Manchester High School One Squire Drive North Manchester, IN 46962 Crest 1988, Volume 28 OPENING 1 The 1987-88 school year was a year of differences. A new principal, vice principal, and several new teachers filled empty positions. For the first time students had to make up days missed because of fog and snow. Freshmen and Juniors had to take ISTEP tests to measure their knowledge and to decide who would be going to summer school. The boys’ basketball team made it to regionals and was narrowly defeated in overtime. Manchester High School was evaluated by the North Central Associaton, so for several days strangers wandered the halls and listened in on classes. Students voiced their frustration about the slow teacher-contract negotiations and staged a sit-in. Although everyday activities remained the same at Manchester High School, these events and changes made a unique and memorable year. -9 thinh the teachers and coaches mahe the difference at Wanchester JJigh School.

Students in every department are now able to use computers. 2 OPENING Kelly McKee practices her saxophone solo for the Indiana State Solo and Ensemble Contest. Many members of the band chose to take part in this challenging competition. Towering over the photographer Jason Groninger looks at Manchester High School from a unique perspective. Original outlooks of an average school day make the difference for many students. The sophomore boys’ Physical Education class displays their tumbling ability. The unit on gymnastics is only one of many varied activities the class participates in. An All-American teacher. Mr. Pritchard joins in sectional spirit and dresses up for beach day. Many teachers joined their students in supporting the basketball team's hope for a sectional victory. OPENING 3 Greg Michel and Jeff Michel take a break from Agriculture class. MHS offers a variety of classes for those students inter- ested in farming. Karla Frantz con- firms that Mrs. Air- good has a real rea- son for going home. Mrs. Airgood. the at- tendance officer, also takes the time to nurse sick students. Erin Trowbridge and Rachel Landrum pose in lab glasses and aprons. Mr. Meyer gets teased about the chemistry classes, but students enjoy them. Andrea Jones be- comes an Indian squaw on Cowboys and Indians day dur- ing sectional week. Student support cheered the basket- ball team to victory. Sabrina Daniel cuts open her worm for a closer look during Bi- ology II. Dissection is only one of the many fun things this class enjoys. Chuck Goodrich is surprised as Mr. Gil- bert helps him with a paper. The English teachers are always available to help struggling students. Mrs. Sponseller dis- plays her cowgirl look to prove that she’s a loyal Squire fan. Many teachers were filled with spirit dur- ing sectional week. The most exciting part about sectionals was definitely Sing- piel’s buzzer shot for the sec- tional crown. - Kelli Underwood The sit-in was a good way to express our rights and the way we felt about the contracts, but it was starting to get out of hand. - Theresa Bur ns worth This year is different from oth- er years because I’m king of the hill and can mess with the fresh- men’s minds.’’ - Lonnie Harmon When we helped at the guys' swim meet Missi and I always tried to look through the little hole into the guy’s locker room.” - Prudence Plank 4 OPENING My best memory from a club was when S.A.D.D. went to the H.A.D.D. rally and met ’Buddy’ from the movie Hoosiers. - Gina Kelly This year the administration is trying to work with the stu- dents. and keep them informed. We don’t feel as much like pri- soners. • Peggy Eller ISTEP testing was a waste of time. A test like that doesn’t prove anything. How hard you work to get your grades is what matters. ’’ - Haley Groninger A really embarrassing moment was when our cheerleading squad did a pyramid and we all fell. I'm sure the other team got a good laugh. ” -DeAnna Wion OPENING 5 At Homecoming this year the videos added more excitement to the dance, but the judges chose the wrong float for first place. - Nick Gray My best memory from French club is from when we went out to eat and our entire table made music by rubbing on the crystal glasses. - Deanna Asher ”One of the funniest times this year was when Sabe Vale gave my address to some guys from Maconaquah and they came to my houser - Jodi Beck ”When Manchester beat Whitco at sectional, it wasn't just the fact that we won. it was the fact that Whitco lost. ” ■ Lori Dickover 6 OPENING Sunshine Club spon- sors Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Sponseller work with Steph Schuler in planning the Ideal La- dies Tea. a party hon- oring ideal women of the community. The Sunshine Club voted Steph Schuler Sweetheart Queen, despite rumors that the Sweetheart Dance might be cancelled due to contract nego- tiations. Like many band members. Shawn Yeakle is attentive and eager. Sha wn came up with an orig- inal hat for Spirit Week. David Harting. like many others, celeb- rates basketball en- thusiam with his out- rageous toga. Strange outfits were normal during sectional week. Having a handful of students allows Mrs. Smith to spend more individual time with them. Here she helps two of her students with their spelling. During their study halls many students find the library a qui- et place to study. John Baker finds it a place to relax while doing a hard assign- ment. Mr. Metzger's class works balancing led- ger sheets. This expe- rience makes a differ- ence when students start careers. What makes this year differ- ent? I’m a senior. That makes all the difference to mel - Chris Howard The funniest moment during the gymnastics season was when Rachel Landrum imitated superman over the vault in a meet. - Mike Pelphrey Being a small school does have its advantages, like knowing practically every body I You're not just a number, here you’re a person. ” - Megan Inskeep The best part of regional was the way the community support- ed the team. I think that was why the team did so well. - Eric Christiansen OPENING 7 The MHS Class of 91 shows their “Squire- Pride' at a pep ses- sion for Region a Is. School spirit was at a high during the 1987- 88 school year. Appropriately dressed in red. black and white.

There was excellent music and great decorationsl” - Jeff McClure The funniest thing happened this year when Matt Meyer. Jeff Felgar and Todd Hodson pulled Gary Beery’s swimsuit off.” - Matt Snell 8 OPENING Compared to other schools, our school is small so teachers and students basically all know each other. That V the difference! - Jennifer Williams ISTEP testing was great be- cause it made getting a seat on the vocational bus a lot easier for us seniors. ” - Mark Slone The difference at Manchester is they always refund your money here even if it is only a quarter. ” - Anna Shenefield My favorite class is World His- tory because whenever the bas- ketball team won. we didn't have to worry about a quiz for awhile. - Nick Boebe OPENING 9 SH0IN3S 01 O UVJ OJ OJ l”m9 tu 66dj, v u ns Sony btJ!a yktrr jCori 'JbiiLovr Slurry IbinytM £ • • -2 ion SENIORS 11 c L A S S O F 8 8 T)rac y Druill CLut CfOoJrUl jConni� JJarm 4 JJ. a99 QooJ KanJy Jiojtin {Jari AJAlon SLtlfy .Utrtndttn -Aaron .iJipptmltt ----------- - .

