor Soci- ety also inducted their new members. March may have been a windy month, but students didn't blow off any of their classes with report cards coming out, and after all those tests taking a break to try and fly a kite was a super break!- .wifw 593-42 Merch Monday 2 Honor ROII tea Tuesday 3 Aboite-Indian Meadows Operetta Wednesday 4 Ash Wednesday Student Government meeting Friday 6 Student Government Red Cross Bloodmobile Pep Assembly Saturday 7 Mississinewa Jazz Festival Monday 9 Nationalmusicin your schools week Florida Sea Camp class Tuesday 10 National Math Exams Faculty Meeting College visitation night Wednesday 11 Spanish Field trip English Literature-Auditorium National Honor Society induction banquet Human Physiology field trip to Luth- eran Hospital Publications goes to New York Thursday 12 Swing Choir Concert General Business field trip Environmental Science class trip Friday 13 Spartana issued Band Trinity -Auditorium 4th Saturday 14 Bishop Luers Swing Choir Contest Speech Regional Monday 16 Environmental Science Colorado trip class Parent Club meeting English Literature-Auditorium Tuesday 17 Saint Patrick's Day Child Development field trip Faculty Advisory Committee meeting Wednesday 18 Fine Arts practice Publications goes to Columbia.

Student Govern- ment election's were coming up which meant going out to campaign. Petitions had to be signed by 100 students in or- der to qualify for a candidate. Speeches were heard, votes were cast and elections were over. At about the same time, an- other election took place. Six- teen brave girls decided to take a shot at cheerleading tryouts.The girlswentthrough four different stages before the ballots were tabulated. Artsy subject. Mrs. Kathy Lewton as- sists her student on a new art project. They practiced, had a skill screening, met for interviews and tried out before the stu- dent body. For 13 lucky girls the practices and shot nerves were all worth it. Practice led to a 12th place finish for some jazz band mem- bers who participated in the Elmhurst Jazz Festival. Out of 19 participating bands, 12th isn't bad! After three long months of rehearsal the production of West Side Story finally hit the stage of the auditorium. A teaser was performed on an activity period to give stu- dents an idea of what to ex- pect if they attended a regular performance. The Child Development and Family Living classes man- aj' took a day off to take a trip to the March of Dimes Center, a hospital and a nursery school. This field trip was spent watching film strips, learning about Down's syndrome and observing children. What a packed day. The Journalism classes took a day off in April too. They drove down to Muncie, Indi- ana, to attend Journalism Day at Ball State. Here they at- tended different sessions on the newspaper, yearbook and photography. Maybe you could call the month of April a preparing month. Much of it was spent doing things for the future which meant showing the school what you were made of!- , -9-Q I ff 'A 4' -7-.M 511' 4 , ....-.- W.- ... .ill 1- Hmm, very interesting.

The month began with the Junior-Senior Prom. After a full school year, the plans all fell together to make for a per- fect evening at the Embassy. Well things weren't so per- fect for those who had sched- uling problems. The arena scheduling that everyone dreads all year was here again. Walking into the gym and looking at the closed class board made one ner- vous. And if your schedule didn't work out as planned, you sat at the problem table for an hour with Mrs. Sue Fults, Mr. Jack Quinn, Mr. James Manak or Mrs. Sally Tinkle. What a mess! After things got straight- ened out, you probably went back to a lecture or review in class over the semester or even the year. That's right, fi- nal exams were coming up! Especially for seniors! They took them a week earlier than everyone else. But how could anyone study with all of those award banquets going on? Fine Arts awards, sports awards, academic awards, Student Government awards were all scheduled in the course of six days. Athletes, scholars and musicians were remembered for their out- standing work and achieve- ments over the year. Graduation was an achievement too. Looking back at what you thought were four long years of high school, you realized it wasn't that long at all. It was a time to remi- nisce, smile, cry and leave Homestead behind. June 1st was the last school day of the year for 9th, 10th and 11th graders. When finals were over, students were free to enjoy the summer and look back. Look back on a year that is hopefully all fond memories.- You've got a friend! Sophomore Becky Uecker plays with her friend, Jaime, in Child Development class. 25.2531 Hit it!

C2533 lf you ever saw a girl in a psychedelic disco dress or a guy in a blue satin robe during the course of the year, don't worry. Those weren't the lat- est fashions from Paris. The people in these outfits were members of the Home- stead choir. The Fine Arts has several different singing groups ranging from a wild and crazy show choir to a small novice class. Mrs. Kim Durr, choral direc- tor, said many things were ac- complished this year and many new and great talents were revealed. The Performing Arts Choir, with its flamboyant style of singing, started out solidly on their feet and danced through the year successfully. They had performances for every occasion imaginable and com- peted in contests too. ln January, the singers went to Northside and competed in the NISBOVA jazz and swing Sitting in style. The Performing Arts poses for a picture at the train station for its 1940's show. choir contest, where they re- ceive a second rating. The largest event which the Performing Arts planned for was the Bishop Luers Swing Choir Invitational. The choir had started working -on their program in February. It con- sisted ofa story line compiled of songs from the '40's. Mrs. Durr commented, The gang placed 11th out of 18 groups. We went up seven places from last year. All we can do is keep getting better. The Chamber Singers was a group formed for the Yuletide season. They sang Madrigal style songs and competed in the NISBOVA state ensemble contest, receiving a superior ranking. In December, they hosted a Yuletide Feaste, serving roast boars head and figgy pudding. After dinner they gave a concert of favorite Christmas carols. They start- ed out in the beginning of school as a basically good choir and predominately blos- somed into a very proud en- semble, expressed Durr about her feelings of the Sym- phonic Choir. The Symphonic Choir was the schools more sophisticat- ed choir. They studied difficult classical literature and also sang a little pop music. They sang around the community and appeared at many aca- demic ceremonies including graduation. Being the least experienced group didn't stop the Concert Choir from joining the rest of the Fine Arts singers in vocally entertaining concert goers. They were a class consist- ing of 13 underclassmen who sang all kinds of contemporary music and were just an all- around easy going group. The choirs of Homestead lit- erally sang their hearts out. They met every day to work on bringing a little music into peo- ple's lives.- 1 .., nf N643 P if-1. 1-..efy, GN g, 4 llc' U1 D-limi' 4, 'n LL ,JD V1 Madrigal melodies.

