I3I'l3 hool Escap Retai Index Alone within the mass of 650 fellow cohorts clutching books, pens, anddrulers used to provide a wall not meant to be penetrat- ed by faculty or classmates, mem- bers ofthe student body prepared to charge into life at Lakeland High School and face the empty stares and blank faces of other confused draftees. ln anxious anticipation toward the upcom- ing year, returning classmates wondered what changes had taken place in their three month absence. Mixed facial expressions showed an unwillingness to sur- render the excitement of summer but friends were glad to be re- united once again. With the arrival of the fresh- men as well as the sophomores, over half the population of the school was new, inexperienced, and uneducated as to its customs and traditions. Finding them- selves in the same dilemna, other rookies offered help. Mistakes were laughed about, while friend- ships developed. Smiles and happy words came as the young- er set found its place amid the earlier confusion, and watched the juniors and seniors for gui- dance. Some concepts and ex- periments such as the senior lou nge and team-teaching were new to all and had to be accepted by everyone. LIVING TOGETHER As the year progressed, a sense of belonging and acceptance as Lakers developed from the effort of upperclassmen, who offered help and friendship. This radiated a glow of caring as feelings, spread by working together for a Laker accomplishment, produced a family type security, with a closeness and concern felt for others. lndrividuals discovered strength in numbers: if some- thing was to be achieved, support was needed. Backing a cause the students believed in, whether it be the establishment of the senior lou nge or the hope of a wrestling sectional triumph, Lakers pulled together to attain victory. For seniors the realization that soon their whole lifewould be changed became something to ponder. The dream of graduation would soon be a reality as these experienced students became inf experienced adults. The memo- ries, both good and bad, were re- called as friends relived experi- ences with laughs, a few tea rs, and perhaps the wishto have done things differently. They faced a world where adjustments in principles and beliefs must be made to accomodate the new-found peace of our nation. Pitched into the world to be on their own, graduates passed from school's life into life's school. A Coming together from four separate environ- and accepting each other enjoying life at ments individuals merged at LHS to become an school and having pride in it - these were fac- inseparable part of their school. Living together tors that made the learninggoal tolerable. . ' ---is Opening doors for the first time, inductees of LHS discover- ed an atmosphere of learning where basic concepts, joined with original teaching procedures pro- duced knowledgeable young adults. Though not fully able to relate to the world outside the classroom, a world in itself was developed from 8:20 to' 3:25 within the walls of Lake- land, where students learned to accept or change the situ- ations put before them. When a new development arose, it was put on trial -judged by students and faculty alike. The decision affected each accord- ing to his role in school life. Boosting an awareness of people and their feelings: de- veloping a concern for others and the ability to live together: Both were a part of the learning process as Lakeland. Accepting differing personalities and opin- ions prepared these young Lak- ers forthe conflicts they would face in our present society. By experiencing actual difficulties on social and business levels, budding graduates prepared themselves to meet the real world of hard knocks , and set their minds to improve their world. Building responsible cit- izens was a key goal of the learning process. Learning Together l l i l l is ,. 'QF my S ' 1 -at Learning extendedfurther than books. Experience revealed much to students about living. Breaking away from the old ritual of lectur- ing' and note taking, experiments and actual participation accounted for a large .percentage of the class hour. Under the new ICE program, one-half of the day was devoted to on-the-job training, while the other half included classwork. Audio vi- sual aids and movies helped arouse student interest and deepen the om- niscience of subject matter. These became familiar sights as they were frequently used by instructors to present material. Boosting an awareness of people and helping to develop a concern for others. Lakeland prepares its students to learn from and live in harmony with people with differing beliefs. For LaGrange, , this ability has been dem t t d ons ra e successfully on the local and even the international level. Having gained insight into living, by receiving and storing in their brains experience and knowledge of life within their school, graduates were ready toencounter and con- quer the world and its problems. Twelve yea rs of schooling were over, yet much was left to be learned. The end was the beginning. While school was only a mock society in a small-scale world, it served as a microlaboratory for young minds to test themselves. Before entering the world, young adults were grad- ually seasoned and accustomed to what they had been sheltered from as children, an often uncaring, sel- fish populus. This is an age of competition. There is rivalry and even fighting between countries, within countries, and among races. People seem no longer to live for themselves, but only to beat others - to grow by crushing the spirit of a rival. There are no rules, no regulations, and -often there is no love. Lakeland too has rivals, yet our rivalry differs from the previous in that we know and live by sports- manship, rules, and friendship. We live with and learn from our compet- itors fsharing with them the loyal- ' ty, honor, and pride which develop from honest competition. ln all a deep respect and perhaps a form of love risingfrom the competition help us all climb away from the hostility of the worId's misdirected gladiators. ' At times competition seems a way of- life with Lakers, not only on the sports fields, but at every level of contact between students. The day starts with a race for a parking space followed by a challenge to ace an exam, to be first in the lunch line or to maneuver the handsome Competing Together senior into asking for a date by 3:00 p.m. Competition ebbs and flows within school sports, clubs, acade- mics, social life, and even within the individual student himself. The more confident individuals find con- tentment in competing only with themselves, trying to better past goals and reach new heights of inner success. With the successes and failures of competition. Lakers come to real- ize a sense of being gradually build- ing into a continually changing view of self-identity. Abandoning a court in defection after defeat, slamming a speeding line drive past the short- -' stop, screaming number sixteen across the finish line, raising the daily math .grade to a C plus, or breaking the mile record at 4:38 all fuse to etch out the Laker char- acter. I The experimenting. the fun. the striving, the improvementiall blend to mold the competing teams at large and the individual competitors themselves. From it all comes the growing and the maturing. This is an age of competition, yet we have not been and need not be crushed by it. .

