As time goes on and people grow and change, they go through many cycles, and at the termination of each phase is a signal to venture out and begin a new part of your life. With this venturing one is bound to see and learn new things. It is a time of culti- vating new interests, exploring fresh areas and gathering information. It is a never ending process. What makes life so exciting is the thought that we'll never quit growing and maturing, because each day brings something new to be overcome. Growing Is. . . 3 (Growing ils... When you consider all that goes on in your life, growing is not something to be taken lightly. There are so many aspects of growing that it would be almost impossible to name them all, for it is a process of progress, matur- ing and changing. It is a time of developing yourself — discovering how you've matured and not just sitting back and saying that's nice, but putting it into use and being a better person for it; and while you are developing your emotional equilib- rium you are also starting to build an extension of yourself because along with all the other growing that is going on, there is a part of you that is extending into many new and exciting areas. Here is the beginning of our Rembrandts, Edisons and Dickens. But when extending ourselves into new and exciting areas, one does not have to branch out into a permanent line of work. One can just develop his interests into simple things that bring pleasure, for life is filled with so many “have to do's” that it is nice to fine something to release tensions. Often when life gets too hectic another marvelous thing about grow- ing makes an appearance: the delight- ful reoccurance of those childish antics. One is never too old to be a child at heart. It is always so good to be able to throw down your guard and be carefree, to let down your hair. There are also many other things that are included with growing. The times and happiness shared with all the friends and family are priceless. implying ©urarlurfi Ever stop and wonder how you got to be who you are today — not just physically because you are always con- scious of that but emotionally and intellectually. Just taking a silly old holiday like Halloween, I can see so many different zany phases I went through; like when I was six or seven, I remember my first Halloween in school, making my pumpkins and corn shocks and the witches on broom sticks — but that was only half of it. At home Mom was getting the candy ready and putting up my pictures, but my main concern was getting my costume ready and picturing all the treats I would be get- ting beggar's night. Unfortunately that childlike pleas- ure wouldn't last forever. Suddenly I became a teenager, and all the rules were changed. My whole peer group considered themselves grown-up”, and trick or treating was no longer a thing to do. It was just for little kids: babies. The only problem was that I regretted having this pleasure taken from me because deep down I would never outgrow Halloween even though I was now a big teenager and would have to consider it silly just like every other one of my peers. As time went on and I chalked up a couple more years of experience, I really did start to mature, and sud- denly it dawned on me that no matter what my age, if I enjoyed something like Halloween I should go out and get involved. The things I do might have changed from trick or treat, but I still would be doing what I wanted — not acting grown up. I was just being myself and enjoying every minute of it. 4 Halloween 1.

Halloween 5 Art Dept. 7 lined with your own creations, each a separate piece of the puzzle-like maze composing you. Art helps one learn to be honest about one's own feeling — with one’s self and the world — in that when you create, a piece of your- self is given to the creation and there it remains — undeniable — for you and the world to see, understand, and learn from. Each individual discovered his or her own medium for self-expression — for some, a piece of clay laying damp and lifeless before them acted as a catalyst to begin an outpouring of themselves flowing into that still lump of earth which previously had meant nothing to anyone but, at the conclu- sion of this flurry, is as much a part of them as their right arm. For others, having a charcoal pencil in their hand and a wonderfully blank sheet of paper in front of them — utensils with which to bring into being all the fantastic creatures peopling their minds, to give life to their varied hopes and dreams, no matter how outlandish or unseemly they may be — is the proper condi- tions to nurture and cause to grow that urge to create that lies dormant within all of us just waiting to be given a shove to grow. Still others found a brush and easel with pastels or oils were the perfect means of bringing into view the hobgoblins roaming inside their heads, peeking around corners, peering down corridors, sneaking stealthily from passage to passage, trying to find an escape route leading out of the inner dark- ness where tney subsist into the bril- liant, abounding beauty of the outside world. The medium itself actually mat- ters little — the important thing is to be comfortable with whatever you choose to work with. All this emotion that was instilled into each piece of art produced in the overcrowded, close, yet homey art room overcomes the drabness of the room itself and converts it into a sort of Eden, full of beauty and comfort, with new and different bits of marvel- ous fantasy to see at every turn. It’s a wondrous world to itself, set aside from the rest of the building by a bar- rier of joy in self-expression and dis- covery — and a definite asset to our system.

Each of the var- ied paintings, posters, sculptures, and hangings al out the room seemed to have its own private life: its own mes- sage to give to the world, just waiting for someone to come along and listen. Madge Wright and her art students all seem to be vibrant people — brim- ming with a love of lire, allowing the overflow to be mingled with their works. They used their creative abili- ties to express their innermost thoughts and emotions some of which they themselves had been unaware existed within them. Art can help one to discover one’s own self — to see into your own soul through a corridor Iranrijinij ©ut Like the wide and far reaching branches of a tree, such are the hob bies of the students at LHS. These people as they have grown have devel- oped certain likes and dislikes. Special interests become evident as time goes on and personal pastimes come into existence. Sue Cordle, a sophomore, has found that painting and drawing are worth- while projects, and since seventh grade, she has been developing her talents. She says it still amazes her when she finishes a drawing or paint- ing and sees what she has accom- plished. Her father has even been encouraging her to go to college and major in art. Robin Johnson, a senior, is into woodworking, and he got his start through his father, who is a carpenter. Rob has not totally relied on others; he has learned some of the tricks of the trade on his own, and the fruits of his labor are numerous. He has made such things as lamps and desk organ- izers. He is presently working on a gun cabinet. He plans to become an indus- trial arts teacher. One thing to remember is that hob- bies aren’t just things to do with your hands. Jim Hartley, a sophomore, spends a lot of time talking on his C.B. He said that there has been a C.B. in the Hartley household all his life, but in the last three years he has been using his own equipment. Another popular hobby involves building models. Rodney McComery, a senior at Tri-County, was introduced to models by his brother-in-law, who gave him a couple. Rodney said he enjoyed them so much that he started working on his own. He basically likes car models and said he has worked on everything from Model T’s to semi trucks. Unfortunately, some hobbies are seasonal. When summer finally comes, Jim Walker, a junior, gets out his fishing pole and heads for a good spot to throw in his line. Jim said he usually goes in the early morning or later in the evening when the fish are feeding. Jim has landed bass, blue gill, catfish and trout, but he preferred bass because they were more chal- lenging. Like each of these individuals, most students of LHS enjoy a hobby which adds another branch to their already budding character. 8 Hobbies 1. There are more to models than just assembly as Rodney McGomery shows. 2. The music on and the paints ready, Ginny Mingus enjoys the day. 3. A little more polishing and Rob John- son will be finished. 4. Writing or reading it, Lori Williams finds poetry fascinating. 5. Jim Hartley, alias Jungle Jim, feels quite at home with a mike in his hand. 6. Engrossed in her work. Sue Cordle qui etty labors. 7. Writing songs is one of the interesting facets of Jerri Lee Lehman’s life. Hobbies 9 10 Childish Antics (fib iEmiugl) to a (EtjUii As we age we gain the worldliness we looked for as children, we tend to lose the happy, carefree nature young, inexperienced people seem to have. This loss is a definite cause for grief to us, as knowledge and maturity seem to come hand in hand with woes and worries. A sad condition, yes; but one that appears inevitable. Fortunately, it only appears that way, as many of our students proved with their child-like antics and activi- ties throughout the year. For instance, when fall came, although we fought to restrain that urge within us to run screaming through the yard and jump into a pile of leaves, or fall from the barn rafters into a stack of hay, almost invariably the battle was lost and all adult formalities were thrown aside for a brief moment of youthful ecstacy. Winter’s wondrous whiteness and dazzling brightness spurred the con struction of snow forts and those mar velous creatures known as snowmen As we became engrossed in the fan tasy world of moldable whiteness sleds were drug out and no one seemed to care at all what others thought of their seemingly childish and uncultured actions. Ice skating and snowball fights, no matter how often we fell or were splattered with a well-aimed missile, became favorite pastimes. By the time spring came, we had such a build-up of energy from the confinement of winter's heavy clothes and short days, that even as the buds of the first crocuses burst forth, so we exploded with an urgency and excite- ment typical of a gleeful child turned loose on a world full of wonders and awesome happenings; joining in the Easter egg hunts and running bare- foot. Of course, summer brought the end of school which always causes an immediate jubilation to rise among the student body and staff alike. Water fights, baseball, and swimming were suddenly in style. This return to our younger days of joyous fun was much enjoyed, and no shame was felt over losing the sup- posed dignity and sophistication per- sons of our ages are expected to have. A little childishness helped relieve the pressures we must bear in day-to-day life, and was a switch from the monot- ony of adulthood. 7 Childish Antics 11 TOP LEFT: Coaches Boynton and Smith discuss the game plan with quarterback, Scott Gasser.

The ceiling was so low that you could touch it, but we had to make do with what we had. Such were the remarks of a Logan High School graduate as he reminisced of his athletic days at LHS. All available records indicate that the athletic program at LHS began in 1909. At that time, football, bas- ketball, and baseball were the only sports offered. The games were played very primitively compared to standards of today. According to Mr. Barton Holl, a 1909 graduate of LHS, In football the only pads that you were given were the ones that were sewn into your pants. If we wanted shoulder pads, we had to make them ourselves. No one could afford to buy them at that time. There were no helmets either. If you had a good head of hair, you were a lineman, if not, you were in the backfield. Basketball had a rough beginning at LHS. Besides practicing in the basement of the old high school, their games were played on the sec- ond floor of the building where H S Firestone is today. Unlike today, there were no time-outs. The clock ran continuously throughout the game. With this, and the fact that the ball was jumped for after each goal, one can see why the scores were so low. The 1909 basketball team had the privilege of playing McArthur, the state champions of that year. The game was played in the McArthur gymnasium. In one cor- ner of the court stood an old pot- bellied stove. This presented quite an obstacle to the teams playing, so they did the only obvious thing; they built a chicken wire frame around the stove. Even this did not help the Chieftains, as they lost, 60 3. Basketball was discontinued in 1919 because there were not enough young men to make a team after the war enlistment. It was not reinstated in Logan's athletic pro gram until the 1924-25 school year. The track program was added to Logan's sports activities in approxi- mately 1912. Track was cancelled in the early 1930’s because of the Depression. It was not reinstated 14 Sports Feature until 1956. It then took only two years to rebuild our track team to one of the best in Southeastern Ohio. The Southeastern Ohio Athletic League was formed in 1925 with Logan being admitted to it that same year. Little changed in Logan's athletic program for quite some time. Then in the 60’s and 70’s a nationwide trend hit Logan — girls' sports. Girls who had previously been play- ing such sports as badminton intra- murally were now competing at basketball and track in league play! The athletic program at Logan is still growing. Tennis which was played at LHS in the 20's was renewed. Wrestling and girls' vol- leyball were also added to Logan's athletic program. The newest sport to be offered at LHS is gymnastics. This event, made popular by the attention it received in the Olympics, is in its first year at Logan. TOP: Sophomore linkster, Dave Vaughn drives another fine shot to the green.

Sports Feature 15 Across the Country Logan's cross country team expe- rienced a disheartening year with a record of 1-13. One of the reasons for Logan’s unsuccessful season could be the lack of people willing to give the time and effort needed to excel in cross country. Anyone can be a cross country runner if that person is willing to give up the time this sport requires. Practice consists of running up to eight miles a day in relays. Summer programs usually require the mem- ber to run up to 800 miles a day during the summer. This is then used as a requirement to be on the cross country team in the fall. Running is not a sport in which many people enjoy, but it is very rewarding. By maintaining your determination and increasing your time each meet, you will eventually experience success. Within the past few years, young girls as well as women have become interested in cross country running. This sport also allows women to be on a equal footing physically with men due to the requirements, determination, and the desire to run. Logan's runners increased their times every meet, but still faced defeat at the finish line. Our course is 2.3 miles long and one of the toughest courses in the league. Determining the winning team is done by adding to the placements of the runners, and the team with the lowest score is the victor. Crossing the finish line first demands keeping up a steady pace according to the junior cross coun- try runner, Kelly Helber. Kelly also believes cross country is the most strenuous of all sports. Coach White hopes to improve Logan's cross country team by encouraging more people to try out for the team and hopefully is get- ting up a summer program in the future. Support from the students might help increase our team’s chances of winning and could possibly open a whole new athletic event to many people who might find it as enter- taining as going to a football game.

Girls’ tennis is finally getting rec- ognized in our school. Since it started here in 1975, there has never been more attention put on the game. The team has grown from last year’s seven to this year's twelve. The girls feel there isn't enough emphasis being put on their team. If the team is to increase in popularity, we must get more stu- dent participation. “We need peo- ple's support as spectators just as we need more people for the team.” One of the major reasons there aren’t many tennis matches is because not enough schools offer girls' teams to compete with us. According to our athletic director, Mr. Stilwell, if at least three more schools obtain girls’ tennis, our team will be considered in the All- Sports T rophy! Coach Bridgewater is pleased with the team's progress. She said the team has improved, but they still need work on their concentra- tion and conditioning. Coach Bridgewater said she has really enjoyed working with the girls and hopes they will improve their record even more next year. The girls are satisfied with this year's record because it is better than last year's, and that was their goal! The team feels they must work on their strategy and confi- dence. The girls definitely do not want the boys' and girls' teams together! The girls feel the two teams aren't equal. According to the team one needs a lot of patience and concentration to be a good player. They say they practice on the average of fifteen hours a week. ‘‘Practice only interferes with our soap operas!” says the team, laughing. In playing tennis most of the expense comes in on equipment. As far as the players are concerned, Spalding, Head and Wilson make the best equipment. These talented young ladies intend to make tennis a life-long hobby rather than a profession. Any girl who wishes to be on the team must be at least a freshman. FRONT ROW: Julie Bell, Denise Cullison, Jamie Heinlein, Nancy Fox, Beth St. Clair. ROW TWO: Jamie Mara.

