ITTNLR, Consulting Architect - Saint Lout %, Mo. mmmm The anniversary of our design September 7, 1937, Rock Island High School opened its doors, and its first 44 teachers and 1200 students moved in. Even then Rocky was different from all other area schools; with the biggest campus and most modern facilities in the entire Mid-West region. A product of the late depression period, the construction provided many needed jobs for the area ' s unemployed. As taken from a program from the dedication ceremony: When the Federal Emergency Relief Administration of Public Works made available to Rock Island over $400,000 for the erection of an adequate (school) building, Rock Island ' s citizens voted to increase the educational tax rate to balance the cost. The ground was broken in December of 1935 and it was officicially completed in October of 1937. For the time, the building, aside from it ' s beautiful 35 acre campus and the stadium bowl that seated 13,000 was quite remarkable. The modern stage lights in the auditorium alone were the talk of the town. The same kiln the art students use today was also a modern feature, an added plus, as were the “moveable-type desks , bulletin boards, and a unique little theatre, specially lighted, specially designed, and seating 208 persons. The third floor corridor was specially treated with skylights and monk cloth-covered bulletin boards for the display of art objects. It seems every detail of the building was so carefully thought out, that even today, fifty years later we use these intended details as they were originally planned. But of course the building is only a small part of what makes Rocky so unique. Those first 1200 students brought with them a special sense of pride that every class that passes through here uses. It ' s a feeling that endlessly roams the halls, that fills up the gaps between the youths of that era and ours, that helps us excell above so many others in talent, and ability, it ' s what makes up our very special Rock Island Design.

This year found more involved students than ever. Being a nerd was the way to set the week of activities off to a start. Greek gods and goddesses carried on by adding boots to their apparel. Gangsters took Rocky back to the classic look of the 30 ' s for a memorable day. Were they birds ? were they planes ? No, they were Rocky ' s own super heroes! Those Pyramid building is always the favorite lunchtime activity. Eating a pie without a fork wasn’t as easy as Curt Wilson had anticipated courageous students made the halls feel a little safer. Winding up the week, red and gold appeared the only colors created. New lunchtime activities gave students a chance to show off their hidden talents. The pie eating and bubble blowing contest left no room for proper etiquette. Passing a banana between your knees was an oozing process, mean while missing a small water balloon left a few students slightly damp. Getting on top first was the challenge in the pyramid building. Although, tumbling down was a painfull experience many wanted to join in the contest. The senoir class of ' 87 has dominated the Spirit Week award for four consecutive years. Way to go seniors! As long as there is school spirit at Rocky,Spirit Week festivities will never come to an end. Taking time away from doing good deeds, Rory super hero group shot.

Capturing the look of the 30 s gave Mary Beth Udy and Richie Ballinger the opportunity to cuddle close. The balloon toss needed a delicate touch and water repellent clothing.

Good times rolled Good times did roll over the 1986 Homecoming festivities and Rocky students had a great time. The traditional Homecoming assembly was one of the best. The Pep Club’s performance of the Rocky Shuffle brought smiles to team members, coaches and students. Laughter couldn ' t be contained when the overly made up second string cheerleaders were introduced by Bertha . Not wanting to be shown up, the real cheerleaders performed an excellent choreographed dance routine to the tune of Kiss by Prince. The assembly ended with the announcement of prince and princess, Chester Hickman and Twyla Perkins, and the crowning of King Fred Oelshlaeger and Queen Wendy Hunter. A blue sky and warm temperatures were the perfect day for a parade. The Junior ' s colorful rolling pin rolled its way to the number one award winner. Even a defeat by Moline couldn ' t ruin fans loyal school spirit as they cheered until the closing second. The brightly decorated girls gym was the place to be on Saturday night. The music played by alumnus, Ron Hotchkiss, had everyone on their feet keeping the beat. The night ended too soon, for another Homecoming had come and gone. But the memories of the 1986 Homecoming will be of Rocky’s ability to Let the Good Times Roll. Your most intimate friend Turn my three numbers and inside you will find all of the treasured possessions of a high school student. I’m your best friend during the course of a school day. On some days you ' ll make three or four trips to see me. For four years I stand by your side, guard your lunch, hold your notes, and anything else that you ruthlessly stuff inside of me. I know all about you, your friends, your teachers, and even who you are dying to go out with. I hear all of your conversations for you practically speak into me. I ' ve seen fifty years of students go by. I am the eyes and ears of Rock Island High School. I ' m your locker, oh the stories I could tell! I have never done anything purposely to hurt you. Ok, sometimes I won ' t open the first couple of times you try, but I don ' t think that is any excuse for the treatment you give me. You kick me, hit me, and leave your lunch inside of me for weeks and even months. And just who do you think pays for all of this torture? I do! Oh sure, when it comes time for locker clean-out you ' ll smell a little bit of the ham pimento loaf from last fall. What you must remember is that it was pinned under thirty wonderful pounds of sweaty, stinky, moldy, gym clothes, and the combined aroma is not easily forgotten. What I love the most about the typical student is that he is gracious enough to lend out my services to all of his friends. You and your friends will shove thirty and forty pounds of stolen textbooks in me with classes ranging from auto mechanics to sewing and biology to calculus. Even with all that I am put through I am not bitter in any way. I have had so many wonderful experiences in my life time that a few bad apples can ' t spoil all of the good times. Without you, the students, I would lead a life of total boredom. 8 Opening Saturdays provide lockers with some needed peace and quiet after an exhausting work week. Sonja Motz relaxes between classes. Opening These jazzy looking shoes were all seen this past year tapping down the halls. New styles of hair were displayed by Cindy Benja¬ min, Liz Delong, John Fout, Cindy Cole, Shannon Keatly. Missy Seward. Shelli Curtis. Amy Helpen- stell, and Ginger Chance. Treye Hovinga proudly displays his hard work. James Foster, Leslie Alli son, and John Yancy show some upbeat fashions. 10 Opening Cindy Cole. Lori Ballinger. Julie Foster. Cristia Spaight, Jill Ketm, Jenny Bauersfield. and Anne Summers are all dressed for fall. Stolen milk crates provide excellent storage space. Showcase of fashion The latest rings, watches, bracelets, and accesories were shown hands down. Tony Thompson. Lisa Beck. Delisa Springfield. Sharon Fuller. Wendy Hunter, and Paul Peterson, step into style with their printed pants. Rocky, like most high schools, was a showcase of the latest in fashions. Everything that was at the malls or in magazines could be found in the halls of Rocky modeled by our friends. Hair seemed to have become more versital then ever. Guys and girls were daring to do things to their hair the stylist never even thought of. The football team started the year by shaving their numbers into their hair along with geometric designs. Buzzes and flat tops were suddenly back in style. The ledge was a popular cut for both boys and girls. The fluffier the better also described this year ' s hair. Many girls were teasing their hair again to gain fullness and body. The Tina Turner took was definately in. Psychadelic hair caught everyones eye. Gold, silver and red, were all great colors to try if you felt you needed a temporary change. The clothes worn this season definately shocked a few people. Teens loved the ripped jeans, painted sweat shirts, colorful long underwear, spot bleached jeans, black Reeboks, and bowling shoes. Where did you find these fine items ? At any thrift shop, garage sale, or the Salvation Army all carried the inexpensive hot fashions. Accessories were fun to wear and jazzed up any outfit. Swatches were popular last year but they were hotter than ever this year along with Guess, Gucci, and Forenza. The leather strips around the wrist or ankel were cool, but what did those knots mean ? Opening 11 The best kind of education Most think of high school as only educating young adults about history and the Pythagorean theorem. But a teenager receives only part of his education in the classroom. The high school years are the years when a teenager must learn how to get along with other people, how to make friends and establish relationships. And most importantly establish relationships with the opposite sex. Learning to do this may be more difficult than any class a counselor can offer, but it must be done and everyone knows that the best way to learn is by trial and error. We call this trial and error method, dating. I ' m sure you remember your first date. How nervous you were, how many times you thought about calling it due to illness and all the times you called your friends for reassurance . Of course on your first date the butterflies don ' t stop when the evening begins. You are constantly worried about what to do or say next, sort of learning as you go along. But against all odds the date was usually a success and suddenly you doubled your effort and enthusiasm in this new subject . When you really think about all the thousands of terrible things that can happen on a date even the most seasoned veteran will get uptight. But somehow teenagers can overlook these things and concentrate only on the good aspects. Sharing in the excitement when your boyfriend ' s team wins, or the scent of your favorite perfume encasing a kiss goodnight can ' t be forgotten. Like all lessons in high school, dating can be difficult. But for many, finding the right person is more rewarding than getting an A on any mid-term exam. Walking home isn ' t so bad when you use the time to talk about guys as Berthenia Austin.

