It’s been said that, “It’s difficult to go against traditions,” “We can’t break with traditions,” “It’s been that way for- ever.” Others have commented that “Tra- ditions are changing”and that “it’s neces- sary in order to move forward and exper- ience progress.” Junior Chris White said, “Traditions are alright, but if we never broke them, we would still be living like the cavemen.” Kevin Conway, history teacher, comment- ed that “Good traditions motivate good school spirit.” Barbara Miller, music teacher, stated that, “Without traditions, our school years would be missing the ex- 1 periences which make up memories. ” Freshman, Patsy Fulhorst felt that “Tra- ditions are great, because they remind us of our cultural heritage, and, for that rea- son, they are important for us to carry on. ” Not only are there old traditions we wish to stand by, and those we wish to change, but we at M-RH often create our own new trends and patterns, as we adopt a project or fad that we like, and hang on to it for years to come. Traditions main- tained, discarded, and acquired have all been a part of the 1984 School year. We hope that these will be apparent as you identify familiar faces and activities in the following pages of the ’84 MAPLE LEAVES. SENIORS PICK CELEBRITIES MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED MOST POPULAR 4 PRETTIEST SMILE Each year the senior class votes a slate of personalities in various categories to represent them as “Senior Celebrities” in the yearbook. Students have felt it is a real honor to be chosen for the outstanding qualities of citizenship and achievement represented in these categories. We wish to again congratulate these young peo- ple, and recognize the merits of M-RH seniors. BEST PERSONALITY TIME MARCHES ON Though the faces change and the buildings are modified to accomodate changing needs of the students and community, traditional classroom settings and activities bear similar characteristics from year to year. A new group of students comes in and a familar group go out to a world of work or additional study. Most students will glean the best memories and experiences of a school year, and carry them forth as highlights to be remembered and cherished.

These, often-hard-to-define, aspects of our lives significantly contribute to the making of us into individuals. By capitalizing on positive growing and learning experiences, along with taking advantage of provided opportuni- ties for developing friendships and working with others, we shape our own identities.

GRID DEVILS HAVE SUPER SEASON The M-RH Blue Devils had a successful season this year with a record of 6 and 3. On October 14. the grid Devils beat the longtime rival Brentwood Eagles for the first time in five years. When asked how he felt about the victory, senior cornerback Boh Elfrink stated, “The victory pulled the team together and gave us confidence to win more games. ” The Devils were also victorious against the Berkeley Bulldogs on October 28. The Devils were tied for first place with the Bulldogs with an overall record of 6 and 3. The guys were flying high with a winning spirit, even though they lost to the Jennings Warriors on Saturday, November 5. Junior cornerback Carl Shelton felt, ‘‘We weren't physically prepared for the game and that the team ‘‘took the game lightly, because Berkeley had beaten Jennings, and we had beaten Berkeley. Senior fullback, LeeKee Robinson was disappointed after the game. He, like the other members of the team, had high hopes for being the next Surburban East Conference Champs, and perhaps having a shot at the play-offs. Even in spite of the loss to Jennings, the squad and coaches felt this was a super season for the M-RH grid Devils. Coach Taylor felt that the team as a whole progressed greatly this year, and that they worked harder toward a common goal. Below are listed the final scores of the football games for the 1983 season. M-RH OPPONENT (Away) 13 Eureka 23 (Home) 34 Mercy 0 (Home) 0 Clayton 3 (Away) 55 Orchard Farm 20 (Away) 23 Affton 6 (Home) 16 Brentwood 8 (Away) 13 DuBourg 14 (Home) 15 Berkeley 14 (Away) 0 Jennings 7 SENIORS HEAD UP SQUAD A VERY DISTINGUISHED TEAM (Row 1) Anna Conner; (Row 2) Karen Warner, Kathy Roberts; Barbara White; (Row 3) Carrie Smith, Donna Douglas, Kim Penny. Every year there are many things that distin- guish the M-RH volley- ball team, and this year is no exception. One of the most familiar sites on the court was the girls prepar- ing for the game by having a quick “Down Set 1,2,3” or a yell to pep up the team. Another very distin- guishing mark that the girls made for themselves came on September 23 at M-RH. On this date the team finally reached their goal of beating their long- time rivals, the Clayton Greyhounds. This was the first time in several years that the team had defeat- ed the Greyhounds in a Suburban East League game. This rivary has been carried on for many years, and for many of the play- ers as well as the fans, this was a Well deserved victo- ry. Senior Carol Scheming stated, “After all my years of tedious days of excel- ling in volleyball, it was a great feeling of accom- plishment to finally suc- ceed in being victorious over Clayton. ” The team then went on to the league tournament, where they were seeded fifth. They won the first game over North Tech., and then went on to face Clayton, again only to be defeated. They still had one more chance to prove to them- selves by being seeded number one in the district tournament, but were beaten out in the first round by Principia. After being seeded so high and losing in the first round, many players felt that they should have done better. Senior Karen Warner stated, “I really feel we had the potential to win, but the team wasn't all together. They ended up with a final record of ten wins and five losses.

