“Mirror” Reflects New Image Merrillville High School has been without a school paper since 1975. At the end of the first semester, Mr. Woods, sponsor, interviewed students and a class was formed for the second semester. Under the leadership of Edi- tor Larry Lavery, the work began to produce the Mirror. With the coopera- tion of the graphic arts department, four issues were printed and sold. The Senior Edition was the final publica- tion which included class wills, class election results, sports, and baby pic- tures. With very little background in journalism the newly formed staff did an excellent job in producing a quality paper and a class has already been formed for next year.

a ©caasaes ©p ©aes Merrillville High School has tried something new this year, Activity Day. Every other Wednesday after second hour the students go to their desig- nated activity for an hour. Some of the activities include running, pottery, make-up class, cooking, computer pro- cessing, and basketball. This has been very successful because students get a break from their studies to learn and participate in other activities. 21

Soccer Team Fights For Rating Merrillville’s soccer team, coached by Mr. Holubec and assistant coaches Steve Jasnic and Tom Metlovsky, had a fine season. Although the team is not considered a sport but an extracurricu- lar activity right now, they are fighting hard to get it rated as an M.H.S. sport. The coaches held practices three times a week for two hours each. The boys worked very hard and are looking forward to playing again next year. Upper Far Right: Theo Manglis plans his next move.