Sports 17 ( r Golf is a popular sport, and most members of this year's golf team have played golf for two or more years. This year’s team has also survived the additional challenge of having a female participating on an equal basis. Our team is unique in this respect since it had the only female to actively participate in the Southeastern Ohio League. Golf in Logan High School is a wonderful thing. It enables the players to work out all of their built- up frustrations when they get to “beat the heck out of that poor lit- A Quiet Sport tie white ball. In this problem-filled world there is probably no greater place to refresh one's mind and renew one's thoughts than in the quietness and serenity of the Hocking Hills Golf Course. The walking and pleasure of being in a country-like atmos- phere adds to one's physical endur- ance and allows a golfer to develop a sense of security within himself that will last through more trying times. The competitiveness of one-on- one competition with no one to assume the responsibility for an individual builds strength and char acter. Participants learn to com- pete in a sportsman like manner that requires personal integrity which will allow them to survive challenges to be met in the years to come. Those who have chosen to pursue the game of golf have ensured themselves a hobby that can be pursued right through the twilight years of life. FRONT ROW: John Britton, Dave Vaughn.

This | unforgettable game was high lighted by a three touchdown, 113 , yard effort by Kemper and a 10i yard achievement by his running mate, Emerson plus some real sticky defense lead by Mike P01 ing, Mike Powers, and Mark Rolan. This was also a game high lighted by excellent offensive line play since no team could have two men rushing for more than IOC yards unless their team mates up front were doing a super job Some of these remarkable player included Mark Cullison, Rob John son. Jack Klump, Sam Taulbet and Carl Price. Victory numbe- two sure was sweet. The purple and white found lit tie difficulty outclassing an out manned Nelsonville York footbai team. The Chiefs rolled up 434 yards while our sticky defense only allowed the Buckeyes 86 yards. This was the game wher Gasser's arm came to life with beautiful passes to his favorite receivers. Gasser completed 7 11 The Legend of '77 The Legend of '77 started much earlier than one would expect a regular football sea son to start. This was when a group of very talented young men, who had been a part of a fine team that went 7-3 in 1976 and shared the Southeastern Ohio League Cham pionship with the Ironton Tigers decided to dedicate their lives, develop the mental toughness, and pay the price essential to meet the challenge of a perfect season. In order for a team to achieve these heights they must have great leadership. This they had in the form of Mark Armstrong, Scott Gasser, Marty Hallett, John Kemper, Alan McKinley, Brad Tucker, and don't forget the strong staff made up of Chuck Kemper; Doug Nelson; Don Richardson; Greg Smith; Trainer, Bob Platt; and Head Coach, Bob Boynton. This team also had such qualities as love and respect for each other, their coaches, the school, the administration, and, yes, even the fans. No group of young men could have better represented these characteristics than the 1977 football team. The first victory of the season is memora ble for many reasons. Not only did Coach Boynton get his first victory of the year, but with that victory Logan ended the domi nance of New Lex over the Chieftains and in the process handed the Panthers their first season opening loss in the past six years. Who could ever forget that outstanding 58 yard touchdown run by Dave Emerson to score the opening touchdown of the '77 sea son, or that super charge by Jack Klump to recover the fumbled snap of a punt attempt just before the half that gave Logan the cushion they needed and put them up 14 0 at the half, or that first rate kick of a 45 yard field goal by Jeff Lee Smith, who had been so consistent over the past three years. Although not as spectacular, Kemper's three yard run for the touchdown was a start of a super effort that would carry John into the position of the all time Logan Chieftain scor- ing leader. And here they had it, victory number one. On the night of Sept. 17, the Chieftains continued their victory march through the ‘77 season with a hard fought 21-6 victory passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns Also a long lasting tradition started when the fourth quarter began and the spirit and excitement showed as every fan in the sta dium raised four fingers in symbolic tribute to the team that really turned it on in the fourth quarter and gave it all they had. Vic tory number three belonged to the Chief tains, 54 0. The Chiefs opened defense of their share of the SEOAL crown with a convincing nearly error less display of championship football Gasser continued his personal attack of all the records by hitting 8 14 passes for 176 yards and a touchdown. The defense again only allowed the Wellston Rockets to reach the Logan 43 yard line. Hurray! The Chiefs won victory number four, number one in the SEOAL. Trailing 14-13 with less than four minutes to go, the Logan Chieftains proved to one and all that they were a team of destiny when they drove 57 yards for the winning touchdown. Highlighted by one of the great est plays of this or any season when Gasser went back and hit Armstrong with a 12 yard strike on the fourth down that meant the dif ference between victory and defeat to a group of athletes that were born winners, there were other plays on this night of vie 20 Sports tory number five. No one who saw the game will ever forget big Duke Dalton's stretching high in the air to knock down a sure three points and the sight of the Logan cheering section coming to life as McKinley scooped the blocked field goal attempt and raced unmolested into the Logan end zone for a sweet six points. Victory number five in the SEOAL, after many years of being intimi- dated by the Ironton Tigers, was oh so sweet In a night of big plays that featured three touchdown passes that swarmed all over the Jackson Ironmen going away 52-12, no game was probably more highlighted by defense. McKinley recorded 19 tackles, Rolan 13, and Tucker recorded 12. Gasser continued his drive on all passing records with an 8 13 passing night and 144 yards. John Kemper proved this night he could also throw the ball when he completed a 35 yard option pass to Armstrong for a touchdown. Victory number six was in the bag, victory number three in the SEOAL. The following week the Chiefs finally received the state recognition that they deserved when they were named for the first time in history as one of the 10 best teams in the state. Logan remained perfect by beating Wav erly 42-0. Kemper gained 132 yards. Emer son added 62 yards in 10 carries, and Tucker proved that he could run as well as block with 51 yards on just four carries. Gasser continued his pursuit of the records with 6 9 passes for 114 yards. The Logan defense continued to play stick'em football. Victory number seven belonged to the purple and white, victory number four in the SEOL. No one had to ask who we were playing the following week, for the cries vibrating through the halls were BEAT Athens. The Athens Bulldogs came into Logan with a per feet record in the SEOAL, not having allowed an opponent to cross their goal line in the past 15 quarters. Gasser made quick work of that record as he repeatedly riddled the Bull dog's secondary with strike after strike. When the smoke had settled, Gasser had hurled four touchdown passes. The stingy Logan defense again played super football keeping the Bulldogs in check until the out come was well-assured. Victory number eight was well deserved, number five in the SEOAL. The Chieftains, with an opportunity to clinch at least a share of the league crown, played spiritless for nearly a half before capi- talizing on the two Meig's errors near the end of the second quarter for a 14-0 lead. No game was probably more determined by the defense. The defense was simply terrific. Victory number nine, number six in the SEOAL, a share of the crown belonged to the Chiefs. A happy group of Chieftains celebrated victory number 10. The clear title to the SEOAL crown assured state ranking and a perfect 10-0 record. The dedication that started way back who knows when was never more evident than during the second half when Logan methodically both offensively and defensively destroyed the Gallipolis Blue Devils' hopes of a major upset by burying them 35-6. The team of destiny filled with character, poise, and talent, had left its mark on the history of the little community nestled in the Hocking Hills. Victory number 10 was oh so-sweet, number seven in the SEOAL was wrapped up. ABOVE: Marty Hallett, eyes a defender as he caught a pass for yardage.

Sports 23 Spikers Bump Through Season Although this year has been coined by many as The Year of the Chieftain, it was not however the best year for the girls' volleyball team. The lady spikers were expected to have a successful sea- son in 1977 with an experienced team and some exceptional ath- letes, but as the season progressed, it was evident that it was not going to be a good year. We lacked teamwork. You need to work together as a team to win,” and we just didn’t have a winning atti- tude” were some of the reasons the girls gave for their disappointing record. The game of volleyball is usually played on a court with six partici- pants on each of two twelve-man teams. To win a game, a team must score 15 points and be ahead by at least two points. Although this year was somewhat disheartening, the girls are already looking forward to a fantastic sea- son next year. We are only losing one girl, so we will have an experi- enced squad.

The seemingly plain Central School Gymnasium is converted into a world filled with mats, bars, and beams. If you are fortunate enough to view this spectacle, you will be amazed at the sight of graceful, tal- ented bodies, striving to perfect handsprings, leaps, and cartwheels. This, of course, is the multi-tal- ented girls' gymnastics team. This first year team is showing signs of a promising future. The time and effort that these young girls devote to the sport is astounding. According to their coach, Mrs. Boynton, for a girl to master the art of gymnastics, she must have strength, balance, and flexibility. The team spends approx- imately ten hours per week practic- ing. After countless hours of practice, the gymnasts are ready for a meet. A meet is a place where every girl does her required routine and pos- sibly an optional before a panel of two judges per event. The events performed at a meet are the floor exercises, the uneven bars, the bal- ance beam and the vault. Each girl usually has one piece of equipment she prefers, but she is free to use all equipment. Mrs. Boynton will choose which class each girl com- petes in. Most of the gymnasts are partici- pating in the sport for the condi- tioning of their bodies rather than trying to make it a profession. This, however, does not subtract from their driving goal for a successful and productive season. The girls' gymnastics team is open to all girls in their freshman through senior years. If all goes well, gymnastics should be around a long time. So good luck to the new and talented team for your for- mation makes LHS athletics bigger and better than ever.

This relatively new sport has grown tremendously since it began here four years ago. One of the fallacies associated with wres- tling is that it is the same as one would see on television. This, according to head coach, Doug Nel- son, just isn't true. He said there is a significant difference between the two. In fact, people have been known to become instantly hooked at their first match. Wrestling is a game that every- one can compete in. That's one of the many merits wrestling has. There are thirteen different classes of competition ranging from 98 to 300 pound weight class. Anyone, freshman through senior, that wishes to join the team is assured of at least three matches in compe- tition. These advantages help to enable any team member to become a star grappler. This can give some people up to four years on the team. Even the time factor is great. Practice consumes only one and a half hours a night at the maxi- mum. Coach Nelson is naturally pleased and satisfied with the team's performance, but he stated, “The team needs more self confi- dence.” The major goal of the coach and team is to obtain at least 40 members.

Sports 27 Chief+ainet+es Stand Tall Amidst all the publicity and rec- ognition the boys' football and bas- ketball teams received for their much deserved championship sta- tus, it seems that the highly suc- cessful girls’ basketball teams got unjustifiably ignored. Both the varsity and reserve squads had fantastic seasons with equally impressive records. The varsity roundballers finished with a highly respectable third place, and the reserve gals captured the 1977- 78 SEOAL reserve championship laurels. Coach Barb Boley’s varsity squad just kept getting better throughout the season, bouncing back to beat teams that had previously defeated them in first round play. Such was the case when the Chieftainettes took to the court on a cold Tuesday night to challenge the highly touted Waverly Tiger ettes. The Tiger- ettes led at all three whistle-stops, but the never-say-die effort that has brought Logan teams the sweet smell of victory so many times before prevailed again in the fourth quarter. Logan was down by three points with less than two minutes to play, but a shot made good by Cindy Jamison, and a spectacular steal and lay-up by Becky Kuhn put Logan up by a single point. Two free throws by Jamison increased the lead to three. Waverly fought back to within one, but it wasn't enough as the elated Chieftainettes won 45-44. It was, without a doubt, the best game of the season. The reserve roundballers were a complete surprise to everyone. In her first year as an LHS coach, Debra Bridgewater led her champi- onship team to a 7-6 record. Attain- ing that record was no easy task. The Chieftainettes faced some pretty stiff competition throughout the season. Take for example the Ironton Game where the gals held off a fourth quarter Tiger-ette onslaught to win by a single point and Gallipolis where the girls fought through three overtimes only to lose a heartbreaking 31-29 decision. The losses were few and far between for both teams, and they deserve a hearty congratulation for their contribution to the athletic program at LHS, in this, The Year of the Chieftain. 28 Sports BOTTOM ROW: Sheryl Hawk, Cindy Beery, Tina Thompson, Theresa Albert, Patty Rider, Melody Fuller, Lynn Wisecarver.

We Are the Champions When the ’77-’78 basketball team opened the season with a dis- appointing loss to the Hilliard Wild- cats, little did the fans realize the winning streak they had ahead of them. For the next games the spunky, hard-working, and talented athletes proved themselves with victories that were well deserved. Last year’s team, which ended with a 16-4 record, had established the pattern for first-rate winning basketball. I'm sure that this team, having continued in that winning pattern, will have contributed to the continuing success of Logan High School basketball. The coaching staff, headed by Coach of the Year, Scott Fitzgerald and assisted by Mark Shaw, received more than able assistance from reserve coach. Chuck Kemper, and assistant Don Richardson. This fine group of young coaches, work- ing as a single unit, was largely responsible for a super team record. There were many games which highlighted the season, but there was one game in particular which practically every student will remember. As the Chiefs proudly paraded onto the floor for warm- ups, there was a definite air of excitement present. The cheering section was fantastic. They sup- ported the team throughout the whole game yelling at the top of their lungs. This was also the game when the w-o-o-o-s-h tradition started. Every time Logan would come to the foul line every fan would raise his fist, and when the foul shot was made he would rap- idly thrust his arm down in a w-o-o- o-s-h-manner. This was the game Logan had to win in order to estab- lish themselves as a threat to the Southeastern Ohio League crown and the physical Tigers were given a dose of their own medicine. As is customary with a group of winners, we took charge early and domi- nated the game throughout. In a battle of the SEOAL unbeat- ens, the Logan Chieftains, using an aggressive defense and a super night by Dave Lehman, proved to one and all that they deserved to be ranked number one in the SEOAL league with a stunning victory over the Waverly Tigers. The Chiefs pointed all year to the second Waverly game knowing full- well that the final decision was to be determined by this game. The decision was never in doubt, and the “Fighting Chieftains,” with an aggressive defense rebounding like demons and a controlled offense that paid a high premium for shoot- ing selection, gunned down the Waverly Tigers, who had been favored to win the SEOAL. Victory was oh-so-sweet. SEOAL crown, number three in a row, belonged to the Chieftains. Athletic success, whether it be on the diamond, hardwood, or grid- iron in any school must receive the support from the total community, from the school administration down to the lowest fan. No school probably has more going for it in this respect than Logan High School. Heavy support comes from the administration, particularly the athletic director, Kelly Stilwell, who has blended together a group of first-class coaches who are not only willing to work together but even sincerely like and support each other . . . proof of the pudding is this third consecutive SEOAL league championship. 30 Sports UPPER LEFT: John Kemper, the recipient of the Most Assists Award, battles his way through the Ironton Tiger defenders.