Although the night of the fish fry was rainy, a lot of people turned out for the meal of fish, baked beans, cole slaw and ice cream. Seniors worked all kinds of jobs during the night, from breading fish to serving coffee and water, until finally it was time to clean up. Under the able direction of Mr. Enyeart, the fish fry was once again a suc- cess. Steff Carter and Bridgett Davis keep careful count of the profits which will help pay for their senior trip. While Kelly McKee and Melissa Borg aren't reluctant to get their hands dirty. Sandy Howard keeps hers clean. Distributing the extra fish. Matt Meyer and Kacy Trick guarantee the promise all the fish you can eat. Melissa Borg and Heidi Renz are ready when the crowd gets a second wind and room for extra fish. SENIORS 17 Friends Jodi Reed, Gina Kelley and escorts leave with smiling faces and lifetime memories. Jodi Beaver and Jeff McClure sneak off to a cozy corner to be alone. Heidi Doudt's escort sweeps her off her feet during a slow ballad. Haley Groninger and Matt Snell enjoy the view from the gazebo. Prudence Plank, Melissa Borg, and escorts pose inside the con- servatory. The couples here enjoy one of the many slow songs. Greg Good andSabe Vale dance the night a way. 18 PROM A group of tired dancers rests beneath the refreshing waterfall. PROM High uncomfortable heels, tight choking neckties, stiff unmoveable hair, and circu- lation stopping cummer- bunds are all worthwhile “When I Think of You.” When I Think of You '7 think our junior class did a really good job on this year's prom and I hope next year’s juniors can do just as well,” stated Wendy Jones The 1988 Junior-Senior prom, “When I Think of You,” was definitely a big success. The prom was held at the Botanical Gardens Conservatory in Fort Wayne, an ideal spot for a romantic evening. In the warm spring air, couples were treated to moonlit carriage rides through downtown Fort Wayne. Smiling couples had their pictures snapped in front of jungle-like scenes to retain memories of this year’s prom. The DJ. Jeff Davis of radio sta- tion WMEE. successfully pleased all in attendance by combining various kinds of music to satisfy ev- eryone's style. Couples especially enjoyed the ro- mantic atmosphere of dancing on the open terrace. PROM 19 Into the Future Graduation night saw over 100 seniors participate in the gradua- tion ceremony. Males robed in black and females in red walked to their chairs accompanied by the sounds of the MHS band. Sonja James gave the invocation. The audience was greeted by Andy Wible. Bridgett Davis and Kacy Trick gave short speeches. The salutatori- am Lori Zimmerman, and valedictorian, Steff Carter, also spoke. The benediction was given by Peggy Eller. Lori Dickover, Jenny Freder- ick. Tracy Eubank and Sandy Howard are proud graduates. Chuch Goodrich can now re- flect on his time at MHS and laugh with Dr. Eckert. Carrie Lancaster's and Kacy Trick's academic excellence is recognized at graduation. Mark Anderson and Any Gem- mer wear smiles of relief as they take their seats in the gym. 20 GRADUATION Several students work on the set for the spring musical. Lori Leckrone and Gina Fausnight prac- tice the music from a scene in “The Sound of Music. ” Kelly McKee and Todd Robinson practice their wedding march. Elementary stu- dents were their “children.” Cast Kelly McKee (Maria Rainer) Gina Fausnight (Mother Abbess) Barb Scheerer (Sister Berthe) Lori Leckrone (Sister Margarette) Carmen Beery (Sister Sophia) Todd Robinson (Captain Von Trapp) Bobbi Leckrone (Liesl) Kerry Ashton (Friedrich) Sarah Borg (Louisa) John Lehman (Kirt) Kelly Walter (Brigitta) Angela Lehman (Marta) Heidi Yoder (Gretel) Mike Barbour (Rolf Gruher) Sonya Yoder (Elsa Schraeder) Tom Sizemore (Max Detweiler) David Wright (Herr Zeller) Scott Shively (Admiral Von Schreiber) Andy Person (Baron Elberfeld) Jim Smith (Priest) The following were the nuns: Kelly Ashton.

