Results of this change have been resentment from the students and a big cheer from the faculty and administration. Other changes were made in the required school day curriculum and graduation requirements. Freshmen now need 40 credits to graduate as opposed to the former thirty-six. In addition, they must take a required speech class. There is now enriched English for freshmen and sophomores. A full day of school for seniors now means that it is mandatory to stay in school for the full six hours, instead of having an early dismissal. Prior to the opening of school in '85, there was a proposal to have classes meet an additional five minutes, however, there was a waiver on this, and classes were kept at 55 minute periods. The overall opinion is that at Rogers High School the results are top-notch. When such efforts are put into the year by students and faculty, as we have seen, only the best comes from them. Well, I had the information. Now I knew Rogers was where I had to be, but there still were six folders in front of me, and I had to finish my investigation. I had to be sure I came into the room where I knew the folders would be. As I slowly twisted the door knob, it popped open with a click and I crept quietly into the room, flicking on the lights. As the dimness became florescent, I saw seven intriguing manila folders lying invitingly on the table. Slipping into a chair, I carefully picked up one of them titled “The Year in Review”. Eagerly 1 flipped open the cover. The reports-all quite impressive on the yellow legal paper-began: Rogers has undergone many changes and improvements, with positive results. Grades and test results indicate that students have (or have not) been working hard. Students in auto trades have had positive results by getting their cars to run. Results of the big game , the 100m dash, and wrestling meets have all been observed. Defying the rules have had their results-detentions. The outcome of the big question was a date on Friday night. These are all results of everyday happenings, but Rogers has had its share of major events, too. One of the biggest events in Michigan City Area Schools' history was the 1985 teachers ’ strike, resulting this year in pay raises, insurance benefits, and binding arbitration for the teachers. Another significant event was putting up the gates in the RHS parking lot. They were designed to keep A sticker spotted in the Student Store sums up the attitude of Rogers: I’m Proud to be a Raider!

Student Life Divider 5 A JAMA GAME NOT A “SLEEPER” The Pajama Game is a play that revolves around the Sleeptite Pajama Factory. The union workers, led by Prez, are fighting for a 7V2C raise. Complications begin when the new company superintendent, Sid Sorokin, discovers that Mr. Hasler, the boss of the company, is fixing the books and making his own profit. Besides problems at work, a relationship between Sid and Babe Williams (the head of the grievance committee) is put to a halt when their work relationship gets in the way of their own lives. In the end, Mr. Hasler straightens up his act, Sid and Babe resolve their differences, and the union gets its raise. Mabel (Wendy Seifert) pleads with Charlie (Kevin Beckner) to rescue her as Max (Steve Foss) leads her astray. Max (Steve Foss) looks on as Hlenzie (Dave Dabagia) models the latest in SWATCH underwear. 6 Student Life behind Sid (Bob Nauyokas) stares at Babe (Cathy Drzewiecki) as she forgets her next line. The Sleep Tlte Factory workers are caught once again loitering in front of the camera. Gladys (Erica Wagner) giggles as she realizes that Prez’s (Mark Craig) shirt clashes with his eyeshadow. the scenes (Opening scene: We find two members of the Pajama Game cast-center stage- reminiscing about the good times and loud pajamas.) Cathy: “When we first started rehearsals, I didn’t think we could pull off a good production with only six weeks and no scripts. Didn’t it seem pretty sad back then?” Manette: “Yeah, especially when we only had seven seniors. We had such an inexperienced cast, I never thought that some of you could pull it off.’’ Cathy: “But we did! Everything turned out so well-the acting, singing, and the dancing all came together after all of those hours of living, eating, and sleeping in the theatre. I can’t get over how we all became such good friends. Everyone was so close. It was a real bummer to see it all end so soon.’’ Manette: “We had a really great cast this year. Everyone got along-for once. I think this is the first year that’s ever happened. We didn’t have any fights at all!’’ Cathy: “Do you remember all the weird things that happened? Like, when the clock fell off the wall during Friday night’s scene change? Even though it sounded like the roof caved in, I don’t think too many people noticed!” Manette: “I hope they didn’t, but that’s all right. It wasn’t my fault anyway. That was hilarious when Dave Dabagia hit the Vi” thick lamp post with his dart. That was when he was putting on his dart- throwing exhibition for the Sleeptite Pajama Factory picnic. It’s a good thing he didn’t use a real dart when he was throwing it at you!” Cathy: “I know! I must say, this was a great year.” Manette: “I just wish it wasn’t my last.” (Blackout: The curtain falls, but the clock still remains stationary. A loud crash is heard in the background. Well almost!) • Cathy Drzewiecki • Manette Wienhoft Fall Play 7 1985 Homecoming queen. Kelly Churchill, and her escort. Jim Morris. The class of ’88’s truck, was winner of the best- decorated award for the second consecutive year. Huddling to beat the cold and rain? No, just planning how to beat the Chesterton Trojans. DJ Voss and her escort Matt Rlchley, representing Spanish Club, pose by-the best decorated car. 8 Student Life Homecoming ’85: bright floats, dressed- up girls escorted by handsome guys, cheering crowds, flowers and lots of cold rain. Most people involved in homecoming were disappointed in the large quantities of rain that fell. “My spirits fell with the soggy flowers,” said Patty McGuire, senior, referring to the difficulties in decorating cars. Though the weather was dismal, homecoming was still homecoming and that means a lot of excitement and fun for those involved. Preparations for the big night started a week ahead when candidates found out that they were elected to represent various organizations. The students voted once to eliminate all but five candidates, and then once again to elect the queen. Candidates tensely waited until 1:50 Thursday afternoon when Mr. Adams announced the top five. They were: Michelle Colvin, Raiderettes; Karen Bailey, Academic Team; Kelly Churchill, Student Senate; Weslynn Whitlow, Human Relations; and Nancy Church, Cheerleaders. Led by the class of ’89, everyone paraded down Franklin Street, to Ames Field. The candidates bravely paraded through unpleasant weather. The spirits were not low then, while class trucks were trying to out-cheer each other and beaming candidates got out of their cars and were introduced. The soaking crowd waited anxiously through the first two muddy quarters of the game against Chesterton. At halftime, the candidates were introduced once again. Before Mr. Lange gave the awards for best-decorated cars and class truck, he announced that the judging had been done before the cars were rained on — to the relief of all. For the second year in a row, the class of 1988, led by Mr. Peters and Mrs. Ross, won best-decorated truck. The best-decorated car award went to Spanish Club, whose candidate was DJ Voss. The 1929 Model A was decorated creatively with bright plastic yellow and blue flowers, a sombrero, and a pinata. The cumulative tension of all the weeks before was at a peak before the queen was announced. The elected queen was Kelly Churchill, escorted by Jim Morris. She was crowned amid cheering fans by 1984 Homecoming queen, Tammy Allie. The night was wrapped up in the cafeteria where the senior class held a very successful dance, earning over $600. The appearance of students and Rogers’ alumni made the dance a success. Music was provided by T. J. Woodard. One candidate summed up the night well by saying, “They told me homecoming was something I’d never forget, and they sure weren’t kidding.” -Lori Scott Candidates are honored during Homecoming week at a special table in the cafeteria. Vickie Bowen, junior, puts the finishing touches on Christmas decorations in Mrs. Koepke's room. Mr. Fischer displays his talents in the Michigan City Summer Festival Parade Santa Claus, alias Snoopy, is created by senior Rodney Douglas. 10 Student Life A traditional Thanksgiving dinner served at Jennie Savinski’s home. Sophomores Debby Hart and Lynette Perring clown around at the French Club’s Halloween party. Madonna does a good job of describing the general feeling about the holidays when she sings, “Holiday! Celebrate!” Holidays are days when we don’t have to go to school because they are days to remember an important event. Though many of us believe holidays were created for the sole purpose of relieving us from homework, this isn’t true. Each holiday has a special meaning and traditions for celebrating it. Take Halloween, for example. Usually, we don’t get a day off from school for. Halloween, but this year was an exception because it coincided with Teachers’ Institute. On this day, off-beat clothing or costumes are acceptable. What other day of the year would you let anyone see you in hideous makeup and obnoxious clothing, like a dress (on a guy) or a court jester’s costume, complete with pointed hat? Halloween is also great for stocking up on candy from trick-or-treat and scaring each other with totally unbelievable ghost stories, like the one about the mythical (??) “Greenjeans”. The next holiday, one we always get two days off for, is about 27 days down the line, Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving doesn’t require colorful costumes and it’s not as lighthearted (or scary!) as Halloween. It has a serious reason for its commemoration. This holiday is meant to honor and be thankful to our country’s forefathers and the greatest thing they started here — eating well. Yes, this day is dedicated to: 1.) the long, complex preparation of delicacies such as turkey, dressing, and pumpkin pie; 2.) proving that there is, indeed, a glutton hidden in the body of every one of us; and 3.) finding new and creative ways to disguise the turkey leftovers as creations to be eaten for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for many days following the main feast. Thanksgiving has another purpose — to officially usher in “THE” season of the year — Christmas. As the Christmas season begins, we are bombarded with Christmas everything, like Christmas trees, Christmas television shows, Christmas cards and cookies. Magazines love to write about Christmas, using adjectives such as these to describe the holiday season: magical, glittering, glamourous, bountiful, dazzling, and festive. But this time of year can hardly be described like that! What is so festive about trudging through six inches of grey slush to get to a store where you have to wait a minimum of 40 minutes in line, to find that they are out of what you are seeking? When we finally finish buying presents, we must wrap them, which is also a dilemma. Who has ever finished wrapping all their presents without running out of paper? or tape? Granted, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day are great; family, food, religious celebrations, a walk in the snow, and presents. The remaining days of the break are spent in crowded malls, exchanging and returning gifts. When everything is exchanged and the break is over, school is ready to begin again. Almost everyone is wearing something new. This first day back to school is an unofficial holiday: “Christmas Present Exhibiting Day”. These holidays really are special days. They are days to look forward to and remember, for whatever reasons. It always seems like the not-so-good things that happen on holidays, such as the Halloween you confided (to who you thought was your best friend hidden behind a Halloween costume) very private things and then found out it was someone else in the costume, or the Thanksgiving you got severe indigestion and had to be taken to the hospital, or the Christmas you didn’t get a car - fade into a haze and all you remember are the good things. - Lori Scott 11 “Feet� ” of Fashion as shown by (top to bottom) Geoff Hewlett. Kris Wlenke. Janet Bolinger, and Geoff Hewlett again. Vests and polo shirts are the fashion choice for Kim Jesch, Julie Kiser, and Jane Zolvinski. TUDENT STYLE The students at RHS that fill the halls say a great diversity of things about themselves with their clothes. To an outsider, this system may seem quite intricate and confusing. On the contrary, it’s simple to decipher the messages conveyed. You must only know the general classifications students fall into: 1) Nerd-these people are characterized by slightly flaring “no name” pants, a plaid button down shirt with cuffs and collar completely buttoned, clunky tennis shoes, white socks (always), and hair that is a little shaggy and long- coated with a little-more-than- acceptable amounts of oil. Says one typical nerd, “I like to go to the library during lunch, drink sprite, and figure out math problems.” 2) “G” guys-they strut down the halls with an aromatic cloud of Polo enveloping them. They wear tapered dark blue jeans or pleated dress pants, a sweater and shirt with a little flair- maybe a bright stripe, or two, and penny loafers shined to a gloss. The shoes are sometimes so shiny that the guys can use them sneakily as mirrors. 3) Jocks-they wear the same type of clothes-sporty-for all occasions. Whenever you overhear them talking, it’s always on the subject of athletics. “Gym shoes with everything” is their fashion motto. 4) Preppies-clasic is their middle name. Clothing in this category is unisex. A typical outfit is old, loose jeans, 100% Shetland wool crew neck or cardigan sweater (embelished with a member of the animal kingdom just below the left shoulder) turtleneck-polo-or oxford underneath, and worn-out deck shoes with thick wool socks. The girls complete their outfit with a strand of pearls and gold jewelry and the guys wear a nice watch with a leather band. 5) Pre-fabs-hours and hours of work are put in to make this finished product. Their “crowning glory” is permed, moussed, blown-dry hair sprayed and contorted to achieve their desired look. Their make-up is painstakingly applied, although a little heavy on mascara. Cropped jeans, a tank top underneath a v-neck sweater (with a “V” in the back), and flats-NEVER, EVER with socks-compose their uniform. Sometimes, these girls will venture into the realm of fad clothing and will come out wearing something “daring”-a miniskirt, or flowered (“Do these look right”) jeans. -Lori Scott 12 Student Life Kris Wienke wears the rage of 1985- Coca-Cola clothing. Steve Foss satisfies his sudden tendency for a drink of water. Sean Gipson shows off his Air Jordans and favorite university Notre Dame. Fashion 13 Is it “Christine’ ? No, it’s senior Karen Bailey’s 1968 Chevrolet Belair. The license plate on Greg McBride’s 1985 Ford Mustang shows his affinity for having the advantage in tennis. Sisters Jill and Janel Mejean lead the pack into the first day of school. 14 Student Life Riding a motorcycle is an alternative way to get to school. One popular way to show school spirit is by putting stickers on your car, like this one showing who is 1. OW DO YOU GET TO SCHOOL? As the new school year rolls around each fall, kids begin to wonder how they will get to school. For most kids, the bus is their form of transportation, but for the lucky few who own cars or have a neighbor with a car, they are on easy street. First, let’s talk about the bus. The big, yellow bananas that pick up all the kids waiting on the streets. On the first day of school, the busses are usually packed and after that, the kids slowly find different modes of transportation. Few upperclassmen ride the buses. They are usually full of noisy little freshmen. One senior, who rides the bus, said, “I was on the bus in a seat all to myself with my stuff in the other half of the seat. The seats were all filled up, when the bus driver pulled up at the next stop. Ten people got on the bus. As they proceeded down the aisle, I could see a freshman looking to find a seat. The freshman noticed my seat was half empty. Little did he know my books were occupying the rest of my seat. Anyway, he came back to me seat and sat down. He thought he would get me to move my books, but I didn’t. I was too stubborn. Finally, we got to school and the freshman smiled at me. I just gave him a look. After that, he never sat with me again.” Another senior said, ‘‘It’s the pits to ride the bus.” Driving to school is the dream everyone waits for; it really sets you free. You are able to leave for school when you want, instead of when the bus picks you up. You can also cruise, listening to the radio and possibly pick up some breakfast. The cars in the parking lot vary in style and size. All kinds are seen from the 1968 Chevy owned by Karen Bailey to the 1984 Mustang owned by Brenda Novak. Each car features a Rogers Raiders car sticker. Also, there are a variety of different bumper stickers and license plates such as the “Add In” plate on Greg McBride’s car. Kids will always need to get to school. The big decision is will it be cars? Buses? Cars? Buses? -Debby Cook Transportation 15 Q EEMS LIKE OLD TIMES Years from now when you’re old and gray, (about 35) you’ll pull out your faded letter jacket from beneath the mothballs. The spot is still there from the pepperoni and anchovy pizza fight that you had at Nick’s party. Ah-the memories. That jacket was your buddy. It was with you when you screamed at Semi-State and cried when you got back your first term paper. As you look at the ’86 emblem on the sleeve, you realize how you really miss those good old days at Rogers. As you search through your treasure chest of memories, you find your yearbook and the class ring that Mom and Dad scrimped and saved for. Tears start to form as the memories of your high school sweetheart and the class rings you exchanged comes to mind. The pictures in the yearbooks seem a bit faded and everyone looks so outrageous in their out-of-date clothes. You stop and think, “Did I really look like that?’’ 1 can’t believe how everyone has changed!” Many things do change over the years, but there are still those special things that not even time can take away- memories. The friendships shared, the heartbreaks suffered, and all of the spe- cial moments we’ve had will always remain with us. Whether it be in a yearbook, a snapshot, an old letter found in a coat pocket, or in the little keepsakes we hold onto, we all have our own way of keeping the memories alive. The sound of your kids fighting over the last Oreo cookie snaps you out of your daze of recollection. You start to pack up all of your memorabelia, when a surge of youth and nostalgia overcomes you. You slip on the letter jacket and start downstairs. The kids give you an odd look as you start cheering, “Gimme an R!” from the top of the kitchen table and start a chorus of the fight song. Oh well! Who says you’re only young once?! -Cathy Drzewiecki With fingers weighted down, this Rogers student Three ls never . crowd for Scott C|ouse.