Sports 33 Netters Swing Hard 34 Sports Tennis is a sport that requires concentration as well as physical ability. One must be in good ath- letic condition, to be capable of executing swift, well-planned moves. To successfully master ten- nis the mind and body must be functioning with exact precision. Tennis requires ability derived from a lot of other sports. The speed acquired from track, the grace gained through gymnastics, the physical endurance achieved from football and the pinpoint accuracy needed in baseball, all combine to mold a superior player. Coach Chuck Kemper has high hopes for a league championship season. Kemper feels that a lot of the players have all of the qualifica tions and are showing it. People who wish to participate on the Netters” team must be at least a freshman. Girls are permit- ted on the team even though a girls’ tennis team is in existence. One final qualification we must not forget is determination. Deter- mination plays a very important role in anything you do, and the tennis team most definitely has determination.

La There are many different events | but our girls track team only has a few. Some of the events we partici- 'V pate in are the meter runs, broad jumps, high jump, shot put and dis- cus throw. The term meter runs is self- explanatory. The girls must run a certain number of yards in the shor- test possible time. The broad jump is a jump for distances. The con- testant runs down a narrow path so that she touches the take-off board with her leaping foot while running at top speed. She lands in a spe- cially designed soft pit. In the high jump, the jumper runs toward the crossbar from any direction at any speed, so as to propel herself over the bar by rolling the body and land- ing on a mat. For the shot put the girls hold the shot against their necks or shoulders. The girl springs forward from her rear leg and at the same time straightens her body. For this event good coordination is required. In the discus throw, the thrower must remain in an eight foot circle. She must hold the dis- cus near her finger tips and close to her side. She is permitted to spin for momentum before the throw. There are many more events, and we're very hopeful for expansion. Just remember the next time you hear the word track, think of more than just running. ABOVE: Sophomore Jennifer Bell demon- strafing the proper approach for the broad jump.

Track proved to be a popular sport this year at LHS with 25 young men on the team. Many of the athletes who participated in fall and winter sports such as basket- ball and football go out for track as an incentive to stay in shape during the off season. Others go out for it because of the individual recogni- tion one receives as opposed to team sports. A track team member has many choices of events in which to excel. A strong yet not-so-fast person might choose to participate in events such as the shot put or dis- cus throw, while a faster person may choose the running events. The 1977 edition of the LHS track squad underwenta rebuilding process this year. The team, coached by Don Richardson, com piled a 7-7 record over the year. In the SEOAL league meet, they placed fourth, and in the sectional meet placed sixth. Senior Marty Hallett earned the right to go to the district meet, where he placed fifth in the 440-yard dash. The team is looking forward to next year with hopes of a champi- onship season. OPP, PAGE TOP: Brian Glaze. BOTTOM: Junior, Dan Crawford. THIS PAGE TOP: Marty Hallett and oppo nents.

Just take a look at any empty lot or ball field during the summer months, and there's sure to be a game in progress. However, this is the first year for girls' soft- ball at LHS and in the Southeastern Ohio Athletic League. For its first year, the team faired quite well, finishing the season with a record. As is the case with most first-year teams, the team did not concentrate on their record as much as they did on learning the fundamentals of the game. In doing so, coach Debra Bridgewater found many outstanding individuals, and utilized their talents during the sea- son. Junior Becki Kuhn who was the teams lead-off batter, used her abil- ity to get on base and into scoring position to win many games for the Chieftainettes. She led the team in scoring and stolen bases. Kathy Nye, who had a tremendous eye for hitting the ball, led the team in RBI’s and batting average. Another first for the SEOAL was the selection of the all league teams for softball. Logan’s team made a fine showing, placing five individuals on the various teams. And so another sport is added to the evergrowing athletic program here at LHS making it bigger and better than ever. 40 Sports FRONT ROW: Debbie Grim, Pam Sigler, Sheryl Gabriel, Marisa Trucco, Carol But- trick, Jenny Cassady, Carol Donahue, Laura Davis.

Well for some the memories returned in the months of February and March as Logan Senior High students were sent home with signs of the measles. The measles going around were the three day measles, or rubella. The signs were swelling and tenderness in the lower head and neck region, with a touch of a fever and, of course, the spots starting from the face and going down the rest of the body. Mrs. Jean McFadden, school nurse, stated that the reason for the outbreak was that when we as youngsters received a vac- cination what we were given was later proven not to be effective for life. Those who received a vaccination after 1969 had nothing to fear because by then they had improved the vaccine. There had been other diseases going around, such as mumps and strep throat.

Study hall is an experience that almost every student goes through at least once in his school life. Study hall traditionally has been a place set up so students can have a place to study when they don’t have a class scheduled, but the atmosphere has been the subject of concern this year. Should a student be allowed to sleep? Should a stu- dent be required to have a book open? Which radio station should be played? These were a few of the hassles. We asked some seniors how study hall could better benefit students. When asked, one student said that a better radio station could be chosen, referring to the instrumen- tal music that was being played. Music was added with the help of the Student Council and a poll taken in high school homerooms. Another student remarked that study hall could be divided into two sections. One sec- tion would be for those who wanted to study and another area would be for those who wanted to talk or sleep. This would have to be brought up before the school administra- tion, but with the lack of space it is not very probable that this idea will come into being. Other suggestions that were made con- cerned smaller study halls and honor study halls.

When the buses pull out and the dust clears, seniors can be seen trudging down Market Street on their way to work. Three of these seniors are Valerie Wolfe, Jackie Lehman, and Belinda Byers. Jackie Lehman who works at Risch’s Drug Store, thinks her work is really fun. She says her work doesn't really interfere with her school work because her working hours are arranged so that she gets off early. Also, she works only sixteen hours a week. Valerie Wolfe, on the other hand, works about thirty hours a week at Keith’s Guys and Gals. She says that she really enjoys her work. Valerie especially enjoys waiting on and meeting people. Guys and Gals provides a perfect atmosphere for enjoying the dif- ferent personalities of the customers. Val- erie also feels that her work is a learning experience, and she would encourage other people to work during high school. Belinda says I have learned a lot about people and just things in general that will help me out as I go on in life.” Although Belinda doesn't plan to make a career of working at Yankee Burger, she still enjoys her job. She especially enjoys the people she works with. As can be seen by these three examples it is possible to work and go to school at the same time.

The senior has found himself in a position that makes him totally dependent on his education. He has arrived at a point where he must decide whether he will continue his education or pursue another direction in his life. Either way, education will be the determining factor in his future failure or success. The question is: can Logan High School provide a worthwhile, meaningful education for its students? Marsha Ellinger believes Logan High School has provided her with a very exciting education. Julie Walsh said, “It has all been great.” Although Logan High School is an old high school, it is very well staffed and equip- ped with a great deal of up-to-date material. The knowledge of the age of the high school has provided us with an incentive to over- come that handicap. The incentive has indeed paid off because the 1978 seniors are eagerly awaiting the chance to exercise their educational experience.

Reflections Think . . . Reflect. . . Reminisce. Relating past experiences and influences to your pres- ent and future life is a great way to learn about you. Who are you? What do you want out of life? How have past happenings affected you? Usually as you reflect on your high school days, one main thing stands out in your mind, one thing that has molded you most. This spe- cial feeling about something or someone var- ies greatly with each individual. Six seniors were asked the question, “What has had the most impact on your life during your high school years, and how has it made you grow? Answers ranged from special classes and activities as in Marsha Ellinger's case to the personal religious feeling of become a Chris- tian as in Mark Guda's experience. Concerning choir, Marsha's reply was, “It made me able to get up in front of people.” Mark answered by saying, The greatest thing was being saved.” Special people always leave a big mark on our lives, especially those who guide and teach us. Belinda Byers is one senior whose experi- ences with people have helped her. This was evident when she replied, “I guess my teach- ers have made the biggest impression on me.” Friends or people with whom we spend the most time have a great influence on the kind of people we become. One person who finds this very true is Carol Buttrick, who said, My friends have left a big influence on me.” Stop and think . . . reflect. If you were asked this same question what would your answer be? Seniors 71 Kelly Lehman; Kelly Sept 14. Blue What can I say. Mark Lehman Susan E. Light March 20. Blue Fear knocked at the door.

The Senior's outlook on life is one of an optimistic nature. As Teena Smith said, Life is for enjoying, and enjoying is for life. This feeling of optimism is beneficial to class morale and spirit. Even the teachers notice a high moral in the '78 super seniors. Miss DeFields said, “I have noticed a tremendous amount of class spirit and togetherness. As the world around us closes in, we real- ize we must become productive members of society. This leads us to the question of what career to pursue. Some have become set for a particular career, others are unde- cided. Susie Davis has chosen to reform the world. John Campbell said he would like to be an accountant. Brad Tucker said he would like to enter the business world. Although careers are an important part of life, there are still more important parts. When I asked seniors of their outlook on life, again I found a very optimistic response. Cindy Tom said, “I think life is beautiful. The '78 super seniors are renowned for their expertise at living life to its fullest.” As we turn off the light and pull the shades, as our dreams slowly fade, we qui- etly whisper to all who listen. “The '78 super seniors are coming, so look out and make way.

Ever since one can remember, he has heard himself saying at least once, I wish I were a senior, or Seniors have the most fun. Whether it’s true or not that seniors have more fun than anyone else in school is debata- ble, but it seems that being a senior does bring a sort of social status along with it. In some clubs and organizations seniors have the honor of holding major offices, and in athlet- ics, seniors have the honor of being the cap- tains and the leaders. But what’s it all about? What does being a senior really mean? Several seniors were asked the question “What does being a senior mean to you?” Their answers varied from “Living it up the last year,” by Jamie Mara; to a time to decide what you are going to do with your future, as Lisa Moore said. Marty Hallet said that being a senior to him was a beginning and an end. It is the begin- ning of having to fare for ourselves. We will now have to get a job or start preparing for col- lege, but most important it means an end to all high school athletics, clubs and dances.” Ginny Mingus thought that being a senior was a little sad because it was the last year to spend with friends though it was a time of hap- piness also. Some though that being seniors brought many responsibilities. Jim Beery said that to him being a senior meant being an example to the younger classes and being a leader. Though all had a different ideas on what they thought being a senior meant, they all seemed to agree that being a senior is a fan- tastic thing! 82 Seniors Bill Smith Jeff Smith Ed Sorrow Joe Souders Seniors 83 Daniel Stevens David Stilwell Pat Summers; Pooh Bear July 24; Midnight Blue Mailbox!'' ndy Smith Daniel Stevens MaDonna Schmeltzer David Stilwell Pat Summers Jenny Thornton William Tolbert Sam Taulbee Jeff Thomas Theresa Thomas Aug 29;Purplo Jenny Thornton Rhonda Lynne Thrush Ok 4, Pink Hoavom William Tolbert; Bill June 23; Blu« Bo yoursotl. and you'll go far.

But didn’t it hurt you or your parent's pocketbook with all those expenses? It seemed, like everybody, we had to pay for a lot of lab fees, Newsweeks and lockers. The first big thing we had to pay for was our senior pictures, they ran from $70.00 up. Then in November we paid $6.00 for our caps and gowns. After that came the announcements and accessories. The prices for our announce- ments ran from $25.00 up. Then came all the little things, like buying that formal or renting that tux for the prom. And, of course, the $10.00 plus extra expen- ses to get to Kings Island and back. Over all, the average LHS senior this year was worth about $400.00.

In this hour they have quite a few things they may do. They can go to the game room where there are snacks for sale, go to the cafeteria to eat lunch, play foose-ball in the DECA room or sit on the benches provided for them in the halls. How lucky can you be? Logan students have only 20 minutes of free time with only one place to go — the lunch room. Tri-County students have no complaints at all. They enjoy their free time and use it wisely. As far as most Logan students are concerned, they don't really have free time at all! UPPER RIGHT: Mr. Lorubbio explains to students.

Tri-County 95 TRI-COUNTY Boarding a bus between 5:30 and 7:20 A.M., a Tri-County Joint Vocational stu- dent's day has just begun. After arriving at Logan High School before seven- thirty, most students board another bus bound for Tri-County. Some students attend a class the first two mods of school at Logan before ridina a late bus which departs at 8:16 for Tri-County. The first class begins at 8:45. A lab three hours in length, pertaining to their chosen vocational program, is the first class for approximately half the stu- dents. The other students begin with a forty-five minute class of English (jun- iors), a forty-five minute class of govern ment (seniors), or an hour and a half of class related to their vocational program. The students who have their related class and an English or government class during the morning periods eat lunch during the first forty-five minute lunch period beginning at 11:30. The students who have three hours of lab in the morn- ing eat lunch during the second forty-five minute lunch period. After eating lunch the students may go to the smoking area to smoke, to the DECA room to play foose ball or buy snacks and other prod- ucts, or they can relax and socialize with their friends before their next class. The schedule of classes for the students is reversed after lunch. The students are dismissed from school at 2:45. They then board a bus going to Logan High School where they wait until 4:18 to ride the Junior High School bus home. The students arrive at their homes anywhere from 4:25 until 6:30. Some Tri-County students spend twelve to thirteen hours a day away from home riding and waiting on buses with only five hours and fifteen minutes of actual class time and forty-five minutes for lunch. This is the one big disadvan tage of attending the Tri-County Joint Vocational School. UPPER RIGHT: Mark McDaniel working on an engine in Auto Body class.

