Every morning, Gunnar Sjursen walks to the front door of the school which will begin another gruelling eight-hour day. During chorus doss, Nancy Thonn practices reaching those high notes. The Pledge of Allegiance starts off this assembly, and senators John Shallman and Terry Tingle lead the crowd. Student Life We re number one yells this proud Rocky crowd of the Homecoming footboll gome. While wotching the opponent ottempt to score, Jill Dickerson concentrates on willing her teom to victory. 4 Student Life More Class Added To Rocky For the first time in years, Rock Island high school welcomed two freshmen classes to the main campus. The expansion caused everyone to adjust to crowded halls, classrooms, and lunches, but being the classy school Rocky is, students ac¬ complished it. This prompted the 1961-1982 yearbook theme, A little more class.” Having four classes packed into the school caused its problems, but there are also advantages. The school spirit soated to a high peak. Students showed any competi¬ tion that Rocky is proud. Rock Island high school is classy. From the seniors right on down to the freshmen there is pride. Rocky gives off positive vibrations in all aspects whether large or small. It has an almost endless variety of curriculum. In the sports area the addition of freshmen teams made for future prospective varsity champions. Clubs and organizations became enlarged and prosperous. New members highlight¬ ed progress of activities and functions of each club. Pep assemblies were definite successes. Spirit is a large part of Rocky, and the extra voices helped to boost ev¬ eryone ' s spirit even higher. As the cheer- leaders led the school song, the feeling of togetherness overwhelmed the school. The cheers and yells for Rocky echoed on throughout the day. Students proudly car¬ ried the crimson and the gold in high es¬ teem. They were able to overcome sar¬ dine-packed stair cases, and locker rooms. All problems whether minor or major the students approached, and tackled. The “class in the school never disappeared for a minute, as Rocky only became classier. Communications and respect between stu¬ dents and administration had its rough spots, but there were always compro¬ mises. High fashion standards also elabo¬ rated on the theme for 1981-1982. More and more people attended school dressed like fashion models. This feature reflected Rocky in a fashionable way. All who take part in any function at Rocky thrive for success. The combining of the freshmen with the other three classes proved in itself to be successful. The addition broadened the search for accomplishment, and the accomplishment was keeping Rock Island high school proud. Seniors, juniors, sopho¬ mores, and this year even the freshmen, all united to display Rocky pride and spirit. That is why it is only fair to say, Rock Island high school has a little more class. A surprised Paula Caras enhances Rocky ' s appearance by dancing with doss. Rocky ' s Drum Major. Chris Lear, puts forth a great effort to lead on the marching band. Student Life Since fruit juices replaced carbonated beverages this year. Sue Atkinson decided to try out some apple juice. Students Face Entanglements b Student Life Juniors always find something to be amused by, and this seems to be the case for Nancy Thonn, Kelley Wendland. Kathy Dawson, and Sue LeBow, as they watch the maiden races. Our very own Mr. Rock , Tab Smith, applauds a good ploy by the Rocky football players. Stretching his mind ond his reach, Doug Fitzsimmons practices his trombone. Students ore not the only ones to participate in dances; Coach Duncan Reid shows his stylish dancing steps too. Instead of reading her government assignment, Gail Simpson takes a break to chew a piece of gum. Student Life 7 Camelot Lights Homecoming Rocky experienced o trip bock to me¬ dieval times during 1981 homecoming week, A Knight In Camelot. The week of events included the ever popu¬ lar gelatin eating contest, maiden races, a banana pass, pyramid building, and a Sir Lancelot contest. The assembly not only disclosed the 1981 homecoming court, but it also honored the KSTT foot¬ ball player of the week, Michael Coun¬ try Johnson. The annual powder puff football game took place after school in the stadium. With a little help from the referees, the seniors upheld the tradi¬ tion of winning. For the first time Rocky had a night pep assembly too. The next morning, clowns, royalty, bands, and floats drew a crowd as they paraded through downtown to commence homecoming day. The game against the Quincy Blue Devils followed with a victory for the Rocks. A few hours later the dance began, ending all anticipa¬ tion. Even the freshmen participated in the dance - a new first for Rocky. The 19S1 Homecoming Court includes (seated) Duffy Heth, Kelly Fockel. Lisa Strieter, and Stephanie Hallberg. (Standing) Michael Johnson, Tab Smith, Prince Matt Lofgren, King Kris Dasso, Queen Jackie Anderson, Princess Angie Dasso, Rickey Keys, and Steve Murphy. While enjoying a dance togerher. Matt Lofgren and Lisa Strieter share a few laughs. 6 Student Life Cheerleader Pam Sedgwick holds the banner, while Glen Elston breaks through to commence the homecoming game. The senior doss won first place for their homecoming float Burn the Devils.” In spite of cold weather, King and Queen, Kris Dasso and Jackie Anderson enjoy a ride in the parade. Using all his strength, George Dixon races to carry a moiden across the finish line. Student Life Teresa Schmidt fights off sleep while reading in the library. Elaine Moller sleeps quietly during a lecture. Mondays: Crabgrass In The Lawn Of Life Are Mondays really necessary? At Rocky, the answer is NO! After spend¬ ing a wonderful weekend without wor¬ rying about algebra two assignments, chemistry tests or English papers, Mon¬ day was a cruel slap in the face. Stu¬ dents tended to forget about the home¬ work that was due early Monday morn¬ ing, after all how good could it be when it was done in five minutes at ten-thirty on Sunday night? Most students spent the day in a state of semi-existence: daydreaming, sleeping or just goofing around. More students sat out of gym class on Monday, claiming that ordinary people just aren ' t ready to square dance, swim or play speedball on a Monday morning. Yet, once a month there was relief from the Monday blahs: early dismissal! Due to teacher ' s meetings and depart¬ mental get togethers, the students were released forty minutes earlier than usual. While the students appreci¬ ated this, the Monday yucks were still apparent on the other three Mondays of the month. Students of the Rock stum¬ bled into class at one minute before eight, yawning and wiping sleep out of their eyes. They wished that they had been one of the lucky few who had late arrival and wouldn ' t have to crawl in until one minute before nine. They did however, pity the poor souls who had to face Chemistry or gym or one of the other early bird classes held at sev- en a.m. every school morning. It was just to horribly disgusting and treacher¬ ous to think about. One good thing came from Mondays, however, everyone had an excuse for not working up to their level. Give me a break, it’s Monday was a commonly heard phrase as was, I just didn ' t have time to do it, I was so busy this week¬ end. While these excuses rarely got anywhere, especially in the atten¬ dance office, they seemed perfectly logical and reasonable to the students at Rocky. Monday must have some good to if, even though when the alarm goes off at six-thirty, beginning what will progress into nineteen thousand, five hundred minutes of school until an¬ other weekend rolls around, it ' s obvious why many students were tempted to roll over and hit the snooze alarm, push¬ ing the thought of school out of their minds for just a few minutes more. An old saying goes, Never buy a car that is made on a Friday or Monday. That adage could be reworked slightly to fit Rocky: Never collect homework that is due on a Friday or Monday. 10 Student Life Helen Dorneft reads something more interesting than her textbook. Tony Vogel pesters Dave Timmer as he attempts to finish his homework. Sue Anne Denney takes a break during class to relax. Student Life 11 Michoel Kelly ond Sho McCullough pose In the Participating In the latest game craze. Shawn Mlekush and Steve Doehm race to see who can solve classic style. Rubik ' s cube first. Student Life Rocky meets Rocky”. Students ottend the Rocky Horror Picture Show, o cult film thot ploys every Fridoy ond Saturday night ot Duck Creek Cinemas in Dettendorf. Mike Pearson, Tammy Sanders, Marcus Keller, Mike DeVriese, Stacy Millen and Terry Tingle dance to the Time Warp. The corn row, or Do Derek style remained a popular fad for the guys and girls at Rocky. Ploying Poc-man is Tom Rich. Fads, Fashions Laden with their toilet paper, rice, squirt guns and balloons, they paraded in. Find¬ ing a seat where it was possible to partici¬ pate as well as to be participated on, they started screaming. Ups, we want lips! As midnight struck, a giant pair of bright red lips spread over the screen: The Rocky Hor¬ ror Picrure Show has begun. Rocky Horror, a cult classic, was only one of the many fads experienced by Rocky students. The preppy look was back; with an animal flair: polo pony shirts, deer sweaters, alligator slacks and duck shoes. Rubik ' s cube astounded many as the cube craze spread throughout Rocky. Stu¬ dents everywhere were seen carrying a multi-colored block, unable to solve or to put down the mind-boggler. Space games like space invaders pro¬ vided many with hours of delight. Pac-man — a favorite of conversations - was a great way to spend an otherwise dull evening. Student Life 10 Night Life Whitey ' s Ice Cream Parlor Is a popular place ro relax or ro rake a dare after the game. Although it is located in Moline on twenty-third avenue, it is still a favorite of Rocky students. He spends forty-five minutes in the shower testing out every kind of deodor¬ ant soop, just to make sure. She eats a huge dinner so she won t have to eot in front of him, then worries that she looks fat. He nicks himself shaving and fears that he ' ll either hove to wear toilet paper on his face all evening or bleed to death. She pokes her eye with the mascara wand. By seven-thirty, they ' re both ready to forget the whole idea. What if he hates me?” She wonders. What if my Aquafresh fails?” He thinks. Promptly at eight p.m. the doorbell rings She freezes, unable to decide if she should make a stunning, late entrance or save him from having to talk to her mom. They escape before her parents pull out the baby pictures, and, suddenly, they ' re alone on a date and nothing else could go wrong, right? Wrong!” say the students of Rocky. I was allergic to the wrist corsage he bought me for swirl, not only did I sneeze all night, but my arm broke out in a rash.” The police picked us up for parking after Homecoming and called my mom, who said, Leave the kids alone, it ' s homecoming.” We were leaving for Prom when I heard the neighbor shout, Hey mom, come watch, she ' s leaving. We stopped at McDonald ' s and I spilled a half pint of orange juice on my painters pants. I spent the next twenty minutes in the men ' s room standing in front of the hand dryer. I was running to catch up with my boy ¬ friend. fell and broke my leg.” Every time we were alone, my best friend would call and interrupt. Denise Robinson, Derrick Pulliam, Dione Holland and Craig Patrick relax between dances at Home, coming. 14 Student Life Homecoming for many was a chance to ask out that special person, or to get up the nerve to ask out that someone you ' d had your eye on. A popular hangout of underclassmen and upper¬ classmen alike was Happy Joe ' s, where birthdays are fun. The most attended Happy Joe ' s is in Milan, but a few without transportation preferred the newest Hap¬ py Joe ' s on thirtieth street in Rock Island. Freshmen and sophomores usually participate in more group related activities than do upperclass¬ men. ' Here, Leslie Gordon leads a chain dance. Student Life 15 Duffy Heth buys apple juice, a new convience at Rocky. Kirksey Victors has trouble with Rocky ' s chicken. Crutches can be a hindrance at lunch, as John Hass proves. In line also are: John Miller, Joel Keim, Hass, Jamie Allison. Steve Smith, Chang Jung, ond Chris Huntley. Aaron Dajour shows the result of lunch in the cafeteria. 16 Student Life Rich Elliot sells Don Drosmer o condy bor at lunch. More Gruel Anyone? two hour parking limit on the side streets made parking anywhere but the lots near- ly impossible. This led to over-crowded ta¬ bles. long lines and general confusion in the cafeteria. Yet, not all was bad; on nice days students could be seen playing with a frisbee, lying in the sun, gossiping with friends or just enjoying the fresh air. Even though the freedom of lunch was some¬ what restricted, students still found ways to break the monotony of the day by enjoy¬ ing lunch. Student Life 17 Learning the basics of American culture in a relaxed atmosphere, are Siyan Pen and Seima Prum. New Country, New Problems An American soldier would knock on the door and tell how many men they needed to become soldiers. Fighting and killing were a part of life. Having endured years of struggling survival, many Laotion fam¬ ilies decided to escape the horror of their war torn country. The Laotion families fled, carrying with them all their belongings. If seen, they never knew if they would be allowed to continue, or shot, but, it they succeeded, freedom and the easy life would be theirs . .. or so they thought. The adjustment requited to become Americanized was difficult. Before reach¬ ing the U.S. the refugees first found an American sponsor, this was done from the country of Thieland, where the refugees lived in camps,- it was better than Laos, they thought, but not like the U.S. Those who arrived in America usually spoke little or no English; as a result, employment problems ensued, and many Laotions were forced to live in low-income housing complexes or poverty level housing. Education presented another problem. Few schools were equipped with the means to teach or communicate with the Laotions. Many, though they displayed above average intelligence, were stuck in slow learning classes, thus slowing the Americanization and nationalization pro¬ cess. The Another Pair Of Hands program originated to help the Laotions on a grade school level, and Rocky now has a pro¬ gram solely for Laotions. In their classroom, they learn the Ameri¬ can number and alphabet systems; also, they learn that they can hold jobs outside their family unit. The majority of Laotions students wish for more friends. Slowly, the Laotions and Americans ore adjusting to the cultural dif¬ ferences and are bridging the gap be¬ tween the two countries. t8 Student Life Ill Thongkhau Yuenyoung poses for the camera.

