From the moment we step in the door as sophomores to the time when we stride across Fulton Field with diploma in hand, we are affected by the happenings at our school. The fall finds us chatting on the courts by day, at the games by night; winter catches us at the books long after 2:35. Spring sees us socializing with other Gales; summer takes us on vacation, but school is always on the horizon. All year around, we are not just ourselves but part of an institution. The building is an ersatz home, friends arid teachers adopted family, the colors blue and gold hues with special meaning. Lancaster High School is many other things as well — all those daily and seasonal events that make our school year a full calendar. LHS Is a Year Around Experience 3 4 Summer Is Band Camp Top: A Flag girl sports the vast amounts of luggage needed for a week away from civilizat ion. A full wardrobe, a radio and smuggled food and drink were taken by most campers. Below: Awaiting the bus that will take them on a rowdy two hour ride are Aaron Bailes and Davey Tinglor. Waiting — be it for the bus or breakfast — was one of the few stationary activities for campers. “Young man, do you know what time it is? It’s six o’clock — you were to be on the line at 5:45 A.M. — take a lap! So began the day for many marching band members at Rio Grande Band Camp. While most Gales were soaking up the August sun at Tiki Pool, the 198 1 Band of Gold members worked on per- fecting the ’84 contest show: the music, and with the encouragement of an unkind drill sergeant, the marching. Too much work, not enough fraternization,” summed up Karen Kasler, flag corps member. But there was time for some fraterniza- tion, shaving cream showers, late night forays into foreign dorms, and the buying out of Rio’s one and only grocery store. Every night, the store was packed with marchers who agreed that the camp’s food was “atrocious.” Though the food brought a unanimous decision, feelings about entire camp ex- perience were mixed. They ran from Senior .Jessica Back’s It would have been nice if we had some sleep, and some toilet paper in the bathrooms — never again ■.to Outstanding Camper Gary Krebs’ enthusiastic I thought it was a big par- ty! Of course. Band Director Bill Witt- man had nothing but serious praise: “It was very successful; we learned a lot.” Summer Is Band Camp 5 6 LHS Is Fall Fall when school is still a stimulating experience, with friendships to initiate, sports to be played, new classes to scrutinize and bear. The crisp air is full of activity Homecoming, the Fair, football, the sounds of the Band of Gold. For all students, fall is the time when expectations are highest for a year better than the last, whether academically, athletically, or socially. Though feelings tend to fall with the leaves, fall is a special time at LHS! LHS Is Fall 7 Right: Rob Brill tests his strength and surprises himself.

Autumn descends upon the town of Lancaster as the fair rides start to roll in. This begins an exciting and busy week for the students of Lancaster High School. The fair week brings with it a free day for the student body to go and have fun. If you look around at the food and game stands you'll be sure to find most students of LHS. In fact, most people feel food the most important part of the fair. Their tastes run from those of Beth Wince who likes “French fries and vinegar” to Lisa Young's, who enjoys “ice cream candy.” Of course there are those like Kelly Bryant who likes “eating all the food.” When a student isn’t at the food stands, he is trying his luck at the games. To try to show off their strength, some attempt to ring the bell with the hammer at the “Test Your Strength Game.” “The Lucky Bucky Ball Game is my favorite,” says Senior Jim Miller. For some of the students, it wasn’t all fun and games. Some were involved in 4-H and showing animals. Students like Caroline Links and Jill Derryberry, who show their horses at the fair every year, have little time to enjoy the pleasures of the Fair. Molly Rowles tended her flock all day. Even though these people have little time to enjoy the things that the rest of us consider fun, they manage to find other ways of enjoying “Fair Week.” 8 Fall Is Fair Day Fall Is Fair Day 9 I The 'Lucky Bucky' ball game is I my favorite.

From January 7 to February 20, Lancaster was stricken by unusually severe weather. The snow days — 9 to be exact — came to be a routine alternative to school. Twenty-five below, blizzard-like conditions, and wind chill entered our everyday vocabularies. Spring break was replaced by a one-week stretch of days off, and cabin fever became a disease not even sledding could cure. However, in betioeen the snow drifts, Gales flourished. Our boy's basketball team made it all the way to regional competition; intramurals provided fun and mid terms some mental gymnastics. March 21 saw us more than ready to shed the winter blahs, however!

Even with finals in the picture, student pursuits are likely to be baseball, pranks, and with the prom nearing, the opposite sex. All with sun in the forecast, scholars pass up essays in favor of a drive through Rising Park; and for the fortunate, a Spring Break in Florida. But spring is not all fun and games. Students do work - on the musical, the annual Mr. and Ms. LHSpageant, and well- waxed cars. And for every successful senior there is Graduation scheduled between the infamous roll sale and summer. A sublime experience for the relieved upper class, Graduation brings farewells from those who will never be quite the same. After all, LHS is a unique experience. LHS Is Spring 23 JEANS: A comfortable, casual favorite. Scott Valentine uses the ubiquitous jacket with the upturned collar, dark shades and the newly popular 5 o'clock shadow look to enhance his 501 Blues. FLASHDANCE REVISITED: Flashdancc met neon fora radical look. Tonya Hanson tops off a glowing pink blouse with sliced sweats. Buttons, bracelets and neon laces and to the total look. NEON: 84-85’s biggest, brightest fashion trend was undoubtedly neon, as 60s Day-Glo became 80s chic. Gwen Myers radiates in hot lime green, accented with checks and classic black pumps. LHS Is Fashion is always big news at LHS. This year there was a wide range of fashion for girls as well as for boys. As usual, girls look to jeans, as popular as ever. The cropped and stonewashed look was in, as well as striped, checked, and dotted denim, all in a variety of colors. Also, tee shirts with big messages like “FRANKIK SAY RELAX” or GO GO” were soon throughout the halls; oversized cotton tops were also in. The hottest items this year were the oversized V-neck Limited sweaters; and everywhere there were layers of bright neon colors: pink, green, orange, yellow and blue, glowing on socks, belts, pants, sweats and sweaters. A few passed on the “radical” look and stayed with pearls, cardigans and plaid. And let’s not forget the guys; their fashions also made news. Breakdance styles were popular, with parachute pants, wild breakin’ tops and laced-up high tops. Jean jackets were the usual hit, accompanied by “Risky” Ray Ban shades. Often bypassing rumpled camouflage gear, jeans and buttondowns, guys enjoyed dressing up in pleated pants and slim ties. And striped jeans were not for “girls-only.” All in all, fashions were very fun and exciting this year. 14 LHS Is Vogue ( I ! CASUAL: Ties and high heels were often discarded for relaxed gear. Sweatshirt Friday and wild Hawaiian beachwear being favorites. Rick Gardner hangs out in camouflage and a spirited T. LAYERS: Susie Cork goes over-the-top with layers of chic: Graffiti skirt and oversized shirt tipped with a cobalt scarf and rings of belts. Adding to the look are bright tights and current lace up flats. GQ LOOK: Inspired by the popular male magazine, many “modern men of LHS ventured beyond traditional jeans and buttondowns. Andy Wuertzer displays the subtly striped shirt, contrasting sweater vest and white oxfords of a sharp dressed man. PERSONAL: Carrie Harner combines a variety of looks for personal style. Punked hair, pearls, cardigans and prominent earrings all remained on the fashion plate. GROUND FLOOR: Adidas made way for canvas hightops in ’84.

While seniors basked in the knowledge that they’re the “big guys on campus and juniors prided themselves on no longer being sophomores, the sophomores — Class of ’87 — began school suffering the standard pangs of being the “new kid on the block.” They got lost finding Room 338, were misdirected to the cafeteria and never made it to physical education because the gym door was locked, and they didn’t know about the locker room doors. They missed lunch because their lockers wouldn’t open, forgot their emergency data sheets on Friday, got stuffed into a trash can while they tried to cut across Senior Court and they knew it would take them all year to learn their schedules. Whoever heard of modules, anyway! Apart from these typical fears, representative sophomores Kristi Norris and Melissa Culp, both college prep “After all, 6Freshman’ is a dirtier word than ‘SophomoreV’ students, expressed some trepidation about “harder classes” and being in non- graded classrooms with upperclassmen. However, somewhat seasoned over the summer through band camp experiences, these two tenth graders knew that there were some distinct “no-no’s for sophomores. They discovered, for instance, that there are “senior, junior and sophomore buses on band trips.” Knowing that they could get kicked off the wrong bus, according to Melissa, prepared them, for accepting the Senior Court as verboten. Because both girls have older brothers who have gone through LHS (Melissa’s brother is Senior Dwain Culp) they felt a bit more confident in knowing the system. In fact, Melissa expressed the positive side of it all when she quipped, “After all, ‘freshman’ is a dirtier word than ‘sophomore’ , thus elevating the Class of ’87 to that of some status.

Many other seniors also celebrated in the parking lot on the first day. LHS Is eturning Starters! Not all the students seemed to have their shoes on the wrong feet the first day — the Class of “85” took it all in stride. After all, they were the seniors, possessing confidence in all the knowledge of matters both academic and social at LHS. With graduation and the “real world” seemingly the least of their cares, they shed underclassman apprehensions and adopted a more casual senior style. Senior court, parties, the “Gentleman’s ‘C ” and “selling the sophomores elevator passes” took keynote places in the mind. There are other advantages to being a senior, as they found out. A surprising amount of respect was now allotted them. “All the extra perks “I enjoy people parting when I go down the hall,” as Kathy Morris put it. Classes seemed a little less difficult, and perhaps Civics-Economics wouldn’t be the trial they’ve heard about. And instead of looking up at the seniors; they were hit with the fact that they are supposed to set the standards. Even without all the extra perks, just suddenly being a senior could be a pleasure — “it makes me feel good just to have made it through 12 years of school.” J LHS Is Returning Starters 19 LIIS Is IHANGES As some 169-1 fashionably togged and attractively tanned LHS-ers walked through the doors on the opening day of school, little did they know that things had changed, most changes resulting from a toughening of state standards. At issue, in particular, were more stringent disciplinary measures and t ighter restrictions on the amount of time students must be in school. At individual class meetings, held Aug. 30, Principal I ee Barr set the tone for tighter restrictions. Stressing school spirit, Mr. Barr emphasized the role of discipline in helping to effect what he termed furious” spirit. “Furious and frustrated, but ultimately resigned, is what most “If this is excellence in education, Fm glad Fm graduating! Joe Reynolds students were. Brad Sidwell termed the school, “like a prison,” while Joe Reynolds, who dropped out of the race for Senior Class President last year, choked back an “1 told you so” to say, “If this is excellence in education, I’m glad I’m graduating.” Feeling most affected were seniors whose two-week early release and early graduation date were eliminated, ending a long-time senior tradition. Equally put out, however, were those students accustomed to 9th period release from study hall — also a casualty of tightened state standards. Other students lamented the addition of a regular homeroom period as well as the addition of five minutes to the school day. Besides time, even grading standards were toughened, raising the A standard to 93-100% and a B to 83-92%.. Gone were the days of the curve! Hinted at during the first week of school and later ratified by the Board of Education was the concept of Saturday School, a strong disciplinary measure implemented to reduce the number of out-of-school suspensions conventionally given. Though students like Brett Blake might have insisted that “It’s unfair,” the ultimate scapegoat is the State of Ohio whose Congressmen are simply responding to a resurgent interest in better education and who, in the words of one teacher, are equating quantity with quality.” Top: Senior Jeff Devereaux discovers passes are necessary in order to roam the halls.

We puta ® ® III lot into our season.” This was how ■II■ Coach Redman summed up the 1984 V football season. The Golden Gales were 6-4 overall and shared in the COL title for the fourth consecutive year. Opponents faced the best group of linemen Lancaster has yet to offer, according to the veteran coach of 26 years. The most exciting highlight of the 1984 season was the victory over Zanesville for the COL title. The Gales pulled ahead to win the game in the final 54 seconds. The low point of the year was the defeat suffered from Groveport. The team seemed to be concentrating too much on the upcoming game against Cincinnati Moeller, the players said. “Enthusiasm was generally good all season,” commented Coach Redman. The football banquet, held November 19,1984, ended the last season for seniors. Several MVP’S were named: John Evangelista, defensive lineman; Dirk Hines, offensive lineman; Mike Posey, defensive back; and Todd Tracy along with Kyle Messner, offensive back. The football staff of LHS spends many hours in the preparation of an upcoming season. Not only do they drill and coach the members of the team, they also watch films and concentrate on every new opponent. Coach Redman, a six-year coach for Lancaster, summed up his feelings by saying “Like some people are eggheads, I am a football head.” Top Left: Coach Posey “talks to team players, Randy Reese and Ben Stratton, during half-time locker room scene.

