Table of Contents 1 §T7t htj. Harmony eludes us, so still we search The clock on the courthouse Strikes again and again. Yet, we scarcely hear the sound As it blends with the harmony Of our little world. Like the promise of the sunrise, The bridge to a new beginning Is waiting to be discovered. Sometimes we are afraid And drift back to our small world Where dreams are meant to be. Soon, challenged by our illusions, We realize we can’t live On dreams alone, And once again, we begin Our endless search for harmony. Opening 3 Sound... an effortless noise. Laughter... a song of friendship. Love... a bond between two who care. Music... an idea shared by a guitar and its strummer. Spirit... a peaking of emotions. Silence... a time to communicate with oneself. Worlds together, yet worlds apart. 6 Opening The earth’s clutter of sounds. When blended into one, Becomes a simple harmony. The echoes of being alone haunt us And awaken the rhythm of our hearts. We seek a friend, a partner, A passage into the world’s design. A place of peace where we each May create a melody of our own. Opening 7 ... School Life 8 School Life Divider With childhood illusions And the promised security of stuffed friends, We shared our deepest innocence. Yet, when Friday came We interrupted our serenity For purple and gold dreams. School Life Divider 9 We faced our senior year with enthusiasm, plans and yet — reluctance. For 11 long years we precociously chanted “I.U. or bust,” but as we approached that final countdown, our voices began to weaken. Out-numbered at pep sessions, we found strength as we united in “Super Senior Spirit.” We peaked to a new high in Ram loyalty as they fired through those purple streamers one last time. Our final appearance began with an early morning SAT caravan, and our stage was soon crowded with term papers, magazine sales, and decisions which would hold the key to the success of our performance. When the curtain was drawn on our high school years, we realized not even a senior book could hold our collage of memories. 10 Senior Opening A voice called for “all ballots to Room 117,” a drum beat its persistent “Defeat Senators” message, a streamered truck loudly and proudly declared, “Seniors are the best” — the sounds of more memories being made at PHS. But for four senior girls who vied for the title of 1982 Football Queen, this special day was one of smiles and silent hopes amid the homecoming clatter. With raw eggs in mouths, they proved their regal qualifications as they piggybacked atop blindfolded escorts through a crazy pep session obstacle course. When the Student Council motorized the Battle of the Classes, the candidates paraded in the midst of squealing tires and screaming students. From, pom-pons to roses, Queen Julie 12 Football Homecoming wears crown “straight to the top As the sound of “Ice Castles” decorated the final moments, they approached midfield with their uniformed escorts. From the press box the decision came down, and after the shrieking and clapping had to subsided, Queen Julie Warren took her royal walk to the throne with senior Mike Benham in attendance. Enchanting the gridiron court were princeesses Kim Harmon, Jill Elliott and Beth DeLong with escorts Jon Miley, Joe Meadows and Jon Babcock. With a cheerleader as queen and four Rams as escorts PHS had made homecoming a true “football affair.” Football Homecoming 13 We came as athletes, scholars, journalists and musicians, but with drama coach Debra Stroud’s skillful touch, we emerged as actors with0one thing in common — the stage. On an “enchanted evening” the PHS Drama Club and its passengers set sail on a cruise destined for the “South Pacific.” Against the backdrop of U.S. naval troops stationed on a tropical island in W.W.II, Ensign Nellie Forbush battled herself over “diplomatic difficulties” with French exile Emile de Becque. With no other answer in sight, Nellie washed the man she desperately loved off to another land. Meanwhile, lurking on a jungle island. Bloody Mary and conniving Luther Billis attempted to out swindle each other for a fast buck, while Bloody Mary’s “Bali Hai” incantations were designed to lure Joe Cable off to Happy Talk” with daughter, Liat. When confronted with the decision of marrying the person mom always wanted or the one they really loved, both Nellie and Joe were torn apart. Rejected by the women in their lives, Cable and de Becque ventured on a dangerous undercover mission for the navy. But the show must go on. From sailor suits to sequins, Nellie Forbush directed sailors and nurses in the Thanksgiving Day entertainment. Matt Bowen and Donna Bledsoe dazzled the stage with their chorus line performance, and Billis, complete with coconuts and a grass skirt, strutted his “stuff’ in the grand finale. The curtain closed on a bittersweet ending as young Joe Cable died for his country, and Emile came back to claim Nellie. But as traditional flowers were exchanged, the audience realized true love had been found — even if it was just between a group of high school students and their director. 14 South Pacific Cruise director charters cast for “Pacific” Ensign Nellie Forbush...........Kim Harmon Emile de Becque.................Marty Andry Bloody Mary.....................Kim Hopkins Julie Warren Lt.

Along with a few tips from football queen Julie Warren, the candidates found that helping one another with last minute preparations calmed their “butterflies.” At that magical moment when a dream became reality, Donna Busick majestically took her place on the throne to reign over the 1982 basketball season. Queen Donna and her princesses revived the old PHS tradition of choosing senior members of the basketball team to escort them. The Queen’s regal choice was Ram Ivan Denton, while princesses Sharon Wells, Oneita Delph, and Sghelda Smock chose Barry Kendall, Joe Meadows, and Allan King to perform the royal honors. 1 Queen Donna’s warm Donna Busick 1982 Basketball Queen 16 Basketball Homecoming An Oriental prom bids seniors “Sayonara 18 Prom With the wave of a Japanese fan, juniors bid seniors “Sayonara.” This oriental 1982 prom extravaganza came complete with chopsticks in a gym hidden behind a red and gold disguise. Promgoers entered the orient past scenes of sumo wrestlers and Japanese sunsets. (Below) Iggy, the revolving dragon which was created by artist Mary Richardson, watched over all. Sophomores offered their traditional respects with the “Slammy Awards.” (Far Left) Roasting the ultimate prep, “General Pledgehead Morris,” Gator Trudy Bushman proved to be too much to handle, while Susan Riley performed some scenes from that slammed on musical, “South Pacific.” (Lower Left) As Thuy Wells and friends performed the theme song “Sayonara,” junior class president Heidi White knew that the yearlong effort had been worth it. (Left) In the crowning event of the 1982 prom, King and Queen Allan King and Donna Busick shared the royal evening with Prince and Princess Scott Flick and Michelle Trinkle. 4 Prom 19 At PHS, learning is more than just books. We are taught to read between the lines. We are actors, artists, Nobel scientists. We challenge each other to become not Just numbers to be erased, but individuals Who hold the future in our hands. Academic Divider 23 Faculty Connie Bosley Home Economics Teresa Elliott Instrumental Music “U” keeps PHS smiling with lots of“TLC” Phillip Andry Math Susanne Crane Home Economics With a sense of humor number one on her list of a teacher’s many requirements, Mrs. Ruth Uyesugi certainly has that one all wrapped up. Affectionately called Mrs. U, she gives all she has to her students. Considered an outstanding teacher around PHS, Mrs. Uyesugi received state and national attention in 1982. She was named one of the six outstanding teachers in the state by the National Education Association. Twenty-five of her twenty-seven years at PHS have been spent as adviser to the Paolite. This way she can satisfy the “newspaper woman” in her and still teach. In the span of her teaching career, Mrs. Uyesugi has been nationally named Outstanding Journalism Teacher of the Year two years in a row. One of the founders of the Orange County Players, Mrs. Uyesugi admits, “Much of the teaching I do is drama oriented.” She feels that many students hide behind a mask, and acting is one way to shed it. The book Don’t Cry Chiisai is her personal prize as an author. Published five years ago, it depicts her life with husband Eddie. Explaining her philosophy of teaching, Mrs. Uyesugi says, “Kids want to know somebody cares about them, and I do.” That’s the biggest reason that we at PHS love “U”.

