Sorry, sir. 864 boys and 806 girls for a total of 1670 students. That's what we have at Norwin Senior High School. With 530 sophomores, 573 juniors, and 567 seniors, Norwin high school is a huge place with many faces. Then considering the 108 faculty members, 8 sec- retaries, and large support per- sonnel, no one could ever possi- bly know everyone. But what is it that makes this school so spe- cial? ls it the curriculum? or the paint on the walls? or the shape of the building? No. lt's the ap- proximately 1800 people who come here on a daily basis that make this place Norwin Senior High. Anyone can count the faces, the books, the desks, the lock- ers, the pencils, and the count- less other items found in the school. But these items are meaningless without the persona alities, and people behind these counted items. Without the peo- ple, Norwin would be no more special than any other school. Anyone can quote the facts. lt's a little more difficult to search behind those facts. The 1988 Pennon was de- signed to present in photos and print the faces behind the facts- not Just the facts.

The enthusiasm and cooperation for such occurrences as the Fall Play, Lip Sync Con- test, Breakfast in Disneyland, Sno-ball, and Prom caused these occasions to be spectacu- lar. The uniting of all students at the Home- coming celebration was just as lively at the Recognition Assembly for the volleyball, football, and band. The Student Life section captivated the outrageous and energetic fashions of this year. rAlso, students ex- pressed their long lasting friendships dating back to kindergarten.

These students put forth great effort and determination to make the school year an enjoyable one. They are the ones who carry out the meaning of responsibility and leadership.

The officers of each class can be very proud of their achievements. lt takes a leader to be a class offi- cer and faith in that leader from the class to make a successful school year.

Scott Bertani wanted, to get the whole soph- omore class involved in high school activities and a more complete participation by each class member. Dana Ed showed her positive attitude also by saying that she would like her class, to enjoy the year through a show of pride and participa- tion.

T.J. re- marks, Ul would like to get all of the juniors involved in more school activities and try to unite this as a group.

Comedy Depicts Serious Dilemmas II hat a Life, a play by Clifford Goldsmith is an amusing comedy with a serious message of knowing one- self and doing what one wants with life and not what others say to do. Henry Aldrich iplayed by Todd Ritterl is a student at Cen- tral High School who seems to be constantly getting in trouble. His enemy, George Bigelow lPat Lancei, tries to frame Henry for a theft of band instruments. George also makes a bad situa- tion worse when he tells Mr. Bradley lRobb Schanzl, the prin- cipal, about pictures Henry was drawing in study hall. Henry then gets in trouble for cheating from George's history exam pa- per. But why did Henry cheat? Because his strong-willed moth- er iAmy Juraszekl told Henry he couldn't go to the dance that weekend it he didn't get the hightest score in the class on the exam. Henry is desperate to go to the dance and take Barbara Pearson lJenn Clementl, who is junior class president. While all of this turmoil is tak- ing place, Mr. Vecchitto fPat Turnerl is trying to find his daughter, Mr. Vecchitto is a junk dealer who received a letter from Mr. Bradley to come to the school to talk to him. But Vec- chitto is told to wait in another room and, since he is never sum- moned to speak with Mr. Brad- ley, ends up sleeping there over- night. Finally, the next morning, Mr. Bradley's secretary Miss Shea iAutumn Taylorl tells him his daughter has been called to the office, but we never do see his daughter because the wrong Mary has been called. Mary Wong lLisa Campolil enters the office only to find that she's not the person they were looking for! But, in the third act, all of Henry's problems begin to be solved. ln the first act, Henry 10 Fall Play had been accused of stealing the band instruments, and the instru- ments are found in a pawn shop under Henry's name. But who- ever pawned the instruments didn't get all of the money for them, they took merchandise, a second hand tuxedo. The tux- edo is found in a tailor shop be- ing altered to fit George Bige- low! The band director Miss Wheeler lKristen Heasleyl and police detective Ferguson iJohn Wicinasl also find that the signa- ture at the pawn shop doesn't match Henry's real signature. All fingers point to George, and Henry is off the hook, elxcept for convincing his mother to let him go to the dance and to get out of being sent to reform school be- cause he cheated. Assistant Prin- cipal Mr. Nelson iDave Wojciakl solves the problem by convinc- ing Mrs. Aldrich to allow Henry to go to the South Side Trade School so he can develop his tal- ent for drawing. Nelson also gets Mrs. Aldrich to lower her expec- tations of Henry a little bit so he is able to live his own life. So Henry and Barbara leave for the dance, and lhopefullyl live hap- pily ever after. Reaction to the play from the faculty adviser and cast mem- bers provides us with a more personal version rather than just our observations when viewing the play. Mr. Dwyer comment- ed, What a Life by Clifford Goldsmith is a joy to direct for the high school stage since stu- dent actors and technicians can identify with the characters who are from similar environments and who are experiencing simi- lar pressures of adolescent life. Our fall production of Mr. Gold- smith's play succeeded in pro- viding all who participated and all who attended the perfor- mance a genuine theatrical ex- perience which is the goal of the high school drama program, '- ' xfff WV , My--7i'v if V!

Spirit Week initiated the Stu- dent Council activities accompa- nying Homecoming. Through the course of the week, students were given an opportunity to wear attire that is sometimes not permitted. They showed their school spirit by wearing every- thing from football T-shirts to jams. The last day of Spirit Week, a candlelight pep assem- bly was held in the evening to help the football team prepare for the big game with Connells- ville.

Two hundred seventy-one cou- ples did just this on December 26 from 7 - 10:30 p.m. for the annual Sno-Ball. Sponsored by the Letterwinners, this annual holiday event was held as a fund raiser for various club projects. Decorated with traditional holiday colored streamers of red and green and multi-colored lights, the cafeteria was trans- formed into a winter wonder- land. The misty lights of a Christ- mas tree in the courtyard added an extra festive touch. A live group, The Band Elite, situated by what is normally the lunch line doors, provided the musical entertainment. Snacks and bev- erages were also included to stave off hunger until most cou- ples departed and visited vari- ous places for a late night snack. In the weeks prior to the cele- bration, the seniors elected Sno- Ball king and queen candidates. As the couples arrived, ballots were distributed and the final voting took place. At approxi- mately 9:30 p.m. the long await- ed results were announced. Cho- sen as king and queen were Traci Costantino and Lee Moffatt.

USh2fSi Debra Constantine, Tina De- Ushers: Nicholas Colinear, Ken Cardiff, Zorzi, Candie Day, Kendra Mathias, Jason Ribar, Michael Unnone, Steven Heather Carrick, Jenn Boch Marchand, Ron Wiesner r fl Tracey Topper and Lisa Petrak Throughout life we all meet hundreds of people in and out of school. Many of these people we have completely forgotten or perhaps we wish to forget. Many are still faces we see everyday but have very little to do with. A small select few however, we have close contact with on a dai- ly basis and would not want to live without them. These are our friends. Some are our best friends. However, not everyone can have friends forever. In fact, very few have friends more than a short time. People change as they growg their interests be- come different and their friend- ships dissolve leaving more memories. A few of Norwin's se- niors this year, though, not only have memories, but their friend- ships still remain as well. These friendships have lasted since perhaps before first grade. The lucky ones who are able to claim this are: Tracey Topper and Lisa Petrak, Paula Vorkapich and Heather Doyle, Matt Com- mon and Troy Funk, and Steph- anie Whalen and Cathy Mugnano. Tracey and Lisa first met at CCD before starting school. When the first nervous day of first grade began, Lisa recog- nized Tracey and decided to re- introduce herself. They've been friends ever since, Both believe that because of Lisa's friendli- ness, they got off to such a great start. The trust in each other is what has kept the friendship strong. The two often go to Hills to walk around or to Rax for dinner on Fridays just to get to- since eighth grade, Tracey and Lisa have made plans to get an apartment together until mar- riage. Whenever they're at the mall, they like to pick out things to decorate it with. Although they're uncertain if they'll attend the same college, it's definitely something they'd like to do. Meeting on the first day of kindergarten at Larimer Elemen- tary, Troy and Matt became friends sitting on the school bus together. Although separated in sixth grade, going to the same school and living only minutes away from each other has kept this friendship going for so many years. The two enjoy riding mo- torcycles together when they can find the time. Troy says, We like to go riding because Troy Funk and Matt Common gether and talk. This is especial- ly enjoyable because their class schedules keep them separated most of the day. One of Tra- cey's fondest memories is when we went to Slippery Rock without our parents for a week. We did all kinds of wild things and met a lot of fun peo- ple. It was just a great weekf, As for Lisa, she recalls their first night at Tingles. 'fWe danced a lot and met a bunch of people. It was probably so memorable be- cause we had always said, tWe have to go up to Tingles.' When we finally did, it was neat. Ever Heather Doyle and Paula Vorkapich you always find some new hill to climb or trail to follow and you shows up and it seems that I'm the only one of his friends that goes. Well I guess what I'm say- ing is that l'll go through any- thing to help him out and I know hefd probably do the same for me. Cathy and Stephanie met in kindergarten at Pennsylvania Avenue Elementary School. The two girls have a lot in common because they grew up together and go everywhere together. They really enjoy going out and having a good time socializing or shopping. Although the future is not quite certain, Cathy feels shefll probably move away while Stephanie may go to school af- ter graduating from Norwin, One thing though, they plan to remain friends far into the future. Paula and Heather met in kindergarten at Hartford Heights Elementary School. During the past thirteen years, theyfve been through everything from Brownies to the Senior Prom. Playing piano, tennis, and working at Kennywood in the summer are just a few of the things both girls enjoy. They also go to football games, the mall, the movies, and study calculus together in their spare time. Heather comments that, Paula and I have been friends since kindergarten and it won't end with high school. We plan to Stephanie Whalen and Cathy Mugnano can't really get tired of it. Al- though some things can easily break a good friendship, Matt tells us that, In fourth grade we were talking after school about wrestling and how to do a drop- kick, I tried to explain it. Then he tried one, broke his arm and didn't even cry. Every year around Matt's birthday, says Troy, we get a bad snowstorm and usually he has a little party for his family and a few friends, Well, every year his family room together at Penn State next year. Although not all of us have had our friends as long as these eight members of the Class of '88, certainly we each have one significant friendship thatfs just as special as this. Hopefully through class reunions and other get-togethers, this senior class will still have people who can claim being friends since first grade. Friends 21 Raisins Rock Grapevine To Win ho are those people on stage? The music is fa- miliar. Could they be doing the singing? Well, if you were confused, you shouldn't be.

Judged by students and teachers, the winners were announced the next day. Taking third place honors were Susan Lemack, Lori Glenn, and Lori Kolat for their version of Aretha Franklin's Respect The ever popular Pee-Wee Herman por- trayed by Robb Schanz was awarded second place for his version of i'Surfing Bird. Diane Coleman, Camille Gollock, Kris- tie LaVerde, Jen Schmidt, and Valerie Schneider captured first place.

Senior Kristie LaVerde, one of the winning rai- sins commented, It was fun be- cause of the crowd and the ex- citement that grew when we performed. The fun also lasted till the next day when people complimented our act. Amusing the crowd at the Lip Sync Contest, Robb Schanz transforms, once again, into Pee-Wee Herman to perform 'Surfing Bird.

If any of these brand names are familiar to you, you are aware of some of the hottest names in fashion. To some people, getting dressed means nothing more than covering the body. To oth- ers, clothing makes a strong statement concerning the identi- ty of the individual. Appropriate individual style is achieved when the signals you send out with your clothes are in sync with what you intend to express. Make no mistake about it, your clothes send out a message of individuality, rebellion, or con- formity. Norwin students are aware of this phenomenon and realize the implications. Fashion is one way to be rec- ognized. Often seen sporting shorts over his pants along with vibrant red high tops, sopho- more Dan Tomko can easily be noticed. Dan says he wears what he does, because I don't want to be a clone, and theylre what I want to wear. Trends are often a large part of fashion. This year's include back packs, friendship bracelets, cardigans, bulky sweaters, loaf- ers, boatshoes, and hightops. Girls' fashions reach extremes as seen in the mini skirts and long skirts of the season. Blue jeans are even reaching opposites with tai: - ' choices ranging from classic Le- vi's to colorful Guess?. Surfwear has also washed into the dry halls of Norwin with names like Jimmy Z, O'Neill, and Viarnet siding the waves. We look toward a style that accurately reflects our tastes and personality. The point is clothes can be informative, fun, and all your own. As Ryan Dun- lap says, I guess the main rea- son I wear the clothes I do is to be different. After a while, ev- eryone starts to look the same. I'm not saying that's bad, but it's just not mef' Casual can still be chic, as proven here by juniors Erin Dempsey, Dave Mi- zener and Jen Urbani.

