Q- 1299s l 3 STUFF - .. J,-A All This . . . Everyone sensed THE FEELING when viewing the one-story, brick building with the enrollment of 656 students known as the Home of the Lakers. However, THE FEELING couldn't totally be felt until the inside was seen, the inside of the school as well as the students. On the first day of school students raced in every direction each with his own feel- ings bottled up inside. Each was at a differ- ent point climbing the ladder of high school. On the first rung stood the freshman proud to be a part of LHS, and finally able to wear the columbia blue and red they had heard so much about from older brothers and sisters, yet lonely and lost, looking for a familiar face within the crowd. On the sec- ond rung, stood the sophomores . . . harass- ing the freshmen, reminiscing of the days not so long ago when it was they as the Victims of the upperclass practical jokes. On the third rung, stood the juniors de- tached from the other steps, only because the wanted to be. Although isolated from the others, the prom, class play, and maga- zine sales helped bring them a bond of unity they had never experienced before. The ju- niors developed a carefree attitude towards everyone else and concentrated primarily on their self-centered class. On the final rung of the high school ladder, stood the seniors . .. they thought they had seen it ally They had. They thought they knew it E: How did I ever get talked into this?

For the 12 preceeding years, they had strived to make it to the top. They resided there 264 days until May 17, 1981. On that one Sunday afternoon, they fell off the high school lad- der. Graduation started the seniors on a whole new ladder with different obstacles ahead, and a long climb to the top. This is our account of the year and all the feelings packaged within. Go ahead, jour- ney inside, and when you do you'll find ALL THIS . . .

Who needs to meet friends at Dee's for a coke after school? I always have potato chips too, and then I ruin my supper. Who needs to see the Conference- tourney? If they win that's all I'll hear about anyway. Who needs friends and a social life? To put is simply, we all do. Although teachers couldn't understand how assignments could be forgotten in the wake of extra-curricular activities, they weren't alone because parents too seemed unforgiving when suppers were missed and curfews broken. But can you really blame them? Afterall, who was it that took the keys without asking, who threatened to run away if they cou1dn't spend the entire Corn In a few years when I'm looking back ove my high school days, it won't be the tests and the homework I remember, but the special things-Homecoming, dances, my first date . . .

I know homework should be my first priority, but when the coach says Ten laps, then hit the show- ers, how can I say, I'm sorry coach, I can't, I have English to do? I understand my parents' and teachers' arguements, but I sure wish they'd at least TRY to understand that without friends and without things to keep me busy after school and on week- ends, my life wouldn't seem complete.

DIVISION -STUDENT LIFE 7 Caldwell Reigns As 1980 Queen One of the major highlights of Corn School week for Lakeland students was go- ing to watch the Queen Contest on Wednes- day and Thursday evenings. This year saw the largest field of contestants ever compet- ing, 17 in all, including Vicki Boss, Kim Caldwell, Doris Gruber, Diane Lutz, and Sandy Sturtz. The girls competed in a series of contests to determine the eventual win- ner including talent, bathing suit and per- sonality. Sandy Sturtz sang The Rose , winning the talent competion and over S75. Kim Caldwell won the overall contest, re- placing Michelle Prill as Miss Corn School, and receiving over S200 for her effort. The three girls who did not place received S15 gift certificates as well as a variety of gifts. Miss Caldwell summed it up by saying: It was really an honor being selected Queen. I enjoyed everything about the contest and it's an experience I'll never forget. -gn ' vs N Q with x 8-CORN SCHOOL A: Another Free Game! sophomores Bert Hartman and Todd Targgart play on the machines in the Penny Ar- cade.

Highway Robbery Once upon a time, in a village of very nice people, lived a strong, young man, lad- en with golden locks of hair and bright blue eyesg He possessed a glorious trust in his fellowman. Then, on a dark and ugly evening, a carni- val came to the village. Being young and curious, the man and his spouse to be, a pretty maiden of the sweetness and bliss, attended the festivities, searching the dark- ness for fun and amusement. But, alas, the man and his maiden fair were entangled in a web of serious gam- bling and were lured into losing vast sums of precious jewels, a fortune they could not afford to lose . . This was no fantasy to the students of Lakeland High School. This tale depicted the role of Corn School in student life, per- fectly. WE WERE RIPPED OFF!! I know the carnival rips the people off, but I believe they still enjoy it, stated an employee of Crown Amusements, who wished to stay anonymous. My game has an oddsmaker, just as all the other games here do. That's how we make our living. This is the type of person employed by Crown Amusements at the 75th annual Corn School. This is the type person which literally stole your friends and other stu- dents' money. These employees were re- sponsible for the largest loss in student money in recent years. I've been ripped-off, screamed sopho- more Dan Bradley, after stepping off the zipper We only went around about four times, only about 30 seconds worth. This is typical for most of the rides in the 1980 Corn School. In one incident, the Rock-O- Planes revolved 13 times in four minutes A: Bundles of bucks! Sophomore Bert Hartman tries his luck at the Mighty Payloadersf' but fails to win. 10-Cornschool and six times for shortly over 1V2 minutes. This same inconsistency was sighted in most of the other rides. Yet, each person paid the same amount for admission. The game known as Sweeptakes also took a great toll on Lakeland students. I spent about 359.50 and only got back about S1.25, said sophomore Paul Cross, That seems like a large profit for just 5 minutes worth of play. Imagine the profit this game rakes in per evening, it's almost like a license to steal. I lost about 175 dollars playing that game, stated a 30 year old Lagrange resi- dent. I just can't believe I let that man talk me into spending so much. He referred to a game in which you build up credits in order to supposedly win a number of prizes. For- tunately, no student from Lakeland lost as much as he. John Mills, a senior walked away a S66 loser though. They let you get so close to winning you just have to keep playing, I was paying five dollars a try in the end, he replied. No one in the 25 people interviewed after playing the game report- ed winning. I believe the majority of the students lost money at Corn School, Some lost entireg paychecks, said freshman Dean Miller. It's too bad we've got to be taken like this, it leaves our town looking bad. This was the general attitude of most of the students which attend Lakeland. . . . stripped of theirjewels, and angered, the couple stepped into the darkness never to return to the carnival. But as the crack of a whip sounded from a carriage of poor ori- gin, We shall never be stollen from again, this night serves me as a lesson well taught. QW! B: Tatoos?

Would you be shocked if you saw a stu- dent roaming through the halls in a full length Hefty garbage bag with Saran Wrap around his ankles, or perhaps if you saw a teacher in a purple pin-striped robe with orange fuzzy slippers, or maybe a 6'2 cross country runner in a complete scuba diving suit, flippers and all? It must be Homecom- ing again. This year tradition flared and spirit roused, but the week was plagued by one miship after another. Besides a number of juniors and seniors being involved in a seri- ous car accident and the juniors getting busted for stealing an outhouse from an Amish shool, the week went fairly Well, stated Student Council sponsor Mr. Rick Gregg. Dress-up days highlighted the school days including, Little Kiddie Day , Gar- bage Bag and Bandage Day and the tradi- tional Red, White and Blue Day on Fri- day. Along with the dress-up days came the ever-so-famous pie throw. The best dressed girl and guy from each day was allowed to throw a pie in the face of one of their favor- ite teachers. Juniors Lori Smith and Jim Geradot, along with Mrs. Gailis were chosen best dressed for Wednesday. Thursday, senior Diane Lutz, sophomore Steve Bowen, and Mr. Baumgartner received the honors, and finally on Friday, juniors Melis- sa Herron and Carl Schemerhorn and first year librarian Mrs. Redden were picked as the most spirited dressers. Besides pie throwing, there was also a tri- cycle race with Mr. Conrad dominating the court on his 13 bike. Seniors Kim Caldwell and Brian Troyer won the ballon pop, two- time champ Ronnie Hostetler won the Mr. Legg's competition, and Glenda Myers cap- tured the Miss Legg's contest, with Troy Sams and Claudia Coburn securing the ti- tles of runner-up. In the last minutes of the pep session varsity football coach Mr. Rog- er Griggs presented a spirited pep talk to the school body. The pep session ended with the fight song and shouts of roused Laker spirit. As the students filed hurriedly out of the gym, an air of excitement lingered behind them. The thought of the hours spent on floats, the tedious work applied to decorating vast hallways and the sight of the ripped-up re- mains the following day, made the student realize that the good times and the class unity gained, made the week somehow, all worthwhile. Homecoming-13 A: Push It! Jrs. A. Auter and T. Stork race to pop a balloon in a somewhat different way. B: Seconds Please! Srs. P. Brickley, K. Caldwell and C. Haviland serve pizza at the first annual Pizza Bash. Homecoming '80 . . . Going, Going, Gone! Traditions whether old or new, good or bad, are the backbone of Homecoming. This year two new traditions were started at Lakeland, the Mirage auction and the Stu- dent Council pizza bash. In years past, even- ing Homecoming activities were held on Thursday and Friday. But, Wednesday night the cafeteria was the scene of the offi- cial kick-off of Homecoming. In order to raise money for soaring pho- tography costs, the Mirage and photogra- phy staffs combined to put on Lakeland's first auction. From the beginning of the school year students donated everything from old Bobby Sherman albums to ragged, beat up tennis shoes. Items were sold from 101: for a toaster to S65 for a gas-powered chain saw. After nearly an hour and a half of auctioning, the 14-Homecoming last item was sold. The auction turned out be a financial success, Yet we were disap- pointed in the student support of the event. The auction was designed with students in mind but only five bidding students of 656 attended, stated Mirage sponsor Mr. James Keeslar. Coinciding with the Mirage auction was the first annual Homecoming pizza bash. Student Council members worked diligent- ly cleaning tables, selling tickets, and cook- ing pizza from early afternoon to late even- ing. The tickets were sold for 31.50 in ad- vance with most of the dedicated buyers at the auction bidding and eating simulta- neously. Overall, Wednesday night proved to be a startling success with hopes of a tradition to be carried out in years to come. C: Look At Those Beanlties! The cheerleaderfs walked D3 Check It Out!