' say the Gales, as they pounce onto Moeller’s domain. 24 LHS Is Football Even though the loss to Moeller was imminent, Doug Thimmes' 80-yard run for a touchdown brought the Lancaster fans to their feet. And well it might! Despite the 35-7 final score, at this moment. Thimmes had just scored the second touchdown made this season against Moeller to prevent a shut-out and to maintain Gale pride. Apart from Thimmes’ moment of glory, the Gales’ hope for a victory floundered, and they were trounced by the Crusaders for a second time in two years. Coming away from the season’s first loss to Groveport, the Gales were “up for the g„me with Moeller. We’re in Groveport‘s place this week,” commented center, Adam Pillar. They were the underdogs in that game just as we are in this,” he explained. According to Coach John Starner. There was good team spirit at practice. We realized we weren’t intense enough against Groveport,” Starner added, and that we had to be more so against Moeller.” Kevin McCarty, special team member, added that he had expected a physical game. Students were quick with support. The student body rallied around the Gale gridders by chartering buses to take enthusiastic spectators to the game at Galbreath Field, Sept. 14. Other students formed a caravan to go to the game. Still others huddled around the radio for the play-oy-play. The team itself traveled to Cincinnati on Greyhound buses, leaving Fulton Field at 3 p.m. With the sobering prospect of battling the Crusaders in mind, the team lookea quietly determined as they filed from the locker room, and Coach Starner ventured some optimistic comments. Unfortunately, intimidated during the first half, the Lancaster defense didn’t get going until the second half to shut down the Moeller offense. At the same time, the Gale offense came around to score, late in the fourth quarter. At least the Gale mark was made! In fact, said Lancaster fan Scott Valentine, Contrary to Mr. Barr’s remark about Groveport. the Lancaster team did show up for this game!” Top Left: Set for a challenge, the Gales are united as a team.

LHS Is Football 25 LHS Is... j ENIOR COURT Ten years ago, the first senior strolled onto senior court, and it became what it is today. The Senior Class of 1974-75 approached the administration with an idea which eventually evolved into a senior tradition. They proposed that the court-like atrium inside the academic wing would become a privileged area for seniors. It was agreed to on a trial basis and, since then, has become a permanent refuge from study hall for seniors. Neither clouds nor cold deter the . . a permanent refuge from study hall.. ” cards and clowns except the hapless underclassman who dares to cross into this forbidden territory. At this point, the seniors descend on him like trump on an ace and, barefoot and preyed-upon, the underclassman beats a hasty retreat. While the laughter and playing continue, there is a serious side to the court of which most students are unaware. In previous years, seniors have tragically died during their school years. In memorial to the deaths of their beloved classmates, plaques are located in Senior Court. 26 LHS Is Senior Court Top: Matt Petty displays the winning trick, as partner Tony Albertini and opponents Jeff Young and Jeff Brown look on.

Below: Coach May advises Teresa Cook on game strategy. With eight returning starters and team spirit that was “fantastic!” the Lancaster Field Hockey team achieved a first. They missed the State Tourney by only one game. Nonetheless Coach May attributed the team’s success to the fact that, “The team was very enthusiastic and moved from one game to the other without looking back.” The high point of the season, she said, was beating rival Bexley, who only suffered two losses all season. On account of this win the Lady Stickers placed second in their league and embarrassed Bexley in the process. The other high point of the season was making it into the District Finals, the farthest any Lancaster field hockey team has reached. The low point of the season was missing the State Tourney by one game. The Lady Stickers ended their season with a 7-7-5 record. The team captured the honor of being named District Runner-Up. Pam Haley and Robin Feasel were named to the league’s All-Star team; Pam Haley captured the MVP award for the second year in a row; Robin Feasel captured the Best Offensive award for scoring 20 out of 29 goals; Susie Cork was named Best Defensive Player; and Shannan Clark received the Most Improved Player Award.

The spark of emotion was Homecoming Weekend. As the Gales rolled to a 35-8 victory over Toledo Bowsher, the fog rolled to a victory over the game. An omniscient fog quietly crept onto Fulton Field and, by the fourth quarter, visibility had become so bad the field could not be seen from the press box, stands or sidelines. Unable to see the game, the announcers stopped keeping time and score. This caused the fans to believe that the game had been called, but in reality it was played in its entirety. The game will go down in history as the “fog bowl. Saturday, the fog dissipated and the romance began. Russell Carey of Q-FM- 96 supplied the music for the Homecoming Dance, as the couples could be seen “Dancing in the Dark.” Love and laughter filled the beige, blue and burgundy cafeteria, as the over 300 in attendance enjoyed the 1984 Homecoming. The whole weekend was started with a strike of a match at Thursday night’s bonfire. Students attended a pep rally in the stadium followed by the bonfire. Homecoming Queen was Kim Key, escorted by Jeff Brown. Attendants were: Senior Debbie Aucreman, escorted by Matt Petty; Junior Gwen Myers, escorted by Chuck Cave; and Sophomore Kim Rosser, escorted by Dan Crawford. “A Toast to the Gales” was the winning slogan on the Seniors first place float. Sophomores finished second and the Juniors were third with the first Generic float. 30 LHS Is Homecoming ) Opposite rat;..THE HOMECOMING COURT — Kim Rosser with escort Dan Crawford; Gwen Myers, escorted by Chuck Cave; Queen Kim Key and Jeff Brown; and Debbie Aucreman with Matt Petty.

Its competition, the closing night of the fair, may have drawn some attention, but the Homecoming Dance, held October 13 at 8:00 p.m., was a memorable event few wanted to miss. The dance was a fun evening not only for alumni returning to their alma mater but also for current LHS students. Music for the dance was provided by DJ Russell Carey of Q-FM 96. Mr. Carey played a wide selection of dance music which ranged from the latest soft rock to standard rock, and even a bit of hard rock for the extra enthusiastic. Aside from the display of LHS students’ dancing abilities, other traditional events took place such as the introduction of Homecoming Queen Kim Key and her escort Jeff Brown. Following the introduction, . . a memorable event few wanted to miss Queen Kim was presented several gifts from local merchants and the student body.

The 1984 L.H.S. golf season was preceded by long hours of individual effort. The team knew they were facing the most ambitious schedule in recent years, according to coach Goss. Not only were they facing tough opponents, but they were also playing some of Ohio’s most challenging golf courses, added Goss. Scioto Country Club, Brookside Country Club, and Columbus Country Club topped the list. The 1984 squad was led by returning lettermen (Sr.) Jason Clark, (Jrs.) Chris Brook and Mike Hammier. Newcomers to the squad were (Soph.) Mike Wagner, and (Jr.) Tad Darfus. The highlight of this season was a trip out to Scioto Country Club in Upper Arlington, said the coach, a club which is listed as one of America’s greatest courses. First year co-coach Rod Ishida described the course set in the middle of Upper Arlington as “unbelievable.” The squad finished the 1984 season with a 19 win-14 loss record. They were second in the Central Ohio League, with Jason Clark, Chris Brook, and Mike Wagner named all C.O.L.

Joe, involved in an independent study program with Mr. Buskirk as advisor, assists Mr. Barr with the announcements and is the announcer for the Band of Gold. He also served as Master of Ceremonies at the LHS Talent Show and as an intern at a local radio station. He became interested in broadcasting about five years ago when he saw a movie about a radio station. Ever since then he has been interested in becoming a broadcaster. After high school, he plans to study at Ohio University. His main goals are to become a broadcaster, to own a radio station, and obviously to be successful. Above: Joe delivers the morning announcements from the office. Gale Gridders Prep The Friday night football game involves more than meets the eye. The average football spectator assumes that the 70- somc team members gather at Fulton Field shortly before the game and arc somehow all ready to roll by 8:00 p.m. Actually, this is not so. Preparation for the game begins with a form of retreat beginning shortly after school is out. on Friday. According to head coach, Tom Redman, the team meets around three at the Methodist Campgrounds and remains together until just before game time. The idea, he said, “is to get players in game mood, refresh memory, get concentration and eliminate distractions. He added that they have a speaker from the community: they eat and have devotions and go through the game plans (scouting report). The mandatory activity was initiated for Gridiron battles about 5 years ago. according to Redman. Meetings begin with a pep talk from Coach Tom Redman followed by a scripture reading by a selected team member. The team then engages in a moment of silent prayer. Following this, a speaker from the community delivers an inspiring speech. Our football players then engage once again in prayer. According to Redman, after this uplifting and fulfilling experience, a balanced meal is prepared and served by the football mothers. Some players would prefer to do other things: Jim Hoover, for instance, says I would rather go home and rest.” But others like Pat Henry feel that the meetings arc a good idea because they help keep the team together and help keep their minds on the game.” Above: Seniors Ron Rhodes.

Teachers were given a reasonable amount of time to locate their favorite baby picture to enter in the contest. For 25c a ballot, students were given the opportunity to identify the darling baby pictures. Pictures ranged from posed studio shots to candid home photos. Who could tell that the balding “Mr. So-and So” had once had a full head of blond tousclcd ha� r? How did Mrs. “So-and So ever acquire legs from those scrawny tooth-picks? Mike Posey’s keen eye helped him to identify the most pictures and win the contest for a grand prize of five dollars. Who says that the people don’t have a voice??? The Senior Class does — at least when it comes to their class song! Following last spring’s vote, the Class of 1985 voted to give Quiet Riot’s “Let’s Get Crazy” the nod as the graduating class’s school song! However, controversy arose over this selection. No one, it seemed wanted to ‘‘get crazy.” Due to a controversy over the lyrics, the seniors decided to hold a new election. This time, the seniors decided “We’re Not Gonna Take It” — in more ways than one! In fact, the Senior Class of 1985 has one message to give and it can be found in their class song. In the new election, held in the fall of 1984, the Senior Class chose Twisted Sister’s song over the previously voted- in number. :_______________________________________________________________________ LHS Is Here and There 37 FINALLY “Don’t Look Back” — The weekend’s here!

Coach Warren Buskirk thought that this year was the best one of his four years of coaching the team. 'Phis year the team was COL champs with a COL record of 6-0 and a final record of 14-3. The highlights of the season were beating Marietta to win the COL and Lisa Teachout and Kendra Leohner winning the Double’s District Tennis Tournament and participating in the State 'Pennis Tournament. The low point of the season was being beaten by Upper Arlington 5-0. Several girls on the team received special honors. First Team COL honors went to Karen Lester, Lisa Teachout, Ann Custer, Cindy Hammer, Kendra Leohner, and Betsy Wagner. Coach Buskirk was named COL Coach of the Year, and Karen Lester was selected to be the Most Valuable Flayer for the Lancaster team. Coach Buskirk said that he was pleased with the team’s attitude and accomplishments and that he hated to see the season end. He also said that he is optimistic toward the future because he will have four First Team COL girls returning next year, and this year freshmen were used on the team, so they will have some experience for next year.

The Gales were at their best when confronting number one state-ranked Cincinnati Mother of Mercy and number two ranked Cincinnati Seton. The Gales definitely showed their opponents that the Lancaster Volleyball program wasn’t anything to laugh at. With excellent team spirit and leadership the Spikers were able to conquer the Newark Wildcats for the third consecutive year for the C.O.L. crown. Three seemed to be the Gales’ lucky number because it was also their third year to advance to Regional Tournament. Now in her fourth year as Varsity Coach, Cheryl Haynes said “I enjoyed the season and I’m proud of the squad’s efforts against tough teams.’’ Having an experienced squad this year helped Coach Haynes set high goals, which ended with an impressive record of 17-9, considering the caliber of their competition. At the Awards Banquet Coach Haynes was awarded Coach of the Year in the C.O.L. Senior Julie Casto was MVP, and chosen to the A1I-C.0.L. team and All-State Honorable Mention.