They con- stantly hovered over the publi- cations room. But then, that was all part of being on the newspaper or yearbook staff. Every Tuesday and every other Wednesday, these staffs would be writing copy, drawing layouts, cropping pic- tures and sometimes, just goofing off. The 17 Spartana staffers met every day fifth period to put out the Spartana every other Friday. They set their goals early by revamping the newspaper's style, setting the goal of 18 issues and the hopes of publishing something the students would like. But problems were encoun- tered and only 15 issues were completed, four eight page papers were cut down to four papers and a shuffle of staff positions slowed everything down. Then it seemed the en- C3522 thusiasm was gone. But stu- derlts still felt that the new style that was used added to the quality of the paper. The Spartana co-editors, Coleen Easterday and Doug Stewart, admitted to having a hard year, but they made it after 15 issues and 15 very long Wednesday nights. Tuesday nights were year- book nights. Working on the Retrospect staff was different from newspaper in the way that the finished product wasn't seen until one year after its beginning. The production of the book started in the summer of 1980, with the selling of advertising and a trip to Ball State's Jour- nalism Workshop for five staff- ers. Goals such as 40 pages of color and the most number of pages in the book's history kept the 16 staff members working hard and staying on top of things. Staff morale was a big part of the yearbook. Co-editors Amy Warshauer and Helen Lit- chin felt that breaks such as birthday and Christmas par- The deadlines are over! Mr. Fitsko gives co-editor Doug Stewart a con- gratulations hug at graduation. ties really helped the staff through those tough dead- lines. Pleasing the students was another main objective for the staff. That's why they often stayed until after midnight to finish creative spreads. A few even spent the night one weekend! They could only hope that the students real- ized they were putting a histo- ry book full of a year's memo- ries together just for them. After approximately 500 hours of overtime, two dedi- cated staffs gave it their all to publish Homestead's only publications. After all of those dreaded deadlines, the feeling of accomplishment hovered over the publications room in- stead of dismay.- Relaxed atmosphere.

The week provided fun learning ex- periences for faculty and stu- dents alike. Unique Week officially started Monday, November 17, with Previews of Pro- gress , a visual and oral pre- sentation on the development of technology and energy al- ternatives. Students who at- tended were dismissed from their morning classes. Tuesday brought the first major activity of Unique Week. The Homestead Pot- pourri took place during the morning hours. Faculty and community guests offered their talents to instruct two, 75 minute mini-courses. Courses ranged from Braiding and He's a lifesaver! Doug Dettmer from the EMS Fire Department explains what to do in an emergency situation. Twisting Hair to Self-De- tense for Women and from Sailing tothe gastronomical delights of Mexican Cook- ing and Cooking a Greek Dinner for the gods. One fa- vorite was lce Sculpture with Mr. John Langley, the chef at the Wharf. Wednesday was Depart- mental Day. Business stu- dents attended a lecture on the opportunities in the busi- ness world entitled Trends in the Business World Out- looks for 198O. During lunch, the advanced art students dis- played their techniques in painting, drawing and working with clay. Math classes met the computer while home economics classes celebrat- ed with a pig roast. To ice the Unique Week cake, a Career Extravagan- za took place Thursday. Dur- ing the morning hours commu- nity guests spoke with students about their careers. Each student attended three 54 0 0' 'P !9z Ov fn 62 sessions ranging from ac- counting to translating to engi- neering. The whole week gave us all a relaxed break from regular classes.

Seniors r The Best of Senior Memories Constructive announcements Wearing his flashy construction hat, senior Kip Grosenick reads his ver- i sion of the morning announcements. After one year of being the ba- bies3 using the newness of having our drivers' license3 planning a very special junior prom3 and finally by be- ing the oldest, the 1981 senior class holds a lot of memories together. They all seem like they just hap- pened yesterday. Time passed very quickly and what seemed to be a ma- jor issue was just a mere memory in the minds and hearts of all. lt was a mental scrapbook that bulged with nostalgia and could only be appreciated by the few who exper- ienced every exciting minute. The uni- ty was like magic, no one worked for it, or pushed people together, it just hap- pened. But it was easy to see why the Class of '81 was united. The magic started when Aboite and Lafayette were mixed in seventh grade and trav- elled to Woodside for a year there. But after coming back to Homestead they began making their mark. Winning the float their freshman year, and then winning the sectional spirit bell, made the class feel they could top all. Juniors usually don't win Powder- puff, or so they thought, but the class proved everyone wrong again. And to prove it wasn't only a fluke, they cap- tured the victory as seniors. The magic seemed to flow for the Class of '81 their senior year also. They werethefirst to christenthe sen- ior lounge. They won the Homecoming Janice L.

