FORREST RADCLIFFE, senior, devoted Kinney's employee by day, joyous partier by night. MAEVE SPICER, senior, spent the summer in Switzerland, where the camp was a cow pasture donated by a kindly mountain farmer. All buildings had to be constructed by the campers themselves out of Army tarps and logs. Wasser, the Suiss German word for water, was the name this sight was dubbed. . f ' M ' , I A 2 ,f I . . f llqv ' 'I ,K 32, I X Q'e'sl -fl' . ,,.- . , f l 'A 3. 1 .fl I v . i-r . tv '- ra, M- Summer Daze Summer Daze the saying tends to bring out a rather lethargic feeling, a feeling of luxurious indulgement that provokes our tendency toward laziness to come forth in all it's glory. Yet the memories of the past sum- mer contradict these thoughts entering our minds. Many devoted students continued going to school right through the summer in hopes of obtaining their driver's license, and though the summer was not a dream of re- laxation, their efforts are now paying off as they find they no longer need to search to find a ride to the latest SHS social event. They now can arrive in style, jingling car keys in hand. Meanwhile several Ridgers spread to the far corners of the nation to gain their con- tinuing education and fun in the sun. Rumor has it that a few students even allowed them- selves to be submerged in the language, cul- ture or fine arts of a foreign country! As ambitious as many students became to use their summers to the summit, there luck- ily remained just enough Ridgers to form the Blue Crush and get our football team off to a good start, arousing the feelings of spirit everyone had set aside for the Summer Daze summerf5 The ABC s Cf Pol1t1cs Anderson? Bush? Carter? Which one? Before the November 2 election many high school students had conflicting ideas about who should run our country in spite of the small number of students who were actual ly voting age The media made it clear that everyone was unsatisfied with the choices People feared that Reagan would start a war Carter would lose control of the economy and Anderson would encounter prob lems due to lack of experience The choice seemed to be most difficult for those who felt Anderson was best yet were firmly set against Reagan Would votes for Anderson take away votes for Carter and cause Rea gan to win? Or did Anderson really have a chance? Another issue important to Shortridgers was the choice between Andrew Jacobs and Sheila Suess for the eleventh district representative to Congress Do we need a change from Jacobs? Would Sheila Suess do a better job? A poll of Ridgers revealed a variety of ideas The issue most often discussed was the importance of voting Libby Guernsey freshman said I cant vote because lm too young and Im glad because there isnt anyone to vote for' If I could vote Id ' l probably vote for Anderson but that would be a last resort Roy Taylor a senior nearing voting age com mented I m not old enough to vote and I wouldn t if I could because it s all very confusing Theresa Turner sophomore said I m not mterested in politics at all because lm not old enough to vote However some Ridgers are looking forward to the voting age Phillip Bates proclaimed I wish I were old enough to vote because Id make my vote count Kevin Thomas semor commented I m very interest ed in the 80 elections I think people should take politics more seriously The opinions about the presidential candidates were very well defined both similarly and conflictingly The majority of students seemed to feel that Carter was most aware of the needs of blacks while Reagan seemed ignorant of their existance Michael Mlmms junior stated None of the candidates do very much I d rather have Carter back in office because he s more for blacks than Reagan Jeffery Pettigrew semor said I know that what Carter has done for the people is not spectacular but it s not bad I-Ie d do better than Reagan or Anderson Phillip Bates said Its a dog fight and people are gettmg hurt but it s interesting to me I thmk Carter is for the blacks while Reagan will keep the rich rich and the poor poor Roy Taylor stated Reagan wants to down youth programs and that s bad because these programs keep people off the 3 97 . . . . , , ' as 1 1 . 1 . . c Q u I, ' 1 . sc 1 . . . . . 7 1 , 0 o U u , I 1 ' ' ' ' . . . . gg . 1 , , ' . 1 77 ' ' ' - - as 1 . 1 1 1 ' Q 1 1 Q1 9 . , - . . . . , . 1 ' 1 - 1 ' ' . . gg .

