The area was often used asa meeting place. Photo by David Stewart The car bumped and rocked over the potholes and pockmarks in the parking lot. The doors hung loosely over their portals, scratched and chipped from years of use. The hall was divided in half by a barrier of plywood covered with black plastic. The students were treated to several aesthetic changes on their arrival on Sept. 3, 1985. Thanks to a gift from the class of ’83, the former Filling the holes Viera os = eyesore of the parking lot was completely refurbished. The temporary partitions in the 100 and 300 halls were lifted to reveal improved classrooms. The old doors were replaced and some new ones were added. All this, plus the science wing constructed under the library last year, gave the campus a new feel of which the student body could be proud. North Garland was the same as it NEVER was.

Some sought high grades, some offices of leadership, others a place on the team, but everyone made some effort to have fun. There were many obstacles in the way, however. The educational laws to which students were just getting accustomed kept them working harder to stay with their extracurricular activities, and there were other limitations. 4 Student Life Only three pep rallies were held during the year, which spurred increased attendance and enthusiasm, and field trips became much less frequent. A few traditional events emerged from the legislation relatively unscathed. The Raider Royalty Ball, Celebrity Ball and the Twirp dance were all held with few imposed limitations. One positive change in the Homecoming festivities was initiated by Principal Linda Drake: the AT THE HAUNTED HOUSE dress rehearsal, junior Jon Sto- kinger tries on an old coat for junior Betsy Wilkins. Over 200 pieces of clothing were collected for the fundraiser. Photo by David Stewart football players made sure that each Mam’selle had a mum. The negative changes made students realize the need to be more creative in planning their social lives, and the positive ones gave some relief, but both had something in common. These were new rules to play by that didn’t seem likely to reverse themselves. Student Life was the same as it NEVER was. IN THE LABOR DAY parade, the La Petites keep in time with the band’s music.

Photo by Lisa Wacker Student Life Divider 5 ieoeea nt Through the humid atmosphere of the crowded coliseum, there was a feeling of anticipation. Suddenly, in a burst of emo- tion, 430 graduates threw their caps into the air, traditionally marking the end of 13 long years of work. Although this was the kind of scene viewed by millions of people at this time of year, there was a difference here. The Class of ’85 had achieved a quality of unity unlike any other class. This unity was demonstrated as valedic- torian Laura Fitzgerald and salutatorian Le Pham presented the final address together. They spoke of their ‘‘everlasting bond held ” together by friendship .... - , af , Fitzgerald said, ‘“Today is not only an ending, but also a beginning.”’ This begin- ning was displayed by the many students who were awarded scholarships at the Awards Ceremony, May 15. Among those awarded was Betty Stringer, who received a scholarship of $250. ‘‘The money helped me a lot. It paid for most of my books. (The scholarship) also really encouraged me,”’ said Stringer. Among the many people recognized were Tim Carpenter and Carson Bell who received certificates for perfect attendance through all four years of high school. Gene Serrell, who received a full four-year schol- arship, was a 1985 Semi-Finalist of the Na- 1‘. oe wt! Unified efforts mark final year of Class tional Achievement Program for Outstand- ing Negro Students. Sixty-five students also won the Presi- dent’s Academic Fitness Award. The cere- mony ended as the 95 honor graduates were recognized. Fitzgerald and Pham passed on a special message from the instructional administra- tor, Mr. Roger Herrington, who said before leaving to work in administration: “Il chal- lenge you to make a difference.” Le Pham thus described the Class of ’85 this way: “We have succeeded as a group and excelled as individuals.” COMBINING THEIR EFFORTS, Laura Fitzgerald and Le Pham encourage the graduates in their final address. As valedictorian and salutatorian respec- tively, their addressing the audience together was a first in the school’s history.

Registration week brought back the reality of school. 8 Student Life Excitement, work fill vacation time On May 31 at 1:59 p.m. and counting down, tension rose as students posed ready to jump from their seats. The final bell rang and the halls were flooded with eager students exiting school and entering summer. To most students, summer meant soak- ing up rays or splashing around in the near- est pool. According to sophomore Jeff Thompson, a “three month party’ was what summer held for him. Vacationing with the family, alone or with friends, was another highlight of sum- | mer that took numerous students every | place imaginable. A few Raiders even trav- elled to other countries. Junior Donna Braun said, ‘For around $2500, visiting, shopping and sightseeing in Munstermai- seld, West Germany, for two months was a real learning experience I'll never forget.”’ Nevertheless, obligations had to be ful- filled and the task of making money robbed some of free summer hours. “Working was all right sometimes but it got in the way of going to parties and out on dates,” said sophomore Wesley Orr. Even though work time may have been a problem, the money made was an appre- ciated aspect. “Il felt working took up too much time because | didn’t get to go on vacation, but I| liked the money because it helped me buy clothes,” said senior Wendi Richardson. Responsibilities toward the end of sum- mer rolled around with band, cheerleader, drill team, volleyball and football practices. This meant early time-consuming hours. Registration and orientation, the week of Aug. 19, also put a clinch on summer ac- tivities. Whether wanted or unwanted, students returned Sept. 3 at 8:15 a.m. when the halls were flooded with students exiting summer and entering school. WITH A LOOK of boredom, senior Marsha Lambert toils away summer hours at work. Lambert worked an average of 40 hours per week at Brooks in Rich- ardson Square Mall, the nearest mall to Garland. LOUNGING on the 2000 year-old Porta Nigra, David Stewart, a junior, scans the quiet scene. Stewart spent eight weeks in West Germany from May through August.

Photo by Doug Foshee LIKE ALL OTHER CANDIDATES Marci Willard rode on a convertible as part of the parade. Photo by Craig Cooper People with lawn chairs and an array of ice chests and cold drinks were spread along the roadside anticipating the arrival of the parade. The sound of bands in the distance grew louder and the crowds began to clap as the 40th annual Labor Day Pa- trade began. “It was hot but I enjoyed being in the parade. It showed a sense of community pride and brought people together,’’ said junior Troy Prestenberg. Also, along the streets David Byrne, lead singer of the rock group Talking Heads, added a surprise to this year’s La- bor Day Parade. He filmed part of the pa- rade for his new movie ‘‘True Stories.” “‘I was very excited, as well as impressed that he chose our town,’ said senior Bryce Boyd. To prepare for another part of the tradi- tional holiday celebration, a two-hour prac- Raiders take part in holiday action tice was not unusual to the contestants of the Jaycee Jubilee Pageant. ‘Sometimes it was very frustrating because in the phys- ical fitness routine we would make up the dance as we went along,’ said junior Rhonda Kirby who witnessed her class- mates Heather Colombo and Marci Willard win first and third runners up respectively. This year North Garland had 11 girls participating in the Jubilee, making up the largest amount of entries. Katherine Kel- ley said, ““My most exciting moment was when | read my poem because | created it and | was very proud of myself.” Besides the pageant, North Garland par- ticipated in the Jaycee carnival. Among the booths set up for fundraising this year was the Senior Class Skeeball booth which senior Doug Goodrich thoroughly enjoyed working.

Homecoming weekend was an entirely eclectic event with Raye-Anne Talton an- nounced as Homecoming Queen. These events began on Oct. 16 when participating organizations decorated the halls to welcome back the exes. ‘‘The halls looked really great. It’s good that we have people who will take the time to make our scnool look its best,’’ said Mike Jesmer. The banner and float competitions were judged by outside officials, including for- mer football coach Steve Baker. The win- ner of the banner competition was the Key MAKING THE MOST OF THE RAIN, Derek Harts- field and Robin Jackson amuse the crowd while having fun. The cheerleaders and Sam’s Posse were soaked after three hours in the rain. Photo by Lisa Wacker Homecoming week survives pouring rain Club and NHS won the float competition. Tradition held that the floats would be pa- raded around the field, but the weather did not permit the student council to show off its plans for the game. The pep rally, the second of two allowed during the year, was packed with exes and students. The constant rain on game night didn’t dampen the spirits of the drenched fans who remained the entire time, though it was a tremendous factor in the game’s result. The Raiders fell to the Colonels, 6-7. ‘They looked like they were swimming out there, but it looked fun,” said Missy Kuz- miak. SILENTLY WATCHING the game, Paul Ridenhour, Paul Phillips and Chad Gregory take a break while the Raiders fall, 6-7, to the South Garland Colonels.

Photo by Lisa Wacker During the water sports, the Varsity cheerleaders and Sam’s Posse were enthu- siastic. ‘They kept the players motivated and the fan’s spirits up,’’ said La Homer Holmes. “Their encouragement helped the game spirit.” Neither the band or the Mam’selles were able to perform in the pre-game show or at halftime. Their traditional can-can routine was cancelled. The week leading up to the Homecom- ing dance was cut short by Fair Day, but decorating plans were carried out anyway. Decorations, floats, banners and a very wet football game added color to all the festivities. a selnn o ita} f For the final touches on the tables, senior Dawn Cornelius helps out other student council members in decorating the cafeteria.

Photo by Lisa Wacker Homecoming Despite the rainy weather and other diffi- culties in holding Homecoming, Oct. 19 was a memorable occasion. The student council, with the theme of Shanghai Breezes, turned the cafeteria into an Oriental setting. ‘It was a lot of hard work and it took up a lot of time and effort, but we feel it turned out well,’’ said sopho- more James Werner. Student council sponsor Diane Onstot took advantage of junior Krista Doster’s father’s trip to the Orient in order to ac- cummulate authentic Oriental decorations for the dance. These included fans, kites, candles, umbrellas, hats, lanterns and printed chopsticks. These decorations proved to be popular souvenirs at the dance. Also, the woodworking students GNRAVELING LANTERN STRINGS, freshman Amy Walter is busy helping the student council decorate for the dance. The oriental decorations were authen- tic.

One of the most patient, sophomore Tara Ventura said, ‘‘! got real excited see- ing all my friends dressed up and smiling.” After the pictures came the dance with its varied music played by a deejay. The official crowning of the Homecoming queen, Raye-Anne Talton, was held before some couples departed to engage in dinner activities. Thinking back on the night’s events, senior Kayla McClosky said, ‘‘I thought it was very well planned, and the decorations were really nice. It was the best dance yet.” AT THE PUNCH BOWL, junior Michelle Britton reads her fortune while her escort Kelly Riley pours a glass of punch. Refreshments were served by stu- dent council members’ mothers.

One activity was a cov- ered wagon train that trav- elled throughout Texas. For another, schools and busin- esses were given a holiday on April 21. “I spent my holi- day sleeping in and taking it easy,” said senior Harold Ross. Not to be left out was the abundance of souveniers. According to the ‘Dallas Morning News,”’ there were 550 products available to the stores just for the Ses- quicentennial. Some of the items included posters of famous Texans, glasses, watches, and the official Sesquicentennial Colt single action .45 caliber gun for only $7,995. Texas was not the only one celebrating a Sesquicen- tennial. Australia also had a 150th anniversary.