Senior Molly O'Hara gives her officer's report as senior Cary Owens reads the agenda. ESenigrsj When it comes to picking up mem- bers of the opposite sex, I generally consider myself a fast mover. I base this on my first attempt. lwalked up to the girl, asked her for a date, and she said no. It didn't take long at all. I really couldn't understand why she turned me down so quickly. I'm tall, dark, handsome, intelligent and ex- tremely conceited. But seeing as the direct approach didn't work, I decided to try and impress her. My first course of action was to show off my job. fI'm a clean-up boy at a chicken farml. I left work and went straight over to her house. She opened the door, and before I could say anything she got this real funny look on her face and slammed the door. I tried to tell her that she would get used to the smell but she just pelt- Q . if ed me with stick-ups . I next tried sending her flowers. She ended up going out with the guy who delivered them. I couldn't understand why until I saw his Datsun 2802. I de- cided what I needed was a better car. So, l sold my Luthurainiun language record and bought a van. It was a good model: it only needed a few mi- nor things Clike seats, windows and an enginel. I got it looking pretty good and I drove over to her house and parked it in her driveway. When she came to the door, ltold her in a suave and sophisticated voice that I had come to take her for a drive in my dream machine. But when I turned around to show it to her, I saw the garbage men throw it in the truck. Still determined, I decided to try the present route.

Next I sent her something practi- cal, a cookbook. The next time, I saw her she shoved it down my throat. In a final attempt I sent her a dress that cost me S87.95. tAs it turned out, the dress was one size too big and she chewed me out for insinuating that she was fat.J Sometimes you just can't win. With an empty heart Kand bank ac- countl l marched up to her in the hall, put my arm around her and asked her to wear my class ring. She quickly agreed and ever since she has had it. Of course, l've never seen it and nei- ther have her friends. They kid and tell me that she sold it the next day while the price of silver was up again. But I know they are iust kidding.

Sound familiar? Sure it does. lt happened to all of us at one time or another. Just what did you do when situations like this occured? There were three possible ways that many students avoided embar- rassment and still made the teacher think they did their homework. Guessing was the most common way to get out of being put on the spot . Some people would rely on the person sitting behind them to whisper the answer, or someone else in the class might come to their rescue and 3 Linda D.

When using this last choice of the three, you must be careful. Some teachers know when you're talking in verbosity, but there are a large num- ber of ways to fake it. ln acting BS out, always try to use some big, long com- plicated words that will keep the teacher wondering what you are talk- ing about. Such could be the case in novels if you were asked a question about an author's little made up town, you may reply, The microcosm which was brought up amongst other complicat- ed verbatim overwhelmed me to no end, and therefore I can find no validity to why the author compiled the novel with such complexity. Of course, not getting homework done wasn't the only situation in which BS came in handy. Jammed lockers, pitstops and car trouble were always convenient excuses for being late to class. Students were great at coming up with quick lines, whether it was for no assignment, no note or being late for class. They always remembered to beluddle them with brilliance and baffle them with BS. - A microscopic view.

An imaginary world of rape, high crime, adultery and love. It began each weekday and concluded at a very suspenseful moment. This was the soap opera saga. Girls and guys arrived home from school and tuned into their favorite soap to discover who was fooling around with who, how someone was murdered and where the lovers' next meeting place would be. Daytime dramas took on a new di- mension in television. They were fin- ished being something for housewives to watch while the family was away. It was move over ladies because the kids are movin' in.

'Move over ladies because the kids are movin' in. the lives of fictional characters in fic- tional towns such as Port Charles, Landview or Pine Valley were more suspenseful than those of another. But they soon had competition from places such as DaIlas, Flamingo Road, Knots Landing and Mid- land Heights. Nighttime soaps were a new sensa- tion, led by Dallas, with its puzzling question, Who shot J.Fi.? And it wasn't long before five nights out of seven we could tune in and see even more soapy suspense. So lar those of us who have been looking for some suspense and ad- venture in the Days of Our Lives, maybe we should travel down Fla- mingo Road, passed the General Hospital, through Dallas, and by the time it's The Edge of Night, we will have had all of the adventure one could take in the course of a day. Lounging the brain. Contrary to pop- ular belief, studying does take place in the senior lounge, and senior Brent Poorman can prove it! is 'Seniors - The Best Way to Spend Money A woman in politics! Being student government president means getting up and telling it like it is for senior Kristi Parker. No matter how far we tried stretch- ing that S10 a week allowance, it nev- er had enough elasticity to go as far as we wanted. Five dollars for gas, 65c for lunch, a dollar here a dollar there, poof, it was gone! Most students would agree that athletic events, pizza, albums and dates were at the top ofthe list over the year when it came to spending money. Senior John Clifton said, I en- joy spending money on the things in life that I enjoy, such as movies, food and dates. But those enjoyable things in life were expensive. It cost 33.75 for a movie ticket and a mediurr pizza was more than six dollars. Gas was essential, but it was also the real money grabber. And with the constant rise in price, some found it took as much as half of their total spending money just for transporta- tion. But despite the high prices, most students managed to get most of the things they wanted even if it meant saving up for a long period of time. l saved up for three months in order to goto California. That was hard, com- mented Julie Griffin, a junior. Ot course, those of us who were really hard up for money used the pen- ny in a jar method. After putting end of the day change tmainly penniesl, in a jar for months, the accumulated change would really add up! The future was something to think about too.

With typewriters in big demand, senior Doug Stewart uses Mrs. Phyllis Nelson's in order to meet a Spartana deadline. lfSJ.ff..il The last thing you want to do when you come home from an exhausting and frustrating day at school is home- work. So what do you do about it? Nothing. You simply don't do it. This is com- monly known as procrastination You kick back all afternoon and enjoy yourself. You fill the day with such ac- tivities as watching T.V., talking on the phone, cross country skiing, sledding, shopping, or maybe satisfying your exhaustion by crashing for a little snooze.