With the dramatic increase of students and faculty taking up the practice of genuflecting, walking with hands pressed together as if in prayer, and singing in Latin, it would seem as if Manchester High School had been targeted by the Vatican City as its next missionary field. The reason for the strange “habits” taken up by so many at MHS was the presentation of The Sound of Music. Many hours of hard work and prepara- tion went into the production of this superb musi- cal. A large cast and crew spent many weeks and hours preparing music, lines, costumes, and sets which dazzled the audiences who attended the performances. SPRING MUSICAL 21 Weeks of hard work pay off for the cast who took time out of a re- hearsal for a publicity shot. Don Grayson (Shawn Yeakle) and his wife Sally (Carmen Beery) argue over Sally's decision of testifying. SUSPENSE! Fall Play Bear Witness featured nine MHS students in the exciting James Reach drama. The play is set in a middle-class neighborhood some twenty years ago. It opens when Sally Gray- son (played by Carmen Beery) witnesses a brutal murder just down the street. Sally faces a tough moral decision, to testify or not to testify against the killer she recognizes to be her sister-in-law (Eris Migliorini) ’s boyfriend Nicky Sharp (Randy Hef- lin) . Despite small audiences on both nights, the cast, crew, and all involved made this year’s play a big success. Charletta Wion and Sonya Yoder di- rected the performances. 22 FALL PLAY Tom Airgood AJ Bailey Ledford Benton Jerry Bolinger Jo Ann Byers Pam Cooksey i Faculty There were three new additions to the teaching staff this year: Jerry Bolinger (woods drafting). Elizabeth Dowden (English) and Jean Zimmer- man (home economics). While these three were gained, one very special teacher served his last year: Phil En- yeart. Mr. Enyeart retired after 31 im- pressive years of teaching at Man- chester High School. In P.E. I was too scared to do a back walkover don 't laugh! Then. Mrs. Davenport showed me how to do it and told me she knew I could. Know what ? I did it!” ■ Megan Inskeep Jody Davenport Elizabeth Dowden Phil Enyeart Bob Gilbert Susan Klingler Keith Metzger Debbie Miller Dick Miller Jim Myer Dave Pritchard Richard Shepherd Vicki Smith Richard Sparrow Kay Sponseller Edith Stone Harvey Underwood Bill White Jean Zimmerman FACULTY 23 Jill Hodson and Barb Betten practice CPR and artificial respi- ration during health class. All sophomores are required to take one semester of health. Mr. Myer tries to strangle Bill Grossnickle after a trying day with the periodic table. Actual murders were uncommon, but threats by Mr. Myer were familiar, though usually ignored. School doesn 'tget everyone down, as shown here by Chris Clark, who doesn't seem to mind doing his homework. This attitude is shared by few at Manchester. 24 ACADEMICS Many options available at Manchester Academic Advantage When many people remember their high school years, they think of friends, basketball games or field trips. Though the classes are the most important part of high school, rarely do students remember the math or English classes first. While some stu- dents forget the importance of classes, it is continually emphasized by all the teachers and most try their best to get good grades in each class. Manchester High School offers all kinds of classes - from English to agriculture. Students can take art or music, can goof off in one or two study halls, or can enroll in seven solid sub- jects. The wide range of classes avail- able makes it easier for everyone to get a few electives in what they enjoy along with the required courses. Stu- dents can also earn quarter credits by serving as aides to teachers and the staff. A lot of students take ad- vantage of the zero-period option, which offers a class from 7:15 to 8:05 and lets those involved leave the school after 6th period. Some students who wish to work faster in English en- roll in the Honors English class. The atmosphere in a class such as this is more conducive to class discussion be- cause of the few number of students. Students who needed more individual instruction could take part in the Learning Disabled classes. With more attention, these students are better equipped to do their best work. This year Mr. Smith experimen- ted with the final exam schedule, try- ing to allow plenty of time for the stu- dents to study. All the math and En- glish classes took their exams at the same time, so teachers and students could get them out of the way. Stu- dents appreciated the breaks between exams. Due to a new state la w. all freshmen and juniors are now required to take the IS- TEP test. Here. Todd Robinson finishes his test while Matt Rife waits quietly for time to be called. Freshmen Teresa Martin. Steph Meeks, and Amy Lehman combine their efforts at the computer. One semester of com- puter literacy. taught by Mr. Sparrow, is required of all freshmen. ACADEMICS 25 Dressed for a Drama assignment, Colleen Yeakle prepares for a lip sync. Shaving to Shakespeare The English department at MHS consists of Kay Sponseller, Susan Klingler. Deb Miller, Shelley Walgamuth (with Peg Gilbert as her sub), Pete Jones. Bob Gilbert, and Jo Ann Buyers. The classes taught include language, literature, composition, creative writing, drama, and journalism. New to the English department this year was Elizabeth Dowden who replaced Jane Bales. The juniors in Mrs. Sponseller’s American Lit classes studied such novels as Huckleberry Finn and the Grapes of Wrath. Most classes studied some Shakespearean plays which were enhanced later in the year when the Indianapolis Shakespeare Festival came to the high school to perform ex- cerpts and famous lines from about five plays. Sophomores learned the art of public speaking as they gave a wide variety of speeches ranging from show- ing someone how to pole vault to demonstrating how to give a crewcut - with a live subject! The freshmen were introduced to the much loved Basic Skills while the sophomores, ideally, were finishing theirs. Juniors and seniors were constantly reminded of the importance of finishing Basic Skills in order to receive a Manchester diploma. A majority of students had at least one En- glish class, and many felt as Linda Sturtsman does. “My favorite class is English because it’s not just work. We have a lot of fun while we are learning and that makes us remember it more.” 26 ENGLISH Angie Baker and members of her class relax in En- glish with their sunglasses and towel during spirit week. Mrs. Sponseller joins in the spirit week madness by dressing up as a mon- ster. Mrs. Sponseller gives last minute instructions to her students before allowing them off the bus for their field trip.

All students take a year or two of math and learn different levels of difficulty such as learn- ing to multiply fractions in Alge- bra I then doing proofs in Geome- try. For the second year the de- partment held a Math Field Day. Students competed in math games such as hex and rapid tran- sit. Not only was it fun for the students, but several also won prizes. Math students pay close attention to the processes of the math assign- ment. Miss Stone frowns at Jeff Michel and Shannon Howard, but since it s a good day she won ’t stay angry long. Math Soon to cast aside the fading stars of the ath- letic teams, math stars take the prize in the second Math Field Day.

Varied Classes and Teachers Create . . . Science Excitement! Many students turned to science this year as a way to relieve them- selves of the boredom of the usual math and English classes. Jim Meyer and Harvey Underwood are two unusual science teachers who spice up the scho- lastic lives of their students. Mr. Underwood teaches Biology and Biology II. Biology, required for all sophomores, gave students a chance to learn about cells, DNA. and dissec- tion. Biology II included gathering leaves and collecting bugs, plus dissection of animals from a starfish to a fetal pig. A new addition to the biology room was the boa constrictor. All biology students were fortunate enough to hear Mr. Underwood’s daily jokes. Mr. Meyer teaches Chemistry and Physics to eager upperclassmen. Stu- dents memorized formulas and learn the periodic table, but the relationship between Mr. Meyer and his students makes the class worthwhile, according to Wendy Steller. “My favorite class is Physics because of the constant amusing bickering between Mr. Meyer and Chuck Goodrich.” Row 1: Bob Novak.

SCIENCE 31 32 SOCIAL STUDIES Rachel Landrum works on her U.S History as- signment. Mr. Jones talks to Heidi Doudt and Andrea Jones, two history students. Mr. Shepherd checks on his students to make sure they’re completing their work. The Social Studies Department includes three teachers: Bob Gilbert, Pete Jones, and Dick Shepherd. All students go through this depart- ment at some time since seniors must pass gov- ernment taught by Mr. Gilbert and juniors must pass U.S. History taught by Mr. Jones and Mr. Shepherd. Mr. Gilbert also teaches world history, a class that covers the history of the world from primitive times to World War II. Mr. Shepherd is in charge of geography and tries to teach his students to tell the difference between India and Spain. Mr. Jones is famous for his map quizzes and essay tests, not to mention all of his stories. SOCIAL STUDIES Exposing students to the nation and world beyond the town limits SOCIAL STUDIES 33 Business The Business Department at Manches- ter High School consists of the following teachers: Keith Metzger, Led Benton, Debbie Miller, and Richard Shepherd. Together, they prepare students for the business world by teaching them typing, shorthand, accounting, introduction to business, and business law. Students enrolled in a business course have the option of belonging to the Future Business Leaders of America. A typing class works hard to type business letters. Begin- ning typists also learn to for- mat tables. Carrie Wagoner works on some homework. Most students find that the key to perfecting writing skills is the ability to con- centrate. 34 BUSINESS After getting the basics down in the first semester, typing students work at their own pace.

