Niles High School - Tattler Yearbook (Niles, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 240 of the 1989 volume:

The end of the eighties has finally arrived at riiles High School. For the seniors this means the end of our long high school careers. How- ever, the eighties has meant a lot to all of us. Historians will remember the eighties as a de- cade dominated by Ronald Reagan and the beginning of frequent space travel. However, students at riiles High School will most likely remember the eighties as the decade in which we grew up. We will remember our personal struggles and triumphs as well as the life long friends we have all made at Miles. We hope that The End of the Eighties will enable you to remember and charish 1989, the last year of the eighties at Miles High school.

While 24 year-old pop star George Michael (1) was selling 36 million records worldwide. Prince Andrew and his wife, the former Sa- rah Ferguson (2), gave birth to Beatrice Elizabeth Mary on lucky 8-8-88. The controver- sial movie The Last Temp- tation of Christ (3) was re- leased in 1988, as Debbie Gibson (4), teenaged pop- sensation celebrated her 18th birthday. Discovery (5), the first space shuttle since the Challenger, put America back in space, and Mikhail Gorbachev (6) visited Mew York City, but left early to re- turn to earthquake stricken Armenia. The vocal group Hew Edition (7) basked in new found success while Gretchen Carlson (8) was chosen as Miss America for 1988-89. Olympic swimmer (9) Janet Evans, 17, won three gold medals in Seoul, Korea. A rowdy new group, Guns-M-Roses (10) hit the rock scene, winning MTV ' s Best Mew Artist in 1988. In a presidential campaign laden with mud-slinging and name calling, George Bush and Dan Quayle (11), proved vic- torious over Michael Dukakis and Lloyd Bentsen (14) on Election Day ' 88. Bruce Springsteen ' s marriage broke up in 1988 (12), as did the ' rocky marriage of heavyweight champion of the world Mike Tyson, who ' s wife, actress Robin Givens filed assault and battery charges against the fighter (13). And finally, thrilling the world with her flashy outfits and long painted fingernails, Florence Griffith Joyner (15), won three gold medais and one silver in the Olympic games. Page 4.

On the average, a typical senior will spend $1,300.00 during the course of his senior year. (1) The first major expense of the year is the senior pictures. The estimated cost is around $300.00 and this doesn ' t include all the new clothes seniors buy. (2) Daily ex- penses can be very costly also. Yearly, students will spend approxi- mately $225.00 at restaurants such as McDonald ' s. (3) Weekend enter- tainment can also be very expen- sive. If you plan on going to a movie be prepared to pay at least $5.00 just for a ticket. (4) Another ex- pense is that of the yearbook. The Tattler costs $20.00. However, if you ' re a procrastinator it will cost $23.00. (5) For those seniors who seek higher education, application fees for college are between $15.00-$25.00 per application. (6) Spring break, that fun filled week of sun and fun, usually requires lots of sun tan lotion and about $300.00-$500.00. (7) The next ex- pense after you get your tan is Prom. For that one special night it will cost each person about $150.00. (8) Finally, when June ar- rives the seniors have their last high school expense. Graduation generally runs between $90.00- $150.00 for caps, gown, announce- ments etc. . . It is obvious that seniors spend a lot of money dur- ing their senior year in 1989. How- ever, when our kids are in school it w probably cost a whole lot more. 14 Sahar Abdullah Neva Adams Theresa Adams Ulonda Adams William Alford Robert Alsup Edward Andersen Robert Antes Linda Askren Stephen Jeffrey Aykroyd Elmer Bl Most Intelligent: Theresa Adams and Jon Un derly â– i K 1 Todd Bridges Kimberly Bromley Dawn Burger Mark Burger Mellody Bybee Tricia Chapman Matthew Childs Julie Clark Melissa Cluckey Scott Aaron Coffel Angela Coleman Shelly Conner Cutest Couple: Susanne VanOrman and Tyler Havens Carrie Cooper David Couch Michael Coultas Kelley Crabtree Most Unusual Laugh: Marci Lewandowski and Scott Saunders Class Clown: Mike Dunnuck and Debbie Palmer Kathleen Crawford Maria Daly Richard Daly Richard Davids Ty Davies Gregory Dawson Caria DeCraene Rod Dellinger Karyn Dealing Stephanie Dittmar Kiml5crly Dixon Melody Donleve Michael Dunnuck Clarence Eastman Karia Eaves Melanie Ellis Angela Evans Shaw n Everett Carrie Everman Kimberly Terry Josephine Fields Martin Flanigan Brandy Fryatt Brent Fuller Kimberly Fuller Gregory Gaynor Lori Gentry Sarah Gibson Erin Gillespie Vicki Grant C.

Tliey have the confidence of an upperciassman with- out the worries of a senior. Most jun- iors haven ' t even thought seriously about college. 1 want to go to college but, I have no idea where 1 would like to go, said junior Sonja Willis. By the junior year, juniors start to feel more responsible and mature. Susan De- Vall said, Now that I am an upper- classman, I ' m more concerned with my studies because I want to get into a good college. When I was an under- classman 1 really didn ' t care that much. When several juniors were asked if they could change their first three years of high school, most said they would try to get better grades. As juniors look back upon their years in high school they recall many good times. Julian Smith ' s most memora- ble moment was ending the two year football losing streak. Tm glad 1 have one more year in which to prove our abilities and restore the winning ways of the Fiiles football tradition, said Julian Smith.