Tri-County 97 JUNIOR CLASS Being a junior in high school can be a very trying period in your life as the junior class officers for this year would have been quite eager to testify. Not only did the juniors have the annual Senior Banquet to fund, but they were also responsible for raising money for the Junior- Senior Prom. The combined costs were exhor- bitant, but ambition and determination were strong; goaded on by Junior Class President Ken Kreig; Vice President Paul Shaw; Secre- tary Cathy Miller; and Treasurer Kim May, the class members met the challenge. Early in the year Mrs. Carolyn Johnston and Mr. Joe DelCiello, class co-advisors, called the eager Junior Class together to start planning money-making ventures. A “Ways and Means Committee” was formed to arrange the vari- ous dances and the sale of Powder Puff tick- ets. As the year progressed, it was obvious that the enthusiasm and spirit of this class would afford them ease in their endeavors to provide the Seniors with the best banquet and prom ever experienced at LHS. The success they experienced was shared and enjoyed by the entire student body, prov- ing to be a morale booster of incomparable value. Thanks Juniors!

Juniors 101 Nervousness begins to set in and thoughts such as “I hope I have enough time to finish” and “I hope I score well” race through minds of students tak- ing the PSAT NMSQT. The Pre- liminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT) was given to inter- ested, college bound juniors on Tuesday, Oct. 18. The test was administered by Mr. Dennis Sav- age, guidance counselor, in the LHS library. The PSAT is a nation-wide test which is patterned after the SAT (required by many colleges before admission). The SAT is taken by college bound seniors, and the results are submitted to colleges directly by the College Entrance Examination Board which develops and administers the SAT. The SAT and PSAT test the student’s basic reading and mathmatical skills. The PSAT has two parts, a verbal section composed of 65 ques- tions and a mathematical sec- tion composed of 50 questions. The PSAT NMSQT is an objec- tive test which tests your ability to reason with facts rather than to recall and recite them. This type of test can't be studied for in a short amount of time, but the academic abilities measured by the test are developed over a period of years. The best thing that a student who is going to take the test can do to prepare for the PSAT NMSQT is to do the practice tests in the student bulletin which he or she will receive. Mr. Dennis Savage stated that the PSAT NMSQT is a good preparation for the SAT. He recommends that any student planning to take the SAT should take the PSAT before his or her senior year. Any sophomore or junior interested in the PSAT NMSQT should contact a guid- ance counselor at the beginning of the school year and inquire about the test date for that year.

Language Lab is a place designed to aide the stu- dents with French and Spanish. Language Lab monitor, Mrs. Lynn Cummins, prepared the tapes, recorders and earphones, for student usage. When asked about their feel- ings about lab, many replied that it was a waste of time and that they would rather sit in study hall. Not only were there tapes to listen to, but the French and Spanish students also had work- books to aide them with the lan- guages. With the help and cooperation of the students, the Language Lab can be improved to suit our needs. UPPER RIGHT: Junior girls hamming it up. MIDDLE RIGHT: Max Nihiser busy at work.

We had many responsibilities, such as making money for the Junior-Senior prom, and were expected to accept these responsibilities. The teachers and administration also expected more mature behavior from us since we were juniors. This was also a time in our lives when we were expected to look ahead to the future. We had to ask ourselves what we were going to do with our lives after graduation, whether we were going to attend college or tech- nical school, get married, get a job, or just travel and take it easy for awhile. We lived up to these expecta- tions and accepted the responsi- bilities. We made a lot of money and worked hard to provide the seniors with the best prom ever in the history of LHS. We began to ponder our futures and make important decisions. We suc- ceeded extremely well in sports, band, and academics. We were proud to say that we attended Logan High School. We will always remember our junior year in high school as a time of learn- ing, trying, and most importantly succeeding. Ken Kreig UPPER LEFT: Congregating in the hall.

Juniors 113 Choir gels it TOGETHER Ensemble, Melodious Institution, and Hilltop Singers might be unfamiliar to you unless you belong to or are familiar with the Logan High School Choir. Unknownto many is the fact that the choir is divided into these different groups There are two select ensembles which give concerts at different churches in the community, the Melodious Institu tion which is an all girls' group and the Hilltop Sing ers which also performs for churches and commu nity groups Choir members put a lot of time into their work Choir is a class five days a week, and there is prac tice after school. The Melodious Institution meets two hours a week while the Hilltop Singers practice three to four hours a week. The students not only put a lot of time into increasing their singing abilities but they also spend approximately a hundred and fifty hours during the year making props and costumes for the Christmas program and the spring musical. Although the choir devotes so much time and work to special projects, there still is the problem of not enough support by the students. These prob lems don’t seem to bother the thirty-nine students and their instructor, Mr. Sluyter. Because the choir is a very dedicated group, we, the Aerial Staff, salute the choir for outstanding work at Logan High School. FRONT ROW M Mathias, N Yates, J. Myers, J Lehman, B Jenkins, A.

We Salute 115 SPIRIT STICK ★_____★_____★ Practice, Perfection and Pride The spirit stick is new at Logan High School. Though it has been used during pep assemblies, few people realize what it symbolizes or how much work went into getting it here. The varsity cheerleaders (both football and basketball) attended a cheerleading workshop at Ashland College, July 18-21, in Ashland, Ohio. Each morning they learned a new cheer that had to be perfected for judging by evening. The judging was done by a different person each night. The judge would evaluate four or five squads. Each squad received a ribbon. The color of the ribbon indicated how good or bad the squad's performance had been. Besides these competitions, the cheerleaders were evaluated on their spirit. They had to be cheering every free minute, even on the way to lunch or their rooms. The practice was nec- essary if the cheers were to be per- fected for the nightly competitions. Since Logan's cheerleaders' rooms were all along the same wall, they made posters that spelled out Logan that they hung in the windows of their rooms. Many new cheers or chants were learned. Old ones were improved by new words or motions. Games helped the girls learn lead- ership and how to organize and coop- erate. They had to plan a mock pep assembly. The highlight at the end of the workshop was when Logan was pre- sented the spirit stick symbolizing our girls' participation and overall good performance. However, the skills involved in earning the spirit stick were not eas- ily obtained. The two squads have been practic- ing since school was out last year. Even through the hot, humid days of summer, they worked on routines for approximately two hours a day. Since school started, their time is even more valuable. Nevertheless, they spend over an hour a day, Tues- day through Thursday, practicing. At our first pep assembly, Friday, Sept. 30, the cheerleaders relin- quished the stick to John Kemper, president of the senior class, which earned it by showing enthusiasm at the assembly. The cheerleaders reflect the spirit of the student body. The practices they hold and their sense of school spirit are the result of both mental and physical effort. Having the spirit stick is a real honor, and our cheerleaders have earned it. RIGHT: Ken Krieg leads a cheer.

It didn't take long for the tallies to begin com- ing in from the electorial party, only to be kept a mystery until that special moment. . . The cheers and yells were engulfed by the chilly air as the superb Marching Chieftains came onto Bill Sauer Field to begin Homecoming activities on Oct. 28. Shortly thereafter the band went into its crown formation and provided background music, “Coronation March.” While Dick Erb, master of ceremonies, announced each Homecoming finalist as she emerged from a Corvette. After the introductions there was a long, dramatic pause during which each finalist's heart must have skipped a beat or two. There was just time for a final silent prayer for the girl of your choice before a powerful voice announced, The 1977 Homecoming Queen is Stepha- nie Rayburn Helber.” It took sometime before the cheering crowd finally quieted down. The Logan fight song was then heard blasting across the sta- dium and athletic field signaling the emergence of the Chieftain football team. The Chiefs came onto the field like fierce men ready to attack their enemy. That they did! Within two min- utes and forty-five seconds the Chiefs had made their way down the field for a fantastic touch- down along with a perfect kick for the extra point. This is one of the many plays that the Chiefs and Bulldogs would never forget. Still, in the first quarter, Logan went in for another touchdown making the score of the first quarter 14-0, Logan. Then in the second quarter Logan pushed the not-so-tough Athens defense back for a safety which gave Logan an extra two points. Before the half was up Logan managed a score of 37-6. The second half of the Home- coming game wasn't quite as fast a scoring game. Each team held the other to only seven additional points. When ten sec- onds were left on the score- board, the joyous Logan fans who had literally packed the sta- dium started the countdown loud and clear. At the zero mark the crowd and team started jumping up and down rejoicing a victory of 44-13. After the game the new Queen reigned over the Homecoming Dance sponsored by the Y-Teens. ‘‘The Night Life,” the band, played on as all the fans worked their tensions out by boogying the rest of the night away.

Thursday, Nov. 17, that fatal night, dawned cold and clear, perfect for the game. At seven, the game started. Before the first quarter rushed to a close. Junior Jenny Cassady had invaded the end zone. The fans, including many parents, shivered in the stands. Anxious cries from students made the class rivalry obvious. “Keep it up, juniors! Get going, sen iors! The Junior Jockettes were still ahead at the half, 6- 0. Finally, halftime! The band marched onto the field. They and the majorettes stood there patiently, waiting. A police car toured slowly by the stands. Then it stopped and released the six Powder Puff King candi dates. Dave Emerson, Scott Gasser, Marty Hallet, Steve Helber, John Kemper and Ned McGrady. Each was joined by an escort. As each candidate and his escort took their place on the field, their names were announced. Fans in the grandstands applauded and cheered loudly. A balloon on a stick was presented to each candidate by Mrs. Carolyn Johnston, a junior class advisor, and Ken Krieg, junior class president. The crowd tensed with anticipation. Once more the bodiless voice spoke, Ladies and gentlemen, the 1977 Powder Puff King is . . No one breathed. Ned McGrady! One huge yell was heard from those who had sup- ported him. Homecoming Queen Stephanie Rayburn Helber went forward to crown him. Ken Krieg approached Ned, this time to present the newly crowned king with a stuffed monkey. There he stood, crown on head, monkey and balloon in hand — the king! He walked slowly off the field. The magic was gone. Halftime proceeded as usual with workouts by both teams. The game resumed. The cheerleaders, unaccus tomed to the short skirts, awkwardly jumped and clap- ped in front of the grandstands. The persistent Senior Superstars held the Jockettes during the remainder of the game. Neither team scored. The juniors triumphed, 6-0. Juniors Lisa Riggs and Lori Moore anxiously watch the game. mk 1 As the final whistle blew, the junior players all rushed onto the field where th y huddled yelling and hugging. Becki Mong, senior, and Becky Kuhn, junior, were awarded trophies for being the Most Valuable Player on each of their teams. Then it was over. Cheerleaders, fans, parents — everyone — filed out.

We Salute 121 The BAND Goes Marching On You may not realize it, but during the last month of your summer vacation band members have already started their first practice sessions in the hot, sweaty days of August. The band begins its practices at eight o'clodk in the morning and works until noon every day for the first two weeks of August. Then it’s off to band camp for one whole week, and that's what it feels like, too, according to many band mem- bers. If you were a member of band, you would probably be getting up at 6:45 every day at camp and be expected to be out and ready for marching rehearsal by seven o'clock. With all the practices, band mem- bers have only four free hours which are almost always used for practicing new routines that the members must learn by morning rehearsal. After band camp, the band goes to a new schedule of practicing every Tuesday and Thursday from six to eight in the evening. The band, which is a very active organization, has done an outstand- ing job of playing the finest of music at all of Logan’s football games. They also participate in the Parade of the Hills and the Memo- rial Day Parade along with many other activities. The band entered competition at Marietta’s Band-O-Rama where they won Grand Champion. They also competed at Pickerington. When asked how he felt about band, a band member said, “It's a lot of work, but it's a good experi ence. Although band is a lot of sweating and hard work, it does give many students at Logan High School an opportunity to be chal- lenged. MAJORETTES — Wanda Whitcraft, Linda Amnah, Christy Walter.

