The weather proved exceptional for the opening night of Corn School festivities as the crowds grew in number. With the temperature ranging in the '7O's, the LaGrange community came out from behind a television set to join in the fun of a street fair. Some people came to see the crowning of the queen, some came to see little brothers and sisters in the kiddie parade, yet others came just to come. After the Tuesday night heat wave, a cold snap startled many fair goers, but the crowds still continued to tool Detroit Street. Many people enjoyed watching the little kids on the merry-go- round, or listening to the pop from a car- nival booth, or hearing the screams from people on the rides. With the 1975 money crunch, the rides sometimes carried empty seats with the admission being fifty cents with a mer- chant ticket, sixty cents without it. At 12:00 a. m. midnight Saturday, the rides and booths closed up to move on to another carnival. The streets were cleaned and all traces were removed. Yet, a carmel apple wrapper or a torn up ticket stub blowing in the cold autumn wind left memories that something had occurred in the small community town of LaGrange called Corn School. l... E.

Following a hectic week of Corn School, Laker fans jumped into the excitement of decorating a float or wear- ing crazy clothes for a Friday night Homecoming game against Garrett. A week before the homecoming game, each class decorated the halls with themes centering around Beat Railroad- ers. Student vandals tore down the crepe paper throughout the school day Monday which dampened spirit momentarily. Thursday evening entertainment con- sisted of powder-puff game, a tug-a- war, a tool through town in trucks, and a bonfire. A pep session on Friday afternoon raised more spirit with a skit, class competition yells, and a pep talk from coach Hoover. Following the pep session, the Lakeland student body assembled on the football field to spell LAKERS in eighty foot let- ters. Everything was tied together with the Friday night game as fans watched class- mates on the field and LHS alumni were reunited with old friendships. A dance following the game got Lakeland students involved in feet stomping and hand clap- ping. All in all, Lakeland students took action and got involved in Homecoming week with lots of pep and spirit to boast Laker morale for hopes of a Homecoming victory. i Spirit builds!

A. As students file onto the football field each class admires its float. Along with the Lakers, students worked long hours to prepare their float to raise spirit among the school. On October 10, as an activity to revise spirit for Homecoming, the Lakeland Journalism Department took on the job of spelling out the Lakers on the football field. The Lakers was spelled out of the student body composed of 650 students and teachers. Once again that they are community . Mr. James the Lakers. The Journalism students then staked and roped it off, to make things go more smoothly. After the pep session, students were led onto the field by classes and positioned by Mr. Liechty. Mr. Wayne Stopher took the aerial shot while Mr. Fred Strauss piloted the plane above the field. Although the Lakers was a great success, as you can tell by the picture, it wasn't enough for the Grids- men to win that night. Mr. Christian commented: LHS students have proved outstanding citizens of the Liechty drew the plans for B. Students left the pep session by classes and lined up on the football field according to plan. Mr. Leichty spaced each person two feet apan. I6 LaGrange County is home. ls LaGrange County such a Big Deal? It is for the 20,415 people that live, work, and sleep in the small communities and surrounding countryside. During an aver- age day of activity, the streets of the small towns come alive with cars and Amish buggies when merchants open the doors for the exchange of products and the warmth of friendly chatter. The one stop light of LaGrange County, in the town of LaGrange where Indiana State Road 9 and 20 cross, is always the center of attraction, for this is the place where all action originates. Trucks and trains connect the people of LaGrange county with the outside world, bringing in goods and leaving with others to help the factories and farmers live and prosper. From the business aspect, LaGrange county has a lot to offer with small shops, large factories, and even larger farms. But every once in awhile, townspeople venture to the larger cities about an hour or more away for a change of pace. From the pleasure aspect, LaGrange county residents can enjoy the friendly atmosphere of a small rural community and participate in the activities that cap- tivate the lives of many from bounding to the lake for fishing or to the hills for snowmobiling. LaGrange County - Big Deal? YOU BET! A. The LaGrange County Courthouse stands tall among the tulip trees in the courthouse square for view to travelers. This scenic structure dates back to the origin of LaGrange and surrounding communi- ues. -'W g nr-un A . , num . N :nun gage' 5i.,,.,,, ,,..

