A collaboration of team ef- fort culminated in victory at both homecoming games. “Slay the Spartans” and “Bomb the Bombers” were the themes of the football and bas- ketball games respectively. The varsity football team de- feated the North Newton Spar- tans 12-7, and the basketball team defeated Rensselaer 62- 57. The first of the festivities was spirit week. The days varied from the conservative, dress- up and gold ’n cardinal, to the radical, 50’s, punk, and toga. Gina Ramos and Peggy Byar- lay, both in beautiful attire, were Basketball and Football Homecoming Queens. Mike Uhles and GregTenorio earned the honors of being named “Mr. Basketball” and “Mr. Football.” Clockwise from top left: Ms. Basketball, Olga Hernandez, Mr. Basketball,” Mike Uhles, and Homecoming Queen, Gina Ramos, pose for pictures after the game.

The theme for this year ' s prom was “Til the Clock Strikes Twelve.” The setting was Cin- derella Castles of pink and lav- ender. Couples danced to both fast and slow music provided by “Music Machine”. Superin- tendent, Mrs. Chnupa, an- nounced the Grand March. Re- freshments were served rang- ing from finger sandwiches to peanuts. The attire of the stu- dents ranged from top hats and canes for the boys to para- sols and hoop dresses that var- ied from pastels to black and white for the girls. Couple pic- tures were taken by Midstates photography. Mrs. Kroll and Mrs. Robbins, Junior Class sponsors, were responsible for the prom activities. According to many students and faculty this prom turned out to be a beautiful success because of their work. Clockwise from top: Students attending the Prom enjoy each oth- er ' s company.

Both were a big hit with many Junior High students. The King and Queen Dance, held February 14, is where the crowning of the Seventh and Eighth Grade King and Queen takes place. Edward Concepcion and Stacy Handley were crowned Seventh Grade King and Queen and Jeff Holder and Stacey Lem- ley were crowned Eighth Grade King and Queen. Junior High royalty is chosen from a court of four girls and four boys from each class. The Sev- enth Grade court included: Kristin Baker, Anthony Alfano, Melissa Conrad, Edward Concepcion, Ve- ronica Cortez, Sergio Dominquez, Stacy Handley, Frank Sul. The Eighth Grade court included: Yvonne Bonilla, John Daniels, Dina Cortez, Ray Gamble, Jamie Drury, Jeff Holder, Stacey Lem- ley, and Joe Ramirez. There were 155 students who attended the dance. The theme was “Love Is” and the decora- tions were of a 1940’s motif. Along with the King and Queen Dance, the Halloween Dance was another opportunity for students to socialize with their friends and do a little monster mashing. Stu- dents had to be in costume to be admitted to the dance. events Counter clockwise from page 8: Several stu- dents attending the Halloween Dance enjoy the company of chaperone Mr. Rosner.

For double wedding ells are The mock wedding, which is a traditional assignment of the family living classes, had an un- usual twist. Four couples were married instead of two. In the first ceremony, grooms Tim Kemp and John Perez exchanged vows with brides Tammy Johnston and Monica Martinez. In the second ceremony, grooms Jerry Gar- ner and Walter Majka ex- changed vows with brides Grace Garcia and Pixie Nor- man. The ceremonial rites were performed by Wayne Howell and Cindy Craigin.

The mock wedding affords stu- dents an opportunity to reinforce what they ' ve learned in a realistic setting. Top: F. Pacheco, G. Jestes, J. Garner, G. Garcia, W. Majka, P. Norman, R. Doom, and Q.

It is enhanced with the traditions of song and dance. The Wassail, under the direc- tion of Mr. Brown, focuses upon Santa Lucia. St. Lucia, a maiden of the Roman Empire, gave up her dowry to the poor near the day she was supposed to have been wed. Such an ac- tion was unheard of in that day. 12 events Lucia achieved her Saint status when she was burned at the stake and did not die until a sword pierced her heart. Along with other traditions such as the lighting of the Christmas tree and the bring- ing in of the Boar ' s head, was a puppet show written by the 8th grade STP class and performed by the Speech Club under the direction of Miss Kubiak. The newest arrival was the hand- bells, performed by the boys ensemble. They performed the song “Christmas was Born.” Wassailers in their dresses and tunics sang a wide variety of Christmas songs while the guests enjoyed a 4 course meal. The main dish was roast loin of pork. Other dishes in- cluded tossed green salad, baked potatoes, croissants and caviar. Desserts included Swiss Delight cake from St. Louis as well as many other varieties of cakes and candies. Clockwise from top left: Members of the Boys ' Ensemble perform the tradi- tional Italian Banner Waving.

