In the school system, he insures that proper curriculum is fol- lowed, that cafeterias and grounds are kept up. He also controls personnel and money and legal matters. Mr. Fer- man likes his job because it’s never routine and he gets to see the results of his efforts. Ray Curran has been high school principal for two years. Besides the duties that most students realize, Mr. Curran is in charge of establishing the curriculum, designating where and how money is spent, and evaluating teachers. He likes his job because he advises teachers and has over- all control of the school. Mr. Curran also enjoys working with the students of HAHS. Jack Zimmerman has been high school vice principal for the past two years. His job is supervising and scheduling sports activities and seeing that there is transportation for these events. Mr. Zimmerman enjoys getting to know the students better through his new job. 14 Mr. Ray Curran: Principal Mr. Jack Zimmerman: Assistant Principal Make HAHS Tick Mrs. Norma Riley, clerk, discusses office business with secretary Mrs. Vivian Donaldson.

Among other “fun” experiences, many were threatened by the upper classmen to be thrown into the swamp. In the fall, they elected two girls to represent them on the homecoming court. The girls they picked were Jenny Brown, escorted by her father John Brown, and Tammy Marry, escorted by her father Bob Marry. The freshmen’s theme for their float was, “Snoopy and the Red Barron”. The class put a lot of hard work into it and took third place. Class Officers; sitting, from left: D. Wolf, Pres.; J. Peacock, Treas.; Standing: L. Weber Sec.; L. Shorthouse, Vice Pres.; R.

As usual, the sophomore class ordered their class rings and most eagerly participated in drivers training classes.

The 1978-79 seniors started their final year of high school by showing the underclassmen their super spirit and class. The class homecoming float featuring Fat Albert took third place. They were honored to have Sally Enerson crowned as home- coming queen. Her senior court included Cassie Swailes and Anne Webster. To raise money for graduation, the seniors sponsored a dance featuring “Sound Dimensions. They placed second in the Sponge Week events. The class flower was a silk white rose. The song was Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow by “Fleetwood Mac,” and the class motto, “Look not into the past at what we were, but into the future at what we can be.” The 1979 seniors thank their class advisor, Mr. Dave Sheely, for his fine help and support throughout the year. Many are sad to see this senior class leave and memories of them will remain a long time at Hudson High School. 40 Keena Allan Corine Bagley Joe Baxter Tammy Belfy 41 Connie Borck Lynette Bishop Russell Braun Dan Brockway Jeff Brown Paula Brown Sara Blanks 42 Lisa Burcroff Kirk Creger Darlene Clark Linda Capper Shari Day 43 Scott Gilpin Sheryl Goll Beth Gutierrez Melissa Greg Tim Goodlock Rubina Habib Anthony Hackett 45 Allyn Ham Dennis E.

Competing in the LCAA, the Tig- ers tied for first in dual meets with a record of 5-1. At the league meet, the Tigers put up a good fight but came out short in third place. At the regionals, the Tigers per- formed even better by placing third out of 16 teams, upsetting an eight year record of non-state competition for the Harriers.

Varsity lost its first three league matches. This hurt, but they came fighting back, winning their next six out of eight. Hudson entered the league match tied for third place with Addison, and hoping to finish second behind Manchester. They finished fourth in the meet and league. At regionals Hudson placed 12th out of 23 teams. Making All League first team was Tracy Bowlby and second team All League, Rick Milligan. Most Valua- ble Player was Rick Milligan.

The cheerleaders remained per- sistent as they tried to raise school spirit through the year. Both squads attended summer cheerleading camps and a clinic in the fall. The cheerleaders showed off their “little people” in the home- coming parade and treated the student body to an outside assem- bly. To raise money to attend next year’s cheerleading camp, the girls sold candy bars, bringing in $445.00. Varsity cheerleaders from left, bottom row: L. Pajoff, S. Blanks, A. Bade. Top row: C.

The year started off with a sound 40-16 tromping over Napole- on. A heartbreaker followed as the Tigers suffered a 10-18 loss to Bliss- field after having the ball inside the Royal 10 yard line four times in the final quarter. The next victory was over Moren- ci with a score of 26-12. After that game came a horrid losing streak in which the Tigers dropped consecu- tive league games to Clinton and Manchester. However, the team got back on its feet by massacring On- sted 35-0. The team’s next game against the undefeated Dundee Vi- kings. The two teams battled back and forth for control of the ball, but in the end it was the Dundee Vikings who prevailed. In the season’s final game, the Hillsdale Hornets jumped out to a 12-0 lead on two Tiger miscues. The Tigers fought back gallantly only to lose once again. The honor of Most Valuable Play- er was awarded to Matt McCarty. Matt also received the Most Valua- ble Back award. Pat Wollet received the Most Valuable Lineman award. Shawn Creger was named Most Im- proved Player. Chip Ames and Mark Johnson were selected the 1979 co- captains. J.V.’s Roar To Victory The Little J.V.’s roared to first place in the LCAA during the 1978 season. The J.V.’s posted a league record of 13-5 and an overall record of 10-2.