Well, there's something you can do about this problem now. Go to the AERI- AL’S Annual Christmas Dance. You no longer have to spend those days of waiting for Christ- mas without some type of nerve- calming activity with your friends. The dance was scheduled to start at eight o'clock, but due to icy road conditions the band didn’t show up until 8:30. All that could be done was to give free refreshments to the sup- posed dancers who were very understanding. When the band finally arrived, they went into the great chore of setting up the equipment. Although the cus- Julie Walsh and Marty Hallet Bill Heft and Shirley Gay 124 We Salute Annual DANCE Lori Moore and Mike Montgomery Jan Myers and Marie Howdyshell Dave Erwin and Jill Long We Salute 125 tomers weren’t dancing, they did have an educational lesson on how a band sets up. After the band did get set up and started to play, it was a long time before the boogyers began to get the vibes from the music. During the first intermission the queens were to be named for each class. Marie Howdyshell was named queen of the sopho- more class. Lori Moore became queen of the junior class. Cap- turing the senior class queen title was Julie Walsh. After the queens were named, the band went back to their vibrations. During the second intermis- sion, gifts which were donated by local businesses were given away. Then it was back to danc- ing until the lights came on. Christi Johnson and Jay Braglin 126 We Salute PIECES OF LHS Where Do You Fit In? An individual's personality is composed of many differ- ent, and sometimes conflicting, characteristics. Schools, as well as people, have very distinct personali- ties. The personality of a school, however, is much more difficult to describe than that of a person. It is composed of a variety of organizations, sports and special activities, as well as outstanding students, teach- ers and administrators. LHS is a curious melting pot of academics, sports, drama, song and clubs. Academic activities at Logan are best exemplified by the active participation of many individuals in challenging scholarship teams, ranging from English to biology. All sports contests have a supportive, loyal, and very vocal, group of fans. The idea of having an annual production on the Hilltop is just now being accepted by the community and stu- dents. Drama is flourishing, and many fine actors are being discovered. The musical, like the play, is just being accepted. It, too, is looking forward to increased support in future years. Are you a chess buff or are you the more studious type? Clubs range from Chess Club to In The Know. There is an organization to interest everyone. Thus far, one could conclude that LHS is a very diverse, active school. To better understand it though, one must break it down even further, to the very essence of the school — the people. Walking along the second floor of the bustling old build- ing, near the cafeteria, one hears comments from the stu- dents. If I don't get in there soon. I’ll die! “Weren't all these people at the State Fair? The atmosphere becomes more subdued as one pro- ceeds down the hall toward the business rooms. Com ments concern homework rather than empty stomachs. Still further on, one could almost get trampled in the frantic mass of people fleeing the auditorium. The more harried elbow their way through. Others wait patiently for the onslaught to subside. The tardy bell rings annoyingly, and several close calls occur as students run the last few steps to their classes. The hall is empty, which exaggerates its need for the students. This section is an attempt to capture and preserve that special life that makes up our school, that would keep it from belonging in any place other than Logan. It is not one person; it is many. It is the complicated network formed by the many inter- acting individuals that spend an important part of their lives at school. It can not be pinpointed to one specific person, place or thing. It can only be experienced. Experience it through the mish-mash of students on these pages. They are only a small portion of those who contribute to our school, but, in them, you might see yourself and your contribution represented. Please, look for yourself on these pages. We Salute 127 a time to CELEBRATE! Thursday, Nov. 10, Logan Chieftain football fans pre pared for the evening game differently than they had any other. The festivities began at 6 p.m. behind Bill Sauer Field with a giant, blazing bonfire. Everyone participated in spir ited cheers setting the mood for the game against Gallipo lis. A day later, Logan rejoiced as the Chiefs won the last game of a perfect season and captured the Southeastern Ohio Athletic League title. As the last few seconds ticked off the clock, the stands came alive. Fans and cheerleaders rushed onto the field, laughing, crying and embracing. Meanwhile, the band added its mel- odious contribution. Then, a cloud of balloons rose lazily through the evening sky in sharp contrast to the joyous scene below. As a further impetus to the furor, the LHS football team left their locker room to join in the celebration. The team mingled with the crowd, and soon tears gave way to trium- phant yells. Minutes later, however, everyone grew quiet. The LHS coaching staff, Mr. Willis Dicken, and the foot- “A cloud of balloons rose lazily through the evening sky t! ball team gathered around a microphone at the foot of the grandstands. Members of the coaching staff and Mr. Dicken praised the team. Coach Robert Boynton expressed the feelings of many when he said, “You're only as good as the people you work with, and they deserve all the credit in the world.” Halfback John Kemper summed up the season, “It's been a great year, and I love it!” As the band began to play, the players and coaches left the field. The crowd slowly dissipated. A magic evening came to an end. Students got “fired-up” for the Callipolis game at the bonfire the day before Susan Gafke (top) and Cecilia Woltz show enthusiasm at the game. the bonfire. 128 We Salute Bringing Back The Spirit schools. Often at games, the opposing team has recruited a similar group of supporters. A purple felt banner with Logan let- tered on it in white was given to them by Wellston High School when they got new ones. People at other schools have tried to keep them from using their banner, saying it is not allowed. As Paul Shaw said, “It does influence other schools. Next year, H.R.A. hopes to be recog- nized as a club. Members will even have to pay dues. Their long-range goal is to buy a P.A. system for the baseball diamond. They hope to purchase purple beanies next year which would help them become rec- ognized as a unified group. Another possibility for next year is the chance that girls will be accepted into the organization. This would make the club even bigger. Troy Green says that team support “is every person s duty.” Obviously, H.R.A. takes that duty seriously. In the words of Treasurer Mark Tucker, “We’re pretty tough!” RONT ROW: Warren Klingenberg, Paul Shaw, Troy Green and Barry Miller. SECONO IOW: Jim Beery, Brad Jackson, Ken Krieg, Pat Summers, Mike Powers, Mark Tucker and H.R.A. is an informal, new organiza tion whose purpose is, as Troy Green says, to win games for the team. H.R.A was formed at Last year’s Lan- caster game when about six guys started leading their own cheers. Since then, the membership has bal looned to 20 with a huge group of active supporters. The group does have officers. Its presi- dent is Troy Green; vice president is Paul Shaw; treasurer is Mark Tucker and the secretary is Jim Beery. However, it is not recognized as a club. If a Pep Club bus is not going to an away game, the officers are responsible for arranging rides for the members. Also, they organize the group at games and lead cheers. There are four requirements for H.R.A. membership: a member cannot miss more than three games without a good excuse; no girls are accepted into the organization; members must participate in the group's original cheers; and, lastly, all members must be enthusiastic. Members who do not fulfill the require- ments can be expelled. H.R.A. has gained a lot of support due, in part, to the large amount of publicity it has received. Their reputation extends to other I D. Woltz. At games, H.R.A. members infect others with their obvious enthusiasm.

They have sold giant coloring books, had bake sales and dances, but their biggest money- making project was the fourth- quarter buttons. Over five hun- dred of these buttons were sold to the faculty and the students. Everywhere you looked you saw a Chieftain fan wearing his fourth-quarter button. These efforts will help to make the Jr.-Sr. Prom of 1980 a great success. MIDDLE LEFT: Kraig Jackson visiting Tri- County J.V.S. LOWER LEFT: Teresa McIntosh in language lab finds something amusing.

The history of its origin is hazy, to say the least. It may be a carryover from the earliest times when different clans or tribes wore a symbol of recognition. Perhaps it evolved from an arti- cle of clothing, such as a Scot- tish kilt or a Portuguese earring. Eveh the words class ring seem to indicate a special set of peo- ple. Today the term class ring has come to be associated with a high school or a society such as the Masons. In today’s society the class ring has many mean- ings. It is given to a sweetheart, or a loved one as a sign of affec- tion. It is worn for an honor from a military school, like West Point or Annapolis. Probably most class rings are bought and worn from the good times in a per- sonal life. To find out what teachers and students think on the subject, I interviewed several. There were ten teachers and six students interviewed. Only 20% of the teachers still wore their class rings. A few of their comments were: it was a gift, they got it in college for baseball, and they always wore it. The 80% that didn’t wear them said: they didn’t match their clothes and that they couldn’t wear it because of the type of work they did. Some of the students replies were: they got a class ring because they were always told they should buy one to show school spirit, that they may someday want to give it to a friend. After the interview of the stu- dents and teachers I found out that more students than teach- ers wear a class ring. LOWER RIGHT: Jeff Scott showing Cindy Miller his class ring.

Sophomores 137 Trudy Lanning Mark Later Tara Leffler Brian Lehman Career Exploration — Hands On!” The purpose is to give stu- dents who are freshmen and sophomores an opportunity to look at at least three occupa- tions they are interested in. At this level students are asked to look at their abilities and apti- tudes and to go through deci- sion-making and value-clarifica- tion activities. The program is open to any freshman or sophomore student, but in order to go on “On Site” visitation each student must complete extensive research on a specific occupation. Any stu- dent who completes this research and has an application signed by parents, teachers, counselors, and his principal may go. The employers are very coop- erative with the advisor and the students because the experience helps the student and the employer. For the students it is a chance to learn a new trade, and for the employers it means more business for letting young people work at their stores. Since this was the first year of the program, it was only held once; however, next year they hope to expand the program. They would like to have students participate after school also so that they can work with the employers for a longer period of time.

Sophomores 141 SOPHOMORE TRI- On February 8th and 15th, 1978, 170 sophomores from Logan High School vis- ited the Tri-County Joint Vocational School. The main purpose of the visit was to provide an opportunity for sopho- mores to further explore the vocational programs at Tri-County J.V.S. The stu- dents visited the three programs they chose during the freshman year general tour of Tri-County. No applications are processed until after March 25. Therefore, any student who misses the visitation day (which is normally scheduled for mid-January) is allowed to make up the visitation before March 25. When asked if visiting the programs at Tri-County really helps the students decide what program they want to follow the next year, Joe Del Ciello, guidance counselor, replied, “Yes. This in-depth visitation allows students to spend suffi- cient time in each of their three program choices, to see students at work in these programs, to converse with the instruc- tor and students about the program, and, in some instances, to actually perform some of the basic tasks required of the program. They should then be able to narrow down their consideration to one program and rank the two remaining pro- grams in the order of their preference. Students are not automatically assumed to be attending the Joint Voca- tional School the next year if they partici- pate in the Sophomore Visitation. The visitation is for any student who is even slightly interested in Tri-County and wishes to gather more information about the program of his or her interests.

It was our first year of senior high school and brought on many different, and sometimes difficult, problems to be conquered and resolved. It also was filled with many good times in class, during lunch, before and after school, and at meetings and sports events. We have started to think about our futures and what we are going to do with our lives after gradua- tion. There are many options such as attending college or technical school, attending Tri-County Joint Vocational School during our junior and senior years, getting married, getting a job directly out of high school, and many other possibili- ties. We are starting to grow up, physically and emotionally. We have many important decisions to make now and in the future, and we hope to be able to meet the chal- lenges that they provide for us. Our sophomore year of school has been an important time in our lives. We will never forget our expe- riences from this time. We may change our plans, personalities, and even our lives, but we will always cherish memories from our sophomore year of high school. UPPER RIGHT: A typical sophomore class.

Communicate Down through the ages, many dif- ferent methods have been used for passing ideas and feelings from one person to another. People can express themselves with music, pictures, sculptures, drama and even dance. The possibilities are almost endless, but the most common method of com- munication is language. It is a normal part of our daily routine. The study of language in school is considered to be the most important because nearly all other subjects depend on the understanding of lan- guage. All languages have some kind of organization. This organization must be understood to have a full use of lan- guage as a tool. Though they differ in sounds and form, all languages have the same basic design. The ability to speak and write well is essential for success in many fields such as journal- ism, business, or almost any career where there is contact with the public. Without language, many of our mod- ern devices of communication would not be possible. Radio, television, telephone, letters, newspapers, maga- zines and books all depend on the use of language.

History, psychology and sociology all have one common interest, people, all around us, all different kinds of people; people who were and people who are. Deep in the quiet hollows of the Appalacian mountains and bus- tling around in the big cities, people abound and thrive. It’s hard to stereotype people, but many try. For years we have studied our past, analyzing our historical actions. We've studied all aspects of human behavior such as emotions, feelings, motives, and normal and abnormal behavior alike, trying to probe and understand the uncon- scious mind, discovering the how and why. We examine man alone and in groups. Thoughts about the relation- ship of man to his fellow beings are as old as human knowledge. We need other people to influence our opinions and attitudes, to love and care for us. Man is a sociable creature and suffers without companionship. What makes us different from other animals? Our senses such as smell, taste, touch, etc. are the same, but man is intuitive not instinctive. Man can reason with his mind. Our human mind is still a wonderful mystery. Some say it is a definite thing apart from the body and closely related to the soul. Others say it is bound to the body by the interaction between the two. Maybe our mind and soul are the same. Sociology was born in 1837, spun off from anthropology. Sociologists study roles and attitudes adopted by people in a group: why prejudices develop, how leaders and followers are chosen, and how public opinion can be influenced. They use several methods to gather their information including opinion polls and surveys, community studies and case histories. Sociology is closely related to psychology. The subject matter of both is hard to limit because there are many fields and uses of the two sciences. Psychology helps us to discover our selves and understand our emotions of anger or happiness and the causes of them. The first psychologists were really philosophers who tried to answer questions about man's nature and the qualities of the soul. Sigmund Freud started the science of psychol- ogy in 1885 by stating that the source of mental illness was not physical defects in the nervous system but was an emotional illness. Sociology, history and psychology can benefit everyone. If you haven’t been exposed to the study of history, you have no previous basis on which to judge your own experience. By under standing yourself, what is expected of you ana your own emotions, you can better understand what life is all about. Faculty 151 Playing the Numbers Game Mathematics is considered “a branch of human activity which is con- cerned with the logical arrangements of such things as number, quantity, and form.” It is commonly called the Queen of the Sciences because it plays an important role in every sci- ence. For example, many astronomical discoveries were made with the use of mathematics, and it is a fundamental of physics. Mathematics is also impor- tant in our daily lives. Every time we buy something, we are using mathe- matics. General Math is concerned with numbers. It is a system that can be deduced from certain principles. It is a type of math that is applied to various problems in the world around us which also includes problems of other sci- ences. Algebra is a form of math that cov- ers a much broader area than general math. Letters are used as symbols to represent a great many different num- bers. Sometimes the letters will apply to all numbers, and other times the letters are used to indicate unknown numbers when a problem is to be solved. Geometry is concerned with the rel- ationship between points, lines and planes and the figures which can be formed from them such as circles, squares, and triangles. It is a logical system which is built upon postulates, axioms and Euclid's theorems. Each new theorem must be proved by already proven theorems, postulates or axioms. Computer math is a new course being offered at LHS. It is a type of math that uses computer techniques to solve math problems. The purpose of this course is to introduce students to computers and teach them to think more critically about mathematical operations.

What is science? According to the Webster’s New Collegiate Dictionary science is the possession of knowl- edge as distinguished from ignorance or misunderstanding; there are many more definitions. A few of the LHS sci- ence teachers gave their own defini- tions of science. Mr. Truesdell, physics and science survey teacher, explains science as having a two-part definition. He said, “Science is both a method of learning new knowledge and a body of knowl- edge.” Mr. Fickel, who teaches college prep and advanced biology, defined science as ‘‘an organized body of knowledge derived from the scientific method. Mr. Platt, general biology teacher, explained science as being “an inter- pretation of the living and non-living on this earth. These are the definitions that the science teachers came up with, but if you would ask a student what science means to him . . . well, that's a com- pletely different story!

Faculty 153 Color Your World There are few people who have never come in contact with music or art. We are surrounded by these two forms of beauty in every aspect of life. In fact, music and art are closely rela- ted to life itself. We can listen to music as we are driving down the highway, shopping, working or even watching a movie. Grass, trees, sky, flowers . . . are all examples of art. Music dnd art create moods in us that run the spectrum of emotions. Music that is forceful and exciting stirs excitement in us. Soft, slow music creates a peaceful, restful feel- ing. In art, moods can be created with color. Bright colors like red, orange, hot pink or yellow stimulate hot feelings like excitement. The cool col- ors: blue, green, and purple, stir softer, quieter emotions. When teaching art or music, it is best to expose the student to as many different types of subject matter as possible. This method gives students a better understanding of the spectrum of art or music, and they learn what effects they can achieve when they do their painting or musical arrange- ment. To excel in art or music, takes a spe- cial kind of person, one who must pos- sess great discipline and awareness along with ability.

