Le Resume is an annual publication of Salida High School, P.O. Box 70. Salida, CO., 81201. Editor, Lois Albers, Adviser, Dick Dixon Volume V Le Resume' 1977 Theme 3 Yearning For Learning........4 Muscle And Hustle.........32 Seasoning For Reasoning......74 We And Me.. .126 Index.........172 Retrospect____176 Life During Our 101st Life in the Heart of the Rockies - Our first Bicentennial year is the theme of the 1977 Le Resume. Sections of the book show life at Salida High School during Colorado's 101st year. Pages are designed to record activities as they happened during this first of our state’s second 100 years. Yearning for Learning tells of academics provided here to aid students in their quest for knowledge. Muscle and Hustle” depicts athletic programs offered as accompaniment to academic programs, while Seasoning for Reasoning gives a view of extra-curricular activities that increased opportunities for understanding life. We and Me shows the peo- ple of 1977. The album, organ- izational, and administrative photos are included here. Also included here is the first index which has appeared in a Le Resume in four years. Two previously separate sec- tions of the book are combined to form Advertising and Off Campus Learning. The joining of the sections not only makes the advertising more attractive and more accessible for the reader, it promotes patronage of local businesses, which, after all, are a part of student life. Graphics and layout of the cover are new and it is the first time since 1964 that color pho- tos have been used on the cover. One of the pictures, the win- ter cabin, is repeated in black and white, in another season, on the last division page, help- ing carry out the theme. 1977 is a year of realization for Americans and the energy crisis became more evident than ever. President Jimmy Carter made public appeals to cut down energy waste and mis- use. Drought in the west and mid- west is a foreboding possibility after a lack of snow lowered water reserve levels. A dry summer is predicted with an accordingly low crop yield as a result. In Salida, drought effects were felt through the winter as skiing at Monarch Ski Area 18 miles west slumped, with a resulting loss of tourists through town here. 1976 was an election year and Democrat Jimmy Carter, run- ning with an appeal to the grass-roots voters, defeated incumbent Jerry Ford - the first American President to hold office without being elected. Locally, approval was given by the City Council to rebuild Salida Hot Springs Swimming Pool which a gas explosion destroyed in Feb. 1975. Esti- mated cost of the project was $109,654 bid by Flatland Cus- tom Pools of Castle Rock. Construction began in November and was completed by mid-May. An addition to Kesner Jr. High was given planning approval by the School Board. If approved for construction the three room addition will house home economics and science laboratories which will help relieve overcrowding in both schools. Estimated cost of the Project is $300,000. Mt. Shavano. on the front cover, boasts the famous ’ Angel of Shavano snow formation named in local Indian Legend. The cabin in the snow on the back cover located on Marshall Pass about 13 miles southwest of Salida. and the sun- rise at Poncha Springs Cemetery 5 miles west of Salida were photographed by Lisa Hutchinson who also shot the endsheet photo of the nonhem shoulder of Mr. Shavano and division pages 4. 5 and 126, 127. Photos on pages 32, 33 and 74, 75 were taken by freshman Jeff Cruzan.

Above. Monica Hendewerk turns to leave after viewing a new display. At right. Curt Prewitt and Mark Plppia carefully sculpture wax projects. 6 Rod Farney suggested and designed the new show cases in the high school lobby. One of two sections was to be used for depart- mental use. The show cases were built by Butala Construction. Farney says the students in the art classes have shown a great deal of participation, with several of the students selling their own work. Field trips for the art classes are few because of the number of students. Salida hosted an art show for the Pikes Peak League in May. The art department purchased twelve new easels, and is planning to obtain other equipment includ- ing a metal melting furnace and welding materials for metal sculptures and wood and stone sculpturing equipment. The new equipment will allow art students to have the opportunity to build their skills. 7 Shop Classes Gain New Equipment Mark Gardunio and An DeLeo (above) work on a wood project. Brenda Strandberg waits as Jim Gentile (left) checks the attendance list. Gardu- nio (right) shows skill working with the saw. 8 THE SUN DIAGNOSTIC machine, one of two new addi- tions to the auto-shop, has been providing participating students with a chance to build their mechanical skills. Frank Bras- well, auto-shop teacher, said, The Sun was purchased for $5,000 with money from the school and from a state voca- tional fund. The other addition is an exhaust analyzer. Braswell said, It's the only one like it in town. He explained the analyzer weighs waste particles per million (ppm) and is used in connection with emission con- trol. Jim Gentile, wood-shop teacher, said, More girls were in this year's classes than in the past - mainly in his second hour class, which is wood-shop. 9 Business Class Gets New Machines The business class got 15 new business machines. Calvin Reed, typing instructor, said that 10 new electric IBM type- writers and 5 transcribing machines were purchased this year. The 10 new typewriters are for first and second year typists. The 5 IBM transcribing machines are for the office practice class. The 10 new typewriters replace old manual machines and will allow each student to have an electric machine. The 5 transcribing machines have been a real asset to the machine class and offer the stu- dent experience in preparing for office work, stated Mr. Reed. The 15 new machines were purchased with state vocational funds and school district money. The transcribing machine is a combination between a tape recorder and a dictating machine. PETE GUCCIONE.