Beginning the season with wins over East Alle- gheny, Baldwin, and Shaler. Norwin suffered its first defeat at the hands of Gateway. After leading for three quarters, the Gators throttled the Norwin of- fense and eventually went on to victory. Played under rather ad- verse conditions, the Pittsburgh Central Catholic team held the Knight's offense to 13 points, but Norwin prevailed. A win over Penn Hills followed as the decisive game with Woodland Hills, eventual AAAA East Champion, stalled the Norwin offensive machine. The Home- coming opponent, Connellsville, provided the team with it's next victory. Excitement reached a climatic point in the strategic game against McKeesport. After both teams had scored two touch- downs, the score was Norwin 20, McKeesport 21. An extra point would end the game in a tie and a possible Norwin playoff spot, however, the Knights went for the two point conversion. Af- ter the first attempt was nullified by a penalty against Norwin, they ran the play again execut- ing it successfully to win 22-21. Thus they clinched a playoff spot to 'ikeep the drive alivell' The game with Hempfield was won by Norwin by a score of 43- 30 to bring the regular season games to a close, overall, the Norwin record was 8-2. Not only were there special team accomplishments, but also individual recognition. Team captain Jay Murray rushed for 1315 yards to break the record of 1217 yards set in 1977. Steve Yaniga passed for 1125 yards.

Letters Deserve Fan 's ecognition most significant high school memory was expe- rienced by many seniors at the last home football game. On November 6, 1987, the Norwin- Hempfield game commenced with the annual senior recogni- tion night. Beneath the goal post, the football players anx- iously awaited their acknowled- gement from Dr. Surmacz. Fol- lowing the announcement of their names, the players sprinted across the field to greet their parents and coach. Dave Shar- baugh remarked, The feeling I had on senior recognition night was one of anticipated anxiety and accomplishment. Standing on the field, I had an overwhelm- ing feeling of great pride for my alma mater. The cheerleaders and parents were the next group to be acknowledged. Amy Pav- lik remembers, I was never aware how much senior recogni- tion night would mean to me. It was really a special part of my Belko echoed the sentiment of many seniors when she said, Senior recognition night gave me a feeling of pride and accom- plishment. I was proud to share that special moment with my parents who stood by me through the good times and bad times. Thanks, Mom and Dad. Many of the participants on the field November 6 were also members of the Letterwinners Club, a group designed for stu- dents who have earned letters. Sponsoring the annual holiday dance, the Sno-Ball was one of the major activities of the Letter- winners Club. Directed by Mr. Pellis, the group organized and handled arrangements for the dance. Another major part of the letterwinnerfs activitites was to raise funds through the pop machine profits to subsidize the cost of the Letterwinners, jack- ets. On a more personal note, if an athelete could not afford an item such as a knee brace, the club attempted to make certain the item was purchased. senior year because I was able to share the special event with my family and friends. Completing the ritual, the band members and their parents greeted the band staff with a humble hand shake or gratifying hug.

In the opening round, Norwinfs op- ponent was Mt. Lebanon. The game was played on astro-turf, a surface that should have benefit- ed Norwin's speedy running backs. But the artificial surface did not provide the added boost Norwin had desired. Mt. Lebanon scored early tak- ing a 14-O lead. But Norwin re- bounded before the half. On the third down, quarterback Steve Yaniga rolled out and hit Jay Murray streaking across the field. Murray took the reception into the end zone to complete a 55 yard pass play. Phil Arlia added the extra point to make it 14-7 at halftime. Receiving the second half kickoff, Steve Yan- iga scored from the 17 yard line on an option play after a 16 yard pass to Mike Liebdzinski and a 12 yard run by Ron Garofolo kept the drive alive. Arlia added the extra point tying the game at 14-14. The score remained tied until late in the third quarter when Mt. Lebanon scored to go ahead 21-14. ln the fourth quar- ter, Mr. Lebanon capitalized on two Norwin turnovers and scored again. The final score of 36-14 shortened Norwin's play- off appearances The members of the 1987 football team earned many awards and honors that were an- nounced after the regular season ended. The coaches of the East- ern Conference selected Randy Rovesti as Coach of the Year along with first team honors for cornerback Ron Garofolo, run- ning back Jay Murray, offensive lineman Dave Sharbaugh, quar- terback Steve Yaniga, and de- fensive lineman Greg Zitcovich. Honorable mention went to kick- er Phil Arlia, offensive lineman Mike Bachy, defensive end Brian Cuturilo, running back Matt Gray, and offensive lineman Chris Sullivan. Jay Murray, Chris Sullivan, and Steve Yaniga, were named to the Pittsburgh Press East All Star Team as offensive play- ers, and Greg Zitcovich was named to the defensive unit. Jay Murray was chosen as offensive player of the year. Jay Murray was also selected as part of the prestigious Fabu- lous 22 by the Pittsburgh Post- Gazettef' Murray finished the season as the school's all time leading rusher. Finally in a poll conducted by the Associated Press, Steve Yaniga was selected as a mem- ber ofthe second team All-State. Eluding Mt. Lebanon defenders dur- ing playoff action, Jay Murray demon- strates the skills that made him Norwin's all-time leading rusher. Jay Murray received third team All-State honors.

Coach Polczynski said, UI thought for so late in the season he fBarryl might have some trou- ble learning what we wanted ver- sus what he had learned to do at Belle Vernon, but he has fit in very nicely. Barry wasn't the only one who had to adjust. The varsity squad was continually battling for starting positions while maintaining a total team effort. Toward the end of the regular season a starting lineup had been established and strength was added from players off the bench. The improved play of the junior varsity throughout the season will also provide stability and experience for the future. An extra dimension in an al- ready exciting season was Steve Yaniga's success at breaking Norwinfs all-time scoring record of 1,338 points set by the 1982 graduate Rick Thomas. Yaniga ended the regular season with 1,488 points. He also expressed strong feelings about the bene- fits of basketball when he said, My three years of playing bas- ketball encouraged me to keep striving for the ambitions and goals that I had set out to attain, not only in basketball but also in life. It also taught me how to interact with others to reach a common goal. The playoffs began with im- pressive wins over Penn Hills and Butler. An overtime squeak- er over stubborn Uniontown propelled the team into the WPIAL finals. Norwin defeated talented Fox Chapel to capture the WPIAL title for the second time in three years. In state ac- tion, Norwin overcame former nemesis Meadville, but was elim- inated by Allderdice, Coach Polczynski's summary of this season's many memora- ble events typified the nature of the team. The success this group of kids has had and the amount of work they have put in to have that success tis memora- blel.

Agility and up- per body strength along with bal- ance and endurance are re- quired for today's wrestlers. Physical condition and diet are constants in the world of wres- tling. In the off-season, team members must jog, lift weights, or participate in other forms of exercise to maintain the proper physical condition. The 1987-88 version of Nor- win wrestling compiled a 61 per cent win record with an overall record of 11 wins and 7 losses. Of the total matches, each match was lost by an average of 8M points. Coach Floyd Marshall indicat- ed that just a few additional peo- ple could make the difference when he said, The only reason why we had seven losses was because of probably not having one additional individual in the upper weights. lf we would have had someone in the upper weights with a better than 50 per cent fthat is in record stand- ingsl, we wouldn't have lost to Hampton, Hempfield, Penn Trafford, and Penn Hills.

Last year the team won its first 11 games, establish- ing the second longest streak in Norwin history. The seniors on the squad, all letter-winners, were provided with steady expe- rience from previous years com- bined with playing time in the various summer leagues and tournaments. The infield was comprised of Mike Cymbor at first, Lee Mof- fatt at second, and Mike Leibd- zinski at shortstop. Playing to- gether for several years the infield had become alert to one another's strengths and weak- nesses thus capitalizing on fami- larity. Catcher Brian Cuturilo, Co-MVP in 1986, anchored the team at the plate maintaining stability for the battery. Center- fielder Ron Garofolo, previously recognized as a two-time all-sec- tion player roamed the outfield catching and preventing any long-ball hopes of the oppo- nents.

These students combined studies and fun through several academically oriented groups. Such activi- ties promoted and recognized academic achievement, plus, they added that extra dimension, interest. In addition, field trips and conferences acted as classrooms of the outside world allowing the students to utilize these experiences to further enhance their education. wywmdwfmwf' f ' i M 61 ealizing the value of high- er education, John Rod- gers donated funds to es- tablish a scholarship to be awarded annually to an out- standing Norwin senior. Criteria for this award includes financial need, extra-curricular activities, intellectual ability, moral integri- ty, and personality. After sever- al faculty votes and an oral pre- sentation, Amy Pavlik was selected as the 1988 Rodgers Scholarship recipient. During her high school years, Amy par- ticipated in the SOAR program and was a member of the Na- tional Honor Society, Math Club, and Spanish Club. Amy noted that the education she re- ceived at Norwin acted as a springboard for her choice of loftier aspirations. A three year letter-winner in cheerleading, Amy was one of this year's cheerleading captains. With her four year background in Span- ish, she plans to study Spanish and accounting at Grove City College. Amy hopes to build a career of uncommon dimensions in the business world. Prior to the Rodgers scholarship, Amy was the recipient of many other honors such as the Danforth 'LI Dare You Award, Slippery Rock Foreign Language Compe- tition award, and an English De- partment award. Amy re- marked, The most significant influence that helped me shape my life was my family. They taught me the basics of life, and these basics have enabled me to succeed in school and extra-cur- ricular activities. I am also in- debted to Norwin for granting me the opportunity to exercise these values. My senior year could be considered an ending, but for me, it's just the beginning to a whole new, exciting, and challenging world.

Aug PWM MERIT: Jim Patterson, Amy Juraszek, Jeff Lawson. fter twelve grueling years of struggling through re- search papers, final ex- ams, trigonometry, and chemis- try, everyone seems to have survived, however, some have accomplished over and above the average. As of the end of the 1986-1987 school year, the top ten students of the graduating class of 1988, appearing in de- scending order, were as follows: Amy Juraszek, Stacy Sydeski, Carol Babyak, Jeff Lawson, An- drea Mandella, Kristen Miller, Stacy David, Diane Hirst, Amy Pavlik, and Joseph Kauric. De- spite the ups and downs experi- enced by these academic stu- dents, they have come out on top. However, grades aren't all that make outstanding Norwin students. Amy Juraszek, Jeff Lawson, and Jim Patterson have been chosen as semi-finalists for the SAT f MNSQT awards. Earn- ing scores in the top one-half percent, they will compete in the finals for possible scholarships. As stated by Jeff Lawson, l feel that it is a great honor to be named a National Merit semi-fi- nalist, simply because it includes me in the select group of high school students recognized for their achievements. Perhaps the most important quality of this award is the fact that it does not simply evaluate your ability to take a test on one day, but it also includes your entire academic career and motivation as well. It is these qualities that l hope will advance me to the finalist cate- gory in the competitionf' An- drea Mandella, Diane Hirst, Me- lanie Prinkey, Cheryl Sullenberger, and Paula Vorka- pich became commended stu- dents after earning high scores giving them honorable mentions. Although the National Merit Scholarship winners will not be known until the spring of 1988, the competition began in the fall of 1986. Taking the PSAT's in October as a junior, merit award winners received recognition by scoring in the top half of 107o on the exam. Percentages are de- rived by taking two times the verbal score and adding that to the math. Commended students also earn high PSAT scores, however they do not compete for the National Merit Scholarship. 5 we i TOP TEN: Front Row: Stacey David, Andrea Mandella, Diane Hirst.

The awards mentioned here and many oth- ers are a tribute to Norwin's educational system and the am- bitious attitude of the students involved. Designed to recognize stu- dents who demonstrate leader- ship, school and community ser- vice, and awareness of the world situation, the Century III Leader- ship Program is more than a scholarship. The two state win- ners will have had an opportuni- ty to meet with peers and nation- al leaders to discuss the issues that America will face in the next century. Amy Juraszek was named Norwin's Century III rep- resentative after completing an application, writing a projection for innovative leadership, and taking a current events exam.

Heather Coiner was selected as Norwin's representative. Heather remarked, 'iWhen I wrote my speech, I centered on how unique our American cul- ture is. lt was difficult to avoid sounding as if I were giving a history lesson so I tried to use very few examples from history. I was very surprised when I heard that I had won, especially since I struggled my way through Mr. Polivka's class and was continuing the never-ending fight for points in Mrs. Coury's government class. I felt extreme- ly honored to have won this award, and I hope that my speech continues on in the competitionf' The Hugh O'Brian Youth Foundation Award is an honor which attempts to seek out and reward leadership potential in high school sophomores. As re- cipient of the HOBY award, Tim 64 Honor Society AII Work And Some Pay As Ron Kllnk of KDKA and Andrea Mandella listen, Stacy Sydeski accepts her Extra Effort Award, Gerwing, along with four other sophomores, was required to write three short essays in re- sponse to three questions issued by the HOBY foundation. These questions dealt with leadership ability, sensitivity and concern for others, and desire to learn. Interviews of all five participants followed. Tim was then notified that he had been selected as Norwin's representative for the statewide HOBY seminar June 3-5 where distinguished leaders of business, government, and education will discuss present and future issues with the students.