NeScOsgn aa Record companies asked to put labels on albums Several rock-and-roll and heavy metal records were criticized for being mind-al- tering and degrading, but in 1985 Americans claimed the right to determine what they could and could not listen to. A controversy began when Senator Paula Haw- kins proclaimed that many rock-and-roll songs _ con- tained ‘‘dirty lyrics.” After rating records was suggested, negative state- ments from rock enthusiasts also arose against the label- ing. “If our music is ‘bad’ in their eyes, their music may be ‘bad’ in our eyes,” said freshman Chris Smith. “It’s not right to dictate a person's personal activi- ties,’’ said senior Rob Roden. Senate hearings were held between congressmen and the artists themselves to confirm First Amendment rights. Despite these hear- ings, Hawkins, backed by protesting parents and pub- lic figures including Presi- dent Reagan, pressured the recording industry into plac- ing ‘‘parental guidance” stickers on records and tapes with explicit lyrics. “| think the whole issue is opinionated,’’ said sopho- more Atlantis Tillman, ‘‘and whether people listen to the music or not is up to the individual.” RE c--L bobs Rocky IV, Back to the Future provide escape, fun Since the beginning of film production with The Great Train Robbery, people have flocked to the theatres. Movies always! have! been geared to what the audience liked. Appealing to teenage au- diences last year, Back to the Future, Rocky IV and White Nights were the most successful. Troy Presten- berg, a junior, explained, ‘‘l enjoyed Back to the Future because | could relate to it.”’ Rocky IV, yet another se- 18 Student Life quel, did well at the box of- fice after drawing sell-out crowds. “It was neat be- cause it was triumphant,”’ said Dana Boyce. About White Nights, Mindy Scoggins explained, “You feel like you’re with Baryshnikov on stage while he’s dancing.” Filling the need to ‘‘get away from it all,’’ movies, a momentary amusement of our minds, made it easier to laugh at ourselves. THERE ARE THOSE who like to save money and rent movies for their VCR’s to see in the privacy of their own homes.

Among favorite prime- were the ‘“‘Cosby Show,” “Family Ties,” ‘“‘Who’s the Boss,’’ and ‘‘Growing Pains.”’ But, some students still liked the nostalgia of the reruns of older shows, like “WKRP” or “‘Little House on the Prairie.” According to a_ small as their favorite. ‘‘It’s so real to life, but it’s funny and lighthearted,”’ said sopho- more Patty Hamilton. ‘‘l think because Bill Cosby was such a funny guy in the first place, he attracted me to the show,” added junior Kelly Keeling. Some people admitted away from homework blues, but “‘Miami Vice’ rated in the top ten for favorite ac- tion show. “‘It has effective style and music,”’ said junior Lori Baker.

When the news got out that a certain band was be- ginning a tour, a special ex- citement started. Bruce Springsteen held one of the big concerts for 1985 at the Cotton Bowl with two sold out shows. An- other popular event for the summer was the traditional Texxas Jam. The Jam con- sisted of five bands getting together for an all day, out- door show. On the country side of things, a conflict was pre- sented to students who were Hank Williams Jr. fans. Wil- liams’ concert was sched- uled for the same night as the Homecoming dance. ‘“‘l chose to go to the concert because | have one more year of high school, and | can always go to Homecom- ing next year,”’ junior John- ny Outenreath said. No matter what kind of music students listened to, concerts always added that special touch. “I think the reason concerts are so excit- ing is the fact that you're right there with a group known worldwide, and they’re performing especial- ly for your city,’’ said senior Noel Gresham. itRSS SE NE A FAN OF THE HARD ROCK group Deep Purple, junior Danny Jacob converses with junior Mi- chelle Jaykus after school.

Its formula was guarded so heavily that no one in the world had ever discovered its secret. It was acclaimed to be ‘“‘the rea l thing.”’ Coke, of course. The coke formula alter- ation caused mixed feelings. “If they hadn’t brought the old Coke back, | would have changed to some other soft drink,’”’ said senior Teresa Davis; but sophomore Mark Durbin said, “I really can’t tell a difference.” Was the drink changed as a promotional scheme? ‘‘Of course,” said junior Angie Whitaker. ‘‘It was a perfect way to get publicity and not have to pay for it.”’ What kind of civilian would be appropriate and most deserving of a ride in the space shuttle? Accord- ing to NASA and President Reagan, a teacher was suit- able for the adventure. From over 11,000 teach- ers who sent in applications for the chance of a lifetime, Christa McAuliffe, a high school social studies teacher from Concord, New Hamp- shire, was selected. The shuttle lift-off on Jan. 28, 1986, never gave any in- dication that anything was wrong until the inevitable occurred. With little over one minute into the launch and without any warning, the shuttle Challenger ex- DURING BREAK, sophomores Diane Porras and Kristin Healy en- joy their Classic Coke.

Also noting all the changes that have been made, fresh- man Shane McComic_ be- lieved that ‘‘Coke has made a bad mistake and now their image is paying for it.”’ “Coke has been around ploded, killing all seven crew members, including McAu- liffe. Students and faculty, along with the rest of the na- tion, were stunned after hearing the news. “‘It is a tragic loss for the country as well as for the families of the crew,” said senior Allison Heo. “Il was very deeply moved by what happened and I’m trying to figure out why it is affecting me so much,”’ said senior English teacher Jean- nie Hunt. As a result of this national tragedy, President Reagan halted further missions into space until NASA could find out exactly what happened. ae.

Photo by Leah Duckworth Photo by Leah Duckworth 22 Student Life } The maitre d’ theatened to set the stroll- ing violinists on fire, the picture line was nearly a city block long, and Mrs. Nancy Stephens forgot the class gifts, but stu- dents stayed at the prom anyway. Officers of the class of 85 began as early as September encouraging seniors to stay for the entire evening, and days be- fore, posters promoting this idea were hung throughout the school. As seniors arrived at the prom, they suspected that president Bryan Cumby and the class offi- cers had planned something special. On the night of May 25, the Apparel Mart was donned in shades of mauve, sil- ver and off-white. Dinner began at 7:30 but it was quickly interrupted by the popping of cap guns. Two young men on the stage who announced themselves as the enter- tainment, pulled out violins and began to serenade not only the seniors, but the often clumsy waiters. Pre-planning makes prom more than just a meal As the dinner drew to an end, tension between the serving staff and the young musicians built, and the frustrated maitre d’ threatened to set a nearby violinist aflame if he didn’t go away. Following the dinner was the presenta- tion of gifts. Although the class sponsor had left the principals’ gifts at home, the officers went on with the presentation as if they had them and then presented Mrs. Stephens with a set of diamond earrings. When the dancing began, a live band ac- companied seniors Amy Berliner, Christie Edwards and Stephanie Ramsey as they sang ‘‘Moments to Remember,” the song from which the theme was taken. Soon the officers had the tables cleared, encourag- ing students to dance. “Everybody seemed to cut loose and enjoy themselves,’’ explained Steve Sell- ers. ‘‘It was like since it was the last dance and the last time we’d really be together, everybody relaxed and didn’t worry about what they looked like.” At 11:45, the waiters brought out non- alcoholic champagne, purchased from the Student Council, and the class joined presi- dent Cumby in a toast to themselves and “anything else’’ anyone could think of. Afterward, students attended the usual parties at various homes and hotels, but most agreed that this year, the prom had been equally or more enjoyable. “Everyone says proms aren’t what they’re cooked up to be,” said Chris McNeill, ‘‘but ours was!” KICKING THEIR HEELS up to the musical tune of the “‘Cotton-Eyed Joe,’’ seniors Carol Wray, Harold Mathews, Teresa Perez and Pat Parham join the others for a taste of country music. Musical dance selections included a variety of favorites to match the persuasions of the entire class. Photo by Leah Duckworth 23 Terrified beyond belief, you enter yet another dark corridor.

You work your way towards a seemingly innocent exit, only to be surprised by a sudden tap from an unidentifiable black shape. Too scared to do anything but run, you head for another exit, passing an open grave along the way. Hands of zombies start to reach for you as the exit looms nearer.

It was open from Oct. 24 to Halloween night, attracting custom- ers every evening. Planning started during the destruction of the previous year’s fun- draiser. As senior class sponsor Janis Wohlgemuth explained, ‘We started think- ing of better ideas and how next year was going to be, the day we tore it down.”’ It wasn’t until a little over 11 months later that these ideas were finalized by the junior and senior parents and class officers. After plans were shown to the parents, committees were selected and construc: tion could begin. It consisted of a jungle scene, a hall with Jason in it, a graveyard, a mad scientist’s laboratory, and two con- necting halls. The building of the attraction took ‘‘about four weeks including decorat- ing it,’’ said co-builder and parent Axel Moch. While this was going on, the stu- dents interested in working at the Haunted House were called together to sign up for a role in the House. “Opening night showed everyone how the Haunted House worked. It was really a practice night,” said senior Andy Richard- son. For the next week customers and money poured in. Betsy Wilkins said, ‘‘The Haunted House was really fun. It went | great this year.”’ But the event didn’t go without com: | plaint. Injuries resulting from the chain- saw, walls coming loose, and Jason’s glass door shattering were but some of the faults. Junior Scott Walters, sighting a problem, said; “‘l think the House was too small. It should have had more rooms.”’ The Haunted House raised over $3200, which was split between the juniors and | seniors. But to some of the students the: money wasn’t everything. ‘“‘The Haunted | House allows people to meet others in their | class creating more friendships, which in : turn,”’ said senior Darrell Ganus, ‘‘helps to | unify the class.”’ SONYA TAYLOR PREPARES Cathy Baynham, who in turn prepares Sonny Ross, for work in the Haunt- ed House.

Here, senior Casey Turner, who portrayed the chairlady in the produc- tion, helps build the stage extensions over the stairs as senior Melanie Worley looks on. Fall production questions artificial intelligence tests Silence enshrouded the audience. Then the music softly echoed throughout the auditorium, and the drama department’s fall production Flowers for Algernon be-’ gan. Charlie Gordon, portrayed by senior Doug Goodrich, is a young retarded man. who is given the chance to achieve his ultimate dream a chance to become intelligent. Then, as senior Selene ‘Wacker, who played Mrs. Nemur, explained, “Charlie gets the same operation that Algernon, the Student Life mouse, has had. The operation increases his intelligence to genius level. The really tragic thing is that no one knows what will happen later.” Meanwhile, his teacher Miss Kinnian, played by Kim Shiver, has fallen in love with Charlie. She compares her intelli- gence level to his and finds herself feeling inadequate. Finding out that he may lose his intelligence causes Charlie to have a difficult time dealing with his emotions, as well. Tragic childhood memories continue to plague his subconscious. “During the convention at Chicago, Charlie deduces from Professor Nemur’s | speech that he will probably regress. It's similar to knawing you're going to die soon,’’ explained Jay Thomson, who played Burt, the lab assistant. The story comes to a tragic conclusion when Charlie does indeed regress and de- cides to go to the Warren State Home, a place, as Charlie says, ‘‘where they never talked of hope.” (continued on page 28) DURING PROFESSOR NEMQR’S party held in his honor, Charlie finally comes face to face with his inner self-the retarded Charlie of his teenage years. In the background, Anne Welberg and the maid, played by senior Sally Thompson, and freshman Ashlei Davis respectively, display their shock at Charlie’s behavior.

Fall Production 27 A (continued from page 26) For some people Flowers for Algernon brings a larger understanding about retard- ed adults. Goodrich said, ‘Society tries to put them on a shelf and forget about them, but they’re going to be there no matter what.” Although there were limited major roles, many Thespians were satisfied to get a minor role. ‘‘A minor part in a play produc- tion is a real challenge. | always strive to do my best whether it’s major or minor,’’ said Casaundra Turner, who was assigned the role of the Chairlady. The no-pass, no-play rule had an effect upon the tryouts for the play. During re- hearsals, the actors were put under pres- sure, not only to get their lines memorized but to keep their grades up as well. ‘‘The FED UP with living with a retarded child, Charlie’s mother, played by junior Sabrina Snell, forces his father, acted by senior Darren Hervey, to take teen- age Charlie, played by sophomore Robert Carboni, to the Warren State Home, a mental institution that spoke of little hope. Photo by Lisa Wacker Student Life Play questions artificial tests plays have always lowered my grades, but | just had to buckle down and work harder this time,’’ said senior Darren Hervey who played Charlie’s father. The new drama teacher, Mrs. Vicki Tapp, admitted that since she loves the technical part of the theatre as much or more than acting, the fall production crew had their work cut out for them. They stayed long hours after school to get the revolving stage and the 41 different light changes ready before opening night. Junior Travers Scott, who played Dr. Nemur, said, ““The crew played a major role in making the play a success. Nothing could have been done without them. The actors recreate people, but the crew cre- ates the world for them to live in.” AFTER THE FRIDAY NIGHT PERFORMANCE, sen- ior prop crew member Wendy Torbert takes advan- tage of the hospital gurney left on stage to take a quick nap.