This year the Spanish classes were priv- ileged to go on two field trips to see Spanish plays. Spanish students learn verb tenses, grammar and vocabulary with the hope that someday they will be able to speak and un- derstand the language. Pam Cooksey teaches Spanish I through IV. She is assisted by Jo Ann Byers, who teaches classes of Spanish I. An example of what Senora Cooksey has her classes do was a Spanish III project. Students got into small groups and made up short skits, conducted in Span- ish, which were videotaped by the AV department. All Spanish students have the chance to join the Spanish Club. This year the club put on a Spanish Car- nival, with games, prizes, and Mexican food. Club membbers also ate out at Chi- Chi’s. Spanish posters and pinatas enlivened the Spanish room. Janine Schall is learning Spanish because she wants to go to a place like Acapulco someday. Row 1: L. McKinley, S. Vale, J. Bazzoni, S. Carter, L. Platt. J. Williams. A. Young. J. Hen- derson. M.

For culture day the students had food from the Sourdough Bakery, including French cheeses and croissants. French club, open to any student who has taken French, held fund raisers such as a car wash and a cake raffle to raise money for a trip to King’s Island in May, and a French dinner at Le Gourmet in Fort Wayne. French club also spon- sored a float of the Eiffel Tower for the Homecoming Parade. It was the first time the club had entered a float and was the only club float in the parade. French club president Mike Brown said “The most exciting part about French club was when we were bringing the Eiffel Tower into town for Homecoming and hit a tree and broke.” Rachel Heflin. Brian Kreps. Danna Bellows. Mike Brown, and Sonya Yoder work hard on their French float. Mrs. Walgamuth lectures about verbs while Heidi Doudt follows along in her workbook. Mrs. Walgamuth and her daugh- ter take a break from copying French exams. FRENCH 37 FITNESS MAKES THE DIFFERENCE IN A HEALTHY LIFE! In girl’s P.E.. Jody Davenport kept her classes busy with activities like aerobics, gymnastics, field hock- ey, tennis, golf, and volleyball. A study guide, skills test, and written test were a part of each unit. Along with these units were “fitness days,” Mrs. Davenport’s interpretation of torture. Three times each week, the class warmed up. then either ran laps or jumped rope to two songs. Fitness days became easier to bear as the weeks passed, and were almost fun! For incentive, Mrs. Davenport offered extra credit to anyone who ran 700 laps by the end of the semester. Boy’s P.E. was instructed by Phil Enyeart. Even though he was finish- ing off his last year of teaching, he didn’t slack off in stressing the impor- tance of fitness for a healthful life. Robin Beery considered Mr. En- yeart’s class “a place to hone the body to perfection, a place to learn social skills, a place to swap jokes with each other, and the home of our mentor, Mr. Enyeart.” With the agility of an Olympic gymnast, Joanne Renz, assisted by Linda Sturtsman, does the splits. After a tough workout in gym, Gwen O’Dell and Amy Lehman still have enough energy to smile. 38 PHYS. ED. INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION Extra Help For Students With Varied Learning Disabilities Students referred by a teacher or a counselor to the learning disabilities department are given a series of tests. These tests, administered by a psychometrist, extensively examine and measure each student’s level of intelligence and achievement. The goal of these exams is to find discrep- ancies between what the students should know and what they actually do know. LD English and science classes are taught by Mrs. Smith. Mr. Airgood conducted the history and math courses. Not all students enrolled in LD classes are there for actual class periods. Some report to the classroom daily for a study hall in which they can receive individual help if needed. Some only go there on days they need help in a cer- tain subject. Many students are not in the LD room all day, but just for a period or two. Classes usually have 7-10 stu- dents. and about 36 students are enrolled in LD courses. As Andy Spriggs finds out. although jumping rope is great for toning muscles, it takes coordination. Three people are needed to get one person to do a handstand on the balance beam. Not only did the classes taught by Mrs. Zimmerman learn to cook various kinds of food, they also learned how to work together in sharing the results of their work. Home Economics - where education is en- hanced by help from the community Home Ec The Home Economics Depart- ment offers education that will help students with everyday life as well as in future years. Classes include health, human develop- ment, housing and interior deco- rating, and family management. The classes in this department enjoyed many field trips and ac- tivities this year. During April, human development classes car- ried flour sacks, which they treat- ed as babies, to see what it is like to have parental responsibilities. They also visited the daycare cen- ter and read to the children. At the Wabash hospital, the Human Development class toured the la- bor and delivery centers of the childbirth ward. Mrs. Metzger, of the welfare department, spoke on child abuse. One of the most pleasant activities in the food preparation classes was the sampling of treats. Carol Dooley demonstrates how to properly test food before serving it. 40 HOME ECONOMICS Freedom of Expression through Arl Known as a creative guru to many of his students, Dave Prit- chard encourages artistic expres- sion in his students through the dif- ferent modes of art available in his classes. He teaches all art classes at Manchester High School which in- clude basic art, crafts, sculpture, painting, and ceramics. For those students who have mastered many art skills already or who have a de- sire to excel in a specialized area, Mr. Pritchard can also arrange for an independent advanced study. The visible results of his clas- ses can be viewed and admired by the rest of the school in the display case outside his room. The unusual pieces which are featured range from impressionistic paintings to lifelike sculptures and pottery form- ed to resemble everyday objects. Many students were able to go on the annual field trip to an art show at St. Francis College in Ft. Wayne. An article from the display window which caught much attention of passersby in the hallway took a steady hand to put the finishing touches of paint on. The Pepsi bottle top inspired a work of art which was formed in a much larger than life proportion. _______________________________________________ Working with clay can be a frustrat- ing business if time is not taken with the final stages of the project as demonstrated by Tricia Trick. Part of the time taken up in art clas- ses is involved with the cleaning. Mr. Pritchard shows how to spruce up after a hectic hour of artistry. Steve Hunt, Erik Good, and Tricia Trick examine several drawings and examples of photography work while on a field trip to an art show. ART 41 In celebration of FFA week, many members of the club drove trac- tors to school. Mr. Sparrow uses com- puters to explain Ag principles to Kristian Gaerte and Chad Flora. While at the State Fair, a tired Matt FI inn naps on his personal pig pil- low. Agriculture Richard Sparrow teaches a variety of Vocational Ag. courses. Animal Science is an introduction to ag- riculture consisting of units in producing swine, beef, dairy, and poultry. Agriculture Structure is farm shop organization and the use of power tools. Plant Science consists of growing grains and using fertiliz- er. When enrolled in Farm Shop students learn to weld, and study plumbing and electricity on the farm. Farm Management involves how to take inven- tory and filing tax forms. Livestock and Crop Mar- keting teaches students about markets and storage advantages and disadvantages. Mr. Sparrow also leads a successful Future Farmers of America pro- gram.This year the FFA gave $500 towards the Jaws Of Life. For the first time since 1979 Manchester’s FFA livestock judging team placed first at the state judging contest. Team members were Chad Cripe. Eric Heagy, Greg Michel, and Jeff Michel.