It is also chain locked during the day. Life is often hectic for the Principal. Since it is impossible to be everywhere at one time, Mr. Murphy does much of his work by phone. 20 Student Life Adjustment-Keynote For Rocks It wasn ' t easy; over half the students who entered Rocky the first day were to¬ tally unfamiliar with the building. During the opening day assembly Senate Presi¬ dent John Shallman proclaimed to the up¬ perclassmen, ”1 stepped on a few fresh¬ men on the way over, The juniors and seniors related to this. With only five min¬ utes between classes and with throngs of underclassmen wandering, hopelessly lost, even those who knew the set-up at Rocky found it difficult to get to class on time. Construction continued far into the first quarter: 227S and the Library shared a new fire escape; double classrooms turned into two single classrooms: Mr. Casey taught in what was once a teachers ' lounge (forcing many teachers to keep their lunches outside on a windowsill) and the student lounge became a deans’ at¬ tendance complex. Two hour parking became a reality shortly after school started. The signs that read, Two hour parking. School days only, eight a.m. to three p.m. popped up on the side streets surrounding Rocky. Stu¬ dents forced themselves to wake and leave for school earlier in order to get the precious few parking spaces on 23rd Ave. Two lots existed for student parking: many disgruntled students, however, refused to park in the lots for access to their cars was prohibited during school hours. Protests en¬ sued; a group of students went straight to Superintendent James Hopson with the problem. The administration stood their ground, locked lots remained, and Rocky students accepted the situation. The lunch schedule changed from four overlapping to three nonoverlapping per¬ iods, and the bullhorn was silenced for good. The Warchrower also changed. When the new adviser, Mrs. Simanek rook over the helm after Mrs. Conrad ' s twelve year reign, the staff decided that a totally new look should follow. They felt that it was unfair to reproduce Mrs. Conrad ' s book, so, a completely different format was used. By the time the school year ended, ever- ything clicked. The halls seemed less hec¬ tic: the lunchroom appeared less crowded; the students look less hassled. Rocky had adjusted: it became a four year public high sch ool, the only one in the Illinois Quad Cities, with an enrollment hovering near 2400. Mrs. Conrod, former advisor of the Watchtower, poses with ten of her twelve Rocky yearbooks. Finding parking on 23rd Ave is often difficult. Students who wont o good parking place usually arrive at school early.

