There was an exis- tence of this power in each and every one of us. Harnessing this power by the students and faculty was re fleeted in the 1987-88 school year. But wait! Before we get to the core of this power, let's not forget about the catalysists that surrounded the Niles North Student: for ex ample, the three ”F”‘s; faculty with foresight, a formative family, and friends with fidelity. Faculty not only motivated students, but taught for a purpose and led with foresight [to pre- pare provide for the future]. Another vital catalysist was a family which was formative [helping or involving formation or develop- ment] to the student throughout the school year. And last but not least, were the friends of the student. We were not just talking about acquaintances, but good friends with fidelity [faithful devo- tion to duty; loyalty]. There you have it, the three “F”'s; cataly- sists for the student! Now lets look at the power unleashed. This force of energy channeled through hours of effort, sweat, and sometimes even tears. Did the saying “No Pain. No Gain” mean anything? Cli- che' or no cliche’, this saying meant exactly what it said to the stu- dents during the 1987- 88 school year. Tar- gets were high for stu- dents and so were the Niles North overall achievements. The output of this power was demonstrated for example: The Aca- demic Bowl Team and their “powerful” re cord which placed first out of 44 teams in the state and 16th in the nation, the Math team competed and came out with “brain pow- er” and was 15th out of 120 schools, and The North Star gener- ated” a Medalist rating from Columbia Scho- lastic Press Assoc, and an All Columbian Hon- ors. There were other outputs of power by the students. For all you do. THIS BOD'S FOR YOG!”. Well, now you know about the existence of power at Niles North. To find out more about this power, open this yearbook and really “Unleash the Power! Mary Anne C. Masalihit Allen Kuo Theme Page — 3 At the beginning of the school year, a song was made to describe the first five days of school of the stereotypical North Shore teen- aaer The tune came from the First Twelve Days of nt like this: day of mother new Ben The rest of the student body had a choice of days to pick up their books and I.D.'s. For the third year in a row. the books were moved to the East Cafeteria. The change from the Bookstore to the cafete “On the school, gave to me etton shirt, ond day of mother gave to me two Reeboks and a new Benetton shirt. On the third day of school, my mother gave to me three Guess jeans, two Reeboks. and a new Benetton shirt. On the fourth day of school, my mother gave to me four new Swatches, three Guess jeans, two Reeboks. and a new Benetton shirt. On the fifth day of school, my mother gave to me five Polo shirts, four new Swatches, three Guess jeans, two Ree boks. and a new Benet ton shirt.” Songs were fun. but serious things were also taking place. One of the most important events that hap pened was Freshman Orientation, held on August 26 and 27. The Freshman entered the school, many for the First time, and left knowing their way around the en- tire building. As always, the “Fre- shies went to the B-100 room for a scholastic test and a hearing test in the library. They also picked up their books and school I.D.'s. For the first time. Freshman yearbook pictures were taken during Orien- tation. In past years, they were taken on the same days as Sopho- for stu senior commented “Getting books used to be a rea hassle. We had to wait in line at the bookstore, even longer than it took to return them. I’m glad they changed.” The cafeteria served many pur poses for students aside from eat ing. such as chit-chatting, relax ing. and doing homework. Nobody would be scolded for talking tor loud, while in the library, conver- sation was practically prohibited. “Taking the school bus was a unique experience.” explained Freshman John Passman “On occasions there was a substitute bus driver who was different from the rest. He had WCKG blasting on the radio and was dressed like a teenager. But our usual driver was real quiet and avoided talking to us.” From Orientation to getting books, from eating lunch to riding the bus. another year at Niles North started with positive atti- tudes and new ideas.

Penny loafers, mini skirts, and long hair were created in the past three decades, yet we molded the ideas to fit our modern image. Students did not have to join the football team or the cheerleading squad to show their school spirit. They made a contribution to the school spirit by going to the foot- ball and basketball games and cheering for the Vikings. Home- coming parades and pep rallies were the school s special events to display Viking Spirit. Some stu- Viking and modern fashion pro- moted a special style for the stu- dents at Niles North. PURPLE and WHITE, the dominant emblem of the school spirit was drapped on Viking bodies and the students swaggered proudly with spirit. Joann Prekezes Jenny Ro During the Homecoming Pep Assembly.

It may be the spirit of the innerbeing of the athlete to win and share with the student, teacher, and facalty that made Niles North. To achieve in the after school sports there had to be support for the players. The support that they received was from the cheerleaders, fans, coaches, teachers and most importantly the student body Junior Andera Schnneider comented “Being a cheerleader.

Each factor contri- buted to support the others in their own special way. The school administrators, the first factor, dis- cussed and solved the overhead of the educa tional and financial de cisions concerning the student body, teach ers, and school itself. The second factor, the teachers, combined their love in teaching and their knowledge to build up the students' motivation to learn. Students, the third fac- tor. were molded to their potential by all other factors. They had to be responsible and dedicated in order to truly learn the ac- cepted material. The next factor, the class activities, were de signed to expand and enlighten the students’ potential. Class activi- ties created a bursting appetite for the quest of knowledge. Facili- ties. the fifth factor, capitivated the stu dents’ interest in com puters and musical in- truments as well as wide exposure to the physical facilities as the fitness room and swimming pool Last ly. the final factor, the field trips and special programs were devel oped to broaden the students' horizon in understanding the con troversial issues in drugs and aids as well as taking the outside look in what they want to pursue. These fac- tors worked efficient- ly. only if they were put together as a sys tem. Niles North aca demic system had proven to excel poten tially. waiting to ex plode in the world.

