Opening Daytime Programming Our days were often very tightly pro- grammed with classes, homework, jobs, club meetings, and play or athletic prat- ices. Somehow we managed to find, or make, the time to break the routine. We talked with friends in the park, or picked up a game of football, or just stared off into space. Some students even managed to make the routine classes exciting. In several research and independent study classes, students probed areas of personal inter- est. With the help of friends and teachers, we learned a great deal about ourselves and the world around us. These day-to- day experiences will form the core of our high school memories.

Classes, activities, basketball, and everyday high school life served to bring students together. The junior and senior classes united for the second combined Junior-Senior Prom, the entire school broke the unfor- tunate tradition of bitter class competition during spirit week to instead unite behind their team, and all shared the joy of win- ning the sectional and the sorrow of los- ing the regional. We laughed ' together and cried together. And we all came together to form a John Adams student body with class.

Masterpiece Theater The Adams Drama Club produces three shows during the year. They meet with much success. 8 JA GUIDE MakirY It Despite numerous obstacles, students manage to get to school. Trains stop in their path, cars and buses get stuck. We may be late, but we make it. The Price Is Right Students flock to the new University Mall to see what unknown attractions it has. Dance Fever Disco talents are displayed as Adams students take the floor during school dances. Everyday Students use their daily lunch period to eat, talk to friends, and take a breather from academic activi- ties. Network News Each day at 9:05 Mr. Przybysz reads announce- ments that give information about the varied events that go on at JAHS. Family Feud Students with brothers and or sisters in school try to avoid them in order to avoid embarrassing fights. JA Guide 9 SPECIAL PROGRAMM- ING We know ..that we ' ll all remember the outstanding happenings, the highlights ot our year; our 1 volleyball and basket- ball teams, our senior prom and the good times we had at the 4-H fair. But in the long run other occurences, those events that are overshadowed now will be the most fondly remembered. We ' ll remember the time a friend deco- rated a locker for our birthday, the food fights we had in the cafeteria and the friends we made by joining a club. We ' ll remember the excitement of win- ning our first wrestling match, the joy of getting an A on an important test, and the disappointment of breaking up with a special friend. The truly special programming of 1979 was these little times , times that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. KtMft Wm.

And, oh yes, we jstn ' t forget sleep. Homework does come in there mewhere along the line, says junior ula Hooker, but a few parties never hurt anyone. There is a serious side to the week- end, though. I work on Saturdays, which is a pain, says senior Lisa Klin- gler, but the extra money is well worth it. Not everyone, however, has the same old dull weekend jobs. Senior George Scheel, for example, spends his Satur- day and Sunday mornings refereeing IYHL hockey, while junior George Pat- ton is a member of the Bendix Woods Ski Patrol. But the overwhelming 1 favorite weekend pastime of John Adams stu- dents is — need we say it? — zzzzzzzzzz. Student Life 13 Spirit Week — The Difference Like every other year at Adams, Spirit Week was the week before Basketball Sectionals when signs were worked on by Student Government and other interested class members. As usual, it was culminated in a pep assembly Friday morning amidst cheering and excitement. The difference, though, is described by Kevin Wasowski: I would just like to let every person know that you were ol vital importance to the success of the basketball season. Never could anyone imagine the electric- ity and unity you displayed throughout the year. We cheered together, celebrated together, and when the time came cried together. The team has left more than a reputation for John Adams, we ' ve left memories, which will always remain untar- nished. The final victory of Sectionals came when our 14 Student Life OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP: Coach Otolski reviews the game strategy, as Coach Hada- way looks on.

Swimming . . . jogging . . . eating ice cream . . . lazing through the day . . . that ' s what makes summer vacation. Everyone finds their own way to spend that prized time of the year. Freshman Phyllis Lighthall loves watching ' All My Children ' , sleeping, and playing tennis. Sophomore Julie Wygant says she will miss the beach at Florida — but not people telling me to get something at the concession stand at Pottawatomi where I worked. Suntans and Tower Hill passes also are relics of those three carefree months. Junior Greg Gerran seems well aware of this, for he misses Tower Hill and all the girls. This was the summer that South Bend lost its parking meters and 18 year-olds their drinking rights in Michigan. The New York Yankees made one of the greatest comebacks in baseball his- tory, and our own John Adams Eagles went all the way to the semi-state. And this was the summer that ended twice for Adams students, who came back to school first in mid-August for arena scheduling and then again three weeks later for the actual beginning of classes. FAR ABOVE: Dan Kovas captures a typical scene at Tower Hill.

Junior Eldred MacDonnell, by an end- less telephoning process over the sum- mer, was the driving force in organizing the club which fielded 25 interested play- ers. As most players had some experience playing in the Michiana Soccer League over the last few summers, the team com- pleted its premier season with a 2-5 record and great prospects for the future. As expected, the hockey team was a bit shallow in numbers this season but more than made up for that in perform- ance. The skaters compiled a 22-8-1 record, their fourth consecutive 20 win season and third consecutive appearance in the league championship finals, finishing second. The highlight of the season came with the defeat of powerhouse Culver Military, eventual Indiana state champions. Adams was the only team all season to beat Culver. Once again Adams placed more play- ers on the league all-star teams than any other team. Jay Brasel, Dave Dziubinski, Dave Jaicomo, and George Scheel each placed on both the coaches ' and players ' all-star lists. Geoff Wharton joined Dziubinski, Jai- como, and Scheel among the league ' s top ten scorers. Dziubinski won the league scoring title, while Jaicomo was the leading scoring defenseman. The team once again loses a strong senior lineup, but says coach Pat McMahon We have some strong kids coming back, so we ' re looking for a promising season next year, too. t LEFT: Fighting off his opponent, junior George Patton keeps the ball under his control.