At 85 words per minute, Kara was always in demand at term paper time. (Below) Playing mechanical doctor, senior Bobbie Bostock helped a garden tractor recover in shop class. Using wrenches for scalpels, Dr. Bob soon got the tractor back on its feet. (Lower Right) Senior Vicki White learned that sewing was more than needles and thread with the aid of home ec teacher Susanne Crane. Working on her year-end project of completing an entire outfit, Vicki’s patience and dedication earned her the senior Home Economics Award on Class Night. Stuckwisch calculates cure for “mathophobia” 26 Academics “I want to eliminate students’ fear of mathematics.” This is the task that math teacher Tom Stuckwisch has undertaken. Since the words analysis, calculus, and trigonometry may frighten some students, Mr. Stuckwisch would like to change all that. Since his first year at PHS in 1974, he has tried to present a positive attitude about math to his students. Considering himself a sports buff, Mr. Stuckwisch often finds himself being referred to as “Coach”. Coach Stuckwisch played assistant coaching roles in the football program for two years, and he coached basketball for four years. With baseball the predominate sport in Coach Stuckwisch’s life, he has coached Paoli’s team for eight years and led the 1978, 1980, and 1982 teams to sectional victories. Mr. Stuckwisch chose a career in teaching because it is the only profession in which math, athletics, and young people are combined. As for his own teaching style, Mr. Stuckwisch says, “I try to talk with my students, not at them.” That is all it takes because “mathophobia” has decreased at PHS Performing with poise PHS orators speak Acting as hosts for both the Speech Contest and the third annual Rammy Awards, Cynthia Webb and the speech department had no trouble keeping busy. Whether in the classroom or out in public, PHS orators performed with ease and confidence. Focusing on school and community topics, the Speech II class produced four award winning documentaries. At the third annual Rammy Awards, Joe Meadows (Upper Right) claimed the title of Best Documentary with his production, “Paoli’s Volunteer Firemen: The Unsung Hero.” Tracey Guinn, a former Rammy winner, presented Joe with his award. Telling the story of the Future Farmer of America, Jimmy Wright won Best Supporting Documentary. A new and very special honor, the Dedication Award, was given by Mrs. Webb to Charlotte Bennett, who soon found that dedication meant more than finishing her projects on schedule. Adolf Hitler, alias Jim Wright (Lower Center), “chose” her as his official seamstress. 4 Masque and Gavel president Kim Harmon (Below) extended her thanks to Janice Turner, Academic Dean of Nor-thwood Institute. As guest speaker for the evening, Mrs. Turner relayed the importance of truthful journalism. Moving the speech contest up from March to November meant earlier preparation for the 110 students involved, but once again judges complimented PHS speakers for their versatility. Discussing preliminary instructions with Mrs. Webb (Far Lower Left) was judge Helen Atkinson. With her soft teddy, the voice of an innocent child, and a humerous monologue titled “How to Act After Being Sent to Your Room,” senior Julie Warren (Far Upper Left) was named runner-up of the Speech Contest. with versatility Academics 29 PHS administrators take time to care Teacher, soldier, admissions director, assistant principal, athletic director ... Principal James Babcock keeps climbing the ladder of success. His climb has sometimes taken him from Paoli, but roots run deep, and eight years ago Mr. Babcock began his current term as PHS principal. A Paoli High School graduate, Mr. Babcock wore the proud purple and gold of the Paoli athlete in two sports. Games played and classes attended in Stalcup hold special memories for many PHS grads, and Mr. Babcock is no exception. But a highlight of his educational career has been “moving across the tracks” from the school where he graduated and later taught to the present campus. With hard work and much determination Mr. Babcock has proudly witnessed PHS’s readmission into the North Central Association which accredits institutions of higher education. A firm believer in offering Paoli students the best education possible, Mr. Babcock himself was a superior student in high school. In recognition of his excellence, Mr. Babcock was named an Honorary Member of the Paoli National Honor Society. Although the job of principal often demands more time than a day has to offer, Mr. Babcock rarely misses an after school event. Whether it is timing official finishes at track meets (Upper Right) or annually presenting graduates at commencement exercises (Right), Mr. Babcock enjoys the daily interaction with the students. He explained, “Kids are what make my job en-30 Administration joyable. Every day is different.” Assistant principal Dale McNeely has explored a broad scope of career opportunities. This native Hoosier has created a respectable history of record breaking statistics which includes being the first coach to win three consecutive sectional championships at three different schools. A graduate of Scottsburg, Mr. McNeely has taught students at various Southern Indiana schools and has also had the experience of teaching on the college level. (Far Left) As an administrator, discipline and absenteeism are Mr. McNeely’s main responsibilities. Completing his eighth year as Paoli superintendent, Doctor Alva Sibbitt, Jr. has much to be proud of. A dream was realized when all elementary grades were consolidated on one campus upon the completion of the renovation of Throop School. Always looking ahead, Dr. Sibbitt sees a program for PHS’s gifted students in the future. Concern for PHS comes easily for this Paoli native. A graduate of “Stalcup on the hill,” Dr. Sibbitt feels his local roots have given him an extra sense of loyalty and commitment. But loyalty is not a new idea to this man as he received letters in three sports at Paoli and continued to excel in athletics at Hanover College. Carrying his love of sports into his early teaching career, Dr. Sibbitt got a taste of Mid-Southern competition from the sidelines when he coached basketball at Brownstown. When all roads led back to Paoli, Dr. Sibbitt assumed reign of PHS and has found his job of superintendent becomes more complex each year. Sometimes spending five nights a week at the school, Dr. Sibbitt also serves as the president of South Central Superintendents’ Association. (Below) Even a superintendent can’t dictate to Mother Nature. Dr. Sibbitt explained detailed semester test procedures for snow days to the students of PHS. Administration 31 32 Academics From Brazil to America, PHS exchange student Luciano Goncalves (Center) sometimes found the communication barrier a problem. But when time for dissecting rats in biology came, Luciano and his PHS friends had the same verbal reaction — “yuck!” With six years of English and an intended major in the language, he followed in his brother’s footsteps with a tour and four month stay in the United States. (Above) As one of the Indian Summer delegates, Mr. 00 Gin Jun of Malaysia gave U.S. history classes a comparison in the countries’ life styles. (Right) Representing Paoli in the National Hoosier Auto Contest was junior Holly Hall. The second PHS artist to capture first place honors, she was awarded a savings bond of $125. From woodworking to playing the tuba, David Jones, (Left) woods and drafting teacher, is a master of the arts. For 11 years Mr. Jones has used his building talents to help students understand the challenge of construction. If