In the 80’s, American youth were often denounced as “politically apathetic,” especially in comparison to the Ws upheaval. Though Election ’84 did not spawn any notable demonstrations at LHS, a number of students could not be described as “apathetic.” Many participated in the pre-election hype, on the national — and, due to LHS’s own Rick Bagby, the local level. The Presidential campaign was a true competition to start: Gary Hart, Jesse Jackson and Walter Mondale were all notables in the race for the Democratic | lection ’84 nomination. Mondale captured the Democrats, only to be caught in a landslide by President Ronald Reagan on Election Day. The preference for Republicans was reflected by students; who sported Republican buttons and bumper stickers. Why the conservative trend? Students stated their disapproval of Mondale’s defense plan and his person; and felt the economy stood well enough under Reagan. On the local trail, English teacher Rick Bagby ran for the State Legislature against incumbent Republican Steve Williams. “Ohio has been good to me — and I feel every citizen should return their part to the state,” he said, citing reason for entering the race, a ten-month process he found “exhausting!” While campaigning, he spoke out on the need for a strong voice in the state house, and for legislation to directly benefit our area. Even with his strong platform and endless campaigning, Bagby still came up short when the votes were counted. Despite the election day loss, he felt that he had “still won, because I gave it a try, I did the very best job I possibly could.” And Election 86? Let’s say I’m keeping my options open ... I definitely enjoyed it.” But, like many a candidate, he simply wants to “rest — for now.” 44 LHS Is Election ’84 LHS Is Pep there was! Spirit there was! But — according to some observers — it was all somewhat misdirected. The first (and perhaps last) pep rally of the year was a knock-down, drag-out booming, smashing success from the standpoint of attendance and noise. Mr. Barr pointed out that very few students took the option of going to the cafeteria instead of the pep rally. And no one could deny that the rising vocal crescendo of the crowd was impressive. However, Barr and others, distressed at the overabundance of class spirit in comparison to school spirit took this opportunity to-launch an unofficial campaign to promote “school” unity in . . school spirit was finally on the rise. place of class divisiveness. The teams, he indicated, are what we should be cheering for — not the seniors, juniors or sophomores. For the most part, students, of course, saw the Pep Rally as the “best in years and pointed out that school spirit was finally on the rise. They saw esprit de corps in the melange of toilet paper, airplanes and other debris which soared above the cheering crowd to the floor of the gymnasium. Though the controversial pep rally may or may not be the last, chances are, any future pep rallies (should they occur) will be affected by this one. At the very least, it may mean the demise of the Spirit Stick! Top Left: Sophomores cheer for L.H.S. for the first time. Bottom Left: Seniors “Go Crazy!

The girls had only two returning starters, Cathy Dye and Chris Blind. Even with the problems facing the team they surpassed all expectations. The girls improved all year and highlighted their season with a second place finish in the District Meet. The guys went on to win their ninth consecutive district title and placed twelfth in the state meet. The team had its standouts this season, as in all others. Outstanding senior Doug Conroy entered into the first team All-Ohio with his third place finish in the State Meet. Supporting Conroy were Outstanding Junior David Valentine and Outstanding Sophomore Keith Kumler. For the girls, it was Outstanding Sophomore Angie Dille gaining second team All-Ohio honors with a fourteenth place finish at the State Meet. Along with Angie was Outstanding Junior Cathy Dye. At the end of the season, the guys had a record of 78-8 with twelve overall COL championships and eighteen district wins. The girls came through with a 53-35 record and their third consecutive COL championship. All in all the Lancaster “Purple Horde” kept alive the tradition of having one of the finest and most respected cross country teams in Ohio.

Winner from a field of 17 participants was Chandler Hall with his Michael Jackson impersonation. These 17 acts included a wide range of talent from singing and dancing to some pretty outrageous comedy. First-place winner Chandler Hall received $150 for his efforts. Second place ($100) went to the Beauty Shop Quartet, which consisted of Moriah Haines, Cindy Lamb, Marty Valentine and Jennie Brunswick, who won the hearts of everyone by sweetly harmonizing to the songs, Abba Dabba Honeymoon” and “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” Third place winner Kathleen Sharritts received $50.

As it did in 1983, audience behavior once attain emerged as an issue. Though according to Norman Kemper, “The audience acted a lot better than I expected,” the consensus was that the audience was somewhat noisy and, at times, rude. Mrs. Virginia Benson, for instance, who attended as a chaperone pointed out, “The audience is supposed to be there to watch and appreciate the show. I don’t think that happened.” Principal Larry Burgess maintained that most of the problems came from the younger members of the audience. The talent show was sponsored by the Arbor Valley Drama Club who supplied all the cash prizes and ran the curtains, lights and sound for the show. Acting as Masters of Ceremony for the show were Mike Coakley and Joe Karoscik who introduced the acts with a snappy patter. All contestants were rated on a scale from 1-10 in five categories by judges Gayle Fomshell, Jon Hale and Becky Clark. Page 48: Top: Third place is copped by Kathy Sharritts.

The Lancaster Gale Booters finished their season with a record of 5-wins; 8-losses; 5- ties, with thirteen returning starters. According to Bill Creusen, a forty-year veteran of the game coaching the Booters for his first season, it was the best season since 1980. “The high point of the season came when the Gales played VVatterson and held them to a 0-0 tie,” added Creusen. Three awards were given to the exceptional players: goalie Mike Gilmore obtaining Most Improved; Thomas Sugimoto receiving Outstanding Defenseman; and Captain Craig Vandervoort receiving the Most Valuable Player Award. Creusen added that all his preseason goals were met by saying “The team never let up; they gave 110% all season long and stayed together as team in sportsmanship and spirit.” The Junior Varsity finished a disappointing but very tough season with a record of 2-8-1, the two victories coming with a 1-0 win over Columbus Academy, and a 2-1 victory over Pickerington. Coaching the J.V. for his first season was Lancaster Eagle Gazette Sports Editor Chuck Nelson. LHS Is Soccer 51 New Coach Brings Success “ love to coach this age group of guys” The dale Booters finished their season with their best record since 1980, and the man behind them was Bill Creusen, an experienced coach and forty-year veteran of the game. Bill came to the U.S.A. from Holland in 1952 and has played in, as well as coached for, semi-pro teams. Bill has never coached in a school system team before and admitted he was a little nervous at first, but by the third game in the season he gained confidence in himself as well as the team. Bill added that he had much cooperation from the school, especially in the use of Fulton Field for several home games. “With the growing popularity of the game and the success of this year’s team, in 2-3 years Lancaster should have a very strong and talented team, commented Bill. I love to coach this age group of guys and am t hankful to the U.S. for giving me the opportunity to do so,” ended Bill. % Top lA’ft: Mr. Creusen shows his concentration on the sideline.

This accomplishment gave the 1985 squad the second-best season in school’s history. With three returning starters and a supporting cast of five seniors who logged a lot of playing time in 1984, the team took the sectional (fourth year in a row) and district crown. The losses to Zanesville and Canton Hoover definitely logged as low points of the season. But seniors playing their final year have the great memory of beating Stow Walsh Jesuit in regional semi-finals. Coach Reid, who has been head coach for six years and received Southeastern Ohio District Coach of the year for three of the last four years, feels “attitude this season has been superb, reflecting a highly competitive spirit.” Special honors received were: Scott Ebbrecht — MVP offensively, first team All-Ohio A.P., player of the year in COL, Southeastern District, and Coaches’ District II; Kyle Messner— first team All-COL and honorable mention District II; Beau Reid - first team Southeastern Ohio District, second team District II, and Special Mention All-Ohio as a junior; Matt Petty — MVP defensively; Rick Welch and Doug Allen — Most Improved; Deron Beal — Best Attitude; and Doug Conroy — Super Sub.

After falling short of winning the C.O.L., the cagers ended the season as the Regional Finalists. The cagers had fought through four tough games before losing to North Canton Hoover by a score of 72-68. “I thought that we would have to call it a year, but we never gave up and hung in there,” said Reid, in reference to the Cambridge game that ended in a Lancaster victory in overtime. The biggest wins of the tournament came in the first game against Warren Local with a score of 90-57. Said forward Senior Kyle Messner about the tournament, ‘‘I thought we did a heck of a job, because it’s as far as any Gale team has ever gone.” ‘‘The team’s attitude was great. They met all of my goals. They worked very hard and it paid off,” explained Reid. The only disappointment, Coach Reid said, was “Not making St. John’s Arena,” but after coaching basketball for six years, “this season was easily the most fulfilling.” When asked whether having a son on the team affected him at all, Coach Reid replied, “I felt Beau had to work harder than the rest to get where he’s at, because I do get on his case more than on the other guys. He worked hard and it has paid off.” The most valuable players on the team according to Reid were the seniors. Their leadership was outstanding, on and off the court.

Here, practice conditions were good, in terms of pool size. However, practice times had to be worked out with the controllers of the facility. In fact, team members agree that practice times and facilities need to be changed for a creditable season to be realized. “Team members often couldn’t come, and swimming became a second priority, not first,” she said. With only four returning starters, the Tankers finished a very tough but disappointing season with a record of 0-10. The five starters were Dawn Conrad, Cathy Dye, Mike Wagner, Joel Haynes, and Mike Mikula. The most valuable team member award was given to Cathy Dye. Myles Kiphen, the head coach, ended the season by saying, “It was a really tough year for our swim team.

Some of the high points were defeating Watterson in their Classic, defeating Newark and Zanesville at home, keeping their home-game win streak alive for 26 games, winning the Sectional Tournament three years in a row. The Gales also experienced a first at tournament play at Athens High School, the power failed, and the game was delayed for over an hour. But along with the high come the low.

He hopes to see this new tradition continue into the future. After teaching at LHS for over 25 years, Mr. Barnes, the Basic Aeroscience teacher, has decided to retire. “I have really enjoyed teaching at Lancaster,” said Mr. Barnes, “and the student response was tremendous.” “What was most satisfying for me,” replied Mr. Barnes, “is that many former students have found careers in the field of aviation. Everything from military jet pilots to airport management jobs.” After retiring Mr. Barnes plans on relaxing and doing a lot of traveling, particularly to the German Music Festivals, and European Operas.

Although no one qualified as a true Marcel Marceau, the students enjoyed conveying feelings and emotions by “It was really fun to go to elementaries — the kids were very responsive!” — Susan Prosch — excused from a day of high school to perform their scripts for several of the local elementary schools. The Advanced Speech Class also got to try their hands at puppetry. Each student had to write the script, create the puppets, and produce his own individual puppet show and present it to the class. Well-received were Shauna George’s Little Red Ridinghood and Joe Karoscik’s.version of Moby Dick. Other assignments for the semester included extensive oral interpretation and the production of a television program as a class. Advanced Speech, which is conducted by Mr. Warren Buskirk was offered only once during the 1984 85 school year.

Spreads Holiday Cheer The LHS Diversified Cooperative Training students adopted a needy area family over the holidays. Those students preparing for careers in trade and health occupations, provided food, toys, fruit and a Christmas poinsettia for the family of eight. The class organizers of the holiday activity are pictured: Mary Kilbarger, Tina Pierce, Brad Sidwell and Troy Frank. This activity was one of several “area projects” the D.C.T. planned for the year. LHS is Here and There 75 LHS Is If you don’t pass out, it can bo a rewarding experience. What you may ask? — Giving blood! (that definitely would have been your second guess, right?). In February the Key Club sponsored a blood drive. Nine-four braves souls cut class to give a part of themselves to a needed cause. Even the mighty football player trembled as he enters the auditorium. After getting a clean bill of health from the blood pressure station, he prepares himself for 'he ultimate test. How many people would actually “court” having a needle in the arm? It depends! Is the girlfriend watching? . . ninety-four brave souls ...” Putting on his “MACHO” image, he watches as the nurse inserts the needle (once, t wice, maybe even three times). Many students gave blood to help a needy cause. However, Scott Valentine typifies many by saying ‘I gave blood so I would miss Algebra class.” A grand total of 78 pints was collected from the students of LHS. As the old proverb goes “It’s better to give than to receive. Top: Steve Hill is wondering whether he should really follow through with this as he observes his classmates. Bottom: Ben Stratton gives a little moral support to Tina Dale as she prepares to give blood. 76 LHS Is Giving A team of nine Latin students took third place in the academic sweepstakes contest at the Ohio Junior Classical League convention, March 1.2,3, at Sinclair Plaza in Columbus. The academic sweepstakes winner is determined by a combined score of everyone who competed in the six academic tests for each school. The Latin Club took first place with its club project which was a cube with a mosaic on each side. The Latin Club took second place with its banner. The banner was a copy of a Greek vase, and at the bottom of the banner Lancaster” was written in Greek. There were six academic tests: Grammar, History, Roman Life and . . a team of nine 99 Customs, Mythology, Vocabulary and Derivatives, and a pentathalon which was a combination of the other five tests. Thomas Sugimoto was the highest placer in the pentathalon for Lancaster; he finished fourth. He, also, placed in four of the five other tests. Also placing in the tests were Kim Bankes, Tony Garlinger, Joyce Jadwin, Jane King, Tom Mitchell, Lori Waugh, and Mark Wittich. Top: There are definitely too many pieces!