PEAKING WITHOUT WORDS If you ask anyone how they communicate, they’d probably say by “talking”. However, has it ever occurred to you that body language dominates vocal communication? Body lingo is often used without consciously realizing it, although these subtle gestures say things much more effectively and may reflect true feelings, no matter how hard you try to disguise them. Body talk doesn’t lie. No matter how energetic you may want to appear, slouching behind the desk, chin in hand, is a dead giveway that you are feeling the effects of the previous weekend. Or, what about when someone catches your eye and you do a “double- take”, making it OBVIOUS that that someone is worth reckoning. Finally, picture this: Friday, noon, you’ve just discovered you have totally blown a test. But you aren’t as concerned with that as you are with your hot date that evening and you are all smiles, and it shows. All of these things are examples of how bodily mannerisms give away true emotions. -Lori Scott Confusion and frustration overtake Cathy Drzewiecki while she is on the phone during the play Pajama Game. 18 Student Life JrOOM OF ONE’S OWN Where do you go to escape the pressures of school, your friends, or family? Sixty-nine percent of the students polled replied that they go into their bedroom and shut the door (the results of the other students polled, just for the record, are: 15% meditate in a Buddhist temple, 12% sit on top of the bandshell in Washington Park, and 4% retreat into that vast waste of oblivion - space). Your room is one of the only rooms in the world that you have total control This picture shows the aftermath of a rushed morning in a typical teenage girl’s room. In contrast to the above picture, this room is neat and orderly. over. Depending on your parents, you may have total control of the decorating or just stand by as the new wallpaper your mom fell in love with goes up. Even if your mom chose the bedspread and carpet, it can still be identified as your room because it is inevitable that you’ll leave your mark there. Whether it’s the photos of friends you have nicely framed and arranged on your bedside table, or the smelly sock that is STILL hanging from your curtain rod, it’s your room. Your Room 19 FADS A Hair-Brained Adventure You ask me why my hair always looks the same? I’ll tell you my tail. Just the other day, I was walking down the street and I saw my friend, Harry. I couldn’t believe it was him because I hairdly recognized him with his new hairdo. I asked him where he had it done. He replied, “Barette-a’s Beauty Parlor on the other part of town. It really looked mahvelous and I told him so. Harry told me that he was studying to become a beautician and had learned so much lately about hair. The only bad thing about the school is my instructor. He is so pomp(ador)ous! Being the smart guy that I am, I saw this meeting as luck because, as my tresses were getting lengthy and unruly, I needed some advice on a new cut and this was free. After asking his opinion, he said, Well, Bob, the wind blown look is really hot. All you need is a little layering and a can of mousse, or, you could opt for short and sleek and get a real buzz job!” This advice sounded wonderful to me. I couldn’t st(r)and to wait to get my hair cut, so I immediately made an appointment. I was so fired up that when I finally went to get it cut, I chickened out. That’s why my hair looks the same, and that’s the long and short of it. •Bob Geoff Hewlett stares off into space trying to remember if he combed his hair this morning. He sports one of the hottest new looks in hair in 1986. Swatch It; They’re Here! This year many people laid to rest the traditional timepieces that have donned their wrists for so many years and made the switch to Swatch. Swatch, which comes from Swiss Watch, has become one of the most popular watches since Timex. They are made of plastic bands which come in colors that range from white to hot pink (non- scented or fruit scented), with faces that are covered with checks, polka- dots, paisley prints, or stripes, instead of numbers; Swatches are easy to spot. What is it that people like so much about Swatches? Some like them just because they’re in style, and others prefer to Swatch themselves because they’re so wild- looking and go with just about any of the new bright colored fashions that are worn today. Another trend in wrist accessories are rubber bracelets, such as those made popular by rock star Madonna. Worn in multiple numbers or alone. these thin, rubber bracelets are in all sorts of colors, but black is most commonly worn. Many girls who wanted to have the complete look added gold or silver bracelets and even rubber rings to match. In any case, whichever style you prefer, the results of the new fashions for wrists were certainly proven to be bright ideas. -Cathy Drzewiecki Button Up Your T-Shirt T-shirts and buttons are fads that exist among teenagers today. You can find buttons and T-shirts almost anywhere. Sometimes they have hidden messages. For example, buttons say; Who knows, who cares, why bother? and state most students’ every thought. T-shirts like reckless describe most students’ ability to drive. Are we having fun yet? is a popular button and also a question that comes up in almost every class. Whatever happened to the plain, white T-shirt? Well, alot of them are now being worn under sweaters and jackets. Some of them are being dyed colors like soft pink, bright yellow, and mint green. They are long and big, short and cut-off. The long and big T-shirts appeal to girls who wear stirrups, and the short cut-off T-shirts appeal to guys who wear sweats and want to show off their many muscles. Besides T-shirts, buttons have become an important accessory to today’s fashions. Most buttons today accompany jackets; anything from letter jackets to winter jackets to jeans jackets. Buttons and T-shirts are worn together, too. People who wear buttons always have silly little grins on their faces. Go up to them and read their button, and you’ll probably find out why! -Lori Grams 20 Off The Record Swatch It! They're Here! Swatches have invaded Lon Grams's life! Coppin' The RAYS Imagine that it’s the middle of February. You have a gorgeous tan, and you didn’t even have to leave Michigan City to get it! Well, to have a beautiful tan in February, all you have to do is visit one of the various tanning booths. What is a tanning booth? Actually, it’s like a bed. You lay on it, and utlraviolet lights above you release UVR’s (ultraviolet rays). The UV rays are divided into two groups: UV-A, which are considered safe rays, and UV-B, which are harmful. Although the booths release more UV-A rays than UV-B rays, it doesn't mean tanning booths are completely safe. However, Consumer Reports editors say that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has been far from strict in regulating the industry. It has been known for quite some time that ultraviolet rays are a risk factor for skin cancer. Dr. Paul Lazar of Northwestern University Medical School has helped prepare a report about other effects of UV-A rays for the American Medical Association. The report states that ultraviolet-A rays penetrate more deeply into the skin then the UV-B rays, producing the wrinkled, leathery look of prematurely aged skin. And UV-A rays may damage the cornea and lense of the eye, while repeated exposure to either UV-A or UV-B may cause cataracts.” If tanning booths are so dangerous, then why do so many people use them? When Kedron Pliske was asked this question she answered, “If I’m going to die, I'm going to die brown.” Some places people visit for a beautiful tan are Edy’s, Camille's and Sunspot. One advantage to this type of tanning is that it doesn’t take long. A half hour on a tanning bed is equivalent to six hours in the sun, so, you can fit a golden tan into even a busy schedule. However, one aspect of artificial tanning is that it is more expensive than getting a tan naturally. If you have the cash and are willing to take chances with any possible side effects, tanning salons are for you! -Amy Russell Twenty Cent Terror I was late for class one day, and as I strolled into class, I noticed something different. Every person in that room had a bulge in his cheek and a long white stick coming out of his mouth. Oh, my god. I about died. Everyone in my class was possessed: it had to be that creatures from outer space had taken over my friends, and now they have these terrible things in their mouths! In my moment of panic I let out a piercing yell. The guy named Marcus, who sits in front of me, pulled it out of his mouth and said, “Is there a problem there Kath? I thought I was going to faint. He actually pulled it out of his mouth! “Wha ... wha .. what is that?” I cried out in horror. “Kath, chill,” he replied, “they are Blow-Pops. You know, candy on the outside and gum on the inside — a two for one treat, and only twenty cents!” You mean you all aren’t possessed? You weren’t taken over by creatures from outer space? You're still Marcus and it’s still 1986?” Yeah. Of course we are — get it together. But you know, my schoolmates have never been the same since. I hear sinister giggles as I walk through the halls. I see gleams in their eyes. I feel strange presences in the rooms. I notice strange scents of sour apple, grape, cherry, and watermelon. I don't know; it's strange. My cheek feels a little bigger. Something isn't quite normal at Rogers High. I wonder . .. -Kathy Mickus Doin’ The CRUISE A He pulls out his comb, slicks back his wind-blown hair, and reaches for the keys. Into the darkness he disappears in the awesome ’66 pea-green El Dorado. With the windows down and the radio blasting, he sets out for “the Cruise . Cruising around the town has become a weekend ritual for most teenagers. Cruising is more than just flashing your new set of wheels: it’s sort of a social quest. During the journey down Franklin Street and around the lake, one tends to find themselves looking for their friends, checking the scenes for “special interests”, or searching for places where things seem to be happening. Why has this become such a popular form of passing time? Most people seem to agree that the lack of night life sends them wheeling out into the streets. One person had the comment, “You can meet interesting and strange people that you wouldn’t see otherwise.” Quite a few guys admit that they like to cruise just so they can try racing other speed racers” (within the 25 m.p.h. of Franklin, of course!) Where everyone cruises in M.C. is usually the same answer. It is the traditional ride down Franklin, the perusal of the lake and Fedder’s Alley, and then the inevitable trek back to McDonald’s for a Coke and some conversation or gossip — take your pick. At the end of the ride, maybe you’ve met some new people, gotten a ticket or two, or perhaps you’ve found yourself right back where you started. In any case, cruising is part of the culture we're building — hopefully toward the road to tomorrow and beyond. -Cathy Drzewiecki Georjia Biederstadt’s red hot RX-7 lies in wait m the school lot so she can DO THE CRUISE .

Mrowka St. Peter's Catholic Church Concord, New Hampshire On January 28, 1986, a disaster took place that touched us all. It was supposed to be an ordinary shuttle liftoff, but it wasn’t. Just one and a half minutes after the liftoff, the shuttle burst into flames. It was the first inflight tragedy in NASA’s history. There were seven astronauts aboard the shuttle; shuttle commander Francis Scobee, pilot Michael Smith, Judith Resmk, Ronald McNair. Ellison Onizuka, and Gregory Jarvis. But what made this flight special was that it carried the first civilian astronaut, a teacher, Christa McAullife. She greeted this opportunity with open arms. Christa knew there were risks involved, but that did not stop her. Her colleagues say that if she were given another chance, she would go up even after the tragedy. Christa represented the best of her profession. We should not forget this tragedy, but learn from it and move ahead. -Scott Boland hands almost a flop Attack On April 14, 1986, President Reagan ordered an air assault on several Lybian terrorist centers. Reagan ordered the air strike with the help of Great Britain. The U.S. launched their attack from military bases in the United Kingdom. The main reason for the assault was that the president cited “irrefutable’’ evidence that Libya was to blame for terrorist attacks against Americans. The Pentagon’s super- secret National Security Agency Results supplied the information. According to a poll by Time Magazine, 71 percent of the U.S. citizens approved of the U.S. Military action against Libya, and 56 percent of the people thought the attack would help stop terrorist attacks on Americans. This attack has proven to terrorist organizations that the U.S. isn't going to sit around and watch its citizens being abused by terrorists. -Scott Boland It’s going to be a flop! That is what most people said about Hands Across America. But it wasn't. It was a success! On May 25, 1986, a chain of an estimated six million people joined hand-in-hand at 2 p.m. central time from Los Angeles to New York, stretching 4,152 miles. The line was to raise funds for fighting homelessness and hunger in the U.S. Although most people thought you had to pay to join the line, that was not the case. But most did pay and received certain items for their contributions such as pins, posters, t-shirts, etc. Hands Across America was the project of Ken Kragen with the help of Pete Rose, Bill Cosby, Lili Tomlin, Kenny Rogers, and other celebrities. But, it was not only the celebrities who put it together, it was many people who were important to the project as well. Michigan City was lucky enough to have the line run through it. The chain went down Highway 20 where many many residents joined in. It was a day Michigan City and America will probably never forget. There were gaps in certain parts of the country, but, according to Time Magazine, New York had people lined up nine people deep. Hand Across America was important. It showed we could do something about the poor in our nation. Time Magazine quoted organizer Ken Kragen as saying, I don’t want to look back in five years and say, ‘Gee, remember when we stood in line?’ I want to look back and say that was when everybody got together and decided once and for all to do something about hunger and homelessness. Hands Across America took only thirteen minutes, but hopefully the results were worth it. -Amy Russell The tragic Shuttle explosion is shown in a picture taken from a television screen.