something must be repaired or built, the shop area comes to the rescue. Prom bridges have been a traditional junior challenge for the last seven years. “It gives students confidence in their projects when school organizations ask for their talent,” commented Mr. Jones. Personal projects have ranged from a grandfather clock to the whole remodeling of his home. A member of the Martinsville, Indiana, Live Steamers, Mr. Jones is building half of a train — not a choo-choo, but one which soon will be able to transport riders for entertainment. Some of Mr. Jones’ students have even gotten involved by helping build the tracks. Traveling on tour from New York to Dallas, Mr. Jones is a member of the “Forty Eight” band in which he plays the tuba. He also directs a choir at Danville. Finding harmony in both the grinding of saws and the soothing notes of music, Mr. Jones is in tune with himself and the world around him. Craftsman Jones creates harmony in his world Academics 33 Math computer wiz Andry brings future to PHS unmm Go sub, go to, retrieve ... This might sound like a foreign language to most PHS people. But to math instructor Phillip Andry they hold great significance because they are all code words on the Apple II computers in Room 106. Believing that a strong background in math will help in any occupation, Mr. Andry feels this instruction will give PHS grads a definite advantage at college. Founder and sponsor of the Math and Physics Club, Mr. Andry uses meeting time to help club members explore mathematical relationships. Mr. Andry’s face has become familiar to sports fans. In his ten years at PHS, Mr. Andry has put to use his math background by selling tickets at basketball and football games. (Right) Proving his Ram loyalty at a b-ball pep session, Mr. Andry is also a good sport. When not educating PHS students, Mr. Andry spends time on his farm which is “a nice place to raise children.” A handy man, Mr. Andry also repairs small machinery and equipment. Despite an already hectic schedule, Mr. Andry has found yet another calling. As the minister of the Concord Church for the past eight years, Mr. Andry finds teaching and preaching alike. His reward is the help he gives to others. 34 Academics Hovering over a predominately male staff, Paolite editor-in-chief Norma Love (Left) managed to bring a little femininity to the journalism room by painting desks and benches baby blue. The purchase of a professional light table provided an office-like atmosphere for Norma as she pasted lay-outs and wrote stories all year long. Her efforts earned her the title Best Reporter for the Bedford-Times Mail. (Lower Left) Providing information for 800 students may be a large task, but for Counselor Jerry Stroud they’re all in the family. Classroom sessions give students a chance to inquire about things that only a PHS counselor can bring light to. (Below) From learning how to change a car tire to potting a terrarium, speech students learned the facts of life. Junior Beverly Dotson mixed a green thumb with purple and gold junior pride. Academics 35 No matter what errand or problem sent students to the office, they were always greeted with the smiling, friendly face of Sue Williams. In her 11 years at PHS, Sue has mastered the art of answering the phone, running off papers, selling tickets, and directing office traffic at the same time. A longtime Ram backer, Sue’s sponsorship of the Booster Club added some real spirit to the 1982 sports season. School dances may have been fun for the students and made money for the clubs, but for Jane Barnett they meant one more trip to the safe with those ever present money boxes. A secretary to the principal for 14 years, she has handled so many invoices, bills, purchase orders, and checks that “when Jane Barnett speaks, people listen.” Endless effort makes PHS tick like clockwork 36 Secretaries Although concession sales at ballgames brought joy to the juniors, the mess left behind brought backaches to the custodians of PHS. Busy cleaning up the candy wrappers and coke cups were First Row, Left to Right: Joyce Pemberton, John Gilliatt, Russell Ferguson. Second Row: Head Custodian Elmo Perkins, Harley Shinkle, Russell Carwile. Not Pictured: Gene Elliott. Much of the work PHS secretaries do cannot be filed in a specific drawer. Taking care of people around PHS were Left to Right: Marilyn Doan, Joanne Apple, Jane Barnett, Olive Guernsey, Dorothy Babcock, Sue Williams. No matter how many times students asked, “How many tater tots do I get?”, there was always a patient face behind the lunch counter waiting to answer. PHS cooks and cashiers were First Row, Left to Right: Supervisor Geneva Lankford, Norma Jean Spear, Delores Stroud, Helen Mills, Frances McClintock. Second Row: Ethel Hollen, Gertrude Rieck, Shirly Rutherford, Head Cook Bonnie Milligan, Ruth Barnes, Betty Owens, Paula Key, Martha Elliott. Custodians, Cooks 37 ... Seniors 38 Senior Divider Unashamed, we showed our enthusiasm And ignited even our instructors’ spirit. While some impatiently looked forward, Others found that first step frightening. Bravely, we broke our twelve year bond and set out to challenge the unknown. Senior Diuider 39 Jon Babcock and Steven Radcliffe (Above) realized that leadership meant times of harmonizing as they assured their classmates in Ruth Uyesugi’s 1982 senior play production that they would never have to “walk alone.” Valedictorian Jon Babcock found meeting new people enjoyable. With a full schedule of athletic and science events, he did just that. A three-year member of Varsity Club, Jon played football and baseball all four years and captained the gridders his senior year. (Upper Right) Although practices were often hot and games were sometimes too long, Jon still maintained a grade point average of 11.062, the highest in the class. This achievement earned him the Athletic Scholarship Award each of his high school years. Devoting much time to study, Jon competed just as strongly academically as he did athletically. The local DAR winner, Jon was both a four-year Outstanding Student and Honor Student. Chosen to represent Paoli at Boys’ State his junior year, Jon was also honored with the “I Dare You” Award. Leadership is a role Jon seemed destined for (Right) as he ended his final year as class president, Honor Society president, and president of Science Club. 40 Valedictorian Salutatorian Steven Radcliffe may seem the quiet intellectual, yet he’s much more. With a strong attraction toward the piano, (Left) Steven has brought home first place ratings at state competitions for the past four years. In competition with 25 other young pianists, Steven captured the overall rating for the MacDowell Music Scholarship Auditions his senior year. Playing since he was ten years old, Steven made strong demands of himself which required a lot of time and patience. Earning government and economics credits through correspondence made possible his five hours a day practice sessions. Steven didn’t just limit his musical talent to the keyboards as he was a four-year member of band where he played the baritone. Because of his outstanding achievement and interest in band, Steven was awarded the John Philip Sousa Award his final year. Although music “plays” a large part in Steven’s future, he also finds pleasure in creative photography and often free-lanced for the Hillcrest. Despite his demanding schedule, Band Captain Steven made time for French and Math and Physics Clubs. Ending his four years with a final grade point average of 10.899, Steven was a three-year Honor Society member and Outstanding Student, and a four-year Honor Student.

