Mtgr PlfeO tilSs Y7Hi.9poleeil It's all up to you. You stand at the free-throw line, your team trailing by one point with no time remaining. You bounce the ball. You aim. You shoot. The ball hits the rim, bounces around, and finally falls off. Hitting the floor with a resounding “thud . “No problem, you think to yourself. “I've got one more shot. Just then, your teammates show their confidence in you by all walking to the other end of the court and bowing their heads in prayer. You look over to your coach for inspiration, but he's facing the other way, too scared to look. The crowd is absolutely silent now, focusing it's undivided attention on you, as once again , you bounce the ball, you aim, and you let it go. But instead of travelling toward the basket, the ball slips from your hands and actually lands behind you! Not only have you lost the game, but you've also had the pleasure of succumbing to what we call a high school phobia. High school phobias, while not an everyday occurrence have been experienced by everyone in one form or another. Some common ones include: —Getting exactly 4 hours of sleep in the last two days. —Turning in your 5th late paper in chemistry with eight weeks left in the quarter. —Sight—reading your band playing project. —Finding out the girl you've worshipped for six months detests the ground you walk on. —Being in the middle of your first paragraph of an American Heritage II essay test with five minutes left to go in the period. —Finding out that someone placed an obnoxious sign on your back after walking down a hallway loaded with people. —Having your first automobile accident during your driving test. —Setting your alarm for 6:30 P.M. and oversleeping school. —Getting assigned a bottom locker. —Having your term paper completely erased from computer disk. —Having five tests the day before Christmas vacation. —Giving your final demonstration speech impromptu. —Accidentally raising your hand during the Key Club privilege auction and buying two tickets to a hockey game for $500. And have you ever noticed that the easiest way to get rid of a high school phobia is to get a larger one, or when you finally do get rid of all your phobias, another one pops right up, ready to torture you until you're ready to go insane? The truth is, once you get your first high school phobia, you might as well forget about ever returning to normal until you graduate. —Todd Schluesche Senior Missy Rautman pulls for the senior side during the Tug-Of War competi tion held at the Thursday night Homecoming Pep Rally.

DESPITE LOSS, SPIRIT STILL ALIVE The kick-off by Monroe's Jon Jonsson at 7:30 on Friday, September 27, 1985, did not start the festivities of the 1985 Homecom ing Week here at Monroe High School. Actually, the week's activities got off to a running start at 4:00 a.m. September 23, as the pleasing taste of nam, sizzling eggs, and fresh hot rolls prepared by members of the Future Homemakers of America sparked the enthusiasm of the entire Monroe community. During breakfast, the three queen candidates Ann Glendenning, Liz Stormont, and Michele Henrichs were announced. All through the day students along with a few spirited teachers displayed their hats and shades in hallways draped with spirit posters from each class. Tuesday was known as Nerd day and while Wednesday was Rock-n-Roll day, it was also the traditional toga day for seniors. The teachers captured their spirit by flaunting aprons and buttons that chimed cooking up a victory , while students dressed as native Hawaiians. At 6:15 p.m. on Thursday, Brian Bruess kicked off the annual pep rally with the announcement of contest winners. The sophomores were float winners and Ann Glendenning received the Queen's crown. After encouraging words from Ann, the tug-of-war competition began. Once again the seniors came out victorious, even defeating the faulty. After a cheerleader skit and words by the opposing powder puff captains, the annual flag football game between the Uppers and Lowers commenced. The Juniors and Senior girls came out ahead by a score of 21 to 14. On Friday afternoon after the marching band paraded through the halls, school was dismissed to permit students to participate in the parade around the square. T.R. Holyoke Field held the main event of the week, but the football game against Oregon ended in a disappointing defeat. Despite suffering a 15-0 first half deficit, the gridders eventually took the lead in the fourth quarter only to have the victory slip between their fingers in the final minutes in a 24-19 defeat. About fifty couples danced in the gymnasium on Saturday night. A D.J. from the Madison radio station, WIBA-F.M. provided entertainment for the annual event which was sponsored by Key Club. The advanced Radio and Television class reviewed the week's events by airing a two hour show on cable television. The program included the football game as well as activities and students participating in Homecoming Festivities. 9 'Babes In Arms' Experience Growing Pains The curtain opened to reveal the apprentices at work, whose goal was to present their production — The Revue, which they knew would take them to stardom. Their only problem was their boss, Seymour Fleming (Sean Thomas), half owner of the playhouse. He would work the kids for the majority of the day, leaving them with little time for The Revue. Bunny Byron (Kathy Ambler), also half owner of the playhoqse, was the apprentices' only ally, yet had little influence on Fleming because she lacked the funds to support her half of the playhouse. Fleming saw the opportunity to help the playhouse financially by having author, actor, and producer Lee Calhoun (Lee Wunschel) present his drama. The Deep North. Chosen for the lead, Jennifer Owen (Beth Larson) accidentally ran into Val, who was attracted to her beauty. Looking into each other's eyes, they swore they had met somewhere before. But Where or When? Slowly, Bunny continued to lose the playhouse to Fleming. Coming to her rescue, the apprentices promised to help by giving her all their profits from The Revue. When Fleming suddenly announced % that The Deep North would be running a week longer, the kid's revue was cancelled, but the apprentices decided to it anyway for Bunny's sake. Steve Edwards, a prominent movie producer, came to see The Deep North. (He just happened to be Jennifer's boyfriend). When the apprentices realized that Edwards was coming to the playhouse, they decided to ask him to see their revue in hopes that he would sponsor it. Terry was the candidate, but Susie wanted to do the asking. The fact was that Steve was her brother. To do the show for Steve, all of the apprentices had to leave their posts during The Deep North performance. They went to a bam to perform their revue, which left The Deep North with a cast of two. Starring within his own production, Calhoun tried to pull off the show by himself, yet he failed miserably. He vowed to never return north except at the head of a confederate army. Running without'a hitch. The Revue was a great success. Upon finishing the last portion of the show, the cast was interrupted by an irate Fleming who fired everyone in sight. Valentine, however, entered and announced that a company had taken an option of the revue and that he had the money to purchase the playhouse for Bunny. Babes in Arms, was directed by Ms. Dexheimer, Ms. Feldt, and Mrs. Carter. Two of the cast members were not able to perform on the evening of November 7. Splitting up the lines of a minor character, Chris Jones and Willy Pickett performed with great diversity. With four hours to prepare. Senior Leah Hunt rehearsed songs, dances and lines to fill in the lead spot of Terry. Receiving special recognition for her performance. Hunt stated, I did enjoy being Terry for one evening because I got to really interact with the other characters ..

Felicia Ramsgate (Krisann Pinnow) was speaking to her French maid Marie (Lisa Zimmerman) when Dorothea Ramsgate (Kathy Ambler) entered the room. Felicia became dismayed when her daughter announced her desire of a strong, virile man. Finding the living room empty, Marie started cleaning. Sne was startled by a former acquaintance — Cokie Joe (Wade Flisram). He revealed her as Memphis Masie, a criminal posing as a French maid. Masie was surprised to leam that Cokie's partner is also the mouthpiece who sprung Cokie from jail. Cokie informed her that he and his partner were planing to steal Mrs. Ramsgates' jewels. Later, Rodney Ramsgate (Brent Brayko) was telling his wife Felicia about his missing niece who was heiress to a large sum of money. The villain Cassius was listening from around a comer. Cassius lost no time in telling Cokie and Masie about his wicked plans of finding an innocent young girl to pass off as the Ramsgates missing niece. Cassius brought with him Carlotta Flower (Leah Hunt). The young girl made an hit with her Uncle Rodney. She believed that she was saving him from a collapse. While Carlotta was getting acquainted with her new family, a strange man, Burgess Lendahand (Robert Vickerman) carried Dorothea into the house after she had had a horse riding accident. Left alone Carlotta and Lendahand immediately fall in love. Rodney entrusted Burgess with the only key to his study in private. Unfortunately, the evil Cassius was listening. So at the earliest possible chance, Cassius and Cokie entered the locked room. Rodney chanced to walk by and questioned the twosome. Poor Rodney fell victim to the evil pair. They drug his corpse into the study and locked the door. Calling in the family, Cassius placed te blame on Burgess, who supposedly had the only key. Deep in mourning, Felicia was at the beginning of a few major surprises. Mr. Ramsgate's secretary Jennie Lynd (Tina Ginner) informed everyone that the crossroads had to be sold because the deceased Mr. Ramsgate had made some bad investments. Ada Cornell (Paula Hunt) added to the day's distress when she admit- Marie (Lisa Zimmerman) is puzzled as Cokie Joe (Wade Flisram) explains how his partner happens to also be the mouthpiece who sprung him from jail. Carlotta Flower (Leah Hunt) questions Burgess Lendahand (Robert Vickerman) about his name. ted that Felicia's only child was bom dead. Dorothea was really the child of Ada's dead sister and thus no relation to Felicia. Felicia was promised a home with Burgess and Carlotta, who planned to be married. So, the story ends with Burgess saving Carlotta from a Fate Worse Than Death. Cassius Carstairs (Sean Thomas) listens intently from around the comer as Rodney Ramsgate (Brent Brayko) tells Felicia Ramsgate (Krisann Pinnow) about his missing niece. Commenting to the side. Felicia Ramsgate (Krisann Pinnow) expresses her opinion of Clarice Kingdon (Lisa Hale). During a relaxed moment, the cast poses for a whimsical picture. Cast: Paula Hunt.

Tracy Bear was elected Prom King by the junior class. He chose Deanna Sharkey to be his queen for the evening. Ann Young, senior class president, introduced the royal couple prior to the crowning. After giving his opening address to the spectators composed of parents and friends, Tracy and Deanna led the Grand March. The wall murals on the south wall were of brick walls and a night-time forest. Complimenting the Cinderella-type setting was a castle placed in the far-comer, servers dressed as castle servants, swans, walls draped with hanging vines, and a clock hanging from the center of the blue sky. The decorations gave the gym an old-world fairy tale air. The junior class decided not to hire a rock band to perform the music. They chose the Monroe City Band. Dancing to the music, the couples enjoyed a night to remember amid the castle relics. Pausing from the evening's activities, King Tracy Bear and his Queen Deanna Sharkey take a moment to enjoy a cup of punch.

A parent's dinner in the M-Room started off the weeks activities. The exchange students attended classes with their partners and gave their views on the differences between the two schools. A progressive dinner, tours of a cheese factory, Moore Business Forms, a dairy farm, and a full day of skiing were also included in the week's fun.

While this may or may not be true, 1 wonder exactly to which part of the high school they are referring. It seems to me that simply walking down the halls of Monroe High School can be an experience in itself. Every type of student and every social clique is represented in the halls. At no other time will one find the different members of the school gathered in one massive glob all at once. Meek, timid students who never look a teacher in the eye, much less actually answer a Question above an incoherent mumble, become the loudest voices in the halls. A mere bell seems to transfer them from mice to lions, only to reduce the roaring beasts back into mute creatures at the fatal tolling of the bell which states another silent class period. When the halls of MHS were built, they were intended to be used as a transportation system. At times, however, road blocks soring up from seemingly nowhere. These blockades come in the form of groups of students gathered for a midday chat. The members of the conferences feel that they have an imperial right to plug up the road to lockers and classrooms. Other students grumble as they impatiently thrust themselves through the midst of the circle. More timid students (like frosh) will opt to go miles out of their way, risk being late, and end up running to class in order to avoid such obstacles. Halls are often the scene of extremely touching sentiments and shows of passion. After a class is dismissed, some couples can be seen rushing toward one another as though the separation had been as eternity. They joyfully embrace before turning to the dull task of opening lockers and retrieving the necessary books. Soon, however, they must slowly begin to amble toward their destinations. Parting is such sweet sorrow'. Tender w'ords of adieu and final embraces are shared before they must tear themselves apart. Taking off full speed, they burst into the in the nick of time just to sit through another tortuous class period, apart, before they can once again come together for a few torrid minutes. Different people in the halls discuss different topics. The studious people mull over calculus problems, verb conjunctions and the Mesopatamian theory of evolution. The jocks yak about the missed 20 point, the first string and the frosh team's promising talent. Rocksters ramble about concert jerseys, tickets and the top ten hits. Guys, the upcoming dance, and who Wore what are typical female conversations. The average males rap about parties, cars and girls. just when one thinks he has seen everything there can possibly be seen, he notices clothing. Not only are the people in the halls interesting, but so are their clothes. Someone wearing a too large, half rotted sweatshirt with torn, faded blue jeans can be seen walking dow n the halls while chatting with another person in high heels and a chic dress. A concert jersey worn on Monday may be replaced with a suit for Tuesday. Although there are always some people w'ho have the guts and money to go against the grain, most students tend to look odd- ly alike. After a few adventurous souls start a new style, soon the general population will adopt it as natural. Probably the cutest, however, is w'hen two friends manage to wear exactly the same costume on the same day so that they end up looking like a revised edition of the Bobsey Twins. High school an experience? There's no Question about that. The question is wnere to begin. The halls alone offer a wide and sometimes amusing variety. Everyone is represented in the halls. Four minutes can be so entertaining — next time in the halls of MHS, look around; See the sights, for there are truly plenty. — Li so Hole Slaying with the Pinnow family Alessandro Pereira a native of Drozil. participated in the American field Service (APS) Club during her stay in Ametico Matching Hand members participated in the Homecoming Porode.

