Frustrated by rain, mud, and a tough Fairview opponent, halfback Joe Hammers stares in¬ tensely at the game. Dressing up as Woodstock proved to be hot work for senior Sheri Hoisington. Ann Huston leads the crowd in cheers as the Junior class float parades through the square uptown. 32 Homecoming Liz Dick Crowned Homecoming Queen With the bonfire blazing in the background, Homecoming Queen Liz Dick and escort Kurt Dix display smiles after the ceremony announcing her as Queen. A successful Homecoming starts long before the actual weekend. Both Seniors and Juniors worked diligently on their floats approximately a month in advance. ‘‘Peanuts on Parade” was the theme for Homecoming ‘80. Spirit week activities planned by Student Council included the pie eating contest, which was won by Craig Turek and hall decorating taken by the Seniors. In addition spirit jerseys were sold and Silence Day was held. On Thursday October 16, the real ac¬ tion began at the bonfire where the Senior float was announced the winner and awarded the trophy. The Seniors also grabbed the trophy for most spirited class by their successful efforts at the hall decorating contest and the spirit link competition. The highlight of the evening was the announcement of Liz Dick as the 1980 Homecoming Queen. Her court in¬ cluded Leslie Prochaska, Lee Ann Kurtz, Bonnie Wassel, and Claudia Van Horsten. Friday’s event before the game includ¬ ed the Queen, the court, and candidates Holly Beish, Patty Judson, Vicki Swingle, Debbie Muhleman, Joleen Seibert, Sue Pettit, Brenda Semivan, Deanna Hefner, Sandy Jacobson, Pam Bostwick, Wendy Gritman, and Lori Rummins being escort¬ ed across the field. The rain put a damper on the night but most disappointing was the Bee’s 12 — 0 loss to the Fairview Warriors. Spirits rose Saturday night, however, for the Homecoming dance which ran into complications when the band cancelled. Fortunately, another band was hired in time to finish off a memorable weekend. Working on the junior float was not all hard work as junior class president Rick Krejci and fellow workers Jim Cartwright, Joy Cox, Kathy Kubal and Pam Dick take time out to mug for the camera. Homecoming 33 Banquet Begins “Best Of Times” Ushering in the Best of Times,” the annual Junior-Senior Banquet was held the night be¬ fore Prom on May 15. The evening began with the Invocation given by Jennifer Imig and Pam Dick. The dinner, served by members of the Sophomore Class, provided those attending with a chance to socialize with their friends. After dinner entertainment was organized by the Junior Class. Highlighting the festivities was a perfor¬ mance by Medina’s own T.O.B.I. (faculty mem¬ bers Testa, Osterland, Berger, and Interliggi) who gave their own rendition of It’s Raining on Prom Night and a reprise of their old standby “Summer Lovin’. Next Ginger Mathews sang Memories while photos of seniors were flashed on the screen. Other highlights includ¬ ed a homemade film called “Mr. Bill Goes To Prom produced by George Promenschenkel and Rick Krejci, the singing of the theme song, Styx’s Best of Times by Pam Dick (accom¬ panied by Jennifer Cook), a performance by Trinty (a local band made up of John Sadzewicz, Brian Robertson, and Mike Veres) and the presentation of Senior Awards by Ju¬ niors Karen Easterday, Elaine Brennan, and Cathy Bryenton. As Junior Class Adviser Tom Testa looks on intently, Senior Class Presi¬ dent Steve Diehl thanks the class of ' 81 for the great four years they had together. Basketball players Jeff Karson and Jason Hunter, members of the 1981 S.W.C. Championship Team, spend the evening reminiscing about past victories. Pausing for a moment before presenting the evening ' s entertainment are juniors Ginger Mathews and Karen Easterday. 34 Banquet Marie Mambuca, Barb Raaf, and Bob Mizerick share a happy moment together as they wait to be served. Presenting Tracy Green with the Stud-of-the- Year” award is Cathy Bryenton. Other award winners included Debbie Muhleman and Mark Bock tor Best “Buns,” Tim Kirkham and Lee Ann Kurtz tor Flirt of the Year,” and receiving Most Likely To Succeed were Vicki Swing le and Mark Linderman. Banquet 35 Prom Goers Dance The Night Away Attending Prom has always been one of the Best of Times in high school and this year was no different. With the music of the Tommy Chris Band in the background, Juniors and Seniors and their guests danced and mingled at the Medina County Community Center. Elegant chandeliers, candles and bouquets of flowers decorated the Center. Refreshments were served by the Freshmen throughout the evening. The highlight of the evening came as Prom Committee head, Cliff Caldwell announced Sheri Hoisington and Doug Vidika as King and Queen. Liz Dick and Kurt Dix were announced as attendants. Following warm applause, the two couples shared a spotlight dance to the theme song, The Best of Times.” Prom festivities did not end with the dance. Many couples spent Sunday together going on picnics, canoeing at Mohican State Park, and traveling to amusement parks at Cedar Point and King’s Island. Seniors Sheri Hoisington and Doug Vidika were voted Prom King and Queen by the senior class. They each received a gift to commemorate the occasion. Foreign exchange student Peter Moran appears to be showing his date, Karen Ehrhardt, a style of dance from his native Australia. Assistant Principal Mr. Robert Dague, along with freshmen servers Chris Niese, Carolyn Cody and Gail Riddleburgh greet the prom goers as they arrive 36 Prom Prom couples danced the night away to the music of the Tommy Chris band.

Under the leader¬ ship of president Rick Krejci, the class involved itself in many activities. During football season, the Juniors could be found flocking to Slyman’s where they worked long hours on their first Home¬ coming Float. Unfortunately, their labor was in vain when the judges voted the Senior float as the better of the two. Dur¬ ing football and basketball games and at the M.I.T., the Juniors worked in the con¬ cession stand. The proceeds from this, and from the Christmas gift-wrap sale held in December, went toward the Ju¬ nior-Senior Prom, which the Juniors were responsible for organizing. The many activities the class was in¬ volved in brought them closer together and they became a highly spirited group. They came to the realization that success is achieved only through hard work. For these reasons, there is no doubt the en¬ tire class will go a long way in the future.