The Grapplers sported an 11-2 dual meet record as they recorded their third consecutive C.O.L. Crown by dumping Marietta 63-12 and blasting Newark 66-11. Other highlights for the Gales were victories over Westerville North and Fairfield Union as well as their second straight Grandview Heights tournament championship. Ron Young and Mike Stephens won individual district titles as the matmen placed a disappointing 4th in a 12 team district field. Young finished the season with a fine, 30-2 record while Stephens completed his career at L.H.S. with a sparkling 28-4 mark. Other top records for the grapplers were Kevin Eitel (27-5), Mike Huston (25-7), and Steve Powhida (24-10). Ron Young copped the MVP and pin honors at the awards banquet where former State Champion (1975) Ethan Reeve gave an inspirational speech. Kevin Eitel was named outstanding underclassmen, and Steve Powhida was voted the most improved. Coach Petrella was pleased with the overall progress and determination of the team. “I felt that we had a great bunch of kids who were dedicated and gave everything they had,” stated Petrella. “The Seniors will be sorely missed,” he added. LHS Is Wrestling 79 ms is... H Christmas break is one of the most anticipated of all at Lancaster High. Dreaming of a white Christmas, shopping for that special someone, and just resting in front of the fireplace with hot cocoa are some of the elements that create that cozy Christmas atmosphere. Now is the time to catch up with some long-forgotten items, like maybe the paper that’s due the first day back, assigned way- back-when... or making more cookies because the previous ones arc exactly that — previous... or even just renewing old friendships and writing Aunt Marie in Taiwan. But taking trips, shopping, and plain ole socializing are the three functions most looked forward to by students at Lancaster High. The end of the 1984 school year brought with it a most exciting beginning... Christmas break which covered any event occurring between Dec. 21 and Jan. 2,1986. The real start is at the ringing of the bell at 2:35 on Friday the 21st. Students are running through the halls, despite the rules, in efforts to make the holidays the best ever. There are the parties Friday night, the game Saturday night, Christmas exchanges Sunday, and the big dance at Leslie’s Sunday night, and if time allows for some snow to fall, a sled ride will have to be squeezed in somewhere, and, consequently, for most of us, so will some shopping excursions. Wow! Then Christmas Eve is Monday, followed by Christmas on Tuesday, and the “choo choo” train from Uncle Ned will have to be returned on Wednesday, along with the high-heeled African pumps that Aunt Marie sent. And for some of us, a plane will depart Columbus for Los Angeles on Thursday for the Rose Bowl to see the Ohio State Buckeyes play. Then there’s a couple more dances provided by the YMCA, more basketball games, and by then. New Year’s Eve will have rolled around to New Year’s Day, and the bowl games arc a must, and before you can say “Happy New Year’s,” it’s all over and time to drag back in to school and continue with our best of study habits, because, kids — yes, it is almost time for mid term finals! Things aren’t exactly this hectic, although they come pretty close. Still, the holidays are awaited long before the calendar tells us they are, and they bring with them many special memories and feelings, which can explain many of the smiling faces on our students at Lancaster High. 80 LHS Is Holidays!

Live on Stage Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit On January 11 and 12 LHS students performed Noel Coward’s play. Blithe Spirit. The story begins when Charles Condomine, (Keith Zellers) an author, decides to write a book about homicidal mediums. He invites Madame Arcati, (Karen Kasler) a medium, and Dr. and Mrs. Bradman (Dave Medsker and Cindy Lamb) to his house for a seance. During the seance, Madame Arcati materializes Elvira (Moriah Haines), Charles’ first wife, visual and audible only to Charles. Elvira, wanting Charles to be with her eternally, tries to kill him. In her attempt, however, she kills Ruth, (Susan Prosch) Charles’ present wife. Throughout the rest of the play Charles tries to find a way to dematerialize his two wives. Finally, the connection source is found between the real world and other world, the housekeeper, (Karen Strohmeyer). Many people contributed their time and effort to make the play a success. The stage crew consisted of Angie Agganis, Cindy Clary, Colleen Erin, Joel Floyd, Niels Hanson, Norman Kemper, Connie Warnock, and Jill White. The set construction consisted of Mike Coakley, Angie Agganis, Melissa Culp, Colleen Ervin, Joel Floyd, Niels Hansen, Karen Kasler, Cindy Lamb, Bill Mahon, Susan Prosch, Beth Rodenbaugh, Karen Strohmeyer, and Jill Whitmer. The publicity for the play consisted of Joel Floyd, Niels Hansen, Susan Prosch and Connie Warnock. The make-up and costumes were made, donated, or supplied by Miss Lisa Wilt, Jennie Brunswick, Mrs. Virginia Benson, and Susan Prosch. The t ickets and programs were helped by Karen Kasler, Karin Bruney, Jill Derryberry, Shauna George, Ron Hanna, and Kim Snyder. Although the play was well performed and interesting, the attendance was much like a “ghost town” unfortunately, according to Mr. Warren Buskirk, director.

As everyone knows, midterms are ★tf(a !, but this year @! is putting it mildly. With the new school excellence code, the usual midterm schedule was abolished. Students were made to face five or six midterms a day over a two-day period, a brutal schedule that even colleges don’t follow. Luckily, snow days forced a break between the two-day treachery. that un- thinkable day — FINALS” ‘Juta During that time, one could find many students locked away wracking their brains. They spent a few crucial hours cramming in information for midterms only to forget everything (even their own phone number) once the pencils were put away for the day. Once the final bell rang at 2:35, cheers were sounded and the permanent filing of semester class folders was heard. Relief set in till that unthinkable day... FINALS! What do teachers expect? Heck, it took some students an entire semester to realize they were in Civics class instead of Daydreaming 101. Top: Karin Bruney and Lisa Zukovs arm themselves for exams.

The dish came from DNS satellite systems in Bremen. “One of the main reasons we got the dish is because the cable out here is so bad” said Mr. Albert, librarian. The classes that are using it so far are the language classes. “The students get to hear a person that really speaks the language pronounce the words, Mr. Albert commented. We will also be taping shows for the computer classes and the social studies class, he added. Also coming to the library will be several new computers which will run a program that will help students prepare for the S.A.T. So it seems that the traditional books will have to share their place with the hi-tech wonders of today. Ice. snow and satellite T.V.: The “dish graces the LHS roof overlooking Senior Court. Here and r j here at lhs Students Prepare for the Hazards of Parenting In a best-seller book, Erma Bombeck warned teenagers that they would soon ‘‘get theirs” with offspring of their own. In preparation for this inevitability, some students braved Cheryl Haynes’ Child “An 18-year job you don’t get paid for.” ______Cheryl Haynes This January’s Nursery’s School was hampered somewhat by routine heavy snow but still helped in prepping students for “an 18-year job that you don’t get paid for. Preschool youngsters donated by relatives and neighbors were watched over by the class; students planned actvities such as painting, games, toys, snacks and hallway tours that were enjoyed by the adorable (and adored) tots. Mrs. Haynes calls parenting the hardest job in any student’s future and is pleased that a number take time to expose themselves to the upcoming challenge. A not-just-for-girls only course, the second semester class includes two future daddies, facing up to diapers, bottles, and bedtime at 8:00. Development and Parenting Class. The class was designed to teach future mummies (and daddies) “to understand children and plan activities for them ; skills which were put to the test during a week long “Nursery School.” Heidi Combs assisis 4-year old Bethany in her favorite activity — painting. 86 LHS Is Here and There Left: Students gather in the Little Theatre for morning Bible Study. Below: Senior Jeff Johnson portrays a man of action in Mike Toay’s film Orb Quest. The orb is played by a former household light bulb. Bible Study Makes Impressions Early in the morning when many students are making their circular rounds of the LHS highways, some prefer to attend the Morning Bible Study in the Little Theater. Each day here at Lancaster High can begin with this refreshing start. These sessions involve not merely religious rap but also an uncensored recognition of common teen and adult problems. Cherie Mentz feels “it helped my day,” and Julie Casto comments that “the relaxed atmosphere and the availability of being able to relate with my peers gives my I day an exhilarating boost.” Jill Woods, who is the speaker on Wednesdays, recommends that the Bible study would be good for everyone, and she goes on to say that it “starts my morning off to a good start.” Scriptures are read and discussed, in (addition to their application to life’s problems. Shauna George has only “fallen” by the Morning Bible Study, but she comments, “I do go to Sunday school.” Seniors are the majority in attendance, but they hope the future discovers many more i “bright eyed and bushy tailed • underclassmen. The hobbies and interests of students at L.H.S. are very diverse and numerous. Senior Mike Toay’s hobby is producing and directing movies. Mike first became interested in movie-making in 1977 when he was ten years old. It was his grandfather, William Logan, who first sparked his interest. Mike’s first movie, Orb Quest, took four months to plan and write. Shooting took two to three weeks. Then two weeks were spent on editing and one week was spent on the soundtrack. Mike says that he definitely plans to make a career out of moviemaking. He also stated that the making of Orb Quest was strictly a team effort. He needed a total of eighteen people! The plot of the movie involves an adventurer played by Scott Valentine who is searching for a glowing stone, the orb, which has mythical powers. During the quest he is followed by a character played by Jeff Johnson. When the adventurer finds the orb, Johnson’s character attempts to take it away. Later in the film, Kris Fausnaugh appears, playing Valentine’s aide who eventually turns on him. At the climax of the film, Valentine and Johnson team together to get the orb back from Fausnaugh. The story is soon to be continued into a sequel. Mike Toay’s “Orb Quest” LHS is Here and There 87 LHS Is... The Sophomore dance held February 23 contained several firsts: it was the first high school dance for the Sophomore class; it was held the first weekend after February’s foot of snow melted away; it was the first dance held in the school since the Bluegrass Dance flopped. But instead of further marring the student reputation, the sophomores displayed ‘‘very good behavior — (and) seemed to be very mature according to class advisor Sarah Henderly. The 150 in attendance also proved being an underclassman was no barrier to having a good time. “Purple Haze, a 60’s hit by Jimi Hendrix was the theme song of the Saturday night dance, and one of the many discs spun by DJ Johnny Garber. In addition to playing current favorites such as “Material Girl” and Heaven’s on Fire,” the DJ initiated a hula-hoop contest and other games. The cafeteria was decorated with silver and purple streamers, balloons and Christmas . . the underclass set an example . . lights by the Student Council, who also served cokes to the dancers. In addition to refreshments, couples taking a break from the action could step out into the hall to have their pictures taken by Jerry LeVeck. Though the dance featured no major events or infractions, it had variety. Break dancers performed for the crowd, and a great variety of dress was shown. At the informal dance, attire varied from the norm to neon and off the shoulder gowns for girls, and parachute wear, double breasted pinstriped suits and jean jackets for guys. Feelings were positive about the dance. Chris Olds thought it was “all right,” while Wayne Bunce (who wore a corsage on his jean jacket) claimed to have had a great time.” It appears, for a switch, the underclass set an example for the upperclass.