Cheryl Young and Tricia Day trim Kevin Fink lights the menorah, signifying the begin- the tree in time for Christmas. ning of Hanukkah. Holidays were fun. exciting times in our lives. They allowed us a break from boring routines, supplied special traditions and provided a reason to be with our friends. Christmas probably headed our list of all time favorite holidays. Not only did we gather with friends on cold, snowy evenings to trim the tree and bake cookies but then we got to eat the goodies in front of a blazing fire. Once the seemingly endless gifts were opened, we never lost count of how many more days of vacation were left. If you were big on eating, the Thanksgiving turkey might have topped your favorite day list. For those with rather sadistic minds, visits to Holloween For John Hunter. Shannon Keatley, Jason Vance. Amy Helpenstell. Kristen Dorch, Tammy Tyree and Treye Hovinga midnight was the highlight of their New Years Party. haunted houses and midnight ventures through earie graveyards were the highlight of the year. Hanukkah brought forth the unusual with its many candles and numerous presents during the eight day celebration. As high school students we looked forward to a special date on Valentine ' s Day, we had to act a bit silly on St. Patrick ' s Day and we were sure to have an unforgettable party to bring in the new year. Whether we were with family or friends, whether we were in town or at some dream vacation spot, holidays always gave us a welcome break from nine long months of education. Jason Vance and Kristen Dorch share a special mo¬ ment on Valentines Day. 14 Opening Dusty Dusenberry proudly displays one of HY- VEE’S finest turkeys. Richie Ballinger, Cheryl Young, Dori Blomgren. David Parks is about to pay the price for taking a Christi Morehouse, and Michele Young enjoy an shortcut home on Halloween, evening of making X-mas cookies. Opening 15 — Most people miss the beauty of a sunrise because it’s in the morning so the sun gives you another chance at night. People often go back to bed and sometimes stay there while waiting for their shower to get warm. Dana Munson, Tileaka Easter, and Heather Nichols breaks down in the morning, realize that it’s going to be a bad day when their car 16 Opening The two worst words , Coming in before school to take a test is a good way to catch up for Danny Shallman. Ted Rossow tries to get some extra sleep before attendance in earlybird gym. Of all the two word expressions in use today, one stands apart from the others as the most painful a person can hear. Think of every, two word combination you can. The demanding ones, the obscene ones, the sad ones. You could spend your whole life putting two single words together and never find an expression that ' s more upsetting than; Wake up! When asked what is their least favorite thing to do, most teenagers will place waking up before 10:30 a m. on a weedend in between being burned at the stake and being eaten alive by sharks. Once that first big move has been made to get in an upright position you feel you way to the bathroom. If rooms make up the personality of a house the bathroom must definately be honesty. Honesty of course is the arch enemy of a trait called ego. For the ongoing battle between the two your bathroom has armed itself with two weapons, both fatal to the ego. The mirror, which got Snow White into so much trouble, and her brother the scale. Like a magnet the mirror draws your now half open eyes to her. In a split second it destroys the work your ego spent hours building during the night. You realize that the mirror isn’t lying, that you were tricked by ego ' s brother, Dreams. As a reflex action you jump in the shower and try to scrub away all your imperfections. Usually the shower is good to you and the mirror isn ' t as threatening when you get out again. Now that you no longer can tolerate the mirro and probably realize that this is not time to confront the scale you move to you closet where you make the biggest decision of the day, what your going to wear. Automatically you reach for that expensive outfit that took you two months to convice mother to allow you to buy. Then you realize you’ve worn it twice in the last three days so you soon retreat to the old jeans and a sweatshirt. As the aroma of burnt toast reaches your nose it is a quick dash down the stairs to gulp a three minute breakfast. The most important part of the morning routine is yet to come. Make up. Guys usually use this time to finish the homework that they told their parents they had finished at six last night. It is quite a different story for the female sex however. A normally Plain Jane can turn herself into Hollywood Jane in a mere twenty minutes. She mixs, blends and creates a potion that, when applied to her face will make her inner beauty come out and dazzle all who look upon her. Because the rooster has become obsolete the most popular method of awakening in the morning is the two word phrase, wake up, screamed by one of your parents and usually accompanied by the throwing of blunt objects and the use of moisemakers. With all of the censorship committes running around now condeming the use of this word and that you wonder when they are going to get to the two most upsetting owrds in use today. Why are they overlooking them? Why haven ' t they banned WAKE-UP! It takes three alarm clocks to wake Kurt Samuelson. Opening 17 f 4 Not just another night To high schoolers, dances added a bit of zest to an otherwise bleak weekend. They were social gatherings where we forgot about parents, jobs, and the pressures of school (even though most dances were held there). Dances were important, and we put a lot of preparation into them. First off, a big problem was finding a date. Many a night was spent pouring through last year ' s yearbook for an appealing face. And even then, who was to say your choice would want you ? If you found a date you could rest easy for the big night , provided you hoarded all your money until then. One could never guess if your date would suddenly crave a lobster tail or not. So comes the big day. If you were on a committee you got the gym decorated. Then you spent the rest of the day with your friends, and without meaning to, wasted so much time you had to rush to get ready. Or maybe you forgot to pick up flowers and the florist was closed. Nonetheless; your date picked you up, or you picked up your date, parents took pictures by the fireplace, beemed brightly, and loudly repeated the time of curfew three times. The whole ordeal was over in a couple of hours. And then the entire process started over. A new music video oriented dance posed a problem tor Jeremy Foy. Tracy Stombaugh wanted to go. but not with him. Nothing like a little “bubbly” gum before a dance! Christy Anderson, Tonya Chapman, Kelly Fairman. Missy Esparza, and Jenny Taylor arranged center- pieces for the Homecoming dance. i ft O Psst Wanna date? The suave and debonair Eric Schwartly and Eric Sarno use the “ultra-cool meth - Fun doesn’t end at the dance. Tim Black and Kurt od to pick up chicks” for special occasions. Samuelson laugh it up at a post dance gathering. Better safe than sorry. Troy Ellis and his date duck under cover to hide from any stray drizzle. Debbie Posateri adds a few finishing touches before her date arrives. Opening 19 1500 Minutes a week Hanging upside down is an exhilerating way to study for Melissa Seward and Tracy Firlus. No one can learn it for you. How many times have your parents told you that when you ' ve asked to stay home from school because of a shocking development in your favorite soap? We all know they are right, but how much can you learn in school ? We spend 330 minutes during a school day in class. Subtract five minutes a hour for attendance and sitting down, then multiply that number by five to get the number of minutes in a school week. You come out with 1500 minutes or 90,000 seconds. Every second of every minute during that time you r brain is receiving information that is totally new to it. No one can hear, learn, understand, put together, and remember all of that data. That ' s what I ' ve been saying all along. So how come we are required to know everything a teacher says when the tests are handed out ? a student asks. Because no one can learn everything in an hour of class. No one is expected to. This is why studying was invented. The difference between the student who sits in front of you and gets straight A ' s and the one behind you who gets by with C ' s may not be intelligence, but hard work. A student who wants to succeed in school knows that he or she is not done with a lesson when the bell rings. They must start the lesson all over again that night and keep going over it until they understand it. Because we are