This was the motto seen on the walls of the school throughout the year. Both the school board and the administra- tion worked together to help make Niles North operate. The board members who were elected, de- spite the numerous number of write in votes were newcomer John Lartz, Florence Sutker who served as a board for three and half years and incumbents Saul Weiner and Jonathan Minkus. Early in the school year the school board asked Superintendent Ken- neth Olsen to resign giving no spe- cific reason. John Hinck became the new superintendent. Leaders In Education jo ti0 I The Niles North administration as Mr.Giles stated Is a link and a chain, each person having a re- sponsibility to help make the school operate.” All Niles North directors shared common respon- sibilities. Directors had to make sure each teacher ha a certain number of classes. Thty also had two years to evaluate each teach- er in their department on their Attending athletic events was one respon sibility of directors. Mr Houlihan and Prof Einstein cheer on the Vikings at the foot ball game. classroom and overall perfor- mance. Each director also super vised extracurricular activities within the school. They shared the responsibility of attending both home and away athletic events, concerts, dances, and other activi- ties. Once a week a team meeting was held in which the directors shared information and tried to solve problems in each depart- ment. “The greatest problem, Dr.Schusteff said, “was not every student comes out of the same course with the same knowledge because of different ways of teaching.” The administration’s goal was to prepare students for college and to help them survive in society.

What is it that a makes the Niles North teacher different from any other teacher in Illinois? How do teacher teach their class and what techniques do they use? Commenting on his teaching tech- niques Eugene Kuntz said that ”1 try get the students involved with hands on training to what I may be teaching in class.” Kuntz used a variety of classroom speakers who lectured to his students. He added that he gets his student interest in class by using humor and a positive attitude and treats students as respectable peo- ple. When John Barstow a IIC instructor commented that he relies on his stu- dents to be prepared when they get to his room to seek his help. Help differs from student to student and class to class but Barstow wanted each student to benefit from his help. Eugene Kuntz lectures to his class in a humorus way to get his point across. Marla Hoffman, a substitute teacher, commented that “Students respond better if you have a good attitude. To get group partisipation It's good to go into a classroom expecting the best. She also added If I request a student to calm down and they don't, I send them to their dean. There are days when I'm more tolerant to students behavior than others.

Teachers — 101 WORK, WORK AND A wide variety of academic power from the students was unleashed during the 87-88 school year. All classes displayed some sort of this ability whether it was the hard working Freshmen or the Seniors with seniorites . Academics for students were study habits, home- work. and classes. Of course, ev- eryone’s study habits differed and some students didn't just go to North for classes. How did some students deal with homework and study? Senior Nan- cy Malabanan remarked. If I do my homework in school. I have more free time at home.” The ma- jority of her homework was done in study halls or during her free time. Sometimes she used the li- brary. When I go to the library, I read magazines. I really have no set schedule as far as homework is concerned. Some students did their work at home. The way they did it was more advanced . Ju- nior Kevin Kohn liked to use his computer to write papers and ma- jor projects. It makes the report more presentable.” To him the computer was a great way to type papers but. I’m not a freak in computers. Students didn't attended classes just at Niles North. Students that needed classes at Niles West had regular schedules at North. These teens went to West in the morning and returned in the afternoon. Sen- ior Steve Lin attended A.P.P. Physics at Niles West. I attend A.P.P. Physics at West because there are no teachers at North to teach A.P.P. Physics.” Steve spent half of his morning traveling back and forth from West to North and the other half in class. It’s a pain! Traveling takes up lots of my time. Which school did Steve like better? Niles West, because their administrators and teachers are better. It's an enjoyable exper ience! Another program students used was Oakton Community Col lege. The students that went to O.C.C. were considered the elite because there were very few of them. “Most of the kids, about half of one percent, were Sen- iors. replied Principal Thomas Giles. Students attended O.C.C.for three reasons; Excellerated stu- dents exceeded the curriculum at Niles North; they needed a prereq uisite course to enter an honors or advanced course at North; or Sen- iors missed a credit needed to gra duate. Students that went to O.C.C. went at night or sometimes during their daily schedules. Giles added, They're full time students at North. My preference is that they take courses in the building .... but Oakton does offer a via- ble alternative. Allen Kuo Some students decided not to stick around the whole time at Niles North during the 8788 year. Seniors George Wang and Robert Ortega slowly stroll from the bus that brought them from Niles West to more classes at North. 102 — Academics Let’s see some “real” student power The individual booths in some study halls provided a private place to spread out and do homework Making herself at home Tali Aizenberg is intensly using a dictionary.