The Norwin chapter conduct- ed its annual induction ceremo- ny in late spring, students who had attained a 3.4 quality point average for four grading periods were eligible for membership. Members participated in the an- nual Homecoming activities, and displayed their charitable spirit for such events as the Wal- kathon for the March of Dimes. As a fund raising project, candy was sold.

The Atlantic-Pacific contest, a six test series of six problems each, was given in the library once a month, anyone interested was allowed to participate. Lo- cally, Norwin was a member of the Western Pennsylvania Math League, testing their knowledge against opposing high schools. Their section, was comprised of Greensburg-Salem, Serra Catho- lic, and Hempfield. Each of these schools was host to a WPML meet. Participants were divided into two teams from each high school and had to solve six problems in a given time limit. The winning team was determined by totaling the scores of the team members out of a possible 30 points, Norwin's A and B teams were both strong forces for the season leading their section. With preparations for the home meet completed, Paula Vorkapich and Kristin Miller relax before the rigorous test begins. Concentrating, calculating, and contemplating, members of Norwin's A team work hard to defeat their opponents.

Computer Talk It's Just Basic omputers have become an integral part of our every- day life. Computer appli- cations are evident on every lev- el - personal, business, and educational. Norvvin's students had an organization available for their convenience that hoped to promote a better understanding of the computer field. The Nor- win Apple Corps, an affiliate of Apple Computer Clubs Interna- tional, was open to all students. Directed by Mr. Sipe, this group boasts 40 enthusiastic computer fans. Greg Heckler, coordinator commented, We were very sur- prised and thankful for the tre- mendous turnout, During the year, meetings were held to better acquaint stu- dents with BASIC programming, Apple games, new products, telecommunications, and more. A club constitution was devised, a fund raiser was also conduct- ed. For the 1987 Open House, a program developed by former member Bill Blake aided parents in locating teachers and rooms.

Spain, A Tough Act To F01 ow n a chilly April morning five Norwin students, ac- companied by Mrs. Kress, departed from Pittsburgh for Spain. After a seven hour trans-Atlantic flight, the group disembarked in Madrid and was whisked off for a bus tour of the capital city. In Madrid, the Plaza Mayor, the Puerta del Sol and the Prado Museum were sites visited on the groups four day stay. An excursion to the pictur- esque city of Toledo was also included. After experiencing their first Spanish meals and customs, a bus to the center of Spain led them to the cities of Cordoba and Seville. There, the students visited the Giralda Tower, the Alcazar, and the Cathedral of Seville. The group also met fel- low American travellers in Seville. Their final destinaton on the nine day trip was Torremolinos, a seaside European vacation re- sort. The students spent their fi- nal day doing last minute shop- ping, resting or soaking up the rays on the Spanish beach. Throughout the school year, under the direction of Mrs. Do- bas and Mrs. Gillis, the Spanish Club continued a busy schedule. In October, the group traveled to Soldiers and Sailors Hall for a performance of Teatro Fla- menco Di Madridf' Sweatshirts, emblazoned with Spanish com- ments, were sold in November. In December club members per- 68 Spanish Club formed for seventh grade stu- dents and visited Whitehall The- ater to view El Norte. In February, a tour of Scaife Art Gallery allowed the students to view paintings by the artists of Spanish origin. Another trip to Whitehall Theater was made in March to view another Spanish film. In April, the members branched out and made the trip to Washington D.C. to the Na- tional Art Gallery. A competi- tion at Slippery Rock and Hu- manities Day activities started a fast paced April, capped by a dinner aboard the Gateway Clipper. With Spain Square in the back- ground, Jennifer Chervenik and Amy Pavlik pause during their hectic tour of Seville. 'im J .13 , .5 . ' .

Consisting of third and fourth year students, the club traveled to Bethel Park High School in November to see a play of Le Petit Princen per- formed in both English and French. ln December, several fourth year students visited the seventh grade gifted students at East and West, teaching them some very basic expressions and Christmas carols. The annual sweatshirt sale also occurred in December. This year's slogan was, Savoir-Faire ll le Faut. Members of the French club also journeyed to Briarcliff in Decem- ber to sing some favorite French carols, ln February, the French lV spent one morning in Oak- land's Scaife Gallery, and the af- ternoon at Station Square sam- pling pastries from Le Four Francais. In April, the French IV went to Washington, D.C. to see Smithsonian art exhibits, to the University of Pittsburgh, Greens- burg to compete in the annual Humanities Day, and finally to the Benedum Center to see Carmen to conclude the year. 70 French Club Picnlclng near Pont du Gard are Lisa Anerino, Jodi Frishof, Amy Juraszek, Beth Yerace, Larry Trenga, Robb 'S Schanz, and Heather Doyle with food iw purchased in a local market.

L While in Paris, the French stu- dents saw the usual sights such as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, Tuilerie Gardens, Place de Concord, the sight of the guillotines during the French Revolution, Napoleon's Arch of Triumph, and the Louvre muse- um, home of the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo. The group also spent one evening taking a boat tour of the Seine, and a walking tour of sections of Paris. Taking the metro fsubwayl several times, free afternoons were spent sightseeing and shopping. Contrary to what most expect- ed, the six francs to a dollar ex- s change did not make for many exceptional bargains. The final day in Paris ended on a sleeping train which took the travelers south to Avignon. The sleeping compartments were small- 9x9x7 space holding six people and all of their lugguage. After arriving in Avignon the afternoon was spent at Pont du Gard, an ancient Roman aque- duct.

The houses were mag- nificent along with all the rocky terrain and the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea. The people of southern France also differed from the Parisians for they were calmer, friendlier, and less hurried. While in Nice, the group went to Monaco lMonte Carlol, and Eze, a beautiful town on top of a mountain where there are fam- ous cactus gardens. This unique city can be reached only by walking. The group also visited a perfume factory. The day before Easter was spent traveling through the Ital- ian Alps on the way to Switzer- land. Ironically, in France, most of the French spoke English. ln Italy, however, it was necessary to speak French because the group did not speak Italian and the Italians did not speak En- glish. French was the only com- mon language bond. The last evening was spent walking through Geneva, a city in the French section of Switzer- land. The Swiss are much easier to understand because they speak at a slower pace. The group returned to the United States Easter Sunday. Some people often think that when the French students go to France, they go to eat, drink, and be merry. They did just that, but they also learned a great deal. One of the greatest feel- ings from the whole tip was probably the satisfaction of real- izing that they could understand French and be understood by the French. Amazingly, although they had a completely marvel- ous time, they learned a lot about the French culture and language that could never be taught in an American classroom. French Club 71 USAIR. 0 d World Charms Foreign Tra velers ast April 11 students from German III and IV traveled to Europe. Ten days were spent touring West Germany, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, and Austria. The students visited such sights as Castle Neusch- wanstein and Kbnigsee in West Germany, the Glockenspiel in Munich, and Plonlein in Rothen- burg. After experiencing the sights of ancient churches and castles with mystical qualities, the students visited Dachau, a German concentration camp from World War II. The stark realism and sadness of the camp helped students to reflect on the seriousness of this part of the trip. Carol Muentzer and Jen Schmidt said, This trip allowed us to sample a taste of foreign culture. They also said that one of their favorite spots of the trip was the visit to Hofbrauhaus in Munich, the hall where Hitler held many of his rallies. German Ill and IV students visited East and West to intro- duce seventh graders to a few words and phrases in German. In the fall, the students went to a Bach concert in Pittsburgh with Frau Chlodney, the adviser. .,., 9? . ,aweer ,M P-sb ww pai.-inf Gathering at the Lion Monument in Lucerne, Switzerland are German stu- dents, Scott Weiskircher, Jenny Schmidt, Diane Hirst, Carol Muentzer, and Mark Dziabiak. 72 German Club.

First year students take Art I which begins study with color charts and color wheels. Stu- dents use this knowledge to paint a collage of an area of per- sonal interest. Throughout the year, the students perfect their basic skills. The second year, Art II, is a bit more advanced, giving students an opportunity to build upon their knowledge from Art l. These students have a detailed drawing session at the beginning of the year, progressing to paint- ing with a choice of acrylic and oil paints. Finally is Art III. These students are free to ex- press their feelings and interests through their work provided it falls within their concentrated area. The Art III course is elevat- ed to a college level because of the expectations. Concluding their art study at Norwin, Art III students display their work in the gym as their final exam. The show consists of works from their concentrated areas, the breadth areas, retrospection lpast worksl, and justification pa- pers explaining topic choices. Instructor Alex Frendy hopes to advance the level of study at Norwin to a more modern level. Mr. Frendy would like his stu- dents to have as much freedom with their art work as possible so that their work may express their own feelings, hopes, aspira- tions, and dreams. He would also like the students to learn more about computer graphics while continuing with their con- centrated areas. Art Club, an extension of Art I, II, and III, is comprised of members of the sophomore, ju- nior, and senior classes. Activi- ties included a trip to the Cleve- land Museum of Art this fall. In the spring, the Art Club planned to raise funds to travel to Wash- ington, D.C. for the Strawberry Festival or to raise funds for a computer for the art department.

Presenting Life 's Challenges Gathering around for a better view, Mr. Dwyer's Public Speaking class looks on as Mike Ehman demonstrates his talent as a juggler. lammy hands, a sweaty brow, butterflies in one's stomach. If these symp- toms describe how one feels be- fore making a speech, Mr. Dwyer's Public Speaking class could be the help one needs to overcome nervousness. Mr. Dwyer stated, uStudents who take public speaking are given practical experience in using the four basic purposes for speaking before an audience. Also the stu- dents are given assignments that reflect actual speaking occas- sions that they more than likely will have to participate in them- selves sometime in the future. Psychologists have pro- claimed that speaking before groups of people is the number one fear of mankind. The world's most successful people have proclaimed that the secret of success is conquering that fear of speaking. Grades in Public Speaking are based, in part, upon eye contact, gestures, preparedness, and presentation of the speech. A semester in Mr. Dwyer's class can help to prepare one for many careers by teaching poise, organization, and many other characteristics that will not be forgotten in years to come.

October 30 marked the sev- enteenth annual World Affairs Institute, sponsored by the World Affairs Council of Pitts- burgh. Four juniors from Mr. Po- livka's history classes attended this affair held at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center. Lisa Campoli, Sandy Matthews, Beth Ross, and Pat Turner at- tended a day long seminar on U.S.- Soviet Relations. Escorted by Mr. Cornali, the students heard various panel speakers representing different perspectives on the topic, and later participated in student dis- cussion groups. The institute concluded with a banquet featur- ing key-note speaker Anatoly E. Davydov, a Soviet emigre. Mr. Davydov spoke on his life within the Soviet Union and his later defection to the United States. Lisa commented, The Insti- tute was truly one of the most interesting seminars I've been to. While I learned more about the Soviet government, philoso- phy, and culture, I gained better 76 Conferences understanding of the questions our nation should be addressing. This past October 29, Lisa Campoli, Amy Pavlik, and Me- gan Shrump attended the Seton Hill College Leadership Devel- opment Workshop. There they learned about leadership tech- niques, patterns, and roles. Along with girls from other schools in Westmoreland Coun- ty, they participated in a lecture workshop and an awards cere- mony. Megan Shrump added, I feel that l gained a better under- standing of myself and how easi- ly I handle new faces and situa- tions by attending this leadership workshop. Pennon staff members Heath- er Petrak, Nancy Morton, and Greg Heckler attended a four day conference at Lycoming College last August. Work ses- sions involved all aspects of yearbook production. The op- portunity to meet and talk with students involved in a school publication activity also allowed everyone to realize they were either fortunate or not in their own situation. As Pennon editor Heather Petrak remarked, The yearbook conference provided an extremely productive envi- ronment to learn and share in- formation.

Language, social studies, and science classes often have visit- ed museums and similar institu- tions to review art work or arti- facts. English classes traveled to plays or films. Business and con- sumer students have often used a trip to Pittsburgh to sharpen personal development skills. This past year was no exception. The SOAR trip for the Cultures of the World class was a typical example of learning beyond the classroom. The Cleveland Museum of Art holds a vast collection of art from all areas of the world and from many different time peri- ods. On October 29, Mr. Har- vath's Cultures of the World classes and the Art Club went to the museum: Cultures of the World went to see the museum's collection of Chinese, Japanese, and Egyptian artifacts, and the Art Club viewed any of the col- lections they chose. Special ex- hibits at the museum were the works of painter Georgia O'Keefe and the sculptures of Robert Arneson. Both groups brought bag lunches which were eaten in a classroom at the mu- seum, and leftovers made the two hour bus ride home more bearable!