Being a Prom and Banquet Committee Head is sometimes a thankless job. Orga¬ nization and preparation for the unex¬ pected made the jobs of Co-Chairper¬ sons Cliff Caldwell and Ann Huston espe¬ cially hectic. Cliff and Ann guided twelve committees to prepare for prom and ban¬ quet on May 16 and 17. With a theme of “The Best of Times’’ Kathy Kubal and Lin¬ da Maletz headed the decoration commit¬ tee while Karen Pope-Carr was in charge of the flower arrangements. Invitations and other odd jobs were taken on by Sue Hughes as Jana Vawter arranged for re¬ freshments. Selecting sophomore serv¬ ers for the banquet became the task of Sue Milota. The programs were made by Chris Bailey while Ginger Mathews and George Promenschenkel took charge of entertainment. One of the most tedious jobs of prom involves the clean-up which was ably handled by Jeff Driscoll, Tom Fisher, Grant Keehn, and Roger Wood. Prom committee heads included: row 1 — J. Vawter, R. Krejci, K. Kubal row 2 — G. Promenschenkel, L. Zaremba, K. Pope- Carr, L. Maletz row 3 — G. Keehn, J. Driscoll, S. Milota, S. Hughes row 4 — R. Wood, T. Fisher, J.D. Fritz, D. Cody, C. Bailey.

Juniors 67 Sophomores began their second year at the high school with spirit and pride. The class officers of the ’80-’81 year were Steve Snyder, President, Laurie Ve- trone, Vice-president, Cari Schumaker, Secretary, and Laurie Kramer, Treasurer. Before the new year, the enthusiastic sophomores were out making money. In the summer months, the sophomores had both a successful bake sale and car wash. With the money, the class of ’83 participated in the Homecoming festivi¬ ties. The class made the traditional mas¬ cot, which was a Fairview warrior dummy that was thrown into the bonfire. In charge of decorations for the Homecoming dance, the class gave the students a su¬ per dance. Their pride in the Bees was shown throughout the year, as especially seen in the Student Council Spirit Weeks. In the Spirit Week, the sophomores tied the seniors for first place. By tradition, the sophomores served at the Junior-Senior Banquet helping in the spring festivities. The sophomores ' pride will prove the success of their future years at M.H.S.

Sophomores 77 Freshmen Add Something Special For everyone, the Freshman year is a time for meeting new people, experiencing new things, and adjusting to a new school routine. The Class of 1984’s first year at Medina was no differ¬ ent. They started out the year just a bit scared and insecure and immature, but finished it having matured a great deal, confi¬ dent and ready to face their final three years of high school. They went through what everyone goes through their freshman year: speech class, GATB tests and Earth Science labs, but the class had a lot of spirit and showed a willingness to work. These traits paid off in the form of a fantastic bonfire at the Homecom¬ ing Pep Rally and a winning freshman football team. The class of 1984 has much to offer this school and will no doubt go a long way in their last three years at Medina.

By the end of the open¬ ing game, the Bees, coached by Al Cook¬ sey, showed that the newspaper just might be wrong, blowing by Cloverleaf 30 — 0 . It was a foretaste of what was to come. Medina, led by tri-captains Doug Eastwood, Tracy Green, and Bill Bennett, fought their way to a 5 — 4 — 1 record overall, and a 3 — 3 — 1 record in the Southwestern Conference, good enough for fourth place. The Bees showed that they could play with anyone,losing a close game to con¬ ference champ Westlake, and holding their own against state semifinalist Re¬ vere. More importantly, the Bees played pre-season favorite to win the SWC, Avon Lake to a 3 — 3 tie, a tie which prevented the Shoremen from winning an SWC title. Medina also had some exciting wins, es¬ pecially over SWC foes Olmsted Falls, Rocky River, and North Olmsted. Although the season was a success due to the effort put out by the entire team, Medina did have several standouts. Senior linebacker Bill Bennett was named to the All-District, All-Conference, and All- Medina County teams. Fellow seniors Doug Eastwood, defensive end, and Ed Nalepa, kicker, were named to the All- Conference and All-County teams. And, as a bright spot for the future, junior de¬ fensive halfback Gregg Komjati, was named second team All-Conference and first team All-County.

Football at the Junior Varsity level at Medina proved to be very successful this season. The JV Bees, coached by Jim Wienczkowski and John Semenik, rushed to a respectable 6 — 4 record. Their sea¬ son had its ups and downs. The JV Bees came out strong in independent play only to have two disappointing losses to league foes Avon Lake and Bay. Medina then went on a 4 game winning streak, which included a thrilling come from be¬ hind victory against North Olmsted, only to lose to Westlake and end the season with a 4 — 3 league record. The JV Bees were led by the offensive play of quarterback Jim Frantz, linemen Dave Reber and Jim Tischke, and running backs Dan Warner and Ron Bruzda. De¬ fensively the Bees were led by lineman Ken Hotz and Dan Sutandar, linebackers Howie Longacre and Steve Snyder, and halfbacks Pete Korte and Scott Freese. Medina’s Freshman team fared just as well. Under the leadership of coach Rich Storey, the frosh pounded their way to a 6 — 1 record, their only loss is a season opening game against Bay, and a share of the conference crown.

Despite many injuries to key play¬ ers, the hooters compiled a 10 — 7—1 record. A potent defense which proved to be the Bees biggest asset was led by Senior fullback Todd Ruppelli and Cleve¬ land Prestar; Junior goalie Roger Wood. Their 1.5 goals against average was one of the best in the area. On offense the Bees were led by Junior Jamie Malone and Senior ob Lavelle. The most impressive games the Bees put together were a 1 — 0 loss to Kidron and a 2 — 1 sectional win against St. Edwards. Coach Mike Davanzo noted Russ Gifford for his outstanding hustle and leadership throughout the year. Behind the constant threat to strike at any time, the Bees were able to catch opponents off guard on numerous occa¬ sions. Most Valuable Player offense went to Malone while Ruppelli captureed MVP Defense. Wood nabbed the Most Im¬ proved Award and Gifford the Outstand¬ ing Leadership Award. Mike Colvin and Lavelle received the Boosters Unsung Hero Award. Captains awards went to Gif¬ ford, Lavelle, and Ruppelli.

