To almost anyone not en- gulfed Ijy the overwhelming spirit which unit- ed the students, this was simply another cli- che used to identify someone from Leesburg. To a true Jacket fan, though, it meant much more. It meant one had to wear orange and black once a week for three months, and Friday ' s lunch money was spent on ribbons which mimicked the planned opponents for the evening. Also, it was very likely one sat in the rain while hoarsely cheering with other wet bodies. Authentic s pirit required extreme devo- tion and a pride for the team. Chris Nygaard was often seen decked out from head to toe in orange and black apparel. Jacket-colored war paint and drawings of the mighty yellow jacket decorated the faces of Cynthia Dun can and Shawn Foster. At both JV and Varsi ty games Susie Morrison buzzed along the sidelines dressed as the team ' s mascot. Kevin Paulling, Dan Dickerson, and Amy Cox were just a few fans that attended events and cheered regularly. On game days, whirlwinds of orange and black swarmed over the entire campus. Jacket spirit always filled the air. Sure Gooo Jackets! was a household phrase, but it meant the Jacket fans were proud of their school. Michele Smith and Cheryl Cooper show their meaning of Jaclcet spirit after the pep rally while waiting to go home. Mrs. Junecko and all her boyfriends show their spirit on the day of the game. 2— OPEN! The Varsity Jackets huddle at the pep rally before the Eustis game to get psyched up for the game.

There were many different examples of friendship exhibited throughout Leesburg High. It was present around campus, at the football games, and also around town at such places as Main Street Connection and McDonalds. Inseparable buddies such as Russell Hayes and Jeff Keene, Dana Wheeler and Beth Sellars, and Rene Sanford and Trish Bissctt all shared a special bond of friendship. Of course there were also close-knit pals of the romantic sort. These included Paula Bull- ock and Durham Young, Steve Madden and Alcsa Atchley, and Kristin Cummins and Jody Phillips. An authentic friendship had a great deal to live up to though. No matter what kind of friendship people shared, each was special and important. A friend meant so many things ... A shoulder to cry on, an car to bend, money to borrow, clothes to lend. Friday night movies, afternoon walks, just being together, many private talks, mending our hearts, crying those tears. Planning our futures, sharing our fears. Our memories together may they never end, always together — FOREVER FRIENDS! Picture 1— Cassie Marston and the Jacket mascot are sideline cheering pals.

OPENING Variation in Transportation From cars to motorcycles and buses to bi- cycles, the transportation at Leesburg High School varied widely from student to student. Most popular among the upperclassmen was driving one ' s own car. Those commonly found in the parking lot were Mary Alice Tucker ' s and Durham Young ' s twin white Monzas, Jensie Hardy ' s gray Camaro, and Kathleen Young ' s Ford Comet, alias the Vomit. Some of the more spirited cars and trucks were Mark Young ' s orange Z-car and Mike Woods ' s big, black. Ford truck. While seniors worried about paying for gas in their cars, the freshmen worried about catching their buses. One often noticed poor lost souls wandering the halls in search of a ride home, or scanning the parking lots for their parents ' cars — for the enterprising teens who could convince their parents, there was a personally chauffeured ride to and from school. Joe Wise, Clayton Moore, Robby Steven- son, and Randy Cook were seen daily cruis- ing into and out of the Early-Release parking lot on motorcycles. Next there were the bicy- clists. This group consisted of those who lived near the school but chose not to walk. Miriam Gelfand and Satish Patel were just two of those who helped fill the bike racks every morning Although at times the Leesburg High transportation system seemed chaotic, it usu- ally worked out for the best. With only occa- sional tardiness, the students and faculty managed to reach their destinations in one piece. Picture 1 — The pretty yellow buses pick up students every afternoon at 2:30. Picture 2 — Mary Alice Tucker smiles and says, I ' ll take my Monza over the bus any day. Picture 3 Diane and Laura Bonelli ' s Bobcat Now that ' s real Jacket Spirit. OPENING OPENING- A ] e The Class The Class of ' 86 came into the year with high hopes. After financing an outstanding prom, they entered the year with a nominal deficit. This, however, did not dampen their spirits in the least bit. They immediately made preparations for fundraisers. These in- cluded two very successful football dances and a carwash in early November. This pro- vided further impetus to propel the Seniors toward that late May dream. Along the way to that goal, though, the Seniors took the time to collect some memo- rabilia to immortalize their stay at Leesburg High. Who could forget the first day of ninth grade when the school looked so big, (and so did the seniors!)? Or the 6-4 record of the football team during the sophomore year, (the first since 1977!)? Or the incredible base- ball season of ' 85 in which the Jackets be- came number 2 in the state? Or their first prom with all the tuxedoed guys and their elegantly dressed dates? Or the exciting mo- ment when each and every Senior walked across that platform and was handed a diplo- ma, the symbol of all the hard work and prep- aration that went into their high school ca- reers? And then it was time to move on: Some to the world of college life; others to the world of vocational work; and still others to the world where it took both to survive. Whatever the case, the Class of ' 86 could be proud of its achievements. With the largest number of Florida scholars ever to graduate from Lees- burg High, its academic success was one which it could be proud, and also one which set the example for future classes to emulate. All these factors made the Senior Class of ' 86 one that truly deserved the title of The Class With Class !

He was very kind and made many new friends. Durham felt the school helped him learn how to handle himself in difficult situations. Durham ' s hobbies included skiing, fishing, racquetball, surfing, weightlifting, and espe- cially hunting. His most important sport, how- ever, was baseball. Baseball was his favorite pasttime and he proudly boasts of his 1985 trip to the state tournament. He was also very involved actively in the youth group at Saint James Episcopal Church. Howard Hewitt I! William Horan Judy Howard His future plans include attending a junior college, and then possibly a major university. (His first choice is the University of Florida). His biggest dream would be to play intercolle- giate baseball, possibly leading to a profes- sional baseball career. With all of his good qualities, Durham should have no trouble ful- filling this dream. By: Lindsey Cook Power!!!

Since the ninth grade, Janna has held offices in the student government, demonstrating her leadership abilities. She first served as freshman presi- dent and then got involved with the student body government. There she served as vice- president as a junior and then president in her senior year. Leading the school, however, did not stop Janna from getting involved in other areas as well. She was a member of Triad, Interclub, Latin Club, National Honor Society, and also competed in the Science Fairs. In addition to all of this, she also was a swimmer and diver, sang for two years in Madrigals, and accumu- lated many academic awards. Janna was tru- ly an asset to her fellow students and her school leaving a name to be long remem- bered in the annuals of Leesburg High. By: Halla Shami Angle Peterltin Tonya R.

We, the Class of 1986, wish to dedicate the La Torre to Mrs. Rosemary Fitzpatrick for her friendship and support while working with our class. She was more than a teacher, she was also a friend, a counselor, and guid- ance to those around her. Much of her time was spent working on fundraisers and putting together the prom. Her other hobbies include reading and neddlepoint. The wife of Steve Fitzpatrick and the mother of two beautiful daughters, Katie and Chrissie, she always had time for them, along with her extra-cur- ricular activities at school. Mrs. Fitz has taught English here for eight years, along with speech and mass me- dia. She also sponsored our class in 1984 and 1985. Her dedication to the students and the school was shown clearly in all she did. Her consideration of others has touched the hearts of many and for all you have done, we thank you.

Van Vy net We, the senior class of 1986, would like to take a moment to remember the passing of Jeffrey VanVynct, on May 22, 1984. All the students who knew Jeff will never forget all the wonderful moments spent with him, espe- cially the time Jeff decided to paint the cows. Jeff made many impressions on people throughout his time here with us. All of those he touched will continue to let his memory live. As the time grows near for all the seniors to graduate and take that final walk on May 29, maybe we will take a look at what life really means and appreciate it a little more. So, as we, the senior class of 1986, make our final march, the memory of Jeff will be brought alive and taken with us as if he were here today.

These words cause tense excitement in any contestant, and although may I have your attention please was a little less dra- matic, for the junior class office candidates, it caused its own electrical panic. Everyone held his breath as the announcement came. Treasurer, Deann Waddell; Secretary, Rayna Hogan; Vice President is Tamara Whi- senant and the Junior President is Ralph Amadeo. These officers began right away with discussions of homecoming and prom. In late October, Rayna moved and Heather Cle- ments was voted in as the new secretary. Tamara, Deann and Heather gave their all on their homecoming committees and Ralph saw to it that all the materials necessary for them were available. Together, they raised funds by barbecuing chickens and sold more little orange pens than they could care to count in order to throw the best prom possible. By: Tamara Whisenant Hi! My name is Heather Clements. I was junior class secre- tary. I wanted to he an offi- cer because I felt we had the heat olaas at LHS. I wanted to make it known to everyone else how great we were! Hi! I ' m Deanne Waddell. I ran for this office because I wanted to be involved in my class activi- ties. It has been what I expected and even more! My name is Ralph Amadeo. I was your Junior Class President . I tried to im- prove class pride and our spirit. I hope that the class of ' 87 enjoyed this year. Hey! I ' m Tamara Whisenant. I was proud and honored to ser- ve the junior class and I hope the year reflected it.