Senior Mike Upchurch The 1983 soccer Senior Mike Brown season was a very difficult year for Coach Hubbard and the young Blue Devil kickers. The Devils had a rough year going 1-19-1 on the year. Even though the season was not championship quality yet, the team showed great potential and received encouragement from opposing coaches. Regarding the season Hubbard stated, “This year we had a very young team and we were playing very tough competition. I am, though, looking forward to a good season next year with more experienced players. ” VARSITY BL UE DEVILS (Row 1) Fred Robinson, Nevels Nevels, Eddie Gilliam, Paul Williams, Keith Kee; (Row 2) Coach Andy Hubbard, Chris Taylor, Derrick McAlister, Donnie Cyrus, Steve Norful, Darren Hall, John Jenkins, and Dennis Hoelzer. Varsity Basketball Coach Andy Hubbard has been with the Maplewood Blue Devils for three seasons. All three years have been very successful. The 1982-83 teams both made it to the state quarter finals before being eliminated. The 1984 Devils, according to Hubbard, “We’re all hard players, who stuck to the game plan and executed well. They’ve been a good bunch of kids to work with’’. Coach Hubbard gives the team some sound advice during a time-out. 4s the 1984 season got started, the varsity players proved themselves strong, and in the case of some mem- bers, even stronger than before. Senior Darren Hall felt the team needed to work on the fundamentals of the game, considering that the team had lost most of its starters from last year. “We’ve got to learn how to play team ball and communicate with one another; and we'll go far. stated Eddie “Boo-Boo” Gilliam.

LOWER RIGHT: J.V. team members look on during the Jennings game. Since M-RH does not have a junior high bas- ketball program, the junior varsity squad is tra- ditionally a young and immature team with a number of freshman players. Coach Guy Mc- Clure said “This year’s J.V. didn’t have the opportunity to really mature until after Christ- mas, at which the team really began to gel. Since most of the players have been accustomed to playing basketball on a one-on-one basis in P.E., it is sometimes difficult to learn to play as a cohesive team. “With a number of returning players next year the prospects for a strong sophomore led team look promising. ” I (Row 1) Gerald Harris, Kurt Nalls, Ivory Dixon, Eddie Wilson; (Row 2) Coach Guy McClure, Mike Keen, Curt Davis, Sam Taylor, Dwayne Gilliam, Rommel Sanders, Burrell Gray.

This year the girl’s varsity basketball team had a rather rough season, but they did not consider it a bad year. Both Junior Anna Conner and Senior Karen Warner said that they had fun. Warner also added that, “We’ve really played as a team this year and felt good about all of our games, win or lose. Coach Michael Russell also felt good about this year’s season. He stated, “I have had a nice group of girls to work with, and we have had a lot of fun even when we weren’t playing in a game, or at practice. ” He also added that, “Senior Donna Douglas has really helped this season. This was our fourth year together, and her experience was very key. ” Kim Penny goes for a long shot. 63 Kim Penny Kim White SENIOR GIRL ROUNDBALLERS 64 MORE HOME COURT ACTION I Defensive players, Kim Penny and Brenda Keaton, get a workout.

