At least we dressed- up, decorated the halls, and had a parade. The big, bad seniors, whose theme was “The Seniors Big Adven¬ ture, had dressed-up like Pee Wee Herman ' s and even managed to win the Spirit Stick. Senior Gerry Gray said, It ' s About Time the seniors stood up and took the throne. The juniors weren ' t as lucky though: they had their Bum Day nixed by Asst. Principal William Reese and wore red t-shirts and jeans instead. Some of the sophomores man¬ aged to dress in Mix and Match, and freshman were suppose to look like straight out of the 50 ' s. Walking down the halls and seeing all the decorations makes me proud to be a Hornet, said fresh¬ man Tia Nance. “I really like the posters in the sophomore hall, said LaSonia Levy, sophomore. And, evidently, the judges did too which was why they won first place.

HOMECOMING-5 HOT GUESS NUMBERS. Juniors Jerome Mock and Elise Garner wear two of their favorite Guess line tops. rom London punk to New I York chic and ivy league preppie to Western ca¬ sual, fashion zigzagged its way across the U.S.A. Leading the pack of fash¬ ion designers was GUESS, com¬ ing out with an entire line of hot and high priced items, like watches, jeans and sweats. The soft drink industry, too, branched out and captured a share of the lucrative youth market with Coca-cola and Pepsi sportswear. Eighty-seven saw gold and silver rise not only on Wall Street, but in the fashion mark¬ etplace as well. Metallic belts, shoes and purses were grabbed up by anew genera¬ tion of trend setters. Casual Western wear still hung around though. Tassels were in on jackets, jeans and boots. Fitness and fashion made for a cozy twosome. Kids rom¬ ped around in colorful jogging outfits and dashed to classes in Reeboks. Fila and Nikes. Mousse me! Gel me! Color me wild! Hairstyles screamed with an array of brand new hair care products. The ' ' bob ' ' was back, with a distinctive 80 ' s up¬ date. loose curls and waves and oversized brushes. The bottom line for those bitten by the fashion bug was that everyone still walked around doing his own thing. □ written by Seretha Wil¬ liams 8-FASHIONS Pictured at top left. CHILLIN’ N CA SUALS.

The unemployment scene for a majority of Gary teens was staggering 50 plus percent. In general, the job market in Gary looked anemic. Large num¬ bers of jobs simply weren ' t there anymore. Too many businesses had either moved out of town or those still here had already cut back on workers. Boarded-up and gutted build¬ ings were a depressing fact of life facing too many Gary teenagers. More and more complained that there seemed little to look forward to. I ' ve been out looking for a job for many weeks, but they ' re ver y hard to find in Gary, protested An¬ thony Felton, junior. “I finally found one, in East Chicago though. But I don ' t like it very much. Another factor in Gary ' s unem¬ ployment problem was that many teenagers don ' t know how to go about getting a job properly or didn ' t know where to go to find one. And that ' s where the Feds stepped in to help, through the fed¬ erally funded Manpower Program. This past summer, more LW stu¬ dents were able to look forward to finding a job through the Northwest Indiana Job Placement Program, funded by the county ' s Manpower Program, than ever before. I am presently involved in the Manpower Job Placement Pro¬ gram, said Bernard Taylor, junior. Its goal is to provide 30 hours of pre-job training for 244 Gary stu¬ dents and myself during the sum¬ mer. After we complete our train¬ ing, the employers who hire us are given the incentive of our working for them, but having our salaries paid by Manpower. And I think that ' s a good deal for both of us. Indiana University Northwest had become involved in the youth employment issue also. Working with the Manpower people, key University officials had begun what is called a Career Beginnings Pro¬ gram, whereby 120 Gary juniors were targeted and accepted intd a six week summer program de¬ signed for those students with high¬ er post-high school aspirations, at either a college or technical school level. Some of lUN ' s Career Begin¬ nings highlights included a mentor program whereby professionals were tapped to work as technical advisors to the 120 and then con¬ tinued to work with a select 100 during their senior years. Its job sites were carefully screened, and IUN made sure they were of a high quailty so as to broaden and to inspire students to further their education and training as well. IUN participants was paid $3.35 per hour for seven hours a day, five days a week, for six weeks. In addi¬ tion to offering an assessment pro¬ gram and job assignments, IUN asked participants to take part in University enrichment activities on its campus every week. Other youth oriented employ¬ ment programs were just on the ho¬ rizon for Gary teenagers. Some city officials seemed to have gotten the message loud and clear Gary ' s teens need jobs! Those with vision were now acknowledg¬ ing the wisdom and perhaps the linkage to their own jobs in the fu¬ ture. Subrena Ashford, senior, was one of the fortunate few who did have a job. I feel that my job is a wonderful experience because it teaches me responsibility an d of¬ fers me rewards that my parents can ' t get for me, said Subrena. Now, with my job, I can get them for myself. □reported by DiMonique Jones and perspective by Jass. AT LEFT.