Students — 103 B Classroom activities were used to ca- ptivate the students’ interest. Teach ers were the inrtportant presenters of new material and ideas. They used interesting approaches to enrich the class as a whole. In math classes, computers enabled the students to understand the mate- rial better and strengthened their weaknesses. Mr.George Pryjma pro- vided “graphmaster” for his math students. It was easier to under- stand the graphs when Mr. Pryjma programmed them on the comput- er. stated Helen Rachnovich. Films and videos helped to visualize written materials and explain scientific for- mulas. In English literature classes, after the students had studied the book, the teacher presented the the- atrical version in order to reinforce the students’ prospective and differ ent ideas. Science students thought video lectures were helpful for under standing the theories and formulas. Labs and experiments also proved to bring out the students’ attention. The tradition of approaching the class with learning material was still the best method. Homework was one of the the key to the door of knowl- edge for the students. Examinations and quizzes were the frustrating or- deals in every class. Students were encouraged by extra credit which were created to bring out their enthu- siasm. Participation was also a major function of class activities. Teachers tried to motivate class discussions and debates especially in the litera- ture and history classes. Teachers also used other methods to test the students' study habits by asking questions. By drilling questions, the students are forced to understand the material. It is an excellent way to get their attention.” commented Mr. Frank Cardulla. In order for the class to cooperate and respect the teach- ers’ presentation, teachers had to show their love in what they taught. If they enjoyed their subjects, it was easier to unleash their extensive knowledge to the students. With these unique classroom tech- niques and the school's facilities the students were capable of broadening their limits in achieving the knowl- edge. Teachers greatly influenced the students’ anticipation for learn- ing. Classroom activities prepared the students for higher education as well as attracting their excitement. Jenny Ro Art classes brought out the students' cre- ativity and imagination Rachelle Pastrana expresses her talent in her sculpture. 104 — Academics Classroom motivation enlightens students’ potential Students' interests were shown through different activities.

It was at these times that the facilities of Niles North (excluding bathrooms) came in handy. Throughout the years. North has tried to provide places for stu- dents to enhance their skills and tal- ents. Resource Centers and The Indi- vidualized Instructional Center (I.I.C.) enabled students to practice with their skills as well as increase their knowledge. This was accomplished with the help of teachers and other assistants. In recent years, North has tried to expand past the traditional ‘ Math, Science. Social Studies, and Foreign Language departments. For students who were thinking about pursuing a career in Architecture, North offered a wide variety of equip- ment such as drawing boards, a blue print machine, and computers such as the Mac-Cad and the Auto-Cad (Coputer Aided Drafting System) for students. Additions such as practice rooms and the weight cage also gave stu- dents the oppotunities to do things which they normally would not be able to do at home. According to sen- ior Jeff Chalem, “The weight cage is a very convenient place to work out. It's really good for lazy people like me because it is right in school. If we didn't have the weight cage. I'd prob- ably just go straight home after school to watch t.v. and eat . . . Also, the weight cage saves me money. I don’t have to go out and buy a mem bership at some health club because the facilities here are just as good as the ones in the health club. Senior Howard Holowaty found it very convenient to have practice rooms in school because of his busy time schedule. Since I usually have to work or do homework after school. I don’t really have time to Diversity jam on the piano. The only free time I have is in school . . . Going to the practice rooms is a nice break in the school day. It s like being in another world . . But I wish we had bigger practice rooms, better pianos, and some amps. North has even tried to expand its computer facilities by having four computer labs; for math, business, and two open for student use. Each lab was equiped with 32 computers. For some students, the computer room was a place to practice their computer skills, for others, it was a place for recreation. I use the com- puter room all the time ... to work on my home programs, or just to play games. commented senior Mike Cohen. Through the diverse facilities, it was evident that Niles North cared about their students. North provided them with the best possible facilities to en rich their talents and skills.

Special Facilities — 107 To add variety and zest to the average day of a student at Niles North, field trips and special pro- grams were scheduled in several times during the year. Field trips allowed students to see things that were relevant to what they were studying, but to do it in an out of classroom atmosphere. One class which had an “out of school experience” was Physiol- ogy. Early this spring, Mr. Kuntz and his two Physiology classes went to the Gross Anatomy Lab at Oakton Community College. The purpose of the trip was to see real body structures and make clear to the students what they had only seen in their text. We go to the lab to give students a proper ap- preciation of the complexity of the human body and the harmony of its many parts in relation to each other,” commented Mr. Kuntz. When they arrived there, profes sors presented and explained the parts of the body and allowed the students to do minor examina tions by themselves. Early this year, advisor Dennis Grabowski and the yearbook staff attended a convention in Whitewater, Wisconsin, to learn more yearbook production. The class left early in the morning for a day of sessions on the latest in yearbook graphics, design, theme ideas, and development. Going to the conference gave insight to the students on ideas for the Saga 88'. Senior Barrie Goldberg replied, Returning this year gave me an- other chance to learn more about yearbook production and it en- hanced my previous knowledge. Special programs were scheduled this year to inform students of im Vikings On the Go portant, interesting issues. One such program was presented to the freshmen class and was called Discovery.

James Girdley. a dental hy- giene advisor for the Illinois De partment of Public Health, came to school in the fall. Throughout the day, he gave seven presenta- tions about the harmful effects of chewing tobacco. Student Elisa Goldman replied. I think it was a good program because it has be- come a habit among teenagers and they don’t realize how danger- ous it really is. Ms. Lillian Mann was responsible for arranging programs that took place at Niles North. Her expertise gave classroom instruction depth and vitality throughout the year.

He supported his point by telling us about a senior who earned an “al- most perfect grade point average, and had a great class standing. The college he applied to rejected him based on the fact that he wasn't involved in any ex- tra-curricular activities.

