However, the validity of this statement is depen- dent on the unity of those numbers. Al- though KHS is by no means a large school, we do have the advan- tage of unity. At Kingston the people are more closely-knit and supportive of the entirety of our school system-hereby forming one united force rather than smaller diversive cliques that may be found elsewhere. Above Left: Mike Byers and Greg Wenzlaff dem- onstrate our ability to lean on one another. Above Right: James McLemore shows his inner strength. Below: Strength in numbers at KHS. 2 Ways We Show Our Strength Above; Richie Asher taking time to do it right. Right: Here Dave Skinner shows his ability to get the job done. Through the years, Kingston has gone through many trying times, but somehow we did more than weather the storm. Many school districts are going through some sort of crises , such as teacher strikes, business problems, cut backs in athletics, but good ol Kingston, strengthened almost en- tirely by the Kingston community, stood by us, took problems head on and solved them. The Education and Sports departments at Kingston are continually striding for- ward to meet the needs of the students and community. Kingston is steadily im- proving the education. They're trying to give the students the best guality education there is. Sports are also on the uprise. Such organizations as the athletic and band boosters continue to ensure our groups of having those little extras that make such a big difference. The students, faculty, and community put all their efforts into making our school district the very best it can be. We'd like to take this time to say thank you for supporting everything our school does. Without you holding up our pyramid we would crumble. 3.

Some are more involved in fun and activities than in homework. For a se- lect few, grades are very important and play a major role in their 1ives. They are lucky enough to have achieved an equal balance of education and activities. For this we salute you... The Top Ten. Greg DeBlois 10.

Daryl Marquardt Helen Eschtruth Tim K1imek Del la Marquardt Gary Megge � mw The senior class par- ticipated In many activ- ities during the year, which brought them many memories. Homecoming activities were very exciting. They captured first place in the spirit assembly and also In the float com- petition -for the fourth year In a row. As you can see, the seniors have had a fun- filled year. In the years to come, these memories will be close In their hearts. Sherrie Noto Wow, how I wish I were a Senior, that's how I felt when I was in Junior High. How, that I finally am a member of the grad- uating class, I realize that being a Senior has its disadvantages, as well as advantaoes. Thinking about gradu- ation brought tears to my eyes many times. I think how it's going to be when I have to walk out the school doors and become a responsible adult instead of a secure high school student confined behind school walls. Al1 of a sudden there's a zillion questions that I must an- swer. Do you know what it's like to sign Senior pic- tures to the friends closest to you? It's really hard. There is never enough room on the back of the picture to say what you feel. Memory books can be thought of as good-bye books. They are cherished memories of friends and good times throughout the years in school. I know this sounds as if being a senior isn't that great, but yea, it is. It's just that get- ting toward the end of the year I began to re- member all the great times my class has had together, and I realize it's going to be hard to say good-bye.

Above: Shelley Engler putting the ball up for another one of her hot pop shots for two. The Cardiac Cagers showed in many ways that they were the better team� With the abundance of experience in six returning letter win- ners, their team was stronger and more unified. The season ended 9-9 for the best win and loss record ever. The team often went into overtime, play- ing 5, three quarter games. The Cardiac Cagers broke five new records to end their season. The team averaged 50 points and 60 re- bounds per game. They had 11 games where the final score was 5 points or less apart. There was not a game where KHS was totally dominated; they were always able to keep things excit- ing . 23. Receiving extra outstanding awards were Shelley Engler who was awarded most Valuable player. First Team All Con- ference League, and Second Team All Ad- vertiser. Deb Cum- mings received the Cardinal award. First Team All Conference League and All Adver- tiser Honorable men- tion. Both girls re- ceived, in addition, a four year apprecia- tion award. Lynn Ruggles, Jenni Lalko, and Diane Borek also received the appreci- ation award. With the strengths they had , several team and in- dividual records were broken this year. The team set a new scor- ing record with 870 points for the season and averaged 49.4 points per game. A new rebound record was set - 1102, with the average of 61.2 per game. Five in- dividual records were broken this season by Lynn Ruggles, Shelley Engler, and Deb Cummings. Two other girls who helped out the team were Faye Gilmore and Tammy Remsing, -Deanna Gusek, Denise James, and Sophomore Lori Smith also made many contributions to the season. They will be returning lettermen and also next year's muscles. Coach Crane’s Julie Galubenski thinking, I want to go home. Cari Copeland run- ning in her fourth State Meet. Karyn Schneider, moving her way up throuqh the pack. Good Job, Karyn]! Monica Tait, in her first State Meet, doing a very fine job. 24. Michelle Landrum, hoping to finish far up in the pack. I think she'll do it! That's right, What a Crew! This year's cross country team, under sec- ond year coach. Miss Crane, was a very uni- fied team. They helped and encouraged each other throughout all the practices and meets and always were there for one another. That really makes a difference. Both teams had very competitive seasons. Since Kingston, Mayville, and A-F are the only class D schools that have teams, we had to run against many larger B and C schools. Con- sidering the amount of experience we have on our teams, with only two returning seniors, one junior, and one sopho- more, we did quite well. The boys ran in Region- als and ended up ninth place. The girls, a week later, ran at State and placed ninth also. Next year, seniors Rob Miracle, Julie Galu- benski, Cari Copeland, and Karen Schneider will be missed due to gradu- ation. So that means more runners will be needed. We're sorry guys, but we were unable to get any pictures of you this year. You see, we took pictures at the State Meet, and well,you guys weren't there. Again, we apologize. We would like to commend you on the very fine work and all the effort you've shown throughout the season. You worked hard and I'm sure the school recog- nizes it. Continue to reach your goals as runners. Cross Country Crew 25. Above: Wade Campbell look- ing to cut up field. Right: Greg Wenzlaff plow- ing through the line. Below: Coach Rea and Capt.