Powder Bowl II The class of 79 easily rolled over the Freshmen and then fought out a vicious championship game to capture Powder Bowl II, their second consecutive John Adams Powderpuff Championship. The difference was that all the other teams relied on trick plays and we had a solid game plan, said Senior Coach Chris Collier. In the first round the Seniors beat the Freshmen 35-6, while the Juniors eliminated the Sophomores 13-0 to earn their shot at the title. The final game proved that girls really can play football as the two teams had to fight hard for every yard. The seniors took the title 13-6.

He ' s a little loud and rather hard to get used to. But deep down, everyone knows he ' s really a lovable guy. You just have to know how to handle him. That ' s Mother ' s job. Don ' t be fooled, she ' s the one who ' s really in charge. Mother knows just how to handle Father, but she only takes advantage of it in crit- ical situations — when the bills come, rel- atives make surprise visits, and especially in getting her family to heaven. Family life revolves around Father ' s moods. When they find father in a good mood the boys laugh right along with him. But when they find Father ' s mood poor, their activities are a bit more sub- dued. But outsiders are often shocked by this normal routine. Perhaps Father has something to do with the amazing turn- over of maids in the household, a new one nearly every day. Yet it is possible to get used to Father. After all, his family was able to do it. The family minister accepts Father ' s views, although he doesn ' t always like them. And then there ' s the cook who somehow stuck out fifteen years of not knowing what to expect from Father. And most of all, Little Theater audi- ences February 22, 23, and 25 enjoyed learning to live with Father.

Vacation time. A few days to stop in midstream and forget it all. Having fun is the only objective. No need to go to school, no need even to wake up. And especially no need to worry about homework, for teachers enjoy the time off as much as students. Make that, especially teachers. Do you want to get away from the kids? one teacher was asked. With a passion, he responded. It is the end of a countdown that lasts months, and once it arrives the only care in the world is that it must end. r LEFT: You think you ' re the only one who gets a headache thinking back over all those early school mornings?

Student Life 27 Seniors — Bustin ' Loose After three years there is no more next year. Legend has it that this is the year of all fun and no work, but reality has it differently. I don ' t think it was as good as last year. You have to worry about college. That ' s the worst thing, said Chris Col- lier. In spite of the shock of responsibility, though, there is something very special about this year. In addition to sealing life- long friendships, You have a lot more informal relationships with teachers than you did freshman year, said Scott Peter- son. It ' s been my best year, and I was expecting that, said Desi Smith. We are already in our graduation robes and it seems as though it should just be September. This is the fastest year I ' ve ever had, said Scott Peterson. I thought junior year was fast, but this one was really fast. 28 Student Life FAR ABOVE LEFT: Hey, look at us! Judy Cohn seems ecstatic at finding Tracey Brosmer to join her train behind Diane Curtis and Kelly Laughlin at the exclusive senior skating party.

Student Lite 29 30 Student Life As the 3:00 bell rings for most students to go home, a dedi- cated few are just beginning their day. Adams offers a whole other world of after school extracurri- cular activities for a wide variety of interests — sports, drama, publications, nearly anything. Says junior Sherri McLochlin such activities are a part of growing up, learning to get along with people. There are some who spend incredible hours in their activities, rarely coming home before 6:00. It ' s a way to show school pride, says senior Carolyn Panzica. But mostly, it ' s just something fun to do. FACING UPPER LEFT: We ' re still 1, seniors Chris Collier and Linda Scheiber paint on their spirit week signs at the height of Eaglemania.

FAR ABOVE: Knowing that the coming of evening signals that Brigadoon must once again disappear, Tommy (Bob Demaree) vows he will love Fiona (Mary Dernier) From This Day On. FAR ABOVE RIGHT: When the men return from the chase Archie (George Scheel) senses the tragedy they hide from him and expresses his concern for his son. ABOVE: According to Scottish law, the vows that Charlie (Jeff Sanders) and Jean (Emily Johnstone) exchange constitute a legal marriage even though there is no longer a minister at Brigadoon. Strangers rarely visit the quiet towns of the Scottish Highlands, but such visits are especially rare in Brigadoon. Brigadoon, it seems, would be particu- larly difficult to stumble upon, for it is a most unique town. When Brigadoon lies in peril from the unholy influences, the town minister finds this unique way of dealing with the prob- lem. A day in Brigadoon, like everywhere else, lasts from sunup to sundown, but the nights last 100 years. This town is a beneficiary of a miracle. In this way the people cannot fall under these bad influ- ences. But daily life continues unchanged until the two strangers arrive. And when one falls in love with one of the inhabit- ants, Brigadoon opens its arms to him. COME TOUCH THE 9UN FAR ABOVE.

