DEDiciinum Mr. David S. Jess The 1980 ZEPHYR is dedicated with pride to Coach David Jess. Coach Jess is a part of the history of our school as a student and a Lear School graduate, class of 1971. He is now an integral, highly respected member of our faculty. His leadership qualities and sense of fair play have instilled within each of us positive values. HMy interest is in the future, because 1am going to spend the rest of my life there. Charles F. Kettering The FUTURE! This vast expanse of time fast approaching- what does it hold? As we stand on the brink of tomorrow contemplating what is to be, it behooves us to hrst take a backward glance at what has gone before. Looking back over our formative years we can see the great part our parents, families, and friends have played in contributing to our growth and development. Their unwavering love and emotional support have sustained us through the many trials and tribulations of growing up. But it is especially significant, in looking back, to see how our academic surroundings have infiuenced our lives. As seniors, we have been most fortunate in having sincere and dedicated teachers to provide us with a Firm foundation of knowledge. These fine educators constantly endeavored to establish an atmosphere conducive to. the expression of our creative ideas, abilities, and ambitions. Under the administrative guidance of the Lear School, we have been imbued with a high code of ethics. These positive values and attitudes will serve weil as a base for sustaining future relationships endowed with a mutual trust and respect. As the hrst graduating class of a new decade, we look forward with eager anticipation to opportunities that, heretofore, had not existed. Careers never before dreamed of are, today, within the grasp of those brave enough to strive for them. We are now prepared to pierce the curtain of the future and begin to shape our lives. Relying on our inner strength and intellect, we, the class of 1980, are confident that we can face with courage whatever comes our way. Open, ye portals of time, as we link our past and present to a triumphant future!

THE PURPOSE . . . to establish a civilization unlike any other in existence. After extensive examination by the famed Flakes Anonymous Testing Program, the Doctors JANE GOLD and MAUREEN ABITBOL, staff psychologists, posted the names of the crew and passengers of this historic Hight on the blackboard in room 24. The unique exterior design of the DMB-363 space shuttle came from the drawing boards of Architect DEAN BMW EISENBERG in association with TINA PROVENZANO, eminent interior artist, who is well known for her interpretation of coordinated cosmic colors. PIA REYMAN, Italian fashion designer, created a unisex Solar Sasson space suit with detachable booties for the Flight crew. On board the space craft, Commanders T. BAUER and V.

Wearing her latest creation, an ultraviolet velour jumpsuit, SUSAN BEHAR is chatting with Dental Ceramist JERI GOODKIN. Sitting across the aisle, Speech Therapist ALYSE ARONSTAMN is trying to pronounce the name of Economist lVIANOUCHEHR AZIZI. Directly behind them, DESMOND GILLMAN is discussing the cloning of astro-mice. Attorney JEFF SCHUSTER and his associates, LARRY GROLL and BONNE SCHEFLIN, offer their opinions on the legal implication of this procedure. Biomedical Engineer ISRAEL VAINSTEIN suggested that propagation could be speeded up by injecting clomiphene citrate into the proboscis. A strange bleeping noise alerted the passengers that they were T-minus 10 from liftoff. The uNO GUM CHEWING and HFASTEN YOUR HELMETS warnings were dashed in the forward compartment. T-minus 9. Hatches were hermetically sealed. T-minus 6 and counting. The remaining passengers were busy getting settled. T-minus 3. Journalist CINDY WOLOFSKY, mild-mannered reporter from the Satellite Sentinel, left Studio 54.4 to cover this event, while DEANIE GREENE of the Galaxy Gazzette attempted to relay her interviews via vidicon. GORDON and WARD, professionally known as the HA-LLL-ISON'S , were preparing a video transmission that would be shown at Mr. Subs. T-minus l. LIFTOFFllll! A cloud of magenta exhaust burst forth as DMB-363 rose into orbit. Clad in his size 12V2 Nike hightops, SCOTT SHAKTMAN was beaming his broadcast off the backboards of the launch pad as the rocket disappeared into the atmosphere. . . . 3 telestars later . . . TOUCHDOWN!!!!! Final destination, Planet Tarium. MITCHELL COLE, real estate broker, was the first to set foot on Tarium. He placed his llSediment for Sale sign next to the nearest crater. Contractor MICHAEL ENGLER immediately started work on his Cosmic Condo, and he was pleased to announce that the hrst ofhce cubicle would be occupied by the Emm Co., MARCELLO ZUCCOLILLO and MAYLEN ECHEVARRIA. Accountant MICHAEL SOSNER consulted Lawyers CINDY FITELSON and LISA SANDERS who felt that the paper work would be ua piece of cake. A micrometer away from Cosmic Condo, MARGARET FLEISHER opened her Giro Jean Boutique. TAMMY LANDA, fashion merchandiser, was hired as coordinator for these galactic garments. Marine Biologist RAMIRO MARTINEZ is preparing a descent into the mysterious depths of Ocean Beige- Aspen. His batosphere is fitted with water windows which were invented by Optometrist ERIC SEIDEL who has also perfected space spectacles for wayward sea turtles.

Standing on the distant shore is Engineer PHILIP FISHER who has earned a uB. S. degree. He is deciding whether he should open an Astro-Physical Observatory or a chird-period snack bar. Trained in the care and treatment of the Far-out-Flu and Senioritis, GAIL STANDER and CRYSTAL KUZNARIK were meeting with Psychologists LEOR RICHMAN and SCOTT BAUER to discuss their ail best selling book, PSYCHIC PHENOMENON OF MULTIPLE NUCLEI. ANDREA HORWITZ was anxious to have an autographed copy so that she could put the book on the shelves of the library in the new Multi-Educational school system, which would open in the season of the high moon. llPAM, PAM, wake up.

The nerves of the passengers began to grow, As the airport filled up with new fallen snow. Theucrew sat strapped in their seats with fear, That the runway in use would never be clear. HTower to plane, number 404, You'll have to sit and wait out the storm. The tower came back with the H0.K. to go, And 404 rolled out into the snow. uLadies and gentlemen this is Capt. Soloff, luck is our way, we're cleared for take-off. As the jet engines rolled to take off speed, The runway lights were in the lead. The plane had reached its desired speed height, Big 404 was ready for flight. H Plane to tower we're up and away away without a doubt. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Over, and Outll!!! Richard Lugash-l982 FRIENDSHIP Friendship. One of the things I value most in my life. Love comes and goes, but a true friend lasts forever. A true friend is someone that you can always turn to in good times and in bad. A true friend will always be there when you need them, and is someone who will never leave you in the cold. Carrie Singer-1982 An Original Myth: THE ORIGIN OF LEOPARD SPOTS Acidopholus was a male leopard. One day he was looking for food, when he came to a blackberry bush. He was so hungry he ate all the berries, and as he was going home he started to get big black spots on his golden fur. He tried to remove the spots, but could not succeed. When Acidophilus' children were born, they had spots as well. Many generations after them were also born with big black spots. That is how leopards got their spots!

I can create-destroy to do as I will In a second I can make time stand still. And who am I?-that's easy to see I'm an ordinary person, but I can be anything I want to be And what is this power-that I possess, but not alone You cannot touch it or find it wherever you may roam But if you really want it-itls yours-it's not found on this earth. You've had it within you-ever since birth but there are only some who use it, and those are a few. I know you're curious and want to know who? So I' will tell' you, it's all in your mind and if you think hard- it's your imagination- you'll find The powers, your imagination, your ability to dream. Just open your mind, and you'll see what I mean. I suggest you use it for it is real Fine Develop your imagination and then you too can shout HI did it-I've done it now the power is MINE!!!