The money earned throughout the football and basketball seasons was set aside to cover the expenses of sending individuals to the Store Conventions. 21 SPECIAL WEEK HIGHLIGHTS AFS In early December, the American Field Service (AFS) of Monroe High School hosted eleven students from various countries including South Africa, Panama and Norway. The foreign students exchanged their views of America and told about their homelands. Several get-togethers were planned throughout the week to exchange ideas and learn about other cultures. The foreign students and their hosts toured Monroe and the Alpine Curling Club during the weekend. After watching and cheering at a Cheesemaker basketball game, the students went to the post game dance, to end the festivities, a pot luck lunch was held in the M-Room before the foreign students returned to their Wisconsin host families. The club had about twenty active members that participated in the AFS weekend as well as fund-raisers. About $300 was raised at a dance sponsored by AFS when the annual pizza sale in the fall also added to the clubs' treasury. Monroe was fortunate in having three foreign students study in Monroe. Jon Jonsson, A native of Iceland, was hosted by the Keith family. Juan de Dios Mora of Spain also enjoyed a year in Monroe with the Reverend Goebel family.

One successful tradition sponsored by Liaison Board is the student faculty Revue, held every spring. It combined the talent of all members of the school into an evening of fun. Liaison Board is also active during Homecoming and sponsored dances. With the money earned from fund-raisers such as the Revue and the selling of Sun-Glo products. Liaison Board offered scholarships. One was given to a student who had demonstrated leadership skills within our school. Another was given to the student who had been active on Liaison Board throughout high school. Liaison Board members are available and willing to listen to any ideas or complaints students may have. They are here for our benefit. They show that students and teachers can work together.

Ellen SOUND-PROOF PRACTICE ROOM ADDED The members of the various bands have always needed the time and space to practice, as well as to have lessons. In past years, the task of finding the time and space has not always been easy. If a member has a free period when one of the regular bands met, then he was unable to use any of the practice rooms because the sound would disrupt the class in progress. This year, the problem was solved. A sound-proof practice room enjoyed its entire academic year. The small cubicle has a lighting system a humidity control system and a fan system which is separate from that of the main band room. The band members were able to practice or have a lesson when a full band was in rehearsal without worries of disturbing them. The little room was utilized during the auditions which determines chair positions for each section, the soundproof room also allowed people to practice securely knowing that no one could hear their musical attempts. Of the new room, Wind Ensemble trumpet player Julie Andrews said, “the sound-proof room has made practicing much more enjoyable. You do not have to worry about making mistakes because no one can hear you any way. WIND ENSEMBLE Kow 1; Michelle Une. Jenny Goebel. Colleen Deignan. Leslie Wake. Shelli Mauermann.

The theme was 'cops and robbers'. Various fictional figures were called forth to locate the stolen goods. When Joe Friday (Mr. Brukwicki) and Andy Griffith (Mr. Sathoff) were unable to recover the spirit, then Mike Hammer (Mr. Simonis) showed up on the scene with two blonde dames (Mr. Keen and Mr. Bieneman), but they could not find it either. Just when the crowd was about to give up hope, a mysterious black limousine pulled up and the Godfather (Mr. Schneeberger) stepped out. He brought back the spirit by conducting the school song. Overall the Marching Band had a good season. Other major half-time show had a outerspace theme featuring the Flag Corps in one song and a tissue streamered Hailey's Comet in another. The Pep Band hosted the first annual Pep Band concert in the spring for the general public, the turnout was good and the idea was a big hit. Songs played ranged from old dance hall songs to '50's songs, TV theme songs to current pop hits. PEP BAND: Front Row; Becky Holland. Elise Scherer, Michele Henrichs, Amy Babula, Michelle l.ane.

Marl Schluesche GOOD SENSE MAKES SENSE This past year's Capstone class built Monroe's first Good bense home. Through the help of Wisconsin Power and Light, this home should bring a new style of home to our community. The blueprint for this house was of the Cape Cod style with two Dormers. The Capstone class taught by Mr. Tupper, built their house for a May 18 opening. Steve O'Bel said, We were really working hard the last few weeks before the opening. The members of Capstone didn't know it they could finish the house on time due to 5 weeks of rain during the year in which very little was accomplished. The members of Vocational Industrial Clubs of America (VICA) kept busv working on projects, attending a leadership conference in Delevan, and at the state conference in Wausau.

TRYOUTS HIGHLIGHT YEAR As with previous years this year's tryouts were a big part of the Girls Swing Choir and the Mixed Swing Choir. Various practices were set up for those individuals who wanted to tryout. During tryouts everyone practiced the song and dance which they were required to perform. Judges were members of the Mixed Swing Choir from the previous year. The judges gave each person points based on aspects of singing, dancing, and natural performing grace. Shelly Figi, a first year Swing choir member commented, ' since the judges are members from the previous years' Mixed swing Choir, they have had to go through the judging experience too, and know' exactly what you're going through and how to make you feel more relaxed. Finally the people who made the choirs w'ere posted. All of tne new members had hours of work ahead of them, but they knew it would be rewarding. Although they had 7:00 a.m. practices, they learned to enjoy them. After many practices, the choirs put to use the songs and dances which they had learned. They played a big role in the '86 Revue, and they also gave other performances. In the '86 Revue they opened w'ith the song Standing Room Only and closed the performance with a patriotic melody featuring Brent Brayko as Uncle Sam. TREBLE CHOIR: First Row; Mary Figi.

Science Club is not a small group of alchemists who hide away in dark comers performing unusual experiments. Actually, Science Club became quite social this year. In the past. Science Club had numerous bake sales in order to raise money. Last year Science Club composed dances as an additional fund-raiser. So what do they do with the vast treasury? Buy chemicals? Wrong! The members took several trips including an eagle visitation and a jaunt to Chicago. At the windy city the members spent time at the Adler Planetarium and the Museum of Science and Industry. The senior members of the club also planned a trip to St. Louis for the early part of the summer. Rarely did a Science Club expedition occur, when the members did not take a side trip to a local shopping mall. The members expressed an avid interest in the vital science of shopping. The journey home was always filled with excited chatter discussing recent purchases as well as music. Grading by musical taste, the club was divided into three distinct groups-the WHAMers, the non-WHAMers, and those who frankly did not care. Other current hits are discussed as well. So, despite the popular belief, experiments are not performed by the trendy Science Club. The members enjoyed a fun year of a social nature. TWO WIN AT REGIONALS Future Business Leader of America (FBLA) had an eventful year. The FBLA regional convention was held in Gilmanton, WI on February 15. Many FBLA members from Monroe High attended. At the convention, delegates voted on president and vice president of FBLA at the regional level. Members competed in various contests, learned many things about the business world, and generally had a good time. Two students, Lenae Rowe and Noelle Isely, entered a contest in Business Graphics. In this competition the team was given a topic and asked to design a project that best conveyed the theme within a 90-minute time limitation. The topic Isely and Rowe worked on was designing a book cover for a pamphlet, combining business and FBLA. Fully expanding their ingenuity, the team placed first among their competitors. FBLA members also attended the state convention in Green Bay, April 10 through April 12. Here, students voted on state officers and shared ideas to increase thir knowledge of the business world. There were a variety of contests open for members which included business graphics, business mathematics, data processing, stenography, and typing. In this closing competition, no Monroe students placed. Two sophomore members of FBLA, Shawn Zentner and Mary Goltz, discuss the agenda while awaiting for the meeting to start.

'Where to turn if it starts to burn was the theme for the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Week along with FFA-Leaders for the New Fields of Agriculture. The student's projects were based on these themes. FFA members participated in displays at the West Mall and in area schools. Rich Ammon, president of FFA reflected, The kids to whom we went out and talked really enjoyed what we had to say .... Each grade schooler was allowed to put out a small Fire to learn how to properly bring a fire under control through the use of an extinguisher. Continuing 1985's project of creating a hardwood forest out of Monroe's Airport Park, members planted 3000 trees to go along with the 3,500 previously planted. The trees are important because they form a refuge for the wildlife and make a solid ground cover which prevents erosion. FFA members also worked on many other projects such as Conservation Days, Food for America, and the branding of area tractors. They also went to district, sectional, state, and national contests, as well as attending state, national convenions, and leadership conferences.

And our membership even included two freshmen — for the past few years no freshmen have participated. Long before the season began, dedicated members were working with their coaches. In addition to Mr. Trampe, Mrs. Spoerry and Mr. Stauffacher also coached students. The students chose their own speaking category. The range was wide, starting with storytelling and going through special occasion speeches. Monroe was well represented in many of the areas. The categories were limited to four students maximum for each area. The members attended one meet before the serious compeititon began. The indtial meet served as a practice trial where members got the feel of speaking compedtion. To qualify for the State meet, two preliminary rounds of qualification must be passed. At the Sub-district competition, 14 out of 25 points must be gained. At this level, all of the MHS members scored high enough to go on to the next stop. Members qualifying for the state meet must gain 19 out of 25 points at the Distrct level. Seven members qualified for state. Although seven members qualified, only five members were able to attend the State competition. Both of the freshmen were present at state, which is outstanding according to Mr. Trampe. Sara Munro, Carylee Govier, Amy Hudson, Kelly Knoke andjenny Goebel all received silver medals at the meet. Awards were given to the individual members of each class who scored the highet accumulated points. This year, awards went to Jenny Goebel for the senior class, Kelly Knoke for the junior class and Sara Munro tied with Carylee Govier for the freshman class.

RESOLUTION PASSES We have always had at least one of our resolutions accepted by the General Assembly ... remarked Mr. Jerry Guth, co-advisor of Model United Nations (MUN) and 1986 was no exception. Spending two davs on the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee campus, the eighteen members of MUN guided by the two advisors represented Monroe in the mock representation of the united Nations. Responsible for four different countries, each delegation worked toward improving its own country's standards while bettering the world as a whole. Members of the Kenyan delegation, Robert Vickerman and Neil Whitehead were responsible for the second committee which dealt with Economics and Finances. Together, they wrote a resolution dealing witn the improvements of roads in drought stricken areas of Africa. After MUN began, Whitehead and Vickerman began caucusing with other countries in order to build up backing for their resolution. Compomises were made and support was given. Easily passing through first committee, the resolution was then sent on to second committee which consisted of a larger number of delegations. After presenting their resolution, whitehead was allotted time to emphasize to the committee the importance of its meaning. Neil did an outstanding job. He was a first year member; yet, when he was caucusing, anyone would have thought that he had been in Model United Nations for years, acknowledged Barbara DuCharme, fellow Kenyan representative. After passing second committee, the resolution went on to the General Assembly, which contains every committee and every person involved in MUN (over a thousand people). To pass General Assembly (G.A.) over half of tne countries had to voice Affirmative. After the presentation of the resolution and discussion, which included debate for and against the proposal, a majority of the countries voted aye, which made the resolution a confirmed part of the MUN laws. It is difficult to get a reolution through the General Assembly ... emphasized Ms. Jan Alt, co-advisor, ... and the fact that one of our resolutions passed the G.A., I think that speaks well of the Monroe group in general. The entire two days were spent using parliamentary procedure whicn lends to an atmosphere of a true UN experience. In closing, Vickerman noted, I have gained a better understanding of how the United Nations works and ... I also have gained a better understanding of card games. Chile Delegation: Greg Peters, Nola Morrell, and, not pictured, Aaren Christen. Spain Delegation: FRONT; Tina Ginner, Caity Morrell. SECOND ROW; Sean Thomas, Mark Bailey, and Tracey Baumgartner. That's right, the MUN trip is one of enjoyment also. In their free time, students can go out to eat, play cards and board games, tour the campus on their own, and socialize with students from other schools. I have always been pleased with the caliber of students in the club. Usually these people are intelligent and yet able to enjoy themselves when appropriate, commented Guth. Model United Nations, one of the small clubs within the Monroe High School, is a club that lacks school wide notariety. Knowing this, Guth pictures, ... the club not as an elitist club but rather a group of people interested in world affairs and in foreign countries . . . the club would be viewed as a way to develop the intrapersonal skills neeae in life. Alt also sees the group as one which ... has to work hard and to be dedicated but they have fun in the process. Iran Delegation, FRONT ROW: Ann Young, Deb Kubly. SECOND ROW: Andv Goebel, Paul Isley.