His childhood vision of attending a military academy is now a reality as Meadows heads for West Point. After four years of Ram gridiron play, Joe hopes to give kicking a shot at the academy. However, Joe’s talents are not limited to the football field. His speech awards are numerous. As a junior, Joe was runner-up in the speech contest, where he displayed his military bearing in a powerful oratorical by General George S. Patton. Another side of Joe was revealed in this year’s competition. His humorous monologue, “Romeo and Juliet in the Manner of Andy Griffith,” earned him the top spot in the ’81-’82 speech contest. Through his dynamic and original presentation of the “Virtues of Thomas Jefferson,” he was named state champion in the Sons of American Revolution Speech Contest and represented Indiana in the nationals in Oklahoma City. Perhaps a foreshadowing of his military appointment, Joe portrayed Lt. Joseph Cable in this year’s production of “South Pacific.” As his PHS career closed, Meadows was ready and willing for the life of a cadet.

Jimmy received many honors and held many offices throughout his four years of FFA and has become a “known name.” He served as president of Paoli’s chapter his junior year and was a member of the State FFA Executive Committee his senior year. This honor was shared only by 26 other students in the state of Indiana. Using his speech training, Jimmy was also the Indiana representative to the National FFA Convention. Paoli is respected for its participation in FFA and has the largest chapter in the state. With dedicated students such as Jimmy Wright, it will continue to be a school to contend with at the state and national levels.

Seniors 59 A slice of Paoli High School history was served to the community when senior literature students presented “To Miss Maris With Love.” A “U Production,” the show was a salute to Miss Anna Jane Maris, who reigned as principal and teacher at PHS for 23 years. The old school on the hill was reborn as the actors made a journey back into time to “graduate” with the class of 1935. The crumbling sun dial and stone bench came alive again, and the hundreds who came to view the resurrection took a nostalgic walk through an arch, on which the Latin words — “Light and Truth” — were etched. “Don’t pick the tulips,” “Vandals, Vandals!,” and “Keep your bodies inviolate” were the battle cries of Principal Maris. The Quaker religion was her life, and an unorthodox staging device introduced a living portrait of the Quaker founder, George Fox. Even though younger members of the audience did not know Miss Maris, she easily became a symbol of all teachers revered by their students. And for alumni who played a role in the Miss Maris saga, the almost-true story brought back a joyous reunion with the past. 1982 grads leave legacy of simple harmony to 62 Graduation 1982 We, the class of 1982, have come a long way within the halls of PHS. We were 109 individuals, yet together we’ve sat in classes for hundreds of hours, worked hundreds of assignments, cheered hundreds of cheers, but it seems like just yesterday when we first walked through the doors of PHS. Since then we’ve learned a life of love and concern for others. We’ve watched friends we’ve known from junior high emerge as mature, intelligent individuals. We’ve even gotten more competent ourselves. Things don’t scare us as easily now. The nightmares that haunted us in our early adolescent years are now gone, replaced by a darkness that is somehow more chilling. The darkness is the future. We’ll be on our own, without even our closest friends to make us feel accepted and useful; where bus rides to Kings Island are just precious memories of the past. We’re standing on the threshold of a new life — perhaps a different town, a new set of friends to see everyday, maybe even a new love. No matter what we choose, we'll be content because we’ve waited twelve long years to finally grasp our goals. ' We’re now ready to reach out to our dreams that are waiting for us ‘‘Somewhere Down the Road. ” Graduation 1982 63 i ... Clubs mi 64 Club Divider A statue stretched toward the sky Cheered us on as we expressed Our desire to achieve. Realizing each move we made Determined our success, We strived to be different in many ways. Club Divider 65 “Take it back one more time!” Band students decided the voice had to be a recording of Director Teresa Elliott as they took it back one more time again and again. While summer presided, marchers devoted two weeks to practicing in 90 degree weather, running endless laps, and following a strict 9:00-4:00 schedule. Backaches soon healed as they received a standing ovation for their “sneak peek” performance of the marching season. Band lovers were offered a new season with new attractions. Flag corps members twirled new double flags, and the closing song ended with magic from the flag sleeve. After learning to read charts and watching video tapes, members discovered the season’s show kept getting better and was soon only a marching step away from the best. While contests came and went, trophies and awards traveled homeward with the band. Pep talks by sophomore Robbie Haworth became a superstitious tradition as Paoli marchers captured seven trophies at the Tell City Invitational. Pride of Paoli’s marching season ended with an overnight stay at state competition in Terre Haute. After a first division performance in the state preliminaries, the season finale proved to be an eighth place ranking in the state. Police escorts, bon fires, and congratulation dinners honored the PHS musicians and director who had performed a miracle. Concert season may have been approached more calmly, but the results were the same. With the students still in tune for winning, solo and ensemble contest provided another chance to earn coveted first division medals. Christmas and Spring concerts and the annual four band concert allowed audiences to judge for themselves the prize winning performances of this PHS band. 66 Band Adding a blue-sequined touch of class to the crowd-pleasing rendition of “They’re Playing Our Song” was the 1982 field commander, sophomore Jill McNutt. She led marching musicians with the confidence of a pro after hours of summer practice and a week’s instruction at the UK band camp. As PHS’s youngest drum major ever, Jill sometimes shared field duties with half-note size brother Seth who often stole the show with his own boogie commanding.

She feels you must press a student to his fullest and then let his winning attitude guide him through to the end. Devotion to a goal meant hours of work for director and students. From skating parties to carving jack-o-lanterns for the Indian Summer feast to skiing at the Peaks, this band became a family. Director Elliott believes “Pride of Paoli” is still in a changing period. Dramatic proof was the leap from last in the district in ’81 to eighth in the state in ’82. With much confidence in the future of the band, Mrs. Elliott wants students to settle for nothing less than their best. 68 Pride of Paoli Pride of Paoli marched its way to firsts in Field Competition at Salem and the Pumpkin Festival Parade. Proudly showing off their golden honors were Field Commander Jill McNutt, Band Captain Steven Radcliffe, and Band President Tami Maudlin.

Black and white isn’t always fun and games For the first time in decades, Mrs. Uyesugi’s Paolite staff was predpminately male. The publication began the year by capturing two third place honors and one first in competition with other schools at the IUS journalism institute. As a Christmas special, the staff featured the art of photographer Melissa Farlow, one of Paoli’s most distinguished journalism graduates. A light table, given to the journalism department as a gift from the school, added new dimensions to the class as students were taught the modern way to bring the paper to the photographing stage. Another innovation was the “Paolite Insert,” which featured organizations in a mimeographed mini paper ... And it’s still just a dime. 74 Chess Paolite Despite the declining economy, Paoli businessmen still came through with $4940 of support to make this year’s Hillcrest ad sales a record breaker.

Drama!French 79 FFA has become a way of life for many students at PHS. One hundred and ninety-six strong, the Paoli chapter once again claimed the title of biggest chapter in the state. Under the direction of advisers Dean Johnson and Gerald Jackson, a record number of teams qualified for state competition in June at Purdue University. “This is the best level we’ve ever performed at,” boasted Adviser Jackson. The advisers are quick to point out that the students on the teams deserve the credit. As Mr. Johnson said, “To perform well, they must have the interest. We just direct them.” With 22 years of combined FFA experience, Advisers Johnson and Jackson make sure the direction their students receive is life related. As Mr. Jackson said, “Agriculture is life.” Whether judging dairy cattle, writing an impromtu essay or speaking the creed, PHS FFA members gain practical “life” lessons in responsibility and leadership. (Below Right) Ag IV student Eddie Roach learned that overhauling an engine may take a whole semester, but the experience gained and that final A made it all worth while. A firm believer in the total education of students, Mr. Jackson feels the significance of FFA at Paoli is to help students appreciate what other subjects can do for them. He stated, “My role is to turn children on to education. I want to help them appreciate knowledge.” In turn PHS students appreciate the type of education FFA offers them and will take with them the lessons learned when they move out into the Paoli community.

