These changes have allowed these students to exercise their own ca- pabilities and creativeness. In order to achieve this, many programs have been introduced or upgraded. The Communication Arts Department has set aside a small room for a writing lab. This lab is designed to aid students who wish to improve their writing skills. A department which now utilizes com- puters is the Foreign Language Depart ment. These computers are used by for- eign language students who want to im- prove their language vocabulary. The computer programs include many games which require a knowledge of a foreign language in order to play. Two other improvements outside of the classroom include the modernizing of our library and the creation of the ca- reer resource center. The guidance de- partment has expanded to include an en- tire career resource center for students who seek information about colleges or careers. It contains a computer terminal, films, books and college literature. The present library, which had once been the cafeteria, contains more than just books. It has a computer and a vast amount of microfilm designed to help students re- search virtually any subject they might choose. It also has records and a lounge area for students who want to take a break from their school work. A recent improvement in the Creative Living Department is the creation of a restaurant run by the quanity food stu- dents. They serve a variety of foods to faculty members who want a change from cafeteria food. These major changes, plus the small modifications which have taken place unnoticed, are what will always keep Shikellamy first class in the years to come.

Theme 3 Shikellamy recalls its roots In early September of 1965. two dis- tinct groups of students — students which were formerly intense rivals in practically every aspect — entered the newly formed Shikellamy High School. These students had to put aside their former alma maters and form a new alli- ance. Although there were many obsta cles to overcome, the students of Shikel- lamy made their inaugural year a suc- cessful experience. The most memorable experience from the first year of Shikellamy was the championships won by the Shikellamy Braves football team. Under the guid- ance of head coach Richard Purnell, the newly formed Braves initiated the name Shikellamy in such a manner that it would be honored from that year for- ward. The Braves accumulated an incredi- ble record of 10 0 and won three cham- pionships their first year. The 1965 SVL title was secured when they crushed Bloomsburg. 42-13. The following week the Braves beat the Tornadoes of Mt. Carmel. 19-13 and won the Southern Di- vision. Eastern Conference title. Finally, in post season action, the Braves were victorious in their efforts against Blakely High School and won the Eastern Con ference Championship. The 1965 football team had given the new school an unforgettable season. The Braves' undefeated, untied season was the best possible way to start the new high school s athletic history. The newly formed Shikellamy band was under the direction of Mr. Charles Coleman. Bravettes were added to give color and grace to the marching band. The marching band performed at foot- ball games and various parades through- out the year. The concert band present- ed winter and spring concerts. There were also small groups, such as a dance band, a woodwind quintet, and a brass choir, established for individually talent ed musicans. Later that school year the Shikellamy Band hosted District Band, a gathering of the areas most talented musicians. Several Shikellamy students performed with this group of elite musicians and later with the Susquehanna Valley Band. In May of the school year the junior class hosted the Junior-Senior Prom. The theme of the prom was Roman Gar- den. It was one of the most exciting events of the year. exclaimed Cindy Shumaker Reitz, the secretary of the class of 1966. After a difficult year of adjusting to the merged school district, many of the first graduating class of Shikellamy con- tinued this acquired harmony as citizens within the communities. 4 Theme The new Shikellamy Braves football team won the 1965 Eastern Con ference Championship.

Braves change with the times The Indoor Colour Garde, one of the newest band activities at Shikellamy, started in 1981 with a small group of ambitious students ready to give one hundred percent. Their determination paid off, for in their first year they were undefeated in the Gold Division and have since gone on to win several State Cham- pionships. Not content to stop there, they continue to work long hours to be- come the best possible. With the addition of new activities and sports the need arose for a new facility to replace the small out-dated gymnasium. To accomodate the growing needs of the students, the Shikellamy Field House was built. In addition to the expanding building came new ideas and important social changes. People began to think more lib erally and were likely to accept changes. Our girls softball team is one example of change. Young people tend to take girls’ sports for granted because it never crossed our minds that just 20 years ago there were no interscholastic sports for high school girls. Cheering from the side lines was the closest Shikellamy females had ever gotten to any actual involve- ment in a game. A second liberal move was the start- ing of coeducational gym classes. In the 1960 s the only time girls and boys par- ticipated together in gym classes was for an occasional “dance lesson. Now, however, girls and boys playing tennis or lifting weights together in gym class is a common occurrence. Another change occurring through the years is the relaxing of the school dress code. In 1965 girls were strictly forbidden to wear slacks or jeans to school; concurrently, boys hair had to be cut short and mustaches or beards were prohibited. Today, however, it is not un- usual to see any of these trends dis played in school. Shikellamy has both expanded and changed considerably since 1965. What changes will occur in the next 20 years? Only time will tell. But the attitude of becoming the best and striving for high goals will always be evident at Shikel- lamy. Indoor Colour Garde had a championship season. Row I: W. Wiant. Inst.

Remember when ♦ ♦ ♦ Middle school was the place where we made the transition from being ‘'kids'’ to being “high school students.” It was a time when we could just let go and have fun with school. Nobody expected us to be ultra-mature, and it was overlooked when we occasionally acted like 4th graders. In middle school we changed gradually into young adults. This change took time but we did have three long years. In 6th grade our first big dance ap- proached and everyone was scared in- side. Afterwards we wondered what war- rented such a fright when we realized we were there for a good time like everyone else. We adapted slowly to the cafeteria routine in our 7th grade year. It went from juke box and food fights into as- signed seats and complete silence — slowly was the only way we could ad- just. We muddled through with the thought that our 8th grade year we would be top dogs! Our 8th grade year came and it was perhaps our hardest in middle school. We did enjoy being on top and not being called names in the halls. But we had to realize one very important fact. It would be four long years until we could “flex our muscles again, because being a freshman is just as bad as being a 6th grader. Why it Cheryl Brosious rooting in Dan Bottinger's hair?

Theme 9 Seniors pull together Within the past four years, the class of 1985 has evolved from a quiet and disor- ganized group of individuals to a single, united body which is not afraid to let its voice be heard. One of the more evident examples of this change is our enthusi- astic participation in pep assemblies. Our first freshman assembly was a total disaster. While every other class jumped and yelled their hearts out in an attempt to win the coveted “spirit stick, we sat in pitiful silence when our cue was given. However, in time we grew bolder, and by our junior year we practically “‘owned’’ the field house during assemblies. We won the Selinsgrove Pep Assembly tug- of-war our final two years. Our aggresiveness was not known only during pep assemblies however, and neither was our voice. Our prom was a surprising success, despite ru- mors to the contrary. We also were given our senior privileges even though every one expected them to be taken from us. These privileges, which had before been taken for granted, now had to be earned by maintaining at least a C average. To insure that our voice would continue to be heard by the administration, An- drea Morroni was placed on the school board to represent us as a non-voting member. Hopefully, after graduation we can face the future with this same diligence and optimism which has enabled us to ... Come A Long Way.

Theme 11 Class of '85 has come a long way We entered high school in September, 1981. As little freshman we were very insecure of what the future had in store for us. We were introduced to our class advisors, Mr. Murray and Mr. Balonis, who helped us accomplish our first task, which was to elect our first class offi- cers. President Daphne Ferster, Vice President Denise Shirk, Secretary An drea Morroni, Treasurer Georgette Brown, and Historian Jon Tishler. We quickly were on our way con- structing a float for homecoming. We were the last class to participate in this tradition because of the cost and work involved in creating a float. Our fresh- man homecoming representitive was Daphne Ferster, escorted by Joe Oshetski. We had two fund raisers our first year. In the fall we sold items suitable for Christmas gifts and in the spring we sold M M's and Dots. As freshmen we didn't have much choice concerning our schedules. We survived classes like freshman language and writing, civics, western hemisphere, biology and typing. We ended our first year in high school the same way we had started, with the selection of our new officers. A seeming- ly vicious circle was ended with the elec- tion of our next set of capable leaders; President Dave Woodring, Vice Presi- dent Cherie Groce, Secretary Andrea Morroni, Treasurer Connie Badman. and Historian Georgette Brown. As sophomores we had a little more confidence as we took our first step up the totem pole to somewhat enjoy high school life. Our sophomore homecom- ing representitive was Andrea Morroni, escorted by Matt Frick. We had three ways of building up our treasury this year. Our dying attempt was made through our marketing of Christmas wrap, recipe books and sta tionary. Thanks to the hungry fans who Historian Cherie Groce records the history of the past four years. frequented our candy stands at home basketball and wrestling matches we made a pretty good profit , according to Mr. Balonis. Once again in the spring we sold the best sellers. M G M's and Dots. As sophomores we were required to take such classes as writing, driver edu- cation. and American history. At the conclusion of the year we elected new junior class officers and were to be lead by President Rich Shoch, Vice President Matt Brouse. Secretary Cindy Hoven- stine. Treasurer Connie Badman and His- torian Georgette Brown. We had worked our way up to second in command and elected Lisa Herb as our homecoming representitive to be es corted by Bill Purnell. Our only source of income our junior year was the large profit we had made at the junior class concession stand at the football field. A new mandate required our taking a class entitled Looking to the Future along with the school requiring, practi- cal economics and health. Our major concern was The Things Dreams are Made Of, the Junior-Senior prom. Long remembered will be the rain- bow of balloons and the 3-D castle ruled by King Don Hoffman and Queen Sue Mahoney, each crowned by Rich Shoch. With confidence and pride we began to receive recognition for the abilities and talents we possessed. We had as- sured everyone that we were finally pre- pared to take over as seniors. We moved into our senior year with Rich Shoch as President, Joe Burke as Vice President. Lynette Meckley as Sec retary, Steve Harrell Treasurer, and Cherie Groce Historian. We had survived the required course syndrome and took the electives we wanted as seniors and now had senior privileges as our reward. We have excelled in all our activities, which shall long be remembered. These past four years have been filled with many happy times as well as sad, with the loss of class members. Both have given us many experiences which will help us to develop. As our years at Shikellamy quickly come to an end. we have realized that a solid foundation has been established on which we will be able to achieve our goals. We shall always cherish these memories as we leave behind friends and school and move on. It is not an end but rather a beginning to our future. Perhaps now we should reflect on the advise expressed in the poem written by Laine Parsons, Don't Ever”. Best of luck to everyone in the class of '85. Take care and may God bless you. Cherie Groce — Historian “Don't Ever Don’t ever try to understand everything — Some things will just never make sense. Don't ever be reluctant to show your feelings — When you're happy give into it! When you're not, live with it. Don't ever be afraid to try to make things better — You might be surprised at the results. Don't ever take the weight of the world on your shoulders. Don't ever feel threatened by the future — Take life one day at a time. Don't ever feel guilty about the past — What’s done is done. Learn from any mistakes you may have made. Don't ever feel that you are alone ... there is always someone there for you to reach out to. Don't ever forget that you can achieve so many of the things you can imagine. Imagine that! It’s not as hard as it seems. Don’t ever stop loving, Don't ever stop believing, Don't ever stop dreaming your dreams.