They demanded the return of the shah, who was receiving medical treatment in the U.S. at that time, and his wealth. They also accused the embassy staff of being spies. They, of course, have diplomatic immunity under International Law, thus the Iranians could not arrest them on any charge. Since the hostages were taken, there have been innumerable delays by the Iranians on deciding the fate of the hostages, the Iran- ians always blaming their ills on the U.S. or the hostages. Things were further complicated by Rus- 6fcur e t events Destiny Unknown sia's invasion of Afghanistan, which has a common boarder with Iran as does Russia. The U.S. showed displeasure with Russia for this aggressive action by boycotting the 1980 Summer Olympics. Next, Iran was attacked by Iraq in an effort to reclaim land that the two countries have been fighting over for thousands of years. The fighting threatened to spread, thus drastically reducing the amount of oil flowing through the Persian Gulf area. Iran, of course, again postponed a decision on the fate of the U.S. hostages. With any luck, by the time you get your 1981 Annual, the hostages will be back home. SHORTRIDGE tied a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree, a sign of hope that the hostages would soon return. streets. The most common opinion of Anderson was that he didn't have enough experience and wasn't well enough known. Jasper Edwards, said, He doesn't talk enough. No one knows what he thinks about any issues Jasper also had the most surprising suggestion as to who should run the country l think Nixon should run for president l know what happened but remember how good the economy was when he was in office He kept inflation down I know he was taking money but all presidents are going to that The only difference is that Nixon s friends told on him isa as rye rd, 1 73' WF ? 'lf 1 QW' fi '53 JASPER EDWARDS Michael Mimms Jeffery Pettigrew There sa Turner Roy Taylor Lynda Edmond Libby Guernsey Marcia Johnson and Phillip Bates discuss their political opinions Many students were disturbed by the way in which the candidates publicized their campaigns. Marcia Johnson, senior, stated, They put each other down very hard, but that's politics. Libby Guernsey said, They take up too much time on television Their campaigns are dirty All that the candidates do is criticize each other to make themselves look good Many obiections were made when Carter chose not to participate in a debate sponsored by the League of Women Voters because of Anderson s presence On the contrary Kevin Thomas stated Carter was right to decline because Reagan and Anderson would gain on him Then he would lose more support Concerning the representative for eleventh district to Congress Kevin said Sheila Suess has a chance Jacobs has been in for a long time and people are ready for a change Marcia Johnson said I really dont think that Shelia Suess will win but anything is possible Michael Mimms commented Ithmk Suess Though high school students are notorious for being apathetic about the political situation of their country this pole seemed to show that once inside the crowd when looking at the individual each students ideas beliefs and feelings were very strong in spite of the confusion and discontent with this year s election choices each person had his own thoughts each one in the crowd cc - - . . . .

It started a whole week ahead of time as the seniors decorated the senior hall, daring anyone who wasn't of senior status to enter their territory. The very spirited juniors, not to be shown up by the upperclassmen, then deco- rated their hall as well as all the foot- ball players' lockers! But the spirit really showed when the pep session got under way It was an uplifting sight to see the entire school at one time cheering with enthusiasm There was a great turn out of Shortridge fans to see the Blue Crush play the Marshall Patri ots Though the game ended in defeat for our Devils Ridgers carried on their celebrating spirit in their wild adven tures for the evening THE WILD N CRAZY Juniors won the Homecoming float contest with their theme of Sink the Patriots Boston Tea Party style.

With the theme Sitting On Top of the World, the couples entered the doors of St. Peter Claver with excitment and anticipation of what the evening would bring. These ele- gently dressed couples danced to the beat of Ra and the Sunship and then led by newly crowned King, Henry Reed, and Queen, Fe- licia Edwards, swayed cheek to cheek for the King and Queen's dance to the tune of Gotta Be A Special Lady. As was promised, this evening of dining and dancing proved to be a success as each couple in the crowd showed their apprecia- tion of all the work that went into making this magical evening happen by thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Spectacular voices of Anthony Vinson, Patricia Ander- son, Mark Durham, Jessica Hayes and many others amazed and captivated the audience. Felecia Edwards and Tony Brown thought it best to come out on stage on wheels. The rollerskating duo inspired the audience to Rock, Roll and Bound along. For Shor- tridge Alum,Tracy Markham, it was a nostol- gic event to perform in the show once again. Even a teacher and administrator par- ticipated.

Happy Talk at SHS South Pacific is a Rogers and Hammerstein musical which was written during World War II about the American sailors and marines on a south pacific island which they took over. Under the hot lights of Caleb Mills Hall, palm trees swayed and grass skirts shook up the Shortridge audience. The chilly weather of November 20th and 21st was soon to be forgotten once you were seated in front of the beautiful sets palm trees, volcanos, and clear blue oceans. This musical involves many love stories but the show's comedy topped it off. The special touch of humor brought on by our own Tamar Whitted portraying Bloody Mary and the funny Brent Hen- don as Billis was found to be the ticklish spot of our audience's funnybone. A wealthy, middle agedlFrench planter, Emile De Beo- que, portrayed by Anthony Vinson, falls in love with the young nurse, ensign Nellie Forbush, played by Lisa Contrers. At first this doesn't appear to be a good relationship but later has a happy ending. Lt. Cable, played by Mark Durham, arrives to set a watch on a Japanese held island nearby when he becomes the next victim of love. He falls for Bloody Mary's daughter Liat. After many latenight rehearsals and the curtain's time to rise was soon, Philip Hirsch, Drama director, and Myron El, Vocal director, gathered the entire cast together for a last few words of inspiration. In this large mass of confusion the smiles grew larger for the fact that it was so close to show time. Even though the production was accompanied by small audiences it proved to be a delightful evening. All the help from talented set designer Tom Birk and the stage crew led by Jerry Lucas which did an exquisite job of creating the illusion of a realistic, South Pacific island aided in producing a believable atmosphere. A job well done to the entire cast including Tom and Jerry. L ' .,,. J 4 ...a V? 3 or R V mlsgban' 1 Jlbw ' , fm- il..