Dancing began in the cafeteria around 8:30 after the presentation in the auditorium. Photo by Jim Ball Tuxedos were ordered and reordered. Al- teration dates for dresses were made and changed. Dinner reservations were planned, cancelled, and remade. Hair ap- pointments were rescheduled. This minor chaos occurred because of the basketball game at Highland Park on Sat., Jan. 25, which was the original date of Celebrity Ball. The Varsity and JV boys’ basketball teams were scheduled to play at 6 and 7:30 p.m. and the Ball was to begin at 7 p.m. Since this prevented many nominees and escorts from attending the presenta- tion, the traditional dance was moved to Fri., Jan. 24. The change in plans was announced 10 days prior to the Ball. Sophomore Class Favorite and JV bas- ketball player Kirk Ethridge said, ‘| was really upset when | knew that I'd have to choose between the game and the dance. Changing the date was really good for me so | could do both.” Friday new day for celebrities The new date required intense prepara- tion for almost everyone involved since many plans had to be altered. “It was real- ly hard when they changed the date be- cause I'd already asked off of work on Saturday and | had to reschedule,”’ said sophomore Thuy Nguyen. The theme, “‘Some Enchanted Even- ing,’ was portrayed by stage and cafeteria decorations. Nominees and their escorts walked across a misty stage through a large white gazebo. The classic gazebo was surrounded by winter plants and trees cov- ered in sparkling snow. The emcees, Coach David Wallace and Ms. Diane Onstot, were unexpected partici- pants in the evening. “‘l was really excited to see Ms. Onstot again,’’ said senior Cathy Laudon. “‘She really made the evening spe- cial.’’ Ms. Onstot had left the week before the dance for an administrative job at Me- morial Middle School.

The next day, the Marauder staff and Key Club members worked together to re- store the cafeteria and stage back to their everyday appearances. Although the date change created some problems, the dance seemed to turn out well. “‘When they changed the day, I had to do lots of phone calling so | could change our‘limo reservation and my tuxedo. But, the night on the town was worth it,” said junior Sean Langhout. gigantea eiatis | LOOKING INTO EACH other’s eyes, senior Doug Lioodrich and freshman Sharlene Prinz dance in the ‘afeteria.

Harjala said he had been playing this instrument for eight years.

For Patrick, this scene was especially hard because of the inten- sity of emotions. Photo by Jim Ball 34 Student Life A dark blue hue was cast on the stage to allow just enough light for senior Doug Goodrich to get his props from a homely trunk in time for his next scene. The trunk was the fountain from which the actors drew their creativity. A Company of Wayward Saints depicted Comedia del Arte, a type of theatre used in the Italian Renaissance employing certain stock characters that practice the art of improvisation. In the words of Scapino, played by sophomore Allan Harjala, ‘‘We prefer to build castles from your childhood memories, to create worlds with gestures.”’ Preparation for the play lasted three — weeks. “Il thought that even though the rehearsals involved hard work, there was a more relaxed atmosphere because the play was a comedy,” said junior Pam Winde r who played Colombine. “Because of the many different emo: tions that must be portrayed such as in the y : birth scene, as well as the death scene, this | play was a definite challenge to each indi- — vidual actor,’’ said senior Thespian Kathy | Collins. AT THE PLAY’S END, each character understood his or her supporting role in the Company. As they wait for their curtain call, Ruffiana and Capitano freeze in position.

Publicity began one week before the play which ran from Feb. 13-16. Unlike the Fall Production, the Spring Production allowed the audience to sit on tage. “When you have people right in front of you, it takes a great deal of concentration to stay in character because you realize any mistake you make will be noticed,” said sophomore Patrick Poehler, who act- ed the part of the lover Tristano. The audience reacted to the play with loud claps of enthusiasm. ‘‘I loved the play bec ause it dealt with emotions that all of us must go through in life,’’ said sopho- more Damon Black. “‘I felt the general mes- sage of the play was the importance of team work,” added junior Brad Sigler. The lights came down on the desolate stage that had been animated with laugh- ter moments before. Slowly the actors, one by one, put away their props that had helped create their various personalities in the tired old scruffed up trunk. Junior Travers Scott said, ‘‘After the show, al- though we were all exhausted, there was a great sense of pride felt by all the actors for putting on a successful performance.” AT THE BEGINNING OF A Company of Wayward Saints, the two lovers Tristano and Isabella are played by sophomore Patrick Poehler and senior Kathy Collins.

However, not every- one likes his or has the same color. It is something everyone must have: a locker. One of the frustrations of lockers was remembering the combination. There were those who tried to get around the problem; unfortunately, not everyone’s idea worked. ‘| had written my combination on a piece of paper but | left it in my locker,’’ said senior Vikki Stiles. Not remembering the combination was a traumatic experience for certain students, TO REFLECT THEIR personal tastes and to give their lockers the home away from home look, the majority of students decorated their lockers. At the end of fifth period, senior David Burrows gets his books needed for his next class. Photo by Jim Ball STACKING LOCKERS IS a common method for revenge among friends at school. However, there were students who did something different. Senior Andy Richardson's friend senior Liana Marquis took all of Andy’s books out of his locker and replaced them with bricks.

Some students shared lockers with friends. However, problems arose from this arrangement. “‘Keeping it organized is so difficult. You definitely need shelves,” ju- nior Traci Ratliffe said. “It can get really Problem lockers create headaches for students crowded when we both need to get into our locker at the same time,” said senior Becky Brannon, whose lockermate was senior Teresa Davis. Lockers were, at times, vulnerable to practical jokes. “‘Someone took all my books out of my locker and put bricks in it,’ said senior Andy Richardson. Although sometimes annoying, lockers were a useful and necessary part of each student’s life. Approximately 2500 lockers were avail- able in the five hallways. NOTE PADS ON the inside of locker doors are used to communicate with friends and locker mates. Sen- ior Kira Kuzmiak catches the books that are ready to fall out of her locker one day after school.

With a membership of more than 200, its goal was to raise money for the repair of the Statue of Liberty. The academic calendar experienced a few twists and turns when the original GISD plan did not conform to the state’s guidelines. The end of the first semes- ter and exam days were moved up a week. The same bill that kept seven percent of the foot- ball team off the field dur- ing the second six weeks also mandated a new test, TEAMS, that all students had to pass to graduate. Less than 10 percent of the juniors taking the test failed. Organizations were the same as they NEVER were.

Long hours, short hours, or no time at all. Whatever the method, Raiders had their own ways to excel in perfor- mance.

We tried to have them use their minds and give their opinions,” said Mrs. Peggy Manning, head of the English Depart- ment. Overall, it was not only the responsibility of teach- ers to energize students to become creative, but also that of the students to be active in showing interest in learning. “‘If the class was interesting, | would make better grades and wouldn't lose interest,’ said junior M’Lou “Boo” Taylor.

Key Club opens doors with SERVICE In 1925, after witnessing all the trouble people could get into, a college fraternity member thought of an idea to keep kids off the streets. He contacted a local Kiwanis member about his idea. With the permission of the Kiwanis Club, which would act as sponsor, he devel- oped a very selective club consisting of people who would be dedicated to help- ing others. He named this first high school service or- jects and kindled interest with the curious ‘“PKX” shirts. At the end of the year, the club had grown to 60 members, but with a membership drive in the fall of 1985, the club acquired over 200 new members.

Another major project was raising money for the earned the JC Penny Golden Rule award of $1,000 and a trophy. “Our major emphasis this year was to get all of our members involved in the projects that we do,”’ said ju- nior Bao Phan. “We accom- plished so much with just a fraction of our club that we wanted to utilize all of our manpower (200+) to do even more.

Language clubs cultivate FOREIGN IDEAS The English language is the second most used lan- guage in the world today. If it is so widely used, why would anyone go through two or three years of lan- guage class to learn a new tongue? “IT am taking Latin this year because it’s a basis for English,” said junior Beneva Daily. “Hopefully | can raise my SAT scores with the knowledge of the Latin roots.’’ Sophomore Tristan Hontz added, ‘‘German is the language of science.” _ Others chose to learn a language for more practical purposes. “Il decided on Spanish because of the prox- imity of Texas to Mexico,” said freshman John Coker. “It could become useful or even necessary soon.” A few wishful students en- rolled in a language in hopes of visiting Europe. “‘I think it would be fascinating to tour Paris,’ said senior Noel Gresham. While students studied the new languages, some 66 Learning a foreign language enriches your mind and helps you become a better overall per- son. Becka Deutsch, junior wanted to delve further through German, French, Latin or Spanish clubs. When the French Club held their first club meeting, 80 people came to discuss upcoming events, such as the bake sale at the October- fest celebration and a Marie Antoinette party. ‘‘Coordi- nating so many activities with so many people was a challenge as well as a joy,” said president Karl Deutsch. The Spanish Club had bar- ely started when the news of a destructive Mexico City earthquake arrived. Using money from last year’s trea- sury, the club sent $2,500 to aid the victims. “Il didn’t know that our fund raisers would become so useful,” remarked president Kellie Garrett. The Latin Club combined with students from Garland High and held an _after- Christmas party. Plans were made to attend a Foreign Language Weekend at Aus: tin College and compete in language reading and writ- ing. No matter what language was taken or for what rea- son, students were quick to agree it was well worth the effort. Sophomore Kelly Scott said, “In learning a new language, I’m not only learning to speak differently but to act and think differ- ently.”’ MAKING AN IMPORTANT AN- NOUNCEMENT, Spanish Club presi- dent Kellie Garrett presides over an after-school meeting. Club meetings were held about once every two weeks.

Decathlon extends MENTAL EXERCISE The beginnings of the 1986 Academic Decathlon team were rooted in the 1984-85 school year. At that time a meeting for interested students was held to intro- duce them to the Academic Decathlon. In the '85-’86 school year, weekly meetings were set up, guided by four veteran members Manish Shah, Alli- son Heo, Thi Dihn and Dud- ley Fitzgerald. “‘We were really glad to have these members return to help us teach the new members,”’ said Donald Card, co-spon- sor of the Decathlon. It took weeks of hard work for students to study every aspect of education: math, literature and_lan- guage, history, fine arts, sci- ence, economics, speech, an interview, a timed writing sample, and a comprehen- sive test over every aspect of immigration.

In 1984 an organi- zation was formed to accom: modate these students. Its name was Youth and Gov- ernment, or YAG. To participate, a student selected an area of the state government in which he wished to participate. These areas ranged from lobbyists to state Supreme Court Jus- tices. Most students picked an area called Executive Government Planning (EGP), in which the student would draw up a plan to correct an area of the state constitution _or state laws.