The fighting Cardinals ended up this year with a winning sea- son. Their record was 5-4, beating Marlette A-F, Peck, North Hu- ron and Dryden. These guys paid their dues over the past few years and it finally showed in the games they played. It was a team effort with many shining in- dividual stars. De- fensively, Greg Wenz- laff led the way with 52 tackles, followed by Roy Fritz with 46. Both were named to the Saginaw News Class D All-Area foot- ball team. Also, Darren Mathews, Mike Byers, and Mike Stark were honorable men- tion picks this year for the Saginaw News. Offensively, quarter- back Mike Byers threw 8 touchdown passes for the season. Mike will be a main hope for next year as he may again lead the team into another winning season. Lead- ing rushers were Greg Wenzlaff with 548 yards and Wade Camp- bell with 509. Over- all, the Cardinal red machine did well and was tough throughout the season. Good Job! Coach Rea directing his team into base defense. Of course, onlookers may think he's not too happy with an official's call. Above: Coach,John Zeller cheering team on. . Above: Cari Copeland going up 1S to block opponent, Joan Mosack, from OwenGage.

They ended up second in the league, follow- ing a very strong Caseville team. Captains, Shelley Engler and Jenni Lalko, led the team with their leadership abil- ities. Jenni was pick- ed to the Tuscola County Advertiser first team, while Shelley was chosen for the second team. Also, Denise James was an honorable mention pick this year. The strong point of this team was the at - titude of the players. Everyone worked for our team goals and strived to achieve them. Excellent work girls! Strive to be 1 next year. 29 Varsity basketball made the initial steps to turning things around this year. Although a five hundred season slip- ped away at the end, the year was not with- out victory and prom- ise for the future. Three starters will be returning with some good offensive talent. Their league rec- ord was 5-11 beating OwenGage, Peck(twice), Port Hope, and Akron- Fairgrove. Experience showed through the leadership abilities in captains, Darren Mathews and Greg Wenzlaff. There were many key players, both offensively and defensively, which made this team strong. What will the fu - ture hold for Kingston basketball? With many returning, experi- enced starters, they should become a very strong team.

The guys were 5-3, losing to A-F, Deckerville and OwenGage. In the league meet, the girls finished second, following A-F. The guys earned fourth following A-F, Deckerville and North Huron. Outstanding per- formers were Lisa Ro- berson, the MVP, who attended Meet of Champs and State; Deb Cummings, went to Meet of Champs and State,also; and Julie Galubenski, the Car- dinal Award winner, participated in Meet of Champs. Gary Megge, the MVP and Ken Pierce, Greg DeBlois and Bryan Campbell achieved the honor of running in Meet of Champs and State.