Admliilon $4.00 John Adams ' second Junior-Senior Prom was highlighted by a more tradi- tional band, Eddie Jarrett, who played more slow tunes than past prom bands. A great deal of preparation from both classes went into the event which cost over $3000. The senior afterprom, featuring Stoney Creek, was also held at Century Center. Needless to say, the hit of the evening was the midnight munchies huge subma- rine sandwiches. Erskine this year served as the scene for the Junior afterprom with Smith Company providing the music.

THE HANDS OF TIME If the hands of time were hands that I could hold, I ' d keep them warm and in my hands they ' d not turn cold. Hand in hand we ' d choose the moments that should last; the lovely moments that should have no future and no past. The summer from the top of a swing. The comfort in the sound of a lullaby. The innocence of leaves in spring. But, most of all the moment when love first touched me! All the happy days would never learn to fly, until the hands of time would choose to wave good-bye. Student Life 37 Mission Impossible Completed No one tripped, a few cried, the diplo- mas went out and the Class of 79 was history. The weather waited all week, but tradi- tion did not fail with temperatures rising into the 80 ' s especially for the occasion. Four hundred and eight students made the trek across the stage for their diploma before a capacity crowd of friends and relatives. It took just over an hour between the processional and the mad dash to turn in cap and gowns and head home for the pop. Thus ended four years of the ago- nies and ecstacies that make high school special. Serious as the occasion was the reali- zation that it was all over would have to wait for an evening of party hopping and present opening with thank you notes on the agenda for the next week. 38 Student Life FAR LEFT: A tassle Bosco and the rest graduation. and a diploma are all that Pete of the seniors are left with after FAR ABOVE LEFT: With an air of solemnity, Princi- pal Mr Przybysz delivers his commencement address in cap and gown, a special twist added by the class.

Assistant Principals, Mr. Bibbs and Mr. David, and Principal, Mr. Przybysz form a strong triangle for Adams students to follow. They are always on hand to help solve a problem or straighten out a misunderstanding. Our administration can be counted on to keep things running smoothly at John Adams. A friendly rapport between students, teachers, and princi- pals is prevalent in the halls of Adams.

This particular class provides enthusiastic musicians for the popular pep band, which leads spirited fans at football and basketball games. The pepband members are well known for their unusual taste in clothes. Crazy looking peo- ple wearing weird ties or hats is not an unfamiliar sight at games and pep assemblies. Jazz Band gives jazz enthusiasts a chance to pursue their interest and develop hidden talent.

As freshmen, we are introduced to his- tory in the form of either World Civiliza- tion or Introduction to Social Studies. As juniors, we learn the intricacies of U.S. history — the failures and accomplish- ments which make up the history of past Americans. Finally, as seniors, we study different aspects of government and pos- sibly psychology or criminal justice. All these courses gradually lead us to a bet- ter understanding of our country and our- selves, thus increasing the chance that we, too, may someday make our own marks in the world. ABOVE: I realize this is first hour, but you are too old for ' nap time ' . Maybe Mr. Schutz should try some new jokes to liven up his freshmen in World Civilization!

In taking science classes from the wide variety offered at Adams, one encounters endless opportunities to explore the ori- gins of the universe. It is possible to pur- sue the study of biology, chemistry, or physics. Often, students elect to take one or two years of each — in order to secure a strong background for college. Highly motivated students may take advantage of the excellent staff and facili- ties to conduct research experiments on an independent basis. In researching the effects of smoke and various diets on mice, Junior Phil Randazzo received a $100 grant from the American Heart Association. Senior Jenny Lackman also received a grant from the Heart Associa- tion, in addition to one from the Indiana Academy of Science. She is entering her project in the Northern Indiana Regional Science Fair. Senior Robert Ross ' work was sponsored by the American Lung Association with a $1 50 grant.

Academics a Number Whether we go on to become an exec- utive or a nurse, the ability to reason log i- cally will be a vital asset. The Math Department tries to cater to the needs of all students, regardless of their future plans. At the introductory level, a course in basic skills called high school math and three levels of Algebra I are offered. According to a number of seniors, courses such as Geometry and Calculus are a lot of work, but well worth the effort. The concern the department shows is felt and appreciated by the stu- dents. UPPER RIGHT: Freshmen Patty Henry, Linda Low- man, Kenneth Watkins, and Margo Peterson con- centrate on completing an algebra quiz.

MIDDLE RIGHT: Smiling with relief, Gary Washington com- pletes the final problem on his accounting assign- ment. The JAHS Business Dept. continued to aid students in acquiring skills such as typing, shorthand, and data processing, in addition to teaching courses like busi- ness law. A new dimension this year was a class involving advertising and sales. Mrs. Bailey hopes to see even more courses added to enrich the department, such as more offered on advanced levels. Business courses provide an excellent background for both jobs and college work. Mrs. Bailey observed that students often come into accounting who have just been drifting around and then really get turned on. This is an encouraging sight because accounting is an area open at any level to any one.

