Practically over all of the country, people felt Mother Nature’s chilling winds and frosty snow. Due to the lack of energy to heat buildings, many factories and stores were closed. President Carter announced twice on national television to cut down on the energy consumption. Lew Wallace was closed to help do our part in conserving fuel. The all-city strike by the janitors and secretaries also added to fewer days attended by students. 1. Gentlemen, start your engines! That sounds easy enough, but with this much ice and snow, it became quite a tricky task. 2. Winter can seem very lonely at times. 3. A hazy January day’s sun sets and Lew Wallace ends another school day. 4. When all else fails, get walking. With our snowfall, be careful not to sink. 5. Mrs. Skinta and Mrs. Shelborne spent some bitter cold days picketing during the )anitor- Secretary strike. 6. No matter how cold or snowy, students can have fun in spite of the weather. Missed School Make up an Unforgettable Winter U L L L L L V- 3p 3|? Jjw JJQ Learning and knowledge are not only gathered from books. At Lew Wallace, we were able to. present many assemblies which added to our learning and knowledge of many other cultures, lifestyles, and the arts. Last year our assemblies ranged from symphonies to jazz, kung fu to dances, drama to comedy. Some of the other assemblies were more school sponsored in theme, such as Cultural Week, pep rallies and Student Council installation to name a few. Though some were more for our enjoyment, all were mainly presented to enlighten our thinking and broaden our own awareness. 1. The All City Orchestra provided us with some melodious sounds. 2. Mr. Christoff conveys the school ' s congratulations to the gridmen for capturing the conference crown. 3. The Air Force Rock Band. Mach One. performed for the student body many good rock tunes. 4.

Taking pride in your class and showing your spirit is what Spirit Week is all about. Celebrated the week of February 14-18, Spirit Week 1977 displayed the talent and enthusiasm of students and teachers alike. The Freshman class started the week off with their decorated hall. The theme, “Spring Is In The Air” sparked warm weather clothes, baseballs and tennis racquets. On Tuesday, the Sophomore class brought us their Sophomore Circus. Lions, clowns and other circus sights could be seen walking around Wallace that day. That Was Then, This Is Now,” was the Junior class theme. The Juniors featured murals of major public figures and events of the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and today. The Class of 1977 won the hall competition with the theme, “Senior Space Odyssey. There was a variety of strange looking creatures from every planet in the Universe. The Seniors really ended their four years with a spectacular finale. On Friday, the Lew Wallace Olympics was presented seventh hour. Tug of war and wheel barrow races were just two of the many fantastic events held. All in all Spirit Week provided a needed valve to let out our built up tensions. 1. On your mark, get set. walk! Participants in the Olympics prepare for the wheel barrow competition. 2. The Class of ' 78 worked hard on their hall with the theme. “That Was Then. This Is Now. 3. Two teams of Freshmen pull with all their might in the tug of war contest. 4. Senior Katie Agee puts the finishing touches on a creation for the class hall. 24 25 Bells Ring at 3:30 and the Fun Begins at 3:31 1 ' After 3: 30 there’s no telling where Wallace students are headed. Maybe a trip out on Route 30 to the Mall or skating at the Rink. You may even spot Wallace kids at Stardust Bowl working on their 300 game or avoiding scratching at the pool tables. Don’t forget all the many working kids whose jobs are in the Glen Park and Merrillville vicinity. There are a few students who participate in outside sports such as hockey and soccer. After all the activities though. Mac’s and Arby’s are THE places where the student body celebrates wins, losses and anything they can think of. 1. A Wallace hockey player skates after a puck. 2. Winning a pinball game does wonders on a quiet Thursday afternoon. 3. Concentrating is a bowler at Stardust. 4. A group of Wallace students relax at the billiard tables in Stardust. 5. “Pick up the spare” is t he cry as the bowler is about to release the ball. 6. Optimists face off at a hockey game. 27 5|C Cultural Week Enhances Our Ethnic Pride Jfc 30 The week of March 14th through 18th was dedicated to the annual Cultural Celebration here at Lew Wallace. Under the guidance of Mr. Sam Poliak, committees worked to unify the school. The Honor Society worked to schedule speakers who came to inform classes of their own experiences with other lands and peoples. In addition to their oral reports, speakers brought films, filmstrips, and records to complete their lectures. On Friday, the staff was treated to a luncheon of multi-ethnic dishes and pastries by the Russian Club. As a finale, the entire student body was invited to a two hour program which was under the sponsorship of Mr. Anthony Valle and the Ethnic Club. Songs and dances, both traditional and modern, were performed for the benefit of Wallacites cultural awareness. Greek, Russian, Macedonian, Polish, African, Puerto Rican, and Mexican cultural groups all danced before the student body and invited parents and School City guests. 1. Three Greek students perform their ethnic dance. 2. A group of Macedonians show off their culture’s dance. 3. Polish girls reel to the sound of their folk music. 4.