They gave 118 pints of blood to the American Red Cross Bloodmobile. The blood drive was headed up by Assistant Principal Gene Alber, who has given many gallons of blood himself. One- hundred and forty-seven people signed up to give blood, and 126 people actually gave from Rogers. In order to donate blood you had to be at least 17 years old. Mr. Alber was very pleased with the outcome of the drive. The community also had a good response, and Rogers was given much coverage by the local news media. There was an article in the South Bend Tribune and a letter commending Rogers students and faculty appeared in The News Dispatch along with a news article covering the drive. Alber was so pleased with the outcome of the blood drive, he plans to have another drive around Christmas of 1986. -Scott Boland.

Stress CTDCCC AND MORE STRESS You oversleep. Maybe you’ll just stay home today. Forget it! You can't. You have a chemistry test and the make up test is always harder than the original. Well, you miss the bus and have to walk five miles in sub-zero weather, of course, to school. When you arrive, you realize the geometry proofs you slaved over the night before are at home, and what’s worse, your best friend is mad at you because you forgot them, and now she can’t copy. You think the day can’t get any worse; but it does! And it’s not even Monday. You get to chemistry and find the test is cancelled. After school there are team cuts. Guess who’s cut? You are, of course! When you get home, Mom informs you that Saturday night is Aunt Edith's family dinner and if you don’t go, you may never get to see the phone, T.V., or stereo for the rest of your life. Feeling down, you call your best friend to make amends, and also to find out if “you know who” likes you. She informs you in a polite way, “You know who” thinks you're dirt. You decide the best thing to do is remove yourself from society. It seems like most of the time this is a typical day for us. This is better known as stress, but being able to cope with stress may help you to manage your problems. Take these helpful hints from other classmates on how to deal with stress.

He struggles to open his heavy eyelids. He squints at the clock; it is 6:00 a.m. Suddenly, he realizes that today is one of the 52 days of the year he dreads most. Today is Monday. He searches for the one thing in the world that will get him through this long, dreaded day; his How to Manage Mondays: A Survival Guide . This guide is a lifesaver for anyone who hates Mondays. STEP 1. Stay at home and be a vegetable. Mondays are dreary, blah days when anything that could possibly go wrong, does. The solution to this is to stay home and be devoid of all human function. Do a mindless task like watch TV, sit there in a zombie-like state, and hope nobody takes you for dead. This should get you through Monday quite painlessly. STEP 2. Change the Mondays on your calendar. Grab the nearest calendar and take each Monday and give it a new name. Any name will do, just as long as it does not sound like Monday. There is only one downfall to this step; no one will ever know what you're talking about. Don’t worry though, because you’ll know, and that’s all that counts. STEP 3. Plaster a smile on your face. It doesn’t take much to do this. It takes a minimum of strength and only a few facial muscles. Once you do work up the corners of your mouth, you should notice that everything seems brighter and cheerier. But then, come on, this is Monday! STEP 4. Give it up. Mondays will never change. They will be here forever, 52 times a year, century after century, millennium after millennium, so, why fight it? The best thing to do is forget that it’s Monday, and it won’t feel like it. As for our guy in the beginning of the story, he chose STEP 1. He's going to be a vegetable today. He’s going to stay under those warm, toasty covers and sleep a blissful sleep. That’s where we all should be — snoozing away in dreamland, without a care in the world. It's Monday. I hate Mondays. -Kathy Mickus 24 Off The Record TWINS Rogers Does A Double Double Take As you scope the halls searching for your friends, you run across Judy. No, maybe it’s Joanne. You begin to wonder, “Should I say, ‘Hi, Judy!' and embarrass myself if I'm wrong, or just walk up to her like I know who she is?” As Judy approaches you, and sees the unassured look on your face, she says to herself, “Oh God, I hope he doesn’t ask me who I am, or yell 'Hey twin’ or ‘Hey Red’!” These things sometimes happen when you come across twins like Judy and Joanne Holland. From their point of view, there are advantages and disadvantages to being a twin. Some advantages are getting a lot of attention and getting compared to one another in their appearance. Some disadvantages are when people are always getting them mixed up, and when one guy likes Joanne and he also likes Judy and vice-versa. Joanne and Judy have some unique qualities like sensing each other’s pain. One incident was when Joanne went to the each and Judy stayed home to lie in the sun. Suddenly, Judy burst into tears, not knowing why. Later, she found out that Joanne had almost been in a car accident. Another unique experience they had was when they played each other in eighth grade by going to one another’s class and fooling the teachers. They are also mirror twins. For example. Joanne is right-handed and Judy is left-handed. However, they share things like clothes, make-up. shoes and sometimes even guys they’ve dated. Another set of twins is Dana and Dusty Barton. Dana thinks there are some advantages to being a twin, like doing favors for one another. Dana has a few classes with Dusty, so she can help him with his homework. Dusty says, “It’s easier to talk to Dana because she’s the same age.'' Dana and Dusty get along most of the time, but they don’t feel special. They treat their other brothers and sisters the same as they treat each other. Dana added. “I don’t feel that special because we don’t look alike.” Twins Bill and Paul Hartill seem to get really irritated when people always ask, “Which one are you? Bill says, People don’t know who you are. Sometimes they come up to me and talk to me like I'm Paul and I don’t even know them. When Bill and Paul were in junior high, the principal made a mistake by calling Bill to the office instead of Paul. Of course, Bill did not know what was going on when the principal asked him to put his hands on the desk for a sample of a swat from his wooden board. “But there are advantages. says Paul, “You can bail each other out or put the blame on the other. Bill seems to think it's fun to play jokes; like the time he tried to fool Mrs. Callaway by going to Paul's French class. Bill and Paul get along most of the time, but Bill says he has more disagreements with Paul than with his other brothers. He feels like he's in competition with Paul-one is always trying to be better than the other. Although Bill and Paul do look alike, and people do get them mixed up, there is one way to tell them apart-look at their eyes. -Lori Grams Some ol facers' twms we Joanne and Jody Hdtend.

Dr. Chumley (Bob Nauyokas) thinks the holes in Harvey's hat are just another fad 26 Student Life “Harvey,” this year’s spring play, “hopped” right along and ran very smooth- ly. “Harvey” is a comedy about a man, El- wood P. Dowd, who sees a 6’1 W' imaginary rabbit, Harvey. Elwood’s sister, Veta, wants Elwood committed, but instead, she ends up being institutionalized. After a while, the sanitarium realizes that they have made a mistake and Veta is released. However, a strange turn of events saves Elwood from being committed. The cast worked as a team and after sev- en weeks, of practice, they pulled it all to- gether and gave a very enjoyable perfor- mance. It was the last show at Rogers for the cast’s seniors: Andy Conru, Dave Dabagia, Leanne Mark, Bob Nauyokas, and Manette Wienhoft. It was sad to see such talent leave, however, the show must go on and there were a few underclassmen in the show. On opening night, the audience’s response was one of the best Rogers has seen for the spring play in a long time. Not only did the cast put on a good show, but there were also the people backstage who contributed a great deal to “Harvey’s” success. The stage crew and tech crew, did excellent jobs for the scenery, lighting, and sound. Ms. Heeg found all of the costumes and did makeup. Mr. Peters supervised the stagecrew and put in many extra hours working on the set. The student directors were Tara O’Brien, Chris Moss and Kathy Richter, who worked the lightboard and spent time after school helping the actors with lines. Mr. Troyer directed the show, did the advertising and put up with the cast. Everyone who saw “Harvey” knew the hard work that the cast and crew did. -Amy Russell Elwood (Dave Dabagia) waits for Harvey's advice before ordering magazine subscriptions.

Magic between the different acts was provided by the talented freshman Mike Bootcheck. For the third year in a row. Ron Riley delighted the audience with his saxophone playing. 28 Student Life Mrs. Slater playing “the Queen” in The Breakfast Club? Miss Benz singing as Madonna? Mr. McMillan as Rambo? Where did these wild ideas come from? They were part of Mr. Looten’s repertoire as emcee for Bits-nPieces, the annual student talent show. The actual performances weren’t quite as wild as Mr. Lootens’s pictured, but they were, nonetheless, entertaining. There was piano, electric guitar, and saxophone playing, a band, a skit, magic tricks, rapping, but most of all, there was singing. The many excellent performances by seniors showed that Rogers will be losing a lot of talent to graduation. Shea Roper and Brian Nietzel, who have both participated in Bits-n-Pieces each of their years at Rogers, did their rendition of “Separate Lives”. Also, Nietzel and Byron Hurt, another active participant in Bits-n- Pieces for four years, sang Ebony and Ivory”. Another talented senior, Ron Riley, teamed up with junior, Steve Vinson to play a saxophone duet. The talent wasn’t all from seniors, though. Kim Withrow and Jenny Zummak, both sophomores, did an original skit, The Prom Date”, Kevin Beckner, freshman, sang “God Bless the U.S.A.” in celebration of the Statue of Liberty’s 100th birthday, and Mike Bootcheck, freshman, showed the audience his magical qualities by performing a few “slight of hand” tricks. So, although many talented seniors are leaving, there are many talented underclassmen to take their place and the tradition of quality of Bits-n-Pieces will go on. -Lori Scott Mr. Lootens carries on his 14 year tradition of emceeing for Bits-NPieces with his entertaining jokes and comments.

They called it “The Magic Kingdom”. It was a wonderful place which had a special power within it. It transformed girls into lovely ladies and boys into handsome gentlemen. Happiness was in the air for it smelled as sweet as a rose. Diamonds of joy shined throughout the palace. Every breath of this magical air brought a twinkle to an eye, a smile to a face, and a kiss to a cheek. The magic begins when a boy first lays eyes on the girl of his dreams with whom he wants to spend that special evening in the “Magic Kingdom.” When he feels as brave as a knight, he asks her if he can escort her into that enchanting world. She accepts and the search for a fairy tale gown begins. After wading through pools of department stores and bridal shops, she carefully selects the perfect dress. Next is a tux to match. After making flower and dinner arrangements, the couple takes the steps on their journey through a very special and magical night. Gazing into each other’s eyes, the prince and princess dine by candlelight. Boarding their horse and carriage, they anxiously await their arrival at the castle of dreams and excitement. Every moment is precious, for it only lasts one night. As they enter the “Magic Kingdom,” they fantasize about things far better than the real world has to offer. They escape the real world and venture into a land of their own; a land where there are no ' worries or pressures, just love. It all ends at the stroke of twelve, however. Then, it’s on to another fantasy in the “Enchanted Islands.” The land of beautiful flowers and waterfalls is created by our parents. It is a place to kick off your shoes and have a great time! If you haven’t guessed by now, this is the prom. That wonderful, magical, special fantasyland is prepared for months in advance. It’s that one night of high school that you’ll never forget. •Lori Grams Seniors Patty McGuire and John Harrison grab some energy boosters before hitting the dance floor The sugar display of the Magic Kingdom adds a sweet touch to the refreshment table. K — Prom 31 Graduation: The End Result Graduation. Just the sound of the word makes you long to have that diploma in your greedy little palms. For your class, the Class of 1986, the longing is finally fulfilled. After waiting through the whole school year, suffering through term papers, choosing colleges, and deciding the fate of your life, you at last receive your sacred caps and gowns. Counting down to the last minute. May 28 finally arrives and your moment is here. Marching into the gym, along with your fellow graduates, brings tears to the eyes of the moms and dads and other loved ones witnessing the event. Emotions are running wild. Listening to the moving speeches, not only by the class president, but by the three valedictorians and salutatorian, brings to mind all the memories of the friendships, classes, teachers and special moments that will be missed. Heading up the aisle, the anxiety sets in. Your name is announced and at last-the yearning is gone. There’s the diploma clutched within your tight grip. After making your way back to your seat and having mom and dad snap thirty pictures of you, you check your diploma to make sure everything is kosher. Yes- it’s your name and it is signed. You did it. You are now free. Oh no. Here comes the tears. The class president directs the graduates as the tassels are turned and the crowd applauds. The Alma Mater begins and you look around at your fellow graduates. Teary-eyed and smiling, the Class of ’86 files out in the procession. This is it. Your last moment together as a whole group is coming to a close. Insecurity sets in. But wait- here comes all your buddies to comfort you with a hug and you feel much happier. No more time for tears. Now it’s time to celebrate! - Cathy Drzewiecki Donna Deutscher eagerly accepts her diploma from Mr. Zeek with a smile of joy.

School Board member Phyllis Patterson addresses the graduates on their achievements. Graduation 33 The “Academics” folder contains all the reasons I’m in school. It’s the product of the vast erudite knowledge including math, science, social studies, English, arts, music and industrial arts. Many results occurred because of the hard work and determination of the students. The art classes added their own spice of life to the Rogers halls by painting the stairways, cafeteria walls, and restroom entrances with multi-colored graphic designs and lettering. Rogers had a dramatic change in the Driver’s Education course; it was dropped. Skyrocketing insurance costs would have raised the fee of the course to $400 per student, so the administration decided to discontinue it. The Yearbook and Catalyst had their results of hundreds of hours of dedication- a yearbook that will be a record book for years to come, and a newspaper that told of events as they occurred. Products of the science classes were seen by the elementary school students. Rogers students prepared experiments and demonstrated the experiments for wide- eyed youngsters to see. Another type of result of the efforts put into academics was seen by students who achieved 4.0 grade points. Mr. Adams awarded these top students free passes to any Rogers event. Rogers students had a stand-out year once again in 85-86, showing that everyone came out ahead in whatever they did, and these were the “Products of Academics”. 34 Academics Academics Divide; Exchanging smiles, sophomores Michelle Breitzka and Cindy Wolfe discuss topics for their next book report In the library.

