o doubt about it-Parkland is a tough act to follow! excel at almost everything we ' do, whether it's dancing for 12 hours straight, cramming for an exam, or beating an archrival. As we started off the 84-85 school year, someone spray painted “Wy Be Normal” on the outside auditorium wall. Although this j was a deliberately misspelled act of vandalism, it made everyone realize individuality does exist at PHS. Parkland School District covers a vast area from Breinigsville to Laurys Station. Thus, the students of Parkland reside in the country, suburbs, and the city. This provides an interesting combination of personalities. Because of the variety of people, it s a good thing that the curriculum offers a wide variety of courses to choose from, ranging from Vo-tech to College Prep.

Wanda Culkins, Erich Schock and Darrell Winner received National Merit Semi-finalist awards, and an additional 14 seniors received letters of commendation. Also, Parkland students consistently score well above the national average on the SAT’s. Even our teachers are above average. Sixty-seven percent of the teaching staff has attained a masters degree or above. The Jungle, Parkland’s environmental lab, won a Search for Excellence in Environmental Education award. Parkland was one of nine districts which received this statewide honor. Mr. Ed Davis, curriculum director, explained, “Not many schools have an environmental lab next to the school. It’s rare.” Student Council honored students with exceptional abilities as students of the month. Ruth Grim, and John Yankanich, for example, received this honor.

Whatever we do, we do it in style, whether it’s cheering on the Trojans at a game or going to our traditional hangout, McDonalds. But we’ve broken some old traditions like the preppy style. Fluorescent sweatshirts, rubber bracelets, and unusual hair styles with tails invaded the halls of PHS this year, as students followed the trends set by rock stars such as Cyndi Lauper. Some students attended her concert in November like senior Lori Mahler. She said, “Her style of dress is extremely wild and the same goes for most of the people who attended her concert.” Although some grumbled about these changes, we knew change was the price to pay to stay on top. Enjoying his her lunch immensely, this creature appeared in the cafeteria on Halloween Day. Punk Day gave students the chance to go wild.

This year was no different. Despite the chilling night air, students and graduates dressed in layers and drinking hot chocolate, packed the stands. The Trojans fought their way to a disappointing tie with Northampton. Homecoming topped off Spirit Week and the bonfire. Even though attendance was low, the students who attended had a great time. Senior Tracy Amey commented, “At the bonfire I was really spirited because everyone around me showed school spirit too.” But what would Homecoming be without a queen? At halftime Shelly Farrell was crowned 1985 Homecoming Queen by 1984 Queen Chris Goida. The court included Brooks Campbell, Carolann Oswald, Kelly King, and Shawn Homecoming queen Shelly Farrell, takes a moment to pose with King Jamie Wasson, on the throne. McDonough. Scott Bartman, Chip Hanna, Craig Sidlek, and Trevor Smoll. Jamie Wasson was chosen king at the dance which followed the game. Senior Sherri Straley commented, “I thought Homecoming was very exciting. It made me realize that there’s not much time left to my senior year.” Student Council began the planning and the organizing near the beginning of the school year. Committees decorated the cars, organized the ballots and did just about everything else to make the event run smoothly. PAC brought some color into the night by launching hundreds of balloons at halftime. Sponsors paid $1.00 for a balloon in hopes of having theirs go the furthest, thus winning a $25.00 prize. PAC also won first place in the Homecoming banner contest. The 1984 Homecoming court included Scott Bartman, Brooks Campbell, Chip Hanna. Kelly King. 1983 king and queen, Carl Jones and Chris Goida. Craig Sidlek, Shelly Farrell, Trevor Smoll. Shawn Mcr onough. Jim Baker, and Carol Ann Oswald. 11 Homecoming The crowed cheered and sang at all the basketball games throughout the school year to show off our great spirit. Many students and faculty members participated in the Almost Anything Goes competition as a fund raiser for the PAC. Wild and crazy Trojan mascot boosts morale with ‘DMA’s’ C'X,oiilna It’s another Friday morning in homeroom. The PA system clicks and then the familiar sound of the “DMA” broadcasts throughout the school. Take Friday December 14 for example, as the first “dreaded mascot announcement” of the basketball season went on the air. Senior mascot Mike Dekrell announced, “Tonight will be pajama night” while a chorus of senior guys sang “Da Doo Run Run” in the background. Does the mascot really help to lift school spirit? Mike Billera and Doug Urland answered, “The mascot helps us to go nuts at football games.” Mike thinks “the spirit is here; the students just need me to bring it out.” One thing the mascot used as a spirit booster was the “terrible towels” during the football season. But basketball season was really where the spirit started. Another spirit booster was the Almost Anything Goes night. The PAC sponsored it. The students and the faculty participated in crazy games like pie eating and the egg toss. The seniors triumphed. Spirit really started moving during spirit week. The week started out with crazy hats and socks day. Hawaiian beach day also helped to create school spirit. Red and grey day finished off the week. The most spirited students, Ed Olsen and Kyle Reinhard, won a free ticket to the homecoming game and dance. The sophomore class won 25 dollars for being the most spirited class. President of the sophomore class Eric Foster thinks, “It’s really great that the class just starting out in the high school can get involved so quickly.” 12 Student Life J rojan power comes alive Sophomores Mike Sharp, Matt Brosiu .

What are you doing tonight? Dave: Nothing much. I'm just going to the game and dance, and then to McDonalds. What about you? Jodi: I’m going to the game and dance also, but then I’m going to the midnight movies. Dave: That sounds pretty cool. Have fun. Jodi: Thanks. You too! Many students have had conversations similar to this on Friday afternoons during study halls, and even classes. A1 DiCarlo, sophomore, was one of these students. “I do a lot of different things on weekends. Usually at night, I go to the movies with friends or to the mall; during the days I watch football or go to New York.” Weekends spent away from home have been the most memorable for some. Matt Brosius a sophomore, said, “The weekend I went to Berkley College in Boston to visit my brother was the most memorable weekend for me. Sophomore Danellc Bacon’s most memorable weekend was also spent away from home. “Kim Drabic and I went to California and got into the 3-2-1 Club. We met two escorts who were models; it was great!’’ Although venturing off to new and exciting places is always interesting, staying home and sticking to basics is usually fun too. Sophomore Robin Rauch excitedly said, “Last Christmas Vacation was great, especially New Year's Eve when we went ice skating!’’ Working for che weekend, senior Terry Bono cuts wood for a customer. Terry is self-employed, which cases some pressure of working during school.

Starting practice in mid-August, the cast and crew of “You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown” readied itself for two shows. On the first night of the play, attendance was low, but when word spread, 400 people saw the second performance. The musical was about the everyday life of the characters of the comic strip. Charlie Brown was played by senior Chris Renaud, who said, “I had never held the lead part in a musical before, so I found it quite challenging.” As a matter of fact, Chris had no musical training either. “My lack of musical talent, made hitting the high notes difficult,” he said. Senior Wanda Caulkins, who played Lucy, said, “Charlie Brown was a great experience for everyone involved. The cast and crew and audience seemed to have Mrs. Nancy Carthew, director, felt the experiment was well worth the time and effort. “Naturally they were excellent,” she added. She then said how hard the crew had worked, but there was also a bit of difficulty in arranging the Fall Musical. Getting the crew all together during their summer vacation was one major problem. Senior Tammy Richelderfer, who attended the play, commented, “I thought the character of Charlie Brown was real and lifelike compared to the comic strip.” Mr. Ralph Frederick, history teacher, said, “I was very impressed with the set, especially the kite and the leaf. The students in the play did a fine job too.” Judy Yanders, senior, commented, “The fact that most of the characters were seniors made the play go much smoother since they had two years of experience already under their belt.” a really good time. 16 Student Life Snoopy acts oul Schrocdcr’s (Tyrone Konlir) tale of Robin Hood by fighting Violet (Amy Nigro) with a sword.

Student Life Senior Jeff Micco directs the marching band for his second consecutive year. As drum major he conducts the music and directs the band’s formations. Drum Major Jill Reinhard conducts the Trojan Marching Band at halftime, during the Homecoming football game against Northampton. ‘Furst’ new band director leads Trojan marchers Ste xitUf For the first time ever, Mr. Alfred Reimschissel chose to have another person, Mr. Stephen Furst, direct the marching band. Mr. Furst led the 76 members of the marching band to a successful and enjoyable season. Senior Joanne Derricott stated, “I think someone new adds enthusiasm and I also think Mr. Furst will get more people interested in the band.” Mr. Alfred Reimschissel continued to direct the members of the stage band. Band and band front worked harder than ever, starting with earlier practices, and earlier deadlines. Senior Ann Toth stated that majorette practice demanded more of her than ever before, but it was worth it. Band drum majors, Jeff Micco and Jill Reinhard both led the band for their second year. Jeff commented, “Of the two years of drum majoring, I liked this year the best. The band seemed to get a lot more respect than any other year. There was a lot more combined spirit between the groups. The band front’s organization can be attributed to two new advisers. Barbara Panner led the silk squad and Parkland graduate, Debbie Altemose, directed the rifle and majorette squads. The band and band front’s main task turned out extremely well. The performance at half-time reflected all of their hard work and dedication. Overall, the band and band front enjoyed the togetherness of both clubs. 19 Band Band Front Marathon breaks tradition with less time, participants Maybe Bowie’s “Ch-Ch-Changes” would have been a better theme for the Dance Marathon. “Let’s Go Crazy’’ by Prince was the theme, but the distinction between this marathon and ones in the past was a focus on breaking tradition. First the Key and Leo Clubs followed Mr. Donald Fleming’s suggestion to shorten the event from 25 hours to 12 hours. Another major difference the clubs initiated was shifting the event from March to Nov. 16-17. Marathon participants also would be able to see how others benefit from their achievements. The Parkland Alliance For Youth will use the money to set up media centers in the elementary schools to educate young children about drug and alcohol abuse. local radio station. Key and Leo Clubs chose senior DJ’s Jim Fortney and Eric Rigler to keep the students rocking for the 12 hours. Both clubs’ members actively involved themselves with the planning of the event. The decorating committee decorated the gym with purple, black, and white balloons and a purple brick wall which participants signed. Presidents of Key and Leo Clubs, Anne Emmerth and Kris Breininger, wore the traditional tuxedos contributed by The Top Hat Unfortunately, the changes were not enough to atttact students. In fact, a disappointing 45 students showed up to dance out of the the 100 who had signed up. Mr. John Ritter commented that the students’ lack of interest will most likely lead to the end of the dance marathon for at least a couple of years. Instead of hiring DJ’s from a 20 Student Life Leo and Key Club presidents Kris Breininger and Anne Emmcrth speak with senior Jim Fortney who, along with Eric Riglcr, DJ'd the marathon.

Lew Kiefer (Richard Cory) gratefully accepts flowers from Maureen Devlin (chorus member). Abstract sets, modern play introduces skills to actors eJeciincj, On November 30, the cast of “Who Killed Richard Cory” hit the stage with their experimental production. The play began with the cast reciting the poem of “Richard Cory,” by Edward A. Robinson. Then each character had a scene that talked about Richard Cory and how he had it all but was still driven towards suicide. There were 37 scenes and each one was taken from a line of the poem. A new technique was used in this production. The actors had to work in abstract settings and costumes. The scenery was made up of boxes. Senior Ron Buse, who was part of the audience, said to the cast, “I guess you didn’t have to work hard on that set.” But really the boxes were hard to make up. The cast seemed to work well with the abstract setting. Sophomore Mike Parkinson (Joe, the paper boy) felt, “Working with those settings was quite a challenge because we had to act everything out.” The people involved in the production worked hard to make the show come to life. The cast practiced from 6:30 to 9:00 every day for two months after school. Senior Lew Kiefer (Richard Cory) thought, “Practices were long, but we were able to pay close attention to details.” There wasn’t a very large turnout. The students in the play thought that Parkland just wasn’t ready for a serious production like Richard Cory; comedies usually bring in a better audience. But the audience that did attend the play thought it was worth the trip. “Overall the production went very well. The cast really respected Mrs. Carthew’s directing ability,” said sophomore cast member Trina Reiner. 22 Student Life all cast solves mystery The cast members of “Who Killed Richard Cory pay attention while reciting a line from the play about Richard Cory's death. After the waiter (Brian McDermott) takes Richard Cory's (Lew Kiefer) order, he is upset while talking with Cory's wife (Amy Nigro). 23 Fall Production 24 ising weight creates panic A diet plan popular with students is drinking diet sodas. Garth Herber. senior, sits down and relaxes with a nice cold bottle of diet 7-UP. One way to diet is to count calorics. Junior Ruth Grim checks up on her favorite desserts to make sure they're not too fattening. Student Life Starving to lose weight has more ups than downs Losers may never win, but they do when it comes to dieting. The images of skimpy bikinis and thin bodies have many people going crazy trying, any way they can, to lose weight. Diet aids, health spas, and aerobics classes pressure many people into drastic measures to lose weight. Even though everyone wants to look good in their tight jeans, the scare of anorexia nervosa keeps some people from becoming “bean-pole” thin. Fitness Team helps me to stay in shape, which doesn’t allow me to get too flabby.” Other dieters just try to take the direct route by skipping meals and only eating low calorie food like fruits and vegetables. The salad bar in the cafeteria helps students maintain their high in nutrition but still low in calorie meals. Diet Coke and Pepsi Light have become two of the more popular drinks due to the weight loss fad. Sophomore Brandie Lloyd said, “The really only way I can possibly lose weight at all is by not eating, except maybe dinner and even then I eat very lightly.” Aerobic classes and health spas such as Fitness America and Allentown Racquctball Club have become overwhelmed with people trying to lose weight by exercising and playing sports. Junior Nikki Kushner explains, “Being on the Most doctors recommend that a diet consisting of three balanced meals a day and an adequate amount of exercise should be enough to maintain a suitable weight for one’s height. Every Thursday, the school cafeteria has a salad bar which makes dieting easier. Junior Beth Seng lakes advantage of it and enjoys her lunch. Some people, like Gianni Ciciliot. exercise during school instead of dieting to lose weight and tone up their muscles. 25 Dieting Senior Anna Hoffman and many more students try to find any room in the overcrowded cafeteria to let loose and dance. Craze-y dancers ‘spin’ into new, break dancing craze Hot, crowded, and loud may describe many city streets, but in this case, the description fits the Victory Dances. With 200 to 375 people attending, the dances were ecstatic and jammed. Sophomore Danny Yannes explained, “They’re wild. Everybody gets really radical.” As one student said, “When all my friends and I get together, we just let loose and have a great time.” “Dancing in the Sheets” would also have been an excellent title, especially for Toga Night. Junior Coleen Stella said, “It’s a way to unwind with your friends after a hard week. It’s a time to go crazy.” Each dance was sponsored by a different organization such as Senior Class or Key Club, and that club, with the help of the “weenies,” originated an unusual type of dress such as Beach Night, Doctor Night, Pajama Night, or Silly Dress Night to increase the spirit of the dancers. Break Dancing hit the Victory Dances just as it did the rest of the country. After the football and basketball games, many students got a chance to show off their special talents. Tarek Al-Fahl, sophomore, felt “The dances are much better than the junior high school dances. No one sits around; everybody’s really into it.” Jodi Hrincevich said, “The dances were usually really fun, but everyone had to be in high spirits.” When basketball season was over and the Victory Dances ended, everybody missed them. Senior Cindy Ruth said, “The dances are a great opportunity to meet people.” 26 Student Life 1 ] t5 opping to different beats 27 Victory Dances S peaking out on fads The accent’s on accessories Parkland’s dress is certainly not dull in any respect, but it’s especially unique whan it comes to accessories. Students think of almost anything that’s not nailed down to accentuate their outfits. Senior Cathy Julo commented, “I really like to wear different earrings because they’re eye catching. “I feel it’s all part of my character, which is being an individual.” Favorite accessories include big earrings, large belts, the ever popular gumies, unusual purses, and almost anything made out of rubber. Senior Sue Munoz commented about her favorite wardrobe accesories, “I never leave home without my gumies. I like how they look and they also give me something to play with in boring classes.” Styles in purses range from a canvas type army purse to plastic purses with faces on them. Also, a belt is no longer used to hold up pants but to decorate an outfit. Large leather belts worn loosely around the waist became a wardrobe neccesity for many students. Seniors Tracey Amey, Maureen Devlin and Amy Lcsnick show off their shoes. Many students arc wearing these type of shoes to show off their own personal style. Senior Lisa Sussman models some of this year's most popular fashions. Lisa dresses in gumies, brightly colored shorts, and unique shoes. Television talk If you ask any student, most would agree that television is a necessity, not a luxury. Television allows people to relax and takes the pressure off. Parents frequently complain that their children watch too much television, but ironically enough, national statistics recorded that the average teenager watches only one to two hours of television per day. Parkland students though, are much more faithful TV fans. Twelve students interviewed said that they watched two to three hours per day. Senior Kyle Reinhard said, “It’s my time to relax from any work. That's how I get my mind off of school.” On the other hand, teachers interviewed said that they only watched about one to two hours per day, and one hour of that time is the news. Mr. Ralph Frederick, history teacher, said, “I don’t really have much time to watch TV. I have tests to make up and grandchildren to visit.” Senior Judy Yander’s favorite TV programs are “Knots Landing” and “The Bill Cosby Show.” “Knots Landing” leaves you in suspense each week unlike the other soaps that are so predictable. As for the “Bill Cosby Show,” it’s one of the few funny shows on TV anymore,” Judy said. Television isn’t as evil as parents make it out to be. It gives news and information; but most importantly, it entertains people of all ages. It’s cheaper than the movies and it’s in the privacy of your own home. 28 Student Life What’s in and what’s out What’s in, or should we say what’s out? It really depends on the individual in question, but most of the time it just takes one trendy person to introduce something new. Guys could really care less, or so they say, but many girls thrive on going shopping and finding new ways to express themselves. The new fall season started off with the ever so popular Forenza sweater. It was getting as though you couldn’t look anywhere without seeing one. Shortly after came the fluorescent attire. Students began to wear sunglasses during classes just so they could see past the glaring students. Despite the fact that many students wear them, seniors Bill Bevan and Judy Yanders commented that they are very tacky and too flashy. Georgio perfume started coming into focus. John Wanamakers in the Lehigh Valley Mall even had a separate counter for the authentic scent. Gumies began to make their way from New York to the good ’ole Lehigh Valley. To match the gumies, department stores began selling exotic earrings. Bruce Springsteen made his way back with a totally new sound; also. Madonna broke through and came out with smashing new hits. There are some things that definitely went out. Like every other trend, they had to take their turn too. Parachute pants don’t seem to be as popular anymore, and fewer striped jeans are being worn by Parkland students. As for music, Michael Jackson doesn’t have the spark he generated last year. Parkland did a roundabout turn this year. In previous years everyone dressed basically the same, now most people add a tasteful touch of their own. Trivial pursuit How many paper clips are bent, destroyed, and mutilated in a year by people on the phone? 15 million. As the Trivial Pursuit craze swept the high school, many students were heard asking these strange questions. When the game first arrived on the market it was almost as hard to purchase as a Cabbage Patch was last Christmas. But pretty soon Trivial Pursuit was being played at parties everywhere. Juniors Lisa Galante and Cheryl Kindt look on as Anne Emmcrth rolls in hopes that she may get a “pic.” The advanced placement class decided to celebrate Christmas with a Trivial Pursuit party. What you can’t live without Many students will exaggerate when asked what they can’t live without, but to them it’s a life or death situation. More than just necessities such as food, water, shelter, and clothing are needed for a pleasurable life. Most students will agrcee that pleasure itself ranks one of the top 10. Mr. Ralph Frederick, sociology teacher, asked his class a simple question, “If you could take only one thing along with you to an island, what would it be?” Many students replied: the opposite sex for companionship. Very few thought sensibly enough to think of the necessities like a gun for hunting. The most popular answer to what students could not live without were oxygen and sleep. Senior Trish Talianek would be satisfied with Hillary’s Rachael’s brownies with hot fudge and Bruce Springsteen. Necessities 1. Oxygen 2. 36-24-36 3. Car 4. Money 5. Sleep 6. Rachael’s brownies 7.

