BE UP AND DOING. WITH A HEART FOR ANY FATE; STILL ACHIEVING. STILL PURSUING. LEARN TO LABOR AND TO WAIT — Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Various Dimensions of LPHS Create Life for 1974 1974 was a flurry of activities and events inside and outside of LaPortc High School that comprised each individual's life as a student of LPHS The aspects, or dimensions, of this life involved not only the building of LPHS. but also, and more importantly, the people of LPHS. The continual dimensions of 1974 created the established ways of involvement that served as a foothold for the new and the experienced students alike, while new dimensions formed by novel organizations, classes, teams, and events expanded and amplified life in 1974. Regretfully, fading dimensions most apparent in the form of apathy diminished the vivacity and interests of many LPHS students. Before August 30.1973. a basic established dimension of LPHS. the building, stood empty, but on that day the students came and began the various dimensions of life in LPHS. Electives and required classes were attended; student elections were held; schedules were rearranged For English students, the library was a center of interest, while Math students concentrated on inequalities and functions. The experimental sciences opened new avenues of thought, while the industrial and liberal am combined practicality with creativencss. But the established dimensions went beyond the building and into outside activities. Teams were formed, and they supplied students with the thrill of competitive action. Organizations combined the common interests of students, and students were recognized for their abilities in several performances and on the climax of their education, graduation. The continual dimensions not only provided a framework for LPHS life, but also culminated the interests, curiosities and ideas of LPHS students. 5 New Interests Expand the Activities for Students Many new interests and ideas during 1974 developed into novel activities and organizations that, in turn, enriched the life style of LPHS students. These new adventures created another aspect of LPHS life, expanding dimensions. The changes which affected both students and teachers were evident in various concerns that ranged from the parking lot rearrangement to lowering the thermostats to 68 degrees. The most noticeable change in academics was the Phase Elective English Program that allowed students to choose their curriculum from a large variety of specialized courses. The Science Department added the rewarding Earth Science Class, while the Mathematics Department continued offering such recent courses as Statistics. For the first year. seniors were offered the delight of getting out before 2:55. The changes also spread into outside activities, such as the Smokers Anonymous pilot program, the first LPHS Variety Show. Purdue English for college-bound seniors, the First Annual Fowderpuff Football Game which pitted the sophomore and junior girls against the seniors, the first Powderpuff King, and the new LPHS hockey team. For most students. 1974 was a year of rapid change that resulted in many new dimensions for LPHS. 6 SPEED LIMIT OPEN YOUR EYES REALIZE YOU’RE NOT DEAD TAKE A LOOK AT AN OPEN BOOK DO WHAT YOU LIKE THATS WHAT I SAID DO WHAT YOU LIKE — Blind Faith WELL I HAVE SEEN THE TRUTH. YES I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT AND I’VE CHANGED MY WAYS. AND I’LL BE PREPARED WHEN YOU’RE LONELY AND SCARED AT THE END OF OUR DAYS. — Black Sabbath Involvement Defeats Apathy Along with the established and the new dimensions of LPHS, vanishing dimensions were also included in the life style of 1974. The causes of the ends of several aspects of LPHS originated in two distinctive attitudes The first, and more promising, was the replacement of outdated activities with more challenging and creative activities For instance, the highly structured English classes were replaced with the more informal and creative Phase Elective Program, and formerly all-male spons were challenged with the integration of both sexes. On the ocher hand, an apparently mote decadent anitude entitled Student Apathy has diminished many students’ interests and consequently threatened several organizations, classes, and events. Latin classes and Latin Gub have ended. The existence of the Junior-Senior banquet was still questionable The enrollment in many academic classes was at an unprecedented low. Also, post-game dances were neglected At junior and senior class meetings held on October 18, coocemed students realized that the delicate apathy situation could be interpreted as either a general lack of involvement (true apathy), or merely as discontent with the existing activities and events that were inviting only to the elite. With the hope that the second possibility was true, students suggested such replacements as a professional concert, a dance with computerized dates, or a battle of the bands However, if true apathy is the source of the present non-involvement, that apathy will not only affect the many activities offered at LPHS. but will also inevitably spread into the future society.

His tasks included planning the budget, coordinating the master schedule, determining curricular and extra-curricular activities, and attending to the many details that the average LPHS student was not aware of Once the year was in progress. Mr Hyde had to face his job one day at a time, as each day brought new and often unexpected challenges One of his main concerns was to work in support of and service to the department heads and all faculty so they can do their K bs to the best of their ability,” and he spent many hours conferring with these people. Of course Mr Hyde did not have to tackle the job of administration alone Next in line were Assistant Principals Bill Hannah and Ark Westphal who helped to plan the budget, the master schedule, and the periodic reports on the quality of education at LPHS Mr. Hannah and Mr Westphal also took responsibility for discipline at dances and assemblies. The job of administration is inherently a challenging one This was none the less true during the 1974 school year which brought its own particular set of challenges. The three members of the administration explored possibilities for additional building at LPHS and dealt with the problems of the energy crisis and negotiations between teachers and the School Corporation However, the long hours and hard work paid off as LPHS experienced an exciting and memorable year 13 STARTING RIGHT.