Save Your Life Right now there are many peo pie from all walks of life who are on a physical fitness kick. The teachers and students at L.H.S. are no exception. Many of these people work out independently. Realizing that an inactive body frequently leads to an inactive mind, our school officials also encourage physical fitness. We emphasize fitness in four areas: basic physical education or gym class; health class; first aid, a new offering; and, of course, high school athletics. Like any required course, phys. ed. has its share of reluc- tant participants. In fact many students question why this course is required through their sophomore year. Recognizing the need for physical activity, the State of Ohio puts this man- date on a school system. The cal- isthenics which some students complain about at the beginning of each class are really three- fold in purpose: they are good toning exercises, they aid in car- dio vascular stimulation, and they loosen the muscles for more strenuous class activity. In health education, instruc- tors help students understand what is meant by total health and how it relates to effective day-to-day living. Basically they are attempting to motivate stu- dents to achieve and maintain their potential level of health. More and more people are coming to recognize a basic need in society of everyone's knowing something about first aid. If we do not wish to actively help in an emergency, we should at least know what not to do. This is most important since there are many misconceptions about basic first aid procedure, and fol- lowing what mom always said often leads to a worsened condi- tion. Most of our athletes are in better physical condition than the average guy or gal in the hall since they get much more than the fifteen-to-thirty-minute daily workout that experts recom- mend to keep body and mind alert. How many of us will stay in shape after we graduate? How many will have had a heart attack before forty?

Learning to Make a Home Home Economics is taught by Miss Pine and Miss Gasiorek and includes cooking, home furnishing, sewing and child care. The girls learn to lay out sewing patterns, furnish their homes, take care of children, and prepare din- ners. Most everyone has appreciated the appetizing aroma around room 107. It catches your attention and tantalizes your senses. Each group of girls is assigned to one of the various small kitchenettes and is given labs to pre- pare during the three-mod period. Eat- ing the goodies is a nice fringe benefit of cooking in home economics. Every nine weeks, students are required to turn in an I EE. These are home extended experiences which are done outside of classtime. Each stu- dent does one project in every subject. In room 111 there are sewing machines, ironing boards and personal trays for individual materials. Stu- dents learn to distinguish the different types of fabrics and patterns. Com- pleted projects are attractively dis- played in the showcase near the door. Miss Delores Pine, Miss Carolyn Gasiorek. 156 Faculty FROM LEFT: Mr. Dwayne Hoffman, Mr. Ed Killoran, Mr. Tom Rieratt. LHS Craftsmen There are many reasons for the industrial arts class's popularity at LHS. A less structured classroom pro- cedure allows the students to have more freedom while working on their class projects. Constant activity and tangible end products add to the popu- larity. The average enrollment is approxi- mately twenty-five students per class while overall senior high enrollment is around three hundred students. Stu- dent attitude toward the course is pos- itive, and interest is high. The goals of the course are to help students team basic skills and to help them better evaluate their own skills when selecting a vocation. Students of industrial arts have good backgrounds for industrial and construction jobs. They are also better equipped in later life for home maintenance. Machin- ists, draftsmen, and air transportation technicians benefit from industrial arts programs, and many skills are carried over as hobbies. The newest course, aerospace, teaches both the history and the tech- nical aspects of flight. Some girls are now enrolling in the class and are doing very well, and the quality of the girls' work is equal to that of the boys. MIDDLE: Mr. Hoffman instructs students on machine safety.

Faculty 157 Feeding America “Vocational agriculture prepares the students to deal with people, to express themselves better and to have more self confidence. That is the feeling Mr. Fred Walters, vocational agriculture instructor, has about stu- dents who participate in this class. Here students learn the basics of agriculture. They understand the vari- ous types of agriculture although we center on the production of food and fiber. Class members are required to do a home project to get “hands-on experience from what they learn in class. Projects involve raising live- stock or crops and keeping records. Several students go on to further their education in agriculture, some con- tinue with full-time farming, and some farm part time. Others may seek employment with an agriculture serv- ice. Three vocational agriculture stu- dents, Lee Canter, Jim Skinner and Bryan Starner combined their feelings about why learning agriculture is important. They stated, “Being in agriculture develops many skills which can be useful in our careers. FFA, we feel is the basis to understanding the agricultural field itself. It provides a variation of experiences from speak- ing contests to judging teams to dif- ferent leadership opportunities. When asked why he thought it important to teach agriculture Mr. Walter replied, “It is the only thing our country has to offer for balance of trade. We need educated people because it is complex. They need to become more efficient so they can stay competitive in what they do.” ABOVE RIGHT: Raising horses is just one of the numerous projects that a Vo Ag student can work on.

Preparing for the Future The primary objective of business education is the preparation of indi- viduals for practical business experi- ences. Formal business training is a fairly recent development in educa- tion. Originally people thought apprenticeship was the best way to learn a business. This was successful when businesses were small, but with the industrial revolution the increas- ingly complex world of business increased the demand for a system of education which would train people for commercial occupations in a short period of time. Now education for bus- iness has become a branch of both public and private school systems. Business education in secondary schools has a fourfold purpose: (1) to give students a good understanding of the American business system, (2) to teach students to handle usual family and personal business matters in an efficient manner, (3) to help students plan careers in business and in making further educational plans toward this goal and (4) to prepare students for business employment after graduation from high school. Merchants seem to feel that students can generally be better prepared with on-the-job train- ing while office proprietors feel office personnel should have a certain amount of preparation in school before starting employment. Logan High School offers the three basic business subjects (accounting, short- hand and typing) as well as courses in business English, business law, con- sumer education, general business and salesmanship. Also a distributive education course is offered where a student goes to school half a day and works half a day. This program is com- monly known as “DECA.” Business preparation on a level higher than high school has become increasingly more popular. The main purposes of collegiate business educa- tion is also fourfold: (1) to prepare people for executive or administrative types of positions in business, (2) to prepare people in specialized areas of business, (3) to develop a thorough understanding of our economic sys- tem and how management should operate along with the social purpose of business and (4) to provide a knowl- edge of the complex problems of human relationships so they may work efficiently with people. The college of business administration tries to edu- cate students seeking professional careers in business as well as in gov- ernment and nonprofit organizations. It might offer such majors as account- ing, finance, general business, man- agement, marketing and quantitative methods depending upon which col- lege you attend. Also many students not majoring in business courses in order to get a better understanding of the world they work in. It is a good idea to major in business if you are planning to prepare for a career in law. Faculty 159 Understanding The guidance counselors have a new set-up this year. They were given an area all to themselves across from the auditorium. They also have their own secretary, Judy Hamilton, who makes appointments and writes passes for students. Both counselors, Mr. Savage and Mr. Del Ciello, feel that they can now work more efficiently without being interrupted, especially during seminars. Some problems students face that the counselors can help them with are habits such as smoking and drinking. Mr. Savage and Mr. Del Ciello agreed that smoking and drinking are habit- ual and that they, like all habits, are hard to break by oneself. They are also very harmful to one's body systems. Most students begin drinking or smoking because of strong peer pres- sure. When a teenager sees someone he likes smoking, he wants to identify with that person, and, consequently, starts a habit that may last the rest of his life. Students are anxious to be recognized as adults in the commu- nity. Many see their parents smoking or drinking and believe that by doing the same, they will become adults. About three years ago, we had a problem with people smoking in the restrooms. The doors leading from the hall were taken off. However smoking at school was still the “forbidden fruit,” and students continued to smoke. Today students have an area in which to smoke, providing they have their parents' permission. Both counselors think the smoking area is a good solution to the pressing problem. Students have very definite ideas about smoking and drinking. Several look down on all people who smoke or drink and absolutely detest walking past the smoking area. Others say that nobody can tell them not to smoke or drink because it’s their privi- lege. Many adults can't stop drinking and smoking. If they quit outright, they would suffer various degrees of with- drawal. Teenagers should consider this when they're developing the habit.

The Senior High administration con- sists of the School Board, Superin- tendent Nace, Mr. Murtha and Mr. Stump. They, working together, are what makes our school tick like a clock. Mr. Stump, our principal, does much more than read the announce- ments during homeroom. Plenty of responsibility is heavy on his shoul- ders. An overall term for his job might be enforcing the school policy among students and teachers. Do you real- ize what that term means? He and Mr. Murtha evaluate teach- ers every year. It's a very time-con- suming job, but it enables Mr. Stump to say, We've got the best staff in southeastern Ohio’s AAA schools.” They also order new materials for the classrooms. After talking with an administrator, you easily get the feeling that they’re working for US. Faculty 161 Making It All Happen Smoothly H At first appearance, a school seems to consist only of students and teach- ers, but in reality there are many dedi- cated groups of people who work together to keep the school function- ing. If you have ever been in a study hall trying desperately to study for a test next mod, then you would certainly appreciate the study hall monitors. These brave souls survive the every- day hassles that their job demands of them and still manage to keep some order in the study halls. The nurse, secretaries and workers hired on the CETA program can be found throughout the school ready and eager to help in any way they can. The cooks and custodians are also very important teams. Have you ever thought just how hard it would be to cook a well-balanced meal for over 1900 students and make sure that there is plenty of food left for the hun- gry students who eat 17th mod? Not only do they cook and provide “service with a smile,” but they also clean the trays and silverware and keep the kitchen neat. The custodians are those hard- working people who cheerfully accept such jobs as sweeping floors, erasing blackboards and cleaning restrooms. All of these teams work together with the administration, teachers and students to keep Logan High School running smoothly.

Activities 165 Award Winning Cheerleaders Cheer Teams on to Victory Do you think cheerleading has always been like it is today? Yes? No? the correct answer is proba- bly somewhere in between. In 1956 cheerleaders wore skirts that were so long they nearly touched their bobby socks; around the early 1970’s they wore skirts that nearly reached their thighs. Now skirts are a respectable length. Girls now have traveling uniforms to wear; years ago there was no such thing. The cheers in 1956 were just short, easily-performed chants, but as time progressed the rou- tines became longer and more complicated with the addition of more body movements. The skits we all love were orig- inated in 1957, with a “This is your life for basketball players. It went over well, and skits have been a tradition ever since. The method of selecting cheerleaders has undergone a big change also. In 1956 it was just a matter of popularity. The interested sophomore girls got up in front of the student body and performed their cheers in a group. The student body then voted; the girls with the most votes were to be cheerleaders for the rest of their high school years. As the senior girls gradu- ated, two more sophomores were chosen to fill their places. Now to be a cheerleader you have to practice, display good coordination, have gymnastic ability and show leadership. You then try out in front of a panel of judges. The judges require that you are capable of performing foundation stunts such as: basic cheers and chants, cartwheels, splits, round offs and pompon routines. After completing this, you are also given a situation and asked to explain the way in which you would handle it.

Susan Gafke, missing from picture Judy Refeld A fairly new addition to cneer leading is a clinic. This is an activity held for cheerleaders at a college. The girls go to a clinic to learn new cheers, chants, pompon routines and how to get crowds started. Being a cheerleader to lots of people may just seem to be a step up the social ladder. But to the girls who are cheerleaders it means different things. To Mrs. Patti Sinnot, who was a cheer- leader for Logan High School from 1956-1958, it meant bringing me out of my shyness and developing me into a leader for my future life.” Miss Gail Gibson, LHS sociology teacher, thought that, Being a cheer- leader helped me to enjoy high school, and it was easy. It taught me to cooperate and be a good loser along with keeping me physically fit.” While Miss Deb- bie Mathias, LHS health and sci- ence teacher and cheerleading advisor, agreed with Miss Gibson that cheerleading taught you cooperation and kept you physi- cally fit, she also thought that “it taught me responsibility and confidence in myself.” As for this year's cheerleaders and their feelings for the future, Susan Walsh, varsity captain, thinks that It is teaching me to speak out and voice my opinion, to get along with others, and to better understand their prob- lems,” while Shirley Gay, reserve captain, feels, “It will help me with coordination and with gymnastic and physical edu- cation.” Pompons add color and emphasis to any cheer.

Five hundred of you were. Working to get all of these stu- dents involved were this year's cheerleaders, who presented the student body with three pep assemblies. Other means the cheerleaders used to get stu- dents involved were to sell T- shirts, to have the industrial arts classes make clappers for indi- viduals to use at games, and also to have the entire club meet to make all the booster signs that are hung around the school. All these things helped to make everyone feel more involved. This year the cheerleading advisor. Miss Debbie Mathias, is also the head of pep club. The officers of 1977-78 pep club are Susie McClain and Becky Mong, presidents; Kim May, treasurer; and Judy Refeld, secretary.

The Players' Guild pre- sented Flowers For Algernon, a play in two acts written by Daniel Keyes, on December 10 and 11 in the high school auditorium. It is the story of Charlie Gordon (portrayed by Jim McLin), a man of thirty-two with an I.Q. of sixty- eight. He was given an operation to increase his intelligence. Unfortunately, while Charlie was going through the trauma of intellectual change, he became a self-centered and arrogant per son. His love affair with his teacher, Alice Kinnian (por- trayed by Teresa Febes), as well as unhappy childhood memories added to the trauma. Throughout the duration of the play, Charlie identifies with Algernon, a mouse that had the same operation as he. Algernon begins to regress, and Charlie frantically tries to find what went wrong and a way to correct it. At the end of the play, Charlie returns to the person he was before the operation, mentally retarded but very loving and car- ing toward those around him. One added benefit for the cast members was that Daniel Keyes, an instructor at Ohio University as well as the writer of the play, attended one of the perform- ances and was pleased. A cast party was held on December 11 after the play at the Lucky Lady Saloon. Here the cast members reviewed their mistakes and rejoiced over the success of the play.

Activities 171 Aerial Recreates Memories of Years Gone by “If we don't meet this dead- line . . This was the usual statement made by Mrs. Jones at the begin- ning of every class. Organizing a book like the Aerial is very hard work consisting of long hours after school, dedication, and responsibility. Many students who will be involved in making page layouts and cropping pic- tures learn all the fundamentals of putting a yearbook together while attending summer camp and workshops. The Aerial staff also did things that the students can identify with better. For instance, the annual Christmas Dance honor- ing the Christmas Queen and runners-up was sponsored by the staff. LHS students also enjoyed many Aerial sponsored record hops which turned out to be very successful. When the work's all done and sent away, it's still not time to loaf or play!