For four years, Lakers live, learn, and compete together on the inside of a school world away from the eyes of the community. For most LaGrange County residents and parents, ' Lakeland sits behind a hill over which few LaGrange-ites care to pass. Parents lacking time, afraid of embarassing their children, - or feeling mildly apathetic about education seldomly enter Lake- land walls, leaving their sons and daughters to run their own school lives. .W Although Lakeland is in a way a micro-cosm of LaGrange County morays and values Lakeland High truly does pos- sess its own identity, its own character, its own unique IN- SIDE world. This world, a mini- society deeply interested in the student's future and dedicated to working with and elevating the student, differs from the world outside its protective walls, an OUTSIDE world so busy paving the roads of pro- gress, it sometimes forgets to build sidewalks for those who would rather walk than ride. In the outside world with its many opportunities for success fledgling residents newly out of the school shell often battle social apathy more than the proverbial wolf at the door. Pre- paring for the flustration of this battle against a too-busy-for- me-world becomesa primary goal for Lakeland educators. fi X' tlr' W gg I .i ,y . g ' , 'A . .. y , ,fx ,QL ' Sffvrr 5 5, '+ me we ai ' K4 i' I A ii'.

J A: lnvovement at Lakeland varies from day to day . depending on the student body attitude. Here, at a LHS pep-session, the attention of stu- dents is divided among unspirited interests. Lakers share joy and agony. Life goes on and the spark existing at Lakeland proved unique. Those ar- clently involved grew in spirit, knowledge, and ability, while others, countingthe passing days, grew impatient. bored, and lifeless. For those involved. existing was participating and sharingtheirjoys and agonies, but also comprehending and understanding. Be it in sports or ac- ademics, only the best was good enough. Perfection was their goal. and their will to put forth all they had to achieve was more important than an A or a victory. They created their own environ- ment. and it effected every segment of their realization. E: Cleaning can be fun if a conversation can be held at the same time.

All my life l wanted to be a cheer- leader Work Work . . . The life of a cheer- leader, a hectic route, whether trying to find a means of transporation to prac- tice or leading cheers in front of 1000 people, proved difficult as the squads tried to elavate a failing school spirt. Five varsity cheerleaders travelled to Smith-Walbridge Camp in Syracuse, Ind. for a week of intensive training in yell leading procedures. The wrestling room became the ideal private place for the varsity squad to work out on the mini-tramp acquired this year by candle and ribbon sales during the summer. Securing an old concession room to store their supplies and pom pons, cheerleaders led opposing team cheer- leaders to this new found office during game half times. Accompanying the JV to the spring clinic at Tri-State, four new freshmen cheerleaders gained professional help on learning new cheers, stunts, and techniques. Thirteen girls worked hand in hand in 1973 to raise spirit and form a unique Lakeland sorority. D: During basketball sectional the cheerleaders attempt to build school spirit by doing a yell at the beginning of every class period over the PA system, F: A time out during the sectional gives the cheer- leaders a chance to put Laker spirit back in gear. This game was the last for senior members of the squad. I V W, . ..,. mum LHS OPP. LHS OPP.

Before each varsity football game the locker room echoed such immortal words as the players readied them- selves for the job ahead. After taping weak ankles and donning pads for protection, offensive and defensive squads reviewed maneuvers and tactics to be used against the opposition. The team prayer was said, then out to the field for victory. Although a final record of 2-7 seemed to prove the team weak, the Laker grid- ders tallied 124 points to 121 of the opponents' combined scores. Bad breaks and mistakes struck at vital times during the games and accounted for defeat in the majority of the season. Statistics ap- peared to make the season strong, but the team found it hard to put it all together and come up with a victory. lf a mistake was made, the momentum shattered: the team lost con- fidence. When the rhythm broke, the 18 moral went down and it took too long to be built back up. lnexperience due to a youngteam hurt the performance as did a lack of steady playing. The tackle trophy, an incentive to work harder, went to junior Bill Oesch. With 143 tackles total for the season, Bill was awarded the annual honor at the spring athletic banquet. Bill, along with senior Jon Naylor and junior Bob Omstead was named to the 1972 Sturgis Journal Area All-Star Prep Football Team for athletic excellence. Senior John Leu won the Mike Ulrich award, being voted the outstanding senior play- er by his teammates. When practice began on August 12, forgotten muscles and unfit bodies suf- fered through hard work, sweat, and practice to develop a strong team. Team pride and a never-quit attitude kept the squad plugging for that out-of-reach victory. 4...

In any athletic event, the individual can be separated from the group -the basketball player shooting a free throw, the football player making a touchdown. ln some sports, such as tennis, the in- dividual struggles were more obvious. Each player competed in his own match' At the end of the individual matches, the scores were totalled and the win- ner determined. The Laker racketmen showed spirited team effort and tremendous individual skill as they won 8 of their 11 duo meets during the year. The only losses suffered were against Ft.