From Worst to First A motto which would have described this year’s team is From worst to first.” After finishing 0 — 16 in 1979, the seven returning letter women were able to turn their fortunes around and compile a 13 — 5 record in 1980. Despite just missing a chance for first place in the SWC, the girls were able to capture second place and establish several volleyball re¬ cords such as: most victories in a season (13), long¬ est winning streak (9 games), first time a Medina Volleyball team was seeded (4th place), and the first time to ever defeat Bay Village and the league champion Avon Lake in the 1980 season. Jenny Gaume makes another perfect set.

Goes to State Third Year Straight The boys cross country team, with an 11 — i record, carried on the tradition of excellence that they have come to be known by. The team went to the state meet in Columbus for the third year straight and came away with a 14th place finish. With consistent performances throughout the year, the C.C.’ers won both the Cloverleaf and Wooster Invita- tionals. After taking a 2nd place finish in the county meet at the hands of Clover- leaf, the Bees came buzzing back to sting the Colts in a later meet. Senior co-captain Joe Rog led the team with many sparkling performanc es including the school record run of 12:25 and the Reagan Park record of 13:00. An¬ other senior, Laurand Lewandowski, be¬ came better and better as the year pro¬ gressed and was on Rog’s tail most of the 17 races throughout the year. Mark Kenski, also a co-captain, turned in nu¬ merous fine performances for Coach Jim Valentine. Other Seniors that ran varsity were Mike Fanelli, Doug Anderson, Jeff Cot- man and Preston Buchtel.

Junior Debbie Kobak placed the year ' s record for her grade with a time of 16:00 in the 2.5 mile run. Ellen Ingraham placed the sophomore record and school record with a time of 15:37. Both were named Most Valuable Players of the Year. Vicki Hogue, a four year veteran, was named captain of the team.

According to coach Mark Loomis, who is in his first year at Medina, the goal for next year is to “win state or come as close as we can.” Girls Varsity C.C.

Girls CC 101 Girls Tennis Wins 19 The 1980 Girls Tennis team’s season turned out to be a successful one. This was the eighth season for girls tennis at Medina Senior High. The outstanding event for the girls was their victory over perennial SWC title holder Bay Village, a first for the team. Medina entered confer¬ ence action with more chance of captur¬ ing the title than ever before and finished the season in fourth place. Dropping one point defeats in decisions against Avon Lake and Westlake kept Medina from grabbing a piece of the championship. Nevertheless Medina did prove its power in non-conference battle, with victories over Laurel School (1979 State Champi¬ on) and Pioneer Runner-up Midpark. This season was also the season for special accomplishments. The young Medina team set a school record with the most victories in a season — 19. With depth being the trade mark of the squad, Me¬ dina played three different schedules (Varsity “A”, Varsity “B” and Junior Var¬ sity) finishing with a 19 — 13 record. Indi¬ vidual accomplishments, Brenda Semi¬ van and Sue Sugden finished second in the SWC tournament at first doubles. Most rewarding though was the fact that contributions to the team’s success came from all quarters. Senior Brenda Semivan leaps high to return a shot. Freshman Chris Niese returns a shot from deep court as number one singles player LuAnn Seeger watches. 102 Girls Tennis M. Murphy, K. Carr, K. Koziel, E. Brennan, C. Neise, J. Stevens, L.

The 1980 Southwestern Conference Champs proved that seniors are not a ne¬ cessity to win. Sophomore John Harris led the 15 — 1 squad to their first SWC title since 1971, and picked up a 1st team SWC honor along the way. Following in Harris ' path were Sophomore Paul Krajewski and Junior Rob Grote, both landing a 2nd team SWC spot. Seniors Jeff Frazier, John Lo- binger and Todd Pype along with Junior Tim Krepp, filled Medina’s fourth through sev¬ enth varsity positions. The young team was coached by Doug Walker who nabbed SWC Coach of the Year. The SWC champs felt right at home in the SWC tournament by cap¬ turing the title. They also placed 5th in sec¬ tionals but failed to qualify for districts. Me¬ dina’s only setback of the season came at the hands of Cloverleaf but, later avenged this loss. The JV Bees, 13 — 2 overall, were coached by Mark Osterland. Their greatest triumph of the season was upending the Var¬ sity squad.

In spite of this the Bees managed an exciting 19-4 sea¬ son and fell only one game short of mak¬ ing it to the Kent Regionals. Darner’s crew stung eighteen foes in a row with a fast-breaking offense that could score points at any time behind the dynamite play of Senior guard Keith Cole¬ man. On numerous occasions Coleman would send the crowd into a frenzy with a gliding layup over players six or more inches taller than he. When it wasn’t Co¬ leman it could be Val Hunter putting in a 20 or 25 foot jumper or Jeff Karson with a dazzling behind the back pass to Bo In¬ man who would put in a layup only like Bo could do. Or maybe Craig Turek would snare a rebound up high at one end and put in a shot from almost anywhere. Jason Hunter would impress many with his cou¬ rageous dives after loose balls on the floor and Sophomore Russ Kotalac proved to be a large factor under the boards for the Bees. The bearded Dave Koi would always send the students in an uproar upon entering the game. Senior Captain Val Hunter maintains his balance on a Bee fastbreak.

The J.V. Basketball team compiled a 11-8 season behind the easy going head coach Rich Storey. With seven of the players playing both J.V. and Varsity one would think the team would not do well. The players didn’t practise together but when the game got rolling the young hoopsters would mend together quite well. All of the players presented prob¬ lems to their opponents. If one man was cold another would pick up the slack. Not¬ ed for outstanding play throughout the year were Jay Brown, Jay Peters, Joe Lazer, Ron Pister, Kevin Dunn, and Brian Stadnik. The teams best game was against Southview when they came back from a 22 point halftime deficit to beat the Saints. As far as the freshmen team went, well, they didn’t fair so well. The George Bau- men led team went 3-11 but were noted for their gradual improvement throughout the year. Coach Bauman praised Eugene Ware and Brian Scott as the most im¬ proved throughout the year and the team’s biggest asset was their team de¬ fensive ability. J.V.