It is written on an ancient proverbial scroll that high school years are filled with Saturday night dates with that cer- tain someone, at the show or loe's Soda Shoppe. However, the more contempo- rary idea of group dating replaced this former misconception this year. In fact, few nights found any student in the com- pany of just one member of the opposite sex. Another new twist to the dating sys- tem concerned concerts at Notre Dame. Tiring of the coliseum in Fort Wayne. music fans journeyed to South Bend to see Chicago, Beach Boys, Jethro Tu11 and other performers. Students devoted most week nights to sports practices and jobs. But whether practice lasted until 6:00, or work until 8:00, Lakers almost always found time to have fun and to experience group dating with fellow classmates. B.

Betsy Clark drawings on murals encircled the gym floor. A spiral staircase touched the clouds in the center of the dancing floor meeting a silver ball. Throughout the evening, lights were reflected off of the mirrored ball and dia- monds dotted the dance floor. Couples danced to Rainbo. Refreshments were served throughout the evening with finger sandwiches and cake at the top of the menu. Reed Pranger and Lorre Benne were crowned King and Queen and Tom Potter sang With You to the royal couple. Mrs. Pat Booth and her husband led the Grand March. All couples were on the floor for the last dance, entitled Color My World. The prom drew to a close but the after-prom followed with the Mason Broth- ers providing the music. Boogie music, pizza, and coke were among the highlights drawing prom goers back for more. The enchanted evening came to a close at 3:00 Sunday morning, but it was a beginning for couples that headed for the dunes. For Lake- land and the juniors, prom night '76 came to an end just as peacefully as it started and May 8, 1976 was really a Stairway to Heaven after all. s- ix .HX . M XIVLLMK 1 N' B.

Count Dracula shields himself against bats' warts, holy water, and a cross flashed by Bill Strauss, Rusty Owens, and Jim Muhler. Such devices proved fatal for Lhe vampire. Juniors present Count Dracula. Bats flying through the audience, peo- ple disappearing, cigarettes lighting themselves, and doors opening on their own provided much of the excitement of this year's production of Count Dracula. Giving two performances for over five hundred people, cast and crew helped gross eight hundred and fifty dol- lars for the junior class. Advance ticket sales by the juniors totaled nearly four hundred dollars. This was the most suc- cessful play financially Lakeland has ever had. Led by Russell Rohrer, Steve McCormick, and Hank Platts, stage crew members had the set up two weeks before the performances, enabling the cast to get accustomed to it. Backstage help dur- ing the play included promptors on both sides of the stage and behind backdrops, make-up crew, and special effect men. C. Cast and crew: Row 1: Laura Conner.

With the increasing growth of boredom and stu- dent apathy, Lakers virtually lived for the weekends. Too restricted on weeknights with homework and curfews, Saturday Night was more than a song. Quick jaunts to the Pizza Hut once again highlighted game nights, with a few variations including Haufman House and Rundman's in Sturgis. Under the new management of Mr. Christian, the student body reacted enthusiastically to the frequent weekend dances. The only setback involved the guest pass ruling. Any person not pres- ently a student at Lakeland had to be reg- istered in the office prior to the dance and present a guest pass at the door. Although this didn't stop most kids from attending the dances, it put a damper on inviting guests. Another extremely popular activity involved trips to Pigtail Lane and other out of the way places just to relax and talk. Q Y... A.

The class of '76 faced its final year of high school with much anticipation of the days ahead. For some, college was to be the next step after high school. Filling out applications, taking aptitude tests, and making the grade seemed so impor- tant. Others, either employed or seeking employment, were more concerned with work and pay raises. No matter what the future would bring for the class of 1976, they were living now and participating together in the experience of high school. Anticipation about the future as well as memories of the past prevailed in the minds of the seniors as they closed the door to high school. Q4 .144 ak 1 V. 1 - ,Q lf,-ff 'Q f B.