The Windy City of Chicago played host to many big name groups this year. As the lights dimmed at the start of each concert, screams and applause brought out many groups, such as the Eagles, Queen, Frampton, and many others. Also this year came the Super Bowl of Rock. Held at Soldier Field in Chicago, concert-goers saw E L P, Foghat, in Game One. Game Two featured an evening with Pink Floyd. During the summer many other concerts were held. If you couldn’t get to a concert, students went to record stores to get the hottest sounds of the hottest groups. u CA 1.

Fads and Fashion Betray Insanity and Distinction h •ir % m : ' Two of the most changeable reflections of our society are fads and fashions. Each represent and affect our lifestyle today as in the past. For example, in the sixties, having a Beatle haircut or owning a mini skirt was THE thing. Though our tastes in music, fashion and entertainment change, there are always certain types of clothing and other popular items labeled as “fashionable” or “faddish.” In 1977 some of the most fashionable attire included painter’s pants, boots, gaucho pants, Indian sweaters and of course, jeans. Fads included CB radios, Farrah Fawcett, disaster films, flower chokers and Bubble Yum. Here today and maybe, gone tomorrow, these current topics are always some of the craziest but greatly treasured memories we have. Two Years Later: Are Times A little more than two years ago, Lew Wallace was involved in one of the worst battles in her history. February 7,1975 and the days following are ones that shall stand out in the minds of those students, faculty and administrators who experienced the upsets which followed. For those who may question what this “battle” was about, the name Muhammed Ali should clear up the confusion. The assembly in which Ali unknowingly tore up almost all of the racial ties Blacks and Whites had was the beginning of a troublesome period for our Lew Wallace students. His speech, directed mainly, in his own words “to the minority students, and the rest of you don’t have to listen now,” brought boos and obscene remarks out of whites and cheers from Black students. But that speech wasn ' t all which hurt feelings and caused anger on both sides. Because of misunderstandings on the part of all students, pupils began leaving before the program’s end. Blacks felt offended and whites felt faced with a situation in which they were unwelcome and fearful. As the week progressed, tension mounted. Countless fights, before during and after school occurred, all because of the injustice both sides felt. Although suspensions were handed out, nothing could fix the dam which had burst. School was closed for several days and committees of staff, 4c 38 students and parents were formed to look into the situation. Though sufficient time has passed, have the wounds healed? Many upperclassmen feel not. Junior Mark Smolinski believes, ‘There are less racial fights than there were those few weeks. It seems that since then Blacks and Whites keep their distance from one another.” One Senior feels that the school recognizes Blacks more; the only trouble is that the two races can’t jointly involve themselves without hostile feelings. But what can be said now for those freshmen and sophomores who only heard stories of the great turmoil? Some sophomores admit that it was more frightening in the tales than in reality. But as one Sophomore pointed out, “It’s pretty obvious that the back entrances (facing 47th Avenue) are dominated by whites. As a result, Blacks control 45th Avenue. Anyone who comes to those entrances not common to them are subject to angers and are subject to sneers and comments.” It seems to us at Wallace to be a cold war; whites stay with whites and cut down Blacks in private. Blacks stay with Blacks and cut down whites. It would seem if rules applied here these attitudes should remain constant, but they don’t. As Dino Travline, a Junior states, “Certain sports such as football, baseball, swimming and wrestling are predominately white and other sports are considered dominated by Blacks, such as basketball and Really Changing? track. But by no means is either discriminated against when teams are formed. There are whites on track and Blacks in football. That ' s proof enough.” Clubs and activities sometimes are a problem. Whites don’t participate in Hi-Y nor are there any Black members in the Ethnic Club. Sometimes when clubs can’t handle changes in the membership, all Blacks or all whites will drop out, leaving it, not an interest club, but an organization for one particular race, but not always. As a matter of fact, most clubs at Wallace are integrated. For example, Student Council membership is pretty well mixed. And, after speaking to class officers and representatives, when joined for one cause the racial and ethnic differences seem unimportant. What’s important is the purpose involved. Perhaps people haven’t changed at Wallace. Maybe those people who are fighting would fight no matter if the riot had happened or not. As a Junior put it, ‘To some people, a nigger is always a nigger, a honkey’s always a honkey. No matter what is said and done, it comes down to that ’ Is that an appropriate answer to such a pressing problem? It may seem too late to stop the wheels that are already set in motion. Kathy McDonald, Sophomore Class president, included in her inaugural speech the importance of racial and ethnic understanding. And, that the hostile feelings we may have should be put aside and students should con¬ centrate on bettering the class. If only all students could think that way, Lew Wallace would be ahead of the game. There is hardly anything left to be said. After all the sit ins and rap sessions of two years ago, it seems that we got nothing but a lot half-hearted promises. If a handful of people are determined to keep the races apart, whether through fist fights or cold stares, they will, just be making it rough on others. It’s easy to write it off, saying it was Ali’s fault for coming and stirring up hard feelings. But if those prejudiced feelings weren’t there to begin with, no one could ever create a riot about discrimination. What was said by Ali couldn’t be changed, yet the reactions to it could have been. Committees met but never related their findings to the school. Parents called local radio stations with complaints and highflown solutions, but never took the time to put them Parties are almost strictly segregated, not only by racial, but by ethnic groups as well. Can there be a solution to the problems which face Lew Wallace? The only answer seems to be with the personal attitudes of the students and faculty. Unless those can be brought about. Violence apparently did not do the job, so what can be done to change people? As a Junior said, “1 have to live by what I’ve learned. My parents and my friends all have an effect on what I feel. It’s pretty hard to change my whole life.” In the same vein, a Senior stated, “I have my own beliefs, but there’s a lot of pressure from other people to act with the group.” On the opposite hand, one Black Sophomore said, “I don’t want to mix with whites. I think the whites feel everything they do is better. I want my own culture and my own music.” Yet a Freshman says, “When Blacks demand equality with whites, they turn around into action. Administrators and staff made promises, but no real progress was ever seen. The local paper practically ignored the existence of a problem. TV stations covered Lew Wallace, but no follow-ups ever checked on results. So here we sit, two years later. What has been done? What was accomplished? Fights still occur with regularity in the hallways—many of them prompted by racial slurs. The races still segregate—in the cafeteria, in clubs, in classes, in assemblies, almost anywhere students come in groups. Rarely will mixed groups be seen cruising up and down Broadway. and try to segregate again after they get what they started out for. It seems like no real sharing of things really goes on.” What do we now? Where do we go from here? Are there any answers? The answers seem to be something which must come from the heart of each individual. Everyone must make his or her own choice. And yet as a Junior said, ‘There’s no way. You can’t force change in people.” It would seem that the only attitude changes come through personal exposure and new experience. One Sophomore said it when she stated, “I know I’ve changed my views in the last four years. Experiences with both Blacks and whites have shown me that you can’t put everyone in the same category. There’s trash in both races, and you have to be able to choose for yourself the best person and not the ‘best’ race.” The Quill and Blade staff would like to note that some of the names of students were omitted in the above report at their request. We feel that this is a definite indication of the severity of the problem which faces the Lew Wallace community. 39 afc Tropical Theme Renting tuxes ... brand new dresses ... ordering flowers ... finding “the hard to find” garter ... taking an hour long bubble bath ... romantic moments ... next day picnics on a grassy meadow ... were all part of the Junior- Senior Prom. Set to the theme of “Lover’s Paradise,” the Prom was held at the Greek Cathedral Hall in Merrillville on May 20th. Decorated to a Hawaiian theme, couples danced to “November’s Guest,” as they moved around palm trees, a Hawaiian hut, and a Tiki god. Dinner was served at 11 and at 12, couples boogied to the music of “Foundation” at the Post-Prom. The next day was spent relaxing and having fun, as many students headed out to Great America, Turkey Run, and Pokagan, to enjoy picnics, canoeing, and enjoying themselves throughout the day.