The infant, third in line to the throne, was officially named Henry Charles Albert David. He will be known to his family simply as Harry. The prince arrived at 6:30 a.m. on September 15. All of London seemed elated to hear of the birth of the healthy new prince. USA brings Even for months before the games, Olympic fever had already hit the USA. Los Angeles prepared for the largest Olympics ever and the entire country was getting psyched for the games. The USA team came out on top as expected with 83 medals. Carl Lewis equalled Jesse Owens’ feat of winning four golds. Many excellent athletes did not attend the games because of the Soviet boycott. Nevertheless, the Americans performed as expected. The men’s basketball team won the gold, encountering no strong challengers. Gymnast Mary Lou Retton won America’s hearts by scoring a perfect 10. Retton captured the all around gold and the women won the team title. When everything seemed to be going smoothly, tragedy struck. During the 3000m run, USA’s contender, Mary Decker, tripped and was unable to finish the race. South Africa’s Zola Budd won the race but the controversy remained as to whether Budd had tripped Decker. Musical notes Entertainment left its mark in 1984 in more than one way. Prince, Michael, and Boy George made the world aware of the meaning of the word androgynous. These males exhibiting female qualities became more popular than the old macho image. In fact. Prince’s motion picture, “Purple Rain’’ was the number one movie for weeks. Prince’s album of the same title produced four number one hits. Prince also won various music awards throughout the year. Madonna and Cyndi Lauper both used their unique styles to boost their popularity. Lauper won the Grammy for best new female performer. Movie star Eddie Murphy once again starred in a hit comedy movie. “Beverly Hill’s Cop’’ moved to the number one spot in a matter of days after its release. Bruce Springsteen drew sellout crowds wherever he performed. Springsteen’s portrayal of traditional American values in his music bought fans of all ages. Videos of performers’ songs were the major way to promote the music. MTV lost some viewers to such stations as VH-1 and Friday Night Video Fights. Senior Donna Gerchman still prefers MTV, “I still like MTV the best because they have the best variety of videos, and they seem to be the first ones to show a new video.’’ Some people go! politically involved during the recent election. Junior Jenny Campbell worked hard to help her neighbor Jane Wells Schoolcy during her campaign. Mrs. Schoolcy didn’t win the election, but Jenny says it was a good experience. Ferraro makes history In the 1984 presidential election, Geraldine Ferraro became the first woman ever to run for the position of vice president. Ferraro ran on the same ticket with Walter Mondale. Despite good intentions, Mondale did not capture as many votes as he had hoped for. Far behind in the polls from the beginning. Mondale never had a strong chance. Support for Reagan increased as time went on and when the polls were closed, it was an easy victory for Reagan, winning 49 states, all but Mondale’s home state, Minnesota. 30 Student Life The National Honor Society helped the needy and hungry in our own area by donating the profits from the Volleyball Marathon to support the Allentown Food Bank, which buys canned food for the needy. US helps famine victims More than just the world's eyes turned toward the tragedy in Ethiopia. Millions of dollars worth of aid were poured into the drought stricken country. Various organizations throughout the USA collected donations to buy food for the millions of starving adults and children. This famine had been called the worst in modern history and unfortunately there seems to be no hope of the drought ending. In November, television stations aired films of the starving children in Africa. This is what made the public aware of the scope of the tragedy. Later in the month, popular British musicians grouped together to produce a record entitled “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” The proceeds will all go to help the hunger victims. Within days of the record’s release, stores were already having trouble keeping up with the great demand. Parkland braves coldspell “This is operation snowflake; a service of 79 WAEB — here’s the list of school cancellations ...” On Monday, January 21, a deep freeze swept the Lehigh Valley. It was -9 degrees and the wind chill factor was -45. Even though most other schools in the area closed, Parkland was open and ready for school. Though the chilly weather kept 414 students from attending the High School, the heat and the buses ran smoothly. Many students and parents had complaints that we would freeze to death waiting for the bus. Most of the kids felt the same way as Randy Steinburg, “It was really unfair to make us stand outside freezing.” While others like Tony Lewis thought, “It was commendable that Parkland was prepared for such an emergency.” Along with the record breaking temperatures, the Lehigh Valley also received a few snowstorms. Nimish Chokshi. Carolann Oswald, and Barry Glazier enjoy tubing after one of the storms. 31 Digest Winding up 84 1984—the Year of the Rat was also a year where predictions from George Orwell’s novel 1984 were forcasted to come true. When it came to an end, the world was marked with deaths, tragedies, and special events. The Soviet Union changed hands when Yuri Andropov died and Konstanttin Chernenko replaced him. Still there was talk of resuming arms control between the USA and the Soviet Union. Later in the year. Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau resigned his position and was replaced by Margaret Thatcher. India mourned for weeks over the brutal assasination of leader Indira Ghandi. Tragedies caused thousands of deaths over the world. In Bhopal, India, a Union Carbide insecticide plant leaked poison gas, causing more than 2500 deaths. Even months later, people were still suffering with damaged lungs from the worst industrial accident in history. Another tragedy outside of the US occurred when 241 Americans were killed when a terrorist drove into Beirut headquarters in a truck loaded with TNT. Ethiopia was plagued with famine brought on by a tremendous drought. An estimated 1 million people were believed to have died. In America, the San Ysidro McDonald’s massacre created outrage and sorrow throughout the USA. On a July afternoon, James Huberty, an unemployed security guard, opened fire on the restaurant. After the three hour ordeal, 21 people were dead and Huberty had been killed by SWAT team members. It was also a year for exploration in medicine and science. William Schrocder, 52, became the second man to receive an artificial heart. In February, an American astronaut, Bruce McCandless, literally soared through space without any attachment to the space shuttle Challenger. f{.eviewing second semester Fitness crazy Sitting around doing nothing day after day can bring about some unpleasant surprises - namely, those few extra bulges in the most noticeable spots. There is only one solution to that particular problem and it’s fitness. Mrs. Louise Haines, phys-ed teacher, feels that a complete fitness program should include aerobics, strengthening and toning exercises, and a balanced diet to limit caloric intake. “The most widely accepted criteria of fitness are: endurance, strength, power, flexibility, agility, balance, and coordination,” Mrs. Haines said. Senior Julie Hall teaches aerobics, which is just one aspect of fitness. She began teaching at Slim Time Spa when her manager saw how dedicated she was in her own battle to be fit. Julie enjoys aerobics so much that she now teaches some classes at Lehigh University, too. “I would really like to pursue this career and hopefully I’ll be able to open up my own health spa,” Julie said. Julie feels that aerobics is the best exercise for burning off extra body fat and toning muscles. Senior Julie Hall instructs an aerobics class during gym. She has the experience because she also teaches aerobics at Slim Time Spa and at Lehigh University in her spare time. A switch to eight periods For the first time in twelve years, the seven period day will now be changed to eight periods. Classes in 1985-86 will be held five days a week, and teaching time will be shortened to 44 minutes. This measure was prompted by a desire to improve education, with only three lunch periods, instruction time per week will be increased. Because of the increased credits required to graduate, the eight period day will allow students to accumulate more credits. No matter what a student feels about this new measure, the eight period day seems to be a permanent part of Parkland’s goal to upgrade the quality of education. Layoffs raise controversy March 19 marked an important date for Parkland teachers. On this day students and faculty met at a meeting of the school board to discuss and fight against the possibility of faculty layoffs. Over a month before, the faculty was informed that it may be necessary to layoff an undetermined number of teachers because of declining enrollment in the junior highs. The high school teachers will be the ones to take up the slack because of the seniority rule. Previous to the March 19 meeting, 5 teachers were informed of their possibility of being laid off, and 4 teachers were informed about the possibility of being demoted to part time. The announcement came as a shock to the faculty and student body alike. The careers of excellent teachers were being threatened and the students did not take it lightly. Senior Christina Brinson submitted a letter to the Trumpet and The Call Chronicle newspapers which she protested the termination of the teachers. She questioned whether larger class sizes which the layoffs would create would hinder the quality of education. Brinson’s views reflected the opinions of the majority of students. Under classmen were upset that quality teachers would not be available to them for the following year. Seniors also reflected on the dedication that these teachers have had and the disappointment that they must feel. 32 Student Life Financing a college education is a problem which many students encounter, which may be worsened if Reagan decreases student aid. Senior Wayne Coffin reads about financial aid offered by various colleges. Extra room athletics A problem that Parkland has been fighting with for a few years-inadequate storage area and training facilities for athletics has finally been solved. A field house, at the cost of half a million dollars, will be available to students in the 85-86 school year. The field house will be located on the south side of the football stadium. for The field house will contain a weight room, a dressing room for the football team and offices for the phys-ed department. Most athletes consider the field house a neccesity, the wrestlers especially will benefit by having a special wrestling practice room. Money woes College could be the best time of your life, unless you’re working too hard to pay for it, making it impossible to have fun. With college tuitions, books, and room and board increasing, students must find alternate w'ays to pay for all of this either by working, loans, scholarships, or a ROTC type program. and worries Even loans and federal aid are becoming tougher to receive from the government. President Reagan plans to cut down on federal lending. Senior Leslie Miller who plans to attend college stated, “I really depend on the Guaranteed Student Loan to help pay for my education.” Construction began on the field house in late fall and is expected to be completed in the summer in time for the football season. The field house is one of the biggest athletic investments for Parkland. Senior Tracy Schaeffer earns some extra money working in her free time at the Clothes to You shop at the Village West shopping center. Hanging on to a dollar Many students at Parkland just can’t hang on to a dollar. Students realize after spending half their money on lunch and some goodies from the student store that not much is left for the weekend. During the weekend you may need money for a movie, and what’s a movie without some popcorn and soda? Wherever you do go during the weekend, the money for gas may just wipe you out. Junior Amy Foster said, “Cash burns a hole in my pocket, I just can’t stop spending it.” But others like Sophomore Dennis Decellc commented, “I like holding on to my money, it makes me feel good just to keep it.” Students can find many different ways to spend their money Most of our money seems to end up in a clothing store. But other students will give almost anything for some good ice cream or candy. When Junior Anna Girling was asked where all her money goes she answered, “In one hand and out the other.” 33 Digest iving time to help others Leo Club members and their friends, whom they helped at Fun Night, celebrate by drinking the soda they won out of their mugs. Stacy Wescoe, sophomore, directs a lost parent through the hallways of the school. Key Club performs many services for the school and community. 34 Student Life Key, Leo Clubs sponsor fun activities to help others SUaruHtf If a helping hand was needed, the Key and Leo Clubs were there. Together they joined their forces to sponsor the Dance Marathon which aided the Parkland Alliance for Youth in the fight against drug and alcohol abuse. Even though the dancers only danced for twelve hours instead of the usual twenty-five in past years, they worked twice as hard. Both clubs also helped with the Winter Special Olympics. The students acted as “huggers” for the children skiing. Junior Vicki Brotzman said, “Leo Club is great; it’s fun to help people. The skiing trip was especially fun. It was a good experience to meet the kids and really get to know them.’’ Even though the two clubs are both sponsored by another organization, the Upper Lehigh Lions’ Club for the Leo Club and the Kiwanis for the Key Club, they are still individuals. Leo Club, for instance, escorted children to Fun Night and played many games with them at the different booths. Mr. Bowers, Leo Club advisor, said, “I’m very pleased with the fifty members and especially the officers; they’re very enthusiastic. I’m partically pleased with their altruistic attitudes; they spend a great deal of time with those who are less fortunate.” Key Club, trying hard to equal their sister club, participated in many events also. Helping Santa Claus during his busy season, the Key Club answered letters written by Kernsville kindergarten children. Proving they were more than equal to other Key Clubs in Pennsylvania, they showed up at the convention in Harrisburg. Parkland’s Key Club won many awards including first place gold in efficiency reports. Junior Joy Phillips thought, “The convention was definitely the best. It brought everyone from different schools together to share ideas. There we learned necessary qualifications to make a successful club.” Kristen Krumanocker and Jenni Weber, two Leo Club members, smile as they try to win a prize at the ring toss for their friend at Fun Night. The Winter Special Olympics were helped by the Key and Leo Club. The members acted as huggers for the children who were skiing. 35 Key, Leo Clubs s k triving to improve skills Juniors Paul l.u and Drew Smith, members of the chess club enjoy a good game. Although they were not picked for the seven member team, they still get a chance to play with the team. Mr. John Ritter, English teacher, helps members of the new literary magazine. Tapestry, work on the fundamentals of creative writing. 36 Student Life Club’s interests inspire students to come aboard 'UanMina Clubs with a different touch bring popular interests of students to life. Instead of the “helper” type of club, these clubs encourage students to develop an interest. The Photography Club, new this year, is one such club. Amateur photographers learn the process of developing film and taking quality pictures. The Chess Club, coached by Mr. Ed Buss, offers something different too. The top seven members are chosen to compete against other league members. The team compiled a record of nine wins and two losses. At the final tournament, Mark Levitt placed eighth, Mike Bulger eleventh, Jay Newhard fiftenth, and Jim Weiner placed twentieth. The National Honor Society may be one of the older clubs, but it is important too. NHS honors students whose grade average is a 3.5 or higher. NHS also participates in many activities, one being the Volleyball Marathon. The marathon netted over $1100, which the club donated to the Food Bank. Mrs. Dianne Missmer, advisor, gave prizes for the best dressed team (Schneck Six) and the best playing team (U.S.A.). Senior Danny Medlar said, “It was a great opportunity to be with my friends and raise money for a cause at the same time. The whole team was really glad that we won the title of being the best dressed.” Senior Don Dreschler, member of the Photography Club, needs total concentration in order to have a good picture. Here he practices focusing his camera for a perfect picture. One of the many activities that clubs participate in is fundraisers. Sophomore Aaron Pinkus helps out with the bean bag toss for Trumpet at Fun Night. 37 Clubs Seniors Craig Balliet and Brian Sinwcll perform on saxophones as junior Amy Schaadi holds the music. The trio of Bruce Santore, Jeff Sommers, and Ty Kontir, members of the chorus, sing during one of the skits at the Spring Chorus Concert. Hitting the high notes 38 Student Life Competitions highlight year for band and chorus P vcuitUu Practicing during study hall, and also after school for the opportunity to perform in only a few competitions a year may seem like hard work—and of course it is— but to the members of the choruses and stage band the work is worth it. To be selected for the Parkland Singers Unlimited (PSU) is the highest honor a chorus member can achieve. PSU is a chorus group which mainly concentrates on jazz and singing newer and more upbeat songs. Both the Women’s Chorus and PSU worked toward the New Jersey Competition held May 10 and 11. Favorite numbers include “Second Hand Rose,” “Rain Dance,” and “It’s Raining Men.” Along with PSU, Sophomore, Junior and Senior Choruses are under the direction of Mrs. Ruth Rayna. Most members are determined to be selected for PSU, singing in these excellent choruses give them a chance to achieve this. Stage Band is the instrumental complement of the choruses. Most members look forward to competing against other schools in local and regional competitions. The Band placed first and second in the Allen and Dieruff competitions. They also performed in the Spring Band Concert held March 29. No matter what the result of the chorus or band competitions, it does not take away from the fun and personal satisfaction that hard work brings. Junior Carol Durner commented, “The most enjoyable part of chorus is the people and the friends that I have made; It’s like one big family.” Junior Mike Bascom, a guitar player for the stage band, practices a new number at an after school rehearsal. Members of the Women's Chorus perform a popular tune during the Winter Chorus and Band Concert 39 Clubs Sophomore Julie Bacon makes a mess while she serves snow cones to students at the Silk Squad’s stand. Junior Brian Grom dressed up as a clown during Fun Night to sell balloons for Student Council’s fund raising stand. Games, prizes, and treats create scene for Fun Night tyJinnuUf, Over 3000 people clowned around at Fun Night, Saturday March 9. Some threw ping-pong balls into fish bowls while others ate as much candy as possible. Preparations began about a month before Fun Night when Student Council had to pick a theme and send out applications for stands to clubs. Student Council sponsored the event. Some of the first people to start setting up on Saturday came early in the morning to paint and hang up posters. Some were at the high school from morning until night. By 4 p.m. everything was ready for “The Circus” to begin. Senior Carolann Oswald commented, “Working day and night was hard, but I had a good time anyway.” The basketball and the balloon stand were among the most popular. Sophomore Carl Marci said, “The basketball stand was the best; I love to shoot baskets and winning food and gum is even better.” The sophomore class face painting booth was a popular one among elementary students. Sophomore Simone Makoul, one of the talented face painters said, “It was a lot of fun drawing on their faces, but I was afraid I’d make a mistake.” Since Fun Night lasted from 4-11, the food stands had great success. People ate pizza and soft pretzels. Many customers had pink, sticky fingers all night after eating cotton candy from the Junior class stand. Junior Amy Foster commented, “I couldn’t stop eating the cotton candy—it was great.” The National Honor Society won first prize for the best decorated stand. The NHS horse races were a big event. Second prize went to the Trumpet, and third to the Senior class. 40 Student Life f un under the big top Junior F.J. l.ahovski has perfected his cotton candy making technique at the Junior Class stand. Seniors Mindy Souders and Jill Reinhard work with the computers at the band's biorhythm stand. 41 Fun Night Friends and parents help students tackle problems Other than classes, high school included cliques, best friends, girl or boyfriends, parents, and loneliness. Whether these things are good or bad depends on the individual. A sophomore’s first look around the cafeteria shows half the cliques at Parkland. The same group of kids sitting together at lunch also go to the drive-in or McDonalds together. Students feel more secure when they go to the movies with their own clique. Senior Jeff Stupak feels that “Not everyone gets along. People separate into groups of friends that get along. Cliques let everyone have a good time.” Sophomore Simone Makoul commented that having a best friend is really terrific. It makes you feel more secure and you always have someone to depend on when you need a friend. Many couples roam the crowded halls. You can always tell when a relationship is blooming. They meet each other outside of classes and walk down the hall hand in hand. But when it’s on the rocks, things can change from ‘going out’ to ‘seeing each other.' But aren’t they the same thing? Parents can be a problem during high school. Arguing with them about grades, using the car, and having a later curfew are typical. But when a problem comes along most parents want to help us out. After a few days, sophomores easily pick out their ‘best friends.’ They’re the ones who seem like they're attached by the arm. When you see one, you know the other isn’t far behind. Senior Kelly King and Danny Medlar spend time together in the library. For many, having a boyfriend or girlfriend makes school more fun. Smiles and tears are a regular part of high school. Most seniors only remember the good times. Senior Amy Grube commented that mostly the good times stand out in her mind. Seniors Kelly Rijke and Jenni Smith talk in the upper library during study hall. This is one of the few times students get to talk. 42 Student Life s- .------------------- urviving high school life Juniors Laura Lewis and Chris Davis enjoy some spare time together.