' 89 Sand, Snow, Sun and Fun were all adjec- tives of this year ' s Spring Breai . Many stu- dents took off for the beaches of Florida while others hit the slopes of Colorado. There were also many who stayed in good ole ' riiles. Senior Kelly Wilson was one of those and said, 1 slept a lot and 1 didn ' t do much because practically all of Hiles was gone. Clearwater, Daytona, Coco Beach, Tampa and West Palm Beach were the pop- ular spots in Florida. One group took a skiing trip to Breckinridge and some were lucky enough to take a Bahaman Cruise. Juniors Lori Weaver and Becca Grayson stayed in the same Motel as the New York Yankees and said, It was really exciting and we can ' t wait to see them on TV. Sen- ior Tom Reed said, Spring Break was the highlight of the year for me and 1 think everyone else who went to Clearwater. It was great to be with all of my closest friends and not worry about what time to be home. There are only two words to de- scribe it — JUST GREAT!!

School can be fun. After all, where can friends spend 7 hours togeth- er free of charge? Daily life at MUS may seem monotonous, but if you think about it, you ' ve had many good times within the con- fines of this educational institution. (1) John Taylor, Chris Williams, Tom Reed, and Steve Ray had a great time showing some leg to help the pom pon squad raise money. Jun- ior Alex Quick, not pictured, raised the most money. (2) Basketball games were more fun with the newly founded Wanko fan club. (3) Scott Furucker, and many others, enjoyed the fun of athletics through Miles ' intramural program.

Homecoming ' 88 Stohrer and Reed crowned royalty during halftime Homecoming 1988 was held the week of Octo- ber 3-7, sooner than previous years. Being short of time didn ' t stop the seniors, juniors and S.A.D.D. members who ail created floats for the homecoming parade. The senior float won first place for the third year in a row, followed by the junior float in second place and S.A.D.D. in third. The football game was very exciting as the Vikes went into the fourth quarter with a 13-13 tie. It looked as if they would pull off their first victory of the season, but the Vikes once again fell to defeat, 19-13. The half-time festivities began with a perfor- mance by the Niles Marching Band, which was followed by the crowning of our homecoming royalty. All the contestants had the jitters and not just because of the cold weather. Apparently the announcer had the jitters as well, when he announced the king and queen before the first runners-up. Everything was cleared up as Char- lotte Stohrer and Tom Reed were crowned king and queen. Page 66 (1 ) Homecoming King and Queen Tom Reed and Cliarlotte Stotirer.

The teams were divided into three leagues, the ABA, CBA. and riBA. The winners of these leagues were Troys Boys, Team Air, and Cash Money re- spectively. The overall winner of the Intramural program was the team Cash Money which consist- ed of Johnny White, John Taylor, Moe Miller, Corey Rogers, Scott Zavitz, Greg Ort. and Mike Parks. After Cash Money won the playoffs they were al- lowed to play the Faculty in front of the school. There, Cash Money soundly defeated the Faculty by a score of 69-47.

Basketball Homecoming Jackson and Zavitz crowned Basketball Homecoming 1989 brought many new ac- tivities to the students at riHS, Class competition was a big success, along with dress-up days for each day of the week. There was also a lunch-time contest among the classes as well. Monday was Class Color Day, where each class had a designated color to wear. Lunch competition was the Banana Creme Pie Eating contest. Tuesday was Lookin ' Good Day and the Marshmallow Scarf competition. The object was to see who could stuff the most marshallows in his mouth at one time without chewing or swallowing. Wednesday was Beach Day and a basketball player auction was held during both lunches. The varsity team and cheerleaders were auctioned off to the high- est bidders and in return were their buyers slave for one day. Thursday was inside Out Day, along with the Slam-a-Coke contest. Then the traditional Blue and Gold Day was Friday, which also brought many activi- ties. A pep rally was held sixth hour to get everyone fired up for the game against the Portage Northern Huskies. There was a toilet paper race, a shoes in a pile race and a Tugof-war between the four classes, which the Juniors emerged victorious. The competition between the classes was close. In each competition, points were given. At the end of the week, the seniors were on top, although, the sopho- mores won the hall competition. During half-time of the Vikes 53-42 defeat over the Huskies, Scott Zavitz and Kellie Jackson were crowned King and Queen. First runners-up were Jen- ifer Vales and Bob Antos. Second runners-up were Angelecque McLaughlin and Buddy Farr. Third run- ners-up were tSristi Malooley and Mike Baker. Junior attendants were Becky Frantz and Julian Smith. Soph- omore attendants were Magda Ortiz and Chris Bridges. Freshmen attendants were Kelly Shelton and Mitt Drew. Something else new to Miles this year was the Home- coming Dance. Unlike other years, this years dance was held on a Saturday at the Four Flags Hotel. Co- chairmen were Shelly Conner and f athy Crawford. Coordinator of Student Affairs Leonard Smith said, The kids were dre ssed nice; they were well man- nered and the dance was a huge success. Homecom- ing 1989 proved to be one of the best in many years and a good lime was had by all. 1 le 72 (2 ioi 72 ing and Queen: Scott Zavitz and f ellie Jackson, cniors are recognized with their parents on Sen- Iht. iH ' s: r page 73 (7 r r5( runners-up Jenifer Vales and Bob Antos.