Having a job not only meant earning some money of one ' s own, it was also a great opportunity to meet new people. These were some of the working juniors — Tom Maggio, Joe Walker, Marsha Young, Trang Vu, Stacy Cordle, Brian Eubanks, and Shawn Foster. One could often see Joe Walk- er, Stacy Cordle, or Trang Vu putting orders together at one of the most popular hang- outs — McDonald ' s. Tom Maggio was busy at Smithgall ' s and Marsha Young at Ammer- man Insurance. Shawn Foster bagged grocer- ies at Publix and Brian Eubanks was busy being a representative for the Oriental World of Karate. According to most of the juniors who worked, having a job gave them a tremen- dous sense of independence and responsibil- ity. Although most did not even think about getting jobs yet, there were already some knocking on the doors of success.

Although he was involved in sports, such as football and base- ball and played basketball on the side, he was able to keep his grades up by making A ' s and B ' s. He was also involved in National Honor Society and Beta Club. Steve said, School ' s main purpose is to teach us things, but if people get involved in school activities they could have fun while learning. Steve also thought that athletics were very important in a person ' s life because they strengthen character and make one more competitive. He said, It also promotes a team attitude which will help one in the future on a job. Steve said, Sports do all of these things and are a lot of fun. After high school he said that he wanted to attend college somewhere and graduate from medical school as an opthomologist. He would then like to settle down and enjoy life with his family.

A large part of their year was spent planning for college. Along with dreams of college came the dreads and fears of the infa- mous S.A.T., the Scholastic Aptitude Test. This important test determined what college, if any, you would have been allowed to at- tend. Colleges such as Duke, Harvard, Yale, and Dartmouth required at least a 1300. Needless to say the S.A.T. was on the minds of many. Students prepared for the S.A.T. in many different ways. Some chose to take it cold turkey , without any preparations of any kind. Then there were the students who bought one of the many S.A.T. study books and crammed the week before the test date. Probably the most beneficial means of prep- arations were the S.A.T. classes. In these classes students were informed of the tricks of guessing and the clues to look for on the test. These classes were offered around the community at Leesburg High, Lee Adult High, as well as at Lake-Sumter Community College. A few juniors that attended the classes were Carol Dannelly, Darren McDan- iel, Jensie Hardy, and Steve Madden. No matter how a student prepared for the S.A.T., they all agreed that this one test set the course for at least the next four years of their lives. By: Heather Clements Bobby Haeck hard at work.

Spirit Week had finally arrived once again and its presence was more than welcomed by the students. Nearly all of the juniors were ready to go a little crazy for a week, and their spirit shone brightly with the traditional days of Spirit Week. Stephanie Smith, Allen Robinson, and Stephanie Moye came to school looking like fans of their favorite colleges on Monday which was College Day. Tuesday, Lynda Grouse and Kathleen Young were dressed as bee-bops from the Fifties. While Michelle Dietz, Jennifer Techman, and Becky Greer all arrived decked out as camoflaged com- mandoes on this dual spirited day. Hippie Day was Wednesday. A Make Love — Not Elaine Jones Robert Keller Tom Kent Dayton King Sam King War tee-shirt, peace signs, and faded, flow- ered denim jeans composed the attire worn by Pam Godfrey, Curt Feldmcyer, and Kelly Miller. Thursday was not only designed to have brought out the tourist in everyone with Ha- waiian Day, but it was also the day of the Homecoming Parade and the class and club skits. Friday, by way of tradition, was Orange and Black Day. An ultimate test of spirit, this day engulfed nearly all of the juniors in the excitement. High spirits and tension filled the air, but this was not only because of the big game that evening. The excitement was caused by the proud unity of the juniors be- hind their mighty Jackets.

Examples of every aspect of the fashion industry could have been seen strolling by in the halls. Juniors such as Jeff Holt and Dana Fuchs were part of the Ma- donna Craze which swept the nation this past year. Many of the juniors, being native Floridians, chose the cooler dress code of ber- mudas and mini skirts. This summer apparel was usually topped with a cotton tank or a sleeveless sweater.

Although there were many things she could do well, the area in which she excelled was swimming. Susan not only par- ticipated in competitions such as districts, conferences, and state competition, she also placed among the top. Susan also held the school records for the 100, 200, and 500 freestyle and the 100 fly. Susan ' s main goal was to complete high school and go to college. She was undecided on her choice of a college though. After being on the school newspaper staff, Susan ' s inter- est in Journalism had grown. Although she has not chosen that to be her major for cer- tain, it was among one of her top consider- ations. No matter what Susan decides to major in or where she plans to go to college, one would always hope that her interest in swimming would not diminish. by Trang Vu Mike Parman Maurice Parson Jackie Pea Kimberly Peiia Curtis Peppers Bart Phillips Jody Phillips Mary Grace Phillips Leslie Popovich Top: Susan Suwalski checks her winning time.

On game days, they proudly strutted down the halls with their uniforms on. During football season, Kevin Brown, Brent Parker and Terry Wall were a few juniors who played to their best ability on the field. Susan Suwalski, Todd Hopkins, and Keith Crumpton were some juniors who swam their finest strokes in the water. The volleyball team bounced back with help from the top junior players, Renee Lolley and Linda Allen, who also participated in basketball. Coach Lowe had some fine young men who participated in his baseball season. Juniors Steve Madden and Phillip Hilldale were a cou- ple. Doug Moffett and Jensie Hardy both were naturals on the tennis court. Renee Lolley and Tamara Whisenant were two juniors who swung to perfection on the soft- ball field. Judd White was found putting around on the golf course. Tim Bryant and Ralph Amadeo were two ju- niors who were found on the weightlifting team. Juniors Steve Tsolakis and Greg Hull were members of Coach Hayes ' soccer team. Robert Keller was found on the mat with the wrestling team. All in all the juniors in sports showed a sense of pride and support for others throughout each season. By: Lisa Young 1 wonder why 1 can ' t lift like Tom?

Although each junior was unique in his own way, their was always the typical things of a junior. The typical junior gained the awe (and fear) of freshmen and sophomores by letting them know instantly just who their superiors were. The typical junior was willing to help out anytime, anywhere, . . . providing it didn ' t interfere with any of their own activi- ties. The typical junior could be found faith- fully sitting in the rain at a football game cheering on their team. These are just a few of the typical things a junior could be found doing.

Waddell-White; JUNIORS— 65 Relaxation On The Weekends The ever-popular weekend was on every fun-loving junior ' s mind from about 7:30 Monday morning when the week began until Friday afternoon at 2:30 when it ended. Ev- eryone agreed that weekends were made for having fun and acting a little crazy. They were the break one either did or did not de- serve, but looked forward to no matter what. However, if there was one fact the juniors were most painfully aware of, it was that weekends only occured after five incredibly long days of school. When a weekend finally did arrive, though, it usually proved itself worth the wait. Once movies at the mall and loitering at McDonalds had become blase, the juniors set out in search of new activities for the week- end. In the warmer months, there were end- less watersports on Lakes Harris and Griffin. Georgia Stewart and Judd White seemed to enjoy this the most. Steve Tsolakis, Curt Feldmeyer, and Brett Benson were seen fre- quenting The Main Street Connection. Missy Cameron and Jensie Hardy were also seen dancing their nights away at this popular teen club. John Tweedle and Lee Coleman were dedicated partiers when it came down to alot- ting their time on the weekend. A majority of juniors drove. For those who did, a weekend meant one possibly had use of the car for the night. This was a frequent allowance, and many also found it meant roaming all over creation and hauling along a fe w friends for company. All in all, the juniors usually managed to enjoy themselves and made the most of the weekends, but it never failed that there were those five days before they were blessed with another one.

On the menu for the sophomores were sports of all kinds, cheer- ing, as well as cheerleading, and being in dance corp, band, and various clubs, but the main course was a dish called making the grade. Grades were top priority for many of the sophomores, as a look at the honor rolls will quickly prove. Each nine weeks one could find many sophomore names on both the A and A-B honor rolls. The class of ' 88 was indeed a melting pot whose main ingredients were intelligence, talent, and en- thusiasm.

One would fre- quently refer to another as just a friend . Also, the phrase Friends Forever was found at the closing of many notes passed during the year. Although the word friend was misused by many, some students found true friendships in different ways. Though friends meant different things to different students, all agreed that a true friend was hard to find. Most students found genuine friendships and learned the real meaning of friends.

They were very important to the foot- ball players and fans at all of the games.

Along with the J.V. and varsity cheerleaders, some familiar faces to be found on the pep bus were Grace Young, Jennifer Stephenson, Christy Koss, Dan Dickerson, Wendy Leadbetter, and Lara Moody.

The crowded lunchroom was a unique experience for many freshmen. The size of the campus was misleading, but luckily most freshmen learned quickly. The first high school football game was an experience for many freshmen. The first high school dance was also an im- pression that many freshmen will not soon forget. Many of these freshmen were in- volved in sports. Some freshmen developed friends in the upperclasses that helped them become acquainted with the school.