Hubner's involvement with LPHS athletics began in his high school days. He played varsity football and basketball for three years, ran track for two. and was the captain of the 1926 football squad He was known for his dependability, hard work, and consistency, all of which carried him through his career in sports. Hubner returned to LaPortc in 1943 after having coached at Knox High School for nine years Developing a fine athletic program at Knox, Hubner recreated the feat here in LaPortc Hubner's outstanding coaching accomplishment was in basketball. Under his guidance, the 1944 squad reached the state finals; his other round ball teams produced three sectional, one regional, one semi-state, and two NIC championships. His 1949 team was the last LaPorte squad to win a sectional championship. Hubner also coached football and baseball teams until becoming the first La Pone High School Athletic director in 194?. Hubner has done an outstanding ob of developing a «.ell-balanced sports program. He has directed many meets and relays in a number of sports, and his invitationals are highly praised around the state Mr. Hubner deponed from coaching «nth a show of dedication and accomplishment. So he leaves the post of athletic director. Hubner had been a tradition at LPHS since his playing days. The innumerable students that have come and gone truly appreciate the diligent efforts of Norman Hubner and wish him the best in retirement. IS STARTING RIGHT. CLOCKWISE Junior coumeloo.

To a senior of I.aFortc High. Mr. Smith and Mrs. Winebrcnncr were a constant source of information because graduation requirements had to be met and college plans completed. Miss Knight and Miss Cosand assisted the junior class in planning their third year of high school. Early in the school year. PSAT tests, in addition to other qualifying tests, were given to those interested in preparing for college. The advice of the counselors made the procedure of college selection less complex. For those not planning to attend college, counselors answered questions pertaining to their career after graduation Upon entering LPHS, sophomores were inexperienced with high school life. Questions about the new Phase Elective Program were frequently asked; credit requirements also left the underclassmen with many future decisions. Consequently. Mr. Horst and Mrs. Embree’s work proved to be a foundation for high school life. All students had an opportunity to become better acquainted with their counselors by having the same advisor throughout their high school career.

They also maintained order in both the counselor and principal's office and kept students' records up to date Necessary school supplies were purchased at the school bookstore which was operated by Mrs. Cioad Other school-oriented articles, such as activity tickets, game and bus tickets, and Slicer T-shirts and hats were also available. The library was another place of learning which sometimes supplemented the classroom. Because magazines, books, and other periodicals were available, the librarians proved to be helpful to both the students and tHt faculty. The aid of the school nurse, Mrs Rackham. was invaluable when minor medical assistance was needed. Students who wished to gain first hand knowledge concerning the field of medicine applied as a nurse’s assistant. Although each student's lunchtime was limited to thirty minutes, the cooks spent much longer planning and prepanng meals. Numerous hours were spent washing dishes and cleaning both the large and small cafeterias. Food preparation began hours before noon, and clean-up chores were completed long after the C lunch period. The responsibility of keeping the school building functional and dean was left to the custodians. Not only did this group assist the cafeteria workers in maintaining dean lunchrooms, but they kept both the inside and outside of LPHS neat and operative. The non- teaching staff diligently contributed to LPHS by- performing duties that were beneficial to LPHS students. n STARTING LEFT.

This year's board members included President Kenneth W School. Vice- President Joseph Tuholski, Secretary Paul Oaks, Dr. Seth S. Philbrook. Howard Ribordy, Vance N. Iselman. and Rosemary Hostetler. The board met on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at the Educational Services Center. The board had the unique responsibility of planning, evaluating, and policy-making for the entire corporation. A great deal of action was handled this year in varying areas. The board gave teachers a 4 salary increase to prevent a strike The energy crunch was sensed in the school system as students felt a slight chill with the thermostats set at 68° Summer school was not affected, but night classes were consolidated to help conserve • energy. Two major projects were being studied by the board and other committees. One was the investigation of a hot lunch program for six elementary schools located within the city limits. Last year, the board set forth the study of a field house to be located at the high school. The field house would increase space for Physical Education, Industrial Arts. Home Economics, along with other departments. This year was the sophomore year for Superintendent J Robert Miller and he. as well as the board, continued to provide the community with a well-run school system. 24 STARTING LEFT.