The answer is the Girls Varsity Basketball team coached by Bob Peters. This year it was no different. Led by S.W.C. Most Valuable Player and Honorable Mention All Ohio junior center Shelly Miller as well as all-S.W.C. senior guard Brenda Semivan, the Queen Bees grabbed a share of the conference title along with Olmsted Falls. Their season had a lot of thrills and special moments for Medina fans. Among them was a ten point beating of state- ranked Brecksville. More important, the girls gave previously undefeated and Karen Klucher, Shelly Miller, Paula Piskach, and Karen Easterday listen closely to instructions from Coach number one ranked Olmsted Falls a 21 Bob Peters. point thrashing. The season ended on a down note when the Queen Bees lost a one point heartbreaker to Norton, another unde¬ feated and number one ranked team in Triple A competition. The team ended with a 17-4 record and with plenty of re¬ turning letter women. They show great promise for the future.

After the final stand¬ ings were tallied, the Bees came away with a third place. With a 3-3-1 SWC re¬ cord and a 5-5-1 over all record, Coach Lavery praised his crew for their steady improvement throughout the year. The team, which was a rather young bunch, with six sophomores and seven juniors lettering, opened the season with a tough loss to Strongsville by the score of 27-25. In a double dual meet with Wadsworth and state powerhouse High¬ land, the Bees dominated the Grizzlies while they took one on the chin against Highland. Although the wrestlers lost to Olmsted Falls, they came back to tie the Pirates from Rocky River and defeat the Avon Lake Shoremen. Medina then went on to sting Westlake 57-5 in their finest perfor¬ mance of the year. The Medina area saw one of the states top tournaments in the Medina Invitational Tournament (M.l.T.) at Christmas time. The Bees pulled away with a tenth place finish out of thirty-two teams.

By year’s end the oval saw six meets includ¬ ing the Medina Invitational where the home squad captured the championship trophy. Winners in the meet included Doug Eastwood, Roger Wood, Joe Rog, in two races and two relay teams. The high point of the season was Junior pole vaulter Roger Wood’s District cham¬ pionship which was followed by the high¬ est placing in the State Meet by a Medin- ian, third place. Other highlights included Joe Rog ' s 4:22 1600 meter run and 1:58 800 meter run, Doug Eastwood ' s 49-4 shot put, Ron Pistor soaring 6-3 in the high jump, Phil Brewer’s 39.9 in the 300 meter low hurdles and 6-1 high jump. Micah Lee provided the needed speed in the sprint with an 11.2 100 and 22.5 200. Laurand Lewandowski broke the magic 10:00 barrier in the 3200 meter run with a 9:59. George Promenschenkel vaulted 12-6 while Russ Kotolac long- jumped 19-8. The Senior Tri-captains were Doug Eastwood, Kurt Dix, and Joe Rog.

Junior pitcher Dave Kemp is about ready to uncork a blazing fast ball to catcher Steve Fodor. With one game left in the season, Coach Dale Weygandt had his sights set on his 200th career victory. By the time the last out was made, that goal became a reality. The Varsity Bees compiled a 9-5 S.W.C. record, good enough to earn them a second place position in the confer¬ ence. This record was the second best in 17 years and the best since 1974. As expected pitching proved to be the strong point of the team, emerging with a team E.R.A. of 2.180, the best in the con¬ ference. Also deserving recognition is Dave Kemp, who had impressive outings against Wooster, Olmsted Falls, Fair- view, Westlake and Rocky River. Tom Fisher and Brian Rose led the team in batting with .364 and .341 averages re¬ spectively. Outstanding awards went to Brian Rose, who earned the team ' s M.V.P. and best E.R.A. and was nominated to the S.W.C., Medina County, and Cleveland Area East West All Star Teams. Tom Fisher also recorded the team’s highest batting average, and earned a position on the 1st team AII-S.W.C.

(Youth Association for Retarded Citizens) is a group dedicated to working with the retarded citizens of Medina. According to co-President, Wendy War- dell, “It was very satisfying working with the retarded children; an experience everyone should share.” During the course of the year, the mem¬ bers planned many activities for the stu¬ dents. In October they held a Halloween par¬ ty at the Achievement Center with everyone dressed in costume. Each student received a bag of candy and a parade was held in the gym. The Homecoming Dance was held in No¬ vember which proved to be fun for all. Re¬ freshments and a live band were provided for everyone’s enjoyment. In order to raise money for the club’s ex¬ penses, they sold carnations at Christmas time and for Valentine’s Day. The members planned a Christmas Dance and Sweetheart’s Dance but, due to unfortu¬ nate circumstances, they were cancelled at the last minute. In the spring an Easter Egg hunt was planned where the children had to find Eas¬ ter candy hidden on their playground. The annual Prom was held again and was a great success. Coursages and buttoneers were given to all those who attended.

YARC 139 American Field Service The AFS domestic program provides the student with an opportunity to explore a new culture and life style within the United States. I have had the chance to get a close look at the people, community, and the school in Medina. I have discovered that there is not a vast difference between Medina, Ohio and my hometown, New Milford, Conneticut. Dee McBreairty Seeing snow for the first time, learning a language on a very accelerated level, and getting settled into a new way of life are among the problems of an American Field Service exchange student. The clubs twenty-five members have fun with the inter¬ national and domestic exchange students by joining them on outings to the roller-skating rink, on picnics and other social events. This year Medina was graced with a host of different people from different states and countries. Also, the club sent students off to various places. Welcomed to Medina were; Yoko Naki- mura from Japan, Kristofer Maansson from Sweden, Alvero Cas- tiiianos from Columbia, Peter Moran from Australia, Catherine Grace from Australia, and Deidee McBrevirty from Conneticut. Among the students MHS sent abroad, were Debbie Mardavich to Norway, Nancy Miller to Bolivia, Scott Martin to New Zealand, and Katherine Vann to Oregon. Returning to Medina this year was Cathy Robertson from Peru. Throughout the year AFS spon¬ sored the concession stand for the girls basketball team, a rock-a-thon held during the summer, and other activities for the exchange students. The officers were President Scott Martin, Vice-President Todd Pype, and Secretary-Treasurer Carol Hall¬ man. They urge everyone to join AFS and share in their exper¬ iences. “Yoko, look into the camera!”, says Carrie Chantler as she catches AFS ex change student Yoko Nakamura off guard.