Qina Kujawa, a Brandywine senior was chosen as Miss riiles for 1989. Fiiles senior Chariotte Stohrer was also a finalist, and senior Car- rie Cooper, a semi-finalist. Other Miles par- ticipants were Ulonda Adams, Carla De- Craene, and Tracie Lundy. ' Being first runner-up to Miss niles includes a few re- sponsibilities. 1 will be in numerous pa- rades around the area. Since 1 have been crowned first runner-up, 1 have met some of the other queens and their courts. It is fun to be around these different people and learn about things that they enjoy to do, said first runner-up Erica Webber.

This years song Ail of My Love provided the air of romance for the emerald and silver Century Center. During the prom, seniors Su- sanne Van Orman and Tyler Havens were voted Queen and King for 1989. Susanne said, It was a really special way to cap off my senior year. We had a really great time . There were a few changes to this year ' s prom. Students were given an opportunity to vote for music choices, and it was decided that a Disc jockey would provide the music. Also, instead of the usual paper admission ticket, metal key chains engraved with all the prom data were distributed. Students also received glasses vAth twisted stems and the prom song inscribed. This was the first prom I ' ve ever gone to. it was a fun experience to be so dressed up. I ' ve never gone to all that trouble before, said Kim Bromley, a senior. (1) The Class of 1989.

From academics to athletics, to friendly smiles and school spirit, this class was defi- nitely one of a kind. As the 1989 school year progressed, the Class of ' 89 hung together, win- ning academic excellence awards, state athletic honors, and almost always winning the class competitions. After thir- teen years of being together, all 238 members of the Class of ' 89 left riiles High School to hit the real world. Graduation was held June 6, in the high school foot- ball field, under sunny skies and warm breezes. The ceremony was highlighted by student speakers Kristi Malooley, Andy Squint, and Tom Reed. Senior class president Jenifer Vales gave a special diploma in honor of Lori Myers, a member of the Class of ' 89 who passed away in 1986. The evening was capped off with the presentation of diplo- mas, the tassel ceremony, and the releasing of over 240 bal- loons. Although many classes claim to be the class with class , the old cliche definitely fits the Class of ' 89 . We will miss you. Seniors. Best of luck. , i K .

Over 20 players from various sports were named to the first, second, and honorable mention All-Conference teams, and some athletes had the high honor of being named to the All-State squads. (1) Senior Dave Couch captured conference, regional and state titles for his perfor- mances in cross country and track. Dave was also chosen as riiles Athlete of the Year for the county competition. (2) Junior Mark Qaynor received All-Conference hon- ors for golf, and was honorable mention for State.

Mead Coach Ernie Becker said. The wrestling team started out OK. We needed to be more confident in our abili- ties and then more aggressive in our wrestlling. The match on January 12 against Kalamazoo Cen- tral and Benton Harbor helped to improve the team ' s attitude tremendously. Carl Qathright, 189 pounds, was a good part of the team. His final record this year was 38-5-1. Me won first place in five tournaments up to the start of January, and was the most valuable wrestler in the Miles tour- ney. Last year Carl made all state, finishing sixth at 185 pounds, and qualified for state this year. The team, though, could have done better by winning those close matches and wrestling with more heart. The wrestlers finished 9-8 in dual matches. They had 13 qualifiers in individual pre-districts and two qualifiers in individual districts. The team came out Team District Champions by beating Loy nor- rix 77-0 and Benton Harbor 41-29. 1) Brent fuller looks anxiously at the match going on. _ 2) Graduating Seniors of the 1989 wrestling team.

Making it to the district finals only to lose in an exciting game to Kalamazoo Central, 53-45, was an emotional experience, said Coach Jim Arnold. The girls had a very successful season and faced stiff competition in the Big Eight conference. Relying on eight seniors this season, they have brought much game experience and desire to excell to our team concept. I ' m very pleased with our overall play. The giris had a great year. They played with much poise and confidence. The giris played great team basketball all season. They really worked hard and I ' m very proud of their accomplishments, riot only are they great dedicated basketball players and good stu- dents in the classroom, but they ' re super young ladies — most of whom I ' ve coached these past five years. We set numerous school records this year, as Jill Greene became the ri.H.S. career leading scorer (875) and season leading free throw shotter (84.5%). Jennifer Klose became the career assist leader (221), career steal leader (208) and career three point scorer (17); Kristi Malooley set the sin- gle game assist record (15). As a team averaged 57.8 points a game. Jill Greene and Jennifer Klose were picked to the All-Conference, team and Jenifer Vales was honorable mention. V - fc V.N A.