Homecoming-15 Caldwell crowned queen as . . Homecoming Flares!! With participation at its peak, homecom- ing supplied fun and entertainment not only during the in-school activities but also for Thursday and Friday night. These nights provided competition between classes as well as individuals while striving for victo- ry in such events as the powder puff, tug-of- war, floats, cheerleading competitions, and King and Queen contests. They also includ- ed special events such as the fireworks and dance which helped make homecoming spe- cial. Although the teams were tough, the ju- niors dominated most of Thursday night by first winning the powder puff game over the sophomores with a final score of 9-7, then winning the tug-of-war over the sen- iors. By hamming it up, the freshman guys, however, managed to chalk up one for their class by winning the cheerleading competi- tion. A contrast to the queen contest was the king contest that followed the powder puff game. Decided by the amount of money rather than the amount of votes received by the students, senior Trent Curtis reigned over classmates Scott Sites and Brian Troyer with an accumilated sum of 84200. Friday night proved to be a success along with Thursday night despite the 19-6 loss of the football team. Although disappointed with the defeat, first year coach Roger Griggs commented Our young team played with enthusiasm and showed a great deal of improvement over the past few weeks. The Booster Club's half-time fireworks show in- spired the fans as well as the coaches and players. Half-time was a continuous flow of activ- ity, beginning with the parade of the class floats. Each class entered a float and after an anxious wait the juniors and seniors were announced as co-winners. The queen contest followed as the contestants and the courts were paraded around the field in the float built especially for the event by the Student Council. Senior Kim Caldwell, es- corted by Brian Troyer, was named Home- coming Queen of 1980-81 over contestants Anne Brady and Natalie Miller. Arranged by Dwuane Targgart and spon- sered by the Booster Club, the fireworks, set off at half-time, added excitement and flair to the traditional half-time activities. Athletic director John Stork commented, We've gotten better comments on the fire- works than any other event throughout homecoming. It was a pleasant surprise for everyone and created a lot of enthusiasm. After the big game, hoarse and partially frozen fans attended a special dance spon- sored by the student council and featuring the Magic Company band. Student Coun- cil President Scott Sites stated, We had the biggest turnout we've had in the last 5 years which made it a great financial suc- cess. lt was one of the best dances we've sponsored and I think everyone really en- joyed himself.

Speech What are the two words? , the question was asked in a hushed, expectant, voice. The mass of huddled, hand-holding high school speakers throw back their heads and hollar, QUIET CONFIDENCE These two words were the speech team's motto as well as their goal, as forensic coach Jim Garver explained, We adopted this phrase because we felt that if our kids had confidence in their own abilities without be- ing too smug, we would have the perfect speech team, so this little phrase really per- sonifies our outlook. The team, in it's second year, collected 16 trophies and plaques and over 100 ribbons with a record 50 members. Because the majority of the speech meets were in Ft. Wayne and South Bend, the bus rides were long, snore-ridden, and manned and maneuvered by devoted Sally Conrad. After an extremely successful year that placed the Lakeland speakers among the most elite in the northeast, the Lakers man- aged to take 7 members on to regional com- petition. But the speech team didn't limit itself to speech meets. They expanded their program, sending talented individuals to other contests too: Placing in these contests were super-seniors Peggy Conrad, Jeff Slat- tery, and Alan Targgart. As if this weren't enough, the speakers managed to have practices weekly, month- ly pep-sessions at the Garver's, a bowling bash, an overnight trip to the state meet in Indianapolis, and a year end awards ban- quet. The speech team had a terribly success- ful, terribly emotional year, based on re- spect, admiration, earing, and a certain quality know as quiet confidence which all members now possess. Mr. Garver summed up the year by say- ing, Our growth and success this year has been incredible. One of the neatest things is the number of kids we involved-over 50. I think the tradition we have built in the last two years will continue to grow. K --..,.,,M Au .2 - ' , ,,.N .. 44,25 - -,.. 'f 1-'l--.- f .L A: 1980-81 SPEECH TEAM-lst row L-R-K. Stroup, D.

AT ANN ARBOR- Barb Boyd is the only high school student in the coun- try who has ever attempted translating nearly 100 Lat- in inscriptions. Her study took place at the Kelsey Museum at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. First Independent Study Barb Boyd, a Lakeland senior and Latin Major, embarked upon a trip that carried her back in time. This trip wasn't in a time machine, but in a car up to the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. The University has one of the largest collections of ancient Ro- man inscriptions in the country, and be- cause Barb plans to major in the classics, this excursion provided her with valuable experience as well as an excellent record. Although many students have outside in- terests, the majority do not pursue theirs as ardently as Barb, who opted to begin an independent study of ancient inscriptions at the University. Her study, which was the first of it's kind undertaken at Lakeland, provided her with a chance to translate the artifacts and prepare a presentation with the help of Bill Prueter, her instructor, for Mr. Christian, family members, and officials from her chosen college. It was a learning experience that I wouldn't have traded for anything. I had fun while preparing myself for the future and because I was on my own and responsi- ble for the amount of work I completed, I feel that I am now more mature and respon- sible. Concluded Barb.

Empathy Tradition has it that the senior class play should be a comedy, However, this year the senior class broke this tradition by produc- ing Flowers For Algernon. James Garver, director of the play, gave his rea- sons for selecting a serious play instead of the traditional comedy. For one thing I have never produced a serious play and I felt we owed the community something dif- ferent. At first there was quite a bit of oppo- sition from the students and the communi- tyg They said, 'Oh, no! Not a serious play! How boringl' But from the audiences' reac- tions and the standing ovations, no one left feeling that the play had been boring. Flowers For Algernon , set in New York, was a story of a retarded man aban- doned by his family. Charlie Gordon fScott Sites! became a genius because of an opera- tion, Algernon a mouse, the only other liv- ing creature surviving the operation, also became a genius. But soon a flaw was found in the operation, Charlie and Algernon were slowly losing their mentality. The rest of the story told about Charlies' struggle to find his family before it was too late. Flowers For Algernon's profit exceed- ed S500 and was performed in front of an audience of approximately 450 students and adults. The touching scenes from the play had the audience and cast members in tears. The dramatic performances of the cast was overwhelming. lt was also very touch- ing, especially at the end when Algernon died, stated senior Kathy Hess. The play was difficult for the students to perform be- cause of the enormous amount of lines to be memorized. The entire cast worked day and night trying to learn their lines, stated students director Mechele Brewer. The play held a special place in the hearts of all the cast members. Sometimes we messed around a lot, and we all had a lot of fun, but when it came closer to opening night we all pulled together to make this the most dramatic play Lakeland has ever produced, stated senior Sandy Sturtz. Jim Garver, director of Flowers For Al- gernon said, I have been directing plays for five years and have produced ten plays. This was the first time I've ever received a standing ovation both nightsg It really gave us a feeling of accomplishment. All the seniors that participated in the play agreed that it was something special. They felt the long hours and hard work were worth it when they received a standing ovation, The play has brought a closeness to the senior class that they never thought possible. We realized it was the last time we would ever be on stage together as a class stated sen- ior Kathryn Kirk, and that in itself makes it all seem worth it. D: Like this?

Within the course of a lifetime, people tend to form a false security by hiding themselves behind walls. The students of Lakeland High School are guaranteed four years of freedom somewhere beyond these walls. Providing students with a chance to ex- pand their knowledge while becoming in- volved with other aspects of school life, were ten clubs ranging from astronomy to ski club. Because of the wide variety of clubs, there was sure to be one to interest each student. Lakeland clubs included, Latin, Spanish, Ski, Lettermans, Astronomy, Candys- tripers, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Future Farmers of America, art club, and Girls Athletic Association. These organizations held a number of functions and events, throughout the year. From selling carmel corn at Corn School, to holding raffles, to painting shop room mu- rals. Several clubs also took trips during the year, ski club went to Cannonsburg Michi- gan, Latin club Went to the Museum of Sci- ence and Industry in Chicago, and the Let- terman's club went to a football game at Purdue. Although most clubs were engaged in a variety of activities, the foundation on which all clubs were based and from which all ideas came was the weekly or monthly meetings. This was where club members spent most of their out of school and after practice time. Stated one sponsor: Clubs play an active role in the lives of many kids. They teach them how to get along with others as their individuality grows and they begin to ma- ture socially. I feel that these clubs are more than extra-curricular activities, they are the keys to the development of our stu- dents. affix-.1'L' 4 'W'li , Q xl O it r,'9'f E: Where's the change box?

Taking the audience back in time, the ju- niors presented A Double-Bill at the Old- time Playhouse which consisted of two old-fashioned melo-dramas plus various skits and acts in between. The audience was served free popcorn and 250 pop through- out intermission by play cast members dressed as old-time bartenders which helped in setting the mood for those roaring 2O's, the performance took place in the cafe- teria rather than the auditorium which kept the audience in closer contact with per- formers and in a more relaxed mood. Direc- tor James Garver commented, The junior play marked several firsts in LHS theater. We ran in three nightsg We did the show in the cafeteriag And it involved more kids than most of our plays have. I think it was a good show because it fulfilled two impor- tant requirements, it was a learning exper- ience and it was fun. The first play was called True Blue and Trusted and contained the traditional vil- lian, hero, and heroine characterized in all melodramas. Following the first play was Curse You J ack Dalton which had a more complicated plot and was also twice as long. Like the first, however, it also contained a villain, hero, and heroine. The shows before and inbetween the plays included such acts as a burlesque show, a knife thrower, clowns and jugglers, a dancing bear and an Indian rain dance. , Although the play was performed by the juniors, it wouldn't have been a success without the participation of the audience which totaled almost 500 in a three night run. Booing and hissing could be heard throughout the school as soon as the vicious and vile villain made his entrance. Clapping and cheering could be heard when the vir- tuous hero and heroine made their appear- ance. Not only did this participation make the play more interesting but also boosted the moral of the performers. Junior Lorrie Atwater concluded by say- ing We put in a lot of hours and a lot of hard work, but the closeness that developed between all the juniors those few weeks to- gether and the success of the play made it all worth it. at il g I .Q its if if D.