Terry Grove leads harriers. Endurance was a prime factor of the Lakeland cross country team. Running almost every day after school required not only much time and practice on the part of the harriers, but also the ability to bear the pain after having run between five and ten miles at each prac- tice. Last year the harriers suffered through a season of six wins and 13 losses. Complicating the season was the newly enlarged two and one half mile course. Sophomore Terry Grove, leading man on the team with an average time of 14:16, said of the extended co-urse, lt was more difficult due to the extra one half mile, but you could not reduce your speed because of the competition. Throughout the season, the harriers endeavored to unite strength and stamina in the hope of placing as much distance between themselves and the opposition as possible. The outcome de- pended onthe combined not the in- dividual efforts ofthe team. 3 Cross Country - 25 G.A.A. gals dis- play skills and abilities. Come on Lee, you can do it! Just one more point to win! The Girl-'s Athletic Association cen- tered around the sports of softball, vol- leyball, basketball, and track. This organization gave the girls of LHS a chance to display their skills and abil- ities in sports against other schools. Much time was spent not only on inter- scholastic events, but also on apparatus such as the trampoline, weight machine and uneven parallel bars. Sponsors of the club Mrs. Donna Hed- strom and Miss Jackie Kohne scheduled and coached the teams and activities. These individuals spent much time help- ing the girls learn to control and maneu- ver the ball. The softball and volleyball teams ended the season with records of O-3 and 2-6, respectively. Even while both teams had losing records, the girls learned to cooperate and work together as teams. Coached by Mrs. Hedstrom, the bas- ketball team ran laps and scrimmaged to improve their agility and skill in the handling and shooting ot the basketball lf 'HI H ..M f55'Ef!ff?xfK V 1' '- A: Going up for the rebound is senior Lee Meek, high scorer for the Lady Lakers.

Determination and team-spirit remained high as the season ended with a 9-11 win-loss record. There were various highlights through out the season, the two brightest ones being the Sturgis and Prairie Heights games. The turning point ofthe season was the Sturgis battle, where after los- ing seven games straight the JV's ral- lied and ended their victory-striving sea- son with almost a 50-50 record. As four over-times were called in the Prairie Heights game, the Lakers chalked up another victory, ending with the score of 51-50. High scorer of the year was Doug Harp with 122 points, with Jim Duncan following with a total of 115 points, and Mark Caldwell coming in third with 107 points. At the end of the season, Coach Lei- ter stated, All in all, the team worked hard, listened well, played together, and wanted to win: But most of all they ALL had good attitudes!

But whatever the challenge, a Laker did his best which many times proved to be enough.

JV matmen rackup 8-2-1. A strong determined junior varsity wrestling squad racked up an impressive 8-2-1 1972-73 season. Twenty men fol- lowed strict diets, strained through calls- thenicsfran countless laps, and perfect- ed correct wrestling holds to achieve team and individual goals. Junior varsity action was hampered due to a lack of opponents. Opposing teams consisted of only one to thirteen members, while the Lakers boosted a full roster of thirteen men. The most competitive action for JV matmen came during intrasquad competition in after- school practices. Junior varsity and varsity grapplers in the same weight class participated weekly in challenges. The winners of these individual matches determined the varsity wrestler for each team match. JV grapplers Jay Wainwright, Jerry Cross and Dudley Brown earned extra recogni- tion by wrestling with the varsity squad for one or more meets. The junior varsity team attended the East Noble Tournament to gain experi- ence in tourney action. These Laker men competed with eight other area schools, ranking third. Rod Strayer, Chester Boyle and Terry Grove placed first with Ver- non Egli second and Jay Wainwright third. Coach Emerick stated, Participating and competing on the junior varsity squad was mainly a learning experience. The men tried just as hard as the var- sity but received little ofthe glory.

The play dealt with rookie teacher Miss Sylvia Barrett tportrayed by Kathy Harplwhose inexperience caused pro- blems as she tried desparately to help as well as teach the non-caring, dis- ruptive students in her classes.

Twenty-four juniors played supporting roles, adding their talents to the final presentation of the play.

To protect our teen-agers and to keep our highways safe, LHS offered to La- Grange sixteen-year-olds a training pro- gram for developing driving skills in its summer driver's education program. Legally, graduates of the program are entitled to obtain a driver's license at an earlier age than non-program stuf dents. Economically, the drivers find that insurance companies often lower their auto insurance rates for students who complete an accredited program. The student driver's day began as early as 6:30 a.m., a day divided among actual driving experience, observation time, and classroom study. For two months, he learned safety, safety, and more safety. He learned to watch the other driver for he could be your killer. With Lakeland students being maimed and killed each year in auto accidents, the instructors in driver's education did their best to impress upon eager Lake- land auto enthusiasts the meaning of Drive Defensively . A: Driving trainee Ed Helmkamp checks his reac- tion time on a reflex machine run by instructor Mr. Potter. Results impress upon young drivers the need to keep driving speed down.

Incorporating over 100 cast, cho- rus, and orchestra members, OLIVER set in 1850 London told of a young orphan boy struggling within a sinister yet merry criminal society of Cock- ney pick-pockets, con-men, and mur- derers. Brutally treated by work- house masters and threatened by strong arm mobsters, Oliver eventual- ly found a benefactor in his own new- ly discovered grand-father, ironically the very man he was forced to rob.

