The School Board maintained immense interest and support. Mishawaka High Schoo! has contributed to the education of 1200 students, who will in their own individual ways contri- bure to society. The involvement and attitudes invested in MHS have produced success. Three hundred graduates com- mitted themselves to the opportunities provided and earned their diplomas.

Summer Of 1980 Proves Eventful Summer vacation brought happy relief fo most students. If meant a chance to rest, accomplish tasks and fo travel. Whether they went to another state, city or just stayed in Mishawaka, the summer of 1980 was very eventful for most MHS students. A three week trip in the western U.S. proved to be an exciting and eventful vacation for Randy Usenick. After driving twenty-one hours straight, Randy and a close friend reached Arizona where they stayed in a large home arf the base of Camelback Mountain in Phoenix. They took hikes, visited the Grand Canyon and met many new friends. Junior Kathy Faulkner didn’t leave Indi- ana but spent a week at Potato Creek Stare Park. Patty Linson, a junior at MHS joined Kathy and her family. The two girls enjoyed activities like canoeing, swimming, hilsing and playing frisbee. Other Mishawaka High School students who engaged in camping during the summer were junior Katy Spalding and sophomore Tom Klopfenstein. Katy and her family visited North Carolina and Ten- nessee. A leaking tent and very hot weather sent the Spaldings to Nashville, Tennessee, where they enjoyed the comfort of a hotel. Tom, on the other hand, left his family behind. He took a bus to Schroon Lake, New York. Tom attended a Word of Life Bible camp for one month. He not only heard speakers from all over the world bur also went water skiing and sailing for the first time. Senior Kim Eslinger enjoyed the exper- ience of being a first mate on a 38-foot chartered fishing boar, outside of New Buffalo, Michigan. She had to get up by 3:30 almost every morning to have the boar ready by 5:00. Kim said, “Ir was great when the weather was nice; but when there was six foot waves and people got seasick, it wasn't too near.” Amy Carpenter, Lynne Niespodziany and Julie Swan enjoy picnicing throughour the summer months.

School Year Brings Activities Homecoming, Powderpuff, Children’s Theatre and Dance Troupe-this school year brought a flood of activities for Cavemen both new and old to partici- pate in. Even before classes began fall sports were shaping up for the season ahead. Less experienced bur just as determined, Senior, Junior, and Sophomore girls spent their fall evenings practicing for the annu- al Powderpuff Foorball game. No team was assured of victory; but as one Senior player pur it, “Ir would be nice to win, bur whar really matters is that we show the underclassmen who is boss.’’ Early in the school year clubs and organi- zations attempted fo attract new mem- bers and raise funds. Everyone tried to find something which interested him or her, whether it was German, art, danc- ing or working on the school newspaper. Summer job money went quickly once school organizations started their money- making campaigns. From carnations to frisbees, each group sold anything and everything imaginable to boost their fi- nances. Dances and other activities were sponsored to help balance their budgets. Each year brought new Cavemen as Sophomores got their first taste of high school life. A part from a few mixed up schedules and last classrooms, the new students seemed to get along pretty well. Scott Ermerti leads the crowd in an enthusiastic cheer for MHS. Jeff Rehmel, Tim Schnapp and Dan Flowers rake a pleasant afternoon break. School Life 11 In The News Conflicting situations plagued 1980-81. Whether it was television footage of an embassy take-over or presentations of Olympic medals, world events touched the thoughts of MHS students. Shock and anger overwhelmed Ameri- cans near the beginning of the decade with the seizure of the US Embassy in lran. Reports abour American hostages made daily news as Mishawaka resi- dents sent Christmas cards to Tehran and tied yellow ribbons of remembrance to trees, cars and homes. A rescue atrempr raised hopes momentarily bur failed to marerialize. The Olympics received more than usual attention as politics interfered with the Games. The Winter Games in Lake Placid captured many MHS viewers who cheered the US hockey team’s gold- medal performance. Televisions, howev- er, went dark when summer arrived because of President Carter's decision to keep US athletes our of the Summer Games in Moscow in order to protest Russia's invasion of Afghanistan. Other national issues ranged from the continuing struggles of ERA to the assimi- lation of Cuban refugees. A reinstare- ment of draft registration affected MHS students quite closely since all 19 and 20 year old men had fo sign up ar their local post offices. Politics centered around the conventions, campaigns, election and inauguration of a president and vice-president. Horly contested primaries made Carrer, Ken- nedy, Reagan, Bush and Anderson more than household words. Several MHS seniors registered and voted for the first time in a unique national election featuring not only the Democratic ticker of incumbants Jimmy Carrer and Walter Mondale and the Republican ticker of Ronald Reagan and George Bush but also a third party ticket of John Anderson and Patrick Lucey. These events and others brought the world’s rurmoils and tensions to MHS stu- dents as they took stock of the world American tourists wave the U.S. flag from Lenin Ayatollah Ruholla Khomeini casts his ballor in SITUATION.