RIGHT: Although Kevin Bradford ' s attention has been diverted, Mary Corona ponders over an idea brought up in Spanish. Academics Language is more than a study of words and phrases; it is the study of peo- ple and culture. Language students in Spanish, French, Latin, and German not only learned how to speak a foreign lan- guage — they were also made aware of other people whose values and lifestyles differ from their own. Movies, magazines, and even food aided the learning proc- ess. Whether in first year or fourth year, the exposure to a foreign culture gave stu- dents an in depth view of a different world. Many students have expressed hopes to make use of their knowledge such as P. J. Gault who hopes to go to Spain and use the Spanish language. Some have already traveled.

According to Mrs. Germano, stu- dents are displaying a growing interest in English — particularly in gaining mastery in skills. These skils better enable them to put their words in action . An interest- ing aspect of this change concerns the increase in the enrollment in Senior Eng- lish classes, which emphasized basic skills. Sophomore classes were able to use new reading materials and compos- ition books. This aided in dividing classes into units on reading, lit, composition, and speech. As student awareness increases, the number of college bound students grows. Thus, the mastery of grammatical skills and a knowledge of literature have earned well deserved appreciation from students.

Students seem to be seeking creative outlets for the purpose of expressing themselves. Students on all levels took the opportu- nity to test and expand their abilities in areas such as drawing, painting, and pot- tery. Graphic Printing, a new course, offered those interested in creative print- making a chance to use their talent. The more talented artists were able to exhibit their completed projects at St. Marys, and at Century Center. Artists were also eligible to enter competition in the Scholastics at Robertsons. Two keys and a number of honorable men- tions were won. During the spring musi- cal, the department also held an exhibit in their new gallery for the second consecu- tive year.

Academics 77 I Tools of the Trade i The skills gained through taking indus- trial arts classes will stay with participat- ing students throughout their lives. In addition to learning to work with compli- cated equipment, students acquire important safety skills. Experience com- bined with an interest in electronics, drafting, or woodworking could lead to a variety of careers, such as: engineering, architectural work, construction, or cabi- net making. The classes usually begin at a basic level, then progress to quite advanced levels. For instance, the first se mester of electronics requires fixing broken house- hold appliances, whereas the more advanced classes develop projects and provide the opportunity to enter a contest 78 Academics ' spring.

Guide 85 All In The Family To some being on the yearbook appears to be all fun and games. Actually much work and frustration goes into every single ALBUM page. Much of the staff was composed of inexperienced section editors. These edi- tors were constantly asking the advice of the editors in chief. The inexperienced soon became the experienced, using new and different ideas for their assigned sections. The photographers were the unsung heroes of the staff. Without the constant effort from the photographers, there could have never been an ALBUM. Although the staffers suffered their share of tears and smiles, they still remained strong, like a family. In the long run, the finished product brought pride to all who were a part of this Family .

Footsteps FOOTPRINTS is the literary magazine produced annually by John Adams stu- dents. The magazine contains drawings, poems, and short stories. Posters on display urged students to submit any original work of literature. Then the editors, under the direction of Mrs. Ann Germano sort and compile arti- cles. Fortunately the students ' overcame past apathy and made this the most suc- cessful FOOTPRINTS in many years. In fact, several FOOTPRINTS editors sold all their copies of the magazine the first day it went on sale. RIGHT: ROW 1 : Carol Walker, Juliette Van Dongen, Anne Haines, Luann Kenna, Lisa Parker.

The main activity of the group was to sell spirit buttons and pro- grams at home football and basketball games. Meeting every Monday in Room 207 at 3:05 p.m., the group discussed ideas on improving school spirit. Known as Guardian Eagles , the members deco- rated athletes lockers to show their sup- port. The club was sponsored by Mrs. Jackie VanderWeide and the officers for this year were: President: Judy Bairn; Vice-President: Julie Wygant; Secretary: Denise Banke; Treasurer: Kathy Rich- ards. Since these girls are underclass- men, next year ' s Booster Club is bound to accomplish their job of boosting school pride.

Sportsmen The Monogram Club ' s major activity was the annual Halloween Dance. Yet due to apathy of the student body, the dance was only a moderate success. The profit from the dance goes towards pay- ment of Most Valuable Player awards, chevrons and letter sweaters. Being a letter sweater winner was the only requirement for Monogram Club membership.

Clubs 89 All The World ' s A Stage The house lights dim, the audience rustles to a comfortable silence, and the stage lights hum into action. That is the beginning of an experience that is sepa- rate from any other. It is a fantasy where the familiar faces you see down the hall- ways become characteristics of tragedy or comedy. It is a fantasy where the actor looks into the faces of the audience, or hears a peal of laughter and says, We ' ve got ' em now! This is the theatre at John Adams High School, a strenuous mixture of talent, where involvement is the main ingredient, and where dedication is the only real qualification to be connected with some aspect of theatre, whether it be sewing costumes, constructing sets, acting, working lights, or student directing. This is what the Drama Club depends upon — the dedication of every hem straightner and hammer-swinger. Even if the above activities do not light a fire under you, perhaps the business side will. Ticket managing, publicities, and programs head the list of necessities. For these necessities to function prop- erly, the Drama Club must work like a well-tuned clock. Without the support and dedication, some area would lack in quality. And as all of the local Drama departments know, Adams has the finest on-stage and back-stage talent in the area. As someone once said, Adams has got CLASS. And when that curtain goes up, the audience is expecting the very finest entertainment, and that is what they get!