Brad Dunn was a leading freshman on the JV football team and one of the leading rushers. Many freshman were also on the Soccer team. These were Stuart Hardy, Jamie Rick- etson, Judd Dickerson, Son Ngyuyen, Tony Olive, Jim Moeller, and Charleton Bernard. Many freshman girls also participated in sports. Minda Malibaran was one who helped the volleyball team. Jodi Putnam and Yo- landa Green were two others who added to the success of the Girls ' Basketball team. These two girls also played volleyball. So, freshman had an important role in LHS sports and the mark they left will last for a long time.

She participated in many extracurricular activities and was still able to keep a good grade point average. Some activities she participated in were: Vol- leyball, freshman class meetings, freshman homecoming float, and softball. When asked of her plans after high school, she very enthusiastically said that she would move on to the University of Florida to major in fashion design or computers. Even though Jo Karen takes her studies very seriously, she still had a favorite teacher and-class. High on her list of favorite teachers was Mrs. Green who taught her Algebra. When asked of her opinion of Jo Karen, Mrs. Green made com- ments like always smiling , pleasure to have around and great student . Some of Jo Karen ' s favorite things about L.H.S. were the people, making new friends, and meeting up with old ones. Another favor- ite was the number of sports available to girls.

Some old, reliable friendships were still strong. Other people made new friends that will be with them throughout high school. Some chose to be friends with uppcrclassmen rather than other freshmen, and others chose to stick with their classmates. No matter what types of friends the freshman had, it was important to have friends to have fun with, to help, or to be helped by your friends. Many people discov- ered that the first friend they made would be one of their best friends in high school.

Spir- it days were eagerly anticipated as tfie outfits for the week were laid out in preparation. Monday was College Day and the freshmen quickly jumped on the bandwagon. Shirts from UF to Wisconsin State showed up on them. So this trend continued as each day the appropriate costumes were worn. And then, on Friday, it seemed every freshman donned his darkest black and brightest orange, creat- ing a virtual sea of the colors at the pep rally in the freshman section. Finally came the big moment — the game! All came decked out in their Sunday best. Minda Malibiran looked especially dazzling as she represented her class as their attendant. Brad Dunn, the other attendant, made his presence known by playing in the game and cheering the Jackets to victory! Alas, it all ended and everyone went home satisfied knowing it would happen again!

This de- partment offered course ranging from Gener- al Math I to Computer Math, to Calculus. Mrs. Green taught two computer classes throughout the day and Mr. Wagner started his day with AP Calculus. A new addition to the math curriculum was Liberal Arts. This class was a step between Algebra I and Alge- bra II. Some other teachers in this depart- ment were Mr. Barningham teaching Math Analysis, Trig, and Algebra I; Mrs. May teaching Geometry; and Mrs. Andrcichuk and Mr. Howard teaching Algebra II. So, by all the hard work and dedication of these teachers SAT and PRIDE scores multiplied.

To have become a doctor or scientist, one must have learned much about biology, chemistry, and anatomy. To instruct students in these subjects there were seven very dedi- cated teachers who were knowledgeable in the area of science. These teachers would not only teach in class, but were always around after hours to help students with disections, lab experiments, or science projects. Two teachers, Mr. Good and Dr. Branham were especially helpful with science projects. However, it was not only they who helped students reach success. Mrs. Good and Mr. Tucker also encouraged their students to participate in the science fair. They also showed the steps to an excellent project. Many of the projects were taken to the annu- al state fair. Included with academics, these teachers were the advisors and sponsors of clubs. Mrs. Good sponsored Triad, and Coach Foster led our varsity football team. It was evident that these teachers were the molders and creators of our future physicians, lab technicians, sur- geons, and most of all, our future successful scientists.

This having been his seventh year as chair- man, Mr. Huber has worked hard to achieve most of his goals. Two gifted English classes have been added, and the writing program has been extended to include the 10th grade as well as 11th and 12th. The writing pro- gram caused the most trouble, as teachers participating in it were limited to one hun- dred students. For this reason, five new teachers were added to the department, bringing the total to sixteen. New teachers were: Mr. Arnold, Mr. Richardson, Mrs. Sapp, Mrs. Parker and Mrs. Smith.

The social studies department, with Mr. Soto at the head of it all, was composed of Florida ' s finest. With the addition of Mrs. Hargrove, the number of talented teachers in this department increased. One teacher, Mr. Mularsky, not only taught for the Social Stud- ies department, but also sponsored Key Club, a service club at L.H.S. Another unique feature of this department was the husband and wife team, a.k.a. Mr. and Mrs. Soto, though they were not the only husband and wife team in the school. Mr. Cook, another teacher who taught in this department, not only taught, but coached football, wrestling, and track. In conclusion, the social studies department displayed evidence that it not only housed some of the best teachers, but also proved once again it was the best around.

This was an ordinary day in journalism. Mrs. Lockett, yearbook sponsor, was a photogra- pher, artist, typist, secretary, and friend. She helped meet deadlines and took many need- ed pictures. She proofed layouts, but most of all, she was understanding. Laura Leugers, the La Torre, editor, was the key to our success. Her leadership and knowledge aided in many last minute changes and corrections of the numerous mis- takes. She received help also from the sec- tion editors. They were: Senior class — Charles Rosenbalm, Junior class — Jennifer Techman, Sophomore class — Carla Klingler, Freshmen class — Charles Rosenbalm, Com- puter — Craig Berger, Ads — Kelley Coffey, and Photography — Mark Young. Each section consisted of new juniors, sophomores and freshmen. Only four seniors and two juniors were returning staffers. A few members also attended a yearbook work- shop in Gainesville. These were: Jennifer Techman, Pat Pridgeon, Halla Shami, Charles Rosenbalm, Craig Berger and for their third year, Laura Leugers, Carla Klingler. Mrs. Lockett not only attended the workshop, but also taught one of the sessions. The yearbook was worked on throughout the year and many new friends were made. New nicknames were created for old and new staff members, and a strong family bond existed throughout. Their leader, Mama Ruth Lockett and Editor Lou Leugers, were credited with the enthusiasm and spirit of the staff, that worked together and stayed together. By: Carla Klingler YEARBOOK STAFF— 131 Deadlines, interviews, pictures, where did it all stop? It stopped with the Newspaper staff. The members of the staff worked hard to put together a paper full of activities, inter- views, and up-to-date gossip. The sports sec- tion included football, basketball, soccer, and other popular sports. Interviews were also an important part of the newspaper. Reporters from the staff wrote articles on active stu- dents, teachers, and special events. A new portion of the newspaper, entitled dear Le Bunne , was a popular feature. Students would write to Le Bunne for advice, and their letters would be answered in the paper. With the help of Mrs. Ogles, their sponsor, and Carol Dannelly, the editor, the staff accom- plished the feat of making The Stinger a suc- cess.

Latin is not dead. It ' s just Roman around. This phrase became a popular statement among the eighty members of the Latin Club. Sponsored by Mrs. Ogles, they proved to be one of the most active clubs on campus. Meetings were held twice a month on the first and third Tuesdays under the leadership of Sam Adams, the president. The meetings scheduled for the third week of the month took place at Takis where the students enjoyed two hours of pigging out on pizza with some business thrown in. Pizza parties were not the only time got together for food and fun. Two Latin banquets were held dur- ing the school year, the first on November 9, and the second on March 8. Though both dinners featured lasagna, baklava, and other such foods, there was a distinct difference in the two banquets. In the fall, the first year members of the Latin Club were auctioned off as slaves, and bought by those who had been sold in the past. A few, such as Dan Dickerson and Todd Bates chose to be sold again. Being the highest priced slave as a Freshman, Dan Dickerson was expected to set a new record. Though Todd Bates was auctioned off at the highest price, Dan was recognized for a new distinction as the chea- pest slave, as he was sold for fifty cents. While some masters proved to be fairly civil towards their slaves, others such as Eric Fet- ter insisted on having his toenails painted pur- ple. Fortunately for the students at the par- ents ' banquet, at which members were required to obey their parents ' every com- mand, Mom and Dad were not too terrible of masters. The Latin Club participated in many other activities. One Friday was declared Toga Day for the club. While some dressed in au- thentic Roman togas, others such as Evan Keller arrived at school in a football sheet and flip flops. Who said the Romans didn ' t have any style? Finally, many members participat- ed in the District and State FJCL Forums. At these competitions students competed for awards on tests, oral presentations, creative projects, and chariot racing. In conclusion, the Latin Club proved once again they ' re not just Roman around. By: Jennifer Edwards LATIN CLUB— 137 The LHS Brain Trust Have you ever wondered who those peo- ple were that crawled down to the office ear- ly every morning only to massacre the Pledge of Allegiance? Or who sold you all that coke and those M M ' s in the afternoon? Or whose advice you were taking to help bring your grade up in algrbra? Well, the people behind those smiling faces belonged to the members of National Honor Society. All of these activities they coordinated and made successes. These activities also provided a basis for service, one of the criterion neces- sary for induction. A member had to earn eight service points a nine weeks through participating in these or others of the clubs many activities. Some of the more popular ones, such as the Computer Match-Up, the Beauty Pageant, and the Easter Eggstrava- ganza, became annual affairs.