Even when 31-41-26 constantly pouts be- cause she doesn't have anyone assigned to her, and when 418 in the blue hall gets tired of being hit, slammed and cursed at and de- cides the only thing left to do is jam, we'll just have to keep tolerating each other.

For ational Honor Society As the doors of Lake- land High School first opened, the prestige of Na- tional Honor Society also began. N.H.S. is a nation- ally a credited organiza- tion, with a large member- ship across the country. Rigid scholastic and ex- tra-curricular require- ments are enforced to in- sure the entrance of 'top- notch' students only. N.H.S. is a special associ- ation, for some special peo- ple. What makes the soci- ety and the club unique is that the members are se- lected by the faculty as the most outstanding all- around people in the build- ing, sponsor Mike Wade stated. It's a real honor, and one they deserve, he added. As a sophomore a grade point average of 3.8 is re- quired. As a junior 3.5 and finally, as a senior, a grade point average of 3.2 is re- quired. This year, 9 new members were inducted, which increased the size of the group to 23 indivi- duals. Third year sponsor Mike Wade lead the group, with assistance of T. Coo- per President, P. Brickley V. Pres., S. Grossman and K. Kirk Treas., and K. Caldwell Sec. Along with attaining a high G.P.A., N.H.S. mem- bers must also participate in extra-curricular activi- ties and be actively in- volved in the community. This year, 9 new members inducted, which increased the size of the group to 23 individuals. This year, under the auspices of N.H.S. the first annual Laker Apprecia- tion Day was held, along with several other activi- ties including the Christ- mas Dance and the 1981 Drug Awareness Seminar. .

For Fellow Lakers When the doors of Lake- land High School finally close, whether in 1982 or the year 2000, the vast le- gion of past student coun- cil members will stand si- lently in reverence. The hours of work, year after year, will not go unforgot- ten. The memories, how- ever, will in the end, all be pleasant recollections of friends united in one goalg improving student life at L.H.S. This past year was no exception. Twenty-eight students from all four grade levels, joined to- gether as the Lakeland High School Student Council. Under the direc- tion of sponsor Rick Gregg and the leadership of president Scott Sites, the council worked from Au- gust to July organizing school and community ac- tivities. In late July the four offi- cers attended Leadership Camp at Indiana Universi- ty in Bloomington. At the camp, the officers were taught basic human rela- tions. As soon as the offi- cers returned they were meeting with administra- tion and carefully plan- ning out the next school year. At the start of the year, the council campaigned a Welcome Back Lakers attitude be hanging ban- ners and delivering com- plimentary apples to the teachers. The council also sponsored the fairest dance of the year, held after the Churubusco game. Later in the year, the council arranged for the presentation of several convocations including the very poignant, Hard Times. As in the past, the coun- cil was responsible for the organization of Homecom- ing. With the advent of the Bash be a First Annual Pizza the week proved to financial success. Al- though the week was filled with several mis- haps, as a whole the week was enjoyed by eeryone. When asked about Home- coming jr. Andy Auter stated, Even though we spent a lot of time with paint brushes in our hands, we still had a pretty good time. Overall, the student council worked as a team, stated member Michelle Slattery, she added, We got our jobs done, and still enjoyed what we were do- ing. 'xx - 4. X ,. f .

Her speech is listed below. ,ia ff,- 1 in Members of the school board, Su- perintendent Auter, Mr. Christian, faculty, students, and guests We, as the graduating Class of 1981, are here today for a final farewell to Lakeland High School. To us, this school has not only been a place in which, to learn, but also a place in which to grow. We entered Lakeland four years ago as seperate individuals, searching for a place where each of us could belong. From then until now, the experiences we have shared have united us. As freshman, while decorating hall- ways and floats for homecoming, we realized our class was able to work together and accomplish our goals. Our unity was increased as we re- ceived our class rings and drivers li- censes during our sophomore year. By the time we were juniors, our coopera- tion with each other enabled us to ac- complish various tasks. Many stu- dents successfully performed in the junior play The Speakeasy. By set- ting the school record for magazine sales, we also raised enough money to create an exceptional prom for the seniors of 1980. This year, the bonds between us have grown even stron- ger. Many Seniors participated in Flowers for Algernon as the class play. We also chose our class flower, colors, and motto. Recently seniors were honored by an excellent prom given by the juniors. As we continued to grow as a class, we also grew as individuals. We have been planning for life after gradu- ation, but never realized the day would arrive so quickly. Starting to- morrow, we are no longer high school students. The senior class motto is Success comes from daring to be- gin. We have been planning for the future but now it is time for us to pur- sue our goals. Life is not for spectators. Theodore Roosevelt once said. It is the critic that counts . . . The credit belongs to the man who is actu- ally in the arena . . . who strives vio- lently, Who errors and often comes up short again and again . . . Who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timed souls who know niether victory noe de- feat. No one expects us to proceed through our lives with no mistakes. The important asset we need to have, though, is the determination to con- tinue toward our goals. How do we know if we have become successful? Many people measure suc- cess by the amount of money one has. Yet, just because a man is not wealthy he is not successful. A person needs to be happy and live a contented life to be successful. He also has much self- respect, and he is proud of his life. As we pursue our happiness and success, we also must remember to- day. This article, written by Dennis Johnson, explains. That as you live each day, remember that the best thing to give your enemy is forgive- ness, to an employer, service: to an opponent, tolerenceg give your heart to friendg revere your father and mother and so conduct yourself that they will always be proud of you, give to yourself the priceless heritage of self-respect, and finally, give charity and understanding to all men. Many people deserve credit for our being here today. Administrators, teacher, coaches, friends, parents, and teachers, and ourselves. Each contri- buted in a different way. The rewards we recieved are ceremonies and par- ties, but more importantly, the sense of accomplishment. I am sure the members of the graduating class of 1981 will carry memories of friends and experiences at Lakeland High School with them forever. Whatever each decides to do, he must realize that Success comes from daring to begin. unli ' fig US. -. B: A winner is one who keeps trying.

Brai rains I'3.1I1S I CADEMIC DI S ON Why do most seniors finish up their term papers at 3 a.m. on the day they're due? Why do juniors party until dawn the day of the S.A.T.? What possesses sophomores to start studying for geometry finals during the preceeding lunch hour? And finally why do freshmen stay up half the night discussing upper class- men when their vocab words need re- viewing? ' Actually, no one really knows, least of all the teachers. All students can recall at least one time in their high school careers when a usual- ly placid teacher has thrown his arms up in despair and cried out, Why me? But the teachers aren't free from this same dulling of the senses that afflicts students of all ages either: After all, how many teachers do you know that hand back tests so late you don't even remem- ber taking the test? . Although most students, and teachers for that matter, throw caution to the wind on occasion and indulge in the fine art of procrastination. After all, life would get pretty dull if you handed in every assignment on time, aced every test, and completed every pro- ject ahead of schedule. And although teachers often dream of the perfect class, most would go nuts after a week of 10092's on all papers of unanimous agree- ment that a test would indeed be nice, and the assured nod of heads when the question, Do you understand? is asked. Every school whether large or small, public or private, is made up of a variety of students, each with his or her own academic style. To some, studying means 3 hours of vigorous research, to others, a quick review of notes rates a confident, Yeah, I studied, when asked. And to still others, the word study is enough to cause a severe headache and a cold sweat to break out. But can you real- ly blame the students these days for their outragious unstudiousness? When you consider the alternatives to studying, basketball practice, sleeping, the late late late show, clubs, shopping, part-time jobs and going to see box-office smashes, is it any wonder that they remember home- work at all? A: A reflection of the past. Within each copy of the 16 volumne set of yearbooks lie the highlights, dis- appointments and traditions that make LHS truely unique. ACADEMIC DIVISION 45 Buy This Assignment For 50,000 With twenty-one stu- dents divided into two shifts of three hours each, the Building Trades classes completed their 1980-81 project, a house lo- cated on Old 9 next to last year's house. According to sponsor Jack Bowzer, it cost approximately 345,000 to build and is ex- pected to sell for about 350,000 Any extra money is put back into the fund for the following year. The program, in its fourth year, was designed to pro- vide an alternative to those students more archi- tecturally inclined, and as an out of class learning ex- perience. Building Trades students learned many valuable carpentry skills ranging from dry walling to roofing, plumbing, fur- nace work, cementing, in- sulation, electrical work and landscaping. Junior Jim Duty explained, I joined Building Trades be- cause I think it's important to get an education in school as well as out of school and this class gave me a chance to learn things I'd never learn through a text book. Members of the Building Trades classes included: Dave Howser, Frank Gib- son, Clark Griffin, Mike Kime, Ricky Quick, Mike Green, Cary Dearduff, Willard Lackey, Pat Gray, Jim Duty, Mark McClish, Matt Combs, Dan Schmidt, Mike Lacey, Jay Schrock, Pat Pearson, Bill Gay- heart, Richard Wilson, Brackie Fugate, Greg Hall, Ernest Blowers. -x:ss.isur: -- '- ' - W - AQ..-P ill' .3548 7 y' A: Where Should I Put This One?