Class History 13 14 Theme Graduates look to the future Twenty years ago, students from Northumberland High School and Sun- bury High School came together for the first time to create what was to be called the Shikellamy High School. Northumberland and Sunbury had been traditionally rival schools, and bringing them together made school spirit and unity of the student body an almost impossible goal. The students had to learn to work together before the building they now shared could truly be- come a school. The Shikellamy Brave emblem was designed to replace the Sunbury Owl and the Northumberland Pine Tree. The The Shikellamy High School class of 1966 forged the way for future Shikellamy graduates. Diplomas in hand. 1966 Shikellamy graduates. John Michaels and Helen Lower plan to face the future together. As we approach the end of our long road to graduation, we can look back at our experiences, both good and bad. and know that we have learned from them. The time is drawing near when we must leave the beaten path, and use the knowledge we have gained to find our own path to the future. We've Come A Long Way . . But We Still Have A Long Way To Go. class of ’66 was forced with the task of selecting the new school colors; blue, maroon, white; to replace the two old sets of colors; blue and white, and ma- roon and white. At this same time a new Alma Mater was created. Many of the traditions which are taken for granted were the product of their hard work and active imaginations. And so. for their devotion, perserver- ance, and tremendous spirit, we. the class of 1985. with this twentieth anni- versary edition of The Profile 85, wish to honor the ‘ pioneers’’ of the Shikellamy High School, the class of 1966.

Most students have a particular area in which they excel; however, some stu- dents have taken their talents to the highest echelons possible. Tony Reed achieved the highest pla teau in his high school wrestling career when he won the State Championship in 1984. Academic achievement is exem- plified by Dave Hilsher. He attended the Pennsylvania Governors School for Sci- ences during the summer before his sen- ior year. These are only two of the many talent- ed students who attend Shikellamy.

Dave Hilsher is an outstanding science student People 17 Guidelines set for senior privileges This year for the first time, Shikellamy’s seniors had to follow a strict set of guidelines in order to keep their senior privileges. These privileges consist of open lunch and early dismissal from school for seniors. In previous years senior privileges were re- garded as a right which seniors were entitled to after having completed three years as underclassmen. However, the admin- istration felt that seniors had been abusing their privileges, so in order to correct this, they have required all seniors to maintain certain minimum standards if they wish to enjoy their senior privileges. Many seniors have lost their privileges because they have failed to maintain at least a 2.0 grade point average. Still more seniors have had their privileges revoked as the result of being late for school four times in a school year, or missing six days of school during the year. Seniors can lose their privileges because of unsatisfactory deportment during lunch time and eighth peri- od. After a senior has lost his privileges, he may appeal to a committee in an attempt to have them reinstated. This commit- tee consists of two administrators, two students, and one facul- ty member. Many seniors have regained their privileges through this appeal system, however, many have not. In the case of students who have failed to have their privileges reinstated they face the disappointment of losing much of their freedom, and may have helped to pave the way for a complete dismissal of privileges for future classes.

Since 1967 the organization of Who's Who Among American High School Students has been committed to celebrating out- standing students for their positive achievements in academic, athletic, school and community service. Students from 22,000 public, private, and parochial high schools across the nation are eligible to qualify. A Who's Who Committee of distinguished educators review the applicants. Those students who comply with the organization's standards are rewarded with their picture and biography in the annual edition of Who's Who. The organization also gives fifty, one thousand dollar scholarships that these students will have a chance to receive. Shikellamy is proud to have several meritorious students included in the 1983 1984 edition of Who’s Who Among Ameri- can High School Students. They are as follows: James Conrad.

Rice Middle School for the remainder of the school day. Mrs. Norris, a phys- ical education teacher; Mrs. Seiger. a practical algebra and 9th grade general math teacher; and Mr. Howard, a western hemi- sphere geography and American history teacher; all teach part of the day at Shikellamy High School. Teaching at the high school is a new experience for Mrs. Norris. She has been teaching for 16 years, but this is her first year teaching in high school. By teaching at the high school she has a chance to form new friendships. Mrs. Norris stated she doesn’t mind travelling between the two schools; but when there are delays or schedule changes, it makes arriving on time difficult.” Both Mrs. Seiger and Mr. Howard are teaching at the high school because there is a large 9th grade class, and they have secondary certifications in their departments. When there are special schedules at the high school, it makes it rough on these teachers because they can't be at two places at the same time. When asked about teaching at two different schools. Mrs. Seiger stated she would prefer not to teach at different schools but I don’t mind;” and Mr. Howard stated. I don’t really mind. Mr. Howard looks over the notes for his American history class. 24 Seniors Lonnie Bickel, Kim Fulmer and Sherri Senoski take advantage of the warm weather by reading their scripts outside Seniors 25 Concentration showing on her face.

Robert, who scored his perfect 800 in the verbal section of the test, also had a 720 in the math section. Although he didn't do a lot of studying in preparation for the test. Robert did review some computer software which dealt with the SAT. Robert is active in football and forensics and says his favorite classes are A.P. history. French, and German. He also organized the Bloodmobile which was held in the field house this fall. After graduation, he plans to attend Princeton and persue a career in International Relations.

Mrs. Stettler, whose husband is also employed by the district, started as a cook in Shikellamy s Oaklyn building in 1953. In 1960 she resigned that position, but later returned to the district in 1964 as the head cook of the Sunbury Middle School. After eleven years at the post, she applied for the job of Food Service Director. As Food Service Director. Mrs. Stettler has many people depending on her and many duties to fulfill. Some of these duties include recommending employees for hiring and firing, making up all the lunch menus, and doing all the food buying except for milk and bread. Once a week Mrs. Stettler receives orders from all the head cooks which she must fill, and at the end of each week the food bills are sent to her for inspection. Mrs. Settler must keep a daily record of the number of lunches served. She says that she tries to go with the fast food trend, which students like, to keep up the percentage of lunch- buying students. The percentage is presently between seventy and seventy-two percent. There are ten schools in the district with lunch programs, and Mrs. Stettler tries to visit each of them at least once a week. The Shikellamy School District will have a hard time filling the shoes of Mrs. Stettler next year. Her experience will be missed by food service personnel as well as the students of the district.

The two-week camp, was a learning exper- ience for Pennsylvania students who showed academic ability and competence in the field of conservational science. The areas studied included water soil conservation, wildlife man- agement. pollution of the environment, and sewage treatment. At the conclusion of the camp a mock public hearing was held to reveal what had been learned and how the students felt about conservation. “It was very interesting and fun. Not only did we learn about government, but we learned about ourselves as well,” said Lon nie Bickel. one of this year's participants in Pennsylvania Key- stone Boys' State. Boys’ State is a week-long summer program sponsored by the Pennsylvania American Legion. While at Boys’ State, its partici- pants engaged in the study of our state government by actually campaigning for and holding elected offices. These offices range from mayor of a city to the state governor. The four participants from Shikellamy were Jerome Bowers, State Supreme Court Justice; Lonnie Bickel, Town Council- man: Philip Shuman. State Political Party Leader; and Ralph Walborn, State Representative. Jerry Bowers, Philip Shuman and Lonnie Bickel attended Keystone Boys' State the summer of 1984.

Adopt a Kid’ is a program created by Creative Living teach- er Mrs. Forsythe. For a few years Mrs. Forsythe has obtained names of needy children from the Salvation Army. At Christ mas time she asked the faculty if they would buy gifts for these needy children of the community. This year there were 150 children to adopt'. As a result Miss Albright suggested asking the student body if they would participate in the program and buy presents for the children. There was an overwhelming re- sponse to adopt'' these youngsters, newborns to six years of age. Every one of the 150 children was adopted.