As the year pro- gressed, the team became aware of how important team work and discipline are, said Coach Jim Jeschke. Three games resulted in very close vic- tories. Miles defeated Loy Morrix by 2, Kalamazoo Central by 1 in overtime, and Portage Morthem by 2. The team achieved the sixteen victories without mak- ing one three point basket. In 2 years, the J.V. ' s have only lost one home game. The J.V. ' s averaged 40 points per game while the opponents averaged 25.

Defensively, the girls played well throughout the year, yet struggled at times scoring the points. Timothea Clemmer and Lisa Six led the way, yet everyone had an opportunity to contribute as only eight players remained on the roster by seasons end. Although our final record was not outstand- ing, I consider this season to be a great success. The goal of the freshman program is to develop young talent which can help riiles in the oncoming years. The girls can do just that as long as they continue to work hard and dedicate themselves to improving, said Coach Doug Langmeyer. (II Timothea Clemmer hauls down a rebound.

The dual meet season ended with the girls winning six and losing seven, while the boys posted 10 wins and three losses. ' The cross country season was a lot of fun. 1 enjoyed running after school with the rest of the team. Everyone was very supportive of one another. Whenever anyone was tired or down, everyone would help change their mood; even if someone didn ' t have a good run, everyone was always supportive. Coach Leweke is a great coach and is always happy and willing to help anyone with any problems they may have. Being a member of the 1988 cross country team was great fun and 1 met a lot of new people and made many new friends, said Erin Racht. (1) Seniors — Front: Kim hurlbutt.

This years varsity volleyball team went through some changes since last season. With the loss of four seniors and a new head coach, the season ended with a 5-9 record. It was a big change coaching varsity after only one year with the junior varsity team. The hitting is much harder and the game is played at a much quicker pace. Overall, the season was good. We got on an up beat toward the end of the season, only losing to Portage northern and Kalamazoo Cen- tral who were number one and two in the conference, said Coach Chuck Luke. A bright spot was brought in January when the team avenged its loss to Buchanan at the Lake Michigan College tourna- ment. The team did well in conference competition this year. With that and their season record, the ' 89 volleyball team ended the season in fifth place in the conference. Luke takes over varsity team Page 94 (1) Jenny Vales and Jenny Morris wait for the ball.

The team was made of many new girls after most of last year ' s team moved up to varsity. The team had a new coach, Mr. Craig Molitor. Mr. Molitor had no experience coaching a high school volleyball team, but picked up the technique very quickly. This year was a great year for the team. We had a lot of fun and we all worked very hard. All that work paid off when we brought home a trophy from the Lake Michigan College tournament, said Becca Dittmar. The volleyball team shows great promise for the future, and hope to be even better next year after gaining the experience of team play. 96 1 -V • «• ♦ •■■■ ' •■•; ' iV- ' wm 34 I Varsity returns with two wins Even though the varsity football team for 1988 ended the season with a 2-7 record, they improved from the year before. Coming back to the field after 0-9 record is tough, but the Vikes fought hard, coming back with a win against Kalamazoo Central and another win against Portage northern. ' Practice attendance was a major problem with varsity. A lot of the starters were missing practices which was hard on the team as a whole, and brought morale down to a minimum at the start of the season. Mid-way through the season, though, morale went back up as the team got fired up. Travis Beck helped keep up morale by convinc- ing us to hit hard every play. It doesn ' t seem like much, but it worked, said Patrick Farr, offensive guard. Shawn Everett said, ' 1 feel that our team de- served more than two wins, because of the torture we went through in practice. I would like to thank my parents, God, the coaches and the students for sup- porting us during both good and bad times. (1) Jamie Krueger runs the ball during warmup.

The characteristic of good effort on the team ' s part was tmowing their assignments on the field and their concept of the team ' s needs before individual needs helped them a lot in their wins, said Coach Dick Ham. While having no comment of any bad points of the team. Coach Ham said, Once the team showed up for the sea- son, they were too late to develop strength by much, so perhaps pre-season strengthening would have made some difference. ' He also said, We started to Jell ' much better at mid-season when the shifting between Varsity and JV stopped amongst some players. The offense be- came more effective as we discovered our strengths and the defense more stalwort as the players adapted to our changes. Coach Ham has a different phillosphy about football than others. I believe in playing as many kids as possible during a game so they can get as much experi- ence as everyone else during the season, said Coach Dick Ham. (1) Tim Burdue runs the ball downfield.

Late season wins lift frosh to 4-5 The Frosh football team wound up the season with a 4-5 record. After a rough start the Frosh won 4 of the last 6 games. Overall the Vikes outscored their opponents 136 for, to 92 against. The Frosh had three shutouts, with the Benton Harbor game proving to be a crucial one as the Vikes ap- peared to take an insurmount- able lead late in the fourth quar- ter on a TD pass. However, a lineman downfield nullified the play. We believe that the Frosh could have had a much better record if the players would have wanted to. The Freshmen Vikes had several problems — prac- tice attendance, quitting, and at- tentiveness during practice. Much headway was made to make the Freshmen a football class for future Fiiles teams. The Vikes finished the season with 15 eligible players, said Coach Emie Becker. As the ' 88 Fresh- men year ended, so did Assistant Coach Karl Sharkey ' s, as he re- tired ft om coaching after 12 years. IllllWIl inillll II W .mm0 ttL.