Miss Sokol replaced Mrs. Armentano for the second semester. COMMUNICATION Cke-myoo'ne-kat'shenj: ' 'o's M- the exchange of thoughts and messages. That's what English was all about. Over five hundred students strove to learn and to please their instructors in vocabulary, literature, grammar, compo- sition, speech, and drama studies. Three and four years of hard work pre- pared Lakeland students to communi- cate with the outside world. The basic English classes were filled with the haunting presences of past 'great' minds. The students became in- volved with authors' styles and ideas. They devised the most effectual way to present themselves in written and oral form. The drama class studied communica- tion through facial expressions and ac- tions. The speech class learned to vo- cally express facts and opinions formally and concisely. Journalism classes reported to the school and the community on news per- taining to student involvement. High- lights of the year were captured on film and in print. The school year 1972-73 became a time for mastering communication, a bond between all. Lakers exchange thoughts.

The team-teaching is a new idea at Lakeland Teams experiment. Remember the old saying that two heads are better than one? Well Lake land proved the point when it experi mented in team-teaching last year. Each English class had two teachers, who taught one enlarged class. Teachers found this method enabled them to cov- er material more thoroughly and to teach the area of English in which they were strongest. Students realized this method would stifle their uproarious spirits and give them more to do, but they also found that the change of teachers added a little variety to the class. By expanding the library into a media center and building two new carpeted classrooms, Lakeland made room for the new Freshman. The new addition, which seats approximately 265 students, also provided room for the enlarged English classes. Q!

Unlike the other classes at Lakeland High School, plans forthe Mirage began during the summer. For two weeks, editors of the Mirage Bev Bontrager and Steve Gage fthe first male editor at LHSQ, and business manager Karen Elliott traveled to BSU for a jour- nalism workshop, where they attained an award for excellence. During those two weeks, they explored classes of layout designing, copy writing, and color usage, hoping to combine the knowledge into the making of a yearbook. The Mirage served as a historical record of school happenings and as a remembrance of the vear past. When- ever someone opened the Mirage, ne turned back the pages of time, to re- member.

Language, the basis of all communica- tion, linked the students and faculty members of LHS in their efforts to understand one another. Gaining know- ledge of the past intrigued the Latin, Spanish, and German classes. With the help of Nlr. Fred Hellman, Latin and German students examined the legends of the mythological past. Aided by text books, lab equipment, and drill exercises, pupils acquainted them- selves with world cultures. Taught by second year veteran Mrs. Diane Shelton and first year instructor Miss Susan Blackwell, Spanish enabled students to compare the similarities and differences of that language with Eng- lish. The goal of the Spanish classes was to learn to think in the language, so that they could speak and write in it. All languages were alike in that they brought individuals closer together through common goals. D: Senior Cheri Gilman points out places of in- terest in Germany visited on her European tour.

Five contemporary and modern kitchens enabled many girls to cook simultaneously. A complete dinner, a departmental activity of each girl, includ ed everything from shopping for gro- ceries to the ever present cleaning up the mess afterwards. Twelve electric sewing machines of- fered the latest features for future seam stresses. After endless fittings and the ripping out of seam after seam, each girl reflected a feeling of accomplish- ment when trying on the f.inished gar- ment. A glassed-in living area displayed modern furniture accented by shades of blue, green and lavender. Along with a bedroom and bath, this area helped students experience the beauty of home making and interior-decorating. Under the capable hands of Mrs. Rose Masterone, optional semester courses were opened to all girls, excluding fresh- men. These subjects ranged from hous- ing to human relations. Mrs. Marilyn Dunten taught half days, instructing the theory of home- making to freshmen girls. With up-to- date facilities, this department link- ed today's lessons with tomorrow's needs.

With a language all its own, the mathe- matics department of LHS confused many aliens as well as a few members of classes. Mastering the words of the figures, symbols, and equations taught students basic concepts and enabled them to apply logic and math to their own lives. An expansion in this department, due F to the addition offreshmen and their i required courses increased the need for additional instructors. Mr. Tom Smith, in his first year at LHS, prepar- ed business math students to reason through problems found in everyday situations. Figuring taxes and mortgages and computing interest on accounts helped students to understand the eco- nomics of the US dollar. Mr. Dennis Baxla educated freshmen and sophomores with general math, the pure math on a less complex level. He along with Mr. Mont Arnold, amazed first year algebra probers with equations and theorems. Geometry instructor Mr. Michael Wade helped students perceive the theories of proofs involving such tools as the compass and protractor. In advanced algebra, Mr. Tom Adams challanged math scholars with equations of multiple variables and logarithms. Mr. Wade presented daring seniors with ad- vanced mathematical concepts in com- puter programming, trigonometry, func- tions, and calculas. Computer programming, a new voc- ational course at Tri State College, in- volved three Lakeland seniors. Ellie Wood- worth, Brian O'Brain, and Glenn Love- lace traveled to Angola daily for a two hour training course, preparing them for future jobs in data processing. 4 A: Freshmen Julie Hopper concentrates on solving a perplexing problem in Mr. Mont Arnold's class. ln his first year of teaching at Lakeland, Mr. Arnold instructed beginning algebra students.