The Shortridge Orchestra set the mood for the evening by playing Little Drummer Boy. Ca- leb Mills Hall then filled with joyous voices as the Beginning and A Cappella choirs per- formed several selections highlighted with solos by Jaqueline Slatter, Berlynne Turner and Anthony Vinson. Tamar Whitted and Mark Durham surprised attentive listeners with a duet of Silver Bells. The evening came to an end soon after the band had aroused the audience with the energentic song Sleigh Ride. Toes tapped, voices car- oled, and memories were flooded by thoughts of happy holidays.

During the fall of 1980 the l.P.S. School Board announced it's plans to close at least one high school. ln response to the threat on Shortridge's life, this poster was produced to inform students and teachers about what they could do to save their school.

Many people feel that the current threat is perhaps the most serious in recent years. Over the next two months several hearings will be held to determine whether or not Shortridge is, indeed, one of the indianapolis Public High Schools destined to bite the dust. But fear not, fellow Shortridgers, lust as this threat upsets many of us, it also draws us together. ln other words, Shortridge students, old and new, are again ioining together to fight off this ominous threat. How can you support your school? One is to be ready to attend any hearings or meetings that could influence the fate of Shortridge: and what better way to appear at the meetings or anywhere than in a shirt, sweatshirt or iacket emblazoned with the words Shortridge IS lndianapolis ? Yes, for only Sl.00 you can have this slogan silk screened on any article ot clothing you wish. Help show your school spirit by bringing your shirts, sweats, or any other garment, to room 320 where Ms. Cerola and her art energy team will print your garb from now until December l8, periods one through eight. The article of clothing, naturally is suggested to be either blue or wh ite. Don't let your school and all it stands for die without a tight, do your part to save Shortridge. Vaudeville Acts Get Down To Business There's No Business Like Show Busi- ness, was the theme for this years Junior Vaudeville. Once again it was apparent that a lot of time effort, and emotion went into this theatrical production. To start off the show, some of Shortridge's own Devilettes performed a danceline to the Vaudeville's famous theme song. The first act continued the high quality of entertainment with A Neptune Interlude written by Edie Cassell and Dianna Maynard. lt was followed by The Last Remake of the Mummy's Curse, a comedy written by Mike Selby and Cyrus Behroozi which had the audience rolling on the floor in laughter. The third and final act was Homer's Odyssey written by Julia Wegner and Paul Galloway. Along with these three terrific casts, there were four intermission acts. Suzanna Mitchell sang, with a little help from her family, while Pat- rick Appleton daringly rode his six foot uni- cycle. Rhonda McNiel, Sarah Lobley and Kristin Johnson thrilled their viewers with stylish dancing. After the final curtain call a grand feeling of satisfaction filled those who attended and participated in this annual gala. A hearty congratulations is due to everyone who was involved in this years Junior Vaudeville for a fine job done. it s.., ww, ,QF All ROCHELLE BOYD AND Mark Durham give each other a smile of confidence as they see this yearsVaudeville form.

LES TAYLOR and his jazz band entertain Ridgers with a variety of tunes, Ridgers saw and heard proof that the ad' ministration really got their heads together to think of cultural activities to benefit the student, Starting in October, a series of audi- toriums was presented during 3rd period to the entire school. After several years of split auditoriurns which confused teachers, stu- dents, and schedules, the administration de- cided to have only one auditorium for all students. The result was studded with suc- cess. The first auditorium was a pep session for homecoming. In only 40 minutes, Ridgers had Caleb Mills Hall bursting with spirit, Next to hit the Ridge, on October 22, was Artist in Residence, Les Taylor. Students were showing signs of excitement even bee fore entering the auditorium as the smooth, jazzy tones of Les Taylor and band drifted into the hallways. Les Taylor, a native of Indpls., comes to Shortridge every Tuesday and Thursday to instruct all musicians inter- ested in jazz. His performance demanded a standing ovation. The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra made their annual visit to the Ridge, bringing with them I-'licletaro Suzuki, a famed Japaf nese violinist. Directed by Kenneth Kiesler, ranging from a ballet for elephants by the symphony played a variety of rak to the soundtrack from Star Wars, illustrate the great versatility of the sympho-gil ny.