Ju- nior Laurie Smith said, I spend time talking to my family or busying myself around the house. Sometimes l'Il even pick a fight with my little sister, just to get out of doing it. Some people go so far as to get down to the nitty gritty such as: count- ing the tiles on the bathroom floor, reorganizing the cans ot soup in the pantryg looking through old photo al- bums: talking to the plants, or dusting the mailbox. But whatever you do, you do your best to avoid that disgusting pile of books on your desk. Sooner or later, you know you're going to have to do it, but it feels so good to just stall as long as possible. But what if there are other things you want to put off. Like emptying the dishwasher, or folding the clean clothes? Actually, procrastinating on chores isn't much different than home- work procrastination. Needless things are done in order to stall and in the meantime, you mom is pulling her hair out trying to get you to work. With any discipline at all, maybe you'll sit down to do your homework at 8:00 or 9:00 p.m. and hope that you can get it all done before school the next day. Or, that you can get your chores done before bedtime so that you won't fall asleep on top of the dry- er. Anyway you look at it, procrastina- tion is a never ending story. - Ahh, break time!

When all else fails-cheat! That's the attitude many had when it came to not under- standing what the test they were taking was all about. But how did they go about cheat- ing? There were several tried and true methods of cheating which have kept many a stu- dent in school. Copying off of a classmate was the most common way to cheat. It was just a matter of sitting by a smart person. Good eyesight was a plus too. Students had different feel- ings on what type of tests were the easiest to cheat on. Junior Will McDermott felt, lt's easier to cheat on math History prevails. Juniors Laura Eck- rich, Greg Musi and Dave Burns know the importance of studying for U.S. History tests. tests as opposed to English testsg it's easier to look over and see numbers rather than words. Will also said, History tests would be easy to cheat on too, because most of the tests were on computer cards. lt's impossible to cheat on es- say tests. Senior Todd Buschman felt, English tests are easier to cheat on. They're usually stuff like matching. lt's easier to copy a,b,c or d rather than a whole math problem. Todd explained one cheating meth- od: l'd just ask another per- son to turn their paper my way. Then l'd try to hide my eyes while I was getting the answer, so the teacher couldn't tell what I was doing. A different type of cheating fy.

So when you have absolute- ly no idea how to do that ge- ometry proof or what those vo- cabulary words mean, you may have to resort to cheat- ing.

Moans and groans were always heard from up- perclassmen when an inno- cent freshman played a song on the jukebox which they didn't like. But what kind of music did students prefer? Spartans, for the most part, were not in favor of the mellow music which stole the nomina- tions for the 1980 Grammy Awards. The reason is prob- ably because the award-win- ning songs The Rose, Sail- ing, and Magic were popular during the summer and fall months rather than the rest of the school year.

What most students did pre- fer was rock n' roll. The punk song Whip it, by DEVO, was the choice of many people, while the number one songs, TNT, Take it on the Run, and Back in BIack, shared by the groups REO Speedwa- gon and ACXDC, were also fa- vorites. Students said their at- traction to the harder rock songs was a combination of the good beat, lyrics and sound. Senior Dave Barfell stated, It tpunk and hard rockl gives me the chance to let go of my- self and express my emotions and feelings. I become a person differ- ent from what people really see in me. My tensions leave and I feel happier when I listen to rock music. But whether you prefer Barry Manilow's I Made it Through the Rain, Career Opportunities by the Clash, or Swan Lake by Tchaikov- sky, it was certain that music had the power to make one dance, sing, romance or just sit back and relax.

At the end ofa hectic week of rising early, trudging through homework and late night cramming, one was apt to be caught giving exuberant shouts of T.G.l.F. Yep, an- other wonderful weekend, time to go out and raise some cane. There was so much ground to cover and so many wild 'n crazy things to do! Wild's the word alright. Ju- nior Pete Lennington ex- plained: One night in the mid- dle of February, I went to a beach party in someone's basement. Everyone had shorts and sunglasses on. It was a total crack-up. We had a really rowdy time. Making racquet. After his return, ju- nior Todd Lassus follows through looking as though it was a tough shot. Todd was a member of our state- Sometimes, wild times meant destructive times. A lot of students got their kicks by egging, soaping or throwing rolls of toilet paper on the house of their least favorite teacher. Students were quick to admit it made for an expen- sive weekend. One junior said, lt cost a lot of money in order to get your teachers back, but it's worth it! For those who weren't into a rowdy time, there were always those quiet evenings with a date. Sophomore Lisa Russell commented: I have fun going with a date to dinner and a movie. Every once in a while stu- dents would go to concerts playing in town.

Let's skip Eng- lish today. Situations like this weren't out of the ordinary: as a matter of fact they were quite com- mon. Classes were skipped for reasons such as not finishing assignments, getting out of tests, dislike of teachers or it may have been a Monday or Friday-the usual skip days. To some, the process in- volved with skipping was Arduous artists. Sophomores Lisa El- lis, Laura Braden and Barb Buskirk find the perfect spot in the circle drive to complete their drawing assignment. K' '. 'X in 1 . ,Ig 5 '..' s Q , ., 'V' in , .

But to others the process was more complex. This is how junior Patty Mueller skips. Go to the office, and get a pass to your guidance counselor. Use the pass to get out of class, then take off. That way the teacher thinks you're with your counselor and your coun- selor thinks you're in class. If one planned on skipping a whole day of school, there were even trickier methods used. Sophomore Melanie Ftenner said, Just get on the bus in the morning and ask the driver to let you off at the next addition because you really feel sick. Then walk home. By that time your mom and dad . , az, '-. l , Don't play sick because parents always know when you're faking, she conclud- ed. Sophomore Tim thinks you should just, Set off for school in your car, but nev- school. Fagan er quite make it to Don't goto places like McDon- aldsg it's too obvious. Then just go home at 2:3O. Now you know how some people skip. Go ahead, give it a try. Oh one thing, don't get caught unless you like going to school on Saturdays. I Sunny side down.