I loved seeing four seasons instead of two and the excitement of seeing snow for the first time was incredible. I love the life here; it is really terrific, but of course I also love my home. Peter Moran Alvaro Castilanos from Columbia was escorted by his host parents Mr. and Mrs. Gary DeHaas at an earlier football game. After about eight months in the U.S., I can now look back at a lot of enjoyable moments and happy memories, all thanks to the fantastic experience of being a Rotary exchange student, here in this country. I like the U.S. very much, and hope that all exchange students after me will feel the same. Kristofer Means- son “Each day that I spent here has been cherished in my heart for ever and ever. It is something like a treasure for me. I thank everyone who has given me this chance to be in MHS; teachers who have helped me; many friends who have shown me kindness and have given me many good memories. Yoko Nakamura AFS 141 Foreign Language Club Foreign Language Club is for those students interested in languages. In the past the club has been for students taking either French, Spanish, German, or Latin. This year the club changed to include anyone interested in a language. The year began with quite a few activities. The first of these involved the whole club with the sale of candy sticks. In November the club sold candy, popcorn, and pop at the concession stand for the fall play. Their community service project took place in Decem¬ ber. The club made sugar cookies and Christmas decorations and took them to Crestview Nursing Home. It has been a tradi¬ tion to go there and carol through the halls. A smile is the universal language as these Foreign Language Club members show. Row 1: A. Broker, L, Lethco, S. Markert, B. Wetzel, L. Stremple, J. Robinette. Row 1: S. Markert, R. Klein, S.

Daiber The Girls Leadership Club, formed to aid the community, was busy with such projects as meals-on-wheels. This project, designed for the elderly of Medina, brought meals from Crestview Nursing Home to the senior citizen’s homes. GLC also helped children by raising money for gym equipment. In addition they helped the school by selling both football and basketball tickets during school and at games. The girls also functioned as basketball sisters and attended the basketball banquet. Key Club and GLC jointly worked on projects such as the Medina County Easter Egg Hunt, the Cancer drive, and passage of the levy. Money raising projects ranged from selling pom-poms at the games, car washes, to collecting soup labels for profit. This money went towards projects like the gym equipment. Adviser Mrs. Helen Streett said, “This was my first year as adviser for the GLC and it has been a rewarding learning experience with an excellent group of young ladies.” A ticket booth may not seem like home but to GLC members Sue Pettit, Sue Hughes, and Sue Milota, it is where they spent most of their time selling football and basketball tickets.

Work-Study More than seventy students are in¬ volved in our ever growing OWE, OWA, and Work Study groups. When it first be¬ gan in 1968, only 36 schools in Ohio par¬ ticipated in this program. Now more than 500 schools are involved. These worth¬ while programs are opportunities for stu¬ dents to not only work and go to school at the same time, but to earn state and local recognition for achievement, superiority and excellence. The Occupational Work Adjustment (OWA) program is for 14 to 15 year old students. These students are able to work because of a government form stat¬ ing that even though they are under 16, they can work through this program. Jobs range from fast food chains, furniture stores, or funeral and nursing homes. Occupational Work Experience I and II are similar to OWA; only these programs work with 16 year old students and older. Both programs deal with the same kind of jobs except that the older OWE students may also work in factories. All of the stu¬ dents must attend four periods of school a day and must meet all state require¬ ments for graduation. 146 Work-Study O.W.E. II Row 1 — B. Kenzig, C. Sayers, T. Andres, S.

The main objec¬ tives of this program are for the students to gain practical exper¬ ience, good working habits, awareness of personal weak¬ nesses that need improvement. Working at a real job every day makes senior Laurie Floyd interested in many dif¬ ferent aspects of the business world.

Story topics ranged from edito¬ rials to puzzles to an advice column called Dr. Doc. The class interviewed new superintendent Dr. Robert Fenn and helped to pass the levy in February by volunteering to stuff envelopes and run errands. Each staff member was assigned a position on the paper and covered a different best including sports, clubs, music, guidance and academics. Said first year adviser Miss Linda Ocepek, “It ' s not hard to teach a course for the first time when the students you work with are so bright, motivated and willing to work. I hope that all my journalism classes are like this one.” Caught pasting up one of seven Medinamite issues was Editor Lisa Dunn.

Betsy Obloy was selected as the most outstanding cheerleader at camp. Karen Easterday was named to the All Medina County Cheerleading Squad. Sandy Jacobson earned her third year letter for both football and basketball cheerleading, the first student to do so in Medina’s history. Because there was no Pep Club this year, the Football cheerleaders had their hands full with the beginning of the Grid Sister program. Under Captain Joleen Siebert each of the Grid Sister’s was responsible for baking for the football players and decorating their houses. Also, the Varsity and JV cheerleaders delivered Wheaties to the boys’ homes, designed pillow cases and made wake up calls. According to Adviser Jeanne Pritchard, “All the girls are great people and one major factor which contributed to their successful seasons was the leadership provided by the Senior cheerleaders.” Varsity Basketball Cheerleaders 1st Row: Dawn Hefner, Lynn Koerber, Patty Judson, Captain Sandy Jacobson; 2nd Row: Betsy Obloy, Debbie Muhleman, Sharon Schumaker, Sue Hughes.

Students With Spirit Because Pep Club no longer existed this year, a new organization was formed for Varsity football players. Grid Sisters was originated by Mrs. Rose¬ mary Cooksey in order to involve those girls who really wanted to project spirit toward our Football Bees. Lori Sweet and Joleen Seibert were co-presi¬ dents and all activities were led by the cheerleaders. Each cheerleader chose three or four former pep club members to accompany them to decorate play¬ ers’ homes with toilet paper and signs and also to decorate lockers with crepe paper, candy, and cakes. The sisters sponsored a Wheaties” Day and each sister called her football brother early in the morning to wish them good luck. The season ended with a banquet in November held by the Foot¬ ball Mother’s Club. Football charms, blush and per¬ fume were given to each grid sister by her brother. While the girls were cheering the boys on in foot¬ ball, the boys were cheering on the girls as cheer¬ leaders for powderpuff and girls basketball. In addi¬ tion, a new form of spirit hit our school this year with the creation of the Unknown Radicals. Their masked identities were seen at many basketball games lead¬ ing the students in cheers. mances at many basketball games. Spirit 153 Battling On November 7th the senior girls’ powderpuff football team defeated the Cloverleaf Fillies with a score 14-6. The team was lead by captains Leslie Prochaska, Tara Daiber and Sandy Ja¬ cobson. High scorers included Sue Sugden who scored in the first quarter and Patty Judson scoring in the 2nd quarter. Patty also ran in the extra points. The Fillies attempted several trips into Medina’s territory but, were held back until the last play of the game when they made their only touch¬ down. Half-time was high-lighted by the performances of Medina’s male bee- hinders and cheerleaders. Mark Kenski was crowned this year’s Home¬ coming King.