Marsha Young, and her father put the finishing touches on the Honor Society Homecoming The second, and possibly the most note- worthy, was scholarship. All members were required to maintain a grade point average of 3.3 or higher. This rigorous requirement al- lowed NHS to become an elite club with dedi- cated members. The final two criteria for membership, leadership and character, worked hand in hand. The members were required to abstain from all cheating and strive to maintain their high standing through hard work and commit- ment to their schoolwork. Their trustworthi- ness and honesty earned them the respect of their fellow students. This respect and sup- port allowed them to gain offices in their classes and also the entire student body. Through this great influence on the school, NHS members played a great role in the running of the student government. These four basic criteria allowed NHS to be a diverse yet well-rounded group of stu- dents who cared about their school. Their far- reaching influence aided the members in un- derstanding the work necessary to succeed in life. With a firm background in hard work, the members of NHS garnered the basics of what it truely takes to fulfill their goals.

Ms. Allen said that Pamoja was proud of all of all of their achievements, but in particu- lar, they were proud of an increased rate in membership. Pamoja lived up to it ' s name once more. It spread warmth, and caring into homes where otherwise there wouldn ' t have been any. So, once more, Pamoja saved the day {Thanks- giving day that is). They also proved that they weren ' t just another club that sat around and had parties. They were one of the more ac- tive clubs on campus, and many people were touched by their hard work.

Though they had extensive plans for the year, very few of them went into action. One activitie they participated in was the home- coming parade. Their sweetheart, Charlotte Rountree, rode in a car with their Beau, Alp- wan Lynum. The Juniorettes also had a party to encourage girls to join the club. The party was fairly succesful, they gained two new members, and several more were thinking it over. One blow dealt to the Juniorettes last year was when their president, Becca Kirkland, resigned. She explained that she was in- volved in too many other activities to be able to devote the time needed to the club. The most likely candidate to become the next president was Charlotte Rountree because of her activeness in the club. Prior to her elec- tion, Charlotte worked on getting t-shirts for the club members. Top Row (1 to r); Kelly Worth, Barbara Kepner. Middle Row: Charlotte Rountree, Angie Cone. Donna Minich.

Below; Janna Adams and Mark Young at tfie Homecoming Parade The Student Council had a very good year. The Student Council was lead by their Presi- dent Janna Adams. The rest of the officers were Mark Young— Vice President, Cindy Bishop — Secretary, and Jeanne Seibel — Treasurer. The Student Council played a ma- jor role during Spirit Week and Homecoming. During Spirit Week, the Student Council set up cups with certain teachers ' names on them. At the end of the week, the teacher that had the most money got a pie thrown in his or her face. There were four lucky teach- ers that had the most money in each of their cups, but only one would win. The teachers were: Mrs. Hand, Mr. Soto, Ms. Samuels, and Mrs. Hayes. The unlucky winner was Ms. Samuels, and Janna Adams had the pleasure of smashing the pie in her face. The Student Council also took care of the homecoming parade which was one of the biggest ever. Carla Klingler and Suzy James did an excellent job of putting the parade together and making it a huge success. The Student Council also put together a great homecoming dance which was done by Y- 106. The Student Council made Spirit Week and Homecoming a great success. They were a leading organization at Leesburg High. by Tony Olive SHOWS THE WAY STUDENT COUNCIL— 151 BETA: A NEW CLUB, A NEW EXPERIENCE . ' :!aii Beta Club was a relatively new club on campus. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Wil- liams, Beta Club tackled many activities. Some of which included fundraisers, service projects, and social get-togethers. As fundraisers, members sold Yellow jack- et pens. They also sold Christmas ornaments. For Valentine ' s Day, Beta provided carna- tions and roses to be sent to one ' s special person. This helped to boost Beta ' s trea- surery considerably. Along with fundraisers, members were in- volved in certain service projects. First of all, some participated in a program concerning the nursing home. Those who did wrote or sent cards or flowers to their pen pals on a regular basis. Also trips were made to the nursing home during Halloween, Christmas, and Easter to decorate the doors or to visit some of the patients. Secondly, around Christmas there was a toy drive for the Lake County Foster Parents ' Home. The State Convention held in May in Or- lando was the main social get-together for Beta members throughout the state. This event was the perfect opportunity to learn new ideas about fundraisers and other activi- ties. Therefore, during the course of the year, one could definitely conclude that Beta has been one of the busiest clubs on campus. Perhaps this tradition will be upheld in years to come.

The officers included: Lau- ra Leugers — President, Janna Adams — Vice President, Laura Brown — Recording Secretary, Jennifer Techman — Treasurer, Deann Waddell— Corresponding Secretary, and Jeanne Seibel and Melinda Liebi — Par- liamentarian. Triad ' s Directors who were in charge of notifying the club ' s members of meetings and other activities were as follows: senior — Suzanne Booth and Carla Klinger, junior — Heather Clements and Kathleen Young, sophomore — Amy Green and Anna Molina. Elected as Triad Beau was Mark Young. The forty-one member club was spon- sored by Mrs. Good. Immediately, Triad began a series of suc- cessful, spirit-building projects. During the month of September, they boosted the mo- rale of the Junior Varsity football team with two huge banners hung along the front of the school encouraging the players on to victory. Triad also supplied the J.V. team with a pick-me-up of Gatoraide and sandwiches one day after the team ' s practice. Next on the club ' s lengthy agenda was the task of hosting the first dance of the year on Septem- ber twentieth after the Jackets ' first home game. Towards the middle of football season. Tri- ad decided to spread its cheer upon the varsi- ty Jacket football team. During Spirit Week, the week of the Homecoming game, each member of the club was assigned a football player to be her secret pal. All throughout the week, the girls hung signs boasting their player ' s jersey number and giving a few words of encouragement. Many sent the players secret messages, candy, and home- made cookies. One club member even sent her secret pal lunch! On the day of the game, Friday, the players were introduced to their pals and their great appreciation was ex- pressed. Among other events which Triad partici- pated in were car washes, the annual Triad Rummage Sale, and providing food baskets for the needy at Thanksgiving. However, all the girls in Triad agreed that all work and no play was no fun. The remedy for this was a swim party at Amy Green ' s house. Other festivities included the initiation rites such as the annual initiation B.B.Q. by; Jennifer Techman Top picture: Senior Members — front — Carla Klinger. Laura Leugers, Laura Brown.

TRIAD— 155 Art Club Enriches If one was interested in art or even just in furthering his knowledge in the area of art, the Art Club was the place to have been this year. Several of those students who pos- sessed artistic talents of one kind or another joined this club which met every other Wednesday. One of the Art Club ' s projects was spon- soring the visit of a glassblowing artist to the school. This artist not only put her talents on display for the students, but also furnished the scepter, a glass Yellow Jacket, which was given to the Homecoming King. The purpose of the Art Club was to pro- mote the students ' interest in the field of art, and to serve the community in art projects as well.

ART CLUB— 157 One of the clubs that was often overlooked at Leesburg was the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, better known as FCA. The Fellow- ship of Christian Athletes held its meetings on Tuesday at 6:30 in the library. The Fellow- ship of Christian Athletes held car washes and sponsored a dance to raise money. This club provided a club for the athletes at Lees- burg High School to go and reflect their Chris- tian beliefs as well as being an athlete. The club sponsor, Mr. Ayris, managed to provide a successful FCA club at Leesburg. TOP— Front Row: Terri Kutch, Robert Keller, Alisa Jones.

These students had the opportunity to go out and work within the community and earn money for their efforts while gaining credits toward their graduation. Together the students averaged 1,250 hours and 4,548 dollars per week and their expected income for this year was close to a quarter of a million dollars. Way to go CECF!

The unwritten motto seemed to be Do as many fun activities this year with music as you pos- sible can, and the members of TRI-M upheld this motto. Bake sales were held to raise mon- ey for trips to concerts of theatre produc- tions, and plans were made for a trip to Dis- ney World. In November, old TRI-M members tapped new members. In order to have been tapped, a person had to have re- ceived a superior or excellent at state compe- tition the year before. A banquet was held soon after Christmas and the new members were welcomed with open arms. Congrats TRI-M, for proving yourself to be the NHS of the arts at Leesburg High. by Tamara Whisenant Stephanie Moye says, Watch it, buster. Oh, how I love to read the dictionary, exclaims Jeff Holt.

TRI-M— 167 Ihhhhik ' .n A f WE ' VE GOT SPIRIT, We certainly did have spirit during home- coming week, says J.V. cheerleader, Paige Lightfoot, and how right she was. Many ac- tivities were planned by the student council to help make the homecoming week an excel- lent one. Everyday students would arrive at school in very strange clothing. Monday was college sweatshirt day. Tuesday was 50 ' s camoflouge day. Mrs. Lockett got espe- cially involved in this day by dressing up in a 50 ' s skirt and saddle oxfords, and bringing her 50 ' s records. She could even be seen doing The Bop with Mark Young. Wednes- day, hippy day, Pam Godfrey and Grace Young were outrageousley dressed in some of mom ' s old clothes . Mariam Shami decid- ed that Hawaiian day was the day that she would outdo the rest. She dressed in a Hawai- ian print skirt, sandles, several leis and a flower for her hair to finish off the outfit. To complete the week of costumes, Friday was designated as Orange and Black day. Dress- ing up was not the only spirit promoter. Beta Club sponsored a spirit chain sale, which the freshman class won. The sophomores sold sweatshirts and carnations, and the student coucil sponsored a Teacher-Pie-In-the-face contest, in which Mrs. Samuels was the lucky winner. Along with sales there was the tradi- tional parade and skit night. The sophomores took first place with their spirit truck and skit, which were to the theme of Songs . Their theme song was Alive and Kickin . C.E.C.F took first place with their float. Their theme song was The Theme From Rocky . Sen- iors, with the theme song Monster Mash took first place with their plot. The final out- come of all this spirit: An exciting 9-7 VICTO- RY over the Bishop Moore Hornets, and a very happy student body. By Halla Shami Pic. I: French Club members display their Jacket Pride.