But one course that students were ca- pable of teaching each other, but wasn't offered, was teen- age slang. Why do we give words dif- ferent meanings? For in- stance, the word gross origin- ally meant bulk or large, but students have changed the meaning. According to junior Marc Tutrinoli, it means dis- gustingly sick. He said, Al- most anything can be called gross nowadays. But, why Bumping buddies. Sophomore Alison Casillo may need some help from sophomore Dave Ruby after she bumps the volleyball during a coed game in gym. -.X tk K A f 5 4 yA.' 1 47 I 5 H E rr 9. ui an Q.. JY lv.

Sophomore Melissa El- lis stated, lt's probably out of laziness. lt was popular for students to use phrases sarcastically too. When something was questionable, one may have said, l'm too sure. lmitating a Saturday Night Live ac- tress by saying l'm sure with a New York accent was another way. Freshman Sharon Wilson believes that a slang word such as ain't was used to aggravate English teach- ers. The more ain't was used the more upset the teacher got. There were even popular in- sults used. A person who was slow at understanding jokes would have been called a la W-, N' Av' Ei... N, space cadet or an air head. Senior Maureen Pan feels slang words were used because they have easier, short, more concise mean- ings. One song had a lot to do with a common expression used all year. Another one Bites the Dust, a song by Queen, was heard all year, es- pecially during sporting events. Slang is different from place to place and from time to time, but it's here to stay. So, you may as well learn it, or you'lI be considered a nerd. I Handy can-dy box.

They are Home- stead students' nominees for best actor and actress. Choices for best actor, in- cluding John Belushi, were nu- merous.

On the other hand, junior Ann Matthews stated, Robert Redford always does high quality, political stuff, not the Burt Reynolds' flicks. The most unusual actor was nomi- nated by senior Molly O'Hara. According to Molly, the best actor is senior Andy Fishering because, He's so cute. Guys and girls seemed to agree on the best actress. Barbra Streisand was first choice, with Sally Fields and Miss Piggy running a close second. Most people agreed that Streisand's singing and acting capabilities combined to make her an all around per- former. She is Qreat at what she does.

When you were young, what did your mom do to make you feel better after you fell off of your bike? Did she give you a piece of candy? lce cream? Bubble gum?

Washing down regular meals was usually done with a tall glass of milk. But milk wasn't necessarily the most favorite beverage students preferred. Let's face it. They sure didn't drink milk at par- ties. Any kind of alcohol was the refreshment served at par- ties. Students' favorite? Beer was the biggest response overall. But mixed drinks were a nice change of pace. When the party was over, all would carefully drive home in Camaras, Firebirds, Hondas or the '66 Buick you wished was a Datsun 28Ozx. Every- body dreamt of having that special car. Sophomore Kristy Winn likes Broncos because, and more kegs in them. Ju- nior Todd Phillips went for a sportier model: a Corvette- definitely. There were definitely cer- tain radio stations to listen to while in that dream car. WMEEKFMD, WPTHCFMJ, WXKEKFMJ and WQHKCAMJ were the area's popular sta- tions. And when it came to good music for freshman Carolyn Bean, WXKE was her station simply because, lt's good jam. Whatever station we listened to, it had to play music that we could get into. What was the favorite when we had to get into comfort- able clothes? That's easy. Blue jeans. Why were jeans so well liked? Junior Dianna Crumpacker said it was be- but still be comfortable. However, clothes changed at about the same time sea- sons did. And the changing of seasons meant the changing of moods. lf you were one who loved looking at the fall colors seen on trees in, say October, you probably started most au- tumn days off in a good mood. But junior Mary Ann Gandolfo's favorite season is spring. She explained, lt's like the begin- ning of the year to me. Every- thing seems new. It didn't matter what time of year it was to let your favorite food, car, radio or clothing add a little zing to your day. And as the song says, Just simply remember your favorite things, and everything feels al- right. I Sweet sensation.

Deciding on the favor- ite movie of the year is always a controversial subject. Many people prefer comedies while others like dramatic films with more meaning. The drama, Ordinary Peo- ple took second place in the race for the favorite movie. James Pan, sophomore, jok- ingly said, I liked 'Ordinary People' because it's ordi- nary. On the intellectual side, most students agree that it was true to lifeg it dealt with real life situations, and it had deep meaning and moral. Comedies seemed to be preferred by most people. Disection perfection. Freshman Vin- cente Torrez uses dissecting instru- ments in his worm project. wr Private Benjamin, starring Goldie Hawn, ranked third. Hawn did very well this year because Seems Like Old Times, another film she starred in, was nominated by many people as their favorite movie. The favorite film overall was Caddyshack, a spoof about caddies and their life on the golf course. An anonymous sophomore said, Caddyshack' showed the country club life as it really is Movies starring macho men did not get chosen for fa- vorite movie too frequently. Big muscles and fists were knocked down in the race for favorite film. Very few ma- cho films came out this year, which indicates the change in what the public prefers.

Mushy movies, usually pre- ferred by girls, did not do so well either. Again, not many mushies were seen on the screen over the year. Sophomore Jean Rudek said, They tthe mushy mov- iesb take you away from reali- ty.

Phrases like See Dick run, Hey that's neatol, and When's re- cess?, were dead gi- veaways. Try using big words like Manifest Destiny and man's inhumanity to man. Most social studies teachers would have told you that the average upperclassman doesn't know what they mean. But, if they were used, they would make one look intelligent.

