Jonathan Alder High School - Power Horn Yearbook (Plain City, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 216 of the 1983 volume:

mu ■ ii Vw P. 170 €1' y Dedication The ability to help the students and being able to keep a smile through almost any situa- tion are two of this teacher’s best qualities. Relating with the students comes naturally for her, having three children of her own. She is not only noted for her devotion as a business teacher and the National Honor Society advisor here at Alder but, is also recognized by the community in her work with the “Friends of the Library” and the “Plain Ci- ty Bookclub.” To a sensational lady who has given of her time and of her self to better our school, we, the 1983 Powder Horn staff proudly dedicate this yearbook to you, Mrs. Johanna Keiser Dedication ALDER, the Final Frontier.

Finland, and attended Karjaansuom Lukio High School. The following copy was written by Silja giving us an insight into a typical high school student from Finland. “After listening to many young people that had been in the U.S. who liked it and learned a lot, I decided to also become an ex- change student. I wanted to live in another culture and get to know new people, and of course, learn the language. This year has been really worthwhile. In Finland after-school activities are not part of school, so I have enjoyed this at Alder. I especially liked football games and taking part in cross country and track.’’ After returning home Silja will have one year left in high school. Seniors 31 1. Gary Yoder 2. Harlan Yoder 3.

After much hoping and praying June 5, 1983 dawned as one beautiful day. Excited seniors bustled about lending a helping hand to anyone in need. The end result was as the 116 members of the class of '83 marched onto the field to the sounds of “Pomp and Circumstance.” The class listened to various speeches two of which were given by our Valedictorians Jennifer Merkle and Ernie Yutzy. Having our diplomas in hand we decided to give the crowd a little entertainment by throwing our caps into the air as a sign of finally reaching one of our biggest crossroads in life. wNnng o'Tendrhand6'81 VOlun,eers ,rom the population graduate ” hUrry a d 961 'nt° these 'ni9h,9owns' they'll let us 36 Graduation Deep concentration was used as Tina helps a classmate with her honors cords.

One such means of escape that a group of Alder students has found is a fantasy-role-playing game called Dungeons and Dragons. Tim Cheeseman and Darren Thompson started playing the game during their freshman school year. From that point their game has grown into a major pastime of theirs which exceeds $280.00 in expenses. Since the beginning of this school year new stu- dent Roy Herdman has joined Tim and Darren in playing (their group also includes 1977 graduate Dale Wilson). D and D is a game of imagination and fantasy that cannot compare to any other games. The components consist of 7 dice, 4 hardbook rule books, a large supply of pencils and graph paper, and 3 or more very adventurous players. Tim Cheeseman is what is known as the Dungeon Master in the game. He creates a make-believe Medieval world of swords and sorcery in which the players interact. The players, Roy and Darren, can opt to retain the persona of a fierce warrior, or a mystical wizard. The participants then escape into the age of chivalry where Roy and Darren slay monsters, rescue maidens and acquire treasure in the dangerous and magical campaigns designed by Tim. The game consumes large amounts of time in preparation and regular weekend play that lasts from 4-6 hours at a time. D and D has few restrictions and the action of the game extends for several months or longer until the players’ make-believe characters are killed or retired. It is a game system that offers endless oppor- tunities to expand one's creativity and imagination; and it gives 3 teen-agers the chance to relinquish all contact with reality and become the gallant heroes of yesteryear.

In 1973-79, he taught social studies and coached basketball at Alder. He then became Junior High principal. In 1982, he returned to Alder to become our Principal and Basketball Coach. He was greeted on his first day with many signs and the shrubbery was toilet papered. This im- mediately caused his first disciplinary proclama- tion “No Senior Privileges!” As the year prog- ressed relations improved and the class of “83” regained their privileges. The 82-83 year has been a good year. Students and staff together have had very smooth and good relations with Mr. Carpenter to make this year very rewarding.

