MILAN HIGH SCHOOL 19 83 1 WARPATH BOX 307 MILAN, INOIANA 17031 Volume XIV REBUS JUST A PART OF US JUST A PART Time spent together makes us realize what this school means to us. Those of us who have been here for many years have had the pleasure of becoming a part of the new beginning. Just as the people’s faces have changed, so has the school. At the beginning of each year we add new students to our school; just as we lose many fine students at graduation. When a new year takes shape, students start to become more in- volved in activities that the school has to offer. Attending high school helps you to prepare for your future opportunities. yilUK TOP: Waiting patiently for the next class to start, Gary Lauber sits quietly in the chairs opposite the office.” MIDDLE: Emphasizing a point, Denise Lovins converses with her friends.

THE THRILL OF VICTORY The 19th annual Homecoming celebration was a day of memorable events. Activities began with the annual girls’ Powder Puff game, with the Seniors beating the Juniors, 21-0. During halftime of the evening’s game, excitement mounted as the queen candidates were escorted onto the field. Stacey Delap was crowned 1982-83 Homecoming queen.

This suc- cessful comedy, directed by Mrs. Mix, was about an airline whose motto was, “if you’re going to fly, take a plane, and if you take a plane. Go Bananas!” Mr. Hunger’s Theatrical Fine Arts Class contributed many hours of work making the props for the play. “Airline” was performed three times, for the junior high school students, the senior high school students, and the public. The cast of crazy, zany airline passengers and crew had as much fun perfor- ming this play as the audience did watching it.

The cast took the audience through the history and songs of certain colors. The songs, played by Mr. Schein and the stage band, all had a certain color aspect which made it more interesting. Many months of hard work practicing and preparing for the show paid off as this year’s pro- gram was a huge success. Again this year, a dinner theater was held by the art club before the last performance.

Receiving a reward, whether for perfect attendance, honor roll, or scholastic achievement, gave many students a feeling of accomplishment. The medals, pins and scholar- ships were presented at an even- ing program attended by relatives and friends.

Before long, the stage, used as the dance floor, became full. Later, the meal was served, then some en- joyed more dancing, while others relaxed and listened. The theme of the 1983 Junior- Senior Prom was “Ice Castles”. TOP LEFT: Enjoying the evening together, Dennis Knapp and Paulene Anderson take time to see what else is going on around them.

We were very fortunate to have several of these programs during the year. Most of the programs were selected for educational reasons as well as entertainment. Among the programs chosen by the Student Council were The Dog Show,” and “The Juggler.” Student productions included the Drama Club play, the Spectacular, and a pantomime program for junior high by the Theatrical Fine Arts class.

Thoughts turned to yesterday; growing up, grade school memories, faded friend- ships, past romances, and that best friend. Sunday, May 22, was a day so long awaited, yet seeming to arrive too soon. This was a very special day for the 94 graduating seniors, the largest class to ever graduate from Milan High School.

The members of the choir pro- duced a pop rock musical for the community. The production had six main characters played by Bart Gauck, Rick Shay, Warren Gay, Dara Turner, Melody Elliot, and Julie Schmitt. The choir started rehearsing the songs featured in the program, in November. Practicing began in the month of December with the open- ing of the program in late January. The program was presented four times to the school and community. “Teen,” was put together to show what problems and learning stages a 13 and 14 year old may go through. The overall effect of the program was overwhelming. 32 THROUGH JUNIOR HIGH MUSICAL TOP LEFT: While at the teen dance, Dara Turner, Melody Elliot and Julie Schmitt gather to talk about the guys.