Perfection is the key word usage of eight different machines, in LHS typing classes. Lakers practice forthe business world. A major portion of Lakeland's ,cur- riculum involved preparation for the future in a business world. Ranging from simple to complex, the courses promot- ed skill in nine different business areas. Efficiency resulted in novice typists, salesmen, lawyers, bookkeepers, sec- retaries, executives, and successful con- sumers. Typing, the most practical business course, aided students in their educa- tion and future occupations. Speed and accuracy were taught through drills, timed writings, and production typing. Shorthand classes also stressed speed and accuracy, by exercising mind and finger coordination through transcribing and taking dictation. Accounting classes taught business concepts and proce- dures. Additional business classes included general business, office practice, sales, office machines, business law, and con- sumer economics. Mrs. Booth, Mr. Hed- strom, and Mr. Risser combined forces to teach students the ways of the busi- nessworld. Gaining opportunities in the business world and knowledge of our economy proved the business classes worth- while. D: Seniors Margo Welker and Pat O'Connor con- centrate on transcribing symbols into words. Taking dictation and building speed was the goal in first and second year shorthand. E: First year typists follow Mrs. Pat Booth's ad- vice, Double space and use a sixty space line.

First year draftsmen began with single stroke gothic lettering to learn the basic skills of drawing, later progressing to pictor- ials. Advanced projects included three or six view drawings and house plans. First year machine shop made straight pean hammers. The advanced class made center prick punches, machinist clamps and car ramps. They used equip- ment such as lathes, milling machines, grinders and welders when working on projects. This year's graphic arts classes with the guidance of lVlr. Steve Marsh learned basics of the printing press, linolium block printing, and the application of photography to off-set printing. Chili- supper, and class plays tickets provided opportunities for students to apply their knowledge of moveable type printing.

Topics studied ranged from the general study of health careers to the vibrations of every heart beat. Forming the nucleus of the vocational health program, Mr. Ora Hartman and her assistant Mrs. Margaret Wagner in- troduced the world of dedicated work. Interested in health, the girls studied care for the ill and injured and services to prevent illness. While some girls prepared for health occupations that required little special training, others prepared for an extend- ed education before they started work. Vocational health provided three objec- tives: Exploration of health careers, pre- preparation for post-high school study, and preparation of job entry, This pro- gram offered an opportunity to find the direction and goals needed for work and education, now and in the future! B: Amusement goes along with learning in voca- tional health as shown here by Mrs. Hartman's all girl class. Terry Hennessee volunteers to an- swer a question concerning the heart. Farmers work to produce more. As LaGrange County hungrily gulped in new industries and the people need- ed to operate them, that shadowing farm disease, urban sprawl, bit away at the edges and corners of county farm- lands annually reducing the amount of productive farm acreage, yet persistently snowballing the need for more farm pro- duce. Confronting the new crop of Lake- land vocational agriculture students was the problem of producing more on less land while still turning a respectable pro- fit. While the Lakeland soil-turners de- voted ample classtime to the textbook lessons on produce marketing and sound financial farm planning, these students, under the direction of Mr. Gary Web- ster, also invested many hours of man- ual labor at the school farm applying their textbook ideas in real life situa- tions. These leadership and farm experi- ences helped them to become the com- petent farm leaders of tomorrow's La- Grange County. These young men and women always remain the backbone of American society .

Independent study gave the students freedom to experiment with various forms of art. Students view life with artist's eye. Creativity through self-expression, the goal strived for by the four Lakeland art classes was found by artists talk ing through pen and ink, paint brushes, and charcoal. Drawing, painting, sculp- ting, ceramics, and individual projects composed the route students travelled to fulfill their aesthetic ambitions. As a major year-long project, the art classes decorated the display case. Ex- perimental pallets, student portraits, sculptures, and paintings filled the case. Another endeavor of the classes includ- ed planning and hosting the LHS spring show. The fundamentals of art, as taught by Miss Smith and interpreted by the stu- dents, led to an intensified view of self and life. Mastering the art design, color, line, form, texture, and value, students gained a beginning artist's insight into living, viewing life with an artist's eye. Language arts gains educa- tional wing. An increased need for larger library facilities and more classrooms led to the new educational wing on the west side of LHS. The extended media center provid- ed 5O'Mw additional individual study and research areas. The English department dominated the remainder of the new section. The two large language arts rooms. one on each side of the media center. were designed with movable par- titions to accommodate from one to three classes. Due to insufficient dividers between these rooms, noise filtered from class to class, intertupting discussions and study sessions. Yet, students and teachers learn to moderate their voices and activities as the year continued. E: Last-minute preparations to complete the media center take place one week prior to opening day, The library offers resources and entertainment with individual and group study areas.