Although most of the snow was unpackable, they took advantage of the wet, heavy snow. Drr! Mikkos did it! Faithful General Hos¬ pital Fans firmly believed that the evil Mikkos Cassadine. who single-handedly froze Port Charles with diamond crystals, also sent Rock Island thermometers plum¬ meting. More scientific crews, however, announced the coming of on ice age, and that the weather was due to the align¬ ment of the planets in space. (They are nearly in a straight line, causing the gravitational forces to change.) Regardless of the causes. Rock Island faced its coldest winter of the centruy. Records doting back to the late 1800 ' s fell. The thermostat dipped down to a biting 25 below zero, and if that wasn ' t bad enough, the wind chill sent the tem- pature plunging to nearly 100 below. School was cancelled the 11th of Janu¬ ary, due to the dismal weather. To many students dismay, however, finals went on, as scheduled, the following two days. Also to the regret of many, the weath¬ er seemed to warm up for the week, while they sat in class, and grow colder every weekend, resulting in a disease known as Cabin Fever. New Year ' s Eve was spoiled for many because of the blizzard-like conditions: Blowing snow, low visibility, and slippery roads. As January progressed, blizzard condi¬ tions reigned. Plagued by the icy roads and slick sidewalks, attendance was low throughout the month. The cold weather did have one good point: when it got up to ten degrees, students were estatic because of the heat wave. Srudent Life 23 Pointing to the diogtom of the stadium, Tab Smith shows how feasible outdoor graduation could be. Senate President, John Shallman, speaks to the board concerning graduation. 24 Student Life Graduation Decision Creates Conflict Say one word ond most seniors will an¬ swer with eagerness, anticipation and panic. For many, a high school graduation will be the only graduation, due to high tuitions and less scholarships. So, after twelve years of schooling, seniors felt that they had the right to graduate where they want to: outside, in what is considered to be one of the finest bowl stadiums in the country. Usually, graduation is scheduled to be outside in the stadium, with an alter¬ nate, set up in the field house, in case of rain. Last year, however, the administra¬ tion decided that all future graduations would be held inside. The seniors protest¬ ed, for they had not been consulted in the matter. Superintendent James Hopson overruled the administrative decision, and plans for outside graduation were drawn up. It was decided, however, that the res ¬ lut of graduation 1981 would decide the fate of all graduations to follow. Less than perfect planning resulted in a graduation plagued by the early sunset, and overall poor visibility. The announcement hit the Argus by late July,- all future graduations would be held in the fieldhouse. The 1982 graduates, facing their final year at a drastically different Rocky, felt that indoor graduation was just too much to take. As a result, they banded together to think of an outdoor graduation plan that would be feasible for everyone involved. Led by three student school board mem¬ bers, Nancy Nielsen, Tab Smith and Matt Lofgren, and Senate President John Shall- man, the students formulated a plan based on the students ' ideas of a perfect gradu¬ ation, and designed to improve on last year’s problem points. What resulted was a well thought out plan that covered every aspect of gradu¬ ation. The plan called for the seniors to sit on folding chairs on the grass in the center of the stadium: thus highlighting the gradu¬ ates by putting them in the center of at¬ tention. The audience, each of whom would need a ticket to attend, would sit in the west bleachers, with the setting sun at their backs. Each would march through the grass in order to save wear and tear on the all-weather track. This would also create a long enough walk for the graduate to be seen by his family and friends, something that didn ' t happen last year. The student representatives called on the juniors and seniors to support the plan and to show it by attending the school Money Neiisen. a student school board representative, reads her prepared statement on graduation to the board- board meeting on February ninth. The meeting was well attended. Matt Lofgren summed up the students ' feelings in one sentence, I have a picture of my gradu¬ ation and that picture doesn’t include bas¬ ketball hoops. The plan, presented to open-minded and attentive school board members, created little result. A meeting was held with the administration board representatives and student board repre¬ sentatives but the verdict announced on February twenty-third was undecided. The administration stated that they were under too much pressure to make such a hasty decision; so, they announced that a formal decision would be made the week before graduation. Student Life 25 The Prince and Princess of Woles kiss on the balcony of Buckingham Palace following their wedding. President Anwar Sadat of Egypt who brought Arabs and Israelis closer to peace than ever before died in a hail of gunfire on October sixth. Leaders Die - Di Weds On October sixth, Americans listened to the conflicting news reports that flooded the airwaves and remembered the not so distant past: the assasination attempt on President Reagan. Unfortunately, the bad news was truth: Anwar Sadat was dead, the victim of an assassin ' s bullet. A gang of Muslim fanatics erupted from a Ciaro parade and murdered Egypt ' s president, who received the Nobel Peace Prize after the Camp David peace treaty was signed. No more war, he said in Jerusalem in November 1977, Ring the Dells for your sons. Tell them that those wars were the last wars and the end of sorrows But all news was not bad in 1981-1982. In search of happier, less troubled times, everyone turned to the fairy-book wed¬ ding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana as a royal blessing. Many Americans, so not to miss the celebration, set alarm clocks for four a.m. so not to miss any coverage, when it began via satellite. Quad Citians got in the swing of things with full dress parties and an aura of peace and hope prevailed throughout the world. In sports, the asterick season in baseball finally ended. Marred by a seven week strike that cost pro baseball fifty-nine days and seven hundred and fourteen games, many baseball fans turned to farm and community teams to fulfill the baseball fix. Even after the strike ended, some didn ' t return to watching pro ball, for they had found local ball to be more like True baseball. The Dodgers finally learned how to win the big one. With an infield that was too old, and a pitching staff that was too young, the Dodgers put it all together to beat the quarrelsome damn Yankees in six games. After losing the first two the Dodgers proved they had mi les and miles and miles of heart, sweeping the next four games and the championship from the Yankees. The Cincinatti Dengals faced the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl. Local t.v. sets tuned in and Quad Citians rooted for local favorite and Augustana College gra¬ duate, Kenny Anderson. The Bengals put their act together a little too late, though, and were defeated by the 49ers. 26 Student Life 1 il i World Wide Photos Ken Anderson.

Whether playing, watching, or cheering, sports brought the school together to fight for a common cause. With A Little More Class,” the 1961-82 year In sports was broadened, and many more athletes took part than ever before. Success came on the field, court, mot, track, and in the water. Sports at Rock Island high school was not only winning or losing, it was giving one ' s all, fighting to the end, and never quitting. Rock Island athletes carried on a rich tradition of pride. An athlete at Rocky was a special person in all aspects. He had the will to work and improve. These athletes not only developed their bodies, but their minds os well. Players acquired abilities related to etiquette, and courtesy, as well as athletic abilities. They learned to control their emotions and put grudges behind them so they could function at their best. No matter what the consequence was, athletes were never thought of as let downs. They were respected for their hard efforts and acknowledged as a winning team even If the event was lost. Team sports at Rocky also developed the ability to work with a group. An athlete learned to depend on others, while, at the same time, othets depended on him. He worked together with his fellow teammates, yet also worked with and respected the wishes of his coach. Individual sports encouraged personal confidence. The athlete cultivated character, and acquired the talent to rely on himself only. The addition of the Freshmen class brought more team points to sports with individual scoring, such as gymnastics, wrestling, and swimming. It also increased the number of prominent Letter achievers. Sports were important not to the athletes and the school only, but to the community as well. At the end of the athletic season, each individual sports participant hod the right to be proud of his accomplishments. He represented Rocky on his own and with his team. Each athletic team gave Rock Island high school a better image, and made the city proud to support them. Diver Steve Smith gets in position to take o plunge into the water.

Rocks Put Forth Every Effort — Coach DeSutrer The 1981 edition of Rock Island football found a group of men who established the example of what it meant to be a Rock, so stated first year varsity football coach Wayne DeSutter. Their hard work and sacrifice will be carried into the future by the underclass¬ man that will follow them. The final record of 3-6 did not reflect the effort and determination that was present during the season. Five of their losses came by less than a touchdown. They were o group of young men who never quit on themselves or on their team. Coach DeSutrer lead the Rocks to a sparkling win in the season opener only to lose the second game of the season to a tough Marshalltown team. The Rocks then traveled to Moline to beat the Maroons in closing minutes of play, on a Steve Murphy to Country Johnson touchdown strike, in a game that mode peo¬ ple wonder if the teams were playing on a football field or the Okefenokee swamp. Rock Island returned home to excite the ho¬ metown crowd in a homecoming victory to Quincy. Standouts on this year ' s gridiron team were Steve Murphy, Mike Country Johnson, Ricky Dee- chum, and Ben Newcomb on the offensive and Bob Piehl, Jeff DeYoung, Tim Miers, and Ken Grawe sparked the Rocks de¬ fense. Also contributing to a fine team were Marcus Ballard, Glenn Elston, and sophomore John Hass. Football . Individual Effort, Team Work Carries Gold To 6-1 Season Much improvement was the common term used by oil three coaches of the Rock Is¬ land Red, Gold, and Sopho¬ more football teams. The Rocky Red team, coached by Ed Lillis, and assist¬ ed by Roydell Williams, ended their season 1-6. In spite of their record,” Coach Lillis com¬ mented, the one win they did receive was a sign of how good the team could do. He had high hopes for the future sophomore team. The Rocky Gold team coached by Kevin Minch, and assisted by Jim Lighthizer end¬ ed theit season just the oppo¬ site of the Red team, as they posted a 6-1 record. They tied for conference against John Deere. Coach Minch was very proud to be their coach. He commented, They were a very coachable team. They tried to do everything I asked - Cooch Minch of them. Their strong point was their quickness and agressive- ness.” He went on to say that the team working together contributed to their winning season. Coach John Each, who was helped by Rick Miers, Doug Hallberg. and Norm Albritton, coached the Rocky sophomore team. Their season record was 4-5, with the majority of wins coming during the second half of the season. The team started off inexperienced with four¬ teen players out for football their first time. The team ended up with 42 players on the ros¬ ter. 30 who started at some¬ time during the season. The team progressed greatly as the season went on. Coach Each commented that the coaching staff did a great job meeting his goals for preparing the sopho¬ more team for the varisty level of competition.