Sophomores Margaret Mir- acle, Lisa Roberson, and Shari Walker played an important role in the team's success. Freshmen Julie Burns, Deb Cos- way, Lena Fritz, Deb Kasdorf, Alisa Stark, and Amy Widger contributed the ingredients necessary to win. Even though the Jr. High Girls never won a game this year, their defense has been good most of the time. Much improvement is needed in their shooting ,however; but if that comes so will some wins. The seventh grade girls have played some good games with Shawn Smith and Tammy Gusek put- ting in consistently good ef - forts Audra McQueen, Wanda Pretzer, and Pam Steele have shown much improvement, as well. Other prospects for next year are Helen Richmond, Erica Lyon, Sharon Newsome, Amy Rieck, Holly Conely, Michelle Kasdorf, Lynn Creason and Michelle Mou- ton. Improvement is very evident in the eigth grade basketball team. Julie Lis, Jackie Skin- ner, Beth Rieck, Lisa Weitschat, and Sarah Stoll have been play- ing very good games this year. Stephanie Burns and Kris Kotsch are improving, and adding much needed help. Kim Rieck, Kim Schott were also assets to their team. Julie Sommerville, Lisa Meir, Shelly Noto,and An- gie Huizer have also shown more interest in this year's team. Your hustle and determination will pay off.

The overall rec- ord was 5-3-1 and in their own words, Totally awesome. In six of the games, they allowed one touchdown and one conversion or less. In four games,the future Cards scored 3 touchdowns or more and broke forty points twice. Team leaders were Jeff Boyle and Brad Widger, the team cap- tians. Defensive force was in the form of Dr Mike David. The offense functioned smoothly due to unselfish line play and smoothness of new quarterback, Larry Smith. The future of Kingston football is looking very bright lately. Our Junior High team went 3-1-1, J.V.'s 5-3-1 and Varsity 5-4. Many thanks Coach Rea and staff for making us the winner we've been waiting to be. of Football The Kingston Junior High football team showed off their numer- ous skills this season. The young Cards ended it with a record of three wins, one loss, and one tie. They excelled under the direction of coach, Jason Koehler. While the guys did lose to Mayville at the beginning of the season, their determination and spirit never seemed to waver. Finishing off the season, they came back to defeat the Wildcats. Leading the Cards in offense were Mark James, Jeff Koehler, and Troy Pierce. Defensive strengths were Carl Main and Mark James. A job well done guys! We'll be watching for you next year! The J.V. volleyball team had yet another successful season this year. With a good, strong J.V. team, the prospects for a 1 Var- sity team are very likely. Returning to the J.V.'s will be Marcia Britton and Julie Burns, two very con- sistent servers, as well as others with J.V. experi- ence. Other stars were sophomores, Brenda Clouse and Shari Walker, -two starters that the J.V. team will miss and the varsity team will welcome. The J.V. guys basketball team, under fourth year coach, Mr. Rea, had another successful year. Their rec- ord was 12-6. Key players were Marcel Oliver, the high scorer; Brad Widger, the top re- bounder; and Dave Skinner, the hustling ball handler. As always, Mr. Rea has come through again. With his guidance, coaching a- bility and experience the J.V. basketball team will always shine. 40. B • BOPPERS Although the seventh grades ball handling was suspect they -were extremely talented offensively. They executed a good press defense but they still need work on the fundamentals. Not losing to any league team, the seventh grade ended the season with a 7-5 record. Hopefully, their goal to improve upon this record is achieved. Good Job Guys Having a never quit attitude attri- buted to the making of a sound base fofr the eighth grades good press defense. Their shooting skills need work, but being a very coachable team they should acquire these talents in time. Keep up the good work; we'll be look- ing forward to hav- ing you on the Varsity Squad, some- day. F r e $ m a n This year our Jr. High track teams did a great job against some top competitors. Mr. Rapson was excellent in coaching these two teams in his first year . The boy • s team ended the season with a 4-3 record. The girl's team didn’t finish badly. Their record was 5-2. Good job to all runners and coach. Uncertain of their future, the freshmen basketball players hesitantly looked to- ward the upcoming sea- son. Just when things seemed hopeless, in stepped Mr. Priestap and quickly the pieces fell into place. The team ended up with a 500 record- only the second in recent years. T R A C K 42. 8th These cheerleaders, from the 7th grade squad to the varsity, demonstrated their talents all season long. The young ladies had a slow start, but soon the necessary qualities such as imagination, co- ordination, and pep developed into sharp looking natural abilities. The determination in these gals certainly shows, and we wish them many more strong seasons. We also hope that they have success in reaching all the goals they nave set for themselves. Give me a ‘R’ These girls demonstrated their dexterity for both home crowds and host schools alike. Team cheers during football keep everyone active and warm. The season was exhila- rating, so the girls had no trouble keeping spirits up. 44. A Rising to the Occasions i ACTIVITIES Homecoming............WIN The last home- coming we'll ever participate in as a class has come and gone. We've had very memorable times in the past Homecomings, times that I'm sure we'll all cherish forever. I can remember when I was in elemen- tary school and couldn't wait until our class was in high school to start building floats and doing all the fun things kids described as Crazy! Remember our first homecoming? We just laughed at each other and the way we were dressed. To think back now, even as 7th graders, we were pretty wild. Also, remember the spirit rally at the end of the week. I'll never forget winning the golden megaphone. Our class just went bannanas because we were so happy. Ever since 7th grade we worked for it. Never forget dressing up all week, making spirit signs, and tug-of-wars. Those, too, were highlights of homecoming- our last one. Above are similar views submitted by our editors. But who is home- coming for? It s for those friends who've already graduated, its their time to come home and be a part of everything again. Next year when its my turn to come home I'm sure I'll remember all the things that we did while in school. Our Senior memories will come alive once more as we reminisce with the friends we left behind after gradu- ation. I'm looking forward to when its my turn to come home, Remember being in 7th grade and wishing to be a Senior? I couldn't wait until our class was older, sitting down at the other end of the bleachers, and being as loud as Seniors are. Well now, we're finally here and I’ll admit, it's a little scary. Imagine what it's going to feel like being out in the world without the security of your friends around you. Above: Big Red and the Pep Club show their enthusiasm during their half time parade.