This year's group achievements set a high standard for groups of the fu- ture to attain, stated director lVlr. James Liechty. Through weeks of stren- uous summer auditions, the twenty top vocalists were chosen to comprise the Columbia Blue Notes, or as Nlr. Liechty put it, the Red, White and Blue Review. The new name was appropriate: the boys dressed in patriotic striped pants with matching ties and the girls had skirts of the same material. White shoes and boots topped off the outfits. Upon achieving a superior rating at the Northern Indiana School Band, Or- chestra and Vocal Ass'n contest, the Blue Notes took on a new spirit. The group traveled to Lincoln High School at Cambridge City to provide a clinic in choreography forthe Cambridge Swing Choir and presented a convo for the school's entire student body. Finishing the tour the Blue Notes traveled to South Adams High School in Berne ln- diana to perform before their school as- sembly. Combined with a schedule for nearly 40 local performances, these activities provided the individual mem- bers with the chance to better their own school spirit in a unique way. C: After receiving high honors at the NISBOVA Swing Choir contest, the Blue Notes had the honor of performing with other state finalists at indiana- polis. Here they perform for the public.

Listen children to a story that was written long ago . , Voice quality and control were exercised by the choir members as they practiced One Tin Soldier forthe Christmas concert. Many of the members participated in the mu- sical Oliver . Some played as leading roles: others as town people. This year the concert choir had 62 members of all four classes. The chloir met five days a week during home room period at 10:30. Putting in endless hours of individual and class practice played an important factor in the organization of this year's stage band. The band is only offered to students who are musically mature and interested. This year the stage band performed at varsity basketball games during half time, 4-H fair, contest where they received a second rating, a de- lightful tour of the junior high schools, and a performance at Howe Military's prom. Director Mr. Leichty assumed the re- sponsibilities for both the vocal and in- strumental department. This is lVlr. Leichty's second year of d irecting both music departments.

Rhythmic steps combined with tune- ful notes as the pom-pon girls and marching band joined forces to form the Lakeland High School Marching Band. Under the direction of Mr. James Leichty, these skilled marchers spent many hours perfecting half time shows for football games. Time was an import- ant factor as bandmen often had only two or three days to learn a complete show. Frozen toes, hours of practice, and tired muscles were soon forgotten as the band stepped off for each pre-game entrance. The Symphonic band participated in three concerts during the year. The win- ter and spring performances were pre- sented forthe general pu blic, while the annual mucis festival, a combination of the high school county bands perform- ing at Prairie Heights, played for the enjoyment of the whole county. With more musicians than ever before, LHS formed two bands, a symphonic band consisting of 97 students and a concert band composed of 30 students. Beginning musicians trained in concert bancl joined in symphonic band pre- sentations. 104 - Concert Band J.---J A: ICE worker AI I-lelmkamp applies a safety in- spection sticker to a car checked at LaGrange County Dodge.

Others saw further learning ... some on a col- lege campus and some on the job. Whatever the goal, the past years had the same effect on every senior. With the realization that twelve years of education were almost completed, flashes of recesses, finger painting, sock- hops, homerooms and school skipping haunted anxious seniors. As sophomores, they entered the world of hurrying to get to class on time and last minute cramming for final exams, often confused in the midst of it all. As juniors, they learned how to fit into this world while looking forward to being seniors . . . and the leaders of our school. Then on to their senior year . .. the most important of all ...when each individual came to the full awareness that in a few short months they would be leaving a part of their lives behind, shedding their adolescence for the rai- ments of adults and for the adult world beyond. Seniors have witnessed their greatest change . . . from childhood to young adults! A: A Josten's representative measures senior Diane Davis for her cap size.

B: Breaking from the monotonous routine of school. Phil fYogij Miller skims through a maga- zine as he relaxes in a bookshelf. Yogi takes advantage of the 30 minutes during homeroom. sense of 'home'. The juniors came back to their second year at LHS as highly-spirited and fun- loving students, ready to fight and con- quer in any competitive activity. They substituted the feeling of 'belonging' for that of 'newness', as they shed the sophomore label of 'greenies'! The annual magazine campaign, a near disaster, was salvaged by a last determined effort of novice salesmen. The juniors set an all time record in the sales, S4-59l.11, the profits being in- vested in producing the annual junior- senior prom. When homecoming week rolled around, the juniors added to the fes- tivities with a decorated hall and the winning spirit float. Anxious to dissolve their lagging reputation for work of the previous year, the juniors submitted the first spirit sign during the basketball season. Now only one year remained until the final ascending step to gradua- tion. Filled with enthusiasm and antici- pation, the juniors waited for their sen- ior year! 122 -Junior Life u iff. .,,, ,ssl Wir,-.,i -Q . .. f. , . gqi,,,,,v..t.,fel.,.,,,,g,.,fi.me,,.,.,,5.l.,l .tt .. .. .. , 21fgywgffglffsisfifiizfg',a1v1Jf:iff1f let, ,f,,1,: 1 .. f 1- :1 l :' d 51,,,.,,., ..., ,, .,.,,, , .,,. ,.,.,, ,.,, ..,, ,, ,L , ,, , ' ff.4..,1,-.tt .,., H um, ,.,, t,.,f,,5,, W, , ,sea ,.,, ,, , ,.W,, t ,.,,, .. . ,.l-fm, . ,,..,.iW,M, 1,-ff is 3 ., AbAf jst 1,-:, .xkfwv w fww, 1.5,-,f ,-A: .A., . ....,,,,L., Q ,,,., 4 ,,,,,, ,.,, 'Hill' limi!435?i:'ii11 1'lTk?5,v' fb-1 fin-:il .'?,::'5.-'Wff' A' 1:-1 fn t t'v'::'f-,gf wa, -ef,-'wr jj iirfvqglfiiwyi-3 ,ty ,ee LQ 4. ,,v.,f2s2'21,wM.,. si :-fi .-Q . -. -- .,-- fx -- - 1 l se25..fs :ffxsr:fay,:3-Qeaz,:etvkfsi ff w--fl ,e 11- lf--121 - f 11-31122211 , Tx:-,'fIL,H'vztgxz we ff-:fr --W-Qzfw zzrrffl l +ve- 11+ qffezfs fffafsgss, mr i ...,., e reeled: Staffs-mf-:.i:,1.esf,is'f'l 1117, eslrzvrzaef,,fggq,.w vei5g,e,, 1ff:ff'1f'f1'fegi,yt wel,,,J21fs'ggjg'f'3-Qfflfit-Jig.-1f,eg.: ,Q,,,,1 .f,z .,,,, ,k.W o. ,,1, 1.