J.V.’s Triumph Assistant coach Evenson helps J.V. squad. The 1978 J.V. football team exper- ienced a very rewarding season with a winning record of 6-2-1. The future Tigers proved themselves as win- ners by fulfilling their team goals of becoming a football family and be- lieving in three magic letters. They also wanted to make some memories, such as come from behind victories over the Addison Panthers. Outstanding players for the J.V. Tigers were: Don Johnston - Most Valuable Player; Randy Chilcote - Offensive Back; Bill Clark - Offensive Lineman; John Peacock - Defensive Back; Steve Guest - Defensive Line- men; and Rick Riley - Unsung Hero.

The girls played a very tough sea- son led by Coach Carol Becker and Connie Marry and Barb Nichelson, co-captains.

The starting line-up featured four seniors and nine underclassmen who will be strong next year. The flu bug hit Hudson during district battle and caused a few of the wrestlers to stay home. Three wrestlers were well enough to qual- ify for Regionals. Jeff Steele took fourth at 132 lbs., Pat Wollet, second at 155 lbs., and Chip Ames won his 178 lb. division.

Halfway through the season, the Tigers were battling for first and second in the league. In the pre-district games, the girls faced a tough Quincey team and won, placing them in the district games against Addison. The Tigers lost to the Panthers, 16-14,15-12. During the season, the girls went to the Morenci tournaments where they played excellent volleyball and brought home a runner-up trophy. It was the first time the girls volley- ball team won a piece of hardware. 74 Kneeling, from left: C. Swanson. B. Nichelson, C. Marry, D. Monahan. S. Enerson. Back row from left: Coach P. Badders, L.

Even though they had many disappointments, they were consid- ered a hard-nosed, hustling team that never quit. At the Madison tournament, the Tigers finished third of four teams. Hudson was defeated in their first game by Madison, 62 to 55. In the consolation game, they beat White- ford, 74 to 70. Tony Hackett was named to the all tournament team. As first season head coach, Phil Eberhard did a fine job. With his fine coaching the Tigers pulled off some victories that many considered upsets. The Tigers finished fourth in the league. Mark Johnson received honorable mention to the All Lea- gue and All County teams, while Tony Hackett made first team All League, first team All County, and honorable mention to All State. He was also named the Most Valuable Player for the 1978-79 season.

Letter-Winners Gather Under the sponsorship of Mr. Greg Hanlin, the Hudson Varsity Club was organized during the 1978-79 school year. In order to be a member of this club you must go through an in- itiation process, pass a test on the constitution, and earn at least one varsity letter per year. The club’s purpose is “to help create better sportsmanship and school spirit among its members and to transmit this spirit to the teams, the school and the commun- ity.” The club’s members ordered newly designed varsity jackets in the spring and helped the Booster Club raise money for Jr. Varsity spring sports. The 1978-79 officers were: Pres- ident, Chris Caywood; Vice-Pres- ident, Mark Johnson; Secretary, Sally Enerson; and Treasurer, Sara Blanks. The Drix salesman explains how it’s done to club members and spring sports athletes. 96 President Chris Caywood gives a speech. Delegates Go To State During the summer of 1978, ten students from Hudson High School attended Girls and Boys State, a political youth convention sponsored by the American Legion. The girls traveled to Olivet College, while the boys visited the M.S.U. campus. Their purpose was to learn about the function of our state government. In a typical day, a stater attended many meetings where he was intro- duced to very important officials, such as the Secretary of State, Rich- ard H. Austin. After attending these meetings and understanding the op- eration of our government, the del- egates were divided up into two mock political parties. Each party elected delegates to serve the various Michigan State offices. Delegates were also assign- ed to various cities in which they also elected city and county officials. Clockwise from top: R. Braun, C. Marry, R. Milligan, C. Swanson, J. Wilson, S. Enerson, C. Caywood, A. Webster, T. Hackett, J. Eagle.

From these 19, Stacey Gerken and Jannie Clark were selected as co-editors while Brian Dostert was photography editor. Under the direction of Mrs. Diven, the yearbook staff learned to effect- ively use the mosaic layout style causing the book to take on a more organized dimension. Student Council’s gift of a 35 mm camera enabled several members to develop or improve their photo- graphic skills. We hope you like the results! Stacey Gerken and Jannie Clark, co-editors, wish they could get the staff to start working. Yearbook class students sometimes found it difficult to listen while being instructed on staff procedures. Mrs. Diven, yearbook advisor, proves that Brenda Bobon and Tammy Fitch work steadily on various layout pages, some moments arc more hectic than others. 98 Captures Memories Robin Marry draws ad layouts.

Follies Spread Spirit The 1978-79 Hudson Tiger Follies contributed a lot of Tiger spirit to the assemblies and games. Mr. Wil- liam Himes, advisor, changed the scenery with a change of style-he changed the Follies shirts to add a different atmosphere to the school’s spirit. The shirts sported a growling tiger in the school colors. During the pep assemblies, the Follies skits displayed their pride and spirit for the fighting Tigers.

Christmas season was busy with performances throughout the community and a public concert on December 18. Highlights of the holiday concert were Brenda Barry’s rendition of “Silent Night” and Rick Milligan’s solo “O Come All Ye Faithful”. On April 10, 1979, the Choir traveled to Tecumseh for the fifth annual All-County Choir Festival. In May, the Choir presented their annual Spring Ice Cream Social Concert in the large courtyard.