This past season offered some obsta¬ cles for ski club, but the members of the club were determined to make it a suc¬ cessful one. With adviser Mrs. Marlene Jividen suffering from illness for a large part of the season, Mr. Stan O’Connor once again helped out by recruiting mem¬ bers and acting as a “PR” man. Phone calls were many between Presi¬ dent Dave Gill and Mrs. Jividen as they kept the group together. Although the weather did not always prove to be ac¬ ceptable, the times that skiing was possi¬ ble turned out to be fun for all. A new feature of ski club was an added session on Monday afternoons for Junior High stu¬ dents. Caught putting their boots on in preparation for going out on the slopes, Dorothy Johnston, Tracey Mahota, Lilly Benisch, and Lisa Moucha smile for Mr. O’Connor’s camera.

Clubs 157 Flashback: The Year In Review While important national and international events conspired to make their mark on the history books, the Medinian staff researched those school events that would make this history book an outstanding memory of the 1980-81 school year. Yearbook as a class some¬ times moved slowly when no deadlines were due and other times required more work than it seemed possible to ever finish. That every student and faculty member is mentioned and every event, significant and sometimes insignifi¬ cant, is recorded or pictured is a tribute to the staff’s dedication and hard work. We did not feel this book would be complete, however, if we did not name some of the world and national events that influenced our lives this school year. What follows is a quick review of the year. (Linda Ocepek-Adviser) September, 1980: The first free labor union is formed in Poland . . Under Captain Ted Turner, America continues its domination of the American Cup sailing competition. October, 1980: Iran and Iraq start a Middle East war and our oil supplies are in danger. . . The Philadel¬ phia Phillies defeat the Kansas City Royals to win the World Series. November, 1980: Ronald Reagan defeats Jimmy Carter in the race for President of the United States. December, 1980: Former Beatle, John Lennon, is murdered outside of his New York City apartment. January, 1981: The Americans held hostage in Iran for 444 days are liberated . . . Reagan is inaugurated as our 40th President . .. The Oakland Raiders defeat the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl. February, 1981: Worst hotel fire in Las Vegas history takes many lives in a blaze at the MGM Grand Hotel. March, 1981 President Reagan is shot in an assasination attempt. April, 1981: The Space Shuttle “Columbia is successfully launched and landed. May, 1981: Pope John Paul II survives an assasination attempt. June, 1981: Major league baseball teams go on strike. Vicki Swingle served as editor-in-chief of the Medinian. 1st Row - J. Staufer, R.

(Wide World Photo) Former Beatle Shot to Death — Former Beatle John Lennon speaking at a peace rally in New York in 1972 with wife Yoko Ono next to him, was shot to death outside of his New York City apartment. Lennon and his wife were deeply involved in the peace movement during the 70’s.

Led by their enthusiastic officers, President Leslie Prochaska and Board Members Dan Krosse, Bob Swingle, and Sue Pettit, Drama Club achieved many things. This year the club put on the fall play The Curious Savage and also a successful SPICE program. In addition many members participated in the spring musical Brigadoon, Drama Club members who meet the qualifications were eligible to join the National Thespian Society. Thespians is not a school club but rather an honorary national organization. To become a Thespian a person has to earn ten points. Each point represents ten hours of work whether in acting or working backstage. Each Thespian has worked in at least two different areas of the theater including acting, singing, stage crew, light¬ ing and sound crews, make-up, tickets, and publicity. Striking a hammy pose are the Thespians: Dave Handy and Leslie Prochaska on piano stool; Jim Stacy with crystal ball; Sandy Jacobson and Claudia Van Horsten on piano; Bob Swingle guarding the motley bunch; standing, Lisa Dunn, Bonnie Wassel, Cheryl McNeil, Linda Lucht, Jeff Frazier and Carol Smolko. 160 Drama Club Drama Club First Row: Dan Krosse.

TECHIES Technical crews are the unseen backbone of the drama program. Lighting Crew is only noticed when it makes a mistake. The light crew is re¬ sponsible for planning, designing, and running the lights. The set crew is re¬ sponsible for building and painting the set. Also people are chosen from the set crew to work backstage (moving the set) the nights of the show. The sound crew works mainly with tape re¬ corders, microphones, and making sure the right sounds are heard at the right time. The make-up and cos¬ tume crews work with the actors. They are in charge of making sure the actors look right. The make-up crew applies the make-up on the actors. The cos¬ tume crew has to make sure that all costumes are issued and returned in good shape. Ticket and publicity crews make sure there is an audience to enjoy the show. Working diligently on the Brigadoon set are some of the Drama Club techies. The crew for Curious Savage stands in front of their handiwork. 1st row: L. Prochaska, C. Davis, C. McNeil, H. Beish, R.

Drama Club 161 Long rehearsals, missed lines, and downright frustra¬ tion are among the problems of directing and acting in a play. The Curious Savage was no exception! Besides all of the hard work, there were advantages like meeting new people and making friends and learning the ins and outs of the high school stage. The movement of the play evolved around the mischie¬ vous yet well-meaning actions of Mrs. Ethel P. Savage. Mrs. Savage acquired $10 million from her late husband’s estate. She insisted on giving it to charities. Her greedy children thought that it could be put to better uses . . . theirs! In an attempt to gain control of Mrs. Savage and her money, her children place her in a private mental institution and then the fun begins. The Cast (in order Florence. Hannibal. Fairy May. Jeffrey.