Chieftain Gongs in the Year Success was the name for the hardworking 1977-78 Chieftain staff. One of the big changes that faced the staff was the move from a newspaper to a news magazine. This meant they could do more feature writing and have a bigger publication although it wouldn’t come out quite as often. Publishing a news maga- zine also meant new positions for students. A Tri-County corre- spondent, entertainment editor, his or her assitant, and the scrubs were added. The pie and banana eating contest was replaced by the Gong Show which was very well accepted by many people. The show was sponsored by the staff with the entertainment being provided by LHS students, staff and the town’s people. The win- ner, Alan Kalklosch, was awarded a trophy and a check for $54.84. Besides publishing the Chief tain, the staff worked very hard to publish the Logan City School District's Annual Progress Report and also the powder puff programs. Each Chieftain staff with which I’ve had the pleasure to work has been unique. The 1977-78 staff, however, has dis- played some special qualities. They have been trendsetters by changing to the newsmagazine format, earning more money than they spent, and initiating the scrubs” and the first LHS Gong Show. Individual talent combined with teamwork, coop- eration, and pride has made this year's Chieftain a success,” said Chris Killoran. UPPER LEFT: Team power. UPPER RIGHT: Justifying is so much fun.

If you answered yes you seem to be in a minority group here at LHS. Most students tend to think of them as boring and dull, but some students have found an alternative. Some students do skip out, but others have found more constructive means of using this time. These students work as gym, library and office assistants during their study hall mods. The first semester five students worked in the senior high office, sixteen helped Mr. Erb in the attendance office, eleven helped out in the guid- ance office, fourteen helped out with girls' physical education classes, eleven helped out with the boys’ physical education classes, and eight helped Mr. McCormick in the library. The gym assistants take attendance, officiate for the games, help teach new techni- ques, supervise the locker room, and just generally help out wher- ever they are needed. The library assistants check out books, dust shelves, keep the books in order, decorate bul- letin boards, and help students who need to find books or research materials. The office assistants run errands, type papers, deliver absentee slips, look up students’ schedules, file materials, assist the secretaries with clerical duties, and help students with various requests and problems such as schedule changes.

Each FTA member is required to assist a teacher by grading papers or helping stu- dents during a study hall mod or after school. Through this pro- gram, students experience the same type of difficulties, frustra- tions and joys that teachers must face everyday. Through their varied experiences they can better understand the world of teaching and decide whether or not they would like to be teach- ers. This organization is also bene- ficial to those students who don’t want to be teachers. It gives the students a chance to help others. This helps them to feel useful and thus get more pleasure out of school. They also get a chance to better under- stand the learning situation because they can see the teach- er’s point of view. They help themselves by developing feel- ings of responsibility while they teach others. Mrs. Robin Del Ciello, the club advisor, feels that today's FTA program is better than the one she was in during high school. She stated that when she was in high school the club was more club oriented. They had more bake sales and dances with very little practical experience. Therefore, they were never really able to comprehend the duties and rewards that are part of the teaching profession. Most members are helping out in junior high classrooms, and some are also helping the study hall monitors. A special program was established this year with Central Elementary School so that members could help the kin- dergarten teachers there. FTA can be a very rewarding experience for those who want to help others. This organization helps our teachers of tomorrow think objectively about teaching methods and how they might improve them to better educate the students they might teach in the not-too-far-away future. Activities 175 FHA Boils Over Wi+h En+h usiasm If your image of an American homemaker is that of a lady sit- ting in front of a television, maybe dusting a little between favorite soap operas. Miss Pine and Miss Gasiorek are really let- ting the members of FHA down. They are encouraging their twenty-one members to actively participate in life. Participate how? Learning how to help friends in distress is one way. By having a “Rock-A Thon,” they earned money and gave half their proceeds to the “Butch Kellar Fund.” Learning what makes both older and younger citizens happy is another important goal. At Christmas, they made a mitten tree with small gifts for the Long Term Care Unit at Hocking Val- ley Community Hospital. They also had a Christmas Boutique and Santa Shop combination to teach younger, grade school kids the pleasure and fun of buying and giving inexpensive gifts. Community service projects also played an important part in par- ticipation. Helping make the community a cleaner and a nicer place to live is one of their important service projects. FHA doesn’t want the student body to be left out in the cold. They allow us to share their bounty by spon- soring a dance for us to enjoy. The club has changed along with the times. They are more excited about getting involved in their different activities. The club wants to be recognized, and the active participation of mem- bers in the club activities seems to have risen to nearly 75%. FHA hopes that their service projects will help them to be a more active and well-known club in the years to come. FRONT ROW: Nancy Primmer, Crystal Smith, Tammy Stimmel, Cristy Sigler.

FFA Plows Through To Success Forty-five to fifty years ago a program of great importance made its appearance at Logan High School. This program was the FFA, an organization that was created to help educate indi- viduals who planned on making a living from the land. The FFA, Future Farmers of America, have certain require- ments that must be met in order to become a member in the order. The requirements are: You must at least be a freshman. You must be a Vocational Agri- culture student. You must also have a home project, which sug- gests that a member must live on a farm, but this isn’t true. The different projects that are taken involve livestock and or crops of all types. This could range from one steer or one patch of corn to hundreds of cows and fields of corn. This pro- ject not only consists of raising plants and animals but keeping complicated records and always trying to improve on production. FFA is often compared to 4-H, but when the truth is known it is different in in many aspects. For instance there is larger produc- tion and more specialities in FFA helping a person become inter- ested in this type of career. Girls are also becoming more involved in the FFA because there are more employment openings for women in the agri- cultural field. FAR UPPER LEFT: Shane Johnson practices his welding skills.

Activities 177 Student Council Presents Awards Assembly One of the most widely rec- ognized clubs at LHS is Stu- dent Council, an organization composed of students who are elected by their fellow classmates. Student Council's main objective is to better communications between the student body and faculty. Student Council is known for many things, but the most successful project that they do is to sponsor the Nostalgia Day and Dance. Although there was not much student involvement with dressing up in the style of the 50’s, Stu- dent Council hopes to get more students involved in the years to come by adding new ideas and attractions. Another widely recognized project associated with Stu- dent Council is the annual Sr. High Awards Assembly. The Awards Assembly recognizes students who have received special awards during the school year. In the future. Student Council hopes to accomplish the task of getting the stu- dent body more privileges within the school. UPPER LEFT: Lisa Moore takes a break from her duties as president of Student Council.

Political Science Club Debates The I ssues Political Science Club, under the leadership of Mrs. Gail Wag- ner, has been very active this year, despite the complication of lost school days. Mrs. Wagner says the twenty member club is to “introduce students to the process of government. To achieve this goal, the club has met twice a month and has emphasized speakers. The highlight of the year was a March field trip to the Capitol Building in Columbus. They met Oakley Collins, state senator from District 17, and toured the building with Clair (Buzz) Ball, Ohio representative to the House. Also, they were fortunate in being able to sit in on a com- mittee hearing on school finances in regard to the closing of many Ohio schools because they lack money. Buzz Ball spoke to the group here at LHS on the importance of taking an active interest in government and explained how to get involved in politics. Mar- garet Sinsel, city treasurer, spoke to the group about the Republican party. In April, members of the club stationed themselves outside the cafeteria with the materials to register voters. The project proved worthwhile as sixty-five students and teachers regis- tered. UPPER LEFT: Student look at the state seal located in the Capitol Building.

Activities 179 Special Events 1977-78 During the past school year clubs have been involved in activities that set them and this year apart from other years. Some of these activities occur annually while others are new to LHS this year. The Aerial held its second annual Christmas Dance on December 21 with Julie Walsh being crowned the Christmas Queen. The Chieftain, on the other hand, decided to hold a Gong Show this year on January 7 instead of the pie and banana eating contest. Alan Kalkolsch, doing imitations, won the Gong Show and received a check for $54.78. Student Council sponsored a Nostalgia Day and Dance on March 31. They also held the Annual Awards Assembly on May 15. The National Honor Society held its induction ceremony on April 7. This year NHS inducted forty-five new mem bers. A new club this year, the Political Sci- ence Club visited our state capitol and talked with Claire (Buzz) Ball. Also the Jay-Teens and Y-Teens joined together to prepare a float for the Christmas Parade. The float was entitled “Teens in Toy- land and the clubs earned second place. DECA held a donkey-basketball game and painted the city gates on city clean up day, while, Spanish and French stu- dents made projects and attended a Lan guage Fair at Ohio University where they earned first place for schools with two languages. The Players Guild, on December 10 and 11, presented a play entitled Flowers For Algernon The Choir, along with other members of the student body, per formed a musical on May 4, 5, and 6 enti- tled “Where’s Charley? The Choir performed a Christmas Assembly on December 19 while the Sen ior Y-Teens held an Easter Assembly. A few members dressed up as bunnies and Easter baskets were given to selected students. The Band held both a winter and a spring concert. The Dance Band held an assembly on May 17 which pertained to jazz and the evolution of rock and-roll. This has been a busy year for many of the clubs at LHS. The events mentioned above are only a few of the activities stu- dents will remember from this year. Many of the clubs not mentioned have also held activities that students will remember, activities that have brought pleasure to others and growth to club members.

NHS — Honor The official name of the chapter is the Logan Senior High School Chapter of the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools. Article I, Section 2 of the NHS constitution states “The object of this chapter shall be to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy lead ership, and to encourage the develop ment of character in pupils of Logan Sen- ior High School. Sophomores who obtain a 3.5 average are eligible for probationary member ship; the following year they become active members it they meet the require- ments. Juniors and seniors must have a 3.2 average to be considered for mem- bership. Probationary members have all the privileges of the other members except that they cannot hold office. Active members are known as working members, and seniors chosen for mem bership just prior to graduation are known as honorary members. Members are selected by a council that evaluates them on scholarship, leadership, charac- ter and service. The National Honor Society tapping ceremony was held on April 7, 1978 in the LHS auditorium. Guest speaker for the event was Dr. Ping, president of Ohio University. Forty-five new members were inducted mto membership with each new member receiving a membership card. After the assembly a reception was held for the new members and their families in the cafeteria. Each year the National Honor Society is required to do a service project. On April 22, NHS sponsored a dance with most of the proceeds going to help Rec- reation Unlimited, a camp held during the summer for the physically and men tally handicapped. Officers, with the exception of the president, are nominated and elected by the members. A vice president is elected at the end of the person's sophomore year. This person serves as vice presi dent during his junior year and then is promoted to serve as president during his senior year. The 1977-78 vice presi- dent and 1978-79 president is Ken Krieg. Activities 181 Where's Charley? •‘Where’s Charley?,’’ a musical in two acts, was presented in the LHS audito- rium on May 4, 5 and 6 at 7:30. The musical takes place in Oxford, England, in the year 1892. At this period of time young ladies were not allowed to go out with young men unless a female chaper one could be provided for them. On this day, Amy Spettigue (Marsha Mathias) and Kitty Verdun (Jerri Lee Lehman) have come to have lunch with Charley Wykeman (John Connor) and Jack Ches- ney (Scott Gordon). A problem arises when Charley's rich aunt Donna Lucia D'Alvadorez (Carleen Graham), who is to chaperone the lunch date, decides to come at a later time. When Charley tries on his costume for a college play. Jack gets the idea that Charley should portray his aunt. Another problem occurs when Mr. Spettigue (Alan Kalklosch) starts pursuing Charley (dressed as Donna Lucia) because Mr Spettigue is after her money. A third problem arises when Sir Francis Chesney (Gary Huffines) proposes to Charley (again dressed as his aunt) in an attempt to get Donna Lucia's money. Another tense moment occurs when the real Donna Lucia D'Alvadorez appears on the scene. That evening a cotillion was held. In the ladies room just before the cotillion starts, Charley tricks Spettigue into writ ing letters of consent for the marriages of Amy and Charley and Kitty and Jack by promising to marry him. In the meantime Mr. Chesney has fallen in love with the real Donna Lucia although he doesn't know who she really is. The musical comes to a climax when Mr. Spettigue returns with the letters only to find out that Charley was only posing as his aunt. Spettigue then ref uses to give Charley the consent forms. Donna Lucia D'Alvadorez saves the day, however, by revealing her true identity and taking the consent forms made out to her by Mr. Spettigue. She hands the consent forms to the couples who now have the permission they needed in order to get married. At the end of the musical Amy and Charley, Kitty and Jack, and Donna Lucia and Mr. Chesney are plan ning their weddings. Mr. Spettigue, on the other hand, is disappointed because he didn’t get Donna Lucia's money. A lot of planning went into the produc tion of the musical. Members of the LHS Band formed an orchestra to perform the instrumental accompaniment for the musical. Some of the costumes were made while others were rented from Act One Theatre Costumes. Some of the scenery was secured from the Schell See nic Studio. The total effect was an enjoy- able evening for all who saw the musical.

This year’s club con- sisted of nine members. The offi- cers were as follows: President, Judy Refeld; Vice President, Howie Fickel; Secretary, Susie McClain; and Treasurer, Geoff Perry. The advisors of the Sci- ence Club are Mr. Tom Kostoh- ryz and Mr. Leroy Truesdell. A trip to Mammoth Cave, Ken- tucky, was planned for May but was not approved by the Logan School Board.

It has a very informal type of club format with no officers and no formal membership. Anyone who is interested may drop in and par- ticipate in the meeting. The club usually gets together on Wednesday afternoons to watch a video-taped Star Trek episode and then discuss how it relates to our lives now. Mem- bers may also discuss science fiction books they have read or some of the current science fic- tion films. Star Trek was a prime-time TV show back in the sixties. It was taken off the air in 1968 and syndicated. Since then, its popu larity has become so wide-spread that it is shown in thirteen coun- tries and has been translated into seven different languages. According to the show's creator. Gene Roddenberry, the amazing appeal of Star Trek is mainly due to its optimistic outlook of man’s future.