not able to learn everything a teacher presents to us in class, we must go back over what we missed. In essence, everyone is a teacher. In the same way an athlete must train his body; a student must train his mind. The time spent learning a subject out of school is just as , if not more, important than the time spent learning in school. For in the end, it is important that you know the material, not the other person. And that knowledge comes only through hard work and desire. No one can learn it for you. 20 Opening Having a friend to study with helps the learning process run smoother, as Dave Slivken and Marji Murphy discover. Mr Herrera uses his free period to grade assign¬ ments. Laura Hudson needs a rest before she can continue her research paper. Vicki Thomas. Bonita Boyd, and Nawasa Combs know that coming in after class is a good way to catch up on work. Building muscles by exercising is similar to gain¬ ing knowledge by studying. Opening 21 Friends don’t always go to the same school. Becki Neff and Debbie Posateri enjoy the company of Erin Purcell, home from college. Some people had more unusual friends than others. This stuffed deer introduces us to his pal Tom Gibbons. Everyone has a friend. Who but a Friend would lend you his last dime? Phil Siegert begs from Shannon Keatley and Sonja Motz. Some people had cars, some people had pets, many people had jobs, but everyone had friends. They made your best times, they made your worst times, they helped you out and they got you grounded. A true friend was a most valuable asset. No one else could give you that useful constructive criticsm, and only a true friend would know enough to lie when you needed to hear something good about yourself. Your friends gave you the encouragement to ask out that new girl in Algebra, and your friends sat next to you while you waited for that cute guy to call. And when you came home with a D in Physics, who made you laugh about what happened when they failed ? Friends made us feel wanted, they were a safe spot in our insecure lives. They overlooked our faults because they had ones similar, they were the only people who would truly accept us, no matter what. But while they accepted us, we also had to accept them. When they called us at three a.m. crying, we had to listen. When they got accepted to that great college and we didn ' t, we had to be happy for them. When they got all the dates and all the lucky breaks, we had to forgive them. And when they drug us out until the wee hours, confident that their parents were asleep and didn ' t suspect we ' d snuck out, and their mother called ours and we get grounded for the entire summer while they got off scot free, we still had to be their friend. They were burdenous, true, but then, so were we. But thinking back to these four, short years, would you change a thing ? Because of our own special friends at Rocky, we have a lifetime of memories. 22 Opening The sweethart she is. Laura Hudson decorates a friend’s room, for free! But friendship only goes so far; decides Fred Oelschlaeger when Andy Campbell asks for his last bite of ice cream sandwich. Dan McMillin smiles in disbelief. Opening 23 L •.� The news in review News during the 1986-87 school year was at most dismal. The world was far from peace, stricken with disease, and our local community was ridden with unemployment. Locally, John Deere workers went on strike, and stayed on strike for many months. It caused much pain for these men and their families, they had no money during this time, there was no other work for them to turn to. People were scared, and talk was heard of the plant closing down. Eventually the strike was settled, but in order to settle, the strikers had to negotiate down to not much more pay or benefits than they had before. The fall of 1986 brought about a flooding Mississippi river. Water reached the highest point it had in years. River Drive was closed for weeks, John O’Donnell stadium was incapacitated. Due to the flood wall that had been built on the Illinois side, Illinois remained dry, but the flooding waters caused many problems for Iowa. December brought Christmas dreams, no snow, and Cary Grant to the Adler Theatre. Mr. Grant was scheduled to talk to Quad-Citizens and answer questions from the audience during his one-man show. However, during rehersals, he felt chilled and H very tired . Later that evening, before his performance, he suffered a fatal stroke. The nation was shocked that one of the greatest stars of all time had passed away so suddenly . To upgrade our economy, local community leaders dreamed of more ways to attract tourism. Again our area steamboats were to be the main attraction. Riverboat gambling was considered and approved, and the Quad-City Queen was made available for rent for special occassions. Augustana ' s football team won their fourth straight first place National title. The Chicago Bears fell from their previous Superbowl Championship, possibly due to the loss of Jim McMahon from a shoulder injury. We celebrated the Centennial Anniversary of our Statue of Liberty in a three-day, televised party. Bands, ships and tons of fireworks added to our lady’s birthday. Prior to the gathering, Lee lacocca had formed a committee to strengthen her aging frame, and clean her oxidized copper. Liberace, a pianist known as the most outlandish man in showbusiness died of A.I.D.S, a fatal disease that had recently come to medical attention. A.I.D.S.: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, a disease that wipes out the body ' s natural immunity defenses, left all infected helpless. And unlike cancer, no one ever recovered. President Reagan, winding down his second term, was discovered to be part of the Iranian Arms Scandal. The United States government had been shipping arms to Israel, who in turn would send them to Iran. Iran would pay the U.S., the U.S. would put the money in secret Swiss bank accounts, and eventually send it to Nicaragua, to help the Contras. All this left Reagan unpopular and humiliated, and the people wondered just who it was that ran the country. Oral Roberts, a celebrated televised evangalist stated that God had spoken to him. God had told him that unless people sent him eight million dollars by a certain date in March, he would be struck down by lightening. Nespaper columnists urged people to keep their checkbooks closed, and his religious program was soon yanked . Between overseas war, disease, and unemployment, there seemed little hope for the destiny of man. To pick us up we turned to the movies, television, and song. Bruce Springsteen: Live 1975-1985 found its way to everyone’s Christmas list. It consisted of a five record set and it ran for about $25, but was an absolute must for any Bruce fan. Every Tuesday night at eight o ' clock, every t.v. set was tuned in to Moonlighting; a romantic comedy about a detective team. It’s fast talking, smart witted, punny dialouge between Maddie Hayes (Sybil Shepperd), and David Addison (BruceWillis) brought laughter and sometimes tears as they denied their love for each other. The 1986-87 school year was grey in news of the outside world. But inside the walls of Rocky, the student still achieved great goals in academics, excelled in sports, and contributed their time and energy to the community .The Rocks, as always, were special, and the news didn ' t bother us. We knew we were the leaders of tomorrow. aU’ • TT - 24 Opening The Athletic needs of Nina Plantz and Jack Holtzer almost fifty years ago were quite different from what we require today. Archery as shown here, has long since been forgotten, and in its place has come activities ranging from aerobics to swimming. §p€lti 25 Misleading year It is easy for one to be misled when looking at the Rocks ' varsity football record this past season. The Islander ' s were 3-6 overall, and posted a dismal 1-4 Western Big Six record. However, they did not play as badly as their record might indicate. Of Rocky ' s six defeats, five were decided by a touchdown or less. Give or take a few bad breaks, and their record might have been reversed. Tom Piehl was the team ' s rushing leader with 663 yards. Junior quarterback Fontaine Walker had a brilliant season, completing 29 of 45 passes for 322 yards and an average of 11.1 yards per completion. The defense played superbly. Fred Oelschlaeger had 50 tackles, and teammate Chester Hickman was just behind him with 48. Shawn Leigh led the squad with seven quarterback sacks. With several inexperienced juniors playing regularly, the Islanders somewhat cracked under pressure. Next year, however, those juniors will become experienced seniors. Several brilliant sophomores will be at the varsity level, and perhaps Rocky will get a few breaks and have an outstanding year.

