It ' s What ' s Inside That Counts A closer look at the inside of LaSalle immediately showed how important the individual was to the functioning of our school. Many of the faculty members who had added their efforts had a special rapport with the student body. Coaches gave their time and emotion as they barked orders at the sweating players like drill sergeants. Teachers contributed by sponsoring clubs, participating in school activities, and giving us the support we needed. Time and talent came from the stu- dents as they assumed editorships, pre- sidencies, and membership roles. There were many areas of interest from Athlet- ics to Home Economics. Involvement at LHS was all a matter of people. Body work is one of the things Lisa Kaiser does in Auto Mechanics. A little locker room humor is displayed by: Huey — Ann Haber, Dewey — Ellen Herring, and Louie — Patty Creed. The most exciting classes can seem boring at times as Mary Rice and Mar- garet King know. BELOW: Lillie Chandler paints away her troubles. Friendships like Huey Madison and Lenny Batteast help the year go by.

Don ' t Sit On Their Hands You can ' t reach out and touch it nor can you hold onto it with your hands, but spirit was a feeling that almost every student at LaSalle experienced at one time or another during the year. Spirit surfaced all over involving the activities around the school. Pep band instilled a beat into the crowd that added to the excitement. The Booster Club ' s spirit could be seen throughout the year as they hung pos- ters in the gym and pool area. These banners urged our teams on to victory while at the same time telling our teams that we were behind them. The cheerleaders were perhaps the most visible example of spirit. Always ready with a cheer, they encouraged the teams on to victory. Students were the most numerous fans but there were plenty of adults in the stands, too. The prime example of adult spirit was Mr. Bradford, the man who yelled Go Lions! at almost every basketball game, rain or shine, since the opening of LaSalle. Parents were the main supporters of many of our athletic events — from swimming to volleyball. Spirit gathered a varied student body into a unified group, all support- ing LaSalle High School.