A ma- jor part of Norwin, organizations have been formed to encourage participation and hopefully make the daily routine a little less tedious. Trying to accommodate various in- terests, special groups were united in their efforts to promote the goals of each distinc- tive club. The musically inclined joined band, chorus or orchestra. DECA and FBLA served the business aspects. The Knight Krier and Pennon satisfied the journalists. Regardless of the group, enthusiasm was the cornerstone. - mi 79 80 FBLA erforming a multitude of duties in the main office, library, and printing room, FBLA members proved to be an integral part of the daily routine. Collecting attendance sheets and delivering the daily bulletin were two very visible services provided by FBLA members. ln anticipation of the various com- petitions and spring banquet, this group sold football and bas- ketball programs and helped to operate the refreshment stand at basketball games. As another fund raiser, carnations were sold for Valentine's Day. Under the direction of Mrs. Linda Wat- koski, FBLA members partici- pated in a regional competition at Westmoreland County Com- munity College on February 22, where several members were se- lected to compete at the state level on April 27-29 at Seven Springs. Heather Austin, FBLA president, said, Future Busi- ness Leaders of America gives business students the opportuni- ty to develop leadership abilities and prepare for entry of ad- vancement within a business oc- cupation. It also gives business students a chance to compete regionally in subjects that they are good at. I also feel that it gives the students the confi- dence they need to make it in the business world.

Her name is Charlotta Eriksson, but everyone knew her better as Lotta. This lucky girl was the AFS foreign exchange student. I.otta's home town is Vaster- as, located about an hour away from Sweden's capital, Stock- holm. Lotta's family is consisted of father Elroy, mother Mari- anne, and older brother Rodger. Lotta says she misses Rodger the most. The two are very close and he is her idol. She misses their friendship along with her best friend, Tove. Obviously since the United States and Sweden are com- pletely different countries, Lotta has noticed several differences between the two. The biggest difference Lotta noticed was that things are bigger and cheap- er. She also noticed that, al- though both places have four distinct seasons, Swedish sum- mers are less humid, and Swed- ish winters are colder with more snow. Staying in the United States for eleven months, 18 year old Lotta is spending the year with the Blangero family. A part of Norwin's senior class, Lotta has also noticed differences in the American and Swedish school systems. Swedish schedules vary daily and each February stu- dents have a week off from school which is spent skiing and relaxing. Also the Swedes do not have elementary and junior high as we do. Instead, Swedish stu- dents attend a compulsory school, then an optional school similar to high school. They may then attend college. One familar American sight is the local McDonald's. In Swe- den, Lotta is a McDonald's em- ployee. However, Swedish Mc- Donald's do not serve breakfast or salads! Anyone who is friends with Lotta knows how easily the friendships develop. Lotta found this to be quite true, however, she also noticed American friendships are more casual. Returning to Sweden in the summer of 1988, Lotta will cer- tainly return home with many vivid memories of Norwin and the United States, leaving Nor- win students special memories of the year Lotta Eriksson came to stay. Lotta's comment reveals her fondness for this area and her ability to copy language pat- terns. There were five of us from my town in Sweden, Vas- teras, that were going to the United States as exchange stu- dents. Three got placed in Cali- fornia, one in Florida and where did I get placed? In Pittsburgh?? My expectations were low when I came here, but I discovered I couldn't have it better. Youns,' are the nicest, and Pittsburgh stole my heart at the very sec- ond I first saw it. This is the best year in my life. Love always, Lottaf' Each year, Norwin students may notice at least one unfamil- iar face walking through the halls. Sometimes that face is just one that has gone unnoticed for years. Sometimes, however, that face is one that, for the first time ever, is experiencing life in an American high school. Spon- soring foreign exchange stu- dents and giving them the op- portunity to experience the American culture is what the American Field Service is all about. One of the year's most impor- tant activities was sponsoring Lotta fCharlottal Eriksson from Sweden. Other activities throughout the 1987-1988 aca- demic year included forming a welcoming party at Heidi Pau- lus's home for Lotta to a winter weekend in February which gave other area exchange students an opportunity to spend a weekend with Norwin AFS members. Sev- eral different fund raisers were also planned so that the club could cover the costs of winter weekend and other gatherings.

These girls have spent endless hours during the sum- mer preparing for fall activities. Besides football games, the squad supported the soccer teams and created skits for pep assemblies. Homecoming activities, in- cluding the bonfire and pancake breakfast required the cheer- leader's time and effort. After riding in the parade and cheer- ing at the game, the day was culminated by the dance. With the start of basketball and wrestling season, the cheer- leaders moved their support and activities indoor. According to Mrs. Patterson, the summer camps and practices that this year's squad attended proved to be well worth the ef- fort, with eleven new cheer- leaders, the year is going well with the group.

Spyra-Gyra numbers, long time favorites of jazz enthusi- asts, were chosen once again for several selections.

An organization somewhat out of the spotlight, president David'Dinus commented, L'Or- chestra is a great way to appre- ciate and learn music but it doesn't get the attention it should.

Name someone who practices throughout the summer, after school, during school, at night, on Satur- day, someone who eats meals on buses, changes clothes on buses, and travels around in search of competition. Do you have an an- swer yet? This rare breed of dedicated, sacrificing individual is a member of the Norwin Marching Band. Long before any public appearance, lengthy hours of practice and prepara- tion have transpired setting the stage for a 12 minute perfor- mance that incorporates levels of sophistication noticed only by trained judges. This sort of repu- tation is not achieved without commitment and determination from many people including band members, staff members, and parents. Band director, L. J. Hancock stated, 'll am very proud of the accomplishments and dedication exhibited by the members of the band, not only during marching band season but throughout the year. Street Scene allows the members of the brass section an opportunity to dis- play marching finesse. The Norwin Marching Band opened the 1987.marching sea- son in late August with a pre- view show. The band began the competitive season with perfor- mances at McGuffey and Mc- Keesport, where the band cap- tured first place awards. The following week marked the an- nual Norwin Band Festival. The stiffer competition was faced at the Marching Band of America events. The Eastern Regional was held at WVU. Nor- win placed fourth out of thirty- nine bands. The second MBA competions took place in Tole- do, Ohio. The band received two special awards and also placed second overall. Coming to the closing of this year's marching season, the Pennsylva- nia Federation of Contest judges, was held at Latrobe. Winning the ninth consecutive PFCJ title, the Norwin band scored a 88.3, the highest score in Pennsylvania this season. The final competition was the long awaited MBA Grand National Championship held November 13 and 14th at the Silver Dome in Pontiac, Michigan. e-'MK MARCHING BAND: Front Row: Erin Murray, Cheryl Kemerer, Kelly Craycraft, Jeanette Perkowski, Michele Kustra, Dodi Raymer.

The year was essentially spent preparing for the year's two highlights, the Christmas Concert first semester, and the Spring Concert second semester. Another element of the Nor- win chorus is the Select Choir. Consisting of 25 to 30 students, this special group auditioned a year prior to membership. They then performed at places such as Briarcliff Pavillion, Monroe- ville Mall and Scull School. As part of the Christmas Concert, the Select Choir performed San- ta's Frosty Follies. With the theme An Evening in December, practicing began early in the semester for the Christmas concert. The Decem- ber 18 and 19 performances in- cluded solos and duets in the tra- ditional carols HO Little Town of BethIeham , Do You Hear What I Hear , and Little Drum- mer Boy. Select Choir and chorus member David Wojciak commented, This year's Christ- mas concert was very entertain- ing and enjoyable. The songs were livelier, the arrangement of songs was better, and the chore- ography of the entire chorus proved to break the monotony of a concert.

Senior Cheryl Sullenberger comment- ed, It took a lot of practicing and hard work, but it was fun. I really enjoy music in general, and I learned a lot through my experiences at school. With all the hard work, dedi- cation, and practicing, this year's chorus has been another success. Realizing this, Ms. O'Halek concluded, This year has been one full of surprises and hard work. I have enjoyed it fully. Working with students who really enjoy music and have such potential has been really reward- ing to me. I am looking forward to the future years where hope- fully the chorus will grow along with my knowledgef, All eyes are on chorus director Ms. O'Halek as she demonstrates hand movements as part of the choreography for the spring concert.

Health Careers f Leo orwin history in print is an enormous challenge, but one the Pennon staff con- quers each year. These dedicat- ed individuals labor diligently throughout the year to produce a permanent record of Norwin's successes and everyday routines. The Pennon faced a year of change, as editors Heather Pe- trak, Joslyn Winnie, and Greg Heckler, aided by adviser Mrs. Shrump, updated the publica- tion's format to comply with cur- rent journalistic standards. Fac- ing a year of change, the Pennon was revised to include feature articles, more detailed accounts of events, individual pictures of everyone, quoted material, and larger dominant Hactionn pho- tos. Pennon editor Heather Pe- trak remarked, This year we combined tradition with updated journalistic techniques. After at- tending the yearbook confer- ence, the decision was made to modernize the book. While drawing layouts, I had to re- member to use large dominant photos and tool lines and incor- porate scoreboards. ln the Peo- ple section, we added individual and junior pictures sophomore and feature articles to make the book more personal. All of our hard work really paid and experimenting off. I think Pennon '88 is the best ever! Other changes for the Pennon included the introduction of Yearbook Journalism l and Il classes, and the experimental class project of capturing school activities on videotape. The tape, scripted by second semes- ter classes, depicted everything from sophomore orientation and football practice, to commence- ment ceremonies of the senior class. The 1987-1988 Pennon staff began work in June, as plans for cover design and advertising campaigns were discussed. Jos- lyn Winnie, associate editor, said, This year's yearbook shows a new style, even on the cover. Welve started the pro- cess to change. The cover has been laminated for the first time. A theme was chosen and was carried throughout the book in copy and designf' Following an annual subscrip- tion drive in September, writers and editors alike strived to meet their first deadline in November as color pictures were needed at the printers.

Without wet sopho- mores buying elevator passes, without ex- hausted juniors carrying piles of books, without faculty members striving to teach as much as possible in the span of time known as a school year, without the people, Norwin would be just another building with empty classrooms.

These are some of the questions the senior class might be asking as they skim the pages of this book. Beginning its high school ca- reer as sophomores on August 27, 1985, the Class of 1988 boasted 596 students. At the start of the senior year, the group had diminished to 566 students, 296 boys and 270 girls. Many memories have been ac- cumulated throughout the past three years for the senior class. Seven members ot the Class of 1988 participated on the cham- pionship volleyball team for all three years, Twenty-five seniors have been three year honor stu- dents. A total of seventeen grad- uating seniors traveled to Eu- rope their junior year including eight French students, three Spanish students, and six Ger- man students. Tests, especially during the ju- nior year, were another large part of the road to graduation. In the fall of 1986, the Class of 1988 took the PSAT test. Out r Facts of a possible 80, the verbal mean was 42.4 while the math mean was 46.7, Taking the SAT's in April of 1987, the class averaged 434 verbal and 488 math out of a possible score of 800. As seniors, 88 attended the traditional senior class ski trip to Seven Springs. The class also or- dered over S10,000 in name cards and announcements, the greatest order ever received. Ending the year with graduation, 560 had ordered caps and gowns. Five hundred and seven- teen seniors also chose to be pic- tured in the senior section of the yearbook. Looking into the future, ap- proximately 6OL7o of this gradu- ating class plans on attending a two or four year college or uni- versity. Approximately 1502b of the class was expected to attend business, technical, or trade schools which may account for the class's 76 vo-tech students. Remembering what may be the greatest years of their lives, the seniors may someday look back on these days spent be- tween August 1985 and June 1988 and recall how the time evaporated so quickly.

Dawn Adams, Marina Griffiths, Terrie Kurp, Rox- anne Janiro, and Susan Le- mack participated in this six day program in prepa- ration for a successful year as leaders in student government. Nervous anticipation of the coming week left the girls wondering what was in store for them. What if my roommate is weird? could be heard, quickly fol- lowed by suggestions of a detour to the ocean. After a long trip in Kurp's van, the five found themselves greeted by their counselors for the week, who seemed to be just a little too happy. They were then assigned to one of five color groups and struggled to their dorm rooms at Mary Ethel Pew. Students from all over the state participated in this program, which quick- ly esculated into long days of workshops, meetings, and free time followed by long nights of dances, pizza parties, and other activities such as toga parties, mov- ies, a mock Dating Game, and a hilarious PASC version of The Newlywed Game. Also held that week were Junior Olympics consisting of 'AAI- most Anything Goes events such as amoeba races and the Russian dance. Color groups com- peted in a skit competition planned and rehearsed ear- lier in the week. These seniors will long remember many things about their week at Grove City, such as playing If You Love Me Baby . . . Smile and singing The Birdie Song at 8:00 A.M. But most of all, they will treasure the experience and memories, the tearful good-byes at Vespers, and the close friendships formed.

Well, since not everyone seems to be particularly fond of what is served at the cafeteria, the seniors were also asked what could be done to make the lunches more enjoyable.

The trip began with a twenty-four hour drive to the southern coast of Maine, where the car was taken by ferry to Grand Manan Island. Here, the group camped in tents for six days and took a boat trip to nearby Machias Is- land.