Tennis takes third in regional s There were many changes for the 1988 women ' s tennis team. The netters had a team fo 30, the big- gest in recent years. Coach Luke was very happy that there was such an interest this year but he knew he would never be able to coach 30 girls alone. 1 was blessed with two volunteers, Margie Qaynor and Sue Crawford, both experienced play- ers, he said. Coach Luke also said, This year ' s team played up to their potential and left little to be desired from a team at this stage of development; with only three seniors, one junior and six sophomores, this team is still in the building stages, next year looks to be an even more suc- cessful one with so many young players improving rapidly.

Fiiies also did well in the non-conference tournaments that they participated in, just missing qualify- ing for state competition only by a few strokes. For us to go to state 1 needed to shoot an 81. 1 shot a 77, but because of a minor technicality on my scorecard, 1 was dis- qualified. Thus, the next player ' s score had to be used, which was an 86 and was a few strokes shy of qualifying for state. Everytime 1 think about it 1 get mad; it was just a freak accident, said senior Alex Smith. We start- ed the season as a team and we ended the season as a team. We are proud of what we accomplished, said Coach Greg Qunder. In- dividually riiles did extremely well. Junior Mark Qaynor qualified for state by placing second in the regionals and was named to the All-State team as Honorable Mention. Senior Ty Krieger won the Roy Brawley Award (Out- standing Senior Golfer). Ty, Mark and Alex Smith were all selected to the Big Eight all- conference team.

The varsity soccer team was able to play together as a team for the first time in the past few years. Our great defense kept our opponent ' s score low, while our sometimes unpredictable of- fense was able to rack up the points, riadim Bibi, head coach, said. Soccer is not a very popular sport at niles. Thus, there are no ft-eshman or j.v. teams to feed a strong varsi- ty. The Vikes were often out- classed when they went up against the Kalamazoo area power houses. Mr. Bibi also said that the soccer team would have had a very different year if they would have played consis- tently throughout the season. The soccer team started the season with a good attitude. Af- ter a string of shutouts early in the season moral was high and they had a good chance to do very well. We are very pleased with the support we received from the local businesses such as Timberlou, as well as fi-om the school, Coach Bibi said. Three players, Mike Stewart, Bob Antos, and Tyler Havens, were selected to the All-Conference team. 1) Bob Antos moves the ball down field. 2) David Jacobs feels so lonesome. 3) Graduating Seniors; FROnT ROW: Bob Antos, Tyler Havens, Eddie Sitar, Andy Squint.

Miles was a young team, having only two seniors on the squad. There was five juniors, three sophomores, and one freshman making up the rest of the team. ' It took a long time for the team to learn the things needed to post wins, but towards the season things began to come together with Piiles winning four out of their last five games, said Coach Magrane. The guys had some very exciting games against Holland, St. Joseph and an overtime loss to Loy riorrix. The season ended on a positive note with a Senior night and a Homecoming win against Portage Piorthem. With a lot of hard work and dedication this group could be off to bigger and better things next year! said Coach Bud Magrane. (1) Camel I Campbell goes up for two.

Afler four of the sophomores were placed on the varsity it meant we had to rebuild the J.V. team. We did that by adding one fi-eshman and one junior to the team. We struggled through the season and ended up with a record of 9 vAns and 11 losses. 1 think the players learned a lot about basketball this year and will help build a winning varsity team next year, said Coach Lennie Smith. Jason Brady said It was a new experience coming up from the junior high and playing on J.V. We had fun, but 1 think we should have won more games. Freshmen spark hope for the future This year ' s freshmen basketball team really came together early in the season as a team. We were very competitive, winning some close, hard-fought games. Our scoring balance was a positive fac- tor, plus a winning attitude, coupled with hard work helped us to post 14-6 record. These kids are winners. They play hard and do the things it takes to win, said Coach Jim Arnold. I ' m very pleased with our improvement this season and overall team play. It took a total team effort to achieve the success we had from a group of dedicated players. They should have a very promising future, he continued. (1) Jonny tloskins brings the ball up the court.

Thanks to the support of the freshmen and j.v. cheerleading squads and a good crowd of riiles stu- dents and fans, the varsity cheerlead- ers were able to bring home the Grand Champion Trophy from the Berrien County Fair Cheerleading competition for the second year in a row. All three squads went to camp in August at Western Michigan Universi- ty, where the girls learned new cheers and chants and were able to improve their cheerleading skilis before going home. We had two su cessful fund- raising campaigns this ir — can- dystick sales and workintj le Haunt- ed House. The girls raise $1,000 working the Haunted House a. had a lot of fun doing it. All funds raised this year went towards the purchase of new uniforms, said Faith Cocia, 112 coach. The girls have worked hard all year in order to provide the best support and enthusiasm for all ath- letes here at MHS. That can be a tough job when teams are on their losing streaks, but then, we know that is when support is needed the most.