Don’t take a study hall just to fill up your schedule, enroll in one of the many intriguing elective courses offered in the Rogers English curriculum. Many of the literature classes are especially interesting. One can learn how our country’s heritage was affected by its authors in American Literature. Myth and Legend is designed primarily for college- bound students who want to understand the ancient tales and heroes. They learn of the roots of modern literature and culture. If you like mystery and science fiction, Suspense and Speculation is for you. Biblical Literature offers an acquaintance with the Old Testament’s literature, not as theology. Students will discover in this course the overwhelming influence this great book has had upon western tradition. There are some beneficial writing courses offered also. Research and Expository is designed to instruct students in different types of expository writing with emphasis on essays and research papers. In Techniques of Writing, the above average writer can improve his or her writing by closely analyzing the writer’s craft with its processes and techniques. Both of these classes are geared for college-bound students. Young writers have the opportunity to express their creativity and individuality through essays, short stories, and poems in Creative Writing. Journalism, though not as popular as some classes, is a fascinating course where various branches of the media are examined. The class of 1989 and every class following are now required to have eight semesters of English to graduate. Never fear though, English can be fun! There are many classes offered that can be both beneficial and enjoyable. Talk to your counselor today and discover the wonderful world of English! -Brian Nietzel Jackie McMillon takes notes in her Freshman English class. English Sad Changes This year Rogers suf- fered the loss of one of it’s most respected educators, Mr. Lonzo. No part of the school felt the loss more than the Social Studies de- partment and a very hard working teacher, Mr. Ko- venz, took over Mr. Lon- zo’s classes. Mr. Lenard was named department chairman. Mr. Lenard best summed up his new posi- tion by saying, “It will be a challenge to follow in Mr. Lonzo’s footsteps.” It will also be the last year for Mr. Lootens who retired and will be greatly missed. Some of the things ac- complished by the depart- ment were that Mr. Len- ard took a group to Indi- ana University Northwest for a Social Studies semi- nar. There was also the an- nual Rogers Bowl. The teams that participated did very well. Especially, the team made up of Mike Bell, Brain Richards and Andy Conru who won first place. The Social Studies de- partment went through a very trying time. But they ended with top results. -Amy Russell -Andrew Knouse Rogers Bowl winners Andy Conru, Brian Richards, and Mike Bell tell there opponents “good bowl Mr. Lenard hands Andy Conru the social studies award at Senior Banquet.

' 38 Academics , LOOTENS LEAVES This was the last year Mr. Bernard Lootens would be teaching U.S. and World History at Rog- ers. Before teaching at Rogers, he taught fourth grade and junior high. Mr. Lootens liked fourth grade because “they could put on their own boots.” He then taught at Elston, and finished his last fifteen years teaching at Rogers. Now he will teach part time at Purdue North Cen- tral. Mr. Lootens has been involved in many things besides teaching here at Rogers, but the one thing he will probably be most remembered for is emcee- ing Bits-N-Pieces. Besides seeing a good show, we could hear Mr. Lootens tell us his jokes and his ideas for new movies and T.V. shows. Being in one of Mr. Loo- tens’s classes is a great ex- perience. When the year is over you know that you have learned a great deal. Besides being a great class to learn in, you also feel very close to him. He will tell you stories of his Navy and Army days and of his “football career.” After hearing these stories you can’t help laughing; they are very enjoyable and a nice way to take a break from the old routine. Mr. Lootens will be missed. For those who had him for a teacher under- stand what I am saying. For those who didn’t you missed having a wonderful teacher and a great friend. Mr. Lootens enjoyed the students and teaching. He said, “Looking back on teaching, it never paid much, but it was a lot bet- ter than having to work for a living.” Mr. Lootens, thank you for everything. • Amy Russell 39 Why A Foreign Language? Many people wonder, “What good taking a foreign language is?” Well, besides getting you into a college; you can impress people with your tremendous vocabulary, travel to different countries and somewhat understand what’s going on, or just talk in front of your little brother without him understanding a thing you say. Besides the normal Spanish, French, and German classes, a new language was offered this year Latin. Latin can expand your English vocabulary and would be a great class to take if you’re going into the field of medicine or science. This year, fifteen German students from Bavaria came to Michigan City for three weeks. They were hosted by Rogers and Elston students who will travel to and stay in Germany for four weeks this summer. The German students attended classes, met with the mayor, and took plenty of trips to Chicago, along with partying American style. Taking a foreign language is a great experience; all of those verbs to conjugate, new words to learn, and selling candy and donuts to every unsuspecting passerby. But better yet, ou learn about a new culture and new people. -Manette Wienhoft Peeping from behind a Spanish book.

However, for about fifteen students at Rogers, it is a responsibility. Work begins in early September and goes well into the summer. The only reward anyone receives is the pride from their work. They pour their souls into the book. Then a few months later, they see their efforts paid off with a well organized yearbook with their names on it. A set of two pages is called a layout. As you glance over this layout, think of the work that goes into this and every layout. The story must be written grammatically and literally correct, as well as be interesting and understandable to everyone. Then, the pictures must be sized, placed, and arranged on the page. However, this isn’t the only work. The editors must coordinate each page in a section in the book. They must also incorporate a theme into the book. Photographers must take thousands of pictures. Of these, less than one third are actually used. Also, the artists work very hard to accent the feel of the layout. This year the yearbook was a showplace of results. The staff had more experience than those of past years. Most of the staff had either been on the staff previously or had attended a journalism workshop. This experience gave them the power of flexibility and creativity. It also helped to produce a top quality yearbook. Sections came together easily and everything in the book fell into place. A great yearbook was the result of a top quality staff. RYB 43 Editor Jim Morris and Dave Dabagia become so happy when deadlines are met. they get carried away.

Bob Sikorski puts the finishing touches on the latest issue before it goes to press Although meeting deadlines can bring some people down, the Catalyst staffers just grin and bear it. Being the editor gives Jim Morris many responsibilities like fixing the word processor. CATALYST The Catalyst went through many changes. Students who returned from the previous year had to adapt in two ways. First of all, they had to get used to a new advisor, Mrs. Basquez. Also, due to a teachers’ strike the year before, students weren’t properly prepared to produce a newspaper every month. When the 1985-86 school year started, some weren’t willing to work. As a result, seven people were fired, six quit, and two just disappeared and were never heard from again. Although the Catalyst “ran into’’ a few problems, as editor Jim Morris can vouch for, they also had many exciting moments. “I’ve really enjoyed the creative flair on the feature page,’’ said Mrs. Basquez. The feature page was revolutionized into a piece of art. It’s creative flair was truly shown with such interesting stories as the “R.H.S. Enquirer’’, the “Black Panther’’ story, and the “Famous Faces’’ layout. The favorite feature of the staff members was the Halloween page. It featured the inside scoop on some of the famous Halloween legends. Some of these were the “Mr. Greenjeans’’ tale, hookman’s row and the haunted mansion. The staff had a frightening time investigating these. -Dan Rajsic Catalyst 45 If you cannot read this headline, shorthand is for you. The people who take shorthand are generally training for secretarial or office work. However, shorthand is not just for people who want to be secretaries. People on the college prep level can take it so they can learn a quicker way to take notes during lecture classes in college. You could also use it for a part time job at college. Are you missing a class you may need for the rest of your life? In school many of your papers are required to be typed, including any term papers. Typing is Dave Dabagia wears down his pencil eraser from correcting his mistakes. Barry Nowatske tries his luck at time writings also a necessary skill for many occupations. For instance, if you are interested in computers, you need to be familiar with the typing keyboard. One of the typing courses offered at Rogers should be able to meet your needs. College typing is offered as a one semester course for students on the college prep level. For people on the business curriculum, two levels of typing are offered: typing I and typing II. If you are on the general curriculum, there is a one year class offered, personal typing. -Andrew Knouse 46 Shorthand, Typing FUNKENMULCH In the land of nested for-next loops, there dwell the creatures known as the computer programmers. These programmers were enslaved by the ruthless and evil Funk and Schlegelmilch. Chained to terminals for days on end, Funk and Schlegelmilch (together called Jester Funkenmulch) forced the programmers to solve problems of a very complex nature. This made their power over the land of nested for- next loops grow. The power grew so much that their fingers became swollen and yellow from the green monitors and the blue sun which circled the planet. From their fat yellow fingers they could shoot arcs of pure electricity to shock the programmers. This angered the programmers so they began to train armies. First they sent out knights, but they were defeated by the glow of monitors. Because, as everyone knows, the sun always shines on T.V. and monitors. Next, squires were sent, but a Read-Data statement read a squire and it was finished. The only people left for the programmers to send were pages. Jester Funkenmulch had never before fought creatures like this. They loaded their matrices and arrays and left on the nearest fortran. The moral of this story: Let your pages do the walking thru the yellow fingers. -Dan Rajsic Computers 47 WHAT A BARGAIN With extreme intensity and determination, she finally solves her accounting assignment, after re-reworking it for what seems to be the five-hundred and thirteenth time. This scene is very familiar to most students in the business classes here at Rogers. Many students sacrifice fingernails, blurred vision, and sound minds just so they can learn how to balance books, work office machines, and enter correct programs. What makes these people go through all this? The fact that all their hard work pays off in the experience and knowledge needed for careers in the business field. Jobs in the secretarial, marketing, clerical, accounting, data processing, or word processing fields can be trained for by starting out in these high school courses. The Word Processing Lab, a three hour class which just started last year, gives its students experience in word processing in surroundings much like those in a real office. Another way for students to obtain experience in the business field is by on- the-job training. Work- study programs, such as OEA and DECA, are available so that a person can get actual working experience and earn money at the same time, which not too many students seem to mind. So even though the business world may seem a little rough now and then, don’t despair. The results of the hard work are certainly worth it. -Cathy Drzewiecki Balancing the books.

Growing Pains The next time you send your sweetheart a carnation or happen to be pulling the weeds out of Mom’s flower garden, take time out to think of the green-thumbed students in Horticulture. Miss Donaldson teaches a basic Horticulture class and an advanced Horticulture II class. In these courses, the students learn about the structure of plants and study the different types of trees and shrubs. This includes spending weekends outdoors, hunting for leaves for the required collections. Corsages are also furnished by the Horticulture classes for the Homecoming candidates and their escorts. Another part of the Horticultural program is the Horticulture Team. This team competes against other schools in written exams which cover the fundamentals of Horticulture. Perhaps the most beneficial and profitable part of Horticulture is the Horticulture Club. The club produced good results through fund raisers such as the everpopular carnation sales and selling Christmas pointsettias. The money from these sales went to club activities, donations to the city park, and to random charities. This year the club also hopes to visit local nursing homes and give corsages to the residents. -Cathy Drzewiecki 49 Mr. Rose explains to the physics class how to determine the velocity of his lecture going in one ear and out the other.

Our science classes try to give a general understanding of the world around us and how to use science to better our lives. Rogers offers science in five different areas. These include biology, chemistry, physics, physical, and general sciences. Biology is the study of life. Biology I covers the basics from the beginning of life. Biology II covers systems and how they function in humans. They conduct many experiments to learn more about nature. They have labs using microscopes, dissecting animals, and doing many other practiced labs such as taking your blood pressure. They begin the year with plant and insect collections. This gets the students to notice nature around them. Chemistry is the study of elements, compounds, and mixtures. Students begin by learning the periodic table. They learn about the atomic power, ionization power, and electromotive series of the atoms. Once the students have mastered this, they begin to learn how chemicals combine to form compounds. They begin experiments to see these reactions in process. As the year continues, they learn how to tell which elements are found in unknown mixtures. Physics is the study of matter and energy. It deals with topics such as motion, force, energy, heat, light, sound, nuclear reactions, and atomic structure. The class does experiments with waves, ripple tanks, friction, and electricity. Physical and general sciences are blends of the sciences to cover more areas in different sciences. There is a science class for every person’s interests at Rogers. This year, one of our science teachers, Mr. Hultgren, was commended for his teaching expertise. This was recognized by the American Chemical Society. He received the 1985 Presidential Award for Excellence in Science and Mathematics Teaching. This ranks him as one of the top 10 science and mathematics teachers in the nation. Rogers is very proud to have Mr. Hultgren as one of its faculty. -Dan Raj sic Following his teaching philosophy. Mr. Hultgren speaks softly and carries a big measuring stick. This conscientious group of students is carefully studying the more delicate aspects of chemical effects on adolescent minds. Science 51 y = (x-h)2 + k Most students take math as a required subject for a major or a minor. But not that many students take math for a class if they don’t need it. There are two new teachers in the math department. Miss Jane Carey and Mr. Jim Funk. There are many math classes offered at Rogers. If you are not very good in math you could take basic math or pre- algebra. But if you do well in math, you could take algebra or geometry; and if you’re real good you could take Algebra II or trigonometry. Junior Todd Barton said,“Why do we need letters in geometry, because I wouldn’t use letters when I figure out my taxes.’’ But Todd learned that the letters are there to help you.

Here, students are trained to work at jobs in industries, factories, automobile repair shops, and computer repair services. Students can learn a variety of different skills. Some of these include construction, electronics, automobile body repair, metal shop, small engine repair, drafting, etc. The industrial arts department differs from the other departments in that after graduation, students on a vocational curriculum can go out into the work force and get a job. In other areas, a college degree is required. Another service that this department provides is in getting a job. Students are shown the proper way to fill out a job application, prepare for an interview, and the proper way to act during an interview. After all, experience won’t help if you cannot present yourself for an interview. 54 Academics Working with lathes is an everyday occurance in metal shop Overhauling engines is Just one thing Darren Bush does in small engine repair.

The first impression might have been that an easy course had been added to the curriculum for the last grading period. The preschool is actually a culmination of things learned in the child development classes. According to Mrs. Jane Frietag, the preschool is meant to be a lab for students to observe preschool-age children.” Sophomore Rod Spencer explained, It’s our favorite part of the whole year. The little kids are cute, but we also learn how the little children behave and then we learn how to cope with them before we become parents ourselves.” The students taking the child development course participate on three levels: teaching a unit to the children, evaluating the preschoolers activities, and taking part in TIME housekeeping chores. Fourteen children attended the three week preschool. They had daily activities that included arts and crafts, a musical activity, story time and physical activities. Themes were incorporated to add variety and interest. For instance, there was a Bunny Day on which the kids made bunny hats and visited Mr. Lange’s animals. Another day was devoted to clowns. The children snacked on clown cake and junior Doris Brown dressed up as a clown. Other themes included Mousercise Day and Robot Day”, on which Mr. Boehner and his robots visited with the preschoolers. Although the classes did the coordinating and actual presentation of the preschool, many other segments of Rogers helped. The wood construction class built a playhouse for the children, and the P.E. dept, provided them with a Rodney Spencer and Mrs. Frietag spend some play time with their preschoolers at the Rogers Playschool. The Playschool is sponsored and run by the Child Development classes. balance beam and mats for their physical activities. Two small meals were given to the preschoolers each day. Since help is needed in readying the food, Mrs. Mary Bass’s food classes pitched in here. Mrs. Frietag credited three of her students with the decorations for the preschool. Chris Sparks was in charge of the decorations for the room while Kelly Hutchinson and Diane Bishop made a pihata for the preschoolers to enjoy on their last day of school. 56 Off The Record Doug’s Diner For Singing And Supping Simply Delights Two for this evening? Right this way. please. Can I take your coat? No? Well, then have a seat and we’ll be serving you momentarily. This may sound like a weekend visit to Hacienda, but this was the greeting all the guests of Doug's Diner received. On Friday, May 2nd, the Rogers’ Minnesingers presented the grand opening of “Doug’s Diner as their spring show. It was a IV2 hour musical presentation divided by a dessert intermission. The first half was a balanced blend of choreographed jazz numbers and mellow pop songs. The first act was finalized with a light show and dance version of the Pointer Sisters' smash hit Neutron Dance. After everyone had been served coffee, punch, and dessert, the second portion of the performance started off with the guys 'dishing out' There is Nothing Like a Dame” from South Pacific. The rest of the show was filled with familiar songs from popular Broadway musicals such as Man of LaMancha, The Sound of Music, and The Wiz. At the end of the show. Mr. Trueax, the head cook, introduced all of the Doug's Diner employees, and then they closed the show with a touching rendition of What I Did for Love,” from the play Chorus Line. All the guests were thanked for coming, invited to return again the following year, and advised to leave their tips at the corner of their tables! -Brian Nietzel For Mr. and Mrs. Adams's dinine pleasure at Douf's Diner .