A leaky sink drain was repaired, and instructors allowed themselves to think about the possibility of a new area for teaching Junior High Home Economics. The school board proposed an addition which, if approved, will be completed in about a year. Future Homemakers of Amer- ica, FHA, based their opera- tions from the Home Economics department, and sold candy and stationery as money making projects. ROBIN MICKLICH, BELDA Boiy cin, and Teresa Gallegos listen at top as Home Economics teacher Miss Nancy Brill explains a project. Above.

Language skills in English classes are required for three years. In addition, students may choose from a variety of elective courses to fulfill addi- tional language arts wants or needs. Some communication classes include French, Span- ish, reading, journalism, cre- ative writing, speech and debate, Black literature, Bible as literature, expository writ- ing , and novel. An extracurricular activity in the communication area is drama. Emphasis is on basics such as spelling, reading, comprehen- sion, and grammar. COMMUNICATION SKILLS FOR Louie Calvano and Craig Turner included the reading class with Mrs. Diane Polly (top). Spelling was emphasized in freshman English as teacher Dave Becker (above) helps Kathy Luchetta with a classroom version of scrabble. James Wilkins.

The Effects of Soil Micro- organisms on the Growth Responses of Plants, was the subject of Miss Bride's four- month research. Miss Bride was awarded the fair sweepstakes and a $25 cash award; first place in the Senior Biology Division with $10 cash award; and the Navy Science Award of Meritorious Achievement. The Navy Award made her eligible to compete with about 500 other students nationwide for a trip to Tokyo, Hawaii or London. In addition, Miss Bride won a $100 Scholarship to ASC. Richard Leavitt, science teacher, sponsored Miss Bride at the Regional Fair and advised her during her research. A workshop for math, science and an students was held in late March. The program was given by Professor Ron Loser. Many topics were covered; students seemed interested. The pro- gram applied mainly to math and art students. Topics explored were geometry through symmetries and transformation and application to an, both vis- ual and musical. Projective geometry and an, an in surface intersection and elementary crystallography were discussed in detail. Also covered were the works of E. C. Escher. Activities included symme- tric isometries through mirrors - kaleidoscopes and translations, rotations and glides through acrylic sheets. Slides, prints and overhead transparencies were used to give the program. The cost was $45, which was paid by the school. 17 DAVE SANGER, TEACHER, points out geo- graphic relationships of Middle Eastern countries to class members Dave Kane, Larry Roybal and Kasey O'Connor. Social Studies Provide Variety Social Studies, a broad area in which students learn about people here and abroad, gov- ernments and the past, was taught in a variety of subject areas. Course offerings included world history and American his- tory , each taught in one quarter segments. Other courses were American government, both state and local, psychology, Russian history, Middle Eastern history, ancient Greek and Roman history, and English his- tory. In addition to classroom offerings, there are a number of independent study courses open to seniors with at least a B aver- age in social studies. American history is required of all students at some time during their careers here, but other courses are electives. Students claim they feel the quarter system allows them more schedule freedom. Law Enforcement Class Is Unique Law enforcement officers taught a law enforcement class this year in room 1. Last year Law Enforcement class was uni- que in Colorado. This year the class was so successful it was taught in Buena Vista also. Willcox taught the class the position in which police officers fire a gun and displayed police weapons. At one of several demonstrations four Lake County and Leadville officers brought police dogs and explained how the dogs are trained to attack, detect drugs, retrieve, and track. Dogs also guard the police cars. UNDER SHERIFF BOB WILLCOX Top left, explains the use of handguns, and demonstrates the latest position in which to fire a hand gun.