Mr. Bol- inger taught the woods class and drafting. Mr. Bailey instructed metals. What made the industrial arts something to write home about was the teach- ing, the individual experiences, the work habits developed, and fun had in the classes. The teachers shared their knowledge of the curriculum that they were engaged in teaching. Explanation of the consequences of a faulty con- nection on the arc welder or the misuse of a band saw, for example, showed the intent to protect the students and the equipment. The teachers knew how to cut loose, however. The fun times in the woods class had to include when the group trapped Jack Rupley on the school roof. Another would be when the metals class fixed hot dogs with the torch. The time when Mr. Bai- ley’s foot was flattened by a falling fifty gallon drum ranks near the top of the list also. But let’s not forget the serious times like open book tests and an overwhelming semester exam. As Alex Kelsay, Jason Rhoades, and Jim Beery look on. Cam Kis- singer shows how to weld in metals. INDUSTRIAL ARTS 43 At the vocational school, as many lifelike situa- tions are created as possible. Sonja Yoder accli- mates herself to working under direct supervi- sion. The future homes and businesses of the world rely on the construction ability of students in schools such as this. John Baker is watched carefully while cutting a 2 X 4 at a building site. Welding is my favorite class be- cause I can do something I en- joy.” - Scott Cave Pat Taylor puts together a tasty vegetable dish. The good thing about classes such as this is that the cooks get to eat the food they prepare. While most Americans can only put gas in their cars and check fluid levels, students such as Rich- ard Meeks can make a living keeping others' cars in running order. 44 VOCATIONAL Students who go to vocational school of- ten have to sacrifice physical comfort such as warmth in order to learn a trade. Vocational School The Upper Wabash Vocational School offers stu- dents from Manchester High School and several other area schools an opportunity to spend half a day in Wabash learning career skills. The program provides learning in various vocations which include the following: welding, printing, auto mechanics, building trades, office training, food preparation, auto bodywork, and beauty cul- ture. Vocational school gives students a chance to obtain proficiency in an area that would be sufficient to get a finan- cially profitable job immediately after graduation. Students at the vocational school must still report to school in the morning for either regular academic classes or to catch the bus to the school. In order to insure that vocational students will be eligible to graduate, the high school office has planned class schedules so that needed Classes are available both in the morning and afternoon to suit the needs of these students.

There was an all girls swing choir and a quar- tet called “The Friends Choir” (pictured above). Manchester also had more students chosen for the Wabash County Honors Choir than any of the sur- rounding schools involved in it. The cadet choir and concert choirs performed four successful concerts and also sang for commence- ment. All choir associated events are directed by Car- ol Davis, choir teacher. Row 1: L. McKinley.

Band The Manchester High School band, directed by Terry McKee, had an ac- tive year that included parades, concerts, and contests. The band played for all the home football and basketball games adding cheer and encouraging the players. They also performed the half time show during football. Squirettes dazzled the crowd during basketball halftimes. In the fall the band also mar- ched in many parades and participated in the District marching contest. Indi- vidual band students took part in the Solo and Ensemble contests, both on the district and state levels. The whole band gave fall, Christmas, and spring concerts. For the first time the spring concert was held in the park gazebo. The band also played for graduation, featuring senior Kelly McKee. Several band students were in the pit band for the spring musical. Freshman Megan Inskeep explains that band is her favorite class “because the atmosphere is so relaxed and during marching season we have a pop machine in the band room. Mr. McKee also gives us lots of passes out of study hall.” Brian Kreps proves that he can handle the tough assign- ment of playing the trombone with only one hand. Trying to outdo Bobbi Leck- rone. two parents play their unusual noisemakers- pop- corn and a vacuum sweeper! BAND 49 UJ Nancy Alspaugh takes time out of a busy schedule to smile. Mr. Flora tries to fig- ure out how to fit more students in. GUIDANCE Dale Flora has put in 33 years as a guidance counselor at MHS. His responsibilities include or- ganizing and supervising tests such as ISTEP and PSAT’s. He also informs seniors of available scholarships and counsels students with names in the last half of the alphabet. Mr. Flora is kept especially busy with pre-enrollment and helping students with scheduling problems. Nancy Alspaugh has been at MHS for 3 years. She counsels all the students with names in the first half of the alphabet, talking with them about scheduling problems and future plans. Mrs. Alspaugh is in charge of scholarships, honors, and awards at Manchester. Another responsibility of Mrs. Alspaugh’s is that of Assistant Athletic Di- rector. She is in charge of all girls’ sports. 50 COUNSELORS OFFICE HELP Although being an office assistant is a lot of work, it is also fun. The responsibilities include mak- ing copies for students and teachers, answering the telephone and delivering messages. There are days when the phone rings non-stop, teachers need 25 or more copies of every page in a workbook, and there are still messages to be delivered. Even though it is fast paced work, it pays off because if forces you to learn all about the high school. Sitting: Alison Roser. Mrs. Kerr. Standing: Molly Foulke. Patti Bectold. Teresa Beeney.

She keeps track of who is absent and how many times they’ve been absent. Mrs. Airgood is also the one the stu- dents need to convince if they want to leave school. She is assisted by attendance aides who go to all the classrooms to gather the attendance papers. Mrs. Airgood also supervises the sick- room when Nurse Burchette is at another school.

AIDES 51 LIBRARY The library, headed by Miss Whited, is a good place for students to study. It is kept quiet by Miss Whited and has been invaluable for people needing information for English pa- pers. Miss Whited also helps students with in- terlibrary loans. This is done in a situation where, if our library doesn’t have enough ma- terial or a specific book, Miss Whited can get it from another institution. Miss Whited is as- sisted by the library aides, who check out books, get magazines for students, and re- shelve books. The library was also the subject of one of the improvement committees set up by Mr. Smith. Students discussed various ways to improve the library and visited other schools to get ideas. Nick Boebel relaxes in the library during study hall. 52 LIBRARY Tracy Land, Scott Andritsch, Miss Whited, David Williams, Laura Shewman, Krista Williams.

AUDIO- VISUAL Mrs. Snell’s crew of audio-visual aides is seen pushing, pulling, dragging projec- tors and recording equipment through the hallways to meet the requests of MHS teachers for a-v equipment. After being on Mrs. Snell’s waiting list for at least a year and going through an intense training course, five new stu- dents were accepted by Mrs. Snell as re- vered AV WORKERS.

