Most of us weren't joyful at the thought of returning to school, but once we were back, it wasn't so bad. The Senior class considered themselves to be the Top Guns of the school. Juniors hoped that the year would soon be Gone With The Wind so they could be the leaders of the school. The Sophomores had a Long Way to Go and the Freshmen thought that entering high school was equivalent to Pee Wee's Big Adventure. This year was filled with many events and changes, but the students kept up with it all and had an experience that no one will forget. 1. Jenny Mrozinski, Carrie Levenhagcn, and Liz Moore arc happy to be back in school. They are looking forward to future homework assignments and test . 2. Lori Jessup reminisces the enjoyable summer she 3 had with her friends. 3. Lane Friedman and Carrie James catch up on the summer gossip. Introduction 1. Carl Hogsett Jell Buday. Casey Basch.

Despite some cancellations of some of our more tradi- tional homecoming activities, there were still many things to do to keep us busy. Monday was Dress-Up Day. Students roamed the hallways decked out in the nicest clothes they could find in their closets. Tuesday was Fifties Day. Guys with greasy hair and girls with poodle skirts were a com- mon and hilarious sight. Wednesday was Bum Day. People wore the grungiest rags that most mothers thought they'd thrown away. Thursday was Toga Day. Students adorned themselves with every kind of sheet imaginable. Flannel, Snoopy, designer, and satin sheets were seen along with plain, white sheets. Friday was the ever-traditional Orange and Black Day. These days for dressing differently were en- joyed by all and heightened Slicer Spirit. 1. Members of the Football team strut to the center of the gym to be introduced during the Homecoming pep session. 2. Don Kopach feels out of place because he doesn't have a toga. 3. Scott Stiller winces as he catches a water balloon successfully. Homecoming 1. Janine Tonsoni models the 50's look while Mary Scmitz chooses a more casual style. 2. With a little imagination.

There Is nothing more embarrassing than falling flat on one's face during the class games!! Homecoming 005 Slicers Turn School Into An The 1986 Spirit Week had its bright moments, but in some ways it was a disappointment as well. The weather was a con- stant problem, but the Slicers made the best of the situation by continuing the week with the same rowdy spirit that LaPorte is known to display. The powderpuff football game was cancelled because there was no place to play. However, the class games were as popular as ever. Cartwheel races and the Lifesaver games were just a few of the events that took place. Homecoming Friday was a par- ticularly memorable one for the entire school because there was a special Homecoming pep session during school. Teachers and students performed skits and aroused the spirit of the student body. The weather looked promising until the afternoon. Severe thunderstorms caused the cancellations of the bonfire and the car caravan. However, someone up above was listening to our prayers because the weather cleared up in time for the game. 1. Mike Pah ' mother would be upset if she knew he was wear- ing those rags to school 2. A group of senior girls sit around waiting for the next event to take place. 3. Doug Beck, Jeff Sutherlin, Greg Cooper, and Dawnan Sharrow perform a skit to raise the spirit level during the pep session. 006 Homecoming Animal House 1. Tammy Gourley is eager lo go home and change her clothes. 2. Blaine Kramer seems to have gotten the easy job in the wheel barrow race. 3. Matt Kemp. Brent Kiff, Jeff Soetje, and Amy Kemp ignore the threats of more rain and decorate their car anyway. 4. janine Tonsoni. Kelly Petrosky, Tracy Todd, and Janine DeHart prove that togas needn’t be white. 7 This year's theme for Homecoming was Harvest The Indians and en- thusiastic Slicers decorated accordingly during the Thursday evening decorating contest. Each class was given a designated part of the school and had until 10:30 P.M. to decorate it. Paper, posterboard, markers, paints, balloons, streamers, and a lot of organization and patience turned the school into a place that any Indian would fear to enter. Hcirves+ The Indians 1. Stacy Murray, Michelle Zabel, Mar- na Gerometla, Tami Woodham, and Chrii Ahern are almost finished with their posters. 2. This threatening sign is the artwork of Senior Patti Nossen. 3.