The football gam against Pottsville was followed by the annual Homecominc dance Friday evening. Student Council prepares school for Homecoming Seniors 33 A new plan was put into effect in December by the Shikel- lamy School Board to encourage Shikellamy High School stu- dents to strive for better grades. Students must maintain at least a ‘C” average to participate in extracurricular activities. If pupils involved in these activities do not keep a 2.0 grade point average, on a scale of 4.0, they must participate in a tutorial assistance program after school to improve their grades. The parents of these students are notified of the addi- tional aid. Those not involved in any extracurricular activities are also encouraged to attend the program for extra help if needed. Superintendent Earl Horton said 307 of 1,337 Shikellamy High School students fell below the C average the first mark- ing period. 104 of these pupils needed to be tutored to continue extracurricular activities. Because many students participate in clubs, plays, sports and other school activities, it is hoped that this policy will motivate students to maintain a “C” or better average in all subjects.

Christmas is an exceptionally busy time in the foreign lanugage department. French classes re-enact some of the original Christmas tradi tions of France. A chocolate cake with cream filling, called 'la bushe de Noel, designed to resemble a yule log, is baked. Original- ly, a log was kept burning in the fireplace on Christmas Eve to bring good luck to the family. The students also made thirteen desserts, which is a custom in Southern France for the Christmas meal. The desserts, which include nuts and fruits, symbolize Christ and his twelve disciples. The French believe this, too, brings good luck for the coming year. Other French classes baked and tasted traditional French cookies, designed cards, and practiced French carols. To prepare for Epiphany on January 6, French students baked a ’ Cake of Kings” to represent the three wiseman. A figurine or dried bean placed inside the cake brought good luck to its finder. This person was crowned king or queen of the party. Similarly, German classes participated in Christmas activities of Germany. The fact that many of our American Christmas tradi- tions originated in Germany is emphasized to pupils studying Ger- man. The Christmas tree, sending of seasonal greeting cards, and hanging of stockings are some of the customs discussed. On De- cember 6. which is the German Saint Nicholas Day”. Saint Nicho- las himself came to German classes delivering gifts. The second week of December the German Club held a Christmas Bake Sale. The classes baked and shared original cookie recipes, such as “Heidensand” and Zinnt Sterne.” Students acted out holiday skits and made German Christmas plates, as well as exchanged gifts and sang German carols. Two seasonal celebrations, Weih- nachtsfest” and 'Driekonigstag' , were explained to students. In addition. Spanish students celebrated the season with the original customs of Spain. These students also sang Christmas carols and made cards. The Spanish Club had a Christmas party complete with a 'pinata”, which is a hollow papier-mache figure filled with candy. The blindfolded club members got to swing at the pinata” with a stick until it was broken and the candy spilled. They ate Spanish pastries filled with fruit, Christmas cakes, and punch. Through all those various activities, students from the language classes and clubs learn the different ways that other countries and people observe the holidays of December. French class members enjoy a sampling of French desserts at the Christ mas cultural experience. A Spanish Class student swings at the piflata in an attempt to break it open and retrieve the candy.

In 1984 senior Dave Hilscher attended the P.A. Governor s School of Sciences for five weeks at Carnegie-Mellon University. Dave stated of his summer activities, “It was a unique exper ience. It mixed lessons in science with lessons in college dorm living.” Dave was involved in various projects including one in a chemistry lab. He said, “The chem lab project involved the recently discovered iron compound, ferocene. We worked with an infrared spectroscopy machine. Each person was involved in a team project. I was in the soil analysis group. We obtained and analyzed samples from various places in Pennsylvania. Some of the subjects Dave studied at Governor's School were organic chemistry, molecular biology and nuclear chemistry. Dave said the Governor's School also provided the students with opportunities to attend lectures at Carnegie-Mellon CJniver sity. Among the speakers was the head of Penn State’s Nuclear Engineering Program. Spending the summer at a university to study science might not be everyone's idea of a fun vacation, but Dave Hilscher apparently thought so.

The class of '85 is fortunate to have two pairs of twins, Mike and Missy Keeley and Connie and Carol Walz. What is it like being a twin? Missy Keeley said: “The only bad thing about being a twin is that in elementary and middle school we were always together. We couldn't get away from each other at school. However, it was kind of nice on the first day of kindergarten, having someone to be with you that you knew. Mike Keeley responded. “Being a twin has its advantages and its disadvantages. You know that there is always someone around to talk to and that you're never alone. Also, having almost the same classes, either of us can go to the other for help. The major disadvantage is that we are around each other so much. It's nice to get away from each other because, after so long, it's easy to get on each other's nerves. As with most brothers and sisters, many fights break out. Thankfully, most are short-lived! Overall, I think being a twin is an advantage. Mike and Missy seemed to like being twins, but Carol Walz didn't like the situation at all. She said. “I don't like it because people seem to look at us like they are seeing double. I also don't like it when we dress the same. Alice B Pornel Heather E. Prior William Purnell Kevin E.

Trips-out west to the Fiesta Bowl, state championships and professional football games-are just a few of the band activities. But the band didn’t do it alone. The band owes much of its success to a group of dedicated parents, the Band Parent Association. According to Mr. Schnader. band director, “Without the band parents, the organization could not raise the majority of the money for band camp and the training staff. They're super people to work with and to know. They’re willing to help and are very enthusiastic in support of their sons and daughters. The Band Parent Association officers include: President. Ter ry Kauffman; Vice President. Charlie Attinger; Treasurer. Bob Barnasconi; and Secretary. Delores Beny. They, along with oth- er exceptionally dedicated parents, run various activities. The hotdog wagon at the Sunbury Plaza, the band stand at football games, the calvacade and chicken bar-b-ques are all fund raisers the band parents run. The beautiful new uniforms and colorful flags this year were all sewn by band parent mothers. Repairing equipment and chaperoning football games and competitions are also handled by the band parent volunteers. These projects and numerous other jobs are just the tip of the iceberg ” of what these caring people do for the band. If a pin or bandage is needed at a performance, they are there with a cheerful smile and just what is needed. At competitions the band parents transform into the March- ing Brave’s cheering section. They’re out there rooting for their children, as well as the group. Mo matter what the weather, cold, wet or snowy, these faithful fans fill the bleachers to cheer for the band. They follow the unit everywhere with encouraging banners and signs. They even followed the band out West, either by being along on the trip or by getting information through the media. The Marching Braves have come a long way in twenty years. Without the Band Parents Association the band might not have gotten this far. In the body of the band, the band parents are the heart. The flashy new look of the band was made possible by the hard work of the band mothers, who sewed the new uniforms. The dedicated band parents endured the heat of August band camp to give added support and aid to the band members and staff. Shik team wins College Bowl Competition Shikellamy High School started off another activity on the right foot with the conception of its first College Bowl team. The squad competed against other squads on an academic platform including questions from electronics to classical music. The team, which consisted of two seniors and two juniors, defeated teams from eleven other area high schools to capture the cham- pionship in Bloomsburg University’s second annual High School Bowl. Members of the winning squad were Ron Comfort. Jonathan Weis, John Deppen, Bob Neitz, and team alternate Kevin Knoe- bel. Communication Arts teacher. Mr. Gallagher, served as the faculty advisor. In winning the championship. Shikellamy received $250 of computer equipment and a $ 1000 scholarship to be used by any of the team members wishing to attend Bloomsburg. The team decided on the type of computer equipment to be purchased, considering the needs of the high school students. Representa tives of the college also came to Shikellamy to award plaques to each team member and a team trophy, which was presented to the school. The squad won the championship by defeating Bishop Hafey of Hazelton by a score of 135 to 120. It wouldn't have been such a cliffhanger if we could have buzzed in on the toss-up questions a little faster. said senior Ron Comfort. There was a pivotal question that I knew but froze a little because I guess the championship round made me a little nervous. During the competition, based on the old College Bowl television program, teams that correctly answered 10-point toss-up questions were given a chance to answer “bonus questions. The bonus questions, on which the whole team could confer, were worth 20-30 points. In the quarter-finals. Shikellamy defeated Benton High School 215 to 20. The 215 points was the highest score of the competi- tion. I was proud of what these young men accomplished. said Mr. Gallagher. We showed that Shikellamy has academic and scholastic accomplishments to match its excellence in sports. These guys worked very hard preparing for the College Bowl and each of them answered some incredibly difficult ques- tions throughout the competition. Kevin L. Sheesley Diana M.

Things here are bigger than in Finland, but I still like it. Those are the words of Jari Hiltunen, this year's Rotary Foreign Exchange Student from Finland. Jari is in many ways a typical 17 year old. not very different from American 17 year olds. He enjoys sailing, girls, and computers. Upon his arrival in Sunbury. and here at Shikellamy, Jari was greeted with much enthusiasm and interest, while generating the same towards the stu- dents here. His first host family was the family of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Walsh of Sunbury. Jari stated of the Walsh's, They were very nice, and I enjoyed my time spent with them. During the first part of the year Jari could be found with his many new friends, and involved in extracurricular activities, while also keeping up with his schoolwork, and making the honor roll. Jari says of Shikellamy, School here is easier than school at home, not much, but it is still easier. As for extracurricu- Jari Hiltunen poses with his fan club: V Phillips. A Mordan. M. Nilsen. S.