HOMECOMING SPIRIT— 171 And The Winner Is Lori Lightfoot Scott Parish Homecoming was said to have been the best in years at Leesburg High. The week was filled with everything from skits, floats, and plots to the outstanding pep rally. Despite all the activities, the high- light of the week occurred at halftime on Friday, November 22. This event was of course the presenting of the homecoming court and the crowning of the king and queen. The court included Minda Mali- biran and Brad Dunn, the freshmen class attendants; Kim Trumbo and James Lowery, the sophomore class attendants; and Kathleen Young and Terry Elliot, the junior class attendants. Each of the atten- dants were elected by the peers of their class. The rest of the court was made up of the six king and queen candidates. The queen candidates included: Durenda Loo- ney, Cheree Dixon, and Lori Lightfoot, and the king candidates were : Scott Par- ish, Kenny Edwards, and Scherman Park- er. Each of the candidates eagerly await- ed the crowning ceremony as did the student body and many members of the community. 1 want to win, but if 1 don ' t it ' s just an honor to be out here. expressed Durenda Looney. The mighty Yellow Jackets were win- ning 7-0 at halftime and spirits were high as Lori Lightfoot and Scott Parish were crowned the 1985 king and queen of L.H.S. The Jackets were victorious with a 9-7 win over the Hornets. The homecom- ing court were honored enough to repre- sent their school and the student body was treated to an outstanding football game and dance. Everyone, but the Bishop Moore Hornets, walked away winners. By Healher Clemenls Top left: Durenda Looney, pretty as a picture. Top right: King candidate Kenny Edwards Mom.

Where could a person find a lot of students having a good time on a Monday night?? In the Private Room at the Leesburg Public Library. Students could be found participat ing in activities such as watching movies playing Capture the Flag (in which the Sen iors and Juniors won), playing Air Hockey watching video taped Jacket football games and talking. Young Life sponsored the Dating Game and the Egg Roulette. Again this year Young Life visited Windy Gap, nestled snuggly in the mountains of North Carolina. The group stayed four days and three nights spending most of their time listening to music, watching movies, playing ping-pong, volleyball, pool and many other activities. The most exciting activity found was skiing, most for their first time, and horseback riding. Many students went on this fantastic trip and some of these people were Durham and Lisa Young, Paula Bullock, Dawn and Amy Weber, Cathy Williams, Georgia L. Stewart, Jennifer and Jay Tech- man, Laura Brown, Janna Adams, Mike Woods, Heather and Beau Franklin, Kevin Paulling, John Wrinkle, Russell Hayes, Kevin Scott, Wayne Prevatt, Vicki Kidd, and many others.

There were five dif- ferent choruses: Melodaires, Choralaires, Advanced Girls, Concert, and Madrigals. There were also ensembles which practiced extra to attend the district festival. Their ef- fort and hard work was shown at contest. Madrigals, an elite group of singers, par- ticipated in Stetson Honor Choir and per- formed over the Christmas holidays for com- munity organizations. The Concert Chorus participated in the Christmas Candlelight at Disney along with Madrigals. A tour of northern Florida and South Geor- gia was planned by Miss Logan and Chorus officers. The tour was planned for Concert Chorus and Madrigals. The tour was paid for by the candy and apple sales held throughout the year. Over eighty students participated and their music was made by the accompa- nists: Angie Cone, Durenda Looney, Kelly Miller, Laura Brown, Miriam Gelfand, and Tamara Whisenant. Great dedication was shown from many, but above all, by the class officers of each chorus. Each class had different officers. Me- lodaires: Alesha Leggett, K.C. Owens, Ricki Gentile, and Tisha Speer; Choralaires: Joh- nathan Humphrey, Natalie Sahab, Leigh Ann Lightfoot; Advanced Girls: Tora Gor- don, Pam Owens, Michelle Brown, and Krista Nusbaum; Concert Chorus: Carla Klingler, Lori Lightfoot, Cindy Bishop, and Angie Cone; Madrigals: Laura Brown and Steve Fink. Laura and Steve were also elected Beau and Sweetheart of chorus. Carla Klingler, concert chorus president, was dedicated and helped in making the year a success. She was a student conductor for Choralaires and also a two year member of Madrigals. She aided in the organization of the tour and was also a member of Tri-M which honored her and others for their out- standing efforts in music. Miss Logan, who put much time into the chorus department, also worked on her mas- ters degree in conducting and her masters recital in November. She was the director of festival contest and set up district competi- tions with surrounding schools. Her enthusi- asm was clearly shown in her ability to pro- duce beautiful music with outstanding talent. CHORUS— 177 Concert chorus sings with style.

Under the leadership of Di- rector Jack Hart, the band played to crowds from Ocala Vanguard to as far south as Co- coa Beach. The Marching Jackets also went to Disney this year to entertain crowds there. The band consisted of 89 playing members and 40 auxiliary members from the Dance Corps and Flag Corps. From the marching band a 52 member Concert Band was chosen for concert performances. The highlight of the year was the FBA competition held here at Leesburg High. 21 bands attended this marching festival. Lees- burg received an overall rating of Excellent for its performance. The Concert Band, along with several individuals who participat- ed in the Solo and Ensemble competitions, also went to Districts. Those receiving a Su- perior went to State competition held in Fort Walton Beach. The carpeting and re-painting of the Band Room was only two of the goals accomplished by the band. Plans for a trip to Washington, D.C. are underway for next year. All in all, the Marching Jackets has had many reasons to be proud of themselves. They not only played well at games they represented the school as well. By: Trang Vu 180— BAND Left: Drum Majors— Sherman Parker and Caroline VanBeek.

There were 115 cadets divided into five flights, or classes, which form a squadran. It was head- ed by Lt. Col. Eskeli, U.S. Air Force; retired, and Sr. Master Sergeant Albert Brooks, U.S. Air Force; retired. The cadets in ROTC learned human rela- tions, resource management, basic drill posi- tions, movements, and commands, and speaking skills that prepare them for leader- ship in any civil military field. To raise money they held a candy sale and worked at the fair as a service project. They raised the flag at all the sports events.

ROTC 185 h A 0 Varsity Football: Alive and Kickin ' The Varsity Jackets concluded their ' 85 season with a 9-7 Homecoming victory over Bishop Moore ending their roller coaster sea- son on a high note after an initial disappoint- ing forfeit to Lake Weir. All seemed well after the Jackets triumphantly returned home after a 21-0 trouncing of Lake Weir in their opening contest, A few weeks later, the Jack- ets suffered a traumatic setback when the discovery of ineligible players forced a forfei- ture of that win. The Jackets attempted to recover, but never seemed able to find the secret of success. This became apparent as the Jackets wound up 5-5 on the field, yet officially only 4-6, at season ' s end. The Jack- ets had their moments throughout the season with wins over St. Cloud, Eustis, and state- ranked Inverness. Among the defeats was a heartbreaking 10-7 overtime loss to ninth- ranked Titusville Astronaut, Despite playing three state-ranked teams, the Jackets showed through their off-field dedication in practice, their effort, their spirit, and their pride in the Jacket tradition.

This characterization could not have been farther from the truth for the cheerleaders at Lees- burg High. They were not only required to keep no lower than a C average in all of their classes, but also receive no unsatisfac- tory marks in conduct. Along with keeping their grades up, they had practices twice a week, with games on Friday nights during football season and as many as three games a week during basketball season. Who could have handled such demands? Tandy Law- rence, Durenda Looney, Chris Galang, Jeanne Seibel, Heather Clements, Mary Al- ice Tucker, Kathleen Young, Pam Godfrey, Stephanie Moye, Mary Grace Phillips, and Kim Newsome. They were also helped along the way by their fantastic sponsors, Rita Cle- ments and Connie Young. The squad attended camp at the Universi- ty of Central Florida where they received a second place award for overall camp perfor- mance. When asked why they would subject themselves to such a schedule, they replied that it is all worth it when a person feels that they have made a difference to the team.

Under the leadership of Coach McDaniel and Coach Rowe, the thirty-six players proved to be worthy of being called the Jackets. Perhaps one of their best games took place at Bishop Moore. With touch- downs made by Brad Dunn, Cory Coleman, and David Fischer, the Jackets demolished the Hornets with a 48-7 win. Though they lost the following week, the team played hard and managed twenty-three points to Ocala Vanguard ' s thirty-one. Thanks in part to the motivation from David Fischer and Jeff Meeks, the two captains, the team finished the season with a win over Gateway. Two others whose dedication was greatly appreci- ated were Candy King and Lisa Klingler, the statisticians. Without them, how could Cory Coleman, the Junior Varsity ' s leading rusher, have known he was averaging 87.3 yards per game after playing only three? In conclusion, even though the Junior Varsity football team finished the season three and three, they were not only a hard working and energetic team, they were a family.