Inexperience, low num- bers and the failure of several defending lettermen to come out, crippled our efforts to win dual meets, he said. Our strong distance corps, led by senior Dave Couch (school record holder and state finalist, as well as double conference champ) and Brad Harbaugh spurred us to good results in multi-school meets. The foundation for a good young sprint contingint was begun this year, pro- viding my runners return next season. The field events, while thin in numbers, were well manned by Derek Fiugent, Mike Leavitt, and Kelly Murphy, Coach Cybulskis commented. (1 Ted Potts giving it his all.

The overall record was 14-12. ' It was an up and down season for the team, said Coach Julie Byrnes, as we defeated some good teams, but also lost to some good teams. The Miles team also governed individual honors for Jennifer Klose and Kellie Jackson, who were selected to the All-Conference team. Jenifer Vales received honor- able mention. We had a lot of experience in our starting line up, with six seniors, who had a combined total of 21 seasons under their belts.

The season was not what we anticipated, but are they ever? We got off to a slow start, came on in the middle but died near the end and we almost made it to State on some good play in the Regionals. The senior mem- bers of the team will be greatly missed and hard to replace next year. However, the 1990 season looks bright with seven returning starters, said Coach Chuck Luke.

As the season progressed, the team became more enthu- siastic and supportive of each other, made more second ef- forts, and gained more confi- dence in their playing ability. Team spirit improved tremen- dously, Coach Wright com- mented. Besides seniors Steve Francis, Rick Freeman, Brian Meide, and Tom Reed, the team was led by all-confer- ence pick Chad Hill, and jun- iors Kevin Leddin, Jason Rohlfs, Paul Wilkens, and James Becker. Francis, Led- din, and Rohlfs were honor- able mention all-conference. â– i v V- CAk. .w _ j«fc ' vt . (1) Kenny Lee, Camell Campbell, Scott Gourlay, and Pooh Bear Brawley pose for the picture.

J.V. ends great season at 18-6 The JV Baseball team, coached by Richard VanDalsen, batted up a great season this year, averaging an eight run lead in all of their games. The JV ended with an over- all record of 18-6 and a conference record of 11-3. Mr. VanDalsen said, This was the strongest hitting team both for average, .383 for the year, and home runs, 10, that we ever had. We averaged over 11 runs total per game. Though at times we lacked intensity, possibly because of some weak competi- tion, this was a satisfying and suc- cessful season and for the most part the players were enjoyable to work with. Brandon Chapman led the team w ith 38 hits, 37 runs, and a .521 batting average, Todd Pawielski led the team with 33 RBIs and 14 extra base hits, and Marc Fletcher was the ace pitcher with a 7-0 record and a 1.50 eamed run average, as well as a .500 batting average. 124 VARSITY WRESTLinO rront Row: Aaron Beckwith, Chris Kronewit- ter, Todd Bridges, Scott Gutierrez.

Most language clubs only re- quire that members have been or are currently enrolled in the partic- ular language. The Latin Club, sponsored by Mr. Ed Mihelich, has the motto, convocation ani- morum , which means the meeting of the minds. As members, stu- dents become aware and are ex- posed to early Greek literature. Members also experienced a Ro- man Banquet, and traveled to Chi- cago to visit the Field Museum of natural History for a better under- standing of the early Latins, Mr. Mihelich said. The Spanish Club, advised by Mrs. Pat VanDalsen, is a club designed for Spanish students to leam more about the Spanish culture. The club took a trip to Chicago to visit a museum that fea- tured Spanish artists. We raised money through candy sales, said Mrs. VanDalsen. The German Club, advised by Miss Betsy Hudson, also went to Chicago. We ate at the Berghoff — a famous German res- taurant. We visited the museum and attended a German play. We also sang German Christmas car- ols, said Miss Hudson. President Heather Klare said of the French Club, We sold and baked french cookies and sold suckers to fund our trip to Chicago. We went to the Museum and also ate at the Bor- deaux, a French restaurant. Lisa Keyes.

They work together to help the student body get in- volved in activities. To become a member of the Student Council, students must fill out a petition and then be voted in by class- mates or appointed by the Stu- dent Council officers and advi- sor, Mr. Smith. Some activities the Student Council was in- volved in include homecoming, candy counter, school dances, student exchange, and the intra- mural sports program. Some ac- tivities the Student Council is in- volved in outside of school include the March of Dimes Breadlift, The Student Leader- ship Forum, and tutoring. Stu- dent Council has representatives at the School Board and city council meetings and also ath- letic board of control. President Kristi Malooley said, I was very happy with how successful bas- ketball homecoming week was. For the first time in many years we were able to sponsor a home- coming dance which turned out to be exciting and fun for those who attended. Student Council was also able to help register riMS students to vote for the mill- age in March. not necessarily the news The Viking Journal is the school newspa- per published each month by the Journal- ism I, II, 111 students. To be a member of the Journalism class a student must have above average grades in English, and good vmting skills. The paper covers many sub- jects in the areas of news, sports, features and an editorial page, and also the favorite by many — classified ads. This was my third year in Journalism and I found being editor-in-chief a hard job. 1 have enjoyed being on the Viking Journal Staff and en- courage students interested in Journalism to get involved, said Kathy Crawford. Viking Journal adviser Miss Holdship said, The most difficult thing about producing a school newspaper is publishing news of interest in a timely fashion. 1 was proud of my staff, especially all my editors for their hard work in meeting deadlines.