Under the student direction of president Eric Ogden and teacher-advisor Ms. Sarbacker, German Club operated as a social club for students enrolled in German classes. Because the enrollment for these classes mostly came from freshmen and sophomore students, most of the participation for events was done by underclassmen who wanted to use their German skills outside of class. The twenty-five to thirty students met once a month with discussion about activities taking priority over subjects such as volleyball challenges against the other language clubs, parties within the club, and sales of Gummi Bears For those who have never been able to see or taste Gummi Bears , they are multicolored, chewy gumdrop pieces of candy. When they are fresh they melt in your mouth, but when they are old they are like old shoe leather. However, our club has been very successful in selling 'Gummi Bears', and they've brought good profits for the club, explained three year member Mike Brukwicki. Money from the sales were used for the club's social events and treats. Cathy Faith, Mary Lynn Meier, and Daphne Krahenbuhl use their German skills to communicate within the club.

When the command all those wearing plaid move two seats to the left'' is called out, Caity Morrell finds herself sharing a seat with Pam Bruni. FRENCH CLUB OFFERS FUN French Club tried to base its activities on the French culture so French games were played. If the games were not of French origin, then Mr. Larson, the advisor, triea to have the conversations in French. Bingo was one of the popular, yet tricky, games considering that the numbers were read off in French. The traditional volleyball night was at times confusing; people have enough problems remembering the score in English, let alone French. The main fund-raiser of French Club was the Annual Chili Supper. As in the past, a good bowl of hot cnili was much appreciated by the spectators at a fall football game in October. The money raised from the supper was used for prizes, food and the other various activities of the club. The officers — Brian Moser, president; Cindy Weckerly, vice president; Pam Bruni, treasurer; and Caity Morrell, secretary — worked hard to make the events memorable. Considering all the conflicts, participation was high because people wanted to enjoy themselves by using French outside of class, stated senior Caity Morrell. To all French Club members, the most famous game played is, without a doubt, the lap game. The group begins sitting in a circle upon chairs. Mr. Larson then called out a command such as everyone wearing glasses move two seats to the left . If someone happened to already be sitting in that seat, then the second simply sat on the lap of the first for a quick sit! Of course, this became quite amusing after four or five students were all piled into the same seat. The commands were called in French which sometimes confused people wrho have problems telling their right from their left even in English. All in all, the members may not have met a lot of on a regular basis, but when they did, they had a lot of fun. The year concluded w-ith the annual French Club Banquet w hich wras supplied for by the senior club members of the club in an outside cafe atmosphere. The seniors emphasized a classic French Cafe bv surveying the underclassmen French cuisine outdoors. FRENCH CLUB: Row 1; Caitlin Morrell. Brian Moser, Cindy Weckerly. Mr. Larson, Pamela Bruni.

With this requirement one realizes that the club consists of mainly upper classmen yet there are some tokken freshmen and sophomores also within the group. Representing athletes of Monroe, the club's purpose is to aid in varied athlete events while promoting good sportsmanship in being both a participant and a spectator The president was senior Marcia Wiegel; vice president, Barbara DuCharme; and secretary treasurer, Brian Keith. During the course of the school year, the clubs enrollment variecTyet there were 15-20 active members from start to finish which was a average number of students comparible to past years. Homecoming was the ideal opportunity for the uses of M-Club's enthusiaic members. Following tradition from years past, streamers and banners were used in decorating the T.R.Holyoke field bleachers for the Thursday night Homecoming pep rallv and powder puff football game between the uppers and lowers. Time was spent making signs that supported the different girl football teams and sign tnat were used for the acutal Homecoming game that was Friday night. I really thought that the club snowed a lot of spirit and commitment when the time came to put together the decorations and other necessary idems for tne Homecoming Pep Rally. Everyone worked hard and did their share ana you could tell because after all was said and done it looked really good ' commented Du Charme. The highlight of the year was the annual alumni basketball game sponsored by M-Club over Christmas vacation. Participation by M-Clubbers was needed to set up, keep score and take tickets. The consolation game was w on by the classes of 1984 and 1985. The team beat the 1976 and older alumni by a close score of 50 to 46. The championship game was won by the classes of 1981-1983. The older alumni of 1977-1980 could not overpower the younger alumni and were defeated 58-43. Using the money earned through club activities such as the tournament during Christmas and other services done by the club, two scholarships of $150 were presented to seniors during awards night by the M-Club advisors Mr. Pat Martin, Mr. Tom Morgan and Mr. Tom Appel. After being given a list of possible canidates, club members voted for the graduating senior who portrayed the best sportsmanship through out their high school career and who possesed the best positive attitude in and toward the club while being a member.

MANHOURS MARK YEAR Manhours — the members of Key Club spent a lot of time talking about them, the officers complained about them, and posters were hung up in Mr. Simonis' room concerning them. So, exactly what were these manhours? Manhours compiled the hours key clubbers spent serving their fellow man. Each member was to have ideally worked at least 50 hours. Other projects which helped members to accumulate man hours included: concession stands. Privilege Auction, school store, movies at Monroe Manor, MAAC, St. Victor's project, dances, YMCA, serving Apostalate to the Handicapped dinner Blood-mobile, telephone surveys, distributing recycling bins and many other projects. For most members, the highlight of the year was the Wisconsin-Upper Michigan District convention in Green Bay. Twenty members attended the convention. Brian Bruess and Brian Masshardt officially ended their terms on the District B6ard. Two new Monroe members were elected to serve on the Board for next year. Lisa Hale was installed to replace Brian Bruess as the Lt. Governor for this area. Jon Deininger was installed as the District Bulletin Editor. Masshardt received a much coveted award for the fine job he did. All in all. Key Club marked this year with man hours for mankind. 39 FHA TAKES HONORS Monroe Future Homemakers of America (FHA) Chapter earned the honor of being selected the first place chapter in Wisconsin for Recognition Honors. They also won an award for their dietetics project. During the year the Monroe Chapter had two members, Tina Ginner and Brenda Naef, represent them in state offices. Many hours of work by all members of FHA helped the organization achieve it's top honor. One of the main projects was that of Wisconsin Dietetics Association Nutrition Award for their in-depth Student Body Nutrition Project. This project was chosen to represent Wisconsin at the FHA-HERO National Leadership Conference at Orlando, Florida. Ginner and Naef both held state offices. Being elected at the 1985 State Conference, Ginner held the office of State Program of Work Chairperson. Prior to taking office she attended the Vocational Student Organization Leadership Training at Madison during June of 1985. Naef held the office of Families and Futures Coordinator and in turn attended peer-educational training in Madison. The two some attended the National Leadership Conference in July at Salt Lake City. Throughout the academic year the girls continued to attend conferences and they also gave presentations to FHA members. All the members of FHA were happy and sad to see the year end. Not only did they learn but they made many new friends. Most members, however, have another year to look forward to as all the fun and work will begin again.

Not pictured; Kns Goepfert, Angie Zwicker, Julie Rackow 42 Seeing the school and community react to the 1985 yearbook, the staff knew the pressure put on them to produce a solid yearbook. Added pressure was also on because there were only two veterans, with the rest being younger members and lacking experience. After taking a deep breath and jumping in with both feet, the staff organized, reorganized, wrote, revised and started again and with each revision, the layouts, copy, and captions were improved and the book became stronger. Upon handing out the 1985 yearbooks, depression was a common feeling expressed, as students, high school staff, and taxpayers all felt it their undivided duty to explain in vivid language their dislike for the numerous items within the 1985 book. Yes, there were mistakes. BUT, there were also ideas and new concepts that were not mistakes. Spending time looking for everything that was wrong, the majority of the people overlooked the positive aspects the book produced. (Yes, there were positive aspects.) It really hurt to see articles that you had worked on cut down, but I know that it's part of the job. Yet, every time someone said how bad the book was 1 wanted to tell them that 'If you think that it is so bad maybe you should consider joining the staff this year to help improve it, ' shared Barbara Du Charme. With two senior veterans, the staff lacked needed experience. Spending a week of the past summer at a workshop, assistant-editor Lisa Hale gained her first experience with the yearbook process. I gained a lot of experience at the yearbook camp, but 1 did not realize what I was getting into until school started, confessed Hale. Other newcomers started gaining experience once school began in the fall. The first things taught were the basics of writing the stories, making the layouts, and a lot of little details which took many weeks. After the initial stage was complete, the staff begun to work on theme and development of the theme. Then work began on actual copy, layouts and pictures. This year ran much smoother than past years, reassured editor Du Charme. Even though we lacked experience in staff members, it was a real group effort by all which really shows the team spirit that was evident all year, commented veteran Julie Ethridge. In closing. Advisor Mr. Earl Brockman stated that 1986 was a better year because, the staff was more attentive. He also added, I would like more students to become involved, but only if the students really want to work.

Several sales including Halloween candy, Christmas gifts, scented candles and sweetarts were held throughout the year to fund their intended trip to Spain. A trip was planned for sightseeing tours of Madrid, Toledo and other Spanish museums, parks, and shops. An extra week was supposed to be spent in Grenada on a family stay where the student experienced life from the inside — not as a tourist. However, two months before their departure, the students held a meeting to decide whether to continue their trip. Due to the crisis in Libya and threats of terrorists attacks, students were advised not to travel abroad. The twelve students and two chaperons reluctantly cancelled their reservations, with most of their money being refunded. All of the time we spent selling was wasted because of something we had no control over, said senior Heidi Tschanz. The seven seniors were the most disappointed. Some students were in the club for four years, but weren't able to experience any other cultures, senior Kelly Senn explained.

SPANISH CLUB HOLDS ANNUAL OVERNIGHT The highlight of the Spanish Club activities was the annual Spanish Club overnight at Abraham Lincoln School on May 9. This event was held to encourage Spanish speaking outside the classroom. Only Spanish was spoken throughout the night by students and chaperons. About 33 students who have learned Spanish in high school participated in the event. When students arrived, they had to go through a customs search, as persons entering a foreign country do. Baggage was searched for English literature and American music. Afterwards, time was spent sampling Mexican cuisine, singing, and watching slides. Twelve visiting students from Panama, Peru, Spain and other Latin American countries told of their native homelands. In the morning they awoke to a Mexican breakfast. A traditional Spanish market was set up where students could purchase items with their rewards for talking Spanish. The club visited Chi Chi's in Madison to get a taste of real Mexican food. Other activities included volleyball and a Mexican dinner. Two bake sales raised $50 for the transportation to these activities. At a meeting before school, Spanish Club officers Kelly Senn and Heidi Tschanz discuss the annual overnight with Mrs. Hendrickson, club advisor SPANISH CLUB: Row 1; Kelly Senn.

PEP CLUB TO THE RESCUE Is the team losing the game? Are the cheerleaders on the other side of the gym? Is the pep band on vacation? If the answer to all of these questions is yes, who can save the game and lead the crowd in cheering the team on the victory and get their spirits flying? Pep Club can! Their banners and pennants are hung around the gym with words of encouragement and hopeful victory. The colorful T-shirts boldly display Monroe's red and white. And there's usually a pep club sponsored dance looming up after the game to add excitement to the high school crowd. Pep club has been strongly bringing enthusiasm to sports fans this year under the leadership of president, Kim Burke; vice president, Kris Rasmussen; and advisor, Mrs. Weuve. They have worked hard to bring spunk to the club this year and to make it stronger than ever. They hope to spark a bit of enthusiasm and pride in everyone at Monroe High. Pep Club action is not only seen during sports events. Of course, they sell pennants, buttons, hats and T-shirts displaying Cheesemaker pride. They also put banners in our halls reminding us of upcoming events, and place words of encouragement on athlete's lockers. There are many dances throughout the year sponsored by Pep Club. Their biggest undertaking in Turn-about, which was held on February 15. Pep Clubbers work hard to bring excitement to high school life. You don't have to be an athlete, a cheerleader, or a member of pep band to support our athletic teams. Being a pep clubber is a way to add enjoyment to people's life. When the game gets a little boring. Pep Club can be counted on to make it exciting. 46 CREW CREATES With the funds raised from the annual caramel-apple sale. Theatre Crew was able to purchase new make-up. Under the direction of Ms. Dexheimer and the assistance of Mrs. Glendenning, the crew members learned how to create with make-up. The school musical 'Babes in Arms provided a challenge by the sheer number of cast members. The junior high school play has a green witch to be worked on. The school musical A Fate Worse Than Death had a small cast, but many of the members needed to be aged by twenty or thirty years if not more. The '86 Revue brought the crew a huge cast requiring a variety of facial needs spanning from a lollipop to a Chinese dancer. After a busy year of creating, most people would have fallen down exhausted, but not this crew. They planned and took their annual trip to see a live acting performance.