Finishing a long mentally exhausting school day, volleyball practice be- gan and it physically wore her out. Practice ended and Holly returned home only to discover 3 or 4 hours of homework to be done. This left no time for her house chores. Holly said, Maybe there is time for everything, but I per- sonally enjoy a relaxing sleep so I am refreshed in the morning. Life after school? No, only more school. Being involved in chorus and the school play, Cheryl Sullenberger was lucky if she spent one afternoon or evening at home a week. Her family usually eats din- ner together, but it was sometimes rushed. Her in- volvement in school activi- ties forced her parents or her sister to complete her chores. There were days when she barely spoke half a dozen words to her fam- ily, but even during the busiest schedules they found time to spend to- gether. Cheryl felt that overall, her family was sup- portive of her activites and very tolerant of her busy schedule. For the few negative as- pects of involvement in ac- tivities, there are many positive aspects. Activities are a great way of meeting people with the same inter- ests. They also create memories of the hardships and good times that will last long after graduation.

Unlike those taking the traditional Advanced Composition, where students strictly use pen and paper, Computer Aided Advanced Composi- tion gives students the op- portunity to enhance their writing skills with the help of the Milliken Word Pro- cessor Workshop. Following the Milliken Word Processor writing approach, students are giv- en three workdays at the computer to complete each composition. Instruct- ed by Mr. Zahratka and Mrs. Clark, this approach consists of three phases. In the first phase known as prewriting, students learn how to plan and organize their compositions. ln the second phase, writing, stu- dents actually compose 134 Class Of 1988 35-uw' K . C Kira their writing using the com- puter word processor. Fi- nally, in the third phase, post-writing, students re- vise and edit their work on the computer with teacher supervision. The end result is a neat, computer-printed composition. This change to Norwin's English curriculum seems to be a welcome one. Se- nior Kevin Miller feels, Computer Aided Ad- vanced Composition is much more valuable than other writing classes be- cause it is easier to com- pose using the word pro- cessor than using paper and pen. Similarly, Mr. Zahratka believes, Using the Milliken Word Proces- sor Workshop approach to writing has made the writ- ing process easier and more enjoyable. It has also much improved the writing of Norwin students.

Erika attended Keystone Girls' State which is a lead- ership seminar held every year at Shippensburg Uni- versity. This conference provided girls from Penn- sylvania who have com- pleted their junior year in high school to get together and learn more about our government and about pa- triotism. The Keystone Girls State is a mythical 51st state. This state is divided into cities and countries and the girls are given the opportunity to run for different public of- fices.

Every assignment has the following similar physical appearance: taupe paint that is often chipped, tall and slender shape, six vents at the top, six vents at the bottom, and a small handle just at the center. Each assign- ment is kept for a period of one school year. Every Norwin student has a lock- er, yet once opened, the differences become clearly evident. Each locker is like a per- sonal living quarters in school. Itls a place to gath- er, socialize, and keep coats, books, or whatever else. It is also a place to express a personal taste, say, Happy Birthday, or, Good Luck. The insides of a locker instantly introduce a per- son.

For psyching athletes and band members, lock- ers are also decorated just prior to competition. Blue and gold streamers and pa- per are the usual combina- tion for such occasions. So, once again the tradi- tion continues. No matter what decorates it inside or out, lockers are a direct re- flection of the owner and the owner's personality.

I also realize that whatever we do now will influence everyone in the world in the future. Dawn Metrisin In my opinion, the best part about being a senior is probably being able to relax and not worry if you are two min- utes late going into the next class. Anoth- er good thing is that you feel like you know everyone. Rich Pingree 'iThe best part about being a senior is the fact that I am at a crossroads of my life. I have culminated my public school- ing and am about to begin my private schooling and the rest of my life. Doug Patera The best part about being a senior is the rapport that exists between the teachers and the seniors. I feel closer to my superiors this year more than any other year I've been in school. It's so comforting to think I can talk with them about anything at all or joke around and they won't become angry. I believe it comes from maturity and earning the right to be treated as an adult. Stacy Sydeski The best part about being a senior is the freedom you have. Seniors have learned how to manipulate the system in such a way that they can go anywhere, do practically anything they want. Se- niors know who to avoid, who they can trust, and who doesn't care what they are doing outside the norm. Sophomores and juniors will learn eventually, but its 142 Class Of 1988 sort of a fringe benefit reserved for seniors. Kevin Miller The teachers treat you more like hu- man beings. We are treated on a more equal level with the teachers, unlike how the sophomores are treated. Diane Hirst 'The best part about being a senior is being able to look back on all of the trials and tribulations of our sophomore and junior years and laughing. It's great to see how far we've come from the first time we stepped into NHS. Everyone has changed so much. Amy Jurasjek Teachers seem to respect us alot more now because welre seniors, and that respect is necessary to be on a good one to one basis with our teachers and that helps our work.

Jeannine Morris The best part about being a senior is that we have the authority to do things to the juniors and sophomores, like sell- ij!

Frye, and Alison Slavishak find you must use the library sometimes also. major contributor to school performance is the development of consistent study habits formed by years of experimentation. Finding a place to study where the student is comfortable but not distracted is very necessary also. Every individual has his own method of getting the most out of study time. 'LWhen I study I usually review any notes that I have taken. Where I study de- pends on what it is that I'm studying, but I usually study somewhere quiet. But it's hard for me to study just one thing for a long period of time because I start to get very bored with it, 'I comments Cindy Schmotzer. Distractions at home are reasons for many to take the advantage of scheduling study halls. For ex- ample, Crissy Mols said, My study habits consist of around 43 minutes a day and occasion- ally some extra time at my house after school. I would rath- er do it all in a study hall because that way I could reassure myself of getting it done. At home, I often get distracted by the things around me because of not being in the right atmosphere. For some atmosphere isn't a prob- lem and adjusting is easy. I usu- ally study in my room for about 2 hours, but not one subject the whole time, I usually space them Cassandra Asbury Alex Augoustidis Richard Austin Susannah Baird Richard Ball Tracy Ballantyne Christa Balta Michael Barko Julie Bartok Kelly Barton all out, replied Alison Slavishak. Quality of time spent studying means more than quantity. Learning capacities vary from person to person. Only the indi- vidual can approximate the span of time needed to retain and comprehend the material. K.C. Frye declares, HI usually study in my room or any place where I can relax and be comfortable. I don't really study, I would call it reviewing. I spend anywhere from 2 to 4 hours on homework, but only a maximum of 2 hours reviewing for tests. To review for tests l just try to recall all the facts that were presented in class. If you are a good listener, this helps tremendously. But just recalling facts about a particular subject takes about an hour and a half. Study habits are very individ- ualized, they have been devel- oped and refined to suit a per- son's capabilities and personality. Class Of 1989 145 Dancing at Penn-Trafford High School, Christy Kaminski performs the jazz number, African Symphonyfl ver sitting around with nothing to do? To solve this dilemma, there's the age old tradition of finding something of interest, be- sides the television, and letting your creativity turn this into a hobby. A hobby can be almost any- thing one likes to do in his spare time. Activities can range from collecting stamps or teddy bears to researching a topic of curios- ity to simply trying something you've always wanted to do. It can develop into something of vast importance, possibly even a career. Taking dance classes adds a terrific change to my life. My fel- low dancers are the best and we have absolutely terrific times, says Christy Kaminski, junior, People may take up hobbies because they bring relaxation, friendships, knowledge, and en- joyment. My favorite part of summer is being able to go out on the greens and play golf. Of course, to get the full enjoyment out of it, one has to walk, re- marked Elizabeth Langley, junior. Others have interests like Car- rie Smith's. My special interest is skiing . . . I joined the Ski Club this year to get more experience and just to have an overall good time. No matter what you enjoy, there is some hobby that will suit you. Even if it is just something to do on those rainy day afternoons. Golf, dance lessons. A hobby can be almost anything as Carrie Smith, Eliza- beth Langley, and Christy Kaminski have discovered.

Why then, would most universities and colleges require juniors to take the SAT's on a wintery Saturday morning? The Scholastic Aptitude Test is an exam set up by the Ameri- can Testing Service. Colleges and Universities use these scores along with high school records to aid them in deciding which stu- dents to accept to the school. The test consists of six half hour sections dealing with English and Math. Sounds easy, doesnlt it? Not quite. Imagine analogies consisting of unknown words, finding antonyms to words that look Japanese, and reading paragraphs that are so technical and boring, nothing is compre- hended. Imagine a test full of geometry that was learned two years ago, and algebra or trigo- nometric problems never even seen before. Thatfs how the SAT's are for most juniors, or in other words, a nightmare. Most students hate the exam, and find it almost a waste of brain cells. Junior Shannon Riley believes, I'l'ie SAT's are unfair to students. l don't think eligibil- ity to a college should be deter- sa - F mined by one test. Agreeing, Laurie Waters states, L'The SAT's aren't a real fair way to tell if someone is qualified to go to college because a person can excel in so much more than what is on the test. However, Joe's A at one school may be equal to Sally's C at a school two miles away. Therefore, colleges do need a standard exam to judge general performance. Conne Way feels, The SAT's are useful in that they calculate the amount of common sense that we have gained through the yearf' Mike Javor concludes, The tests are a really good test to test one's ability. They question your abi- tilty in many areas. They will tell you whether a college is wise for you to attend. No matter how students feel about taking the SAT's on cold Saturday mornings, colleges probably won't change their re- quirements. When one considers everything, it really is the only way to judge millions of students. 1, 0: T 1 P I f V F gl in 'J Dawn Cowell ,-., . i T ' Raymond Crew :' ,K A T, .'..- Gretchen Critchfield - , 5 tt C -1 hl lv- r if 'a CO fl C OW i .

Dating is a fun way to meet people and to experience a special close- ness with another person. During high school years, dat- ing is an essential part of a teen- ager's life. HI like to go out be- cause I think it's a good way to get to know more about a cer- tain person. When I go out l like to go to the movies or. the mall and then pizza or something like that afterwards, said Donna Zimmerman. I think dating is a good way to really get to know a special person and discover their hidden qualities. We usually go out to dinner and then either the mall or the movies, commented Dawn Pribanic. Even though dating is a major part of high school life, too much emphasis is sometimes placed 150 Glass Qt 1989 on dating just one person for an V extended period of time. I think going out right now helps to make high school a little bit more fun. When you go out and meet a variety of people and make new friends. Some people put a little too much emphasis on dating just one person. This is high school, we should be free to go out with different people, suggested Cassie Askbury. However, sometimes prob- lems arise when the date is one parents dislike. This sometimes leads to household arguments and problems with sneaking out to see that special person. Or, parents can drive any teen in- sane when they completey adore a particular date that the child cannot stand. Constant nagging about, Oh he is such a nice boy. makes teens hate their date even more! Most people find dating an ex- citing and a enjoyable experien- ce.

Accompanying the freedom though, is the re- sponsibility to be a cautious, careful driver. When you're the first person in your circle of friends to be able to drive everyone in your crowd gains a little freedom also. You and your friends are able to go to the mall or movies without a parent providing the transportation. Also the latest person to pass his test is usually the one who wants to drive until the novelty of the idea ends. Since most adults realize the al- lure of driving loss of driving privileges is often used as a form of discipline too. Ron Wiesner said getting your license is that special free- dom that everyone looks for- ward to when they turn 16. Dan Tomko stated getting a license is a sign of maturity in that you have increased freedom but also increased responsibil- ity. The freedom your license gives you out-weighs any of the downfalls it could possibly bringf' says Jim Strong. Dave Wojciak and Tim Latta stated, Uthat a license makes a person more independent and alot more responsible. Michelle Moore says, 'AI think I have more trust and responsibility since I got my license. A drivers li- cense is one of the major thrills of getting older. says Lisa Cam- poli. Saundra Komarinski was quoted as saying My driver s license is important because I no longer have to depend on my parents for a ride. Every student looks forward to their 16th birthday just to re- ceive their license. Along with a license comes a major responsi- bility. For instance parents and friends put their trust in your driving ability and the safety of your driving skills. The only good driver is a safe driver. So to all of the high school drivers Drive safely and buckle up! Freedom and independence accom- pany the driver s license as Jim Strong and Dave Wojciak learn.

While left- ies are rarer, what makes someone left handed? The human brain is bifunc- tional. Each side has its own memory, and processes informa- tion received in a characteristic manner. The left brain, or the rational lobe, controls the right hand, while the right brain, called the intuitional lobe, con- trols the left hand. The right brain perceives time and space comprehensively, processing many thoughts and actions at the same time. This lobe specializes in abstractions. Emotions are also expressed through right brain activity. Ar- tistic and creative capabilities are believed to be located here. At one time it was considered a terrible fate to be left handed, with left handed children being forced to switch a natural ten- dency. Today, many g'lefties HSE USUN? 1 4 if f fs K r 2 X ,-,iw l l are proud of their uniqueness. As declared by junior John Wi- cinas, Through being left hand- ed, I am swayed to believe that I am more creative than many other people. Although John realizes advan- tages, he agrees with Jenny Black and Carrie Smith, in that there are other problems facing southpaws. Carrie comments, Sometimes, it's almost like be- ing handicapped! Of all the pet peeves present- ed, there are two prominent and obvious responses. Eating at a large table with right handed people, is the most dreaded situ- ation, while having to use right handed scissors also proves trau- matic. Lefties also complain of sore fingers, etc. At any rate, lefties seem will- ing to adapt to a right handed world. I eat and write left handed, but when I play ball or something, I use my right hand, comments Jenny Black.