Not knowing anyone or how they will react to you seems pretty scary. Being in a totally different culture and trying to learn new ideas would present problems that most of us would never foresee. This year Milan had such a stu- dent from Japan, who came to the U.S. for her senior year. Although Yuka graduated with the class of 1983, she will return to Japan and also graduate there. Yuka participated in many sports that Milan offered such as volleyball, basketball, and tennis. In tennis, Yuka held a record of 10-4. Japanese school is a little dif- ferent from the U.S. Their school day is from 8:40 a.m.-3:15 p.m. and the school week is longer than the U.S. Japanese students go to school on Saturday and then get off on Sunday. They are required to learn the English language in Junior High. Yuka was quoted as saying, “I began to learn English in 7th grade and I liked it so much.” In Japan, Yuka lives with her mother, father and younger brother, Shinji. Yuka’s father works for a Toyota office and her 34 mother is a housewife. The American teenager might take the car for granted but the Japanese teenager isn’t allowed to drive. To get to their designation, their main transportation is the train. As the American teenager, they like movies, parties and being out with friends. They watch television and listen to radio, also. Some of the favorite programs in Japan are “Little House on the Prairie,” professional baseball and “Laverne and Shirley.” One of the more famous singers is Billy Joel. The Japanese taste buds may be a little more extravagant than the U.S. Unlike the American ham- burger, fries and coke, Yuka’s favorite Japanese dish is Sushi, raw fish. Even so, Yuka has had a taste of the American foods and she seems to think turkey and piz- za are the best. Yuka’s future plans are to return to Japan and work for a travel ggftdOMt company. She wants to help tourists learn the customs and ideas of her country the way she learned about America. Yuka is quoted as saying, “To tell the truth, before I came here I really didn’t want to come because 1 was so afraid of a strange life. But I’m so glad that I could make up my mind to come here. You, whole Milan’s people, are so nice and I really appreciate you.” ?, Love Truth 1L If Friendship |U V ' a; 35 Memories GMOTIOrihL netvCTIOMS Expressions show whether a person is happy, sad, upset, angry, in a daze or just not in the swing of things. If all expressions were the same, the world would be a boring place to live. During a typical school day, the students have a variety of expres- sions. Expressions, you may say make up a big part of everyone’s day. TOP: Tedium reaches Karen Haase’s face while she chats with Bill Schmitt. MIDDLE LEFT: Bill Treadway enjoys his day at school.

Coach Huffman worked with a very young team consisting of one senior, three juniors, eight sophomores and one freshman. The boys were faced with some tough competition and played their hardest; but losing close matches, such as South Dearborn 3-2 were great disappointments. The boys did defeat Brownstown Central 3-2. Ted Smith was the only player to advance in the sectional, defeating East Central. In the second match the No. 2 seated player fell short to Lawrenceburg.

Coach Lockwood trained six girls, mostly freshmen and juniors, in this competitive sport. The season started slowly but after losing a tough and close match against South Dearborn, the girls grew more determined to win. Their practice and hard work rewarded them as they placed sixth in the Conference and sixth in the Sectional. Melissa McKittrick, freshman, lead the team with an average score of 54. The girls learned many new techniques about the sport and had fun with their first organized team. TOP LEFT: Swinging powerfully, No. 3 seated Teresa Davies tees off at the 8th hole.

BOTTOM RIGHT: After a quick pep talk by Coaches Thomas and Hornbach, the In- dians were ready for action. Long hours of hard work on the practice field supplied local teams with tough competition from Milan. Joining a new conference with challenging competition, the explosive Indians furnished the home fans with many exciting games. A few highlights of the season were defeating many of the larger schools, such as Park Tutor, Edin- burgh and Brookville, earning the Indians a 5-4 record, the first win- ning season since 1972. A new feature this year was the support of local businesses. Businesses around town recogniz- ed outstanding players with a “Player of the Week” title. This ad- ded an extra incentive to the team members and was a driving force for victories. TOP RIGHT: Milan defense, coached by Ken Hornbach, stops the opposing offense from scoring.

TOP RIGHT: BOYS' CROSS COUNTRY: Row 1—Neal Gay, Doug Bergman, Joe Burdette, Russ Griffith. Tom McKittrick, Nelson Gay.

BOTTOM: The start and the finish: Milan runners start in a triple meet against Jac- Cen-Del and Laurel. Finishing with an ex- hausting glance at the watch, Joe Burdette crosses the line. and Stephanie Hinkle. The girls won several ribbons as individual finishers but it was impossible to bring home any victories. For the boys, cross country runn- ing was a test of strength and en- durance. In this sport, the team with the least amount of points wins the meet. Points are added as the three-mile run is finished. The boys team had three victories. POWER cr THE SPIRE! Volleyball is one of the most popular sports for girls at Milan. The sport requires strength, flex- ibility and aggressiveness. This year’s girls were very ag- gressive at the net and spiking. Throughout the season the leather ball was spiked to the floor 555 times, a vast improvement. Ex- cellent serving proved to be another great aspect to the season. The girls served 87 per cent as a team and several individuals serv- ed in the high 90’s. The reserve team had an ex- citing season with nine victories and eight defeats. The girls earned the title of runner-up in the Reserve Tourney.

Inadequate shooting, passing, and rebounding handicapped the team in many games. Lack of height was also a major factor compared to local teams. The boys greatest aspect of working together was their ag- gressive defense. Their defensive plays were skillfully planned and carefully executed. Their quick ac- tions enabled them to come close to many victories only to fall short because of foul trouble. The Reserve team broke even with a record of 9-9 to end their season. Lack of height didn't seem to slow these guys down. Their ability to pull together and work competitively made their season pay off.