An audience of 650 was treated to a night of great entertainment culminating with the awarding of the titles of Mr. and Ms. LHS” by 1984s Mr. LHS. Evan “Skeeter Saunders. The judges, bodybuilder Annie Foote, restaurateur Bob Grilli and singer Garland Snyder selected junior Keith Bebout, and senior Barbie Rosser as the students with the right combination of poise, personality and talent. Chosen as runners-up in the field of 12 were Brent North (in his second contest appearance) and Holly Weekley. Pageant founder and yearbook advisor Dave Stockum commented that This year’s contest was the best so far. Much credit for this goes to Susan Prosch and the fine job she did producing the show. Likewise, the quality of the contestants; consequently, the competition was super. The show opened with the modeling of casual wear from Jeansvillo and Keith’s and a question and answer period with MC Lisa Dill of WLOH WHOK Radio. This was followed by the first talent segment featuring lip-synchers inspired by the T.V. program Puttin’ on the Hits.” Kelly Brannon and Amy Frazier danced to Madonna and Cyndi Lauper, and Holly Weekley electrified with Sheena Easton’s “Strut.” In the guy’s competition, Jon Ted Davis on “What is your best advice: D on't talk to strangers'.” Schorr held an Aerosmith concert and Brent North drove the crowd wild by performing “Old Time Rock and Roll” as Tom Cruise did in Risky Business — in just an oxford and briefs. The audience continued to be vocal throughout the beachwear segment which featured daring swim attire and, due to some unusually warm April weather, tanned bodies. The contestants rested as judge Garland Snyder of the Lancaster Men’s Chorus took the stage to perform If I Were A Rich Man.” The second part of the show began with a variety of acts by the contestants: everything from Rob Wright’s martial arts show to Barb Rosser’s country “clogging dance. Wendi Howell and Dawnice Beckley entertained with energetic dances and Ted Davis with some rock n’ roll singing. Mark McCune and Keith Bebout demonstrated their acting abilities — Mark with the skit “Who’s on First?” and Keith with an emotional mime routine. The exhibition’s finale was the formal wear presentation with the tuxes and gowns provided by Wyman’s and Monica’s. After the contestants’ final runway walk, titles were awarded, as were the $50 grand prizes. iffr. LHS Keith Bebout iffs. LHS Barb Bosser Top Left: Not bad Keith, not bad at all!

The musical, starring Cindy Lamb as the extravagantly liberal Mame, was performed April 18, 19, and 20, under the direct ion of Warren W. Buskirk. Mame, as the story goes, suddenly inherits her nephew Patrick (Jamie Culver) to raise. As part of the jet-set world of the Roaring 20s, Mame scarcely knows the ins-and-outs of raising such a small lad. However, she gives it a whirl. Through many obstacles including the hoy’s trustee, the snobbish society hanker Dwight Babcock (Dave Medsker), Mame still raises Patrick into a fine, young gent leman. One of Maine’s dilemmas proves to he the Stock Market Crash, and, in an attempt to recoup her finances, she takes a job as a manicurist, where she meets her rich Southern husband-to-be-Beauregard Jackson Pickett Burnside (Darren Hurst). Their round-the-world honeymoon is halted when Beau falls off a mountain. Mame returns to her New York home a rich widow and finds the grown-up Patrick (Mike Coakley) involved with a dim-bulb Connecticut deb (Karen Strohmeyer) in rebellion against Marne’s wild living. How Mame convinces Patrick he should live-it-up” and not marry into the hypocritical Upson family is the conclusion of the story. Director Warren Buskirk had only superlatives to describe the musical. “The performance was superb,” he said, as was Cindy Lamb as Mame. She did everything I wanted. Also singled out for Buskirk’s Blaudits were Jamie Culver, Neils lansen as the butler Ito, and Joleen Winegardener as the alcoholic actress Vera Charles. Outstanding backstage, according to the director, were Stage Manager Angie Agganisand Student Director Karen Kasler. 104 LHS Presents “Mame” Oppfysite Page: Top: Act I ends with the production number Marne featuring a simulated fox-hunt at Beaus plantation, Peckerwood.

Lower Left: Coach Terry Farmer shares statistics with Cherie Mentz on way to regional game. Below: Karen Wohlfarth takes position. From what seemed to be a disaster (nine girls quitting the LHS fast-pitch softball organization) emerged seven girls — a team — not a group of players — but a united team determined to win, said Coach Terry Farmer. The team of seven grew to nine with the help of two freshmen, and despite the adversity of the walk-out won a COL doubleheader against Zanesville the next day. Coach Terry Fanner characterized the team spirit and unity as being “great” starting April 27. The season ended with 22 wins, five losses, a record Farmer is proud of, considering the pressure of having five starters quit. The softball team went on to win the COL, Sectional and District Tournaments. Unfortunately, the team met their most difficult match in regional action against Westerville North. This game produced the biggest loss for the team. (It all started when the team arrived 30 minutes later than planned because of brakes going out on the bus which transported the team). Then the young LHS team met its match against the excellent pitching of junior Kandi Carter, stated Coach Farmer. The coach believes his most exhilarating moment came when the team of two seniors, three juniors, two sophomores and two freshmen won the COL title and went to the regionals. The goals of the coach and team were to win the state and COL as well as have a winning record. The team, united behind Coach Farmer achieved the latter two goals with much pride, according to Lisa Carr, senior team member. The team began each game by yelling, “Hey ... one, two, three — TEAMWORK!” in their small huddle. Their cheer implied three basic desires: to win for themselves; to win for Coach Farmer; and to prove they could win even without the nine who quit.

This year, the 20th running of this event, 11 teams showed up to give ILancaster much competition. I Lancaster finished with 111 points in the open category and 96 points in the Relay category, the first team to win both since 1982. We finished first in several events, some of those being, the Mile, 2,200 meter relay, discus and shotput. According to Coach Oertman the overall best event was the 1.600 meter relay with a time of 3.263 minutes run by Cox, Conroy, Dille. and Valentine. Sean Whittington had a great meet with throws of 60 6 in the shot and 170'8 in the discus. The organization of the meet was excellent, said Coach Oertman. “With 60- 80 officials there it was efficiently officiated. Oertman has been coaching for 15 years now and took over head coach in 1982. He enjoys coaching very much and added that he expects the Fulton Relays to grow larger and Iwcome more competitive each year. The Fulton Relays is a community meet that the people of Lancaster can lie proud of, ended Oertman. Above: Thindad .Jim Hoskinson completes a smooth handoff to Mike Smith in the 2200- meter relay. Forgotten Mumps (Shots) Plague LHS Students .. we find that your child has one or more of the following problems: (1) does not have the required immunizations, (2) was given the immunizations on the wrong date for compliance, or (3) did not have the proper number of doses of the vaccine.” In other words, if you have not been immunized for mumps, the time is now. Hundreds of LHS students were greeted in the spring with a form letter from Assistant Superintendent Frank R. Binni, stipulating that proof of immunity or immunization was needed in 10 days lest students be “excluded” from school. The alternative? A trip to the doctor for a mumps shot, proving that it was not all over after you bit that nurse in kindergarten. And so was launched a drive to immunize the school, with Mr. Barr daily berating students delinquent in their obligations. The impact was felt first by seniors whose graduation hung in the balance. The immunization drive was part of a new Ohio law which added mumps to the list of diseases students must be immunized for. LHS attempts at meeting the new state law were received moderately; some are still not in compliance. Below: Senior Jon Schorr receives an all clear from the school nurse in reference to his mumps immunization. 110 LHS is Here and There Humanities Tour A prime feature of the program in I Humanities Seminar each year is the field trip, Which took place this year May 10. As has been the pattern for the past four years, three places f were visited: Forest Rose School, the First Congregational Church in Columbus, and the Columbus Museum of Art. The tour at Forest Rose School was conducted this year by Mr. Roy Johnson, the principal. Included were visits to various classroom settings, one of which contained a small number of students with learning disabilities so severe that it was necessary for them to receive direct and constant care from their teachers on a one-on-one basis. Most Seminar members have experienced shedding a few tears at Forest Rose in response to the plight of handicapped students, as well as in admiration for their rosy determination to learn despite their problem. The Congregational Church offers aesthetic experiences in architecture and music. Built in the shape of a cross, it resembles a small cathedral. The organist, Mr. Dene Barnard, again this year gave a forty-minute presentation demonstrating the many and varied sounds which the handbuilt German import organ can make, especially when Bach is played. The field trip was completed with the annual tour of the Columbus Museum of Art. Seminar members were divided into three groups and conducted through the various period displays by docents for each group. A special showing this year was a series of miniat ure rooms containing furniture and other appointments representing the century and place depicted. Humanities Seminar expresses appreciation to those parents who volunteer each year to jdrive on the field trip or who contribute vans to be driven by someone else.

Below: Senior Independent Study students Joe Karoscikand Cindy Lamb await Biorhythms customers in the GAC. Astrology Alternative — Biorhythms! Maybe you have wondered why your friends ignore you on certain days of the week. Possibly, you are curious as to why your intellectual ability does not reach its potential on some days. A group of LHS students designed a system to make you aware of what kind of day is ahead of you. The Independent Study students sold biorhythms this year to raise money for the awards given out at the end of the year. By using the date of birth of a student and a computer, they were able to plot the biorhythms of LHS students. The biorhythms consisted of three parts: the physical, emotional, and intellectual cycles of the students. By looking at these cycles, the students can then see when they will have exceptional or poor performances in each of the three areas. If you would rather know what you must face each day, participate in this program next year!

Except for those two players, most of the team members had no experience in singles or doubles. Despite the lack of experience the team had five people on the All-C.O.L. team: Jason Clark, number three in singles; Jim Bowling and Jon Clark, number one in doubles; Tom Hillberry and Mark Charles, number two in doubles. The team was second in the C.O.L. and finished the season with an 8-6 record. The team had some excellent competition from teams such as: Watterson, Columbus Academy, Marietta, and Zanesville which had two nationally-ranked players, according to Coach Rod Ishida. “We had two good wins against Zanesville 3-2, and beat Chillicothe 5-0,” Coach Ishida added. Interestingly the team never lost 5-0, according to Senior Jason Clark. Most of the team’s goals were met this season. “We showed improvement with each match,” commented Coach Ishida. “We also had Jason Clark and Mike Gilmore in the District,” he added. The All-C.O.L. Doubles team of Jon Clark and Jim Bowling had a 10-4 dual meet record and a 1-1 tournament record, while the All-C.O.L. Second Doubles team of Tim Hillberry and Mark Charles had a 13-1 dual record and 0-1 tournament record. Jason Clark, All-C.O.L. Singles player, had a 9-5 dual meet record and 4-4 tournament record. Mike Gilmore and Jason Clark made it as a doubles team to the District Tournament where they were defeated in the first round. So, all in all, the Lancaster Tennis Team had a good year in 1985. LHS is Tennis 113 Some students at tancaster High School never really leave their home influences behind when they attend high school; they attend right along with a family member — one, who, fortunately or unfortunately, as the case may be, is also a teacher! Some 13 students fall into the category of being a “faculty child.” Included are Cindy Dufeu, daughter of Roger Dufeu; Cindi Hammer, daughter of Jean Hammer; Mike Mulrooncy, son of Ray Mulrooney; Mike Posey, son of Jim Posey; Ron Reall, son of Bob Reali; Jenny Redman, daughter of Tom Redman; Beau Reid, son of Arden Reid; Jeff Snoke, son of Dennis Snoke; Ben VanGundy. step-son of Joellcn VanGundy; Mike and Betsy Wagner, son and daughter of Ann Mae Wagner; Susan Watson, daughter of John Watson; and Lisa Young, daughter of John Young. In addition, three faculty couples are on the staff as well as one pair of faculty brothers — the Stockums! These include Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Rainford, and Mr. and Mrs. Ventura. But that's not the end of the “close ties” that exist here — there is also a “faculty family” — Mr. and Mrs. Brown and their children, Jana and Mark. When asked how Mike Posey feels about his I)ad being with him at LHS, he states, “I love my Dad and I'm glad he's here.” Mike feels that when he needs something, for example, money, food, or clothes, his Dad is there. Because of his Dad’s presence he feels that he is more encouraged to maintain his “boy scout” attitude and stay out of trouble. Mrs. Brown, Mark and Jana’s mother feels that having the family together during the day as well as the night is one heck of a great way to keep unified and close. With the Wagners, the situation is a common one — at least it would be for most teens whose parent(s) played a part of their high school life. Both Betsy ana Mike love their mom with all their hearts, but “school is just not the place for parents to be. too.” By Robin Walker Above: The Stockum brothers exhibit their brotherly love — of football.

IGHTOF QNE On May 24, 1985 the LHS Drama Club presented its annual Night of One-Acts in the little theater. The play Red Carnations was directed by Joel Floyd. His cast included Davy Tingler, Moriah Haines, and Norman Kemper. The play was fairly light-hearted as we watched a father “check out his daughter's prospective date. As the young boy is mixed up in a hoax 'identity crisis,’ the father learns a lot about the boy and the couple go off happily. Where Have All The Lightning Bugs Gone? was directed by Mr. Warren Buskirk and starred Mike Coakley and Karen Kasler. As two strangers meet in a park, they pretend to be different characters. This process of communication helps them to explore beliefs and ideas that, under normal circumstances: never would have been revealed. The Purple Doorknob, directed by Karen Strohmeyer featured a cast of Cindy Lamb, Bet h Rodenbaugh.and Jennie Brunswick. Beth, a Hollywood actress, by chance, visits an invalid woman played by Cindy. The old woman welcomes a new person into her heart. The actress' vitality helps the woman to remember that even if her body didn’t function well, inside, her mind was very much alive. Cindy Lamb was the director of the last play The Dear Departed. This play had the largest cast consisting of Liz Miller, Andrew Stevenson, Susan Prosch, Connie Warnock, Randy Miller, and Keith Zellers. 'Phis is a very amusing story as we see two sisters fighting greedily over their dead father’s belongings, in the wake of his death. Ironically, however, there has been a big mistake as their father is not dead, simply asleep. He foils their plans which just goes to prove the old saying, “don’t count your chickens before they hatch!” The evening was successful and each play showed some very promising talents.