Work-study involved a maxi- mum of 10 vocationally ori- ented students who worked at school in jobs such as office help and maintenance or custo- dial work. The program is con- ducted with 80% state funding and 20% school district money. Alocation of jobs is based on financial need. The Co-op program involved 51 students who found their own jobs with downtown businesses. In return for their work, students received school credit, and in most cases were paid by employers at the minimum wage level. WALLY GOLDEN PERFORMED a variety of jobs at the Pepsi Cola Co. plant here while Sherri Medrano worked in the Department of Social Ser- vices office. 22 DE DE BESS, left, was employed at Chaffee County Bank and Kris Anderson, bottom left, and Jim Johnson, below, worked at Scanga Meat Co. Though not a Co-op student. John Kwiek spent time at Salida Livestock Sales Co.. bottom cen- ter. 23 Carryover Sports Emphasized Physical education classes here emphasized not only mus- cular coordination and develop- ment, but also interest and knowledge of activities which can be carried into later life. Boys and girls shared activi- ties such as bowling, ice skating and golf and both engaged in other sports including softball, basketball, handball, tennis and archery. Veronica Dice taught girls classes and included teaching the girls how to invent their own games, complete with rules and regulations. Boys were instructed by Tom Breunich who was assisted during second semester by student teacher Todd Dulaney from Western State College in Gunnison. Sportsmanship was a side light which was emphasized through- out the instructional physical education program. EARLY MORNING GOLFERS like Barry Spence, far right, often disturbed frost on the Salida Golf Course greens creating sparkling patterns of foot- prints and golf bail tracks. Physical education classes combined for trips to the city skating pond or Frontzhurst Lake, top, and skaters included Laura Hergert. Lori Dear- ing. DeDe Kaess, Teri Hamel. Jackie Rodgers. Theresa Hollingshead and Karen O'Connor. Some other skaters, above, were Penny Smith. Ellen Canterbury, and Miss Hollingshead.

Professional news people and high school journalism advisers taught spe- cialized classes aimed at improving publication skilLs throughout the state. Editors, business managers, and reporters from Colorado schools found time between ses- sions to meet, discuss publica- tions , compare notes, and make new friends. 26 vy a If DA BUILD!

One serious snow storm in February failed to deposit enough water to do more than lighten a little the drought for- cast for Summer, 1977. While eastern Colorado shuddered under the weight of an enormous storm, snow piled up thick and fluffy here. Monarch Ski Area received a reprieve from barren hills which threatened an early closing date and racoon-eyed students and faculty populated halls following a sunny weekend on the slopes. By February, students usually have most of the snowballing and horseplay out of their sys- tems and are looking forward to Spring. Because of the dry win- ter the February storm gave vent for this winter activity on the doorstep of spring. 31 32 Muscle And Hustle Football.........34 Gymnastics.......40 Crosscountry ...44 Volleyball.......46 Basketball.......48 Wrestling........58 Track............62 Tennis...........68 Advertising Off Campus Learning..........70 With its curved and gnarled musculature, this tree represents the hard work and muscle men of our past put into everything they did.

Teams coached by Hergert have also taken two state championships here. In pre-season action the inex- perienced Spartans lost 8-17 to triple-A Durango. However, in the Del Norte game the purple and white proved to be tough, downing the home team 42-20 In league play Buena Vista was strong but the Spartans came out on top, 28-16. The only other threats to Salida were Manitou and St. Mary. Spartans took them both, Manitou 21-0 and St. Mary 20-6. After league play, state play- offs began. Salida's first game was against the Sheridan Rams and Spartans took an easy 25-7 victory. Hopes of another state title died, however, when Bur- lington defeated Salida there, 28-20.

Murphy is a student teacher from Western State College at Gunnison. Freshman Randy Kapushion and Sophomores Brad Franklin and Paul Witty moved up to the varsity squad after the junior varsity season was over. Kapushion caught three touch- down passes while on the varsity squad. The junior varsity team had an even 2-2 season, defeating Canon City 15-2 and Canon Abbey 20-0 but dropping to Buena Vista 0-6 and Monta Vista 17-34. Thorton commented that the team was Far better than I expected. Very little experi- ence turned into a very repre- sentative team. The caliber of our schedule places a tremen- dous demand on the competing team members. ” He continued, Only a high caliber of play can result in even a moderately successful season. The freshmen did a little bet- ter than the JV and only lost to one team. 38 RANDY KAPUSHION (10) runs for yardage while Doug Tafoya (33) looks on.

Salida came out third at the league tournament, losing to Woodland Park, who took first and St. Mary, who took second. Salida came back at the state meet grabbing second place, losing to Steamboat Springs.