The armored hunters bring a prized catch, the peacock, for the feast. events We are the World Concert and student acts bring out our best Our school has a good reputa- tion for talent. The “Talent-Jazz Review and the “We are the World” concert brought out some of the best. The talent show, held for three consecutive nights, was a definite s uccess. Not only did it provide great entertainment for the audience, but it also gave its participants a chance to show off their talent. At the “We are the World” con- cert each band gave its all. The beginning band played first fol- lowed by the intermediate band. The band members worked hard all year to prepare for this con- cert. The last two bands, concert and “Wind Ensemble,” literally sweated it out” through the year. For them the year started with marching in parades and at football games. Then they began calistenics in preparation for their Florida trip and Disney Worlds Electric Light Parade. In Florida they shared a week of fun in the sun. Their year ended at the We are the World” concert. Page 14 clockwise from left: The student rock group per- forms for the Talent-Jazz Revue.

Raising funds for National Symbol was Societies’ goal The Honor Societies’ mem- bers main concerns this year were not only keeping their grades high to enable them to remain in the Honor Society, but also to raise funds to preserve our dying National Symbol, the Bald Eagle. The Honor Society had bake sales and solicited many donations in an effort to raise the funds. Mrs. Hooks and Mr. Grenert were sponsors. The Academic Decathlon was held on January 11, at Merrill- ville High School. Mrs. Hooks and Mr. Grenert, sponsors, stud- ied with the decathlon members everyday after school for a lengthy period. The Decathlon is open only to juniors and seniors. Nine students are chosen to par- ticipate. Included in these nine are: 2-A students, 2-B students, and 2-C students. 81 clubs 82 Newspaper and yearbook, two classes which require esponsibility we have what it takes Clockwise from top: Annette Nieves and Don Pavy sort the un- derclass pictures for the mug section of the yearbook.

Theory, practice are the focuses P articipation in the begin- ning band is the first step to becoming a successful band member. At the start of the year the students are intro- duced to the various kinds of instruments. Then each stu- dent is given a chance to pick the instrument he or she wants to work with. Before beginning practice on the instrument, the students spend time learning music theory. Upon the com- pletion of the unit, individual in- strument instruction begins. The Beginning Band was not involved in many perfor- mances. They did however, put on one concert. This concert was the highlight of the year for beginning band students and represented a culmination of their work. 93 clubs From jazz to rock R.F.’s bands swing HYTHM The Jazz Band members included, first row: Julio Concepcion, Richard Soria, Kelli Walker, Frank Cole.

Our ri- vals were just one team in a series of opponents who de- feated the mighty Ingots. This was not a case of inex- perience, said Coach Leon- ard, but rather a lack of ef- fort and senior leadership. Some of the guys just did not put forth the effort nec- essary for a winning season. I was not very pleased or satisfied with the effort of the players, he said. Mr. Leonard did admit, however, that we played some tough teams. Three of our oppo- nents in our conference did well in the play-offs. A highlight of the season was holding the jamboree on the Ingot field for the first time in River Forest history. The three schools invited to play were South Central, Whiting, and Lake Station. Each team played against two other teams for one quarter of play. Front row: Head Coach Leonard, T. Quick, D.

The season ended 3-2 for the Freshmen Football team. Even though the team was affected by the small number of guys trying out, said Coach Horban, it was a good group who worked well on the field. They never quit, he said, and many of the players had strong points that contributed well to the team. The Eighth Grade team finished the season 3-3. All the games in which the Ingots were defeated were close. One game was lost in overtime, and the other two were lost by less than a touchdown. The team’s strong point was its running backs, while its weakness was lack of size, Coach Rosner said. The Seventh Grade Football team ended the season with a record of 1-2. This year ' s victory was the first game the seventh grade team has won in a number of years. The team had good rushing, said first year Coach Murray, but they made too many silly errors.