Lew Kiefer, Stephanie Schmchl and Tim Schwarz sing to one another Senior Patty Risley, who plays Maria, stands on her bed while she sings out “The Lonely Goatherd” during a thunderstorm to quiet the children. Audience fills their hearts with ‘The Sound Of Music’ “After working so closely with the same people day after day for about two months, we almost felt like a family when we finally put the play on,“ explained Senior Tammy Richelderfer who played the oldest Von Trapp daughter in this year’s musical. The feeling of a real family, not just one on the stage, was present and felt all during the production. All of the cast members joined their forces and acting talents to put on the best “Sound of Music’’ they could. Sophomore Janet Kuhns, a cast member, said, “It was a lot of work and although sometimes it seemed as if it would never come together, we pul]ed it out by working together.” “The Sound of Music” cast and committees experimented with some different scenery techniques. The balcony was 44 used for a two tier set. Paul Ash, sophomore, a member of the stage crew, said, “It took a lot of work and many study halls to come down and work on it, but I think the balcony was worth it because I think it was a major part of the play.” A walkway into the audience was an original method to attract and include the audience in the play. “Cooperation from the cast was great. Everybody showed up for all the rehearsals and all the committees, like the prop committee, really participated.” “It was just a great bunch of kids,” commented Mrs. Pat Rader, the choreographer of the play. Students were particularly amazed at the top quality job of Patti Risley. One viewer of the play thought, “I was really surprised when I saw my friends up there and how well they sang and acted. It was an excellent musical.” Student Life usic echoes through hills During a dinner party at the Von Trapp’s house.

The 1985 Prom court included Bob Schaffer, Michelle Brusko, Kyle Reinhard, Chris Burke, Toni Matejicka. Christy Salvaggio, Queen Cheryl Kindt, Chris Zciger. Kelly Sorcntino, George Gurnowich, Colleen Stella, and Scott Bartman. The anxiety of waiting for the big night is just so overwhelming that you think you’ll never survive. As soon as the hour arrives, you have regrets; but once you’ve made it through your parents’ pictures, you know Prom night will be a great one. Couples finally get over that traumatic experience and soon find themselves walking through a gazebo to the other side to find friends dressed in their best. In the middle of the dance floor is a pavilion decorated with an array of flowers which make it seem as if “It’s almost paradise.’’ The 1985 Prom was held at the George Washington Motor Lodge May 18. The couples’ dinner consisted of either Seafood Newburg or Chicken Cordon Bleu. Each couple received charcoal tinted champagne glasses and The group “Round Trip’’ was the guest of honor and played many popular songs. Halfway through the evening, the junior girls and their dates promenaded around the dance floor while the judges picked the new queen. Senior Chris Pany, the 1984 queen, crowned Cheryl Kindt the 1985 prom queen. Junior Chris Zeiger escorted her. The rest of the court consisted of Michelle Brusko, Chris Burke, Christy Salvaggio, Kelly Sorentino and Colleen Stella. “I was surprised and thrilled. It was one of my best high school experiences and something I will never forget,” Cheryl said. She also felt that Mrs. Brenda George, class adviser, did an excellent job of organizing the prom. Preparations began near the beginning of the year. Mrs. George spent many hours looking for the perfect band. The food, decoration, queen and court, and entertainment committees worked hard to put the prom in order. 47 Prom Kell King, secretary of the Senior Class, gives red roses to the teachers in appreciation of their help through the last three years. The parents of Lianne Richards showed how happy they were on this occasion by giving her a rose. Graduation marks end of 84-85 school year It was a new beginning for 459 seniors. An overflow crowd packed the hot Muhlenberg College’s Memorial Hall to watch the seniors close the door to their high school career. “Use your accomplishments as stepping stones,” urged President Michelle Farrell as she turned the class key over to the president of the Class of 1986, Cheryl Kindt. The principal student speaker, Mark Levitt, asked the seniors to “go through life as a participator.” He also told a story about a ten year old boy who was shot while serving as a messenger during fighting that solidified the state of Israel. Levitt said the class should equal or surpass the child’s commitment to an early goal. Superintendent Carmen Riola paraphrased the current hit “We are the World” to fit the class, saying, “You arc the world, you are the ones making choices. You’ll make a brighter day.” William Gamberino was valedictorian and winner of the Dr. Miraldo Science Award. Salutatorian Jay Newhard also earned the National Honor Society Award for Mathematics. Other NHS awards were given to: Chris Rcnaud, Lynn Rissmiller, Mark Levitt Claudine Latour, Erich Schock, Darrell Winner, Jamie Wason, James Weiner, Randall Wise, Adena Honig, Joshua Grim, Patricia Risley, and Gregg Best. 48 Student Life Patty Risley and Chris Pany help Karina Cherman with her gown before the ceremonies began. q------- ky eniors set new Marc Levitt, senior speaker at graduation, talked about commitment and going through life as “a participator.

During a cafeteria stud) hall, junior Ricky Harring and a friend succumb to boredom. Instead of studying, they use the time to catch up on their sleep. Students and teachers alike sometimes lose interest in the events of the school day. Senior Wendy Frankcnficld and Mr. Frederick take a short break together. 52 Academics Sleepy-eyed students S truggling to stay awake ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ ■■■■■■■■■■ ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■I r7“' he one day during English class, I fell i asleep. So Jeff Stupak and a couple other people got a belt, and looped it around my belt loop, and then around my desk. When class was over, they woke me up and said, ‘Hey Mike, come here.' and I did; and so did my desk.” Senior Mike Dekrell is definitely not the only student who has difficulty remaining awake during class. However, imaginative students can devise countless ways to keep themselves amused during an otherwise “boring” class. Trish Talianck, a senior, said, “What I actually do is stare at the teacher’s face and try to make them think that I’m paying attention when I’m really thinking about the weekend.” Paul Graff, a junior, said, “I make abstract drawings on my notes, or play an imaginary bass guitar. I also make flip-movies in my vocab book.” One student recalled that he and a friend used to sing during one of his more boring classes and once he was even caught whistling the “Old Spice Tune” in class. Students aren’t the only people who are affected by boredom. Mr. Gerald Farnsworth, mathematics teacher, stated, “Boredom is a state of mind that comes because people can’t accept the challenge to make themselves better. Usually, boredom comes in a subject that you’re not good at. We’re more interested in the things that we’re good at.” Another teacher observed a student talking (presumably out of boredom) to a moosehead that was hanging on the wall. According to that teacher, “You see some pretty strange things sometimes, and you just kind of file them away to laugh about later.” Senior C hristina Brinson, supervised by her cut, attempts to read an entire book in one night. Instead, she is caught cat-napping. 53 Monotony While involved in an Advanced Placement Physics lab. Tina Rauch, a senior, gets out the necessary equipment. AP courses provide a challenge for many students. 54 Seniors Jeff Langer and Erich Schock make use of the air track in the physics room to measure momentum for a lab. Senior Joanne Derricott works intently during a study hall. CP students have to dedicate much of their time to homework and preparing for the next day’s classes. CP seniors Susan Holler, Sherri Ruch. and Kim Van Horn catch up on homework during the last few minutes of English class with Mrs. Carthew. Academics AP courses provide a challenge Because a college education is so important in today’s job market, most students take their course selections seriously. Some of the more academically successful students turn to Advanced Placement (AP) courses, designed to prepare them to take an exam given by the Educational Testing Service. If the student passes the exam with a satisfactory level, a college will often accept the course as a college credit. Reed Saunders, an AP student said, “I enjoy the honors English program because it promotes the development of writing styles through exposure to a wide range of literature.” For those students who don’t have the qualifications for AP and arc still interested in pursuing their education after high school, there are other courses which include College Prep, and gifted high potential. College Prep courses are designed to prepare a student for entry into college. There are no academic restrictions They introduce you to college material on who can take college prep, only that a student have parental permission. Junior Brenton Kidd said, “They (meaning CP courses) get you in tune for studying and introduce you to some of the material you will have in college.” Parkland also offers gifted high potential courses for students with special needs. Studying is a source of pressure for many students. Here, students find out how well prepared they are, as they take a tough test. Senior Garth Herber experiences one of the many pressures of the day, remembering his homework assignments for that night. Juniors Ann Ott and Liz Sarachck show tremendous concentration while trying to translate a Spanish sentence in Mrs. Missmer’s fifth period class. 56 Academics Nailbiting time andling those pressures had a good day except for . . .” This is 1 what may be said because of academic pressures, but many students don’t only have to put up with their pressures at school, but also pressures from jobs, sports, or extracurricular activities. Many students are aware of the pressures they have concerning school work. Others ignore them totally. Tammy Wells, sophomore, said, “I don’t really bother with my pressures. Unless they become harmful to my grades. Then I try to do something about it.” Tracey Maurer, sophomore, said, “I try to keep up with my pressures at school, but it sometimes becomes difficult to keep up my grades.” On the other hand are other students who deal and face up to their school pressures. Shari Brown, sophomore, said, “I make time to do my homework and study for tests, but I still have time for my social life.” They study and finish their homework and it shows on their report cards and also makes them feel good to know that they have accomplished a set goal. Senior Nimish Chokshi, stated, “I just take everything in stride or as it comes. I don’t overwork myself and worry about a major test.” Deadlines are also a very big pressure. When working on Par Key, it is one of the major items. If you miss a deadline, you can slow down the whole process and production of the book. This may result in staying after school during the week until eight o’clock at night or coming in on Saturdays at nine o’clock in the morning. Senior Brian Sinwell concentrates on finishing his homework during a lower library study hall. Completing assignments is one of many common pressures. 57___________ Academic Pressures areer-oriented Senior Patti Auman familiarizes herself with one of the new business typewriters. Patti switched to business classes to prepare for her business education in college. During lunch, senior Traci Dunton organizes Mentos in the Student Store.