After a great season they achieved the title of State Runner-Up for the third time, which is more than any other AAA school in the State meet history, according to Oehrtman. Doug Conroy’s fantastic running brought him second in the State in the 800 meter run. “Coming in second came through running under a good coach,” said Doug. Sean Whittington placed first in the State in Shot Put. Sean credits his success to all the help he received from Coach Henwood and through hard work and dedication. David Valentine a member of the 3,200 meter relay team that placed sixth in the State commented, other team members that wrere involved in the relay were a big asset. All of our pre-season goals were met. said Coach Oehrtman, “C.O.L. for the third consecutive year, the District title for the second year, and the regional for the second year.” The Gales had 14 returning starters from the 1984 season. After a slow first half of the season, We had a winning and championship attitude throughout the second half, said Oehrtman. The most challenging efforts of the Gales came in the State Championship where they performed well, but were unable to accomplish individual goals. Many awards were given away for the season: Most Valuable Team Member and Distance Runner, Doug Conroy. Most Valuable Field Event Performer, Sean Whittington. Most Valuable Hurdler Sprinter, Scott Cox. John Smith received the Outstanding Sophomore Award. Oehrtman put 23 years as an athlete and coach of field and track behind the team’s 6-0 dual meet record and other team distinctions. “We have a great track and I «eld tradition in Lancaster, good athletes who work hard at their sport, and a good coaching staff. We are very proud of our history and our present success, said Coach Oehrt man in summary.

Besides I final- ly got to see the ocean!” — Laura Puhl — Band Finds While most of the students of LHS were enduring the dreaded make-up snow days and less than wonderful weather, around 200 marching hand of gold members were dealing with another problem; sunburn. This is now the Band of Gold’s trip to Florida started out, after a grueling 25 hour bus ride. The first day the band enjoyed a sunny afternoon at Wet-n-Wild, a water amusement park. The second day in Florida was spent exploring the world and earth’s future at the Epcot Center. Everyone enjoyed the Epcot Center; Morocco was Sophomore Jackie Musick’s favorite stop. On the third day the band went to Walt Disney World, where everybody bought those infamous Mickey Mouse sweat-shirts. The high point of the trip was marching in the night-time Electric Light parade at Walt Disney. The last day in Florida was spent at Ormand Beach. Everyone tried to catch the Sun!! their last few Florida sun rays before leaving to come back to Ohio and the cold weather. The trip was very successful with only a few problems and perfect weather. There were only the usual complaints like there was just too much to do. according to Senior Joe Karoscik. Seniors Kisten Marquis and Diana Keaton both agree that the chaperones could have been a little nicer and less strict.

Florida was the destination of the some 14 students of the Special Education Class along with their teachers. They left for the sunny shores of Florida on May 20, and returned May 23. Students making the trip were: David Fosnaugh, Sarah Lawrence, Lisa Pressdee, Karl Roush, Milo Whipps, Andrea Smith, Tina Brown, Terra Hamilton, Charles Headley, Rod Hutchinson, Robert Mace, John Reeves, Robert Specht, and Dean Walker. An exciting time was shared by all while visiting Disney World, Epcot Center, and Kennedy Space Center. Determining who was able to go was not an easy choice for teachers, Patti Ott, Joni Wanderstock, and Denise Cordle, but the grades, the attendance, and the behavior played an important part in their decision. The hard work of the students in selling candy and Christmas ornaments paid off because they had many new experiences to help make their trip a success. Among the trip’s firsts were their air flight (last year they took a bus), the subway ride, and the monorail experience. The trip was more than just fun and good times.

Right: Kelly Kumler strides to victory. ■ wanted to win the C.O.L., do better in the ® ■ I district meet than we did last year and send more people to the state meet than wfc did last year,” said Coach Nancy Strickland of the ® Gale Girl Thinclads. Of these goals, she was able to realize two, by winning the COL and recapturing the district title after being a disappointing fifth last year. With 10 returning starters the nine-year coach was able to rack up a 6-win, 1-loss dual meet record. Strickland cited the Pickerington and Worthington Invitationals as the most difficult. “The competition was very good and a total team effort was needed to place as high as we did,” she said. The Gale Girls broke a number of records this year, including Anita Fox in the shot put, Nickie George in the discus, and Michelle Ours in the long jump; breaking running records were Amy Powhida, Cathy Dye, Barb Rosser; Randi Hall, and the shuttle hurdles relay team of Randi Hall, Barb Rosser, Lori Waugh, and Michelle Ours. Strickland was most excited about winning the district meet. “I didn’t really expect to win,” she said, “because Chillicothe had defeated us earlier in the season.” The only special problem with the team is one inherent in a sport involving more individual effort than team. Said Strickland, “I have found it difficult in a highly individualized sport like track to have team spirit for each other in their very different events. I wish it could be a continuous process rather than occasional, which is what it was.” Cathy Dye was named Most Valuable Distance Runner and high point winner. Randi Hall and Amy Powhida copped Most Valuable Sprinter-Hurdler, while Nickie George received Most Valuable Field Event Award. Most Valuble Player was Sherri Benedict.

However, despite this disappointing loss, the Gale Baseball Team can point proudly to a 9-0 COL season and as Coach Conrad said, they can “Wait ’til next year.” It was, in fact, the sixth time in the school’s history that the team made it to the State Finals and the second time in recent school history that final exams were nearly interrupted by Gale fever sweeping the school and students were excused early to attend the game. The threat of bad weather and high winds had many Gale fans crossing their fingers about early dismissal, but finally 11:30 a.m. arrived, and student fans flocked out of the building to head for Ohio State University. Unfortunately, the Gales were nearly shut-out and would have been except for some fifth inning hustle on the parts of Craig VanScoy and Jeff Young who singled in a run. The Gales, with an over-all record of 24-6, had their winners. With a batting average of .416, Mike Posey was named All-State as well as Most Valuable Player for the team. Named All-COL were Mike Posey, Jeff Young, Craig VanScoy, Jeff Brown, Rick Welch, Sean Doyle, Brent Lambert and Chuck Cave, who as starting pitcher had an ERA of 1.5. All-District players were Sean Doyle, Mike Posey, Chuck Cave and Jeff Young. Named Most-Improved Player was Rob Brill, while Outstanding Sophomore Award went to Brent Lambert, who will be back pitching for the Gales next year. Beau Reid copped Fireman of the Year honors for “most saves.” Early in the season Conrad pointed out some disappointments during the off-season with weather problems and scheduling difficulties, and he appeared concerned that “the kids haven’t been able to work as hard as they would like. Conrad further cited his goals for the season as winning the COL, going undefeated, winning at least 20 games and winning the sectionals. He added, “Even a regional is not an unrealistic goal.

Lowery Award of Verbal Excellence, established by the alumni of the Class of 1959. The first recipient of this award in honor of the former principal of LHS was Robert (Ron) Real!. Ron had the highest combined score on the PSAT and SAT tests. Principals Barr, Leightenheimer, Burgess, Watson and Bailey alternated in presenting numerous other awards to members of the student body. Students maintaining perfect attendance for the 1984-85 school year “I was honored to receive the award and to be recognized for my hard work over the years.” — Ron Reall received certificates. The Sophomore Class led with 46 students; the Junior Class followed with 43, and the Senior Class fell behind with 21. The sophomore scholarship list included ten students who had maintained a 4.0 average three out of three semesters; the juniors numbered 29 for five out of five semesters, and the seniors sported seven maintaining a 4.0 seven out of seven semesters. The National Merit Scholarship Program recognized three scholars who scored in the top 5 per cent of the more than one million participants in the testing program. Genevieve Huston scored in the top 1 per cent and is a finalist for a Merit Scholarship. Dirk Hines and Robert Reall were recognized for being in the top 5 per cent Vocational Awards of Distinction were given to nineteen students of the vocational area of the high school. The evening ended with closing remarks about Scholastic Recognition Week. Then, cookies and punch were served to all after the ceremony.

As the one hundred and thirty- third class to graduate from Lancaster High School began its processional, the rains began to pelt graduates, band and onlookers alike, forcing an abridged version of the traditional ceremony. In fact, for the first time in everyone’s memory, the commencement speaker did not speak! Mr. John McConnell, chairman of the board of Worthington Industries, scheduled to give the class address, remained simply a platform guest, his speech falling victim to the inclement weather. Instead, diplomas were issued early to the 432 graduates, by now dripping wet from the rain. Ironically, the weather had been perfect for the better part of the day, and officials had no way to predict . . Rain on their parade 59 such a downpour. Valedictorians did have an opportunity to speak. These, numbering six, included Kim Bankes, Genevieve Huston, Jane King, Tom Sugimoto, Lori Waugh and Mike Smith. Salutatorian was Cindy Barker. The Invocation and Benediction were given by Reverend James H. Heil, pastor of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church. The Sermonette was delivered by Reverend Richard G. Riedel, pastor of First United Presbyterian Church. The Commencement Band, directed by William Wittman, and the Symphonic Choir and Singing Gales, directed by Mary Lou Turner, performed between the raindrops.

There was a turnout of over 200 for the dance. — Jon Clark — SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS - Vice- President Doug Cramer, President Jon Clark, Treasurer John Jones and Secretary Amy Bellisari. 140 LHS is Sophomores Joseph Abel Kevin Abram Micheal Adams Angela Agganis Tracy Alspaugh Penny Altman Kelley Anders Melissa Anderson Timothy Anderson Shelly Anneshansley Deborah Anthony April Appenzeller Shaun Arehart Julie Armbruster Eric Armstrong I annc Asbcll Laurel Austin Charles Azbell Aaron Bailes Cheri Bainter Rebecca Baker Tracy Baker Jeffrey Ball Becky Ballard Julia Barber Gregory Barber Vicki Bare Craig Barr Nicole Barrett Amy Beatty Ronna Bell Amy Bellisari Amy Benedetto Thomas Bennett Laura Biggum Jonathan Bigham Michele Bininger I eetoria Bivens Amy Blake Gregory Blum Jodi Boch Melissa Bosch Terry Bosworth James Bowling Bryan Bradford Steve Bradford Julie Breckenridge Richard Brenstuhl Lori Brisker Tenna Brock Shari Browning Richard Brucker Jennifer Brunswick Scott Buchanan Wayne Bunce Karen Burnside Diana Burris Kristy Bush Karen Butcher Dennis Call Lisa Campbell Sherry Canfield Kurt Carey LHS Is Sophomores 141 Reed Carpenter Penny Clagg Jonathan Clark Lisa Clark Shannan Clark Melissa Clements Inho Clum David Cochran Ruth Combs Tim Combs Lisa Conkle Dawn Conrad Deborah Cook John Cook Thomas Cooney Ronald Cooper Kristine Cordlc Kim Corner Steve Cotterman Lisa Cowgill Ix� ra Cowgill Douglas Cramer Johnny Crawford David Cruit Melissa Culp Tammy Culp Daniel Culver Amy Cummans Ann Custer Robert Daniels Tresa Daubenmire Jeffrey Davis Jennifer Davis Elizabeth Delong Todd Delong Angelo Deneen John Dennison Tracey Denny William Dcvault Angela Dille Jcre Dishon Christine Diltoe David Donley Doug Dorwart Scott Douglas Pat Dowdy Victoria Dowdy Sina Doyle I anne Dragoo Anthony Dunn Stephanie Dye Greg Eads Michaela Ebert Traci Ehorn Brenda Kllerman Erin Elliott Angela Erwin Douglas Evans Melanie Evans Michael Evans Stephanie Fairchild Bryan Farley Ernest Farley 142 LHS Is Sophomores Troy Figgina Sandra Fisher Jenna Fitchpatrick Amy Flick Tamara Flood David Fosnaugh Anita Fox Brian Frank Beth Frasure Amy Frazier Nancy Frazier Greg Freeman Terrence Friesncr James Furey Iairena Gambill Kirk Gardner Rachael Gardner Trent Gardner Amy Gatz Jeffrey Gawell Nichol George Dori Gerdes Jim Good Jeffrey Gorby Jim Graham Mark Graham Angela Grant Constance Gray Donna Cribble Molly Griffin Kevin Griffith Cheri Grove Patricia Haley Juliet Hall William Hall Anthony Hanna Fredrick Hanna Tonya Hanson Melissa Harbaugh Barbara Hardwick Thomas Harmon Karrie Hamer Sharon Harris Stacy Harvey Hope Hawkins Jessica Hecker Anthony Hedges LHS Is Sophomores 143 Jill Hedges Jodi Hedges Bryan Helbcr Julie Helmick Douglas Helwig Thomas Herzog Kevin Hess Michelle Heston 'Pom Heston Terry Hickman Charles Hictikko Brenda Hiles Samuel Hiles Michael Hill Jennifer Hillberry Charles Hillyer Michelle Hilyard Darcic Hines Kimberly Hines Craig Hoffman Kary Holhrook Jason Hollingshead Richard Holt Craig Householder Inaura Howell Tina Hudnall Kurt Hummel Larry Hupp Sherry Hupp Chip Hurley John Huston Marc Huston Mary Hutslcr Jim Icenhour Michelle Irvin Michael Jackson Teresa Jacobs Greg Jenkins Karen Johnson Ronald Johnson Tracy Johnson Brian Jones Eric Jones John Jones Sam Jones Patrick Joos Jennifer N.

