Starting just after the close of the 83-84 term, workers began the facelift. Students hired to work at schools in the district began their summer vaca- tion at school, helping to spray paint ceilings that contained asbestos. This was done to help meet federal guidelines. These students also helped brighten a few classrooms with the annual painting. Glassman's had three men crawling around and under the school trying to replace asbestos pipes and fix some of the old plumbing. 'S hile painting and plumbing were going on, roofers started scrapping gravel and melting tar to fix the leaks in the roof. School started and strange sounds from below and above continued. Students from Mrs. Honomichel’s 7th hour biology class started working to improve the outside by planting small trees and flowers by the tennis courts. Meanwhile, large trees which had surrounded the flag pole were transplanted near the gym to make way for the bronze statue which was com- missioned by StuCo. Still the wonderful aroma of tar was invading the halls. “Roofer wrestling and wheelbarrow races provided entertainment for the students during class. Chuck Sellens, Tim Hutchings, Wade Echer, Mike Davis, Kim Boxberger, Pete Cochran, Mark Smith, Andrea Krug, and Jana Mai, art students, were selected to continue with the interior decorating, painting murals in the main hall, student ounge, senior hall, and the teachers’ lounge. School neared the end and almost all of the work was complete . . . above, the dull thud of footsteps continued. 16 17 FRESHMEN Geography: Where should the freshmen be found?

Their main school activity was supplying the football and basketball fans with their programs at every game. Other activities included helping the Halloween Parade and sponsor- ing the Easter Egg Hunt. They have also helped the Kiwanis with the Pancake Feed and Jr. Olym- pics. The Key Club’s annual con- vention was held in Kansas City and the Russell affiliate attended. Right Column. Key Club Officers for the 1984-85 school year are.

Under the guidance of Mr. Hoffman, the AFS Club had another lucrative year. This year’s fund raiser the AFS International Dinner was a great success. But the activity most en- joyed by the members was the AFS Roundup, held in Colby. Above Left: AFS Exchange student Nayo Rojas.

Her American host family was the Dick McCrary family. Her sister, Kim, is a junior at RHS. Little did she realize that a small town, such as Russell, would present so many challenges, activities, and friendships to be made. When asked to best describe herself in one word, Nayo, as she prefers to be called, sees herself as adventurous. She feels that visiting the United States has been a great way to meet people. Nayo is a very warm and open person and a great asset to Russell High. We hope RHS will add to her many memories of our little town in Kansas. During Nayo’s stay she was very active on the volleyball and golf teams, and also in Russell Choral and AFS. While not in school or involved in extracurricular activities, she enjoyed reading, walking, bicycl- ing, and listening to music. Some of her favorite rock groups are Van Ilalen and Chicago, and she loves Michael Jackson. 89 FOREIGN AFFAIRS THE FINNISH WAY Riikka kallioinen came to Russell from Lahti, Finland through the Youth for Understanding Program. Her American host family for the year was the Lee Tarrant family. Riikka's sisters, Kim and Michelle, are also students of KIIS. Riikka was involved in many school activities and she had the chance to meet many new friends. She was very active in many school activities, in- cluding AFS. She participated on the tennis, basketball, and track teams, and her talents were displayed in the Broncette Pops Ensemble. Riikka has been a great addition to our school for the past year. We will always have a little bit of Finnish in us all from Riikka and she will be taking a little bit of Kansas back with her. 90 91 KAYETTES Almost anything goes was one of the highlights for Kayettes. Among other activities the club participated in was the “Spirit Dance, a dance that followed Winter Sports' activities. An idea that the club was able to bring to realization was the Turkey of the Year Contest. Students cast penny ballots to vote for their favorite teacher and Mr. Hoffmann walked away with the honors, a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. Leading the club was President Star Blanke, who was assisted by Vice- President Barbara Craven and Secretary-Treasurer Catherine Larson. The few but mighty members this year were: Dawn Hull, Sonya Brock, Lynn York, Letty Hunt- ington, Kathy Kowalke, Andrea Krug, Amy Jennings, Melissa Lyc- zak. Amber Hull, Mary Proffitt, Sherrv Smith, Pam Smith, Amy Da wson, Sharon Scheonberger, Anita Krug, and Stacy Camp. 92 FORENSICS I ' PI r ) Above: Have you hugged your Forensics student today?

StuCo accomplished many things this year. They instituted the academic letter system so that students can letter by their grades as well as in athletics. The bronze bronco was paid for and it will now be displayed in the front of RHS. Members took part in delivering Pride Questionaires to the com- munity and tested food for the school lunchroom.

(The Journalism Staff) What J ournalism class celebrated birthdays instead of meeting their deadlines? (The 1984-85 class) Who was journalism's best friend all year long? (While-Out) Creative talent was shown this year, but punctuality was lacking. The Journalism class missed year- book deadlines but felt that the “quality” of their product war- ranted the delays. The Editor was Sheryl Krug and the Assistant Editor was Kristy Line. Writing ability was shown when story deadlines approached each month for The Pony Express. The Editor of the newspaper was Corby Novotny and the Assistant Editor was Johnny Boyd. The other members of the Jour- nalism class were Karnelle Fogle, Becky Hockman, Jana Mai, Judy Martin, Kathi Schremmer, Kim Tarrant, Beverly Vasey, and Kaniona Ziegler.