Victory was ours Homecoming 1982. We proved that football is a team sport and also that KHS can play good football. The 14-8 victory was important, more so than any other game of the season to that point, because the people of KHS past, that had played ball for Kingston, were checking out their old positions along with parents and friends. They saw a well played game and also a Kingston win. Left: Seniors come through again as they take first place with their float, Chopper Command 0 There were many extraordinary floats built this year by all of the students. Receiving 2nd place were the Juniors whose theme was, Cards Pac Peck. A tie for 3rd place brought the Sophomores and Freshmen together. The 10th grade decorated their float with the subject of, KHS The Great Defenders, while the Freshmen designed theirs with the theme of, Berserk. Coming in with 4th place was the 8th grade with the theme of, Cardinal Kong. The 7th grade received 5th place with the theme, Spiders. As you can tell, the floats were designed by the titles of Video games. Everyone did a very fine job and all should be proud of their fine efforts. 48.

Above: The radiant candidates for Queen during the parade, anxiously awaiting halftime. Below: Nervous prince candidates chat- ting to calm themselves. Crowning ceremonies were performed at halftime of the football game. The Senior candidates for Queen were Shelley Engler, Melanie Raymond, and Jenni Lalko; King candidates were Greg Wenzlaff, Wade Campbell, and Darren Mathews. Nominees for Prince were Dave Megge, Jeff Barden, and Joel Stutz; Princess candidates were Kris Kotsch, Kim Rieck, and Becky Raymond. These candidates were chosen from their classes to represent them and be the royalities chosen at Homecoming. 49. STUDENT COUNCIL a strong voice Student Council Representatives 7th Grade Jeff Hussan Pam Steele Kale Koehler 8th Grade Dave Megge Jeff Barden Kelly Schieweck 9th Grade Darla Sullins Monica Tait Dave Green 10th Grade Larry Smith Annette O’Dell Jamie Syms 11th Grade The main purpose of our student council is to inspire good school morale and represent the students' feelings. The building up of enthusiasm is created through the assemblies and many organized ac- tivities . Because of these assemblies, the students become more in- volved and this helps motivate them into en- joying and taking pride in K.H.S. The student council's other main responsibil- ity is to serve its classmates. It is their elected duty to take the ideas and opinions of their classmates, decide upon its so called con- stitutionality, and pre- sent it to the admini- strators. To reach this, the council must be in- formed of their class's feelings in order to accomplish a desired goal. In the future, the student council hopes to become more productive through positive input from the student body and the representatives. There isn't a better ex- ample of dedication than in the student council officers. President, Jenni Lalko, with the help of V.P.,Richie Ash- er, keeps the events that most concern the school running smoothly. We are very grateful to have them as a part of our student council.