While the seniors counted down their last high school games and the juniors battered themselves for the season, .Coach Warren Hoover and assistant Robert Emerick took the job of rebuilding the Lakers for this season's contests. While the defense showed outstanding efforts all season, the offense had difficulty getting drives together. The Lakers ended the season at three and seven overall, and two and three in the NECC conference. While the team started out with two big wins over Hamil- ton and Churubusco they faultered the next five games before beating Howe. !The Lakers then lost to West Noble before 'ending the season losing the milkcan to Prairie Heights, eight to six. It was a season of ups and downs with ythe loss to Central Noble being the turn- ting point of the players' confidence, stated Coach Hoover.

Seven qualify for sectional On February 2, many girls began con- ditioning for the spring track meets which began on April 13. For the first month of practice girls mainly performed warm-up exercises and ran laps through the halls to get into shape. Although the girls were permitted to run through the halls in the cold weather, they suffered from sore ankles and shin splints. When the weather grew warmer, the girls donned their sweatsuits and spikes and headed toward the track. It was a joyous relief to finally get to practice outside. Outside the girls in dashes could practice on starting blocks, the girls in the various field events could practice their throwing or jumping form, or the girls in long dis- tances could even run the cross country course. The twenty-two member team was very young this year with only one senior, six juniors, eight sophomores, and seven freshmen. Although the team was young, they performed better than many of the track teams had in the past few years. Lead by Donna Hedstrom, the team ran in seven home meets and five away meets. The girls also participated in the NECC conference tourney held at Central Noble and Sectional held at Goshen. Girls going to Sectional were: Deb Masters in the 100 and 220, Marla Egli in the 880 and long jump, and Kim Herron in the mile. Also Rhonda Taylor in the long jump, Holly Petersen in the 440, Sharon Jack in the 440, and Jenny Bordner in the hurdles. 4,-,.. -J, -' V . , ,,,..-fv f.-tv - 'sg 'V 5-. L K 1 N 'A is-.

At 6:45 each morning twenty-three stu- dents arrived at Lakeland to head for school. it 'vw From 8:00 to 10:50 students were trained in a specialized area before returning to Lake- land at 12:00. Specialized areas of study included medi- cal and clerical secretary, data processing, sewing, radio, television, building trades. The instructors of these areas were special- ized in their fields. We earn and learn on the job, is the main idea expressed by students in the ICE class. Members found themselves studying taxes, insurance, requirements, and job codes during the course of the year. Students kept weekly charts of gross pay, taxes, and net earnings throughout the year. If F.

The ECHO took on several changes under the management of six-year advisor James Keeslar and editors Jan Frederick, Monty Glick, Ed Lantis, and John Yunker. The format of the paper was transformed from eight pages to twelve. For the first time in the history of the ECHO, the staffers composed the paper themselves. Copy, ads, and headlines were made by the students, although the actual printing was done by the LaGrange Publishing Company. Mr. Keeslar expressed the hope of printing the newspaper at LHS next year. The jour- nalism department has all the materi- als, but it would need to combine forces with a graphic arts class, which Lakeland does not yet have . The department added on more machines to aid in composing the paper. A headliner, art waxer, and light table were purchased, and a composer was donated by the LaGrange Publishing Company. A new darkroom was furnished inside the journalism room to cut down on wasted time run- ning back and forth from the old dark- room to the journalism room. ECHO -133 A.