The Cross Country Team started the season with a new coach and six runners. For five of the runners this was their first year of Cross Country. The team improved well throughout the season with many long sweaty practices but were still hampered by the fact that they lacked the needed experience of running the long two mile course. Coach Wilson Butacan hopes that most of the runners will be back again next season along with a few more to help add to the team depth. During Cross Country most of the runners run between 3 and 12 miles a day. The courses that they run during practices seldom are more than three times during the season. 45 Volleyball Team Ends Second Year NANCY SEIFKER, AT top, serving the ball, above.

Coach Patty Gilbert thought that the team did very well on improving throughout the season. She said that although the team lost two seniors others will paly again next year. She added that next year she will concentrate on improving in team techniques and coor- dination that handicapped members this year along with the lack of experience.

After the first two weekends of PPL action, the Spartans had a 3-1 record. After that, Buena Vista and Lewis Palmer came to Andreas fieldhouse, where the Spartans lost two close ones, which dropped them in league standings and failed to make the Salida team a threat. Coach Ray Wheeler said he thought Salida had some bad breaks, which did effect the season. He felt the Spartans had some fine basketball players. Spartans ended the season with a 10-9 record and took third in league with their 8-6 record. Although some of the players were seniors and won't be com- ing back next season, several underclassmen will be back with the experience they gained this year. Coach Dean Champ- lin helped assist Coach Wheeler. ROCKY DELEO (11) SHOOTS as Mike McQueen (43) guards an opposing player, at top left. Jeff Smith (33) goes up to block a Florence Husk- ier shot.

Boys' coach Larry Bride feels that this year’s boys' track squad was very talented and competi- tive despite the inexperience of the team. Bride said, ”1 think we were real strong in the dashes and competitive in most events.” Bride pointed out that this year's track team lacked the depth of last year but peaked when the youth of the team came around. Coach Bride commented, Out of 54 active members out for track, 38 were sophomores or freshmen which means some strong track teams in the future. The boys’ team went to the state meet in Canon City on May 20 and 21, but failed to place in the top ten teams. Individual places were taken by Scott Ross, who placed 5th in the high jump; the 880 relay team which placed 3rd; and the mile relay team which placed 5th. Coach Bride said he felt the team performed well, con- sidering its youth. JAMES RAGAN. TOP. officiates at the Salida invitational.

Additions to sports programs are unique this year as schools else- where were forced to cutback on athletic spending and programs. There were two teams, boys, and girls. The boys' team con- sisted of one senior, no juniors, and making up the rest of the team were sophomores and freshmen who had little experi- ence in the sport. Boys' tennis took place in the fall. Girls' tennis team consisted of nineteen players ranging from freshmen to seniors. Three of the nineteen participating had experience. They were, seniors Margaret Coan, Sheree Sebas- tian, sophomore Debbie Linza. Girls’ tennis took place in the spring. 69 BOOKS WON'T REPLACE the realism of actual first aid practice offered in an advanced class attended by Ken Anderson and other members of the Explorer Post.

Learning Also Happens Downtown Students are sometimes unen- thusiastic about book work but spend hours outside of school on other kinds of learning. Few acknowledge this as education, but as fun . Some work part time at the stockyards, at cattle raising, grocery packing, gas pumping, and library book checking. Others hope to get into life-sav- ing activities like the Explorer Post 2070 search and rescue team or work as an Emergency Medical Technician with the Chaffee County Ambulance.

On Friday afternoon, while most people were watching the Homecoming Parade, someone was busily lighting the wood for the bonfire, which was set up in the student parking lot. Firemen were notified in time though, and they caught the fire before it spread. After asking for donations of wood the S Club, who supplied wood for the fire, managed to come up with a bigger stack of wood than they Jiad in the first place. The crowning of the queen took place at an assembly on Friday afternoon. Brenda M r- tellaro was crowned queen and her attendants were Jolene Gon- zales, Lisa Hutchinso.1, and Valarie Martinez. The Homecoming game was against St. Marys on Oct. 23. The weather was nice and Spar- tans had no trouble defeating the Pirates, with a score of 20 to 6. At halftime, Queen Brenda was presented with the tradi- tional necklace,‘and team cap- tains Mike McQueen, Bill Shaw, and Doug Long presented the queen and her attendents with roses. The Homecoming Dance was held Oct, 23 from 9 p.m. to 12 p.m. in rooms 1 and 2 at the high school. The crowd danced to the sounds of Starfire, a Den- ver band.