Sophomores rap on school life. How did sophomores feel about their first year at Lakeland? This year has been trying to get used to the teachers. I think we have all learned a lot about each other. Homecoming was a fun time. 'Llpperclassmen were snotty. The onlything l've gained has been a lot of new friends. lt has been quite boring but it also has been an experience. My whole year has been super-sluff. We should have had the same rights as the upper classes. D: During an autumn pep session. sophomores Dawn Pletcher and Sandy Winkler loin their in- struments with the rest of the band in support of the LHS football team. E: Sophomores Dana VanWagner. Todd Leer and Tim Barrows relax along a row of lockers before beginning the drudgery of another day. Mixed fac- ial expressions show different opinions of class. 129 Describe the Sophomores. Whatare sophomores? Perhaps it is easier to say what they are not. Sophomores are not the rookies of the Lakeland High School society, they are not the senior patriarchs: they are not members of the largest class at Lake- land. Sophomores are one ofthe in- between classes. They gradually work- ed their way into the Laker circles. prov- ing that they could stand on their own two feet. Eventually, sophomores estab- lished a corner in the society of Lake- land.

Among the haste and worry of fore gotten classes. lockers. and lost com- binations. the sophomores mingled into the regular routine of LHS. The class of '75 went through frustraf tion during theirfirst homecoming week with mixed results.

Stumbling inthe halls and frequently losing their way discouraged freshmen as they desperately sought their classes through the 'jumbled-up' halls of LHS. Decorating their hall for the holidays, painting a spirit sign for the gym, and other activities challenged the inexperi- enced freshmen during their first year at Lakeland. When the upperclassmen cut in to the lunch line, the freshmen had no choice but to 'back off'. When upperclassmen had a priority over open homeroom, the freshmen reluctantly remained in their classes. So many times the life of a freshman seemed an unbearable burden. Even though they suffered the handi- cap of being the youngest students LHS has ever known. being a freshman wasn't all bad. After several months of being stepped on, teased, and tortured, the freshmen became an integral part of Lakeland.

Walking down the hallways gave the freshmen a special feeling of belonging. The freshmen's first attempt to or- ganization was the election of class officers and student council representa- tives. Many of the freshmen plunged into high school sctivities a little scared at first: But as time passed theeir confidence increased rapidly. The freshmen year, a proud year, was the beginning of a high school life. 5 .l Frosh strive to belong Thirty-eight teachers face the students. Thirty-eight to six hundred and eighty weren't very good odds, but that's how the situation stood between teachers and students at Lakeland. Sometimes it was not apparent who was learning more, the teachers or the students! Teachers faced the problem of trying to find that special spark which lighted a student's dull eyes after fifteen min- utes of class time. They lectured, pro- voked and even threatened in order to shake the curiosity of the students. Students, on the other hand, tried to involve the teachers in what was going on outside of class. They questioned, rapped and even challenged in order to draw the teacher from his academic W shell. Through patience and acceptance, l'l'l' both students and teachers learned from 1? each other through-out the year.

Faculty members encourage students The word humanity had many def- initions last year at Lakeland High School one being a condition or quality of being human. Perhaps the people who best depicted this meaning were the faculty members, These individuals cared for the aca- demic and social welfare of their stu- dents. Academically, they instructed their classes in learning of life, feeling that the ultimate goal for a student was the development of his ability to think. Socially, the faculty members en- couraged students to join clubs and take part in extra-curricular activities, so that students might gain confidence and ex- tend their knowledge ofthe world. Unlike the stereotyped image of tea- cher and student, LHS personnel worked together with pupils helping them to better understand themselves and a changing way of life.

To keep up with an enlarged school, the Laker staff gave valuable assistance to students and faculty throughout the year. The cooks, custodians, and secre- taries organized an efficient school system. Mrs. Martha Moore, aided by l.C.E. participants Octavia Patrick, kept the school office operating smoothly. These secretaries welcomed visitors, recorded absentees, prepared announcements, and dittoed materials for the teachers. Mrs. Doris Menges, familiar to all Lakers, managed all extracurricular money, textbook rental, checks, lunch business, and the bookstore. Wayne Lewis joined Clark Babcock, Ova Smith, and Beulah Smith in handling school maintenance. The janitors' daily tasks included sweeping, mopping,wash- ing windows, and making repairs.