In the 1985-86 season the Varsity girls basketball team was coached by Mr. Jones who was promoted from coaching the Junior Varsity squad. Junior Varsity and Varsity Tennis team members, took part in the Homecoming parade on their own wagon. Both the Junior Varsity and the Varsity teams had outstanding season which was evident through their records. Bruess Shatters Basketball Team SHTDi}ERS Monday, November 25, began just like any other day at Monroe High School. The incoming school buses narrowly missed hitting several sleepwalking students making their way through the parking lot, six freshmen got hip-checked into lockers ana lost their books, and Mr. Weuve took his usual dose of verbal abuse during lunch. Even as 3:17 approached, there were no visible signs of impending doom. Suddenly, peace and tranquility were shattered in one violent moment as senior Brian Bruess went up for a slam dunk and came down along with thousands of fiberglass fragments. He had just succeeded in totally destroying a backboard. While it was rumored that the resulting shock waves caused the nearby Pecatonica River to jump its banks and flood the 'mighty city of Browntown, there was no doubt that the ones most imperiled by this situation were the basketball players that were trapped under the avalanche of falling glass. As Mark Rampaging Raider Rieder put it: 1 was running down court when I saw it happen. I looked up to watch Rock when I heard a 'click followed by a 'whoosh'. Glass was everywhere. As I picked the individual fragments out of my hair and shirt, I knew what had happened. Nobody had to tell me. A chilling testimony to by sure, but perhaps The Rock' assessed the situation the best when he said, I was worried because I knew or thought that my father might be quite upset. As it turned out, Mr. Breuss was a bit more understanding. My dad was pleased that I could dunk, but wondered why I kept breaking expensive boards, Brian stated when asked about his dad's reaction. A man of artistic talent, Brian showed that he was not satisfied with just a run-of-the-mill slam dunk. He quickly came up with two new specialty moves, the Frogger and the Cookie. The Frogeer looks like a frog when you pick it up from behind the front feet. Legs spread out. This move is usually used on a lay-up. The Cookie, a dunk technique, is a shake move with the ball being double-pumped, then stuffed. It was aerial acrobatics like these that provided Monroe basketball fans with many unforgettable memories from the 1985-1986 season.

UNDERCLASSMEN SHOW THE WAY FOR GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY During the Tri-State Invite held at the Monroe Country Club, the Varsity season opened with a sixth straight victory over a nine team field. They went on to place fourth at the Madison West Invitational with 96 points against the top teams in state. At Mukwanago Park the team came home with a first place trophy in their dicision at Laser Relays. The dual season started with the defeat of Monona Grove with an excellent score of 16-49. Then the Cheesemakers went on to defeat Stoughton and Sauk Prarie 16-50 and 17-43 respectively. The varsity also came home with victories against Fort Atkinson and Oregon but came up short against Middleton with a close 24-31 loss. The only disappointment came at the muddy Middleton course at Badger Conference. Even with the determination of the whole team, Monroe only scored 43 points to champion Middleton's 33 points. Despite the loss, Colleen Deignan and Dawn Tschudy made All-Conference Honors. Katy Deignan also came home with the honor of being the Conference Champion as a freshman. At Sectionals the Harriets defeated fifteen other schools with a low score of 69. After the state meet was postponed because of rain, the championship took off with blizzard conditions. However, the team raced hard and all runners finished under 100 place. Girls' Cross-Country, FRONT ROW: Ellen Schmitz, Tami Masshardt, Tammy Fahmey, Peggy Shreve, Katy Deignan, Kelly Knoke.

The Junior Varsity also dominated the big invitationals, winning Tri-State with a low score of 27. The Junior Varsity also conquered Laser Relays. After being 6-1 in conference dual meets, the J.V.'s took the first five places at the Badger Conference meet. By team vote the Most Valuable Freshmen was Katy Deignan; Most Valuable Sophomore was Ellen Schmitz; Most Valuable Junior was Tammy Farhney; Most Valuable Senior was Colleen Deignan, who was also co-captain with Dolly Brennan. The Gut Award was given to Mary Monoghan while Debbie and Dawn Tschudy received Miss Consistent Award. The Homecoming Parade - one of the few times the team could be seen riding, instead of running.

HOUNDS TAKE YET ANOTHER TRIP TO STATE The 1985 Hounds followed the tradition of excellence that has almost come to be taken for granted by cross-country fans in Monroe. But unlike past teams that breezed through the regular season and sectionals, this team scratched and clawed to finally arrive at the state championships. After finishing a grueling regular season with a very impressive 102-33 mark, tne team headed for Miadleton and the conference meet. The Hounds were denied a 12th straight Badger Conference crown by being edged out by Sauk Prairie. The Hounds went to sectionals and came away with second place. And when the points were tallied, Monroe had come away with an outstanding third place finish by Monroe's all state runner, Brian Masshardt. Masshardt's performance capped off many years of hard wort and dedication. It also confirmed the belief of Mr. Clarence Bruess, his coach, that Masshardt was one of Monroe's all- time greatest runners. While Masshardt's name was always in everyone's mind, other Hounds also gained individual acclaim. Among these were: Most Valuable Freshman, Mark Lueck; Senior Captain, John Staab; Gut Award, Jeff Metcalf; Most Improved, Neil Whitehead; and of course Brian Masshardt as the Most Valuable Runner. Perhaps it was Masshardt himself that summed up the 1985 season the best when he said: The year was very frustrating, yet rewarding as well. Frustrating because we never really lived up to the awesome potential that we had, but rewarding in that we grew as a team and jn character. Many people at this school think the conference championship comes automatically, but after losing four quality runners from the year before, many conference schools looked to run right past us. It took a lot of character to swallow our first conference defeat, and taking second in the conference meet wasn t easy either, but getting to the state meet as a team was a real tribute to our persistence and dedication. Tne J.V.'s also enjoyed success through persistence and dedication. They compiled an excellent 67-21 record. It's no wonder that Coach Bruess said that our younger runners also give promise of a bright future for the MHS Hounds.

Holyoke Field was the place to be on autumn Friday nights as Monroe watched its football Cheesemakers roll to their best record in modern history, 8-1. Only a heartbreaking homecoming defeat to Oregon prevented the Cheesemakers from winning Monroe's first-ever conference title in football, and going to the WIAA playoffs. Head coach Pat Martin put a heavy emphasis on the use of the ground attack, and with good reason. Running back Matt Fuller set a school record by rushing for 1,292 yards, with over 1000 of these coming in six conference games, while fullback Rick Bennett scratched and clawed his way for 383 hard-earned yards. Defense, however, was the area where the Cheesemakers really dominated their opponents, holding them to 78 total points and registering 3 shutouts. The defensive charge for Monroe were linebackers Mark Rieder and Mike Leuzinger, who combined for 26 solo and 164 gang tackles. Monroe got the 1985 season started on the right foot with three quick victories: a come-from- behind 7-6 victory at Janesville Craig, a 28-20 triumph over Platteville, and a 24-12 win over Sauk Prairie. As tne team prepared for its Homecoming battle with the always tough Oregon Panthers, the severe case of Football Fever that struck the entire city only got worse when a Madison T V. station unveiled its new football poll. In this poll, the Cheesemakers were listed as ifcer two and the Panthers as number numi three among Southern Wisconsin teams. It was no wonder that the bleachers were filled as the people of Monroe turned out to watch the game that, as it turned out, decided the 1985 Badger Conference championship. The crowd watched in frustration as Monroe dominated Oregon in every phase of the fame, yet trailed by a 15-0 score at halftime. he Cheesemakers came out for the second half and slowly but surely reasserted themselves, carrying out an incredible comeback and taking a 19-18 lead. The Cheesemakers had the ball and their own fate in their hands when with only 4:21 left disaster struck. Oregon's Jim Ayers stepped in front of an errant screen pass and returned it for a touchdown. The Cneesemakers hurriedly tried to mount a comeback score, but just fell short. Oregon escaped town with a 25-19 victory. It was after this loss that the Cheesemakers showed their true character. Instead of suffering u major let down in their performance, they picked themselves up and ended the season with a five game winning streak that included victories over Madison Edgewood, Monona Grove, Middleton, Fort Atkinson, and Stoughton, to end the season with an 8-1 record. Receiving awards for Monroe were: Matt Fuller as Most Valuable Player, Offensive MVP, and Back of the Year; Mike Leuzinger as Defensive MVP; Brad Boll as Most Improved Player; Kurt Ellefson as Lineman of the Year, and Ellefson and Chris Finley as Co-Captains. In addition, Ellefson, Finley, Fuller, Eric Ogden, Mark Rieder, Paul Treufiardt, Dave Grimm, and Dennis Carroll wrere named to first team of the All Conference Team, while Leuzinger, Carroll. Boll, Rick Bennett, Jim Yurs, and Lee Wunschel made the second team. Perhaps it was Coach Martin who summed up the season the best when he said that (Monroe) didn't win conference, yet winning 8 games and having the best team in conference was very satisfying. One thing is for certain — 1985 will not soon be forgotten by the football fans of Monroe. Quarterback Chris Finley (left) looks downfield to see if he should run or pass.

The team reeled off consecutive victories over Janesville Craig, Platteville, Sauk Prairie and Oregon before stumbling and losing games to Monona Grove and Middleton. The Cheesemakers then picked themselves up from the bottom of muddy T.R. Holyoke Swamp and closed out the season with impressive wins over Fort Atkinson and Stoughton. Leading the way on offense for the JV's were quarterback Rich Kubly with a 49% pass completions rate, running back Brian Dillon who gained 363 yards on 64 carries, and Matt Jelinek, a wide receiver who caught 12 passes for 162 yards. Monroe was paced defensively by hard-hitting linebacker Kevin Leuzinger, who took part in 55 gang tackles and was also credited with 26 solo tackles. Opposing quarterbacks trembled at the sight of lineman Ron Markham, who led the team with 11 quarterback sacks. The Freshman, coached by Mr. George Scott, also enjoyed a winning season, ending with a 4-3 record. On the field the team was led by quarterback Dan Frehner. junior Varsity Football.

NETTERS HAVE MOST SUCCESSFUL SEASON EVER The Girls' Tennis program here at MHS took a giant step, in terms of respect, when they posted an outstanding 6 1 record and finished second in conference behind Stoughton. This marked the highest any girls' tennis team had finished at Monroe High School. Even though a host of senior letter winners returned for the '85 season, success, by no means, came easily. It was the result of working extremely hard in practice all year long, pulling together as a team, and keeping a very positive attitude. It was, as senior Barb Du Charme put, total commitment. While everyone did their part to propel the team through this banner season, the stars of Maureen Deignan and Marcia Weigel shone particularly bright. Deignan, only a sophomore, earned the right to compete at the number one singles position and did an excellent job. She will no doubt be looked upon to play a leading role in the successes of future teams. Weigel, a senior, played at the extremely competitive number two singles spot, where she compiled an unbelievable 19-1 mark. Even though the team was disappointed that they did not win conference, they provided the MHS Girls' Tennis program with a cornerstone on Marcia Wiegel prepares to return her opponent's shot.