Decorating 009 This Was The Night For Tammy Paxson On Ihe night of September 26, 1986, the Homecoming Queen was announced during the half-time festivities. Of the eighteen candidates, Tammy Paxson was chosen to represent LPHS as the queen. The first runner-up was Melinda Mc- Combs and the second runner-up was Kelle Mullins. Other candidates included Amy Broviak, Bethany Cornelison, Lori Jessup, Karen Hand, Karen Lewis, Jill Peters, Linda Laufmann, Pam Tagliaferi, Miriam Vasilarakos, Nikki Vapensky, Stephanie Sanchez, Lisa Casper, Patti Nossen, and Dana Schmednecht. 1.

Banzai experience Homecoming Victory The LPHS Homecoming game with South Bend St. Joseph was a muddy one to say the least. Despite the sloppy conditions, LaPorte won the hard-fought battle by a score of 13-12. The Slicers scored all of their points in the first half and held on to win. 1.

Has anyone ever stopped to think how life would be if the United States did not have a president, or the Roman Catholic Church did not have a pope, or if the Civil Rights Movement had not had Martin Luther King, Jr.? The situation would be like a team of players that had the qualities of sure cnamps, without Bobby Knight guiding and leading it to victory the team would probably face defeat. Any group needs a leader to organize and maintain order within it. Sometimes the Administration is the go-between and sometimes they are the enforcer holding to its traditions. The Administrator's job is to see that all facets of the organization are running smoothly without becoming stagnated. Dr. C. Steven Snider Superintendent of Schools Dwight D. Tallman Asst.

Everyone jumps up and makes a mad dash for the door. The sound of crashing desks fills the room, then it's finally over. Back in the deserted classroom sits one poor soul with a headache that has Excedrin written all over it. It is the teacher that has had to put up with a whole day of unfinished homework, students bickering, and childish pranks. The teacher is only human yet day after day the teacher puts up with the same thing. And I ask you, isn't this a bit much to expect of anybody? Bob Hickman ART CLASSES AVOID MAKING A Surprisingly, not all art students possess more artistic talent than the average person on the street. What most art students do have is a desire to test the bounds of their creativity. Students at LPHS wishing to take a course in art have many creative areas from which they may choose. The classes are divided into levels of training so that the potential beginner need not worry about being out of his depth. All talent aside, everyone FINE MESS starts off equal. In addition to the traditional activities such as painting and sculpting, the department offers classes in Commercial Design and Mr. Rhodes teaches Stage Technology (an invaluable aid to drama at LPHS). So, for everyone from potential Picassos to Joe Average doodlers who is willing to work and have fun while doing it, the Art Department at LPHS is the place to be. 1. Kim Masterson briefly pauses from her painting to smile for the camera. 2. Mrs. Long shows Tracey Mahlman how it's really done. 3. Laura Hunt busily works on a school spirit booster. 4. Rob Milzarek can't be bothered while sketching in Art class.

Classes such as Independent Living, Per- sonal Finance, and Relation- ships, Marriage and Family are geared toward modern lifestyles. Of course Foods and Clothing are still available. Such classes are especially valuable in a society teeming with fast- food restaurants which preface almost every food with Me or Big. The Home Ec Department at LPHS proves that some peo- ple are still interested in learning about homelife. For these people and for other interested parties. Home Ec at LaPorte serves up age-old practices with modern twists — very effective. |o Dein Yum Hon � E . Suunne Howell Kina I'hrglry Horn Ec. Home Ec. ▲ 3 ▲ 4 1.

Amazingly, all of the I.PHS English teachers an? very im- aginative people. Their students are allowed to take some creative liberties while at the same time having some imponant conventions enforced upon them. For example. Mrs. Ellison allowed her Junior Honors English classes to celebrate the birthdays of great American authors though each activity dunng that hour had to have some bearing on the author's works. The end result was an entertaining time which stimulated a new appreciation for some forgotten writers. The English courses at LPHS are also attractive to potential English ma- jors. Our English Department has a literary magazine, a newspaper, and a yearbook for future journalists. Honors English courses abound as well. Speech, Drama classes and Radio-Television work tempt many too. Thanks to an enlightened faculty who offer a variety of courses, the English Department of LPHS is and will probably remain a center of activity at our school.