We here at Shortridge believe that the variety of classes offered to us are the common factors that unite us in academic harmony. This past year has carried on the SHS tradition of upholding a stringent yet enjoyable educational program. There is a hope that within these next several pages a few hundred people will be flooded with the excitement that carried through the 1980 81 school year. Shortridge's Third Year As I-Iome Of Performing Arts School It is appropriate that this section starts with Introduction to Performing Arts be- cause this is where it all begins. In Intro. Perf., as it is familiarly called, students learn basic techniques of each of the five compo- nents: Music, Visual Arts, Theater, Dance and Writing. The purpose of this course is for students to become a good audience of art in all forms. Intro. Perf. also offers a chance for students to realize their talents and prepare for auditions in the separate components. But this class is more than study it also includes writing and filming soap operas, choreographing and performing dances and drawing portraits. Guest performers are a very important part of introduction to Per- forming Arts. Students have the opportunity to learn about art from the artists them- selves. gg-n-1 jst 1-1-' ip hurl n-1, ,I flu, xr, NZM 3Ofintroduction to performing arts An Artist 's Wew How would you like to be in a class where you are graded on your originality? Original- ity is one of the most important aspects of the SPA Visual Arts class. In this class, be- tween six and eight brave people work on everything from portraits to sculptures. Although a questionable feature of a school of Performing Arts, Visual Arts is an integral part of this magnet program. It is also unique in many ways. While in most components it is necessary to audition for placement, with a song, a piece from a play, or a movement class, V.A. students are ex- pected to present a portfolio of their works. Field trips are a frequent experience of the V.A. students. Inspiring surroundings are very important to all artists. For students of the Visual Arts component, this could mean a corridor of the Indianapolis Museum of Art, a bit of shade in the courtyard, or a cluttered, very familiar, room with classical music in the air. In Visual Arts most people have a special- ty. Students are given more freedom to go their own wayl' than in regular art class. Assignments are given but you are on your own to develop them. Visual Arts is a chal- lenging part of the School of Performing Arts which allows much space for individual- ism. FIRST AND second period Introduction to the Perform- ing Arts students focus on a study in portrait drawing. In Harmony Confused vocal and instrumental students stumble through sight singing exercises and various other lessons, such as conducting and performance techniques in the Ad- vanced SPA Music Class. This class is quite different from past years, singers and instrumental musicians are together in one class learning many as- pects of music instead of having intensive study in just one area. With a grant from Young Audiences, some students are receiv- ing weekly private lessons. Young Audi- ences also sponsors visiting artists who come to perform and answer questions. And, of course, all SPA Music students are required to perform at least once every six weeks. Everyone helps to critique each other with the assistance of their instructor, Roger S. Spaulding. Mr. Spaulding is kept very busy by his students, expecially by dodging com- ments based on his name. With this type of class, students are given the chance to develope their own creativity while helping classmates in their studies. PAUL GALLOWAY demonstrates his conducting techniques in SPA Music class.

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word dance ? Do you picture hair tightly pulled into buns and shiny pink pointe shoes? Or do you have an image of bangles and bellybuttons? lf you chose the first answer, you have just won a pair of season tickets to the New York City Ballet performances. Well, dance for the students enrolled in the Performing Arts Dance course means a lot more than toe shoes or bellybuttons. lt means dancing five days a week whether there's frost on the ballet barres or steamy mirrors. lt means tearing off sweaty tights and leotards after class, showering in John- sons and Johnson's Baby Powder and jump- ing into your clothes in just two and one half minutes. lt also means a total dedication to your interest in dance fie, concentrating on keeping your arms in third arabesque in that flying split leap across the dance studiol. lt can mean aggravation when your hair pins fly out of your hair while you attempt a quaduple turn, but dance can also mean ex- hileration when an instructor gives you a compliment for your efforts. A theory on dance : it may not be a bed of roses, but who ever said that in the pro- cess of collecting petals, you wouldn't have to tap dance on a few thorns.

Theater is special because in drama you are given a chance to express yourself. lt can be used to share an idea, illustrate a theory, or just used to let yourself go . With theater you are given a chance to try a different personality for size. You can be- come a different person. The Performing Arts Theater class meets Monday through Friday for the first three periods at the Civic Theater on the grounds of the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The stu- dents and Roberta Bowers and Liz White, the theater teachers, start each day with warm-up exercises and voice exercises. These exercises, just as exercises of a danc- er, help the artists loosen up and prepare to work. During the remainder of the class time students work on concentration, relaxation fharder than you thinkl, body movement, stage presence, interpretation of the writer's material, and other theater performance qualities. Often, students split up into groups to practice dialogues and to criticize and help each other. As homework , stu- dents are often expected to read plays, write reports on them, and practice roles for plays. Analysis papers are also a part of theater homework . To be a theater stu- dent is to encounter new, exciting exper- iences every day.