Typing is an essential skill in many business-related jobs. During Tjping I. which is a required course for sophomore business students, Tammy Ginder glances at her paper to check for mistakes. 58 Academics Getting down to business According to Mr. Ralph Kidd, guidance counselor, “The objective of business courses is to provide a student with the necessary skills to gain employment in a business-related field.” Mrs. Bonnie Miller, business teacher, agreed that business courses provide an alternative to college but added, “Students planning to attend college will also definitely benefit from a business education in high school.” Senior Tracey Grammes, who plans to study to be a medical secretary in college, stated, “I decided to take business courses to help prepare me for college and develop their skills on updated office machines. Mrs. Miller is convinced that, “Many employers would Business courses help prepare for a career my career.” much rather hire someone who has experience than have The curriculum stresses to train someone.” practical experience. Students Students get experience in the business community through the Business Work Experience Program (BWEP). As part of the BWEP, local businesses hire qualified seniors to perform office duties. Tracey, who participated in this program, said, “The hands-on experience behind a desk helps by giving you a chance to use what you've learned in school.” Kris Haas concentrates on accurately completing his accounting assignment. As a senior taking Accounting II. Kris has had plenty of time to practice his skills. 59 Business Juniors and seniors alike must all endure swim class for one rating period.

Many students are anxious to enter the gym and eager to start class. Other students may have another point of view. They do not like gym and would do anything to make themselves miserable, rather than just trying to enjoy it. Beth Smith said, “I don't like having gym in the morning because you get all sweaty.” Meanwhile Lisa Ritz said, “I don’t like going into the locker room and getting things stolen, but otherwise it’s okay. Other individuals find gym a bright spot in their day. Sue Snyder said, “I enjoy gym because it helps me learn more about the different sports.’ Also, gym class brings out the athletic ability in most people and is good exercise. Juniors and Seniors get to choose what activities they would like to have for gym. Junior Melissa Dille states, “I think gym is to one’s advantage, but I also think they should change the choices every year, for more variety.” Colleen Hogan, a senior, has the same idea and said, “It’s better to pick your own activities because you get what you want.” The students have different opinions on what they like about gym class. Sheila Gerloff, a junior, said, “My favorite activity is definitely swim; I love it and would never miss it, but when I’m not swimming. I’m playing football.” Senior Cindy Kranch said, “My favorite activity in gym class is volleyball.” Both volleyball and football are competitive sports. You only acheive if you have full team cooperation. Sophomore girls enjoy themselves in an everyday gym class by pulling each other and playing with the scooters. 61 Gym Classes C reativity While at Vo-tech, Mindy Sauders, a senior, gives her mother a manicure.

Vo-tech consists of a half day at a home school and a half day at Vo-Tech. It has two programs designed to help vocational and technical, and multi-occupational experiences. The first of these programs is called Multi-Occupational Experiences (MOE). MOE is divided into four courses each consisting of 45 days. Each student chooses four courses from the course of the school year students will make their selections for their entry into Specialty programs. Sophomore Tim Wagner Vr o-tech trains me for a job after high school selection list from which the student will receive an introduction into that particular field. At the end said, “I really think MOE has helped me because it has shown me what courses I’m really right for.” Senior Tom Szczepanski commented, “I really enjoy Vo-Tech because the Vocational training I receive now will help me get a job right after high school if I need one.” Junior David Cope commented, “Teachers never have a problem with the student behavior because they enjoy what they are doing and there’s no need to fight the system.” Using the many facilities available at Vo-Tech senior April Stoltcn designs and draws a functional advertising layout. 63 Vo-Tech At the Parkland Bindery senior Rod Gower gets experience with the seemingly complicated machinery involved with printing. In the co-op program, learning really pays! Senior Terri Horvath, a member of co-op. looks intently down at her work while she types. Terri works at Equifax in Allentown. From the look in his eyes, anyone can tell that Allen Saby is fascinated by the work which he does with a drill press. Although he has always been told not to play with fire, senior Craig Sidleck. a member of coop, demonstrates how much fun it can be. 64 Academics Job training available to all Many educational opportunities exist beyond the walls of PHS. Along with local businesses. Parkland has created a number of half-day programs designed to help students learn trades and gain work experience. Students who are involved with Cooperative Opportunities (co-op), Diversified Occupations (DO), and Vo-Tech usually have a general course of studies. These courses consist of a science, history, and English courses. Although general studies do supply the required courses, students involved in additional courses don’t have an opportunity to take electives and other special courses. Junior Dave Heffelfinger said, “The only problem with general is not having a math course, because it is something you need to get by in life.” He also added, “You can’t take some of the more advanced courses because you haven’t had the necessary background courses.” DO is designed for students who have a special interest in a job field. This program is suited for students who have little or no trade experience. They spend a half day at the high school and the rest of the day at a job. Students who have had trade training at Vo-Tcch and wish to pursue a job during school may become part of co-op. Senior Craig Sidleck said, “Co-op gives you a will to work because you learn and get paid for it at the same time.” n co-op you learn while you get paid As pari of Ihe co-op program, senior Tom Snyder operates u drill press, just one of the jobs he performs during an average school day. 65 D.O., Co-op, Gen. Seniors Tim Cullen, David Dccellc, Christina Brinson and a friend display their snowman. PHS students devise many ways to spend their free time in the snow. Even when school isn't cancelled. Seniors Stacy Saccani. Tammy Yocum. Tim Hurd, Chris Rcnaud, and Junior Bob Dorshimcr can still have some winter fun in the snow. While sledding down a hill on inner tubes. Seniors Carolann Oswald. Claudinc Latour, Nimish Chokshi. and Barry Glazier take advantage of the winter weather. $ 66 Academics Awakening to snow S tudents rush to radios hen the first snowfall comes, it's such a relief to everyone. Whether it’s building a snowman in our backyard, or traveling to join some friends at Apple Hill for some “serious” tubing, we have fun not being in school. Junior Andrea Smith said that “on the first snowfall I get a bunch of my friends together and go to Jack Frost mountain skiing.” Besides enjoying the weather by being outside, senior Judy Yanders said, “Usually when we have a lot of snow and it’s impossible to get anywhere. I just sit around my house and catch up on my soap operas.” Usually we will only get out of school early if we are having a blizzard outside. One time we didn't have snow for a week, yet on February 9 we got out of school at 2:30. This dismissal was because tbe snow that was left on the ground began to drift due to high gusts of winds. When the weather was 45 degrees below zero with the wind chill factor. Parkland was one of the few school districts to have school on the coldest day of the decade, January 21. Dawn Kohler said, “Parkland shouldn't have had school because no other school had it; it was unfair.” Many students did stay home on that day; over 400 students were absent. Despite complaints. Parkland School District was ready, and school was in session. Sophomore Sandy Julo stated, “The only reason why I came was because I had a swim meet but they cancelled it anyway.” Ice skating is a popular pastime among many students. When not busy skating with friends. Senior Wendy Frankcnficld takes time out to pose for a chilly picture. 67 Snow Days Cliffs Notes help understanding So you say you didn’t have time to read “Hamlet” over the weekend? You were too busy with your friends to finish The Scarlet Letter? Well, there is one seemingly easy solution-Cliff Notes! “Cliffs,” as they are commonly called, are small paperback books which contain plot summaries and content notes for prices ranging from $1.95 to $4.75. Although students think Cliffs arc great companions for English class, most teachers do not agree. They believe students should rely only on their brains. What A dreamers! Even the publishers warn students that the notes should not be used as a substitute for reading the book. One senior, who wished to remain anonymous, explained that she owns a whole library of Cliff Notes accumulated since 10th grade, worth a small fortune. cr While trying to gain an understanding of Huxley's Brave New World, senior David Bach reads a summarized version of the novel in his Cliff's Notes. Many students resort to the use of ClifCs Notes when there is not enough time to read the entire work or if the book is difficult to understand. cademics in action 8 students visit White House Eight students participated in the Presidential Classroom held in Washington D.C. The Presidential Classroom is a one week congressional workshop. Juniors Sonya Sbar, Marc Reiner, Nina Meledandri, Janine Mcndola, Curt Jennewine, Andrew Zeitlin, Dino Saccani, and Cheryl Kindt stayed at the Shoreham Hotel. Some of the seminars were on economics, private enterprises, and the political system. All of the students have the chance to visit the offices of their state’s 68 Juniors Cheryl Kindt and Dino Saccani lake lime oul for a picture while ai ihc Shoreham Hotel. They were among ihc eight Parkland students who attended the 1985 Presidential Classroom in Washington, D.C. Pictures will help them remember the fun they had as well as the things thay learned about the government. representatives and talk to congressmen. Junior Dino Saccani said, “Presidential Classroom brought teens together from all over the country to get together to exchange opinions and see the mechanics of the federal government.” The fee was 450 dollars, but junior Cheryl Kindt said, “Some scholarships are available to people who cannot afford the cost.” Junior Andy Zeitlin commented, “The best part of being there was meeting so many interesting people.” Academic Late nights; part of term paper While the student’s impeccable organization and perfect research skills make mistakes in those major projects called term papers a rarity, somehow several common problems arise. As you read through your footnotes, you realize that number 42 has been forgotten. You must then proceed to erase 38 footnote numbers with the hope that you do not wear a large hole in the typing paper. Another problem is realizing that you have a footnote number but no source to back it up. You must then do what every kid does at 2:33 in the morning—invent a source! Make it sound impressive and be sure to have it published in New York around 1966. Then the typewriter develops a personality of its own. One letter always refuses to print. It is never the q or x, but always the e. The paper is soon filled with e's written in black flair. There go your points for neatness. Because spelling is a major consideration, you go back to check it. You soon realize that you spelled your author's name wrong on every page. You were the one who refused to pick Shakespeare, Joyce, or Hemingway and insisted on Nikolai Volkovonavicki, the famous Russian poet. Your English teacher could not even spell it. Looks like you will be up until 4 a.m. Although term papers help to improve many skills required for college work, senior Scott Trinklc quickly learns that weightlifting may also be a needed skill. Scott prepares for a night of black coffee and worn typewriter ribbons as he checks out a few books in the upper library. Bio book (----------------------------- 'N Earlier last year. Biology instructor Duane Ashenfalder took three weeks out of his regular teaching program to participate in the field testing of a new book. The Biology book, published by Harcourt, Brace, and Jovanovich, contained basically the same material as the one presently being used. Mr. Ashenfalder explains that the only noticeable difference is the set up of the text book. A final version was scheduled to be published for availability during the 1985-86 school year. The classes participating in the test were two of his college preparatory . classes. Classroom antics and humor is tested It was 8:10 on a Monday morning, and first period was just about to start. The students were getting their notebooks out for another thrilling lecture on Algebra. Nobody expected the teacher to take off his shoe and explain how his mother taught him to tic it, but he proceeded to go on and demonstrate the rabbit ear method of shoe tying. Believe it or not, it happened. This is just one of the many funny situations that can occur throughout the course of the school term. Funny occurrences can happen at anytime during the school day. Junior Kris Thirion remembered one Spanish class. “Liz DeWild, Geoff Spitko and myself were talking during third period. Mr. Gessner was writing and his pen flew out of his hand. We were the only ones who saw it, so we were the only ones laughing.” When somebody falls asleep in class, not only can it be funny, it can also be embarrassing. But for Junior Dave Slaton, it wasn't. He commented, “I've developed it into an art form. It's something that takes a lot of practice and dedication. I'm the guy to do it. Most of the practice came from fourth period trig.” 69 Digest Flu takes its toll The flu epidemic of Parkland Senior High School happened during the week of January 21 to January 25, the last week of the first semester. During the course of that week many students didn't show up or otherwise left school early. The total number of the students absent throughout that week was approximately 931. Students absent that week spent the next week or two making up missed homework, tests, and quizzes. The students who were absent that week may have not minded staying home, but coming back to school and facing that work can be dreadful. Tammie Clark said, “Staying home with the flu was boring, thinking about all my friends at school. When I came back, it took a very long time to make up all the work because I was out for a whole week.” Students who were not absent that week might not think that it is very fair, but when you really think about it, would you rather sit at home and think about all of the work that you are missing, or would you rather just be all caught up and not have to worry about anything? Many students said that they would have rather been in school and be all caught up with their work, than sit at home. cademics in action Math team places 6th at Lehigh Seniors Erich Schock and captain Darrell Winner aid each other in a perplexing problem during a Math league competition. Darrell had the highest cumulative score of the 70 Parkland participants in the Pennsylvania Math League (PAMl ). Erich also scored very high in the Math league. The 1984-85 Parkland Math Team consisted of seniors Jay Newhard, Captain Darrell Winner, and Erich Schock. During the year, the team competed three times. At Lehigh University the team placed sixth overall in the team race with Jay placing eighth individually. In an oral competition at Muhlenberg College, the trio qualified for the finals and then captured fourth place. In the oral competition at East Stroudsburg University, the team met eventual runner-up Liberty High School and lost a hard fought match. Mrs. Rosanne Heckman, computer instructor and advisor to the Math Team, stated, “I'm really proud of this year’s team! I hope the juniors do the same next year! We accomplished a lot of rewarding tasks and we worked quite hard. They will indeed be a tough team to follow!’’ Erich Schock expressed similar pride in the team’s accomplishments when he commented, “I was glad that we could finish that high in the Lehigh County.” Academics Secret pals create Christmas intrigue i: t was the week before Christmas, and all through the school. Student Council members were busy preparing for Yule. The teachers were waiting by their mailboxes with care, in hopes that their secret pals soon would be there. During the week before Christmas vacation. Student Council members participated in a project designed to show-appreciation for teachers at PHS. Student Council members, better known by the teachers as “secret pals, anonymously placed small gifts in their assigned teacher's mailbox daily. At the conclusion of the project, the “secret pals” revealed their identity by giving their teacher a signed Christmas card. Among the presents which teachers received were chalk, Christmas ornaments, candy. Senior Renee I’icroni catches up on some studying in the lower library. | The Lower library is reserved for seniors and is usually kept quiet so studying can be done. For people and Christmas cookies. Mr. John Miksits received a lottery ticket from senior Ann Toth, his secret pal, along with a note explaining that if the ticket won, they would share the prize. Mr. Miksits explained, “I actually looked forward to the next day to see what I would receive. Mr. Miksits reflected the opinions of many of the other teachers when he commented, “It was a very nice gesture. that wish to converse, the upper library is open during study halls. The teachers just ask you to sign out or present a pass for admittance. Under what circumstances is your homework done? “On my bed with a box of cookies (or two) and my dog, Max, by my side!” Kathy Krempasky, Sr. “Homework? What does that mean? A new word, eh?” Dave Schmall, Sr. “I do my homework faithfully at my new desk so that I will be able to one day be a senior who will not need to worry about his grade point average, but still get into a good university.” Steve Zamborsky, Soph. “When my dad is standing over me with a shotgun to my head.” Jeff Fandl, Sr. “When I’m in that ‘time to do homework’ mood . . . which does not come much.” Leslie Miller, Sr. “Under no circumstance whatsoever!” Tami Nesley, Sr. “I do my homework for the sake of learning and furthering my education.” Jim Farber, Soph. “When I’m getting ready to show my mom all the interims 1 got.” Scott Davies, Jr. 71 Digest This semester course requires both patience and understanding, demonstrated here by Joanne Toll as she helps a kindergarten student. Shelly Farrell watches as a first grader completes a station involving matching exercises. A student's success can be very rewarding, she found.