The Teachers Advisory Program was started in the 1978-79 school year. It was developed so that the students of Lakeland could have an adult to re- late to, to have a close re- lationship with, and to have someone to talk to besides their buddies In the past year TAP has changed in several differ- ent ways. Instead of hav- ing a TAP class of entirely one grade level, they are now made up of the four classes combined. The rea- son for mixing the classes was to help each student get to know more people of a different rank. The students and facul- ty have different opinions on the subject of TAP. Some like it because it is something different than regular classesg It breaks up the monotony. Some say the class depends on the teacher and the stu- dents in it. The class will be interesting if they are willing to put something of themselves into it. Others feel that TAP needs more organization, that students and faculty members need to know exactly what they are expected to do. We need a specific program to go by, stated Mrs. An- spaugh. 48 TAP Some of the students and members felt that TAP classes should return to being arranged accord- ing to grade levels. Senior Kathryn Kirk commented, I think they should go back to having the classes arranged according to grade levels. I've been in the same TAP class for three years and I still don't know most of the kids. Having the classes ar- ranged according to levels gives the students a chance to get to know their fellow classmates better. Most of the students and faculty members agreed that TAP has it's good- points along with it's bad. TAP is not a studyhall or a homeroom. It is a time when students and teach- ers can discuss whatever comes to mind. TAP seems to have brought a close- ness between the students and teachersg there is a friendlier atmosphere. TAP has caught on in the past two years. It's had its ups and its downs but now it is considered as part of the schedule. It is by far not a perfect class, but with the students and fac- ulty members working to- gether something positive will always turn up. A: Todays anouncements!

TAP-49 A Worthwhile Job Opportunity . . Building For The Future Giving students an alter- native to the traditional classroom experience, Lakeland offerred the Health Occupations Edu- cation and Elkhart Area Career Center programs. These programs provided students with an applied education and a chance to train in their preferred fields. The student who be- gins the H.O.E. program learns the fundamentals of health aid from the work- ing point of view, not from a text book or classroom lecture, stated H.O.E. di- rector Mrs. Wilt. This provides the student with a Worthwhile job exper- ience as well as a basic background to continue in the health field. Currently, 19 H.O.E. stu- dents are employed at the LaGrange County Hospi- tal, Miller's Merry Manor, Dr. Pruitts in Topeka, and Dr. Denton's in LaGrange. These students attended school one-half day and their jobs the remaining A: Mr. Fix-it! Junior Scott Stew- art tries his hand on a complicat- ed piece of equipment during E.A.C.C. 50-HOE, EACC half day. The Elkhart Area Ca- reer Center offered the students an opportunity to gain a vocational educa- tion while still in high school. E.A.C.C. trained students in a broad variety of vocational interests ranging from auto body re- pair, food services, and key punch operation to sewing, tailoring, and commercial art. I believe E.A.C.C. is a good source of learning, replied junior Todd Litke. The student receives two years of instruction and immediately after gradu- ation is given a lucrative job opportunity. Todd at- tended E.A.C.C. for in- struction in technical drafting. Both students and teach- ers agreed that H.O.E. and E.A.C.C. gave the students of Lakeland High School a sizeable advantage in re- spective fields. Each of the programs have grown to become a popular part of our school's curriculum. li B: A nature hike? Senior Cathy Lapodot works part-time in a dentist's office on H.O.E.

HOE-EACC-51 Mr I.C.E is a Release To Reality Today, educational trends are turning more and more away from a col- lege education, and lean- ing more towards practical vocational experience. For that reason Lakeland High School has continued to of- fer for the sixth straight year the very successful I.C.E. program. This year the Interdisci- plinary Cooperative Edu- cation Program accepted 30 students. The majority of the students had var- ious reasons for applying to the program, but all rea- sons seemed valid. Some students needed extra money and enjoyed work- ing. Others hated the thought of school eight hours a day and I.C.E. pro- vided an escape. But in most circumstances, the students were interested in their jobs and became hard-working members of I.C.E. The students received three full credits a semes- ter and also gained a valu- able educational exper- ience. The I.C.E. program is good, on the job exper- ience that the student needs in the future. It is experience that the stu- dent acquires first hand and not from a text book, stated I.C.E. sponsor Jay Smith. The students held jobs ranging from secretaries to store clerks. I have a very interesting job that allows me to develop my skills as a secretary and also meet friendly, new people, stated senior Lisa Boyles who is employed as a personal secretary. Overall the value of such a program is indis- pensiblef' stated Guidance Conselor Patricia McKin- ney, A student can work and earn money, while gaining an insight into the business world.

Along with the march- ing band, comes the unfor- gettable Lakeland Stage Band. The stage band placed first at contest again this year. They per- formed at every home bas- ketball game, pep sessions, and concerts. Along with this they played for the Howe Military dance, and their own Farmers State Dance.

The Columbia Blue Notes, or Swing Choir, consisted of 36 members from all grade levels. The swing choir performed at a variety of events. Besides having their own concerts, they also performed at clubs, graduation and at the NISBOVA contests.

Where can you find the 7th lumber vertebrae of a squirrel, the grams of ben- quoil peroxide needed to mix up a lethal batch of Oxy 5, the number of words you can read per minute? These questions can all be answered in one of the many labs at Lake- land. Labs are set up by teachers to give students a chance to work and solve problems independently. It also demonstrates the correct way to use instru- ments such as micro- scopes, scalpels, disecting tools, and balances. The main classes that regular- ly have labs are biology, chemistry, physics, and special reading classes. Throughout the year students were relieved of daily textbook work by the variety of interesting things done in labs. Biol- ogy teacher Miss Headley had her first year students begin basic disecting with the sponge and frog. Her advanced class however, began the year by disect- ing the more complicated fetal pig. They continue to work on it throughout the year, studying the dif- ferent systems, stated Miss Headley. Physics teacher Mr. Wade on the other hand kept his classes interesting by building a generator and making electrical circuits. They also tested the sun's inten- sity for heat loss and gain, and built and tested rocket engines for power. Another type of lab was dedicated to special read- ing. This form represented a new approach to reading for students who needed to move at his own pace and at his own level, after taking diagnostic tests to determine reading levels. Students moved through material at their own pace and worked themselves up to higher levels. Chemistry teacher, Mr. Myers concluded by say- ing, I think that labs are important in that they re- lieve classroom boredom and tension. They also give students something to look forward to each week, and make the class more interesting. LABS 59 Lakeland senior puts . . . Poetry Into Motion The following selection is a poem written by Ken Kilgore, a senior at Lakeland. Ken has written over 50 poems with three of them in publication. Grandad's Fields Grandad's fields lie fallow now, Like forty years ago- The night that Grandad passed away, Just like the winter snow. Father worked the acres then Just as his sires had done, And when his time had come, he left The land to me, his son. Now, I sit on the stump of a hickory tree That father cut with axe in hand, Gazing on the empty fields- The living legacy of land. Where father bowed the fiddle And stirred the booted feet- Where Grandad cast his eyes upon The sweep of bending wheat. The barn that knew my childhood dreams Stands darkened and alone, And sadness stirs within me For days my soul has known: And though my youth may haunt me, izgx t' i-,g ,pr As it often does a man, With the pride my fathers cherished, I shall plant my Grandad's land.

Barrier Breakers One of today's problems is the pattern of isolation into which we as a country have fallen. This isolation has been due to our self- ishness towards other countries, both culturally and educationally. We Americans have created barriers depriving our- selves of successful cultur- al exchanges with neigh- boring allies. These bar- riers are born of distance and our own limitations in language communication. Only after removing these barriers can we fully real- ize the value of a second language. Through the use of it's foreign language program, Lakeland High School is doing it's part to weaken the language barriers in the world today. Learn- ing a second language can be helpful in many ways. In the beginning stages of learning, it gives an in- sight into the culture and way of life of others. In an indirect way, it helps this individual understand the structure of his own lan- guage. A person with a good working knowledge of a second language is highly sought after by bu- sinesses who employ groups or have businesses in the country of that par- ticular languagef' stated third year Spanish teacher David Anspaugh, Most importantly is the selfsa- AZ The Pantheon ls Located In . . . Latin instructor Bill Prueter 'instructs' his class in Latin. 64-FOREIGN LANGUAGES tisfaction an individual re- ceives after having helped or conversed with some- one else in that language. The feeling is warm and glowing. Nowadays, most col- leges require a minimum of two years of a foreign language for admission to the college. For the col- lege bound student a for- eign language is a must, however, a second lan- guage can be of great val- ue in every day life. Latin teacher Bill Prueter added to this by stating, Why take a classical language- Latin? Latin is the basis for English vocabulary and all romantic lan- guages. The potential for building English vocabu- lary is virtually unlimit- ed. He continued by of- fering the analogy that, Romans tackled the same proglems we dog What is a good life and how do we achieve it? Their answer can help us realize that machines are not our en- emies: Minds move this world, not mechanisms or technology. Although Latin and Spanish are only two of many various languages, the opportunity of acquir- ing the knowledge of a second language is at our disposal. It seems only to be the misfortune of the students to neglect taking such a worthwhile course. B: Mr. Anspaugh takes time out of his schedule to prepare for the oncoming wrestling season.

A 180 page book doesn't get written overnight, copy doesn't JUST get fi- nalized and pictures don't get developed with the wave of a magic wandg A good yearbook is no acci- dent. Not only are 190 class- room hours devoted to the preparation of the publica- tion, but also a week of summer camp, and hours upon hours of evening work sessions and time spent in readying the book for distribution. With the largest staff in the past 10 years, the many positions were easily filled. True, the book is composed of stories and pictures but behind the scenes lie 18 dedicated MIRAGERS working in channels to make sure those jobs are completed. Pictures, being the main attraction in the book, tended to be the main con- cern. For that reason 7 photographers shot over 5,000 pictures, and devel- oped, stopped, fixed, and squeegeed over 1,600 of those. Approximately 1,500 ft. of film was used throughout the year. Stories, which put the events, attractions, occa- sions and emotions, into print, gave the book those facts, figures, and feelings that will always be cher- ished. For that reason 7 writers working through three channels of finaliza- tion, produced some 85 stories and wrote over 1,000 captions. Consider- ing each story was reject- ed on an average of 3 times, these writers man- aged to scribble out over 250 stories in the school year. Although the pictures andthe stories seemed to be the entire book, With- out 3 other key factors the MIRAGE couldn't be com- pleted. In the business end there were two students trained in handling the money matters. Their job consisted of handling the advertising as well as book sales. Another inside job was designing lay-outsg the style of the book. Ev- ery page seen in this book had to first be drawn by hand. The last channel be- fore finalization was typ- ing. In order to have any story or caption printed it had to first be typed. It seems that each year the staff gets better, but it's because they learn how to step around the pit- falls of the year before. It seems we've had the tal- ent the last 4 or 5 years, but this year I can honest- ly say, we've got what it takes to organize this tal- ent, stated Mirage spon- sor James Keeslar.