Football 27 Rough season Getting the jump on the other teams helps Rocky stay ahead. The Rocky freshman football squad endured a rough season, as they were winless in seven co ntests. However, the Rocks had several fine individual players. Mike Esparza led the team in rushing with 211 yards. Quarterback Tony Spaulding passed for 385 yards while completing nearly 50 percent of his passes. On defense, Joe Allen led in tackles with 49, and punter Chris Allison averaged 38 yards on his nine kicks. Meanwhile, the sophomores struggled to a 4-5 season, but were 3-2 in Western Big Six play. Their biggest highlight came when Tony Teague returned a kickoff for a touchdown against Springfield Griffin. Offensively, quarterback Mickey Borcherding threw for 654 yards. Jamie Williams led all rushers with 724 yards and averaged almost eight yards a carry. Don White shined on defense with four interceptions. Joe Lawrence recovered six fumbles, and Chris Quinones led the sophomores in tackles with 56. —ss:—c Giving the runner help shows how the Rocks worked as a team. Front row; R Burrell. J. Williams. T.

Through the rainy cold nights when most Ians chose to enjoy the game on the radio, the squads were out in the stadium cheering the guys on. Week night and weekend practices throughout the year created quite a tight schedule for the girls. However, the cheerleaders did make time to provide the basketball players with cookies, decorated locker rooms prior to the games, and made available the traditional hoop the players jumped through. During the Homecoming assembly, a dance routine to Prince’s hot hit KISS” was a well presented and fully enjoyable program. The varsity squad performed that same routine at South Park Mall in a competition with other area high school cheerleaders. The varsity and sophomore cheerleaders who were chosen to cheer for football had the option to remain a cheerleader throughout the basketball season. Another differentiation from this year’s cheerleaders was that a new routine to the Rocky school song was choreographed. The 1986-87 cheerleading squads worked extremely hard to prove they had the talent to make Rocky more proud of the fact that Red is our color.Gold is the other!!

One of their great wins came when both the varsity and frosh soph squads placed second at the Clinton Invitational. The freshmen were led by Ian Frink and Shawn Block. The Super Sophs , as they were all in the top ten of the entire team, included Steve Tanner, Mario Vesey and Matt Helms. The junior stars were led by Lance Riccio, Ted Brunsvold, Chris Green and Ryan Cockerill. The senior leader was Tony Thoensen, the lone four year man on the high school squad.

Coach Boeye was just what returning seniors Anne Fitzsimmons, Heather Williams, Laura Hudson, Susie Snyder, first year senior Shelly Curtis,- sophomores Jenni Bauersfeld and Carrie Shearer needed.

The all-around season added up to more losses than wins, but the girls were able to pull themselves together and shave down the strokes when they really counted. The boys, familiar with Coach Chuck Austin, used his coaching to take them through Sectionals also. The team was strong with seniors Troy Ellis, Dave Martin, Bill Voltz, Kevin Fink, Kurt Samuelson, junior Cary David, and sophomore Brett Williams. Ellis left the team with a fourth place individual finish at the Quincy Invitational with a low 76. The team finished with a 6-5 record, a team finish of fifth place at Quincy, and a fifth place at the Western Big Six, seventh place at the ISHA Regionals, eight place at Pekin, and 16th place at the Sterling Invitational. The Junior Varsity squad ended at 2-7. While neither of the teams came out in a spectacular fashion, it wasn ' t too bad, it was pretty much like any other season; just par for the course.

Although Lance Riccio was put out in the early stages, William Gay and Dennis Vesey (each) went on to capture second place finishes. Both wrestlers, to go with their state medals, received many well deserved team awards. Gay took Most Valuable, Athlete of the Week, State Award, and co-captain of the squad. Vesey was honored with Most Outstanding, Most Pins, Prep Spotlighter, State Award, and co-captain of the squad. The Varsity record ended at eight wins, nine losses, and one tie. Tournament time saw the Grapplers capturing a third at Urbana, two fourths at Sycamore and Regionals, and a ninth at Palatine. Coach Gerber stated, I ' m sorry to lose Lance Riccio to Maryland.

The Floating Rocks lost coaching from Marc Gilliam, but while they missed his company, they adapted well to Gary Ackerson, Fred Fredrichsen, Jim Johnstone and Jim Peterson placing five swimmers and two divers in state finals. The medley relay team consisted of Tyler Greathouse, breaststroke, Kevin Keiffer, backstroke, Rob Narske, freestyle, and Scott Warren doing the butterfly. Mike Kramer in the 100 breaststroke and Kevin Keiffer doing the 100 backstroke came out with their all time best with 10th place listings in the state.

Two new names hang on the wall in the R.l. pool this year. A breaststroke record was broken by Mike Kramer and Christy Anderson in the 100 butterfly. The boys team which consisted of 25 lost four seniors, while the girls team of 19 lost nine seniors this year. With team work every indivdual improved through the year.

Although East Moline had a better free throw percentage, the Rocks still thought they were the better team. The Rocks then started off there Big Six quest by beating Moline. Then the following night they beat Davenport Central. The Rocks seemed to be starting off their season in typical fashion by going 5-0.

Seeming to be back on track the Rocks, for the first time in Duncan Reid ' s coaching career at the Rock, proceeded to lose four in a row. But Coach Duncan Reid wasn’t ready to push the panic button and bounced his Rocks back to 11 straight wins; including the Regional and Sectional titles. Traveling to the Supersectionals for the 2nd straight year, which was a first for a Rock Island team, to play what most fans called the usual Manuel game. The Rocks confidence was high from tip-off to buzzer. They played their hearts out but came up four points short when the clock ticked zero. The Rocks finished their season at 21-7 overall, and 8-2 in the Western Big Six where they shared the title with Quincy. Bill Reid and Tony Ledbetter led the team all year. Don Mentria and Maurice Woods provided great sparks off the bench. Kelan Ritchie dazzled the crowd with all of his tremendous dunks. John Barnes also added to the Rocks offensive attack. Todd Hall played well all season but really came into his own during tournament time. Next years team should be another state contender. They will be a quick Rock Island team, very similar to the 85-86 team. Ray Jackson, James Fisher, and Maurice Woods should prove to be the Nucleus of the 87-88 team. John Barnes senior leadership should pull the Rocks to another winning season.

This team will become great with time, the only thing that held it back this year was its age. Generally, youth is highly esteemed. So, will be the case with the soccer team. The soccer team had a 3-10-1 record this year, but it had a big win over Peoria Woodruff in its first Regional win ever. The only reason the team didn’t finish this year with a good record, was that freshman and sophomores made up the majority of the varsity team and their inexperience took its toll. Their youth will become power in the future however. The Rock Island Soccer Team also had a young coach this year. tx-NFL football great and Rock Island High School football coach, Sonny Franck, came out of retirement to coach the Rocks. In this, his first year ever coaching soccer, he was assisted by Coaches Garcia and McMillan. With their help, Sunny ' s talents as a soccer coach blossomed to their fullest. Everyone truly hopes that Franck will stay on as coach and continue the strong foundation he laid. John Dawson stated, The team is building this year, it will have a lot of returning talent next year. All it needs is public support to become very successful in the future. His words about talent are true, the only players the team expects to lose are senior co-captains John Dawson and Kuan Ma, and Lorenzo Jackson and Duke Firlus. The soccer team had a strong defensive unit this year. It lacked a strong offense because the younger players simply didn ' t have the speed that it takes. Coach Franck, with Mr. McMillan and Garcia ' s help will impress the techniques of good offense upon the Rocks yet. At the awards banquet John Fout, Kuan Ma, Lorenzo Jackson and John Dawson received awards. The rest of the starting varsity team deserves recognition also however. They included Sean McMillan. Bill Hudson, Duke Firlus, Scott Planson, Drew and Kirk Peterson, Romer Vasquez, Rob Narske and Troy Motz. Trying to steal the ball, junior John Fout always put forth his best effort. m Freshman Kirk Peterson teams up with senior Kuan Ma to shut out the opposition.