Throughout the year oth- er projects, such as working the concession stand at bas- ketball games, polling com- puter dating on Valentine’s Day and hosting an inner- _ city friendship banquet, kept this group extremely busy. “‘Homecoming, Christ- mas decorations and Twirp Week are highlights of each year,”’ said junior Troy Pres- .tenberg. Checking student re- sponse to the new Texas seatbelt law, student council members handed out suck- ers a few mornings in Sep- tember and October to those students entering the park- ing lot wearing their seat- belts. “This was a fun way to welcome everyone back to the new school year,” said sophomore Matt Shu- gart. This also was part of Safety Week, which empha- sized wearing seatbelts, not drinking while driving and practicing efficient school fire drills.

Before tryouts was a time for rigorous work. A group of 26 ambitious girls trained extensively for a week to learn the traditional cheers and to prepare for tryouts. They struggled with fear as their turns to perform for the judges approached. For the 12 girls who were chosen, it was a time for joy. There was little time to rest; though, for this new squad. They worked through the summer except for a three-week vacation. Every day from six to eight or even 10 a.m., they worked to prepare for sum- mer camp in July and the football season in fall. At summer camp, the new squad proved their tal- ent by receiving an award as Squad of Excellence. Red Squad member Carrie Griz- zle was chosen by scouts from the National Cheerlead- ing Association as an all- 70 Organizations American cheerleader, an award based on spirit, enthu- siasm and overall perfor- mance. “It was surprising out of all the competition to get the nomination, but it was scar- ry too, because | had to com- pete by myself and against Jeni Rada, my own team- mate,” said Grizzle. Like the Varsity, the fresh- men were chosen to go to national competition in Or- lando, Fla. in December. While most squads do not qualify until regional compe- tition in the fall, these fresh- men were selected to go as early as summer camp. For each of the three squads, the Florida trip cost over $10,000. In addition to the usual obligations of at- tending practices and aames Photo by Dawn Brendel and making signs and deco- rating lockers, the freshmen devoted much time to fund- raisers. Challenged by the tradi- tional jeering from upper- classmen at the fall pep ral- lies, their spirits or work atti- tudes were not dampened. “Though it was embarrass- ing, we expected it,”” com- mented Leigh Ann Walker. Through all activities, the girls seemed to always be to- gether. As Mrs. Norma Boyette, their new sponsor, said, “‘They are a close-knit group.

Through thick and thin, band Fred Freshman awoke slowly to the gentle prod- dings from his mom. He glanced at the clock. He closed his eyes, shook his head and glanced again. Why was his mother waking him up at 5:45 in the morn- ing during the summer? Then he realized that today, Aug. 1, was the first day of summer band practice. Scores of sleepy fresh- men gathered on the back parking lot, eyed closely by their senior squad leaders. Most did not know what to expect. ‘‘My first few days were really scary,” said freshman Jay Mason, “but after a while | made some upperclassmen friends and marching became easier.”’ After two days were spent on basics, the next Monday, with all of the band mem- bers. present, senior drum major David Faulkner blew the whistle to signal the first full practice of the year. The next weeks were spent drilling elementary maneuvers and_ learning harder ones, such as back- ward and two-step march- ing. Preparations had to be hurried this year. Because of the no-pass, no-play legisla- tion, the GIL marching con- test was scheduled two weeks earlier than usual, and other contests were to occur before the first six- weeks eligibility period ex- Even though the band didn’t do as well at contests, our pride is still intact. pired. The contest show, planned by director Neil Chamberlain, consisted of intricate arcs, lines and cir- cles. ‘‘The music was,” sophomore Tristan Hontz ex- plained, ‘‘very fast and diffi- cult to perform.” As the Plano East contest time ap- proached, tempers began flaring as rehearsals gradual- ly became longer. Junior Kenny Gossett said, “We would march entire num- bers over and over to perfect small mistakes. It was very nerve-wracking.’ Despite the rehearsals and minor adjustments, plus a renewed determination, (continued on page 74) Danny Ramsey, junior ON THE WAY TO CENTRAL PARK, Junior Drum Major Joel Coker leads the band in the annual Labor Day Pa- rade.

Mon., Oct. 7 was the Garland Band Festival and the following Saturday was the UIL marching contest.

It will determine the dedica- tion this band has for its pride.”’ The Monday after the Plano East contest, the band began the tedious process of me. polishing a show they al- ready knew. Members be- came tired of running drills over and over, but they knew it was necessary for a first division rating. UIL came that Saturday. Being the last to perform, the band was anticipating a good performance. The pro- duction, however, was not good enough to justify a first division rating. Said senior Michelle Wilcox, ‘‘We were sure that we would be able to make a one. We were dis- appointed to only make a two.”’ Senior Pat Norsch ad- ded, ‘“‘This is the first two that we’ve made at UIL con- test in 7 or 8 years.

If not for the echo of his voice, the man might not have been saved. In the same way, the “Echo”’ staff strove to reach every student with an infor- mative newspaper. Consisting of ten mem- bers, the staff took on a large responsibility. Every three to four weeks, they gathered news, not only about school but about the community as well. The staff members often had to work after school and on weekends to complete an issue, which was totally writ- ten and printed by students and financed by ad sales. “Selling ads and_ inter- viewing allows you to en- counter all walks of life,” said Travers Scott, a first- year staffer. The staff tried to modern- ize the paper and reach all 2,500 students. “‘We are almost _left- really trying to make a no- ticeable change. This school has a lot to say and we want people to know,”’ said senior Bryce Boyd. The paper was redesigned to include a new nameplate and more graphic detailing. The staff started a new col- umn entitled “Our Side of It’ which reflected the un- known side of what could be a disturbing issue. Another new approach was an early press confer- ence with Principal Linda Drake. Sponsor Linda Stafford encouraged staffers to be creative but warned them not to lose sight of factual foundations. They decided on coverage, created the lay- outs and typeset the copy. Printing trades students, supervised by Mr. John Mor- gan, printed the eight-page tabloid. “We are like a service or- ganization,”’ said Lisa Hold- er, junior. “Our purpose is to get people involved by in- forming them about school activities and issues.”’ Marauder staff lives through DEADLINE DIN Watching intently as Judy Allen, summer workshop in- structor, critiqued the theme layouts, the yearbook staff hurriedly took notes on everything she said. After she left, pandemon- ium broke out. “OK, you guys, we have 35 minutes to rework this into something magnificent,’’ someone said. Then everyone started rush- ing around looking for pic- tures, pencils, scissors, glue and rulers. “Workshop was a_ busy time, but | think. it brought the staff together,” said sophomore Morgan Hillis. Summer workshop, held at Eastfield College in mid- July, was a time for the staff to learn new ideas and ren- ovate old ones. “IT was really surprised when I won an award (for best all-around beginner) be- cause | didn’t know a thing when | started,” said Dawn Brendel, senior and one of DURING FRESHMEN REGISTRA- TION, sophomores Leah Duckworth and Misty Twadell relax until more students come to have their school pictures taken.

Mi- chelle Dillard and photogra- phers Craig Cooper, Leah Duckworth and La Tonia Parker also won awards. When school started, the staff began work. ‘“‘The theme was my responsibil- ity, but | had problems get- ting ideas well into Septem- ber. It was tough because the whole book centers around the theme,”’ said ju- nior David Stewart, editor. Though there were some problems with the theme, they were resolved and work continued. At deadline time the staff went crazy. ‘‘It seemed like we lived at the school during deadlines,’’ said section edi- tor Melissa Roper. ‘‘Though the work was hard and the hours were long, it’s worth it all when the book comes out,’’ added senior Michelle Dillard. : The business staff han- dled the financial end. They took orders for annuals, sold individual pictures, and so- licited advertisements for the community section. In the end, all of the long hours and frustrating days made this year’s book the ‘‘same as it never was.” Hurriedly trying to finish her October layout, senior Melissa Wysong crops her pictures.

Printing trades students were overwhelmed with work throughout the first se- mester. Their projects in- cluded printing football and dance tickets, attendance permits, detention slips and some business cards. ‘‘Ever- ything was so hectic, but ev- eryone felt a sense of satis- faction once we were done,” 96 Organizations 66 I feel like ICT is a good opportunity for students to get on-the-job training in industrial careers. Tamara Floyd, senior said Cindy Brown. ICT enabled students to leave school early and re port to a job that interested them. The jobs were ar- ranged for each student at the beginning of the school year or the summer before. In some cases, students al- ready had jobs that qualified for ICT, therefore being able to stay at the same place. Small electrical jobs were sometimes done by the members of Electrical Trades, along with odd jobs TRYING TO FIGURE OUT where the wires belong can be difficult. Chuck McClaine and Sam George try to make it easier by working on an air condi- tioning unit together. around school. Their main projects were located at two different houses. The Building Trades house was a joint effort be- tween all Garland high schools. : The Pace House was a res- toration project of an older Garland home. “Doing the actual wiring of a house was interesting because it en- abled us to know more about the construction of a home,” said Bruce Hutch- ins, a senior.

The spectators sitting un- der the press box were stunned, but the fans on the other side were thrilled. The Raider football team had just handed the Scots one of their worst defeats, keeping them off the Raiders’ half of the field for the better part of the game. Despite their strong begin- ning season, the Varsity football team did not live up to predictions that it would win District 9-AAAAA, but the Highland Park game did much for their credibility in the eyes of other schools as well as this one. To the fans delight, Raiders succeeded in other areas also. The gymnastics program continued its tradition of state championships for the boys, with the girls also per- forming well. In addition, the boys went through their sec- ond straight undefeated sea- son. Exceeding expectations, the Varsity baseball team had its best year ever, win- ning 28 of 33 games with one tie.

Be- fore 1985, female athletes had to go into the bathroom in order to change clothes. Their gym was repainted, and the locker room was ex- pected to be complete with showers and lockers for each person next year. Athletics were the same as they NEVER were.

The quest for the state title began in late February '85. A snow-covered field delayed the first days of practice, leav- ing them less than two weeks of prac- tice before their first game. ‘‘We played all summer, and most of us had been hitting at the cages, so we were ready to play,’ said Carl Meyers. The lack of practice didn’t hurt the Raiders as they remained undefeated through the first 12 games of the sea- son.

With '84’s 5-4-1 season and this sea- son’s 5-5 record, the team has started a tradition far different from '83’s winless season. The '84 team was named “‘one of the state’s most improved teams’”’ in the August edition of Dave Campbell's Tex- as Football magazine. The Varsity football program contin- ued on-going changes. ‘‘The players are becoming more dedicated and are devel- oping a better attitude,’ said head coach Howard Evans. Evidence of these changes became ‘i ah ae Fan A a on apparent not just in attitudes but also in concrete results. The Raiders earned their first victory over Highland Park in the school’s 14-year history. ‘We were all together for that game,”’ said junior Scott Jesmer. ‘‘There wasn’t a team on earth that could have beaten us that night,’ he added. Following this paramount win over the Scots, the Raiders fell to North Mes- quite. “It was a big disappointment be- cause we realized we’d lost our chance at the playoffs,’’ said senior Nat Martin, who got a scholarship from Purdue. “We just couldn’t get points on the board and that lost us some really close games,” he explained.

A significant drop in the failure rate from the spring game to the first six weeks’ reports resulted. ‘‘I think it made a difference. It offered the guys extra help and incentive with their grades,” said senior Rodney Webb. With the end of the '85 season also came the announcement of head coach Howard Evans's resignation. The instal- lation of a new head coach next season meant more adjustments for the team. Predicting the effect of these changes on next year’s team, senior Nat Martin said, ‘They will have to keep a positive attitude and give things a chance to fall into place.