Disecting frogs in Biology class was not your favorite pastime. So now you’re a junior. You seemed to grow up so much during the summer. Prom is one event that you don’t ever think you’ll forget. Summer and finally you’re classified as a senior. Senior pics were taken and when you went back to school in September, you realized that this is it. Winning Spirit Week hall competition was a breeze. Before you realized it the year was at it’s end. Zotting gave you one last time to decorate the school. Saying good-bye to friends was hard.

Principals Demonstrate Principles Providing answers to problems is an everyday task for the Lew Wallace administration. They not only demonstrate but help the student perfect their own conduct for everyday situations now and in the future. Because of the large student body attending Wallace, Principal Mr. Christ Christoff cannot perform this task alone, but fortunately for the students he has Mr. Alfred Smith, Mr. Steve Bazin, and Mr. Howard King to assist him. A new addition this year is Dean of Students Mr. Clausell Harding. He handles all of the truancy and detention cases, keeping quite busy with the six day limit absences rule. 1.

But writing admits and tardy slips, as most students see it isn’t all our secretaries have to do. All day they’re busy paying bills, keeping the records accurate, and checking up on the attendance records. These are just a few of the jobs the secretaries are responsible for in that big, busy office. Although some students don’t realize it, there are many who see school couldn’t function very well without them. 1. Mrs. Burrows takes time out of her busy day to water the plants. 2. Mrs. Sorcevich had such a nice smile on her face we couldn ' t resist the picture. 3. Starting from left to right Miss Sakes, Mrs. Skinta, Miss Hayes, Mrs. Vance, Mrs. Bullock, and Mrs. Campbell, all take a break from their daily routine. 56 A Good Place to Think Because many students don’t like to take time out of their busy after school activities, th e library at Wallace has offered many other ways of understanding different subjects. Not only for these students, but for everyone there are pamphlets, records, and sound film strips. These are just a few ways the Library makes learning for the students a little easier. But these are just optional studies—the Library hasn’t changed at all for the students who like to keep their noses in books, there are still a wide variety of books to choose from in the Library. 4. One of the library aides shows her assistant how to check out books the right way. 5. Diane Shipman listens to Mrs. Foster as she answers a question for her. 6. A Lew Wallace student takes time out to study privately in the Library. 57 Calculators Promote Accuracy Proofs, graphs, equations and calculations all provided the mathmatically minded student with some new challenges. With math being one of the required courses to graduate, there is a wide selection to choose from. There is Math IV, for the accelerated student, or General Math for those who are not college bound. Calculators being very popular this year proved a great asset to students in Calculus or Trigometry courses. Students who are enrolled in Chemistry courses found the calculator skills very useful. There is Statistics and Probabilitys for students to learn how to beat the odds. For the competitive student a series of Math contests were held at different schools throughout the year. 58 1. Mr. Jones keeps an eye on his class during their final examination. 2. Mr. Hill explains a geometric diagram on the board to his Geometry class. 3. Mr. Hill sits down and talks things over with some of his students. 4. Mr. O’Connell looks out the door while waiting for an answer. 5. One of the Math students works out a problem on the chalk board. 6. Mr. Deitsch grins while showing someone his grade book. 59 ♦ 60 1. The choir in action is performing in the play that was about Charlie Brown. 2. Pam Konikowski marches along with the band during one of the football games. 3. Sing along with Mr. Fissinger. 4 What pieces of art our students produce. 5. A one, and a two, and a three, is how Mr. Chilson begins his band class. 6. Working quickly is one of the art students. 7. Becky Merced and Carolyn Jenson experiment in Photography. They are trying to decide the best pose for a portrait. The Fine Arts Department helps students display all their talents. This year the choir had a number of speakers, performers, and field trips that highlighted the program. Art students were given a chance to improve and display their fine work through periodic shows in the display cases throughout the building. The Drama class spent many hard hours a day preparing for their spring production. While these students were busy working inside the Band was practicing many hard hours preparing for the football games outside. Meanwhile the Photography students searched for that special picture. 