The Business classes at LPHS are aimed at develop- ing marketable skills for the future. Gone is the day of Gutenberg's movable type and the Chinese abacus. Now we have electric typewriters and calculators as well as word processors and computers. Business courses too have changed. They now include self- development programs such as 'T Can. Business classes still hold the promise of future wealth, but they also help students learn to be confident with their capabilities. ▲ 7 Kustness 25 STUDENTS ADD FROM NINE TO FIVE' Jamea Prteraon Beth Aleiander Steve Orabyn Jam Jooat Dee Kalb Patricia Kermin Robert Moeinaki Math Hrad Mathematica Mathematica Mathematica Meth Selcoce Mathematice Mathematice Science AlX BB Coach Academic ( omprtillon Photo Club Sf Ami.

Since not all students enjoy math as much they perhaps should, LPHS math teachers try to make their classes both fun and interesting. Their tactics vary from simple iokes to math earnes (yes, they can be fun) to unusual class projects like the measure- ment of lightpoles. These efforts are truly appreciated by math students. Other stimulating events are national and state tests given to all willing student participants. Pro- grams such as these tests are giving math a facelift in the eyes of the nation.

Recently, however, this stigma has been removed and many students now realize how much fun In- dustrial Arts can be. This department of LPHS has a wide variety of courses in its curriculum ranging from graphics to actual construction. Dif- ferent levels of classes are also available for more advanced students. This type of program is very useful for the future since many students can ob- tain practical job experience from their In- dustrial Arts classes. One of the most exciting classes in this department is that of Building Trades. Participants in this course actually build a house by themselves. The Industrial Arts Department of LPHS is certainly no Little Shop of Horrors as more and more students are find- ing out. 4 V 5V 1. Frank Aul� seem «hocked to be photo- graphed. 2.

Ed Adull Education Student Council Syoiuor ▲ 3 If people are supposed to learn from the past, then LPHS students should be well equipped for the future. Classes in history are some of students' favorite social studies subjects. Psychology is also very popular especially due to the strange projects sometimes assigned by teachers. One course not usually associated with the Social Studies Depart- ment is that of Cadet Teaching. This class involves two periods during which participants in the pro- gram are sent to elementary schools at which they actually help teach. This provides excellent ex- perience for the future professors of America as well as for future parents. All in all, the Social Studies Department is a great place to be whether or not you are a history enthusiast. Ai A7 ▲ 8 Social Science 31 FOREIGN LANGUAGES — THE TALK OF THE TOWN!

Understanding these simple questions can mean a great deal in certain situations. Be- ing bilingual can expose students to new cultures as well as new people, thereby widening their horizons con- siderably. The Foreign Language Department at l.PHS tries to involve its students in the cultures of countries in and even outside the traditional French, German, and Spanish speaking worlds. Foreign language clubs help to do this as do normal exchange programs such as NACEL and the IU Honors Program. An even newer course being offered to further educate LPHS students in the ways of the non-English speaking world is The Language Ex- ploration class, which allows students to learn Russian, Chinese, and Japanese. Thus, the Foreign Language Department at LPHS is broadening its outlook right along with its students. A 4 1.

As of next year many new and exciting courses will be of- fered as a part of the science cur- riculum. These fresh courses in- clude Horticulture, Geology and Astronomy. In addition, different levels of each course will be prepared. This will allow each student to choose the level that he feels will best suit his needs and skills. Thus, a whole new realm of scientific study is being opened up to interested freshmen and seniors alike. No doubt there will be many students clamoring to take these modern classes. 4 ▲ 1.

There are no less than seven choirs and five types of bands. Each class is designed to con- tain musicians and singers of similar status so this department too is broken up into different levels. The students in our music classes are the ones who entertain our entire school throughout the year. However, their work and effort are often ignored. What would a home football or basketball game be like without a Pep or Marching Band there to play for us? What would a year be like without a special Swing Choir performance? Imagine each situation.

Advanced classes in swimming and in games are in the curriculum as is a course on actual physical fitness. The entire purpose of the depart- ment is to keep students in shape by involving them in athletics. If one keeps the right attitude about it all, keeping healthy and fit has probably never been more fun. A 4 38 Physical Education A7 1.

