‘Through The Looking Glass A Year To Look Back On Through the looking glass ... Stepping into a world of learning, responsibility, and good times. The halls of LHS are full of memories: all the homework you did (or didn't) do, cramming for exams, joking around with your friends and catching up ' on some sleep. During the summer you get used to going to Goshen and coming back with sun bleached hair and totally soaked. No sooner do you start to get a good tan and it’s the first day of school already. Most people are glad to get back to studying (yeah, right!) and seeing all their friends again. Homecoming is there before you know it. This year there was some pretty fierce competition for the crown of the Queen. In the end Jennifer Goodyear won. Home- coming was a bit different this year be- cause one contender wanted to taste the victory of being the Homecoming Queen. Michael Van Ness. ‘‘A guy for Homecoming Queen?!’ Sure! Why not? Mike looked up the rules and found that there was nothing keeping him from going for it. He went at it full force but in the end he lost to Jennifer. He took it like a man and was not upset be- cause he wasn’t Queen. This year the foot- ball team drove the fans crazy as our Coach Dennis Vaught brought us many victories. Basketball bounced off to a great start, a definite change from last year. Basketball is the American sport and out team kept up the great tradition by running over the other teams. Being motherly, Janice Fritchman points out the length of Freddie Harrington's hair. No, it's not the Jacksons, but it is Tyler Turner, Tyrone Turner, and Mike Cooper, relaxing in the hall during the Homecoming dance. Opening 5

A dim spot this year was that the Gym- nastics team didn’t work out. Our athletic department decided not to have a team be- cause there were no other schools in the single A division; also we could not get in- surance or a qualified coach. It was too bad we didn’t have a team after last year’s Suc- cess. The tennis team had an awesome year, showing new style, new form and most of all, Skill. This was a year in which we were saddened over the departure of Mr. Reynolds our principal, but we have gotten to know the new principal, Mrs. Tillery and have found a worthy replacement for Mr. Reynolds. These are the years that will remain with us forever. They are the door to our pasts as well as the key to our future. We must remember this year for the class of 88 is going ‘‘Through the Looking Glass” into a totally different life: The Real World... — Nathan Heatley — Brad Householder Mom, where did the shower curtains go? In their bright robes French lll and IV students dress up for a project on Africa. 6 Opening Is there a doctor in the house? Jason Whitaker, Freddie Harrington, and Jay Crook joke around in Advanced Biology.