And for that they can be very proud. In looking back at the season the JV team enjoyed, one can only marvel at the level of perfection they attained. Coming into the season, the girls had not only set winning the conference meet as one of their goals, but they also wanted to go undefeated throughout the entire year. And when the dust cleared and the season had ended, the team successfully achieved these goals. Jill Peterson paced the Cheesemakers individually. In addition to going undefeated at number three singles, she also captured a singles championship at the conference meet. Coach Lori Wueve, when asked what was the biggest disappointment of the season, showed her satisfaction by saying none, it was a super season. Monroe tennis fans should be able to expect great things from this team when they reach the Varsity level. MHS SPIKERS EXPERIENCE UPS, DOWNS In a season of tough breaks and near-wins , a 2-10 conference record didn't really reflect the true ability of the Varsity Volleyball team in 1985. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was coming so close to victory so many times and then letting it slip away from us, coach Jan Alt said. The Cheesemakers finished second in their own invitational tournament, overwhelmingly defeated powerful Middleton early in the season, and nearly won the Janesville regionals. On an individual level, Cheryl Wang was named to the All-Conference team because of her spiking abilities, while Tiff Hartwig got Honorable Mention as a server. In addition, several team awards were given. Jolene Heins was named Most Valuable Player, Hartwig received the Ms. Hustle award, and 4 Mindy Ellingson practices her serve with a teammate.(above) Standing with her back to the action, Michelle Tindell sends the ball on its way over the net.(above right) 58 Mindy Ellingson was named Most Improved. The Junior Varsity team also labored through a losing season, finishing with a 3-9 conference record. Coach Cindy Sar-backer was able to find something positive, though, when she noted that the squad played as a team instead of a group of individuals. Receiving awards for the JV's were Heidi Brockman, who was named the Most Valuable Player, Jenny Vita, who won the Spirit Award, and Chris Tindell, who was selected as Most Improved. The freshman, under Coach McCabe, finished the year with a 6-6 record. The fine-tuning of basic skills, a goal at the beginning of the season, was met, which resulted in a good offensive attack. However, Coach McCabe cited that the team lacked the confidence that is needed to win close games. While the coach was a bit disappointed with the 6-6 mark, she was very satisfied with skill level improvements. According to McCabe the highlight of the season was ending up with a .500 record, enabling the coach to substitute more freely than ever during the final match.

CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS The girls varsity basketball team not only ended the 1985-86 campaign with a magnificent 16-4 overall record, but also captured a conference cochampionship with an equally impressive 10-2 conference mark. In one of the most exciting moments of the season, a screaming home-court crowd watched as Monroe pulled away from Stoughton in the fourth quarter to clinch a tie for the conference championship with Monona Grove. But just a few days later, the team and its fans had to endure a heartbreaking loss to Beloit Memorial in the first round of WIAA Tournament play. The season was suddenly over, but not before the players had established a new record for wins in a season (16), and perhaps more importantly, a winning tradition for future teams to build upon. Monroe's Janet Rackow capped off an outstanding season by being named to the all-conference first team. Colleen and Maureen Deignan were named to the second team, and Marcia Wiegel received honorable mention. Monroe's Maureen Deignan battles an opponent for the ball.

The Girls' JV team, coached by Mr. Kevin Keen, put together an incredible 19-0 record, with 12 of these wins coming in conference play. Leading the way for Monroe were Peggy Shreve and Becky Klemm, who scored 232 and 214 points respectively, and Carrie Ballard, who paced the team with 143 rebounds. Although picking out one high point in a perfect season is a difficult task, a come from behind win over Madison Edgewood stood out particularly large in Coach Keen s mind. Not only did the Cheesemakers win after trailing by as many as 18 points, but Mr. Keen s first son, Eric, was bom earlier that morning. The freshman teams also enjoyed a tremendously successful year, with the A team finishing with a 13-1 record, and the B team ending up with a 5-1 record. Leading the A squad was Jodi Indergand, who scored 103 points, and Ellen Sathoff, who grabbed 115 rebounds. For the B'' team, Trish Finley led the way with 53 points, while Marsha Templeton added 32 rebounds. 62 JV AND FROSH; EXPERIENCE THROUGH COMPETITION For the JV's, Coach Dale Buvid led a bunch of overachievers to a very respectable 12-7 overall record, even though the thief named Injury stole the services of some of the teams' most talented players for extended stretches of time. Leading the Cheesemakers as the point guard was Rich Kubly. In addition to serving as the coach on the court , Kubly led the team in scoring with 270 points and in assists, where he had 57. Even though he played in only 11 games because of injuries. Matt Jelinek showed his domination of the boards by leading the team with 94 rebounds. Kevin Leuzinger was named the teams' Best Defensive Player, while Brian Dillon and freshman Dick Barry were cited at the players who were Most Improved. Kubly and Jelinek also were names captains for the team. Although it was a disappointment for Coach Buvid that the full team wasn't able to play all the time because of injuries, the Coach did list a season-ending victory over Stoughton as a high point of the season. In this game, the Cheesemakers were without three starters, yet still won the game. Coach Buvid summed up the season when he stated considering all the injuries we feel we had a very good year. The freshman teams, coached by Mr. Weuve, enjoyed mixed results. The A team ended with a 10-5 record while the B squad finished with a 1-10 mark. Leading the A team was Kory Stoehr, who scored 211 points and 96 rebounds, both tops for the team. The B team was led by Brad Mollenbemdt, who scored 46 points, and Bob Stauffacher, who grabbed 62 rebounds. Rich Kubly waits at center court while a teammate shoots freethrows.

Expectations by players and fans alike were high coming into the season, but a number of close losses gave the Cheesemakers a somewhat disappointing 3-9 conference record. Monroe was able to do better against its non-conference foes, compiling a 5-4 record for an overall 8-13 win-loss mark. Among the highlights of the season, though, was the teams' play in the postseason WIAA tournament. After winning a thrilling contest on their own floor against Beloit Memorial, the Cheesemakers had a regional title in their sights until Janesville Parker blew open a tight game in the fourth quarter. The Cheesemakers lost, 72-57, and were forced to watch the rest of the tournament as spectators. Individually, the Cheesemakers were led by senior Brian Bruess. Bruess, in addition to being named captain and Most Valuable Player, was also selected to all-conference first team. Also receiving awards were Randy Guttenberg, who was named Most Improved, and Chris Milz and Mark Rieder for best practice players. 64 VARSITY BOYS BASKETBALL: Front Row; Kurt Schulz.

In regular season competition the team finished with a 3-3 conference and a 6-4 overall record. A real highlight for the team, in addition to post season action, was the fact that two wrestlers, Jesse Armstrong and Kurt Grossen, were able to make it to the state tournament in Madison. But the season was not without its disappointments, most notably a mediocre conference record and a lopsided 61-0 loss to Stoughton. Winning individual awards for Monroe were: Kurt Grossen, Outstanding Wrestler, Most Takedowns, Most Team Points; Brad Stewart, Most Improved; Scott Sorenson, Most Dedicated; and Tom Witt, Most Falls. Junior Scott Sorenson maneuvers his Oregon opponent on his back in a varisty match. Jesse Armstrong starts his second time period of his 126 pound match on top of his Oregon competitor.

The only people seen at this atrocious hour are maybe a few paperboys, who are delivering papers while they still resemble sleeping people. But wait, a car has arrived at the high school. There are at least six (asleep) people piling out of this car. Here comes another car and another. What is going on? This, now large, group of individuals has entered the M-Room and ventured to the locker rooms and finally into the gymnasium. Yes, once again the MHS gym was the scene of early morning excitement in 1985-86 intramurals. Playing different teams every Tuesday morning, the intramural Volleyball League was composed of seven teams, both female and male. Based on a divided time period, 3 games of volieyball were allotted before the 8 o'clock bell. Winning the volleyball title, Goot captained by Brian Keith was an all male team which thrived on spiking their opponents. After volleyball came the ever popular Intramural Basketball. Composed of only male teams, Intramural Basketball was run slightly different than Volleyball. First, all of the teams would play each other much like the seasonal play, then during the final week the top four teams would play off in an end of year tournament. With a seven man roster, the Black Spots took no prisoners in rolling through an undefeated Intramural Basketball season. Being its second season, Badminton was once again played as an intramural sport. The divisions included singles, doubles, and mixed doubles. Winners in each category were given awards for their participation. Brand new this year was an Intramural Bowling League. Held at Leisure Lanes, this league came about as an offshoot of the popular bowling units that are offered in Physical Education classes. Keith Vance waits for the birdie to come down so he can smash it across the net. Vance was crowned champion in singles, doubles, and mixed doubles play.

Alon with the student body, I stereotyped cheerleaders as the dumb blondes The ones who date the jocks, the ones who have IQ's in the zero to negative fifty range, and the ones whose fingernail polish matches their clothes. Anvwav, I began to consider trying out for cheerleading. After debating, I found myself at the first try-out practice. While stretching out, I was listening to the PC's (Professional Cheerleaders; the girls who have cheered from seventh erade through high school). They began to discuss eagles, hurkies, and other cheerleader jargon . This is where I began to worry. These terms were above my head. Yes, the idea of quietly leaving while no one was looking crossed my mind. Not knowing why, I stayed! The next week was spent, first trying to coordinate my hands and feet, second, trying to coordinate the words and actions, and third, trying to smile. You may ask, how hard is it to smile and I'll tell you — plenty hard. O.K., you try to swin your hands above your head, kick your legs to the side (while in mid-air) and also show’ your pearly whites. Not as easy as you think. Of course, the rule is, if the jump, stunt or cheer fails and you end up on the floor instead of on your feet, smile harder and pretend it was planned. The trying-out, in my mind, would be casual. Was I wrong! Arriving at the gym there was tension; you could feel it. Everyone was hyper — I swear one girl went to the batnroom eight times. As each girl individually went before the judges, who refused to smile or look as if they were enjoying themselves, I became nervous. As my turn came, 1 ran out on the gym floor. The judges peered at me as if I were in deten tion. Remember to smile, I thought, if nothing else, they'll see that I have nice teeth. The girls hushed and I knew they were watching me. I could tell what they were thinking; will she make the squad? will she actually remember the words? and, will she FALL? All I remember is running off into the mob of girls overwhelmed that it was over. Watching the others, 1 realized these girls were serious. These girls weren t bubble neads at all. They were dedicated cheerleaders who worked hard and took pride in their sport. As the try-outs ended, the advisors thanked us and, said that we were all great. After an eternity (at least a week), the results were posted. I had made the squad. When our season opened not only did I feel out of place among the squad, I felt very inferior. Since 1 was the only person who had not been a cheerleader nefore, I had a lone road ahead of me. While the five other cheerleaders discussed pyramids and the upcoming pep rally, I was trying to spell p-s-y-c-h e-d (I am proud to say that I've achieved this). Soon 1 oegan to catch on. With a few snags, such as bruises, the rest of the season went smoothly. As the season closed, I was sad to see it end. Being a cheerleader taught me that cheerleading was a sport that should be recognized as important by students and faculty alike. Likewise, cheerleaders aren't the dumb blondes . Cheerleaders are athletes who deserve a hand. -Barbara DuCharme FRESHMAN FOOTBALL: Front Row; Angie Oakland. Milissa lohnson Second Row; Sarah Friedrichs, julie JV FOOTBALL: Front Row; Rita Vogel.

At first, a lot of freshmen were kind of afraid of doing better than some of the upperclassmen, but now they realize that we're just one bi family and we work together to reach our goals,' said Senior Beth Som. Freshmen that contributed to the team were Pegey Miller and Jeni Carter in the 400 meter relay, Gail Brukwicki in the 800 and Debbie Tscnudy and Mary Monahan in the 1600 relay. Our team had a special bond that kept us together. Without it, we couldn't have pulled through some of our close meets that we did, explained freshman Katy Deignan. But even with the special closeness, the girls' tTack team couldn't pull off a fifth consecutive conference championship. At the conference meet held at T.R. Holyoke Field, the girls placed third with 85 points and tied for second with Sauk Prairie. Monroe had 2 individual champions at the meet. Beth Som won the shot put title and Katy Deignan won the 800 meters. The only thing we can do is strive and keep practicing so that we can regain the Conference Honor, summed up Deignan. Captained by Dolly Brennan, Colleen Deignan, and Ann Glendenning, the Varsity eirls placed seventh at the Fort Atkinson Invitation, fourth at Stoughton Invitationals. In Junior Varsity Action, the team scored 146 points to place second to Fort Atkinson's 147 points in the J.V. Conference meet at Stoughton. Coming home J.V. Champs were: Dawn Tschudy, 1600 meters; Jody Indergand, shot put; Gail Brukwicki, 3200 meter; and the 3200 relay of D. Tschudy, Sarah Munro, Maureen Deignan, and Trish Bloom.