Students Find Time For Hobbies Even with the many activities offered in school, students find time to enjoy their hobbies, families and other past times. Warching television was a popular leisure activity. Home Box Office and Showrime brought movies like, ‘Rocky Il,’’ ‘‘Sarur- day Night Fever,’’ 10, ’ and ‘The Main Event’ right into one’s livingroom. With the high cost of movies and gasoline these programs from cablevision were very economical. On the other hand, senior Steve Obren enjoyed old shows like Andy Griffith and Gilligan's Island. He also went to parties. Pete Dornsife collected salt water fish as a hobby. He set up an aquarium with four fish. He spent hours reading books about raising them. The fish came from the depths of the ocean giving them a more beautiful color. Pete was able to buy them in area pet sores. Another high school student who stayed busy during the after school hours was Stuart Belr. Even with his busy schedule at school, Stuart was a member of his church's youth group and a city tennis club. He also handed our phamplets and other literature for John Hiler. As a way to make the after school hours pass, many MHS students busied them- selves with other activities. Margaret Moe prepares for the nex serve during a volleyball game. Leisure Activities 15 Homecoming Stirs Memories The 1980 Homecoming night was one which always will be remembered by many, bur especially for those seven MHS young women who served on the court. The day began with students sending carnations to fellow classmates in honor of Homecoming. A “‘rowdy ’ pep session highlighted the afternoon and fired up the ream and the fans for another victo- ry. Thar night, MHS compered with rival Elk- hart Central in a game that was 0-0 at halftime. Homecoming festivities then began. Senior queen candidates and their escorts were Dee Case and Scott Ermeri, Tammy Cave and Mike Spalding, Michele Gregory and Mark Waumans. Junior Pam Daggy was accompanied by Brian O'Keefe and Missy DeMeesrer was escorted by Mike DeHayes. Sophomores Karen Ryan and Cindy Nutting’s escorts were Dave Chaney and Chris Thorton. Student Council President Brad Beurrer crowned Tammy Cave the 1980 Home- coming Queen as the choir, under the direction of Mr. Long, sang “Yesterday.”’ The seniors then proudly paraded their Homecoming float around the track with shouts of ‘‘81, 81!’’ thar echoed around the stadium. The foorball game ended with anorher victory for MHS, defeating Elkhart Central 7-0. After the game, students headed to ward the gym for a Student Council sponsored dance. The low price of $1.99 and the grear tunes performed by Britches ended the memorable nighr for MHS students.

Homecoming 17 22 English English Reveals Creativity The Mishawaka High School English De- partment offered a full range of courses in all grades. Each course as well as the department had various expectations of the students. Sophomores were required to take a grammar course and composition course To improve the basic mastery of their language. The second semester was filled with reading, interpreting, and ap- preciating American Literature. Composition was the class thar juniors took fo improve the clarity and organiza- tion of their written skills as well as to Prepare for college. Juniors were privi- other library projects. Mrs. Heerer assists students with bool reports and leged to choose the type of literature they wished ro study. The choices includ- ed Modern, American and British Lirera- ture. To complete their high school education, some seniors fool Essay and Research as a college preparatory course. These be- ginning researchists used numerous books as the basis for reports and com- positions. They also studied the tech- niques of documentation. Popular Litera- ture, World Literature, Myths and Leg- ends and Conremporary Themes were the lirerature electives for seniors. The electives stressed analysis and composi- tion.