Literature, and Speech were followed with sophomores choosing two speech courses Juniors chose four courses in Comp, and Lit. to meet their requirements, while seniors were not required to participate in the program to graduate The program was divided into two divisions. The lower division, which was meant to develop fundamental skills, was for students in ninth and tenth grades The upper division, for juniors and seniors, permitted the selection of a wide variety of courses. Contrary to the former one-semester class structure, each class was nine weeks long and was rated in difficulty from phase 1 to phase 5. Although the program brought about an extra burden upon teachers in scheduling and in setting up classes, the students appreciated the efforts of Shannon Rcffctt, his staff, and the administration for their diligent work The overhauling of the English Department has opened a door to students who can now combine English fundamentals and their own individual interests. 77 English Develops a More Captivating Department The English Department added new dimensions to the program, aside from Phase Electives The department was busy all year introducing new teaching concepts and offering trips to further increase the knowledge of students. Separate from the regular Phase Elective programs, the Sophomore Composition- Literature classes gave sophomores a chance to prepare themselves for their junior and senior years of English. The classes were taught by the team of Mrs. Bums. Mrs. Shepard, and Mr Gierke, and offered students a study of world literature, coupled with composition, and the preparation of a short research paper. Students were given the opportunity to do various outside protects Many produced collages, while others showed their talents at rewriting stones into plays. For the first time, seniors were offered a chance to complete their freshman college English dunng first and second semesters. Being offered in conjunction with Purdue University, the courses were worth three hours of college credit. The classes, taught by Dr. Shannon Ref fett. met on Monday and Wednesday. The materials taught were comparably the same to that taught on campus. Once again this year, a trip was made to Stratford. Ontario, to attend the Stratford Shakespearean Festival. The group saw a production of PERICLES, as well as Molicre’s THE IMAGINARY INVAUD. Along with outside trips, the annual English Department fish fry was held on March 16th in the High School cafeteria. Innovating the Phase Elective Program, as well as offering every student the chance to become a better English student through many extra- curricular activities, made English a more interesting course of study 28 STARTING LEFT.

All of them were directed toward making foreign language smd - more interesting and more meaningful for the students. In order to do this, new textbooks were necessary. Both students and teachers were pleased with the quality of the new books Department Head Joe Van Mol felt that they contained material necessary to prepare students for college and overseas trips. Many different activities were used in the classroom to help students learn both the language and culture of a foreign country In German classes, students put on skits in which they demonstrated new ideas and introduced new words. Spanish classes held monthly cultural events in which they enjoyed Spanish food along with Spanish style entertainment or an educational program. French students tried their hand at French cuisine and prepared, among other things. LES ESCARGOTS (snails) and cheese fondue. New cassette tape recorders proved to be valuable additions to the Language Department These recorders replaced the facilities of the language lab which was converted back into a regular classroom. The recorders and capes in the various languages could be used by groups or individuals- They were very helpful to students in improving pronunciation and learning songs. Despite the loss of Latin from the curriculum, the trend in the Language Department was for the better Throughout the 1974 school year, the language Department continued to offer some of the most challenging and interesting courses in the LPHS curriculum. 33 STARTING ABOVE.

Intermediate students put their experience to practice by painting with acrylics. They also did figure studies of posed people and entwined materials, such as cords or threads, into macrame The advanced students did many creative, liberal projects One different and enjoyable project was silversmithing Another, done for the benefit of the school, was the an work and set for the Christmas assembly. Sculpturing with wood and other materials was done throughout the test of the year. Mr. Camel! and Mr Rhodes lielped the students to understand better the fundamentals of artwork, thus developing their liberalized talents. 35 36 Science Department Offers Wide Variety of Courses As usual, tlie LPHS Science Department had a busy year in 1974 Many and varied classes provided students with the opportunity to explore all aspects of the physical world, from the structure of an atom to the complexities of the human digestive system A new course. Earth Science, allowed students to study such topics as geology, weather, oceanography, and astronomy. late Science and Biology students learned about basic life functions and gained the fundamental knowledge necessary for further study Physiology classes went into greater detail as the students studied the structure and function of the human body. This course included such practical activities as dissecting sheep hearts, taking blood pressure, and doing urinalyses. Chemistry classes were expertly instructed by Mr. Fisher who was awarded the title of Outstanding Chemistry Teacher of the Saint Joseph Valley by the American Chemical Society. In Physics classes, principles of morion, energy, force and mass were learned and applied to practical problems Students interested in agriculture could gain valuable knowledge from Dale Peterson's courses in Animal Husbandry and Crop Production Science is a field which offers many career opportunities in our world of advancing technology Within this field, many arcalt are open for specialization — ecology, medicine, agriculture, and engineering, to name a few Through its variety of courses, the LPHS Science Department was able to introduce students to some of the many dimensions which make up this expanding field. 37 “A nd the A nswer Is. . .

Mathematics, though, is a fascinating world of numbers, equations and figures. It is also a background for other subjects, such as science, and the specialized K bs on today’s employment scene. Two years of Math arc required for graduation, and a wide variety of classes ate offered. Introductory Algebra, Geometry. Trigonometry. Advanced Algebra, College Algebra, Calculus, and Probability and Statistics all test the students skills in logic. 38 39 40 Social Studies Retains Active Role at LPHS The Social Studies Department was one of the largest and busiest departments because it included courses related to the study of man and his environment, courses basic to any humanities study. To name a few. Psychology classes studied man as an individual; Sociology classes explored man’s role in a society; Government students studied man as he rules himself; International Relations classes studied current international affairs; and History classes probed the past. The fourteen members of the Social Studies Department found that their schedules were busy throughout the year since many of them also acted as club sponsors and coaches. One of Mr Tamow’s responsibilities outside the classroom was the Cadet Teaching program. Like many other aspects of life at LPHS. the Social Studies Department looked toward change and expansion Because of student interest, a new Advanced Government class began second semester. Also a study of the needs of the entire school corporation in the way of Social Studies programs added to the already busy schedules of Depan men t Head Allen Brinklow and the other members of the department. In this study, the department looked toward expansion of facilities and change in curriculum as significant steps toward making Social Studies more interesting and meaningful to students in the future.