X 1 0 PI PC IRTUr «TIES BIG QUESTION BOGGLES BRAIN The big multiple choice test we have all been dreading has only one question, but has over 11,000 answers. That is mind boggling for those who take this test. The problem with this test is that there isn’t an absolute right or wrong answer, and this answer is different for every person. Who are they? What is the big question? They are college bound students trying to decide which college is best for them. There are many ways to narrow down this figure. A few major influences are your parents and their incomes. For most of you, their influence is law because they are the ones who foot the bill. They may heavily hint that they want you to attend their alma mater, or they may put restrictions on decision making. For instance, they may want you to stay close to home or even in state. The amount of money your parents are willing to pay is an important factor. College is expensive, in general, but this expense varies largely, so if you set up a budget, just like when you are Christmas shopping and you only have so much money to spend, you can eliminate quite a few schools this way. Scholarships also influence many students as to where to go. If a school grants you a scholarship, whether it is for athletics, academics, or whatever, you would probably give that school another look. On the other hand, if you especially want to attend a school that is very expensive, and you don’t get any scholarships, that school will probably be eliminated. Scholarships can also be obtained from various organizations such as the Elks. Purdue North Central and Ball State University offer scholarships to deserving students that plan on attending their school. Many area P.T.A.’s also offer scholarships. Perhaps the most common scholarship given is from the Michigan City Scholarship Foundation, Inc. Students are loaned from $5.00 to $1,000.00 and only have to pay back one half of the Industrial Arts Options The industrial arts classes at Rogers are geared toward one main purpose. That is to prepare students for a job after high school. In each course, there are a series of classes which train the student for a job in this area. First, there is a one hour course which covers the basics. Then, there is a three hour vocational class which covers detailed study on the subject of the course. After this, the student may wish to be placed in a co-op class. This is a work-study program which gives the student work experience in his field, while still in high school. After graduation, the future of the student is up to him and his employer. He could be promoted to full time employment, or could go on to a technical school. In this way. the student may receive an associates or two year degree and still keep his job Mr. Sadenwater, head of the industrial arts department, says that he sees the gap between the preparation of the industrial arts student and the college-bound student narrowing. Many jobs are now requiring a degree. Some of these are engineer, automotive technician, and draftsman. -Dan Rajsic amount loaned. Financial aid is an alternate way to get money. Students must fill out the form, with the aid of their parents' tax forms, before the March 1 deadline. Federal and state money is given in the form of grants, loans, and or a work-study program. It is confusing to choose a college, but when you have, you get a sense of accomplishment. Although once you decide on your college, you must choose classes. There are, depending upon the place, thousands of courses offered. -Lori Scott Speeches Not To (Air) Force Last October, representatives from all five branches of the armed forces- the Army. Army Reserve. Air Force, Navy, and Marines came to Rogers High School. Over eight hundred students experienced several speeches and films that displayed and discussed the various opportunities the armed forces have to offer students after graduation. The students witnessed safety and weapons demonstrations, were shown different types of military equipment, were able to view jeeps, trucks, and a hospital mobile unit. Their programs were not efforts to recruit, but only to inform the students of their future possibilities. They plan to come back in the future with even more spectacular demonstrations and informative programs. -Brian Nietzel Rambo Rich'' Newenhouse checks out the latest in military weaponry Off The Record 57 58 Academics The print that Tara Boyd, freshman, is making was later used to make linoleum prints.

Artists Create Colorful Year Art classes have interesting, colorful projects going on all year long. In Art 1 this year, one of the major projects was a paper mache’ mask with African designs painted on. The 2D art classes worked on acrylic paintings, some of which are hanging in the halls, linoleum prints and painting on the walls. Sculpture and jewelry- making were some of the projects of the 3D art class. Around school this year, the art classes have been very active. Apart from their usual curriculum of projects, they've undertaken the task of decorating the school. This idea started six or seven years ago when Mrs. Ross asked to paint designs on the walls and she was refused. Later, Superintendant Zeek saw the professional painting done in Pine School and liked it. Once again, Mrs. Ross asked to paint, and this time it was approved. It all started in the cafeteria with a painting that was designed by Julie Houck, a senior. This year 2D art classes took on the task of painting a stairwell and the “Guys” and “Gals” on the bathrooms. Aaron Wozniak, senior, designed this motif and also the K.

Home Economics classes may seem easy to those on the outside, but things aren’t always as easy as they seem. A lot of students at Rogers think that people who take Home Ec. classes are just trying to pass with an easy A. But cooking, sewing, caring for children, and working out finances is certainly not easy. Do you ever remember walking to lunch and getting a whiff of fresh baked cookies? It’s most likely from the foods classes and not the cafeteria kitchen. Students take this class to improve their cooking, enjoy the eating, and of course, have the pleasure of scouring dishes when they’re finished. Did you ever want to make your own fashions or have that one-of-a-kind shirt? Well, in sewing, students learn to read and cut out patterns, as well as make their own clothes. Sewing is a great way to expand your wardrobe and cut down on costs, too. Other Home Ec. classes offered are Adult Living, where students can plan a wedding, Child Development, where one can learn to care for children, and Consumer Education, a class in which students learn home financing. Home Economics Classes may not be easy, but they’re perfect for learning skills that can be used for a lifetime. -Manette Wienhoft Lela Simmons checks the recipe as Jody Harrington does the mixing.

Physical education is a required course which focuses on fitness on an individual basis. The sports they play in PE are tennis, swimming, track, conditioning, and weightlifting, to name a few. These sports can be played later in life with only a few people. For those students who are especially interested in PE, there is advanced PE. This class is more detailed and they do activities that weren’t focused on in the regular PE class. The requirements for this class are. a previous year of PE, a “B” average in that year, and the teacher’s recommendation. So, if you’re interested in PE, this class is for you. Another required class associated with PE, is Health and Safety. Mr. Schlegelmilch, the department head, believes the most important topics they discuss are reproduction and venereal disease. He thinks these are important subjects because parents don’t talk about these subjects at home. Mr. Schlegelmilch thinks when kids don’t get this information at home, they get it from the streets. And what they learn off the streets is mostly wrong. The health and safety book discusses these topics well and the students find it interesting and informative. -Scott Boland Kristine Wagner's mind wanders wher she is supposed to be studying her Health and Safety.

This is one example of the questions that most people people find impossible, but are second nature to Academic Team members. The RATs (Rogers Academic Team members) included juniors John Wabshall Wabshall and Todd Jones, and seniors Van Buren, Mike Bell, Jim Edwards, and Andy Conru. They had eight meets in 1986, competing twice against Valparaiso, Chesterton, Elston, and Wheeler. They are asked various questions at the meets over subjects including mathematics, science, history and current events. They completed a flawless season record of 9-0 and were rarely ever challenged. They once defeated Wheeler by 200 points, and the only times the final scores were close were when all the team members weren’t present. With Jones and Wabshall returning, and many other bright underclassmen on their way, one can expect another dominating season for the ’86-’87 Academic Team. If you haven’t already, you should plan to attend one of the meets; it’s fun action. Just try not to get too frustrated — an academic meet might show you how much you really don’t know! -Brian Nietzel 64 Academics J.E.T.S. Success Is No Surprise Once again, Rogers was well represented at the Junior Engineering Technical Society (JETS) test this year, having nine Rogers students participating. The test was given at Purdue- North Calumet College on February 18, 1986. The test has seven different categories: biology-represented by Todd Jones, chemistry- Andy Conru, computers- John Harrison, English- Jennifer Menke and Mike Bell, graphics-Keith Heilman, math-Jim Edwards and Bob Sikorski, and physics- John Wabshall. Each of the nine students competed in more than one category, but these were their original placings because they were the divisions that the individuals were expected to excel in most highly. After these bright individuals’ scores were calculated and combined, the Rogers team placed fifth out of sixteen teams, with their total composite score being only about three percentage points out of first place. The three standouts for the test were Keith Heilman and Mike Bell in graphics, who teamed together to place first, and Andy Conru, finishing second in chemistry; but all of them finished in the top ten scores in the respective divisions. Well done, students; not surprising, but well done. -Brian Nietzel The Rogers' J.E.T.S. team takes time out for a relaxed pose as Keith Heilman (his hand and feet only visible) proclaims what he thinks of his team. Major Turnout For Math Team The Math Team at Rogers is really not a team, but a group of exceptional math students who want to extend their involvement in mathematics beyond school. March and April were popular months in ’86 for contests, when several Rogers’ students competed in several different math, computer, and calculator contests held at various schools and colleges throughout the state, such as St. Mary’s College, Indiana University-Gary, Purdue Calumet-Hammond, Chesterton High School, and Purdue North Calumet. Individuals could place and receive awards at some of the tournaments and some contests had honors for team scores. The students who participated in pre tests and competitions were Pat Abram, Mike Bell, Andy Conru, Jim Edwards, Sue Furness, Samantha Hayes, Wilbert Hinton, Angie LaRocco, Anne Latchford, Marcus Lee, Tammy Miller, Brian Nietzel, Tia Pearson, Bob Sikorski, Jenelle Switalski, Kim Withrow, and Shelia Young. These students upheld the long Rogers tradition of placing well individually and as a team in the competitions, and they seemed to have fun doing it. -Brian Nietzel Jets Math Teams 65 RHS HONORS STUDENTS TOP TEN: First Row: Shelia Young, Patti McGuire.

Sports Divider 69 As They Cross The Line: X-COUNTRY SUFFERS THROUGH AN INJURED SEASON The Rogers Cross Country team looked like it was going to have a good year at the start of the ’85 season, coming on strong against Westville and New Prairie in their opening meet. However, they hit a wall when they came up against 1 ranked Valparaiso in the second meet and found it difficult to come up with many more wins throughout the rest of the season, ending with a 4- 11 record. The other two wins they had were strong though, defeating Marquette 19 to 42, and Gary Wirt 17 to 42 (low score wins). Coach Bruce Fischer attributed part of the problem to losing two of his strongest runners to injuries. Mike Bell was injured during the first meet, which kept him out for a number of meets. Also, number-one runner Mike Schroeder was hurt about half of the season. The Cross Country season started August 11, 1985. A large number of students turned out for the team, including one girl. However, the squad was cut down to 11. The managers were senior Brian Richards and sophomore Roger Kobos. The co-captains of the team were senior Andy Conru and sophomore Mike Schroeder. Mike Schroeder was also the team's Most Valuable Player. The Runnin’ Raider Award, which goes to the most improved runner, went to sophomore Brad Vaughan. Next season looks to be very promising because the MVP and Most Improved are both returning. Hopefully, next year the team’s record will improve, even with the loss of five seniors. -Scott Boland Mark Bardusk gets mentally prepared for the big race The lead runners start to spread out as they near the end of the race. 70 Cross Country Mr. Jaroll gives the runners last minute instructions before the start of the race CROSS COUNTRY MCR OPP Westville 19 45 New Prairie 25 33 Valparaiso 43 19 Kouts 34 24 Hammond Morton 35 25 Hobart 38 23 Merrillville 34 24 Marquette 19 42 S.B.

Some key factors played important roles in making it a defeated season. One player stated that the biggest problem for the team was the lack of unity amongst the players. He commented, “Although there were outstanding individuals, they just couldn’t get together and play as a whole.’’ The second problem the team faced was playing against some of the toughest teams in the area. Hobart, which was considered Roger’s toughest opponent, finished fourth in the state. Valparaiso and Merrillville also proved to be strong rivals against the Raiders. Cold and rainy weather contributed to the low points of the season. That was proven during the homecoming game, in which the team ended up with a 12-7 loss against Chesterton. The only victory the Raiders had was against South Bend St. Joe, defeating them by one touchdown. Senior Mike Drennan said, “After we won the second game of the season, we thought we would start doing better. Then morale dropped as we were losing the rest of our games. It made the season seem very long. We would score in the first half of a game, but after halftime, the players didn’t really work together. We knew in the second half of the game that we were beat,’’ Mike also commented. The following trophy winners were voted for by their teammates: offensive lineman, Rob Shaffer; offensive back, Harry Thompkins; defensive back, Jack Gibson; defensive lineman, Mike Hester; and the Raider Award, Dino Paholski. The senior team captains for this season were: quarterback Cary Brinkman, Ryan Fly, Jeff Gibson, Mike Hester, and Barry Nowatzke. -D. J. Voss V W+JP 'M 72 Sports J L b Row 1 Pal Troy. Ryan Ry.

Lisa Kniola follows through a drive LADY GOLFERS With a young team of one freshman, four sophomores, one junior, and one senior, the odds were against the Rogers girls golf team having a good season. However, the only low point came when Rogers met Elston for the second time, being defeated by one stroke. Overall, the team was just two strokes from a perfect record for the season, maintaining its seven year record of finishing in the top ten of the state tournament. The team finished with a second place in sectionals, second in the regionals, and ninth at the state level. With an overall opinion about the season, coach George Hultgren commented, “I was pleased with this year’s team effort. They worked as a team most of the time and I’m enthusiastic about the prospects and a genuine effort to be a real team and not individuals.” He added, ‘‘The key to the success is parental backing and the tradition of Roger’s winning. They never go into any match that they don’t know they are going to win.