Each Sunday after an ND home game, aspiring beer can collectors and treasure hunters cleaned up the trash left by tailgate parties. But not everyone found only trash; Mr. Oilman, accompa- nying his daughter Geanie, found fifty dollars, while several others found watches, and even a camera. The rest of the year, however, was not as fruitful. The December grapefruit and orange sale would have been a success, but the company did not ship the full order of fruit and many annual customers were disappointed. The trip to Chicago for a symphony concert also met with disaster. South Bend ' s winter weather made the trip too hazardous, and Mr. Przybysz was obliged to cancel the trip. An officer described it as a disappointing year, but added that this year ' s misfortunes make next year worth looking forward to. ABOVE: Oranges are good for more than being eaten.

Although the club consisted of ten members and lacked organization, they still participated in many activities. Black Awareness sponsored a dance and attended the stage production of the musical The Wiz . They also decorated the display case outside the library with the proud cap- tions of We ' ve come a LONG way . During Black History Week, the mem- bers presented short biographies on prominent Blacks and their contributions to society. Though the club was small in size, they were successful in boosting Black pride. LEFT: ROW 1 : Veronica Lee, Desi Smith, Richard Scott. ROW 2: Commie Walls, Phyllis Lighthall, Pam Rouse.

The scrapbook is judged on neatness, how well it is put together, organization, etc. It is a picture story of our local OEA chapter at John Adams. The Office Education Association (OEA) or Cooperative Office Education (COE) trains students in office skills and assigns them to jobs in the South Bend area. Here ' s what some students say about their jobs: Susan Verynckt — St. Joseph Hospital Laboratory: (ABOVE LEFT): I have gained a large knowledge of the medical field just by talking to doctors and technicians. This job is not exactly what I expected. I expected to be typing letters and doing strictly office things. It is very different. I have been here for nine months and have never typed a letter. I receive people who come to the lab for blood work, answer phones, file insur- ance, file copies of blood work. There ' s never a dull moment. Ty Reed — Lowe ' s, Inc.: On my job I have done many unusual things and one of them was to wear the Charlie Chuckles costume. (Lowe ' s makes kitty litter.) Clubs 95 Squads Earn Prime Time The two year old Pom Pon, Pike and Rifle squads of John Adams proved to be the best in the city.

How- ever, they weren ' t finished yet. The squads also performed in the basketball Holiday Tournament and sectional games attheACC. The Pom Pon squad is under the spon- sorship of Mrs. VanderWeide and the Pike and Rifle squads under the advisory of Mrs. Dawson.

Clubs 97 Jobs Provided Through DECA Distributive Education Clubs Of Amer- ica, DECA, is under the sponsorship of Mr. William Blauvelt. DECA is a regular class held second hour and is open to any junior or senior. It provides on the job training in fields of Sales and Counter personnel and Cashiers. In February, the class participated in the Preliminaries at Scottsdale Mall. The students that pass the preliminaries par- ticipate in the State Competition, or one may go directly to State if they compose a manual on their area of job training. A total of three credits are received for the class. One credit for the class itself and two for the job acquired by means of the class. But in order to receive the two credits, the student must pass an evalua- tion written by their job supervisor. ABOVE: OFFICERS: ROW 1 : J.

Approximately nine students assist in the Guidance, Vice Principal, and Princi- pal ' s offices every hour. In the Guidance Office, the aides answer calls, receive phone messages, and relay information to and for the Guid- ance counselors. It is the duty of the Attendance aides to collect and record the daily attendance. The Switchboard aides answer daily phone calls ranging from students ' younger brothers and sis- ters to very important calls for Mr. Przy- bysz. Besides answering phones, running errands, and taking attendance, student aides also sort the incoming mail for the teachers. The advantage a student aide receives are: report card credit, exemp- tion from finals, and experience working with people. RIGHT: ROW 1: K. Nicholas. ROW 2: J. Slabaugh, T. Karpinski, C. Ross, P.

Nine seniors and 43 juniors were added to the standing mem- bership ot 41 at the NHS induction held in November. Several new options were opened for NHS members. They could purchase club pins or charms for the first time. The candy sale was held once again but with a different twist. Those who did not wish to sell candy were given the option of paying dues. Unfortunately, the dues were exceedingly difficult to collect; therefore, a few members had to sell enough candy to support the entire soci- ety. The money raised through the candy sale and dues was used to subsidize the induction ceremony. Money was also contributed to Adams ' literary magazine, FOOTPRINTS, to help the staff meet the high costs of printing. The National Honor Society was under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ann Germano. Officers were Robert Ross, President; Lisa Swartz, Vice President; Ron Elum, Treasurer; and Lisa Engel, Secretary. ABOVE: Juniors; ROW 1: J. Johnson, K. Winchester, L. Parker, P. Bender, V.