Where there is much desire to learn, there of necessity will be much arguing, much writing, many opinions, for opinion in good men is but knowledge -John Milton Elements Cf Yes, Humanity is still alive and well and living in the infamous room 214. Most of humanities, anyway, assemble as a class in the heart of the english wing everyday. The H.O.G.W.A.S.H. organization: Hu- manities Organization for Greater Widening, Awareness and Strengthening of Happiness is a melting pot of the school's premier intel- lectuals, bums, artisans, introverts and extra- curricularverts. The classroom is constantly burgeoing with inspiration that flows from The Old Master himself, Mr. Allen Sutherland. Faithfully, these students work with Mr. Sutherland on developing awareness of and opinions on the central world conflicts and accomplishments of our time. Mr. Suther- land teaches the children of his previous students with the same vigor and newness that he has had since the beginning. He pre- sents an opportunity in the humanities class for students to speak their mind openly in regards to the current topic of discussion. Students, therefore, have a chance to de- velop a strong sense of the way they deal with problems and an in-depth analogue of ideas that they are confident about express- ing. The class has stumbled upon many an earthly revelation and a few cosmic ones too, but the rare adventure in studying the great literature, classical and current ideas and the way that we communicate to one another is that we are thinking for ourselves. We are not just being taught, we are learn- ing. And even more importantly, we are learning how to learn! Cheers H.O.G- .W.A.S.H.! IST DAS NICHT ein Schnitzelbank?

Art And Poetry By Aaren Perry .vi 9, 'Q ff , Q N foreign languagef39 Science is an imaginative adventure of the mind seeking truth in a world of mystery. Formulas For SCIQHCQ Science might be defined as the empirical search for truthg begun initially by the philos- ophers. Philosophy, which might be called the mother of science, involved nothing but the observation of everythingg as such, it was the first attempt at ascribing rational expla- nations to inexplicable phenomenan. Al- though philosophy is responsible for the en- richment and cultivation of the western mind, it has always been hampered by the all-encompassing sphere of knowledge which it had as its subject for observation. For progress to continue, some specializa- tion, some division of labor had to develop. The advent of science, and the develop- ment of the many disciplines subsumed un- der it, marked man's continued efforts to define the universe in some rational way. Science may ultimately be the highest form of inquiry because it alone has as its objec- tive a lucid understanding of the true nature of things. It, unlike many other disciplines, is based not upon presuppositions, but rather upon empirical evidence which allows cer- tain inferences to be made on the nature of our surroundings. We are wrongly given to regard the ad- vent of science as a divergence from all determinism. The choice lay not between a theistic determinism and freedom, but rather between a theistic determinism and a scienti- fic determinism. The process of science is forever uncovering unalterable laws of na- ture which are far more inexorable than the Ten Commandments. THE SKELETON in Mr. Baker's closet is brought out for public review.

While standing in front of the circular' mirror, which has an area of 2 pi r, she figures the volume of toothpaste needed to allow each tooth exactly .34 cubic cm. After brushing she smiles a perfect concave smile. She is dressed in exactly four minutes and nineteen seconds and proceeds downstairs to feast on a precise picnic. Addie multiplies her eggs by three and divides them into a scramble. She takes the first derivative of well-defined wheat toast and spreads butter two mm. thick. She measures her juice into a graduated cyclinder and drips it out drop by drop. She munches and crunches through these mid morning brunches with 200n of force from each jaw. At 9:53 with definite steps she makes her way to the bus stop. The bus driver arrives at 9:55 with a speed of 40 meters per second. She subtracts the miles and bisects the smiles while reciting the Pythagorean theorem. And at last she is there, in a heaven of digits, surrounded by numerals and symbols. She goes to each class in a daze, multiplying her joy exponen- tially. She is enrolled in algebra, geometry, calculus and computer. She is also studying advanced math and general math.

Whether one studies Alexander's invasion of Egypt in the World Civilization class or Hitler's inva- sion of Poland in the U.S. History class, experience spans the gap of time to educate man of his past tragedies and triumphs. One should not think that the job of a history teacher is an unpleasnt one. US. History teacher James Hausmann states, I see History as an endless story which can be interpreted in many different ways. He went on to say that he still enjoys teaching immensely even after years of classes. But teachers are not the only people who enjoy History. Sophomore Cyrus Behroozi says, History is by far my favorite subject. I think itls much more interesting than any other. Sophomore Natasha Wagner added, t'It's like reading a fairy tale or a novel with the added adventure of it being truef' At any rate, students here will continue to live a part of history every day.