Meetings are held on Monday evenings. The School Board, an agency of the state, was the foundation for the Lakeland School Corporation. The ad- visors and members ofthe board were representative of all persons in the community. They believed that each in- ' dividual should have equal opportuni- ties. Howard E. Petersen, vice-president of the board stated, The School Board should be economical and efficient to the end, so that the goals of the stu- dentarefurtheredf' Coming from various backgrounds in the county, the board tried to act in accordance with the wishes of the people in the community. Mr. Earl Gould served as president for the 1972-1973 school year. Mr. Ivan Burger, a member for seven years. acted as secretary. Super intendent Dean B. Smith and Herbert Grubaugh performed the duties of ad- visors. Members consisted of Mrs. Betty Troyer and Mr. Jack Price. Another mem- ber, Mr. Carl Lundberg served on the board for ten months. What would Lakeland have done with- out the key people -the School Board? They acted as the decisive means for settling notpnly the controversial issues. but the trivial ones as well. These issues could not be solved by ordinary authorative channels such as the school administration and faculty members. Another function of the board was to lay a sound educational structure forthe school system. Encouragement for curriculum study and experimentation were also listed among the board's many tasks. Although the purpose of the board was to maintain a high level of communi- cation between the students and ad- ministration of Lakeland, several mat- ters of adverse opinion were disputed and deliberated upon. but remained un- settled.

Perhaps one of the most active organ- izations this year, the Speech Club was in its third year of existance. Sponsored by lVlr. John Wilson and led by president Jim Garver. the club bore its way into the core of Lakeland activities and spirit. Speechers organized a Christmas con- vocation forthe student body. Members presented two original plays, one a reli- gious drama written by senior Kerry Blanchard and the other a seasonal comedy by teacher Kevin Beuret. With winter also came the first speech and debate events. Lakeland's first speech invitational highlighted the year. Fourteen Indiana schools responded to the invitation making the clubs effort a success. lVlr. Wilson commented, Many of our members earned nu- merous forensic league points making this a highly productive and successful year. Through out the year, speechers John Swihart. Kerry Blanchard, Denise Harp, and Julie Gains hosted the local radio program Spotlight on Lakeland . The show featured school news and popular music every Thursday over Howe lVlili- tary's radio station WHWE.

The cata- pult contest not only saw the Latin club out-distance all local challenges, but also win first place in the national catapult contest. One activity of the Spanish club was to host the annual Christmas party and record hop. The foreign language club also manned the coat check room during basketball games. The highlight of the year, the Christ- mas party, brought gaiety and laughter to all who participated.

The sound of Lakeland's Pep Club could be heard through the dark of the night at a LHS football game and also echoing around the gymnasium. The pep club brimmed over with spirit, although diminishing in number. Active members created and boosted Laker moral as their goal. Making spirit signs, selling buttons, sewing columbia blue sailor dresses, and decorating halls and lockers helped pro- duce enthusiasm. What made a true pep club member? Braving the rain and cold to cheer on the gridmen, cramming at least three in a bus seat to give added support at an away basketball game, faking artistic talent to create spirit signs, getting up at 5:30 on Saturday morning to encourage LHS regional grapplers, and even waking up hoarse the morning after any Lakeland sports event, all contri- buted to the LHS pep clubber. Was it worth it? A pep club mem- ber replied, Any victory means much more if you know you had a part in it. We are THE Lakers . , . the MIGHTY, MIGHTY Lakersl!l 157 Fifty ladies join Y-teens. Y-Teens, strickly a girI's club formed from the national branch of the YWCA, involved fifty girls with various activities including the initiation of new members, selling apples and pickles at football games, the Christmas dance, a shopping trip, and community service work. The set goal of the club was to work well with others and be a service to all. This year's officers included president Deb Holcomb, vice president Nancy Cobbs, secretary Denise Harp, and treas- urer Becky Oesch. Miss Sandy Smith served as advisor. On December 22, the annual Y-Teens Christmas dance was held with the theme, A Christmas Under the Snow. The evening held dismay for ticket-hold- ers as the band tentatively scheduled did not arrive until late in the evening. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the new 1972 queen, Denise Harp. With the arrival of lVlay, the club sponsored a Y-Teens Mother-Daughter banquet in honor of lVlother's Day.

Sponsor of the LHS Science Club lVlr. Tom Add- ams would say Noi Exploration into the unknown andthe excitement of adven- ture do prevail in today's youth. A young childs constantcuriosity and an adolescents insistant probing can de- velope into a great scientific potential if properly stimulated. With that thought in mind, Lakeland's Science Club pro- vided its members with exploratory ex- peditions into the field of science with energies culminating in an annual sci- ence fair. Participation in these events left the student with a sense of well- earned accomplishment and pride. Patience, honesty and genuine desire to serve the public: these were but a few of the many traits necessary for a suc- cessful future nurse.

The 1972-73 school year did not find the National Honor Society a silent, in- active group who existed only for the glorification of members and whose sole function was the induction of new mem- bers at the end of the year.

Enthusiasm pre- vailed among members and the project became reality. With the support of various clubs and classes the Honor Society sponsored a child for a year. The club didn'tforget itstraditional duties, however. The awards for the most academic club and team were presented to science club and tennis team. and the new members were inducted to take over the work begun in 1973. 166 - NHS A: NHS officers Lee Nleek, secretary, John Saddler, president, and Karen Brown, treasurer discuss with sponsor Nlrs.