Thrilling moments included their first conference win, beating East Central 36-31 and the unbelievable moments of the 1983 Girls’ Sectional Finals against the Batesville Bulldogs. Jackie Meinders and Anita Holt were selected for the All-sectional team. Jackie Meinders was also selected as the most valuable player for sectional and in addition the All-tourney in Ripley County.

All-Conference sprinter Mark Nickulis shattered the record for the 400 meter dash placing third in the Sectional and tenth for the 100 meter. Advancing to the Regional he placed 14th in the 400 meter. The 400 meter relay team of Mike Biddle, Jim Myers, Steve Schwipps, and Charlie Love traveled to the Sectional in their quest for victory and placed 10th. Along with the 400 meter relay team, Nelson Gay represented Milan in the 3200 meter run, plac- ing 9th. Mike Biddle joined in to participate in the long jump but was shut out in the trials.

A TROPHY COMES THROUGH A first class trophy prevailed at Edinburgh in which the girls won every relay event. Five girls qualified to show their talents in the Sectional. Jackie Meinders competed in the shot put and discus. Stephanie Hinkle bat- tled in the long jump and 100 meter. The 400 meter relay team of Terri Bible, Anita Holt, Rachelle Fledderman, and Stephanie Hinkle also fought in the Sectional. Of the five, one pushed ahead to Regional level of competition where she placed fourth and then to the ultimate goal of State com- petition—the girl, Jackie Meinders; the event, shot put. But Jackie was halted in the trials of the State. She scratched on possibly the best throw of her track career when she stepped over the line. She was a true athlete in every aspect of the phrase. Jackie will always have great influence on future athletes.

Coach Horton had the guys running at 6:30 in the mornings. If they wanted to play baseball, they were going to work and be good at the game. The Varsity team ended their season with a record of 8-10 and 4-7 in the Conference. Jim Myers was the only player to make All-Conference and tied with Ran- dy Scudder as leading hitter with a batting average of .396. The Reserve team went through a building process with Coach Wall as their leader.

Coach Lockwood discussing new techniques on style was not unusual. Although boys golf is a minor sport, it continues to grow from year to year. Golf takes time to learn and to perfect. This year’s team placed 7th in the Conference and 21st in the Sectional. Lack of members seem- ed to hurt the team the most. Senior Ed McKittrick was the most valuable team member. He ranked 17th out of 33 in the EIAC, and 42nd out of 100 in the Sectional. Jeff Schomick had an average of 66.1 a game—very good for a freshman.

Members of the staff worked together and shared their ideas to finish what seemed to be a never- ending job! INFORMING OTHERS The newspaper staff is responsi- ble for the publishing of the Totem Post. The newspaper is a way of informing students monthly of what’s happening in school sports, news, and other various activities inside of the school. To help pay for the publishing of the newspaper, the staff sold ads. TOP: Row 1: Becky McIntosh, Trisha Purcell, Mr. Adams, Mary Reuter, Lisa Bergeron.

Future Homemakers of America is an organized club which teaches young girls the basic fundamentals of homemaking. In this club, the girls learned about new management and future careers in the home and out- side the home. The members of FHA did many generous things for the people in the community. At Thanksgiving the girls baked pumpkin pies for senior citizens. At Easter the girls made fruit baskets for the men and women at the nurs- ing home. Caroling at Christmas was a special treat for the club members. During the year, FHA sponsored a fan bus to an away basketball game and a dance for the student body. As their reward for such a great year, the girls went to Cincinnati to eat at the Brown Derby and to see the movie, “One Dark Night.” TOP: FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA: Row t: Beth Richardson, Lori Bruns, Michele Disney.

Many hours of hard work went into the production of two comedy plays presented by the Drama Club. “Santa Sees a Shrink,” a one act Christmas play, and “Airline,” the club’s successful three act spr- ing play, were both big hits. As a reward for their hard work and support, a group of seven seniors and Mrs. Mix went to Beef-N-Boards in Indianapolis. They enjoyed a delicious buffet dinner after seeing the live stage show, “They’re Playing Our Song.” The annual “Turkey of the Year” contest was Mr. White.

EXPLORING HISTORICAL LANDMARKS An active organization, the Junior Historical Society was a group of students who were eager to learn about historical landmarks around them. The club took many field trips which included the Indiana State Library, the State Capitol and a train ride from Connersville to Metamora. They went to Mrs. Fritch’s home to see her husband’s collection of Indian artifacts. Visiting cemeteries was also one of the club’s interests, as they ex- plored several different cemeteries in little country towns. All of these activities enabled them to learn and discover the history of Indiana. TOP: Designing the show window, Scot McKittrick displays the club's idea of spring.