But how? It’s all part of a student teacher program at PHS. The student teacher program, called the Elementary Teacher Aide Program (ETAP), allows high school students to teach students from the Parkway Manor and Kernsville Elementary Schools every day. This program is available to seniors as a half-year elective. The experience in working with children has a lot of rewards. Joanne Dericott explained, “These kids are great. It makes me proud to see how hard they work.’’ There are some setbacks too. A teacher must also learn to deal with a child’s failure. As Shelly Farrell explained, “I didn’t realize how much patience it took.’’ Other students as teacher programs include aquatic aides and National Honor Society tutors. Students in the aquatic aides program help swimming teachers during classes by teaching basic swimming to those students who cannot swim. Junior Sally Helfrich said, “It’s good to help people, because it’s satisfying to know that you have taught something to someone that will prove useful in later life.” NHS tutors take time off from their study halls to help students who have fallen behind in their classwork. Junior Cheryl Kindt said, “I think the tutoring program at Parkland is effective, because sometimes it is easier for a student to communicate to another student rather than to a teacher.” Michelle Springs helps an elementary student at Kernsville with her addition, while another looks on eagerly. 73 Student Teachers D electa ble During an informal class rehearsal. Theater Arts students practice their Shakespeare. Although fun. Theater Arts requires both time and effort. C hris Kaiser, a junior, pauses in Art class. Many students enjoy the less structured class formal and the chance to display their creativity. Senior Doug Serfass designs his next project for art class. Some students explore the possibilities of a career through elective art courses. Sophomore C hris Haff carefully planes a board in Industrial Materials class, better known by students as “wood shop. 74 Academics Fun electives add credits and enjoyment Faced with the prospect of filling the minimum requirement of class periods a week, many students resort to electives to complete their schedule. Darlene Stauffer, senior, observed “Most CP students take the electives they need.” However, many students regard electives differently. John Petrella commented, “I pick an elective by what I want to fill my spare time, and what I think I’ll enjoy.” Many students, like John, take advantage of the less academic electives. In courses such as Home Economics, Art, or Industrial Arts, students often learn skills instead of facts. According to John, who took Power Technology (metal shop), “I'd rather have an interesting elective like metal shop than a study hall. Betsy Saxton, a junior who took Art, explained, “I like being creative, and you get to be original. It’s not as formatted as other classes.” Paul Graff, another junior art student said, “Art class with Mr. Antonik was really interesting. You learn not only the history of the subject, but the application of it.” Paul decided that a balance between electives and study halls is beneficial. “Electives are more interesting, but I still want to keep some study halls so I'll have less homework at night,” he said. I pick an elective by what I think I’ll enjoy Junior Paula Ziegler concentrates while doing the more delicate portion of her art project. Art students must develop patience and precision. 75 Fun Electives Electives give insight for college courses Electives, although often fun, arc not always intended for that reason. The majority of serious electives are available for a half-year and a half-credit. A few electives are for a whole year and worth a full credit. Most subjects, with the exceptions of Par Key (yearbook). Advanced Biology and Advanced Chemistry (Inorganic Organic), meet five periods a week. Many electives such as General Psychology and Journalism are designed to give a student specific ideas in a certain area. Such courses as Creative Writing and Basic Composition Practice arc offered to students in order to help in already mandatory courses. Senior Bucky Stoudt commented on Computer Math, “It was really harder than than I expected, but it made me more aware of what I can do. Some electives require more than just regular study time. Courses such as Journalism, Theatre Arts and Broadcasting require extra hours for rehearsal and planning. These extra hours may include later week nights and early Saturday mornings. No matter how much a student likes a particular subject, it still comes down to how the course is presented. Senior Beth Kushncr explained, “Sociology is the most interesting elective that I’ve taken. It was more a class discussion rather than just a teacher lecturing, and everyone was contributing to the class. Because it was less structured the class got a chance to interact. Made me aware of what I can do. T edious As part of the course requirements for Advanced Biology, junior Marie Barna completes a yeast lab by cleaning out her test tubes. In elccti c piano class, students have the opportunity to practice individually while listening to their pieces over headphones. Faculty member Carmen Hagelgans conducts a typical psychology class in a lecture form Psychology students learn about the human mind. Sophomore Jim Howells prepares for his engineering career by taking elective drafting, taught by Mr. James Lutz. Electives can be very beneficial. Academics C hris Keefer, a junior, helps a confused classmate during Basic Computer class by explaining the steps necessary to complete her program. 77 Serious Electives Seniors Cindy Kranch and Amy Grubc leave from lower lot so that they can get to work on time.

Sally Berger and Arika V'andcrgrift pause while working on a sheep at Vo-tech. While Vo-tech stresses practical experience, students must still find time for homework. 78 Academics Workin 9 for a livin9 tudents try to keep up Many Students start applying for jobs in their sophomore and junior years, and some jobs start to allect school work done by the students. Students often tend to get jobs which require them to go to work straight after school, then seldom have time to do their homework or study, because by the time that they get home they arc too tired to do anything. Sophomore Debbie DeAngelo said, “There is less time to do homework, because when you get home from work, you just want to sleep, not do homework.” Some people get jobs, but still they keep their grades up in school. It takes concentration and hard work, but it can be done. Sophomore Donna Schuster said, “I have a job, but it doesn’t really affect the school work that I do. I just have to make time to do my studying and concentrate on my homework, and everything turns out good.” Students without jobs seem to have it easier than those people who work for a living. They don’t have to worry about the job getting in the way of their school work. And also, they don't have to constantly worry about doing something wrong to get themselves fired. Sophomore Barb Schocnberger said, “I'd rather just have a summer job, then the job will not interfere with my school work.” Seniors Terry Bono and Janinc Rezzoali study together in study hall. Many working students take advantage of study halls to finish their homework and study. 79 Workin’ School Sports Trojans are leaders in everything!

Teams do things with pizzaz — they deserve a tanding ovatio Athletes at Parkland are tough, like Trojans are known to be. Even during the final minutes of a game they never lose that fighting spirit which gives them an extra edge over any competitor. Under the August sun, football players started their season with double session practices that lasted a total of seven hours. “Those practices gave us what we needed to have a successful season,” said senior player Rich Homa. Over 140 of the strongest teens in the state competed in the Penn State Teenage Powerlifting Championships. The PHS team went all the way and won the title. Team members who placed first included Homa, Tim Smith, and Brian Grohl. Once again the Basketball team, a strong competitor in the East Penn Conference, made its way to District Playoffs. Trojan teams are a tough act to follow. Whether the final outcome is victory or defeat, they always come out the winners.

By far the most challenging and exciting game was against the Whitehall Zephyrs. The Trojans were losing 7-0 at the end of the first half. Soon after halftime, very hard rain caused a delay. When the Trojans came out of the locker room to continue the game, they were a new team. Junior Fred Lahovski said. “When it started to rain, we all got psyched up and we knew we were going to win!” The Trojans scored in the second half on an option play. Salvaggio ran the ball in for a touchdown from ten yards out. Coach Tom Filipovits elected to try for the win by attempting a two-point conversion. The conversion was successful and the Trojans won 8-7. This was the first time in seven years that the Trojans had won over the Zephyrs. Coach Filipovits said, “For some reason the team loves to play in the rain; it really gets them fired up.” Senior team captain Hardy Stanley said, “It was a great and well-deserved victory because we haven’t beat the Zephyrs since 1977. The team practiced very hard to prepare for the game and it really paid off.” The Trojans played their final game against the Emmaus Hornets. They ended the game with a tie of 7-7. The Trojans finished their season with an overall record of 6-4-1. Junior Bryan Grom commented, “I felt that this year was one of learning, understanding and doing. We learned what it takes to succeed, being aware and understanding what to do, and actually doing it . . . every second of every play.” While senior Da� e Smith sets up pass protection, senior Tom Salvaggio prepares to launch a bomb.

T ifficult practices, U inexperiences, and injuries summed up the JV football season. Injuries, usually a big factor, did not hurt them. Practices this season for the most part were tough. They did drills and practiced offensive and defensive plays. They also did sprints to develop quickness plus they did stretches so they did not pull their muscles. Shane Slaughcnhoupt said, “The practices were easy on Tuesdays but hard the rest of the week.” The boys had a few tough competitors and Allen proved to be somewhat of a worthy opponent. Lenny Splane, “Last year they kicked our butt, but this year we made them eat dirt because we shut them out.” Craig Berrier explained, “Northampton was a great game because we all did what we should, so we ended up winning the game.” Sophmore Shane Slaughenhoupt said, “The Northampton game was a very good game because we learned to get our running play together. Other intriguing games were Emmaus and Whitehall. Injuries didn’t play a big factor this year, mostly due to good backups. This year the team thought that the coaches were fairly good. Paul Ash stated, “Coach Ashenfalder and Coach Farnsworth were really good coaches because they really inspired me.” They felt that they taught them a lot of football but also how to accept responsibilities. Most of the team thought it was a good and fun season. Steven Cwitkowitz said, “We had some good games and some bad games, so overall it was a mediocre season.” Berrier added, “We could have been better if we would have played up to our standards, so I think we could have been undefeated.” She mentioned, “It was a fun season and we learned a lot. I guess they were just getting us ready for the next season.” Follow the leader We were considered the underdog all season, but at the end of the season when we beat Allen, ii proved that we were good. Also to get into Districts with the record that we had was good What really would have helped the team is if we had less injuries during the season. Front Row: Missy Dille.

While in Districts, they played two games. Their first game was against Allen which ended 3- 2. Winning this game led them to the second game against Easton where the Trojanettes were defeated 1-0. Their competition was much more difficult than last year, and there is some confusion as to which team was the toughest. Kelly Daniels said, “It would have to be Allen.” Yet Liz de Wild, a two year veteran, said, “It was Emmaus. Emmaus had no weak points in their defense” Even though the Trojanettes made Districts, their season was good but they did not do as well as they had hoped. Even though the team will be losing six players next season, the team is still very optimistic. Sally Helfrich said, “I think we will do real well next season, even though the seniors are leaving. The players on the JV team are working really hard.” With this loss, the season ended with a record of 3-7-8. Helfrich said, “Field Hockey, like almost any other sport, plays each opposing team twice. There are many benefits, one time we played Dieruff and lost, but the next time we were ready for them!” Six members of this year’s team made it to all-stars. They include: First String de Wild, Second String Helfrich, Missy Dille, and Honarablc Mention Gretchen Caton and Miller. Daniels said, “Coach Buehler helped out the team a lot this season; she made pratice a challenge. I think that she did well for her first year as a varsity coach.” “Next year will be tough but I think that it will be worth it,” said Helfrich.

Rauch, one of the top six players in the league, was chosen for All-Stars. Sprains strain season All-Star Rauch leads season The 1984 Volleyball season got off to a spectacular start with a first win over Easton. The scores for the first match were 15-5, 15-9, 15-2. “The girls played well as a team and did everything they learned at practices correctly, said Senior Stacy Saccani. Easton wasn’t one of the most challenging teams the girls ever played, however, said sophomore Chris Yost. The two teams in the league that proved to be the toughest were Central and Becahi. Even though the Trojans were defeated in the matches against these teams, the girls gave them a run for their money every time. The match against Central was the best they ever played, even though they lost, said Yost. “Their offense and defense were both hard to beat. Many players thought the team had the ability to do much better. The girls started the season with much motivation. In the second half, they lost their incentive and drive. The latter part of the season was disappointing because there was dissension on the team, said Saccani. Yost commented, “There were too many clashes of personalities on the team, which carried through into the games. Injuries were another main cause of the unsuccessful season. Early in the season. Senior Michelle Cowling severely bruised her wrist. Sophomore Sandy Potosnak gouged her chin on the floor, and Yost strained her back. Also, Senior Tina Rauch and Potosnak both sprained their wrists. Coach Dave Schaffer commented, “There seemed to be many different lineups this year because of injuries. As a result, the girls never really got to play as a team. The season could have turned out much better if this wouldn’t have happened. Senior Sue Holler was the most improved player on the team. Rauch commented, “Coach Schaffer put time and effort into helping us. He really cared about the team. Senior Trish Talianek serves the ball to score for the Trojans in the game against F.aston.

We had an excellent team and could have gone further in the league, but we had a disappointing second half which ruined our playoff plans. On being asked why this was Parkland's best season ever, senior Tim Cullen replied. “This year we had a lot of seniors and a lot of good ones. Other years we had maybe one outstanding player. This year we had a handful and they played well together We've all played together for a long time. Front Row: Kyle Brophy. Scott Zicgcnfus. Scott Weigel. Chris Hoats, Mike Latham, Jerry Vogwill.

Led by Co-captains Dave Coleman and Steve Fox, both seniors, the Trojans went on to win all of their 18 games. Besides boasting a record number of wins, the team also took on a new coach, Mr. Paul Stewart. The Trojans played each team in the East Penn Conference twice. By the end of the First half. Parkland found itself in an undisputed third place. Their best games included two wins over Allen, and a tie against Emmaus, a team which had been unrelenting in the past. About the Allen game, senior Shawn Brophy said, “They were ranked two places above us and we took them into double overtime. It was our second overtime against a good team.” Unfortunately, the team’s downfall came in the second half of the season. Although the team won five of its eight games, its record just didn’t match those of the competitors. The worst loss was claimed by Dieruff 2-6. This game knocked the Trojans out of competition and later resulted in Parkland’s placing fifth in the league. Much of the poorer second half performance was due to an increasing number of injuries. Missed was senior Marc Luyben, a talented center-half, who broke his collar bone in the first half of the season. Mr. Stewart’s direction was partially responsible for the team’s success. This was Mr. Stewart’s First time coaching soccer. His previous athletic coaching included junior varsity girls basketball and also assistant varsity girls basketball coach. The East Penn league All-Star Team played with the help of Seniors Brophy, Hoats, and Luyben. Brophy scored for these All-Stars. The Lions Club All-Stars included Trojans Brophy, Fox, Hoats, and Luyben who scored for the Lions. On the defense. Senior Scotl Hoats steals the ball to keep it within Trojan possession.

Hard work Practice makes n unning laps, lifting weights, pushups, situps, and pullups; all of the typical doings of sports practices, the coaches work you hard for one reason: to prepare you for the games ahead. Junior Jon Seckinger, a tennis player, said, “Mr. Smith wanted us to be more consistent so basically we practiced on being consistent and not attempting impossible shots.” Junior Mike Dominy said, “Track practice was very organized, which made us feel more like a team.” Junior Eric Johnson commented, “The wrestling practices were disciplining and brought the team together.” Although every sport has practices, swimming practice seemed to be very enthusiastic. Sophomore Kevin Rcinhard mentioned, “The swimming practices attempted to pull the team together and receive the best quality. Even though time was short, I feel that with the help of the practices, I gave my best.” Sophomore Bob Kushner said, “Practices were hard, but whenever I got tired I just hid in the perfect bathroom.” Sophomore Bob Mack stated, “Basketball practices were hard, but influential to our game. Practice made perfect!” Gary Bottjer said, “The practices helped improve our game. Failing to prepare is planning to fail.” Sophomore Aaron Pinkus added, “Though practices were hard, I felt we learned good defensive and offensive techniques, and were taught an invaluable lesson in sportsmanship through our coaches.” Mr. Tony Marsicano, coach, said practices were mostly for teamwork, fundamentals, individual skills, and discipline. Football player Craig Berrier said, “The practices were hard and challenging, although some were boring, but we needed to improve our game. Saturday practices were sometimes inappropriate because they interfered with my social life.” Mike Latham said, “Soccer practices were lengthy and boring, and we had to run for four hours.” 93 Practices Senior Jeff Stupak increases his lead during the Bethlehem Catholic meet.

Catching Up District 11 Champs The efforts of the boys and girls Cross Country teams pushed the boys to their first District 11 Championship and the second year girls team to a 9-13 record. An eight-meet winning streak led by seniors Bob Jones and Jeff Stupak and junior Brian Cline, the top runners on the team, contributed to the championship. “Our toughest competition this year was against Allen. Going into districts it was between Allen and us for the title. From outstanding performances by our whole team, we won!,’’ said Jones. In the AAU Junior Olympics, Junior Rusty Erdman took 14th place out of 60 runners, Stupak placed 11th, and Jones came in third. This qualified Jones for the national championship in Texas, but he did not attend. The second year girls team finished its season with a commendable record. Even though the season went fairly well, seniors Sue DeCenzo, Debbie Coblentz, and junior Joy Andrews and Alicia Kurtz suffered from injuries, most of which were shin splints that led to stress fractures. “The Easton course proved to be the most difficult. We had to run through a hilly nature trail twice and run up several hills, commented Andrews. — - = Follow through Boys Girls PHS OPP PHS OPP 23 32 Easton 37 21 20 35 Central Catholic 38 19 21 34 Liberty 19 36 18 41 Whitehall 33 25 31 24 Allen 40 21 25 32 Emmaus 42 18 27 29 Northampton 41 20 22 37 Freedom 23 33 32 23 Phillipsburg 39 19 16 49 Bccahi 17 39 23 33 Dicruff 19 36 17 38 Liberty 18 38 25 31 Easton 32 23 15 46 Whitehall 24 31 29 27 Allen 38 23 25 32 Northampton 40 21 23 33 Emmaus 43 18 19 37 Freedom 23 36 30 26 Phillipsburg 41 18 26 45 Bccahi 16 41 24 33 Dicruff 16 36 20 37 Central Catholic 40 16 Boys Record 17-4 Girls Record 9-13 95 Cross Country Follow the leader Wc had an average reason with a 7-9 record.