Highest averages were held by co-captains and individual state qualifiers Georgina Williams and Karen Ziegler with averages of 170. Other members averaged 160 or better. The Junior Varsity ended with a five win and two loss dual meet record. In their only two tournament appearances, the J.V. had first and third place finishes. Out of the past four years Coach Braet has had the privilege of coaching an impressive varsity team. The past four year dual meet record has been 33-8 and ten first places out of eighteen tournament appearances. Within the four years ten girls have consisted of the varsity. Three of the girls were fortunate to go to state all four years. Out of the four years, the bowlers have taken a second and two fifth place finishes along with an unfortunate fourteenth place. From Coach Braet ' s point of view he feels that the girls have accomplished a lot over the four years. He says, It’s hard losing so many seniors but feels that with one senior being my only returning letterman, I ' m sure ready to start all over and build more winning teams.” Kegler co-captains excepted one of many first place trophies for the season. Varsity team members were all smiles before leaving for the state finals. 48 Bowling Looking for better balance The Rock Island Girls ' Gymnastics team were handstands above their opponents.

McDevitt, also served as co-captain of the team along with being recognized as the team’s highest scorer. Senior Chris Dasso was the captain of the gymnastics team. Junior Lena Lee was voted most improved gymnast by her teammates. The Belgium foreign exchange student, Sabine Gehain, practiced with the team, but was not allowed to compete because she had already graduated from her native high school. I ' d like to see our gymnastic team do something in the off season to improve themselves. And I believe next year we will be stronger as far as win loss record, stated Coach Fred Fredrichson.

The girls, coached by Bob Wilson, had a most impressive team. They had a dual and triangular meet record of seven wins and one loss. The lady Rocks earned four 1st place finishes and one 3rd place finish in the five invitationals in which they competed and they took the conference and sectional meets for the 5th time in six years. The girls finished the season on an encouraging note. After qualifying ten girls at the sectional meet, the lady Rocks finished in 8th place at the state meet. Coach John Coolidge ' s boys had an equally impressive year. They had their fourth consecutive undefeated season. Their dual meet record was 5-0. They placed first in four out of their eight invitationals and never finished out of the top six from fields of up to sixteen teams. They followed this outstanding season by winning the Big 6 and sectional titles for the 3rd straight year in a row. Both the girls ' and boys ' track teams had ten qualifiers for the state meet. Celia Bester set a new school record in the 200 meter dash while qualifying for the finals. Chris Coolidge set a new school record in the high jump along with finishing fourth at state.

They’re still winning After losing five of their six varsity players, this years girls ' tennis team came through with a team that surprised the rest of the conference. The girls took fourth at the Western Big Six tournament and wowed everyone with a second place finish at Sectionals. Jessica Mossage qualified for the state tournament in singles while Sonja Motz and Becki Koeppel qualified in doubles. The varsity had an overall record of 7 wins and 5 loses as the junior varsity ended with an 8 wins and 2 loses record. The girls lost two varsity players this year but had a young and talented squad to empower them through another successful season next fall. The boy ' s tennis team was led by juniors Joe Fackel and Jeff Long to a 9 win, 4 loss dual meet record. The team had their best finish at the Love ' s Park Harlem Invitational bringing home the second place trophy. The highest individual finish was by the number one doubles team of Fackel and Long who lost in a three set match in the finals. Upper-class leadership was the key to the teams victorious season. Three seniors and three juniors rounded out the varsity squad. There were 14 years of varsity experience between the top six players. Fackel and Long walked away from the sectional meet with their second straight third place finish. Charles Wallace was the other returning senior on the squad. 52 Tennis Coach Les Sammon jokes around with his 1 and 2 players. Joe Fackel and Jeff Long. Senior Sonja Motz sets up to slice a forehand.

But the hopes never became a reality as the Rocks had a long tough year. Posting an 8-14 record overall and a 3-7 Western Big Six record. It seemed as though the Rocks were always one run short.

HOMEOFTHEROCK5 Baseball 55 Move forward Marty Milefchik gives a little constructive critisism to team¬ mates Kuan Ma and Eric Bertelson. The 1986-1987 Chess Team focused its sights on the I.H.S.A State Championship. The Rock Island Chess Team had a good number of seniors that worked hard for four years. As the season progressed, the Rocks were looking very sharp. They had won almost every tournament they participated in this year. The state team had basically been set. Eric Bertleson, Kuan Ma, and Victor Mata, three four year lettermen, made up the first three boards. The three year lettermen, Lorenzo Jackson and Patti Chen, played boards four and five. Lord Soria, Craig Hullett, and Mike Hutton rounded out the bottom three boards. The Chess Team was the last here at Rocky to win state, back in 1987. Coaches Milton and Strupp have been producing good chess teams here at Rocky for many years. There was certainly no lack of strength in the coaching area. Although it was not evident, the chess team ' s success came from its depth. The competition for top spots was tough because there were over thirty members on the chess team, which appeared to be the largest in the state. The Rock Island team took its long tradition of excellence to state every year and looks for your support in the future years. Patti Chen can see another checkmate coming along. This years chess leaders are: Lord Soria. Sandra Johnson, Patti Chen, Kuan Ma, Victor Mata, Kevin Dennis. Lorenzo Jackson, Mark Moran. Eric Bertel¬ son and Craig Hullet.

But today the room provides more than books, newspapers, magazines and encyclopedias for study aids. A copy machine, micro-film machines, and several personal computers are placed there for convenient student use, because the needs of today’s teen have changed greatly. Academics 57 “So far Rocky has meant some big changes I have had to do a lot more work this year than I ex¬ pected but it has still been a real¬ ly fun year.” J.W. Hass Class of ’90 Omar Rangel is perplexed by the difficult vocabulary words on this poster which hangs in Mrs. Tsagaris’ classroom. Mr Robinson’s biology class anxiously awaits an exciting trip to the lab 58 Freshmen The nightmare is over Most freshman have a very distorted view of what high school is really like. After junior high, the thought of attending the Rock is a very scary one for most of us. Once classes start, however, we found that the adjustments weren’t that difficult to make, of course there were some changes, crammed hallways, and ala carte food lines for example. When you get right to it our freshman year was there to break us in as high school students. For most, it is time for us to adjust to having homework every night, writing essays, struggling over difficult math problems, and doing difficult labs in science classes. Another advantage of high school is the opportunity to learn a foreign language. The most common language for freshman to take is Spanish I. All in all our freshman year was a time to mature and adjust to high school life. Introduction to Social Sciences, a new freshman social studies course gave Jennifer Nies. D.J. John¬ son. Mike McCarthy. Theresa Hood, and Annette Diericks an opportunity to brush up on their map reading skills. Typing I is a beneficial and popular class offered at Rocky Listening to Romeo and Juliet. as interpreted by Mr Oestreich. is always a treat for his 9th grade Advanced English students. 59 Freshmen The second step up The Sopomore year is an important time in our high school life because it means that we have survived our first year at Rocky and we are no longer looked down upon for being the youngest at the school. For most students, the highlight of 10th grade was that first step toward adulthood: Driver ' s Education. We probably thought we knew everything there was to know, until we actually got behind the wheel. Thanks to patient teachers who were strongly buckedled in, we eventually got the hang of it. It seemed our sophomore year was filled with required courses which taught us anything from how to project our voices in Spoken English, to how to give C.P.R. to our desk ' s in Health. For the more advanced students, Algebra II was a necessary challenge that we (somewhat) welcomed. We usually had room in our schedules to take a class that we WANTED to take. Whether we tried our hand at art or writing, we enjoyed ourselves, but we never let up on our seemingly endless struggle to be an upperclassman. Mr Tiejens gets one final prayer in before going out on the road with Loren Claude behind the wheel. “Annie. Annie are you okay?” asks Jeff Pickett. Sophomores “My sophomore year was great! I finally have my driver’s license and I no longer have to call my parents for rides home. I now have no problems finding my way around- Rocky and I know what to expect from my classes. Eric Schwertly Class of ’89 The art rooms at Rocky are cluttered with some interesting articles, so Mike Teague. James Foster and Geoff Hayes think. Diane Cunningham is getting ready to knock the socks off her Spoken English classmates. Algebra II teacher. Mrs. Wehner. explains to Kim Lingafelter how to use exponents.