FFA 81 “Robert’s Rules of Order” might sound like a foreign language to many students at PHS, but to members of FFA they are the words which provide control and power in any group meeting. School and community groups got lessons from the FFA demonstration team, (Below) but the official 12 member team competed at the state contest in June. Displaying their knowledge for the judges in a fifteen minute presentation were president Ken Thurman, Vice President Steve Long, Secretary Penny Lane, Treasurer Eddie Roach, Reporter Jimmy Wright, Sentinel Randy Jessie, Adviser Mike Deaton, and members Scott Apple, Danny Cadle, Ross Gilliatt, John Harkness, and Lisa Phillips. Adviser Jackson said, “We’ve worked for 13 years to get out of the district,” and behind Ken Thurman’s leadership this group had the chance to prove that like the chapter, they were the best in the state. (Right) Answering 150 history questions would seem a formidable task for any student, but to FFA quiz bowl members, it was all in a day’s work.

Through tears and Triumph we sought our goals, Forever striving for excellence. Sports Divider 99 “I’m a winner, I’m a Ram” became more than a spirited chant as 1981-82 was a year of accomplishment for the varsity cheerleaders. Those long, hot summer practices were well worth it when the girls came home from camp with a first place rating in competition with 54 other varsity squads. That was all it took to get Captain Julie Warren and her five member squad ready to yell on the Rams. Cheerleaders mount up for spirit ride 100 Cheerleaders Striving to create that perfect Ram spirit, the varsity members kept cheers simple. But they didn’t just limit their spirit time to athletics. Traveling to Jasper with the “Pride of Paoli,” varsity cheerleaders helped cheer the band to a first place District win.

Cheerleaders 101 PHS basketball 1981-82 ... the year that almost was. A 7-15 record stands as evidence of an unsuccessful season, but the real story can’t be told in numbers. Striving to claim PHS’s first winning season in eleven years, Coach Jerry Stroud and his Rams fought to bring respectability to Paoli basketball. These ten young athletes played every game until it hurt. Steady improvement, a strong bench and a desire to cooperate enabled the Rams to break the school record for assists. But the agony of ten heartbreaking losses by an average of less than three points per game will forever haunt this squad. At times the gym seemed more filled with pride than fans, but each time the Rams took the court, they had the confidence they could win. When the hardwood season opened with a one point loss to Eastern Pekin, little did the Rams know this game foreshadowed other disappointments yet to come. The year was not without bright spots. Paoli tasted victory in an upset over Mitchell on the Jackets’ court, and wins over West Washington and Perry Central put them in contention for the PLAC title. Going into the Shoals game with confidence and a 4-4 record, the Rams felt this could be the season’s turning point. But Ram momentum died during a power failure delay, and the path to victory was darkened. Once again PHS loyalty was tested, and the Rams rose to the occasion with a 69-64 defeat of “backyard rival” Springs Valley. With the John Murray trophy at stake, a Paoli-Orleans matchup always means just a little more. Twice the Rams battled to the end, and twice they were overcome by a Bulldog shot at the buzzer. Tension mounted as the regular season finale drew close. With a win over the CC Wolfpack, the Rams could claim the PLAC championship. But destiny denied them once more, and all eyes turned to the sectional. It seemed fitting that Paoli drew Eastern, and in a revenge matchup, the Rams were in complete control with a 71-54 win. In the semi-final round with Salem, the Rams came out roaring. Yet, unable to withstand their opponents’ fourth quarter charge, the Rams fell prey to the Lions. This may be called “the season that could have been,” but Rams and their fans knew they had given it their best shot. All who loved the Rams agreed, “I’m a winner, I’m a Ram.” Dreams for 1982 may not have been realized, but the seeds of a successful season for 1983 had been sown. ’81-82 the season that almost was Members of the 1981-82 varsity basketball squad were Second Row Manager Scott McBride, Steve Holland, Ivan First Row, Left to Right: Manager David Wolfe, Jack Hilyard, Denton, Joe Barrett, Bryan Grimes, Joe Meadows, Barry Ken- Scott Flick, Allan King, Bobbie Bostock, Manager Dean Jones, dall, Head Coach Jerry Stroud. 102 Boys’ Basketball PAOLI OPPONENT 57 Pekin Eastern 58 60 Crothersville 58 58 Scottsburg 72 35 Mitchell 32 42 North Harrison 44 70 West Washington 64 62 Northeast Dubois 64 55 Perry Central ' 54 50 Shoals 4 54 70 Clarksville 53 45 Charlestown 54 48 Orleans 50 66 Austin 68 69 Springs Valley 64 56 Corydon 59 37 Orleans 39 47 Brownstown 65 45 Salem 51 40 Silver Creek 65 37 Crawford County Sectional 48 71 Pekin Eastern 54 46 Salem 52 'S « Living up to the expectations of your fans is never easy.