Many here said the City of Gary was broke and a lot of young people were packing up and leaving for more promising digs. With jobs so few, being unem¬ ployed has seriously affected me be- ause I can no longer buy the things I ant, complained Tina Mclntee, se- ior. And when parents and teens |ame down with cases of the crunch, hool organizations eventually felt the ch, too, and started running on pty. The economic pox seemed every¬ where at once. Student attendance at sporting events was anemic. Sock hops, after school dances and affairs were canceled, one after another. Even School City came down with the cheaps.

Staff members seemed to be working harder at trying to sell books, but the only thing that was building up was the red ink. Debt or no debt, declared Janet Sefton, Journalism II teacher and year¬ book adviser, our fundraisers had to be put on the back burners because we ' d made a solemn promise to this year ' s seniors to get out the book on time this time. There was still some hope though and even some success stories. Band, for example, proved an exception to the times. Prom sponsor Bettye Eichelberger confided, The Junior Olympics were pretty successful and a fun way to get the monies we needed for the prom. Nevertheless, the bottom line stayed the same: making money was serious business. □written by Mia DeLoach RUNNING ON 12 FUNDRAISERS RACING AROUND ON a three wheeler is still tun.

Quill Blade: What will you remember most about this year? Robert Richmond: “The time I put a firecracker in Jimmy Dixes ' locker.” Sonja Jones: “When we beat Veit the day before my birthday, Romy said, ‘Here ' s your present. ' ” Alfonso Rodriquez: “I box¬ ed against Former Middle Weight Champ Tony Zale ' s grandson, Jeff Smith, and won.” Quill Blade: What was your most embarrassing moment? Anthony Martinez: “When I fell out of the elevator in front of Mr. Christoff.” Donald Ferguson: “When I was a freshman and sat in the wrong class for half an hour before I knew it.” 14 SENIORS QUIZZED Mary Strope: “When I went into the boys ' washroom, ' cause there was no sign on the door.” i —i Keith Mott: ‘ ' When Coach Templin played a video¬ tape of me giving Delroy Bridgeman the ' high five ' and falling flat on my face.” Raquel Washington: “When I threw my retainer in the garbage and had to dig deep for the dumb thing.” Anthony Jefferson: “When I slipped and rolled down the surge ramp and every¬ one laughed. □quiz by Lydia Hodges SENIORS QUIZZED-15 Best news, best players, best dressed, best haircut, best car — best of ' 87!

Best dressed students were those motf n the know, and those who had the most dough. They came to school in just about everything from Coca-Cola to Banana Republic. High status carried big price tags too. Below, Junior Mia DeLoach models her Guess. Best Teen Haircut? For the girls, it was the bob cut. For the young men, the ’ ' fade was popular.