It was a great honor for the students in this organization to be recogniz- ed for their high achievements. After all, being able to maintain a 3.0 grade point average wasn’t so easy. Mrs. Droege’s Future Teachers of America organization had a very busy year. Besides tutoring students who needed help with studies, they also graded papers for teachers.

Also as part of giv- ing their singing talent to others, they gave a short program downtown to the elderly. Having changed their names from Glee Club to Swing Choir gave the group a whole new range of music to perform.

VICTORY OR DEFEAT Cheerleading is fun and is rewarding in its own way. The girls sacrificed many hours to practice jumps, cheers, and floor formations.

Being a member of the Junior High Chess Club meant something to these boys. They meet during activity period on Tuesday and Wednes- day of each week. This club gave the boys an op- portunity to have fun and to learn how to make decisions and what may or may not be a wise move in chess. The club members were given a chance to participate in a Chess Tournament. This year’s winner was Scott Bowcock with the run- nerup being Greg Gray.

Not everyone knows how agriculture plays such an im- portant role in today’s society, but in agriculture students learned the importance through their classes and a variety of projects. A state FFA officer who summarized what the state chapter is currently ac- complishing was a special guest speaker. The classes were very active and successful in many judging events, such as livestock, forestry, and dairy. In September the agriculture class took a field trip to the Farm Progress Show at Walcott, Indiana. TOP LEFT: After completing his work, Chris Stutler smiles studiously.

ARTISTIC ABILITIES In addition to studying the techniques of print design, pain- ting, and clay sculpturing, the classes studied art eras and history and art styles of other countries. Several of the students were successful in the art shows they entered. Heidi Rumsey won best of show at the Aurora Farmers’ Fair. Dave Weisbrod received a Certificate of Merit. Karen McDonald won a Gold Key Finalist award in regional com- petition in Indianapolis and was a medal winner in competition in New York.

Classes in typing, shor- thand, accounting, and other general business topics were offered. The year 1983 was a year for some new equipment to be in- troduced in the business rooms. Several IBM Selectric electronic typewriters were moved in and the run-down manuals were finally moved out. Another new idea was the use of computers in indepen- dent accounting studies and secretarial skills class. TOP LEFT: Concentration and frustration prove to be characteristics of this Typing I class.

English has always had quite the reputation for not being the most exciting subject, but English teachers try their best to make it bearable. They taught students things about grammar; such as, nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, conjunctions, and interjections. They assigned students reports, short stories, fables, classwork assignments, and speeches. This year Ball State University had a contest for stories and poetry. Julie Schmitt won 3rd place with her short story “Just Like a Teenager.” TOP LEFT: Western Literature says it all as Mike Murphy, Randy Kirk and Greg Willhite enjoy their brief session on short stories.

Learning a new language was an interesting challenge for students who chose to follow this course. In both the German and Spanish areas, students learned to read and speak the language and they studied the culture and history of the countries. As activities, in German the students composed television com- mercials, had T-shirts made with a German saying printed on the shirt, and wrote pen pals across the ocean. Over spring break, Miss Kramer, Paula Meyer, Jamie Sue Knowlton, Tim Cottingham, Larry Conradi, Roy Baker and Steve Schwipps visited Germany, Switzerland and Sweden. In Spanish, their activities were sing- ing Christmas carols, having a Spanish puppet show, and writing Spanish stories.

Home Economics was more than sewing and baking. It included taking care of babies, preparing for a wedding, and even managing a home for you or an older member of the family. This year the boys in the Single Livings class were taught sewing, cooking, and home management. They were required to learn everything that the girls did.

Learning about childbirth, birth control, and general health basics were only a few things discussed in health class. The health classes went on several field trips in- cluding the Mental Health Center and the Dearborn County Hospital. They also had guest speakers on drugs and alcohol. This year for the first time, drug abuse was introduced. Students learned how the use and effects of drug and alcohol affect their health. They learned Car- diopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and first aid. The students who participated in physical education learned and competed in sports such as volleyball, soccer, basketball, and tennis. The physical education class learned several types of dances—modern, folk and jazz dance and square dancing with aerobics included in the program. For the first time, a self improve- ment program was organized by Miss Klinker for the girls. It in- cluded how to wear makeup and different hair styles which added a different concept to physical education.