Sophomores Win Big LHS Is Sophomores 149 I feel the 84-85 school year was a very successful one for the Class of 86. Although a not-so-successful float in the rankings (3rd), the idea of a generic float took us into a new dimension in the art of float building. (And let’s not forget to credit the WHIGS with their fine float perfor- mance!) Our fund raiser, the Magazine Sale, was a pretty successful campaign in which Jack Bowling led our class in sales. Our class prom “One More Night” proved to be successful with nicely- decorated tables and ceilings while featuring music by the local band Ezra Pound.” Next year looks very promis- ing for the Seniors of ’86, and there’s always the idea of an invisible float.

Jack Bowling, who sold $513.45 worth of magazines, received a portable television for his efforts. The second highest seller was Ty Clark who received a stereo headphone cassette player. Mindi Byrum was the third highest seller, and she received a G.E. AM FM electric digital clock radio. Mr. Stull’s homeroom sold the most magazines, and they received a pizza party. The junior class made $2700 from this sale. Prizes were also given for the daily high sellers and persons who sold twelve items. The daily high sellers and their prizes are: Ty Clark — solar calculator with case, Cathy Dye — one piece telephone, Sherri Kenney — AM FM pocket radio, Dave Dozer — ANSCO pocket camera, Mindi Byrum — one piece telephone, Jack Bowling — one piece telephone, and Stacey Shaver — one piece telephone. The winners who sold twelve items are: Dave Dozer — plush unicorn, Kelly McKittrick — plush unicorn, Ty Clark — RCA music certificate, and Mindi Byrum — RCA music certificate. Junior Class advisor Warren Buskirk presents the enterprising Jack Bowling with his prize. ' LHS Is Juniors 163 When you look back on the class of 1985 I think you find a group of overachievers. We started off the year by win- ning the float contest for the second year in a row. We then won the first and only spirit stick contest of the year. The strongest point of the year had to be the sporting teams and various clubs. Most of them were led by seniors. The majority of the sporting teams took the C.O.L. title, with the basket- ball team receiving the most glory as regional runner-up. Those who did not par- ticipate in sports showed they could handle a challenge when it came to raising money. The class outdid any other class before it in every fund raiser we had. This made it possible for us to have our prom at the K of C, the first time any prom has been away from the high school in years. As our last school year comes to an end, stop for a second and remember all the good times, and then say “good-bye L.H.S ” — Randy Reese — SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS — President Randy Reese.

Intended to be a harmless food product and money-maker, they prove to be a hin- drance to custodians and a great joy to those who abuse the insidious dinner rolls. The 65c-a-dozen rolls began their at- tack in February as Seniors returning from snow days were handed the task of selling rolls to raise money for their Senior Class party, by coercing friends, relatives and unsuspecting sophomores. The class of 1985 sold over 24,000 dozen rolls in less than a week. Top salesmen were James Conkey with 542 dozen, Bryan Westenbarger with 500, Alan Gompf with 405, and Wayne North with 347 dozen; all received $25. High- selling classes were those of Mr. Busk irk, and Mr. Coles. The rolls invaded L.U.S. on Thurs- day. March 14. Senior men rallied to stack and load the rolls baked by Kroger's Grocery; and all seniors were dismissed early to deliver them. Friday, March 15, was unofficially Roll Day, as rolls met their fates — in drinking fountains, halls, lockers, teachers' desks, and on the bottoms of shoes. Many were even eaten, despite Jill Derryberry's comment that the rolls are tasteless, tend to make one sick after a dozen, and are better used as missiles.

LHS Is Seniors 191 We’ve been hearing for the past several months that high schools are not teaching the students enough. Frankly, I’m amazed that we’re able to teach students anything. Have you seen our competition lately? Here’s a sample: 1. When you’re 15 and a sophomore, what's more important: a driver’s license or a gerund? Didn’t have to think long about that one, did you? 2. At long last, you’ve turned 16 and you’re now behind the wheel. The only problem is that it is not your car; it’s your parents’. Somehow you’re just not the equal of the students who have their own car. 3. Ah, here’s the solution to 2: a job. True, it gets you the money for the car and maybe even a little for extras. But, how do you explain that to the history teacher who woke you up to inform you that the class change was 15 minutes ago? Oh well. You’re earning your own money. Somehow, losing that sleep seems worth it. 4. The opposite sex is guaranteed to take precedence over school and homework every time. Face it; how much teaching can go on when a girl keeps writing a boy’s name over and over, or a boy keeps sighing at a girl’s photo until his glasses fog up? 5. If you’ve been around high school students lately, you know the one thing that nearly everyone loves is a good par- ty. As a matter of fact, Monday and Tuesday are usually reserved for discuss- ing last weekend’s parties, and the rest of the week is reserved for dreaming about the upcoming parties. That’s just a partial list, but there’s one thing left to say that I deliberately left for last. Were you and your friends all that different when you were in school? Growing up is just about the same for every teenager, no matter what the generation. True, the pressure to in- dulge in alcohol and drugs has gotten worse, but things have stayed pretty much the same in terms of wanting to fit in and being liked. I’ll agree that some students in high school are there to learn as much as they can and are willing to put in long hours of study. In all honesty, however, students like that are in the minority and always have been. As I said, it's a wonder that we can teach anything at all or that any teacher in the history of mankind has ever taught anything. It’s simply a limitation that we teachers have to accept and work around.

In fact, as we look back over the year, we might characterize it as one of challenge — challenge to our own sense of flexibility in the face of change. And the changes that we faced were many. For one thing new state minimum standards, especially those imposed upon length of school day and lengt h of school year for all students, forced you to grit your teeth, grin and bear it, and adapt. Understandably, you were disgruntled; understandably, you saw all of tnese regulations as aimed at you personally; understandably, you regretted the passing of what had become traditions in our school. And as if the imposition of new standards wasn’t enough, you had to lose Spring Break as well. Though you got your time off in bits and pieces, somehow getting those days off in bitter cold weather was not quite the same as getting a full week off in the spring with the sun shining. And if you were upset — believe me, so was the entire staff! However, the most important thing for all of us to remember is how well we actually weathered these problems. In fact, I must congratulate the student body — and especially the seniors (who felt most affected) on their behavior in the face of change. Ultimately, you were able to adjust and perhaps in later years will even be able to evaluate these changes in light of their intended purpose — the bettering of education and the bettering of your own future lives.

It brought smiles to the faces of the people at the Lancaster Health Care Center on May 14. On May 15, the petting zoo was held at the Vo Ag Shop and was open to local Day Care Centers and Kindergarten. According to Vo-Ag teacher Kevin Sheppard, the elderly at the Lancaster Health Care Center were thoroughly excited about the animals. In fact, because of the enthusiasm of one patient who had grown up around horses, the students even brought a horse to her — in her room — a bold accomplishment! The petting zoo is an annual event sponsored by the Future Farmers. The Vo Ag students of Lancaster High School participated in this event. Among some interesting animals was a parrot which was brought in by Trisha Shonk. Norman Ream added to the zoo a display of bees. The other animals in the zoo consisted of: pigs, ducks, chickens, horses, rabbits, goats, dogs, and cows. Mr. Sheppard, organizer of the petting zoo, said that it was definitely a success. The petting zoo was free of charge for all those who attended. Above Left: Becky Bauman gets “tickled” over a kitten at the petting zoo.

At the beginning of the year she entertained everyone at the Talent Show by singing and playing on her guitar a song she composed herself. One thing she doesn’t understand is American students' obsession with dress- ing up for school; at her school in Germany people don’t really worry how they look; they are more casual. Niels Hanson, from Den- mark, has led a very active year at LHS. He became an impor- tant part of the Drama Club. He helped backstage with the three-act play Blithe Spirit and held a major role as Ito in the musical Mame. He also played soccer in the fall. Niels hopes to continue with the theater when he goes back to Denmark. From Cairo, Egypt, Lilian Sa- maan came to LHS. In Egypt, she attended a private all-girl school, so when she arrived here things were very different. Lilian received outstanding grades in classes like chemistry, physics, and biology. One thing that is American that she dislikes is pizza. LHS has really enjoyed having her as one of three students from around the world. “I like the friendliness of the people and I really en- joy the variety of good foods . . . ” — Martina Richter — '77 remember Connie, Grad Night and McDonald's. I'd like to take my friends home. ” — Niels Hansen — '7 like Lancaster because it is a small, quiet American town. The peo- ple are very friendly. ” — Lilian Samaan — J I 242 LHS is International I INTERNATIONAL Four Gales Are Exchange Students Next year, four LHS students will spend their time in a foreign country as exchange students. This is possible through the area Rotary Club. The Rotary Youth Exchange Program has just become active in the Lancaster area. Rotary families abroad provide housing, food, and a monthly allowance; the students agree to pay the cost of airfare. Sophomore Jackie Musick is going to Minden, West Germany. She will be living with Martina Richter, presently an exchange student at LHS. Martina has been giving Jackie German lessons to prepare her for her year. Jackie was able to receive enough credits this year to enable her to graduate with her class when she returns. Jackie is “anticipating an exciting and rewarding year in West Germany.” Davina Vaughn, also a sophomore, is leaving for Japan. She will be living on the northern island of Hokkaido. Davina will stay with two or three different families. Having always had an interest in going overseas, she is “very anxious and excited about experiencing the varied and different culture of Japan.” Another sophomore traveling abroad is Dan Culver. He will be going to Nasmos, Norway, a city not far from the Arctic Circle, to stay with the Aune family. Dan has always wanted to see the ways of life in other countries and thinks it will be a fun experience. He also hopes “to follow in the footsteps of past exchange student Phil Dye.” The only senior in the group is Shauna George, who will be going to Ristiina, Finland, Ristiina is a small town about 40 miles from the Russian border. She is very excited about Finland and being so close to the Russian border. She will have a chance to visit Leningrad, Russia, while in Europe. Shauna will be staying with the Valkonen family and to her relief “they do have a sauna.” By Shauna George Left: Davina Vaughn and Jackie Musick are two students from LHS who will experience life in a foreign country in the fall.

The 45 member body is elected to act in an advisory capacity to school administration, to provide for services, materials, and equipment that benefits the students not financed by the school, to provide experiences which will give recognition to students who have made outstanding contributions to the school, and to stimulate class, club, and school spirit. Elected as president of this year’s student council is Robyn Berry; as Vice President, Marty Valentine; as Secretary Gwen Myers; and as Treasurer, Kim Kumler. This year’s annual highlights were entertaining to students and helpful and charitable to the elderly. The coordination, planning, and financing of all events related to football and the Homecoming, such as the bonfire, provided the students with some fun before and after the games. The after-game dances provided the students with a place to celebrate the victorious basketball team after the games. Student Council also sold poinsettias to provide holiday cheer to nursing homes, hospitals, shut-ins, and the County Home. Their participation in the March of Dimes Walk-a- Thon raised funds for this organization to aid those afflicted by birth defects. LHS is Political 245 Key Club — Haw I: Cindy Barker, Brian Johnson.