Making Seville cookies gives Pam, David and Brenda a break from the regular Spanish class routine. Hand gestures enliven Mrs. Cross's explanation of French vocabulary words. The creativity involved in the study of Foreign Languages helps understand the different cultures. Pinatas and God’s Eyes were made to celebrate Christmas in Spanish classes. To become ac- quainted with Spanish cooking, students made Seville cookies. Crepes were a specialty of the French cuisine. Reports were done on different regions of France to help the students become aware of the geography of the land. A Secret Santa gift exchange was held in the French classes, in which students secretly gave food, gifts, and cards to other French students. holidays are celebrated by making God’s Eyes in ■_____________________________________________ Writing lab, a new addition to the curriculum is being utilized by Mrs. Beach and April Sagraves. nianLj Challenges Capture the minds of Students Concerning the English Language A new addition to the English Department is Writing Lab. In the Writing Lab, teachers appoint a time for each student to practice on their sentence structure and grammar in order to enhance their language skills. For the first time at Alder we have classes for Advanced Placement. For example in College Prep English, students who receive an “A” attain five points instead of the usual four points. Some upperclassmen were involved in fun entertainment while others strug- gled to achieve their teacher’s high standards. Many seniors left the dread- ed College Prep term papers until the last minute, then rushed to meet the deadline. Juniors in American Literature, participated in “Huck Finn Day” to celebrate the end of studying Huckleberry Finn. Tests might not be enjoyable but they are a necessary part of American Literature. American Lit brought Huckleberry Finn to life by dressing up as the characters and acting out the different roles. Intense concentration is evident on the faces of English 9 class. Curriculum 67 ExErcising thE mind and Body Has HEalthLj EffECtS Answering questions from the book is common classroom work for Health students. “Spotting” for classmates is a technique taught while using the trampoline. From calisthenics to studying health habits, Phys. Ed. and Health students gain knowledge on physical fitness. While being a required course, the different sports that are taught make Phys. Ed. exciting. These activities in- clude: jogging, bowling, softball, and one of the favorites — using the trampoline. The functions of the body and how it can be af- fected by drugs and poor health habits are taught to Health students. 68 Curriculum A highlight of Anatomy Class is dissecting cats during second semester. Is their experiment going up in smoke? Even if their experiment doesn't look good, at least Ernie, Trent and Gary do. In Lab, 5tudEnts Experiment With Scientific Theories Practical application in labs make science courses easier. Physics students develop their own solar ovens for cook- ing hot dogs while working with energy in class. Chemistry proves to be a blast when students analyze Mr. Lorson’s compounds and create their own formulas. Much to the dislike of students, cats are skinned and dissected while studying the human physiology. Focusing in on a micro-organism proves to be difficult. Curriculum 69 Staining wood in shop, Wendall works on his own. To make PLP class more in- triguing students are provided with a variety of projects outside the classroom. Teaching skills in Home Ec and Shop were a couple of the areas covered. They also planted a garden and nurtured their plants carefully. Field trips were taken to a bank and a factory. These trips helped the students learn the procedures that keep these businesses running. individualizEd Training, the BESt FEBturE of PLP In PLP, the students cover the basic areas of education: reading, writing and math. Bob puts the finishing touches on his shop project. Enjoying each other s company and making conversation is better than class work. 70 Curriculum Past, PrESEnt and FuturE RrE UbsErvEd in History Variety is added to History classes by offering a number of projects. In P.O.D. first semester classes participated in a mock election. Platforms and can- didates were chosen by the rival- ing classes for the student body and faculty to vote on. A trial was held in U.S. History classes on whether to convict Harry Truman for dropping the atomic bomb during W.W. II. The prosecuting and defense lawyers presented their cases for the jury to decide the verdict. A time capsule containing ar- tifacts was buried by the Sociology class. It is to be dug up in thirty years by a future Sociology class, in order to learn about our culture. From the exasperated look on Mr. Hitchens face,, maps aren’t making the point any clearer. Students had a chance to participate in the mock election held by first semester POD classes Curriculum 71 The Computer Age Has Arrived to [Tlath Class Like many students, Scott prepares for the computer age. With the help of computers, the Math Department con- tinued to grow this year. A com- puter class was offered each semester for students in- terested in computer related careers or for just getting ac- quainted with the computer. Basic language and programm- ing were the principle areas covered in this class. The practical application of the regular math courses is still important. Figuring car costs, home insurance and small loans were taught to Consumer Math students. One thing that hasn’t chang- ed in the Math Department is Mr. DeMooy’s fish stories. These are told to the fearless ten people who make up Trig class in order to break the monotony of sines and cosines. BJUiUiH Concentrating on programming, Andy soon forgets all the typing skills he has learned. With the help of Mrs. Cooke, Rod overcomes his confusion in algebra. Giving extra geometry homework in class gives Mr DeMooy time to relax during his busy day 72 Curriculum Careful studying of the copy Is needed before Chris starts to type so she won't make unnecessary mistakes. Intense concentration is evident on the faces of these young typists, as they complete drills for awards. Computers Introduced in Business Classes The introduction of Word Pro- cessing to the Office Procedures class has created a lot of interest and at the same time a lot of con- fusion. Since there are only 3 com- puters in the school the “wheels” of the computing tables are clock- ing a lot of hours. Nevertheless, this training will add another marketable job skill for Alder graduates. Typing I was one of Kris’ favorite classes.