The members are chosen by a select group of teachers and administrators on the basis of character, scholarship, leadership and service. Twelve new mem- bers ranging from freshmen to seniors were added this year at the April 28, induction ceremony. The recognition these students have received is well earned and we're sure they will do honor to our school and themselves in the future.

The newspaper staff, under the supervision of Mrs. Denhoff, is work- ing toward another suc- cessful year in giving the school all the 1oca1 news. They1 re working hard, trying to make the newspaper, The Cardinal Times, the best it can be. There are many things you have to do to get the newspaper format perfect. You have to research your story, write it in rough draft form, proofread it, correct any mistakes, rough type it, then at last, final type your story. The people on the news- paper staff are doing a good job at this and should be recognized as a group that gets the job done right! The papers so far have been showing con- sistent improvement and some nice variations. Good Job! The Pep Club, sponsored by Miss Leh- man has done many things to promote spirit in our school. This year they bought a musical megaphone that they played during homecoming. The group also sold spirit buttons and cheered, cheered, cheered! They have sold cheese and sausage, and have raf- fled off a stereo to make some money. This club is trying to make spirit in our school something to be proud of, and we're proud of them. 52 Helping Hands...� Cafeteria What advantages are there in working in the cafeteria? None, I can think of! ! Besides learning how to cook, getting dish pan hands and blisters from the mops. HA! Seriously, what would our cooks do without their aides? It could take hours for them to make our lunches. No one would want students to starve, would they? It also gives students a chance for some practical, on the job work experi- ence . Library Library aides, with Mrs. Denhoff, do many different types of jobs. They check out books, clean shelves, and do many other jobs for her. These aides do a very good job of helping. Besides, the library is the place everyone wants to go, and this way they don't need daily excuses to be there. 53. The Yearbook Staff Being on the yearbook. Is so much fun you see.

Julie As the Editor of the yearbook for the past three years and being on staff for 4 years now,I find it hard to say good-bye.

Writing copy, choosing pictures, de- signing layouts and finalizing all the pages. Most of all it's, You want it done when? Yesterday, was usually the answer. This is a learning expe- rience , and finding out how to make choices is a valuable skill.

They made strong individual efforts and collaborated those efforts at their district festival. There, they received a II division rating. Also,they found a way to make their spring concert unique from all the other per- formances . Rather than conforming to the usual format, they made the concert special by having an ice cream social precede the music. The selections were taken from the, Big Band Era. They were a perfect choice for an ice cream social. A commendable job, senior band and Mr. Smith. !J 0 JV JV Above: Cathy Szostak tuning the band.

Wanted: 7 men, 8 wom- en, 2 prompters, 4 make- up people,and a set crew to perform a play called, Rest Assured. Contact Mr. Jim Priestap or his assistant. Bob Sims. Well as you know, this want-ad was taken quite seriously. Tryouts were performed for this pro- duction and 12 of the best actors and actresses were chosen for parts that varied from the lead played by Derek Morell, to the smallest part. Each individual that re- ceived a part had to make a commitment of memori- zation of their lines. This seemed to be some- what of a difficulty at one point for the cast members. Due to poor wea- ther conditions the week of the play, two very im- portant practices were canceled and the thought of postponing was con- sidered. Inspite of the weather conditions and other difficulties, the cast of, Rest Assured;' was ready. Two evening perfor- mances were put on by the cast of Derek Morell, Jenni Lalko, Richie Asher, Mike Stark, Matt Kopko, Lorraine Dadacki, Russel Grieve, Jill Reehl, Greg DeBlois, Melanie Raymond, Lisa Kelly, Tammy Steele, Becky Raymond, Amy Rieck, and Ken Pierce.