Janice Hoover has a chance to rest in between trips upstairs with projectors. A.V. 53 r Andy Person, DeeDee Watson, and Rachel Fitzgerald are a few of the nurses assistants. The nurses cabinet, where livesaving as- pirin can be found. i mm Assistants Keep Busy The duties of a nurse’s assistant are varied and, depending on the health of the school, can keep an assistant busy all period. The assistants offer aspirin, take temperatures, and help the sick or tired students to bed for a 50 minute nap. Nurse Jan Burchette and Jane Ann Airgood oversee the activities of the assistants. The nurse’s assistants included Karla Frantz, Steph Schuler, Ronda Kin- zie. Jon Kline, Andy Person, DeeDee Watson, Mike Anderson, Rachel Fitzgerald, and Mary Ann Coble. Nurse Burchette is the nurse for all of the Manchester School System. She sets up TB tests, scoliosis screening, and hearing tests. 54 NURSE The cooks clean up after making a delicious lunch. Students wait in the lunch line for the cooks to bring out more food. Cooks The cooks put up with a lot of ungrateful students, and have one of the most underappreci- ated jobs in the school, but the long lines in the cafeteria shows how much they are needed. Al- most every student either buys a healthy hot lunch, costing $1.10, or goes through the junk food line for potato chips and Hostess cupcakes. For people who don’t want either, a salad bar is available. The cooks prepare the hot lunch and salad bar. Bus Drivers The bus drivers provided transportation to a majority of MHS students, especially to any student without a license or a car.. They put up with all sorts of trouble from teasing to squirt guns to fights, and managed not to go crazy and kill anyone. Bus drivers have the power to disci- pline the students on their bus, as some unfortu- nate troublemakers found out, and try to make the ride as pleasant as possible. Some bus drivers take on additional hours by driving to field trips and sporting events. COOKS, BUS DRIVERS 55 The buses line up every morning and afternoon to pick up or drop off stu- dents. Mr. Roth patrols the halls in between classes, mak- ing sure nobody breaks any rules. He is in charge of discipline. New Administration Busy In First Year Jim Smith returned to our administration this year in a new position as principal of our school. Assisting him with this horrendous duty of maintaining a state of orderliness, was first year vice principal George Roth. Both men did a fine job of controlling the many different situations that arose throughout the year (not to mention dealing with a couple hundred students who refused to move their bodies from the upstairs hallway). Mr. Smith and Mr. Roth dealt directly with the student body. They oversaw the organization of com- mittees that were specifically designed to get students in- volved with making changes in our school. The school board was kept busy this year with the renew- al of the teacher’s contract. After much debating and a period of over a hundred days without a contract, the school board and teachers finally compromised on a new contract. The board also decided to build two new elementary schools and tear down Laketon and Chester. This decision was controver- sial and opposed by some members of the community, who called a remonstrance hearing. The decision to build the schools was finally accepted and construction began. Mr. Roth and Mr. Smith put on a skit for the Homecom- ing pep session. Both had a lot of contact with the stu- dents. 56 ADMINISTRATION Mr. Roth watches as the seniors from his first year as vice principal begin the graduation ceremony. Mr. Smith is often seen around the high school with a smile on his face, greeting students by name. Mr. Underwood and Mr. Roth try to complete the three legged race during the Spirit Olympics.

Take life slowly, not too fast. Dream for tomorrow. Forget the past ... Each day you live you grow more tired. The truth you sell, you’re just a liar. Every day you sleep, remember what you dreamt. Think of what it’s saying, and what it really meant. For every day, there is a night, For every kiss there is a fight. For every birth, there is a death. When someone comes, someone’s left. The day you die, be happy, not sad. You're going to a place, that’s not so bad. Close your eyes and say goodbye. Today is the day you’re going to die. Erik M.

The auctioneer calls outside, Voice filtered by dusty rays of sun Breaking through missing shingles And cracked beams. Cot a nice garden tractor here! Who'll bid? Sparrows divebomb the silver watering tank. I climb carefully, testing each grimey Rung before stepping up. Slowly I turn and look over the empty Stalls littered with broken corncobs.