Shoup also played in the Mayor’s Invintational and won it by a considerable margin. Shoup shot a 75 in cold rainy weather to beat the rest of the field. He was the only member from Parkland to attend. Districts were played at the Northhampton Country Club. Shoup scored a combined 175 for the two rounds to finish 13 out of 60 golfers. Shoup commented on his play, “Although the competition was tough, I felt I could have played much better and maybe even made it to states.’’ The golf team ended its regular season with a 7-9 record. The record could have been much better, but the team lost too many close matches. One of these matches was played against Liberty and Freedom. The Trojans lost to Freedom by a close margin of 410 to 405. Senior Tim Hurd said, “We had an average season with a 7-9 record. A lot of our matches were close in which we wound up losing by less than five strokes. If it wasn't for Coach Lindenmuth the season would not have been as exciting. He kept all of our spirits up whether we won or lost.’’ The top three golfers were Shoup with an average of 74.400, Senior Kevin Reichard, 84.715, and Hurd, 86.375.

The team’s record has steadily improved in the last two years. Their first five games were one win after another. Just as it was looking good, something happened. The fifth and sixth games were both losses. The fifth game was against Becahi and the sixth game was against Freedom. But that didn’t get them down and they did it! Winning was all the team could think of, and from game eight on, that’s exactly what they did. “Our match with Stroudsburg ended up being closer than we expected. It was exciting through the whole match, which we ended up winning 4-3,” said Tama Stein, a senior on the team. This year’s team made it to Districts. The competitors in the singles match were Tara Louchran and Michelle Davies, who got knocked out in the first round. The doubles players were Sarah Kreithen and Davies, once again. They made it to the fourth round before they were defeated. Also playing doubles were Christy Salvaggio and Louchran, who lost in the third round. Stein said, “Through the season the whole team has shown a lot of improvement. Next year Parkland should have a strong line up. They have a lot of potential.” Laura Wasson, a newcomer said, “Next year should be a good year because we’re only losing two players,” which means most of the top players will still be on the team. “Whether losing in tennis or losing in basketball, once you’ve lost a match or game, the next time you play you have more desire to win,” said Stein. That’s how the girls team operates, and it shows. Maybe this is because of the hard “workouts” the coach gives the team. First they stretch “lightly” to prepare for what is to come. Next they run laps around the football field, and if that’s not enough, they have something that has been given the nickname “suicide” by many sports.

The score was tied until the last few minutes of playing time when the Freedom team scored a goal. This was a bitter pill to swallow considering all the hard work that went into the first game of the season. This was such a low point that the team put forth some extra effort and beat Whitehall 1-0 in the next game. The season had more downs than ups, as they lost, tied, and lost again. Mike Latham, sophomore, said the team put in a lot of miles running to get in shape for the season. This proved to be an asset to the JV team’s playing. Sophomore Kevin Roth said, “We had a good season this year. We became really prepared for varsity next year. Being on JV was a good experience.” The JV field hockey team had a very good season, coming in fourth in the league. The start of the season consisted of a four-game winning streak. This was the highest point in the season. The best teams in the league consisted of Emmaus, Easton and Northampton. The girls lost to Emmaus, but beat Northampton soundly with a score of 10-0. Kris Rotz, junior, said that Emmaus was the hardest game of the season, while Liberty was the easiest. Laurie Hunsicker, junior, said, “The team was pretty good, considering we had a new coach.” That coach was Miss Beiler, who took over the JV Field Hockey team just this year.

With such highly rated teams as Allen, Easton, and Whitehall, the Trojans were eager to initiate the season playing as a tight, well-controlled team. The boys opened the season against Nazareth, who were only the first to fall under Parkland's continuous struggle for league placement. Led by veteran coach Bob Greacen, in his eleventh year with boy’s varsity basketball, the hoopsters landed a record season of seven wins and four losses. Their persistent attitude helped them achieve a placement of sixth in the EPC, and moved them right into playoff competition. Parkland began its season with seven independent games and the Northern Lehigh Christmas tournament, in which they placed third. Of the seven independent games, the Trojans claimed five victories. The rest of the initial conference went very well with wins against such teams as Northampton, Easton, and another independent team, Wilson West Lawn. The boys did have a major problem with foul shots early in the season which cost them a loss to Allen. Senior guard Kevin Reichard said, “We only made 30 percent of our foul shots. It wasn’t a result of any individual or inadequate practice; it was just something that happens to a team every once and a while.” One of the best games of the season was Parkland’s match- up with Central Catholic. Senior center Keith Hobson summed up the game in this way. “Central was in second place when we played them and we really wanted to beat them. At that time we were 3-3 for the season with five tough games left to play. The win against Central made the rest of the season a little easier, especially for districts.” The game proved to be a thriller with the Trojans winning by a close score of 55-51. Parkland’s match with Dieruff was even closer with a hair-raising climax of 44-43. As senior forward Scott Bartman grapples with a Northampton opponent, senior center Tom Salvaggio and sophomore Carl Marci wait for a possible rebound.

Bevan has been on the Varsity team for one year. Senior Joann DiCarlo blocks her Red Rover opponent from passing the ball to one of her teammates. The Trojans defeated the Red Rovers. A Twist of Fate Trojanettes Bounce Back Sometimes, luck can really help a team. For example, during the first girls basketball game against Becahi, senior Joann DiCarlo scored to tie the game with one second left. “I was totally off balance and probably even had my eyes closed. I wasn’t even squared to the basket. That shot was the funniest ever. It was really lucky,” commented DiCarlo. During overtime, Bccahi scored 2 points and Parkland scored 6 to end the game with a win for the Trojans. Senior Kim Legg thought the season “went as we expected it to. We had trouble in the beginning but came together as a team in the end.” DiCarlo added, ‘‘We had a pretty good season for an inexperienced team.” When the Trojans played against Freedom the second time, they began to play as a team. The loss to Freedom by one point was disappointing because the girls played their hardest. Because they lost, they were ousted from the District 11 Championship playoffs. Senior Legg was having knee problems in the beginning of the season, but none of the games were really affected by this. The absence of injuries, in fact, played a big part in the good season. The team praised Coach Richard Fatzinger. “We owe a lot to him for his patience and dedication. I think he’s the best coach in the Lehigh Valley,” said Legg. DiCarlo said, “He wasn’t only a coach; he was a friend.” Senior DiCarlo held the team together by being the point guard. “I learned to keep cool under pressure, but I think I could have done better,” said DiCarlo. Sophomore Sherri Bevan was also an important member of the team. “Sherri did a really nice job this season. She shot for baskets when the team was in doubt,” said DiCarlo. Though some team members singled out players for compliments, senior Jill Stetz didn’t agree. She said, “the whole team was outstanding—everyone was good in their own way. Different positions can’t be judged against each other.” 105 Girls Basketball Miry Blazofsky, u freshman, fights for the ball in a JV game against Easton.

Parkland dominated during the whole game, never lagging behind. The same situation occurred when Parkland met Liberty, at Liberty. The final score of the game was 40-31, in Parkland’s favor. Many members of the Junior Varsity team got experience as Varsity players. Kristy Simock and Kathy Hartman, sophomores, and freshmen Sue Salvaggio and Mary Blazofsky were these players. They mainly substituted for Varsity players when one of them fouled out, or were put in the game as part of a second string to end a game. Blazofsky commented, “I think it’s really great to be a part of a program like this. It’s a good experience to be able to play on both teams and be coached by different coaches.” The boys JV season likewise got off to a good start with a win over Northampton, 95-57, in their third game. Another outstanding win for the boys’ was against P-burg, 71-62. “The wins over those teams were really surprising to the whole team,” commented Matt Kurtz, sophomore. The boys team was basically made up of sophomores. There weren’t any freshmen team members, and the JV’s didn’t help the Varsity team.

A variety of students, some in togas, show their support at a varsity basketball game. Each game offered a different theme, so students can show their school spirit. 108 Sports The Trojan War Football vs. Basketball Much controversy has always surrounded the relative popularity of basketball and football at Parkland High School. An energetic sports fan commented, “I usually enjoyed interscholastic basketball games more often than football games because basketball is more exciting and action-packed. I cannot remember sitting through an entire football game without being bored off my tutu.” Basketball tends to be more popular because it is indoors and more fans are there to watch—they almost have to. Football is more a social function; students really don't sit and watch, but instead walk around and socialize. An anonymous football fan said, “I love football games beacuse it’s played outside and you aren’t made to sit down. 1 just walk around and talk to friends or, better, watch the football players run around in their tight pants. I really don’t pay attention to the game that much.” It is obvious that basketball games are a lot more energetic. The reason is probably because the fans are in one space and it becomes almost impossible not to join in with the cheers. At each basketball game this year there was a costume theme, such as beach dress togas, pajamas, and Parkland school colors. One fan commented, “It’s really fun to dress up in costumes at the basketball games because it even gets you more involved. My favorite was the togas. It is so funny the way the opposing teams fans look at us. I really would love to know what goes through their minds.” Usually, after each basketball and football game, there was a school dance.

With a second year coaching staff of Mr. John Schadt and Miss Bonnie Bortz, and the return of many of last year’s top swimmers, the Trojans had no trouble landing a 10-1 season. Their single loss was to the hands of Emmaus, who only beat the girls by 19 points. The first half of the season went quite well, with wins over Allen, Northampton, Easton, and Saucon Valley. Then came the defeat to Emmaus. “Our defeat at Emmaus was our only loss, so of course it was disappointing. However, due to the competition, many swimmers had their best times of the season. Emmaus is one of the top teams in the state and most of their swimmers swim all year round, and have a lot more experience than Parkland’s team. Therefore, I think that our team did a great job and our whole season turned out to be the best year Parkland has had in a long time,” said Shelly Farrell. After the EPC was over, many of the girls moved on to district and state competition. Senior Tami Nesley and junior Denise Miller represented Parkland in the diving portion of the District XI Championship. By the final round, Nesley had placed fifth overall, with Miller in eighth. Nesley’s reaction to District was, “I had a lot of fun at Districts because I saw friends from season the other teams and we really supported each other. I had a chance for third, but I'm happy with my performance.” In the District XI swimming competition, senior Shelly Farrell placed third in the 100 yard breaststroke. Farrell also helped the 700 medley relay team, consisting of herself, senior Springs, freshman. Coffin, and sophomore Wasson. This moved them into state competition. States proved to be a disappointment. Farrell ended up with a respectable ninth place. in Girls Swimming Follow the leader “I think that our season did not exemplify the ability that we had.

With a score of only a 1 point difference, 84-83. The Trojans were very upset about the loss. They really tried hard. Dix said, “I really thought that we could win the match, it was real close, we gave it our best shot which almost paid off.” The diving and swimming teams practice at least two hours a day, five or six days a week. The diving team practices all of their difficult routines, while the swimmers swim laps, expressing their difficulty in mastering all of the strokes. Tim Oliphant, a sophomore, said, “We did better than we expected this season. We really worked together as a team and gave it all we had.” The team’s highest scoring match was against Saucon Valley.

Coach LeVan gave everyone a chance to show what the Parkland team is made of.” Liz de Wild, a junior, and also one of the many newcomers to the team, said, “All of the coaches were real good. We all got along real well and they never let us down, we could always depend on them, and that’s what really made the team stick together.” This year’s team had a coaching staff which consisted of Mr. Scott LeVan, who was head coach for the first time. Also Mr. Claroni and Mr. Mondschein also helped coach this year’s team. The coaches had a lot to do with this year’s team sucess.

Coach LeVan said, “With the injuries being at a low level as they were, it really helped the team. In ways, the team was virtually a stable and very strong team.” De Wild commented, “I hope next year the girls track team will be as successful as they were this year.” ■ Follow the leader In the East Penn League.

Sophomore Todd Miller went 3-for-4 and used a sacrifice fly to bring in the winning run. The Trojans scored seven runs in the first two innings because of ten walks. Senior Brian Kuhns gave up 10(runs in seven innings. Kuhns pitched well the first two innings then gave up five runs in the third. Kuhns commented on the game, “This game could have gone either way; not only were the playing conditions terrible, but the baseball itself was heavy because of the water. Parkland’s highest scoring game was against Emmaus at Emmaus with a 14-8 win. The Trojans also beat the Hornets 6-1 at home by scoring all their runs in the first three innings. The Trojans’ biggest disappointment came against Philiipsburg. Playing on New Jersey soil. Parkland came ahead by three runs in the first two innings.

We were strong from players I-10.“ The top four seeded players included Colin Delaney, David Brooks, Jason Giaquinto, and Jon Seckinger. Brooks said, “It was exciting because it seemed so natural to go out and win each match.” Brooks also said, “We had a great coach, who put a lot of time into us.“ This was the second consecutive year that the team won the East Penn Conference. Jason Giaquinto commented on the win and said, “It was not just a one-person victory, it was a team victory.” The team has not lost a league match since a loss to Freedom in 1983. Brooks commented on the team’s success, “It was the greatest season we ever had at Parkland and we proved we’re the best in the league.” Not only did the whole team do well, but their were also individual achievements. At districts, Brooks and Delaney got runner-up for district doubles and earned a place in the state meet. Brooks said, “We were seeded second in doubles, so it wasn’t a surprise to make it to states.” At states they made it to the quarter finals, where they had to play the top-seeded team. Their loss was 7-5, 6-3, and Brooks remarked that they, “did really well.” Coach Smith said, “I’m very optimistic about next year because we have a lot of underclassmen who will hopefully form a great team for the next couple of years.” When asked what goal he is setting for the next two years on the team, Giaquinto said, “to pursue my ability to its highest level.” Though Coach Smith looks toward the future optimistically he said, “I’ll miss the contribution from the four seniors: Chris Vanck, Gary Davidowich, Marc Levitt, and Nimish Chokshi, who did excellent jobs.” Boys' Tennis PHS Follow through OPP 1 Northwestern 4 3 Southern Lehigh 2 4 Pennridge 7 II Dicruff 1 1 Allen 11 7 Phillipsburg 0 0 Central Catholic 1 15 Easton 4 5 Northampton 8 3 Bccahi 4 2 Freedom 0 3 Emmaus 2 4 Whitehall 5 5 Liberty 0 24 Dicruff 1 3 Allen 11 1 Phillipsburg 4 1 Central Catholic 0 14 Easton record 10-9 4 Follow the leader Senior Ann Bauer, catcher for the Trojancttcs. received the best Senior Athlete award, and was chosen to be a member of the Senior All-Star Team.

They showed the Kids a good defense, even though they lost. “Northampton has a good team, not just in the field or at the plate—they have an all-around good team,” said sophomore Chris Yost. The year was mostly a rebuilding one, because eight of the starters from last year graduated. The girls’ success partially stemmed from the help of their coaches, Mr. Glenn Ray and Miss Bridget Pfeiffer. Batting skills were the most concentrated on at practices, but they also spent time fielding. Junior Sally Helfrich commented, “Those practices paid off near the end of the season. We really improved.” The girls played well as a team, and they never gave up on each other. Many of the softball team members were top performers. Senior Ann Bauer was awarded the best senior athlete on the team, and was also picked to be on the Senior All-Star team, along with Jill Stetz.

We improved a lot over the team we had last year.” One of the most difficult games for the team was against Whitehall, which is probably the best team in the East Penn Conference. Mike Pfeiffer, sophomore, stated, “Our game against Whitehall was the worst because of the extremely cold weather. It was windy and none of the players could get a grip on the ball ” Their game against Allen was also pretty hard for the Trojans, but they came through and won the game, 13-8. Northampton was one of the easier games for the Junior Varsity team, which they won, 14-3. The Junior Varsity Softball team ended its season in style with a surprising win over the Allen Canaries. In the beginning of the game, the Trojanettes were losing. However, during the latter part of the game. Parkland came back and defeated the Canaries, 8-6. “The game was good because we finally did win, and also because the Varsity team was there to cheer us on. That made us want to win even more, commented Kathy Hartman, sophomore. Through many difficult afterschool practices, the team came together and learned to respect each other’s playing abilities.