HILANTROPIC----------- Key Club and Peer Advocates Serve Community KEY CLUB Two clubs at L.H.S. specialized in serving the community both at L.H.S. and in the city of Lancaster. The Key Club, headed by Dick Clark and Peer Advocates, headed by Larry Burgess, both assisted in improving the lives of others. Key Club works in association with the Kiwanis. As such, Key Club works with the community and the nation. Key Club helps out at the blood bank every month and held a blood bank at the school. They sold daffodils for the Cancer Society this spring. They help out at the library, also, by reading to children and assisting the librarian. This year Key Club sent Brian Johnson, a Key Club member, to state competition. Brian came away the winner in oratory. Peer Advocates are trained to listen to and advise students who have problems dealing with drugs and alcohol. Their program is called “adopt a class room.” Peer Advocates work mainly with elementary and junior high students, helping them deal with peer pressure pertaining to alcohol and drugs.

AFS typically works toward intercultural exchange, although this year’s organization has been somewhat inactive due to Advisor Bill Schroer’s longterm illness. However, once Mr. Schroer returned at the helm, students did hold several meetings at which Mr. Schroer showed his slides of Europe. The 40-member Latin Club was exceptionally active this year, involving itself in many activities both social and academic. On the academic side, students worked in competition at the Ohio Junior Classical League Convention, coming away with three trophies and fourteen ribbons. In addition, 23 LHS students took honors in the National Latin Exam. On the more social side, the Latin students held a Hallowe’en Party, an autumn banquet (hosting the Granville Latin Club), and a Spring Roman Banquet (in toga) with 12 Stanbery Latin students as slaves.” Clearly the purpose of Latin Club — “To prepare for the Classical League competition and to give students interested in the classics occasions to be together socially — was met!” Above Left: It’s nice lo have your own personal slave.

NTELLECTUAL: Keen Minds Ply Their Trades The keen minds of LHS, involved in such intellectual groups as the National Honor Society, the In the Know Team and the Chess Club, had a productive year. The 75-member National Honor Society expanded its numbers by 18 seniors and 28 juniors at their Nov. 26 induction ceremony. As a result of new National Honor Society regulations, the organization also added a service project this year. They publicized and helped to conduct the American Red Cross Blood Drive. The In the Know Team which competes against other schools in a test of academic knowledge, recall and speed, played this year in four different leagues. They participated at WOSU-TV, Columbus; at Ohio University’s College Prep Bowl, Athens; at OSU-Newark’s College Bowl, Newark; and at WHIZ-TV, Zanesville’s High School Honor Society. According to Roger Grossenbacher, one of the group’s advisors, the LHS team placed third among all AAA schools at Athens. Team members included Albert Ayers, Thomas Sugimoto, Keith Zellers, Ron Reall, Sandra Stonick, Lizbeth Miller, Joel Haynes and Eric Schwendeman. Albert Ayers earned the hardest-working-player award, while Thomas Sugimoto earned the most valuable player award. After organizing in late September of 1984, the Chess Team played an exhibition match with Big Walnut High School which we won 3-2. Another exhibition was played with the WLOH Disc Jockeys. They were crushed. From January through April, the Chess Team played on a stand-by basis with the newly reorganized Central Ohio Scholastic Chess League. The only official games played were in the Individual Speed Tourney during the last round of the league play. Walt Tucker won several matches and advanced to the final round of his bracket. The year ended on a dismal note when the Faculty Team beat the Chess Team 3-2 on May 15. i LHS is Intellectual 251 Dnjna Club - Front R-m Cindy t-amt . S«rrUry; Moriah Hain« .

Drama Club was headed by Mr. Warren Buskirk as advisor and Karen Kasler as this year's president. The first Drama Club-sponsored event was the annual talent contest. Winners of this contest were: Chandler Hall, first place, Kathleen Sharritts, second place, and the Beautyshop Quartet. On January 11 and 12, the curtains opened to a 3-act play by Noel Coward entitled, Blithe Spirit. The most publicized production of the year was the musical Mame which featured Senior Cindy Lamb in the title role. Thespian Troupe 1848 was headed by President Mike Coakley. In a joint effort with Drama Club, Thespian members were chosen as the directors of the annual One-Acts. Directors were Karen Strohmeyer, Cindy Lamb, Joel Floyd and Mr. Buskirk. The troupe honored Mrs. Virginia Benson at an induction by making her an honorary member. The LHS Forensics team was led by Bill Kennedy, Becky Hietikko, and Sandy Alspach. The team stormed through the year, taking several regular-season honors and advancing further than any previous LHS team at NFL Districts. Senior Heath Brown just missed qualifying for national competition in Extemporaneous Speakipg. In Persuasive Speaking Senior Keith Zellers advanced to finals at NFL Districts and Liz Miller placed second at OHSSL Districts. In debate, the LHS team found itself actively competing at the varsity level for the first time. The two-man team of Brian Johnson and Tom Mahon competed the entire season at varsity level, becoming the first LHS team to do so. In Lincoln-Douglas, Juniors Scott Richards and Joel Haynes participated neck-and-neck throughout the season to become two of the top Lincoln- Douglaser’s in the area, with Joel Haynes claiming first place at OHSSL Districts for the right to participate at States. LHS Forensic awards were achieved as follows: Outstanding Senior — Heath Brown; Outstanding Junior — Liz Miller; Outstanding Sophomore — David Kauffman; Rookie of the Year — Stephanie Severance; Events Alumni — Heath Brown; Debater of the Year — Brian Johnson; Lincoln-Douglas — both Joel Haynes and Scott Richards. Altogether, the LHS Performing Clubs backed-up the LHS high standards with a year to be proud of. « LHS is Performing 253 lV� iiy I. • F.rtl Row: Mr� . MillmytiNi. Kim Ranke . 1'nna Beery.

Athletic activities traditionally form the backbone of extracurricular functions at almost any high school, and LHS is not an exception to this rule. Varsitv L, G.A.A. and the newly-organized Ski Club Provided an all-season outlet for the energies of LHS students oth athletically and socially. Traditionally male-oriented, Varsity L took on a more feminine look this year with the inclusion of more and more girls whose varsity achievements rank high. Highlight of the Varsity L season was the trip to King’s Island May 12. The trip highlight, of course, was supplied by Steve Powhida who left his mark on the amusement park. G.A.A., the Girls’ Athletic Association, provided recreational, athletic and social opportunities for Gale girls. Girls worked hard toward their culminating activity, the G.A.A. Dance, held March 16 at which Penny Morehart was crowned queen. The Ski Club had a banner year! Off to a slow start, once the skies opened and the snow began to fall, it seemed as though it would never stop. In fact, the only thing that kept the club from functioning as smoothly as it might was the time off school for — of all t hings — too much snow. Pam Haley was the president of the Varsity “L”. Penny Morehart was the president of the G.A.A. The Ski Club was a newly organized group and did not have any officers. Altogether the year was a good one for the Gales’ athletic organizations.

The Independent Study Program at LHS nearly doubled its numbers this year over last as a result of increased emphasis on the program due to the State Minimum Standards’ demand for additional options to the regular curriculum. Some 64 students were served by this program throughout the year, according to Ann Bulger, program coordinator, and the program averaged 47 to 53 students per semester. Areas for Independent Study, according to Bulger, were (1) Academic, (2) Field Studies, (3) Direct Research, (4) Performing Arts and (5) Community Services. Students had to apply for the program and be accepted. They, then, worked with a teacher supervisor who helped students establish goals and methodology for their projects as well as criteria forjudging the success of the work. Individual projects were diverse, ranging from advanced industrial arts to directing plays for children to arranging and scoring music. Miss Bulger remarked, “We met the needs of two particular groups of students — those who had an interest that they wished to pursue NOW rather than wait until college, and those who simply did not find what they wished to study in the regular curriculum.” Awards were presented for outstanding Independent Study achievements at the end of the year. The Academic Award went to Tim Barnes for completion of the AP Computer course outside of regular classes; the Field Studies Award went to Doug Bosch for completion of a series of art work and Honorable Mention to Martha Touvell for the development of a winter walking tour at Alley Park. Community Service awards went to Joe Karoscik who completed a contract in broadcast journalism and Honorable Mention to Wilma Ward for determining the need level of first aid in Fairfield County. Cindy Lamb and Karen Kasler tied in receiving first award in Performing Arts. Advisors for winners included Mr. Jim Cowles, Ms. Debbie Coffelt, Mr. Larry Dow, Mr. Warren Buskirk and Miss Ann Bulger.

The year was outstanding primarily because of the club’s election to and participation in state and national levels of convention activity. Elected this year as National Voting Delegates, eligible to go to the National VICA Convention in Phoenix, Arizona, were Darren Hurst and Jennifer Drumm. Elected as voting delegates on the state level were Ben Anderson, Ed Chilcote, Melissa Arledge, Debbie Campbell, Tim Bussart and Tammy Glenn. Lindsey indicated that such representation is quite an honor for the local VICA. In addition, at the fall Southeast Regional Convention, Jennifer Drumm was elected Regional President and Kim Groves Regional Treasurer. This outstanding year also produced award winners in state convention competition. Winners included Tina Pierce (silver medal) and Darren Hurst (bronze medal). Receiving certificates of participation were Melissa Arledge, Jack Creiglow and Jerry Poling. Mr. Lindsey indicated that the 167-member organization can take pride in fulfilling its purpose — “To develop leadership, fellowship and healthy competition.” He went on to say that the organization helps to build good and worthy citizens. Mr. Lindsey advises the club along with Mr. Bill Brown. Officers include Robin Elick, president; Tim Bussart, vice- president; Kim Groves, treasurer; Melissa Arledge, secretary; Jennifer Drumm, parliamentarian; Ben Anderson, sergeant- at-arms; and Ted Noice, reporter.

I used to look for- ward to the opportunity to be released from school in May to prepare for graduation. Now I just stay here. I use to look for- ward to Senior Skip Day. I figure 12 x 180 days should certainly en- title the Senior Class to one day. ' lne movie Mischief, wmen was filmed in Central Ohio this past summer, premiered Feb. 7 in Col- umbus.

II. 12); Mirage (12) LHS is Senior Activities 271 Colophon (an inscription placed at the end of a book giving facts pertaining to its publication) I have come to the conclusion that anyone who volunteers to be on the Mirage Staff must lack something in judgment. Why else would one want to submit one’s self to a year’s worth of laboring in a former bathroom! Would they actually sign up if they knew they would be attending every school function with camera in hand and be assigned to herd sophomores during picture taking? I think not — but there must be a pull. And the pull — at least this year — must be the desire to publish an outstanding yearbook. And the credit for it goes to the many who erred in judgment. The staff this year, for the most part, was exceptional in organization and skill. They were rare in actually almost finishing the book before they finished the year. Staff notables include Lisa Carr, who improved our surroundings by painting the floor green, Andrew Stevenson, who answered all of our questions on men and life in general, Scott Valentine and Andy Wuertzer, the staffs “real men,” Pam Rarick, who sold over $700 worth of ads, Susan Prosch, who ran the “Mr. Miss LHS Contest” so that Mr. Stockum could concern himself with having a baby, and all the senior and junior women who kept a close eye on boys’ sports. And everyone deserves credit for unprecedented journalistic ability. The staff was not self-sufficient. They were dependent upon the help of advisors. Without them, they never would have done it! To be lauded are Dave “Smart One” Stockum and Mary K. Ventura, who pushed us into deadlines until our own lives and theirs were no longer worth living. Also deserving of credit is our entertaining Taylor Publishing representative, Wes Mirick. Outside the ersatz office, the Mirage received invaluable assistance from photographer Jerry LeVeck, who took numerous pictures for us and kept us in film. Also behind the lens for us was Eagle-Gazette photographer Dave Saunders, who sold us some of the excellent boys' basketball photos featured. And, of course, the students and staff of LHS should receive thanks — they are the book! Next year, my post is being handed over to Buffy Sheets and Pam Rarick, along with the desk and roller chair I still aspire to have. I hope they can live up to the standards set by this year’s staff — it was truly exemplary. Good luck and have fun — or drive Wes mad trying! Jill Derryberry• 272 LHS is Colophon 7