GREAT DEPTH SEEN IN MANY AREAS When the season started, our hopes were up for a good season ... During the indoor season, our performances were only average, but once the outdoor season started, things started going our way. This opinion by John Staab and shared by his teammates, seemed to characterize this year's track season. The Simpson Relays, held in Monroe on April 26, was an exciting event for the boys. They took first place, defeating Fort Atkinson, Sauk Prairie, Stoughton, and Monona Grove. Monroe defeated their first three Badger Conference opponents, but lost to Fort Atkinson, Sauk Prairie, and Oregon. These losses diminished Monroe's hopes of becoming conference champions. Monroe finished fourth at Badger Conference held in Monroe on May 20. The teams's real strength was found in the great depth of many areas. Although as a team, Monroe did not win conference, Monroe did have many individual champions. Some of these were: Brian Masshardt in the 3200 meter; Brian Bruess in the triple jump; and the 3200 meter relay team of Neil Whitehead, Jeff Metcalf, Wade Flisram, and John Staab. This relay team remain- ed undefeated throughout the conference season. W1AA competition began May 27 with regjonals at Fort Atkinson. From here, the top three competitors in each event advanced to sectionals at Janesville, May 29. The top two at sectionals competed at Mansfield Stadium, June 6 and 7.

Coach Buvid said, We are so young ... but it's not as serious as it would be because they played during the summer. Speaking of Lynette Studer, Buvid stated, She's been throwing hard ... she'll have a good season. Studer struck out thirteen batters to set the school record. She averaged two strikes outs per inning before giving way to the relief pitcher. The varsity team finished 2-10 in conference and 3-13 overall. Awards went to Kim Graber — Most Valuable Offensive Player, Janet Rackow — Most Valuable Defensive Player, Lynette Studer — Most Valuable Pitcher, and Heidi Brockman — Most Improved Player. Kim Graber made the All-Conference Team while Cheryl Wang received Special Mention and Janet Rackow received Honorable Mention. The Junior Varsity Team finished 7-5 in conference and 7-8 overall. Coach Sarbacker stated, This is the best the J.V. team has ever done. The Freshman Team finished 5-2. VARSITY GIRLS SOFTBALL: Row 1; Kim Graber, Janet Rackow.

If a number of close losses had gone the Cheesemakers' way, the team could have been able to challenge for the conference championship late in the season. Although the team relied on five sophomores to carry much of the team's bulk, the unquestionable leader of the team was senior Mike Leuzinger. Leuzinger led the team with a.309 batting average, 17 hits, 13 runs, and 4 stolen bases. For his efforts, Leuzinger was an honorable mention pick for the all-conference team. Receiving special mention for all-conference honors was Lee Wunschel, who led the team with 9 RBI's and a.482 on base average. Monroe's lone representative to the all-conference First team was sophomore pitcher Brian Dillon, who compiled a 4-3 record. The J.V. team, coached by Mr. Weuve, finished a 6-6 conference and 7-7-1 overall record. Leading the team offensively was sophomore, Ron Markham who paced the team with 16 runs, 26 hits, a.586 on base average, and a.473 batting average. The Freshman team, coached by Mr. Ray Jones also had a solid year, finishing at 3-4. VARSITY BASEBALL: Row 1; Brad Boll, Rick Wuebben, BarTy Einbeck, Terry Endres, Gary Wuthrich.

Varsity Coach Mr. Bartholf said, Playing with young, inexperienced players, our goal was to play competitive tennis at or near the end of our season. And true to their goals, the boys' tennis team did improve greatly over the season. The team placed second at the Janesville Invitational which included a total of sixteen teams. In the Badger Conference Tournament, the team was runner-up. Playing at the number one varsity singles position, Chris Milz was a good, sound tennis player who was second best in Conference. Curt Coplien, the best doubles player on the team, and Barry Whalen were the second best doubles team in conference. The varsity team finished 7-3 overall in duals, 4-2 in Badger Conference and third place in final Badger standings. The J.V. tennis team had a frustrating year because they were often just a few points away from a better finish. John Raettig improved much throughout the season, moving up to number one singles player. A highlight of their season was Mark Inman's second place finish at the conference meet. They finished with a 1-8-1 overall record and a 1-4-1 conference record. The J.V. tennis program continues to be a competitive training ground for future varsity tennis players.

MHS GOLFERS SILENCE CRITICS At the beginning of the 1986 season, the prospects for the Monroe High School Golf team did not look bright. A schedule that consisted of largely away matches and the fact that the team would have to count on several untested Freshmen caused many so-called “experts'' to pick the Cheesemakers to end up in the bottom half of the conference standings. It was a tribute to each golfer's talent and determination, then, when not only did the team place second in conference after grabbing second place in the conference match, but also advanced to sectionals after once again placing second, this time at the Dodgeville Regional tournament. Advancing to sectionals for Monroe were Jeff Frehner, Dan Frehner, Kurt Schulz, Chris Deininger, and Brian Keith. Also seeing Varsity action this year were Dick Barry, Tom Gauger, Todd Klippel, and Lance Sathoff. J.V. golfers included Mark Rufenacht, Gary Klippel, Todd Schluesche, and Carrie Ballard. Perhaps the highlight of the conference regular season was a narrow 198-200 victory over eventual conference champ Stoughton. Even though the golfers had to contend with greens that were in the process of being repaired, the Varsity team still managed to turn in their best team effort of the year and upset the favored Vikings. Lance Sathoff shows teammate Mark Rufenacht the proper putting technique. GOLF: Row 1; Tim Hartwig, Todd Schluesche, Tom Gauger, Mark Rufenacht, Brian Keith, Jeff Frehner.

Second Front Page The dreaded essay question is a favorite testing method of the man chosen best teacher hy the junior and senior classes. Liaison Board held elections to find out the most popular teacher of each of the four classes. The upper classmen pulled together electing Mr. A1 Stauffacher their favorite. Mr. Stauffacher attained his Bachelor’s Degree and his Master’s Degree at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville. He is well known among older students because he teaches mostly upperclassmen electives. Most of his tests are given college-style in essay questions. He leads discussions with an easy manner that involves everyone. His intelligence shows through as he conducts his classes. Being a people-lover, he has talked with many people giving him inside views on issues covered in his classes. One of the very first impressions upon entering his room deals with the multitude of books which line the walls. Shocked to learn that these books are only a part of his huge personal library, students sometimes wonder how anyone could digest these volumes. Mr. Stauffacher has had no problem. Liaison Board created the polls, but Mr. Stauffacher won the race. Even though his tests are college-style essay questions, it is obvious that Mr. A1 Stauffacher has won the admiration of the student body.

Does this mean that the MHS Math Department is sloughing off? No, it probably means that the student wasn't thinking. The math program here must be doing something correctly as enrollment is consistently high. As we are now in an era when math is becoming more and more important, students can only logically take — yes, that's right, more math. The freshman are now required to study math for two years instead of the traditional one year. Whether they go on to school or get a job after graduation, they will be prepared for a future dealing with more mathematically involved activities. For many years, colleges have required incoming frosh to have two years of high school math: one year of algebra and one year of geometry. The latest trend is a desirable third elective in the growing field of math. As of yet, it is no an admissions requirement, but it is definitely a good idea. Monroe math offers a wide variety of courses in the math department. The classes range from the basic general math all the way to mind-boggling calculus, for which the seniors have studying get-togethers in order to pool their brain power. Whether students are motivated to take more math because they enjoy it or because they are future minded can be debated. What can not be argued is the fact that more students are taking more math. That implies that the math department is no sloughing, even if a few individuals still have a little problem with multiples of ten every now and then. 80 Math Department.

HANDS CHANGE Man's hands are without a doubt, his most important physical tool. Odd and unusual things occur to these vital pieces of equipment in science classes. The normal, unmarred, flesh toned skin not only suffers bums and cuts, but also turns new and interesting (if not embarrassing) colors during labs. The acids used in Chemistry have the remarkable ability to eat away at flesh, clothing, shoes or whatever else it might come into contact with. Fortunately, the acids are usually diluted before class. Some students still run into problems with the acids due to lack of attention or sheer clumsiness on their parts. During biology, various stains are added to cells so that the human eye can more readily detect nuclei, membranes and other structures. These brightly colored stains do wonders making the structures more visible, but the results often include purple, blue, yellow or pink hands. While these colors are very pretty for the First few hours, by the time the Friday night dance rolls around, few people are exactly thrilled with the hue. Some amazing feature of the stains seems to draw the liquids toward students as though both were opposite magnetic poles. The ever popular gas torch is used in different science classes for various reasons. The little flame which is dispelled from the burner hardly seems dangerous, yet most students manage to bum themselves during the first five or six encounters. Hands are not the only objects which wander into the path of the treacherous fire. Pencils are accidentally held over the heat until they become charred black. Lab papers become magically marred with holes in the sides or mysteriously lose centers. Less desirable, hair is also singed from time to time. Physics and computers are relatively safe classes as far as the hands are concerned. Yet once in a while, fingers get smashed during the building of bridges in physics. If a harmless science class is desired, then computers is the answer — the only risk being perhaps cramped fingers from typing. The human hand may suffer during the hours spent in sciences classes, but the knowledge gained is more than worthwhile for preparation of the future. The teachers composing the department strive to pound facts and figures into the minds of students. Hands may yield to various degrees of physical abuse, but the minds acquire wonderful information. 81 RADIO AND TV COMMUNICATIONS CONTINUE TO GROW 1985-86 marked the second year of existence for the Radio and Television Communications class here at Monroe High School. This year the class was a combination of 17 beginning students and 7 returning, or advanced students. Teaching the class were Mr. Pawlowski and Mrs. Carter. In addition to the morning radio shows they broadcast over the intercom, members of the class were kept busy with learning how to operate some very complicated (and expensive) machinery such as editors, cameras, and mixing boards. When thy finally mastered these skills, the students put their knowledge to work by making mastered these skills, the students put their knowledge to work by making thir own video productions. Two of the most visible of these were the football game and the basketball game that were broadcast. Featuring students as camera operators, announcers, and editors, the public got a glimpse of what the radio and television class is capable of doing. Todd Schluesche deeply concentrates while editing a show. As you can see, Mr. Pawlowski and Mrs. Carter have thoroughly enjoyed their year together. Craig Mauermann and Matt Binger eagerly prepare for a new T. V. show. FOREIGN LANGUAGE CLASSES ENJOY ANOTHER BUSY YEAR The 1985-86 school year was another exciting one for both the teachers and students involved in the foreign language department. Tne French teacher, Mr. Larry Larson, stated that a variety of activities were offered in his class, which ranged 'from academic to amusing ' These activities included learning games, bingo, singing, and video tapes of famous French stores. The end result of all this was that students not only listened, spoke, read,and wrote in French, but were also introduced to French culture around the world. In the Spanish department, things were equally as hectic. Students kept busy speaking, reading, ana writing Spanish. In addition, students became aware of cultral differences and developed sensitivity toward these differences. Assisting Mrs. Hendrickson in teaching these was a nelw face as MHS, Mrs. Hogan. Also providing to be an excellent resource was Juan de Dios Mora, an AFS student who was here from Spain. Seniors enrolled in Spanish chose a project from a cfiverse list that included teaching Spanish to grade schoolers, teaching English to Nicaraguan children, and cooking Hispanic foods, to name a few. German students under Ms. Sarbacker learned how to understand and coverse in German through the use of practical usage not only in class, but outside of class as well. Some of the methods used in class to teach the students were singing and playing Trivial Pursuit and Scrabble in German. In addition, Ms. Sarbacker noted that her class sizes during the past year continued to expand mainly becauseit is a good program and (students') added awareness of college requirements. Pam Bruni joins in on the lap game famous of the French class. Miss Hendrickson prepares her Spanish class for an eventful hour. Mr. Larson (French), Mrs. Hendrickson (Spanish), Mrs. Hogan (Spanish) and Mrs. Sarbacker (German), are all successfully devoted to their foreign language. 83 English Classes Benefits College Preparation for students continuing in college is a big asset of the Monroe Senior High English department. Nearly all classes use college vocabulary and even college texts to some degree. For example, the research procedures class is a course designed for students who will have to write extensive term papers in college. The courses, taught by Mr. Brockman and Mrs. Spoerry, use Turabian's Student's Guide for Writing College Papers, as their source to correctly develop term papers. Most of the literature read in World Literature and Composition classes, such as Hamlet, Plato, and Oedipus the Great, are on college reading lists. Most vocabulary words that are studied in Freshman 9, practical English, and intermediate grammar and composition courses are suggested vocabulary lists from various colleges, technical schools and life situations. Another benefit of our English department is that teachers taught different courses than previously. Mr. Trampe was no longer just a speech teacher. Besides his usual sophomore speech classes, he also taught a group of English 9 students, while Mrs. Spoerry took some speech students. Miss Dexheimer lectured world literature classes as well as general literature, while Mr. Brockman educated some of the grammar and composition students. The reversal of teachers and courses created a different atmosphere and a tremendous advantage because sometimes teachers get too mechanical in their ways, remarked Mrs. Spoerry. )eff Updike practices his grammar for Mr. Lawrence's Freshman 9 class. English Department: Mr Bruess, Mrs. Carter, Mr. Brockman, Ms. Dexheimer, Mr. Lawrence, Mrs. Spoerry, Mrs. Schilt, Mr. Trampe. Guest Speakers Add To Business Classes To avoid the dreary lectures taking place in business classes, guest speakers were brought in relieve the monotony. The speakers added a different perspective and were also very educational. Juvenile officer, Luann Radke, gave insights on career in law. She commented on the necessary training and described her work as well. Other topics she discussed to the business law class were absolute sobriety, the juvenile code, and differences between adult and youth treatments of crimes. In office occupations. Miss Peg Kurl was invited to speak. She discussed the importance of good grooming for working women. Being a color analysis specialist. Miss Kurl also commented on careers in cosmetology and related fields. Mrs. Zander's fundamentals of business classes also had several guest speakers to add variety to the course. When the class was comparing economic systems of India and the United States, Mrs. Margaret George talked about the economy of India. Mr. Jon Rufenacht spoke about the skills and knowledge needed to operate businesses. Mr. Dennis Esslinger, owner of the Roller Den, also discussed insights from his own experiences on the fundamentals of owning a business. Other speakers of Mrs. Zander's class included Mr. Ron Hayes, and Mr. Jim Finley. Mr. Hayes commented on the importance of advertising, and how it affects businesses. He also discussed different techniques of advertising and answered questions. Mr. Finley remarked about the methods of banking that businesses use and financial needs of businesses.