Clubs 101 Issues and Answers The Student Government ' s year-long schedule of projects began as they wel- comed the entering freshmen with the annual Club Fair as well as something new: talks on the Eagle Ethics in frosh Social Studies classes. These talks were designed to give new students pride in our school. Mr. Hadaway seemed optimistic about the success of the talks but was unhappy with the results of another project, the canned food drive. Fewer than 200 cans were collected due to the apathy of the student body. Peter Bosco, a senior and four year member, suggested that better advertising might produce better results in next year ' s drive. One of the group ' s favorite fall pro- jects, the second annual Gong Show, was a tremendous success and attracted acts from every part of the school. From dance routines to the winning duelling drummers, the acts performed to a packed house. Student Government members wrote and acted in hilarious commercial skits between acts. Two organizations, the North Central Evaluation Committee and the Japanese Teacher Study team visited our school this year. The Student Government pro- vided student guides who conducted the committees from class to class and, in the case of the Japanese team, helped translate comments and questions. When they left Adams, many of the Japanese exchanged addresses with their student guides, and they are still corresponding. The St. Valentine ' s Day dance was planned with a different twist this year. Ordinarily a fifties sock hop, disco fever infected the dance committee and the sock hop became a disco. But although the planning committee caught disco fever, the student body was not affected and the dance was cancelled due to lack of interest. It was a tiring year for members of the Student Government, escorting evalua- tors, planning skits, collecting canned food, and making speeches. Some are just glad it ' s over. But others, especially next year ' s officers, are already setting dates and making plans to fill next year ' s busy schedule.

The Reps were selected from each homeroom at the beginning of the school year, and were kept busy throughout the year. They collected the $12.00 com- bined subscription fee for the Tower and Album. Seniors could have their names printed on the cover of their yearbooks for an additional $1.50. The Reps also wrote out subscription cards and receipts for every subscription sold.

Clubs 105 Bookbeat When someone claims they are a library aide, they are bombarded with the question: What exactly does a library aide do? From 7:30 a.m. until 3:00 p.m., these students assist in operating the circula- tion desk and shelving books. Those who volunteer to work during first hour also have the dubious pleasure of delivering notices to many unhappy students throughout the school. In Mrs. Starkweather ' s opinion, it would be very difficult for the library to function without the student aides.

For most fans basketball games began when the team ran out on the floor. But for Ushers Club members, preparation for home games began at 4:00, setting up the Coke machines and popping over 200 boxes of popcorn to be sold to the crowd. Club president Sabrina Chase said that this is not simple; it ' s more diffi- cult than it seems to fiddle with that old, no-good popcorn maker. The ushers who work with the crowd in the gym can always watch the game but do those who work in the concession stand miss seeing it? No, said four year member Bob Severns, There are alot of benefits: free popcorn, all the pop you can drink, and we still get to watch the last quarter free. Wearing sweaters paid for by mem- bers, the club not only ushered for bas- ketball games, but also assisted the music department at concerts throughout the year and at district music contests at the end of January. The members don ' t think of it as work, though. No one is quite sure why they like being in the club, but all agree on one point: It ' s fun! Clubs 107 Meet the Press Every other Friday, the students look torward to receiving their issue of THE TOWER. THE TOWER is the school newspaper that averages 6 pages per issue and is a free bonus with the pur- chase of a yearbook subscription. Since most of the staff is composed of underclassmen, only 6 staffers are lost to graduation. Therefore, the staff will remain relatively intact. Besides working on the school news- paper, some staffers are involved in other paper-related activities. Mary Gregg, a junior on the staff, actively participated in the Next Generation Page, featured each Sunday in THE SOUTH BEND TRIBUNE. Much work is involved in producing a school newspaper. Without the continu- ous effort of the entire staff and the co- operation of the student body, THE JOHN ADAMS TOWER would cease to exist. ABOVE: ROW 1: J. Mengal, L. Parker, K. Winchester, L.

Yes, the John Adams Biology Club, where a relaxed atmosphere provides fun and a chance to learn all about the fascinating subject of Science. Some of the fun and experience is shared on the annual field trip — last year to the Museum of Science and Industry. Lectures on a multitude of topics ranging from photosynthesis to body functions, enriches the group ' s understanding of life and growth. Enriching the group ' s understanding about its very being are the officer s: David Herring (President), Bob Ross (Vice), and Laura Ross (Secretary). Bob comments on his last year in the Biology Club saying, The number of members has increased and yet I would hope to see more individual participation from the members on their own. If the body, or the germs, or the plants are your bag, look into the Biology Club and catch a good case of something like knowledge, friends, and great times.

Maintaining the spirit of the Taxidermy Club is San- ders Elliot, the only charter member. Not only is he the backbone of the club, but he carries on an excellent professional career, quoted Mr. Wesley, the club ' s sponsor. The club ' s only source of funds is the money made from the finished products — such as the monthly quota of ten birds, twenty rodents, and one large animal head. The ten members enthusi- astically anticipate the first Monday of each month as an opportunity to begin a new specimen. Sanders, acting as the sole officer, has the privilege of heading the only Taxidermy Club in Indiana. Adams should indeed be proud of this unique organization.