For teachers, when the 2:27 bell rang it was time to relax and exhale. Hallelujah! The kids are gone! Most teachers left the school by 3:00 to attend to their families. Facul- ty members Steve Beights, Barbara Roth, Max Hollis and Kim Durr re- turned home in the evening to children who really wanted Mom or Dad to play with them. Mrs. Tina Weddle even went as far as to play house with her daughter. While we see some teachers at school decked in dresses or suits, many leave school in order to change into their sports wear . Mr. Jim Manak stayed in shape throughout the year by playing intramural basketball, running and weightlifting. Tennis, cross-country skiing and bike riding were Mrs. Susan Meyers' favorite sporting activities. Mr. Jay Hammel really got out and enjoyed the out- doors by back-packing, canoeing, op- erating his 80 acre farm and fishing at his secret spot in Michigan. It was no secret that Mr. Denny Bechtelheimer enjoyed drama. Not only did he direct two school plays, but he directed one play at the Arena Dinner Theater and , -s F . wi 3 f C1 . lx. ,ft he fl! an-'Y .4 , .,,.,, rs ff 1, ' Zafff 2- .gc . 6- 7' rt f f- . fm fb. i- 'n--- sg 63, .

Another theatrically in- clined teacher was Mrs. Laura He- trick, who had a role in The Curious Savage at Arena. While some were out playing their role, others were out playing their in- struments.

It seemed just when times were going slow, something happened to lift our spirits. final exam dulldrums got ev- eryone down. Not Mr. Herb Meyer! The News-Sentinel carried a special article on his teaching techniques and the personal touch he used with his students. He was even dubbed as one of the favorite teachers among students. Out of all of the Campus Life affiliated schools in Fort Wayne, a student from our school won the Miss Campus Life contest.

Sitting through a rainy powderputf game, sophomores Irene Cuellar and Carrie Zimmerman tough it out with a trusty umbrella. ln between the best times and those sort of ordinary times, were the worst of times. Sorry to say. Being an election year, somebody had to lose. And President Jimmy Carter left his seat to Ronald Reagan. Ev- ery president tries to do his best, but former President Carter had his share of prob- lems, and it probably Cost him his re-election. On November 4, 1979, 65 Americans were taken hostage in Iran, the be- ginning ofa long 444 days. Not only were those Americans taken captive, but an Ameri- can journalist, Cynthia Dwyer, was also. This year was hard on ev- eryone, especially on pock- ets. And as the price of gaso- line rose to S1.35 a gallon tand steadily risingl, food prices and clothing were too. Even the price of pizza. Dad remem- bers getting it for .25c a slice! And when tax time came around, students who had a job lost at least one-half their pay to IRS. How depressing! We all felt pretty sick after paying so much, and getting so little, but the winter bIahs made everyone sicker. And the flu epidemic reached its peak in January, over 150 per- cent higher than last year. The song Tie a Yellow Rib- bon 'round the Old Oak Tree made a big comeback while the hostages were in Iran. But this wasn't the only song to make it big. On December 8, 1981, former Beatle John Len- non was shot by Mark David Chapman, and immediately his record albums sold by the mil- lions. Spirits were just about as low as they could get at this time, and it sure took away from the umph of things. Sometimes throughout the year spirits never went up, as when the girls' restroom was set on fire, or creative van- dalism such as smashed ice cream cones on restroom mir- rors made spirits roll down hilI . The new face lift the school received rose most spirits. But painting over the . G . 4 . l I E Wors7t7gf . .. 3 school's pride and joy, the Spartan head, was on every- one's list as a mistake. And even though the school re- ceived a new look, it cost over 358,000 to achieve it. That's a big chunk in today's economic situation. Fortunately for sports, they were at their best, even though the boys' basketball team had a loss to Whitko right at the beginning of their winning streak. For those who had to suffer a broken leg as did junior Pete Lennington in football or the football players who had to practice three times a day in August, it wasn't quite at itsbest. Those hot summer prac- tices for the football players could never compare with those sub-zero temperatures we had to put up with in the winter. Some said it was the coldest winter ever. And stat- ed one cold student, The weather seems like the worst part of the school year. No matter how cold it might have gotten, we kept on work- ing, especially the newspaper and yearbook staffs, right up to those dreaded deadlines. For them, that was the worst part of the whole year. If it wasn't for the worst of times, there never would have been the best of times. So, hanging in there 'till the end really paid off in the long run even in the worst of times.- Locked in.

'.M,,,,,...--- We made it through the worst of times, and enjoyed the best of times, but there were those things that just happened all the time. Getting up day after day, ev- ery morning was the chore we all hated. But once we were up and at 'em all went smoothly. lt seemed like every week- day went the same. And com- ing to school on the bus was the most exciting thing that happened all day. And if you missed a day, hopefully you didn't forget to bring a note from mom when you returned. We were all prepared for those second period an- nouncements or the morning roll call. After spending the entire day receiving unwanted as- signments, you were ready for a regular night of studying to prepare for those three tests scheduled one hour after an- other. Tests weren't exactly the most fun pastime, but we end- ed up getting them all the time. Vacations were one thing we didn't mind getting though. And it seemed we were always waiting to have one. When we did get a vacation and we were supposedly relaxing, we were being bombarded all the time with politics. Especially this year with the presidential elections, local elections, hostage crisis in Iran, boycott of the Olympics and the inva- sion of Afghanistan by Russia. Being bombarded with poli- tics might have been better than being bombarded with homework, but thank good- ness we got a break every week-Friday! T.G.l.F! And, of course, Fridays meant the usual basketball and football game. What would another dull week of homework be without letting our spirits out at a game? All that talent we saw out on Doing it write. Freshman Tracy Davis finishes her biology assignment in the library during study hall. Se-election time. Students listen to the presidential candidates during our own mock election in the audito- rium. L4 lftlifheil the court or field just didn't come suddenly. It took prac- tice. And everyday our ath- letes were practicing to be at their best. But not only were our athletes practicing but the casts of Dark of the Moon and West Side Story were too. And all those nights of memorizing lines paid off. While the Robert Ftedfords and Goldie Hawns of our school were rehearsing, the echos of the band could be heard. Everyday, all the time, the band was always going for itl After practices many stu- dents headed to grab a pizza and munch out for awhile. That pizza satisfied all the hunger pains anyone could have ever had but reaching into your pocket to pay the waitress you realized you failaim. . were broke tlike all the timej. And in this day and age, being broke was a way of life. Another way of life was to fill up your gas tank. Most stu- dents would rather have walked than pay S1.25 a gal- long and the price kept on ris- ing! Walking might have been a good idea when the weather was right, but during the winter months snow kept everyone inside. And we all hoped it would. Getting a day off of school because of snow was always wished for. Some of the things we did got pretty monotonous and boring. But that isn't to say we won't miss them.