Outstanding tenth grade swimmer, Anne Latchford led the group, ending up seventh in state. She was also nominated the Most Valuable Player. Sophomore Sue Wozniak was in the top six in the 500 yard freestyle competition. The only senior, Patty McGuire, placed in the top six in the Duneland Conference and sectionals in the 50 yard freestyle and 100 yard breaststroke. Freshman Jill Jokantas was voted the Most Improved. Divers Angie LaRocco and Angie Wineland both had excellent seasons. Since only a handful of girls placed during conference and sectionals, Coach Mel Kovenz commented, “We need more balance in scoring by the whole team.’’ Another problem was the loss of distance freestyler, Jenny Petoskey, who suffered a knee injury early in the season. “Although the team was young and unexperienced, they learned alot and showed much promise. Growth and strength will come with time and maturity,” Coach Kovenz said. “Finally,” the coach added, “Patience, pride, and determination will certainly lead to the improvement for the future of this group of sophomores.” -D.

Four of last year’s seven varsity players had graduated, leaving a group of talented, eager players, with minimal varsity experience. In fact, only one player, senior Greg McBride, consistently played varsity last year in the 1 doubles spot. Mr. John Jones, the team’s coach, was pleased with the team’s overall performance and effort, saying, “The team achieved as much as they could have with the talent they had.” Throughout the season the team used two different lineups. The one used at the beginning of the season consisted of freshman John Remmel, senior Ron Hinton, and junior Bob Morton playing the three singles spots ( 1, 2, and 3, respectively). Seniors Greg McBride and Brian Nietzel made up the 1 doubles team, nd juniors Rick Hughes and Kevin Toole filled the 2 doubles spot. This lineup produced many exciting individual matches but not many team wins. At mid- season the coach decided to shuffle the lineup. After staging some challenge matches, Mr. Jones produced a lineup which proved to be more successful. The team’s three seniors played in the singles positions: Brian Nietzel ( 1), Greg McBride ( 2), and Ron Hinton ( 3). John Remmel and Kevin Toole teamed together to make an undefeated 1 doubles team, beating such monster teams as LaPorte, Hobart, and Valparaiso. The two compiled a 6-0 record while playing together in the last half of the season. Toole was named MVP, accumulating the winningest overall record of 9-4. McBride was named senior captain and Nietzel received the Raider Award. Though this team just had a sub .500 record (5-7), positive attitudes and strong wills to win made this team a group of winners. With aggressive determination etched on his face.

However, that didn’t happen. In fact, the girls started poorly. “I think part of it was my fault because at first I put them in the wrong spots,” Jensen commented. After a mid-season change of positions, the team picked up speed and again was a strong force in the area. Since the team began doing well again, Jensen stated, “I was really disappointed when we didn’t pull it out in the sectionals. Part of it had to do with the officiating.” One of the individual efforts was the consistency of Debby Cook with her serving and hitting. Also, Julie Kiser, the setter, ran everything smoothly. Senior Shelly Sitar contributed with her strong back row play and her overwhelming serve. Jane Zolvinski kept volleys alive with her terrific digging ability. In order to continue having a strong volleyball team, Coach Jensen said, “The most IMPORTANT thing is that the girls continue training in the summer. They should use weights, condition, and of course, practice their skills.” -DJ Voss Row 1: Nancy Burroughs. Judy Zarazee. Jeanna Linton. Tammy Van Slyke, and Liz Kildreth. Row 2: Coach Dan Jensen.

They posted victories against New Prairie, Marquette, and Highland in their first three games. Then they beat Elkhart Central and Chesterton before the Holiday Tournament, which started the club’s mid- season slump. In the tourney, they lost the first game to Valpo, and then lost to LaPorte in the consolation game. The Raiders went on after the tourney and defeated South Bend Riley and South Bend Washington, before losing to East Chicago Roosevelt in the final seconds. That loss seemed to spark the ball club. The Raiders beat the rest of their regular season opponents, including rivals such as Valpo, LaPorte, and Elston. They finished the regular season with an impressive victory over South Bend Clay to finish the season with a 17-3 record. After the regular season ended, the team got ready for the sectionals. They beat Marquette and New Prairie in the opening round, and faced LaPorte in the finals. Laporte played a hard fought game, but the Raiders won it anyway. That victory moved them into the regionals to play Valpo. The Raiders beat Valpo soundly and advanced into the regional finals. They beat Mishawaka in the finals and advanced to the semi-state for the third straight year. In the morning session, the Raiders crushed Concord, 108-82. They met Marion, last year’s state champ in the finals. Marion broke the Raider’s 16 game winning streak, 83-82. Marion then went on to become the state champs for the second year in a row. The team was led by 6-3 forward Keith Gailes and 6-0 forward Mike Lemons. They averaged 22.3 and 14.2 points per game. Gailes, Lemons, and Keir Rogers were all on the first team all-area. Gailes was also on the AP all-state team. Rogers averaged 10.3 ppg. Malcolm Reed and Paul Drake started at the guard position and averaged 9.8 and 9.4 ppg. Reed made the all-area third team and Drake got an honorable mention. The team ended the season with a 23-4 record and ended the regular season with a terrific rating of 3 in the state. -Scott Boland Varsity Basketball Team: Row 1 Mgr Tim Biggs. mgr Mike Luce. mgr Bruin Richard .

They were coached by Rick Commers, who is also the assistant varsity coach. The team was led by junior Phil Taylor, who played mostly on the varsity squad by the end of the season. Sophomore Sean Gipson and freshman Todd Palombizio also made significant contributions for the JV squad. They ended the season with an impressive 17 3 record. The freshman team also proved that Raider basketball has a promising future. Coach Hood led the team to an undefeated 13-0 season. This time the number 13 proved to be lucky rather than unlucky!

For the girls, this was an abnormal season. They not only had one head coach, but two. They started out with Dan Jensen as the head coach but midway through the season John Jones became the new head coach. Coach Jones had previously coached the girls’ basketball team. He coached the 1978-’79 girls team which was the first girls team to go to semi-state. Also, he was an assistant coach for a few years. He took this year’s team to the championship game at regionals. The team lost there by one point to North Judson, 52-51. The Lady Raiders returned all of last year’s starters and looked forward to the season. A good effort was put forth during the season and towards the end, the unity of the team was very strong. As the tourney came around, the hopes were flying high. The only problem came in the regional championship. This year’s squad leader was Erika Brooks. She averaged 17 points a game and was named the MVP. Also, she took the honor of being named an All Conference Player. Debby Cook was the captain and received the Raider Award. Although the team faced a tragedy halfway through the season, the “Blue Machine’’ finished on top with a winning season and a sectional victory. Helping her team increase its lead.

These children make up the Sullair Piranhas swim team. Since 1970, the Sullair Corporation has sponsored and provided the Piranhas with contributions and excellent outdoor facilities for summer training. The team members range from five year olds to college students, with many Elston and Rogers students being present, or former, Piranhas. Dave Phelps. Rick Sawicki. and Dotty Linsemeyer are past state champions who were involved with the Piranhas swim team. Also, seniors Mark Zummak, Patty McGuire, and sophomore star Anne Latchford have been recent state qualifiers who began culturing their natural talents long before high school on the Sullair team. This swim program is a great way for pre-high school students to gain experience and compete. This program is very beneficial to the high schools, also, for most all of the talented youngsters begin competing on the high school team as freshmen, already having swimming experience. The Piranhas who are involved in U.S.S. (United States Swimming), compete year round in dual meets and invitationals against similar swim clubs. The better individuals compete in the Junior Olympics. Rogers swim coaches Mel Kovenz and Jim Voss lead their team members to many individual and team placings in every meet. Though this program provides Rogers with many talented competitors, it also exposes the youth to competition, teaches discipline and team work, and develops body, mind, spirit, and social development. This swim club certainly leaves a beneficial lasting impression on its participants. -Brian Nietzel V Patty McGuire, of the Suflair Pirahnas and the Rogers' swim team, demonstrates the Mark Zummak began his swimming career with the Pirahnas when he was 11 years old. breaststroke.

Against all odds, they slowly climbed to the top of the softball ladder. In the final game, the girls' dream ended at number two. The girls can be proud for playing their best, and for one girl, the Cinderella carriage didn't turn into a pumpkin. Senior Brenda Novak was honored as Indiana's best exemplary prep softball player by receiving the IHSAA Executive Committee's Mental Attitude Award. The basis of the award is mental attitude, leadership, and scholastic and athletic performance. Brenda more than proved she deserved this. She cancelled a Spanish Club trip to Mexico so she could continue on in the tournament. She was the leading hitter for Rogers in the season and had six out of 11 hits at bat in the finals at state. Brenda was second in runs scored and driven in on the team. To top it all off. Brenda was a co-Valedictorian for her class. But Brenda doesn’t take all the credit. As quoted by Tim Costello of the News-Dispatch, she says, “Just that our team got us here, because you can't get it without your team getting down here, and it was the whole team, all year. That's the kind of attitude that it takes to be Indiana's best mental attitude recipient, and Brenda has it. Once again, Rogers proves it's the best in Indiana. We can be proud of the team and Brenda. The results are in. and Brenda's tops. -Kathy Mickus Some Members Don’t Just “Warm The Bench” While most of us have our eyes on the star quarterback, or are watching yet another awesome slam dunk by the weekly MVP hoopster, there's a special group of players that have the best seats in the house, the Bench Warmers. Although sitting out of a game may be a let down, and they'd much rather be scoring points, making assists, and doing what they do best off the bench, these devoted team members still maintain a positive attitude. One of the most excellent examples of this pride, is shown by Jim Stemmier: “As long as the team is playing well, it doesn't bother me at all. An attitude like that is what truly makes a winning team-on or off the bench. So. the next time you're at a volleyball match, a basketball game or a football rumble, think of the dedicated members backing up the ranks on the sideline, and if you happen to be on that sideline, just remember what a wise young man told me. Hard work and a little luck always leads to a break. •Cathy Drzewiecki Some ol the girls' volleyball players show iust how intense sitting the bench can be IHSAA Executive Committee's Mental Attitude Award winner Brenda Novak whips a practice ball Off The Record 89 AAU School Rivals Result In City Champs Michigan City has two state champions.

They beat the Hamilton County Sertoma Charities All-Stars in the final game. 111-107, in overtime. The team was led by Mike Lemons. Lemons wasn’t even supposed to play because of a severe thumb iniury. He suffered the iniury in the semifinal game against the Indianapolis Municipal Gardens team, a team that boasted three Indiana all-star picks. Lemons had 14 rebounds, 3 assists, and a co-team high of 32 points. Jim Stemmier also made a significant contribution to the team. Stemmier made a three- point play with 2:48 left in the game. This gave the team the lead for good. The AAU team was comprised of players from the News-Dispatch reading area. There were players from schools such as Valparaiso. Elston. North Judson. Rogers, LaPorte. and South Central. The team was coached by John Tracy. -Scott Boland Terry Stevens, ot la Porte High School, tips the ball from his South Bend opponent Up for a rebound.

These girls are a very important part of the team. They’re the Mat, Bat, and Stat girls. These girls attend all the games and matches, stat books in hand, and diligently watch so as to not miss a detail. The Mat girls also do stats, as well as show up to wrestling practices to act as managers. The Bat girls keep a quick pace going as they run to clear home plate of bats, get the players’ helmets, and act as go-fors. These Mats, Bats and Stats may not be the actual players, but they're a valuable part of the teams. •Kathy Mickus Shufflin' To Victory We re not here to start no trouble, we re just here to do the Superbowl Shuffle. , and that's what they did. The 1985-86 Chicago Bears shuffled their way right to a Superbowl victory by defeating the New England Patriots 44-10. The Bears season started out at training camp with high hopes and goals for the season. Eventually, all their hard work paid off. The Bears were on their way to the 1986 Superbowl down in New Orleans. On January 26. 1986. the Bears' dreams came true: they won Superbowl '86. The Bears fired up the defense to eat up the Patriots in the game and also proved their defense was the best in the league. The Superbowl festivities came to an end. but not before the Bears were greeted in Chicago by a humongus crowd on State Street. Mayor Washington fired up the crowd and gave a speech praising the Bears. The fans went wild when some of the Bears spoke. Not all of them were there though. Many of the starting -line-up were on their way to Hawaii for the Pro Bowl. Also, another good point came out of the parade. Papa Bear Halas, the original owner of the Bears passed away during the season, and in his honor. Papa Bear Halas Street was named for him. Not only Chicago was hit by the Bear craze, but the rest of the U.S. as well. Bears mama spread throughout the U.S. in the form of tee-shirts, caps, sweat shirts, and every little gadget possible. For awhile, all the stores were filled with this mania, but it has cooled down some. As for The Superbowl Shuffle. it isn’t number one on the charts anymore, but the Bears produced one terrific season that no one will forget, and that’s Bear mama! -Debby Cook Off The Record 91 The Results Tumble In: BRIGHT FUTURE FOR ROGERS GYMNASTS Rather than being a source of discouragement, the girls’ gymnastics team’s season was a necessary year of experience for rebuilding the team. Two major changes posed problems for the girls in the beginning. For one thing, they had a new coach, Miss Jane Carey, so they had to adjust to a new kind of coaching. Second, the compulsory level, a level with set routines for all gymnasts with low degrees of of difficulty was abolished. It was the level that all the gymnasts from Rogers competed in last year. So, all the gymnasts had to invent their own routines and compete in the difficult and competitive optional level. Most other teams have been competing optionally for years. The girls took this challenge and developed a respectable season, but mainly laid out an open road for the future. The team was composed of three juniors, eight sophomores and three freshmen. The team’s leading scorers were Kim Withrow, Angie LaRocco, and Kelley Jarosak. As a junior, Kelley was a well- balanced gymnast, competing in the floor exercise, uneven bars, and vault. She scored well and had a substantial collection of ribbons from all three events. Kim and Angie both competed in all-around competition for most of the season and both consistently placed in the top five in each meet. Kim really shined at sectionals where she scored well in all four of her events. She placed ninth in the balance beam with her best performance of the year. Because of Kelly’s performance, consistency, and leadership qualities, she was named the team captain. Sophomore Anne Latchford was a welcome newcomer and received the Raider award for her great improvement throughout the year. She was the only other gymnast, besides the three previously mentioned, who was on the sectional squad, in which she competed on the vault. The girls’ season was certainly one of anticipation. With the bright individual performances and improving underclassmen, you can be sure that Miss Carey and the Rogers’ gymnasts are looking forward to competing next season and may be building a perennial gymnastics power at Rogers. -Brian Nietzel Dazzling the camera with her finesse, team captain Kelley Jarosak takes time out for a pose while practicing her uneven bars routine.