Andrea Jones Grandpa With slow steps I walk through familiar rooms. Now empty, cold, and strange. I circle the house Remembering smells, tastes, sounds. I stand on flat blue carpet Where the leathery recliner once rested. Grandpa sits in his smokey chair Holding my floppy yellow doll. I Stand close, giggling at this strong Man playing with me. By the sink are two coke bottles. I pick them up and feel their cool weight. And run my hands over the smooth, graceful sides. I stand next to Grandpa and look Shyly into his craggy face as he pours. Slowly, carefully. Pop fizzes over the side of the metal cup. Running down the beaded red aluminum. Mice scrabble through the walls. Grandpa works, hunched over, shaking hands Manipulating the delicate mousetrap. It snaps suddenly. Damn! he shouts, then looks at me. Embarrassed. The mice quiet while I listen to the silence Alive with memories. Janine Schall The Playground The merrygo-round spins In silence through the heat of day Waiting, watching, wondering when children will come to play. The swings droop from steel skeletons squeaking softly now, The baby passing wants to swing, but doesn’t know how. The slide stands ready to fry an egg quick No one comes near their legs would stick! The baseball diamond covered with weeds, and The base from which no one leads, The sounds of silence echo through the park, Until the scorching day Shall turn to freezing dark. Bob Novak 62 CREATIVITY Childhood Is Childhood is scraped knees and scratches from climbing trees and Mom telling you to get down before you hurt yourself. Childhood is eating your food on the floor without utensils because you wanted to act like a dog and they made you. Childhood is going back to Grandpa’s ditch and pulling out a fish and Dad saying You caught it, you unhook it.” Childhood is spending one night at your best friend’s house, then the next night you both stay over at your’s. Childhood is learning to ride your bike and every time running into the thorned Sweet-Pea bushes. Childhood is always peeking at the robin eggs and getting yelled at for disturbing the birds and climbing in the apple tree where you know you’re not supposed to be. Robin England CREATIVITY 63 Junior Miss Jr. Miss Participants Have Talents From Music To Dance Melissa Borg emerged victorious from the 1988 North Manchester Jr. Miss competition. The ten hopeful seniors had to participate in per- forming arts, youth fitness, and poise and ap- pearance. Kelly McKee was first runner-up. with Angell King as second runner-up. Angell also won one of the two Spirit of Jr. Miss trophies and the Poise and Appearance award. Patti Bechtold won the other spirit trophy. Janice Hoover re- ceived both the Youth Fitness and the Scholastic Achievement awards. Melissa Borg earned the Creative and Performing Arts award. Other com- petitors were Shelly Herendeen. Penny Eller Schneider. Kacy Trick, Kristina Smiley, and Bridgett Davis. The Performing Arts portion showed talents like piano playing, singing, dance, dramatic readings, and lip syncs. Angell King performs the Youth Fitness routine. It was long and tiring, but the girls kept on smiling. All ten girls show themselves off for the judges to demon- strate poise and appearance. 64 Jr. Miss The upstairs hall was filled with protesting students try- ing to make their opinions heard. Signs went up all over the school when it became clear that students were indeed se- rious about their protest. Students Protest Delays On Friday. January 29. a majority of Man- chester High School students staged a sit-in pro- test over the delays in the teacher contract nego- tiations. It was the 100th day the teachers worked without a new contract. Students were upset because many teachers had announced that they would not supervise any extracurricu- lar activities until a new contract was obtained. This left dances, club trips, and even prom up in the air. For two and a half hours students re- fused to go to class, first sitting in the upstairs hallway, then reluctantly moving to the gym be- cause of repeated urgings by Mr. Smith that it would be easier to talk there. Students eventual- ly went back to class after they felt their point had been made, but not before they made it into several newspapers and on the local Fort Wayne tv news. Many students felt the sit-in was worth it because they finally got their views heard, but some felt it went on too long and only had so much support because students wanted to get out of class. The teachers did eventually get a new contract. 65 AUTOGRAPH COLLECTION While most people have to spend hundreds of dollars acquiring the yearbooks of notorious and famous people from twenty to thirty years ago, you have the opportunity to start right now. You never can tell who will go on to be a newscaster, NFL pro, “Wheel of For- tune” hostess or even PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! Why wait until years from now when that person becomes famous to wish you had gotten their autograph? Do it now while you are still thinking of it. By the way, when someone does make it big, send a copy of the star’s underclassmen picture to the media to remind the world that even movie stars, musicians and politicians have trouble with widow’s peaks and something green between their front teeth. 66 UNDERCLASSMEN JUNIORS Scott Andritsch Bobby Aughinbaugh Julie Baker Valerie Bazzoni Teresa Beeney Ann Bette Brenda Betten Leisa Blocher Lynn Blocher Sam Bradley Mike Brown Candi Brubaker Jenny Brubaker April Burbank JUNIORS English assistants Leisa Blocher and Candi Kamp help keep students records up to date. One year closer to the top of the heap and all of a sudden, the top doesn’t look as appealing as it did in previous years. The juniors this year were panick- ing a bit more about Basic Skills than they did last year. Graduation loomed closer and completion of the Manchester requirements for graduation were be- coming a shocking reality as English teachers reminded lagging juniors, “You don’t have your paragraphs done yet — or your vocabulary — or your spelling — or your grammar and punctuation, etc.” Too many books doesn’t leave anywhere but his mouth for his pen.

It has nothing to do with adolescence or emo- tions; it has everything to do with money and the future. Colleges barrage students, usually starting in their junior year, with mail that attempts to lure prospective students to register at their school. The U.S. Armed Forces also tries its best to convince students that serv- ing Uncle Sam is the most economical and logical choice when considering your future education. Whatever the choice, it sure is a nice change from not getting any mail at all. Scott Lewis gains practical experi- ence at vocation school for half the day. JUNK MAIL?

Now you can ac- tually find your way around. Most soph- omores of 1987-88 gained their hot wheels to cruise around big old North Manchester. Some will remember the sit in; others will remember participating in building the float. Others may just re- member their own personal good times throughout their sophomore year. Look- ing on though, two great years on the way bringing prom and graduation.

Many stu- dents enjoy the opportunity to learn more about areas just hinted at in ele- mentary: longer works of literature, more in depth study of science and math, and the ever popular driver’s edu- cation. Freshmen look eagerly to the summer after their first year in high school so that they can get started on the road to driving. This, of course, will lead to more popularity when driving to school and therefore more dates. So. who wouldn’t look forward to high school?

We have learned alot from teachers and up- per classmen and are looking forward to learning more in years to come. The past year has been both exciting and a bit dif- ficult at times. Participating in Home- coming was fun. It was the first time we had ever worked together on a project as a class. The best time we had this year was the sit-in. We didn’t like all of the conflict and did something about it. We also had a book donated to Laketon Elementary School in memory of Tan- ner Seward. We are proud to say we are Freshmen: class of ’91.

No way! These stu- dents are out to have a great time and being considered “green” doesn’t matter at all. No one ever knows what to expect of high school, but everyone knows that one starts at the bottom and slowly raises from a “greenie” to an “admirable freshman.” (which doesn’t say much be- cause you’re still at the bottom of those admired) The thing that makes a differ- ence is not taking any freshman criti- cism to heart. Just acknowledge it as a way to make the upperclassmen feel im- portant and be glad to know that you won’t be a freshman forever. Nikki Presl displays the true look of bore- dom.

Going to the sectional championships was the highlight of the sea- son even though no trophy was brought home. The bon- tire at the school after the game showed the pride be- hind the Squires is not depen- dent on a victory of points. Captain Stars this year went to Chris Cornell, Joe Deal, Jeff Felgar, Chuck Goo- drich, Al Kline, and Matt Meyer. The player showing Andy Turner, received the Rotary Mental Attitude Award.

GIRLS’ TENNIS Although the girls’ tennis team was 5-10 there was great improvement. Sage Seward received the Most Improved Award on the J.V. squad while Wendy Jones and Eris Migliorini won the Most Valuable and Most Improved re- spectively. Kacy Trick re- ceived the Rotary Mental Attitude Award and Val- erie Bazzoni received the Hustle Award. The girls ad- vanced to the Semi-finals of the sectionals by avenging an earlier loss to Tippe Val- ley. They ended their sea- son on a 5-0 loss to Warsaw. Only losing two seniors, the girls will be ready and well prepared to play next spring. GIRLS’ TENNIS 87 MAT MEN Once again the Squire Wres- tling Team tell short of squad members with only filling all the weight classes once. The team was coached by Terry Zebulski who was assisted by Pat Powers. The team was led by senior Gene Dyson. Dyson, for the sec- ond year in a row, was county champion. Gene Dyson also served as team captain and will be missed next season. A new addition to the team this year were Mat Maids, a group of sev- en young women who cleaned the mats and helped take care of equipment. Jackie North gets the upper posi- tion in this strategic move.