The plays were presented for the Longfellow audience in the elementary all-purpose room. Most plays were also given for the high school and for the pub- lic. The first one-act plays were given on Oct. 14 and 15. Once Upon a Playground” was about several children who each had a different physical prob- lem , but two of the children were considered outcasts from the rest because of their large noses. In Animal Farm seven drama members stood and read the play. It was a parody on Communism. The Halloween play, entitled The Witch in the Golden Hat” was staged for Longfellow Grade School students only. The play was given on Oct. 29 and was about an imponant witch - the witch in the golden hat - who made a young man very happy on Halloween.

Fr. Gerald Burggeman of St. Joseph Church and Rev. Tim Fairman of the Presbyterian Church gave main address and invocation at Baccalaureate. Graduation was set off by a backdrop painted by seniors Rick Baldino and Bill Shaw. Carla Miller said the invoca- tion, Mike McQueen was mod- erator, Bill Shaw led the Pledge of Allegiance, Mark Dameron introduced speaker Carl Flowers of Denver. Monica Hendewerk announced names of graduates while school board president Wendell Hutchinson and board member Marilyn McQueen handed out diplomas. Wally Golden accepted diplomas on behalf of the class. Jim Aragon presented schol- arships and awards and Lisa Hutchinson offered the Bene- diction. The Salida Glee Club sang My Way” and the school group Misty sang Our Love for You” written by senior Pam Roybal and junior Tina Gonzales, both members of Misty. The class colors were blue and yellow and the flower was carnation. Class theme was Looking for Space, and a note on the bulletin board across from the office stated that only 58 seniors voted on the theme. Senior skip day was May 20, and many of the class members went to Canon City where they watched the State Track Meet while underclassmen remained in classes in Salida. A total of 102 members grad- uated with the class of 1977. Class sponsors were Mrs. Ada Jane Melien and James Ragan. Last day of classes was May 23 and seniors spent 3 days in prac- tices. SENIORS MET SPEAKER Carl Flower's address with mixed emotions of doubt, seriousness, and humor. Below, Brenda Martellaro, Brad Bestol, Jeannic Jackson, Bill Micklich, Kathy Webb and Larry Roybal were among those who said the speaker was Outstanding.” 108 SENIOR JEFF SMITH receives enthusiastic congratulations from sister Penny Jo, following graduation exercises, (left).

Ill District Maintains Facilities; Hopes To Solve Overcrowding THE ARTIST’S IDEA (top) of what the proposed 3-room addition and glass overpass between Kes- ner Jr. High and the high school will look like when completed. Comer pole fences (above) were added to protect lawns and shrubs. Russ Koenig and Tony Cribari (right) were among Butala Construction Co. workmen who poured the floor for the new storage addition. 112 Regular repairs were carried out last summer and plans were started during the year which will help relieve overcrowding in both Kesner Jr. High and in the high school. Superintendent Charles Mel- ien said about $165,000 was spent on 3 schools in the dis- trict. Work included new stage curtains, resurfacing of the stage at the high school, rebuilding the grand piano, painting, adding exhaust fans, fence and roof repair, and a $52,000 project to correct drainage problems on the foot- ball field. Other work included refloor- ing and repainting in 55-year- old Kesner Jr. High, new furni- ture , all new windows and insu- lation to lower fuel bills. At Longfellow Elementary School, two classrooms were added for $80,000 and 8,613 sq. ft. of sod was laid. Plans were started for addition of 3 classrooms to Kesner, esti- mated to cost $300,000. THERMO PANE WINDOWS were installed in Kesner Jr. High to help cut heating costs (above). Addition of asphalt in front qf the grandstands on Spartan Field was part of the solution to drainage problems. New sod. removal of the old track, and crowning of the field were also included in the project. 113 Students Enjoy New Social Center DAVE GRANZELLA.