Cassandra Hud¬ son. and Yolanda Huizar. Mrs. Gende’s drama class is rehearsing for opening night. Finally getting respect Most students felt that the Junior year was the hardest of our secondary education. Suddenly, grades became important as thoughts of college entered our minds. Since we were no longer underclassman, the teachers now expected more from us than ever before. For the advanced students who were ready to accept that challenge, classes like Biology II, Advanced American History , Advanced English, and Modern Introductory Analysis were taken. Courses offered for the slightly less motivated also kept students interested and challenged. The English classes offered a variety of courses to attract every type of interest. Some other typical classes taken might have included improving our acting skills in Drama class, or widening our foreign language vocabulary in the German III class. Whatever the choices were, we welcomed the responsibility of choosing the ones that would be most beneficial. The classes taken during this year geared us toward many possible career opportunities. Along with greater academic difficulty, came the responsibility of a leadership role toward fellow students. No longer little sophomore ' s, we were now looked up to by the underclassmen which gave us an extra sense of maturity. Together with our friends, we looked forward to a hopefully exciting senior year. “Zach Maurus shows Rick Huisman where his knowledge of the German language may come in handy.” Chris Green gets a good laugh out of the stories which Mr. Sias tells to his American History class. “It’s a lot of fun being a junior because all of my friends can drive and we are not stuck any¬ where waiting for parents to pick us up! Classes are a lot harder than last year, but it is nice to be an upper classmen. Jenny Bills Class of ’88 T 64 We made After living through three years of shear humiliation and striving for good grades and no truant offenses, a miracle occured. In the short time span of one summer we became seniors. Senior year, the thriteenth and possibly last year we would ever have to attend school. It was a time to slough off for those who made the best their previous years, and one last shot at a future for those who hadn’t. It was a time to be looked up to by underclassmen, to dominate the halls. it at Last! The halls were now our domain. It was a year to do crazy things, in the next year we would enter the real world of adults. We’d have to say good-bye to our childhood friends, dreams, and memories. Work, college, and worse words such as rent, laundry, and empty bank accounts crowded our brain§. Senior year was our last chance at being teenagers, and we’ll always remember the times we took advantage of it. Looks can be deceiving as Dartanian Hoskins. Fred Drummond. Pat Gordon. Mike Grawe. Robert Wade. Garrett Mueller, Rob Chandler. Duane Lewis and Chad Smith will testify. This new car with only nine miles on it was given to Auto Body after being damaged during shipment. Senior year means it is time to take Consumer Eco¬ nomics, a class that is so much fun it is saved for last. Carl Lampkin. Greg Miller. Mike Willfong and Nikki Sheley radiate sheer joy in Mr. Steven’s class; a class that is more fun than seniors should be allowed to have. Seniors Accounting can be taken any year, but Chris Larson feels Mr. Clark’s teaching will really help her grasp the fundamentals of the real world. Advanced Physics is not the ideal “breeze through” 12th grade subject, but Bruce Gold enjoys the challenge. “My senior year has been inter¬ esting! It will be sad to go be¬ cause I have a lot of memories here, but I am really ready to move on.” Judi Stamper Class of ’87 What a way to start the day! Amy Posateri and Heather Dunsmoor taught swimming in P.E. first period. Seniors 65 Ah Calcalus! That silly brainteasing class. Anne Fitz¬ simmons and Rachel Thomas ponder over Mr. Wood’s discussion. Mythology projects proved to be a rewarding chal¬ lenge. as Ellen Stanley and Victor Mata proudly display their work. Group discussions allow students to get a better understanding of the subject in Mr. Gable’s Psychol¬ ogy class.

A teen has always been able to find himself, or his friends through the great many clubs and groups offered at Rock Island. Here Juanita Potter and Carl Welch read through lines on the same stage that fifty classes have used to put on productions in our own special way. f l ll i llH I S SCIENCE Front Row: S. Blase. T.

This is accredited to President Missy Temple, Vice President Lynda Wilson, secretary Craig Hullett, and Treasure Robin Kahn. The club held its annual fondue party to start off the year, which turned out to be popular as always. Later in the year they had a hypnotist come to Rockys auditorium where he hypnotized several of the Science Club members. Those involved also had the opportunity to do some out of school activities. They went on an archeological dig where they discorvered snail shells and clam shells on site. Many also visited Palmer College of Chiropractic to see the cadavers for an end of the year trip.

How to get interviews, take pictures and write material all for a given date were not easy tasks.

Forty-four seniors met the 3.65 grade point average requirement to make themselves members, while 33 juniors and 34 sophomores also received a 3.65 or above average to become provisional members. The senior group chose Fred Oelschlaeger, Meredith Wright, and Sharon Renneke as their officers. The junior class elected Bridget Budde, Beth McDevitt, and Seema Nazeer as their representatives. All members and provisional members aided in arranging an induction ceremony for families and friends that was held in the school auditorium on April 9th. Not only are all members required to have a 3.65 cummulative grade point average but members are expected to show leadership and service to the school and community. Heidi Pollock.

Homecoming started the year off with Senate in charge of the parade (the sun was shining), the assembly (main attraction; the Jockettes ), the royalty (a new king and queen), the week of events (Senior girls won the tug-of-war), and the mums and buttons (which sold great, thanks Senators!). Further into the year, along with Chess Team, Senate held the Computer Dating Dance, the Hard Rocky Cafe opened for business, and Teacher Appreciation Day came along with an apple and a note on each teachers desk. The Christmas season came and Secret Santas were picked. Houses were tee-peed, lockers were decorated, and gifts were given! (One senator received a gerbil!!!) Everyone had a turn ringing bells for the Salvation Army. Begging for money was fun at K-Mart! The second semester held many more exciting activities including the student exchanges, the Best Chest Contest, and the Senate Blood Drive. Valentine ' s Day brought the sales of carnations followed by Swirl ' 87 and Student Interest Week. Senior Senators. J. Keim, W. Hunter, J. Bajor, B. Nett. S. Curtis. J. Pearson, S. Motz, T.

The Mixed Choir consisted mainly of freshman and sophomores who worked for the first month strictly on learning how to sight read. The Concert Choir included upperclassmen who had learned the basics and could concentrate on tone quality, posture, and expression. Both classes participated in fall and winter concerts, and a spring pops concert. In addition, they traveled to several organized contests to prove their skills. All of these events took place outside of school hours, and attendance was required. Absences resulted in a severe drop in the students grade. Many choir students put in up to seven hours a week outside of class through participation in Harmony Unlimited, Rocky ' s swing choir, and in Madrigal Choir. These two choirs were open to anyone in the concert choir who was willing to audition. Our goal is to let the rest of the school know that we do have fun, because we ' re doing what we like to do, but at the same time, we constantly work hard, commented senior Mary Beth Udy, President of the Concert Choir.