But, this did not stop the Raiders as the girls rallied to lead in the second game. However, the momentum was broken when the Scots argued with the referee over the legality of Virginia Hayes’ arm brace. After breaking her arm earlier in the season, Hayes used the brace to protect her arm from further injury. “At the time, I did not think about my arm,’ said Hayes. “‘All | wanted to do was play, and if | couldn’t play with the brace, then | didn’t need it.’’ After the referee ruled the brace be removed, the Scots slipped by with a 16-14 victory. ‘The girls were a fun group to work with,’’ said Coach Sandra Godwin. ‘‘We had a lot of talent and we tried to achieve unity.” This season, unity was the team’s “something special.”’ AS SHE BUMPS the ball at the beginning of the first match against Lakeview, Renee Kelly looks for a sure point.

This year’s team with a district record of 8-4 proved to be the best girls’ Varsity in the school’s history. With five players returning and five players making their move up from Ju- nior Varsity, the team had an equal amount of depth on the court and on the bench. ‘“‘This year we had a bench that could go into the game and be competi- tive. That’s something we haven't had in the past,’’ said Coach Kathy Nors- worthy. Starting the preseason with high ex- pectations, the team won its first six games. “I think preseason helped us prepare for the district,’ said junior Wendy Edwards. ‘‘We never had an easy game. That, combined with our workout program, got us ready for the tough season.” Next, the team competed in three consecutive tournaments earning a tro- phy at each one. At the Grand Prairie Tournament the Raiders placed second, losing the first game of the season to South Grand Prairie (55-66). For their efforts Tonya Jenkins and Annie Lock- ett were selected to the All-Tournament team. In the Coca-Cola Classic held for the first time at North Garland, the team placed second. At the Birdville Tourna- ment held in Haltom City, the team fin- ished third. Tracy Lumkes, the tourna- ment MVP, said, ‘“‘Even though w e did well in the tournaments, | think we could have won them all.’’ Coach Nors- worthy added, ‘I didn’t schedule presea- son games for easy wins. | wanted to get us ready for district.”’ With a quick start the team won five of the six games in the first round of district play. The high point of the sea- son came when the team stopped a fourth quarter run by Wilmer-Hutchins to win 52-51. During the second quarter Annie Lockett, the high scorer of the game, put in 15 points, pulled down 7 re bounds, and picked up 6 steals before leaving the game with a knee injury. That impairment left Lockett on crutches for the remainder of the sea- son. ‘‘This was the first year that we beat Wilmer.

The team entered the second round of district play in second place. A win over North Mesquite would have placed the Raiders in a tie for first with North Mesquite. However, the Raiders suf- fered their biggest loss with a score of 40-64. ‘‘Even though we were on the court, | don’t think we showed up for the game,”’ said Amy Gilder. ‘‘We made too many mental mistakes.” After losing to North Mesquite, the Raiders were in control of second place by one game. However, in the next game Mesquite surprised the Raiders and pulled away with a 48-53 win. That loss tied the Raiders with Wil- mer-Hutchins for second place and a spot in the playoffs. In the Wilmer game the Raiders held close to the Eagles until the end of the third quarter, when a series of contro- versial calls by the referees forced tur- novers. ‘‘I don’t think the referees were fair, ’ said senior Tonya Jenkins. ‘‘Just that little edge gave them the chance they needed to win.”’ In the fourth quar- ter those turnovers combined with the inability to score gave Wilmer-Hutchins the win and the playoff spot going into the last game of the season. The Raiders won their last game as the Wilmer-Hutchins Eagles lost to Mes- quite forcing yet another tie for a play- off spot. To break the tie, the Raiders played the Eagles at Forester Colliseum, a neu- tral court. At Forester the Raiders de- feated the Eagles 64-62. In their first playoff game the Raiders faced South Oak Cliff, which was ranked first in the state polls. Before the game, senior Tracy Lumkes said, ‘‘We didn’t want to play their reputation.

However, in the second half South Oak Cliff countered with a full court press that caused Raid- er turnovers and cost them the game. ‘“‘We really made them work for this win,” said junior Abby Hutchins. ‘‘The score doesn’t show how close the game was.

Clinging to a one point lead with one minute on the clock, ju- | nior Chuck Wolken hit two free throws to cinch the win over the Patriots. The following Friday, however, was a different story. Having traveled to Wil- mer-Hutchins, the team was short the play of their key post man, junior Ber- nard Cernosek, who was out with an ankle injury. The Raiders came out on the short side of a 79-71 ballgame. ‘‘This loss really hurt,’’ said sophomore James Werner, ‘‘because it was our first loss in district.” The team rebounded with five wins before its rematch with Lakeview. Both teams went into the game with 8-1 dis- trict records, but the Raiders fell 47-59. “We hated to lose this game because it gave Lakeview a one-game lead for the district title,” said sophomore Jeff Thompson. There was no rematch with “Wilmer- Hutchins, however, as the Eagles forfeit- ed the Feb. 4 game. The team’s hopes for a district title were ended with a 36- 46 loss to the South Garland Colonels. While injuries and House Bill 72 had little impact on the team, good free throw shooting and field goals kept the Raiders in the district race and in reach of their pre-season goal: ‘‘to be the best possible team that we could be,” said Coach Bill Epperson.

This scene could have been witnessed at most games throughout their successful sea- son. The addition of several players added to the team’s spirit and scores. ‘‘We've come close together as a team, and it has really improved our playing,’’ said Amy Box, a sophomore. Although Stephanie Lind was moved up to Varsity, the team continued to play well. “The new players have strengthened the team as a whole,” said Box. Rules on ineligibility and the game had mainly positive effects on the team. ‘Most of the players made sure they passed everything,” said Kristie Collins, a junior. The ‘University Interscholastic League issued a rule requiring teams to alternate possessions of the ball. Instead of returning to the circle for a jump ball whenever the ball was tied up, it was given to the teams on a rotation basis. ‘‘The game isn’t as exciting, but it goes a lot faster,’’ said Collins. Ineligibility did affect the teams at other schools, however. Four teams the JV played against combined many freshmen because ineligibility greatly reduced the freshman teams. Some sch ools had to drop the freshman teams completely and put eligible players on JV. In the North Garland Coke Tourna- ment, one of the two they competed in, the girls’ JV team finished third. They also competed in the Birdville Tourna- — ment. Completing their regular season with an 18-5 record, the girl’s JV took first place in district with a 13-1 record, be- coming the undefeated city champions. | COMING IN FOR A FAST BREAK, Toni Bennett, a sophomore, chalks up two points for the Raiders.

Even with the winning record, the team did not win either the city or dis- trict titles.

Starting the 1985 fall season, a new coach, Mr. Jack Arnold, took over. Mai Anh Tran, a senior, said, “We lost a lot of good people on the team, but the new coach was really good.” Coach Arnold worked to develop the abilities of the underclassmen who re- cently joined the team. He explained, “The current team has a lot of potential with people like Donaghey, Luong and Presley, who are all seniors, but the fu- ture lies with the underclassmen.” 44 Top Row: Rick Genovese, Chris Miller, Won Choe, Giovanni Mayorga, Urcan Tanik, and not pictured: Yale Scott, Trung Nguyen, John Donaghey.

Both teams led the district meet going into the final events. Felicia Parker, a sen- ior, broke three records at the city meet in addition to sweeping all three jumping events with her best jump of 37-11 % in the triple jump. Kelly and Annie Lockett fin- ished close behind with third and fourth place spots. Dominating the throwing events, Kim Fouts, a sophomore, took a gold medal in shot and silver in discus. Finishing strong, senior Laura Fitzgerald placed second in the 220m dash and soph- omore Erica Wade, who overcame a pre- season knee injury, took second in the 100m dash. Parker, Wade, Fouts, RaeDawn Gibson, and the 440 relay team of Lockett, Kelly, Parker and Fitzgerald competed in the re- gional meet where Parker’s first place in the high jump earned her a trip to state competition in Austin. ‘‘With this being my last year and my last opportunity to reach state, | gave it my all,’’ said Parker. Through a combined effort the boys’ fin- ished third in district by dominating the field events. Contributing to the early lead, Jeff Smith, Steve Sellers and Michael Brooks picked up points in the shot and discus competitions. Duwain Crockett achieved a double score by earning a gold medal in the 110 hurdles and silver medal in the 330 hurdles. Steve Smith completed the competition, earning two silver medals in the.880m and 1600m runs. ‘We got much of-our strength from the field events,’ said Jeff Smith, a senior. ‘“‘At most of the meets, we were in the lead coming out of the field events.”’ Jeff Smith, Crockett, and Steve Smith competed in regionals with strong finishes in their fields. Jeff Smith placed third in the shot put, missing a trip to the state by 2.26’. He also collected a bronze medal in discus at regionals.

For the girls’ and boys’ cross-country teams, this scene is repeated every Sat- urday for the fall season. The season started late when the first meet was cancelled because of a rain- storm. ‘‘Usually we have one meet to adjust to course conditioris,”’ said Craig Cooper, junior. ‘‘This year we lost that time.” However, the lost adjustment time did not hurt the team at the St. Mark’s meet. In the Varsity race, the boys fin- ished in the top 30 overall when Cooper took ninth place and Jon Stokinger placed nineteeth. In the JV girls’ race Shelly Stafford came away with third place and a tro- phy, while Debra Slavin earned an award by placing nineteeth. John Kelly, a freshman, won the JV AWG boys’ race. “St. Mark’s was the best meet of the season. Everyone began to get a confortable pace and we won by running our kind of race.”’ In the district meet, the girls’ team won first place by finishing in the top 20. For the Varsity boys, Cooper battled for fourth place to earn a trip to the regional meet. Despite both teams fin- ishing third overall, as a group they missed going to regionals by one point. At the regional meet Cooper finished fifty-fourth. “Il faced the toughest com- petition of my life. Although my place is not excellent, | ran my best time for the season,” said Cooper. “When this season began, we had only one senior so we had to rebuild,”’ said Coach Cathy Norris. ‘‘Because of the experience we gained this year, next year’s team should be strong and com- petitive.” THINKING ABOUT PRACTICE, MIKE CAM- BELL, senior, stretches his hamstrung muscles.

Such was not the case at North Garland. Beginning workouts in early October, first year coach Steve Redd stressed the fundamentals of soccer. Dribbling, pass- ing, and strategy were worked on in the early practices. The Varsity team got off to a slow start, winning two of their first six games. “We played some really tough area teams, and it was frustrating losing by one or two points,”’ said Coach Redd. Christmas break provided a needed rest for the team, and they rallied in the second half of the season for a 6 - 6 record overall, placing third in the dis- trict. ‘I think the Lakeview game was the turning point,’’ said senior Sean Hus- son. ‘We went out there determined to win, and we did.” The boys’ JV team, composed entire- ly of sophomores and freshmen, played only four of their scheduled nine games. Due to the no-pass, no-play legislation, many opposing teams combined JV and Varsity rosters to fill the positions of ineligible players. ‘“‘We had quite a few games called off, and the ones we played were played against teams com- posed of more experienced juniors and seniors,’ said freshman Patrick Slowinski. Despite the stronger opposition, the soccer teams were optimistic about the season. ‘‘We had to adjust to a new coach this year, and overall | think we did pretty well,’’ said Varsity goalkeeper Steve Turquette.

Law XV is just one of the 17 rules for soccer games which referees were required to know. ‘‘The rules were a lot easier for me to understand because | grew up playing the game,” said freshman Matt Stokes, who both refereed and played on the club team, Genesis. Candidates were required to pass a physical fitness test, a field assessment and a written examination with a Mam score of 75 percent or better before they become an offi- cial referee. “‘A referee’s job is to enforce the rules of soc- cer and keep the players safe,’ said Sonny Ross, who had refereed for three years. Referees were paid be tween $8-25 each game de- pending upon the age level of the game they were offici- ating.

