The faculty and staff acted as many parts, feeding the blood, cleaning the metaphorical bacteria, and keeping the machine running smoothly. But none of this was possibleif it weren't for the nerve center, the administration. The administrators consisted of principal Joseph Adamo and assistant princi- pals Buel Robinson, Mar- lene Grueber, and LaFese Quinnonez. Quinnonez left her position in January. The district gave power to the principal to operate somewhat independently from the district ofhce and superintendent, especially in areas of personnel. Public relations was the principals primary responsi- biltiy, although actions of the staff and student body spoke for the school. ---Matt Jones O 11's a tough job but someone has to do it!

no ub titute for qualit A sub! Let's switch names. You be John and I'll be Mary, okay? This type of statement could be heard in elementary schools all over the country, but by high school, most students had given up playing pranks on substitute teachers. A sub usually caused one of two feelings: great joy or disap- pointment. Some students didn't like substitutes because they usually meant busywork and were not able to explain the material in the way the students were used to. Sr. Chris Trombly said, I think having subs takes away from your class. They always teach differently? However, there was one substitute who most students did not mind seeing walk into their classroom--Mr. Delmer Kinnett. Also known as the Candyman, Mr. Kinnett was known for handing out candy to all the students in the class Also, if a girl was wearing a dress or a guy was wearing a tie, or if anyone was left- handed, Mr. Kinnett would give him or her a pack of gum. Mr. Kinnett said, Sub- stituting is my hobby. I enjoy kids and being in the education game, especially at Overland. Another intesresting sub was Mr. Michael Beard, an actor who has appeared in several commercials. He brought in tapes of some of his commercials to show one class and sometimes he walked on his hands. Even though some substitutes took away from a class, most provided an unusual change of pace from regular class work. --Beth Schinn he Candy Man can! Ir. Lori Schleiger hel s herself to a piece of candy ogfered by substitute teacher Mr. Delmer Kinnett. Though he called substituting his hobby, he was well known for it. ar nyone? Anyone?

nfIeHPolnll C rudge matches To the left... no, no, more to the right... over, over... it's a strike! Well, it was for the science department, anyway. It all started with the volleyball games. The sci- ence department challenged the math department, and creamed them-twice! Then they moved on to bowling, and the same thing happened. On January 20, the science department's score of 4502 beat the math de artment's P 3929 and social studies' 3696. There was some contro- versy over the fairness of the match, because the science department put a league bowler, Arralea Shari, in Rand Hogarth's place. She had the second highest score of 181, topped only by Rich Anderson with a 203. Other awards included Most Injured, Rachel Forer and Susan Burrows with chipped fingemailsg Best Ambidexterous Bowler, Beth Bakerg and Best Back Spin Bowler, Waheed Butt.