JUNIOR VARSITY IS YOUNG TEAM For most of the girls on the junior varsity team, this was their first experience in high school basketball. This ac- counted for the slow start and rough season for the young squad. Coach Jim Roy felt that with the quickness of the group and the talent of a growing and ma- turing team, next year’s poten- tial for a better season exists. The captain of this year’s ten-woman team was Michelle Nevels who showed good lead- ership and great defensive play- ing.

This is in order that the girls may- part icipate in drill team clin- ics and performances during the summer and prepare new routines for the fall. This year's poms, under the su- pervision of Bruce P.E. teacher Connie Murray, par- ticipated in Pom-pon I'nlim- ited. the Matthew Dickie Competition, and the Super Star Drill Team Camp. At the clinics the participants enjoyed meeting with mem- bers of other drill teams and such leaders as the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

With roughly twenty-eight mem hers and only lour members wanting to go, the trip was cancelled. Spanish teacher and did) advisor Sherry Spicuzza said. “Over the years, students have joined our club, hut not wished to participate.” At the beginning of the year, everyone participated in the initiations which allowed them to become men)hers, hut their involvement dropped off as it always does. A few years ago the Spanish club had floats in the homecoming parade. They also sang cheers in Spanish and were much more active. Events planned by the Spanish speaking students for the spring included a hay ride, a progressive dinner, a few picnics, and a Valentine’s Day party. Club president MaDonna Weisman received organizational help from the other officers which included Vice President Michele Southard. Secretary Heidi Caikins. and Treasurer Amv Goldstein.

M-RH has had a very active German Club this year. It now consists of 18 dues-paying ac- tively-participating members. In addition there are a number of alumni, who are always wel- come at German Club activities. The only re- quirement is that they have been previous members during one of their four years of high school. The first party of the year for ’83-84 was the annual initiation. After students decided to be- come involved, club members put them through a number of strange tasks, activities and exper- iences. This year initiates were asked to dress up as Greeks and flower children. In addition they were required to recite in German certain phrases and information, put make-up on each other, and complete an obsta- cle course blindfolded. After initiates were inducted into the club, activities for members were begun. Skating, piz- za parties, and hayrides are among the favor- ites. The 1983-84 officers included President Per- ry Overton, Vice-President Mike Soest, Secre- tary Betty Frank, and Treasurer Rena Smedley. The faculty sponsor was Rebecca Kettler. German Club President Perry Overton mugs for the yearbook photographer CLUB MEMBERS DISCUSS TRIP TO GERMANY The yearbook staff interviewed several club members and asked them why they would like to make a trip to Germany. Some members who went last year told us what they enjoyed most about their trip. Senior Betty Frank, who has gone to Germany, really enjoyed meeting new people from a differ- ent country. She also enjoyed staying with a fam- ily who allowed her to have freedom to do as she wished. Betty said, ‘‘The country was beautiful and very clean. Beauty seemed to be important to the Germans.” Junior Perry Overton said he enjoyed himself when all of the English students got together and went out on the town. He liked the fact that the cities weren’t overcrowded. Perry said, ‘‘There seemed to be lots of open country space.” Freshmen Kim Cheskev, who would someday like to travel to Germany, thinks Germany would be fun and an interesting experience. Sophomore Mike Soest also wants the exper- ience of being in a different country, especially Germany, since his ancestors were German. Senior Nevels Nevels wants to go too so, he’ll be able to tell everyone about it. He very much enjoys traveling. Freshman Courtney Harsh said, “Igot interest- ed in Germany when my sister went. I really want to learn the Germans’ ways of living and to see their country.” SHOW CHOIR (left to right) Kristen Thompson, Monica White, Lisa Rook, Cindy Dyer, Annette Ryan, Trica Gluck, Sheila Hanson, Kim Abington, Samantha Martindell, Mary Swallow, and Lori Seabaugh.