61 Listening to tapes recorded by student volunteers or reading their assignments in braille, is something the blind and handicap students do while they’re not attending regular classes. For the slower learning students there were special classes to help them along. The TESOL or foreign speaking students advanced progressively throughout the year as a result of a series of twelve books and constant attention from the aides. Teaching English to non-English speaking students is a very difficult task, but the new Lew Wallace students accomplished their goal of competancy. 1. Miss Bullot uses lip reading as a method of teaching the deaf. 2. Gregg Walton has a discussion in class using sign language. 3. Students sit back to watch their teacher explain a lesson. 4. TESOL students learn to read and write English. 5. Foreign students read books aloud in English. 6. TESOL students work hard on a test. 62 I I Special Services Offer Help 63 64 English Dept. Takes a Trip to see The Wiz Pencils, paper, notebooks, grammar, and reading are all a part of the average English class. For the sophomores who like to be on their own Independent Study is available. English IV is almost a must for the senior planning to enter college. Some English classes had the opportunity to go to Chicago to see “The Wiz, a musical version of “The Wizard of OZ. Mini-courses fill the interests for the everyday student. It allows them to take a break from the same teacher all year. 1. Student volunteers to tutor grade schoolers. 2. Diane Flanegan daydreams after a hard hour’s work. 3. Mr. Schmid reviews the English assignment. 4. An English class cooperates in group work. 5. Mrs. Yorko’s class gathers aroun d to observe something. 6. Gina White tries to figure out the right answer during her test. 65 Typing Provides Useful Talent For Future To prepare Hornets for future office careers, students in the business department gained practical experience in secretarial skills. In shorthand classes students experienced dictation and transcription and worked to gain higher speeds. To have a real look at a secretary’s life, the shorthand students traveled to Lake County Court House and Twin Towers Office Complex. For the advanced typist there were transcribing machines to help increase and better their skills. For the students who weren’t sure of their future plans but wanted to get a taste of business techniques, Bookkeeping, General Business, Business Law, and Personal Typing courses were offered. 1. Lynn Shutz sits back to take a break and chat with Chris Beamon. 2. Mrs. Speck helps a student who has trouble in typing II. 3. Sue Tkacs looks up to take a break in Shorthand I. 5. Students in Typing II have to use a little Mathmatics to figure out their margins. 6. Mrs. Speck gives her students a pat on the shoulder for doing a goi job. 67 Social Studies Looks at Today and Tomorrow The Social Studies Department offers courses such as United States History. Government and Economics, and World Civilization for the basis of the program. Students may also choose classes relating to the present social problems in their environment, such as Afro-American History and Social Problems. The teachers try to prepare the students for various problems they may encounter in society so that it will be easier to cope and find a solution. Not only to get the students to look into the future, but to keep them aware of what’s happening today, current events are discussed quite frequently. 1. Miss Kouvelas points out a map to a student 2. One of the students who has nothing to do catches up on her reading while assisting a teacher. 3. Mr. Chaney smiles big when our photographer strolls past, but he is planning the week’s schedule. 68 4. Three students in History class sit quietly while taking a test. 5. Students in World Civilization class are ready to pull their hair out because they weren’t prepared for final exams. 6. |ay DuMay smiles as he reads up on the times. Really, it’s the comics. Foreign Languages Supply Variety Gaining knowledge of the language of a foreign country along with its culture is like becoming part of the country. In the multi-lingual society, Lew Wallace has incorporated a variety of foreign languages into its curriculum to meet the demands of the community. Spanish, French, Russian, Latin, and German are the languages offered to Wallacites. Students progress by using visual aids, electric chandeliers, hanging earphones, and oral discussion. The Hornets who continue into their third and fourth years with these languages study the cultural aspects of the languages by studying traditions, preparing foods, and learning the geography of the land. 2 ♦ 70 1. Sophomores discuss Spanish Illy. 2. Students organize a project. 3. Mr. Stewart shows a pupil what went wrong on a test. 4. Laura Chiliemi turns around to confirm an answer. 5. Cedric Randle and Davida Hershman look over their books before a test. 6.