Choir 89 SPEECH TEAM They talk too much The Rocky Speech Team was plagued with talent this year, as a proud Charles Oestriech, team coach, watched two of his team members proceed to state. Kevin Fink, four year team member, placed seventh at the state competition in Radio Speaking and Missy Temple competed in Prose Reading. The main emphasis of Speech Team is in public speaking, acting, and interpretive reading. The team put on a program called Speech Teach and presented it to many of the English classes. The idea of the program was to introduce students to the fun of being a Speech Team member, and showed the end result as the regional team presented a program showing many of the different catagories. Humorous Interpretation was Consuela Johnson’s specialty. Seniors Kevin Fink and Missy Temple ended the season with a trip to state. Dramatic Duet Acting had Beth Miles falling for Dave Slivken.

The fall and winter plays were wonderful, and the spring musical was a special ending for the school year. Come Blow Your Horn , Heaven Can Wait , and Li ' l Abner were all realistically portrayed in Rocky ' s two theaters. The casting was exquisite, and all performances had a life of their own. The Drama Club has had a hard time getting started this year, but they did have more to do than last year ' s group. The club went to a couple of performances at other schools, but none measured up to the great talent at Rocky. DRAMA CLUB The fall play Come Blow Your Horn starred Elisabeth Rich and Jamie Van Hook. Gimme that suitcase! Drama Club 93 Abounding with talent, Meredith Wright sang and played guitar for her audition for the musical. Many people were nervously waiting to be called for their musical audition. Will they make it? C.W.T. Getting a head start Cooperative Work Training, commonly known as C.W.T., teaches students skills for holding a job in the areas of retail, grocery, and maintenance stores. This program helps students develop requisite entry-level skills, attitudes and work habits so they are better prepared to enter today ' s tough job market , stated instructor Don Resler. Resler’s students spend he mornings taking required courses, such as social studies, English and the C.W.T. classroom work of the day. Half is spent on the job. An employer-employee banquet was held in the spring . It brought students and bosses together in a relaxed atmosphere and let the business community know that Rock Island High School appreciates their cooperation in helping students become responsible employees. Jeff Bentley checks with his supervisor Neal Moore, at Illinois Oil Products, Inc. to be sure that he is sending out the correct material. Customers frequently want Crystal Hayes to switch kinds of pop in their cases for them at the 24th street Eagle’s grocery store. Both patients and staff appreciate the special help that Shaundra Moultrie offers at the Rock Island Convalenscent Center. 94 C.W.T. C.W.T.

This information is supplemented with related experiences to provide the participants with greater insights and a broader vision of the academic arena and the world of work. All activities are provided with promoting excellence in performance. A combination of in-school and out of school activities were provided. Trips to Augustana College, St. Ambrose and University of Wisconsin At Madison provided the Scholars with new college related experiences. Other trips to the Chicago museums and the Rock Island District Corps of Engineers added much to the students over all knowledge. Principal ' s Scholars Irom Rocky joined those from other area high schools at Augustana College to learn more about college opportunities.

Office Occupations is a program designed for students interested in preparing for entry-level jobs in the office. Students in this program work to develop marketable skills in typewriting, proofreading, filing, transcription, word processing, handling correspondence, telephone techniques and more. Students attended a half-day of school and a half-day of on the job training, earning wages comparable to other beginners for the services provided. In addition, credit is earned toward a high school diploma. All students of Office Occupations became members of the Office Education Association, a national professional organization for students preparing for careers in the business world. Officers were elected and regular meetings were held. Members have the opportunity of putting their skills to use in competition with other OEA members on the local, state and national level. In the past, Rocky has had serval students go on to compete at the national level.

One of the oldest and most popular Lettermen fundraisers is the annual Casino night. Matt Stern and Beth McDevitt see how much they can cash in from Zach Maurus. Fun — draising Once again, the Lettermen ' s Club dominated the club scene. From sponsoring the Homecoming Dance, to the Super Santa contest, to Casino Night, to Rent-a-Letterman, lettermen raised thousands of dollars to put towards certain needs of the numerous athletic organizations Led by Coach Bill Burrus, president Fred Oelschlaeger, vice-president Andy Campbell, secretary Judi Stamper, and treasurer P.J. Lingard, the friendly group was eager to help the sports and general well-being of the school . The swim team was granted the money to buy new lane markers, the wrestling squad accquired a new scale, and the cross country squad received a video camera. Letterman ' s club is always a fun group with unique, exciting fund raisers that help unite the student body as a whole. And the 50th version of this was no different. Lettermen 103 SKI CLUB S.

The Rock Island High School’s Ski Club didn ' tget a chance to be successful this year with the lack of snow for the season. However, trips were made to Sundown and Snow Star frequently. The people who made it all possible were President, Michelle Maiers; Vice President, Mike Grawe; Secretary, Diane Cunningham; Public Relations, Greg Maiers; and their wonderful sponsor Mr. Benson. The Ski Club participated in helping to sponsor the KOS VOS dance. To earn a more money they passed out flyers for the Davenport Medical Center. The lack of snow prevented a lot of skiing, but it didn’t prevent the fun. In the spring they held a volleyball tournament and pizza partry with other ski clubs from area schools. Rocky ' s pride hasn’t changed too much, although dress and hair styles have gone through a drastic evolutionary process. Elaine Foley and Robert Harris show off the fashion of their era. What will the class of 2037 think of what we wore? Pecple 105 Party for Kevin Fink and Mary Beth Udy had some fun while at a workshop to learn how to organize and run a post-prom party. after prom It took lots of time and even more planning but the post-prom party finally became a reality. Seniors Kevin Fink and Mary Beth Udy came up with the theme, Project CHYLL (Come Help Young Leaders Learn), after attending a weekend workshop in Springfield, IL. At the workshop we learned how to plan such an event, how to get the community as well as the students and parents involved, and have everything be a success, Mary Beth stated. This year the post-prom party was held at the Rock Valley Athletic Club May 16th following the docking of the Quad-City Queen. Students were able to play raquetball, tennis, basketball, participate in Casino Night , and sign the Graffiti wall. Free food was offered all night long. Hopefully this post-prom party will start a tradition at Rock Island High School that will be carried on for a long time, Kevin Fink added. Malissa Adams Christina Anderson Kelly Ashby 7 y . Q .

Both brought culture and friendliness many of us will never forget. Henningsson, a native of Stockholm, Sweden, would like to visit America again, but in some other area, possibly California, Hawaii, or Colorado. Gehain, from Belgium, would also like to visit the West Coast or New York. Both Gehain and Henningsson, would recommen d being a foreign exchange student because one sees many different sights as well as learning a new language and culture. Both Henningsson and Gehain participated in a sport. Gehain, who was involved in gymnastics, stated that; She was not allowed to participate in ' gymnastics for competition because she had already graduated from high school in Belgium. Henningsson was unable to run on a school cross country team in Sweden because they did not have one. Both exchange students claimed that sports are not stressed as much in their countries as they are here. They don’t have practices before and or after school. Their grades were extremely good. Henningsson got straight A’s, and Henningsson and Gehain commented that it is very easy over here to get good grades. Straight A’s is very impressive for someone who just came to our country. Gehain plans to attend the college at Brussels. She would like to major in law. Henningsson, will continue her education since she missed a year from school. She does not get credit for the year here. Sabine Gehain and Anne Henningsson found they had a lot in common to talk about since they both come from Europe.