Here she is doing a pullup during one of the teams' killer practices. 128 Sports These trophies, plus the fact that PHS consistently ranks as one of the top fitness teams in the country, prove that Parkland is a tough act to follow. Senior Kim Miller assists senior Greg Schifko in doing situps at a practice. Team members arc required to do at least 600 situps every practice. Conti places second PHS Fitness team takes third No pain, no gain—the physical fitness teams’ motto. In the nationals competition, the Girls and Boys each placed third in the nation. The Marines who judged the competition said that Parkland had the best form out of all the teams competing. “Without Mr. Levan, we wouldn’t have received third place. He really pushes us hard during killer practices,” said Alicia Shear, sophomore. “Everyone on the team appreciated the time and effort Mr. LeVan spent in making our team a winner,” commented Chuck Yost, Senior. Shear and Yost were two of the twelve candidates who earned their way to Nationals, which were held in Camp Pendleton, California. Over 4000 teams attempted to be there, but only the top 20 were allowed to compete. Close competition and a lot of team work resulted in a third place title for both the boys and girls. Junior Gina Conti placed second in the nation individually out of 20,000 girls. She scored 393 points out of a possible 500. To score 500 points, a competitor must complete 100 situps in 2 minutes, 30 perfect pullups (no swinging, arms locked in down position, and chin over the bar), a 44 second shuttle run, a 9’10” standing broad jump, and 60 perfect pushups (girls: chin must meet judges fist, boys: chest must meet judge's hand). During state competition, held at Pottsville, PA, both the boys and girls came in first place. In the individual boys competition, senior Chip Hanna and junior Kevin Oldt tied for first place. In the girls individual competition. Parkland took places one through eight. The girls who accomplished this arc Gina Conti, Dale Mazer, Sue Smith, Debbie Felner, Alicia Shear, Joelle Tallon, and Nikki Kushner, respectively. “After the States competition, we began to realize how good we could be if we continued to work,” said Mr. LeVan. The team members practiced every Tuesday and Thursday night for two hours. Before going to California, however, the team would practice in the morning 6:30 until 7:45, before school began. 29 PHS lends a helping hand The winning USA team, consisting Bartman. and Garth Hcrbcr, displays of Kevin Rcichard. Keith Hobson. their comaradcric and team spirit at Carl Marci. Tom Salvaggio. Scott the volleyball marathon. For eight hours 126 students played volleyball to help the starving. It was a fun-filled volleyball marathon, donating the money received to the Allentown Food Bank. National Honor Society sponsored the event, which was held in the gym. 21 teams participated, each with six members. NHS supplied pizza for lunch and a fruit snack in the afternoon. Kevin Reichard, Garth Hcrbcr, Scott Bartman, and Keith Hobson. The best dressed team was the Schnecksvillc Six, with the 7-ups coming in a close second. Before the marathon, Mr. Donald Fleming talked to the participants. He reminded them of the rules and conduct which should be followed for the day. He also pointed out that he wanted the students to have an enjoyable day. Nearing the end of the marathon, a championship game was played. The Hoopsters won the game, ending the day undefeated. The team included Tom Salvaggio, Carl Marci, Each player was responsible for getting at least five dollars of pledge money. The players enjoyed the day and thought it was an event which should continue in years to come. Rituals, superstitions—they go along with the game The coin toss is another act at the beginning of some games. In football, the toss decides whether a team will kick or receive first. Even if they occur in an athlete’s quiet moment or in the team’s final shout of victory, riutuals are an important part of any sport. However, they often remain unnoticed. Athletes go through a lot of training and hard practices for every game or meet, and special moments by themselves or together can make the difference between a victory or a defeat. member lines up and shakes the other team's hands. Then the coach takes the team aside to point out some important factors of the game. Athletes often must psych themselves and their team members before a game. In wrestling and basketball, the team cheers on their teammates one by one. After a meet, swimmers will do a chant to cheer up the losing team. Many athletes are quite superstitous, so they bring good luck pieces such as a stuffed animals. Senior Shelly Farrell, a prominent member of the swim team, always has her alligator and two mice to watch her swim. Whether rituals are required for a sporting event or not, they are a necessity for every athlete. The National Anthem is the bigest ritual, marking the start of most sporting events. The handshake cither occurs at the beginning to wish one another good luck or at the end to show good sportsmanship. At the end of a football game, every team Tom Yankanieh, Mr. John Toggas. Jeff Miller. Chris Cook, and the rest of the wrestling team line up for a flag salute before a match. S Warm-up exercises prevent athletic injuries Warming up is a very important aspect of any sport. Sonya Frant . a member of the track team, docs an Warming up before a sport is a must for all athletes. It is important to do warm-ups to get your body ready for the rigorous workout it is about to face. Bodies that have not been properly warmed up arc more prone to pulled muscles, twisted ankles, and tom ligaments and tendons. The body also tires faster if it has not been prepared before rigorous exercises. Most practices at Parkland begin with at least a ten minute warm-up period. This includes stretching exercises to prepare the muscles for various movements. Calisthenics are also part of warming up. These are important to warm the muscles of the front and back of the thighs, the calves, lower back, the forearms, and the upper arms. Push ups and leg lifts arc both warm-up exercises. Pushups are upper arm and pectoral exercises, where the body is in the supine position facing the floor with the palms of the hand positioned a shoulder's width apart. Keeping the back straight and the head down, the arms should be straightened and then bent again. Leg lifts are a stomach exercise with the stomach in the supine position and the head facing upward. The legs arc straight and lifted at 30, 45, and 90 degree angles and then lowered again. “Suicides” are a popular warm-up exercise with coaches. They are run only after all stretching is done. This is a very unpopular exercise with athletes because of its tendency to promote utter ehxaustion. Although most warm-up exercises aren't fun and games, they help to prevent injury so athletes can enjoy their sports. exercise. Check it out The year in sports After an injur) at the Hmmaus football game, ambulance crew members carry senior Tom Szczepanski off the field. This was the last game of the season. Accidents plague year Nobody’s perfect, and no year is perfect. Like most years, 1985 was not free of athletic injuries. Sophomore Mike Peiffcr broke his wrist sliding into second base playing baseball. He said, “I was stealing and I just dove into the base and cracked the bone.” Eric Foster, also a sophomore, hyperextended his neck at football practice. He said, “Getting an athletic injury is often frightening because it makes you wonder if it’s going to hinder your ability in the future.” Another football injury happened when Jerry Micco was “cut down” from behind. Micco believes that injuries are sometimes totally unavoidable. “There’s just no way of stopping it,” he remarked. 131 Sports Fun Night is a good time to see people. Junior Glenn Smith, a member of Student Council, dressed as a clown to sell balloons during the evening. Athletic trainers are a big help to coaches and players alike. Senior Kim Miller tapes Jim Yeager’s wrist before a game. Playing frisbee is one way to relax over the weekend! Senior Elizabeth Martin and her friend Tasha have a friendly disagreement over who gets possession of the frisbee. 132 ' People ■[Sill] I] [|p] Kids at Parkland love to have fun. Paul Marstellcr, Danny Yannes, Scott Samuelson, Jamie Wasson, Dan Levenson, Tim Schwarz, and Jeff Burdick let loose in their togas at a basketball game. Parkland adopts new eight period day J y 1 or many students school is often F “just the same old routine,” but prior to the 1984-85 school year, the administration initiated some changes which made things a little different at PHS. These changes included measures which affected teachers and students alike. Specifically, they included provisions for additional storage space at the high school, and also provided for the continuance of the In School Detention (1SD) disciplinary program. Every student's daily routine was also altered by the institution of alphabetized homerooms. Dr. Mauro. principal, explained that students were assigned to homerooms alphabetically because it was “more democratic to have everyone report to homeroom each morning.” In addition to this, it also provided a more efficient method of taking attendance and accounting for students. One major change, which was considered an improvement by faculty members, was the relocation of the copying machine. After the machine was removed from the main office, not only did the noise level in the main office decrease, but teachers no longer had to wait in line to make copies. Mrs. Brenda Reimcrt operated the copy machine and completed the teachers’ requests. VO Svo V Mr. Carmen J. Riola Superintendent B.S. Kut town M.A. Lehigh Mr. Lee A. K reidler Asst. Superintendent A.

When you think of driving, you think of getting up early, wasting gas, and long walks from upper lot. Vet if you have a car, you probably use it to drive to and from school. Why? Because most students believe taking the bus is Uncool. Buses do not have the advantages that cars do. You cannot play music, you cannot get home in time to see General Hospital, and you cannot talk to your friends without twenty people hearing. A lot of time is wasted on buses going far back into nowhere to drop off one person. Senior Darrell Winner said. “ do not have time to waste on the bus. Also, many students have jobs after school. As for reasons for taking the bus. there are not many. Mainly, students ride because they have no car or they can not afford gas. Most students who take the bus would prefer to drive. Patrick Buxton Anthony Cant panel I A. Brooks Campbell Ralph Campetti rv, in «� • e . 1 v v One courageous student admitted the truth I like to ride the bus because the driver is sexy. She prefers to remain anonymous. Another problem that arises with driving is parking. A student who drives is limited to either the upper or lower lot. In the lower, the middle section is strictly for Coop students. If a CP student is caught parking in the middle, he can bet on receiving a warning or a detention. Usually, if a person arrives later than 7:25 AM, he is forced to enter upper lot. This involves a long walk through a muddy field, which is not pleasing to those wearing nice shoes. Some buses also get to school quite late, giving the student only two or three minutes to get to their locker and homeroom. This does not allow any time for last minute studying before class or talking with friends. Follow uP Denise Berger: R.D. 1, Box Kristine Bower: RD 2, 210-1. Coplay. OreField; Silk Squad.

Scott Bartholomew said, ,Mondays should not be here at all, and wc should not start the week until Tuesday. On Fridays we should have half a day. Senior l.eanne Hirsch summed it up in a few words. 7 can't remember Mondays because Fridays are so good. Some people prefer Fridays over any other day. Like senior W anda Culkins who said. We should hate Fridays five times a week. A though they might think so, students are not the only ones who hate Mondays and live for Fridays. Teachers are also in this category. After a frustrating week of teaching, two days away from teenagers comes as a great relief. Mr. Claroni admits, It's tough to get back into the swing of things on a Monday even for an organized teacher like myself. ______________________________________ Some students complained about Mondays, because of their schedules. They might have swimming or Geometry First period. Many people say they have to recover from weekends. They are tired and hate to come back on Monday mornings. Senior F.ric Van orman said. ,Mondays I'm tired from the weekends and Fridays feel we shouldn't have school because I’m thinking about the weekend. Mondays and Fridays seem to be the most liked and disliked days, by many students at Parkland High School. They gave various reasons for this.

The student's head nods. The time drags. This is a typical morning at PHS. Mornings are the worst, moans one senior, I'm always so tired in the morning I can never get out of bed. Senior Debbie Cat a has a foolproof way of getting up and staying up, Once I'm awake I can't fall back to sleep. But just to make sure I take a shower. For those of you who hit the snooze alarm and drop off to sleep for those few extra minutes, it's always a shock to wake up and realise you are 20 minutess late. Junior Debbie Yasenchoks adds, Usually if I get up the first time the alarm rings I'll be okay. But if don't, forget it. Although getting out of bed can be quite a difficult task, keeping yourself awake in class is even more of an accomplishment. Students have devised a number of ways to keep their eyes open on those deary mornings in those deary classes. For instance. Senior David Coleman sings to himself. Other suggestions are talking to friends or bothering the people in front of you. Junior Lisa Faenza usually writes notes to pass the time. This seems to be a popular way to get through those long minutes of morning classes. Junior Cheryl Murphy says. It's just so hard to stay awake during second period. I sit right in front of the teacher’s deask. It seems no matter how hard you try to pay attention your mind still wanders. Daydreaming will always be a part of school. And there will always be students whose heads drop on the desk and sleeps through the whole class. Senior Scott Samuelson, for example, almost missed his bus when he fell sound asleep during his seventh period study hall.

W hen preparing to go to college, it was a very good idea for seniors to go to see a high school guidance counselor because they hate a lot of vital information such as college manuals, hot to arrange meetings with college admissions counselors and hot to get isiting pritileges. High school counselors can also recommend colleges and t hat type and hot much schooling is needed in that particular career. Before attending college, soon-to-be graduates should also find out hat type of colleges are best suited for them. High school counselors hate a computer that prints out tthal type of colleges hate your major, where •2+4 the colleges are located, hot much schooling and hat they require y ou to take. It also tells the student hat entry requirements that college has and hat type of scholarships are atailible to them. Visiting the college of your choice is a very good way to get to knot the school. While you are visiting the school you will be able to get to knot the administrators of the college, talk t ith instructors and also get to sit in and listen to actual classes and lectures. Other information that students receited pertained to college fees, tuition and finacial aid. Preparing for college is one of the most important goals for a senior.

Relaxing Kelly Honath Terri Horvath Tammy Hrusecky Eric Huch Senioritis—the dreaded epidemic sweeps through the 1985 graduating class A fter the senior has been a accepted to college the 1 importance of high school seems to vanish. The Symptoms are the same year after year, for each graduating class, ts they look back over their past twelve years of schooling, they wonder if the time was well spent. Looking back, they decided to enjoy their last year; they feel they desene a break. This is the beginning of a common disease known as Senioritis. A disease which eventually overcomes even the most dedicated Senior Class members. The disease is most common during the months of January, February and March, when a great outbreak of Senioritis grasps public and private schools across the nation. Many noted scientists belie e that the disease is transmitted through letters of acceptance receited by the students from colleges of their choice. But this is not the only carrier of the dreaded disease. Many scientists theorize that the plague is carried from the south. The disease is distinguished by se eral easily recognizable symptoms. The first apparent effects are on the seniors grades, which quickly slip due to lack of interest and no test preparation. The senior who is plagued by the disease can be easily picked out. He or she is the student on the bus with no books or the student coming in late or leating early e cry day. The disease disorients the seniors mind, causing he or she to lose sight of what is truly important. They are overwhelmed by such trivial matters as buying an original prom dress, or getting a date with that special someone. Experts belie e that the disease is also signified by the o erzealous need to earn money. The affected Senior finds it necessary to apply for and obtain as many jobs as possible. This constant laboring causes continual weariness and the common complaint 7 am so tired. Most scientists are tired of hearing this. Although you may be blue leaving your friends and facing a new challenge in the years ahead, remember that Senioritis spares no one. not the innocent or the naive.

But for senior Kelly King, collecting pigs is much better. Kelly stated, that she has been collecting pigs for about 4 or 5 years non. When asked why she collected them, her answer was. 7 think they are cute, original and different from everything else.” Her room is filled with all different kinds of pigs like posters, knick nacks, stickers, key chains and stuffed animals. In her collection she likes the little squeaky ones, but her favorite -one is the flying pig that hangs from the ceiling in her room. Kelly also enjoys collecting pigs so much that she even subscribes to a pig magazine. Kelly added “People think it's different and everybody is always buy ing me pigs. 74 , 4 '4 % After this he started to collect pigs. He started out with a pigs but the collection has grown because the students have contributed to the collection. W hat kinds of pigs does he have? He has wooden, glass, and metal pigs. Mr. Frederick says that all of them are his favorites; but one stands out—a handcarved pig hall pass, his first pig. After hearing about a student collecting pigs, you would be surprised to know that there is a teacher that also shares this same interest. In Room 121 is where Mr. Frederick keeps his collection. Mr. Frederick has a logical reason for collecting pigs. He said that a number of years ago a young lady referred to him as a chauvinist pig. Follow u P Eric Lacko: 96 Clauss Kli abclh l.loyd: A2.

V Cramming Ralph Rein hard Suzanne Reinhart Chris Renaud Chip Reninger Studying or cramming, the senior decision. a s soon as you find a scat on the bus. you hurriedly m throw open your notebook and begin to try to learn all the information that you failed to learn last night. You then proceed to homeroom where you continue to rapidly page through that notebook. The bell rings and you walk to your first period class, still paging through the notebook while dodging people in the hall. All during first period you continue to quickly absorb information, totally blocking out the teacher and what is going on in class. Finally the bell rings and you proceed to second period, test time. But you still continue to page through your notebook all the way to the room. This process of quickly skimming your notes just minutes or even seconds before a test is known as cramming, a well-known method of studying used by a large percentage of PHS students. Senior Jill Marshall admitted. My whole senior year was based upon cramming, because after I got accepted to college it didn’t seem to matter any more.” Senior Erin Mclhorn simply commented. ’’Studying is bogus; of course I crammed. Some of the popular places to cram at PHS arc the library before homeroom or the halls before homeroom, in homeroom, in the halls between classes, in the gym and of course on the bus. Senior Stacy Saccani commented. “My favorite place to cram is the upper library. I never studied this year except during study halls the day of the test.” Seniors often find it difficult to go home and sit down and study. Study halls and the quiet found in the upper library arc perfect for last minute studying. Senior Scott Samuelson says. Studying? What's studying? I don’t study here or at home!” Although many student do not find the need for studying, many seniors use extra time during school to further their studies. The study hall time can often become invaluable to any senior who cither forgot to stirdy or decided to wait until the last minute.