The Rocks missed by one point of tying Moline for the district title. They also placed second at the Big Six Conference Meet. Senior Tim Carlson led the Varsity to the State Finals when he qualified with a 8th place finish at the sectional meet. Ju¬ niors Tony VanDerWalle and Kevin Soeken also played ma¬ jor roles in a successful season. The 1981 Girl ' s Cross Country team was faced with an ex¬ tremely tough schedule. They had some very fine individual and team performances during the 1981 season. The top five for the year consisted of one freshman-Kelly Yeocum- two sophomores-Dawn Bosworth, and Joel Axup-one junior-Mor- ion McCart-one senior-Sharon Gottwalt, some highlights of the season included dual meet wins over Geneseo, Allemon and Moline, a very fine sev. enfh place finish at the sixteen team Dixon Invitational, third in the Big Six Conference meet, and qualifying for the sectional meet in Freeport. All the girls worked hard even though it was a young squad. It wos o good season.

Sophomore Missy McKee was the high scorer for the year and qualified again for the state finals in the backstroke. The Boy’s Swimming Team -Team Member was also aided by seniors.

Coach Sammon recalled the plans he had mode for this years team. He saw depth and experience and looked for¬ ward to a good season. He saw great opportunities for Kelly Fackel. his number one player for the past three years. After the team captured the Western Big 6 title, Kelly went on to a second place finish in District and closed the year in the top 32 at State. Kelly was joined in a team effort by Lisa Strieter, Jenny Schiller, Sarah Sohl, and Shelly Newland, who filled in the second through sixth spots. All in all the team put forth a winning effort. The returning letterman for the Rock Island Boys Tennis Team expected a winning sea¬ son. Scott Gerstein, Steve Moran, Steve Katz, Marcos Her¬ rera, and Jim McNamara put forth a strong effort in the bat¬ tles against their opponents.

Varsity Dosketboll Rocky Fans Waif Sixteen Years; None Of Them Disappointed 1982 - sixteen years since Rocky had seen a sweet six¬ teen berth. 1982 - four years since the Rock Island fans saw their team perform in a section¬ al game. 1982 - the year Rocky spectators cheer their team to a regional championship, a sec¬ tional championship, a super- sectional appearance and a heart-breaking defeat. The Rocks began their sec¬ ond season on March 2nd. fac¬ ing a familiar and crosstown ri¬ val. the Alleman Pioneers. The Rocks easily outhandled the Pioneers, 80-60, as they pre¬ pared for a battle with Moline. The clash occured before a packed house, as the Rocks let loose a yeor ' s emotions and let the Maroons know why they were seeded number one. The lead see-sawed before the Rocks went ahead 34-30 at the half. The Rocks held on to the lead at the beginning of the third quarter before falling be¬ hind 41-40, then 43-42. That, however, was the last time the Rocks had to play catch-up. They coasted on to win the game, 68-62, and the regional crown. This win not only showed the quickness of the team, but the depth as well, as the reserved came off the bench to score 30 of the 68 points. The speed of the Rocks proved to be too much as Ster¬ ling was outmanned, outre- bounded and outscored 65-63 in the first game of the section¬ al. It was Pat Appleman ' s last minute steal that sealed the win. The next Friday night, caused even the Rocky faithful to skip a heartbeat. Dropping behind 14-7 in the first period, the Rocks scored 10 to Ro¬ chelle ' s 1 in the remainder of the first period to take an early 17-15 lead. Falling to a 34-31 deficit at halftime, the ninth ranked Rocks were not going to lose, and came thundering out in the third quarter. Ours- coring the Hubs in the third peri¬ od. the Rocks took a 53-50 lead. This three-point lead was extended to seven before be¬ ing cut to a one point lead. Not giving in, the Rocks fed the ball inside to Appleman, who put the Rocks ahead to stay. Ro¬ chelle scored their last bucket and imediately called time-out. Two clocks showed no time left, but the official timeclock showed :0l. With the refs al¬ ready in their locker room and the net on the Rocks end cut down, Mike Reid was to seal the victory with a freethrow on o technical foul against Ro¬ chelle for calling a sixth rime out. After four days and ninety miles, the Rocks met their Wa¬ terloo, the Rams of Peotio Man¬ ual. Breaking out to a one point lead, after 8 minutes of play, the Rocks froze. Going from a 17-14 lead to a 23-17 deficit and failing to score in four minute period, the Rocks never again saw the lead in their hands. Although they outscored the Rams, they could on hang on until the end, losing 71-66 and putting an end to one of the best, if not the best season in the history of Rock Island High School basketball. Breaking records seemed to be a habit for the Rocks. With an average of 75.4 points per game and scoring: 40 points in a quarter, 51 field goals in a gome, and 2,261 points on the season, the Rocks could not leave the record books un¬ touched. One statistic that re¬ mains in the books is the twen¬ ty years that Champaign avoids the reach of the Rocks - but as a famous person some¬ where put it, Wait till next year!

A regular season record of 22-3 reflected the Rocks outstanding year. This has been a very rewarding season for the play, ers and our fans, stated Coach Reid. The Rocks opened their sea¬ son by sweeping all three games of their own tourna¬ ment only to lose the trophy to Alleman on freethrow percent¬ age. Reid ' s crew maintained their win streak by frouncing Moline on their home court. This win streak came to an end against an excellent Quincy team. Rocky fought hard, los¬ ing by only eight points. After two more wins. Rocky fans were caught in disbelief as their team lost to Cahokia in overtime. They went on to win the consolation bracket at the Pekin Tournament. The Rocks proceeded with a four game win streak before losing their last game of the regular season to Quincy. The last eleven games presented only two close calls, a close game at U.T.H.S. the weekend after they cracked the ratings and a come from behind victory over Moline in a wild Rock Island Fieldhouse. The 1981-82 season was a re¬ cord breaking season for Co- captian Mike Reid and his teammates. The 6 ' 2 senior broke a ten year record for points per game. The previous record was set in 1971 by Bruce Hamming when he scored 42 points against Davenport West. Mike ' s name took that spot in the record books as he broke the record by scoring 43 points against Bloomington Central Catholic. Mike also broke his own record of assists in a sea¬ son. The Rocks as a team also broke two records, 121 points against Rock Falls erasing a 16 year old record and the offen¬ sive average on the season has new numbers in the book. Leading the Rocks on the couit were Co-captains Ricky Keys and Mike Reid, Pat Apple- man, Tony Johnson, Pot Met¬ calf, and Craig Sharp. Coming off the bench to make big con¬ tributions were Derrick Pulliam, Brian Rice, Tom Eagle, and Ron Hotchkiss.

Coach Foleys sophomore team captuted the Western Dig 6 title after they ended up 10-0 for the conference. The soph ' s carried their winning streak to 33 straight. Three players start¬ ed for the Rocks throughout all 23 games this season. These team members were Eric Lund- gren, forward; Jon Rummels, guard; and John Hass, center. Eric Lungren earned a place on the Varsity squad, where he averaged about 2.5 points a game. Backing up these three regulars were Marlon Lewis, Jim Moore, Jeff Tyler, and Evan Carlson, who all earned start¬ ing positions in one or more games. The team took 1st. place at the East Moline Sopho¬ more tournament over the Christmas break. Although the team had fallen behind during some competition, the sopho¬ mores managed to keep their record clean. Red and Gold freshman teams displayed talent throughout the year as both teams turned out winning re¬ cords. The Red team, coached by Mr. Schulte, went unbeaten for the season, and went to the championship game of the freshman tournament played in Rocky fieldhouse. The Red came out victorious in the Red- Gold game in tough battle against players from the same school. The gold team, coached by Mr. Drown, turned in a fine record this season, although the team faced a loss against the Red, and a loss in the first game of the freshman tournament, the team racked up several vic¬ tories for the season. The teams faced conference competition, tournaments, and non conference games and of¬ ten more than one game a week. The soph ' s and fresh¬ man, however, fought toward winning seasons, thus, proving their skill, talents, and ability. In practice. David Carr mokes a perfect lay-up shot.