The divider flew up, as the old concession stand was transformed into the Echo room. The Echo be- gan it's year with sponsor Kristi Gailis shouting through the room, Get your tails moving, we've got a deadline to meet. The staff published the Echo sixteen times during the year with a very limit- ed budget. The first task of the Echo staff was to sell advertising to local busin- esses to finance the costs of the paper. The staff sold ads in a number of sur- rounding communities in- cluding Kendallville, Stur- gis and Orland. Skipping classes for two days the staff roamed throughout the county. At the end of the two days the staff ac- cumulated a total of nearly 31400, which was still a se- mester short of their goal. The talents of second year editor-in-chief Laura Mireley and businesbusi- ness manager Joan Heign made up the backbone of the staff. As editor, Lau- ra's main concern was having the paper ready to be sold every other Friday during lunch. But that, by far, was her easiest job. Laura was also in charge of assigning stories, print- ing copy, and writing the editorial page. Along with Laura and Joan the remainder of the staff was talented and effi- cient. The reporters, being mainly first year, wrote as if they had years of exper- ience, Being a reporter on the Echo provides an op- portunity for me to study problems in depth and talk with administration, teachers, and students about important con- cerns, stated first year re- porter Kent Schmidt. The year proved suc- cessful and several inno- vative ideas were applied to the paper, including a magazine style format, and a lowering to a 156: charge for the paper. A1- though the hours of work spent could not be totalled, editor Laura Mireley stat- ed, There were times when the staff was torn apart and we were all ready to give up, but de- spite the rough times, my final year as editor was an experience to remember.

Required Courses The Indiana state law reads in section 1: In or- der to be graduated from a four-year high school, a pupil shall have completed a minimum of sixteen units 132 creditsl of high school work in various fields. The units shall be so arranged that the student will receive a broad gener- al education . . . Lakeland High School coincides with these regulations, and also sets the standards higher. Lakeland requires two additional credits as a result of the requisite of U.S. History. The school also requires the instruc- tion of two extra semes- ters of physical education. These additional courses, plus English, Government, Economics, Mathematics, Health 85 Safety, and a lab- oratory science constitute the bulk of our schools' subject matter and form the backbone of the U34 credit system. Most of the students dis- like the schools confine- ment in the selection of courses. Yet, junior Mi- chelle Slattery said, I be- lieve required courses are important to the schools' curriculum. With them, students who would not ordinarily use the opportu- nity to learn, will recieve a good high school educa- tion. One student offered an alternative plan.

Three years of English and laboratory science is not needed by someone not preparing for admittance to a college. The majority of the teachers and administra- tors agreed with Mr. Greggs' ideas. Students are more attentive and more interested in elective courses because they are subjects they chose to take. The students realize the fact that they must pass required courses, and with this pressure forced upon 72-ACADEMICS them they do so with mini- mal effort. Principal, W. Beau Christian stated, Students accept the fact that certain courses are re- quired and must be taken. I don't believe students try any harder in these sub- jects. Regardless of the view- point, our state laws leave the students of L.H.S. with little choice. Even though We dislike required courses we must attend them as well as the elec- tive classes.

Somewhere within each precarious life- time, the inner soul cries out for fame, but alas some are destined to fall behind the backdrop of a stronger few, while others are destined to become those who are the strong, who are the victorious, and who stand alone, fists clenched against the sky, as champions. The 1981 Sectional Cham- pionship Team Was composed of souls who are of this rare breed, and of this quality . . . Although the official basketball season began on November 15th, a great deal of time and hard work went in during the spring, summer and fall to condition bodies and sharpen skills in preperation for the im- pending season. For most Lakeland ball players it began as soon as school was out and the park season began. It wasn't un- common for team hopefuls to spend three or four hours at a time scrimaging with others or just shooting alone. Along with working on fundamental skills, players also condi- tioned themselves physically by perform- ing such chores as running, jumping rope, and lifting weights. The work put in by the players was not in vaing however, in that all three teams had winning seasons. The freshman team under the coaching of James Patrick received the title of The Close Game Kids, winning six games by five points or less and winning three in H4 The Lakers defeated East Noble 50-47.

Stated Coach Gregg, We had a rewarding year in terms of players improving and learning basketball. We were successful, game wise, but more importantly, most of our players are now ready for varsity com- petition. The varsity team, directed by 8th year head coach William Leiter, ended the sea- son with a record of 16-8. At one time they possesed a record of 6-7, but then rattled off seven wins in a row, gaining a full head of steam going into the Sectional. The Lakers then rolled past Howe and East Noble en route to the championship game where they socked arch rival Fairfield who had beaten them twice during the season. The Sectional Championship was the second in two years and the fourth in five years. Sen- iors John Gallagher and Andy Seman led the team throughout the season each with scoring averages of approximately 16 points per game. Both made All Conference Team, and John broke the single game scoring re- cord with 41 points against Fremont. Senior Brian Troyer summed up the year by say- ing, Winning the Sectional was a great re- ward for all the time and effort the team put in throughout the year, Also, I believe that all of the summer hours the team put in are a major factor in determining our success this year.

With the beginning of any sport comes long hours of practice and a lot of desire. This was especially true with the Varsity Volleyball team who after losing the first two games, ended the season with a 9-6 win- ning record. Although the team didn't get to claim the N.E.C.C. title, they did claim a 5-3 conference title. First year coach Mrs. Ka- ren Frey commented, Despite the six losses we had, we were satisfied with the season. All the games were close and we were never out of the competition. We had to play a lot under pressure and I felt that everyone handled the pressure well. Along with team victories came individ- ual victories as well. Seniors Kathy Bowl- ing and Kelly Gerardot were both named All Conference with junior Kelly McKowen receiving honorable mention. An election at the end of the year by the team members voted Kelly Gerardot as best pass- er, Kathy Bowling as the best spiker, Kelly McKowen with the most serving aces and Karla Growcock as the best setter.

Lady Lakers Are Champs The 1980-81 Girls Track Team completed a very successful season ending 11 and 0. For the second year in a row the Lady Lakers took the N.E.C.C. meet. Twelve of the girls continued on to sectional where only two advanced to regional. Senior Tere- sa Cooper, who was voted most valuable by her teammates, placed 7th at Regional in the shot put, while sophomore Lori Gap- pinger finished 5th in her heat in the 100 Meter Dash. The girls started out the season with a few difficulties, but as the season pro- gressed perfection became effident. The girls swept many events that many teams found hard to beat. Events such as the 800 Meter Run, 200 Meter Run, 400 Meter Run and the Relays. Many school records were broken this season. A new event that was added this year was the 1600 Meter Relay. The Lady Lakers had one of the fastest times in the Conference. Other teams found this event very hard to beat. Fourth year Varsity Coach Laurie Herl summed up the season by saying, We started out slow but as the season pro- gressed the girls gained confidence and we started working together and made our- selves stronger as a team. Junior miler Missy Herron added to that by saying, We really had a great season this year but it took a lot of determination and a lot of hard work to go as far as we did. The team did a super job encouraging each other which made the hard work seem easier. And as a team I feel we were really close. C: Umphhh . . .

Fighting Unit Despite the 4-6 record, our players still felt they were winners, stated first year football coach Roger Griggs. We finished the season very strongly and were competi- tive in every contest. The Lakers paraded their competitive spirits while laying West Noble to rest late in the season, 14-0. They then pryed the milk can from the clutches of Prairie Heights for the season's finale, 7-6. The sea- son began with two impressive victories against Hamilton and Churubusco. Head coach Roger Griggs, a new element to Lakeland football, attended Penn High School and then graduated from Indiana State University in 1973. He received his master's degree in 1979 from Indiana Uni- versity. In ten years of coaching, he has and one All-Star and has compiled a 45-34 record. The Lakers rounded out the season aver- aging 216 yards offensively per game only relinquishing 118 points in the entire sea- son. Max Pfenning made conference lead- ing 34 receptions throughout the seasong Pat Conley led in kicking, averaging 37.6 yards per kickg Tim Hannon led the N.E.C.C. in tackles. The Bloomington Harold named Pfen- ning and Hannon to their 1980 all-state list. They were joined by Matt Combs as confer- ence and area standouts.

The Lakeland Gymnastics Team sprung into action this November by competing on all three levels and having the four fresh- man go all round. The girls put forth a great deal of effort as they put in many long, un- ending hours of practice. They suffered from pulled muscles and bruises, but still their dedication shone through as they pulled it all together before meets to show off their poise and skill. The ladies finished out their season with a beginning record of 2-5, Intermediate had a record of 4-5 and the Optional had a 6-3 record. During the N.E.C.C. meet the Optional Team finished first, the Intermediate placed third and the Beginning placed second. The Lakeland Squad placed five of its members on the All Conference Team: Jenny Schrock, Renee Oesch, Kelly McKowen, Rosita Egli, Paula Stutzman.

Sendr leads Grapplers through . Rebuilding Season Running in the halls, passing up lunches to meet weight, enduring unbearable prac- tices after school, sore muscles and pain were all very much a part of reality to the Lakeland Grapplers. First year coach David Anspaugh com- pleted his season with a record of 6-4. Early in the season youth and inexperience hurt the squad, with only one returning senior, Emery Geaugh. Mr. Anspaugh considered this a season of rebuilding. He commented, We were very young, but considering our youth we did very well. This year the Grapplers placed 2nd in the N.E.C.C. and also finished 2nd in Sectional behind Prairie Heights, sending 8 wrestlers on to Regional. These included: Tim Hannon, Tyler Huffna- gle, Matt Combs, Emery Geaugh, Tom Mill- er, Jim Johnson, Tim Schrock, and Lyle Nisley. They were in the Goshen and Northwood Tournaments where they fin- 96-WRESTLING ished 4th in both. Third year Letterman Matt Combs was the only Lakeland wrestler to win all his regular season matches. Matt advanced to regional where his perfect record came to a close with a 4-3 loss, Junior Matt Combs stated, Everyone tried hard and did a good job throughout the year, but we were just too young to match the strength of the older area teams. The Junior Varsity squad also had a suc- cessful season with many wrestlers that started out on the Junior Varsity winding up wrestling Varsity. Junior Varsity coach Dennis Spruer stated, Throughout the sea- son, the team showed a lot of enthusiasm as well as poise and determination. Although they were a young team and went through a rebuilding season, they've got a lot of strength and some good years ahead of them. f 5, M . P V' .....-r B B: Good Job!!!!