Playing parts of favorite characters was a gas and resurrected Old Willi again. Seniors in Janet Sefton ' s En¬ glish IV classes thought they ' d en¬ joy a Medieval Christmas so they tied their study of Macbeth to that of the holiday and came up with Christmas at the Castle. Everyone in Sefton ' s English classes received an invite. Mac¬ beth and Lady Macbeth were to be the host and hostess. King Duncan, his sons Malcolm and Do- naldbain, Banquo and Macduff were all invited. Senior Sean Johnson who had come as a monk even stitched his own cos¬ tume. Some uninvited guests who had sneaked past the palace guards into the Mead Hall had come, also — the likes of three witches, Hecate, and an execu- laying parts of favorite characters was a gas and resurrected ’Old Willie’ again.” tioner. All came dressed for the occasion. Said senior Dana Carter, I wanted to come as a Viking. Caroline Jackson, senior, dressed as Lady Macbeth, laughed, My crown kept falling off. Senior Marcia Mister confid- ed, Well, I had this witch hat at home so .... As soon as everyone was seated according to rank, the banquet began. Lord and Lady Macbeth gave the yuletide toast. The castle ' s serfs carried trays of ladden fare from the cas-l tie kitchen and served the guests on tables decorated with ever¬ green boughs and candlelight. Even “Old Willie himself was there to read the Ye Olde Wills, ' ' as carolers sang in the back¬ ground. When the class period end! ed, reluctantly, so did the ban¬ quet.

Call it what you might — to those closest to the nagging sore, the LW year¬ book was on its last leg and had had it, pure and simple. The dogs of doom had caught wind of the final bloodlet¬ ting and were hot for the kill. To outsiders, the yearbook ' s plagu¬ ing problems were sloughed off as just another late book. But to those in the know, the death of the journalism program had become a waiting game and simply a matter of time. Despite the sometimes inge¬ nious bandaids and heroic efforts of many of the staffers, in the end nothing made much difference. Bluntly put, there were too many holes in the dike to plug and no one had really cared enough or done enough — neither the high- COLD AND Station doesn ' t spoil the staffers.

I was as one of the chosen ones that had been selected for a program entitled Presidential Classroom, by my counselor William Meyer Traveling by plane to D.C. was fun. My companion was Ro¬ chelle Brown, a senior at West Side. From a total of 430 upper grade students participating from throughout the U.S.A. we were the only two from Gary. On our first day out, we could not help but want to take in the famous sights, like the White House tour and Capitol Hill. Then there were the Supreme Court Building, the Washington Monu¬ ment, Arlington, Georgetown, and the Smithsonian. Back on The Hill, influential people strolled in and out of our daily seminars - like U.S. Attorney Robert Merkle, Journalist Susan King, and His Excellency Moha¬ mad Kamal, the Jordanian am¬ bassador. These high raking persons spoke to us about arms control. disarmament, and defense strat¬ egies. In our Crossfire Meetings, we asked questions like how far should our government go in ne¬ gotiating for the release of Amer¬ ican hostages? And should abor¬ tion remain legalized? At the end of ever busy days and nights, I received a diploma, a pendant, and a group picture. That week in D.C. will always stay in my memory. □ written by Lydia Hodges King Convo Inspires Keeps dream alive hank God Al¬ mighty, we ' re free at last! Hundreds of stu¬ dents gathered in West Side ' s auditorium in memory of the late Dr. Martin Luther King. Kicking-off the convo, the LW Brass Quintet played the National Anthem.

It was Malises ' way of renewing old acquaintances and of showing her concern for unemployed steel workers. She related that her own father had been one of those steel¬ men many years ago. During the play, she recalled youthful memories of her father working at USS, now USX. At 9:00 sharp every evening, he would promptly come out of his bedroom fully dressed for work, she remem¬ bered. And I would feel so proud of him, Malises ' voice softened. The play itself was unusual. It consisted of testimonial vinuettes by former workers. One day, despite all of our faithful years of service to USS, they came to us and told us the mills were closing. Many eyes in the audience filled with tears. As a student at LW, Malis had been a Varsity Cheerleader, Editor- In-Chief of the Quill Blade, Presi¬ dent of the Girls Club, and a mem¬ ber of the Drama Club. After grad¬ uating from Indiana University, Malis landed a number of television jobs, including the role of Dorian Lord on One Life to Live and more re¬ cently, a role in an episode of Our House. □ written by Tracey Hall HISTORY -23 Eichelbarger wins Inland’s ‘Teacher of Year’ THRILLED, PROM QUEEN Torin Morris, se¬ nior, is given a congratulatory hug by Prom Sponsor Bettye Eichelberger, business teacher, as Dorothy Williams, a chaperone, holds Torin ' s bouquet of roses.