He does involve himself in the social side of life here in the area. He can often be found frequenting the sock hops held at Sunset Skating Rink, or just hanging out with his new friends. Of the people here, Jari has concluded. They are very nice to me. They treat me a little differently. I get a lot of attention be cause of being from Finland. I like a lot of the kids I have met. and the girls here are better looking than those in Finland. Jari has come to our school to learn, but we learn as much from him as he does from us. Being a foreign exchange student is a great opportunity, said Jari. I really enjoy seeing how people from other countries live and work. It is a unique experience. Jari, who will remain in the U S. until July, will have many unique memories of America to take home with him to Finland. Jari works out a problem on his personal computer Jari enjoys sailing when he's at home in Finland 60 Foreign Exchange Student Shikellamy sends students abroad While in Germany. Jay Baylor surveys the beautiful mountains of Watzmann Cherie Groce, currently a Shikellamy senior, has recently spent 10 months in Manila, the Philippines, as a Rotary Ex change Student. She commented that her experiences as an exchange stu- dent were many, but I especially enjoyed the personal independence I was given.’’ As a result of her independence, Cherie is a more liberal person. While in the Philippines. Cherie lived with the Hechanova and Alvarez fam- ilies, who were members of the upper class of society. Cherie had to adjust to many new life styles while in Manila, some were good and some were bad. She enjoyed the maids, servants, country clubs, and the music. She especially liked their native singers. Martin Nievera and Gary Valenciano. Some of the things which Cherie didn't like were the cock- roaches. butiki (wall lizards), blackouts, monsoons, and powdered milk. Cherie attended a private Catholic co- ed school where she was required to wear a uniform daily. During the day the teachers, not the students, changed classes. Before and after every class a special prayer was said. Cherie attended this school as a senior; and therefore, is the only student at Shikellamy who will graduate twice from high school. Senior Jay Baylor was a foreign ex change student to Germany for approxi- mately three months. When asked to comment about being an exchange stu dent. Jay stated. Being an exchange student was a totally unique experience that is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I liked it because I had the opportunity to learn a little of the language and cus- toms of other people. However, the only thing I disliked about it was that I was an American. After Jay made the last comment, he further explained that he wasn’t ashamed of being an American, but rather disliked being stereotyped an American. The people in Germany con- sider Americans ignorant because they consider our school systems inferior to theirs. We also have an unfavorable reputation due to President Reagan's Eu- ropean policies. While in Germany. Jay lived with the Hartmann family. During Jay’s sopho- more year at Shikellamy his family had hosted the Hartmann's youngest son. During his stay in Germany. Jay attend ed a school for academic students called a Gynasium. Jay visited a lot of Europe while he was in Germany. He was also exposed to the culture and values of other nations. Because of his experiences as an ex change student. Jay has become a more open minded individual. Jay Baylor and Cherie Groce view pictures of their for eign exchange countries.

Upon our graduation from Shikellamy High School we will be greatly indebted to many people who, through their time, hard work, and patience, have made our last four years enjoyable and fulfilling. However, the person to whom we are most indebted is our faithful class advi sor. Mr. Murray. Mr. Murray, who took on the duty of a class advisor during his first year of teaching, said, “I found that being a class advisor involves much more work than I anticipated when I first agreed to do it.” He added I have had both pleas ant and unpleasant experiences while being an advisor, however. I don't be lieve I would consider doing it again. Peo- ple just don't realize how much time is required.” One of the most memorable exper iences for Mr. Murray was preparing for the prom. It was very draining but re- warding as well.” Because Mr. Murray is a shop teacher, he was a great asset to the prom’s decorating committee. For seven weeks a committee of a dozen stu- dents worked between 3:00 and 10:00 at night, preparing for the big night. From the feedback I received, it ap pears that our prom was one of the bet ter ones at Shikellamy. and that was my objective from the start. Without a doubt, the most rewarding experience in working on the prom was the opportuni- ty I had to work with a few individuals that have become more than just stu- dents to me. but very close friends.” Mr. Murray summarized his four year tenure as class advisor by stating. The diffi- cult times are ones that I have tried to forget, but the good ones I will cherish forever.” The class of '85 thanks you Mr. Mur ray for all the time and energy you have spent to make our high school years the best they could possibly be. and we wish for your future all the success and happi- ness that you so richly deserve! Senior class thanks Mr. Murray Mr Murray Class Advisor 65 District residents receive newsletter An eight page publication. “Brave News World was distributed to Shikel lamy School District residents. Mrs. Judy Newcomer and Mr. William Gal- lagher. a communication arts teacher, were the co ditors of the newsletter. Three issues of “Brave News World were distributed to area residents during the 1984 1985 school year. 13,000 issues of the newsletter were printed and 11,000 were mailed to homes throughout the district. Money for the project was budgeted by the school district. Mrs. Newcomer and Mr. Gallagher wrote the articles, typeset the material and laid out the pages using district equipment. Mr. Michael Roush, an art teacher, did the artwork for the publica- tion. The Daily Item did the printing, the only work not done by district employ- ees. The newsletter contained articles and photographs on a variety of subjects. Four pages were directed at specific grade levels, while the others provided general school information for residents who didn’t have children in school. Shikellamy School District produced the newsletter on a trial basis. “Conflu ence, another Shikellamy publication, was sent to 600 district personnel. This publication contained articles concern- ing teachers and students. School Board — Row I: R Kitchen. C Wolfberg. T Shipman Row 2: A. Morroni. W Hassinger. J. Balestrini. P. Ross. T Brostous.

These courses, super vised by the math department, include BASIC I and BASIC II. which teaches the programming language of BASIC (Begin- ners' All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) on Apple lie Microcomputers. Mr. Robert Messner, supervisor of the math department, reflected upon the progress being displayed by students in their selection of math courses. He feels a very positive change has occurred in the 20 years he has taught at Shikel- lamy. ‘The students are choosing the practical geometry and practical algebra courses, as opposed to the general math course.” stated Mr. Messner. Thus, in doing so, the students are exposed to a more worthwhile, indepth study of the subject. Next year the math department will see another change of progress. Seeing mathematics as an important subject, The required math credits will increase from two and one-half credits to three credits the 1985 86 school year.” ac cording to Mr. Messner. With the introduction of microcom- puters and the course selections being made by Shikellamy students, it is ap- parent that the math department has come a long way.

M Heintzelman Row 2: J Shaffer. D. Force. D Wynn. D Bordner Over the past twenty years Shikel- lamy has gone through many changes. The office staff, as well as the school, has come a long way. Secretary Ms. Rae Mitterling has been employed at Shikellamy since the school first formed. In 1966 Ms. Mitterling worked as a guidance secretary as well as handled the office switchboard. Although there was no attendance office, Grace Holdren was the attendance clerk. Also sharing the main office was Mrs. Ries. the princi- pal's secretary. Today. Ms. Mitterling, Dr. Messner's secretary; Mrs. Heintzelman. Mrs. Say lor's secretary; and Mrs. Force, faculty and administration's secretary; man the main office. The school now has an at tendance office staffed by Mrs. Shaffer and Mrs. Black. Mrs. Bordner and Mrs. Wynn work exclusively for the guidance department. The jobs the secretaries perform are more specialized today than in 1966. Ms. Mitterling commented. With the additional staff members and the office computers, the office work is much better organized today than in 1966.' M.Ed..

Many excel not only in their field of study but also as talented musicians. Shikellamy social studies teacher Mr. Newcomer, for example, entered the Pennsylvania Country Music Entertain- er of the Year competition. To be eligible for the contest. Mr. Newcomer taped four songs to be evaluated. From one hundred other contestants he was cho- sen as one of nine finalists to compete live on stage at Scottish Rite Auditorium in Williamsport, on Oct. 27, 1984. Mr. Newcomer sang. 'Help Me Make it Through the Night” and Td Love to Lay You Down,” for his live perfor- mance in the final state competition. Mr. Newcomer, who entered the con- test at the suggestion of a friend, said, “I was totally surprised because it was the first time I've done anything like that. Overall, being on stage, in the spotlight in front of an audience of 1200, was a whole new experience for me. I'm glad I had a chance to go through it. Following the competition was an hour concert by country singer Margo Smith. Afterward Mr. Newcomer attended a cocktail party where he met the other contestants, judges and President of the Country Music Association. Mr. Newcomer lectures to one of his history classes.

According to Mrs. Chivalette, Injun Inn supervisor, having the Quantity Foods Program is very important. Mrs. Chivalette said, “The purpose of the Quantity Foods Pro- gram is to make students employable. The jobs available in food services are overwhelming. The Quantity Foods Pro- gram prepares students for these oppor tunities. Shikellamy has had a Quantity Foods Program for about ten years. Mrs. Chiva lette stated that up until last year the quantity food students worked out of the high school cafeteria. Now the Quantity Foods classes have their own facility, the Injun Inn Restaurant. The “Injun Inn serves breakfast and lunch meals to dis- trict employees and also caters events such as P.T.A. meetings, Dinner The atre. Kiwanis. and Rotary club dinners.