Organizations — 127 128 — Organizations Candids — 129 B PTSA The Parent-Teacher Student Association was a club in which parents were provided with a way to participate in their child's education. Throughout the year, the members of the PTSA met each month to discuss school issues. Our goal was to try to enhance education and build a greater communication be- tween parents, students, and faculty, explained Mary Mur- phy. The PTSA not only helped students during their high school career, but attributed to their college as well. Two available scholarships were awarded to graduating seniors who best deserved them for their achievemets during their years at Miles Morth. Throughout the year the PTSA sponsored a variety of educational programs such as having the State Superintendent of Education speak to parents and faculty, stated President Sue Tessler. Money raised for scholarships was obtained through the selling of entertainment books and scholarship cards as well as the selling of refreshments at the football games. I hope that next year more parents will be come involved in the PTSA, remarked Mrs. Sue Tessler 130 — Organizations Student interaction was necessary for a complete view Jordan Kagan offers his opinion concerning community affairs. BAND BOOSTER CLUB The Band Booster Club supported the band financially as well as in spirit. One of their main functions was to distribute and col- lect marching band uniforms at the begin- ning and end of the season. The Band Booster Club helped to financially support trips. The band played in two musical com- petitions in 1987. Many important school as well as community issues were discussed and acted upon by the PTSA Thomas Giles. Sue Tessler. and Shirley Becker look over a new proposal Principal Thomas Giles took time out of his busy schedule to take part in hearing the views of the PTSA. ATHLETIC BOOSTER CLUB The Athletic Booster Club was started to support athletes regardless of their record. The 200 members of the Booster Club consisted mainly of parents who tried to increase school spirit of other parents and students during the sports seasons. We raised money by selling t-shirts, hats, mittens, and work ing the concession stand during home games,” remarked Presi dent Martha Cooley The Booster Club awarded two senior girls and two senior boys a $250.00 scholarship in 1987. The Club sponsered the three award night dinners at the end of each season. The Club was also there to help, if money was available, to supplement summer camps for athletes. When a team made conference, sectional, regional, or state divisions we bought t-shirts for the team members, remarked Mrs. Coo- ley Officers included President Martha Cooley. Treasurer Marge Sikorski. and Secretary Carol Salenger. The Athletic Booster Club met the third Tuesday of each month to discuss future activities. PTSA Booster Club — 131 | 132 — Special Events Iv SPECIAL EVENTS One of the best things about Niles North are the special events and activities avail able to students These range from presentations about aids, to international week, to graduation. Throughout these activities there was a feeling of friend ship and teamwork Even though some of the students didn't see the feelings, they were there. One of the aspects of friend ship is helping others. The ways that the students were helped was through interna tional week and the aids pre sentation International week helped us to recognize, appreciate and understand the different cultures among us This was done through talks, slide shows and dem onstrations The aids presen tat ion helped us to under stand the disease, its conse quences. and our feelings about it. Teamwork means working as a team, not as indivi duals. This was shown to be true by the Auroris dancers, the Theatre performers, the Orchestra, and the Marching and Concert Bands They worked as a team to pra duce something enjoyable The bands, both Concert and Marching, put a lot of hard work and practice into the music and marching We saw and heard them at sporting events and Home coming That was when the hard work paid off. The Theatre performers worked as a team to provide us with something enjoyable to watch. Many hours of re hearsal went into the plays The same goes for the Aur oris dancers. It takes a lot of physical effort and team work to put out their dances Homecoming and Prom showed us that we have a lot of friendship and teamwork by the amount of people that showed up. by the way the floats were decorated, the way the teams played, and the amount of couples that appeared at Prom Also, a lot of effort and planning went into making all of the arrangements. Graduation was the final ceremony of four years of work, friendship, and com mitment. We dreamed of our graduation since our first day as a freshman Those four years will prepare us for a harder life after high school Throughout the school year new friendships formed, re lationships grew stronger, and the teamwork was there Although friendship between the students and faculty wasn't very appar ent. it was there These friendships helped to make the special events and the entire school year more en joy able.

Said the special committee way back in June, October 17 may be far away But we have lots to do for that day. School spirit days we had to choose Hippie, beach bum. and nautical couldn't loose. Purple and white day was the best To cheer on the team was the quest. We re playing Lake forest without any doubts How about the theme ‘‘Sink the Scouts . Sail on to Victory was our dream We knew at the pep rally everyone would scream To see Ed Volkman and the home- coming queen. When the big day came around It was time for the queen to be crowned. Everyone wondered who she would be Chosen as Cindi Blease and her date Seth Novoselsky . 140 — Special Events The tension mounted as the announce ment of the new homecoming queen loomed upon the audience.

Robert Spiro receives a hockey mask because the committee nominates him as the face only a mother can love . Homecoming — 141 The obstacle course showed who was phys- ically fit. Josh Bilow and Tom Sallas race to the finish line. The obstacle course was a way for the fans to show spirit at the pep rally. Candy Fer- stein and her partner fell due to the excite- ment.

The parade was held in the freezing cold Nothing could stop the Viking's bold. Everyone worked hard on thier floats But because of the judging, the Seniors could gloat. The cheerleaders took a ride around town While riding they cheer Hold up your arms if you're sure!' Sandy Llenza wildly tosses up her arm as the musical sounds surrounds her. At the brunch there were smiles From alumni of old Niles. Though October 17 was not a winning date The dance later on was really great.

The show was about a naive teacher named Miss Naive (Irit Levit) who took three stu- dents to Transylvania on a field trip. There they met none other than Dracula (Doug Mytnik) who, taking an earring from Miss Naive, gains control over her mind. Miss Naive and her students are taken to his castle, where Dracula is planning to make Miss Naive his new wife because of her inno- cence. Dracula’s plan was foiled by the hero Nick Necrophiliac (Andrew Levin), who just hap- pened to be in love with Miss Na- ive. Nick ruined Dracula’s plan by sprinkling Glublick (a liquor harm- less to the living but acid-like to the dead) on Dracula's followers. Two of Nick’s helpers drive a wooden stake into Dracula’s heart. Nadia is so thankful and in love with Nick that she marries him Instead of a happy honey- moon, Dracula retuns from the dead, possesses Nadia’s mind, and she then sucks the blood out of Nick. The choreography, scenery, cos- tumes, and props made the pro- duction more outstanding. The choreography was created by Gretchen Glader.