Some of the fund raisers DECA did this year was raised one-hundred dollars to buy presents for ill children in Pawating Hospital. They have sold candy bars, suckers, Easter cookies, and sponsored a data match. This years state finalists were Heidi John- son, Darre n Morris, Gregg Bowman, Michelle Wetzel, Kim Fierick, and Scott Sedam. Darren was in the top 10 finalist in hotel and motel manage- ment. Kim won third place in a role play, involving apparrel and accesso- ries. Heidi Johnson said, DECA has changed my life. It is a very rewarding club, it builds self-esteem, friend- ships, confidence, and your ability to communicate with others. Mrs. Vaughn is the best advisor anybody could ever have.

Tlie club is made up of eleven st udents who worked on a project to propose and defend a name for the new space shuttle being built to replace the Challenger. riASA sponsored the contest-nationwide for ele- mentary and secondary schools. We pro- posed the name Aurora after an Antartic Re- search Vessel active at the turn of the century, said Mr. Benson. However, our name was not selected into the final group.

A Marching and Pep Bands The niles Senior High School Varsi- ty Band performs for ma ny events throughout the school year. The season kicks off for the Marching Band with a fun but strenuous week of band camp in August, in prepara- tion for the up-coming football sea- son ' s half-time shows. The culmi- nation of the fall marching season is the District 6 Marching Band Fes- tival, where as many as 20 areas high school bands perform in front of 3 judges and are given ratings. This year they received a Division I rating, making all the hard work worthwhile. Another separate performing group is the Pep Band, 50-60 students, more than any other band in our area. Our Pep Band performs at all home basketball games, and pep assemblies. The uniqueness of band is the family atmosphere and the spirit of togetherness, devel- oped over four years. We live to- gether, laugh together, cry togeth- er, and spend many long hours together. Those memories will stay with us forever! Thank you Mr. Working and Mr. Heemer!

Of the seventy members, eight are selected by audition to become members of the Symphonic Choir. The Concert Choir sings at the Southwestern Musical Vocal Festi- val held each year at Western Michigan Uni- versity. Hiles had sent a choir to this festival for the last nineteen years, said Mr. Mam- berger. Mr. Hamberger pushes us really hard, and sometimes we think he is unreasonable, but its only because he wants us to feel the same love and passion for music that he has felt his whole life, and we have to respect him for that. All he really is trying to do is make us feel good and proud about ourselves — and our choirs, said Keeman Buchele, Qirls Choir member.

Counterpoints: One of the best in Michigan ' Counterpoints was established 19 years ago wlien I came to this school, said Director Mr. William liamberger. It is one of the best show choirs in Michigan, and was chosen to represent the state at the forth annual Show Choir Festival held in Pasedena, California last year. We placed seventh in the competition. The Counterpoints make approxi- mately forty appearances each year, and make regular television appearances. The group is com- posed of 14 female vocalists, 15 male vocalists, and 4 instrumental- ists. Being able to make people smile and enjoy themselves is a great feeling. 1 guess that is why I enjoy Counterpoints so much. 1 have also found some really wonderful friends in there, said Angle Evans. Counterpoints is an outlet, said Brad Marbaugh. You get to have fun singing and dancing while standing in the spotlight for a time. This year ' s group is the best, they make the class worthwhile.

Besides beginning with the same letter, and signifying the start of a new year, the month of January and June mean only one thing to MHS students — EXAMS. For the most part, this also means panic. It is a new and scary experience for the freshmen. Mot knowing what to expect, they will stay up all night before exams cram- ming in every word of the chapter. Then there are the seniors who have senioritis all semester and then re- member they are still trying to get accepted at their favorite college. no matter how good your intentions are, almost every- one would agree they wait until the week of exams to begin studying. Sophomore Jimi June Losey said, I don ' t study much but usually get OK grades on them. riot studying is definitely not the answer to success on exams. Just ask senior Laura Paquette who studies about 4 hours a night. She says, It ' s not fun to study but it ' s worth it to me to get good grades. My friends all think I ' m crazy but if 1 didn ' t study 1 wouldn ' t do well in school and this will also prepare me for college. Teachers always say, Make sure and get a good night sleep. That ' s impossible because you ' re too busy wor- rying. Then you go to class, sweat through the exam and then breathe a big sigh of RELIEF!!!!!! Bruce Stewart 1945 1988 Many students had a school setting relationship with Bmce Stewart, a student number, an occasional face in a hallway of hundreds. Mr. Stewart has left an impression of being a warm, kind person. He was often seen giving a slight nod, and a half grin. With the students he was caring and concemed, interested in what was happening in their lives, not just in their classes. Mr. Stewart did not take his father ' s advice when he said for him not to become a teacher. Coming to Niles in the early seventies and arriving at the high school in the early eighties, Mr. Stewart taught for over 20 years. Me enjoyed music and literature, or maybe sailing near his cottage on Mullet Lake. Mr. Stewart was a practical joker with methodical preci- sion. He would always get his victim — never cruel, but always good for a laugh, noble Lewellen spoke of Mr. Stewarts dedication to Texas A M. When the team was playing, Mr. Lewellen would find either his mug missing, or a sticker placed inconspicously but always telling of Mr. Stewarts doing. Determined to go on with life, his death was a brave one. He kept planning for the future. His name can be found in the students hand book, or on other forms, just as if he was still here sticking stickers, giving nods and smiles, and sailing. Bruce Stewart is still here, in our hearts, in our minds, in his sons and in his photographs. He is still here, remembered by all. ( ) 176 Administrators offer best education It is the responsibility of both the central administration, school board, and the sen- ior high administration to make sure that they offer the best possible education for the students and the community of Piiles High School.