Then came the questions. “Who is he?”’ or ‘Where is he from?” These and other questions’ circulated throughout North Garland before Joe Allen's arrival in January. Allen, who had coached the past four years at Elec- tra High School in West Tex- as, accepted the position be- cause “it was an opportuni- ty for professional advance- ment,” said Allen. “‘It has al- ways been my goal to coach a 5-A team.” Coach Allen had a coach- ing record of 84 wins and 12 losses, plus two state cham- pionships at two different schools. Allen himself was an_ all-conference football player at North Texas State. “He's one of the most sought after coaches in the state,’ said Homer B. John- son, athletic director for GISD. Moving and resettling with him were his wife, Lyn- da, and his two sons, Chris and Casey. The Allens planned to enroll Chris at Webb and Casey at Spring Creek Elementary. ‘I’m sure the Allens will fit in very well,”’ said principal Linda Drake. In addition to coaching football, Allen taught two health classes starting with the second semester. The football program will have many changes to get used to in the ’86 season. After his initial meeting with the play- ers, Coach Allen said, ‘I was very impressed with both the team’s appearance and the attention they gave me at out first meeting.” DURING HIS FIRST WEEK with the Raiders, Joe Allen concen- trates on getting settled in his new +o office. On his desk are several re- membrances from Electra High School.

Dis- appointed by the weather-re- lated destruction of the bub- ble over Holford pool last year, the team resolved to make up for last year’s set- back. ; With the bubble replaced and a new coach, Kelly Oex- man, the team was ready for a fresh start. Being small in number and having to com- bine with Garland High School to form a complete team, they concentrated on technique, not numbers. Their persistence won the boys’ team an undefeated status at mid-season. The girls, usually outnumbered, held a 2-4 record. With girls’ and boys’ scores combined, the team won four of their five meets at the mid-season point. Sophomore Patty Hamil- ton said, ‘‘We have a better attitude this year, and every- one works more seriously during workouts. However, one of the most important factors of our success is the coach.

The 1985 team was the first to go to state. Photo by Jim Ball It has been said that re cords are made to be broken. In the vocabulary of Cincinnati Reds’ player-man- ager, Pete Rose, a record does not produce sound — it produces fame. The goal Rose spent his career trying to achieve was breaking Ty Cobb’s record of 4,191 base hits. Rose’s pursuit of Cobb’s record ended in the bottom of the first inning on Sept. 11 when the Reds played the Padres. With the count at 2 and 1, Rose hit the ball in front of the left fielder Car- melo Martinez for hit 4,192. Before the ball even hit the PROF ground, the stadium ex- ploded in an emotional cele- bration. “I think it’s a very out- standing achievement which won't be repeated for a long time,’’ said senior David Faulkner, who pitched for the Raiders. “I admire his competitiveness,” he added. Rose has been critized be- cause he broke Cobb’s re- cord with 2,000 more times at bat. In Cobb’s career, re- lief pitching did not exist. Even with the debate about who is the better hitter, the fact remains that Rose reached the magic number of 4,192. Without buying a ticket, the Key Club, NFL, SADD and Close-up Club discov- ered a way to attend Cow- boy games. These organiza- tions attended sports func- tions and raised funds simul- taneously. Their secret was having members work the conces- sion stands and novelty booths at Cowboy, Ranger and SMU games. They sold everything from cold drinks 162 Athletics to pennants. From the total sales, the clubs received a percentage of the profit. “We arrived three hours before the game started to set up so that we would be ready for the first custom- ers,” said Tony Gibbs, a Key Club and NFL member. The Key Club reported having netted between $1,000 and $1,400 profit at each of the eight Cowboy games they worked. SERVING COLD DRINKS and ring- ing up purchases were some of Liana Marquis and Jennifer Pak’s responsibilities while working in the concession stand. Key Club members worked at four Ranger — games.

In the past, students could orga- nize their activities as they wished, but in 1985 the state imposed its ‘‘grades come first’’ laws. Fortunately, a_ positive learning environment was maintained, and although students were given more to worry about, they also had more freedom to dresss and express themselves as they wished.

Ordinarily,-any students with their names written on graffiti posters put up in the hall would be in severe trouble. In a spe- cial case in 1985, Mrs. Drake encouraged a group of seniors (that called themselves the Zero Club) to violate school policy and even agreed to be their sponsor. The name “Zero Club” and the membership of the group was entirely based on supersti- tion. ‘‘Zeroes”’ Oe from the opposite of a ‘“‘ten.’’ The members were, in ag the leaders of the senior class. The membership, also, was quite different from any other club. There were exactly 13 members because, according to legend, 13 is unlucky. For Zeroes, it is just the opposite; 13 is a lucky number. “Being such a small group helps us keep organized and also helps us have a lot of fun,”’ Spirit-oriented eroes “in a wrap” for fu said senior Dana Jeter. With Mrs. Nancy Stephens as their new sponsor, ‘86 Ze- roes wanted to promote school spirit and participation. At Homecoming, they decorated a hall of their own, they passed out the words to the cheers at Varsity football games and ev- ery week they had honorary “Zeroes of the Day.” Honorary Zeroes were award- ed to students for accomplish- ments that normally weren't noticed. These awards were given out on Thursdays to be worn throughout the day by the honorary members. ‘Giving out these awards helps boost students’ spirit and makes them want to work harder,’ said senior Doug Goodrich. In a reminder of the limits of “fun,’’ Mrs. Drake's voice could be heard echoing through the halls: ‘“‘Attention Zero Club. The paper in the halls needs to be picked up.

Senior Jerry Land said, “I enjoy the privilege of driving to school, but finding a parking space is a big hassle.”’ Other drivers escaped that problem by coming early. ‘Be cause I’m in the band, I’m ac- customed to getting to school early, so there’s always a park- ing space for me,” said Deric Salser. Students not old enough to drive or who lacked the posses- sion of a functioning auto- mobile relied on other drivers to get to school. Twenty eight percent of the student body got a ride from a friend and 14 per- cent rode with a parent. “‘Al- though | have my license,”’ said junior Todd Wheeler, ‘‘I find it more run to ride with a friend.” The remainder of North Gar- land students either rode the bus (6 percent) walked (9 per- cent), or rode a bicycle or mo- torcycle (1 percent). Junior Steve Turquette said, “Be cause | live so close to school, | find it easier just to walk. Be sides, it saves me $18 a year.” Although the majority of people polled relied on one mode of transporation to arrive at school, a few had a variety of methods at their disposal. Said junior Heidi Kissig, ‘In any giv- en week | could drive, ride with a friend, or walk to school. | found it a challenge just to get up here every day.”’ Jellison-Knable Derek Jellison: Frosh.

Cats, clowns, goblins and ghosts were seen in the halls during the traditional Hallow- een dress-up day. This day was a symbolic way to celebrate the holiday while attending school. Encouraged by the student council, Mrs. Uniqueness and originality add a resh pace to Halloween Drake and teachers offering ex- tra-credit, the spirit of Hallow- een was sparked in several Raiders. “Thinking of an idea that bar- ely anyone would have was the hard part; wearing it to school was the fun part,’’ sophomore Kristin Healy said. Some different ideas like Bet- tina Buchs’ Kleenex box, and Mrs. Diane Onstot’s nun were witnessed during the day. Ju- nior Katherine Kelly, comment- ing on her day as a tree, said, ‘‘My dad thought of the idea, and my mom put it together. Besides having to turn sideways to get through doors, and walking down halls getting stared at, | had a great time.”’ The day offered a way for students to express their own uniqueness and originality. It added a change of pace to the usual routine. WALKING THROUGH THE HALLS dressed to terrify, sophomore Matt Cave turns to find his way to sixth period. Cave got his hood in New Or- leans during Mardi Gras.

But students, and in some cases their parents, found ways in which to suc- cessfully waken and get ready for school. One solution was cold show- ers. “A cold shower in the morning really wakes me up. It's comparable to jumping in a pool during the summertime,’ said freshman Chris Linley. Freshman Eric Tiritilli added, “I can’t get going without my morning shower. People appre- ciate me more, too.” WITH A SOFT DRINK by her side, freshman Lisa Hill completes a biol- Ogy assignment. Students used time before school to finish homework.

Vivarin, coffee and soft drinks were most widely used. ‘The first thing | would do after | arrived at school would be to get a coke so | wouldn't sleep in first period,” said junior Brian Rat- Leree: Innovative parents came up with some sure-fire methods of waking up sleepy _ students. “My mom would often come into my room in the morning and turn on the light,” said sophomore Bobby Corley. ‘‘I would kick and yell at her to turn it off, but by then I wa s wide awake.” While everyone else chose to wake up and try to stay con- scious, one decided to try to beat the system. Said junior Scott Walters, “I would always get to school on time. But that’s only because I had study hall first period and I'd just go back to sleep.”’ READING CAREFULLY, freshman Carrie Grizzle relays an important morning announcement to the student body.

Elvira Esquivel, senior, re ceived balloons and a teddy bear from her little sister in band on Senior Appreciation Day. ‘‘It was really an original gift,’’ Esquivel thought. Chris Makowka, a_ junior, said, ‘‘I decided to give Lisa flowers when | thought of how much I care; roses say a lot.” After receiving a dozen red roses from her boyfriend for no special occasion, sophomore Colleen Phillips said, “‘Steve said he gave me the roses just because he cares. | was so sur- prised that he sent them to me to prove how he feels.”’ For a way to enter some one’s heart, an exciting gift was almost always the key. With carnations bought from DECA, roses from a florist, or balloons from a store, memories were created as a form of Raider care.

Despite the existence of these inventions, left-handers were -often forced to adopt right-handed ways. When shak- ing hands and opening lockers, for example, most used their right hands. ‘‘I don’t have any left-handed supplies, and I use my right hand for everything except to write and eat,” said Allison Stewart, a sophomore. A few proud lefties, however, refuse to go against their natu- ral tendencies. ‘‘My father likes me to drive with my right hand, so | do when he’s in the car,” said Jon Stokinger, junior. ““As soon as he gets out of the car, though, I use my left hand at the wheel.” DESPITE THE DISCOMFORT caused by his arm slipping off the desk, junior Jon Stokinger continues to write left- handed. He took French II and was a member of the French Club. ALTHOUGH SENIOR CRAIG AUSTIN is capable of using either hand, he has to use his right to play the trumpet.

Six months of construc- tion lead to its grand opening. The wing, which once was part of the courtyard walkway, was partly designed by Mr. N.P. Lohstreter. Begun at the beginning of the 84 year, the new wing itself was completed and opened for students’ use in the spring of 85. Petitions blocked half of the 100 and 300 hallways as old rooms were also trans- formed into science rooms, which reopened at the begin- ning of the ’85-'86 year.