According to Coach Rieck, the squad was divided into two factions. The split in attitudes led to a lack of team unity which took its toll on both the play- ers and coach. This coupled with another year of few re- turning lettermen led to the season ' s demise. Only three team members were return- ing lettermen, Angie Diaz, Kim Wagoner, and Mona Na- jib who came from another school. The remainder of the team was inexperienced. After beginning the season with a convincing victory against North Judson, 15- 10, 15-9, the team dropped nine games before earning their next victory in a three game match against Gary Roosevelt. Other victories included Lew Wallace and Lake Station. The highlights of the sea- son, said Coach Rieck, were the selection of Angie Diaz and Mona Najib to the Northwest Hoosier Confer- ence Volleyball Team and the selection of Martha Najib for Honorable Mention along with beating Hobart in the Washington Township Tour- ney.

According to Coach Hilla, the girls played and developed very well as a team and should have won more matches. However, a lack of experience and a sparse roster hurt the 8th grade team. The 7th grade team ended with a record of 2 wins and 4 losses. The team had its ups and downs, playing well one game and playing poorly the next. A small roster and incon- sistent play were the two things that hurt the team the most.

Boys Varsity brings home the conference banner HAMPIONS With the winning confer- ence banner hanging in the auditorium, the Varsity Boys ' Basketball season ended with a score of 1 1-10. We had a very successful season, said Coach McDan- iel. Of course we could have won a few more games and we lost a few close games that we should have won, but in all Assistant Coach Detterline and I were pleased with the way the team played, the people we beat, and especially winning the conference. The boys played together as a team and their coopera- tion and talent earned us the conference, said the coaches. Size hurt our team more than anything and losing to Hobart in the sectionals was a big disappointment. The Boys ' Varsity Basketball team con- sisted of, front row: Jack Burton, Phillip Schiller, Rich Medellin, Angel Cruz, Spen- cer Newlin.

Ill sports Lack of Varsity and J.V. players hurts squads NCONSISTENT Finishing the year 3-13 the Girls’ Varsity Basketball team had a rather disap- pointing season, said Coach Sawyer. The lack of num- bers hurt the team a great deal this year. Sometimes players from Varsity had to be moved to J.V. so that our squads had enough players to compete, she said. In or- der to have a good, consis- tent, winning team, a squad needs 10 girls who will stick with the sport and work hard; we have never had that. This year’s squad con- tained 5 seniors who had played basketball as juniors. I felt we should have had the best season ever, but it just did not happen that way, Coach Sawyer said, Incon- sistency in shooting also hurt the team. When they were shooting well, said Coach Sawyer, they could keep up with almost any team. They just couldn’t maintain good shooting. Clockwise from page 12: Angie Diaz pumps up a free throw.

Boys’ Basketball team. The season started well, but basically, we fell on our face the rest of the sea- son, said Coach Burleson. Although we lost to some teams that we should have beat, the season ' s biggest disappointment was failing to win the conference game. The highlight of the sea- son was winning the J.V. tournament, Coach Burle- son said. With a number of games lost by one point, the Girls’ J.V. Basketball team ended the season with a 3-12 re- cord. The season could have been better, said Coach Uhles, but considering we only had 7 players, it went okay. A lack of interest hurt the team as well. We need girls who will stay out for the season once they start, she said. The girls who did showed improvement. Above: The J.V.

Good defense doesn’t overcome teams’ lack of experience The season finished 2-6 for the Eighth Grade Girls’ Basketball team. Improving with each game, the girls had a good season, Coach Kirsits said. Some of the games were very close, and the girl’s played very good defensively. However, the girl’s were hurt by a lack of experience. There were too few games, the coach felt, for the long and hard prac- tices the girls had, and many of the players were new and had not played basketball last year. The Seventh Grade Girl’s Basketball team ended the season 3-5. The girls worked hard and came a long way, said Coach Schechner. They played good defense and never gave up, even when they were down; I am not dissatisfied, she said. According to the coach, the practice time was used developing the team’s skills in the basics. 116 sports Clockwise from left: Valerie Dziubla flys down the court past her Eagle opponent.