Alcoholism and drug abuse were also studied. Health prepared students both physically and mentally for the future. Gym. another course affecting the students’ future, shaped them physically and taught them proper body care. Students were kept active, participating in such sporjs as soccer, gymnastics, field hockey, golf, and archery. The teachers felt that students increasingly enjoyed gym and that the enthusiasm will continue to grow. Also, the gym assistants accepted more responsibility and were a great asset to the program Gym and Health courses proved to be not only two popular courses, but also fundamental for today's life. 43 STARTING RIGHT.

Home Ee students took this description to heart as they mastered five am of cooking and sewing As the school year progressed, students in Cooking courses had an opportunity to prepare a variety of different foods such as casseroles and jello salads. Also, with food nutrition, these students studied correct able settings and proper etiquette. Those in first year Sewing classes studied pattern selection and fabric care During their second year, sewing students experimented with tailoring suits and coats. Third year sewing students had the advantage of using class time for studying different aspects of sewing and afterward reported on their findings A new course. Costume Designing, was introduced this year and directed by Mrs. Howell Experienced sewers read the scripts, researched on the era of the plays, then designed and constructed the costumes. This course proved to be very helpful and economical to LPHS productions. Students could also take a semester of Home Management with a semester of Home Nursing. Home Economics students benefited not only the school, but also themselves 45 Industrial Arts Reflects Trend Toward Vocations The 1974 Industrial Arts Department expanded its depth in personnel and in classroom activities. Two new teachers, Mr. Leslie Ramsey in Power Mechanics and Printing and Mr Steven Hoyes in Printing, enlarged and added variety to the department Today’s trend of more vocational training has caused the Industrial Arts Department to expand, handling up to 1000 student hours per day. Along with the boys in Power classes, girls tried to become self-made mechanics as they tried to understand the functions of the gasoline engine. Students learned the differences between volts, watts, and ohms in Electricity class and learned how to add them correctly in Shop Math. The department has also adopted a system of incorporating different sections into one unit. For instance. Power Mechanics classes worked with Machine Shop for their common needs, and Mr Qindaniel's drafting students competed for a $50.00 prize, by drawing a set of plans for next year's Building Trades' home With their new advances, the Industrial Arts Department has not only become more inviting to students in vocational training, but also to those who welcomed a change of pace 47 y C Offer Headstart COE.

This year’s class had a large amount of students, 36, and was the first time that police cadets were working in the program. The students had many successful money- making projects this year, such as selling Christmas' pointsettias that gave customers a chance at winning a color television set. The set was won by Mrs Edward Burek of LaPorte. Under the guidance of Mr. Darrell Chapman, the ICT program has been a great success in beginning the adult life of many LPHS students. Directly across from Keslmg Junior High School, Joe Solmos and his crew constructed the Building Trade’s home for 1974. The seventeen students, including twelve seniors and five juniors, worked all year building a ranch-style home on the five lot site on Eighteenth Street. The profits from the sale of the house went to • future projects. Work was often tedious for the students, as they worked fifth and sixth hours to complete the house by year’s end But, after completing construction from the foundation to the roof, it was a job very well done. 31 STARTING LEFT.

Upon the arrival of basketball season, the LPHS Pep Band, composed of 19 members, aided the IVppcr Club and Pom Fon Girls as well as boosting school spirit Near the end of the first semester, the band was divided into two smaller groups. Mr. Robert Bunning was in charge of the V) member Concert Band composed mainly of sophomores, while the Symphonic Band, comprised of 57 members being mostly juniors and seniors, was headed by Mr Guy Foreman The Winter Concert was held December 5. 1973 and featured a trombone trio and flute trio in addition to such numbers as A Sentimental Christmas. Silver Sleigh. and Selections From GodspcII. The Jazz Band also performed four numbers at this concert. Both the Concert and Symphonic Bands performed at the Spring Concert held on April 25. 1974. Also, the Stage Band was acknowledged at a concert of their own As in past years. LPHS band students played various selections before, as well as during and after the Commencement Consequently, band students molded the music language, translating as they advanced their musical comprehension in 1974.

Mixed Chorus, Kantra Kays and A Cappclla — are smaller this year, the reason being conflict of schedules and senior release. A Cappclla contains only sixty members, the smallest in director Eddie Burk's teaching career at LPHS. Being smaller in number has sharpened their precision considerably. Mr. Burk noted. Both Kantra Kays and Mixed Qmxus have given performances, the latter for the first year, outside of class time and the regular concerts Concerts this year included the Winter Concert on January 10. and the Spring Concert on May 23. On January 26, approximately students represented I.PHS in the Piano, Vocal. String Ensemble District Contest in South Bend Forty- choir members advanced to the state finals held on February 16 in Indianapolis. The biggest event of the year was the 3-city music festival held on April 20, with LaPbctc as the host school this year. The format was changed in that only 100 singers were allowed to attend from each participating school Larry Boye from Ball Sate University was guest director for this event.

