Her deep concern for people, endless energy, and enthusiasm for new ideas and projects has made her well-liked by both students and teachers. Besides teaching a variety of English courses, ranging from Com- munications to Dramatics , Miss Bricker spends many hours of after- school time supervising extra-curri- cular activities, including cheer- leading, Pep Club, and Class plays. We, the staff of the 1973 POW- DERHORN, dedicate this yearbook to Miss Beth Bricker. Dedication I wvr 3 Powderhorn Staff Records Moments of '73 A school year is made up of many moments. Although every person's memories of the year are different, we have attempted to capture the highlights. From the beginning of Septem- ber until after graduation, the staff records memories in the Pow- derhorn - memories that made up the Moments of '73.

Hey, what time does the dance start VARQITY AND INTRAMURAL SPORTS Sports, whether varsity or intramurals, are an important part of Alder life. Varsity sports provide an opportunity to compete against other schools and help promote school spirit. For those who do not have the time or the ability to make the varsity teams, there are intramural sports. Intramurals also offer participation in some sports that varsity teams do not compete in. Though everyone always wants to win, sports teach how to lose and the value of making that extra effort to win the next time. Maurice is in solid meditation as he contemplates his next move. Spectators ponder the outcome of the match. Intramural basketball packed the lunch hours with involvement and competition. MOMENTS OF FUN The piiiata party proved to be enjoyable to all.

Homecoming night is perfect with Indians. a big victory over Football As shown by the Homecoming scoreboard . there were many happy moments for the Pioneer football team. Coach Don Morrison led them to a second place finish in the DVL and a 7-2-0 record overall. The Pioneers had a very well balanced team as the of- fense averaged 21.2 points a game while the defense held the opponents to 8.7. To improve on this years' record and statistics will be a challenge for the 1973 team. Moments of the 1972 season will long be remembered by all who watched the fighting Pioneers and especially for those who were on the team. the Mechanicsburg 92 Mike Boyhan and Gary Vowell were voted most valu able defensive and offensive players by their team members Alder Takes Sectional Star players Jordan and Murray pose with jubilant coach Cliff Rose after the sectional victory. Quickness and teamwork formed the basis for this year's basketball team. Veteran Coach Cliff Rose returned to Al- der, leading the team to a successful 13-7 season. Winning the first eight outings, taking runner-up posi- tion to the league, and capturing the sectional trophy were the highlights of this year's team. Fans will never forget that near comeback in the District tournament. Through quick guards, active forwards, and Senior leadership, the Pioneers sparkled all season long.

Wrestling a Growing Sport Wrestling is here to stay at Alder. It has been proven by the size of the crowds at the matches and the enthusiasm of the boys. After defeating Indian Lake in their first match, the J. A. squad placed second in the Marysville Tournament. The next two opponents brought defeat to the live- ly team but did not lower its spirit. With the turn of the new year the wrestling changed also. The grapplers finished the rest of the regular matches with wins. They placed fourth in the 14 team Lick- ing Heights Tournament, second in their own 8 team tournament and third in the 18 team sectional. Six Pioneers advanced to the District but were stopped there.

I ’«L Mike North lets a high pitch go by for a full count. Larry Kuhns was the top Pioneer hitter for 1973 with a .375 average. Scott Snider gets ready to round third and head for home for another run. 103 Buddy Schrock gets another hit on the way to a .358 average. Baseball hopes are starting to look up at Alder. After a slow start, the team came back and started to move. Coach Ray Willoughby believed the team could have compiled a very good record if the season had been a bit longer. The team had good pitching and excellent hitting and a few breaks in some of the close games could have made their 7-9 record a lot better. With only two Seniors on the squad and with the way they have been improving, next year could prove to be an outstanding year. Pre-game warm up is always necessary. 72-73 Statistics Football Fairbanks Opp. 6 Alder 13 Logan Elm 0 22 Mechanicsburg 0 32 Greenview 6 25 Dublin 14 0 Southeastern 7 41 Cedarville 27 7 Triad 6 26 Madison Plains 12 25 Basketball Opp. Alder West Jefferson 51 63 Dublin 63 67 New Albany 75 85 West Liberty Salem 52 64 Madison Plains 34 78 Mechanicsburg 62 71 Fairbanks 50 54 Wehrle 62 71 Marion Pleasant 82 42 Big Walnut 61 41 Greenview 68 81 Marysville 45 41 London 79 59 Southeastern 65 67 Cedarville 74 53 Triad 61 97 Fairbanks 65 58 Madison Plains 63 76 Licking Heights 67 88 Lancaster Fisher 75 70 Wrestling Dual Matches Opp. Alder Indian Lake 20 45 Mansfield St. Peter 29 28 Olentangy 38 15 White Hall 27 36 Bishop Ready 27 37 Buckeye Valley 17 40 Wehrle 21 42 Triangular Match Mechanicsburg 24 95 Dublin Tournaments 59 Alder Marysville 2'nd Licking Heights 4'th Johnathan Alder 2'nd Sectional 3'rd West Jefferson Baseball Opp. 11 Alder 10 Fairbanks 5 4 New Albany 0 14 Dublin 7 4 Madison Plains 2 1 Triad 7 3 Greenview 4 5 Mechanicsburg 2 7 Southeastern 5 3 Fairbanks 5 6 Dublin 4 0 Cedarville 3 4 Marysville 3 4 West Jefferson 9 7 London 0 14 105 Golf Team Takes Brad Stoker is all concentration as he putts this one toward the cup. five individual records. Let's see head down, eyes on the ball . . ' � The golf team had the best record of the year at Alder. Their 19-2-1 record was very impressive and they were the only ones to capture the league title. On their way to this record all five individual records were broken and four of the five team records were broken. This year will be a big challenge for next years team especially since three of the five varsity golfers were Seniors. But with the promising under- classmen coming up they should be back in there next year. Dana Dunmire carefully lines up a putt. Cheerleaders Display Enthusiasm, School Spirit Signs in lockers, victory cakes, red and black signs lining the halls, pep rallies, generating school spirit - all are the job of an Alder cheerleader. Humerous skits by the cheerleaders put extra life into pep rallies. he bonfire was highlighted with the burning o the Burg outhouse. This is where the girls get their start - tryouts in front of the student body. 108 Rain - Shortened Girls Track Season — a Success 109 Alder Royalty Sophomore Attendant and Escort KIM FARMWALD AND JOHN ADAMS Junior Attendant and Escort DENISE CONVERSE AND BOB STEWART Press Rolls on PIONEER PRESS STAFF - Brenda Brofford.

Farewell to you and the youth I have spent with you. It was but yesterday we met in a dream. You have sung to me in my aloneness. and 1 of your longings have built a tower in the sky. But now our sleep has fled and our dream is over, and it is no longer dawn. The noontide is upon us and our half walking has turned to fuller day, and we must part. If in the twilight of memory we should meet once more, we shall sing again together and you shall sing to me a deeper song. And if our hands should meet in another dream we shall build another tower in the sky . . . THE PROPHET Kahil Gibran 210 —
