Students Face a Changing TR GETTING ST BRT ED Summer came to an end and students eagerly anticipated the new and different paths awaiting them. The future held the key to all of their dreams, hopes, and goals. Mixed feelings seemed to occur, but were soon forgotten as the year moved ahead. This was the beginning, the start of an exciting and successful school year. Activities such as Above, Walter Howard, ad- ministrator, explains one of the new discipline procedures to Iohanna Coopwood in the front office. At right, Key Club members diligently work after school to finish the breakthrough for the Churchill game. Beginning of school Susan Bacon 8: Kim Childs Melody Henk and Danna Bushell participate in morn- ing band practice. registration, schedule changes, and locating lockers took place in an orderly fashion. According to Walter Howard, assistant principal, of the past three years this was the greatest. The majority of the credit goes to the students, who cooperated in making this a successful year, Howard said. The many changes had a tremendous effect on all who were involved with Roosevelt. They gave new ideas for advancement and established a unique atmosphere to work in. Change could have been looked at with a positive or negative attitude. The positive lent itself to versatility and improvement as this proved to be the best academic year to date. This positive attitude met the challenge of change and won. Students showed their spirit, pride and cooperation They looked forward to the f new goals set before them. In would have been easy for students and faculty to sit t back and watch the future l become the past. T The choice was theirs and they made it in true Roosevelt form.

The 'Commit- ment to Excellence' was put forth and accepted by each Roosevelt athlete in every sport. Long practice hours com- bined with sweat and deter- mination were the key tools to achieve this objective. But sports was much more than winning and losing. It taught self control and discipline, helping the individual to build strong character need- ed in order to reach limits never before thought obtainable. In lanuary, House Bill 72. would bring about a heavy pressure on the average athlete. With penalties of in- eligibility, it forced the athletes to verify they were good students who passed all classes, with a weekly grade check. Ineligibility had become a thorn in the coaches side due to the insecurity of never knowing who would be able to play from week to week, but they adjusted with grace. Although this rule would not take effect until january, to be fair to winter and spring sports Roosevelt adopted it early to include the fall teams. The student body and faculty were proud of their athletes for a job well done. Above, while teammates Shon Horan, Iake Gombert, Ricky Yoder, and Martin Martinez help Charlie Green with his homework, Pablo Gonzalez does his Coach Ferrara imitations for Sid Armstrong. Below, lim Nix practices to perfect his already stylish form. At right, Bobby Mitchell and Iohn Hrncir prepare for upcoming cross country races.