One of these changes is the addition of a second class advisor, Mrs. Felix. With the help of Mrs. Felix, and previous class advisor. Mrs. Martz, the class of '86 is working to raise mon- ey for the prom. Another change for the class is that for the first time their fund raisers have been successful. Some of the items they have sold so far are. lollipops, date books, sausage, cheese and nuts. In the future they hope to sell posters, pizza and light bulbs. Mrs. Martz states, “With the money from these sales and the money collect- ed from the junior concession stand in the stadium, the class of '86 should be in good financial shape.” Junior Class Officers — Row f; M Zerbe.

P Campbell The Shikellamy Marching Braves have had a reputation of excellence throughout the state for many years. This reputation can be attributed to the dedication given to the band by its mem bers and staff Spawning from the marching band is a small group of stu dents who have taken this reputation even further. These students are the members of the Shikellamy Indoor Per cussion. The Indoor Percussion started in 1980 under the direction of Ric Colletti. The group won the K.I.D.A. State Champion ship that year by defeating Cedar Crest's drumline. Since then the drumline has been in and out of existence. But, this year they had a strong organization and competed at several K.I.D.A. competi tions The Indoor Colour Garde, also known Western World. has been around Indoor Percussion — Row 1; S. Rook. N.

They perform dur- ing the Christmas Concert and the Spring Choral Concert. Girls wishing to join the chorus must arrange a short audition with director Mr. James Reaser. The girls sold candles and candy to raise money for their trip to Hershey Park. Many girls use chorus as a training ground and move into choir later in their high school career. B. Simpson and D. Richie serve as accompanists for the chorus. The all-girl Chorus spends many hours practicing for their concerts. Chorus officers Section Leaders — Row 1: T. Wyaka. Sec Treas.. J. McPherson. Pres..

The choir worked faithfully all year to raise money in order to go to Ocean City, New Jersey. The group departed from Sunbury three days after the close of the school year. Everyone had ample time to spend on the beach and boardwalk. While in Ocean City, they also performed at St. John's Lutheran Church for the Pentacost Celebration. This year the choir raised money for their exchange trip with Athens High School in March. The choir was there for three days and performed with the choir. Then in April. Athens High School came to Shikel- lamy for three days. Fund raisers for this event included sales of cheese and sausage, lady fingers, and candy bars. Auditions for District Chorus were held in October at the Williamsport Area High School. From the 19 auditioning students. 15 were selected to perform at Warrior Run High School. January 19.

The pro- ject was a great success as many local families were treated to a tasty tradition- al turkey dinner on Christmas. Students from the high school donated a variety of foods. Businesses from the area made donations to help supply the necessities for the yuletime meal. Fifty plump tur- keys from Weis Markets and many as- sorted foods, to make a delicious holiday meal, were packed in boxes and distrib- uted to the needy in the Sunbury area by the Project Merry Christmas staff. Jodi Klock and Traci Badman deliver food for a Christ mas dinner to a family in Sunbury.

Previously, the club has missed the opportunity to compete, due to the lack of other rifle clubs in this area. However. Mr. Eyster. a resident of Milton, has plans to initiate a rifle club in the Milton area, and hopes to arrange competitive meets between them and the Shikellamy club. Mr. Eyster also expressed hope that the club will be able to find a more suit- able rifle range. The present range locat ed in the school's basement, is in such poor condition that it wouldn't meet the NRA standards. The club's membership fluctuates be tween twenty and thirty students, who meet once a week to shoot. The club usually starts its sessions during the sec- ond week in October, and ends them in May. when the members shoot to qualify for awards. Much of the club's equipment, such as guns and ammunition, is donated by the Army. The rest of the expenses are covered by the $4.00 annual dues which each member must pay.

Within our school council members help both students and teachers. The Student Council helps with underclassmen pictures, conducts the eighth grade tour of the high school, organizes dances, and runs the school store. Within the community, the Stu- dent Council organizes the Red Cross Bloodmobiles and Project Merry Christ- mas. This year s officers are: President John Landis, Vice President Chris Roh land, Treasurer Dave Woodring, Corre- sponding Secretary Andrea Morroni, and Recording Secretary Julie Klock. Student council raises most of its money by running the school store, which is under the direction of Student Council Advisor Mr. Balestrini, and stu- dent manager Steve Harrell. The money raised by the Student Council provides for assemblies. Par- ent's Night, bloodmobiles, and Project Merry Christmas. Student Council Officers — A Morroni, Corresponding Sec.. D.

For the first time. FBLA has had its own homeroom. This enabled all the members to be present at every meeting and be better informed about activities. FBLA started the year with a new member night. In October their annual Halloween Party was held at the Pornel Farm. The Shikellamy Chapter of FBLA was proud to host the 1984 Fall Regional Workshop. Area chapters were present to attend seminars concerning job inter- views, the art of listening, and local job opportunities. Information was given about Cystic Fibrosis, the state project. The club members gave a Christmas party at the Selinsgrove Center, com plete with carols and gifts for the resi- dents. In March, the club traveled to Line Mountain to attend the Spring Regional Workshop and to compete in events such as accounting, typing, and short- hand.

Club members volun- teer their free time to help the library staff make materials accessible to stu- dents. This year several senior club mem- bers attended a conference at Kutztown University and visited the college s li- brary. The club also served an annual Christ- mas Tea for faculty and student leaders. The Club raised money by selling choco- late bars to take a trip in the spring. Last year they visited New York City. The Library Club decorated the library for holidays and did other small projects to increase library involvement. Mrs. Phyllis Martin, the club advisor, said, “The Library Club provides a great deal of appreciated service to the school.” During last year's trip to New York City the Library Club visited the famous Rockefeller Center Library Club — Row I: L.

This sometimes overlooked group of students do a lot to help the school. They keep the student body informed of daily events by giving the morning and afternoon announcements and also col- lect gowns after graduation. This year the N.H.S. has started a new program, peer tutoring. This program was initiated to help students who have not maintained a 2.0 average and wish to be involved in extracurricular activities. Due to the large number of students de- siring to be tutored, the diversity of sub- jects to be taught, and the small number of N.H.S. members, students with above average grades have been asked to help with the program. When asked to com- ment on the peer tutoring program, both N.H.S. advisor Clarence Weaver and President Dave Hilscher said, 'The tutor- ing program seems to be a success and we have received many favorable com- ments from teachers, and the students who are being tutored.

Special programs offered at Shikellamy After returning from a class at Susquehanna Uni versity. senior Kevin Knoebel uses the computer in the gifted room. Upward Bound The Upward Bound program is one which provides young people with op portunities and assistance to explore their potential for academic, social and personal growth. With this philosphy, the program increases self confidence and broadens the students' range of choices for post secondary school plans.'' said Miss Krick. The Bloomsburg University devel- oped the Upward Bound program with the help of several school districts. Shi- kellamy started the program in 1979. Miss Krick has been the high school tu tor since then and heads the program at Shikellamy. The program also included a six week stay at Bloomsburg University. The stu- dents stayed at dormatories with the high school tutors and Bloomsburg Uni versity students. While they stayed at the University they were taught different courses and did special group activities. The nice thing about the six week stay is that the kids regard us as people and vice-versa.'' said Miss Krick. Ms Krick instructs Lisa Wolfgang. Kim Simeone. Tricia Hassinger and Sherri Benfer at the weekly meeting for the Upward Bound Program. Susquehanna Students Along with being a senior at Shik comes many privileges. The most popu lar ones include free eighth period, open lunch, and a wide variety of available classes. One of the more rare and un- known privileges is that of attending Susquehanna University for classes. This option is open to any member of the Gifted Program, and to other highly qualified seniors if space and money per mits. The classes available are as varied and numerous as they are at the high school; but many restrictions do apply. Qualifying Shikellamy seniors may only take freshman level courses, with a few exceptions allowed. They cannot take any lab courses, nor phys. ed. Many of the students enjoy the oppor tunity to experience college work and a small part of college life firsthand, before they actually attend a college or univer sity. Shikellamy students who attended Susquehanna included Jerry Bowers. Steve Harrell. Chad Smith, Jon Weis, Jay Baylor. Curt Knouse. Dave Hilscher. Lynne Walshaw. Chris Bannon. Kevin Knoebel and Kim Brumbach. 130 Special Programs Alyssa Vidosh watches as Editor in-Chief Darci Doran types a Focus article on the computer ••Focus — Row I: A Vidosh. V Phillips. C Moyer Row 2: D. Doran. J. Landis. J. Weis. Jon Weis and John Landis edit a piece of prose for use in the literary magazine According to Mr. Gallagher, Focus'' Staff Advisor, Shikellamy's literary mag azine will undergo many changes this year to improve its quality. Although the staff will follow the same basic format that was used in previous years, this year's magazine will also contain more news stories, reviews, essays, and fea ture articles. This is to make up for the absence of the school newspaper. Be cause more news type articles will ap pear in the magazine, the staff will be assigning specific articles to writers, in stead of just accepting various types of works. However, they will still be accept ing individual works, and this year they will be seeking works from other schools in the district and from faculty mem bers. Other changes for this year include additional photography and artwork, and more color, with the possibility of some color photography. However, these changes will not cost the maga zine's readers any extra money. In fact. the staff is trying to lower its price to $1.50. which is $1.00 lower than last year's price. The Focus workshop has achieved full computerization, and writers can now hand their articles in on a computer disc rather than a piece of paper. All of the editing and revising is also done by computer. This is much the same way that large scale newspapers and maga zines do their work. The Focus editors are as follows: EditorinChief. Darci Doran; Assistant Editor, Vicki Phillips; Poetry Editor. John Landis: Prose Editor. Jon Weis; Art Editor. Colleen Moyer: Photography Edi- tor. Alyssa Vidosh. The staff started its meeting at the beginning of the second semester. The staff met every Tuesday in Mr. Gallagher's room, and they contin- ued until the magazine was sent to print four months later. Tocus”undergoes changes to become'bigger and better Foreign Language clubs attract many students This year's German Club has been ac- tively raising money for a proposed trip at the end of the year. Mrs. Main, the club's advisor, says that one of the hot- test items that they have sold this year has been gummy bears. The German Club has also sold other candies, which are imported from Germany, and advent calendars. The club also plans to hold a Christmas bake sale which will feature German-style Christmas foods. Although the club has not yet decided on the location of their trip. Mrs. Main thinks that they will probably visit New York. However, not all of the club’s mon- ey goes toward their trip.