Every morn- ing before school there is a mad scramble to find a place in the packed facility. Students and teachers (especially coaches) enjoy using the library as a social center, a place where they can gossip and discuss current events. Of course, the real purpose of the library is very clear even in the early morning rush as people continuously flow in and out returning and checking out magazines and books. Recently Dial-A-Teacher was begun in the library during the evenings to help with homework. Thanks to this program our library has an even further reach. With its great fund of literature, microfiche, com- puters, video cassettes, typewriters, and helpful librarians, our media center has become an asset not only to our school but also to our community. STUDENTS STRIVE FOR PERSONAL BEST' The Moderately Mentally Handicapped (MOMH) special education class is participating in a state wide project referred to as LRE, Least Restrictive Environment. The emphasis of the program is a functional-based curriculum, which focuses on training the students in skills necessary to work, recreate and live as contributing members of the community. As a part of the new curriculum the students are working in a variety of training jobs both inside the school and in the community. 1.

In October, the members traveled to Portage to see Moliere's A Doctor in Spite of Himself. Through selling Gifts and Things the members could use account money earned through sales to pay for any activities. The club also has annual trips to Six Rags Great America and to La Rue St. Clair in Chicago for Brunch. Just because the school year has ended doesn't mean the activities do. During the sum- mer, in cooperation with the Spanish and Ger- man clubs a flower garden is arranged and kept up.

Some members sell Slicer pins and candy, while others work in the concession stands at football and basketball games. Some of this money was used this fall when the club visited a Spanish theater. In the spring the Spanish Club is scheduled for another trip to Chicago. This time they will go to Great America. For the holidays a Christmas fiesta at the Hacienda was planned. The year was then capped off with a Jira, or picnic. In addition to all of this, Spanish Club offers scholarships to seniors who will be studying Spanish in college.

I — ” Industrial Cooperative Training is an organized class which trains students for |obs in industry. Training begins in the classroom with the completion of forms which seems to be ultra-important in any job. Students learn working rules of etiquette, and once prepared they are placed in Ribs within the community. The range of joo offerings is quite varied. Amanda Baumer works for the LaPorte Emergency Medical Service. Mark Swan works for Telerlyne Casting. William Macher does outside work tor Small's Landscaping and Elaine Yuhasz is preparing to be a dental hygienist by working for Dr. f ndh. In order for this class to remain organized it must be supported by community businesses. L.P.H.S. is fortunate to have this community support so that its graduates can get hands-on” experience before being forced to make career choices. ICT Ml MBIKS Raw I Scott ScraoMd. UiWU laulmum.

COE Commercial Office Experience Class is open only to those students who have already proved their skills by successfully completing the beginning business and advanced training Business classes. If a student is interested in a clerical Job career, she may opt to apply for a position in various LaPorte community businesses where she can put her business skills to good work. If she is successful with her COE training position, the firm for which she works often offers her a permanent position once she has graduated from high school. Some businesses which offer openings to these students are Whirlpool Corporation, laPorte Bank and Trust Co., Sauer Buick-Pontiac, Inc., State Farm Insurance, and Kingsley Furniture Co., as well as many others. Again, the sponsoring companies are varied in nature of business and their support allows the continuance of the organized class. Kristina Moenig works for the L.P.H.S. Industrial Ed. Dept. ICT COE 47 Student Council Adjusts to 'Modern Times' Student Council members were especially active this year. Most of the officers and representatives served on one or more of Dr. Wayne's task forces which discussed and made recommenda- tions pertaining to problems and challenges at LPHS. In review, have been such areas as the attendance policy, park- ing, and the extremely over-crowded building.

While other clubs merely require the pay- ment of dues, G.R. initiates its girls in grand style. Would-be G.R. members must wear an outfit chosen by the G.R. cabinet. Articles of clothing this year ranged from grocery bags to col- ored pantyhose. The trial is still not over. In order to go to the G.R. for- mal on January 31, girls have to earn points by attending meetings and selling everything from tickets to keychains. Although this may seem a bit extreme, it all does pay off in the end. This year the theme of the dance is Til the Clock Strikes Twelve. Despite some opinions, G.R. is not, however, simply a dance club. G.R. is also involved in com- munity service projects such as The Cancer Society Bike-a-thon. Most of all, of course, G.R. is a club for fun. 1. Leigh Hazard comforts Mandy Hanahan who is feeling a little silly. 2. G.R. CABINET: Row 1: Karen Lewis — President.