The metroplex area had one of the widest varieties of radio sta- tions in the Southwest. The FM band had two coun- try, two Christian,, three con- temporary, two album rock, and two adult contemporary stations. It also included one classical, one Spanish, and one community network. Although stalwart stations such as KEGL, Q102, KSCS, and KAFM maintained their popularity, the year saw the emergence of new stars to the FM dial. ‘‘The real attraction of KNON is that they play such a great variety of music,”’ said ju- nior Terry Jenkins. KNON, a community station located at 90.9, played every kind of music put in record or tape form, ranging from coun- try to rock. Students tuned in primarily for the new wave- hard core music. KISS 106’s_ slogan “The switch is on!’’ held true in the student poll. KISS pulled in a greater percentage of the votes than its closest competitor, KAFM. As the poll indicated, KEGL was the most popular radio sta- tion on campus. Freshman Kel- lie Gregory explained, “It just plays better music and has bet- ter D.J.’s than anyone else. It’s great!”’ Station 97.1 pulled in a ma- jority, with 25 percent of the total votes. Running a not so distant second was Q102. Its votes made it the number one After pulling in a third of the votes, EGL lands number one album rock station in Dallas — Ft. Worth. Besides just being a musical entertainment, the radio was also listened to for news and other information. “‘The news gives me a lot of insight into what's happening,” said sopho- more Pam Creede, who re- counts the times she has tuned in for school cancelations dur- ing bad weather. From punk to urban, and classical to contemporary, Dal- las radio offered any type of music a student could want. , UTILIZING A POPULAR FORM of me- dia expression, senior Lance Hudson places a bumper sticker on his car.

This navigator was Mrs. Linda Marshall. The fund raisers that the ju- niors participated in were nu- merous and diverse.

However, it’s real life in Garland for junior Darrell Tinglov who is in on the action. An interest in law enforc- ment led Tinglov to join a pro- gram known as the Garland Po- lice Explorers, Post 384. Be- sides the organizational meet- ings held twice monthly at the Garland Police Department, Ex- plorers volunteered their ser- vices assisting veteran officers. “Since becoming an Explor- er,’ said Tinglov, “I have had the advantage of riding with a police officer and was involved in a high speed chase which resulted in two arrests.” Tinglov has also helped di- rect parade traffic, as well as work security at the North Gar- land Haunted House. Each year Explorers from across the United States meet in a challenge of skills, such as building and bomb searches, crime prevention, officer viola- tion contact, and traffic stops and arrest. The winner of the contest is then eligible for a law enforcement scholarship. ‘This is the best organization I've been in,” said Tinglov. “‘If you're interested in becoming a police officer, this program makes it easier to get into a police academy.” TIGHTENING THE WIRES on a meter base, Darrel Tinglov hooks up the ser- vice to an air conditioning unit. In ad- dition to his police training, he learned electrical trades skills for the past two years in the vocational program, under the direction of Charles McClaine.

Sounds like a professional weather- man’s credits, don’t they? Ac- tually they are. Starting in late 1984, senior Tim Vasquez began work for The Garland Daily News. After hearing about his weather ex- perience, The News gave him a job as the local weatherman. Vasquez’s interest in meteor- olgy started in Weselberg, West Germany, “simply because of the changeable weather there.”’ He lived in Germany from 1974- 1977 before moving to Austin where he began forecasting. After Austin, he spent a good portion of his time in 1981 and 1982 at the U.S. Air Force Weather Station at A.F.B. in the Philippines. “I only got good after five years of attempting to predict the weather, and these days it only takes me a minute to come up with the forecast,” he said. He did this either by using the weather shelter he built in the summer of 1985 or by checking his computer which is hooked up to the National Weather Services Computer Center. Although Vasquez can pre- dict the weather well, he ad- mits that ‘‘One of the hardest things is forecasting snow. | am much better at forcasting tem- peratures than precipitation.” Senior Mike Campbell recalled a time when Vasquez ‘“‘predict- ed rainfall and only missed by a minute.’ With plans to major in me- teorology and a minor in news Clark CALLING GP WEATHER information about Memphis, Tennessee, Tim plans out a weather chart. His computer can report any U.S. weather. Photo by Danny Moch broadcasting, Vasquez desires a job with the National Weather Service and shortly afterwards becoming a television meteo- rologist. Pertaining to forecast- ing, Tim said, “If you want to be good, you have to know what the weather is doing, know what it might do, and have complete faith in your forecasting.”’ BEFORE REPORTING the North Gar- land weather to The Garland Daily News, Channel 8 or Channel 5, Tim Vasquez checks the instruments in his weather shelter.

Winning over 40 awards so far in her hobby, she attended equestrian shows at least twice a month in Fort Worth or Mes- quite. “Going to the shows makes all my work worth while. I get to meet lots of peo- ple with my same interests,” said Cosgray. “Charlie,” a quarterhorse, and ‘‘Sugar,’’ an Appaloosa, were used for jumping and she took both to halter classes, al- though she would switch the horses for the different shows and classes. ; Enrolled in HOSA (Health Occupation Students of Amer- ica), Cosgray planned to be- come a large animal veterinar- ian after attending Texas AGM osgray jumps for her career Cniversity.

Lay had wanted to join SADD since she had first heard about it. ‘‘I felt that there was a need for a lifesaving club such as SADD,”’ said Lay. “My goals for our chapter are to have every member ac- tively involved and to feel as if they are an important part of our club,” said Lay. “It won’t be only officers making deci- sions.

He weighs 115 pounds. Just by looking at him, a person would not think of him as physically aggressive. People do not know that freshman Eric Tirtilli is a state competitor in Greco-Ro- man wrestling. Tiritilli became interested in the sport over four years ago. “Because my friend’s dad was a wrestling coach, he invited me to go to one of the prac tices, and | kind of liked what | saw,” Eric said. He liked it so much that he came in fourth place in state championship competition last year. His success, however, did not come easily. Tiritilli went to a Plano gym three times a week to train. The two-to-three hour sessions consisted of strenuous exercising and_ weightlifting. Practice matches were set up to show off techniques and for students to learn from their mistakes. He also explained, “The practices were very rough and when | got home, I'd be tired.” Tiritilli competed in 10 pre- liminary matches before going to the championship. The Sat- urday matches were scheduled from November to February ie around the Dallas Metroplex. He competed in Division 5, the 115-122 pound class. “The matches got me used to the dif- fering competition. It helped me tremendously when the state matches come around,”’ he said. Although he admitted the training and work to be tough, he believed the results to be worth the preparation. “I was really excited when | did as well as | did last year. Only a few points kept me from taking first. Next year I'll be even more ready,” he said. WHILE STANDING in a defensive pos- ture, Tiritilli studies his opponent to originate a plan of attack.

As his hobby, freshman Anthony Ramming flies these remote-control planes. “‘I fly during the summer because the winter and spring months are too windy,’’ said Ramming. He became interested in the planes at the age of 13. “Some friends and | were out shooting rockets and there were these men flying planes, and | be came fascinated by them.” It costs a few hundred dollars to build one plane. The main equipment consists of a mini- engine, a plane kit, controller and covering paper. ‘To build a plane,’ said Ramming, “it takes me three to four week- ends.” ‘Just watching it fly and knowing that you’re controlling it is the best part,’’ Ramming said in regard to what he liked best about the planes.

Last sum- mer, an organization called Youth for Understanding ar- ranged for her to visit Ger- many. Braun, who was co-presi- dent of the German Club, stayed two months in Muster- maifeld with a German family. During her stay, Braun did much sightseeing. ‘‘The castles were the most impressive pre- served art forms I’ve ever seen,” said Braun. ‘‘They were unforgettable.” She also at- tended several wine festivals and visited the home town of champion tennis player Boris TO PREPARE FOR the Solo and En- semble Contest in February, Braun practices the music she will use.

Right away, Braun had to ad- just to the differences in the eating habits and systems of measurement in Germany. “Germans hold their forks in their left hands and knives in their right hands. It’s supposed to stay this way until the entire meal is finished,’’ she said. ‘‘Any clothes or shoes I bought were in metric sizes. Before | bought anything, I had to make conversions.” “The German people are unique,”’ said Braun, ‘‘in both their attitudes and customs. It’s a beautiful, mountainous coun- try, and I'd love the chance to go’ back.”’ AFTER RETURNING FROM Germany, Braun examines many of the souve- nirs she collected.

Annette, a freshman, is ranked a second degree black belt in karate. It took her approximately three years to reach this level, but the ranking consists of eight degrees. During this year, she was preparing to take a test for the third degree. She has been taking karate lessons for seven years, begin- ning when she was seven years old. It was planned for only her brother to try the sport, but An- nette became interested and de- cided to join him. Her workout consists of two- hour lessons, three days a week at Kims Tai Kwon Do. She also practices two hours a day on her own. “| hope to compete some- day, but | don’t feel I’m quite ready. I'd like to perfect what | can already do,” Annette said confidently. PRACTICING AT HOME enables An- nette Luevano to perfect her skills at karate. She hopes to someday make use of her black belt ranking in compe- tition.

Be- fore leaving for school, she had to make sure to feed the hungry fish. Kumbier’s parents sparked her interest in fish. ‘My par- ents always had an aquarium when | was young. I’ve been collecting on my own now for about five years.” A few years ago, Kumbier did a research paper on tropical fish. Last year she constructed a maze as a science fair project for her biology class. She trained the fish to go through holes in a plastic box to find their food. The project took about three months to com- plete with about 10 different fish involved. These fish were red platies, white cloud min- nows and glow white tetra.

Yet, the number of foreign exchange students also grew. These students wanted to know more about the life, culture and the mysti- ' cism that makes America what it is. One of these students came | from a port town in northern Germany. ‘‘When | first arrived here, | felt lost, and the lan- guage barrier didn’t help any,’ said senior exchange student Kai Glindemann. Sharing the views of his fellow Europeans, Glindemann saw America as “‘a land of opportunity.’’ ‘‘In school,” he said, ‘‘there is 4 much more of a choice. “In Germany our classes are _ DISCUSSNG THEIR VIEWS on Amer- ica seniors Steve Gulliver and Anth- ony Dent attempt to formulate an opinion on schools. ‘‘The school sys- tem here is a lot more lenient than in Australia,” said the pair. Photo by Jim Ball set and we have nothing like autoshop or childcare.’’ With the many malls, shops and con- certs, Americans “‘have a lot more things to do, because Ger- man shops close at 6:00 p.m. and are not open on Sundays.” Although he doesn’t foresake his homeland in the least, Glin- demann said he “‘likes and ap- preciates America and its peo- ple.” The French, or at least Lake- view’s exchange student Marie Rey, viewed America in a differ- ent light. ‘Friendships are hard to come by because you're only with people an hour. In France, it’s the teachers who move from class to class.” However, Rey did admit some drawbacks in the French sys- tem. They are in school from 8:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. with a two-hour lunch. During this lunch, “‘we often played cards or attended movies,” said Rey. Rey also noticed that “‘we (the French) see more of Amer- ica than America does of France.” This is to say that America is more self-reliant than other nations. Another viewpoint came from a pair of traveling stu- dents from ‘‘down under.”’ In 1986 Australia celebrated its 150th birthday. In accordance with our own Sesquicenten- nial, several Texans traded places with Australian students to get a feel for the different atmosphere and cultures. Senior Steve Gulliver with Anthony Dent, who also visited America, noted, ‘“‘America is neither better nor worse than Australia, only different.’’ Gulli- ver commented that ‘Ameri- can nationalism and pride in its internal organizations far out- does anything in Australia.” The Assies noticed that the d.S. is more like one big city, while 90 percent of the Austra- lian population lives in its doz- en or so major cities. School is much the same with 12 grades, but after the senior year the students take an exam; and if they pass, they are allowed to attend college — free! If they fail to pass, they are not allowed to go to college at all. HAVING TO ADJUST to a new cul- ture, senior Kai Glindemann said, “Everything was so new to me that | was really lost for about a week.” Freshmen 231 ammett acts for fun, pleasure, of it For someone who started acting by pure accident, sopho- more Francie Hammett is en- joying herself very much. ‘I owe my career to my fifth grade music teacher. She start- ed my acting,’’ Hammett said. Mrs. Karen Turner, Ham- mett’s music teacher, placed the 10-year-old Hammett in starring roles in two class plays. Before that time, she had never even thought about act- ing which since then, has led to roles in plays and bit parts in several movies. Hammett’s favorite produc- tions at Garland Civic Theatre were Annie and The Wizard of Oz. “| was one of seven or- phans in Annie, and | had a lot AS A SEVENTH-GRADER, Francie Hammett’s first starring role was in The Wizard of Oz.