Accord- ing to President Barb Zimmerman, “The candy bars were such a big seller last year, that we decided to sell them again this year.' The money raised from the candy sales will go towards the annual trip at the end of the year. Early plans for the trip included returning to Busch Gar dens or to Mew York, where students can experience some French culture and food. Club officers this year are President Barb Zimmerman, Treasurer Laurie Duke, and Secretary Barb Shoch. President Barb Zimmerman and Treasurer Laura Duke count the profit from a French Club fund raiser. One of the famous attractions visited by the French students was the well-known Eiffel Tower.

Those students were Laurie Duke, Amy Sku- manich, Ellie Young, Andrea Morroni, Sherry Reichner. Kim Brumbach, Leah Savastano, Dave Hartman, Jennifer McCullough, Michelle Reiger, Becky Powell. Joelle Young. Dolores Beaver, and Renee VanKirk. After touring Geneva the group went to the south of France, where they vis- ited Monoco, Nice and Avignon. Follow- ing an overnight train ride, the students arrived in Paris. In Paris the students went up in the Eiffel Tower at night and saw the beautiful view of the famous City of Light, which was truly a highlight of their tour. 134 French Club Trip Students tour England and Scotland ‘I thought the entire trip was exciting. I don't think I could choose a favorite place or activity. They were all equally interesting and fun.” Those were just a few of the words used to describe the 1984 England Scotland tour. The group, under the direction of Miss Bauer, left from New York for an 11 day tour of the two countries. The first days of the trip were spent in London, taking a guided tour, and hav- ing free time to view the city. Some of the many attractions the group saw were Trafalgar Square. Piccadilly Cir- cus. Westminster Abbey. Buckingham Palace. Madame Tussauds Wax Muse- um. and Hyde Kennsington Parks. While still remaining at a London hotel, the group took an extra day to see Canter bury and Dover. In Canterbury, the group walked through the Cathedral made famous by the tales of Geoffrey Chaucer. They also had time to walk among the cities new shopping district. They then traveled to the White Cliff of Dover. After those three exciting days, the group boarded a tour bus to make their way to Scotland. Along the way, they stopped at Stratford upon Avon to tour Shakespeare’s house. They also viewed a presentation of King Henry V by the Royal Shakespearian Company. Next, the travelers stopped at Oxford Universi- ty and toured parts of the college. The group then made its way to the beautiful countryside of Scotland. They stopped at Grasmeere. a small Scotish village. Then they headed for the capital of Scotland, Edinburgh, where they toured that city. On the way back to London the group stopped at York, to view its cathedral of stained glass win- dows. and Windsor Castle, the home of the Royal family. Once in London, they had a final day before their return flight home. Shikellamy students touring England visited The London Underground.' The students enjoyed the activity and beauty of the brightly lit London streets at night. The Shikellamy travelers viewed the House of Parliment on one of their many tours.

Shikellamy s golf team has start- ed on the slow. but steady, road to suc- cess. After several winless seasons the Braves recorded two wins during their 1984 golfing season. The team, w hich is absent of seniors, has three regular starters in Jeff Balcst- rini, Jeff Mart and Matt Garinger. Jeff Bohner and Brad Leninger also started frequently. Because of the team’s youth, Shikellamy golf fans will have a lot to look forward to in future seasons as the Braves try to build up their long dormant golf program. Golf team “swings” on to road of success Golf 139 Softball team impr Fighting their way to a 10-4 record, the 1984 Girl’s softball team placed well in the Susquehanna Valley League. With the impressive 10-4 record the team qualified for Districts, where they advanced to the second round. The success of the team was surpris- ing to some individuals. The team was a bit inexperienced and young at the onset of the season. One of the positions affect- ed by this inexperience was the job of pitching. Coach Fasold said, “What we needed was experienced pitchers at the beginning of the season. The two main Shikellamy pitchers were Tammy Pe- traskie and Steph Fox. Both players were just starting to master the art of pitching. Petraskie provided the speed while Fox came through with accuracy. These players jelled into fine pitchers and the girls did a great job, said Coach Fasold. Lynn Walshaw led the team in hit- ting. “She always seemed to come through at the appropriate moments, stated Fasold. In addition to Walshaw some other players did an outstanding job during the season. Tammy Yerger hit the long ball and Sherri Keaner was a consistent contact hitter. Defensively speaking. Kathy Peiffer was the surprise player of the team. She was a first year player and adapted to the catcher's job very well. She was also one of the main “spirit boosters of the team. Cathy caught as well as any for- mer player and was an all round asset to the team. The team's performance throughout the year improved with experience. Coach Fasold started out with a young unseasoned team and ended up with a team to be proud of. The team is looking forward to many more successful years to come.

The Braves recorded 12 wins and 8 losses and were named Co-champion of the Susquehanna League. Last year's pitching was led by Jeff Hummel who recorded 6 wins and 1 loss. Junior Joe Oshetski had the best overall batting average of .418 followed by junior Tom Moyer with .412 and junior Ben Long with .364. Tom Moyer led the team in ho- meruns by hitting 4 during the season; and also led the team in RBI’s by batting 16. These players displayed fine talent and pro- vided key hits for the Braves. Reflecting on the 1984 team, Mr. Lager- man states, “We had a really good season, and I'm proud of the guys. He has good reason to be proud, for his Braves came a long way from that first game of the season. In 1985 Mr. Lagerman w ill have a “team of returners as he commented. Twelve re- turning starters, eleven seniors and one ju- nior, along with five other returning letter- men should comprise a well-experienced team. J.V. — Row I: B. Amerman. D. Wetzel, E. Rodkcy. J.

Despite the hard work the team's success was hindered by a lack of depth in some areas. We needed more girls to participate in the sport. stated Daphne Fcrster. The team had only three returning seniors. They brought back valuable ad- vice of competitive strategies for the younger members. The three seniors were co-captains Pam Horton, Joanne Kahler and Denise Yagel. The consistent point gainers were re- turning underclassmen. Randi Kunkel was the point leader with specialities in the high jump, triple jump, and javelin, which are all field events. Daphne Fer- ster was the lop hurdler, while Biz Re- buck was the high scoring sprinter. The team's overall dual meet record was 6-2, and they placed eighth in Dis- trict IV AAA. Many of the girls placed. Randi Kunkel placed third in the javelin event. Shikcllamy's Pam Horton also placed fourth and sixth respectively in the 1600 and 800 meter runs. Daphne Ferster finished in fifth position in the 100 meter hurdles while Biz Rebuck ran to a fourth place finish in the 100 meter dash. Coach Bell stated. “If we can get more girls involved and keep the experienced girls, this squad would be very competi- tive. With returning underclassmen like Randi Kunkel the girls track and field team could go far in 1985. Janice Gesner strives for that extra inch in the long jump.

However, multiple injuries and illnesses affected several key per- formers, costing the Braves three con- secutive meets. Led by co-captains. Mark Swanger, Chris Bannon. Mark Bingaman and Jim Brosious and guided by head coach Mr. Bell and assistant coaches, Mr. Shotwell and Mr. Balonis, the Braves took fifth place at the District IV AAA meet. Steve Mull. Bill Purnell, Tony Mottern and Chris Saxton also contributed to the effort. For the second consecutive year Steve Mull was the District IV AAA champi- on in the 3200 meter run with a clocking of 9:46:66.