Fall Production — 145 “NOISES OFF” Takes It Off Reading the theater bulletin in Oc- tober. only nine cast members were chosen for the play ‘ Noises Off”. Since there were only nine cast members, they became very close which also made the play easier to work with. ‘‘Noises” ran the weekend of November 10-12. Despite the reviews that “Noises” received, few students saw the play because of a basketball bash and a lack of interest. The play was very complex because it had plots within plots.” stated Kim Berg, “inspite of everything, it was a good experience.” “I thought the play was very funny.” remarked Doug Mytnik. “this par ticular play was a British comedy and it was sometimes hard to un- derstand.” British comedies usual- ly deal more with subtle humor unlike American one liners which hit you immediately.

One thing I liked about my costume was the cape, but I guess I was just meant to wear a cape ... — Doug Mytnik “Once Upon A Matress was the musical chosen for Niles North’s spring play. A take-off on “The Princsess and the Pea, the attendance at the play was surprising and overwhelming, according to Lauren Kurtz, who played one of the Ladies-in Waiting. The play contained three different plots, involving the prince Steven Singer.and the princess Jacki Greenberg. In keeping with the tradition of The Princess and the Pea, the princess was the last of many to pass the unfair test given by the queen Jennifer Berman. This test involved not only a pea.but also a birdcage, spears, and suitcases. “Almost everyone got along really well with everyone else, which helped the over- all production of the play, commented Doug Mytnik in reference to the entire cast. I had a fantastic time working with Edward Mussman and Scott Hirschman. The three of us would try to make each other laugh, even on stage. The subplots in the play were equally amusing and entertaining,according to Joann Prekezes: What I enjoyed most about the play was Scott Hirschman’s miming. He couldn't speak at all because of a curse and the other character had to guess everything he was saying, she re- called. Needless to say. the hard work and long hours paid off, and the play was obviously a great success — not only for those who were in it, but for the audience as well. Elaborate costumes were an important part in making the play a success. Jack!

Theatre — 149 H A New Look Camp Helps Marching Band Students After wearing the same uniforms for more than eight years, the Niles North Marching Vikings de- cided to introduce a new look. Re cently, they replaced their march- ing pants with bermuda shorts. We wore bermuda shorts to grab the audiences' attention”, stated Abe Lee. Although the Marching Band wore boxer shorts for only the first football game, they tried to do something different at every game. Not every difference was visual like the first game. The dif- ferences were mostly musical in- stead of visual. The music consist- ed of pop songs instead of the con- temporary band songs. This year several band students attended a marching band camp at the Uni- versity of Wisconsin, Whitewater, to brush up on some skills. Norio Fujikawa. Jorie Perez. Mary Liz Bartels, and Heather Scheck went to the camp to learn how to be drum majors. Alex Sukoy and Jenny Pellman used the camp op- portunity to improve their percus- sion skills. Philip Weiss went to learn everything there was to know about car leadership skills. For a week these students attend- ed classes, thirteen hours each day. with breaks for lunch and din- ner. Every night there was an en- tertaining show which only al- lowed four to Five hours of sleep a night. Even though we knew we were only getting five hours of sleep, it was the drive that kept us going”, stated Norio Fujikawa. The last day at camp, they had the summer national marching band competition. Three aspects made the marching band more en- joyable in 1987. They included the new style of music that was played, the hard work that was put in by several students at the camp they attended, and the new look with the boxer shorts. Matt Warner totally does away with his band uniform. Two other slide trombone players only do away with their band pants with shorts.

Concert Band is in the middle of ever- ything in which people are striving to be- come better said band member Seth Weiner. Concert band is fun because it enhances your musical ability and you also meet new people.” explained Melissa Alog This year’s concert band consisted of many sophomores which gave this year’s band the needed experience. Band ex- pands peoples musical talents, Sopho- more Seth Weimer expressed. Band also went on yearly tours. Some of the places they have gone to were Atlanta. New Orleans. New York, and this year Or- lando.

Pursuing and pushing the Orches tra through another year was the job of Mr. Arnold Sklar. Senior Daniel Nahmod played the trom- bone for Orchestra. As a brass player, being in Orchestra in addi tion to Band, gives an oppurtunity to play classical music, marches, and other band music. It’s a good experience! Danny practiced sev- eral periods a week. Orchestra re- hersals presented a problem to Danny, It was difficult to prepare to a level of excellence with only one rehersal a week. There were also scheduling problems, be- cause I also had to be in Band. The major part of Orchestra was the string section. It’s a break from studying and really refresh ing! commented Senior Joann Bautista. Joann enjoyed playing the violin but was unenthusiastic about practicing. The Orchestra went on tour with the Band It gave me the oppurtunity to meet new people. It was lots of fun! You should really want to be in Orches- tra and dedicated to it. You have to like playing your instrument. concluded Joann. Under the leadership of Mr. Rob- ert Anderson Choral Ensemble ex- celled in many areas. Work and fun was the ultimate combination. Sophomore Marilyn Friedman, an accompanyment (one who plays piano) for Choral, and Freshman Kelly Murrin in the Tener section both agreed that Chorus was fun. It's great to meet people and fun to get in trouble with Mr. Ander- son. commented Kelly Murrin. Not only did the group improve in their singing capabilities, Choral also enhanced individual abilities. Choral helps me with my piano. I'll never forget the experience.” replied Marilyn.