Girl ' s Dasketball Inexperience Plagues Rocky Spring Sports” Vorsity baseball coach Jack Carroll looked for a successful season, despite the team ' s bat¬ tle with inexperience. Last year ' s team took with them the top pitchers and hitters, but Coach Carroll hoped he could compensate with players from last year ' s Western Dig Six champion sophomore team. Nonetheless, the Rocks dia- mondmen look for a repeat of the 1977. when the Rocks last took the conference title. Our fielding looks strong, but work will need to be done in areas of pitching and hitting. We should have an overall success¬ ful season,’’ remarked Carroll, in his 10 years of coaching. Last year the sophomore team had a mirror image of the past 5 years. Sophomore head coach Gary Dender led the Pebbles to 3 Dig Six Crowns in a row and 6 in the past 7 years. It is diffi¬ cult to single out any individual person that stands out, they all make a big contribution, stat¬ ed Dender. Leading the Varsity were seniors Tim Thompson, Craig Yeocum, Michael Johnson and Juniors, Durwin Elliott and Tim Paxon. Pebble standous were Jamie Allison and Eric Lundgren. The girls softball team, led for the first time by Coach Jim Drown looked for the confer¬ ence title and a trip to state. When you want something bad enough said Coach Drown, you can get it. And we certainly do want this. The 1982 team was led by Deanne Styx, Joni Jawoisz, Sherry Roessler and Pam Pickett. Successful! That is the best way to describe the girls bas¬ ketball team, led by Tracy Ad¬ ams, Joni Jawiosz, Michelle Draud, and Angie Lewis. The girls captured a share of the ti¬ tle with East Moline, by escap¬ ing Galesburg in a hard fought game. The season on the whole was a little disappoint¬ ing, but winning the confer¬ ence made up for it. said ju¬ nior team member Joni Jawiosz.

Coach Walt Gerber commented, Towards the end of the season, I felt and the team felt, we were improv- ing. The biggest problem was their lock of a heavy weight wrestler after losing Jim Green, who suffered a neck injury dur¬ ing the first meet. The lighter weight were however, no less than awesome.

The Rocks advanced three other wrestlers to the state tournaments in Cham¬ paign, Quincy Steel at 105 lbs. Time Job” -Cooch Gerber Gteg Henderson at 126 lbs., and Victor Hall at 132 lbs. Though their record didn ' t show it, the team preformed well in duel meet competition and in their tournaments. The Rocks placed third in the sec¬ tionals in Rockford after send¬ ing only five wrestlers. They did have trouble how¬ ever in a duel meet against Moline. After a heated dis¬ agreement with a referee, the Rocks walked out. It was later appealed to the IHSA, and the meet was then considered a draw. Coach Gerber stated that wrestling is the best individual and team sport because of the supreme dedication it takes. It seams that dedication paid off for the Rocks. Tim Wright, 1l2lbs, practices his craft with a dummy before facing a real opponent. Despite the training and practicing, victory isn ' t always possible.

Organizations Members of the Marching Band proudly display their talents in the Augustana Homecoming parade. Activities at Rock Island high school were not limited to athletics only. Rocky mode available a large selection of clubs ond organizations, and os usual these gave students a chance to further their interests outside the classroom, yet not outside the school. The various organizations allowed students to become involved with their school, community, and even other countries. They could function as individuals or work as a group. The list of clubs at Rocky was always expandable to keep up with the pace and needs of students. Rocky ' s organizational program dealt with practically every interest demanded by the students. Some examples included the Senate, which fulfilled political interests, the Watchtower and Crimson Crier for journalism. High School Bowl and Chess Team for the masterminds, and Choir and Drama Club for the performers. These were only a small portion of the offerings at Rock Island high school. Work programs also fell into the club category. They gave students a shot at careers before they graduated. Whether it was nursing or clerical practices, opportunities in most job areas were available. These organiztions also counted as graduation credits. Spirit provided the backbone of the school. At Rocky there were several options to choose from to support the school. Pep Club had a large membership, and the school Marching and Pep Bands have been known for their fine talents and loyalty to the school. In order to raise money, many of the clubs held bake sales or candy sales, and some even sponsored dances. The money earned went towards field trips and porties for the organizations. Most club meetings were held after school, and it was during this time that members planned and worked together on their agendas for the school year. Overall. Rock Island high ' s extra curricular activities program was sufficient in meeting the needs and interests of the student body. The clubs ond organizations appealed to almost everyone for one reason or another. The need for participation created school involvement, which was both hard work and fun. The organizational program enabled students to broaden their knowledge and understanding of group effort. Marching Band Captures Trophy The Marching Rocks proved once again that hard work is a key to success. For the first time ever, they brought to Rocky the coveted Sweepstakes Trophy from Western Illinois University homecom¬ ing parade. This trophy was given to the best band in the parade. The band com¬ peted in Western’s parade as well as per¬ forming at the home football games and marching in other parades in and around the Quad Cities area. Pep Band could also be named Excite¬ ment.” A finalist in last year ' s IHSA State Tournment, this volunteer group showed both its musical talent and its ability to promote enthusiam at ballgames and pep assemblies. The jazz band sought to develop within its members a sense of America ' s music by playing a variety of musical styles in the jazz idiom. This group participated in fes¬ tivals at colleges and universities and same members participated at the All-Dis¬ trict and All-State levels. The concert band provided its members with a number of opportunities to develop and present their skills. Aside from home concerts and assembly programs at the ju¬ nior high schools, its members also partici¬ pated in state and area festivals and solo, ensemble and organizational contests.

Concert Band 71 Choral Groups Entertain With Pop Music Once again students put their voices together to produce the Chamber and Concert sections of Glee Club. Chamber and Concert consisted primarily of Ju¬ niors and Seniors but this year a few sophomores drifted in. These two choral groups were composed of Rock Island high schools ' best vocalists. Chamber and Concert performed for many organizations and programs at the neighboring grade schools. Their main performance, the Pops Concert, entertained many of the stu¬ dents at Rocky. They sang Hoggie Char- micheal, a country jamboree and many solos. Chamber also competed for a chance to sing at state and district competitions. To be heard above rhe many female voices, the few males in chamber chorus must sing our. Troy De France, Scott Simmer, and Greg Pursell pur their voices together to do jusr that.

They were students, who, because of personal problems did not feel they were happy in public high schools. The V.I.P. school let the students know that they were very important people. One of the schools main functions was to help get students involved in various activities. The directors worked with students on a one to one basis. Students worked on various pro¬ jects such as: art work and running the photo lab, which they recently added. The V.I.P. students attended class three hours a day, during which they could earn three credits. If they wished to earn equiv¬ alent high school credit, they were re¬ quired to hold a job after attending class for three hours. The V.I.P. students received a chance to study a variety of subjects including English and math. Approximately ten percent of V.I.P. graduates attended college through the school ' s fundings. The V.I.P. school re¬ sembled a college in several ways. The students had to apply to this school and students received a minimum amount of pressure from the instructors. The V.I.P. school provided a relaxed at¬ mosphere in which the students felt more comfortable, this enabled them to learn os much as possible.

Un¬ der new advisorship, the Senate planned and executed Homecoming Week, Harvest Hoe-Down, a blood drive. Swirl, Student Interest, and Charity Week. Homecoming Week was the Senate ' s first major task. Due to their organizational efforts, Gambler’’ performed at the coro¬ nation of the Homecoming court. The homecoming parade, held in downtown Rock Island, proved fun for all its specta¬ tors, as parade participants tossed a vari¬ ety of candy to those on the sidelines. Capping off Senate ' s Homecoming activi¬ ties was a dance. The theme of the home¬ coming dance and week was A Night In Camelot.” Dave Shropshire, disc jocky from KSTT, emceed the dance intermixing both fast and slow music to please evetyone in attendance. In working with the Mississippi Valley Regional Blood Center, Senate convinced students and teachers to donate blood. Special requirements involving weight, age, and general health, had to be met before a student or teacher could donate. Senators expressed pleasure with the gen- eiousity of students and teachers. The senate conceived new programs also. The new Harvest Hoe-Down was a dance designed to get the upper and low- et classes to mingle. A Charity Week was also started. An unusual dance that the Senate spon¬ sored was the annual Sweetheart Swirl.” Gills finally got the chance to ask that spe¬ cial someone out for an evening. The only drawback for the ladies was that they also paid the tab. With objectives met, and goals set for the future, the Senate proved that they had good leadership and organization throughout the year. Senate Officers: First Row: Ken Grawe parlimenta- tian.

Ski Club consisted of an energetic group of students interested in learning and par¬ ticipating in skiing events. The club ' s first trip took place after the first semester final exams. Skiers took off on an adventurous trip to Devil ' s Head Ski Lodge. Paying their own bus fare and ski¬ ing expenses, members endured the five hour journey to Wisconsin. With the opening of the new Snowstar Ski Lodge in Andalusia, skiers exercised their downhill skills closer to home. The club planned to use these new facilities to set up races for fun and a little competition. There was no bus fare needed because of the proximity of the lodge. Ski club welcomed all skiers, from the novice to the advanced skier. With such a variety of skills, the club proved fun for all who joined in.