Gary ' s Career Center gives LW upperclassmen an opportunity to learn that trade while still in high school, giving them an edge on the job market after graduation. Vocational students say that the Career Center has both its good and bad sides. On the plus side, senior Monique Jeffries, a cosmetology student, said, One thing I like about going to the Ca¬ reer Center is that you get out of school early. Another good thing about the Career Center is that I meet a lot of people from other schools, said Charles Barnes, senior electronics student. On the down side, senior An¬ nette Nokovic, an accounting student, confided, I think the Career Center ' s boring and there ' s nothing to do a lot of times. Most Career Center students really work hard, however, and some even make Student of the Month.

The inner city back¬ grounds of many of the students had been the big challenge for most of them. “I wish, however, that my class sizes were smaller, sighed a weary Phelps, because stu¬ dent disciplinary problems were a real headache and required much time and energy.

This was the second time that M esich had gotten LW per¬ sonnel interested and involved in one of her many humanitarian projects. Both she and her LW suppor¬ ters had labored unselfishly to send more than two thousand Christmas cards to our military personnel overseas, some in re¬ mote areas of the world, others on board ships, and still others at U.S. Embassies in places like Ger¬ many, China, Ecuador, Liberia, Oklahoma, Alaska, and the Phil¬ ippines. LW teachers and friends, like Tersa Cecil, Maxine Ciminillo, Jul¬ ia Colby, Glorya Cotten, Karen Danko, Pauline Gerbick, Karen Ingram, Dorothy Johson, Dorthy Kouvelas, Madeline Lovette, Caorl Puchowski, Nancy Walls, Clara Williams, Mary Bradford, Nancy Piazza all had become keen over Mesich ' s Christmas Project. They, too, had seen the great need and had offered their helping hands. When the immense job of mailing two thousand greeting cards overseas was completed, return mail from all over began to flow in letters from Americans who were grateful that someone here had taken the time to re¬ member them. In the end, it really was a small world after all as proven by a letter from one Capt. Don¬ ald Bullard whose father had once taught at Lew Wallace. Holding Bullard ' s letter in her hands, a weary Charlotte Mesich slowly looked up and smiled. It was worth it, she said. □ reported Preston Lewis and Angela Thorton NUMBER ONE BOOSTER Charlotte Mesich, security person, hobnobs with Michelle Benton, senior, on Black and Gold Day, Unofficial LW p-r person and long time pil¬ lar of the school.

Charles Lawson, who had previously taught at Tolleston Mid¬ dle School, came to LW with new ideas and a new sound. I felt the LW Band was ripe for a change. We ' ve instituted the drum corps style of marching and playing that has now placed us in the main¬ stream, he said. One of Lawson ' s goals was to acquire new uniforms for the band. Our new uniforms reflect not only our corps style of playing and marching, but they are indicative of new pride and uniqueness. The students have worked hard to proj¬ ect their image. Now LW is the home of the nationally ac¬ claimed Hornet Regiment. Anthony Lampley, senior, said, Since the Hornet Regiment was formed in the Fall of 1986, we ' ve come a long way. We be¬ gan with pre-school practices and ended by placing second in the nation in Class AA at the Mid¬ American National Band Compe¬ tition in St. Louis. ' Maestro,” as Lawson is af¬ fectionately called, added that the band has performed thirty- seven times including the Mexi¬ can Independence Day Parade in Chicago, the McDonald ' s Charity Parade, the Gary March¬ ing Jamboree, and the National Band Competition in St. Louis. We also have had students in¬ ducted into the All-American Band Hall of Fame, and a re¬ cord number of fundraisers, said Lawson proudly. Being invited to national contests in Orlando, San Anto¬ nio, Nashville, Philadelphia, and Toronto were big highs for all of us, said Yolanda Johnson, se¬ nior. And St. Louis was a real trip, she laughed. Lawson smiled wearily, Running a championship band is a lot of hard work, dedica¬ tion, time, and expense. □ written by Eric Johnson THE HORNET REGT MENT’S brass section fills cheerless halls with Christmas music COMMANDER DAR¬ LING HENDERSON, se¬ nior, recruits BalHy stu- KSjWX _ 30 BAND Amahl opera, a first 7 his Christmas pro¬ duction was dif¬ ferent.