Trebelaires is an all girls choir which consists of sixteen girls this year. They are directed by Miss Barbara Miller and accompanied by Mrs. Alveria Sivcovich. Trebelaires have been here at M-RH for nine years now, and have been a very successful group. Trebs are open to girls only from grades 9-12. The girls are picked after they audition with Miss Miller. The music they sing varies, but mostly the group performs popular, and traditional music. Each year they sing at different clubs and organizations such as the Presbyterian Church Women’s Club and St. Augustine’s Senior Citizen Center. Another activity of this group includes sending representatives to participate in solos and small ensembles at the district festival, held this year on April 7, 1984. Show Choir is also a very popular music group here at M-RH. It is for both males and females grades 9-12. This year’s group consists of six males and ten female vocalists. Show Choir also participates in the same concert and festival performances as the Trebs. Show Choir has been her here at M-RH for seven years. They, too, are directed and choregraphed by Miss Miller and accompanied by Mrs. Sivcovich. The Acappella Choir came under the direction of a new faculty member, who joined us at the semester, Miss Julie Powell, a graduate of Southwest Missouri State College in Springfield, Missouri. The group sings different kinds of music including pop, some gospel, and traditional music.

Nikki Mahoney and Connie Kelly take time from printing pictures to have theirs made. STAFF A yearbook is a book of memories for a particular year. It’s made up of activities, events, and people as they are experienced during the course of a school team. This year’s staff, like those of the past, worked hard to catch glimpses of the 83-84 year in a way that was representative of the whole school. In the ’84 Maple Leaves, they sought to examine M-RH from the point of view of traditions — re- newed, broken, and invented. The staff this year gained in their knowledge, too, of dead- lines, photogaphy, layouts, and sales; but most importantly, they learned to work as a group, depending on each other for ideas, information, support, and affirmation. Pat Johnston lent a hand second semester with writing, typing, and printing. (Beginning at the top of the “C” and moving counter-clockwise) Cindy Maxey, Angel Wren, Randy Willis, Keith Kee, Chris Bennett, Chris White, Darrel Hobbs, Debbie Laubert, Candee Schweppe, and Karen Warner. CHIP STAFF Mr. Roy, supervisor of this year’s CHIP newspaper says he has a very good staff to work with. He says they are both consistent and also have good leadership abilities. The CHIP is an operation done completely by the students. They sell the ads, plan, write the articles, and edit their own work. One gets on the staff by either being requested by Mr. Roy or if someone is interested, he can contact him. The newspaper comes out five times a year. Jim Roy sponsors the CHIP.

THEATRE GROUPS ATTEND PLAYS Two organizations at M-RH continue to uphold the school’s interest in and enthusiasm for drama. “Drama Club,”according to President Wendy Shirley, “is an orga- nization for kids interested in acting, producing, directing, and other aspects of the stage. ” This year several of the group toured the Muny Opera and received acting tips from professional actors and directors, after trying out for the Muny’s apprentice program. Drama Club member Robin Hartzell, who also directed M-RH’s production of 1984, was one of the recipients, as was M-RH junior Randy Willis. Each fall there are fifteen students chosen from the entire St. Louis metropolitan area and given the opportunity to study through St. Louis University with the Muny Opera company. Students are auditioned by Ms. Debra Wicks, who is in charge of the apprentice program. The winners are then given instruction in voice and diction, acting technique, improvisation, and ultimately participate in a spring pro- duction presented by the Muny. This April’s play was the Runaways. Another group representative of the drama interest at M-RH is Thespians. This group is a chapter of the Interna- tional Thespian Society, which is comprised of high school and college students as well as theatre professionals, who have earned points toward membership, because of their involvement in some way with stage production. Sue Stephens, Joe Soest, Bryan Giffin, Dean Norris, Paul Swierk, Danny Jett, Frank Ball. TECHNICAL CREW SPLITS FROM STAGE CREW Previous to this year the stage crew was a large group that took care of all aspects of stage production, including sound and lighting equipment, keeping the stage in order, set construction, and setting up the auditorium for use by outside groups. This year the crew was divided and the stage crew han- dled only the constructing of scenery, maintaining of stage equipment, striking of sets, and the managing of props. A small group, experienced in electronic and electrical equipment, formed a technical crew to work with sound and lighting equipment. These people were responsible for the technical and mechanical aspects of drama and music department productions, as well as all assemblies, evening programs, and activities involving auditorium use. Students participating in stage crew and technical crew earned points toward Thespian Club membership by put- ting in so many hours of time being involved with drama producton. Also this year the group made several off-campus trips to visit backstage and behind the scenes productions such as By the Skin of Our Teeth and Porgy and Bess.