Speeches must be carefully prepared before the competition. Not only must debaters argue one side of an issue, but they sometimes do both affirmative and negative in the same meet. Thus, tne amount of time they spend on research in the library can certainly be appreciated.

The quantity of members sent is determined by the population of the student body of every Indiana school. Our country's political and military foundation is the basis of learning by everyone who at- tends Boys' and Girls' State. Miniature towns are formed with state and countv governments. To aid in an understand- ing of the political process, boy and girl staters hold elections. Everyone tries for an office. Campaigns reach a feverish momentum about 2:00 a.m. early on the day of the election. Boy staters utilize military practice by marching in forma- tion for the entire week. Lasting friend- ships are made. It is always a surprise for someone who has been to Boys' or Girls' State to go to college one year later and see someone who was a stater friend the previous year. BOYS’ STATE: Bob Burger, Ray Caddy, Fritz War- field. GIRLS' STATE: Julie Briggs, Pam Taghaferi. Larissa Riley. ACADEMIC DECATHLON TEAM THINKS WITH A DELICATE BALANCE' Throw together any group of students with motivation and in- telligence; stir in two eager coaches, Gini and Dave Cooper; gently add interesting subject; mix all ingredients, and you have LaPorte's successful award winn- ing Academic Decathlon Team. The team consists of Bob Burger, Ray Caddy, Alternate — Claudia Mueller, Jeff Walker, Chris Wayne; and Randy Cook and Carolyn Heuck who are not pic- tured.

Ray Caddy is appalled at the injustice of American Politics. 2. 3. Jeff Walker turns a shy eye toward the camera. 4. As the bell rings, Kelle Mullins realizes she's late for class.

Seniors Leave Their Legacy As we, the Senior class of '87, frantically finish our year by finalizing college plans, mailing graduation notices, and writing the infamous Senior term paper, we also take time to reflect on our own accomplishments. One never forgets the friendships gained, the camaraderie at football and basketball games, and the school spirit present dur- ing our rowdy pep sessions. Because of our leader- ship we will rightfully leave a legacy of talented, aggressive students with positive and excited at- titudes for those who follow. Although we will miss one another, the love and friendships we've acquired will never cease to be a part of our lives. Good luck Class of '87... your life has just begun. 1.

Class of '87 91 Juniors Are On The Right Track. When the class of 1988 entered LaPorte High School two years ago as freshmen, they were un- sure and nervous about the upcoming days. Not only was this class new to the high school, but they were, in fact, the first freshman class to at- tend the high school in many years. In addition to the normal pressures of social activities and grades, the new freshmen had to handle the ridicule of their classmates; at the time, it certain- ly seemed as if everyone was out to get the newest high school students. Despite all of these problems, the class thrived in its atmosphere. This year's juniors were both proud and self- reliant. They managed to organize their class in order to decorate for Homecoming. The Prom was also their responsibility. Luckily, they had planned ahead and accumulated a sizeable bank account — more than enough to pay for ''Dreamtime.” Out of the chaos of their early freshman year arrived the current juniors — next years seniors and the leaders of the future. 1 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS: President Mark Schreiber, Treasurer Gina Gierke.

One of the outstanding aspects ot the class was their ex- cellent participation in sports. Among the spectacular athletes was Varsity wrestler, Christopher Ellenberger, who was ranked 5th in the state in his weight class. Next came Lawrence McFarrin who found himself starting almost every game as a running back during the 1986-1987 football season, even though this is rare for a sophomore. Another extraor- dinary athlete was Amy VanSchoyck who has proven her skills in volleyball since her Freshman year. This year she played both Varsity volleyball and basketball as a Sophomore. Last but not least, John Bartolome wrestled at the Varsity level and was All-Conference for the L.P.H.S. Golf team as a freshman. This year he again wrestled and played golf for the varsity teams. Another strong point for the Sophomore class was their amazing academic abilities. As the second semester started Five people were ranked first for their academic achievements in the class of '89. The top Five were Lynn Bachman, Jason DeVaux, Allison Fenker, Dan Rosenbaum and Mark Rutz. Amazingly enough the Sophomore class has acquired the reputation of having the most sets of twins during the 1986- 1987 school year. As of the end of the first semester there were five sets of twins; the Kemps, the Alexanders, the Baileys, the Summerfields, and the Gunthers. All of which are fraternal. With all of the gifted and talented young people, the class of 1989 will no doubtedly achieve great success in everything they try to accomplish. 1.