The library is open during the noon hour and students go there to study. This year, however, some students were going there to talk instead of work. The reason was that the library was the only place to go if you didn't want to stand in the hall all noon hour. For this reason the Student Council created the student center. Students had been wanting a place to go for a long time. The one student center we had was done away with three years ago because students weren't taking care of it. Council bought a couch and three tables to furnish the cen- ter. A few posters were added and room 2, the student center, was a great success. The room is used for closed study halls during class hours. ns Journalism Adds New Class For the first time in recent years, journalism classes here broke into two separate seg- ments - one for newspaper jour- nalists who concertrated on writing and publishing Tender- foot Times and one for yearbook journalism with emphasis on photography, recording of the year, and production of Le Resume. Journalists attended the Colo- rado High School Press Associa- tion (CHSPA) convention in Boulder in September and hosted a workshop for the organization here April 16. A number of changes were initiated with both publications including a name change for Tenderfoot, which became Tenderfoot Times in January and several format changes in Le Resume, the most notable of which was inclusion of advertis- ing throughout the book. Ten- derfoot Times was edited by Chris Hasselbrink and Le Resume staff members worked under Lois Albers, both seniors. Tenderfoot Times repeated previous performances winning 5 gold, 4 silver and 2 bronze medals in the CHSPA Olympics: its 7th consecutive National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA) All American rating; and its third consecutive med- alist rating from Columbia Scholastic Press Association. For the third time in four years, the Colorado Press Association rated Salida's newspaper tops in the state, and Miss Hasselbrink and photographer Lisa Hutchin- son were treated to three days at the Brown Palace Hotel in Den- ver. The 1976 Le Resume earned its highest rating in history when it received a gold medal from CHSPA at the Publications Olympics. A first place rating from NSPA was received in May for the 1976 book although the entry was mailed for judging in August - 10 months earlier. Editor of the 1976 book was Cindy Pasquale, and cover art and division page illustrations were done by Jeff Stanton. The book was a complete sell out, and even the staff found they had to use their own books. 116 RICHARD HILLKER.

This Magic Moment was chosen as the theme for the dance. About $1,000 was spent for the deco- rations which included candles, paper and real flowers, and a waterfall. Freeway Jam, a Denver band, was contracted for $700 to fur- nish the music. Eight sophomores, four girls and four boys were chosen to serve refreshments. Pictures of couples, taken by Synder Portraits of Canon City and Salida, were provided by the Junior class for each couple who attended. After the dance, a breakfast was served at the Salida Golf Club by Junior Class parents. Is A 'Magic Moment' KATHY HOLLENBECK AND Jennifer Salerno, ai top, decorated for Prom.

Swing Choir, which was started by music director James Keezer, is a singing group made up of sixteen high school mem- bers. The choir performed several times, including a con- cert in Alpine Park on May 15. Three students of Salida High, along with one out of school member, make up the rock group Sapphire, which has played on several occasions in Salida. MARK DAMERON, DOUG Long. Brock Oyler. and Gene Cummins, at top, are all members of the Swing Choir. Rick Beminger. Randy Mar- shall. and Martin Epp. members of Sapphire, performed during the noon hour once. above. 121 Travel Urge Strikes On Occasion And sometime during the year the urge to get away from it all - to see windmills, to know what is at the end of the tracks or what is down the road is strong. This urge is often unsatisi- fied, but some students do seek the elephant on vaca- tions, weekend, and sometimes during the week with only the flimsiest of excuses. While other windmills are built to provide experimentally free electrical power, others like this old Fairbanks Morse Steel Eclipse west of Salida have given up their previous roles as pum- pers of water.

Energy Outlets Are As Many As The People Outlets for energy pent up during long weeks of school or work are varied here. Some seek the noise, excite- ment and confusion of an ath- letic event. Others find release in a cup of coffee with a friend, but some afternoons - espe- cially Fridays - a few students cannot contain themselves resulting in at least one hat atop the street sign across from the school. Alone with nature beside a partially frozen brook in hills surrounding town is where some students find their release early in the spring. Persons with more artistic natures enjoy the form and tex- ture of things such as rustic cedar fence posts which bristle with nails and boast of real individuality. 124 Salida New Car Dealers Association Stallsworth Motor Co Arcy Motors |4 Chevrole Monarch D SC THEfj NATIONAL BANK opXalida I ft 1 M liof IM ™ H,A T or THI «■■• J 4 P T«IIT IALIOA.

This section portrays some of these people. 127 Administration Contemplates Annexations With a two-room addition to Longfellow Elementary School completed last sum- mer, District R-32-J admin- istrators started planning for annexes to enlarge teaching facilities at the high school and at Kesner Junior High School. When voters in the district defeated a $2.2 million bond issue last spring, board and school leaders sought other plans to help eliminate over- crowding . At the high school, the board approved in January a $26,000 storage shed to be added to the south end of Andreas Field House. The storage building will provide room for unused athletic equipment when a particular sport is not in season. IT TOOK SEVERAL conferences per week between Administrative Assistant William Webb, Superintendent Charles Melien, and Secretary Anabel Lamberg (above) to deal with state and federal paperwork, decreasing enrollment problems, and generally tight money. 128 Still on the drawing boards last spring was an addition to Kesner Junior High which, when completed, will connect the 55-year-old building with the present high school building. Cost then was estimated at about $300,000 which would include both building and fur- nishings . The addition as planned will provide classroom space for jun- ior high home economics and science laboratories. The new section will match architecture of the present high school build- ing, and will include a breeze- way through which students will enter the present open plaza area. The passage between the two buildings will be walled with glass according to plans submitted by architects. The present system of stairs from the parking lot curb to the entry level of the high school and junior high would be elimi- nated and will be replaced with a ramp as is required by state law. Representatives of the archi- tectural firm of Nixon, Brown, Brokaw, and Bowen, of Boulder, met many times with adminis- trators and staff to help deter- mine construction details and other information.