Mr. Cameron In 1966, Kingston Schools found the person needed to put the school system, on it's feet and on the way. Mr. Cameron was that man, and he now has the school in great shape- far bet- ter than many in the area. From Cement City came our man, Mr. C., ready and willing, as the new superintendent, to find Kingston a well deserved place in the black. By 1969, the fifty thousand dollar debt was gone, and Kingston had at least one thing going for it- Mr. C. Recently, no programs have been cut, unlike other schools' schedules. Once again, we have Mr. C. to thank for this. We've maintained a strong system throughout his years here,and hopefully his influence will stay with us for years to come. Mr. Cameron has brought us a long way. If we don't soon for- get the lessons we've learned at least we will be able to save part of what this wise leader has brought to Kingston. Thank you, Mr. C.,and we're glad you're staying in the com- munity. 85 Rind jl A nlon (J) ) -JlaL Continuous Service Since 1912 Offering Complete Service in Banking THE KINGSTON STATE BANK (Offices at Kingston, Clifford, Snover __683-2237, 761-7531 , 672-9141 5h Savings Account Daily Savings Passbook Monthly Payment Loans Safe Deposit Boxes Industrial Loans Drive-Up Windows Safe-Keeping Certificates of Deposit Real Estate Mortgages Travelers Checks Night Depository Auto and Implement Loans Christmas Clubs Collecting 86.

How do I get this stupid lock open? Is he always that mean? Where's the gym? As the year draws to a close, their questions are answered, and obsta- cles are overcome. They start enjoying the dif- ferences between Elemen- tary and Jr. High life and become accepted, (tol- erated) by the rest of the student body.

Love ya, Faye Marie y £X5.0na[ { jn n _Jhouahti E.T came to visit Another year has come and gone bringing with it the changes that are an inevi- table part of life. The al- terations of this past year are many and varied. Some have taken us to further heights and brought great achievements while other not so successful changes have served to teach us not to make the same errors in the future. But, overall we'd like to think that things are looking up for the fu- ture. The country's economy is finally showing some signs of improvement. Dow Jones hit record-breaking heights and even the auto industry has posted profits. On the other hand, Michigan residents have been circu- lating petitions to recall our new democratic governor, Blanchard- he took a big bite out of our checks. K.H.S. seems to be caught somewhere in between the national and state levels of improvement and change. We are rebuilding gradually rather than at the rapid pace our nation seems to be setting. Yet, we are re- building one stone at a time. We got a new chemistry teacher, Mr. Rapson, during the year. Also, this is Mr. Cameron's last year as he is retiring. Dr, Laycock will be taking over the po- sition of superintendent next year. Many additional changes have orcured in the past year at every level. But as the levels fall together, they too take on the form of a pyramid and peak to a promising future. wjvg 1983 M a S H went home Feb. 28. Cyanide poisoning was found in Tylenol and in other products. NFL went on strike. Prince William was born. Israel attempted to des- troy the PLO in Beiruit. Clean-up is sweeping the nation. Americans want to get rid of chemical waste. Chrysler reported biggest profit margin even after long time slump. This winter was the mild- est ever in Michigan. Video games, home com- puters and cable TV are hot in the 80's. Princess Grace was killed in an automobile accident. The economy appears to be on the mend, A second space shuttle was launched. Varsity football had a winning season, going 5-4. The J.V. won a football game for the first time in 4 years when they defeated Deckerville 20-6. They went on to a very success- ful 5-3-1- season. Homecoming took on an ex- citing turn of events as K.H.S. defeated Peck 14-8, 105. Above: John looking as though he knows some- thing the cameraman doesn't.

HELP WANTED The Yearbook Staff is in need of two individuals to take the place of our departing seniors, Faye Gilmore and Julie Galubenski. The rewards are small, the hours long, and the tortures innumerable. Applicants must be dedicated, loyal, and willing to sacrifice everything to receive very little in return. Faye, as a freshman, stepped in and has now edited her fourth year- book. The responsibility, organi- zation, and initiative required to take her job may not be purchased, compromised, or easily found- but someone must try. Julie is hard working, capable of taking criticism, and as quality oriented as Faye. To take her job as co-editor, one must be bright, tough, and willing to sacrifice own personal interests and likes for the good of the yearbook- in addi- tion, to the endless set backs along the way. NO problem? Yes, the yearbook needs help next year and if you have the nec- essary qualities go after it- don't sit back and wait to criticize the efforts of others. Do something for the school and your classmates, and I guarantee there will be a reward for you,as well. You will be joining returning members: Rich Asher-an eight work hour a week producer with experi- ence in film development and layout completion. Mike Byers-a two year negative developer with a great deal of creative skill and artistic excel- lence . Lisa Kelly- a good writer with experience in layout and section development. And Monica Tait, who can creatively put into words the thoughts and feelings that many of us here at KHS only realize when we get a chance to read her writing. 4 _ 4 . % 45 V 110.