Asia Day, and American Day were all cele- brated during the week. Senior Alan Winkler commented. It was a great idea because it gave peo- ple an opportunity to learn about other customs other than their own. I especially enjoyed the Peru vian presentation about the Ma Chu Picchu ruins.

Commenting on the situa- tion of athletics at Niles North. Mr. Frank Houlihan Director of Athletics, said, “A mam reason for the low team standings is that there aren't enough new families moving in with a lot of kids, such as in the Northwest suburbs. The high schools in that area are tops in athlet ics. I also feel that there isn’t enough competitive- ness in sports programs be fore high school. When the kids start competing here, they're not ready and it takes them a while to be accustomed to it” There were always hopes for success. Coach Law- rence Genge said that with the high potential of the young runners there should be better seasons to come. The Boys’ Varsity Tennis team also expected a im- proved season. Coach Pat Grant explained, This year we should be highly com- petitive. more so than last year, hopefully taking our conference. There's a lot of experience among our mem- bers. each having at least two years on the Varsity level, and most of them play during the indoor tennis season. Niles North sports teams have been competitive, though the records didn’t show it. But. certain teams have had Conference win- ning seasons, such as the 1986 Boys' Basketball and Gymnastics teams.

Though they didn't do as well as they hoped for, the team still went to practice from 3:30 to 6:00 P.M. The players drilled on the basics, studied stradegies, and most important dedicated. As long as I know they're trying. I remain patient and encourage them. , stated Coach Pete Christie The basketball players started out competitive with high spirits. Unfortu- nately. the basketball team went into a slump of losing by four or less points in most of their games and re mained in that slump. With the bad came the good memories. For exam pie. When the team beat Niles West or in a game against Mundelein. Mitch Jacobson was running out on the court for pregame warm ups. and he tripped over a sophomore's foot. He landed on his face and kept on going on all fours. recalled Al Winkler In a different atmosphere, the JV play ers had an exceptional year. With a record of 11 -2. the JV team were able to go to conference with a chance to win the championship. JV team mem ber, Binel Patel stated.

The Freshman A team has a 6 and 12 record. The B team has a 13 and 2 record. According to coach Marsh, the Freshman A team should end up in fifth or sixth place. The B team should be in second place.

TEAM UNITY Was The Key To Their Success Three. Two. One Their twenti- eth victory for the Girls’ Basket- ball had finally come true. They had come a long way in order to achieve their determined goal. With long and vigorous practices everyday, the girls had built their stamina to triumph over their competitors, and nothing was go- ing to stand in their rampage. 'This year's team was probably the second finest group of players ever in this school’s history.” commented Coach Clarence Flor- ence Three important factors led the Varsity Team to a 21-5 victory. The majority of the team were ex- perienced and skillful players. ' We had to set a good example in terms in skills and discipline for Strategic plays were used to lead the team into victory Coach Clarence Florence, and Coach Sue Colantonio huddle the players and discuss new plans. the younger members.'' stated Danica Petrovic. The second fac- tor was their will to succeed. The team had set their goal to place high in conference and worked hard together to make it come true. Team unity was their most important ingredient to success. The team as a whole had a com- mon goal to achieve our potential together. In fact, individual achievement was not as impor- tant as the team.” stated Shari Rozmus. For the Jnnior Varsity and the Freshman Teams, it was time to build their skills and tech- niques. With this experience, they had learned to strengthen their fundamental skills as well as work together. The Girls’ Basketball team had accomplished a great deal this season. Not only they placed second in conference, they experienced and participated in the glory of victory as a whole.

Team improves over course of the year The girls bowling team had made great improvement this past year. At the begining of the season, that started in November, the team had an average of 1100 to 1200 pins knocked down, and at the end of the second week of Fe- buary their average was up to 1700 pins. The team played 15 to 20 games. They played against Fenton, Antioch, Warren and Ma donna High School in Chicago to name a few. The bowling team practiced 3 days a week from 3:30 to 5:30 at Fairlanes Bowl. The most valuable player was Wanda O’Quinn and Susan Struthers Concentration is very important to insure that the ball goes straight down the alley Susan Struthers came up to the line and threw a strike. 186 — Sports was the most improved. Coach Lange added, “Anyone who is in- terested in bowling can join. No experience is necessary, although a physical must be taken to par tieipate.” If someone has a 150 average they could be up for a scholarship.

Bowling — 187 A RACE FOR THE FINISH “It Was The Best Of Times, It Was The Worst Of Times ... it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the ep och of incredulity, it was the sea son of Light, is was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair ... ” Charles Dickens Running through the fields, com- peting to discover who had the best endurance, was the goal of every member of the Cross Coun- try team. An outstanding runner. Junior Kevin Pogany proved him- self to be the best on the team. He was named All-Conference and MVP of the team. Although the team placed sixth in the confer- ence, it was the best season in the past three years. “We did so well this year because of the increase in dedication to the team, com- mented Coach Lawrence Genge. At the Conference Meet, the team had an important win over Anti- och. who they had lost to during the regular season. During the Spring portion of the school year there was a team that was overlooked, Track and Field. Similarities between the two in- volved running and the same coach. The pole vault, high jump, and shot put were also parts of Track and Field. Despite the team’s weak performance, there were outstanding members. Sen ior Eric Fliszar. as a pole vaulter, was named All Conference and placed third in the state competi tion. Senior Troy Klosterman was the MVP of the team. The number of members at the beginning of the season was high er than that at the end. A main cause for the low number at the end of the season was the drop out rate from the team. Coach Genge stated. I'd like to see more kids come out for the team and stick with it. They've got the talent, but don't stay around long enough to let it come out.