ART DEPARTMENT: Mr. Pawlowski and Mrs. Clendenning. Student, Julie Andrews, contemplates a painting. P-f flBM NOT JUST A PICTURE Students enrolled in an art class may be involved in one of many classes. These include Art I and II, creative and advanced creative print making, crafts and advanced crafts, and independent studies taught by Mr. Walter Pawlowski. Mrs. Donna Glendenning teaches sculptural and advanced sculptural design, painting and advanced painting. These courses not only teach the skill offered, but also teach the concept of visual literacy. Visual literacy is really seeing and object, not just identifying it. Is a picture merely a picture? No, it is not just a picture. It is unique. It has special characteristics that make it different from anything else in the entire world. Knowing these differences is visual literacy. Mr. Pawlowski and Mrs. Glendenning stress the importance of art involvement in their classes. Using our eyes is something most take for granted. But knowing the meaning of what is seen needs to be learned. Art is not just a picture. It is all around us. It is a part of us. Mr. Pawlowski aids Ken Kosowicz in a new art assignment. Trudi Stocker weaves her crafts project. 86 HOME LIFE ASPECT TAUGHT Home economics as a whole department has a great variety of courses available for students. They deal with all aspects of home life and take it farther than the bare necessities for the interested student. The Home Ec department is divided into three basic sections. One is the clothing department, under the direction of Mrs. Hart. Courses to chose from include, consumer clothing, intermediate clothing, family textiles, and experimental clothing. She also teaches senior survey and survival skills. In Mrs. Hart's classes, students do not only learn sewing skills, but also learn fashion design and other aspects of the clothing industry. Another is the foods department, taught by Miss Demik. Classes available are experimental foods, food preparation. Foods II, and creative meals. She also teaches senior survey. These allow the student to expand their knowledge of preparing a snack, to cooking a gourmet dinner. Mrs. Kranig is the teacher in the family living department. One may choose from contemporary family living and child development I and II, and housing. She also instructs survival skills. Her classes are concerned with aspects of everyday living. Classes can help to familiarize a student with problems that may be encountered in their life and offers options for solutions. Home economics covers nearly every part of everyday living. It is hard for anyone to escape the knowledge gained in a Home Ec course, throughout the course of their whole life. It is easy to see that Home Ec is not just for the girls. Home Ec Department: Mrs. Hart, Miss DeMik, and Mrs. Kranig. Mrs. Kranig prepares the lesson for her next class. A BIT OF HISTORY: SOCIAL STUDIES The world of Social Studies is a broad never-ending field. The classes offered and required, in our own curriculum, give us an example of this. Freshman take western heritage to expand their knowledge about the western hemisphere. Sophomore year brings the first m a four part series. American Heritage 1, covering American history is general from colonization to the present, is required. American Heritage II and III are geared for the Juniors. American Heritage 11 studies the American lifestyles through books, articles, and reports. American Heritage III is split with nine weeks dealing with wars from the War of 1812 to wars of this century with American involvement. The second nine weeks goes over more domestic problems. The Senior year tops off the series with American Heritage IV. This class covers politics and governmental activities with the aspects of the laws and rights for citizens of the United States. Some students elect to take a variety of other social studies related courses through necessity or an interest in the classes subject. Social psychology is an introductory course to psychological concepts which uses personal experiences as a way to understand the different ideas brought up. The future is a course that explores the possibilities of life in the United States twenty to fifty years from now. American problems deals with current economic, social, and political problems. This morning in the news teaches a student how to use newspapers and periodicals to stay in touch with what's happening now. Indians and the American west looks at the native American, his life and culture along with the development of the west. Twentieth century history is designed to help shape a better future by understanding the past. Although social studies scares some students, it is essential for graduation and general knowledge of our country. The variety in the courses gives everyone a chance to find a topic which is most suitable for him. Social Studies Department: Mr. Guth, Mr. Stauffacher. Ms. Alt, Mr. Weuve, Mr. Simonis, and Mr Lancaster. While on hall duty during his free period, Mr. Stauffacher watches the halls for any excaped students. Reviewing quarter grades, Mr. Lancaster takes each student individually into the hall to discuss his progress within his class. 88 PHYSICAL EDUCATION WELCOMES McCABE The physical education department was happy to welcome Miss Colleen McCabe, its newest staff member. She was a graduate of UW-Oshkosh, where she received her degree in physical education with a minor in Health Education. Because she enjoys the students and faculty. Miss McCabe looked forward to staying in the community for an extended period of time. Miss McCabe enjoys all sports, but her favorites include volleyball and personal conditioning. She enjoys volleyball so much, that she. was the freshman volleyball coach. Personal conditioning, which includes running and weight lifting, were incorporated into all of her classes. According to Miss McCabe, Basic skills are very important in any sport. Although she feels the Monroe High School students have a positive attitude, she said, ... the use of basic skills ,is somewhat weak. Teaching these vital skills, McCabe felt it was a bit difficult because the students thought it was below their level. Shaping up physical health is important for mental health. As McCabe said, Though the use of your body, you can gain more energy physically and mentally. This will prepare you for the classroom. Remember that if you want to be a good student you should be in good physical shape. Just as past students were excited about drivers education, this year was no exception. Those students who passed all the requirements of drivers education could then attempt to pass their drivers test given by the transportation center. The requirements of the class included receiving a passing grade in both quarters and also on the semester exam. Driving with Mr. Larson, is optional, but it must be done if one want to get your drivers license. Physical Education Departmental-. Morgan, Mr. Martin, and Miss McCabe.

The Ag and Industrial Education classes provide many opportunities for the students. Monroe High School is fortunate to have the teachers and equipment to offer these courses. Since 1941 when Vocational Ag was introduced at Monroe High School, it has run on a four year cycle. This cycle consists of livestock and feeding, farm records and management, soils and plant sciences, and machinery maintenance of which one fourth of each area is covered yearly. Our dedicated teachers, Mr. Allen and Mr. Emmons, both teach the Juniors and Seniors but it is primarily Mr. Allen who teaches the Freshman and Sophomores. Speaking of the students, Allen said, 80% of the class are rural students while only 20% are city kids. The Industrial Arts curriculum is based on photography, woods, electricity, drafting and metal working. The teachers, through various projects, assist the students in gaining confidence, pride and a knowledge of the equipment they will be using. The students also develop individualism, which is helpful for all aspects of life. When asked how Monroe High School compares with other schools in the state, Mr. Bartholf, head of the Industrial Arts department commented, Industrial Education at MHS is among the best in the state for our size. This quality and commitment given by the teachers undoubtedly benefits the students. The variety of classes helps students expand their skills and secure a future career. Monroe High School continues the tradition of excellence through opportunities in these departments. Industrial Education: sitting, Mr. Cairy and Mr. Tupper, standing, Mr. Klippel, Mr. Nelson, and Mr. Bartholf. Agriculture Department: Mr. Allen and Mr. Emmons. David Schramm helps Bill Seffrood with his agriculture assignment dealing with conservation. Dan Riese drills a hole in his metals project. Upon Finishing his project, he will be graded on the structure of his work. 90 MHS ALIVE WITH MUSIC Music is a universal language, whether it is spoken through the driving beat of Ratt, the sentiment of Air Supply, the lone wail of the saxophone jazz, or through the delicate melodies of an orchestral violin. Most people just listen, but some have the desire to create music. For those students who wish to make music, the MHS Music department offers a variety of band and choral activities. This year many sweet sounds, created by the new band director, Mr. Randy Schneeberger, could be heard coming from the band room. When he is not directing Concert Band or one of various other extra-curricular groups, Mr. Schneeberger can usually be found helping a brass player,, because that's his area of expertise. He has played the trumpet professionally for many years and still continues to perform at many events. Although it is not always easy being the new kid on the block, Mr. Schneeberger still feels confident enough to say even with the ups and downs of trying to change my lifestyle and outlook. I'd do it again. Sharing knowledge with willing students makes this job worthwhile. Teaching at Monroe High School is not the end of the road in his career. Mr. Schneeberger would like to return to school to earn his Masters and Doctorate degree, eventually teaching at the college level. Both Mr. Schneeberger and Mr. Schilt have a very evident love of music. They feel that band has much to offer a student; self-discipline skills, teamwork and appreciation of music. Their strong desire to share this love of music can be felt in the words of Mr. Schneeberger; We're here to make the best even better. Leaving the band room, one does not end his musical experience. Going down the hall, the uplifting voices of Ms. Feldt and her chorus students can be heard. The students not only work on improving their vocal abilities, but they can also have fun while performing in many extra-curricular activities, such as the musical and Swing Choir. The MHS music department has a wide assortment of choices available to those students interested in the program. There are presentations during the year for those who choose ,to listen rather than perform. Let the halls ring with the many voices of music! Kevin Swanson practices xylophone during seventh hour study hall. Music Department: Mr. Schneeberger, Ms. Feldt, and Mr. Schilt. 91 IMC AND ADMINISTRATION BENEFIT MHS The Instructional Media Center (IMC) was evaluated by other area schools this year. A number of strengths were reported by the evaluation team. The team indicated that the IMC program has a professional and enthusiastic staff, and an excellent print and non-print collection. The audiovisual services and equipment were noted to be of a high quality by the evaluation team. Other strengths of the IMC include the four Apple He and two IBM computers that are consistently used by teachers and students. The computers offer a way of writing lessons and tests by teachers and a way of completing assignments for computer classes by students. Also added to the IMC were more periodicals on microfiche and a microfiche copier. Over 250 books, costing approximately $21 a piece were replaced this year. Although there are several strengths to our IMC, one major weakness is the lack of space. The much need storage space and seating space is being taken up by materials. Due to the increasing amount of print materials and equipment, valuable seating space has been taken away from our IMC. Mr. Brukwicki, Vice Principal, commented on the cooperation of the student body throughout the year. He was also pleased with the Student Assistance Program, commenting that ''more and more students are being served as the program continues to grow. Administration: Mr. Maurice Sathoff, Mr. Mike Brukwicki, Mr. Clarence Bruess. IMC Department: Mrs. Jane Shum, Mrs. Donna Glendenning, Mrs Carrie Pinnow. Michele Wyss works with Mrs. Shum, preparing materials for students' use. School Board: Mr. Bud Pilz, Mr. Ken Hartwig, Mr. James Munro, Mr. I.arry Eakins, Mrs Barb Moser, Mrs. Ruth Gibbons.