(3) Working directly with students and the senior high staff are Leonard Smith, Coor- dinator of Student Affairs, John Mc Qoni- gle, principal, Tom Crocker assistant prin- cipal, Roger flargreaves, assistant principal, and athletic director. The goals of both the central administra- tion, the school board, and the senior high administration is to ensure the financial stability of the district, and to encourage and support the School Improvement team in each of the buildings. 177 Counselors, secretaries, help keep school running smoothly The counselors at Niles High School are an important part of the educational process Working closely with each individual stu- dent on a one to one basis, the counselor prepares a schedule that will help students advance in their future education at Miles and beyond. Each counselor has a unique personality, and all are willing to help any student. New to the staff this year is Ted Potts, who joins the high school staff from the junior high. Long standing mem- bers of the counseling staff are Emily Foster, Carla Brown, and Moble Lewellen. Keeping the school running smoothly throughout the year are the secretaries. From the attendance, front and guidance offices, the secretaries answer phones, calm irate parents, send messages, type, xerox, and work daily with administration, facul- ty, and students. The secretaries are Karen Fellow, front office, Gerry Baker, guidance, Pat Hip- shear front, Nancy Lord, atten- dence, Gail Deibler, guidance. Faith Coda, athletic secretary, and Rhonda Fletcher, front of- fices. COLLEGE RUSH Preparing for college is one of many tasks a senior must accomplish. There are many things to be dealt with when preparing for college. Sen- iors must consider personal needs, fees and grades. When making choices many colleges use the SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) or ACT (American College Testing) scores, and, depending upon these scores, colleges will then evaluate the stu- dents for admission. Applying for financial aid can ease the many burdens of school, but not all students who apply qualify. There are many different scholarships seniors can apply for, such as the Blaske-flill, and several local scholarships which companies and business offer. Usual- ly, the hard work pays off. If not in scholarships, most people qualify for some form of financial aid, which en- ables them to go to college. V8 Faculty makes a difference f 1 C-j © Sherry Barnes, Spanish II, IV.

People meet for class, peo- ple study there, or just plain sneak into a comfortable chair, if they can find one that ' s not taken. Keeping the study at- mosphere going at all times, and always helpful are librarians Emily Egan and nancy Brawl ey.

Yearbook staff wins PICA award second year running Once again, putting together this year ' s Tattler was exciting, tiring, irritating, but fun! Our biggest problem was laci of book sales — kids don ' t understand that this book cost close to $25,000 to produce. The color section alone - $5,000. But my dedicated staff loved t; the streets to sell those ads, and we wei ' e to sell a record $11,000 worth. I ' m i icularly proud of the fact that despite or l use of all my nagging lectures, we did mt le to meet all deadlines and once again u the PICA award for yearbook excellence, ' said Miss Moldship. 226 TATTLER STAFF: Leff row (bottom to top): Shelly Conner.

The End of theSO ' s is symbolic of the end of an impor- tant decade to all Miles students. This years staff had 14 new members, so the six veterans had a lot to do. Everyone was eager to learn and caught on quickly, so production began eariy. Many new features were added, including the Spring BreaK lay-out. Current Events lay-out and special emphasis was placed on the academic excellence at Miles High. When we were chosen as co-editors of the 1989 Tattler last year, we weren ' t sure what to expect having a relatively new staff. We spent three days this summer at Oakland University at a workshop, where we got a lot of new ideas. There were many times when we doubted whether our class would be able to work together. We were especially wor- ried about our advertising editors, Jerry, Ron and Chris, who spent more time fighting and yelling than working on lay-outs. Everyone always knew when Jerry was on the warpath. Whenever we needed cheering up, Ms. Holdship always offered us some of her second hand flowers. All problems aside, everyone always looked forward to 6th hour because it was the biggest gossip hour of the day. Yearbook sales were down tremendously this year, so the staff had to sell many more ads to make up the difference. The staff did an excellent job raising $11,000 through ads, which is more than any oth- er year. Last year, we won the PICA award, an award for meeting all of our deadlines. We definite- ly had a goal to strive for this year. On behalf of the entire Tatt erstaffwe would like to thank our principal Mr. John McQonigle for being open with all our new ideas and also all the teach- ers who put up with all of our interruptions. We ' d also like to thank our Jostens Representative, Mike Rowe, who always got Ms. Holdship off our backs by setting her mind at ease and telling her not to worry, and also everyone at McDonalds Studios. As you close this book you are closing out the 80 ' s, but all you have to do is start on page one to relive the memories. PSTENt Â