Teachers Remain With The Basics Teachers here, as in all schools, formed the basis for education. Contrary to metro- politan school districts, there were no strikes, and classes went smoothly throughout the year with no large teacher turn- over. Only 5 new faces started the year. Return to the Basics seemed to be the theme, but administrators and staff agreed, Salida had never left the basics. 1 Aikkkkkkkkk kiik Barbara Adams General. Consumer Math.

In Tenderfoot interviews with 5 candidates for 2 County Com- mission seats, hopefuls unani- mously urged 18-year-old political participation in an unprecidented local bid for stu- dent vote. A few weeks earlier, propagandists from the Colorado Resource Committee urged upperclassmen to defeat Amendment 8 which would have placed mandatory deposits on all carbonated drink con- tainers. Students did not hear opposition views because none requested time. A straw vote on election day showed the presen- tation was effective with about 98% who listened, agaist the issue. Aileen Gregg Memorial Scholarship for any kind of edu- cation after graduation was established by her husband, Gilbert Gregg, former editor and publisher of the Chaffee County Republican. A $10,000 trust fund will provide a perpet- ual, annual education fund of about $750.

Frosh Initiation Traditional Freshman Initia- tion was held Sept. 16, 17, and the torture got exceptionally sticky this year. Almost every senior had a can of whipped cream or a jar of baby food in hand when near the initiates. Thursday, all the freshmen dressed according to their master’s whims and at noon, seniors and slaves gath- ered on the corner of 18th and D streets to hold the annual tricy- cle and peanut races. Usually on Friday frosh dress nicely, but this year the code was changed to include any- thing from dresses and pants to pajamas and underwear. The Welcome Dance was held Sept. 11. V COSTUMES WERE VARIED and garish as Ann Sparling, slave of Nancy Comer, far left, joined crowds of ordering seniors and singing freshmen. Jackie Rogers was often on her knees, left, pay- ing homage to senior master Anna Archuletta. Bob Willcox showed up in a frilly dance costume and senior Kelly Williams held up his arms to show it off. 3. 4 Juaior MM In Runner-Up. MIKE HOLLENBECK. Sn M. VESTA MAUI HOULE. Pep Clnb.

Council, NHS Expand Leadership And Scholarship Student Council and National Honor Society (NHS) are organ- izations whose members are required to exhibit outstanding leadership and scholarship abil- ities . STUDENT COUNCIL spear- headed a new Social Center about mid-year. This action is in response to a problem which arose this year when students started socializing in the library rather than studying. In addi- tion Council sponsors Freshman Welcome Dance, Homecom- ing, Winter Sports Dance and Teacher Appreciation Day. Council strives for better stu- dent-teacher-administration relationships and better town- school relationships. NHS meets every third Thurs- day for business and a program, usually done by outside speak- ers. Members planned money- making projects for the spring, funds from which will be used for field trips and speakers. Junior members in NHS must have a 3.25 grade point average or better. To be eligible, sen- iors must maintain a 3.0 aver- age or better. Other character- istics required of NHS members are good citizenship, scholar- ship , leadership, and service.

Special Interest Groups Strive For Cbmpetence Vocational and Industrial Clubs of America (VICA), Debate team, and Future Busi- ness Leaders of America (FBLA) are organizations which prepare students for special areas of life and each group gives members insight into its particular field. VICA prepares leadership in vocational students and helps them set career goals. Members take trips to CF I Steel Corpo- ration in Pueblo and to Climax Molybedenum Company in Lake County to observe operation and working conditions at the plants. The Club went to NORAD and to Martin-Marietta plant, both near Colorado Springs. VICA sponsors several money making projects each year including cutting and sell- ing firewood, and selling pop- corn at basketball games and wrestling matches. Debate allows students to learn to argue in a logical, responsible manner. Debate also trains individuals in for- mal, public speaking. Debators claim that a further asset is the gaining of an ability to think clearly in formal situations or in simple every day conversation. FBLA primarily develops competent, aggressive business leadership and creates more understanding of business occu- pations. Among annual projects are the Homecoming float. Fall Leaderhip conference, Commu- nity Service Project, basketball and wrestling program Produc- tions, and District and State competitions. 153 Experience Acquired By Members Of Specific Groups TENDERFOOT, the student newspaper, is the product of the Newspaper Journalism class. The purpose of the publication is to give practical experience in writing, editing, photogra- phy, make-up, financing, and production of printed news. Work is arranged as a business rather than as a formal class. In five years the paper has grown from a mimiographed sheet to a top national and state award winning publication. SCIENCE CLUB is designed to complement the experiences offered in science classes. Through the activities of this club, the members are intro- duced to the pleasurable aspects of science. They develop lead- ership abilities, gain skill in presenting and evaluating dif- ferent points of view, and explore interests and talents that may lead to future voca- tions or avocations. Students with particular interests in sci- ence can be provided opportuni- ties to conduct special activi- ties. DRAMA CLUB presents a vari- ety of plays, this year including Animal Farm by George Orwell, Once Upon A Play- ground, The Witch With The Golden Hat, A Christmas Tree, and An American Christmas. The Club attended various work shops, including one at Smokey Hills High School this year.