Boys' Track 147 Braves play tough competitive football The Shikellamy Braves ended their 1984 season with a 5-6 record. This sea- son was plagued by an injury to senior quarterback Joe Oshetski. With injuries to key players, the 1984 Braves football team was not the greatest winning team in Shikellamy football history. But, the 1984 team played tough and every team from Harrisburg to State College who played them knows they were a hard hit- ting, aggressive team. In order to win, a team has to put points on the board. The Braves offense was crippled when Joe Oshetski was in- jured early in the season. Most of the rushing yardage was gained by the sen- ior trio of Bob Poff, Bill Purnell, and Ben Long. These players accounted for about 15% of the total Braves rushing yardage and Bob Poff and Bill Purnell scored 17 combined touchdowns. Up front, the holes were opened by Jerry Zimmerman, Sam Stroh, and Dan Swineford. Defensively, the Braves held their op- ponents to an average of 15 points per game. The defensive line was anchored by big Jerry Zimmerman, Dan Swine- ford, and Ben Long. The linebacker posi- tion and defensive secondary were capa- bly handled by Sam Stroh, Bill Purnell, the team leader with 6 interceptions, and hard-hitting strong safety Bob Poff. The 1984 Braves played great team defense keeping the team close in almost every game. The season was a bit like a roller coaster. The team couldn't keep their winning games consistent and lost to tough opponents. The team's season opener was lost to Cedar Cliff. 0-17. The Braves then defeated local rival Danville by a score of 27-7. Then the following week the Braves shut out the Selinsgrove Seals, 15-0 for the local bragging rights. Williamsport dealt the Braves a tough loss the following week. 27-22. The Braves bounced back for two straight victories against Milton. 28-6, and Lock Haven, 41 -0. State College and Berwick defeated the Braves, 13-7 and 41-7, re- spectively; but the Braves won the Homecoming game against Pottsville, 15-14. Shamokin and Mt. Carmel, the season's last two opponents, defeated the Braves, 18-14 and 21-6, respectively. Bob Poff and John Temple tackle an opponent to stop a long run. Row I: J Temple, R Koch. R. Dcivert. M.

The festivities came to a climatic conclusion as Shik claimed a dramatic victory over Pottsville by a score of 15-14. The first quarter was like a usual foot- ball game — tough!! The Braves played good aggressive football; however. Potts- ville scored the first touchdown but missed the extra point. Shik bounced back when Bob Poff scored late in the quarter with a 1 yard run. Heath Lahr then kicked the extra point to make it 7- 6. Shik. at the end of the first quarter. Pottsville scored the next touchdown in the second quarter. Afterwards they scored the two point conversion to end the half with a score of 14-7 in favor of Pottsville. The third quarter went by with neither team scoring. With only minutes left in the fourth quarter Shik scored on a 5 yard comple- tion by Bill Purnell. Shik then scored the two point conversion on a run by Ken Smith. The clock ran out with Shik on top 15-14. The Shik crowd gave the team a standing ovation at the end of the game. The exciting victory was a good way to close the 20th Annual Homecoming Fes- tivities. Football 15) Cheerleaders perform as “family” The 1984 cheerlcading squad eagerly began practice May 4th in preparation for summer camp and the upcoming football season. Their devotion and en- thusiasm resulted in the squad winning several honors. In addition to honors, the '84 squad represented Shikellamy with flying colors. During the summer the squad attend- ed a cheerleading camp for fresh ideas and intense drills. Pine Forest Cheer- leading camp was held in Greely, Pa. While attending the camp the girls won several awards. The squad received 2 su- perior ribbons, 3 excellent ribbons, a su- per star squad ribbon and a spirit stick. During the season the squad proved to be very productive and hard working. Throughout the season they cheered on faithfully at games as well as pep assem- blies. “Our squad was a very special one because we got along like a family and that is very important when you must operate together as a squad, remarked captain Julie Klock. From their first practice until their last game, they worked hard ... they came a long way. Julie Klock shows concern from the sideline.

The season ap- peared very successful to everyone ex- cept the runners themselves. The team placed 20th at the PIAA AAA State Championships, far below their desired top 5 finish. The dual meet season ended with an impressive record of 9-1. The only loss occured when the Braves competed against powerful Danville. The score of that meet was Shikcllamy, 39. and Dan- ville, 18. In contrast. Shikellamy out- raced all their opponents by a score of 215.5 total season points to their oppo- nents' scores of 367.5 total points. In addition to the dual meet season, the runners had success in other meets and tournaments. The team ran to a 7th place finish in the Big Valley Invita- tional with a total of 220 points. At our own tournament. The Braves Cross Country Class, the team finished in sec- ond place with 49 points. At the State Championship the team didn't perform as well as they wished. We didn't run to our best abilities and ended up 20th. We were hoping to get in the top 5 but 20th place was nothing to be ashamed of.” said Mike Thomas. The team’s success was attributed to varsity letter winners: Jon Weis. Mike Thomas, Chris Bannon. Jon Tischler. Mike Rhoads, Rick Watson, Jack Kove- leskie. Jeff Baylor, and Wendy Shipe. Seniors Chris Bannon and Mike Thomas broke 16 minutes on Shikellamy’s home course. The remaining team members include Bill Attinger. Tim Geist, Jason Attinger. and Mike Marshall.

With many returning starters in the line-up. the '85 girls’ basketball team had a good chance of winning both the league and district championships. At the end of the first half of league play the Shik girls, varsity as well as junior varsi- ty. were undefeated. They also averaged 70 points per game, while holding their opponents to an average of 40 points per game. Coached by Mr. Craig Fogel. the '85 team is guided by senior co-captains Lynn Walshaw. Tammy Petraskie and Randi Kunkel. Coach Fogel expressed his feelings about this year's team by saying. ‘‘This has been the most talented girls' team I've coached since I became head coach at Shikellamy. A prime example of this kind of talent was displayed by Lynn Walshaw and Tammy Petraskie, w ho reached a varsity career goal of more than 1.000 points each. This accomplishment is a first for Shikellamy. for cither a girls' or boys' basketball team. These two talented ath- letes have certainly come a long way. Springing into action.

The squad, under the supervision of Advisor Kath Dunkelberger. attended both home and away games. The cheer- leaders were led by Captain Heather Kauffman, a junior. The remainder of the eight member squad was made up of one senior, two juniors, and four sopho- mores. This group of dedicated girls prac- ticed many hours to become “a positive supportive force to the girls' basketball team. The girls, clapping, cheering, kicking and jumping, spirit the team on to victory. Seated at the sidelines, the girls' basketball cheerleaders enjoy the excitement of the game. Boy ’ Basketball Cheerleaders From: K Ely, S. Libby Bottom: G. Brown. M Witmer, T Hendricks. D Sherman. Top: L. Schlegcl. V. Andrcwlevich The 1984-85 boys' basketball cheer- leaders had one of the best seasons ever. The girls, along with their advisor Miss Barbara Albright, were extremely sup- portive of the basketball team win or lose! They made every effort to display their enthusiasm, talents, and above all their smiles. Their spirited leadership energized the team to do their best and motivated the spectators to voice their support of the varsity and j.v. teams. According to Varsity Captain Dea Sherman, This has been a very success- ful season. The girls worked hard to achieve the degree of professionalism that was exhibited on the court. Overall, the squad was enthusiastic and. I be- lieve. an attribute to the team. W aiting for the two remaining squad members, the cheerleaders rehearse one of their routines.

Joe Robsock, consisted of two seniors, four juniors, one sopho- more. and select members from the j.v. team. Mr. Robsock. who coached the team for the first time last year, stated that “this year's team has more potential than last year's and has started to over- come some of its difficulties. Two major problems the team had to overcome were the quilting of numerous players in midseason and the changing of the team's starling lineup. The Braves' record during the exhibi- tion season was not good and many stu- dents assumed “basketball was going to be as bad as last year. However, Mike Bletl. a starting senior guard, comment- ed. “We had a hard scries of exhibition games. We played well, but not well enough; but now that we arc playing league games, we continue to improve with each game. The Braves, under the direction of co- captains Bill Purnell and Ra Bettleyon. continued to improve and by the end of January had won 3 out of 6 league games. With half of the season complet- ed. Bob Mowery was the Braves' top point-scorer, averaging 16.7 points per game, and was the second high scorer in the Keystone Big Seven League. With determination and teamwork, the Braves became a stronger and more competitive team in their league. (o-captains: B Purnell. R Bcttlcyon. Jumping into the air.

The junior varsity basketball team, coached by Mr. Keiser. consisted of nine sophomores and three juniors. This years team played well together. In fact. Mr. Keiser stated “the most positive factor concerning the team was their ability to play as a team rather than individuals. The J.V. Braves team won the majority of their games which Mr. Keiser feels is “due largely to the leadership of the three captains. Tri-captains Matt Ben- ner. Steve Scholl, and Rick Rcichner led the team to their numerous victories. Since every member of this team will compose our future varsity team, hope- fully they will continue to improve their basketball skills and techniques and be- come a winning varsity squad within the next two years.

W restling Cheerleaders 165 Record breaking Braves “grapple” to remain 1 Over the past twenty years Shikel- lamy has established a tradition of high quality wrestling. The 1984-85 w restling team carried on this tradition. The Braves, the state's AAA No. I ranked team, were way ahead of the competition again in 1985. The leant has held the District IV title for the past four years. in addition to bringing home the PIAA state team AAA championship last season. The 1985 team, led by tri-captains Tony Reed. John Supsic and Dan Bot- tiger. continued to break school records throughout the wrestling season. By ear- ly February the team had broken the school's previous ”38 straight wins re- Team members do warm-up exercises prior to a wrestling match The Shikellaim scoreboard “tells it all.' cord and had accumulated 44 victories. The team also had three shut-outs by midscason which set a school record. Coach Phil Lockcuff, in his 1 Ith sea- son as coach of the Braves, had an over- all record of 175-16-3 by early February. At the completion of half the season's games. Tony Reed, a defending state champion, was 20-0: and also undefeat- ed John Supsic boosted his record to 19- 0.