A new elective, the Reading Lab, was designed to meet the special reading needs of individual students. The depart- ment hoped to introduce a special devel- opmental reading program in the future. Writing electives included Journalism and Creative Writing. Journalism students Practiced basic writing techniques, edit- ing and layour design. Creative writing involved writing stories, poems, scripts and reading material for ‘‘Browse.”’ Electives centering around students’ speaking abilities consisted of Basic Speech, Speech Dynamics and Debate. These students gained valuable knowl- edge in speaking, communications and persuasive processes. Drama, Play Production and T.V. Produc- tion investigated the communications fields. Students acquired such skills as stage presence, set design, make-up and broadcasting techniques. Senior Steve Obren demonstrates the techniques of good ball handling. Mrs. Meilner and a student discuss ways to simplify the reading process. 24 English Getting their work published in “Browse” is the goal of some students.

English 25 Publications Inform MHS While most students on Saturday morn- ing were home investing in some sleep, the Miskodeed Staff spent some long hours trying to meet their scheduled deadline. Under the new direction of ad- visor Mrs. Peggy Warner, these dead- lines were met with ease. The staff con- sisting mainly of experienced students along with editor Lori Phillips and assistant editor Vicki Pressel worked togerher as a ream. This year’s book was cenrered around a stock marker theme. A special arrempr was make to keep the theme flowing throughour the book by having each student become more informed about the stock marker. Orher arremprs in im- proving the book were having an editor and a different layour design for each section. The Allrold Sraff is a practical experience which deals with finding and gathering new. “'It’s primary goal is to provide the school with accurare and timely informa- tion abour the studenr body and news related to this school,’ stared Mrs. Warner. Editor, Mike Kuspa worked with a staff of ten, striving fo publish an infor- mative paper. This year the staff published an extra issue, Making a toral of 15 issues. As in previous years Christmas and Graduation were special.

The third and fourth years ’ dealt with learning music and literature of the countries. Over the year the foreign language de- partment had many visitors and went on several trips. Marie Josie Jehl from France and Jose Herrero from Spain came and visited classes fo answer any quesrions the students had. The Spanish Class took a trip to Sr. Mary's to see Mexican Follslore and Baller dancers.

These facts enabled stu- dents to relare to the physical world. Several science courses were offered at Mishawaka High School. They included biology, earth science, physical science, chemistry and physics. Srudents consider- ing college were required tro take two years of science as a prerequisite. The 1980-81 school year welcomed some new additions to the MHS science department. Replacing Mr. Charles Karst was Miss Anita Nash. She brought exper- tise to the earth science classes. A more sophisticated instrument, the PH meter, was introduced to the chemistry classes. It is an electronic device used to measure the acidity in solutions. Biology 3 4 was offered for the first time at MHS. Ir deal with specialized topics in biology. With such a broad array of classes, the students of today may well be the scien- tists Of fomorrow.

Math Develops Daily Skills There were a variety of math courses available, nor only to honor roll students, bur also to other students who enjoyed the challenge thar mathematics pur be- fore them. One of the more complicated math courses that some students rook this year was computer math. This dealt with learning of computer languages and un- derstanding flow charts. Although com- purer math is not a requirement for col- lege like algebra, geometry, and ad- vanced algebra-trigonometry are, com- purer math is a valuable aspect in fo- day's sociery. This year every class included in the math department, excepf compurer math, received new text books. This helped teachers ro updare marerials and teaching techniques. Some of the department's goals this year were fo improve communications within the departmenr. The marth department also tried to assist students concerning scores on the achievement rests given in the junior year. Students thar tool marh courses discov- ered thar their marh skills could be used in more places than the classroom. Be- sides planning for careers, students used their marth to figure income taxes, credit payments and everyday budgeting.

Math 33 Skills Grow In Business The Business department composed of such courses as accounting, Co-Op, and personal typing, offered the students at MHS a combination of vocational train- ing, on the job skills and personal business education. While vocational training of- fered a variety of courses related ro col- lege-bound students, on-thejob skills and personal business prepared rhe students for immediate job opportunities. This year three new types of equipment were introduced into the department: the memory typewriter, which stored needed information for further use, the electronic typewriter, which computed information automatically, and the sign printer, used by the distribured education class for printing advertised signs. A number of fund-raising campaigns throughour the year were the sale of Christmas ornaments, profirable coupons for a Shakey’s Benefit Night and a candy sale.