Whatever their reasons for participating, the members of the orchestra found that their rehearsals paid off as they performed before the student body, went to solo and ensemble contests, and gave a special performance at VanderCook College of Music in Chicago. The annual LPHS Orchestra Concert was held February 14. This performance featured the presentation of Senior Keys to six graduating members. Also at this concert, the National School Orchestra Association Award was presented to a senior of outstanding merit. The nominees were Christine Bell. Susan Cains, and Joanne Swcitier. Christine Bell, a violinist, was the winner. Many members of orchestra, as well as members of the band and choirs, were initiated into Tri-M. Modem Music Masters, an organization composed of the most talented musicians in these three groups. Officers foe 1974 were Barb Watson, president. Marge Ault, vice-president.

Being delivered to students every other Wednesday morning gave the staff a few additional days to improve their work and meet their Monday deadline. To change the format of the paper itself, numerous items were revamped Although the paper remained eight pages, the H1-T1MES increased its dimensions to nearly twice the size of the old publication. The content of the paper expanded to include a wider scope of activities. Community interests and national affairs were added when they interested the students of LPHS Some items that everyone enjoyed remained, like the Little Man on Campus” which brought a little laugh to first hour An IBM composer, which HI-TIMES typists learned to master in a short amount of time, was added to type final layout copy. With the fusion of the many added features and an enlarged, competent staff, the HI-T1MES has truly become a professional publication 61 Staffers Encounter Changing Dimensions Producing a yearbook includes a lot more than meets the eye. The summa months beforehand and the entire school year are devoted to creating an exciting summary of 1974. For the first time in the history of the El Pt. sophomores were included in the yearbook staff. Together with the upperclassmen, the new staffers worked diligently to achieve their goal of choosing a theme, developing the theme, and using this same theme throughout the entire book Besides writing copy and constructing layouts, the El Pe staff sold advertisements and posters that financed a large pan of the yearbook. As another change from past years, Mr John Shei sponsored the El Pe Tlx: entire staff feels that DIMENSIONS 1974 will prove to be a valuable memory in coming years 62 STARTING LEFT.

They served as leaders in many classes and organizations, setting good examples for the underclassmen who would soon be following in their footsteps. For the class officers of the year, the seniors chose Bruce Williams, president. Doug Tngg, vice-president; Barb Cramer, secretary; and Doug Wing, treasurer During 1974. they proved to be very successful leaders Some seniors received awards and scholarships, such as the DAR award, the Elks Scholarship, the Betty Crocker Homemaker Award, and various music awards. In order to become aware of communiry organizations, many jeniors participated in Boy and Girl Representatives Others learned of politics through Boy and Girl State Representatives. Other seniors had the opportunity of cadet teaching at elementary schools while some took advantage of on-the-job training in various fields Consequently, they learned new job skills and became aware of various dimensions in the adult world. One new idea introduced to the seniors was graduation in January. About one-fifth of the senior class took advantage of this. If the students had taken the required clxsses and had the necessary thirty-two credits, they were allowed to graduate early or be dismissed before 3:00 Through hard work and concentration, the seniors had. by the end of the year, paved the way for a better school and life 66 LOIS AB1NEY CAI ABNER MARY ABNER MARIANE ALB1N BRUCE ALLEN PATRICIA ALLEN ROBERT ALSIP OLE ANDERSON DEBRA ANDERSON BRENDA ANDRE JOYANTOS DONALD ARNDT RANDALL ARNDT VICKI ARNDT DOUGLAS ARNEY MARGARET AULT MARK BACKER DAVID BAILEY PAMELA BAILEY LINDA BAKER RENEE BALES SHERRY BARBER DEBBIE BARNEY RUTH BARTHOLOMEW SUSAN BAUER DAVID BAYS LINDA BEAMON CHRISTINE BECHIN5KI CHRISTINE BELL NIKKI BELLO DAVID BENJAMIN DIANE BENNER MICHAEL HER BY JULIE BERGLUND DONNA BERNACCHI TERESA BILGER DAVID BIRKHOLZ JAY RIXLER THEODORE BLAKE KATHY BOICE ERIC BOKLUND KAREN BORKOWSKI JANICE BOSSERMAN DOUG I AS BOWEN DOUGLAS BOWERS ROBERT BOYD LEON BOZEK KEVIN BRACKEN- 68 BRIAN BROWN CONAN BROWN LEE BRUCE SHARON BUCHANAN MARGARET BUNCE ARGYLL BUNTON EDWARD BUREK DEBORAH BURGESS Women' Ltb pronm a point ai the top ten «ruor are FRONT ROW.