HEADE: Why do you think that he chose you, in particular, to receive the award? MASOODI: Maybe due to the considerable volunteer work I do with handicapped children and adults. HEADE: Have you found this kind of effort rewarding? MASOODI: Yes, I ' ve found the work rewarding, especially when I see students I ' ve taught do something important with their lives. Some have even made it to the college level, you know. HEADE: By the way of back¬ ground info, can you tell us some¬ thing about yourself? MASOODI: Well, I was born and raised in India.

And when LW ended up with a 7-3 victory, well, that wasn ' t too bad either. The first Killer Bee sting came against Bloom Trail, wi th a smashing 34-12. The second was against Bishop Noll, 14-7, as the awesome defense — consisting of David Fow¬ ler, Leon Brumfield, Deron Robin¬ son, Delroy Bridgeman, Marcel Webb, Orlando Hunter, Michael Zanders, David Lee, and Lovell Stewart — knocked around Warrior Rusty Setzer and company like a bunch of meatballs. The West Side Cougars were next on the Hornet hit list, but too bad — the Killer Bees were really geared-up for this one, 28-12. Though the Roosevelt Panthers managed to hold the Hornet rush on its first offensive drive, the Killer Bees swooped down for another 26-8 kill, turning the Panthers into a bunch of pussycats. That West Side game really sticks out in my mind, said Fowler, senior fullback. Maybe because I played pretty good both ways. The West Side game was a stand out for Zanders, too, who with his quick feet and hands, was 3 and 3 in passes completed. The Hornets easily dumped the Troopers 18-12 and thought the Horace Mann game would be a shoo-in. But no way! With missed blocking and six fumbles, the Bees ran out of buzz, 12-14. Too many turnovers also turned the Hornets in their ill-fated play against the 59 ' ers, losing on Andrean turf, 8-0. Sectional play and another win against Veit, 20-6, gave the Hor¬ nets a shot again, only to have their bubble burst, losing to the Highland Trojans, 18-20. In a final footnote, Fowler com¬ mented, Win or lose, this tearr had it more together than Iasi year ' s. They were more talentec and had better senior leadership. □written by Anthony Feltor 1986-1987 VARSITY FOOTBALL Front Row: M. Zanders, O. Hunter, M. Webb, M. Maxwell, C. Grand, M. Nelson. L.

They had super star Jerome Harmon, senior, and a supporting cast of three more McDonald ' s All- American athletes in Anthony Palm, Cedric Cusic, and Preston Lewis, seniors. From the start, the team knew it had a special mixture of old and new. Returning from last year ' s squad were seniors Tim Baker, Sylvester Gunn, Julius Williams, and Sean Morris. The new was a talented group of underclassmen led by juniors Author Dillard and Alfred Stubbs; sophomores Byron Wilson and Jam- ar Jones; and freshman Carlos Paul. The cagers had beat their rival Gary Roosevelt in their first meet¬ ing, 71-57, but had lost to the Pan¬ thers in the Holiday Tourney The season later skidded to an abrupt halt with another loss to Veit in the Sectionals, 52-54. Asked his opinion of the disap¬ pointing season, Morris said, The season was good even though we lost the Sectionals. Then he added sadly, This team had the potential to go all the way. We were more like a family than just a team be¬ cause we had grown up together I ' m really going to miss everyone, ' The season ' s end also hoc marked the end of the original High Steppers. □ written by Preston Lewis AT BOTTOM LEFT, Anthony Palm, senior, rur the set-up against Andrean.