All year long the students listened to Reagan, Carter and Anderson debate the issues of foreign policy and internal affairs. Many long cold nights were spent listening to television editori- als on the oil crisis in Iran and Iraq. All hearts were directed toward the hos- tages who have been held in Iran for over a year. Despite all of these prob- lems inrernally, MHS students managed to settle down and study hsrory. Economics class was kept very busy throughout the entire year. Robert Chris- tianson, the founder of Christianson Furni- ture, visited MH S and gave the students ideas of how exciting it is fo start a new business and watch it grow just as he did. A trio to Wheelabraror-Frye gave stu- dents an idea of how a real corporation operates. A great number of senior government students were excused from school on November 4 fo serve af local voting stations. On November 19, many MHS students entered city hall in downtown Mishawaka to hold a mock city council meeting. U.S. history was a required course for all juniors. Ir kept them very busy trying fo remember the presidents and when the civil war began, etc. Although the work load was heavy juniors did their best to stay ahead. Since International Relations is only given one semester the seniors “were running against the clock’’, Mr. Robertson said, ro get through the mass of information giv- en to them. Indiana University senior Ker- ry Marshall came and gave the seniors a bird's eye view of the crisis between Iran and Iraq. Students were also given infor- mation on the conflict of ideas in the USSR and China. As the year passed, MHS students gained a broader view of world problems. With their explorations most students were able to better understand politics and the world situation.

Students in Woods learned the names and functions of various tools and ma- chines. They built projects from sanding blocks to grandfather clocks and dining tables. In Building Trades, students learned the fields of carpentry, electric- ity, plumbing and heating. Drafting acquainted students with basic knowledge in architectural design and construction. Graphic arts taught type setting, binding and camera work. Electronics developed an understanding of basic electricity through lectures and laboratory experiments. Auto Mechanics students learned the principles of four cycle engines and dis- mantled, measured, reassembled and made a one cylinder engine run.

Industrial Arts 39 Artists Worl Diligently This school year the Art Department re- ceived new equipment that increased the variety of the projects and made work easier. The department received a large kiln for firing clay projects as well as jewelry torches for welding jewelry pro- jects. Air brushes were also issued for new style and technique in painting. Other new equipment included a centri- fuge for use in jewelry projects and an etching lithography press. Art courses included advanced drawing and painting, sculpture, jewelry, print making and commercial art. For ad- vanced students independent arf was offered and required making a contract with a teacher to have a project done at a certain time. - cr ae —_ Mrs. Weilkel reminds Kevin Coats rhar thin clay might breals during firing in the kiln.

This year it sponsored the art club and the Christ- mas Vespers. It helped Christmas Ves- pers by painting stage props and sce- nery. Instructors Mrs. Rosa Weikel, a painter herself, and Mrs. Debra Juleen offered expert advice to the artists in their classes. They noted thar commercial art, architecture, automotive design, lands- caping design and television art are only a few of the vocations where a person can apply his or her artistic talents to- ward their work.

Child Care challenged many students fo become involved, to experience, fo learn and to realize the responsibilities of molding and guiding the life of a child. Students sought ro learn rhe psychology of the child while they discovered how the parent should react and care for the child. Seeking involvement and understanding of the relationships within a family prod- ded many MHS students into the explo- ration of Family Living. Family Living of- fered a guide for students tro help them cope with a family unit. The course showed the students the many responsi- biliries of a single family member. Housing was another class offered within the Home Economics Department at MHS. Housing class enabled the students to plan and develop a future home of their own. The Foods classes gave students informa- tion concerning proper diet and nutrition. oe at e i Clorhing class Adulthood They prepared meals from the four basi food groups. The MHS students also ha a tearoom where they invited teachers to sample a meal they had prepared. Perspective seamstresses were found in the clothing classes ar MHS. Here they were required ro complete one sewing project followed by projects of their choice. Some of their selections included dresses, blazers, skirts and blouses. Whether one pursues a career or be comes married, the skills raughr in these courses will be beneficial in all ways.