WRESTLING 97 Perfection becomes necessity, fame imminent as , Laker's Make Tracks To Victory There is not chance, no fate, or no destiny that can hinder, smudge, or block the awe- some strength of a determined soul. Gifts count nothing in this lone world, Will alone is great, All things give way before it, soon- er or later. It was this determination and will to triumph that led the 1981 Lakeland track squad into a time lived only the most elite, the most powerful, and the most com- petitive. The Lakers were champions, represent- ing the true definition of the word. In the regular season, no one ever had a chance to dethrone them, They finished the season sporting a perfect 13-0 record, while stand- ing on pedestal well above the remaining N.E.C.C. teams. The Lakers walked away from the season with the Carroll Relays Class B Championship and the North East- ern Corner Conference meet championship trophies buried somewhere in the Lakeland trophy case. All this gave way to eight new track records in the high jump, discus, high hurdles, 400 meter relay, mile relay, 800, 1600, and 3200 meter events. The Lakers were heavily represented by such standouts as Gary Grogg, Brian Troyer, Paul Coffman, Steve Nerney, John Friend, Mike Grossman, Chris J ent, and Ken Schlemmer. Gary Grogg, the 1600 and 3200 meter record holder, qualified for re- gional by placing third in the sectional 1600 meter race with an outstanding time of 4:26.7. Grogg and J ent will host a large and tre- mendously strong group of athletes when returning for a command performance in 1982. A: The 1981 Track Team: trow D K. Schmidt, R. Hos- tetler, G. Grogg, C.

Teams record didn't echo their ability Between The Lines What man has captured 5 consecutive Wimbledon titles? What 17-year old girl is a millionaire? And what 37 year-old woman has compiled a list of 20 Wimbledon titles and continues to be a threat in competitive tennis? The answers? Bjorn Borg, Tracey Austin, and Billie Jean King. All true tennis fans know the statistics and follow their favorites through slumps and peaks, and each tennis enthusiast dreams of the day that he might meet his idol on the court and defeat him! Tennis has become a national favorite with private as well as public facilities springing up across the nation. Our community has reacted to this great rise in popularity by playing more tennis than ever before. Though lacking an indoor club, the school corporation rewarded tennis fanatics with 10 resurfaced courts at the high school. Members of the boy's team commented on the difference the new surface brought. The courts not only looked good, stated coach Mont Arnold, they increased life in tennis balls and produced a fine bounce and smooth surface to play on. Tennis enthusiasts from around the area played on the formerly derelect courts, as well as members of both the boys and girls teams. Members of the JR. High program and various physical education classes also used the new facilities. The corporation also rewarded the tennis team new columbia blue and red uniforms along with the courts. Although the new additions didn't enhance the teams record of 2-9, it did aid in team morale. Also, the conference tourney was held at Lakeland for the lst time. The racketmen failed to place a man on the all-conference team, but did however, manage a 2-2 conference win-loss record. Coach Arnold commented that in comparri- son to past teams, the 1980 team was Aver- age He also stated, however, that the team's record certainly didn't echo their ability. The Dekalb Barons defeated the racket- men in first-round sectional play 3-2. Com- menting on the tough competition through- out the season was senior Jeff Slattery, We play two Fort Wayne schools, and many other large schools out of our own conference during regular season play. According to Arnold the team lacked a man to fill the number 1 spot. Seniors Slat- tery and Steve Nerney alternated in the 1 positiong they were unable to compile a win- ning record. Next year, Arnold hopes for more re- cruits. We always pick up a few kids that have dropped out of their sports, and I'm hoping for some interest in the form of freshmen, he stated. E.

Tennis-101 School gains sport, girls gain experience . s Tennis Grows Skirts! After the last lap was logged, the last vol- ley volleyed, the last lob smashed, the last service aced, and the final return returned, the first year female tennis team finished with a record of one win, one tie, and four losses. Under the direction of Mont Arnold, the first year team had a better than expected turnout with 17 girls trying out. I didn't expect this much interest, nor did I expect the girls to improve so rapidly, stated Coach Arnold. Although their season consisted of a mere six matches, the girls will pick up a few more teams each year, going further and further away from their home base as they gain experience and depth. The highlight of the season was the sec- tional as the team of Andy Hillman at num- ber one singles, Michelle Slattery at num- ber two singles, Cherrie Yunker and Stacie Krestan at number one doubles, and Paula Sprunger and Rachel Bir at number two doubles, headed down to Swinney Park in Fort Wayne. Advancing to second round were the Bir-Sprunger team, advancing to third round were the Yunker-Krestan team and also Hillman. Although the girls finished with just one win, the school gained a sport and the girls gained much experience, playing DeKalb, Northridge, Fairfield, Angola, Central No- ble, and East Noble. Summing up the year, assistant coach Chris Benedict statedg It's unbelievable how far the girls have come in such a short period of time. At this rate, I would look for Lakeland to begin to dominate the tennis in this area in the very near future. l K A: Team Picture- lbottom rowl Kim Byler, Shaun Litke, Brenda Seaman, Jody Fetters, Rachel Bir, Mi- chelle Slatery, Paula Sprunger.

'52 U It's not that the year wasn't any differ- ent because in little ways it was. Like we lost four old teachers, but then again we gained four new ones. Three of the teach- ers switched the courses they taught, but every student switched their classes too! Again this year there were athletes who didn't give up until they made the ALL- SPORTS teams, and there were the kids who were just proud to be part of a team. Some students felt they had to be in ev- ery club there was, and some didn't know there were any. The town didn't change muchg They built a few new buildings, Regardless of where you are and when, one thing will always be ba- sically the same-teenagers. but the tooling strip stayed the same and that's what mattered to the kids. Even though the names changed a lit- tle and the places didn't look exactly like they used to, the people were basically the same. They shared tears, hopes, vic- tories and laughter like the classes before them, and the classes after. When you think about it, it's nice that the people stayed the same. After all, Where would we have been if we hadn't shared our dreams and lived that Laker life together? A: This is Laker country!

A Challenging Task Our principal, W. Beau Christian, and assistant principal, John Storck are faced with many troubling problems and issues. A major issue concerning our administrators is the use of alcohol and other toxic substances within the boundaries of school au- thority. Mr. Christian and Mr. Storck stand firmly on the fact that Lakeland has very few drug and liquor related problems com- pared to surrounding schools. If better communica- tions were established be- tween school and the pub- lic, our image as a teaching institute would greatly im- prove, stated W. Beau Christian, Parents are rightfully concerned about the drug and alcohol problems, but Lakeland controls the usage as well, or better, than society in general. In the course of an entire year, perhaps twelve students approach or are caught by school authorities and only about eight of those have defi- nite problems with drugs or alcohol. Mr. Storck felt that the problems the school faces are parallel to those soci- ety must deal with. Schools only receive peo- ple Whom society has molded. As in society, some people have dis- trurbing habits and differ- ences, but the majority are realistic people. The same holds true at Lakeland. It is impossible to cure all the problems within societyg therefore, it is impossible to cure all the problems within the student body. But, Mr. Christian and my- self will do our very best in trying. PRINCIPAL-107 . . . The race seemed so very long, the track so lonely, the time so eternal, as there became only one goal in the life of the Laker runner-to snatch victory from the realms of defeatg It would mean the difference between the ti- tle of champion and of loser. But his dream of winning grew more and more blurred as his strength grew scarce and his heroic face was trans- formed into that of a strug- gling man. Then, just as defeat seemed most obvi- ous one last hopeful cry poured from the stickened throngs who watched, and final phrases of encour- agement sounded throughout the oval. Sud- denly, the pain meant nothingg Strength poured from his inner soulg Deter- mination conquered all op- position, and the fist of a Laker loomed above all others-the supreme claim to victory. In many instances, the spirit and hope of a friend cheering a fellow Laker on became the deciding fac- tor in the victory of a bas- ketball or football game, or a wrestling or track meet. Other times, it was the fact of knowing a warm smile would greet you at the end of each race or match, your sweats would be ready to wear, and a trusted hand would congratulate or console you accordingly. Pep groups played an impor- tant role in raising morale, organizing events, record- 1980 81 Pep Groups are . . . HHPPY, Happy And Clappy ing statistics, and enter- taining at halftimes. The 1981 Pom-Pon squad carried on tradition by performing at every home basketball intermis- sion under the helpful eyes of Mrs. Mary Redden. They performed to such hits as I'm Alright and Hit Me with Your Best Shot. The Pep Block, under the supervision of presi- dent Laura Mireley and sponsor Mrs. Connie Bill- ings were highly involved in the 1981 Lakeland Laker Sectional Cham- pionship. Their motto? 1'm proud to be a Laker!! The Mat-maids and Trackettes were responsi- ble for recording statistics and results, taking care of equipment, and retrieving sweats They were di- rected by Mrs. Charlotte Anspaugh and track coach Nick Effthimieu. The freshman, junior varsity, and varsity cheer- leading squads not only cheered at basketball and football games but at var- ious other pep-sessions. They often fell prey to voice problems Senior Brian Troyer gave his thoughts about Laker pep programs, If the Matmaids, Cheer- leaders, Pom Pon, Pep Block, and Trackettes did not operate, the Lakeland sports program would not be of the quality it is. I feel that they are very valu- able to us and we appreci- ate them greatly. LET S G0 LAKERS! At the first game of regional, the LHS fans don't hesitate to show their spirit.