Class rings were distributed to all who purchased them. The class rings have a blue stone, either facet- ted or smooth, with a gold or platinum band. The juniorls ini- tials or full names may be in- scribed on the inside of the ring while the year they graduated is on the outside. 162 Class of 1989 X Most juniors agree that the rings are very important and made them feel like part of the school. As Denise Stancovich commented, l feel class rings are very important to any high school student, since everyone will have many cherished mo- ments even though they may not know it yet. Class rings symbol- ize unity and similarity between classmates and are often used as a symbol of closeness between boyfriend and girlfriend, Denise Wagel feels that class rings are an important part of high school because after you graduate you'll have something to cherish and something to re- member the great times you had during high school. Obviously class rings are a very important part of the junior year and will always be a me- mento of our high school years. Symbol of junior status and Norwin, the class ring is a lasting remembrance of high school days. ditsf ..- . .- , Ax t : :.

SJ i l l x ll For many teenagers, including Kiliee Grimm, part time jobs at fast food estab- lishments are a reality. evouring greasy burgers, hot, salty fries, and cool, creamy milkshakes has become a major pastime in the United States. McDonald's, Bur- ger King, and Rax all play a big part in the lives of many Ameri- can teens. Not only are stom- achs affected by these major chains, but social lives are also affected. On any given week- end, thousands of teens can be found frequenting fast food restaurants. Because fast food restaurants give quick service, tasty food, and have informal dining rooms, teens enjoy spending Friday and Saturday evenings just socializ- ing and having a good time there. Football season is an es- pecially busy time. After Norwin football games McDonald s and Burger King be- come so crowded it is often nec- essary to park somewhere else and walk to one of the establish- ments. Kiliee Grimm who works at McDonald s said ld rather be somewhere else but we have lots of fun. Cheaper prices also lure teens into the fast food industry. Where else can they buy that much food already prepared for such a low price? Another role fast food places play in the lives of teens is em- ployment. lt seems that most restaurants in the area are com- pletely operated by teens after school in the summer and on weekends. They are convenient because they are close provide uniforms, pay minimum free wage, and don't demand experi- Kris Hensler commented, have alot of fun, but we to work hard before we have funf' Although the custom- ers are often nasty and the work sometimes tedious, having a job in a fast food restaurant real- ly has its benefits. Mark Sigmund said It may be rough at times but it keeps up the cashflow. Although the nutrition experts have warned us against eating fast food because of its low nutri- tional value and high fat content most teens find themselves con- stantly frequenting these places spending hundreds of dollars. Fast food is a part of America and here to stay! Sharon David- sons comment seems to echo the sentiment of most teens when she remarked If ou dont hang out at McDonalds you obviously don t hang out be- cause there have to be people to hang out with. ence. uwe have Jerome Wright Matthew Wyant Holly Yager John Yaremko Kim Yeskey -'-- f ,.., 1 . si., . . fr..

We are always hoping to make a good first impression on the peo- ple we meet. We also often pass judgement on the basis of the first impression someone has made on us, Realizing the subse- qent consequences of initial en- counters forces us to be aware and alert. Similarly, people also get im- pressisons of places such as Nor- win High School. Although often exaggerated, sophomores have some scary and vivid first im- pressions of the giant building full of seniors with elevator passes, juniors with wary direc- tions, and that monstrous gaping hole, the pool. Attempting to acquaint stu- dents with the building layout, sophomore orientation was held August 26. After welcome cheers and a band performance, the new students were intro- duced to class officers, student council officers, guidance coun- selors, and administrators. Stu- dent Council members then es- corted the sophomores through a tour of the building pointing out the sophomore wing and other common areas such as the cafeteria and gym. Anne Marie Acosta Kevin Albright Tiffany Alfer David Amantea I g Greg Arendas . . I The size and set-up of Norwin meant a lot of confusion on that first day in September. Michelle Leech recalls asking, Where am I? Melissa Ruffo thought, I'm going to get lost, I know it, even before the first day. Jenny Smurphat was able to sum it up by saying, lt was big. On the contrary, however, some sophomores had no prob- lem with the transition into the senior high. Saundra Komarinski discovered, i'It's easier to get around to classes than I thought it would be' Fortunately for Tara Louch, 'fthe school was smaller than I thought. Once the seniors run out of elevator passes and the juniors become completely disoriented with assignments, the sopho- mores realized the high school really was not as huge or scary as they first thought. Lora Paint- er realized, There's a lot of new people I get to meet . . . and become friends with! Better yet, Joe Shuber says, It's fine. It's a cool school, agrees Larry Pataraf' Responses concerning first impres- sions of Norwin High School prompt Lora Painter and Kim Moza to comment on new friends. if 'Q' ' Lewis Amicone f gy, M ' is tr - 5 I 3 L.

Whether it be for someone's birthday, to wish someone good luck, or even to congratulate friends, everyone seems to enjoy it. Band members, birthday peo- ple, and athletes seem to appre- ciate someone thinking about them, whether they are sur- prised or not. When l saw the blue and gold streamers as I walked down my vving, I was so surprised and happy because it got me excited for the big week- end ahead, stated Lisa Guthrie about decorations preceding the state finals. Many different forms of deco- rations appear in the halls of N.l'l.S., from favorite colors to traditional blue gl gold, home- made signs to store bought post- ers. By decorating, it's made known that something special is happening in that person's life. Shelby Ernette said of her deco- rated locker, I wasn't surprised because I knew who did it, but l thought it was nice. Class Of 1990 171 Michael Dunn Dennis Durmis Marc Durmis Robert Dye . .

When a favorite nail that has taken nearly a year to grow just the right length is eaten by the jaws of the type- writer? When the feeling of an ostrich wanting to stick its head in the sand is overwhelming while walking into a pep assem- bly? These are only a few of the daily dilemmas that we sopho- mores must face each year. It all starts the first week of school when the soph scumf' is put to the test. One major chal- lenge we must face right away is entering a classroom. Here, for the first time teachers talk from start to finish without stopping to take a breath, and we have to take notes on all of it. Debi Rug- geri said this about world cul- tures teacher Mr. I-Iarvath, Mr. Harvath, you talk way too slowg your tests are easyg your class is easyg you're fair. And there are those classes that seem to last forever. Tara Smith decided the worst criminal is biology and isaid, I hope we see a movie in 172 Class Of 1990 Zzvmd-KV I V , . W M' y if! HW WW I .' I , its 4 biology today instead of taking notesg I need a nap. The dreaded swimming class is yet another trauma to add to the list of sophomore life. Every student in the school has to go through it unless they are lucky enough to get a medical excuse. The general opinion of the girls is wrapped up in what Mary Mc- Dowell stated, I think it's ridicu- lous that we have only eight min- utes to do what takes most of us over or nearly an hour to do in the morning. Jay Wintergreen finished it off with a sincere ex- pression of hope that we all have had, I hope the green things in the shower die. I hope the heat- er breaks. How many nonpartici- pation days do I have left? I don't remember. I hope they clear out the slime and hair ball growth on the heaters. The next problem is the pep assembly. This statement from Tara Smith says it all. Walking into the first pep assembly was like walking into a lake of hungry piranhasf' What more can be said? Wet and frustrated, lost and confused, teased and has- sled, these are the daily dilem- mas of a sophomore. When these sophomores ultimately be- lam - asserts slit come seniors, they will look back and recall some of these daily problems. They will marvel at their ability to survive. -F - 1 in I J ' V These four, Tara Smith, Mary McDow- ell, Jay Wintergreen, and Debi Ruggeri converse about daily dilemmas.

Of all the popular hobbies and pastimes of students, shopping without a 2 , . nj , . Q, , 4 4' U if doubt ranks high among them. Whether one is shopping with a distinct purpose in mind or merely browsing through a mall, shopping holds endless possibili- ties for being with friends or just wasting time on a weekend! One can shop in a mall, in a shopping center, or in a city. There are endless opportunities of places to shop. Mall shopping seems to be the most popular with teenagers. Besides offering an endless vari- ety of stores, the mall gives a chance to meet people from oth- er school districts and to have fun without spending a lot of money. Sophomores Colleen Malkos and Jenny McCawley both enjoy mall shopping. Said Colleen, I go shopping at all the malls in the area.'! Jenny said she also shops at the differ- ent area malls. On the reasons for going to malls, Jenny saidfil go shopping usually just to spend money or buy something, but sometimes I go just for something to do with my friends. . Girls are not the only ones who spend time at the malls. Their male counterparts also en- joy the atmosphere and the op- portunity to browse. Walking through the mall and shopping can be tiring, and teenagers of- ten patronize the popular food courts, too. Being discovered as alterna- tives to mall shopping are the shops in Shadyside, and Oxford Centre in downtown Pittsburgh, there is l-lorne's, Kaufmann's, Saks Fifth Avenue, PolofRalph Lauren and many other stores to provide hours of shopping with- out ever seeing the same thing twice! But wherever one shops, whatever one shops for, and whomever one shops with, the most important thing is that one has fun while shopping. Cheryl Kaylor rf Qi:-afrwl' e fl! f 43 X f wif sf ' is Q . .

All profits made are geared towards the Class of 1990's extracurricu- lar activities, such as their Prom, Senior Fun Night, and Junior Banquet. The fundraiser got under way on Oct.27 when a sophomore assembly was held to inform the students of their key roles in the drive. Mr. Holt, the sophomore class adviser, issued a challenge, stating that any homeroom out- selling his could throw a pie in his face. Chris Stewart, class president, encouraged the mem- bers of the class to meet Mr. Holtls challenge by topping last year's totals. Finally, to offer even more incentive, Rich Al- berts from QSP introduced the magazine sale by giving a brief description of the magazines and the prizes to be awarded. Homeroom 404 with 31,261 and homeroom 103 with S868 accepted and met the challenge. Brian Reese from 404 and Ka- ren Carlson from 103 threw the pies. Brian Kosanovic I 1 M, M7 M , a.,41f1'lP,l3lN' . It was all done in fun, but that still didn't clear up my vi- sion for the next hour. l really didn't think Ild get a pie in the face, because I thought my homeroom would win again, Mr, Holt stated after. Karen Carlson topping the money-making charts with 3225.67 was quoted as saying, lt would've been impossible to sell all those magazines without my mom, because she took the forms to work and sold 75Wo of them.

Sophomores and teen- agers in general have enough problems growing up these days without the added burden of thick, heavy glasses and shiny, painful braces. However, it could be worse. Without the glasses, teens would stumble and kiss the dog instead of Joe or Jill. And, without those brac- es, ugly crooked teeth would drive away the opposite sex fast- er than liver and onions. Sophomores are well aware of the nasty names thrown at them by upperclassmen. The mere term sophomore, has a negative connotation. In addi- tion to being called sophomore, names such as four eyes, and train tracksu are frequently heard coming not only from up- - at 'C' 2,99 rr i we r perclassmen, but fellow sophomores. Trying to remember tomor- rows's assignment and the square root of two are burden enough. Who needs to remem- ber where they left their glasses? Certainly not a sophomore. However, Julie Davis believes, The worst thing about glasses is when you go into a warm room after being out in the cold and the glasses fog. Anyone who has ever had braces will also remember the pain involved every time the orthodontist tightens the braces or the daily occasion of cut gums and lips because the brackets are razor sharp. Certain foods such as gum, carmels, and corn-on-the- cob are forbidden for people with braces. All hope is not lost, though! There is some help to remedy these awful situations. Contact lenses! Once in, they can be ig- nored the rest of the day, except if they happen to pop out. Re- nee Removchik says the contact lense wearer's motto is, Oh my God! Don't move! Retainers too are less painful, less shiny, and teeth can actually be seen behind the thin wire of the re- tainer. But, as nothing is perfect, problems can arise. Renee also feels, If I have to look through one more garbage bin to find the retainer I threw away, I'll scream. Just like that joyous day in June marking the end of the sophomore year, a day does come leaving only a beautiful white smile. Although one may never be able to throw the glass- es away, contact lenses do help too!