Special gold pins were specially designed for the MHS soci- ery as recognition. Members included a few students from Sophomore, Jeanne Schramm practices her music for the Music Honor Sociery try-ours the band, orchestra and choirs with ar least a C average. Prospective members were asked to audition before the facul ty and pass a written exam. They were rewarded at a formal induction dinner and with a trip to Chicago fo see the musical, ‘ My Fair Lady,”’ with Rex Harri- son. The National Honor Society was de- signed to encourage students fo become wellrounded academically.

They consisted of students and for- mer students who had taken the lan- guage and wished fo be involved in outside activities. The clubs gave the stu- dents a chance to learn abour culture and travel in the different countries. The French Club was the largest club ar MHS. The purpose was fo “acquaint members with French Culture and to get together and have a good time outside of class,’’ commented Mr. Badry, the sponsor of the club. The organization was starred in 1959 and has over 80 Spanish Club-1sr row: Janine Faini, Lora Ritter. 2nd row: Scorr Hansen, Michele Leyes, Stacey members. Throughour the years, the club has added the fall picnic and a pro- gressive dinner. This was started at one house, and each course is eaten af a different member's home. Another language club at MHS was the Spanish ‘Club. This club was offered to help promote the language and allow students fo participate in activities outside the classroom. The Spanish Club, which was headed by Miss Johnston, is 30 or more years old. Funds thar the club has accumulated throughout the years are often used for class activities such as Rzepnicki, Jill Baugher, Michelle Groome, Renee Duncun, Sreve Talkach Spanish Day ar IUSB and a trip to Sig Mary's to see ‘“‘Baller Folklorico Mexi cano.”’ In addition to these two clubs there was also the German Club which was head ed by Mrs. Gregg. As the orher clubs have stared, there is less participation; bur they still have many activities. The Christmas Party and the selling of Gu mibaren’’ or German Candy, were just @ few of the main features.

The club has had many quest speakers, one who has worked in the media and did demonstrations about designs. Even for- mer MHS students, one an interior deco- rator and the orher a commercial artisr, spoke to the group. In addition, a feach- er from the Elkhart Career Center visited the club. Mrs. Weilkel also stated thar they hoped to visit the design depart- ment of a rubber company.

Arriving from the Freshman Classes of Beiger, Emmons, and Young, the sopho- mores quickly felt a part of Mishawaka High School as they attempted to find their classrooms. After a week of school, they quickly adjusted to MHS life. These new underclassmen looked up to the juniors and seniors. Passing star ath- letes in the hall gave many sophomores butterflies. Attending their first foorball game as high school students excited most sophomores. Sophomores had fo adjust to spending more time on homework than they were used to during junior high. Also, when they arrived at MHS, they found thar there were many more activities to get involved in. When these sophomores become sen- iors, they'll look back on their sopho- more days as fun and carefree times. 154 Sophomores Sephomores 155 Sophomores Angie Johnson and Sandy Wells enjoy time our of

An important part of producing a year- book is the company chosen to print it i. The 1980-81 Miskodeed was printed by Josten’s American Yearbook Company. Mr. Jim Beckam was the company’s re- presentrarive for Mishawaka High School. He not only kept the publication room stocked with layouts, rulers and orher materials, bur he also invited the sraff to his home to look through his vast collec- tion of yearbooks for ideas abour layout design, theme and copy. Another essential aspect of production was the sale of advertising. Mr. Robert Smith, Mr. Max Eby, and Mr. David Fisher made greatly appreciated contacts all over the Mishawaka-South Bend busi- ness area. After these initial conracts were made, a staff representative got the contracts signed and helped the ad- vertisers design their ads. Leadership, organization and a great deal of patience was essential for the role of yearbook advisor. Mrs. Warner offered these qualities and many more ro the building of the 1980-81 Miskodeed. Even though this was her first year at MHS, Mrs. Warner earned respect and friendship from the students she worked with. Special thanks go to: the South Bend Tribune for the use of their pictures on the NewsFearure pages; Scott Kucela for taking on extra responsibiliries by provid- ing photographic services when we needed them most; Mr. Edward Andros for providing necessary photographic equioment and supplies. etry helps Joy Plummer pin on the Dave Chaney, Scorr Ermerti, Sreve Paczesney tion he received for Valenting’s Day and Marls Regina enjoy having lunch together Final Quores 199 “To Live In Hearts We Leave Behind Is Not To Die.” Campbell IN memory of John Ff.