In order to prepare students for a possible future in farming or in- dustrial arts, many areas of these fields are studied. Farm manage- ment and taxes are reviewed in Vo Ag III and IV, while beef and swine production are studied in Vo Ag I and II. While Vo Ag usually consists of classroom work, Shop students work on individualized projects. These may include shelves, letter holders and small pieces of fur- niture.

Jonathan Alder’s football team’s future seemed quite hopeless. Facing the toughest schedule in the Central Buckeye League and only a 25 member squad, Alder showed lack of depth and experience. Alder’s unit came together the first game and the defense really showed its strength, holding Olentangy to only one first down. The next five losses could be attributed to the lack of offensive strength. The defense held tough, and coming off a 54-0 defeat by Academy, the Pioneers swept the next 3 games beating North Union, Grandview, and New Albany. Marysville proved too big for Alder to handle and the Pioneers finished the season by losing, 14-0. Alder’s defense held tough throughout the entire year as Alder finished with a record of 4-6. Although the team finished with a losing record, Alder was full of talented winners. On offense, flanker, Jerry Young, received second team CBL honors while finishing second in most receptions. Trent Edwards also finished fourth in most receptions in the CBL at right end. Defensively, Alder had one of its best units headed by Pat Cooper and Dave Fet- ty. Pat, who led our team in tackles, with 215, received honors by being selected to first team CBL linebacker and honorable mention in the state. Fetty was selected to first team CBL at noseguard and Trent Ed- wards was chosen to the second team CBL at free safety while finishing fourth in most interceptions. Pat, in addition to CBL awards, received a full ride scholarship from Ball State University. Overall the 1982 Alder football season produced a lot of winners and good times for those involved.

Cooper’s Final Year in Football — A Great Success “This is what I’ve worked for, it’s all finally paying off,” commented Pat Cooper of his full ride scholarship to Ball State University. Cooper, leading Central Ohio with 230 tackles made All Conference and Second Team All District his senior year at Alder, thus prompting the Ball State scholarship offer. This year Cooper made 38 punts for a 37.9 yard average, had 15 kick-off returns for an average of 26 yards and 24 rushes for 200 yards. Having played under Coach John Rockne, and Craig Phillips Cooper feels that he has matured in his posi- tion. Of Rockne, Cooper states “He’s helped me learn to discipline myself. I’ve gained a lot of self confidence through working with him. The game that Pat remembered in particular is the victory over West Jef- ferson his sophomore year. “That was the sorest day of my life” mused Cooper, “I never thought I’d wake up the next day.” Not considering professional ball after college, Pat plans to go into Business Management. “College football is all I’ve wanted, all I’ve worked for, and now with a full ride at Ball State, that work has finally paid off.