With 875 career points, he claimed the ninth spot on Paoli’s all time scorer’s list. As the team’s number one scorer in ’82 with 364 points, Ivan’s hardwood experience and b-ball expertise gave Ram fans a reason to be proud. In a hard fought win over Clarksville, Jivin’ Ivan put on an offensive show with 30 points, but his potential reached its peak late in January when he blasted the hoops for 31 points in a heartbreaking loss to Corydon. This 6' 2 center used his height on the boards to pull down a team second 126 rebounds. Approaching the charity stripe with confidence, Denton ripped in 68 of 89 attempts to lead the team with a sizzling 76.4 free throw percentage. Even when victory seemed so distant, Ivan’s optimism often inspired teammates to try just a little harder. His will be a name long remembered and a place hard to fill. Boys' Basketball 103 Senior Steve Holland’s 6' 2 height proved to be an essential factor in the Rams’ 1982 game plan. Dominating the boards, “Big H” earned himself the Leading Rebounder title for two successive seasons. Pulling down 133 caroms off the glass, Steve averaged 6.0 per game. Co-captain Holland steered the Rams to a major upset against Mitchell with 11 points and 9 rebounds. Possessing strong offensive and defensive alertness, Holland claimed the position of second leading scorer for the Rams. Steve’s game by game consistency was a key factor in keeping the Rams in contention in 1982. Through hard work and dedication, senior Allan King (Above) broke into Paoli’s starting line-up. As Paoli rose to victory over West Washington, Allan contributed to the win as one of the four Rams in double figures. “Big Al” made a dynamic fourth quarter charge against Brownstown popping in ten points to add to his 190 season total. Destiny deals 104 Boys' Basketball What he lacked in height, 5' 10 Scott Flick (Left) made up for in quickness. Executing fine ball handling, Scott led the team in assists this season and now ranks second on Paoli’s leading assist makers list with 145. Playing as a fulltime guard for the Rams, Scott averaged 8.8 points per game. Despite a red-letter performance of 16 points and 12 assists against Dubois, Scott’s heroic efforts were not enough as the Jeeps slipped by in a 64-62 overtime struggle. But in an early season win over Crothersville, Flick accounted for 21 points and 5 assists and gave Ram fans a foundation to base next season’s hopes on. Starting at forward for the Rams, junior Jack Hilyard (Below) saw his second year of varsity action this season. Hilyard’s aggressive style of play earned him the title Best Defensive Player. Pumping in 10 points, Jack’s outstanding performance in the Springs Valley match was just what the Rams needed to clip the Hawks. During sectional play against Eastern Pekin, Jack chalked up 10 points and was leading rebounder with 7. losing hand to Stroud’s determined men Boys’Basketball 105 Named Most Inspirational Player by his teammates senior Joe Meadows (Right) was the official Ram spirit rouser during his two year varsity career. Football-oriented Meadows applied his gridiron tactics to play hard defense in over half the Ram battles. Seeing action in 18 of 22 games, Bobbie Bostock’s (Below) job was to come off the bench and maintain momentum. Bostock’s “go get ’em” attitude was evident in his aggressive style of play, while senior Barry Kendall (Far Right) was often transformed into a Hawk, Bulldog, or Bluejacket in order for the starters to become acquainted with the opponents’ game tactics. “Super subs” provide big Ram boost 106 Boys’ Basketball Coining into the season with no varsity experience, junior Bryan Grimes’ (Above Left) steady improvement earned him a first five position. A starter in the last nine games, Bryan tallied 13 points and 5 rebounds in sectional play against Salem. Hitting 29 of 40 from the charity stripe, Grimes shot a second high free throw percentage of 72.5. Making the move up from JV midway through the season, 6' 2 Joe Barrett (Left) was counted on to perform well in all game situations. Boys' Basketball 107 Although the hard work of the boys’ tennis team gave them only a 3-11 win-loss record, Coach David Alvey’s players were proud of the three games won as they had gone winless the previous years. (Right) Being the first PHS player to ever advance to the regional helped earn junior Pat Terrell, no. 1 singles player, the title of Most Valuable Player. The girls’ tennis team met its goal of improving each player’s strong points. Proof was an increase in individual match victories from eight in 1981 to twenty-three in 1982.

Girls'Tennis 109 Rams win with “ we can do it” spirit “We can do it!” The 1981-82 girls’ varsity basketball team believed this and played with the determination to prove it. But this young, inexperienced team was plagued by a lack of quickness and some inconsistent play. With a 9-10 win-loss record, the goal of winning one-half of the season’s games was almost met. Despite close losses to rivals Valley and Corydon and a heartbreaking defeat at Silver Creek, first year girls’ coach Barry Sutherlin appreciated his Rams’ hard work and team play. Rewards come to those who struggle to be best, and when the season closed, both fans and opponents had given the Rams the respect they deserved. PHS b-ballers were First Row, Left to Right: Lora Jones, Kim Pearson, Co-captain Mary Ruth Noblitt, Angie Crockett. Second Row: Assistant Coach LuAnn Shrewsbury, Co-captain Beth Chapman, Charlene Becht, Sherri Hauger, Kim Eubank, Coach Barry Sutherlin. The only player to see action in all 76 quarters, sophomore Sherri Hauger (Right) was versatile at both ends of the court. With 187 total rebounds, Hauger captured the Most Rebounds Award and pulled down a season high 19 against Valley. Boasting a 24 point performance against Charlestown and 18 against Salem, Sherri’s 43% field goal average w$s the Rams’ best. Finishing the season with 199 big points, center Hauger could be counted on for 10.1 points per game and will be looked to as a bright spot in next year’s lineup. 110 Girls’Varsity Basketball Senior Beth Chapman (Left) closed out her PHS varsity sports career on the 1982 basketball court. Seeing action in 75 quarters and all 19 games, Co-captain Beth showed what being a leader was all about. With 226 total points, she led the team in scoring and claimed the best average with 11.9 points per game. Her consistency was evident in three 18 point contests against Clarksville, Salem and Scottsburg. Second in assists with 37, Chapman also showed her strength on the boards as she grabbed 115 total rebounds for a 6.1 average. Her fifty-eight percent accuracy at the charity stripe earned Beth the team’s Best Free Throw Percentage Award. In a game where versatility is valued, Beth often proved her worth. She leaves behind a uniform that won’t be easily filled. Being only a freshman didn’t stop Charlene “Chuck” Becht. Second in rebounds with 172 and third in scoring with 93 points, Becht was a rookie to be reckoned with. A last second game-winning shot against Brownstown showed Rams that heroes come in all ages. Playing in all but two games, Co-captain and senior Mary Ruth Noblitt captured the Most Inspirational Player Award for her enthusiasm and hustle. Another senior, Lora Jones, saw action in every game and captured the Best Defensive Player Award, while sophomore Kim Pearson claimed the Assist Award with 39. 45 Orleans 35 Springs Valley 43 Corydon 49 North Harrison 55 Silver Creek 58 Mitchell 68 Charlestown 61 Clarksville 38 Perry Central 33 Crawford County 29 Austin 40 Brownstown Paoli Invitational Tourney ell ford County Reeve Washington 37 Scottsburg Sectional 35 - -- - - 1 North Harrison 27 47 27 80 50 i ■ Girls Varsity Basketball 111 Though many believe history repeats itself, the 1981 varsity Ram football team rewrote the book. After struggling through the 1980 season, PHS grid-ders peaked to an emotional high in the last game of the season against Mid-Southern foe Clarksville. That lone triumph taught the young Rams that football and success could once again share the same meaning at Paoli. When Head Coach Tom Anderson called his Rams to unite and prepare for the 1981 season, the cheers of the Clarksville game echoed in Ram grid-ders’ ears. Through the sweat and anguish emerged a sense of pride and team unity. “If we’re to be a good team, we will act like a good team” became the new attitude of these determined Rams. Applying their motto off the field as well as on gained the reformed Rams much respect from fans as well as competitors and caused Coach Anderson to proclaim, “This was the best pre-season practice since I took command at Paoli.” The 1981 Rams knew from experience that you can’t live on past records, and on the rainy evening of August 28, the Rams taught the Charlestown Pirates this same lesson. A storm was brewing as the arrogant Pirates rolled into town carrying with them an 8-1 overall record against Paoli. With the opening kick off came the first few drops of rain, but after four wet quarters and a delayed game, the scoreboard still read 0-0. It wasn’t until the third overtime that a fake field goal pass from Jon Babcock to Jamie Snyder gave Paoli its first victory over Charlestown since 1972 and left the Pirates standing out in the rain. Game by game the team’s unity grew. Stunned competitors slowly walked off the field as the sweet taste of victory melted in the Rams’ mouths. The sweetest victory of all was that of the Mitchell game. After being humiliated by the Jackets the year before “fifty-eight to nothin’,” Paoli marched on the field ready for battle. As Paoli put forth its greatest defensive effort of the season in a long, hard fight, the Jackets surrendered to the mighty Rams 7-0. Victory was no longer just an echo of the past. 112 Football 1981 Football Rams were First Row, Left to Right: Managers Kevin Rutherford, Jeff Holland, Joe Snyder, Mark Meehan, Mark Weddle, Manager Randy Jessie.