In the Wallace Science department, students are able to experiment individually with modern laboratory equipment, which helps the student understand with greater depth. Basic courses in physical and bio¬ physical science, biology and physics were offered for the students who are sure of themselves, advanced courses in physics, chemistry, and biology were offered. Biology class has its ups and downs for most students. The annual dissecting of frogs is an experiment each biology student experiences. The science department is a very educational one and one needed if planning on going in to a medical career, but, it also lets the students investigate the nature of the world in which we live. 1. Biology class reads a chapter before the test tomorrow. 2. Mr. Vereb puts it down in black and white to help out the students. 3. Roberta Kaplar studies intently before her Advanced Biology final. 4. Dan Walman and Carol Shafis dispute a problem. 5. Diane Vician covers her face while trying to prove a point. 6. Bill Maxin wonders what to do next. 73 Industrial Arts Show Skills In the Industrial Arts department students with special talents can learn more about the subject they’re interested in, and change them into useful skills. Courses offered to Industrial Arts students include woodshop, electric shop, print shop, metal shop, power mechanics, and mechanical drawing; which gives the students a wide variety to choose from to receive the training they need for working in the industrial world. The Industrial Arts department is equipped very well with tools an and machines identical to those found on-the- job in industry. 74 75 + ROTC Attracts Attention Students who enroll in ROTC not only go to daily classroom sessions, but also go through weekly inspections, an annual inspection and participation in city-wide competition. The members from the Male and Female Drill Team practice many long and hard hours after school to perfect their routine for competition at West Side where schools from all over the city compete. All the competition and classroom work keeps the Drill Teams busy. 1. Major Melva Medrano orders the commands to the Color Guards before a basketball game while spectators look on. 2. Standing at attention, the Color Guards with flags raised await the Star Spangled Banner at the football hoecoming game. 3. Snap, click, tap. bang are the sound the Color Guards make during their demonstration. 2 |M ;; 3 76 Gym Classes Lead Off At Lew Wallace you can bet there’s more to Phys Ed than just sit-ups and jumping jacks. Basketball, swimming, volleyball, tennis, handball or any sport—all are ways provided to encourage physical fitness. Health and Safety are two more courses taught by the Physical Education Dept. Included in the Safety class, are mouth to mouth resuscitation and CPR. These two types of training may come in handy for emergency purposes in the future.

It’s a way to prepare for events in everyday life, and practical experience is offered through labs, speakers, and demonstrations. Sewing the latest fashions or conjuring up some exotic dish is only part of the Home Ec curriculum. Child Development, Consumer Education, Interpersonal Relationships, and Family Relationships are a few of the courses offered to supply students a chance for self-expression. A Christmas party was one of the programs sponsored by the Child development classes which brought relatives and friends of the students to Wallace to share the seasonal cheer.