With the new leadership of Miss Daniels and Mrs. Lightfoot, the junior varsity cheerleaders had a great year. To begin their year of excel- lence, the squad went to the University of Flor- ida for a week of camp, where they received ten blue ribbons, and an overall Superior trophy. We put alot of dedication into our work, but it paid off, said Paige Lightfoot, Co-captain of the squad. The squad had two fundraisers to raise money for new uniforms. They had a car wash in August, and sold wreaths and garland at Christ- mas time. At the homecoming game, the eight very peppy girls cheered during the third quar- ter, showing the crowd their excellent moves. However, it was not merely the excellent stunts and coordination of these girls which made them such an outstanding squad. These girls were a family, and were very cooperative among them- selves. They were the true example of a great team. By: Halla Shami and Lindsey Cook n Rl IliiJIlUff 1 A M jMff -- ■ ■■■- -■■ -rr r...

XM5 JUNIOR VARSITY CHEERLEADERS— 197 Swimmers Take the Plunge :i - v i -- . ' . -c s . p As O.B.C. champions, the swim team had a splashy season. With the help of Coach Wells, the girls placed second and the boys placed fourth in the District Meet. For the season, the girls Most Valuable Swim- mer was Susan Suwalski, the Best Sprinter was Jennifer Stephenson, and Leadership went to Janna Adams. For the boys the Most Valuable was Mark Young, Best All Around was Tim White, and the Best Freestyler was Todd Hop- kins. The Boys ended the season with six wins and three losses. The girls, falling from an undefeat- ed season the previous year, ended the season with eight wins and one loss. At state, the swimmers also proved them- selves successful. Susan Suwalski, Jennifer Ste- phenson, and Tammy Vaughn represented the girls ' , and the boys ' relay consisted of Keith Crumpton, Todd Hopkins, Darin Schuster, and Tim White. Susan placed fifth in the 200 yard Freestyle and seventh in the 500 yard Freestyle, while Jennifer placed a respectable thirteenth in the 100 yard Breaststroke and fifteenth in the 50 yard Freestyle and Tammy finished seven- teenth in the 100 yard Breaststroke. The boys did their best times of the year in the 400 yard Freestyle relay. It was easy to see that the team completed a great year with high expectations for next year.

SWIMMING— 199 Diving From New Heights Diving became a strong sport at LHS in 1985. With a team comprised of three girls and four boys, the team was the largest to appear at LHS in many years. In addition to depth, the Sting divers possessed loads of talent. Four of the divers were returning, ex- perienced divers. They were Mark Young, Janna Adams, Kevin Riddle and Evan Keller. These veterans gave advice and support to the newcomers: Tracy Chandler, Greg and Paige Hull. As a team, the divers remained undefeated throughout the regular season. With a lack of divers from competing teams, Leesburg ' s divers were forced to dive among themselves. When the Orange Belt Confer- ence meet came around, the boys placed first through fourth, with Mark Young becoming the new OBC champion; the girls placed first, third and fourth. Paige Hull became the new girls ' champion. As a freshman, Paige pos- sessed remarkable talent and proved it on the boards. When Mark, Janna, and Kevin returned from a summer diving camp, their abilities had improved tremendously. In addition to doing well at conference, Mark and Paige placed high enough (second and fourth, respectfully) at districts to qualify for the FHSAA Class AAA championships State. On their arrival, Paige was informed that her score was inadequate for her to com pete. This came as a shock, but Paige recov ered with the classic statement, Just wait ' ti next year! Then, she expects to win confer ence and districts, and to finish well at state Young, however, went on to compete. 1; Paige Hull keeps her eyes on the board as she comes around on a backward somersault. 2; Approaching a dive.

SWIMMING TEAM— 201 THEY ' RE PLAYING Just like the song, the Jackets were jam- ming, on the court, that is. Varsity basketball took a turn for the better with their best re- cord in recent years. In only fifteen games, they had equalled the number of wins from the last two years. Coach Mike Semanchick, in his second year, is on his way to returning championship caliber basketball to L.H.S. Perhaps the biggest reason for the improve- ment is the players. Guards Tyrone Singleton and Simeon Honer provided excitement for Jacket fans with fast-paced action. Both caused many turnovers and provided several assists and points for the team. Jon Cannon, the team ' s leading scorer, led the team under the board and in the scoring column. Only a sopho- more. East Lowery, was the difference in this team from teams of recent years with his excellent work at forward. Terry Elliot and Scott Windsor alternated at fifth man in the starting line-up. Rod Wright headed a good bench crew. With the momentum built by this team, L.H.S. can look forward to a good bas- ketball team in the future. 9 m a Picture 1: Tip-off!

The Lady Jackets opened the sea- son with a 62 to 49 win against Lake Weir. With Mary Jane Foster as cap- tain, and Suzanne Booth and Jennifer Wallace as co-captains, the Lady Jack- ets maintained their winning record with wins against Wildwood, Inverness Citrus, and Bishop Moore. In a key dis- trict and Orange Belt conference game, a win against Orlando Jones, put the Lady Jackets in sole possession of first place in Conference and Dis- trict. This win proved the Lady Jackets to be favored in the next conference. Mrs. Eason worked hard on achieving the team goal of going to State, Even though Mary Jane Foster injured her leg halfway through the season, and couldn ' t play, she went to every game to support the team. Without their cap- tain, the team still played well, and made Leesburg High proud. GIRLS BASKETBALL— 205 THEY MAKE THE SHOTS The Junior Varsity basketball team had a very successful season. The team had many outstanding players which contributed to sev- eral wins. The team was led by Kevin Honer who had an average of 10.5 points per game, and also led the team in steals. The leading rebounder for the team was Deshawn Calla- han who had an average of 8 rebounds per game. The majority of the players were freshmen and sophomores. These players de- veloped their skills for this season and for the seasons to come. The team had a very enjoyable season. They proved that they could hold their own against tough teams. They played together throughout the season and achieved great success. By: Lindsey Cook and Tony Olive Mr. Dillinger J.V. Basl etball coach.

Under his coaching the team, who had not had a win the past two seasons, end- ed the season with a 7-9 record. The team had only three seniors, which meant most of the players would be returning. Even though the team had a good year there was never a big turnout for any of the home games. Hopefully next year more peo- ple will come out and give the Lady Jackets ' volleyball team the support they deserve. Playing in a starting position this year was an exchange student from Sweden, Erika Berggren, and she did a fine job of fulfilling her position. She will be missed by her team- mates.

Under the leadership of a new coach, Miss Daniels, the team won its first three matches before dropping to Bishop Moore, 34. Pam Dannelly, one of five players to return from the previous year, again held the number one position on the team. According to Pam, The tennis team has improved greatly from last year. This improve- ment was aided by Amy Cox, a fresh- man who earned the number two spot. Betsy Voss, Missy Cameron, Joell Mul- len, and Stacy Sexsmith rounded out the top six positions. Other members of the team included Marja Bridges, Kelli Ebert, Monique Dupree, and Mi- chelle Ausley.

The boys ' ten- nis team; that ' s who, and they ' re certainly playing with a full deck. Playing well in all of their matches, the team also enjoyed fierce competition among themselves. The seed- ings at the beginning of the season were as follows: 1, Doug Moffett, 2, Greg Hull, 3, Williard McClure, 4, Lance Scott, and 5, Allen Robinson. The rankings changed con- stantly as a result of many challenge match- es. Any member of the team could chal- lenge the member who was ranked just above him and would take his place if he won the match. This made the season an exciting turnabout of rankings as weaker players, as well as the stronger ones, improved. With three new members, the team worked extremely hard to sharpen their skills. They practiced every day that they did not have a match at the tennis courts on Palmetto Street from about 3:30 p.m. until 5:15 p.m. Some members like Lee Bridges even attended special clinic and took lessons at the Mission Inn Resort Hotel in Howey-in the-Hills. Coach Dan Cassidy, coaching for his eighth year, made sure the boys worked their hardest and became the very best they could be.

They were the track team members and basketball players as well as foot- ball players and wrestlers. They attend- ed practice everyday after school where they were advised by Coach Tracy Sherrod on weight attempts in both bench press and clean and jerk. Although many of the lifters increased their weights by the close of the sea- son, Terry Wall reached his total from 475 to over 500. Many lifters were also going to attend State. A few of these young men were: Robert Keller, Frank Givens, and Mike Sharp. The team at- tended the Orange Belt Conference taking a third place overall and individ- ual ribbons ranging from first to sixth place. The team had a great season and most importantly had loads of fun, and are very excited about next year, even though the seniors will be missed a great deal.