Le Resume promotes under- standing and communication between schools while Spanish and French Clubs promote understanding of countries. LE RESUME’, the yearbook, was published as a separate Yearbook Journalism class this year. In spite of receiving state and national first place awards last year, the staff this year was hampered by fewer book sales and a difficult advertising mar- ket. These facts, coupled with the rising costs of printing and darkroom supplies, required that the 1977 book be stripped of all but a few ’’extras. ' SPANISH CLUB planned many projects designed to get mem- bers more involved in the group. They had programs at meetings including a talk about Mexico by Ignacio Durazo, an exchange student from there and films on Mexican culture and geography. The club had money making projects includ- ing selling pens sporting the boys’ varsity basketball sched- ule. FRENCH CLUB studies cus- toms and culture of France and other French speaking coun- tries. Funds from several money making projects are used to sponsor two parties, one dance, and the annual French Club pic- nic. Each member has had at least one year of high school French.

GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL ended its second year at Salida High with 2 wins, 7 losses for the varsity and 5 wins, 3 losses for Jr. Varsity. The varsity team, coached by Patrica Gilbert, underwent changes in team membership. Due to the discon- tinuance of two varsity players, several Jr. Varsity members were promoted to varsity. Volleyball was open to all girls who like sports but didn't go out for girls gymnastics. CROSS COUNTRY was under new leadership. Wilson Buta- can, a new instructor at Salida High, undertook the coaching of the squad. A! Top kneeling, Kathy Molasky, Pam Roybal. Nancy Siefker, Patricia Willi, Margaret Coan. Standing.

The boys played two games, one at Canon City and one at Salida. Only one member had previous experience playing in competition. Seve- nteen boys played during the 6 week season. 167 Two Elections Spur More Political Interest Students here were more interested in politics this year as they discussed election stories in Tenderfoot Times which dealt with the School Board election May 3 and the Country Commission race Nov. 2. School incumbents Mrs. Elsie Stallsworth, Rev. A1 Edlund, Glenn Everett, and Ray Persch- bacher were opposed by Marilyn McQueen, Robert Barnes, Paul Whitson, Edward Shlatter, and Walt Sneddon. Earlier, five candidates vied for 2 County Commission chairs and incumbents Krocesky of Buena Vista and Holman of Salida were successful. Students noted that for the first time they were aware of, candidates addressed themselves to topics which concern young people, in addition to old stand-bys dusted off yearly for adults. PATTI LAMBERG. REPORTER for ihe Tender- fool Times, interviewed Phil Smith. (I-Dist. 1) and four other hopefuls. Later in the year. Miss Lamberg teamed up with Annette Vigil to ques- tion nine candidates for school board chairs. Presbyterian Church this page; Methodist Church opposite. Butchej Market 946 E.

Nineteen hundred and sev- enty-seven, Colorado's first bicentennial year, is a year of progress; a year of concern for a severe water shortage and an energy crisis. It is a year of great people, nationally and locally. I would now like to recognize some of these local people. First, Ron Snyder of Snyder Portraits. Carl Hasslebrink and the Mountain Mail who donated dance and team photographs to Le Resume. Tina Giles and Eve- lyn Renny, High School offic secretaries. Don Griffin, Taylc Publishing Company represents tive. Special thanks to our advei tisers without whom the boo would be nonexistant. I would like to say a very spe cial thank you to Debbie Theo takatos, Jan Veltri, Roxann Marshall, Roxy Piper, Wend Maichel, and the third hou typing class who all gave houi of their time working on th book.