They also succeeded in winning the Northwest Conference title again making it the second straight year they grabbed the conference crown. The team gave the fans something to cheer about by winning the Wallace Homecoming game against Horace Mann by a score of 49-12. Another joyous moment for the team was when they slipped past one of the Hornet’s strongest rivals, the Andrean ’59ers. The Hornets buzzed to victory after victory with the help and guidance of the coaching staff, headed by Mr. Mike Jennings, along with Mr. Dave Templin and Mr. Ira Judge. As one player said, “The coaching staff did a beautiful job this year. They made us state contenders.” FRONT ROW: Manager Nancy Shutz, Manager Tracie Samson, Stuart Shultz, Kevin Brunski, Tom Wilk, Bruce Macchia.

The Freshmen team came back from a five-game losing streak by winning the next six games and snatched the city crown. The Reserve team finished the season with a record of 3-2. And, of course, the Varsity team cornered the Conference crown once again. Mr. Jim Kendig was the Freshmen coach who led them to their winning season. Coach Mike Jennings said this of the Varsity Team, “We accomplished our goal of winning the conference, but our record (8-2) was better than expected.” Coach Jennings also stated that the team’s stars were all the seniors. With 75% of the team returning, L.W. can look for another winning season. I 2 1. John Steffanelli, Mark Reid, and Greg Mazonas watch as Mark Bardeson is tackled by a rival player. 2.

Besides showing that they could play football, they ran to an 8-2 season this year. Coaches Mike Jennings, Ira Judge, and Dave Templin, with their ’77 Hornets, snatched the Northwest Conference crown, and ranked 16th in the state. The gridmen defeated such teams as Roosevelt, by a score of 43-6, and Munster, whom the Hornets barely squeezed by with a score of 13-12.

Tennis teams, though they returned many a serve to their opponents, still ended with a losing season of 4-7. With four seniors on the team, about 70% of the players will be returning to try to volley to some victories. Coach Nick Day strived to make a winning team out of the players, but, although he worked up many a sweat, the goal just couldn’t be met. The best player on the team, according to Coach Day, was Joe Olah, and his record of 10-3 backs up that statement. As a senior, Olah will leave the team to do without him next year. Some victories on L.W.’s record are over Emerson, Horace Mann, and West Side, whom the Hornets shut out with a score of 5-0. A 1.

Coach Ed Brown was the one who was never too far away, keeping a watchful eye on the members of the team. Some of the teams that the Hornets beat were Emerson, Andrean, and Merrillville. They also placed a proud fourth in the Northwest Conference, and 11th in the Sectionals. They also ran in many Invitationals. 1. Coach Ed Brown gives a runner some advice. 2.

They may have spiked and blocked their hearts out, but somehow that winning season slipped past the 1977 Varsity and Reserve Volleyball teams. Although their coach Miss Janis Qualizza watched over them game after game, the teams still couldn’t get that extra point or that one block that wins the games. Though some of the team members won’t be returning next year, about 3 A of the team will be, and they, along with the new players the team will have, could give the Hornets a winning season. 1.

Though they didn’t succeed in winning every meet, they did manage to steal a few victories from their rivals. The team was made up of four freshmen, seven sophomores, one junior, and eight seniors. Coach Ernest Vereb was the guide of the team. As Coach Vereb said of the team, “They were hard-working, self-sacrificing athletes, trying to overcome an impossible handicap.” The star Lew Wallace merman was Virgil Strauss, who missed making the state finals by .10 of a second. With two-thirds of the team returning next year, the outlook for next year is brighter. 1. Swimmers fly into the water as another meet begins. Z A timer watches as a swimmer finishes another lap. 3.

The team, which was coached by Mr. Dave Templin, was made up of sophomores, juniors, and seniors. One senior who will be missed is Duane Yuraitis, who was the best player on the team, according to many LW wrestling fans. Although the team record of 4-6 doesn’t give the impression of a winning season, many people thought that the grapplers wrestled like winners.

While they didn’t win every game, the teams did pull through on some important ones. The Lew Wallace Basketball Homecoming game was one of the victories that was a real crowd-pleaser, and it sent the ’77 seniors on their way in a cheerful mood.

As Coach Chaney said, “I thought this season was better than expected. We had a lot of talent.” Hopefully, we’ll be seeing many of these faces on the reserve team next year.

But just because they didn’t have a winning season. Hornet fans didn’t lose all faith. As one fan put it, “I think both teams played well. Maybe they didn’t win every game, but they showed spirit, determination, and sportsmanship ..Coach Nick Day was the behind the scenes mentor of the Hornets who stayed with them through the good and the bad. The ballplayers did manage to out-hit several teams including Merrillville, Calumet, and Crown Point, whom they outplayed with a final score of 8-1. FRONT ROW: Shawn Corle. Joe Renik.

They ended with a record of 8-1, with the watchful eye of Coach John Russell on them game after game. The team, which was a young one, was made up mostly of freshmen and sophomores. With a lot of the players coming back, Coach Russell says he has hopes about next year’s team. 1.