It was just like any other Thursday night. Dinner with the family, a little bit of Cosby, and some homework. But wait, you ' ve overlooked something. Yes, Y-League, oh how could I forget ? Do I play at seven, or eight, no.maybe it ' s nine!! For a lot of seniors at Rocky this is routine for all Thursday nights, from November through February. For the last three years the Rock Island Family Y has provided fun and excitement with the best of their version of street ball! The league consists of six teams with seven to eight players on each. The league is highly dominated by seniors who take charge as floor generals from tip-off to buzzer. It gives us something to look forward to, commented senior Fred Oelschlaeger. And the Y” definitely does that. Not only for the players but for the friends and girlfriends who come to watch.” So if your Thursday nights next winter are dull and boaring, head down to the Y . You won ' t be disappointed!! The seniors always put on a good show, whether it be B-ball or otherwise. $ m t Craig Flucas Dennis Foster James Foster Christina Fredrickson Paula Fuller Sandi Gabhart Stephen Gaffney Danny Gagnon 114 Seniors f Michael Galex Sharon Galley David Gass Sandra Gay S(lnucL ' r tf S- Gouf, Sabine Gehain Chad Gerard cJJSL c . i k V i iL Thornton Gibbons ' l(97n Melinda Gibson James Gilford Jacinla Gillis Bruce Gold Patrick Gordon Ronald Gore R r td Gt Tammy Goyins Charles Grass OauJk- Michael Grawe tru, Seniors 115 Frederick Grimmett Galo Gutierrez Marc Hagen GoJId ' yY)0A (Z. 1 % 1 1 f s S.

Gina Coin, com¬ pare notes about how Rocky has changed over the past fifty years. A dress code.at Rocky ? Fifty years ago a female student under suspicion of defying the dress code would kneel on the floor, (she was wearing a skirt, pants were not tolerated for girls), she was sent home. The long gone dress code was just one reminicent of Mrs. Vera Witherspoon Bolte, a member of the first graduation class from the present Rocky building. Bolte ' s grandaughter, Gena Coin, a member of the 50th class to graduate from these halls, sits at her desk in a sweat shirt and faded blue jeans. Supposing Gena would skip a few classes one day, she would receive a number of detentions, and she would have to face Mr. Reid. Mrs. Bolte would still get detentions but, surprisingly enough, Mr. Reid would not administer them. In those days the principal had the power to punish, and Mr. Wright, according to Mrs. Bolte, took advantage of that fact. In 1937 and 1938, the Drama Club was the club to be in. This was do to the fact that plays were very popular past-times as every family didn ' t have a TV. Shirley Temple movies were also fun, as were those of the comedy team of Laurel and Hardy. Gone With the Wind made for popular reading, and nothing could have been more exciting than to dance the Jitterbug to a snappy Glen Miller tune. If none of this struck your fancy, you could roller skate, or ice skate during the winter months. If you were a boy, you could go out for football, basketball, track, cross-country, tumbling team, or golf. But if you were a girl, tough luck!, there weren ' t any sports for you yet. Gena and her grandmother have a lot to talk about, with all the changes that have occurred in the past three decades. And hopefully, by the time Gena has a grandaughter of her own, they too can discuss the changes at R.I.H.S.

If ever looking back on the sports pages of the Quad City Times, be sure to look at the short stories above the box scores because there you ' ll see the superb writings of our own Susie Snyder! Susie started working for the Times in November of ' 86 and no she doesn’t empty garbage cans and go out for doughnuts! She does very interesting jobs such as taking scores and writing short stories above the boxes. Susie found out about the job from Mrs. Wahe and went to the Times and applied. She felt she got the job because she was the most qualified and She was a girl!! . She feels that working on the computers at school in the Journalism Department helped her very much in her job, and that for all underclassmen interested in computers and journalism, the R.I.H.S. system is very good. Susie is a very talented writer, and produced many stories for The Crimson Crier. She has also been an editor for the yearbook for two years. Next year she intends to go to Northern and major in journalism, then go on to either creative writing for television or newspaper writing. Sue is a very unique writer and deserves to be recognized for her writing abilities, and the best of luck goes out to her for her future goals! Between her job at the Quad City Times and her duties for the Crimson Crier and Watchtower, Susie Snyder spends a great deal of time at the computer typing stories.

This task has taken many hours of Clayton ' s free time. Giving up my free time was no problem as I enjoyed working with the team and coaches and found it very valuable, stated the student trainer. He attended a special training course at Northern Illinois University set up by Kramer Athletics Company and the university. The course was held during the summer of 1985. The teachers of this course crammed 50 hours of intense work into four long days. Varsity head coach Bill Burrus helped Clayton get signed up for this course.

Rene ' s now modeling for the agency Christl Image. She started modeling after her mom, who is a model encouraged her to try the career. Rene has been modeling for two and a half years and described her experience as a hands on situation where she has to be ready , waiting,and always prepared when called. Modeling can also be a way to find out or bring out something in yourself you never knew you had, Scott stated. It teaches how to have self confidence even if you are not that good, and how to present yourself to the best. Just like any other career you may have your mind set on, modeling requires a lot of pressured time. Rene spends two to three hours three times a week training to be one of the best models. She has learned that in this type of business once you have received the training you are pretty much on your own. Rene often has to contact other agencies herself for jobs because her agency does not always have a job for her. Renee plans to pursue her career at Patricia Stevens in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to be prepared and have a better advantage in the professional modeling field. She adds one thing to anyone who is thinking of being a model, You really have to want to spend the time, effort, and hard work to be well known and successful. Posing on stage is becoming a natural thing for Rene Scott this year.

When you first think of a band, the member that comes to mind is usually the good looking lead singer or the flashy guitar player. Because drummers are set farther back and don ' t have the freedom to move around, they are ofter overshadowed. Because of the passion he puts into, and the energy he gets out of the drums, Jim Gifford is a rare exception. Jim started playing drums because he wanted to perform for people, he hoped through music he could stir peoples emotions and the rythmic beat of a drum seemed like the best way. Thankfully Jim ' s gift has not fallen entirely on the ears of Rocky students. He has received several musical honors including six first place state music solos, and various Augustana honor band awards. All this did not happen overnight for Jim. He has been practicing everyday since the age of five. Although he has played the piano for six or seven years, the drums are the only instrument he uses while playing with the Rocky pep and jazz bands. Like everything else,” Jim said, My parents have always been behind me when it comes to my drums.” The hundreds of dollars in college scholarships he has won are still unable to cover the $3500 his parents have spent on his drum set. Jim went on to say; Although my parents enjoy hearing me play, there is a limit to how much they can withstand; that ' s why they soundproofed our basement. In the future, Jim would like to be a studio musician and envisions himself playing drums on the number one hits of tomorrow. In the more immediate future, Jim will attend Purdue University, where he plans to be a member of their jazz and pep bands.

They were good times, and they were bad times, but they were not easily forgotten. For a select group of seniors, these memories are all the more cherished, these are the last students to complete Kindergarten through sixth grade at Horace Mann Elementary School. Horace Mann was one of the newest schools in District 41, only twenty some years old when it was closed in 1981. It is now used as a center for physically handicapped students, and numerous Park Board programs. It was a very hard concept to understand at that age, remembered senior class president Kevin Fink. All we knew was that they were closing our school for no apparent reason to us. We thought it was very unfair. The school was small enough for the teachers and students to become close, and it very much aided in the learning. Many students still visit their favorite teachers, who have been dispersed throughout the area. Neither have the students strayed too far from each other finding nothing quite the same as their first and closests friends. So here ' s to the last graduates of Horace Mann; the end of an era, now gone but never to be forgotten. Some of the old Horace Mann Gang got together one night after school to recall the good old days before their beloved school closed. Doris Wood from the central office at Rocky was the secretary at old Horace Mann school when this group of seniors were just little elementary kids.