Facing a host of tough opponents the girl’s volleyball team heartily achieved a record of 10-12 during this year’s season. The 1983 volleyball team possessed much talent in serving and offense and maintained excellent team work. The varsity squad, coached by Miss Schwendeman and reserve squad, coached by Mr. Stoll, endured a year of upsets and disappointments. After two losses in the middle of the year the Alder team stormed back with a four game winning streak defeating Buckeye Valley, Briggs, Grandview and Bexley. The team played in the Westland In- vitational winning over Briggs and los- ing to Whitehall and Westerville North. Also, competing in the sectionals Alder defeated Briggs again but lost to Bishop Ready.

A few moments for rest and to pose for the camera have been earned by retur- ning letterman Chad Recob 94 Cross Country A thorough warmup is a crucial element in the performance of the team. In its second year of ex- istance the cross country team seemed to have, from all outward appearance, just another “run of the mill” season. But really, they im- proved because there was a six tenths mile added to the course which really showed that the stamina and en- durance were greater. Another change was in team spirit. During their first year they were more individualized; this year they became more of a team. New talent such as Doug Knisely and Don Schirtz- inger aided the veteran run- ners. The overall record was 0-8 in the team meets. Ron Branom placed twenty- second in the Districts and competed in the Sectionals at Pine Hills Country Club in Bloom Carroll, Ohio. He also participated in events other than school scheduled events, such as a five mile marathon. Runners The pre-course stretch is essential to protect runners from injury. □n the move Bridges and other obstacles were anticipated and gave no problems to Chad and Don. As a veteran cross-country runner, Carl completes his course with determination and energy to spare. minute advice could mean a better time if the team could get rid of those begin- “jitters” and listen carefully to Coach Ray Russell. Even though exhaustion and despera- tion have overcome Don, he still battles to finish the race.

FettLj Coes ta StatE Even with Alder’s team suffering loss after loss there were bright spots throughout the season. Dave Fetty was one of these bright spots. Possessing the talent and physical agility to place fourth in the state Dave pushed himself to become bet- ter. Putting in daily strenuous train- ing and being in shape when it came to wrestling matches helped Dave defeat all but one of his opponents. With the help of Coaches Hitchens and Viccari Dave developed a style and technique which was hard to equal. Dave’s ability and prowess brought pride to the Pioneers.

The members were optimistic and the coaches, Mr. Jones, Mr. Hitchens were, of course, sure that we “could lick the world.’’ The season started slow because the weather refused to cooperate. Proof that the coaches and players never gave up is evident by the fact that five games were lost by only one run. In the past the Alder softball team has never gotten past the first game in tournament. This year a jubilant team beat Mt. Gilead at Alder.

Ending the season with a record of 2-6 the team had discovered many people’s new potential in events they were new at. Some of Alder’s stronger events were the relays. The 400 meter relay team placed second in the CBL and the 3200 meter team placed third. Matt Cooper and Rod Bidwell did well, plac- ing second in the 800 meter run and third in the 100 meter dash respectively. Overall the Alder team achieved fourth in the CBL.

The seniors walked away with a victory over the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, proving their artistic and creative ability. To arouse the spirit for the football game ahead, a powder puff foot- ball game and bonfire were held. At the football game, against North Union, the excitement was apparent. The Homecoming fever was brought to a climax when Karen Rush crowned Teri Williams as the 82-83 Homecoming Queen. After the victory over North Union, crowds were seen dancing to the beat of a Q FM 96 disc jockey.

Mrs. Hill led this year’s chorus through another successful year that included guest performers, performances for the graduation, the arts festival, and the elementary schools. Other activities in- cluded the Christmas concert, the selling of Snickers bars, and the traditional choir picnic at Metropolitan Park. The officers of the mixed chorus were Presi- dent — Mark Syx, V.-Pres. — Teri Miller, and Sec. Treas. — Debbie Graber. The symphonic choir also kept very busy in 1983. In addition to performing for all the occasions the mixed chorus did, they also competed in singing con- tests, performed for the senior citizens, and the Madison County Retired Teachers. The symphonic choir officers were President — Richard Yutzy, V.- Pres. — Bruce Beach, Sec. Treas. — Rita Wellman.