Unlike the other classes, plans for the Mirage began during the summer. For two weeks, editor Jean Strauss, and managing editor Tracy Gage treked to BSU for a journalism workshop where they received an award of excellence for the '74 Mirage. Along with the Echo and mass media classes, the staff journeyed to the South Bend Tribune and radio-TV station WSBT to learn about newspaper processing and broadcast communications . Under the advising of James Keeslar, the staff rallied to solicit over a hundred ads from area merchants, in addition to selling approximately 450 yearbooks. Funds from these ventures financed the 356500 yearbook and sent the two editors to the summer workshop. v-ws ii! - 5 sf: 6 I 'P' Y.

Seniors took titles in the tug-of- war, the class float, and the powder-puff football games. Na E. Count Down for seniors began after Christmas vacation and didn't end until ZERO days left. Seniors Sheri Bergman and Penny Brickley pause to reflect in front of '76 sign by senior hall. F. Senior quiz bowl team, James Iuday, Terry Wal- ter, Dave Vanderzeyde and Deanette Thomason won the title of quiz bowl champions beating out the freshman in 2nd round competition. On New Year's Eve, when the clock struck midnight, all of a sudden it was really 1976, and we found it hard to believe that the magic year was finally upon us. We, the class of 1976 would soon be splitting up. But what fine memories we would have to cherish. As frosh, we were an active class, many of us taking part in athletics, plays, and various clubs. Like any class we had our problems settling down, but by our sophomore year we started really getting down to work. Nothing could compare to our junior year. We had a prom to put on and noth- ing would stop us from making it the best ever. We called it, Country Sunshine. The prom really brought our class together as almost the whole class was at one Lime or another giving a helping hand. On a tiny dot on the map known as LaGrange, 140 people have become close friends throughout the years. On May 23, 1976 we graduated and went our separate ways. Just remember . . . we can look back at the beginning, but in the end, only hard work could make a success. SENIOR LIFE ' I 5 E THOMAS BURROUGHS - JI. Class Pres. . Soph. V-Pres.

Time - where did it go? It seems like nly yesterday we were innocent fresh- men seeking guidance from upper-class- men! Now as juniors we are awaiting our year as seniors. No longer do we run down the halls or laugh in corners with friends. As juniors we have learned to accept responsibility and leadership. Our junior year wasn't all fun and games, with the pressure of class rank we began to think of the future and college.

Pyramids became a favorite activity for classes at the Homecoming bon-fire. Sophomore classmates chant Xx'e're number one as a triple-decker pile on was formed. What does it mean to be a sophomore? To the class of 78 it meant many things. It means one less year to get out of school, not getting shoved into cramped lockers, receiving highly prized licenses, taking guff off of upperclassmen and giving it to the freshmen, sluffing off just a little more, and receiving long- awaited class rings. Being a sophomore was a time for stu- dents to come out of their shells and meet new students. It meant too young for wild parties, yet too old for hay-rides. It meant senior pals graduating and real- izing there were only two years left with their classmates. Yes, being a sophomore meant many things, but most of all, it simply meant being a Laker.

Well, first you enter into a new school. You get lost in the halls trying to find your classes. Upperclassmen harass and pick on you. You find new friends among the other freshmen and upperclassmen. As the year progresses your class becomes one. Together you build your float, com- pete in the tug-of-war, decorate your hall, participate in the quiz bowl, and produce a basketball team. The freshmen thus begin to prepare themselves for the three years ahead of them. A. Team members for the second place winners in the LHS quiz bowl were Kirk Frye, Holly Peterson. Michelle Gilmore, and Paul Soper. In the first round competition the freshmen defeated the juniors. B. After completion of the float, the freshman workers gathered for a group shot atop their wagon.

Teachers live P-Bm fast-paced lives. In between school, sports, and extra curricular activities, teachers at LHS find little or no time for themselves. Trying to become active with students seem to be a never ending job. Academically, they encourage students to make and reach their set goals. Giving helpful hints about college is always included in their lectures along with any- thing else that will make class more enjoyable for the students. Although the LHS faculty is always busy, they made time to discuss student's personal prob- lems in hopes of helping them out. W. Hoover S E.