Adding new dimensions to their class, the juniors chose Bob Bicmacchi. president; Ann Petrila vice-president; Claudia Fickle, secretary; and Mary Easting, treasurer These officers who fulfilled the role of leadership worked hard on making plans and decisions for future activities. The juniors took their place at LPHS. halfway between starting their years of high school and ending them. The tumor class undertook the planning of the prom and showed spirit by working on money- making projects, such as bake sales, dances, and a pancake breakfast. PSAT NMSQT and SAT tests concerned students planning on attending college. The addition of Phase Electives promoted interest in English classes. Although juniors kept involved with homework, term papers, and tests, they still contributed spirit by participating in all kinds of extracurricular activities. Many juniors were active in various clubs, some taking positions of officers. Variety shows, musicals, and dramatic plays attracted a number of juniors who displayed their talents in the school productions. Boosting the morale of their teams, they cheered the Sheers on at pep sessions and games However, not all juniors were in the stands since many mere enthusiastic players on teams. Even junior girls were able to get into sports action in intramural basketball, varsity and reserve volleyball, and the Powder Puff Football Game Going beyond the classrooms to reach for something bigger and better, juniors continuously expanded dimensions of the class with new ideas and activities Yet the juniors kept the same traditional dimensions of the school by taking their place as middlemen. By linking together the beginning sophomores and the graduating seniors, the junior class truly served as the backbone of LPHS. 94 Harvey Adimt Hhtllu Adkmi Sally Af«o tiu Ronnie Akin Liur Allan Bill Allen Liun Alien Rindell Alien Rrter Alletcc Lindi Amber Roy Amo Ken Arnold Cindy Biaioeino Donru Bilker Kmh Biker Bill Bunbai Lon Bubknechr Lnlie Barden El in bet h Birger Daryl Bayer Tim Bean Mitt Beany Mary Becker Michad Beoer IVnny Bell June Belrowaki Sintra Bergima Dive Berrucchi John Beyer Bob Btemacki Becky Bilderback Joe Bird Barb Buhof Joy BixJer Steve Boner Sue Bovd Miry Brmii Bob Bnitol Don Bolton Don Brooki Gail Brorvn Kevin Brown Albert Bryan landi Bex kiand Bill Buckmin Rhonda Bunch Dcbei Butter Sue Burkett 95 Alton Buah fV«yC kt Lynctte Callahan Alin Campbell Sandra Campbell Cathy Carpenter Kerry Carper BarbCarque Ruiteil Canon Cynthti Carter Jeff Carter Renru Caaper Steve Cavanaugh Carmen Cepeda Denma Chaltlc Ion Chalman Cynthia Charaben Paul Quldreu Steve Cbolewi Marie Clark Mike Clawvon Chn Oero John Clough Debbie Colburn Dave Collin Lauretta Colston Cindy Comalin Kerry Connelly Pame Cooley Larry Cortelyou Brian Cox Sutan Crone Ron Crum Tom Camming Alan Danielaon Dan Danlavuh 96 Beverly Dambrough Lormnc Dtarij Gndr Day Duna Day Rodney Day Kevin Dean Debbie Deluter Paul DePoy Pauline Dettroer Cindy Dr er Jim DcWilt Julie Dexter Debbie Diet Suxan DobuewK Suxan Daig Pat Dolan Jim Dolaway Jennifer Domi Sonya DonaJdxon Ktm Dorman Diane Dorxett Robin Droegc Rithard Dudiak Pac Duffy Mark Dunfee Dale Dunham Cary Ointfon Jeff Dunifon Oieryl Dunlap Jennifer Dunlap 97 Quit Dydo Lonn Edgeconb Bill Hkint Debbie Kbbiccuk Mike Fmcnch So van Entkton Toro Erne Loci Eultnjt Miry Ruling Bonnie Euler Steve Ewan Beth Farkrlman Sheryl Feddeler Ralph Fakei Mama Feiuel Pam Frmkr Barb Fenttrrmakcr Debbie Ferjtvivjei Edna Ferjtuvm Karen Ferjtuvm Claudia Fkkel Luke Finley Dale Fitther Jane Either Jody Fither Pat Flemming Bob Flitter Jon Fogle Steve Fontanna David Fotrer Gail Frater Mania Fernet Karen Friend Karen Futeo Cecilia GabeUa Rex) Gagic STARTING RIGHT.