W hat is a DMA? Fvery spirted senior V V at Parkland high school knows the answers to these questions. The W eenies support the football and basketball teams with song and spirit. Although many people come to support the games. only a select fev become true Weenies. Any spirited student can become a Weenie. All you really need is a goofy hat. goggles, and an old song to sing when the other team is losing. W eenies are a tight hand of students who stick together even when faced by defeat. The best part about the outstanding spirit of the Senior W eenies is that they support the Trojan teams through every game, winning or losing. W hile the W eenies scream in support of the Trojans, there is one Weenie who appears as the leader. He wears an upside down broom on his head along with a leather skirt, lie carries a painted trash can lid and a sword someone made in a study hall in woods hop. The head W eenie is Mike Dckrell. better 1 known as the Trojan. The Trojan is a prime example of V Senior dedication and spirit, lie must brave the sub-zero weather in nothing hut sandals and a skirt. The Trojan must also attempt to excite and enliven the crowd as they huddle together in search of warmth at the football games. The dedication of the Trojan is so great, he even finds the willpower to ride the hus with the Varsity cheerleaders to the away games. Although the Trojan encourages the teams at the games, he also supports them in the morning with his Dreaded Mascot Announcement (DMAI. Every Senior recognized the powerful voice of their Mascot and the powerful voices of the musical backup, every Friday before a game. The DMAs not only gathered support for the team, hut also provided a good laugh. W hether entertaining or supporting, the Weenies proved to be a major factor in the popularity of games. The spirit of l arkland's Seniors became recognized around the area as some of the best in the league. He can be assured that the tradition of the spirited Weenies will go on.

Jennifer Smith Michael Smith Stephanie Smith Susan Smith Memories overwhelm seniors as they begin plans for the future s the year comes to an end. yA many seniors look ahead to their last days of school with sad feelings. No more high school homecomings, proms or fun nights. These arc the last days to ever experience detention hall, cafeteria study halls or Economics class. Some seniors reflect on their past three years. Senior Keith Hobson said. “It’s depressing to leave because your high school years are the best years of your life, and it has just hit me that it is coming to an end. Shelly Farrell said. I'm sad to leave my friends and my teachers, but it is time for a change. I’m ready to move on.” Senior Tami Ncslcy said. I’ve enjoyed meeting new people, diving for my school and learning about myself.” She continued. It’ll be weird not seeing my friends on a day-to-day basis. Eric VanNorman I cannot wait to get out of school, but after a while I’ll probably start to miss my friends. It is exciting to be graduating and to be entering the real world. but it is equally frightening as it is exciting. Senior Chcric Cincilla said. It s weird, but all of these months I've been saving how I can’t wait to get out: but now that the time has come to leave. I’m gelling apprehensive. This is it. We’re all going our separate ways. High school offered a sense of security. I ife was routine and certain, but now after graduation, nothing is secure and nothing is certain. One senior wasn’t sure what he would be doing in a month. In two months I could be anywhere doing anything I really don’t know. In a way it’s really frightening. I think what I valued most about high school was that I knew where I would be from day to day.” These past three years have been filled with triumphs and struggles, but Shelly shares the opinion of most seniors that It was all worth it. Tami lends advice for future seniors. Take advantage of your remaining days, go for it. gel involved, and you can graduate an achiever.

Parkland Alliance for youth is planned a senior party at the Wcstcnd Racquctball Club to beheld graduation night. June 12. until after breakfast, June 13. The reason for the party as for the enjoyment of the seniors, and for their protection PAY believes that graduation night can be a lime of celebration as well as a time of destruction. Mrs. Calicndo, president of PAY said. “Every 9 minutes a young person is killed, crippled, or disfigured by riding or driving with someone under the influence. Since many graduation parties involve alcohol and then driving. PAY party is a protective measure as well as a parting of old friends. The survey taken at PHS in seeking interest in the party had very good results. Seventy percent of the surveys returned stated that the seniors would come. Sixty-five seniors were involved in the planning. There were many committees needed such as food, decorations, publicity, entertainment and a clean up committee. Support had been substantial and seemed to be increasing as time went by. The party included dancing, swimming, tennis, and racquetball. all night. Also there was handball, doorprizes and movies. There was a large assortment of foods served throughout the night. The cost for this entertainment was a three dollar cover charge. Tickets went on sale the week of May 13. Surprisingly, a large percentage of the Senior Class purchased tickets. It is up to this year's seniors to make or break the first reunion of the class of '85. PAY commented that if the party was a success then the senior party could become a new school tradition. Seniors of the future will benefit from the wise choice of the 1985 seniors' decision to go ahead and make the party a true success. This party may even save lives by having the seniors in one place and not out driving around.

Everyone profits from clubs ommunity service clubs consist of Key Club, Leo Club, and NHS. As the name implies, these clubs perform various services for the community. Key Club, for example, works for the good of the community and its members. Key Club president Anne Emmerth said, “I’ve learned a lot about people through Key Club, and I’m able to get along with people better.” One program of Key Club is writing Santa Letters to elementary school children. “It was best delivering to the kindergarten because they showed the most expression and excitement,” said junior Debbie Wagner. Sophomore Brandie Lloyd said about the Winter Special Olympics, “The participants were better skiers than we were!” Another service organization, Leo Club, raises most of the money for people in need. Practically the only activity solely for Leo members was the ski trip to Little Gap. Leo Club is a student subsidiary of the Lions Club. In Parkland’s case, the father club is the Upper Lehigh Lions. Leo and Lion members support each other with their activities. President Kris Breininger said, “The most rewarding part of being president is making people’s lives more enjoyable through your own capabilities.” NHS serves the community and the school by contributing profits from the volleyball marathon. They adopt a needy child from Save the Children and help the school with the tutoring program. NHS: Front Row; F.ilccn Williams. Kris Scissmayer. Donna Spcdding. Denise Picczynsky. Cindy Ruth.

Responsibility goes long way 1J espectability, organization, and intelligence are all qualities of a leader. Kris Siessmayer, president of Student Council, believes these qualities are essential. “A leader has to be respected to have followers, needs organization to accomplish things, and has enough intelligence to know when to step back and let others take the lead.” Junior class vice president, Nicole Kushner, said organization is the key to leadership. “Since the juniors sponsor the prom, the officers have to be organized or else there might be a very bad prom, or worse, none at all.” Organizations also need leaders to manage the meetings and activities that take place. Good conduct and personality are essential to being a good leader. Amy Ziegler, Student. Council Treasurer, believe officers have a “spotlighted” position. “You are elected by your peers so how you conduct yourself in front of your club members can reflect upon you.” Vo-Tech’s Student Council president, Debbie Moyer, said a good personality is 75 percent of being a leader. “You have to deal with many different people with many different personalities. If you are not open-minded you cannot relate well to your peers.” When leading a group in an activity, the leader’s attitude determines if he or she will have followers. Kris said, “There are many situations that are presented to you as a leader, you have to handle each one efficiently.” Sophomore Class Officers: Front row: David Brooks. Eric Foster. Viki Adams.

Scholastic teams gain esteem Scholastic competition at Parkland: A way of improving one’s mind and gaining self confidence at the same time. To compete in debate, chess or drama compeitions, one must be mentally prepared, as in an athletic event. Senior Marc Levitt, Debate president, stated, “I have teammates ask me questions about my subject on the get there, I’m ready to win.” After a win, most people feel ready to take on any thing. “Satisfaction,” is junior Cheryl Kindt’s comment. “So much of scholastic competition is the research done beforehand; after a win, I feel relieved and happy all the work was not a waste.” “Losing is always a disappointment but is more easily accepted when you know you tried your hardest,” Reed Saunders said. What makes a person want to compete, to feel the highs of victory and the lows of defeat? Junior Andrew Zeitlin answered, “A naturally competitive person, whether in athletics or academics, is drawn to the apprehension one feels victor is, because winning is a great feeling and losing can be overcome.” Competition can help you prepare for the future. It lets one know that life’s bed of roses holds a few thorns. Marc Levitt commented, “Competition teaches you how to win and lose gracefully even if you have not done your best and not all of the elements were fair and based on merit.” Scholastic Scrimmage: Front Row: ndrew Zeitlin.

Some work at the library, student store and the nurse's office, while others involve themselves with the business service club, audio visual services, or act as aquatic aides. Senior Gail Treese, a student store worker, became involved with this by taking business classes. “In my typing class last year, they asked if any one would be interested in working for the student store. Now I work there every day fourth period. Library aides are very helpful. Junior Denise Bollinger does just about everything a librarian does. “I work with all the mail, magazines, newspapers and microfilm. I also put returned books away and help students with finding materials. Being a nurse's aide is very interesting,” replied Junior Kelly Sorrentino. “1 plan on working in something in the medical field, so this gives me ‘behind the scenes’ information. Kelly helps check people in, file papers, types, and keeps things neat and clean for the nurse. Junior Ruth Grim is also a nurse’s aide. “I like being an aide because I'm doing something useful, instead of sitting in study hall.” The Business Service Club serves the whole school. They type correspondence and tests for teachers, programs for plays, and work on word processors. Lori Gallagher, senior, said, “Being a part of the Business Service Club is giving me experience for the future. I am learning to adjust to people telling me what to do.

The first group, Mixed Chorus, consists of Senior, Junior, and Sophomore Chorus. Another group is Women’s Chorus. The last group is PSU, or Parkland Singers Unlimited, a special group of 12 individuals. These separate groups give the select singers a chance to work on more difficult music while working at a faster pace. Junior Jen Bott said, “It’s fun to be in a group where everyone catches on quickly to the music.’’ Competitions and presentations are an important aspect of a chorus member’s life. The Full Chorus presents concerts at Christmas, spring, and at a senior citizens’ dinner in April. All the members of Chorus look forward to these special events. noteworthy job Junior Carol Durner said. I enjoy the people in chorus the most. We don’t always agree, but we usually reach a compromise. Laura Wilcoxen, junior, said, “Our biggest problem is the lack of male voices. Junior Kathy Erhardt enjoys the social aspects and being able to sing freely the most. Jen Bott said, “Everyone cares about each other. This gives the singers a chance to use their talents in a sense of friendship and caring. The Parkland Stage Band has also made a name for the group through competitions. Junior Tom Briggs said, “We beat just about every band except Allen. Compared to other schools, we play pretty challenging music. Senior Chorus: Front Row: Anor.t Cheng. Stacey Pcrricllo.

The flags and rifles move in circles to the music made by the multitude of people encircling them in the center of the football field. Finally, the music stops and the air is filled with clapping. This is the image that the Parkland marching band creates during half-time at football games and at band competitions. Behind the performances they give is hard work and dedication. Three weeks before school starts, from eight in the morning until noon, Monday through Friday, the marching band practices. Every minute of this practice in the hot summer sun is needed so the band will be ready by the first football game. Wendy Kush, rifle captain, said of their practices, “Complete chaos is what it seems to an observer—but everyone knows what they are supposed to do. Somehow', by the performance time, the chaotic atmosphere is gone.” Becoming involved with marching band results from two things: being in band in elementary or junior high school, or knowing others involved. Senior Sue Stacy stated, “During spring of ninth grade, there were practices for silks, I knew a friend already involved, so I became interested. Many gained new friends that otherwise they might never have met. Donna Gilbert, lieutenant cocaptain of silks, said, “Our compatibility is what makes being part of band so much fun. There are never tense bus rides, games, or competitions because of bad feelings between people.” RiBes: Front Row: Wendy Kush Row 2: Tammy Unangst. Tina Hyrowich Row 3: Shcrcc Parenti. Sherry Kuzma.

They perform invaluable services to the school by lending their time to raise spirits of athletes and spectators alike. Majorettes perform their baton routines during halftime at home football and basketball games. Junior Cheryl Kindt said, “I think being a majorette influenced my school spirit this year. Being part of school activities is important.' Mat Maids help the wrestlers during wrestling season in many ways. They are required to attend meets and help set up the gym. Mat Maids sell jewelry and hoagies to raise money. But most of all, they lend moral support to the wrestlers. Cheerleaders also lend moral support to such athletes as basketball players, football players. promotes spirit and wrestlers. They decorated lockers, baked goodies, and painted signs for Friday night games. Junior Nicole Kushner said, “Our attempts to promote spirit make the people more aware of the fact that there are school activities to attend. The Friday morning DMA’s were also an important spirit motivator.” PAC is another club that serves the school. PAC raises money to help sports at PHS by buying new equipment. This year PAC sponsored the Fitness team on their trip to California. Senior President Jamie Wasson said, “I feel that PAC benefits all the athletes at PHS and all sports in general, instead of one particular sport.” Student Trainers also benefit the school with their help in the training room with injured athletes.

The Photography club met once a week with adviser Mr. Bruce Stevenson. They talked about the composition of pictures, parts of the camera, and ways to improve the technique of picture taking. Wendy Frankenfield said, “I became interested in the photography club because I enjoy working with cameras. Tapestry is a literary magazine which contains poetry, short stories, creative writing and literature of any genre. Tapestry met once a week since March. Anyone interested in writing could submit an entry. Every submission was discussed, judged and rewritten to be printed. Mr. Ritter, adviser, said, “I think the content is excellent.

Key Club worked with everyone on the community from kids to senior citizens. Junior Michelle Griffin said, “Participation results not only in helping the community, but also in having fun. It's not a one way street—the community helps us, too. Local businesses buy patron ads in programs and the yearbook, parents chauffeur their kids to and from practices, fans lend their support at games and meets, and neighbors buy enough hoagies to feed an army. Our secret of success is that the community and Parkland complement each other. Brian Everett and the rest of the band work hard to put on an entertaining half time show for the community. They also perform at parades. irmninni tough act to follow Some of the businesses in the Parkland area school district are a tough act to follow. Restaurants take a big part in supporting our yearbook. Perkin's said, “A minor reason for taking out an ad is an advertising factor and a major reason is it helps us print your yearbook.” Widow Brown’s is another supporter of our yearbook. They said, “The reason we put an ad in your yearbook is because our parents and a lot of our students arc good customers. Parkland supports us.” Air products said, “The reason we support Parkland is because we support all our local high schools.” We’d like to thank the businesses in the following pages for supporting our yearbook this year and helping to make our yearbook a tough act to follow.

For example the “atmosphere at Chi Chi’s appeals to sophomore Sandy Potasnak. “I like to eat at Chi Chi’s because cute guys work there,’’ she said. Meantime, students like junior Greg Heffelfinger said, “I like Duke’s Pub because the atmosphere is great, and they have good looking girls.’’ Of course there are people who do go to restaurants for the food. Like Michele Knjoying an excellent meal, consisting of soft tacos and nachos, several students relax at Chi-Chi’s located near the Lehigh Valley Mall. Hodgin, sophomore said “I like Valley Pizza because it’s close to my house and all my friends go there and they have great Italian food.’’ Sophomore Kim Williams said, “I like Perkins because they have great hot chocolate and apple pie.’’ Students at Parkland have different ideas on where they like to eat or take a date depending on how much they have to spend.

The Lehigh Valley Mall is one of the most popular places around where you can find a good selection of stores to buy almost anything you want. Sophomore Keirsten Rodgers said, “John Wanamakcr is my favorite store because I love their Guess selection and their variety of perfumes.” Senior Arlene Donlevy said, “I love the Limited because they have what I like and I ■IHHHIllHTTnrTTTTTTTTmTTT can always find what I want.” However, some students don’t like to shop at the Mall. Sophomore Kim Paganetti said, “I would much rather shop at Hess’s than the Mall because I like Hess’s, normal clothing, not outrageous stuff like Bamberger’s Junior section.” People do go as far as New York or Philadelphia to do their shopping like Senior Tammy Richelderfer said, “Bloomingdale's is my favorite store when my father is footing the bill.” TV ANNA MARIA RESTAURANT 1102 Union Blvd., Allentown, PA Luncheon 11 to 2, Dinner 5 to 10 Friday Saturday 4-11 Cocktail Lounge Restaurant 434-1921 Enjoy ITALIAN AMERICAN Dining Best Wishes Class of ’85 P 11.1-J-l Li ................ 223 Advertisements j 11 y ITT- Sports Cfjalet Ski Sail Center Brand Name Ski Rentals •Two Locations Sailboat Rentals • Instruction • Sails • Parts Sunfish • Hobie Cat • Holders • Sailboards R.D. 8, Box 36A Allentown, Pa.