The collective Magic Show was not the only opportunity for our budding magicians to gain experi- ence, however. The individual club mem- bers gave performances to grade- schools, children ' s library groups, and at children ' s parties. Although the club is in its third year, President Carl Weiss is hop- ing for an even greater increase in mem- bership for future years.

The chosen line-up led to many close matches, but the Netters did not have the depth which was necessary to have a winning season.

Cross Country, once a minor sport at Adams, gained much rec- ognition and respect after turning in an overall season record of 9-6. The season was highlighted by a 3rd place finish in sectionals and a 9th place finish in regionals. This 1 7 member team, the largest team in years, was lead by senior co-captain Randy Forbes who made the All-Conference 2nd Team. Co-captain Mike Laflin attributes the turnaround to the new coach Doug Sny- der. Coach Snyder commented, The success of the team should help the spring track program. The turnout and accomplishments of this fine Cross Country team, along with Coach Snyder, are going to be remem- bered in the future as the factors for the turnaround in the sport. $ t CROSS COUNTRY TEAM: Front Row: Russ Pyles, Doug Smith, Jim Kennedy, Randy Forbes, Mike Laflin, John Poorbaugh, Mark Miller, Mike Thomas, Jeff Sypniewski.

From the start of the season there was talk of a state championship. This was certainly a realistic possibility as the team started the season ranked fourth and eventually moved up to second. The Sea- gles ambitions, however, were crushed as they finished a disappointing eighth in the state finals. Yet, this unforeseen end- ing detracts little from a truly outstanding season. The Seagles were led by All-American Ron Zhiss, who chalked up his third con- secutive state championship in the breaststroke as well as assuring himself of a second All-American selection. Zhiss also swam on the 5th place medley relay team with Bernie Doering, Tom Manley, and Tim Herendeen. Adam ' s only other finalist was Bernie Doering who placed 8th in the breaststroke.

During the sixteen weeks of victo- ries, they not only collected various championship titles but accomplished pride in forming their close-knit team and success in bringing unity in the student body. Among the championship victories were the Hall of Fame Basketball Classic of Indiana, the Holiday Tourney, the Northern Indiana Conference, and the Sectional Tournament. The victories were due to the eight senior returning letter- man and thier coaches Dave Hadaway, Mike Otolski, and Greg Humnicky. Each player contributed his exceptional talent, however, no one player lead the team. Mark Herron commented on this by say- ing All the seniors are the leaders. The strategy this year was not to focus on scoring high but playing a more pre- cise offense with their improved defense. Between the players, they had a set of similar rules in mind, as Kevin Bradford would say Play hard. We know what we got to do. Shoot good — good shots. Move hands on defense. Rebound. As for the individual seasonal games, the Eagles have many to remember. The wins over Clay and Gary Roosevelt were not only revengeful gains but dazzlers for the crowd because of their impressive 16 and 24 point margins. Continuing their winning streak, they encountered Elk. Central and added them to their list of vic- tories with Leroy ' s jump shot in the last seconds of the game.

Although the spikers had much confi- dence from the start, Coach Sue Ganser was skeptical about her teams chances. As the season progressed, however, this skepticism started to fade. The team ' s confidence and talent in addition their ability to come from behind was mainly responsible for their great season. The sectional provided the V-Eagles with their most difficult challenge as they won cliff-hangers over Clay and Riley before winning the championship over St. Joe. With the most difficult obstacle out of the way, the spikers won the remainder of their matches in two games. Despite outstanding play by the State ' s Mental Attitude award winner, Gina Fragomeni, Coach Sue Ganser insists that the team ' s 26-1 record, was all the result of an out- standing team effort. 134 Sports LEFT: Senior Janet Scheu cross spikes to raise the score in one of their winning games.

The team improved greatly over the season ending up 5th in Sectionals defeating Angola and Concord (who had beaten them easily during the year). Captain of this hard working young team was senior Randy Kelly. The other senior on the team, Ricky Harris, was the m ost valuable gymnast. Filling up the gap that those two will be leaving next year will be returning lettermen John Rock- stroh and John Hennion, both juniors this year. When asked what he expected for next year ' s squad, Coach Poe replied, There is great potential for next year since this is the youngest team we have had in a long time.

As of May 3, the team was 7-1 and tied for the NIC title. While this was only the third year of Girls Track at Adams, they have come a long way — with times being lowered con- stantly throughout the season and events always improving. Third year coach Sue Ganser has car- ried over her famous volleyball coaching skills of hard work and lots of discipline into her track program. Co-captains elected to promote leader- ship among the girls were Juniors Denise Golba and Jennie Horvath. Both are proven track stars at Adams. Coach Ganser feels that the team is strong and has great depth, with many of the points coming from 2nd and 3rd place finishes. If the team keeps up their determina- tion to win as they have so far, they are sure to come out winners.

The Eagles beat the St. Joe Indians in the tirst round by a score of 4-3 and shut out the Washington Panthers 4- in the final game. The Eagles, earlier ranked No. 7 in the state, managed to win the Northern Indiana Conference with a record of 15-3 and finished the season with a 19-7 record. The five returning seniors, Tom Cates, Bill Dragovich, Joe Niemann, Jim Parker, and Kevin Wasow- ski gave this year ' s team some advan- tages with their improved fielding, hitting and pitching.