Naturally, people would buy and sell it a lot be- cause it was worth so much. lt was priced at over S500 an ounce one week. Gold was simply a precious thing to have. But other things were pre- cious to us also. Since jobs were so rare, those who had them did all they could to hold onto them. And what would we have done without Pizza Hut and McDonalds on weekends? We wouldn't have had any- where to go after games.

No matter what custodial task the man was doing, he always seemed to have a smile on his face. His name-Bounnhou Kounbandith.

Whether it's having Board- walk with a hotel on it or scor- ing the winning points for your team, games bring thrills. There is one activity that many people don't consider a game even though it involves emotion, practice, fast breaks, spectators, sets and special clothes. This pastime is acting. To get involved with performing, as in games, plays are the best place to start. Fort Wayne has its own practice field for beginning ac- tors, the Civic Youtheater.

LYNN'S SHELL Near By And Neighborlyn Acting Civic minded might just be the key Matthews commented, Start- ing at the Civic Youtheater is mandatory for a career be- cause there is so much more to acting than just what goes on stage. You can acquire discipline and learn responsi- bilities. Being involved can change your personality by letting you express yourself more, not being afraid to ask questions in class, and to be more outgoing. So the next time all of you aspiring actors and actresses nervously walk onto the stage for a performance, relax it's going to take a while for you to warm-up, just as it does in sports.

The topics aroused usually involve drugs, sex, loneliness, fam- ilies, death and peer pressure. This gathering is known as Campus Life. Two types of meetings alternate every oth- er week. One is insight, which is very serious and deals di- rectly with the Christian faith. Regular meetings use scrip- tures from the Bible to com- pare with the problems we all have. There are group activi- ties such as singing, ski trips, Florida trips and a day or two lfeliclsil 'We are family' could easily be their theme at an amusement park. These activities added to the fun of learning about one another and the Christian faith. Campus Life gives students a broader view on religion and at the same time helps them deal with everyday problems. Senior Jan Albert commented, lt gives kids the exposure to Christ that they don't get at home. Attending Campus Life can affect your life and change your outlooks.

Wrong. He uses all of the write lines For senior Andy Przybyla that is. Andy wanted piano les- sons. ln about the fourth grade, he took an interest in the piano. I was amazed at how beautiful a piano could sound. I wanted to learn to make such sounds on a pi- ano. So Andy's parents gave him lessons. He practiced every day and it began to pay off. Since then, he has won many NISBOVA contests and earned scholarships to sum- mer conservatories. He also began composing his own mu- sic. One of his compositions won the Fort Wayne Philhar- monic's Young Artists' Com- position Contest. He earns money by playing at parties and churches. Now Andy is a senior and there is no doubt his parents are proud of their pianist. He applied to many colleges and was accepted to all of them. He chose indiana Pianist's perfection. Before a perfor' mance, senior Andy Przybyla prac- tices the piano in the auditorium. o Oo' as o 6' University with expectations of graduating with a composi- tion major and maybe a piano major.

The library has grown since a new wing was built over the original Andrew Car- nigie building. The new wing was opened January 19, 1981 and consists of many departments. The Geneology Department is the second largest of its kind un- der one roof in the United States. Sophomore Michelle Telley, who has used the gen- eology section, commented The downtown library has the most complete records in gen- eology around. Public non-profit organiza- tions can produce their own television shows in the Tele- communication Center locat- ed on the wing's second floor. The young adult's section for grades seventh through high school is also located on the new wing. The old wing was opened in July of 1968. There is an Adult Reference Department, Flead- er's Services, Childrens' Ser- vices, Governmental Docu- ment Department, and Business and Technology De- partment.

WXKE 104FM is known in Fort Wayne as the rock album station. The music played is targeted for 18 to 34 year olds. Still, many Homestead students listen to it. One of those is freshman Pam Miller. I like listening to the entire album instead of one or two songs from it, she said. 'twig - Rgtding H-I-ld' rocking to the radio Another popular Fort Wayne station is Rock 95. Junior Sandy Lake commented, They play the most popular songs and still give a variety. Although rock is popular for teenagers, country is good X ' for our ears . Sophomore Ai- mee Adkins said, Every coun- try song tells a story and the music makes you feel good in- side. The Hawk takes every- one back to Country Roads on Fort Wayne's most popular country station, WQHK. The majority of teenagers listen to WMEE FM97. Junior Sally Kumfer commented, I listen to it because l like the softer rock music. Even if you aren't into hog reports, WOWO is still a great place to be to hear school closings along with WMEE. Most students aren't in- clined to listen to the easy lis- tening music of WEZV 102Ftv1. Says sophomore Angela France, It's okay if you have insomnia.

Fort Wayne's Fox Island is a recreational park with that natural look and feel which many Homestead students take advantage of. Cross country skiing, sled- ing and ice skating are a few of the activities available at the park. Freshman Diane Mills said, It's a nice place to goin the winter when you don't have anything to do. Along with the skiing trails there are hiking trails. Sopho- more Brett Graham, who helped clear the trails, com- mented, Fox Island lets your Sign with saying.