He dared teammates to set high goals and instilled in them a courageous enthusiasm to reach those goals. (Far Left) As a kicker, reaching “goals” was 51’s main concern. Connecting on three field goals and seven extra points earned him well-deserved spots on both the All MSC and All PLAC teams as a place kicker. In spite of an early season injury, Meadows started nine of ten games as offensive guard. Defensively, Joe held up his “end” of the deal as he accounted for 42 tackles, one fumble recovery, and one broken up pass. (Upper Left) Co-captain Jon Babcock took command of the Ram offense under the direction of Coaches Anderson and Eldon Seacat. Senior Jon’s ability to straighten out mix-ups on the field contributed to a well-organized game plan. With 25 pass completions and nine receptions, Jon accounted for 493 yards and one touchdown. Possessing such offensive wisdom, it was no surprise when Jon earned Class A Academic All State honors. With 81 tackles and two pass interceptions, Jon received recognition as an All MSC Honorable Mention Defensive Back.

People came from miles around while opponents wished they stayed home. This senior center’s voice was the symbol of his brand of leadership. Mike set a tone which inspired his fellow Rams to fight bravely in defeat but remain “low-pitched” in victory. (Right) Because of Mike’s hard-nosed blocking, his teammates named him Most Valuable Offensive Lineman. As a defensive guard, he was credited with 52 tackles, four hard hits, and one forced fumble. 114 Football Third year punter (Left Middle) Pat Levesque averaged 35.8 yards per punt, claiming the title All PLAC Punter. Pat, a senior fullback, carried the ball 52 times for 172 yards, while defensively, Pat compiled 69 season tackles. (Lower Middle) Racking up 15 tackles, senior Chuck McDonald led the Rams in a tremendous defensive effort which held “unwary Mitchell” scoreless. Weary opponents felt Chuck’s presence as this 202 pound linebacker totaled 99 tackles, two hard hits, and three interceptions. These statistics earned him defensive spots on both the All MSC and All PLAC teams. As tight end, Chuck caught six passes for 47 yards. (Below) Avenging last year’s game with Charlestown in which he suffered a severe knee injury, senior Jon Miley, 71, led the Rams to a 6-0 victory over the Pirates. Opponents rarely found Miley, Paoli’s big man in the middle, good company. Again Jon’s season was plagued with injury, but he managed to play in eight of ten games, tallying 54 tackles, two hard hits, two fumble recoveries, and two forced fumbles. As a result, Jon, a 6'3 , 240 pound defensive tackle, claimed his team’s Most Valuable Defensive Lineman award and clinched a spot as defensive tackle on the All PLAC team. Football 115 Junior Chris Lambdin, 62, (Right) showed much improvement as he claimed 22 tackles and recognition as an All Patoka Lake Guard. Leadership throughout the year will be a responsibility shared by Lambdin and junior Jamie Snyder as they were elected captains of the 1982 grid season. (Upper Middle) As halfback Snyder cracked heads with opponents, he rammed his way to a single game rushing record of 285 yards and a single season rushing record of 1038 yards in 200 carries. (Above) Jamie became the first Ram gridder ever to gain over 1000 yards in one season. Both the MSC and PLAC recognized this Ram talent with spots on their All Conference teams. 116 Football With 113 tackles, five hard hits, two fumble recoveries, and three interceptions, (Below) junior Troy Moore progressed by leaps and bounds to become the Rams’ leading tackier. (Left) Senior Doug Kirby came through in clutch situations for the Rams as he connected on four receptions for 118 yards. Showing much promise for next year’s season are junior Jason Matthews, who in spite of coming down with meningitis after the season opener, gained valuable experience and junior Doug Elliott who claimed 53 tackles. Add to this sophomore Steve Bradbury’s 49 tackles and the game experience of Jon Sullivan, and the 1982 football season looks promising. Rams look to ’82 with sense of pride Football 117 Kline’s hurrying harriers hustle Although their goal to run in the regional was not met, cross country Coach Roy Kline and his harriers hoped the experience they gained would strengthen next year’s team. With a record of 20 wins and 48 losses, Coach Kline admitted that inexperience cost his young team several meets. But dedication was evident in this 1981 team as they logged mile after mile in the off season, striving to qualify for Coach Kline’s 500 and 1000 mile clubs. With self-improvement such a motivating factor, success must be just around the next curve. PHS harriers for 1981 were First Row, Left to Right: Joe VanHook, Mike Dixon, Robbie Haworth, Susan Valentine, Chris Wells. Second Row: Brian Busick, Brad Chastain, Coach Roy Kline, Randy Weikert, Rex Miller. Most Improved Runner of 1981 was Senior Brian Busick (Right). Trimming 2:33 off his first meet time of 19:10, he ran a 17:37 at the sectional, which proved to be Brian’s best effort of the season. 118 Crosscountry Sophomore Robbie Haworth (Left) hustled away with the Most Valuable Runner award. The backbone of the team, Rob reached his peak at the Mid-Southern Conference meet with a time of 17:09 and clinched an All PLAC berth. (Lower Left) The only female on the team, Susan Valentine had no trouble keeping up with her male teammates. Also a sophomore, Susan earned All Mid-Southern Conference attention performing her best in the girls’ conference meet with a time of 11:35. With all but one team member returning in 1982, including (Below) veteran Brad Chastain and Rookie of the Year Chris Wells, the upcoming season looks bright.

It may also mean a team with spirit and good sportsmanship. Winning the PLAC and the sectional and placing in the upper half of the Mid-Southern Conference were preseason goals for Coach Deanna Baker’s 1981 varsity volleyball team. Along with a season’s dreams, the team’s goals crumbled around an injury to a four-year varsity veteran. The season ended with a nine win-thirteen loss record and a fourth place in the PLAC ranking. A late season game against Mid-Southern foe North Harrison proved to be a real morale booster. Posting the highest serves, spikes, and assists in years, the Rams entered sectional play in competitive form. The towering Rams may have been conquered on the court but not in spirit.

But more importantly, she added just the right touch of senior leadership and enthusiasm needed to help mold a group of individuals into a team. Members who added moral and bench support when called upon were Michelle Trinkle, Rhonda Manship, Chris Kintz, Marla Qualkenbush, Beth Patton and Kim Pearson. victory — a taste of reality Volleyball 123 Golfers Making the move out of the Mid-Southern cellar, the 1982 golf team placed second in the conference with a 321, the second lowest team total a Paoli squad has ever shot. With a 43-12-2 record this team surpassed even Coach Mike Kerby’s expectations. Bringing home the Orange County Meet trophy for the fourth consecutive year was the ultimate victory. Although hopes for a PLAC victory were high, Springs Valley moved in and the Rams took the number two seat. Not expected by opponents to finish in the top half of the sectional, the Rams gained much respect by finishing fifth out of 19 teams and was represented by Brian Wolfe at the regional. PHS golfers were First Row, Left to Right: Brian Wolfe, Jon Nelson, Jeff West. Second Row: Coach Mike Kerby, Joe Meadows, Ivan Denton, Ken Rominger, Terry Lockhart.