Circus, Full af Color Brilliance and Outstanding Performers Travels to Rider Carnival is the story of a young girl named Lily, who found and entered the world of a small cir- cus. She gradually became a part of it by experiencing pain and re- jection along with love and joy. She worked hard to make people happy by adding new ideas, ra- diance and life to the circus. Soon, with the help of others, the tiny cir- cus became a huge success. This is the story of many a thes- pian at Alder. We enter the world of theatre, go through much pain and joy, then add new ideas and hard work. The result is a master- piece filled with talent and life. To the numerous thespians leaving Alder, we extend our thanks for the unforgettable times. To the oncoming ones our stage is left empty for you and our wonderful directors to once again bring love, radiance and life to the Alder theatre. Good luck!

Advanced Art students had in- dividual displays — a collection of the works produced throughout the year. This was a new format for the class and Mr. Jones feels the project was a unique success. “I was surprised at how well the students worked under the pressure of a deadline.” Art I and Leisure Art had collec- tive displays on tables and trifolds. Home Ec classes featured some of their work. Symphonic Choir, Mixed Chorus and Band performed Sunday afternoon, and as an added at- traction, the cast of this year’s musical, “Carnival,” re-enacted a scene from the production. t 1 i’ ' ■v ’ ?

This year was no different. In late August, band camp began and the personality of the band was discovered. When Mr. Spencer was working on a show the senior band members would take over. During these times the band seemed to work harder since the elder members had fond memories of their first sessions in the marching band. Mr. Spencer did things that one would not ex- pect to see a director doing such as playing the tuba or letting the cymbal players become head majorettes. When the first show was prac- ticed by the band it seemed doubtful that we would get it right. But time and patience seemed to pay off and the first show was a success. The second show featured the talents of senior band member, Pam Wilson and freshman trombone player, David Walker. They both had solos in the song “Tomorrow,” from the Broadway hit, “Annie.” The final performance was a touching and memorable moment for all of those involved, Mr. Spencer, the seniors and their parents. Twirling a fire baton can be frightening, but inexperienced Lisa has it under control. Under the intensifying lights, the band gives a dramatic and polished performance. 134 Marching Band 1982-83 Majorettes: Kneeling: Kathy Aitchison, Jeannie Robinette.

For the past two years the band has tried desperately to earn a Superior rating, and each year have come up empty handed. This year brought improvement to the sight reading portion of the program, but it was not enough to raise the overall rating. It was another year of being “so close but yet so far.” The Woodwind Section: First Row: Julie Potter, Loretta Wellman, Janet Clevenger, Kathy Aitichison, Jackie Kidd, Liss Wright, Jen- nifer Merkle.

The first duty was to solicit ads. In order to complete this task, the staff preyed upon unsuspecting merchants, seeking the necessary monetary funds. Though this mission seemed endless, it was finished. Next the theme of “Alder the Final Fron- tier,” was selected. After this task was completed, the staff enjoyed a short vaca- tion. Since there was no work for the crew, they soon found alter- native ways to occupy their time. They could be found everywhere, with the exception of the year- book room. Mrs. Sayre tried every way imaginable to keep track of her staff, but nothing short of food could keep them in the right place. Somehow Mrs. Sayre was able to keep her sanity and the staff did get enough work done to meet the deadline without too much trouble.

Winning was not a hard task. During the district com- petition, hardly anyone went home empty-handed. Many winners also took home more than one award. First place through fifth place win- ners then went on to the state conference in Dayton, Ohio. A whole weekend was spent going to dinners, listening to speakers, and once again competing for first place. Everybody did very well. Lynn Bonacci and Pam Graber both walked away with first place in Typing I and Typing II. These two then went on to compete in the national competition in California. Selling candy bars was the ma- jor money-making project for the year. The money made was donated to district winners to help pay for their trip to the Dayton State Conference. After this event, almost all money made was given to Pam and Lynn to aid in their long trip to California. Besides going to competitions and selling candy bars, FBLA members also had time for fun and games. At Show Biz Pizza Place, members were seen doing all sorts of things.