There is an animal sanctu- ary in the park, and to make the scenery complete, many of the animals are walking around the park without being guarded.

The people working there bring color and excitement to tourists by dressing up and taking on the chores of John Whistler's original fort. The fort is known as the liv- ing museum because of the originality that is portrayed by the characters. Volunteer and paid people must go through a detailed training course be- fore working at the fort. Each employee takes on the actual role of one of the original 90 inhabitants. Sophomore Kath- leen Telley commented, I thought it was really impres- sive the way they were dressed. The museum is lo- cated away from modern life. Meals are cooked and food is grown on the grounds. Sopho- more Bryan Bonahoom said, I think the Old Fort demon- strates, in a very good way, what real life back on the fron- tier was like. E The fort is also adapted for other uses such as catoring parties and letting groups ex- perience the actual type of life portrayed. Candlelight tours and an ethnic Christmas are other special events offered. Take a journey back in time by churning some butter, bak- ing bread, or feeding the ani- mals, and relive the kind of life our ancestors did.- Getting settled.

The list goes on and on. Can you believe that there are people in this world who actually have names such as these? Obviously these are names that are very rareg most people have very common names. In Homestead alone there are 27 Johns, 25 Loris, 18 Mikes and 25 Lisas, just to name a few. And the definition of a name, like the ones here, is a word or symbol that dis- tinctly describes a person or thing. That's accordingto the Webster's Seventh New Col- legiate Dictionary. To get these creative names, parents often refer to baby books when they are looking for a name for their new bundle of joy. The cardi- nal rule that is found in almost all baby books is to resist the temptation to be humorous or cute when matching a baby's name with his surname. The name that is chosen for a per- son will be part of his identity and personality. Names such as Olive Green, Rose Bud and Ima Stone are cute, but Iet's give the child a chance. Sandy is fine also but match it with a last name of Beach and you could have gags rolling out the rest of the poor child's life. Using these clever names could also affect the degree of a person's suc- cess in business or profes- sional life. But even when the name seems well chosen by the par- ent, the child is often stuck with a nickname later on in life by his friends. This could be just as frustrating as a poorly chosen pun or play on words for a name and surname. Some of the nicknames that were floating around our halls were: Spaz, Meat, Heindrick, Goob, Sky, Pudge, Magic, J.R., Spud, Squid, Uncle Bob, Louie, Wally, Rollie, Doc, Spa- cey and even Cuz. Maybe they'lI stick and maybe they won't. Only time will tell if the person will keep his magic touch or keep being the spa- cey person everyone thinks he is. But whatever you are called, whether it be by a com- mon name or a nickname, re- member that it has probably helped mold you into the per- son you are today. Be glad the names Octavia and Marma- duke aren't around much these days. Maybe parents should stick to John, Lori, Mike or Lisa and just forget about being too creative. It sure would make baby name books smaller and complicat- ed names more obsolete.- X i Anastasia, Gail 144 Anderson, Elfrieda 49 Anderson, Greer 160 Anderson, Lisa 132 Anderson, Pam 168 Andrews, Christina 88 152 Anhaeuser, Heidi 74, 75, 144 Anthony Wayne Corporation 190 April 120 Arford, Michael 77 144 Armstrong, Edward 152 Armstrong, Timothy 160 213 Arthur, James 132 Ashby, David 21, 62 132 214 Ashley, Greg 152 Ashby, Laura 152 Ashley, Greg 152 Athletic Attic 183 Atlantis Travel Service 181 Autographs 222 224 Avagian, Jennifer 152 Avila, Alicia 13 144 212 Avila, Marita 21 132 173 Awards 34 Ayres, Carl 152 Ayres, Carl E. 188 Avres, Jeffrey 160 Bandido's 137 Bangert, Curt 152 Bangert, Elizabeth 144 Bangert, Laura 152 Bannister, Matthew 63, 160 Barfell, David 26, 32, 120, 132, 148, 149 Barfell, Dick 63 Bartling, Carl 152 Bartling, Lisa 160 Baseball 82 Backofen, Mafy 168, 188 Baskeiban 68' 70 Baeuerle, Ouintin 160, 161 Bassett.

Some people get hung up about having a common surname such as Smith, John- son, Williams or Miller. Others would die for a simple name, because they are stuck with a name like Quackenberger, Fingleheimer or Pshzabilamiz. Many surnames, when mixed with their first names can form silly little sentences, such as ls Curt Poor? Rick Ott to be a photographer, Is There once was a lady named Shirley Lax. She mar- ried a man named Herman Greene, so her name became Shirley Greene. But she soon changed her name back to Shirley Lax, because she didn't want to be an ex-Lax.

When Claire gets married, she'lI be an ex-Kahn. their corresponding first names and still form a descent name such as David James- James David, Charles Brandt- Brandt Charles, and Scott Fre- drick-Fredrick Scott. No matter what you have for a surname, don't fret. You're not alone.

It's halftime at a home football game as the band per- forms forthe audience. Boppin' down. The Sadie Hawkins Dance meant cutting the rug for senior Beth Carstens and juniors Anita Parker and Mary Carstens. Never to return. Graduate Andy Fi- shering leads the way off the stage with a group of others close behind. grown up, we've become foot- ball and tennis players and the stars of many other games. Spelling bees and books on Dick, Jane and Spot were our grade school academic activi- ties. But in high school we read Arthurian Legends and wrote 10 page term papers. This is what we did inside. Waiting for the mailman at the mailbox or becoming friends with the ice cream man used to be quite common. lt wasn't uncommon at all to hear someone say, hi to Bounnhou in the hall, or ask Mrs. Nelson to do a special fa- vor at any point over the year. Now, they had become our fa- miliar mugs.- 220 Closing Shining stars. The senior girls huddle during halftime of the powderpuff game. They won 20-12.