In the winter, the team built up their muscles after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the weight room and on Mondays and Wednesdays they practiced at Miles East on the indoor track. When the weather began to get warmer they worked outside. For people who came to practice, we worked well as a team.

DEDICATION The Power of Unity Pride, loyalty, and integrity were emphasized by the team and coaches during the 1987 Football season. Cooperation was a helpful factor when the games did not go as they had hoped. I was really happy to see the team pull togeth- er during such adversity,” com- mented Coach Giambeluca, They did not blame each other for their losses. They did not win every game, yet their friendship remained in tact. A team's skills were a way to fore- tell the outcome of a game. We had outstanding passing, great de- fensive backs, and most impor- tantly a feeling of camaraderie. said Giambeluca. Losing is never easy to handle, but as the weeks went on and the losses kept com- ing. it got a little easier,” stated Seth Novoselsky. Since football is a rough contact sport many injuries can occur. As a result of the injuries, that a few team members suffered, the team failed to reach it's full potential Brett Schlifka, Jeffrey Cohen and James Benjamin were taken out of the game for injuries. Mi chael Dietz twisted his ankle dur ing the game against Mundelein which put more pressure on Ste ven Sand, commented Erik Slowik. I'm willing to take the risk of getting hurt because I love the game. explained Seth Novo- selsky. In conclusion, Giambeluca stated, I am thankful to have such good assistant coaches to work with.

The one thing that we don't lack is confidence.” stated Allen Cepeda. Without confi- dence and friendship our team wouldn't be worth much. To- wards the end of the season, the goal was to learn to be better by handling their losses with the knowledge that they had done their best. Perhaps their cup did not run over with glory from victo- ries. yet the experiences they en- countered left lasting memories. What most Miles North students did not know was that the Fresh- man Football Team had an ex tremely successful season. They finished the season 6-0-1 and went on to become Conference Champs. It was really exciting to win, remarked Mitchel Ruben- stein. That excitement coupled with strong confidence helped the team.

The 1987 varsity team scored the highest at the regional tournament. This is an extraordi nary achievement for such a small team. What made this small team such a success was their drive, determination, and practice. The hard work really paid off for Lee Wolochuck who won state on the pommel horse. Lee Wolochuck wasn’t the only one who went to state. Alan Hirsh and Dror Ze touni joined in the competition. It paid off in a great way for Alan Hirsh who won fifth on rings and went on to become most valuable player for the 1987 season. Not only did Alan Hirsh have a very high number of total points, but he led the team in high spirit. The team wouldn't have been where they were is it weren't for the coaches. Coach Bro and Coach Sokalski were with the team day in and day out. making the team the best they could be. They gave the team advice and pointers and kept their spirits high throughout the season. If the Boys Gymnastics Team can keep their spirits high, and the hard work going, it should be no problem for them to bring Niles North more victories in the future.

Although the Varsity team con- sisted of mainly sophomores, ju niors, and one senior, they man aged to reach their desired place in conference. Because of the lack of freshmen and sophomores. Ju- nior Varsity was forced to forfeit most of their conference matches, yet they played for the experience and the challenge. Varsity players except for captain Darin Aryes and Sonny Gallman were obligat ed to play the Varsity and Junior Varsity matches due to a shortage of golfers. The team worked vigorously ev ery day after school at Glencoe Golf Course. With baskets of golf balls, they practiced putting, chip ping, and driving for about four hours each day. They started practice early in mid-August to prepare themselves for the up coming season. Coach Joe Rusk taught the players the fundamen- tal skills as well as new strategies. This year the team learned from their mistakes which would en- able them to improve and grow skillfully for the next season.'' stated Coach Joe Rusk. Some golfers played competitive- ly and consistently throughout the season. Sonny Gallman placed twelfth out of sixty three golfers in conference. He was nominated as the most valuable player of the Golf team. Captain Darin Aryes. Steve Friedman, and Bill Sikorski also contributed their efforts to make the year successful. I feel that we worked well together as a team, next year with experience under our belts we will compete aggressively and set upon higher goals to achieve. commented Sonny Gallman. Working with limited number of players, they achieved their goals to improve and build their skills in order prepare themselves for the next season. The golf team had their ups and downs with their close matches. At one match we came up short by one hole.

The 1987 Freshman and Sophomore teams had to face such an obstacle. Through a lot of hard work and patience two great teams came into existance. Under the training of coaches Goone, Cress, and So- kalski, the teams learned valuable skills and techniques that will show in the years to come. Prac- tice after practice the teams worked on such events as floor exercise, the pommel horse, the still rings, the horizontal bar. and the parallel bars. William Sikorski was named Most Valuable Player due to his high scores at meets and versitility.