To an artist, a blank piece of paper, a new lump of clay or a smooth piece of wood is an invitation. Hidden inside are paintings, sculp- tures and carvings waiting to be discovered. The possibilities are endless. Each artist uses his creativity to find something different. When the pen touches the paper everything begins to flow. The artist becomes part of what is being created. The sculpture, worked on for so many hours, becomes like a child. A part of the artist's self is embed- ded forever in the work of art. Hours and hours are spent perfecting each curve, cor- ner and hollow so that it becomes the exact self meant to be portrayed. Art can be an expression of the self and a reaction to the many selves seen in others. HAMMER AND ANVIL are demonstrated by art department head Ms, Wilson.

Students Get Physical Physical education is an exercise in endur- ance and discipline that every Ridger must go through. Some look forward to it as two semesters during which the day's pressures can be relieved through physical action. Oth- ers put it off and end up overgrown seniors in a class of excited freshmen. Whenever it happensfthe routine devel- ops in the same way for everyone. lf it were to happen to you everyday you would be greeted by that certain aroma, particular to the locker room, and at once become im- mersed in it's atmosphere. You would have to fit your belongings into a locker which would seem to shrink as the weeks went by. Your shoes would be piled on top of your new pants. Your books would be squashing your favorite hat. The shorts, faded from overwashing, would become as familiar as your big toe. You would run up the stairs, somedays with enthusiasm, somedays with honest-to-goodness dread, to your place on the cold hard floor. After the daily rigamar- ole of exercises, the class would follow it's course, a course followed for many years. Everyone must go through with it and every- one makes it. lt's just another piece of the puzzle that makes up Shortridge. AN ANT'S eye view of some vigorous jumping jacks and jills, MR. FITZGERALD discusses the exercise agenda with one of his students. physical educationf45 It is work which gives flavor to life. -Amie! Tools Of The Trade The world is becoming populated with machines. They are with us from our birth in computer-run hospitals on through lives dominated by time and energy-conserving devices. lt has come to a point where one who doesn't understand how machines work can find himself at the mercy of those me- chanical monsters. When your car doesn't run, how are you going to get to work? When your calculator is broken, how are you going to do your math homework? When your Cuisinart is broken, how will you chop those vegies for your big party? And heaven forbid if you electric dog waxer gets jammed, how will your dog look shiney and new for guests? These dilemmas do not perplex the minds of students who are taking Industrial Arts at SHS. They can fix and assemble all machinery from A to Z. So, if your sooper-dooper pooper scoop- er goes on the blink, just get in touch with your local Shortridge handy man. fltufindustrial arts IT TAKES FOUR hands to manipulate this monster THE EXPLORATORY ELECTRONICS of a machine.

They are also economical. lt's a lot cheaper to whip up a plate of spaghetti at home than to run out to La Scala for the 312.99 special, You can sew yourself a Paul Harris ward- robe for a fraction of the cost. Surprisingly there are a lot of people running around who have no idea how to make toast or sew on a button. Once shoved out of the nest they are in for a big surprise. When the money runs out, chicken pot pies begin to be a little bit tiresome. Those old bell bottoms lose some of their original charm. There is one last hope for these unfortunate souls. Perhaps they will have the good fortune to meet up with a Home Ec. major, fresh out of Shortridge. Most of these clever graduates are willing, after a little coaxing ffinancial perhapsl, to pass on the secrets they have learned. But all the while a smug self satis- fied look will have to be tolerated on their faces. They know they made the right move, they chose Home Ec. at Shortridge, HOME ECONOMICS students, aided by Mrs. Simon, learn how to conquer the kitchen.

There was an upset in the administration to greet Ridgers with the opening of school last fall. The difference was not a lack of happiness, but rather, a lack of complete male habitation of the main office. When Mr. Donald King was transfered to Northwest High School to be- come principal, Ms. Carmen Tapales was hired to pick up where he had left off as vice principal of Shortridge. Our schools administration centers around Mr. Oldham, Ms. Tapales, and Mr. Johnson. Mr. Oldham, alias Mr. O , is in charge of buildings and grounds as well as school security. Ms. Tapales rules over class studies and scheduling. Mr. Johnson, better known as Mr. J is a far cry from the sky scraping Dr. J but is just as important to his team. Mr. J's main objectives are im- provement of leadership. He is involved in all aspects of the educational programs at the Ridge. Everywhere you roam, football, basket- ball, soccer, or baseball games, you can find the lurking shadows of these people who are indeed spirited Ridgers. Now you know whose eyes are behind the school doors to greet you at 7:00 AM, and who sees that everyone is out safely at 5-30 PM These fearless leaders of our school are sometimes forgotten when they are in great need of an aspirin or shoulder so drop in anytime to say hello just make sure you dont miss a class to do it' MR JOHNSON SHOWS the true spirit of Shortridge at a football game Robin Hood And His No Longer Merry Men 1 M.