In addition to the evening performances this year, a spe¬ cial Spice was put on during the school day on January 9 as a fund raiser for Jim Fritz, a 1979 graduate who was seriously injured in an automobile accident. The show, emceed by Mark Kenski, Dave Lou- din, George Promenschenkel, and Steve Snyder showed talented students from every grade. Freshmen Leigh-Ann Lethco and Jackie Labbe performed Longer” while thirteen sophomore girls sang and danced to Sesame Street . Juniors Bob Swingle, Molly Kuehn, and Ginger Mathews were crowd pleasers with solo numbers.

Brigadoon, a Scottish town that appears only once every 100 years, brought its mystery and magic to the Medina stage on April 3, 4, and 5. While Bob Swingle as the American Tommy Albright and Jennifer Imig as the beautiful Scottish lass Fiona provided the sentimental love interest, impish Meg Brockie played by Molly Kuehn and worldly Jeff Douglas played by Grant Keehn brought comic relief. A bagpiper, kilts for the dancers, and an interesting series of mishaps made this an unusual production. Misfortune struck early in the week of the show when Bob Swingle lost his voice to a bad cold. Fortunately, by Thursday he was able to sing. Friday night found Bob accidently step¬ ping through the paper mache mountain set crew had careful¬ ly made. Senior Jim Stacy as Andrew MacLaren produced the best laugh of the night on Saturday when in a loud voice he declared that it was time to “get some glen in the food. Saturday night ended with a touch of sadness as music director Mr. Charles Carey announced his retirement at the end of the year. The members of the cast and concert choir presented him with a live pine tree as a remembrance. Special recognition should be mentioned for Bonnie Was- sel, dance choreographer; Beth Brown, rehearsal accompa¬ nist; and Linda McClure who drew the program cover pictured above.

The Medina Marching Band marched and played its way into the hearts of the football fans in the 1980 season by entertaining through mud, rain, and general foul weather. Spirit, pride, and concern described the atti¬ tude of the band this year. According to Director Gary Ciulla, “The Marching Band made excellent progress this season and I couldn’t be happier as a first year director. I feel the group has a great deal of untapped potential. In the com¬ ing year I will be striving to use their potential more fully.’’ Leading the band this year was Drum Ma¬ jor, Sean McAlonan, followed by senior ma¬ jorettes, Terri Cerny, Barb Ferguson, and Jackie Grubb. Also making up the front line were the Beeliners, under the direction of Captain, Bonnie Wassel, and Lineleaders, Jennifer Imig, Liz Dick, and Pam Bostwick. Clad in their sharp, new uniforms the Musi¬ cal Marching Bees, guided by President Leslie Prochaska, performed at all ten foot¬ ball games.

At the last home football game, seniors were honored by Director Gary Ciulla, seen here giving a congratulatory hug to Sue Pettit, as Lesile Pro- chaska, Kristen Riedel and Phil Smith wait.

Tryouts are held in April with prac¬ tice beginning in May and running through February. The girls attended Marching Auxilar- ies Camp at Ashland College in late July. Here they learned routines which they performed throughout the year. Upon returning from camp, they attend¬ ed our own Marching Band Camp. This year proved to be a very busy one for the girls who not only per¬ formed at football games but at pep rallies, the Copley Band Festival and Basketball and soccer games as well. They were led by Captain Bonnie Wassel, and Lineleaders Pam Bostwick, Liz Dick, and Jennifer Imig. Miss Marianne Cochran served as ad¬ viser. Performing to Hot Stuff during the first pep rally of the season are beeliners, Susan Gallagher and Cathy Bryenton. 180 Beeliners Majorettes Twirl To Firsts Under the direction of Adviser Mary Eleo, the Majorettes had a very productive year, bringing home two National titles. Two time Head Majorette Terri Cerny along with Barb Ferguson and Jackie Grubb composed this year’s squad. The girls attended the All- Buckeye Camp this past summer where they won the Outstanding Squad Award. They also competed at the Ohio Institute Compe¬ tition where they twirled and danced their way to a first place showing. Tryouts are held in March with practice beginning shortly after and continuing throughout the school year. They also at¬ tend Marching Band Camp the last two weeks of August in preparation for the up¬ coming season. They not only performed at football games but at pep rallies and band festivals as well. Head Majorette Terri Cerny performs to Tusk during the first pep rally of the season. Majorettes 181 Symphonic Band And Stardusters “Superior” and “Excellent are two words which describe this year’s Symphon¬ ic Band led by Director Miss Nancy McNeal. At least that’s what the judges decided in area contests. In March, the Band received a Superior Rating at the District VI Band and Choir Con¬ test held at Akron Firestone. In addition, the Band participated in the Northeast Region State Band and Choir Contest at Akron Uni¬ versity in April where they received an Ex¬ cellent Rating. Symphonic Band members, who play ei¬ ther wind or percussion instruments, began their year at the second quarter after March¬ ing Band season was over. Meeting first pe¬ riod every day, they practiced and prepared for both contests and concert perfor¬ mances. Two of these performances includ¬ ed the County Festival of Concert Bands held here in the high school in February and the 14th Annual Medina Band Festival held at the Junior High in May.

Led by Director Gary Ciulla, the band performed at Spice, Showtime, the Spring Band Concert and a dinner at Heritage. In addition, they participated in the Coun¬ ty Jazz Festival held at Black River. The twenty or so member group re¬ hearsed every Monday and Thursday after their formation in November. Each person was chosen after an audi¬ tion and according to Mr. Ciulla, the ensemble is “a very select group of musicians.” The group’s instrumenta¬ tion included five saxes, five trom¬ bones, five trumpets, and a rhythm section of piano, bass, and drums. Music 183 Orchestra Composed Of Select Group Both Symphonic and String Orchestra are composed of those who have the ability to perform high school level music. Members usually have three to five years of previous playing experience. Those wind and percus¬ sionists involved with Symphonic Orchestra are chosen by audition and recommendation of the band directors. Symphonic and String Orchestras differ in the sense that Symphonic Orchestra includes winds and percus¬ sion aside from strings as well as only using one player per part. Both orchestras play pieces which encompass the entire history of instrumental music from 1750 to pre¬ sent day composition. Members of the orchestras entered the Ohio Music Educators Association District VI Solo and Ensemble Contest. The String Choir and String Quartet each won a I Rating while the Violin Quartet and String Sextet received a II Rating. Violin solos Stephanie Huber and Connie Walter received a I Rating, Helen Hegorty, a II Rating and Larry Horvitz, a III Rating. Students accepted by audition for the Northeast Ohio Regional Orchestra were Stephanie Huber, Connie Wal¬ ter, Anna Brafchak, Kevin Kunkel, Laura Gregg, Larry Horvitz, Eric Herman, and Mark Linderman.