That was my very first major part. I'll remember it forever,’ said Hammett. “ll always like stage acting over movies because it takes more ability and it’s more cre- ative,’ said Hammett. She learned the inside story of mov- ie making last summer when she had a part in True Stories. David Byrne, lead singer of Talking Heads, starred in the Dallas-based movie that depict- ed a Texas Sesquicentennial celebration. “I got to see how, in movies, you say three lines, then stop, change lighting, repeat your lines, stop, freshen your ma- keup and say your lines over and over,’’ Hammett said. “Right now, I’m_ going through an in-between stage. I’m too old for children’s parts, but I’m too young for adult roles.’’ Hammett auditioned for the director of River Rat, but she was considered too tall. “It’s always little things like that,’’ she said. ‘‘| want to do movies like Sal- ly Field because she does mor- al ones,” said Hammett, who is determined to make ‘“‘the big time,’’ starting with theatrical studies as a Thespian. “‘I really admire Field and her acting,” she added.

He is the cre- ation of Todd Richardson, an artistic 16 year old who started drawing almost five years ago. “| started drawing back when all the teachers wanted students’ drawings to put on their bulletin boards,” Richard- son recalled with an intense- ness as if were yesterday. ‘‘The teachers would ask the class who the best drawer was and they would always say some- one other than me. | wanted to be the one they called the best, but I never said anything. | just agreed with the others.” Richardson started taking art classes in seventh grade and says he learned a lot. His dad is always telling him to keep working at it, though. Richard- son lovingly refers to him as ‘Mr. Encouragement.”’ 236 People ‘‘Now people think I’m good. My friends are always asking me to draw for them, but I don’t always have the time.’’ But when Richardson does have the time and he’s in a drawing mood, he heads straight for a pencil and paper. “I created Rising Sun for my best friend, David,’’ he said with’ great admiration for his friend. ‘David and Rising Sun are both big and both always try to d o the right thing. Nei- ther of them likes to see a big guy beat up on a smaller one. It makes them mad.” When Richardson finishes high school, he wants to attend an art school but he’s not quite sure of what he wants to major n. “I'd really like to draw for a comic book, using Rising Sun. | wouldn’t mind doing anima- tion.

With the educational reforms centered on extracuricular ac- tivities, Principal Linda Drake was relied upon for definition of the new laws. ‘‘This year I have the answers to questions about eligibility,’’ said Principal Drake. Continued adjustment to HB 72 was one of the tasks stu- dents faced. “The attitude is changing,” said Assistant Prin- cipal Jim Lewis. ‘‘Students are beginning to take responsibility for passing their classes, They are really trying to get the best education they can.” The educational reform put an extra strain on the already dedicated administration. “There will be many nights when we (the principals) don’t go home until 9 o'clock,” said Assistant Principal Jerry Hali- pin. ‘‘We work all year long ex- cept for three weeks in the summer.” The uproar over HB 72 dwin- dled as administration and stu- dents became adjusted to ex- periencing its continuation and revisions.

Mrs. Herrington is wearing a popular spirit sweatshirt that the Booster Club sold during football sea- son.

There were only 500 people in the high school grades, small by Garland standards. Indeed, she had a small-town life. Then Mrs. Ann Herrington got a teaching degree and all that changed. Her husband’s overseas job took her to Freiburg in Breis- gan, West Germany, for two years. After this, the family moved to Garland, where she has taught both English and math. Not only does she have a busy career, her family, includ- ing two children, requires extra effort to keep up with. In addi- tion, she has enjoyed getting in- volved with extracurricular ac- tivities. Key Club became almost a bigger job than teaching. It all started when Mr. Mike Brown, the Key Club sponsor, asked her to chaperone the girls at a district convention. ‘“‘He prom- ised an all-expense paid week- end with few responsibilities.” After that, she was hooked on Key Club. “I was tremen- dously impressed with the cali- ber of students at the conven- tion,’ she said. Her enthusiasm lead her to accept co-sponsor- ship of the club. “There is a tremendous amount of work involved, and | spend about 20 hours a week on Key Club activities,’’ she GENTLY, AND WITH GREAT CARE, Mrs. Herrington grooms her fern. An- other of her hobbies in baking: ‘“‘When I die and go to heaven I’m going to be skinny and cook and eat all the cinna- mon rolls | want.” Photo by Andrea Steele said, ‘‘but it is worth the time and effort to work with stu- dents who are caring, giving, motivated and intelligent.” Although all this leaves pre- cious little time, this modern day lady often turns to her fa- vorite hobby, growing rare ferns and orchids in her back- yard greenhouse. “I sell the ferns to collectors and keep most of the orchids for my- self,’’ she said. However, her delicate or- chids have occasionally deco- rated the school library. Though city life has made Mrs. Herrington a modern day working woman, perhaps a touch of her small town life is still reflected in her hobby. TO WELCOME THE NEW KEY CLOB- BERS at the installation on Wed., Sept. 18, Mrs. Ann Herrington offers greetings in her speech. Her enthusi- asm as a sponsor continued as she helped the large club in its campaigns.

In apprecia- tion, the businesses in the area contribute by support- ing Labor Day pageants, student publications and other school-sponsored ac- tivities. Or is it the other way around? Nevertheless, there were opportunities for enrich- ment in Garland. The Gar- land Center for the Perform- ing Arts has been the home 246 Community for the Garland Ballet for more than two years, as well as providing an alterna- tive to high school audito- riums for local plays and concerts. Nicholson Memo- rial Library has been the area’s informal center for English paper research for years, along with its lesser- known function of present- ing movies and slideshows on occasion. Perhaps the biggest new development for Garland residents was the arrival of Dallas Area Rapid Transit service. DART began exten- sive bussing here as well as in other North Dallas sub- urbs. One could get around Garland for as little as 50 cents, and avoid conflicts with Dallas traffic for a maximum of $1.25 for crosstown fare. Being Dallas’ largest sub- urb brought Garland _ its problems, but the relation- ship between the business and education sectors was mutually beneficial. The community was the same as it NEVER was. WAITING AT THE PARK AND RIDE on Walnut, DART’s unmis- takable new yellow buses trav- eled all over Garland. Although initial business was slow, offi- cials expected more riders in the . future.

With the enactment 16, 1985. of the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) busing system, carless peo- ple had a means of getting around. The Europeans, pioneers in mass transit, had been using the systems for years. In 1984 Dallas City Council members, after visiting several Euro- pean countries, voted in favor of the DART plan. This vote caused a tax increase in Dallas county to help fund the system. The average in-zone charge was about $1 and student and senior citi- zen passes were available at reduced rates. The main streams of traffic for Garland were down Walnut in the south and down Beltline in the north- ern portion of the city. This caused a slight ease in the traffic on these two busy streets. The idea of busses had a favorable opinion in the school. ‘‘It was great. | didn't have to fight any traffic and | could sit back and talk about the Cowboy game,” said senior Mike Campbell, who used DART to attend LIKE THE STUDENTS that use DART, junior Troy Prestenberg and Kenny Gossett wait for a bus, so that they can attend a concert in Downtown Dallas.

They are just a few of the many groups that use the Performing Arts Center. Open 30 out of 31 days a month, the Center is a busy place. Completed in June 1982, it pro- vides a place for civic organizations to conduct their meetings. Before its construction, the gatherings were held in parks, recreation centers and high school auditoriums. The audi- 252 Community ences have doubled since the Center opened. Two awards have been won for the unusual building design. ‘‘We are glad that Garland had the foresight to build it five years ago. Other cities in the area are just starting their build- ings and they are using ours as a prototype,” said Patty Granville, di- rector of the Performing Arts Center. THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER, located on Fifth Street, has become well-known for its unusual design. It is dedicated to the growth and development of the cultural arts in Garland.

As a memori- al, the Nicholson Library was built in 1933. Since its somber beginnings, Nich- olson has collected over 210,000 vol- umes, with an additional 1,000 arriv- ing each month. Students used them frequently for research and recrea- tion, but the library stored more than just books. Two hundred eighty per- iodicals, various video and audio cas- settes, and works of art were avail- able free of charge. Puppet shows, stories, movies, and craft workshops were given on a regular basis as well. Continuing its devotion to public service, the library was selected by the state to receive a Kurzwail opti- cal scanner, a device that “‘reads’’ regular books for the blind using a voice synthesizer.

We would like to thank the peo- ple who made our tasks easier. Thank you Mrs. Lillian Slowinski for your assistance at Celebrity Ball and the work that went into the scorebox artwork in the Athletics section. Thanks to the faculty for your patience and understanding throughout the year. Thank you Mr. Pete Lohstreter for straightening out the index for us. Hopefully we'll get it right next year. Thanks to all the teachers, par- ents, and students who donated photos to us. Thank you Mrs. Linda Drake for lunch on January 30 and for finding Mr. David Ray. Mr. Ray, we are an- ticipating a great book next year. Special thanks to Mr. Tread Shef- field for all his help and to Josten’s Publishing Co. for hiring him. Tread, we always looked forward to your visits and the humor and knowledge you brought with you. The biggest thanks go out to Mrs. Linda Marshall and Mrs. Linda Staf- ford. Mrs. Marshall was the sponsor of the Junior Class and FBLA, taught four classes a day, and still had time to make our ad section outstanding. Mrs. Stafford, your dedication and support of this book, the previous three volumes, and the newspaper have made an enor mous contribution to the school and its students. We will miss you. Finally, the Marauder Staff would like to thank you, the student body, for giving us something on which to focus our energy. We hope that we have given you something to be proud of as well. 293 WITH ACADEMIC DECATHLON competition the following week, seniors Dudley Fitzgerald and Liana Marquis and junior Kenny sponsor Peggy McCarty. The con- test was held on February 1, 1986. The team prepared three days a week after school. Gossett discuss strategy with A new object appeared in the night sky in 1986. The much-anticipated thirtieth recorded approach of Com- et Halley to Earth accompa- nied other new develop- ments with somewhat less fanfare. Increased efforts of coun- selors and teachers result- ed in improved PSAT scores over last year. The class of 1985 had three Commended students and no Semi-Finalists, while this year’s seniors had nine Commended and four Semi- Finalists. This was attribut- ed to the inclusion of vo- cabulary reinforcement in classes and extracurricular academic coaching.

After years of disappointing seasons, the Girls’ Varsity Basket- ball team went to the area playoffs for the first time. Overcoming the handicap of injured players, the team won a trophy in each of its three regular season tourna- ments. For another first, the Key Club won one of five J.C. Penney Golden Rule awards of $1000, recogniz- ing its outstanding volun- teer service in the Dallas- Fort Worth area, and the Academic Decathlon cap- tured two bronze, one sil- ver, and one gold medal in Region 12 competition.

How to fill them was the job of the 1986 Marauder Staff. For the alumnus, there are pictures. Having already seen the Homecoming game and the Labor Day Parade, all he needs to recall those events are images. For the outsider, there are words. Having never seen the school or the students, he needs a vivid description of them to see what they already know. It is our sincere desire that these two components, framed by colors and graph- ics, will allow everyone who peers into these pages to see and to understand why North Garland High School was the same as it ... well, you know the rest.