Mem- bers are involved in many well- known projects such as the annual Homecoming Dance, which is held in honor of the Homecoming Queen. This dance is open to all LHS students and is decorated according to a theme. This year’s theme was You Light Up My Life. Another well- known annual project is the LHS Easter Assembly, which is plan- ned and performed by the Y- Teen members themselves. Usu- ally there is a little Easter Sur- prise,” for everyone to enjoy, during the assembly. One big project which turned out to be very successful was the float that was made along with Jay-Teens for the Christmas parade. They built a sleigh-like figure on a wagon bed and dressed up like different types of children’s toys in keeping with the theme of Teens in Toy- land. The float won second place and received one hundred dollars which was divided between the two participating clubs. Along with being an active school club, Senior Y-Teens is active in community service pro- jects. One very helpful project which they would like to make an annual event is a Bowl A Thon for the Heart Fund. Each partici- pating girl gets sponsors to pledge so much money for each point bowled. After the money is collected, it is all turned over to the Heart Fund. Except for having a new advi- sor, Mrs. Peterson, Y-Teens hasn’t really changed a whole lot. Because of all the successful projects, Y-Teens has become a much respected club.

The club collected $100 for the Muscular Dystrophy Founda- tion. Also, along with the Senior Y-Teens, they constructed a float for the Christmas parade which won second place. Prize money was divided by the two clubs. Jay-Teens hold their meetings every first and third Thursday of the month. At the end of each meeting refreshments are pre- pared and enjoyed by the mem- bers. Leaders for Jay-Teens this year were: Tisa Berry, President; Judy Fisher, Vice-President; Deb Sampson, Secretary; and Trina Sparks, Treasurer. Their advisor was Mr. Craig Nixon. On May 15 at the annual Stu- dent Council Awards Assembly Tisa Berry and Diane Mason were named outstanding Jay- Teens of the year.

The Spanish club is interested in the culture, lives and language of the South Americans. They, and all members of Logan's Spanish class, make projects depicting Spanish life. A few of these projects are selected to display with projects from other southeastern Ohio schools at the annual Language Fair held at Ohio schools at the annual Lan- guage Fair held at Ohio Univer- sity. Projects consist of dances and folksinging, wall hangings, paintings, models and artwork. This year was the second time we won first place among the schools teaching two languages. Afterwards the displays were brought back to the school library for display. The Spanish club has had several parties this year.

Parlez-Vous Fran ais? French Club is a club open to any student who takes French as a subject. Although the club was not very active, members did do a few interesting things. The most successful thing they did was have a French Din- ner. Each member attending made at least one food from the French culture. There was a wide variety of good food to choose from like hors-doeuvres, soups, main meat dishes, desserts and drinks. The club, also, at a few of their meetings, tried making French foods for their enjoyment like crapes which is a paper thin, pancake-like food that can be filled with fruit, meat, vegeta- bles or anything else you like.

The club is an all boys organiza tion. The members of the club are considered to be leaders in the community and in the school. The main purpose of Key Club is to serve the school, the community and the church. The activities of the club include rid- ing in a bike-a-thon for the cystic fibrosis foundation and sponsor- ing a glaucoma clinic. The Key Club is sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club. They are both international organizations and their main goal is to serve oth- ers. FAR LEFT: Denny Ellinger takes time out to phone a friend.

The four boys who competed were Mark Tucker, Keith Stemen, Jeff Sharb and Mark Hartman; their advisor was Mr. George Tipton. Although they were defeated in their first game by Whetstone of Columbus and did not com- pete again this year, the team still practiced at least once a week. Before their game the boys would practice three times a week. During each practice they would go through boxes of questions trying to gather as much knowledge as possible. All this work should make next year a banner year. RIGHT: A lot of the questions asked of the In The Know team are derived from encyclopedias.

Members spend a great deal of time developing fund-raising projects with the money being spent on an employer-employee banquet at the close of the school year. They also conduct a civic project for the local community as well as compete in national, state and local events. During October DECA is involved in several district con- tests. These include the Fall Del- egates Conference, Miss Ohio DECA and the Parliamentary Procedure Contest. At the Fall Delegates Conference there is a district chairperson elected who is president of all DECA Clubs in this area. There is also a recorder elected to represent all DECA Clubs in the district. Brid- gette Brandon received honora- ble mention at the Miss Ohio DECA Conference. Dave Emer- son was second in the district and thirteenth in Southeastern Ohio in parlimentary procedure. In February, DECA members enter the state competitive events and series contest. This contest offers approximately twenty-eight events. Some of these include tests, putting on a display, public speaking and team management and decision making. Christy Shriner was sec- ond in the district for invest- ments, Scott Poston was second in the district for business vocabulary, Steve Helber received honorable mention for public speaking, and Paula Klinger received honorable men- tion for sales demonstration. The national level for this com- petition takes place in May. Leading DECA this year were Bridgette Brandon, president; Christy Shriner, vice-president; Paula Klinger, secretary; Steve Helber, treasurer; Kelly Lehman, recorder-historian; and Scott Poston, parliamentarian. Activities 193 Chess Club Captures the Kings If you think chess is an easy game to play and understand, you're wrong. It takes a good mind, sense of strategy, and complete concentration. The game consists of sixteen men: eight pawns and eight pieces. Each of two players has a set of men consisting of a king, a queen, two bishops, two knights, and two rooks or castles. In playing chess the main goal is to capture the opposing play- er’s king. When captured, the opposing player usually gives notice by saying, check. If the other player can not save his king from being captured, he is checkmated. The LHS Chess Club meets on Thursday nights after school to challenge fellow members to a ?ame of chess. The LHS Chess lub is having difficulty finding outside competition, since most schools in this district no longer have a club. The Chess Club hopes to grow in the future and to find schools to challenge and overcome. FAR RIGHT: Even though Deena Azbell has lots of homework, she still finds time to play chess.

To clear up all misinformation, the media room can be found beside Mr. Killoran's office in the shop room. It’s a very small place that stores projectors, movies, tape recorders, projec- tor reels, and viewers. Mrs. Hol- ley works on correlating all the materials and distributing them via the audio visual gang. All of the kids enjoy their job, except for dusting and cleaning the audio visual room, maybe because they can watch a small television or listen to a radio when they have nothing else to do.

Members of the LHS Marching Band are not required to participate in these programs but dedicated mem- bers enjoy getting twice the amount of experience and pleas- ure out of being in these groups. The Dance Band consisted of twenty-two members and was divided into four basic sections. There were seven saxophones, five trombones, six trumpets, and four members of the rhythm section. The rhythm section included a pianist, a drummer, and two bass players. This year the Dance Band performed at the Junior High Scholarship Ban- quet, the Lions Club Sweetheart Dance and the Annual Band Con- cert. Two of the most popular songs played by the Dance Band were “Sixteen Bars of Blues and Chameleon. When asked what the benefits of Dance Band were, one of the members rep- lied, Since each part is sepa- rate, one must learn to have self- confidence and the pride to pre- pare your part well.” The Pep Band provides an enthusiastic means of support for the basketball team. The sixty-five members were divided into two bands, the Purple Band and the White Band. Each band is like a minature marching band with flutes, clarinets, alto horns, trumpets, alto and tenor saxo- phones, baritones, trombones, and sousaphones. Some of the favorite songs played by the Pep Band were ‘‘Long Train” and Mickey Mouse.” DANCE BAND FRONT ROW: Sarah Howdy shell, Jane Ann Devol, Valeri Conley, Jeff North, Greg Daugherty, David Riley, Jan Smith, Christy Walter, Steve Maniskas, Jamie Moore.

It was a long drive from Pomeroy, Ohio to Columbus where he was studying merchandising. His father had raised him in Pomeroy in a business much the same as Elberfeld's today. From his childhood experiences he became full of fire and ready to start a business of his own. After reaching the mid-point between Pomeroy and Colum- bus, it was dinner time, and Logan s offering of well-known restaurants made it easy for them to enjoy a fine repast. During this November day, Mr. Elberfeld met a Mrs. Warner. He later came to realize he could rent a small room in Logan from her in which he could start a business. It was located where the pres ent-day Cut and Curl Beauty Salon is. This was the origin of the Elberfeld's Department Store. , . He continued school and went to Harvard Business School to finish his work. Meanwhile the clothing store was a booming success. His prosperity along with attitude and ambition sparked his continuous need for expansion, one point Mr. Elberfeld was considering a chain of stores; however, stability came his way when, in 1927. atter much negotiation and searching, he purchased the present day lot. Clothing selection was permitted to expand until it occupied the area where furniture is today. His ambition found no rest as later the basement and second floor were added. Many new items were added such as furniture, carpet, appliances, and electronics. Throughout the years he conducted a valuable resource to the community of Logan. , , Persistence must have been the key to success, and in 1963, a new addition was added. The annex was devoted to clothing thus allowing furniture to expand to the point where it became the most popular item. Then, in 1974, a parking lot was added for the convenience of the people wishing to patronize the department store. As far as plans for the future go, Mr. Elberfeld feels satisfied with his present day business and wishes only tor, time to move more slowly. • Sales All Year Round • Top Quality Merchandise • Fast Service Open Friday 9:00 to 9:00 Other Week Days 9:00 to 5:30 Stay on top in fashions from Elberfelds. 79 W.

Logan High School has gone through numerous changes since it was built in 1910, most of which were necessary to alleviate overcrowding. Additions were made to the building in 1932 and 1937. Meanwhile, a separate junior high structure was built, just west of the high school. Central Grade School was then built between the junior and senior high build- ings. Thus, the site of our present school complex once housed three separate buildings. Central Grade School was torn down, and the junior high section of the present building became a reality in 1958. The elementary grades were then moved to where the junior high had been. Within our memory, in 1974, the new cafeteria was added, connecting Central to the junior and senior high. As students of LHS we sometimes find that, like the physical structure itself, our lives become cluttered and crowded with people and the problems they cause. We, too, must expand to accommodate all that is required of us. We might be forced to sacrifice pre- cious hours of time, thereby enlarging our circle of friends and acquaintances. A few of our experiences are unpleas- ant, but the process of rebuilding after- wards aids our growth and makes us stronger individuals. Frequently, it will seem as though we are not one individual, but a number of separate entities, each in a different place, just as there were once three dif- ferent schools. Decisions, though, are a necessary ' part of life, and we must make them if we want to continue growing. LHS is now one long unit combined with the junior high and Central Elemen- tary School. It is whole and complete. As individuals, we can only strive for completeness. It is unattainable, but we should never lose sight of it as a goal. Repairs and changes are constantly being made in the school complex. We, too, should be aware of ourselves and make changes and revisions when and where they are needed. Although it is not always good, change can sometimes be what is needed to make us stimulating and happy individu- als. ABOVE: Logan High School as it looked in 1920.

(Hultiuating Nrui Jntrrrsta It is quite easy to become so wrapped up in the here and the now — with that which one already knows — that a facade is built up: an impregnable barrier of fear and self satisfaction that prevents anything new or the least bit adventuresome from coming in contact with us Once built tq , this wall is almost impossible to break down. It is only through constant exercise of our minds and exposure to the new and different that construction of this faCade may be prevented A wide variety of possibilities for self expansion was available throughout the year, allowing students and staff alike to ward off the evil of mental stagnation. The opportunities open to us varied from a French dinner where culinary skills could be learned and practiced, to a day at the Ohio Press Club Clink in Columbus where four nalistk techniques were taught and awards given for out standing journalists. In between were field trips to muse urns to experience others' creativity, the Language Fair at Ohio University for utilization of our foreign language knowledge, contests in both vocal and instrumental dtvi sions for the musically inclined to test their abilities, and various clubs to participate in, each offering its own mdivtd ualized source of knowledge and experiences Active participation was abounding in all. and the horror of a constant, boring, never changing life was successfully evaded The exciting collage of hobbies and happenings was enioyed thoroughly There was none of that humdrum con tmuum of a monotone existence, only |oy and happiness at the chance to broaden one s scope 234 Cultivating New Interests 1.

Males, trying to appear the strong, masculine type, amble up to a girl and force themselves to blurt out the words, ‘Would you go to the Prom with me?” And of course the girl, who has been waiting with expectation for what seems like AGES — just knowing that no one would ask her to the Prom — tries to appear nonchalent and cod. She wants to play hard to get, but no sooner does her prospective date spit out his clumsy invitation than she fairly well screams “YES!” And it is officially in progress — those weeks of grueling work for the juniors in preparing the Prom and Senior Banquet, and the endless days lying between the seniors and their final shared happiness — Prom weekend. The closeness of the occasion may be felt by all. A sort of com- radeship develops between juniors and seniors — formerly bitter enemies. The talk in the hall- way is all of the Prom — “Whom are you tak ing?“ and “What are you wearing?” — echoes through the halls. It's obvious something big is about to happen, and when May 19 rolls around — along with the Senior Banquet — emotions climax. This — one of their few remaining get togethers — is a very special time for the seniors. They laugh in unison at themselves as the class Will and Pro- phesy are read. Their rowdy exterior is evidently a cover-up, belying their true emotions. Now IT is here — the event everyone has worked for and struggled toward for eternities. It” is the Prom — that fantastic, elegant, and awesomely final dance. Although smiles are on everyone's faces and there is a brotherhood between all attending, a sadness lies hidden under the happiness, the melancholia that comes with an ending. And this is an ending: it is the last of such fantastic happenings for the seniors, it is the climax to months of work for the juniors, and it is for all a good bye to another school year filled with new friendships and old. This is it, the beginning of the end. The beauty has been appreciated and the work excit- ing. but it’s over — the last sharing of happi ness for another school year. Prom Weekend 237 “Today we are like the leaves of spring — just beginning to grow. Tomorrow we will be like the leaves of fall — changing colors and scattered to the wind.” This was the motto cho- sen by the class of 1978, and it suited them perfectly for when they had graduated, it was just the beginning of a new phase in their lives. Now it was time to break away from the conform- ity of school and start to look toward their own styles and interests in life, whether it meant going on to college, finding a job, or even getting married. It didn’t really matter. The important thing was to venture out into the world and discover what would be right for them. Then with the passage of time and searching of souls each graduate would begin to transform into his own unique personality and find his own niche in the world. Graduation is the signal that it is time to move on in life, time to ven- ture out. 1. For Teena Smith graduation was a very sad occasion. 2. Graduation is not the end, but the beginning. 3.