They didn't have the dif- ficulties of new classes and trying to find their lockers any longer. Despite the first few hectic days, the class settled down to the routine of high school life. This year's sponsor for the freshman class is Mr. Rose. The freshmen have made many friends and have renewed old friend- ships. The freshmen have become active in sports and clubs which have given them new experiences and knowledge for their future high school years at LPHS. 1.

The ruthless Queen of Hearts (Kim Johnson), March Hare (Kellie Petrosky) and Mad Hatter (James McCormick) spiced the uniqueness that Krista Combs portrayed with the character of Alice. Gaining clues from the White Rabbit (Eric Schroeder) and the mystical duet of Tweedledee (Cary Newcomb) and Tweedledum (Hollis DeWitt). Alice (Krista Combs or understudy Julie Brown) was able to guess about what was to come. Later in the play, Alice (Krista Combs) was to be executed by the Execu- tioner (Robert McFaddcn) by the rule of the Queen of Hearts (Kim Johnson), but was proven innocent before the end of the play. All of the characters took on special characteristics that stood out under the direction of Mary- Fridh and assistant Stephanine Sanchez. The creative setting, mood-lighting and special effects with sound were supplied by the skills of the Theatrical Arts Technicians under the management of Robert Rhodes. Credit should be given to the costume designers and anyone associated with the play for the production of another exceptionally well done play for the public and students of LaPorte High School.

R formal on Saturday, January 31, 1987, was a memorable occasion for the G. R. members and their escorts. The theme of this year's formal was Til The Clock Strikes Twelve. The couples had an enchanting time dancing to the Beachcombers music. Refreshments were served and the couples relaxed at decorated tables. To be able to attend the for- mal each girl had to earn a certain amount of points. The girls received their points by selling wrapping paper and key chains. They also gained points by checking coats at the Silver Palace, working at a swim meet, and selling variety show tickets. Another way they earned points was by helping with preparations. The highlights of the eve- ning were the introduction of the cabinet and chaperones, and the garter ceremony which was recently intro- duced to the G.R. formal, and the crowning of the queens. This year's queens and runner-ups were: Freshman queen, Jennifer Mandeville; runner-up Debbie Jackson: Sophomore queen, Kim Williamson; runner-up, Theresa Novak: Junior queen, Jennifer Dowd; runner-up, Carrie Buss: Senior queen Shelly Jarrett; runner-up, Lisa Hennesy. For all the Excitement it created, this year's formal will be remembered by all who attended. 1.

Preparations A lot of time and energy goes into the preparations for the G.R. formal. The work that had to be done all starts early in the year. Meetings had to be held to decide what themes to use and what decorations to use. Once the decorations have been decided on, they have to be ordered. Later comes the hard part. During the days before the event, the decorations have to be put together and formed into a creation. The long hours and hard work are always appreciated when the event finally becomes reality. •VtYtVeVcVt � V 1. Lia McKinnon curls ribbon for the G.R. formal. 2. Lorie Hickie.

PROM PREPARATION Time, hard work, organization, prepara- tions, final preparations, meetings, choices, decisions, and more hard work is what goes into the Prom preparations. The meetings, choices, and decisions started a great deal of time before the actual workshops began. First they had to decide the theme of the dance, this was decided by Mark Schrieber. Once the theme was decided, they had to order the material to accompany the theme. Two weeks before Prom, the committees were established and the workshops began. One week before Prom the actual decorating of the Civic started. Donations were made and everybody joined in. Prom decorations committees were: Dance floor, Janine Tonsoni, Janalec Bowcll, and Kirin Northan; Entrance Hall, Ninette Hupp; Basement, Gina Gierke, Andrea Miller. 194 THE GIRL IN THE PICTURE' HAS HER MOMENT PROM — a very special time for many participants. The excitement is in the air for everyone, especially for the Prom Queen Candidates. Votes were taken from all Juniors and Seniors during the week before Prom. Mark Schreiber, the junior Class President, stepped on stage to begin the ceremonies. The Junior class Chairpersons were announced first, next came the Prom Queen Candidates and their escorts. All participants applauded when Patti Nossen was crowned 1987 l.a Porte High School Prom Queen. After Pat- ti received the symbolic crown and flowers she shared a dance plus many hugs and kisses from her escort Jim Cloutier. The Prom Queen Candidates for 1987 were: Patti Nossen, Desiree Bames, Nikki Vapensky, Melissa Moryl, Pam Tagliageri, Melinda McCombs, and Lisa Casper. 3 ■ 1.