Since his freshman year John Supsic has come a long way in his wrestling career. Now a senior. John, who holds Shikellamy's record for the most career wins, is one of the Braves best wrestlers. On Thursday, January 10. 1985, John pinned Todd Reiner of Line Mountain to pick up his 112 th career win. Shikcl- lamy’s record for career wins had been held, prior to Jan. 10. by Robert Cook. Bob. during his wrestling career, which ended in the 1982-83 season, had III wins. After his record-breaking bout John was congratulated by former re- cord holder Bob Cook. Coach Phil Lockcuff said. “I am cer- tainly pleased for John. He was well de- serving (of the honor) as was Bob Cook when he won his III bout.” John, who never missed a match in his four years on the team, was also honored for his outstanding accomplishment at the All-Sports Banquet. Supsic breaks school record Wrestling 169 Kegler’s “strike” again Shikellamy's bowling team, a member of ihe Susquahanna Valley Conference, is described by coach Moot Deiblcr as “a fairly young team, but a very good one. Because they are a young team, however. Coach Deiblcr will have many- experienced bowlers returning next year. The boys' varsity team, which at mid- season was second to Central in the league, lost seniors Jeff Eichner. Chuck Smith, and Ryan Wolfe. However, three out of five of the starling varsity players will return for the 1985-86 season, in- cluding sophomore Calvin Miller who has the team's highest average on the lanes. In February the girls' varsity team was ranked first in the league, and coach Deiblcr looked for them to win the championship. Although seniors Marina Leese, Ardie Strauser. Gail Thomas. and Jamie Brosius graduated, coach Deibler will still have a very good team next year with the return of Jenny MeCollough. Shelly Wynn, and Paula and Peggy Libby, all of whom have the team's top rankings. Halfway through the season, the boys' J.V. team was ranked second in their standings and the girls' J.V.'s were ranked in the fourth spot in their league. Bowling Row : P. Libby. P Libb . K. Clark.

Ray 180 Outstanding Students President bids farewell to Class of ’85 As we approach the end of our high school careers, we can look forward to ... - . Reflecting on his four year� at Shikellamy High School. Rich Shoch writes his farewell to the Class of '85 our graduation and the challenge of the future However, this is also a time to remember the ups and downs that we have encountered during our high school years and a time to recollect all that we have learned from these exper iences so that we can use them as guide- lines in the future. In our four years at Shikellamy we have learned to work together as a strong united body, while still keeping our own individuality. When our junior year came around, everyone had his her own idea of what our prom should be like. The final decision as to what the prom's theme should be certainly did not please everyone on the prom com- mittee. However, the committee still pulled together and worked to make our prom one of the school's best Not all of our memories have been pleasant though. In the summer follow ing our junior year, we suffered the loss of our classmate and friend, Chris Kohl This tragic loss made us realize just how much we need our friends. Just as we will never forget Chris, so shall we never forget the friendships which were culti- vated at Shikellamy. In closing. I would like to tell my fellow classmates that it has been an honor to have served as your president for the last two years. I have tried my best to represent the class of 1985 in a manner which would be acceptable for the class as a whole. I hope that we may all enjoy success and fulfillment in whatever the future holds for us. Rick Shoch President Class of '85 7 0 J IPe ve come a long way President s Farewell 181 AO .

Sponsors 185 Yearbook staff “moves on up Last year, the Profile Staff successful- ly completed their 1984 yearbook, the theme of which was “Give me a home.” Ironically, when the staff regrouped at the beginning of this year to lay the ground work for their twentieth-anniver- sary edition, they actually did find them selves in search of a “home. Traditionally, the Profile Staff held its meetings in the yearbook advisor's classroom. This year, however, in light of Mrs. Hettinger’s resignation as year- book advisor, the advisor's position was given to Mrs. Doebler. Mrs. Doebler, be- ing a subsititue teacher, had no room of her own to offer the Profile Staff, so the staff used the school's conference room for its meetings. However, it soon be- came apparent that the conference room was not a suitable yearbook room because the staff had to constantly work around the other meetings for which the room was used. Once again the staff was forced to move, but this time the move was per- manent. The upper level of the library has become the Profile's new home, and they certainly came a long way to get to it!

Every year one of the hardest deci- sions a yearbook staff has to make is what the theme of the book will be. Ev- eryone usually has an idea of what the yearbook should say. This year, howev- er. the staff was in unison when Mrs. Doebler proposed the, We've come a long way,’ theme based on our school’s twentieth anniversary. At the beginning of the school year Profile Advisor Mrs. Doebler and editors Monica Smith, Ron Comfort and Rich Shoch and staff member Michelle Weiser attended a yearbook workshop at the Williamsport Community College. While at the workshop, they attended many classes which helpd them better understand the mechanics of yearbook ing. After these five returned from the workshop, they immediately started training the other staff members. Soon the staff was busy writing copy, drawing layouts, typing copy and taking pic tures. The yearbook staff was constant- ly trying to meet deadlines which always came two weeks too soon. But eventual ly the final pages were prepared and the end was in sight. Yearbook staff produces anniversary edition Profile J89 In review 1965-66 The first year of the new Shikellamy School District was a year of many na tional happenings and events. It was a time of triumph and a time of sadness. The 1965 school year started on a high note, with the great Sandy Kaufax's triumph over arthritus to get a major league strikeout record in baseball. Along with this came the T.V. debut of Get Smart,” one of America's first sit- coms. Science fiction and adventure litera- ture were at a high. The book. Dune. was first published, and The Lord of the Rings was reissued in October. Dr. Zhi vago hit the movie screens in December while in January the famed “Batman' first appeared on T.V. During the year history was being made throughout the (J.S. and the world. New York made history three times in as many months when a newspaper strike lasted for three weeks and shut down all daily and weekly publications in Sep tember. the N.Y. World's Fair closed in October with a total attendance of 51,607,307 people, and on Nov. 9-10. the famous blackout, which lasted for two days, shut down N.Y. City entirely. Vietnam was constantly in the news. In October a two-day war protest took place in over 40 American cities. During November, a Quaker burned himself to death in front of the Pentagon to protest the war. and the death toll rose to over 1000 casualties in the war. The Vietnam War hit the front pages again in Decern ber when the total number of troups was raised to 170,000 and again in June when the death toll was over 5000. The year by far was not one of the most spectacular in American history. It had many events which were of great importance, yet it also had equally as many trivial pursuits. ' In November. 1965, Wham-O patent ed the first frisbee; and a car named Bee plove set a new world speed record of 600.01 m.p.h. in Utah. In January 1966. health warnings first appeared on ciga rette packages; and the first black cabi net member. Robert Weaver, Sec. of HUD. was appointed. In March, Scott Paper offered its one- time wear. $1.00 dress to the consum- ers, while at the same time the movie classic The Sound of Music received the Oscar's Best Picture Award. And finally, in June, Surveyor I landed on the moon, marking a beginning to the space race. To end it all, in 1966. President John- son was in office for his first elected term, with Hubert Humphrey as his Vice President. In review 1984-85 The year of 1984-85 has been a year of enlightenment and improvement for the American public. It has been a year in which America has been made to ac- knowledge its problems, and then rectify them. It has also been a time in which America has learned to reach for the un- known, while trying to restrict itself from the unwanted. America s enlightenment has come from events such as Geraldine Ferraro's candidacy for Vice President of the (J.S., a first for a woman. Other knowledge was derived from the education of the television shows The Day After’ and ‘The Eighth Day. which opened Ameri- ca’s eyes to the harsh realities of a nucle ar holocaust. Much of America's enlightenment has resulted in the improvement of our soci- ety and the world. The seriousness of drunk driving was finally realized, and new laws against the offense have result- ed in a safer America. New laws which give administrators and teachers the right to search students and their lock- ers were aimed at cleaning up America's schools from the effects of drugs and other contraband. And. on a world wide scale, the seriousness of hunger and starvation has reached the hearts of mil lions of people. This has resulted in an upswing in the amount of money being given to help the needy. America’s boldness has sent the space shuttle rocketing into the last fron- tier many times this year; however, cau- tiousness has resulted in renewed (J.S.- Soviet arms talks to keep weapons out of space. Entertainment is another area in which America improved over the past year. Trivial Pursuit, a game of fast growing popularity, caused millions of all ages to wrack their brains in an educa tional pastime which swept America. And television programming has im- proved with comedy and science-fiction shows such as The Cosby Show and V . However, the hilariously uneduca tional movie “Ghost Busters’ took America by storm and sparked a revolu tion in the marketing business, which used the movie’s popularity to sell any- thing from pencils to T-shirts. America's adoption of the ghost busters was a wel come relief from the pressing issues of the real world. Although the year 1984-85 produced its share of trials and setbacks, it also produced a renewed selfawareness for the public; and therefore, it has also fa shioned new hope for the future.