For example, senior Troy Nied placed third in the sectionals. Also, Jason Hiss who was fourth in the 100-yard backstroke, along with Nied, narrowly missed qualifying for state competition. The fourth diver in the sectional finals and the Raiders top diver was Brian Nietzel. “Brian broke the school record in diving three times with a total of 258.70 points, Coach Kovenz stated. Finally, super senior swimmer Mark Zummak qualified for the state finals. Kovenz noted, “Mark Zummak is the first boy to qualify for the state meet since 1979.

Guy Sharp, a member of the varsity team stated, “Eventhough it wasn’t fun losing half of our meets, it was a pretty good season because we worked as a team.” Senior Rod Douglas led the team and gained the honor of Most Valuable Player. Senior Pat Troy won the Raider Award for Most Imporved Wrestler. Four of the eighteen member varsity squad qualified for regionals. There were three seniors: Pat Troy, Karl Steinhiser and Rod Douglas, who went on to compete at regionals. Sophomore Guy Sharp also qualified but was unable to compete because of an injury he received before the tourney. Sharp said he is looking forward to next year because many of his opponents from other schools will be graduating. Rod Douglas proceeded to simi-state where he took a first place. “It was the best win for me this year” he said. Rod ended up taking eighth at state out of sixteenth in his weight class. The future looks promising in other aspects, too. Although Kosta Hatzikostantis was just a freshman this year, he competed on the varisty team.

The team always gave each other support, whether it was a win or a loss. Although the score was not in their favor during a long, hard fought game, they never gave up. As one player put it, they always played twenty-one outs. Many players will be returning next year in hopes for a better season. Two of the special awards given out this year were a repeat of last year.

The Strokes Add Up: YOUNG GOLFERS HOPE FOR 100 WINNING FUTURE The Rogers Boys’ Golf Team didn’t produce a winning season in their ’86 campaign, but with their total underclassmen roster and bright individual talent, Rogers can certainly look forward to a dominating power in the sport of golf for the next few years. With its three juniors, five sophomores, and four freshmen, the team was surprisingly well balanced. As manager Jennie Savinski mentioned, the individual golfer’s statistics were so close to each other that one would never know who would shoot the best scores at each match. Surprisingly enough, sometimes a Rogers junior varsity player would have a better score than most all of the varsity players from both teams at dual meets. Therefore, there was alot of lineup shuffling, and many golfers saw both varsity and junior varsity action throughout the year. Though all the team members were vital scorers in each match, two sophomores and four freshmen were the standouts during the season, This really supports the anticipation of brilliant upcoming seasons. Sophomore Jim Liverman was named as the team MVP, and sophomore Rich Jacobs was recognized as “Most Improved”. The ‘fantastic four freshmen’ (Dwayne Peters, Gregg Voytovich, Randy Warren, and Steve Westphal) all proved themselves as extremely promising golfers, with each one of them carding exceptional scores in various matches throughout the year. For how young the Rogers boys’ golf team was, their ’86 campaign was certainly successful and provided much needed experience. The individual and team statistics certainly seem to point to a very bright future. Coach John Jones put it best when he commented, “We’ll take our kicks in ’86, we’ll start revvin’ in ’87, for we’re going to State in ’88.” -Brian Nietzel Boys Golf Team: Row 1: Coach John Jones, Dwayne Peters, Tony Haro, Dan Schwyn, Row 2: Greg Voytovich, Mike Cook, Sean McNallen, Rich Jacobs, Rod Beckner, Steve Westphal, Randy Waren, Bill Meer.

Hardly anyone did, but they showed the town of Michigan City, as well as the state of Indiana. In the beginning of the season, the girls looked tough and ready to play bed), but as the season progressed, they fell into a slump. They finished the season at 9-9. During the season, coach John Richmond used the words teamwork and pride and as the team came closer and closer to the state finals, those words really meant something. It was the teamwork and the pride within themselves to work as a team that got them to Indianapolis. With everyone behind them, the team traveled to Indianapolis. It was an honor just to be there. Finally, it was game time. The girls defeated Jennings County 6-0 Friday night and went to defeat Ben Davis 6-2 Saturday morning. Next came the impossible dream-playing in the state finals. The team gave everything they had, but they fell short in the end by losing to the Center Grove Trojans 9-2. The dream of being State Champs was swept away, but the Raiders were very proud of their accomplishments. The big honor of the evening came when Principal Douglas Adams presented shortstop Brenda Novak with the IHSAA Mental Attitude Award. Besides Novak’s award, the team was honored at a banquet sponsored by the Booster Club. Mayor Cliff Arnold was there and read a proclamation from the city that claimed June 25, 1986, as Rogers High School Girls’ Softball Day. Also at the banquet, third baseman Beth Herod was named MVP and pitcher Laura Heyne received the Raider Award. All in all, the team finished on a good note, with an overall record of 15-10 and everyone turned out to be a winner. -Debby Cook Co captalns Brenda Novak and Jdle Kiser along with Head Coach John Richmond receive the State Runner-up trophy and game ball from the IHSAA.

Ending the season with a 2-12 record, the girls made a spectacular finale at sectionals against fourteenth ranked LaPorte. According to Coach Linda Meyer, the team improved overall during sectionals and played an excellent match against the Slicers, despite their loss. Senior MVP Pam Voytovich took the number one singles spot, followed by juniors Toni Bour and Kris Wienke in the number two and three positions. Also showing fine improvement from last year were varsity doubles players Jacke Hiss, Tracy Alber, Kristi Ellwood, and Most Improved Player was Sue Randolph. Coach Meyer was very pleased to see the improved performances in these former JV players and expects to see a more excelled season next year. -Cathy Drzewiecki Kristi Ellwood takes careful notice of the ball as it approaches.

Coach Fischer said the team ended the season on an up note by defeating S.B. St. Joe 97-30. That victory was also one of their best performances of the year. Coach Fischer said they also did well in the sectionals. Bob Baugh and Rob Schaffer shared the honor of being captains of the team. They were picked by their teammates. Senior Bob Baugh was also named MVP of the team. Senior Ryan Fly and Sophomore Brad Vaughn tied for the “Running Raider Award.’’ Rob Schaffer qualified for regionals in the shot put and Ryan Fly qualified in the long jump. The future looks good for the track team. There are a lot of sophomores returning next year. According to Coach Fischer, the sophomores were “the high-point getters” for this year’s team. More than half of the sophomores received their letters. There are a few juniors and freshmen returning next year. If the sophomores produce well next year, it will make for an interesting season.

But with the discovery of Mr. Carl Gast and Mrs. Virginia Owsley as head coach and assistant coach respectively, along with the determination and efforts of the teammembers, the outlook for the season seemed a little brighter. “We weren’t able to start practices on time, but even though the team was five weeks behind, the girls showed steady improvement,” remarked Coach Owsley. “The girls put in a great effort.” Although the track team ended their season with a 1-8 record, some unexpected feats were accomplished. Not only did the girls place second in a triangular meet during the season, but sophomore Lisa Hultgren and junior Audra Williams also qualified for sectionals. Williams was named MVP and freshman Amy Hibner won the Most Improved Award. Probably the best result of the girls’ track team this year was that they overcame the odds and proved that they have what it takes to be true winners. -Cathy Drzewiecki Taking a break from their rigorous practice, sectional participants Lisa Hultgren and Audra Williams pose for the camera.

The Raiderettes and Raider Band provide entertainment during the football and basketball games. Some of the other clubs such as fashion club, drama club, chess club, and science club offer education as well as enjoyment. Rogers also has organizations that help the students of Rogers find jobs.

Some boys formed their own cheer block, but others got involved in the little yellow basketballs that the cheerleaders threw into the crowd during time outs. ‘7 was really proud of the way my cheerleaders got along with the Elston cheerleaders at camp. The sportmanship that developed there carried on into the season and was evident at the Rogers- Elston game when we did our group cheer. ” -Miss Richards The cheerleaders go to camp every year. Usually just the varsity go, but this year the JV squad went also. At camp they learned new cheers, they learned new dances, and they had spirit contests. Another new thing that the cheerleaders did this year was participate in a few cheers with the Elston cheerleaders at the Rogers-Elston basketball game. Both high school’s cheeleaders got along this year and supported each other at camp.

They’re just set aside and no one pays attention to them. Clubs such as Esprit and Raiderguard support other activities at school, but they’re not given any credit. Esprit has made signs for some of the sports teams. To join Esprit, you must experience a very embarrassing initiation. Initiates may have to wear a garbage “Esprit is a very fun club, but it needs more participation from the members. ” •Jennie Savinski bag, a hat, and a sign on which the football players sign their names. If they happen to pass a current member of Esprit in the hall and she tells them to do something that is very embarrassing, they have to do it in order to be in the club.

They go to the contests and perform at halftime of the football games with the band. •Lori Grams Esprit And Raiderguard 115 Raider Band Is No Illusion Band. To most people, The word brings images of blue and gold costumes, drum majors and home football games. However, to those who have put hours into rehearsing, marching, and sweating, the word means companionship, friendship and sportsmanship. Band also brings overtones of Skittles battles, dressing up for concerts and episodes of trying to sneak out of the band room at 1:30. Nevertheless, the dedicated musicians wouldn’t have it any other way. Led by drum majors Dean Bootcheck, Elizabeth Santiago, and Tia Pearson, the marching band showed splendid form. Although many of the members would have enjoyed winning more awards, the season still proved to be a success. What seems to be a concern with the band is the support needed from the student body. In any case, the music goes on and harmony continues throughout the group. So the next time you head toward the concession stand or wander past the band room, stop for a minute to listen. The results of their hard work may pleasantly surprise you. -Janet Bolinger -Cathy Drzewiecki Dean Bootcheck: “I hope performing my illusion will encourage marching bands everywhere to never be afraid to try something new. ” Mr. Hendricks directs the flute section through their harmonious solo.

First there was David Burkhart, a student teacher from Ball State, who was here from December to February. Marilyn Stinger was here from Valpo University. She was here from March to May. Mr. Trueax’s experience taught both of them how to be good directors. The choruses were in three performances here at Rogers: Premiere Night, the Winter Concert and Pop Night. Some members of the choruses also participated in the All- City concert where members of the choirs from both Elston and Rogers participated. Students also participated in the regional contest at Gary West High. The people “Being in a Rogers choral union is more than having another class, it’s making a serious commit- ment. ” -Brian Nietzel who earned a superior and were eligible to go on to the state contest where soloists, Erica Wagner and Leslie White; who each earned firsts and Byron Hurt a second. Ensembles of the Minnesingers won a first and of the advanced gold Chorus a second. The Minnesingers were, of course, very busy this year. Besides performing at the concerts they also performed at many other places in Michigan City; December and May being their busiest months. They also had a very enjoyable show they put together called “Doug’s Diner’’ that took place in the cafeteria. It was cabaret style. The audience sat at tables and had cake and coffee while watching a very interesting show, seeing songs being performed from the “Sound of Music’’ to “The Wiz.’’ The Music Department worked hard this year and put on many good performances. -Amy Russell The Minnesingers “reach out and touch” their audience in every performance.

Each club-Spanish, French, and German- has been active in many different ways. French Club, for example, presented a French Production of Cinderella for elementary school students. Halloween festivities were also enjoyed, as a party was thrown for club members. Each person was dressed in some type of French related costume for a touch of culture. German students, when not writing sprechens, sold scrumptious German chocolates to raise money for club activities. These include a field trip to Chicago to see “The Mr. Hakim: “The best part is that the students will have the opportunity to meet teens from other countries. ” Nutcracker” and then a stop in German Town for some fine German cuisine. Spanish Club also made the usual field trips, but club sponsor, Mr. Hakim, has some special plans for the summer. He and fifteen others will tour Europe over a period of twenty days. Many of the historical monuments and museums, such as the Eiffel Tower, will be visited as well as the different hot spots within each city. “The best part is that the students will have the opportunity to meet teens from other countries, “remarked Hakim.

Rory Drennan Foreign Language 127 International Experiences On March 15, 1986, 15 students from Schyren Gymnasium in West Germany arrived at O’Hare Airport, destined for a trip they won’t ever forget. The group stayed for three weeks, but the weeks went by so quickly that at the end, it seemed as if they only stayed a few days. The students and their hosts packed quite a few activities into their short stay. They visited various museums, such as the LaPorte Museum, the Field Museum, and the Art Institute. Other tourist attractions they visited were the Sears Tower, the Dunes National Lakeshore, and the steel mills. When not touring, they amused themselves by dancing at Pebblewood and going to movies such as The Color Purple. Shopping was another popular activity. The most successful activities though, were the parties at the various hosts’ homes. Loud music, lots of food, and laughing, characterized these get- togethers. The exchange program provides an opportunity for the exchange of ideas and cultures, while making close firends. At the end of the short stay, there were quite a few tearful goodbyes, showing how close the students and their hosts had become. -Lori Scott Jenny Menke and Maria Lopez also experienced a foreign exchange.

Christiane Hornig displays her talent on the recorder. The Student Senate worked to bring school spirit back to Rogers by “experimenting” with various things. First, there was the hall spirit competition in which each class was assigned a hallway to decorate. The classes used banners, balloons, streamers and even road barricades. It made the halls look a lot more interesting and got rid of Student Senate hopes some day that the pep sessions will be allowed back in school. They think if students can yell and cheer for their teams it will bring more spirit into Rogers. But what Student Senate will probably be most remembered for is trying to close the smoking area. They felt it gave a bad image to Rogers among other the “institutional tan.” Then came the spirit weeks to celebrate Rogers going to Semi- State. Some of the successful days were July Day , Pajama Day, and of course, Blue and Gold Day. The Student Senate also had a very successful dance after the Rogers-Marquette game, in which a lot of students attended. things. They let the students voice their opinions on what should be done with the smoking area. The results were 688 to keep it open, 505 to close it. All and all, the Student Senate accomplished many of its goals and had an usually successful year. -Amy Russell “Student Senate tried to instill and get spirit going again”. -Mr. Kent Lange Student Senate Supports Spirit Student Senate members discuss plans for upcoming events.