How can I possibly get from my Math class to my locker and all the way over to the gym in just five minutes? It’s just impossible!” represented a common complaint uttered by many sophomores. However, as they discovered in merely a few short days, life at LPHS was not unbearably complicated. This year has been crowded with many exciting and interesting events from the first week of school, right until the very last. Merely a few of the many additions that gave the sophomores a chance to participate at LPHS were the girls volleyball team, the first annual Variety Show, the Powder Puff Football Game, and the expanded Spirit Week. The sophomores’ interests were aroused by the many established aspects of LPHS. including the large number of organizations, such as the language clubs. Ski Club, Girl Reserves, Boys Service Qub, An Qub. Health Careers. Library Qub, and Chess Qub. For the sophomores. Homecoming was special in 1974, marking the first time they could actually participate in the annual event Participation ranged from constructing floats to riding or walking the length of Lincolnway in the parade. Since LPHS played the St. Joe Indians. Homecoming was appropriately entitled, Tear Down Their Teepees. The officers the sophomores elected to represent them were Paul Kaminski, president; Leah Lcmberis. vice-president; and Teresa Koneizncy. secretary-treasurer. They did an excellent job representing their class as the sophomores had two dances and a car wash. Far before the year ended, sophomores were confidently, into the swim of things at LPHS since they had lost their self consciousness through enjoyable participation in LPHS life LAPDRTE IIIGH SCHOOL 108 David Adams Sharon Adkins Edward Ail min Sherman Aiun Muk Albin Guy Alien Jdl Amor Connie Angelo David Arrvrfi Pamela Amen Chen Aihcnfi Dive Avery Ruthie Ayer Bonnie Bailey Brian Baker fVjOty Baker Dawn Banks Sue Bannwan Scon Hippie Dolph Baran Jell Him.in) David Bamharr Tim Bam Mari Baughman Bob Baughman Brian Beaior Carol Beanie Dwight Bear Julie Beirker John Beehler Rudd Bell Scon Bell Mete Benefici Bob Bemacctu Jelf Bemarchi Julie Bemarchi Sue Bemaertu Pa: Beaiegsco Dawn Blake Ondy Blank Jim Boatwright Paul Bodie Teresa Boklund Bruce Borawvlu Vera Borkowslo Cindy Ben in Chn Bradley Eve Brantley 109 Mickey Hrmhei Bob Brnxli Wayne Brewer Frank Browder Pit Brown Tom Brown Willard Brown Carol Baxe Mam Bruth Phillip Buchner Vada Bunron David Burke Darwin Burnt Jack Budietd Christine Bush Norma Buth Virginia Cains Frank Caler Eluaberh Callahan Vxki Campbell Carolyn Canfield Mike Cannon Jody Camwel!

At half-time with the score St. Joe Indians — 7, LaPbrte Sliccrs — 6, excited students milled in the stands, wailing for the announcement of the Homecoming Queen and her court This spell of anticipation was not broken until Barb Cramer received a bouquet of roses from John Russ, the Student Council president. Although the Sliccrs were dealt a 14-6 loss, the student enthusiasm perpetuated memories of 1975. 155 156 STARTING RIGHT.

ONCE UPON A MATTRESS On November 15th. 16th and 17th, the LaPbrtc High School Players presented this hilarious comedy to near sell-out crowds. The audience proved its enthusiasm by giving the play standing ovations all three nights. The success of the play was the effect of the excellent direction of Mr. James Lamp], student direction of Beth Snyder, and choral direction of Mr Eddie Burk. The pans were expertly cast, and all musical numbers were worked to perfection. Lura of Lura's School of Dance arranged the choreography which was excellently executed by dancers Mary Lemberis, Gerry Roth, Laura Eastman. Tim Locke, Julie Bcrglund. Paul DePoy, Kitty Murray and Jeff Jones. Leah Lembens and Jeff Jones performed the opening pantomime number The costume committee worked endless hours on the very professional looking costumes. The make-up committee also added to the proficiency of the production Many people compared this version to the professional p roduction. “Arsenic and Old Lace” Recaptures Days Gone by Two performances of “Arsenic and Old Lace credited hours of rehearsing and hard work for those involved in the play Both the Thursday, January 24th and the Saturday, January 26th performances were well received and awarded with appreciative audiences. Arsenic and Old Lace” which took a humorous look at the effects of wine poisoning appealed to the young and old alike. The production was directed by Ms. Angie Mitchell, who was aided by the student director Ellic Heidel. Set construction and property crews painstakingly created the appropriate scenery of the Brewster home in Brooklyn, while costume committees strived to reproduce post-World War II fashions. Those concerned with make up complimented the work of the costume committee. Others kept the play running smoothly by performing backstage operations. Assistant director, Ms. Sue Eggleston, further perfected the production by advising on acting techniques. The result of the combined efforts of those involved in Arsenic and Old Lace was a rewarding experience in an excellent production.

Dark at the Top of the Stairs. The play centered around the universal problems and fears of stereotyped characters ranging from a ten-year-old to a married couple Directed by Mr. Munson, the cast of nine had only one month to memorize lines and prepare for the two performances on March 21 and 22 The Home Ec department made all costumes. Also behind the scenes the stage crew worked on lighting, sound, props, and curtains. The makeup committee aided in making the appearance of the characters more realistic, and still more students became involved with ticket and program production and ushering. As a first for LPHS. Stage Tech created a new set consisting of unsupported, suspended props. 162 STARTING LEFT. CLOCKWISE Com defend henclf in another quarrel with Rubin Sammy chat with Uxtie while he wait for hi date.