One of these clubs was High School Bowl. The team faced several challenges against other school teams. The competition helped test the knowledge of the team members. The team competed on television against a team of equal skill. Chess club also required thinking and intelligence, along with an unexpected stay in St. Louis when the team was snowed in. The team traveled widely to play against teams in matches and tourna¬ ments. Both the varsity and freshman prac¬ ticed in the library after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The skill of taking professional pictures, and learning to develop film in the dark¬ room were the major tasks Mr. Armstrong taught to the Camera Club.

It consisted of mote than just brownies or sugar cookies; their friendly service and warm smiles also contributed to the wor. thy cause. Although some members sacri. ficed watching a thrilling and exciting bas¬ ketball game, they helped the organiza- zion by working in the concession stands. The money made from the bake sales and concession stands went for eating in an exclusive French restaurant, Chesis Ra- chuid, in Muscatine. That is where all the French Clubs in the past had gone. In the end. it turned out the French Club mem¬ bers had worked and planned for a worthy cause.

Second semester ' s class again changed the Crier s format by adding an ad¬ vice column and a State of the Senate ' ' re¬ port. Second semester Crimson Crier sraff consists of: First Row: Liz Wayne. Second Row: Chris Gulley and Teresa Moore. Third Row-. Kris Sroes, Tony Vondewalle. Tracy Adams, and Ann Schiller. Fourth Row: Rodney Jones, Druce Hun- ecke. Jonni Hendren, and Mr. Peschang. Fifth Row: Cheryl Hulting, Mike Carroll, Shelly Rohr, Tab Smith, Tera Datter- son, Tom Smith, Julie Collins, and Scott Dowden.

Chris Gulley employes his liter¬ ary skills to assure a good edition. Crimson Crier 10 Watchtower Combines Creative Work, Fun A little more class was the theme agreed upon for the 1981-82 Watchtower. For the first time ever, staff opened a con¬ test for cover designs, with Debbie Heinz taking the honor. After cover design was decided, staff had to agree upon cover color and texture. Preliminary preparations had been agreed upon, staff received their first page assignments and were required to meet their first deadline. After the staff met two deadlines they celebrated by turning the staff picrute day into a party. Following a trip to Merlyn’s for pictures, staff went to Happy Joes for pizza and partying. It was definitely an unusual exper¬ ience, stated Peggy Lee, staff photogra¬ pher. Staff members hod fun at the party, the pizza and pop were devoured and wishes were told on Santa ' s lap, but soon it was time to meet yet another deadline. As the semester break neared students had already become familiar with such terms as layout, copy, double page spread, gutter, and cropping. The y ear¬ book jargon was somewhat foreign to staff at the start of the year, but once they started to become organized and the hub¬ bub died down these terms were used in every day language. Soon the staff started to pull together and work toward one com¬ mon goal: working to put together a classy” yearbook. The skills staffers learned such as design¬ ing a page, and writing captions could be used in life. Along with learning these skills yearbook staff was also required to take time out after school to take pictures and interview teachers, coaches, and students. Often staff also had to stay after school ro work on deadlines. Yearbook took up a lot of my time, but, I really enjoyed it, staff member Kelley Wendlond stated. Staff learned new techniques, adjusted to a whole new area of journalism, and got used to deadlines. By the end of the first semester staff had skills to put together the 1981-82 Watchtower with expertise and class. Sorting through stocks of pictures, editors, Dorlene Bartell and Mary Edwards try to find just the right pictures to fit their layouts. A visit to old Saint Nick adds to the Christmas cheer, Rita Roach, Teresa Stamper, and Dave Gellerman put in their orders for what they ' d like to find under their tree.

An education consists of much more than just a high school diploma or a college degree. Learning is the major part of receiving a good education, but it is what the student leatns that is important. The academic program at Rock Island high school strives to offer its students the best education possible so that after graduation the student will retain knowledge of the past, which will be,revelant to his present, and also knowledge vital to his future. If a student Is expected to learn, he must first be Interested in the subject. Rocky offers a wide spectrum of courses to choose from. The three basics, reading, writing, and arithmetic, are ever present in numerous variations. There are remedial courses such as Basic Math, and there are advanced courses like College English. The list of options is quite long, with courses available for college credit, introductory coutses, and even courses which include on-the-job training. Also appearing on the list of options are vocational-technical courses. These give students the chance to work while they learn. Rocky ' s campus includes an auto¬ body and auto-mechanics building, along with a welding shop. Boys, as well os girls, participate in experiencing skills which they can utilize in their futures. On-fhe-job training In areas such as Home Economics, Nursing, and Office Occupations, plus many more, are also available. The benefits these courses have to offer ore very valuable. They aid in broadening the student ' s perspective of life, and open up areas of careers for his future. The wide range of facilities of Rock Island high school enable students to experience what they are learning. This keeps the student interested, and encourages him to try harder in his studies. The academic program at Rocky not only teaches the fundamentals, but how to get by in life. Wisdom comes from being able to communicate at all levels and have a common ground with every class. This ideal is put Into effect at Rock Island high school, because it offers something for everyone. Mike Drown aids o friend in finding a book needed for o term paper. Academics 111 116 English English Students Take Part In Film Making Of the many English elective classes offered one choice. Understanding Film Communications aroused much interest. This course covered history, appreciation and un¬ derstanding of screen literature. By taking Film Communications students benefited in several ways. They learned to understand the manner and thoughts, color and design, and literature involved. Skillful handling and training, and clever influence of the types of films they viewed were also learned. Students participated in activities where they took a crack at making their own films starring their friends. These could later be entered into an area¬ wide film festival. Film Communications was not the only option available though. Mythology, Composition, Individ¬ ualized Reading, Image of Man, British Literature and Creative Writing wete just a few of the numer- ous English electives. Rock Island high school ' s English department could be said to have had something to offer every¬ one. English Spanish, French, German Students Communicate In Second Language The study of o second language such as Spanish, French, or German, broadened students ' view of the world they live in. Students who took a foreign language were also able to understand better their own language by increasing reading ability and vocabulary. History, music, and art of the individual countries became more meaningful after the stu¬ dents enrolled in the language. The foreign language department emphasized reading and writing skills, as well as geography, history, and cultures. Visiting foreigners often high¬ lighted the classes, making them more interesting. The use of handouts, visual aids, and lab work also enhanced the course. To experience ethnic cuisine, students took short field trips to sample foreign delicasies such as saur- brauten, authentic Mexican tacos, and escargot. Any student who enrolled in a foreign language class benefited from the study of a second Ian- guage. Students did not have to leave Illinois to utilize a different language, or realize the influence that different cultures had on American soceity. Thomas Spann and Steve Bailey are engrossed in perfecting their Spanish writing skills. During German, Kris Staes practices speaking in German with a tew of her classmates.