No, it’s biology class. Rabbits (running wild), fish, frogs, hamsters, and a turtle (the class pet) were some of the menagerie collected for study and observa- tion. Also a part of biology were special projects, such as leaf and insect collections. Last but not least was the annual birdhouse contest won by Wendy Anderson. Chemistry was often a challenge to students as experiments were conducted for educational pur- poses with only an occasional mild explosion.

GOES SKIING The P.V.E. class, taught by Mrs. Huffman, was a thriving class. The class participated in many ac- tivities such as the Olympics and basketball games with other schools. The class took a trip to Perfect Slopes to participate in the skiing activities. Another trip was taken to the State Capitol and Hyatt Regency. The class learned to balance checkbooks and fill out job applications. Boys and girls both had a chance to learn to cook. TOP LEFT: Jenny Kersey waits patiently for help.

Civics included the study of the weather; psychology, the study of human behavior. Government and world history were other classes offered in this curriculum. TOP RIGHT: Trying to find the exact loca- tion of the country, Tara Love and Hollee Voss peer at the map together.

The new class was Algebra I which was taught at the freshman level. The eighth grade class adven- tured into new encounters like the DAR, Public Service, and the spelling bee. Julie Schmitt was the winner of the spelling bee and represented Milan at the regional spelling bee in Cincinnati. As a reward for surviving the year, the students took a train ride from Connersville to Metamora.

Many students at Milan High School have special hobbies and talents outside ot school. One of these students is senior. Heidi Rumsey. Heidi has always loved horses and country music. When she was seven years old, she got her first horse. Since then, she has become a very good rider. She rides bareback, races, jumps, and also barrel races. Her goal is to canter her horse without a bridle. Playing the guitar helps express her love of country music. Heidi can play the six strinc and twelve string guitars. Also, she is learning to play the banio. She reads music, but plays mostly by ear. Heidi hopes to always nave horses. She also wants to continue playing the guitar for as long as she can. YOUNG CRAFTSMEN Creativity with the hands and mind are essential in becoming your own carpenter. This year our school had two very talented boys, Joe Burdette and Lonnie Feller. After seeing an advertisement, Joe Burdette had the idea to design and build a Grandmother clock, Lonnie Feller found his idea in a catalogue; he then built a coffee table for a living room. Having experience with work- ing with wood and other materials, the projects went without much hassle. Joe’s materials were brought in from his home; Lonnie’s materials were donated to the school. Beginning his Grandmother clock on October 4,1982, Joe didn’t complete it until Tuesday May 17, 1983. During the second semester of the school year, Lonnie worked on his coffee table. The two boys had industrial arts since the eighth grade. All through the five years in school, they both carried high 90 percents; Joe graduated with a 95 percent and Lonnie with a 96 percent. For their outstanding achievements in working in in- dustrial arts, Joe and Lonnie received Scholastic awards. This was the first award given since 1971. Besides working on their special projects, Joe and Lonnie helped make the platforms for the Spec- tacular performance. They also worked on the benches for the pic- nic area next to the high school. TOP: Receiving their special award at Honor Night, Lonnie Feller and |oe Burdette are congratulated with their In- dustrial Arts Scholastic certificate. BOTTOM: Standing next to their finished projects. )oe Burdette and Lonnie Feller are very proud of their clock and table. 105 ONE STEP TO THE TOP Ted Amberger Paulene Anderson Wendy Anderson Bridget Bentley Wendy Bohlke Rodney Bradley Barbara Bruns Leisa Bruns Rick Burford Jackie Chandler Bryan Craft Teresa Craft Jason Craft Scott Davidson Teresa Davies Mike Douglas Paul Elliott Lois Emery Rachelle Fledderman Melinda Foley Kevin Gray Tammy Gray Russell Griffith Eugene Haase Karen Haase Jackie Haney Gary Heil Carl Henson When Rusty Kern was in the 8th grade, he became in- terested in playing the banjo.

He considers playing in a band some day. 106 Chris Honeycutt Darrell Hosmer Joyce Johnson Rusty Kern Vicky Kieffer Rosanne King JUNIOR CLASS: Row 1 — Ted Smith, President; Wendy Bohlke, Vice- President; Row 2—Tammy Ward, Treasurer; Teresa Craft, Secretary; Miss Kramer; Mr. Simonton.

MOVING ON Jerusalem, Jerico, Tel-A- Viv in Israel; Cairo in Egypt and Oman in Jordan were several of the cities Lane Walker visited on a nine day church tour group. He went there to study the countries’ Bible history and Mid-Eastern culture. He learned many things while he was there, including the fact that these countries haven’t changed much over the past 2000 years. Lane plans on going back sometime in the near future.