On weekday evenings Officer Smith protects these walls, hallways, and rooms from the boogie man and all the other evil creatures out there like Atwood and his big brother Bubba. On Saturday and Sunday from 7am to 7pm Officer Prosser gallantly protects our school and from 7pm to 7am Officer King takes over. These men are hired by Century Security System and work from warehouses to stores. How do these modern day do-gooders protect our school you ask? They make routine rounds through the halls and also on the grounds. They must also make sure the freezers in the kitchen keep running. So now you see there is nothing to worry about unless you see a shiney silver badge on the floor. Then one of them has been mugged and all hell is going to break loose.

And though we think of endings, as we see our friends walk up and take that diploma, we also realize it is a time of beginnings. They have just walked one more step up the lad- der. In today's world, there are many opportu- nities for highschool students. As parents gazed at the long list of colleges the 1980 graduates planned to attend and heard of the many experiences their children hoped to have, you could see a look of amazement and pride in their eyes. Through speeches made by Cherril Threte, Martha Henn and William Ney, the senior class expressed their realization of the great value of an education at Shortridge. HERE SHE IS, Mrs. Jacqueline Greenwood, accepting a token of appreciation for all the support she has given the senior class of 1980. MR. JOHNSON, Mr. King and Mr. Oldham stand proud as they watch another class graduate from Shortridge. 58fthe graduates Other schools are reputed to have a much stricter academic structure but Shortridge has a quality much more important than that. It teaches you about lifeg about how to deal with people and really communicate. The members of the class of 1980 are now on their way to a new life. What rests with them is a memory of the people who helped them. So overwhelming was their gratitude to two devoted teachers that they decided to present them awards on this spe- cial night. Mrs. Jackie Greenwood and Mrs. Azilee Kincaide were honored by the seniors for their four years of dedication. Later, often said phrases are like, I wish I were back in high school, or, Those were the four best years of my life. Long faded are the echoes of the Class of 19809 and in their place we find the Class of 1981! ar-W-, ,www l I Y 1 U A az I' 4 l' ' fr' at A C , ' ' A 'DMT W 'ff' 2-fre!-iff ,M U 'I HMI' L ff? , ' 4' fi' riff. -. . , ' L 4 , wie E 5 -.

From the first days in September to the final days in June, the Junior Policy, under the fearless leadership of Emily DeBow, did it's best to shine. The year started right with great Homecoming successes. One of the main goals of the Junior Policy was to create a Junior Vaudeville which would be appreciat- ed by all who saw it. With this great feat under their belts the juniors got down to business making money to hold them through their senior year. The juniors found that spirit was the key to a successful stu- dent government.

Weeks in advance of Homecoming, dy- namic duo juniors Mark Durham and Ro- chelle Boyd created the ideal theme for their float, Blue Devil Tea tml Party . As the idea developed, plans were made to construct a boat', and fill it with Blue Devil Indians with red, white, and blue boxes with the name Patriots painted on them, that the Indians would fiercely throw to the ground as the float paraded by the Shortridge side of the field. After a week's hard work by dedicated juniors, the boat and it's Blue Devil mast set asail to Julius Field. Upon arrival, the ship loaded it's cargo of Patriot boxes, and Blue Devil Indians , who were prepared to dump the Patriots. The junior float won first place making all the hard work worthwhile. The junior class also won best decorated Spirit Hall and went so far as to decorate every football player's locker with balloons, streamers, and the players name and jersey number.

One clue that has been uncovered is that the freshman spon- sor, Mrs. Kathleen Wallace, can usually be found coaching the volleyball team or help- ing students improve their artistic abilities. No one knows for sure who was involved, but there was an impressive freshman float at Homecoming which adds to the excite- ment of the search. Surprisingly, this years freshman calss is the largest among the four at Shortridge. Hopefully in the next three years, it's class council will become more representative of it's dominating size.

A description of the country most often visited by students would contra- dict these thoughts because there are more foreign students in the U.S. than any other country. Nenad Ban a freshman from Za- greb Yugoslavia is among this majority. His description of life in a foreign country marks differences in American s lives that they take for granted. Nenad came to the U.S. in February of 1980 with his family because his mother was involved in lab research for IUPUI. His fa- ther a chrystalographer was on sabbatical.

