Paul Veronie Giulietta Vitale David Voss Ann Ward PREPARING FOR THE END AND A NEW BEGINNING Although the seniors graduated in lune preparations began many months before. During the summer Seniors ventured into portrait studios around town. Later they were faced with the task of deciding which picture or pictures they wanted. Soon after school started they submitted their picture to the Spiderweb in which they were recognized in the color section dedicated to Seniors. In October they were measured for their caps and gowns and if they wished they could buy extra souvenir tassles. Also in the fall Seniors ordered 'tnouncements for the big event. During their senior year students were suddenly swamped with mail from colleges. After deciding on one to four schools many Seniors anxiously filled out college applications. While waiting eagerly an answer many Seniors had the chance to visit the campus ofa preferred college. Some students were able to attend lectures given by a representative from an area school such as Quincy College Beloit Iowa State or Cornell. After all the applica- forms ACT scores etc. Seniors may have applied for various scholar- shi s. Ajfter thirteen years of schooling hopefully these Seniors can loo back and credit MHS for teaching a little more than math Englis science or history. KOH! And don t forget European Handballll With diploma in hand and caps flying through the air they finally graduat- ed. With a lot of smiles and a few tears they couldn t believe that it was over. But really their lives have just begun. Look out world HERE THEY COME!

For the most part, the grads of '86 are avid sup- porters of sports whether they participated or were spectators. Some of this year's best players are Tonye Amochree, Roman Bor- met, and Max Ford, who were selected for the Illinois All Conference Football Teamg Mah Margenthaler, who made all confer- ence basketballp and Melanie Gibbs, who was a state qualifier in tennis. When asked what they achieved by partici- pating in a team sport, many senior players said that meeting new people, making friends, improving their game, and having the thrill of winning were probably the best things they got out of sports. They also learned that being on a team, no matter which one, in- volves a lot of work, pain and time. Although the class of 86's player-partici- pation has dropped over the years, the crowd support has been consistent and positive. With football and basketball being the big- gest crowd drawers, the senior fans have been there to cheer on all the players at home and away games. The seniors have also attended the less recognized sports, knowing what their players needed to give their all. The spectators really boosted mo- rale tor all sports and kept the players giving 100'Ma. xx LJ Seniors

i ,Ax wwf 0,3 jill Wilson Darlene Wingo Alan Woefly Marli Woolam ,ff THREE YEARS JUST WASN'T ENOUGH There are few seniors who have chosen to follow their stud- ies of Mathematics and a Foreign Language to their fourth year. Craig Bishop, Earl Collins, Tim Conley, lim Harding, lim Mitchell, Toby Powell, and lohn Savage are the first stu- dents to take Calculus here. Mr. Helm is tackling the problems of teaching a new class while his young pioneers open their minds to the wonderful world of Calculus. Composed of only three stu- dents, Spanish IV shares the classroom with Spanish Ill, Darcy Rexroat, Pankaj Gupta, and Cassy Taylor are always eager to help Mr, Kruzan teach the other students. French IV, the largest of the three classes, is not over- crowded, but the students have more of a chance to interact with Mrs. Leland than they may have had with the larger French ll and Ill classes.