March 14. Taking a foreign language provides students with the knowledge of other cultures as well as a second tongue. Studying a language isn’t all grammar and culture, it also involves other opportunities. For the second year in a row the French students got the chance to teach the elementary chil¬ dren from Heritage, Ella Canavan, Sidney Fenn and Garfield schools. The children were taught some survival French to help them break the language barrier when the French students came in March. Miss Maria Pokrandt’s Spanish classes at¬ tended a Spanish mass at Saint Michael’s church in Cleveland. After the mass, they went to Villa Y Zapata restaurant, also in Cleveland. All second, third and fourth year Spanish stu¬ dents attended the ballet folklorics” at the Akron Civic Theatre.

History 205 Vocational School Meets Varied Needs Contrary to popular belief, there is more to being a student at the Medina County Joint Vocational School than learning a trade.” It is true that there are many different programs in which one can enjoy a truly rewarding experience. However, many people are not aware of the other vocational experiences. Each class belongs to one of four youth clubs including HERO (Home Economics and Related Occupations), OEA (Office Edu¬ cation of America), VICA (Vocational Industrial Clubs of Amer¬ ica), and FFA (originally Future Farmers of America, but now including all areas of vocational agriculture.) Each vocational program is a chapter of the appropriate club. For example, Culinary Arts belongs to HERO and Environmental Science to FFA. Each student, upon entering a JVS program, also becomes a member of the appropriate club. Participation in the clubs includes meetings, election of officers, conducting money raising projects and participation in skills contests, awards, and conventions. Each club has its own fund-raising methods, but for some classes they are continuous. Animal Care FFA operates the Groom Roon, for the washing and clipping of dogs and care of small pets. The Groom Room is open to the public, as are the Fig Tree Shop, selling plants and flowers, and the New Images Salon operated by the Senior Cosmetology class. (Copy written by Donna Arnold.

For years, Medina High School has carried on a tradition of excellence, not only in academics but also in sports, music, other school-sponsored ac¬ tivities, and the faculty. The staff consists of three administrators, five full time counselors, 75 classroom teachers, and one professional librarian assisted by two aides. Approximately 60% of the staff have master’s de¬ grees or higher, with an average of 16.9 years of experience. In questioning the staff this year, the objective was to find out interesting or unusual information about the backgrounds and personalities of the teachers. This was accomplished with questions such as, “If you had not become a teacher, what would you have become?’’; or “What sports re¬ cord do you wish you could hold?”. More ques¬ tions were also added about pets, and even pet peeves. Some of the teachers offered pieces of advice for the students, as Mr. Doug Walker who said, “Always give your best; anything less isn’t worthy of your time.” The staff plays a big part in the school’s extra curricular activities by serving as coaches, advis¬ ers, promoters, and motivaters.

MEDINA, OHIO PHONE 725-6445 256 Advertising Advertising 257 Odds Ends: A Few Parting Shots Playing a drunken bridegroom in Brigadoon found Ricky Mathews needing assistance from Doug Eastwood and Pat May. Seen here before getting ready on the night of a performance of Brigadoon, musical director Sue Cowden planned to take a leave of absence for the 1981-82 school year so she won ' t get to see this picture until she receives this book in the mail in Boston. High school may be a traumatic experience for some young people but Karen Jividen was able to cope quite well. 258 Odds Ends Left: Trapped in the wrong age, Latin teacher Mike Davanzo tries to make do in these modern times by modeling his toga once a year during his lecture on Roman clothing. Above: I am so beautiful ... Grant Keehn shows off his acting form in Brigadoon. What big eyes you have, Peter. Exchange student Peter Moran from Australia clowns at a basketball game. In Memoriam Doctor Simon Shrinkenhudles (top) died this year after answering too many obscene Medinamite Letters. Following in his fa¬ ther’s footsteps, Sylvester Shrinkenhudles (above) took over the practice. Both are close friends of Junior Laura Schirripa. sr Odds Ends 259 Teacher ' s Pet Frank B. Pritchard, owned by Miss Jeanne Pritchard and a life¬ long resident of Medina (two years) loves watching his favorite show, General Hospital and counting his toys. Sun Tan Team members Mark Kenski (smiling) and Dave Loudin (sleeping) catch some rays during commons in November. “I know I ' m standing here for a reason; I just can ' t remember why.” Senior Matt Platz often became confused when taking pictures for the yearbook. More often than not he appeared in the pictures he was supposed to be taking. Happy 18th Birthdayll Robin Wittmer survives a traditional birthday beating in the commons. 260 Odds Ends Cartoonist and Senior Linda McClure drew one final high school cartoon as a farewell to the class of 1981. During the year she was responsible for drawing cartoons for the Medinamite and program covers for Brigadoon and Showtime. Mr. Berger didn’t always teach math . . .

Meeting deadlines, making decisions, organizing and help¬ ing other staff members are just a few of the re¬ sponsibilities of the editor. However, the year¬ book could never be completed by the work of the editor alone. Without the help of an advisor as well as every other member of the staff, the production of the yearbook could never be the successful operation that it is. We were very lucky this year when English teacher, Miss Linda Ocepek, agreed to serve as yearbook advisor. A very active staff member in all capacities, this very special lady has to be one of the most organized and hard working individ¬ uals one could ever meet. It was for this reason we met every one of our deadlines and finished the book two and one half months ahead of last year ' s schedule. A special thank you is also to be ex¬ tended to fellow staff members Matt, Wendy, Sheri, Lynn, Jim, Sue, Roger, Glenda, Karen, Ken, Carrie, Jeff, Jerry, Elaine, Jennifer, Cynthia, Charmy, Ron, Chris and Beth for their never end¬ ing hard work and dedication. I’ll miss you all. Best of Luck to next year ' s editors, Karen Pope-Carr and Ken Hotz.