With an 18-hole average of 77.7 and a 9-hole average of 34.8, Brian earned the title Team Medalist. Setting a new home course 18-hole record with a 69, Brian promises to be the nucleus of the ’83 team. In the first year on the golf team (Right) Ivan Denton’s only regret was that he didn’t become a PHS golfer sooner. Finishing out the season in the number two position, Ivan was named Most Improved Player. This Paoli athlete earned double Mid-Southern honors in basketball and golf. Tieing for third in the conference meet, Ivan was the only PHS golfer to meet the top five requirement. county title Returning junior Ken Rom-inger (Left) possessed the positive attitude needed to be a winner. Ken’s dedication was an inspiration to his teammates. Freshmen Jeff West, Jon Nelson, and Terry Lockhart were often called on to prove their golf expertise on the links. This trio and upcoming eighth grade talent will have the chance to put their hours of practice to use in 1983. Golf 125 The 1982 baseball season opened with a strong 8-3 victory over PLAC foe Perry Central. Then a dark cloud rolled in, and the Rams fell fast and hard five times straight before rising to victory over Crawford County in a double header. Coming from behind is a difficult task especially when the game is nearing the end, but the positive attitude which held this team together throughout the season came shining through as the Rams slipped by Charlestown 10-9. A four game winning streak seemed to get Ram momentum rolling, but a loss to county rival Springs Valley dampened visions of victory. No matter what their record implied, each time this team took the field they possessed the mental attitude which was vital for winning. Despite two injuries the Rams rolled over Salem 15-1. Taking opponents by surprise, the Rams controlled sectional play. The victors defeated Salem and Valley and went on to roll over Pekin in the finals 10-4.

Steve swung a mean bat, boasting three base hits against Scottsburg and Pekin Eastern. Four-year letterman Jon Babcock (Left) proved to be the team’s spirit rouser. Behind the plate, catcher Babcock chanted words of encouragement to teammates and tested opponents’ nerves. Claiming a respectable .290 batting average, even in defeat Jon never quit, chalking up one homerun and two RBI’s against North Harrison. ft Going into sectional play, junior Brad Cook (Left) was the Rams’ leading homerun hitter with three. Brad’s big game came against Charlestown when he popped two balls out of the park. A southpaw, “Cookie” pitched four winning games to lead the pitching staff at press time. Dividing his time between both baseball and track Chuck McDonald (Above) covered first base or right field. A three year varsity member, Chuck possessed an outstanding attitude which often sparked his teammates. Another senior, Doug Kirby, finished his second year on the varsity squad. Doug led the team in hitting throughout the regular season with an average of .387. Baseball 127 Qualifying 14 boys for the track sectional this year proved to be the bright point in the 1982 track season for Coach Darrell Newkirk. A talented membership was an important factor as the team walked away with the PLAC championship for the third straight year. Although this team had an Orange County championship under its belt, it failed to perform well in the big meets. Placing fifth in the Mid-Southern Conference meet was a disappointment to both the team and coaches since a pre-season goal was to place in the top three. However, Coach Newkirk was quick to point out that good efforts were made overall, and that with all 14 sectional qualifiers returning, next season will be one to watch. Known as the “Franchise” to teammates, junior Roy Ash (Right) holds many PHS records. A member of the record-holding 400 and 1600 meter relay teams, Roy holds individual records in the 100 and 200 meter dashes. Receiving the Outstanding Individual Performer trophy at the North Harrison Invitational, Roy ran a personal best in the 200 with a time of 22.7. Roy, along with junior teammate Chad Copeland who jumped a personal best of 6'3 in high jump, represented PHS at the regional.

Scott boasted PLAC status in this event and is a member of the school record-holding 1600 meter relay team. (Above) Running a time of 52.3 in the 400 meter dash, junior Brad Chastain performed a seasonal best at the North Harrison Invitational. Gaining PLAC attention in this event, Brad also kicked in the last leg of the 1600 meter relay for the Rams. (Upper Left) Number two runner in the 400 was sophomore Charlie Fravell who ran a seasonal best of 53.2. Both Brad and Charlie went to sectional in the 400 and 1600 meter relays. Sophomore Robbie Haworth showed what dedication meant as he sometimes ran the mile, two mile, and 800 meter races all in the same meet. Closing out their track careers were shot and discus men Pat Levesque and Chuck McDonald as well as distance runner Brian Busick. Boys’ Track 129 Dedicated Rams capture County Meet Hurdling her way to an Orange County Meet victory, senior Julie Warren (Upper Right) was a major point contributor in every meet. Running her fastest time of a 17.4 at the Mid-Southern earned her a conference fourth place and her best run of the season. (Above) Senior Jill Elliott proved to be “Miss Flexibility” as she added points to team scores in the long jump, high jump, 400 meter run, 1600 meter relay, and 800 meter relay. (Right) With an outstanding hurl in discus, sophomore Kim Pearson went all-PLAC and also claimed the trophy for most points in field events. Sophomore Marla Qualkenbush proved to be the Rams’ fastest 100 and 200 meter runner. Freshman 400 runner Charlene Becht broke the school record with a time of 1:04.4. 130 Girls’Track With an Orange County championship under their cap, the 1982 girls’ track team boasted goals reached or almost attained. The county trophy had not come to PHS since 1979 when it was shared with Springs Valley. The goal of becoming PLAC champs was in sight, but the Rams placed second to a strong Perry Central team. This meet proved to be the peak of the season. Although the Rams’ winning record of 8-7 in dual and triangular meets was another goal met, the most rewarding moment for Coach Deanna Baker came during the Pekin Eastern meet. When the meet came down to the last event, the 1600 meter relay, Coach Baker said, “The whole team got excited and helped the relay team out.” That was the theme of this 1982 team. With only two seniors on the team, underclassmen played a major role in the season’s events. Enthusiasm was never out of reach for these harriers, and fellow support and interest was one talent shared by all. Ram track star Susan Valentine (Left) carried a heavy load as a sophomore.

The work is demanding and Mrs. Barbara Spence’s English class is no exception. From vocabulary and spelling to literature and grammar, Mrs. Spence’s students are exposed to all aspects of their native tongue. A PHS teacher for seven years, Mrs. Spence finds a sense of accomplishment in providing her students with a strong English background. A highlight of the year is the annual poetry recital in which students select, memorize, and present poems to the class. For many students this is their first public speaking experience. Mrs. Spence stated, “I enjoy working one to one with the kids,” and preparing for the recital gives her a chance to do just that. (Right) Pat Tolbert learned that finding just the right selection may take some help. Time away from school is spent with four-year-old daughter Kelli. Summer trips to Spring Mill are favorites, but an “itch to travel” keeps Mrs. Spence and her husband busy entering vacation ‘ contests in hopes of winning the big one. 148 Junior High Jr. High lives in world of unending knowledge Rubik’s Cube masters, navigators, composers and artists — junior high students find themselves in a world all their own.

Whether making our debut on wintery white slopes Or silently trudging through crisp, autumn leaves, We dreamed. We had hopes that grew into illusions, But this only signified a broader search For harmony. We were often tempted to abandon our challenge, But our destination grew so near. With pride we became what we imagined.