JT' .Tw ' 6 tim We i nl-sit ouble-double, sometimes, double trouble. We're talking about twins, those amazing siblings born at the same time. Twins share traits and emotional bonds, have strange methods of communica- tion, and provide significant in- sights into human nature. There are 2.4 million sets of twins in the United States and 33,000 more are born each year. Identi- cal twins account for 1 in 250 births, with fraternal twins twice as common. Twins even have their own magazine and hold an- nual conventions and festivals. Being a twin has obvious ad- vantages, but drawbacks do ex- ist. One would be the nearly con- stant confusion of being mistaken as someone else. How- ever, twins have learned to cope and do truly cherish their special relationship. The class of 1990 includes four pairs of twins, Amy and Ja- son Brokenbeck, Pam and Pat Duffy, Brenda and Brigett Om- lor, and Chris and Ty Stewart. Pam and I are mirror image twins, says Pat Duffy. She,s right handed and Ilm left hand- ed. Once in a while we dress the 180 Class Of 1990 V I r ix if lll'yy5 'll J' 4? I , 1 1 r 1 f' same. It's a lot of fun being able to mix people up, Some of our teachers wouldn't even know if we switched seats. Brenda Omlor also enjoys confusing people. I like being a twin because I like to trick teach- ers and friends, she states. Being a twin is also always hav- ing a friend aroundf' Consider- ing the practical side of twin- hood, Brigette Omlor declares, 'iBrenda is always there when I need something. I can borrow things such as jewelry and clothesf' No, you're not seeing double. Bri- gette and Brenda Omlor and Pam and Pat Duffy are two of Norwin's four sets of sophomore twins. rin 1 ,ei - , .K :s. :- Q S 5 N iii ' - -as , 1. + ml ' i Q in G1 sl lg E E r 5- ll f i 5 if ,nil x as Q ' VKI' A iii , . gsgggg z I gk1,h fs i vt ,ff ---...Nz 1 S issi s ,l.- A .figs s -Q...-sm. 3 .

We are the sopho- mores who must take a required swimming course in water cold enough to make polar bears shiver, and in water with a chlo- rine content in a 20 to 1 ratio with the water itself. Eagerly anticipating Fridays, sopho- mores enjoy their free period. When asked what students like about swimming class Darcy Clear, Shelley Remai, and Terry Scheerschmidt all replied that the only good thing they could find in it is that, Fridays are free days. Joe Lash, on the oth- er hand decided that, lt,s easy to get a half decent grade in itfl Then we asked what the stu- dents clidn't like about the class. Darcy Clear and Joe Lash don't like to get their hair wet. Shelley Ramai said that, There is too much chlorine in the water. Terry Scheerschmidt said, He hates the eight to ten laps and the cold water. When asked how he feels about this yearfs swimming class- es, Mr. Forrester said, 'Swim- ming classes in high school are the same from year to year much like the students. There are students with poor ability who, as a result of intense desire and hard work make improve- ments beyond those who pos- sess improved skills but lack mo- tivation. These are the students that make teaching challenging and an enjoyable experience that it is. We 'NJ' si fi sg Qs 1 5 'S sg? gf Gs ,.e- 1 i F' r -if X li? ws 5 -3, . 'sa X if-F ' .

I think a lot of students have grown up since junior high and become more responsible with their studiesf' Liz Potanko Smaller lockers here labout three-fourth as smalli. Many more people here. Kris Gongaware I get home M hour earlier than last year. Brannon Lyons The biggest change is that the halls are more congested and it is harder to get to class on timef' John Ciuffoletti The biggest change is getting used to all the people. You're not with one group of kids all day, but different ones. At first it's hard, but it gets easierf' Mary Pat Auld The greatest change to me, from last year to this year is what they demand and expect of you. They demand you do more work and study harder and they expect you to be more grown up and not childish. Teachers go 184 Class Of 1990 A through different subjects faster because they expect you to be able to comprehend more and faster. Chris Feltes The amount of responsibility has increased and the people are more open to say what they feelfl Ed Catalina l'The high school gives you a lot more freedoms and activities and respects the students more, but is also very strict about rules and homework compared to ju- nior high. Dana Ed The greatest change I have noticed is that there is more pressure here than at junior high levels in school work and in mak- ing new friends. The lunches are betterf' Ousama El-Hillal The teachers don't treat us like kids anymore. They donlt check up on us anymore. They just tell you to do something and expect that you have it done. Jason Comer Junior high was a lot less se- rious, more relaxed. Up here there is no time to make a mis- take, so you always have to be working and no goofing offf' Jim Wiedl I have noticed the high school is much more free than junior high. The classes are bet- ter and more fun. You definitely have to be mature to handle high school life. Scott McCune The greatest change from ju- nior high to the senior high is the multitude of work. Last year's work seemed to be half of what this years is, plus the added pressure oflhaving seven sub- jects a day and being supposed to complete it all in one night, even though people have either a job or extracurricular activities after school. Scott Bertani Everyone has a greater sense of self-confidence and is happy about who they are. Krista Ruhe There's no more construc- tion going on here like there was at East. Missy Borgony The schoolwork in high school is a lot more difficult than in junior high. Chris Resnik You have a lot more home- work, and you have to do it or it could mean a lettergradef, Mike Bennett There are a lot more people here and I have to wake up a lot earlier. Gary Fry l'The people are nicer. The school is bigger. lt's easier to make friendsg there are not cer- tain groups of people to try to get into. Crista Gallinger The biggest change I've no- ticed was that the work got hard- er. You have more of a variety of classes. You have more responsibilitiesf' Jennifer Simica There isn't much of a change except getting up in the morning earlier and therels no clocks in the rooms. The teachers also get you out of the halls in the morn- ing more than last year. Brian Miklos The greatest change from ju- nior high to high school is the change in responsibility, The re- sponsibility definitely becomes greater in senior high and you have to be able to handle it if you want to accomplish anything here. Michelle Warnock There are more activities to join than there are at either of the junior highs. I also think stu- dents treat their grades more seriously. Robyn Lorince The biggest change from ju- nior high was having a hour long class 5th period. It wouldn't be bad if it were a study hall. Jill Dudas The greatest change from ju- nior high to senior high is the schoolwork. You can't get A's and B's anymore by barely just studying, or never doing your homework. Now it's like you're working hard for average grades. Christie Lach I think that the biggest change from junior high to se- nior high is the change in our social position. In junior high, we were the bosses. Now, in senior high, we are the youngest, so now we have to take orders from juniors and seniors. Mike Gibala The biggest change for me was trying to get used to the difficult classes. Kathy Corbett '4There are 4 lunch lines and you don't know which one to go to because none have the food on the menu. The cafeteria is so crowded you have to steal chairs from other tables everytime you get up because people steal your chair. This is a big changef' Todd Vandall The greatest change from ju- nior high to senior high is that I have a lot more work to do and it is much harder. The teachers demand more at the high school level too. Marci Bodner Coming from a small junior high, where you know all of the teachers and all of the students, to a large school where you see a new face everyday, was quite a change. I was too used to walk- Kerry Yacamelli - Jeffrey Yazwa Kenneth Youngerman What's The Biggest Change From Junior High To Senior High? ing through the halls with a group of friends, but now, not one person is in any two of my classes and I've had to get used to little socializing in the halls, and just get to my next class. Lisa Guthrie The biggest change was how fast the day goes. The teachers seem to understand us better. I also think, there are a lot more people who are nice. Lisa Zentner Lunch time is too short.

Dodi Raymer The greatest change from ju- nior high to high school is that there are no clocks in the rooms in senior high. There is a lot more people.

Devin Wintermyer The biggest change from ju- nior high to senior high for me is that the classes are a lot differ- ent. The teachers make us work a little harder and they donit col- lect homework as much as junior high. The subjects are also a lit- tle tougher than last year. Jeff Hollick Up at the junior high school the ninth graders were the lead- ers, but at the senior high we seem like the lowest forms of life. Regardless of being a sopho- more, I like it better here be- cause I know more people. Brian Bertani There are only two major differences between junior and senior high school. For example the homeroom period is a lot shorter in the senior high than that of the junior high, and there is no activity period at the end of the day. The second thing is that there are no clocks in the class- rooms at the senior high, but there are at the junior high.

More than two decades of constant oc- cupation and use forced school authorities to devise a plan for possible renovations of the high school. As the years pass, deteriora- tion occurs within all structures. The Norwin Board of School Di- rectors realized that due to the deterioration and some legisla- tion it was necessary to under- take an extensive program of building renovations. The reno- vation began almost three years ago with completion date of September 1988. Some renova- tions have been completed or are scheduled for every building in the Norwin School District with Junior High East receiving the most attention. At the high school, certain projects have already been com- pleted. In the gym, the divider doors were repaired along with the three air-handling units. The vinyl wall coverings and carpet- ing on the ramps were replaced. The student parking lot was re- surfaced, and the driveway around the building was sealed. Projections of future items to be included as part of the reno- vations involve moving the start- ing blocks to the deep end of the pool and repairing the locker room vents. Lockers are to be reconditioned also. The bleach- ers in the gym will also receive some much needed attention. The ceiling area of the cafeteria will be replaced also.

Hearing lions and hijenas outside your tent at night, If adventure and change of routine is what you're looking for, maybe a trip to Kenya, Africa would satisfy you. Pat Cummerick, a member of the Business Department, must have some thoughts of challenge and intrigue when she chose to spend three weeks in Africa. Miss Cummerick along with fourteen other people, the youn- gest who was 13 and the oldest in his 60's, travelled to Kenya from July 13 to August 2, 1987. Other members of the group were from California, Colorado, New York, Washington, and Wisconsin. These people made up a cross-section of typical ca- reers such as dentist, psychia- trist, veterinarian, and engineer to medical technologist, video and television producer, and owner of a chain of fine paper stores. Many months of planning and preparation preceded the depar- ture. Precautions such as vacci- nations for cholera and yellow fever, had to be taken, malaria pills were also a part of this pre- ventive program. The long flight 5392 i 55' win '149' from Greater Pittsburgh to New York, to Rome, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and finally Nairobi was worth it though according to Miss Cummerick. The sights and sounds of Ke- nya are a mystery to most of us. Miss Cummerick was able to wit- ness first hand horses galloping through herds of wildebeest and giraffe. Meeting a cobra as you take your horse for a morning walk is not an unusual occur- ance. Neither is hearing the slap- ping of a crocodile's tail as the hippos splash in the water. Living conditions were not ac- tually what one expects on vaca- tion either. Special joys were eating pies and bread baked over an open fire, stories and discussions about ecology and the environment were also trad- ed around the campfire. Miss Cummerick remarked that she tried to absorb as much of the land that stretched on forever with no telephones, electricity, newspapers, television, or radio. As a final comment, Miss Cummerick said, Travel, in general, broadens your world and expands your mind, but travel to Africa also let me see a world so totally different from mine that, given the chance, I would certainly return. ,, J 1. yi Yr G, ,.,,. , 4 i , 45 :WL 5 ,ggi ,. 6, y .ig fat ...Q .51 ll ,Q . 17 ' it 7 X 2 Ai 'lf if VU ff, is ..

If you taught over 25 years the previously mentioned figures might apply to you. The Pennon staff felt that anyone who had been a part of an edu- cational system for 25 years or more should be recognized. The staff also thought that these edu- cators could offer succinct and insightful comments concerning Norwin and education in gener- al. We were right. Mr. Jack Donnelly, English teacher, talked about the Nor- win of the past and future when he said, Twenty-six years ago Norwin Senior High, as we know it today, did not physically exist. While the student population was then only a third its current size, the school, nevertheless, had a disportionate impact on the area both athletically and ac- ademically. Academically, Nor- win was producing more merit scholars than any other school in Westmoreland County. Athleti- cally, under coach Rip Scherer the football team had completed its most successful season with 8 wins. Coach Lyman Stough's basketball team was led to the state finals by 6' 10 Big John Naponik. A solid base for a long tradition of Norwin success was being created during that time period. While I personally am proud to have been a part of this past era, I truly believe both the present and the future offer op- portunities for continued Norwin greatness. Hoping to stay in Norwin long enough to see his daughter teach here, Mr. Jerry Vernail, eco- W Ihr.

'I nomics teacher, remarked, Af- ter 25 years l26 as of 2f6f88l I'm still happy to come to Nor- win most mornings, and I'm not always happy to leave at 3:10. Teaching is still fun when I get to do it, and I teach free. The pay is for the paperwork. Itls a plesure to teach those who want to learn, and I can't teach those who won't llearnl. Norwin is a really good school and getting better, but l'm not sure I can take another fad in education. Athletically speaking, Mr. Henry Funk chose to comment on his experience in this area. He said, As athletic director, I feel our athletic program is an integral part of our over all edu- cational program here at Nor- win. Our athletes are taught to accept victory as well as defeat through competition that builds self discipline and character. Changes have occurred in the number of inter-scholastic sports we now have here at Norwin, particularly in the area of our girls' athletic program. Competi- tion has increased and sectional changes have occurred through- out the past 25 years. One thing, however, hasnlt changed and that is the type of athlete that graduates from our school. Our athletes are winners both on and off the field of play. This is a tribute to our total educational program here at Norwin and the caliber of our student body. Computer coordinator, War- ren Boyd, recalled past experi- ences from the classroom, when he commented, My years at Norwin have been very gratify- ing and diversified. The first fif- teen years in the classroom with the business students were great. I really enjoyed teaching and miss the personal contact with the students and faculty. For the last thirteen years, my main responsibility was perform- ing administrative work on com- puters. Norwin has always been a progressive school system, and I will always value the friend- ships developed over the years with the students, faculty, par- ents, and administration. Elementary supervisor, Neil Faust made long ranging com- ments covering many areas. Mr. Faust said, 'AAs a 1951 Califor- nia State Teachers College grad- uate, I came to North Hunting- don School District and was assigned to the newly built Hill- crest Elementary School. My in- tention at the time was to get a job close to home until drafted by the armed services. I was for- tunately never drafted and quickly grew roots in this school system nourished by excellent student body, parents who cared, and colleagues who knew that teaching is rewarding when accomplished with hard work. Needless to say I have seen many changes here since I came. Formost among those changes include: class sizes have been re- duced, elementary libraries have been added, full time administra- tors have become a reality, spe- cial programs now exist, new buildings have been built, and old buildings have been closed. Mr. Arthur Fauvie, assistant superintendent, offered overall comments. Mr. Fauvie re- marked, During my many years in the educational field I have seen many changes and cy- 1 H in 4 Q- W .ft is f Aff .,., , . tr .. 1 ' E ' 3145 g I ,,,. 2 .ji I . . Lrrk ..