In my opinion Frank Venturella was the best player.” That was what Coach Bill Kukoy said of the ’77 Lew Wallace Golf team. This year’s golfers ended the season with a 14-6 record. They also putted their way to both the City and Conference Championships, making it the second straight year they captured the crowns. With one senior on the ’77 team, four out of this year’s five golfers will tee off again next year. Some of the victories the golfers landed were against teams such as Roosevelt, Horace Mann, and Emerson. Some of the losses we suffered were by Andrean, Calumet, and Wirt, who defeated us by a narrow margin of 186- 185. )|t 114 End With a 14-6 Season 1.

H5 Endurance, Determination, Sportsmanship; What makes a winner? Some say the winners are those who have the talent to do well in their fields ... others say the winners are those who strive the most to reach their goals. One of the things that made some Wallace Hornets winners is going the farthest, as in the case of Candace Corbin (track—long-jump). Another thing is going the fastest, as in the cases of Billy Hayes (track) and Virgil Strauss (swimming). And still one more is hitting the target, as in the cases of Joe Olah (tennis) and Laurie Pruitt (Girls’ Basketball). But put it all together, and you got a winner. 1. Bill Hayes-track. 2. Candace Corbin-track. 3. Virgil Strauss-swimming. 4. Laurie Pruitt—Girls Basketball. 5.

The purpose of the club was to further interest in the graphic arts and to be of service to the school and the community, and that’s exactly what was accomplished by its members this year. The club printed the Girls’ Club turnabout tickets and programs, and 1500 copies of a calendar that was sent all over the United States. They also printed calling cards, tickets, and stationery for many of the business functions held in the Gary area. To raise money for a computerized composing machine, the group sold iron-on transfers. 3. 1977 Officers: Mr. Joe Mrak. Paul Marks (Sgt. at Arms). Mike Coggins (VP). Stu Schultz (Pres).

Hi-Y members discuss the problem of lack of attendance at their dances. 144 Action? Dependability? Self-esteem? Tradition? Going ... Going ... Gone... Whether anyone knows it or not, student apathy is a major problem here at Lew Wallace. However, most students and teachers do not realize what is happening to school spirit and how it is affecting them as individuals. It seemes that everything is going downhill. Why aren’t students involving themselves with school activities anymore? When asked this question, Senior Jim Mladenik replied, “Today more kids work than ten years ago, and the general attitude of all students everywhere is apathetic unless the school has a state champion or very competitive teams.” On the other hand, many students today do not work, yet still don’t want anything to do with school after 3:30 dismissal bell rings. What do they do? They sit down in front of the boob tube and get turned on. Some parents are to blame for the attitudes and actions of their kids today. Many of them don’t care what the kids do, as long as they don’t bother them. As one club sponsor pointed out, one reason students don’t participate in club activities is because they don’t come to school. They become interested in sex, alcohol, and drugs too soon. The idea of good, clean fun is frowned upon. She also stated that staff members, administrators, and students can’t make time for each other. Everyone goes their own way. Students today seem to care only fl 111: about themselves and nobody else. It was also pointed out by a student that usually when kids quit taking part in club activities, it’s because their friends do also. If things are this bad now, what will Lew Wallace be like in five years? If something isn’t done to improve student-teacher-administrator relationships now, school will be the prison kids are talking about now. There will be no extra-curricular activities. A student also stated that many students say that staying after school is a waste of time-they have better things to do. Hi-Y had to cancel quite a few dances b ecause of lack of attendance. No one is left in the Booster Club. Since the auditorium was closed, the Drama Club has suffered greatly. This year there has been a great decline in attendance at Student Council and Girls’ Club meetings. The Inkpots and the Home Ec Club have folded because of lack of interest. The French Club also did not exist this year. Who supported the cheerleaders this year? How many students attended football and basketball games? What about wrestling matches, swim meets, baseball games, tennis matches, track meets, or volleyball games? The staffs of the Philosopher and the Quill and Blade really suffered this year. School newspaper sales averaged 250 sales an issue, and 675 yearbooks were sold to 2500 students!! It was pointed out by another = 6 teacher that if worse comes to worse, our school, like many other area s chools, will have to allow designated school time for club activities. Members of all clubs would meet during a so-called “activity period.” Some suggestions made by students concerning new projects for next year include having pep rallies for all sports participants (girls, too), starting a girls’ softball team, bringing back homecoming dances, class parties away from school, field trips through the school to concerts, a chemistry or physics club, and World Civ mini- courses. Freshman Steve Wisneski suggested starting a Polish Club for students of Polish background. When asked what could be done about student apathy at LW, Junior Trish Gourlay replied, “I don’t think there’s much we can do about the people who lack spirit. We’ve tried different things to improve it—now it’s really up to them.” (}xjuYdc £©uj ' n CClOUA£ nflry jl C0l£O c OUT 4 fc ' 7% 7u W C$ jOJlAo” m Q _3aXX ) % (t iaxJIcu ' 46 £)£frdfrl ciixrticSkj n ?r nJSTT) M7 §eiilor§ Senior Spirit Arises Senior year is one in which many things can happen. It excites you and makes you sad. Realizing this is the final year is something to look forward to. When looking back on the times it seems hard to believe it happened so fast. To work for years and accomplish the goal of graduating is something to be proud of. The spirit that exists brings the whole class together. We are thought of as one and share in the experiences of the year. The clubs, games, dances, meetings. and getting together after school. It is a rewarding and fulfilling year. Spirit Week is the time to show how much you appreciate your school and class. This year the senior class worked hard for weeks in preparation for the “Space Odyssey” theme. The result was overwhelming participation and great fun. The class was given the honor of being the most spirited and went on to win the spirit stick from vociferous underclassmen. Jubilant seniors cheer as they win the spirit stick.