It is the highest high school academic honor given and recognizes the students who carry a 3.2 grade point average and exhibit outstanding qualities in leadership, character and service. Teamwork was essential for carrying out the various obligations that NHS had this year. The members held their annual greens sale, recognized honor students, and volunteered their services at graduation and the library. Possibly the most rewarding event that the past members and the new inductees par- ticipate in is the tapping ceremony. On the day of tapping the new members receive the thrill of being recognized for their achievements; and the previous members take pride in pass- ing on the responsibilities and privileges. In addition to all of the duties performed by NHS, the organization also attended a play and went out to eat together. As a finale to a great year, the juniors served the seniors a breakfast.

There was constantly something to be done. Bake sales were a big money- making project throughout the year. The money made from them helped the organization with their donations to the Children’s Hospital, Resource Development Fund, State Scholarships, and community, school and chapter projects. Recreation was not an event forgotten. An FFA FHA Hayride and a Halloween Party brought much excitement to all FHA members. There were good tur- nouts at all recreational activities. Not only did the FHA members aid their school and community but they displayed their talents at the FHA State Convention held at Veteran’s Memorial in Columbus.

FTR Expands Its Horizons Many of the students who are in- terested in a career as a teacher have joined FTA. This club allows its members to excel in areas that would be helpful to them as a teacher. Some of these projects completed by the FTA include, babysitting at the open house, caroling at Christmas, and coloring Easter eggs. To show their appreciation for the teachers, they cooked breakfast. Another pro- ject that the club undertook was the tutoring of some of the students at Canaan Elementary School. At the Awards Assembly in May, Mrs. Cooke awarded pins and bars to those club members who earned one hundred points or more. Helping the elementary school students in an Easter Egg hunt was one of the more fun activities of the club this year. Can cooking breakfast possibly be preparing Mary for a career as a teacher?

FFA 163 Curriculum Clubs SPANISH CLUB Trying to do a lot of things with a small amount of people is quite hard, but this year’s Spanish Club seemed to manage very well. Many of the ac- tivities that the group undertook were fun, such as the pinata party or educational, as the taste-testing meeting with the French club. As a Christmas tradition, the Spanish club had its pinata party, which allowed participants to act like greedy children and dive for candy. But on the cultural side, they joined the French club in a salute to the fine foods of their countries. This proved to be both learning and fattening for all those involved. Having an exchange student enabled the members to learn more about the Spar culture.

Math Club 165 RssEmbliES EntErtaining and Educational A variety of surprises greeted Alder students in assemblies this year. They ranged from a fiery ex-marine to a drug and alcohol awareness program. We were faced with financial problems when the school year started so Mr. Douglas and Nancy Chapman, co-chairman of the steering committee, explained the AII-For-1% cam- paign to the student body. When Ranger Gary Horton visited our school he spoke of everything from fear of Soviet communism to the women’s movement and asked us the question “What makes your life worth living?” Faculty-student intramurals in volleyball, football and basketball brought out the com- petitive nature in teachers and students alike. Daring students entertained us in the FBLA talent show while the student council treated us to the movie “Victory.” The Madison County Board of Health spon- sored an alcohol awareness day with workshops, discussions and movies. Sometimes the audience can be more amusing than the entertainment. Clayton looks questioningly at Pat, hoping the call will be In his favor. UiisTband UmberS but big on sound was a 9°°d way to describe Bruce Beach won summer the talent show with a song he wrote last 166 Assemblies A very forceful and energetic patriotic program on pride and ideals was presented to the students by Ex. U.S. Army Ranger Gary Horton. Ex-alcoholics discussed the experiences they had gone through during their sickness and the rough road to recovery. The fact that more teenagers are involved In driving accidents than any other age group was one of the startling statistics quoted by a representative of the Ohio Department of Highway Safety. A pep talk for the AII-For-1% campaign enlightened the student body.

Our four year journey through space on the star- ship “Pioneer” has ended but the memories will live on for lightyears. Soon new crew members will board and take off on another voyage full of memorable experiences and lasting friendships. The 1983 Powder Horn Staff has chartered, planned, and followed through on a flight pattern that is now terminated. We hope it has been a smooth, enjoyable flight through the 1982-83 school year.