BEHIND LINES While the students at MHS battle with pen in hand in order to make the grade, a vital group of people diligently toil to aid the students on the front line. This essential gang consists of the maintenance crew and the kitchen staff. The janitors and cooks work so efficiently that they are often overlooked. The janitors are early birds starting their day about 6:00 A.M. They move quietly through the hustle and bustle of an ordinary day to keep the grounds clean. From the class rooms they sweep away the projectiles such as spit wads and all the other various articles which make their way to the floor. Dumping garbage cans, shoveling snow and picking up mail at the post office are among the tasks performed by the janitors. The working day is usually over around 5:00 P.M., but the janitors sometimes stay after the evening activities as late as 2:00 A.M. When weary, famished students head to the M-Room for lunch, food is always ready on time. The cooks begin at 6:30 A.M. and finish at about 1:00 P.M. the cooks provide food foran average of 500 students a day. The menu must consist of two ounces of meat or meat alternate, one cup of fruit or vegetables from two or more choices, bread and milk. The cooks are required to also clean the kitchen and lunchroom tables. These five industrious women labor to provide refreshing nourishment which will give the ranks energy to finish a grueling day. Some extremely hard working individuals pull together to compose a strong force behind the lines of MHS. Despite the fact that the janitors and cooks are not fully appreciated, the school could never operate without them. Cooks: Mrs Nancy Edmunds, Mrs. Shirley Bun.

She feels that since the students are likely to forget mathematics and other skills, she has a greater influence on their lives because she teaches basics for survival. With a bachelor's and master's degree from UW-Whitewater in Special Education, Miss Swanson has had several years experience working with underprivileged kids. She has also taught at Wabeno school, teaching kindergarten through twelfth (12) grades, and at Mauston for 4 years. A normal day consists of functional academics which is reading, writing and basic communication skills. Because math is a subject that the kids don't comprehend. Miss Swanson uses money to help them with their math skills, as well as help them in the future. Also, behavior and motor coordination skills are taught. Prevocational instruction is then given to the students to prepare them for jobs, usually factory work. For this experience, all the stapling and paper cutting for the school is done by them. Also, the juice and pop machines are filled by the students. In independent living, the level of skills taught, varies with each individual student's need. In this part, ordering food, and proper grooming and dressing are learned. Miss Swanson has several aides and other instructors that make her job less demanding. Mrs. Ward teaches educational disabilities. Mrs. Butler is a teacher of the Educable Trainable Retarded (EMR) students. Mrs. WTieeler instructs learning disabilities and Mrs. Leopold is a full time aide while Mrs. Hessel is a part time language instructor. Mrs. Jubeck teaches adaptive physical education and coordination skills. Also, a speech therapist, Mrs. Etter, and a physical therapist Becky Lehman are part of the group who help students leam skills they can use in the future. TMR EMR Staff: Miss Swanson, Mrs. Butler.

Brenda Hanson practices her typing skills in office practice. STUDyHALL 9: Pure and Simple Torture Study Hall in room 9, affectionately called Study Hall 9, is the most dreaded hour in an underclassman s schedule. It's an hour that is supposed to be carried out in silence, but the inevitable distractions arise. These include the crumpling of paper, the cracking of knuckles and the whiz of paper airplanes; all play a part in breaking the monotony of study and sleep. The students who dutifully report to Study Hall 9 experience intense boredom, blurred vision caused by trying to stay awake, and the fidgets — rummaging through books, folders, and purses for something to do; shifting in desks (which always creak at the slightest movement anyway); and tapping pencils and rapping fingers on the desks to an inaudible tune. While passing time, many students experience increased hearing range and the ability to see things not normally noticed. Footsteps prove an excellent example of this. They can be heard approaching from as far away as the Ag. room or even the business Hall if the atmosphere is just right. It's amazing how much attention is given to the person walking by as the entire room puts the infamous footsteps to their owner, passing cars, the tick of the clock and a person across the room sniffing should be included among the things amplified during the silence. With all the spare time on their hands, many develop keen eyesight. As the hours go by, the ability to read a note across the rows or up a few desks may prove useful and somewhat entertaining if the topics interest the nosy neighbor. For those always looking up, the false ceiling provides astounding facts, like how many cracks or dots it contains or the amount of still sticking spit wads remain from the previous hours (or maybe years!?!). Another thing that amuses and distracts these sufferers is watching two people that sit on opposite sides of the room try to talk or pass notes without getting caught. Mouthing messages and sign language provide popular methods but may be undecodeable. The art of note passing is dependent on the passers involved between the sender and the receiver. If lucky, the middle men remain cooperative and keep the notes in motion. If not, such tactics as dropping it on the desk as they go up to sharpen a pencil, throw aw'ay paper or look up words; or better still, they try to toss the folded note up three rows, over six seats and to the left or right without being spotted or intercepted. All ways have been tried, some with more success than others. The teacher is a vital part of Study Hall 9's tolerability. If the teacher is pretty lenient, then there is less friction, and the hour is bearable. If the teacher is strict, enforces absolute silence and seems to live to yell at select students, then it may be a little tougher. The ill-tempered teachers are the most remembered, of course, and will live infinitely with the memories of the room and the hour. There have also been those teachers that put on more of a show than students. A very few may be guilty of nodding off, forgetting work and digging endlessly for something to do. (But sshhh . . . don't tell anybody!) This infamous room and the time spent there will be experienced by every freshman and sophomore entering MHS. Approximately one hour of pure and simple torture — sitting relatively still, being quiet and doing homework — at least once a day is almost too much for anyone, but we have all lived through it. Study Hall 9 is forever embedded in our minds, and we have grown grateful to have been promoted to better memories. In Biology 10 taught by Mr. Bieneman.

DELIVERED TO MHS Simulations Stimulate Study A large majority of the freshmen took Western Heritage to fill up one of the seven hours in their schedules. Simulations were used as a teaching method from time to time. The simulations covered different eras for the purpose of creating the basic feeling of the time period. The Sphinx and Pharoahs of ancient Egyptian culture have captured the attention of students all over the world for many years. While most high school students just read about the far away wonders of the land, the freshmen at MHS were involved in a simulation which had them exploring the ruins of a pyramid. Toga Day may traditionally be for seniors, but the frosh participated in a simulation dealing with historic Roman life. They drew roles which denoted their cash on hand and social status. Assignments were given and could help to raise the students socially in the game. Dealing with the ups and downs of life in ancient Rome, some students decided to work their way up the political ladder. They began at a low level office, working up to the highest possible office. Study of the Age of Exploration found students in yet another simulation. The class was split into three or four groups. Each group portrayed an imaginary country. The countries had either a king or queen. Each magistrate had a staff of advisors such as military advisors, ambassadors and ministers of various topics. The “countries competed against each other to explore and colonize a make-believe continent. The discovered such treasures as gold, silver, furs, and lumber. They also ran across such woes as Native Indians. The simulation dealing with the Industrial Revolution allowed students to run freely with their imaginations. They were to pretend that they were workers in a factory. Different topics were to be covered in a journal. Many students just completed the assignments by recording exactly what was factual for the particular topic. A few students, however, became creative by adding an interesting plot line to their diaries. Simulations proved to be well planned teaching methods. They allowed students an escape from the monotony of normal class-work while they still learned all that should have been, if not more.

Kathy SOPHOMORE SYNOPSIS Back in the ancient days of junior high school, we all looked eagerly ahead to high school, especially to our sophomore year. The thought of obtaining our driver's license was undoubtedly the best possible vision in the entire worlds. We knew that we would be able to drive ourselves to school. This meant that we would no longer ha e to face the embarrassment of being dropped off every morning by our mothers. We also knew that our driver's license would give us freedom from our friends hearing all of our embarrassing childhood stories w hich older brothers and sisters constantly tell as they chauffeured us to the movies. While talking to a few god like high schoolers, we discover that our sophomore year would hold yet another of the wonderful status symbols of high school. We found that a Josten's Representative would show up to initiate us to class rings. We could already imagine those gorgeous rings on our hands. The rings would make us more important while giving us a new identity. We were sure life was going to be great. That is until we heard a few- horror stories concerning the dreaded speech class. We were told grim tales of total humiliation that would occur in front of our peers. Past speech students lowered themselves to talk to lowly junior high kids just long enough to fill our souls with a blind terror of this horrible class. Upon entering our sophomore year, a year full of pain and pleasure, we discovered that the world did not stop when we obtained our driver's license, received our class rings or gave our first speech. After the year was over, despite the ups and dow-ns, we were able to say, things weren't all that bad.

The student governing body, known as Liaison Board, combined its efforts with those students enrolled in the fairly new Radio and Television Communications Class. The original idea was suggested by Liaison Board. They thought that using students as disk jockeys would provide an added interest wnich would possibly draw more participants. Money also entered into the idea. A great deal of money was saved when compared to the price that a professional disc jockey would have charged. The Radio and T.V. Class agreed to the idea. The dance was divided into two minute shifts with two people per shift. The week before the dance, students made tapes of the songs which would be used. Lights were obtained by Gary Wuethrich and Jon Deininger. Jim Bregenzer s equipment, including mixing board and speakers, was used. Radio and T.V. supplied the cassette decks. The speakers were set up on the cat walk in the M-Room. Due to the inexperience of the student D.J.'s, nervousness was apparent at times. A wide variety of music was played, resulting in unenthusiastic selections at times. The only technical probfem encountered dealt with the failure of one tape deck during the dance. Although the dance did not run perfectly, there were many positive points. Students were given a chance to win the admiration of their peers by performing as D.J.'s. Not only were they shown off in the lime light, but the student enrolled in the class also gained valuable experience. Liaison Board created the idea with Radio and T.V. carrying out tne plans. Never before had a class and an extracurricular group joined together to put on a dance. Updike. Jeff Vance, Keith Vickerman. Robert Villacrez. Vanessa Wagnoss, Bryan Weckeriy, Cindy Weiss.

Either the student are desperately trying to avoid a dreary study hall, or they really need the guidance of Mr. Duit. No matter what the reason, Mr. Duit's office becomes a second home to all seniors in despair. Mr. Duit is naturally a family man, but around the college deadline dates he almost acquires more family than he can handle. It is not an unusual sight to see the line of students from his office stretch way out into the hall. His adopted family consists of a variety of students. They range from those who wish to decide their future to those who want to discuss their past. Amazing, the incredible man has the ability to look for three things on his cluttered desk, handle four questions about scheduling and talk on the phone all at the same time. While this may be pulling the truth just a little, Mr. Duit does have an amazing amount of calmness when dealing with hyper students. Contrary to popular belief, Mr. Duit office, the seniors' second home, has not been furnished with rejects of the Salvation Army. The ratty old green chair has graced his office since 1940 when it was donated to him as a gift . The brown and orange ensemble consisting of two chair and an unstable stool came directly form his own living room. His office may not be the most luxurious place around, but to many seniors, it provides the very best second home anyone could ask for. An object in his office has raised many questions over the years. The object is the armadillo who reigns from his perch on the top shelf. Clyde the friendly armadillo has added personality to the office since 1975. Placed in the position of honor over a decade ago, Clyde has never been moved from the room. Mr. Duit performs a job that few people could handle. He opens up his office and hi heart to every senior, allowing them a second home at MHS. Michael Holmes Maryann Huber Leah Hunt Marie N.

Lance Sathoff and Joe Rufer march in on T.R. Holyoke Reid as the band plays Pomp and Circumstance. Father Thomas Campion expresses the idea that what achievements each individual has accomplished, now must go forth and expand to help others. Nominated and voted on by the senior class, the class moto hung behind the graduates on T.R. Holyoke Field. Senior class president, Ann Young, welcomes the crowd of relatives, friends and family members to the 1986 Baccalaureate procedures. SUCCESS WITHIN INDIVIDUAL Gathering on T. R. Holyoke Field on the 25th of May, graduating seniors, relatives, and members of the Monroe Community held Baccalaureate-Commencement exercises. The 206 seniors, dressed in red and gray, listened as the Reverend David Hunt gave the prayer of invocation. Then Father Campion told the students to take the knowledge they achieved and add it to their own desire, integrity, and enthusiasm in search of success. Following the address, senior president Ann Young welcomed everyone to the ceremonies and commented on their new challenges. Vice-president Tiffany Hartwig reflected on self-scheduling, the sophomore float which was too tall for the garage in which it was built, and all of the academic, athletic, and community services achieved in the past four years. Hartwig stated that True success is within each individual . Mr. Munro, superintendent of schools presented the class of 1986. Then, Mr. Bud Pilz, school board president, handed out diplomas and congratulated the students. Ann Young led the class in turning the tassels and Reverend Hunt gave the Benediction before the students recessed with mixed emotions about their thirteen years of required schooling. Pam Salzwedel is congratulated by school board president, Mr Bud Pilz as she receives her diploma. The 206 members of the graduating class of 1986 stand as superintendent of schools, Mr. Munro presents the class. Giving a congratulations hug, Caity Morrell expresses a feeling shared by all seniors. 1986 CITIZENSHIP AWARDS: Michele Henrichs, Mr. Sathoff, Brian Masshardt.