Boys Soccer set out in a new direction. Our defense was our biggest strength this year said Coach William Coulsen. A defense that included goalie Marcello Freitas and all conference selections Walt Al- vendia and Mick Gatzionis. The one key weakness was a scoring offense which seemed to be coming back under the direction of all-state team member Dan Yonan. Yonan this year scored 15 goals and 6 as sists. On the field Dan is a fierce competitor said Walt Alevendia. Yonan was the second person in four years to be named to the all state team It was a great feeling, and I know that I won't have to answer those questions anymore, like are you going to make all-state like your cousin Ferris? says Yonan referring to Ferris Youhanna a member of the 1985 Niles North soccer team. This years team had many wins over teams like Stevenson. Lake Forest. Rolling Meadows, and a tie with St. Josephs.

The minimum number of games played in a sea son was 17, plus tournaments they can enter. Half of the total of 25 games were away and the rest of them were played at home. Mr Coulson has been a soccer coach in the District since 1973 and has coached Girls Soccer since the 80 81 season. The soccer season lasted from February 3rd to May 3rd for ap proximately three and a half months. Unfortunately the stu- dent body does not come out to see the games. 'The attendance is very poor,” said coach Coulson. The Junior Varsity soccer team’s most valuable player was Wendy Allen. The Junior Varsity team played a total of 16 games; half of the games were played away. The team won 8 games, lost 7, and tied once. The games were played at Niles East and West. The student body really didn’t show up for any games. The total number of games the Varsity and Junior Varsity played was 33 and both teams won a total of 25 games. They won more than half. That shows us that the girls soccer team has team effort and spirit. Lori Mangan Keeping the ball away from the opponent was the thought in ail soccer players minds. Mario Kantor focuses her eye on the ball while picking up speed The important thing most soccer players did was to keep the ball away from the opposing team.

The team, coached by Charles Balciulis. finished the sea son with a record of 7 wins and 14 losses. The J.V. squad, coached by Suzanne Colantonio, ended the season with a record of 3 wins and 13 losses. Most valuable J.V. play er, Debbie De Salvo, commented. Encouraging team members helped us continue to work hard. Winning the last three games made our practices and hard ef fort worthwhile. The Freshman team, like the others, was held to gether not only by coach Chris Busch but by the spirit that al ways seemed to be present during games and practices. Varsity member. Lauren Kurtz, remarked. Even though we didn't win as many games as we would have liked to. I'm still happy with the way everyone worked together. The team always stuck together.

This was a season of new begin nings and great accomplishments for the Niles North swim team. Coach Sandstead described the swim team as cooperative, enjoy- able, and hardworking. The sea son was not great due to the num- ber of losses. But individually they were very successful. All the members of the team were impor tant, but the essential participants were Todd Kantorezyk and Eric Salinger. Practices were held everyday after school for two to three hours. They contributed everyday and grew stronger with every practice. Swimmers broke their own re- cords and did better than before. The look on a swimmers face when he had broken his previous record, or achieved what he couldn't achieve before was just as memorable as any victory “ exclaimed Coach Sandstead.

We might not have won first in Conference, but the support and help we gave each other proved that we were winners!'' Having many experienced players return from last year's team was a key to the Girl's Varsity Tennis Team's finishing with a 9-5 record. The team ended its nine week sea son with fourth place in Confer ence. The underclassmen were the nucleus of this year's team, however, the seniors played a dominant role during the season. Co-captains Valerie Weiskirch and Mario Kantor played number one singles and number two sin- gles, respectively. According to Seema Singh. Without the fresh men playing on the Varsity Team, we wouldn't have done as well as we did. They really had a lot of talent. Arlene Valera added. “The team as a whole proved to be successful. As the season went on. we learned to work together, we matured as individuals, and tried to make our team the best it A high point of the season was having M.V.P. Mario Kantor make All Conference. It was the first time in six years that a girl tennis player achieved the honor. Ac- cording to Coach Mark Recker. Mario was a great athlete, had a competitive attitude, and was al ways working to improve her skills. Mario commented. To- wards the end of the season, when I thought I had a chance for All Conference. Coach Recker gave me the confidence I needed to win. The Junior Varsity Team finished their season with a 6-7 1 record. Coach Carl Field stated. Some of the girls on J.V. have the potential to play on the Varsity team next season. Carol Mui recalled one unforgetta ble experience. It was game point. I faulted once, and had to make the next shot. I added too much top spin on the ball, and hit my partner in the rear end!

Moving On With Determination Challenges and difficulties plauged the overall preformance of the Varsity Volleyball Team during their season. Our season really wasn't as good as last year, stated Senior Rhonda Wendt Especially with the loss of our five graduating senior start- ers”. The majority of the Varsity Team consisted of underclass man. These underclassmen lacked a lot varsity playing exper- ience. which also contributed to the teams difficulties. The Varsity Team finished their season with a record of 5-18-1. This record didn't really show their capacity though. People don't seem to realize that we play against very competative schools, such as Evanston (19-2), com- mented Coach Sue Colantonio. This year, Coach Colantonio tried a new game plan rotation in order to improve the team both offen- sively and defensively. The thing that the Varsity Team seemed to lack most of all were fans. We need more support from fans, ” commented Coach Colantonio. Fans motavate the team to do better and try harder. They pick the whole team up and help carry the momentum.” Although there were several stum bling blocks throughout the sea son. these difficulties brought the team closer together. We all be came friends, stated Rhonda Wendt. We worked very well to- gether and had good camarade The Junior Varsity Volleyball Team also had their share of hard times. With a record of 2-22, team members realized that together- ness was essential for victory. “When we didn't play together, the whole team fell apart, but still we worked hard to play well and to keep the team together, com- mented Sophomore Susie Herr.