They study the theory of applied electronics; get an in-depth study of math, science and microprocessors. “Mr. Boehner teaches on a college level and treats all of us as adults,” explained Brian Ahern. The science club is sponsored by Mr. Hultgren and is for “I’ve learned at least two new types of math and multiple types of circuit analysis, some of which aren’t even taught in college. ” •Carl Campbell students interested in scientific professions. At their monthly meetings, local professionals or speakers from PNC come and talk about scientific occupations. This year Dr. Tucker and a group of navy men came and talked about nuclear training. Also, Dr. McBride brought in and explained the human heart. “It’s important for young science-minded students to become acquainted with what’s available and to be exposed to the requirements to fulfill scientific goals,” explains Mr. Hultgren.

Communication Through Appendages. The CTA is a club to teach people how to communicate with the deaf. The group was started because sponsors, Mrs. Wagner and Ms. Heeg were interested in Krysti Ellwood, whose family is hearing impared. When Krysti was learning how to talk, she learned to sign at the same time. “It was very happy with the response from the media. It made people more aware of the deaf community. ” ■Krysti Ellwood CTA, because of its originality, received a lot of attention from the media. At first, CTA started learning the basic everyday words, and by December they had learned a few Christmas carols. During December they visited Bailly Elementary a school for deaf kids. The CTA signed Christmas and talked (in sign) with the children. In March they had a toy drive for Bailly and received many nice items. The CTA is not only a fun, but educational club whose benefits are well worth it. •Amy Russell The Art classes depict what you will see at a CTA meeting; HANDS. HANDS. HANDS!

Life In The Fast Lane After spending the last six hours cooped up in a classroom, the last thing on your mind is doing homework. What should you do instead? Feed the cat? Watch the Flintstones? Visit Aunt Ernestine? Don’t be ridiculous! Why not enjoy three afternoons a week in the fast lane with the Bowling Club? The results of this year’s league were quite 182 for high game scores. Top high series bowlers were Tim Setser with a 718 and Trisha Nelson with 486. If the action of the Bowlarama is a little too strenuous for your liking, why not slow down and take time out to stop and smell the roses in Horticulture Club? With a bounty of exotic carnations, Horticulture Club members held many Lisa Pliskey: ‘7 like bowling because it’s a real challenge trying to beat each score. ” impressive. Coming out on top were Alber’s Sharks, made up of Trisha Nelson, Randy Watkins, Rob Rude and Vern Spohn. Claiming second and third place standings were Adam’s Apples and Koepke’s Kursors. Individual standouts in bowling were Rich Gordon, bowling a 278, and Lisa Pliskey with a flower sales during the holidays and special occasions. Considering the spirit and adventure of competition in bowling and the botanical beauty that Horticulture Club offers, why not get off the couch, turn off Fred and Wilma and enjoy life in the fast lane. -Cathy Drzewiecki Bowling Club Horticulture Club 133 New Wave Fashions The Rogers and Elston clothing students combined their talents to put on a very entertaining fashion show at Marquette Mall on April 25. “New Wave Fashion” was the 12th show produced jointly by the crosstown schools. Prior to 1974, the show was held in the Rogers Auditorium, but it was not very well attended. Mrs. Aliena Wallace, clothing teacher at the time, explained that it was very disappointing for the students to go to all the work for the show and not have many program: Karen Baranowski, Angela Floward and Cara Rubinelli. According to Baranowski, the major difference between beginning and vocational clothing is that students get to work almost immediately at the start of the school year since they’ve already had the basics. Cost of the course is a major factor, however, since students are required to furnish all of their supplies and equipment other than the actual sewing machine. Beginning students are required to make four Karen Baranowski: “It makes you feel good that people recognize your talents. ” people show up to see it. Wallace then relocated the show to the mall, where the students would be more visible and have an opportunity to display their garments. Students from beginning clothing classes, as well as vocational clothing students participated. All of the garments modelled are made by the students in their classes. For variety, young children were also used as models, wearing clothing made by relatives. Vocational clothing is held at Elston as a three hour course. Three students from Rogers commute to Elston to participate in the garments throughout the year and vocational students are required to make 12 garments, a quilt, and a child’s outfit. Angela Floward explained an outside benefit of the fashion show: “Some students were even approached by people in the audience to make clothes for them.” Asked how she felt about modelling in the show, Karen Baranowski explained, “It’s neat to hear their comments from stage like, ‘That’s sharp! or I like those colors.’” She added, “It makes you feel good that people recognize your talents.” Cara Rubinelli models the latest look for summer style. 134 Organizations Fashion Club: Row Ow- Doris Brown, Kim Dy- sard.

Instead of focusing on the negative aspects of student life, the group plans on focusing its efforts on rewarding the good things students do. The group has changed its name to Students Staying Straight. There are plans for an alcohol-free dance. Also, groups of high school students will visit the grammar schools to educate the children on alcohol abuse. Both events focus on not drinking and driving. The group would like to expand the events for academically achieving students. Plans for open gym and other events for group members are also in the works. The group would like to extend an invitation to all students to join the group. One of the newest arrivals at Rogers this year is the C.I.A. Club which stands for Christian Issues and Answers. Sponsored by Ms. Benz and Mrs. Mershon. C.I.A. meets weekly and brings students together to talk about different interests or problems. Club members can share in the study of the Bible as well as in group discussions in order to get to know each other better. From parties to volleyball games to Quiz Bowls, C.I.A. has something for everyone to enjoy. -Cathy Drzewiecki -Marc Kniola Mrs. Benz: “It’s a great opportunity for young people of like values to get together and share their hopes and ideas. ” S.A.D.D.: Row One- Sponsor Mr Gentile.

If your answer is yes to either of the above, then chances are you have just encountered a member of the Drama Club or Stage Crew. Presenting the fall musical, “The Pajama Game” and the winter success of the shows. Just what is it that draws the attention of these people to the stage? According to veteran actor, David Dabagia, “It gives myself and others a chance to express ourselves.” Mike Cook, who heads much of the crew’s work, finds a lot of satisfaction working behind the scenes. “Stage Crew has play, “Harvey”, the Drama Club has been busy entertaining audiences with many great performances. However, without the talents of the Stage Crew, the productions would have been lessened. Sponsors, Mr. Troyer, Ms. Heeg, and Mr. Peters also put in many hours of hard work, adding to the everything I like to do, like building and painting,” says Mike. Perhaps the best part is that both cast and crew pull together and work as a team. With this combined talent, it’s no wonder that each performance results in one success after another. ■Cathy Drzewiecki David Dabagia: “Drama Club gives myself and others a chance to express ourselves. ” Mr. Troyer and Ms Heeg congratulate each other on another outstanding performance.

Tim Bietry. prepare for the DeMoiay Pancake Breakfast. Students Get Down To Business Organizations take place not only in school, but out of school as well! A popular extra-curricular activity for students is DeMoiay. DeMoiay is intended for young men, but they choose “DeMoiay Sweethearts”, so that the ladies can get involved as well. The main purposes of DeMoiay are the building of better citizens and creating leaders through the development of character in young men. The youth movement bolsters a boy's character by emphasizing the virtues of comradeship, reverence, love of parents, patriotism, courtesy, cleanliness, and fidelity. The entire program of a DeMoiay chapter revolves about these seven cardinal principles. DeMoiay does not attempt to take the place of the home, church, or the school, but rather to supplement them with a supporting program of teaching good citizenship to its members. Like other activities, a member will only get out of DeMoiay what he puts into it. If he enters whole- heartedly into the activities of the chapter, which range from community service projects to social affairs and athletics, he will form lasting friendships, and among other things, he will learn responsibility and self-reliance. Some participating Rogers students are: Dan Rajsic, Eric Schlegelmilch, Kevin Schlegelmilch, Brad Vaughan, Jim Stolze, Steve Foss, Todd Jones, Chris Moss, John Harrison, Erick Goede, Rich Burton, Russell Hapke, Steve Laughrey, Dave Miller, Danny West. Brian Bootcheck, and Rob Casper. Tami Wightman, also from Rogers, was this year’s DeMoiay Sweetheart. Andrew Knouse •Kathy Mickus Another interesting extracurricular organization for students to join outside of school is Junior Achievement; better known as J.A. J.A. is an organization geared at teaching teenagers the “how-to’s of the business world. Horace A. Moses, president of Stratmore Paper Company, founded the organization in 1919. Each Junior Achievement company is run by students. They receive help from volunteer advisers from local businesses and organizations. The meetings are on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Officers are elected and each group is run as an actual company would be. The members vote on and make products to sell; this gives them practical business and sales experience. For students who hope to one day enter the corporate world. J.A. is the answer! There are 200,000 students world wide who are in J.A. The “achiever will make new friends and obtain valuable contacts and references. Each member can also gain recognition for achievements and gain insight into many fascinating careers. -David Nash -Kathy Mickus WHOLESOME FUN Though many don’t realize it, a very popular high school extracurricular group activity on today's teen scene is church youth groups. No matter what church you belong to, almost every denomination has some type of program for its youth. Church youth programs are for teens to meet others in a wholesome environment. Now don’t let the word ‘wholesome’ fool you; these groups plan some great activities such as summer retreats, pizza parties, beach parties, and about anything else one could imagine. The word “wholesome’ just expresses that teens can have fun together by being themselves. You don’t have to conform, there’s no peer pressure, and alcohol and drugs aren't included — teens can just have fun naturally. -Brian Nietzel PEMOiAY S BUIIDS 138 Off The Record CONSERVATION The Indiana Dunes State Park and Barker Mansion are both important parts of Michigan City’s history. These landmarks are threatened, however, by pollution, industrialization, and modernization. A group of citizens wanted the dunes to be saved because they are so unique and provide recreation for area citizens, so they formed the Save the Dunes Council. The group's major achievement has been to establish the Dunes National Lakeshore in 1966. They still have to combat pollution by preserving strong pollution control laws, and by fighting attempts to remove the dune’s federal protection laws. They are also trying to acquire more land outside of the park’s present boundaries. The council provides an up-to-date newsletter about activities going on at the park and spring and fall dinners with guest speakers for their members. Membership to the Save the Dunes Council is open to the public. Barker Mansion was built by John Barker, a wealthy railroad car manufacturer. It is an ornate home that is now used as a civic center for meetings and is open to the public for tours. The mansion is special because the house still retains much of the original furnishings. It is also important because it stands as a landmark to a family that contributed a lot to the benefit of Michigan City. For example, the Barkers donated money for landmarks of Michigan City, such as making a large contribution to the pier at the lakefront. The Friends of Barker was created in 1985 to help in the preservation and restoration of the mansion. The Friends of Barker have helped in the restoration of a few rooms that are now open to the public. One fund raiser they have is a Christmas tour of the home. Various local groups decorate rooms with Christmas decorations in December. Public tours are taken through the house for a nominal fee. Proceeds then go to the Barker Mansion for further restoration. Membership to this group is also open to the public. -Lori Scott ► A view of the beautiful, but endangered. Lake Michigan shoreline.

The report showed four major classifications of people at Rogers: freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Each of the different classifications of people at Rogers has its own special area of involvement during the year. The freshmen have the beginning of their first year in high school. It’s a big change from junior high to senior high. Also, they must find their niche in the school, in other words, where they fit in. For the sophomores, they’re past their first year. but are still classified as underclassmen. This is the year they receive a driver’s license and begin to think it’s a great thing. The juniors plan the senior prom and put in a lot of time and hard work after school. Finally, there are the seniors who have worked hard for four long years to reach the highlight of their high school lives-graduation. I realize that even though each class has its own characteristics and style, the people at Rogers are special people. They are successes in academics, sports, and anything else that comes their way. 146 People John Putchaven kicks back and sports his “happenin” shades at a Rogers girls’ volleyball game.

Del Lonzo had taught 38 years, displaying the true meaning of educator and teacher. Mr. Lonzo gave encouragement to many seniors who passed through Rogers doors. He gave instruction, counsel, and friendship. Mr. Lonzo passed on in his office while grading papers. Many say he was doing what he would have wanted to, living out his role as a teacher. Mr. Lonzo was not only well liked in school, but also in the community. For example, he was one of the main initiators in the organization of the Michigan City Scholarship Foundation. Mr. Lonzo had a temper, but only for those he knew were not giving it their all. He expected a lot and we 're better for it.

Senior Summaries 197 L As I grabbed the final folder, “Business”, 1 noticed it did not have eight to ten reports like the other sections, but instead, had about fifty. This big, fat folder contained the results of the main source of revenue for the yearbook. Just think, some of the places we hang out at and things we enjoy like McDonald’s, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, and Little Caesar’s support this yearbook. There are also other community conscious businesses that don’t directly deal with student trade, such as Troy Realtors, Cook’s Delight, Blocksom and offer support to the Rogers student body by buying advertising space in the book. Then there are the Booster Club, and even many individual parents who support the yearbook by buying patron ads. The financial support of these groups directly benefits all Rogers students because their added revenue helps to keep the cost of the yearbook lower for students to buy. Finally, I approached the last of the ad reports. I was not only able to close the “Business” folder, but the “Results” folder as well. I realized that the combined efforts of the community, administration, faculty and students equal great results at Rogers. 198 Business Stephanie Vaughan and Judy Zarazee show what an exciting time Only the Beginning can be.

Nancy Church And Shelly Sitar V 222 Index J Graduates from the class of 1986 check over their newly received diplomas. I sat back after reviewing the reports on Rogers, and I definately knew that Rogers was the place to be. Excellence occured in every aspect of the school — academics, sports, organizations, and student life. Much effort and care was put in the school. The culmination of it all though, was graduation. The class of 1986 worked four, long years to achieve the ultimate in high school- their diplomas. They had their trials and tribulations, and their fun. Who else but the class of ’86 would stage an all-out food fight on one of the last days of school, or do something so generous as donate 118 pints of blood to the community and contribute to a remembrance portrait of Mr. Lonzo? The reports said that the saga of the class of '86 ended on May 28, 1986. But for these students, it really has just begun, and it all peaked at Rogers High School. With the outcome of the ’85-’86 year, it’s no doubt that the students of Rogers will survive, because Rogers has had RESULTS.