When she was just seven, Harrises ' brother Rodney taught her how to play basketball. And she ' s been a real basketball nut ever since. Nowadays, she ' s considered one of the top female basketball players in the region, along with some of her other outstanding team mates. Standing 5-feet 9, the flashy guard has been sought by schools like Louisville and Georgia. “I came to LW from Roose¬ velt, said Harris, and I still have friends there. But, I like LW bet¬ ter. Comparing coaches from both schools, Harris said, ‘‘Coach Horton from Veit differs from Coach McKissack in many ways, from how he runs his practices to how he conditions his players. I like Coach McKissack ' s style bet¬ ter I think. Playing regular season bas¬ ketball competition, Harris asserts she likes to give 110 percent all the time.

teaching worthwhile again, asserted E. Ann Ramsey, assist, di¬ rector of personnel for School City and head of the Gary Career De¬ velopment Program. Ramsey ' s thinking had mirrored that of the think tank at the State Department of Education in Indian¬ apolis. The idea was one of culti¬ vating and upgrading teacher pro¬ ficiency in hopes that some of the pay dirt would rub off on improved student achievement. After all, student excellence was still the name of the game, one that ultimately was transferable into power dollars. And everybody About fifty Gary teachers were selected for the noble ex¬ periment at Deep River and were trained that first summer in ' 88. When fall returned once more, the new teacher mentors were as¬ signed to brand new teachers, those who were considered teach¬ ing interns and those who were new to the Gary system. The teacher linkages were to endure for at least a year. At LW teachers Ruben Alexan¬ der, Jim O’Connell, Janet Sefton, later on Sherrie Gardner and Stan¬ ley Keller, were those mentors se¬ lected in the first wave. New science teacher Dave Kings, who had previously worked for the U.S. Dept, of Forrestry before joining the LW staff, had been pair¬ ed with Alexander. needed, but it had proven work¬ able. True there were holes, but so what? It would continue and it would be expanded to interface with Gary ' s Career Development Program. The program had definitely im¬ pacted positively on a deteriorat¬ ing educational battlefield — both local and state movers, were hap¬ py, Ann Ramsey was happy, most of the mentors and mentees were happy. Even school principals and some students seemed to be smil¬ ing more. But maybe the mentors went home smiling more than the rest, maybe because this time their ide¬ alistic volunteerism had fattened their wallets materialistically by was interested. Both Alexander and Kings were $900 that first year. The country itself was in a re- pleased with the progress of their written by jass form mood, still reeling from a solid new collegial relationship. Rub- wallop to its educational liberalism e( y s friendliness and professional and still tight lipped at being put expertise really helped me over the down like a Yahoo has been. rough spots, said Kings.