COE stands for Cooperative Occupational Education, which means part-time jobs for students. A person gets into COE by consulting supervisors in various job areas, filling out applications, interviewing with Ms. Chesky to see if he has good qualifications, and having good grades and a good attendance record. Students get jobs in such fields as manufacturing, banking, fast food restaurants, and medicine. They are evaluated both in the classroom and on the job. COE students must be paid at least $3.35 which is the minimum wage. The program is very worthwhile to the school and to the economy of the community. It is good for the economy, because it gives students more money to spend, so they become more independent and on their own. It is also worthwhile to the students, because it gives them working experience over other students. Our COE program is different from other schools because, here, Ms. Chesky helps students locate jobs but in other schools, students must find jobs for themselves. We also have another program called DECA, which stands for Distributive Educational Clubs of America. It is only for COE or Marketing and Distributive Education (DE) students. Distributive Education is any kind of training having to do with marketing skills. In DECA Club, students compete with other schools for points on tests and projects in the areas of marketing, retail, banking, and other skills.

CECH CLUB GOES TO JEFF Though the M-RH CECH Club is one of the smaller groups on campus, and perhaps lesser known, it has an active membership and serves a worthwhile purpose. CECH is the abbreviation for its parent organization, Citizenship Education Clearing House. This group is a non-profit agency, which gathers and distributes information on all kinds of subjects relevant to the area of social studies. Students involved in the CECH Club are those interested in information and possibly careers in the area of social sciences, like politics, government, law. social agencies, etc . . . The club provides opportunities for students to practice writing and delivering speeches and oral reports; practice in writing and communicating with government officials through letters; and offers an opportunity for members to hear guest speakers on subjects such as child abuse and other social issues. In the past students have participated in projects such as writing and distributing a survey on drugs and alcohol abuse. This was to determine if M-RH really had a drug abuse problem and to then look at ways to attack the problem. One of the favorite projects of the group each year has been a trip in February to visit the state capital in Jefferson City. Students are able to meet and visit the congressmen and representatives and see firsthand government at work. This year’s group, sponsored by Kevin Conway of the history department, was led by President Madonna Wiseman, Vice- president Dana Flores, and Secretaries Ron Keen and Tina Smith. � (Row 1) Lisa Portwood, Kevin Conway, and Chrissy Andrews; (Row 2) Ginger Rafferty, MaDonna Wiseman, Dana Flores, and Paul Swierk; (Row .V Martha Williams, Emma McCalland.

AND DRAGONS DUNGEONS Dungeons and Dragons is a very complex role-playing game that allows the student involved to exercise his imagination and powers of logic to the fullest. To play the game, an individual must enter an adven- ture at a certain level by exploring fictional story lines involving medieval magic, mystery, and monsters. Un- der the direction and guidance of the Dungeon Master, the player helps create his own fantasies and adven- tures. There is a National Organization of Dungeons and Dragons, but our school is not a part of this organiza- tion. Mr. Stone started the club last year, when he began teaching at M-RH. Our school has approximately twenty active members.

Spirit week however, was not eliminated. Students still dressed up to earn points for their classes, and they still par- ticipated in float competition. Each class constructed spirit chains which were made of in- dividual links purchased by the students. 95 HOMECOMING TRADITIONS CHANGE Senior Maid Karen Kays and escort, Steve Norful.

One of the traditions that was changed this year was the date for homecoming. Until this year! Homecoming was always during the football season. It was felt, however, that it would allow alumini, as well as cur- rent students, to attend activi- ties, if the date were moved to the Christmas season and in- volved a basketball game. Anna Holmes and escort Paul Williams BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING i ism The drama department’s first production for the 1983-1984 school year was George Orwell’s timely play, 1984. The plot concerns the possibility of a political state in which people’s existence is ruled by fear, violence, and thought-control. Representing this philosophy is Big Brother, who allows no individuality or human freedom. Two young people named Winston and Julia, played by John Goldstein and Kim Penny, who live in Oceania, have the extreme misfortune of falling in love. Their’s is a life of struggle and frustration as they are ultimately reprogrammed and re-educated to show love and obedience to Big Brother Dr. Fred W. Lanigan-Superintendent Mr. Jerry L.