MM TAKE TIM The girl ' s tennis team enjoyed one of their finest seasons ever as it was high- lighted by the doubles team of Sandy Gyorgyi and Greta Roemer capturing the state title. This victory, coupled with excellent play by the team in both the sectional and regional, enabled the team to tie for second place in the state tourna- ment. The season, for the most part, saw the girls easily defeat their opponents but there were some pitfalls on their road to success. There were several heartbreak- ing defeats as each of the team ' s three losses were by scores of 3-4 and only one point separated the girls from both the sectional and conference titles. Despite these disappointments, the girls rallied to tie for first in the regional and place second in state. With the return of the state champion- ship doubles team and the loss of only one senior, Coach Hamilton is confident that Adams will be an even stronger con- tender for the state team title next year.

JA Guide 157 FROGH From the first day of the 1978-79 school year, it was apparent that a new group of very spirited people had joined the Adams clan. The class of 1982, led by Brian Lennon, president, Teri Hover, secretary, Richard Varda, vice president, and Celeste Pluta, trea- surer, had many successes during the year. They were the loudest group of frosh during pep assemblies in many years, and they were active in many extra-curricular activities. Their deco- rations for spirit week, which were based on the theme of Peanuts, were some of the best this year. More excit- ing things can be expected from this special class during their future years at JAHS.

It ' s the year that when looking at freshmen, you wonder Was I ever that short? . It ' s when we realize that four years wasn ' t as long as we thought. It ' s the year when we begin to look towards the future and the year we enjoyed today. We begin to remember all the good times, like the blizzards that cancelled finals, and the bad, finals that weren ' t cancelled. Senior year is a year of decisions, anywhere from deciding what you ' re going to wear to the prom to what you ' re going to do after graduation. Some of us will go to college, some to work, some to the service, and some of us will even get married. Though, our lives will send us to varied paths, we will always remember the times we ' ve spent at Adams. We will remember that we were part of the Class of 79 , under the leader- ship of President Mike Laflin, Vice- president Janet Scheu, Secretary Lisa Swartz, and Treasurer Chris Collier. As members of the class, we were able to enjoy a prom that will be remembered for a long time by those who were able to attend. The prom was held on May 19, 1979 at the Great Hall in Century Center with music provided by the more classicial 1 1 piece band EDDIE GARETT. The after prom, also held at the Century Center, had the listening pleasure of the Indianapolis group STONEY CREEK. The prom was pro- vided for from the class treasury, one of the richest Adams has seen in recent years. The senior fund raiser, the magazine sale, was somewhat damped by the fact that most of the elementary schools were selling them at the same time. Despite the set back the class had a budget of $6061 .51 to work with. This was spent on the prom, and on gifts to different school organi- zations. It was truly a year and a class to remember. Although we ' ll continue our individ- ual searches, we ' ll always remember the times we ' ve shared in our years together at Adams. The times that aided us in our understanding and self awareness. The times that were filled with questions, as well as answers. ABOVE: A chilled group of class officers Pres. Mike Laflin, Treasurer Chris Collier, Vice Pres.

Senior Judy Spi- gle appears slightly overloaded f ' Speedy Reedy Peggy Ann Sechowski Dawn Seleg-Kurdys Being a class sponsor is a hard job, and being a senior class sponsor is that much harder. For the last four years Mr. Reed and Mrs. Weir have contributed as much if not more than each and everyone of us. You ' ve been known to us as a teacher, coach, Speedy Reedy, and most important — a friend. We ' ve learned together, not only through books, but through shared experiences; the triumphs and the tragedies, the laughter and the tears. We ' ve learned through your guidance. And we hope, that you, who have given so much, have gained something in return. We ' ll remember all the good times, the proms, senior skip day, senior honors assembly, graduation, and how they were all made that much more special knowing you were behind us. You ' ve helped us in our search for ourselves and our plans for the future. No matter how far we may go in our lives, we ' ll remember that we were members of the Class of 79 ' and that the most important mem- ber was a man who has seen many senior classes come and go. Words cannot express the appre- ciation that has been felt and, so, in the simplest words possible — we THANK YOU, MR REED AND THANK YOU MRS. WEIR for your support.

The diploma, though, is only a piece of paper — The memories we take with us will last a lifetime. And behind the memories, are experiences; Experiences we live and learn from — Together . . . We watch each other go from Thinking we know everything — To realizing that we ' ve barely scratched the surface . . We share victories and defeats — Both personal and school oriented. The good times and laughter we share Wll hold forever a warm glowing flame within. Of course, some experiences will undoubtedly cause Knowing smiles of embarrassment to come to our lips. When we recall past adventures . . . When we walk out of Adams ' doors for the final time, Our lives will have been touched By what we saw here — And, by the people we got to know along the way. Hopefully, we will have left our mark. Gina Germano 224 Editors-in-Chief Ronald Elum Lisa Engel Gina Germano n FQTI YearE The future rapidly becomes the past and delay is the first deci- sion.