TWO CRITICAL THINKING Skills members from LW who received training at the Beckman Teacher Center were Mario Dongu, history, and Janet Sefton, En¬ glish. Training in critical thinking was a part of a pilot project of the Gary Ca¬ reer Development Program. Career Development debuts Plan trains, rewards Teachers o matter how you looked at it, the bottom line was in dollar signs. The research had been in for some time. The need was critical. All that remained was a viable plan. The basic thrust of the Gary Career Development Program would be that of more training for more pay. Monetary carrots would range somewhere from $500 to $2,500 in pay increases, in incentive job options, and in state sweetners. Teachers would be train¬ ed in the state of the art educa¬ tional methodology, trained by specially trained colleagues, trained to examine the effec¬ tiveness of their own teaching styles, trained to upgrade their teaching strategies. Different than the updatable evaluations of merit pay, “training would be the keystone from which all good things would come. Gory ' s Career Development Program would, in fact, offer four training levels, each with its own built-in incremental incentives. For starters. Level I would be the entry point for the brand new state mandated teaching in¬ terns and for experienced teachers new to the Gary schools. Mentor teachers, another new teacher role, would be se¬ lected and trained to help teacher colleagues vis-O-vis over the rough spots of the first years. The mentor-intern relationships would constitute an unprece¬ dented inductive rite into the professional world of education, one that had been sorely need¬ ed for some time. Gary ' s Program, brainchild of one E. Ann Ramsey, asst, direc¬ tor of personnel for School City, had been seeded by a Career Ladder Feasibility Study in 1987 and was no fly-by-nite flash-in- the-pan, but an inspired, stud¬ ied, and carefully planned de¬ sign for educational reform, di¬ rected by Ramsey herself. A Career Ladder Steering committee, in conjunction with an empowering AFT approval, and notable thrust of Sandra Irons, AFT president, in particu¬ lar, had worked long and hard on the development of the program. LW teacher Janet Sefton, who had been a steering com¬ mittee member since its incep¬ tion, had come to city-wide at¬ tention by way of Gov. Robert Orr’s A+ Program and State Coordinator Gerald Stuckey ' s Teacher Quality Committee. Sefton, also, had had experi¬ ence as a state grant reader and had played a role in the ini¬ tial grant funding for the Gary program. Being a committee mem¬ ber has greatly expanded my own professional horizons. The frip to Marin County, in San Francisco, was highly stimulat¬ ing, enlightening, and meant much to me. Also, I ' ve been a proponent of educational improvement for many years. This was my opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a greaf adventure and enterprise one that will impact hopefully, edu¬ cational reform in this country. Change is a necessary fact of life, and this one will be for the betterment of both Gary teachers and our youth. □ perspective by jass. _ ¥ left to become head of Ivy Tech, in £ ' 87. ASST. SUPT.

Outside, a steady line of luxury ve¬ hicles: Porsches, Mercedes, and limos, pulled-up to the entrances. A singular horse-drawn carriage clopped its way up the drive and stopped. Heads turned and starred at the quaint driver and the lovely young woman, dressed in black, beside him. Low and mellow music from the Billy Foster quintet spilled onto the foyer in¬ side . Near the receiving table, adjoining stairs led to the ballroom above. Immediately, one ' s eyes beheld a buffet table covered with tiered flow¬ ers, hor d ' oerves. a champagne foun¬ tain, and other delectable sights. Pink and blue melted into everywhere. Gossip and small talk readily passed in and out of small, friendly linen tables, with roses. Would they all go to Rush Street afterwards or to the Pin¬ nacle Restaurant? Until four or five? The king and queen would be crowned. LaMar Stroder and Torin Mor¬ ris. Then there was the Grand March too. Midst Always and Forever,” the fine young couples nuzzled and danced to their very own special histo¬ ries and flowed ouf of the double French doors forever.

Grad Sabrina Lowery receives roses and ac¬ colades from family members Last Days Bitter-sweet eelings had grown muddled during those final days. The end l Pseemed somehow bitter¬ sweet. Across the upper balcony and down the gymnasium stairs, the gradu¬ ation cadence continued as the Hor¬ net Regiment, led by Charles Lawson, played the traditional Pomp and Cir¬ cumstance,’’ until the last senior was in place. Row after row, dressed in their shiny black and gold robes and mortar¬ boards, the graduating seniors waited for Annette McBride to begin the Invo¬ cation. Primped and proper, they sat to¬ gether for the last time as the program flickered before them: voices and in¬ struments performing Triumphant and “We The People ; the Rev. Robert Lowery, the Baccalaurate Address. Salutatorian Isham Bennett spoke of Flashbacks in Time” and valedicto¬ rian Cynthia Torres, Visions of the Fu¬ ture. Principal Christ Christoff arose and presented the class to those who had come for their sakes — mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, relatives and friends. When their names were finally called, they grasped their diplomas in their hands and tossed their hats into the air clasping each other for the very last time.