Some cycles have gone full circle in that we are repeat- ing some policies and proce- dures under a different nomen- clature. My years in education have been most rewarding by observing the success achieved by former students. Another assistant superinten- dent, Mr. Charles Terbot said, My entire adult life following graduation from Indiana Univer- sity of Pennsylvania has been spent at Norwin, first as a teach- er and later as an administrator. Only the faces have changed, and all thirty-four years have been great. Mr. Charles Lauffer, superin- tendent, shared these thoughts with the staff. Mr. Lauffer re- marked, As I look back over the past thirty-five years of my educational life here at Norwin I can state that many, many changes have taken place in our educational system during that time, changes too numerous or too complex to mention here. However, self-discipline and learning to do what you have to do, when you have to do it, is an educational lesson that never changes, and I hope we have in- stilled this into our 1958 gradu- ates, as well as our students graduating in 1988. In other words, the welfare and concern to give our students the best education possible is one factor that never changes in an other- wise changing educational world, and hopefully, we have been able to do that here in the Norwin School District. As principal, Mr. Ronald Pe- duzzi, has had numerous oppor- tunities to witness the changes at Norwin and elsewhere. Mr. Pe- duzzi commented, I am cur- rently in my 31st year in educa- tion, 29 years have been with the Norwin School District. Needless to say, the 31 years as a teacher and administrator have grown beyond my imagina- tion. I have come in contact with many fine ladies and gentlemen who have become very success- ful in life. If I were to do it over again I would pursue the same course that brought me to Nor- win fNorth Huntingdonl back in 1957. The changes I have seen in my 31 years in education and in the society that surrounds young people has been dramat- ic. My goal as principal has al- ways been to provide the best educational opportunity avail- able to the students of Norwin Senior High School. Finally, Mrs. Esther Ridinger, school nurse, reserved her com- ments for her optimistic and pos- itive outlook of teenagers. Mrs. Ridinger said, Teenagers are my favorite people! In spite of the stresses imposed by society, I have found them to be loyal, caring, energetic, knowledge- able individuals with a great sense of humor. They invariably demonstrate a need for love and attention from their families and friends, as they intrepidly face the world of tomorrow. Innu- merable contributions to society have always come from this group, I have every confidence that they will continue to make the world better for themselves and their progeny. 3 .

Grades ten, eleven, and twelve comprise the Norwin Senior High School. The curriculum of the junior high school is designed to offer a broad education in fundamen- tals, together with exploration in art, business, home economics, humanities, industrial arts tech- nology, and music. These ex- ploratory opportunities are in- tended to open new fields of interest and to aid the students when they enter the senior high school. Credits earned in the ninth grade count toward graduation from senior high school and a total of 21.5 credits must be earned from grades nine through twelve, beginning with the graduating class of 1989. Escortlng a graduating class to the stadium, Dr. Leukhardt, along with other adminstrative personnel and department heads, provides one of the necessary as- pects of this noteworthy occasion. 'f 2 . mm , ll,-f -...W Q rf! it-W' ,it M234 '49 '+4-919 Some ninth grade subjects also satisfy entrance requirements to certain colleges and universities. Students may choose to spe- cialize by following one of the following five educational pro- grams: Business, College Prepa- ratory, Home Economics, lndus- trial Arts Technology, or Vocational - Technical. In addi- tion to the courses required within each of the five curricula, students choose electives from among 136 offerings, some of which are in the SOAR fgiftedi Program. Recent additions to the senior high school curriculum have been made in order to be up-to- date and to meet revised requir- ments by the Pennsylvania State Board of Education fChapter 5 - Curriculum Regulationsi. Classes which have been added are Yearbook Journalism, Graphic Arts, Business Math II, Shop Math ll, Adapted Physical Education, computer offerings fincluding Literacy, Program- ming, Business Applications, Computer Assisted Draftingl, Word Processing, musical instru- ment repertories, and Science of the Physical World. Beginning with the 1985-86 school year, students didn't have school on their minds but teach- ers did! Teachers were enrolled on Act 80 days in their choices from a variety of professional development topics. Their stud- ies ranged from stress manage- ment, child abuse, and genera- tion gaps to test-writing, instructional skills, and computers. ln addition to teachers up- grading their skills on Act 80 days, many departments met at other times to up-date their cur- ricula. Committees of teachers, counselors, nurses, administra- tors and parents developed nu- merous programs, including the state-mandated AIDS education courses which began in 1987-88. A Curriculum Council was formed this year, also. The Council considers curriculum proposals submitted by teach- ers, then makes recommenda- tions to the school board for the adoption of new courses which have the greatest potential for benefit to students. Membership on the Curriculum Council in- cludes all levels of the Norwin School District: administration, counseling, department chairs, faculty, and student body. The student representative this year was JoAnn Plecenik. is fri- in-r ff? Ulf' fwfr tr ,mv WW ,es-.www QU!- --4' Mrs. Alon: Redden - Trigonometry, Algebra ll, Ski Club Adviser.

Lunch money, rides to school, and late passes are not a prob- lem for some fortunate students, but they have certainly traded a certain amount of freedom in re- turn for convenience. Several members of the facul- ty, secretarial, and cafeteria staff have sons or daughters attend- ing Norwin, P.J. Ratesic and his mother, Micki Ratesic were sur- prised to find out how many sets of parents and children were in- volved in this situation. Most of the parents agreed that working at Norwin gave them the advantage of knowing first hand the routine and activi- ties of the high school. Lucille Bachy felt she had the advan- tage of seeing how the school system operated first hand. Mike felt there was a certain disadvan- tageg teachers were able to talk to his mother anytime if he did something wrong. Cecilia Page suggested that if you must talk to a teacher about your child, knowing that person makes this situation a little difficult. Mrs. Page said, I can also get to see all the people John talks about or is friends with. John Page liked the easy access to money and rides but added, One bad thing is that my mother knows everything I do. The Dudas family offered the same sugges- tions concerning available mon- ey and an awareness of what is going on, but Jill commented, My mother gets our report cards before we can make up good excuses. Bridget liked the idea of her mother working here and remarked, I like to show my friends who she is. She's great to have around if you need help with something or just need someone to talk to. Judi Mu- choney thinks working here might allow her daughter to be careless and sleep in because Tina knew her mother would be going to the high school anyway. Tina realized a certain disadvan- tage also when she said, I can't wear my motherfs clothes with- out her knowing because she will see me at lunchtime if she didn't see me leave in the morning. Missy Kallenborn thought of some different ideas concerning both children and parents at- tending and working at the same school. Missy remarked, I felt that some of my teachers treat- od me differently because they had known me since I was much younger. Sometimes my friends asked me to put in a good word with my father concerning grades. I think some of my teachers expected me to work harder because my dad is a teacher, Floyd Marshall and Rich Polc- zynski had a very unique situa- tion. Both of their sons also par- ticipated in a sport that they coached. Drew offered the famil- iar replies concerning money and rides. Mr. Polczynski said, It was nice being here to watch Drew grow and accept responsi- bility. On the other hand though, I'm sure he felt I was looking over his shoulders. This proba- bly gave him the feeling that he did not have as much freedom as other students. Mr. Marshall re- alized his presence must have been very trying for his children at times. He added, In particu- lar my son Sean has felt the greatest pressure because of his involvement in wrestling and the fact that l'm the coach. From my point of view, I will sincerely feel a tremendous void when my son graduates, I have enjoyed my children this close and don't real- ly look forward to when they're not around Norwin Senior High, All of the previously men- tioned students had only one parent to contend with at Nor- win. Megan Shrump had both parents here. Megan mentioned the advantages of money, passes, and rides. She added, I am a very reliable gopher for many of my teachers. But I must be on my best behavior and must be very sick before I'm al- lowed to stay home. My mother and I must plan our wardrobes many days in advance so repeat- ed outfits are not detected.

He also commented, Having three chil- dren go through Norwin High School with me gave me mixed feelings. The advantage of being in the building with them permit- ted me to observe both their educational and personal growth. I know for a fact l'll miss them very much. The Shrump children had to cope with both parents teaching at the same high school they attended. Bar- bara Shrump recalls, Our mornings have always been rath- er hectic due to the fact at one point as many as four people had to arrive at the same place at the same time. But, I would not have traded these times for any number of calm and quiet mornings. Situations involving other teachers and students cre- ated some unpleasant moments, but the pluses far outweigh the minuses. From a mother's view- point, I considered myself very fortunate to have had this extra time with my children. After June 4, Norwin High School will always seem rather empty to me. ,W ,f NJ -,W W, M., wr ,,,, fag ,,,, .E,, -fi ,X I : L V, A ,f L, I 'W-f I ,..

Faculty 195 er astonishing record of victories and success is a matter of public knowl- edge. Her won-loss total is often quoted along with a listing of ti- tles garnered. Her resume would be extremely impressive. But who is the person behind all the numbers? Just who is this phys. ed. teacher who encour- ages her students to be aware of their weight and to develop a fitness program? Who suggests that her students must adjust to her personality and work expec- tations? The woman behind the members and the record is Nor- win's volleyball coach, Sheron Watson. A Hempfield graduate, Sheron Watson, did not have the opportunity to compete as the female students of Norwin do. While attending Slippery Rock, Miss Watson tested her skills for a variety of sports. She chose volleyball because she liked the intensity and exactness. When Miss Watson came to Norwin in 1974, no one could have imag- ined what the future would bring for her or Norwin volleyball. She began building a program that is often challenged but rarely matched. Through 15 years, she has been able to motivate her players to submit to early morn- Presentlng Miss Watson with a com- memorative plaque, Cindy Frye, former Norwin volleyball player, represents a ing and long season and summer practices forsaking other inter- ests and friends. Convinced that sports are beneficial, Miss Wat- son said that she continues to devote so much time to the team because the girls are given an opportunity to prove they can set goals and attain them. Play- ing volleyball might also benefit the players in way of a summer volleyball-related job. An extra plus would be the chance of a scholarship meaning a player could graduate from college with little debt. When ques- tioned about the value of sports beyond the won-loss column, Miss Watson replied, Competi- tion can be good or bad, but there are two positive aspects of playing sports. The friendships that the players develop can not really be measured, and they learn to discipline themselves and expend energy productive- ly. When questioned as to why Norwin does not have a boys, volleyball team, she suggested that the sports' areas here might just be saturated. Allocation of gym time and space for prac- tices is difficult nowg the addition of another team would be nearly impossible. Recalling remarks from a Jan- uary volleyball reunion banquet only intensifies the sentiment that Sheron Watson has accom- plished many achievements be- yond the numbers and the re- cord. She has instilled skill and confidence in her players allow- ing them to apply the positive aspects of sports to other areas of their daily lives. As memories of scores and places fade, her players will be able to rely on the everyday lessons learned while a member of a championship team. unique group.

The cafeteria at Norwin is no excep- tion. Lunches have changed over the years from only one meal selection per day to soup and salad lines, a la carte lines, snack items, and even two or three selections on the regular lines. The volume of food neces- sary to operate a cafeteria of our size was monumental. Ac- cording to Mrs. Sheetz, cafeteria manager, approximately 1300- 1400 meals per day were pur- chased. In a month, 90 cases of snack items or 5400 bags or packages were sold. Ice cream was also popular with about 720 frozen items sold on a weekly basis. On a daily basis, 1600 car- tons of milk, 300 hot pretzels, 250 doubleburgers, and 250 servings of fruit were consumed. According to the general opin- ion of the cafeteria staff, Work- ing at the high school cafeteria is a real education. Everyday we learn something new from the students. There are so many dif- ferent personalities and some characters, too. It bothers us though when the kids refer to the food as junk. We do the best we can for 5.90 which is a far cry from some fast food establishmentsf' Cafeteria f Custoclians 191 Cafeteria fCustodians 197 ,, M ' fuppofiflf A F WMF 198 ww W ..

Few people discard yearbooks. Rather, they become possessive of them and take nostal- gic trips via the yearbook. The advertising pages serve as a history of the community. Ad pictures and copy can show the inn cars, current eating places, and favorite hangouts. The generous adver- tisers for the 1988 Pennon have subsidized the cost of the yearbook. But more impor- tantly, they have helped to preserve local history.