Mild, But Not Meek Lakeland High has a mighty pretty fair, All the smarty fiddlers from the school come there. Elbows flyin' as the rosin' up the bow For the first prize contest in the Lakeland fiddler's show. Senior Dan, with his whiskers in his ears, Kingpin fiddler for nearly three years. Junior Tom, with his blue walleye An' sophomore Jim who could make a fiddle cry. They was all a tunnin' while the judges told the crowd He who got the mostest claps did win the bestest prize. Everybody waitin' for the first tweedle-dee When in come stumblin'-freshman me!!! Bowed right pretty to the judges and the rest, Took a silver dollar from a hole inside my vest, Plunked it on the table an' said, There's my callin' card! An' anyone that beats me, well, he's got to fiddle hard' Then I tucked my fiddle spang underneath my chin An' petted it and tuned it till the judges said, Begin! Junior Tom was the first in lineg He could fiddle all the bugs off a sweet potatoe vine, He could fiddle up a whale from the bottom of the sea, He could fiddle down a possum from a mile-high tree, You could hear hands spankin' till they spanked each other raw When he finished variations of Turkey in the straw! Sophomore .lim was the next to play, He could fiddle all night, he could fiddle all day. He could fiddle chills, he could fiddle fever, He could make a fiddle rustle like lowland river, He could make a fiddle yell like a angry woman, And they clapped like thunder when he finished strummin'. But the crowd was tired of their no-count squealing, When out in the center stepped Senior Dan Wheeling. He fiddled high and he fiddled low, He fiddled and fiddled with a cherry wood bow. He fiddled the wind by the lonesome moon, He fiddled the most almighty tune. He fiddled north and he fiddled south, He fiddled the heart right out of your mouth. He fiddled here and fiddled there, He fiddled salvation everywhere. When he was finished, the crowd cut loose. An' I set there wonderin' What's the use. But I stood up pert with my freshman spirit And I fiddled loud, so the world could hear it. I started off with a dump-diddle-dump, Skunk cabbage growin' by the bee-gum stump. My mother was a whipporwill pert, My father he was lazy, I'm a freshman broke loose in a new store shirt To fiddle all Lakeland crazy. Swing your partner-up down the middle, Sashay now-Oh listen to my fiddle. Rabbit in a pea patch, possum in a pot Try and stop me now-my fiddle's gettin' hot. Fiddle, cryin' in the stable door, Sing tonight as you never sang before! Sing on the mountain with the eagle's quill, Sing to the valley's, and slap em' with a hill. A freshman's loose, A freshman's loose, A freshman's loose at Lakeland. There wasn't a sound when I finished bowing. But, somewhere or other, the dawn was growing. An' I thought, I fiddled all night an' lost, Your A good freshman, but you've been bossedf' So I went to congratulate senior Dan, But he put his fiddle into my hand- An' then the noise of the crowd began!!! vim. lg 4.1--MER !

Being a sophomore is like being a youngster who is nearly a teenagerg He is too young to do as he pleases, yet he is old enough to assume important responsibilities. A sophomore is not the in- experienced freshman nor is he the well-rounded and worldly upperclassmang He is captured somewhere in the middle. As sophomores, stu- dents received their class rings, began dating stead- ily, received their drivers' licenses, and then accord- -Q., LQL-.. ingly bought a car. We do a lot of things which are important as in- dividual students, said Linda McMaster. Being a sophomore prepares each student to become a solid unit of a junior class, which as a whole must ful- fill many important obliga- tions to our fellow stu- dents. Being a sophomore is the time when students must mature and develop goals which will be the ba- sis of their lives, added Mr. Dennis Baxla, It's tough being a sophomore. I respect them, they face a lot of adversity. -,nl AZ Well Wad'Ya Think? Sopho- more Marsue Lambright con- verses with a judge at the NIS- BOVA contest. 112-SOPHOMORE LIFE B: Oh Well!

A Class With Class Within every class of every high school ever, there has been a variety of activities, interests, and li- festyles, the athletes, the scholars, the musicians, the artists, and the plain old every day kids. The ju- niors in almost every way, were cohesive to this rule, yet they had an individual- ity-a uniqueness about them. There were many firsts associated with the juniors. They gave S500 of their prom money to the family of a fellow class- mate whose house was de- stroyed by fire, Troy Oak- ley sold over 31000.00 worth of magazines, sev- eral boys were caught stealing an outhouse for the homecoming bonfire, and they won the quiz bowl for the second year in a row. Other firsts in- cluded: First place in the showcase, powderpuff, tug-of-war, boy's leggs, girl's legg's, boys cookie eater, and float competi- tions. Although there was a variety of interests and goals within the class, the juniors held a common goal, the completion of the prom. Money was raised by selling magazine sub- scriptions S4,500.00 in all, and preparations were made throughout the year. For the juniors, all the ac- tivities, all the good times, all the bad times, all the hard work, all the trauma were made the junior year so, wonderful, terrible, dull, exciting, active, and unique all at the same time. E: OOOMPHI The junior tug of war team heaves ho to defeat the seniors and win the contest, F: That is correct. The quiz bowl team applauds another correct answer. They won for thc second year in a row. G: Art class? Linda Halferty and Tracey Boyles work on their pro- jects in advanced typing. H: We're number one!

AN- A JUNIOR LIFE-115 X, 'X ,A Disease Hits Senior Classg 144 Infected When a stranger walked through the red hall he didn't have to worry. Al- though everyone knew there was a disease going through Lakeland High School in epidemic por- tions, he also knew you had to be a senior to quali- fy to catch it. While cures for diseases are worked on everyday, there was no hope for this one. It has been around as long as there has been a senior class and each year it spreads. It's a disease it's catching . . . lT'S SEN- IORITIS! When teachers ques- tioned why seniors' grades dropped below their aver- age, and why their names became a more frequent part of the absence list, many seniors didn't know how to respond. How could they say, It's just this disease I have! It wasn't hard to tell when SENIORITIS set in, although the symptoms AZ Hats off to the seniors! After winning the first round, the sen- iors fell to the juniors. B: Say seniors! During Homecom- ing competition, the senior cheer- leaders strutt their stuff! C: And they all come tumbling down! After falling to the sopho- mores, the senior girls fall to the ground. 110-SENIOR LIFE were different in every case. Having a test in each class yet staying home to catch up on the afternoon soaps, starting a count- down of days left until graduation on the first day of school and not caring what went wrong just be- cause you knew gradu- ation was around the cor- ner, were all symptoms. Remedies varied with the individual. Although the disease couldn't totally be cured, days of skipping school, hours of rest, and going out on dates instead of studying usually helped the seniors. Will the cure for this dis- ease ever be found? Is there any hope for the sen- iors who have already be- came infected with this disease? Many feel there will be a chance of con- tracting this disease as long as there are seniors. Many hope a cure is never found. or -...LH.4.,. . -ulsg - sim 5 L 2-T--l M1- D. We're number 1!

Anyway you see us, we're still all Lakers. UNDERCLASS-135 I 'Sl iii 33 Hoping for fun, Lakers Silently Await The Bell Monday through Friday, from bell to bell, seven hours a day we were stu- dents through and through, no questions asked. But when that final bell of the day was heard, we slowly picked our- selves up and began to take our seperate roads home, to where our other interests waited our care and imagination. Contrary to popular be- lief, we students had other interests beyond burning gas from our vehicles, lis- tening to music, gambling and playing sports. Lake- land students were in- volved in hunting, fishing, skiing, billiards, roller skating, computers, flying planes, fashions, leather- crafts, art, poetry, photog- raphy, and playing T.V. games, just to name a few. I enjoy typing, its one of the few skills I possess, said junior Kent Schmidt, I lack artistic ability, but the outcome of typing is a form of graphic art, and it's also fairly economi- ca1. If you're ever swim- 136-STUDENT LIFE ming and feel something pulling on your ankle, it might be me, said Mike Christian, I scuba dive, I'm hoping it will help me in my planned career in ma- rine biology. Perhaps the most unique hobby possessed by a Lakeland student be- longed to senior class president Trent Curtis. I am a bed-racer. In order to race a bed successfully you must replace its wheels with larger ones, meet Weight standards and have several fast peo- ple piloting it, stated Trent, My bed is consid- ered a serious threat to win the 'Three Rivers Classic'. But then suddenly, just when it seemed that the fun would never end, the game died, the gas tank was emptied, the picture was painted, the poem was written, and the race was won. Then, we trudged back to the halls and rooms we knew so well and silently awaited that last bell. fill 1 . is ' 'Eg' 'wlrwsvt A: Just showin' off!

West-Pres A board member is responsible for quality and equitable education throughout the corporation. Contin- ual communication between corpo- ration patrons, school board mem- bers and administration is essential in order to provide policies for gov- erning our schools. Jac Price-Member The main obligation of a school board member is to help prepare to- day's student for their future en- deavors in life. By keeping abreast of the many changes effecting our educational process and by relying upon public imput regarding major issues, a responsible school board member allows more student aware- ness to help meet the challenge of today's social, economical and emo- tional demands. 138 CORPORATION ADMINISTRATION William Sisson-Vice Pres The basic education in our elemen- tary schools is the most important. All the students need to come into the same basic knowledge. From this point on, they can explore dif- ferent things to help them find what they are suited for in tomorrows world. Charlene Curtis-Sec. As children we learn how to act, react, and interact by watching what the people around us do. We often learn socially unacceptable andfor emotionally andfor physical- ly damaging ways to behave. Schools can provide other ways to act, react, and interact. By learning about other societies, history, math- ematical theories, etc., through reading and studying in various ways, we learn that there are many ways to accomplish a given task. Mary K. Petersen-Member I believe my responsibility and pur- pose as serving as a member on the Lakeland School Corporation board is to promote the maximum intellec- tual, emotional, social, asthetic and moral development of each individ- ual child throughout our school com- munity. Our goals must strive for constant and continual excellence for each child to develop and achieve hisfher maximum poten- tia1. Phillip D. Curtis-Member The school should provide as com- plete an academic, vocational, and extracurricular program as can be afforded by the taxpayers of the cor- poration. To provide as adequate of facilities as are necessary, and can be afforded, to carry out the pro- gram, to be available and accessable to discuss the concerns and interests of the patron and taxpayers of the corporation.