Each play performed was the combined effort of various crews and several dedicated people The responsibility of the costume committee. Mrs How-ell’s Costume Design class, was to create appropriate costumes which coincided with the production. This committee located, sewed, and, at times, actually designed costumes required to be as authentic as possible. Members of the costume committee often found garage sales and thrift shops to be sources of useful materials The properties crew was concerned with providing all props and minor decorations that were not a permanent part of the set. Their knowledge of the play had to be outstanding to realistically identify the character with the prop, and the search for authentic-looking props wasn't always easy. A few nights before the play was presented, members of the make-up crew- practiced their duties by applying make-up to performers. Special aspects such as aging techniques had to be learned and applied The make-up committee needed to arrive early for preparation and stay later until clean-up tasks were completed The publicity and program committees were responsible for sufficiently advertising the production The publicity committee wrote P A. announcements and distributed posters throughout the city This group also took care of photography and radio matters. The program committee finished the work of the publicity members by compiling a different program format for each show. Present at each night of the performance was the Usher Corp. a group of volunteers who assisted in seating the audience in addition to collecting tickets and distributing programs 165 Decorations Add Beautiful Dimensions to “ Winter in Central Park” Between 900 p m and 1200 a.m. on December 1.1973, approximately 230 couples drifted into the lovely decorated hall of LPHS. As they entered the doors, they found the whole school looked like a winter sidewalk scene from Fifth Avenue. The theme, Winter in Central Park, was displayed in the decorations created by committees appointed by the Girl Reserves cabinet members. A small, wooden bridge lay just inside the entrance, and enlarged paper snowflakes dotted the windows Across the walls, murals of trees and park benches decorated the halls. The small cafeteria, where refreshments were served, was decorated like a sidewalk cafe'. The large cafeteria contained the dance floor and band for the evening, CITY LIMITS. At 10;30 p.m. Miss G. R and ha court were announced. Gem Rudolph (senior) was crowned queen, while Laura Alban (junior) and Gina Johnson (sophomore) composed her court Afterwards, the Elks held a buffet style dinner for couples attending the dance As everyone drifted home, Winter in Central Park, was left quietly behind enclosed in the walls of LPHS. 166 STARTING LEFT.

The two sponsors. Mr. Hayes and Mr. Camel 1. were given gift certificates. On May 24. with very few days left in the school year, students and teachers enjoyed the relief of Senior Field Day. The students paid a dollar for tickets for the contests which were held during fifth and sixth hours. The contests included catching a greased pig, racing in a gunny sack, and drinking root beer chug-a-lug style. From the Field Day the senior class made over seven hundred dollars which was used to buy a gift for the school. Since these events of the year were huge successes, the diligent efforts put forth were greatly appreciated and recognized as outstanding projects by the seniors who were soon to depart LPHS. 169 Many dedicated juniors engaged in time- consuming preparation and much prayer with the hope of creating a very successful prom. After the initial organization by committee members, countless hours were spent in basements and garages perfecting murals, aquariums, and other suitable decorations. Their efforts, however, were not put into focus until the paraphenalia was brought to the Civic Auditorium. At the Gvic. blue-green crepe paper was suspended from the ceiling, murals were hung, and a ship was constructed on the stage.

Two larger-than-life aquariums lined the entrance while Neptune, sea chests, a ship, and a crystal ball formed the basic components located in the dancing area Other highlights included fish murals, an octopus, treasure chest, and crepe paper whales which were found in the basement of the Gvic. At 10:30 p.m., junior class president Rob Biemachi presented gifts to Mr Keith Piper and Mr. Lowell Barker, junior class sponsors. He then announced Judy Steen as Prom Queen and awarded her with the traditional rhinestone tiara and roses so that she could preside over the rest of the evening's festivities.

Berkley of Indiana University, who also spoke at the Commencement exercises for the LPHS class of 1969 Dr. Berkley advised the graduates not to take yourselves too seriously and have a little fun. He emphasized the need to focus not only on now but on the future as well. and stated that Commencement is not a journey's end. it is only a shelter for the night.

After the loss, the roundballcrs bounced back to three more wins, and the fans anticipated the arrival of the meaty pan of the schedule and the NIC battle. The dramatic winning pace the Slicers were running up then dropped off to an average season. La Porte put it together for the Sectional, and the 1974 tourney appeared to be the year to change LaPorte’s sectional tradition. After running away with the New Prairie game and holding off a new New Prairie squad. Slicer fans enthusiastically awaited the title game against, as always, M.C Elston. The Slicers played the first three quarters up to potential and kept pace with the Red Devils even though Chip Jones was on the bench with a broken wrist suffered in a fall against New Prairie. Leading Elston at the end of the third quarter, the Slicers came out ready to attack the traditionally jinxed fourth quarter, but '74 was not the year to be. The year as a whole was satisfying, and as always spirits were high, but the fans saw the hope for a sectional championship roll off the rim. The roundballcrs compiled the most wins in LaPorte basketball history, a 14-« record, and finished fourth in the NIC Tim Hostetler was voted the Kesling Scholarship by the season ticket holders. Tim also received the Kaminski Free Throw Award Larry Lubs was first runner- up for the Kesling Scholarship, Dave Bailey was the second runner-up, and Chip Jones was third runner-up.