The boys have a lot of potential and desire to win, and I think that if they continue their discipline, dedication, and the desire to win, people will hear about them, said Coach Spencer, who added , that this year’s boys, in my. opinion, are going to be the. players of the future for Riv- er Forest. I think that they will set a school record if they continue as they are. The Freshmen Boy ' s Bas- ketball team and the Eighth Grade Boy’s Basketball team did not fair as well. The Freshmen ended the season 0-14. The boys could hustle the ball well and continued to improve throughout the season, said Coach Rosner, but our opponents just had .more talent than we had._ _Even though not a game was_ ..won, the boys did not give up. The season being as dis-“ mal as it was, I am extremely proud of those who commit- ted themselves to the end, he said. The Eighth Grade Boy ' s Basketball team won 1 game out of 13. The biggest prob- lem, Coach Leonard said, was their poor attendance at practices. Not only did they miss needed practice, but they also made them- _ selves ineligible to play the _next game. Joe Rodriquez _ earned Most Valuable Play- er, Joe Liberto, Most Im- proved, and Brian Hoobyar, the Mental Attitude Award. f Hustle Does Count Pictured clockwise from left: Stephen Douglas looks toward the coach for advice.

The team made too many mental and physical mistakes. Some of the key players whom I expected a lot out of took longer than antici- pated to reach their potential, he said. One of the bright spots was that the season allowed many of the young sophomores to gain varsity experience. The J.V. Baseball team end- ed the season 2-9. The many errors at the beginning of the season hurt the team, said Coach Murray. Batting was also our downfall, he said. We averaged 7-10 strikeouts per game. Among the talented members of the team were Doug Funes, Jeff Muha, and Ju- lio Concepcion. Julio was a very cooperative, dedicated, and conscientious athlete. As a matter of fact, Coach Murray said, Julio beat out many of the sophomores. Jeff Muha had an excellent fast arm and consis- tency, and Doug Funes was a good player behind the plate.

It was a building season with many young boys, said Coach Mars- zalek. Tim Mills highlighted the team, he said, with many first and second places throughout the season. Jim Gaydos was also a real asset to the Cross Country team, and Saul Vargas and Juan Lopez showed much promise during the season. Ju- nior High Cross Country runner Phil Nafus will be outstanding in High School Cross Country. He was much above average, the coach felt. It takes a special person to be able to run 2 V 2 miles of lonely track with no one there to cheer you on, said Marszalek. The Tennis team’s season ended with a record of 2-11. The team consisted of many young, inexperienced players most of whom needed to prac- tice more during the off sea- son, said Coach Detterline.

Not only the number of quitters but also the lack of experience, hurt the team. The same was true of the ju- nior high wrestling team, led by 128 Sports Coach Hilla. The squad started it’s season with a 28 member roster, but by the end of the first practice only 28 remained and by the time the last prac- tice arrived, the team had dwindled to 4. According to Coach Horban, the most exciting and consis- tant varsity wrestler was Greg Tenorio. Greg had a good atti- tude and helped push the guys in practice all season long. In sectionals Greg placed 2nd and in the regionals Greg lost to an opponent who placed 2nd in State Finals. Along with Greg many of the veterian wrestlers took it upon themselves to push the rookies and less ex- perienced wrestlers to utilize their full potential.

The girls worked hard and looked great both on the field and court. They cheered well this year, she said. Together the Varsity and J.V. squad attended an ASCC camp at St. Joseph’s College. At this camp there was more private instruction than at other camps. Camp also dealt with fund raisers and provided the girls with a cheerleading book that in- cluded the cheers and chants taught there. Both squads did a great job at camp, said Mrs. Whiting. The first night of evaluation the girls received a second place ribbon, and the rest of the nights, a blue first place rib- bon. For final evaluation both the Varsity and J.V. earned a first place ribbon in their divisions. Clockwise from above: The members of the Varsity Cheer- leading squad were, from left to right: Kelly McKinney, Gina Ramos, Deanne Dougherty, Marci Ramirez, Cindy Craigin, Angela Acevez.

During the last week in July the girls attended a DCA camp in Valparaiso. After re- ceiving first place blue rib- bons every night for daily evaluation, the freshmen re- turned home with a first place trophy. The Eighth Grade Cheer- leading squad did really well this year, said Miss Kirsits, sponsor. The girls per- formed nicely at all basket- ball games, she said. During the summer the girls attend- ed an NCA camp. The camp consisted of four days of competition; the girls earned a first for best J.H. group, a spirit stick, 2 1st place ribbons, and 2 2nd place ribbons. The Seventh Grade Cheer- leaders experienced a good year, also. Numerous stu- dents tried out in the fall for the seven member squad.