WRESTLING— 215 ON THE GROUND, IN THE DIRT The chant above is only one of several the Leesburg High School Lady Jackets picked up, pepped up, or made up over the seasons to keep up the stamina of the players and encourage them as they fought off the en- emy in a 10 on 10 battle of skill, hard work, and on occasion, chance. By now you ' re probably wondering what this torturous ex- perience was that these ladies submitted themselves to une ndlessly each and every day? It was a seemingly simple game of en- joyable Softball. But what was to the audi- ence an enjoyable spectator sport, where one can go to relax and enjoy a bag of popcorn, was to these fighting Lady Jackets Softball Players a test of their abilities as they fought long and hard for yet another well-earned victory. Each day after school, rain or shine, these girls would meet at Oak Park field for a rigor- ous workout that included exercising, run- ning several laps, and working on hitting, fielding, and still more running. As a person neared the field, they couldn ' t help but hear the voices of the players as they cheered one another on. Regardless of how tired they were, players such as Tina Beatty and Ta- mara Whisenant kept the players ' spirits up and the fans cheering. Suzanne Booth and Sandy Viola were alwasy there to give every player encouragement and helpful tips. The team was also extremely fortunate to have the talent of several new players such as Re- becca Hysong and Jo Karen Orme. Of course, the team could never have gotten off the ground without the patience and exper- ienced coaching of Mrs. Georgette Eason. As- sistant coach and former LHS shortstop, Ke- turah Roberts, always succeeded in keeping a good sense of humor even after being bom- barded with hard-hit softballs as she tried to duck behind the pitching machine.

LADY SOFTBALL— 217 THE GOLF TEAM 1— Charles Isbell This year ' s golf team was under the coach- ing instruction of Fred Mularsky and Pete Bush. In the opinion of Mr. Muiarsi y, this year ' s team was much better than the pre- vious years. The top five members of the team were: Charles Isbell, Scott Griffith, Judd White, Brad Birdsong, and Gus Griz- zard, but Denny Head and Dale Minich aided in the team ' s victories. The team could be seen practicing on Monday and Thursday afternoons, but when they had matches they practiced on Tuesday afternoons. The har- dest match, according to Gus Grizzard, was the match that they had with Mt. Dora. The statisticians were: Lindsey Cook, Heather Franklin, and Elizabeth Knight. In conclusion, the golf team worked very hard, and did very well. 2 — Scott Griffith 3— Judd White Statisticians: Elizabeth Knight, and Heather Franklin. 218— GOLF TEAM IN THE SWING OF THINGS tafe m -W-+aa- «4 — Brad Birdsong Coaches; Pete Bush and Fred Mularsky Front row: Elizabeth Knight— statistician.

Following a state runner-up year was a hard task for the varsity baseball team, but they came into the season ready for the chal- lenge. Each team member practiced long and hard under the keen and watchful eyes of Coach Buddy Lowe. Having had his share of success in his coaching career, and since suc- cess breeds success, the Jackets were bound for a stellar year. All was not well after the Lyman Invita- tional Tournament, however. The Jackets fought hard but were just overmatched by the bigger 4-A schools in the tournament. Despite the three losses, the team came out of the tournament with a better view of their strengths and weaknesses in this early part of the season. They rebounded strongly with several early-season wins including ones over Lyman (in the tournament), Lake Weir, and Jones. Despite the loss of several key players to graduation, several returning players pro- vided a core for the maturing team. Return- ing senior Kerry Cole along with captains Durham Young (senior) and Steve Madden (junior) provided the necessary leadership for a young team. Along with these, several younger players contributed: John McGlo- horn, David Fischer, Mike Wood, Mark Cli- burn, and Mike Barker. The platers all worked hard and strove for success in base- ball, making them all winners.

That call was music to the ears of the pitchers, coaches, and members of the Leesburg Junior Varsity Baseball Team. The pitchers included Winston Heron, Marcus Lemon, and Rick Rausch. This was fortunate in that if one got hurt an- other could take over. The batgirls were Laura Leugers, (Stats), Piage Lightfoot, and Alesa Atchley. This larger than usual team worked well together and had much talent. It was coached under David Lee and Mike Chap- man. Coach Lee took over for Coach McDaniel and did an excellent job of lead- ing the team into their nineteen games. This young team also participated in several activities. Along with the Varsity team, the J.V. took part in the 100 inning marathon game to raise money for pul- lover jackets. On March 22, both teams also played a double header for the annual BBQ dinner sponsored by the Booster Clu b. Batter up, Jackets!!

BASEBALL— 223 THE JACKET WRESTLING TEAM: The start of a winning tradition? The 1985-86 Jacket wrestling team con- tinued its success from the year before when the team was 11-1-1 for the year. The Jack- ets improved themselves during the summer by weight lifting, attending a summer wres- tling camp, and participating in several tour- naments, including the Sunshine State Games. Coach Kermit Cook led the success- ful wrestlers through a season that saw few losses. After scores such as 69-3 against Ocala Vanguard, 73-0 against Oviedo, and 64-6 against Crystal River and Lake Weir, the Jackets found themselves ranked 6th in state wrestling. Among the triumphs of the 1985-86 wrestling team were a first place finish at the 20 team Hernando Invitational Tournament and a win over previously unde- feated Springstead, which ended their dual match winning streak at 32 matches. The Jacket wrestling team proved that success is a measure of the work, commitment, and pride put into a program. Congratulations to the 1985-86 Jackets and good luck to the continued success of the Leesburg wrestling team.

Hernando Invitational Champs District Runners-up WRESTLING — 225 SOCCER The Leesburg High Soccer team began their second season with high expectations for a great year. After an experimental sea- son for a brand new program, the Jacket soccer team performed above the caliber of play expected. Only a few players were lost to graduation and a much greater number of players joined the tea m. With these factors working for them as well as a year ' s exper- ience, the soccer team showed much im- provement on the field as well as in the stand- ings. In doing so, they provided ample competition for some of the top teams in the state. Coach Bill Hayes, in his second year of coaching, was pleased with the team ' s im- provement. Some of the many players that contributed to a succesful season were: Greg Hull, Steve Tsolakis, John Shaw, Russell Hayes, Jerry Ricketson, and Cory Coleman. The soccer team ' s performance left both students and faculty optimistic towards the future of the soccer program. by Darren McDaniel and Tony Olive Front Row; Jeff White.

Rock Hudson, 59, was one of America ' s leadi ng leading men Handsom, rugged, sexy, he made 65 films and was twice voted Hollywood ' s No 1 box office draw — known best for fiis romantic comedies with Doris Day Last summer he became a leading man of another sort when his admission that he had AIDs drew a belated tide of public attention and funds to the disease. Please God, he has not died in vain, wrote his frlncd Elizabeth Taylor, with whom he costarrcd in Giant (1956). Hudson ' s portrayal of a Texas rancher earned him an Academy Award nomination — and an enduring film image of strength and charm (LIFE. Jan. 1986.) Many of the favorite clothes and fads of Americans included Swatch watches, Reeboks, Levi 501 ' s, and all the novel flavors of Coke. First of all, a major craze was the variety of shapes, styles, and color of the infamous Swatch. They ranged from white to black to plaid. Next, everyone could see a wide range of Reeboks floating around. They came from short to high top, and black to white to red to pink. Another craze of many Americans was the Levi 501 blues. These were the jeans with a button fly and faded tint. Lastly, Coca-Cola brought out New Coke and then after a few weeks on the market, the company decided to bring back their old Coke and call it Classic Coke. At the same time Coca-Cola developed a Cherry Coke. Because of the great craze for these material items, they were found just about in every city of the USA. Copy taken from LIFE Jan. 1986. THE SWATCH CLOCKED IN mo i Space Shuttle Challenger Explodes On Tuesday, January 28, at 11:39 the space shuttle Challenger lifted off to return into space. As the shuttle got as far as eight miles out, the shuttle exploded. No survivors were found. The spontaneous answer for the explo- sion was to blame it on the peel-away rocket boosters of the external fuel tank. The cause was, however, not ab- solutely correct. The entire crew included: Com- mander Francis Scobee, pilot Michael J. Smith, Judy Resnik, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onixuka, Gregory Jarvis, and Christa McAuliffe. The purpose of sending a teacher into space was to have her teach two 15 minute sessions. These would be pertaining to the mission. This would help reach people not involved with the space program. Even though this mis- sion didn ' t succeed, Mr. Reagan plans to send more citizens into space. NEWS— 229 Local and State News Two years ago Main Street in downtown Leesburg was made into a one-way-street. This caused much confusion and squabbling among the local businessmen. Originally, creating a one-way street out of Main Street was intended to attract pedestrians to the slowly declining area. De- spite the city ' s good intentions, the project ' s success was not great enough to outnumber the complaints and prob- lems. As a result, in September of 1985, another plan was devised. This time the city commission agreed on the renewing of the street for two-way traffic again for conve- nience ' s sake to all. The two year experiment was accom- panied by costs totalling nearly thirteen thousand dollars. Despite this cost and some temporary inconveniences, the conversion was successful in reducing much of the area ' s traffic problems.