Ordering announcements and taking pictures are handled during junior year and summer. When school begins schedule changes are made to ensure all credits are needed for graduation. Soon caps and gowns are ordered. Class meetings are held and fund raisers take place to boost the treasury. Toward the end of school is found to be the busiest. Plans are made for prom and students are given their last requirements. Seniors begin to make plans for their future and with help from counselors select colleges and trades. $ 154 Jacqueline Gibson Sherie Giethbrock Valerie Gipson Martha Gomez Catherine Gonzales Robert Gonzalez Patty Greco Darlene Green Patricia Gutierrez Kelly Hahn Sheila Hale Georgeann Halkias 155 Denise Hall James Harding Jeff Harness Sheila Harville Christine Hatton Marilyn Havens At the Inauguration ceremonies class officers are sworn in.

This spirit was made active by junior class president Theresa Wislo, vice-president Cedric Randle, secretary Rhonda Henning, and treasurer Ray Benjamin. The year continued in victory as the juniors won both the football and the basketball homecoming float competition with “Stabilize the Horsemen” and “Go-Fer the Ingots.” Projects which provided money and fun were a skating party, bake sales, car washes, and pennant sales. Most of this money financed the 1977 Prom. As the end of the year approached, the juniors found it hard to concentrate on their studies and even harder to keep from thinking about the summer and their senior year to come.

Getting licenses, and going out after the games kept them from worrying about school. At the inaguration, Kathy McDonald gave her speech and was sworn in along with Vice-Pres. Susie Corona, Secretary Cindy Wislo, and Treasurer Skipp Schultz. At Football Homecoming the Sophomores presented their float “Sit On It, Mann. They also won the Spirit Stick, showing their enthusiasm. At the Basketball Homecoming, they applauded the choice of Janet Vasquez as Homecoming Princess, and “Demolish the Ingots aptly provided the mini-float theme. During Spirit Week, with the theme “Sophomore Circus and their hall decorated like a Big Top, they sold candy to raise money. With vacation nearing, and the Seniors gone, the class of ’79 realized it was one short step to becoming Juniors and much- awaited upperclassmen.

The QB Staff wishes to thank Mr. George Kingsley Jr. for his encouragement and extra supplies as well as his patience with “unusual” ideas. Thanks also to Mr. John Giolas of Giolas Studio for loping around the city for all those extra pics; to photo teacher Mr. Dave Metz for advice and ideas; to the office staff who field phone calls and forward packages; and to the administration and faculty for putting up with our foibles. A special thanks also is deserved by Pat Lucas, our customer service rep. in Montgomery who solved prob¬ lems and eased our path. We also thank Bob and Lou at the plant for their explanations and ideas. A very special thanks to Miss Sarah Munier—our advisor and friend. The first signature of the 1977 Quill and Blade is printed on 100 lb. Bordeaux Stock, and the remainder on 80 lb. Ermine Special by Herff-Jones Yearbooks of Montgomery, Alabama. Opening and closing subheadlines are set in 18pt. Melior. Copy and captions are 10 and 8pt. Melior with Italics. The end sheet is printed in a special color mix ink on frost paper. The cover, title page, divisions, and other special spreads were hand set with Format Caslon Black Swash. The cover is a debossed design on Cerulean Blue Vibra Tex color material overtoned in black.

Helpers Cedric Randle Sue Hansom Essie Parker Advisor Miss Sarah Munier This year may be the last year that the Lew Wallace Quill and Blade will be published. QB staffers had a more diffi¬ cult time selling books this year than ever before. The staff, a few teachers, some patrons, advertisers and less than 700 students, seem to be the only ones interested in keeping this tradition alive. The 1977 Quill and Blade ended up with 256 pages rather than 272 pages along with less spot color than was previously used. The original cover design was modi¬ fied in order to save money. If more students don’t begin supporting the Quill and Blade soon, this book, the 1977 volume, may end the tradition of having an annually pub¬ lished yearbook at Lew Wallace. Dino Travlint 254 ■ ?