'A NIGHT TO REMEMBER' FOR PROM GOERS The atmosphere that filled the Civic Auditorium on the night of May 16,1987 was all elegance. The weather was beautiful as the prom attendants arrived. Everybody dressed to their best for an evening they will never forget. This year's theme of the Prom was Dream- time. The decorations matched the theme as silver and blue streamers floated in the halls; and white, blue, and silver balloons enchanted the ceilings. Everybody joined in on all the fun. Couples, group, and friends danced to the music of 'Piz- zazz and then later took a walk downstairs for refreshments and to relax with friends or with their dates. Romance filled the air as slow songs were played, while guys took their dates by the hand to lead them in a dance. Also sadness filled the air because the seniors knew this was a last thrill and soon friends would be left behind. At midnight couples began to leave to get ready for the Post Prom dance. All the work tne juniors did was not entirely left behind because as couples left they grabbed decorations as a reminder of the evening. 196 1.

Discipline is not an easy part of anyone's job Not only did the faculty have his supponi but those students who grew to know him well also knew Mr Wcstphal could be a friend. and to some he became a father-figure. Thr administrative, autodial and cafetena staffs knew they could count on Mr Westphal Mt Westphal has a vast amount of knowledge of the working� of LPHS and the IjPone Community School System It is this strength that he leaves Dr Wayne with which for him to build 248 Retirees P«gv Droego.

Assistant Principal of I.PHS from 1969 to 1987 leaves u after 18 years as the assi� tant principal and after another 13 years pnor to that working both as a teacher and as a counselor Students, as recently as last summer, were still able to take advantage of Mr Westphal � expertise- a a teacher if they signed up for hb summer school government claw. It b his background in government that Mr Westphal intends to utilize now that he ha� loinrd the rank� of Indiana's Retired Educators. Retirement is good to people. Notice the dif- fercnce in Mr Wcstphal's expression some years before he was ready to retire. Mr. Westphal’s familiar face will be greatly missed from lunch room duty. Students and teachers knew where they could find Mr. Westphal every day from 11:00 a m to 12:45 p.m Mr. Westphal stands respectfully listening to Dr. Wayne's kind words. The Sun Shines Bright At the End of the Year The end of the school year was enjoyed by all. With the exception of finals and class projects, there were other things to look forward to. The warmer weather was celebrated with trips to the beach on weekends (or possibly on a given weekday). Prom was a deeply an- ticipated event, as well as the Junior-Senior Banquet. However, the most looked-forward to event for the Seniors was, without a doubt, graduation on June 7. This left the summer for us to work, enjoy, and treasure our memories of LaPorte High School.

Staff members were often seen roaming the halls, drawing on the chalkboard, playing Uno, and playing other various card games. Sometimes, the staff members just sat around. However, the things that the students didn't see was the hard work that was done right before each deadline. Amid the fights over croppers, grease pencils, pictures, and page titles, the work was done, and a hopefully decent yearbook was produced. 254 ELPE Staff The End' The end of a movie lists the credits to the people who have made the production possi- ble. It is now my turn to do the same. This book would not have been possible without the 1987 hi.PE staff and our advisor, Mrs. Judith Klosinski. Thanks to all of you. The staff members are not the only people who helped and deserve thanks. Ms. Donna Airington from Taylor Publishing was a big help and kept us from going crazy throughout the year. Mr. Don Fissgus, Root Photographers, and the LaPorte Herald Argus (with the help of jim Hale) were also major contributors to this book. I want to thank Rachell Shail for designing the book cover. Shawn Strojny also deserves applause for his artwork con- tributions. Last, but certainly not least, thanks go to Stacy Kobat and the other students in Mrs. Klosinski's classes for helping us during deadline times. it is my hope that this book will be enjoyed by ail. A yearbook should accurately capture the important moments during high school. A lot of time was spent preparing this book. I hope it is appreciated. ISS7 ELPF.