A School Without Peers A highly respected group of school officials governing all corporation activities is the Board of Trustees. Meeting twice a month, the school board faced many issues rela- vant to Lakeland as well as the corporation in gen- eral. One of the major is- sues confronting the school board last year was the problem of student dis- cipline and harmful sub- stance abuse. It was decid- ed that supervision was to be HBEEFED UP during pass periods, lunch periods and at extracurricular ac- tivities causing some con- straint to students. An- other important issue was the need to provide the best possible facilities to students which is afforda- ble to taxpayers. In order to achieve this, the tennis courts were resurfaced, hallways and rooms were painted, and several land- scape modifications were made. According to Super- intendent James Auter, the board was interested in providing a comfortable environment in which each student could reach his potential both aca- demically and socially. Some of the major goals for the upcoming year in- clude improvingfstudent discipline and achieve- ment, and continuing with school climate improve- ments. Superintendent Auter commentedg Im- provement has been con- stant, and with help and effort from the students, we'1l have a school that will have no peer in the state of Indiana.

Deep Within the uncer- tainty of each classroom, lurks a frightful beast , known as the teacher. But behind those staring eyes and stonefilled faces, lies the heart and soul of as- tounding brilliance, the su- preme architects of our minds, the men and Wom- en responsible for our preparation for life. Yet, we know very little con- cerning them. What are responsibilities? are their philos- their What ophies concerning educa- tion? goals? What are their The student can only speculate. Education must in- crease the mind and atti- tude of a child to that of an adult, stated junior Loren Hartman, the student must be prepared for exis- tence in the social world. Senior Lori Ford capsu- lized her meaning of edu- cation bluntly and easily. Education should better acquaint a young person for life in the real world. This generally agreed with the other student opinions. The teachers and administrators em- ployed by the Lakeland School Corporation are of high quality and are very capable of dutifully fulfill- ing our needs, said stu- dent body president Scott Sites. A challenge should be presented by education, but the assigned tasks should remain enjoyable, said senior class sponsor Ken Warren. My respon- sibility is to provide stu- dents With a challange which is realistically achieved. Mr. Garver at- tacked the situation from all angles, I believe in a total education, one for cultural, intellectual, and practical purposes. Mr. Preuter bases his philos- ophy of education on his responsibilities. It is my responsibility as an educa- tor to help students enjoy learning and make it as in- teresting as possible, not frustrating and painful. Frustration and pain very rarely propel students to wish to learn. All the ideas differ, but each pro- duces the same product, young people who pos- sess the tools to direct so- ciety, as well as them- selves. It is a fact that our teach- ers will provide our stu- dents With the foremost education possible, consid ering all conditions. Per haps, this will be the force which catapults students gl , ' jf 2 l sl - :aft 'l P :- n -sm F' B f J ,. rn- ? i J 1 I . McC '.e,x 0 fm - x. ' .K si K . -1 T . 4 f 1 . i'- lqrwi t .A x 4 wx' 9 .

Did you ever wonder what factors encouraged a person to devote his life to teaching? Traditionally, people can't wait to get away from school! Many agreed that it took a spe- cial quality to devote so much time to education. There are 41 teachers em- ployed at Lakeland High School and some of them shared their reasons for choosing the teaching pro- fession: English teacher Gwen Stage stated, High School was a very impor- tant and enjoyable part of my life. Teaching was a ca- reer choice that enabled me to continue my associ- ation with education. I saw teaching as a career choice that would allow me to work and also have time to be with a family. Six year teacher Ken Warren stated, My high school economics teacher had a great deal of influ- ence on my career choice. Also I realized that the fu- ture of our country was on the shoulders of today's students, and I thought I would enjoy helping them to understand our coun- tries' system. Ten year teacher Char- lotte Anspaugh stated, I also had influence from my high school teachers. However, I was influenced by my English and Span- ish teachers. I liked what they did with kids. Mr. Eugene Potters' rea- sons for becoming a teach- er differed from any other teacher polled. I worked in a factory and all the oth- er guys that worked with me always passed me up because they had a college degree. Since I liked work- ing with people and being around kids I decided to try the teaching profes- sion. Many of the teachers agreed that the teaching career gave them a chance to work with people and at the same time have suffi- cient time with their fam- ily. I enjoy working with kids, I find it challenging and different, Never is a day the same. Plus it gives me a chance to lead a nor- mal family life, stated Mr. James Patrick. I thought it was a significant contri- bution to life compared to the values that some peo- ple pursuej' stated busi- ness teacher Dennis Risser. All the teachers polled had reasons that varied. But all agreed that to be- come a successful teacher one must like working with people. I tx D I B.Ham1'lton . l ,sp .3 V, Patrick ' - A V K4 v i J at-'L X .,. ..

These famous people are all idols that are wor- shipped and admired by others around the world. Children, teenagers, par- ents, and teachers all have heroes that they look up to or would like to be. Yes, even teachers have such fantasies. On taking a survey of who teachers would want to be if given a chance, a variety of answers were given. Many answers went along with the subject they taught, while others were just wild ideas. Mr. Garver dreams of being Laurence Olivier be- cause he was the greatest actor that ever lived Cand because he was rich!J Mr. Prueter wanted to be Soc- rates because he was the best thinker that ever lived, and he loved to learn. Mr. Warren wanted to be Thomas Jefferson be- cause he was so multi-tal- ented and wise. Most teachers, however, picked people that weren't C: THIS IS A PIECE OF CAKE! Cooks H. Reeling and L. Oakley put on the finishing touchers by icing the cupcakes. necessarily involved with their teaching field. Miss Rueckert, for instance, idolizes Gilda Radner. His- tory teacher Mr. Griggs wanted to be George Pat- ton while Mr. Schmidt dreamt of being Winston Churchill. Mrs. Billings wished to be Eleonor Roo- sevelt while Mrs. Gailis thought it would be the ul- timate to be the female pi- rate, Ann Bonny, because she lived in an exciting and romantic time. While most teachers thought of someone they wanted to be, there were some teachers that just wanted to be themselves. These teachers were: Mr. Keeslar, Mr. Liechty, and Mr. Storck. Reason? I have lived a full and rich life and I like the things that I'm doing. I have many plans for the future and want to see those plans fulfillfed.

Mustered Within the subterrain. A Mirage Of Friends' ' It's hard to explain just how special people are to you, especially when they mean as much as the MIRAGE staff means to me. It's also hard to categorize people, but when speaking of the MIRAGERS it's not hard, it's impossible. Each staffer was an indi- vidual, with individual talents. There isn't one story, one lay-out, or one idea for a picture that was just thrown to- gether . Everything that appears in this book has a lot of thought behind it. Each staffer sacrificed a great deal of his spare time to do his share of putting this book together. It took alot of hard work and dedication, but most of all it took teamwork. It took people who were willing to combine their ideas, as well as compromise with them to reach a decision that was best for all, al- though that wasn't always very easy to do. There were days when I wasn't sure how I'd react when someone yelled I need a cutline . . . quick! or What'l1 I do? My picture doesn't fit , But SOMEHOW everything always seemed to fit into place when we need- ed it to. I don't remember one time that someone came to me and said, I don't have anything to do tonight, why don't we have a work session? but I also can't recall a time that I didn't have full cooperation at a session when I needed it. ' Throughout the year we couldn't help but be unified since each one of us held one specific goal in common, the publication of the MIRAGE. But, we also had a special friendship between us. We knew if something was bother- ing one of us there were 16 people will- ing to listen and try to help out. A lot of new friendships were formed and each of the old ones were strengthened. We've put everything we could and every idea we've had into this book and tried to capture the highlights and memories of the '81 school year. We've tried our hardest to give the student body of LHS a book they'l1 always be proud of and one they can refer to in later years. So, here it is, the '81 MI- RAGE-we present it to the students, the administration, and our communi- ty supporters, very proudly. Thanks for a great year!!! 186-ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS SPECIAL THANKS TO: Keeb: For all your hard work and long hours and al- ways letting me speak my opinion, whether you agreed with me or not.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 187 f Everyone sensed the FEELINGS when gazing out through the commons glass, but within the walls of L.H.S. the 656 Lakers felt a sense of security. The freshmen They witnessed the election of the 40th president of the United States, as former actor Ronald Reagan stepped into the shoes of pea- nut farmer Jimmy Carter, but it was only because the elections pre-empted regular programming. As freshmen, national incidents seemed trivial, so they settled back with a carefree atti- tude. The sophomores To them, the draft and the possibility of a WW III were too far beyond reach to be consid- ered a threat, yet the double diget in- flation rate was too close for comfort. They remembered back to a time, not so very long ago, when they hadn't even learned the definition of inflation, but now as they pulled into the gas station with a posted 31.35 a gallon, the definition echoed within their minds. The juniors . . . Those who were dreading another replay of the same dull U.S. History course weren't pre- pared for the eventful year. They watched the number of black children murdered in Atlanta soar beyond 30, they watched as the 52 American hos- tages were released after 444 days in captivity, they watched as history wrote itself. The seniors . . . They had been pro- tected within L.H.S. for four years and within their families all their lives, then suddenly they were thrown into the real world with no protection. Events such as the assasination at- tempts on the lives of President Ron- ald Reagan and Pope John Paul the II seemed more tragic to the seniors, since they were one step beyond the others. And, while they watched the film clips of the space shuttle Columbia as it was launched and as it landed, they stopped and wondered what the future would have in store for them. The students of Lakeland High School will continue to climb this lad- der, the ladder of life. For they have seen ALL THIS . . . but the future holds A WHOLE LOT MORE!!!!! 188-CLOSING RFI?
