Goldthwaite, Elsinger, Smith Ever since Paul Smith was young, he has dreamed of flying an airplane. It wasn’t until after a memorable exper- ience that he knew that he could achieve this goal. “It was right after my uncle received his pilot’s license and took me up, that | knew | was going to learn how to fly. | was 15 years old then,”’ Paul explained. Paul paid for his lessons with Basler’s Flight Service by working on his grand- mother’s farm during the summer. Paul’s hard work paid off in March, 4984, when he received his official pi- lot’s license. “I'm not exactly where the future will take me, but | might be interested in commercial flying,”’ he stated. This may be difficult, however, as Paul has a minor color perception problem. No matter what problems there may be, though, after logging more than 50 hours, Paul Smith is not about to give up his goal. Music plays an important part in Lin- da Elsinger’s life. In the sixth grade, Lin- da started playing the flute in the school band. She really enjoyed it and wanted to keep improving, so she began to take private lessons in the eighth grade. She also participated in the Solo and Ensemble Festivals. “Solo and Ensemble is a great grow- ing experience for me,’ stated Linda. This past year Linda participated in the Honor Band, a special band for high school students that is sponsored by the university. Through the Honor Band, Linda was recommended and accepted to go on the 1985 summer American Musical Am- bassadors European Tour. Linda and oth- er students will tour many countries in Europe and play in seven to fen con- certs while they are there. In the future Linda plans to continue playing her flute and someday she hopes to be a flute teacher. “If | can be half the teacher my teacher is, | will have accomplished a lot,’ concluded Linda. Jeff Faust has been on the football team for three years, and this year he was picked as defensive back for sec- ond team All-Conference. He was the only Junior picked from West. Jeff was also a member of the Varsity track team. His best events were the sprints and the long jump. He lettered as a freshman, and is planning to continue his running throughout high school and college. “| would like to receive a scholarship in track and go to Madison,” stated Jeff, who has been considering medical school. Jeff was a reporter and a writer on the Index staff, a member of the math team and student council, and has been on the wrestling and basketball teams. Traveling has always interested Ju- nior Ruth Goldthwaite. Already she has traveled to many states in our country and is now looking forward to visiting other countries through the American Field Service. (AFS) Germany is Ruth's first choice of coun- tries she would like to visit. She has taken four years of German and would like to use and further her ability to speak it. Even so, Ruth would go any- where just as long as she is able to go and experience another way of life. “Everything I've always wanted to do, | could do if | took a trip to another country.” Ruth's family is also interested in get- ting to know more about another cul- ture. They are all looking forward to hosting a foreign exchange student dur- ing the upcoming school year.