An excellent record, though hard to improve upon, is the goal of the team for next year. Brian Kreps and Eric Chris- tiansen both received the most improved player awards. Contributing a posi- tive influence to the team was the recipient of the Rota- ry Mental Attitude Award, Todd Hodson. Todd Hodson springs into action as he tries for a shot that will baffle his opponent. Brian Kreps concentrates on re- turning the ball in an effort to take the match.

Coach, Val Weinstein is pleased with the team as well as the indi- vidual efforts and hopes it will continue. This year they lost to Southwood in the sec- tional 5-15, 9-15. The Varsity Volleyball team has to say good-bye to Steff Carter, Ann Fishback, Tracy Fruitt, Chelley Lehman, Delpha Ul- rey, and Kathy Young but hopes upcoming freshmen will aid in the teams success.

Coach Smith and Andy Holderman pon- der wordlessly in an effort to deduce what the Squires' next move should be. Although Aaron Cornell rarely missed his shots. Chris Singpiel readies himself for the rebound. Jeff Eckert successfully scored with this lay up. The three senior players. Aaron Hippensteel, Aaron Cornell, and Jeff Eckert, celebrate the Sectional Victory. Coach Smith quietly applauds the team from the sidelines for good teamwork. Dwenger blocks Joe Deal's at- tempted basket. HOOSIER HYSTERIA Squires advance to Fort Wayne Regionals A new, young Squire team was under the direction of head coach, Pete Smith. Smith imple- mented a fast break, multiple sub- stitution philosophy that was a nice change of pace from previ- ous years. It seemed to work, as MHS captured their first Columbia City Sectional Championship since 1982, as well as a share of the TRC title. Seniors Aaron Cornell, Jeff Eckert, and Aaron Hippensteel provided good leadership in their roles as team captains. Cornell was selected as the Most Im- proved Player, while Eckert was chosen as the Top Defensive Play- er. Many observers feel a second quarter injury to floor leader Hippensteel hampered the Squires' chances in their narrow overtime loss to Ft. Wayne Dwen- ger in the Regional at the Memori- al Coliseum. Six underclassmen started at least one game, showing the team depth MHS developed. Ju- nior Chris Singpiel, despite a se- vere ankle injury received in late December, earned County Player of the Year as well as First Team All- TRC. Sophomore Andy Holderman led MHS in scoring and was Sec- ond Team All-TRC. Both Singpiel and Holderman shared team M.V.P. honors. Juniors Joe Deal, Andy Spriggs, and Brent Stanley gave the Squires fine play, as all three scored in double figures on sever- al occasions. Future promise was shown from Tony Frieden, the first freshmen to start in boys varsity basketball at MHS! With the junior varsity winning thirteen games and the freshmen eleven games, the direction of basketball at MHS is striving to reach new heights. Junior Varsity Row 1: Head Coach Rice.

Under the direction of head coach, Rich- ard Miller, and assis- tant coach, Keith Metzger, the season outlook was promis- ing. The hard work appeared to have paid off as the team got off to a solid start in its 1988 season by winning nearly all of their regular season meets. Things slow- ed down, however, as the team was plagued by injuries and poor condi- tions. These injuries took a great toll on the team as they en- tered the champion- ship series.

Freshmen took second place with “Ghostbusters”; sophomores and juniors rounded off the competition with “Purple People Eater” and “Wipe Out” respectively. The French Club entered a 15 foot orange and white float of the Eiffel Tower. THE BODY SHOP The Body Shop is a new club at Manchester High School. Members lift weights and train to hone their bodies to perfection. Several members compet- ed in weight lifting contests. The club is sponsored by Bill White. PEP SESSIONS Everyone loves getting out of class. A perfect excuse to legally have some fun dur- ing school hours is the pep ses- sion that was held before Homecoming and the pep ses- sions before basketball sec- tional and regional. High- lights of the Homecoming Pep Session were the Junior Mis- ter contest which was won by Chris Cornell (AKA Lamar) - and the chance to see Mr. Smith and Mr. Roth do the football calls. Spirit Olympics were part of the basketball pep sessions which gives stu- dents and faculty a chance to compete against each other in various relays. LORETO Loreto Canto was a new face to MHS. An exchange stu- dent from Madrid, Spain, she found many differences here from Spanish schools. The clas- ses are larger in Spain, she not- ed, and teachers don’t offer as much individualized instruc- tion. She liked it here, however, and learned a lot about our cul- ture. At the annual Sweetheart Dance, sponsored by the Sun- shine Society, Steph Schuler won Sweetheart Queen. Steph received the crown and an arm- ful of roses for the honor.

The Sunshine Society consists of girls in all four grades. They sponsor the Sweetheart Dance around Valentine’s Day. They also held a contest where all club members had a yellow pin and wasn’t allowed to speak to any males in between classes. If the girl spoke to a male, she had to give up her pin. The boy with the must pins won this contest. Sunshine members also honored ideal ladies. At the beginning of the year they picked a woman in the community whom they would someday like to be like. Throughout the year, they secretly gave this person small gifts. An Ideal Ladies Tea at the end of the year showed the ladies who had chosen to honor them.

It was a year full of surprises for both of us — first the yearbook sponsor quit her job at the last minute and then, midway through the year, two of the three editors quit. We found soon enough that, with only the two of us, we had quite a bit of work ahead. This was the first year Amy or I had worked on a yearbook, so we spent a lot of time asking ourselves, “How do we do this? What’s that for? Do we have to write about that?” We also missed every deadline but one. It was finally done, however, and we are proud of our work. We would like to thank Bob Henning, our yearbook repre- sentative, who got us going. Thanks to Julie Baker and Tom Sizemore, our photographers, who valiantly tried to keep up with all the picture orders. In addition, several people were called on near the end of the year to assist in copy writing. They deserve great thanks too for coming through at the last minute when our year was looking darkest. Thank you! Janine Schall 140 STAFF Closing Thoughts Lost days in the prime of summer, lost weekends as the calendar turned to September 1988, and lost nights through- out the months of work on the 1987-88 yearbook were a stark reality as Janine, Amy and I attempted to complete the year- book. I greatly appreciate their stamina and thank them for their hard work. Also, several contributing writers deserve thanks: Terri Earle, Gina Fausnight, Gina Kelley, Blaine Leifer, Karla Frantz, Alison Roser, Jarrod Thompson, Wendy Steller, Robin Beery, Randy Heflin, Leisa Blo- cher, Abby Spang, Julie Winger, Rachel Landrum, Bobbi Leckrone, Megan In- skeep, Laura Landrum, and Bob Novak. Thanks for your work! Elizabeth Dowden, Yearbook Sponsor