Foreign Languages 1 I J ' L x uffl Science Students Discover Microscopic World Clattering of test tubes and focusing on microlife in a fish tank was only a small part of lab days in science. Students enjoyed lab days because it gave them a chance to move around and participate in experiments. They performed this to the day to day lectures and note taking. The variety of Science classes offered at Rocky included Introductory to Science, Biology, and Chemistry, to list only a few. Students learned many things in Science. Each student had an opportunity to experiment with different chemicals, to discover the microscope world, to learn the basics of growing plants, and to dissect a pig. Science also offered various field trips around the area. Some visits were to the Sewage and Water Treatment plants. Black Hawk Park, Mill Creek, and Sunset Marina. By enrolling in a Science course students were able to experience the wide areas of opportunities in future careers. Lobs ore a major parr of every chemistry course. Shelly Watkins, Dana Good, and Tina Plechaty carefully prepare for their experiment. Taking care of the animals and plants in the class rooms is not always the teachers job. Denny Hill feeds the fish in his science class. 120 Science Math Helps Students to Solve Problems Math, a basic skill used by all, challenged every student for at least a year. However, many stu¬ dents decided to venture further into more ad¬ vanced levels such as algebra, geometry, trigo¬ nometry, and calculus. In algebra, students no longer worked with just arithmetic, but with variables. Students learned dif¬ ferent equations and how to go about working them into story problems. After taking algebra, stu¬ dents could then advance to geometry. In this course, students learned about theorems, postu¬ lates, and polygons. The more advanced courses, continued to higher levels of this kind of math. No matter what level of math students took. Rock Is¬ land High School ' s math department had a course to fit them. Gene Cook finds o quiet little hideaway to work on his moth homework. So that he has no homework, Kevin Soeken works diligently to finish his math. 122 Mathematics Students Get Down To Business When thinking of business courses, secretaries usually come to mind. For instance, typing clerical practice, and shorthand were all taken by students training for the secretarial field. However, other business courses at Rocky presented subject for more than just secretarial fields. Students could en¬ roll in data processing, programming, and account, ing. These courses trained students for many differ¬ ent jobs. In data processing and programming, stu¬ dents learned how to use computers and how to make computer programs. Students learned to use many office equipment machines, such as typewriters. Radio shack and Apple computers, adding machines, and filing cabi¬ nets. These techniques were vital in the business world. In accounting students learned lidgers, journals, and other skills to aid them in owning their business or keeping books for any others. In data processing students learned more about computers, how to use them as a tool, and began to study the language which is called ' basic”- the most popular language on micro-computers. Stu¬ dents were fortunate enough to have micro-com¬ puters at Rock Island main campus. There were two different types of data processing. Introductory was one hour a day for a semester. In this class students wrote programs or read how to use computers. This class prepares for the advanced class which is a vocational. Students had time to put their programs in the computers since it ran two hours a day for a year . Typing One and Two taught students how to use a typewriter, learn the keys, and center their work. They learned the different types of business head¬ lines, how to type a term paper, manuscripts, and envelopes. During class students were time tested, and graded on how fast and accurate they were. These courses oriented the students for jobs in the progressing world of computers. Sue Kinkaid, Tim Miers, ond Morno Mieloszyk pay dose attention to their next assignment. Students that are interested in computers for their future career learn the skills in Data Processing. 124 Business IgU WORKBOOK ' 1 I . r J HPt - | BS£ V; I mCmn M VUO, 9Mm J, 3MM?r2f ' 1 I ' mSP i i j ■ pm 3 .■ 4.1 5 -ul ml m m 1 Past And Present Are Doth Taught In History The Rocky history deportment spent another busy year, educating students on the past. Included in the history department were civics, government, and world and American history and European his¬ tory. The freshmen students were required to take civics. This course dealt with United States govern¬ ment and basic civil functions. Although there was no sophomore history requirement, many tenth graders elected to take world history. Juniors were required to take American history. This educated students about the country, from the first thirteen colonies to the present day. Government, required for seniors taught the upperclass all about the pro¬ cedures of government. This class informed students of their rights as citizens and who makes the rights for them. Upon graduation, a Rocky student who has taken three years of classes in the histroy department, can be assured of being more aware of their gov- ernment functions. Stacey Ryerson leads the class in a mock debate. I know this answer, thinks Rod Reed, when taking his American History test. Charlie Myles takes notes from his history book. 126 Social Studies Many techniques are used in the health classes to help students learn. Mr. Friedrichsen illustrates the reproductive organs of the female body. Health education involves many class hours of note taking. When approaching a car with the marking ’’Student Driver other drivers are aware that a beginner is behind the wheel. In Drivers education students are taught to check behind them while backing up. Chang Jung glances in his rear view mirror before he puts the cor in motion. 126 Health. Driver ' s Education Maintaining Good Health Promotes Safe Driving Drivers education consisted of two classes in one. The classroom phase involved the various driving techniques and rules of the road. Students also gained knowledge about other relared subjects such as insurance, maintenance, drugs, and alco¬ hol. The second phase was behind the wheel train¬ ing. Students were required to have 3 ' 2 hours of actual street driving and 12 hours of simulation. The main objective of this class steered towards provid¬ ing students with a proper orientation of good driv¬ ing habits. Students also had to prepare a notebook and a project due at the end of the semester. They planned a 1,000 mile trip, purchased an imaginary car, and figured up insurance. All of this helped students to become good, safe drivers. Health class often filled the extra semester gap after many sophomores took drivers education. Health classes not only focused on human well¬ being, but it also taught students about the phys¬ ical, mental, social, and spiritual aspects of life. Health was a required sophomore course in which students received basic instruction on drugs, mental health, physical health, sexuality, first aid, and safety. During the first aid section of class students ob¬ tained a chance to earn a Red Cross certification. They learned CPR and mouth-to-mouth recessito- tion, along with correct bandaging and splinting procedures. Guest speakers from places such as the mental health center came frequently. There was also a field trip to the mental health center. After taking health, sophomores were able to lead a better life by applying the principles the class had taught them.

Along with contests, chorus, band, and orchestra members put together a pops concert, and per¬ formed for school assemblies. To raise money for trips, uniforms, and other necessities the students sold grapefruits and oranges in their annual sale. Another exciting event this year for band mem¬ bers was taking first place in band competition at Western Illinois University. The music classes were active in all aspects and consequently rewarded for their hard work. Pracricing for district is nerve rocking but olso exciting. Mike Pepping works of getting the song perfect. Accompanying the chorus class on the piano is a tedious task. Robin Rayborn, however, still enjoys taking time out from singing to play. Jeff Mondoy. Hank Holtz, Chris Gulley, Stocey Durton.

Brian Walker, Steve Nations and Jon Rummels work together painting scenery for the full play Solid Gold Cadillac. ' ' Drama and Art Art Class Draws Attention to Drama Dromo and Art were semester electives that could be taken at Rocky. Drama taught students the tricks of the trade in acting as well as behind the scenes in designing. In drama, one learned how to recite lines, and per¬ form on a stage. They studied famous plays and actors, and also learned how to build the scenes behind the plays themselves. Art is a talent envied by many. Students who took art classes made sketches, figures, paintings, shadings, and other artistic designs. In class they brushed up on old techniques and learned various new ones. Their work ond projects were displayed throughout the year in several eye-catching dis¬ plays. cufh ) The right color is important in creating a masterpiece V according to Drian Rice.

Drama and Art 1 Gym Classes Take Turn Toward Coed Rising with the sun, and going outside in 30 degtee weather, the earlybird gym classes man¬ aged to muddle through their outdoor activities. These activities consisted of tennis, golf, track, soccer, speed ball, flag football, and field hockey. Each grade took about three weeks at teach activ¬ ity, in which they learned the correct rules of the game and the exact way to play them. When the weather got too cold the gym classes moved indoors. Activities inside included swim¬ ming, volleyball, gymnastics, dancing, table tennis, badminton, basketball, and scuba diving. Teachers hoped the classes would benefit from physical education through both their minds and bodies. Exercise in gym classes improved the car- dio-vascular system and promoted good sportsman¬ ship. With the increase of students this year gym classes were coed which gave the students and teachers a change of pace. Dove Malone moves in for the dunk while Brian Mopp goal tends. Ed Kernin watches expectantly as Mark Hart moves in for the game winning point. 134 Physical Education Physical Education 13! Future Homemakers Learn Basic Skills Home economics consisted of many classes in¬ cluding child care and interior decorating. These classes prepared both male and female students for adult life. Another phase of home economics, beginning foods and advanced foods, taught students about nutrition, balanced diet, and the preparation of foods. Good grooming and dress, also essentiol, were taught in the clothing classes in addition to the production of clothing. The home economics courses, offered as part of the vocational education program, included courses such as the Basic Nurse Assistant and Home Econom¬ ics related occupations Co-Op. These courses of¬ fered students at the hospital and various other establishments which trained them for the job of their choice. These home economics classes were designed for students to achieve tealistic career planning and have a better chance of persuing a good career in the future. Tonya Roderiquez, Wendy Sanders, and Sherry Simmons hove pride in their smiles os they display the rolls they made in home economics.

Shop Courses Prepare Students For Future Jobs The Industrial Arts department provided many courses. The options included autobody, autome¬ chanics, welding, woodshop, printing, machine shop, mechanical drawing, general electricity, car¬ pentry, and drafting. Some of these classes lasted two hours and counted as two credits. These shop oriented courses prepared students for more detailed training and for jobs dealing with the newly learned skills. The special projects ranged from making a ham¬ mer, to making a cannon, and even a small air¬ craft. Often, students were able to enter their cre¬ ations into art fairs. Not only did students make handy and magnifi- cient items, they learned a trade, which, when put to practice, could mean a career paying very good wages. Although Industrial Arts dealt with welding and producing. Vocational classes took building and producing one step further. Students painted and rebuilt old model cars. Vocational classes focused on preparing students for job entry. Occasionally students left campus and took jobs in such places as John Deere and Interna¬ tional Harvester. Vocation classes offered guidance and informa¬ tion necessary for realistic job planning. After graduation, guidance counselors assisted students with their post-high school educational plans or job placement opportunities. Tony Garcia carefully arranges marerial for the Crimson Crier in his printshop class. Students learn many ueful skills in their shop courses. Tim Sanders works with just a few of the tools available in his woodshop class. Rodney Jones builds a dresser in his carpentry class.