Jan 1986 On Saturday, August 31, 1985; Labor Day weekend, Leesburg was hit with a surge of tornadoes, while Hurri- cane Elena lay off the northern Gulf Coast. People all along northern and Central Florida were putting away bicycles, lawn furniture, etc., preparing for Elena. Three to six tornadoes hit the Leesburg area. The points hit included: Fern Circle, the Methodist Youth Camp, Bent Bough Drive, Brittany Estates, King ' s Cove and Magnolia Ridge Road in Picciola. In Fern Circle, six houses were totally destroyed. Many roofs were damaged and several trees were uprooted. Total damages equalled about $25 million. At Brittany Estates, the same tornado caused $3 million worth of damage. An 89 year old woman was rushed to the hospi- tal after a mobile home collapsed on her. In Picciola a tornado hit the Methodist Youth Camp and then worked its way over Magnolia Ridge Road and King ' s Cove. Although Hurricane Elena never actually hit Central Florida, its wrath was felt. by Stinger and Deborah Picallo Main Street Connection: As in every other town across the nation, teenagers in Leesburg often complained of having nothing to entertain them. All throughout the year, seeing mov- ies, hanging out at the mall or at McDonald ' s all seemed to grow old. Finally, their cries for something new were heard. In the summer of 1985 Main Street Connection was introduced. The non-alcoholic teen club featuring a lighted dance floor, live di sc-jockey, several pool ta- bles, video games, and refreshments, opened shortly after school was let out for the summer, and quickly proved itself a success. During the summer. Main Street Connection was open on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings. During school it remained open on Friday and Saturday evenings only from 8:00 P.M. until 1:00 A.M. The club kept the teens coming back with weekly talent shows, a beauty contest, and visits by Y-106 a radio station in Orlando. 230— NEWS A capsule summary of 1985 By The Associated Press Here are the dates of the year ' s top news stones Jin. 1 : Eastern Airlines plane crashes in Bolivia with 29 passengers and creW aboard Jin. 7-8: Secretary of State George Shultz meets with Soviet foreign minister Andrei Gromyko in Geneva Jan. 10: Daniel Ortega inaugurated as Nicaraguan president, United States informs World Court that it will not participate in proceedings relating to a suit by Nicaragua Jan. 14: Ethiopian train crash kills 400 Jan. 15: Tancredo Neves elected Brazilian president.

Two of our students, Jensie Hardy and Robert Moody, participated in the Rotary In- ternational Exchange Program. Jensie spent a month in Frankenthal, Germany with the Pilches. Their daughter, Beate, later came back to spend a month with Jensie. While in Germany she visited Frankfurt, Heidelberg, Bonn and Cologne. She also spent a few days in Venice, Italy and in Austria. Robert spent his time with the Hafner fam- ily of Simmern, Germany. He visited many German cities including Trier, Mainz, Mann- heim, Cologne, Bonn and Heidelberg. He also visited Strasbourgh, France. Till Hafner returned home with Robert and spent an ex- citing and eventful month with the Moody family. Both students felt that this is a very worth- while program, and a much better way to spend the summer than just sitting at home soaking up the rays . Other students went a more traditional route and toured several European countries with some of our teachers. Mrs. Clendinen took twelve students on a twenty-five day tour. They visited Greece, England, France and Switzerland. They saw the Parthenon and Acropolis in Greece, and in Rome they visited the Colosseum, the Vati- can and the Sistine Chapel. The students went to St. Peter ' s Basilica where they saw Pope John Paul II. In Santa Croce they vis- ited Michelangelo ' s tomb along with Michia- velli ' s and Galileo ' s. They then went skiing in the Swiss Alps and shopping at Interlaken. From Switzer- land they took a bullet train to Paris, France. The students were fortunate enough to visit Notre Dame during an ordination of priest. The group then journeyed to England by hovercraft to see such sights as the Tower of London and Buckingham palace. From there they flew home. Mrs. Hayes and Mrs. Baird also took a group of students to Europe. They visited many cities such as: London, Dover, Ver- sailles, Lucerne, Florence, Rome, and Ca- lais. Every day was exciting with its itinerary full of thrilling activities. The group visited the Tower of London, St. Peter ' s Basilica in Rome, took a scenic tour boat cruise in Baton- mouche, watched the play 42nd Street in London, and went to a disco in Florence. Meanwhile, back in the States, Carol Dan- nelly and Anna Molina attended the National Junior Classical League Convention in New Hampshire. This league is the national orga- nization for the preservation of the classics. Prior to the convention, they toured the Bos- ton area with twenty students from Satellite Beach. Some of the sights they saw were: The Boston Tea Party ship, the Italian Festi- val, Quincy Market and the Freedom Trail. They also visited Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts, where the first battle of the American Revolution was fought. After the Boston tour they went to the University of New Hampshire where the con- vention was held. At the convention they at- tended seminars, took tests, competed in Olympics and threw parties. There were 140 members of the Florida delegation, making them the largest group at the forum. The ten days that Carol and Anna spent in New England will long be treasured memo- ries to them.

SUMMER VACATIONS— 279 Dale Minich P.R.I.D.E. is a state-wide program spon- sored by the Department of Education to en- courage excellence in academics. This pro- gram was started two years ago and tests seniors in four subject areas: Math, science, social studies and writing. To qualify for the tests, students must achieve a 3.5 grade point average in the subject area, rank in the top 10% of the S.A.T. and have completed or are completeing four credits in the subject area. Leesburg High ' s P.R.I.D.E. winners this year were: Roger Huff, Michael Elm- strom. Dale Minich, and Robert Moody. Roger placed first in the social studies test which covers a wide range of subjects. Knowledge in geography, history, sociology. The P.R.I.D.E. Of LHS L. H. S. A C H I E V E R S psychology, economics, and government is measured in the test. Roger competed in all four subject areas of the program. He also took first place in the school-wide writing competition in order to compete at the coun- ty level. Earlier this term, Roger won the Century 111 Leaders of Tomorrow essay and leadership contest on the school level. Roger also received an NROTC Scholarship and is planning to attend Cornell University. Michael Elmstrom placed second in the mathematics competition. Michael also en- tered all four of the contests. Mike is active in Latin Club and National Honor Society. He is also a member of the soccer team, Michael plans to attend Georgia Tech on a ROTC Robert Moody scholarship. Dale Minich placed second in the county in the science division. Dale prepared all year for the contest by studying a backlog of chem- istry tests, and reviewing a biology text. Car- ol Drazinic of Eustis High took top honors in both science and math, and since a student cannot compete in two areas in the regional competition. Dale was the representative for the science competition. Robert Moody placed third in the social studies competition. Robert enjoys playing on the soccer team. Robert will attend Lake Sumter Community College and would like to continue his studies at Florida State. He is planning a career in denistry. 280— P.R.I.D.E. LOOKING BACK 1. The thing I most wanted to do this year and never got the chance to do was 2. The most embarrassing thing to happen to me in public this year was 3. The person I most wanted to ask out but never had the guts to was 4. I attended homecoming and prom with- and , but I REALLY wanted to take and 5. The best comeback I ever had after the argument was already over was 6. On the weekends, I always did but I told my parents I was doing 7. The event that made me the absolute happiest all year was 8. The person I fantisized about constantly this year 9. My best friends, who stuck by me no matter what were. 10. The teacher I most wanted to give my own person- al Pie in the face award to was Group Movie Date Album Song Video Books Concert MEMORY— 281 Dear Students and Faculty, I would like to take this time to thank you for working with me, Mrs. Lockett, and my staff throughout the year. We put much time and hard work into this book and so 1 hope you like it and appreciate our dedication. We really did work in yearbook class, even if we did make lots of noise and create many problems. The theme of this book is Opening New Doors . That is the purpose of the door on the front cover. We felt that our school was widening its horizons and thus we chose the theme. Many of our sport teams had winning seasons. Student Council, Triad, and NHS as well as all the other clubs and organizations on campus had projects planned continously to keep the student body involved. Many stu- dents also excelled in academics creating more gifted classes and a very long honor roll. So, with all the expansions to our school, we decided on our theme, which is carried throughout the book. As I approach graduation and leave the yearbook staff, 1 feel 1 should leave everyone something special. To start with 1 leave Carla Klingler all the great times at workshops and a big thanks for your help and encouragement. Next, to Charles 1 leave a big thank you for a job well done on the senior section and all the proofing you did. To Darren McDaniel 1 leave the headaches of figuring out a teacher section for next year. Next, to Trang 1 leave a new ledger for next year and a better grade than Charles ' . Also, 1 leave Tony Olive the ability to keep Trang ' s shoes inside and to not get caught climbing back inside the windows. To Robby 1 will you the ability to load your camera properly. To Jessica 1 give you a round of applause for all the typing of the senior index. Now, to Christy, 1 thank you for all the wonderful back rubs on deadline days. And to Lisa I give you the power to carry the Young name on at LHS. Next on my list are Stephanie and Elizabeth. 1 leave you patience to stay on staff for three more years of fun and Craig ' s computer. Oh Craig, I almost forgot all your hard work compiling ad and yearbook sales — sorry! Scott Moeller, 1 thank you for all the updates on wrestling and football; they were interesting. To Mary Alice I leave you a thank you for your help in copy reading and our private parties in Mama ' s office. To Heather, I commend you for your errorless layouts and Mom ' s desk first period again. Also Lindsey, 1 leave you two more great years at LHS and on staff. Now Tamara, 1 give you loads of film and a great job on all your layouts. Also, Pat and Jennifer, 1 leave you both a new camera for Pat and a new purse for Jennifer.