Students, teachers, and personnel all combined together to create the school and its atmosphere. They laughed together, cried together, triumphed together, and failed together. Rocky’s school spirit in 1981-82 did not come from the building, but from its contents - people. This year Rocky had more people than ever before because of the addition of fhe Freshmen class. There were more faces, more classes, and lots more fun. Though some claimed the addition was troublesome, actually if was rather fun. It made getting to class on time a challenge. It wos always fun to see a classmate try to explain to the teacher how he couldn ' t get through the hall, when in reality he had spent too much time talking to his girlfriend. Extra curricular events were more fun too. Attendance was larger and the school spirit louder. People showed up at dances and games, and provided their own enjoyable surroundings. The 1981-82 basketball team had another winhing season which gave the spectators sound reason to stand up and shout We are Rockyl” Sports were not fhe only events with bigger attendance though. Clubs and organizations finally had a year of larger memberships. One club or another kept Rocky busy with various functions and sales. A high school would not be complete without its ups and downs, and Rocky sure hod a lot of those. Seniors spent most of their time excitingly awaiting graduation day, while their counselors kept hounding them on their credit situations. Juniors played the roles of middlemen, and always worked together to keep the spirit high. For their first year, sophomores did pretty well at keeping out of trouble, and avoiding senior pranks. And finally, the Freshmen actually enjoyed pushing their way through the upperclassmen ' s kneesl There were so many times when things seemed so complicated and involved, thot one student said, The people at Rock Island high school would make up a good soap opera story. In many aspects this was true. Rocky ' s people seldom endured a dull moment while there was so much taking place every day. All in all they upheld another yearly tradition of pride.

SHIRLEY ROWLAND A deep loss was felt throughout the entire Rock Island district due to the death of Mrs. Shirley Rowland. She touched many with her warmth and friendship, always ready with a genuine and radiant smile. Her eternal optimism and sense of humor brought joy to all who knew her - students and staff alike. A great caring for others was exhibited by Mrs. Rowland in her long dedication to teaching. With enthusiasm, she shared her adverse talents with her students. Those who were lucky enough to work with Mrs. Rowland on one of her numerous theatrical productions gained the valuable experience of participation in a professional performance. Her influence will continue as the presence of her vibrant spirit remains with us. Thanks, Sam.

First row: Mrs. Ballard, Chris Lear. Jim Peterson. Chad Larson,. Second row: Rory Gunter, Craig Sharp, Glenn Elston. The senior doss of 1982 excelled in its number of honors. Two students qualified os Notional Merit Scholarship Semi- finalists and eight more were designated National Merit Scholarship Commend¬ ed. Students, Honors were based on P.S.A.T. scores. The Illinois State Scholarship Commission honored thirty-five seniors as Illinois State Scholars. Selection was based on test scores, grades and class rank. The Daughter of the American Revolution and Son of the American Revolution nominations were chosen by their fellow classmates. Rocky teachers selected the final recipients. Scholarships were plentiful for the class of ' 82. Thousands of dollars were awarded to a large number of students headed for college in the fall. Qualifica¬ tions included scholastic ability, grades, class rank, test scores and financial need. D.A.R. and S.A.R. winners are Tandy Niemann and Ricky Keys. National Merit Scholarship Semi-finalists ore Tim Hurl- butt and Dawn Miles. Ricky Keys breaks through a banner, made by the varsity cheer, leaders, at a home basketball gome against East Moline. I Only Hope We Will Always Remember The Fun Times We Shored The class of ' 62 created many memories, all stored with the knowledge gained at Rocky. Another first place home¬ coming float was designed and built by the imaginative students. The senior powder-puff team defeated the ju¬ niors in a hard fought, legitomote football game. Mr. Para- diso taught us well and the girls listened attentively to the assistant coach, Augustana senior Laura Johnson. The senior bonfire at Black Hawk State Park in the fall left us with cold feet, burnt marshmallows, and warm hearts. We encountered the first open lunch periods when no cars were allowed out of the parking lots. The good- humored seniors also suffered through the freshmen’s first year on the main campus. Our minds have absorbed our memories, the pictures of the days gone by. The years of high school have ended. A snowman withstands the extreme cold of January, before he disappears with the first rays of sunshine. 184 Seniors Julie Cariu s. Tandy Niemann. Ashley Gragg, Cindy Johnson.

The thing I dislike is the crowded stairways between classes. Trish Elston I like the guys, sports, clubs and some classes. My dislikes are there are too many people in the halls and on the stairs. Gail Dowling I think the best thing about our school is how the student ' s get along with each other, and how they adjust to changes. The thing I dis¬ like is how the school is crowded and some of the attitudes toward school.

Freshmen 25 A Final Touch Of Class In O o Rocky students protest the closed parking lots by gathering at the Rock. — Cinderalla. Robin Rayborn, watches the spectators in the Homecoming parade. As the final year for seniors, and the final few pages of the yearbook, the exit sign symbolizes the door of the future. Darlene Dortell tries to stop the camera man from snapping her picture. 226 Closing Too fired to participate, Tim Davidson and Quincy Steele rake k easy during their P.E. class. Writing a closing story for o yearbook was not a simple thing to do. It took a lot of time and effort to try and capture every tiny detail of the year ' s events. Both victories and losses needed to be mentioned, and every joy and sorrow too. Even after all that it couldn ' t be summed up in o few paragraphs. The 1981-02 school year started off on a bad note for many. The upperclassmen were an¬ gry about the addition of the Freshmen, and the Freshmen were angry about the addition of the upperclassmen! Rocky students were also upset with the closing of the parking lots and the two hour parking on the streets. Noth¬ ing could really be done about the situations, so after o month or so of complaining, every¬ one forgot about them. 1982 seniors were blessed with another winning athletic season and successful dances. For two years in a row they won first place for their homecoming float and de¬ served it. The 1982 graduating doss was one which worked well together in creating fun. Most of the school year was filled with something, whether large or small, that pro¬ vided excitement. There were always class clowns who pulled the fire alarm right in the middle of final exoms. And there was that one time” during lunch, when some boy was outside attempting back flips, or the cat that kept jumping in the window of the class¬ room. This year students watched the wres¬ tling team leave Moline ' s gym after bad calls by the referee, and the basketball team pile up a record score of 121 points against Rock Falls. The year definitely kept people occu¬ pied. For many the school day became so routine that they knew automatically when the bells would ring. Sometimes it seemed like Friday would never come so that students could go to parties, games and on dates. Anticipation was long for everyone wondering if he or she would be asked to that special dance. The 1981-82 school year at Rock Island High school was filled with many events that will never be forgotten. For Freshmen it was just the beginning, but for seniors it was the end of twelve years of both hord work and fun. Rock Island high school ended the year with A little more class.” Having fun on fhe job, Vance fosses a film into the next room.

Index 237 Students Complete Year With Class As worm summer weather began closing in, And graduation plans were present everywhere, Students all looked bock at where they ' d been With thoughts of joy and sorrow in the air. Teachers all started packing up everything. Fines and detentions put off till the last day. And everyone longed to hear the last bell ring, Signaling vacation so they could be on their way. Some will never be attending another class here. And others will be back for many more years. Looking back at the 1961-62 Rocky school year People will remember both good and bad times. Plenty of good teams and reason to cheer All added up to the school’s victory signs. The addition of Freshmen was something new. It definitely caused chaos for all involved. The hal ls were too crowded to even get through, Dut after a while all problems were resolved. Everyone made it through both ups and downs With facial expressions of smiles and frowns. On the inside looking out. Drama dub members Andi VanHook, Chris Gulley, Barb Eagle, Terry Tingle, and Pom Sedgewick share a few laughs. Excited by the thought of graduation, Peggy Lee practices for the big day.” Thinking shes Vera on Alice.” Annette Johanson has a small catastrophe with straws at her job at Hardee ' s. 236 Closing Representing Rocky with doss, Lourio Ritemon, Dione Robinson, Vernito Walker, and Theresa Newberry take time to visit the elderly. Posing with their wrestling dummy, TNT, Tim Wright, Quincy Steele, Victor Hall, and Vance Smith know they ' re dynamite. Closing 239 Debbie Heinze won the 1982 cover contest. Her design was chosen from over 100 entries submitted from the art students. The design signifies that the Fresh- men Class entered the main campus for the first year ever. The class of 1985 came from two junior highs, Washing¬ ton and Edison. The front cover symbol¬ izes the entire campus. The back cover shows that the entire ' Rock ' ' pulled to¬ gether to support the entering Fresh¬ men and to have the classiest year ever. John T. Murphy Principal Charles J. Paradiso Asst.