Nenad also - ticed that America as a larger country in- forms it s inhabitants more about national politics rather than the world situation. Smaller countries he said are more ' - formed about what other countries are do- 'n. One of the first things I noticed is that all the cars are very big Nenad said. He en- joys life in the U.S. but he is glad he will return soon because he misses his friends.

Turn the page to find out how. 94 fecho Echo Echo Echo Echo Echo Echo Echo ln September of 1898, the first issue of The Shortridge Daily ECHO was published. It was the only daily high school newspaper in the country at the time. The Daily ECHO had editors and a staff for every day in the week which consisted of about ten to twenty students, or an entire staff of fifty to one hundred. This newspaper became famous for it's complete coverage and professional quality. Today, The Shortridge Weekly ECHO is one of the few weekly high school newspa- pers left in the nation. Most schools have gone to the magazine form of paper which they publish monthly or bimonthly. When the ECHO was forced to reduce to a weekly paper about ten years ago, a lot of the jour- nalistic enthusiasm that Shortridge had cre- ated seemed to fall by the wayside. This year we have tried to regenerate the zealous attitude that we were noted for in the past. After the creation of a new ECHO policy, we realized our goals for a successful jour- nalistic year. First, we wanted to get the Ridgers to read their newspaper. So, we tried, through entertaining and amusing sto- ries, to get students to wait anxiously every Tuesday for the famed ECHO to hit the halls. One of the major controversies of the year was whether or not we should get rid of BLAB. BLAB was a traditional gossip col- FRANCESCA MANFREDI puts her nose to the grindstone using her newly acquired skills in the print shop. umn that we tried to drop because we were advised it was bad journalism. However, many students swore they only read the ECHO so they could get their grubby little hands on the latest juicy gossip. ln the end, we decided that we couldn't afford to lose any of our readership, so we succumbed to public demand and continued to run a non-libelous gossip column which was renamed RAP to stay in sinc with the changin' times. Feature Editor, sophomore Valita Fredland commented, I thought RAP had to go in because gossip is really all most of the people look for. Other ploys to increase interest were in- terviews with famous graduate authors lKurt Vonnegutl and disc jockeys IRoger Hollowayl, polls which reported the voted most debonaire guy and most unappetizing foods, and sports stories that were so in- depth that we even quoted coaches from faraway schools for predictions on how their schools would fare against the mighty Blue Devil football and basketball teams. Sports Editor, senior Chris Keys, was the mastermind behind this years sports page. Chris said, Being the editor of the sports page, I was in charge of the most attractive and most likely-to-be-read page of the news- paper. ln my column each week I tried to write as adhesively to a specific sport as possible so that I could reconceal the non- sports-minded reader to that particular sport. Once we got the ECHO to be a popular item because of its entertainment value, we had to mold the image we wanted our paper to project. Since the editorial page is sup- posed to be the heart of every newspa- per, great emphasis was put on the quality and tone of this area. Editorial Editor, soph- omore Shawn Duff commented on her page in this way, I was glad when I was appoint- ed Editorial Editor because editorials are my favorite part of the newspaper. When I read a newspaper, I like to make comments about it, and our editorial page provided for the comments that other kids in the school had to make about controversial issues. Another one of our goals this year was to advance our own knowledge of journalistic techniques. Our nineteen member staff in- cluded five freshmen, four sophomores, eight juniors, and two seniors, and only one of these people had been on the staff for more than a year, with half of the staff being complete novices to any form of journalism. So teaching and learning about a newspaper while trying to produce a weekly was quite an accomplishment the staff as well 85 our understanding advisor, Mrs. Mary McGarvey. ll I l! l l i l ll ll I , l 1 I r I l ll I . 4 i i i i i 1 ti I I l i l -+- l l I , Chris Noel, freshman News Editor, was the epitome of the struggle the entire staff had to endure. When Chris started the year with the title of News Editor thrust upon her, she had to learn everything from the begin- ning and uphold all of her responsibilities at the same time. She said, It was pretty hard being News Editor when l first started, but with the help of the staff it became a lot easier, and soon l really enjoyed my jobf' Because we didn't have an ECHO Pho- tographer as such, all members of the staff had to learn how to use the 35mm camera that INB flndiana National Bank was as- signed as SHS's Partner in Progress l ac- quired for us. Another skill we all boasted after serving as ECHOites for an entire year was Graphic Arts experience. Each staffer was required to spend a certain amount of time every week in the Graphic Arts Lab faffec- tionately known as the Print Shopnl help- ing with paste-up and photomechanical pro- cesses. This not only taught our journalists another skill they didn't realize they sought, but it also helped to relieve the load on Mr. Donald McCauley, whose time spent pro- ducing the ECHO was estimated at 125070 per week. Finally, we all had one central goal in the back of our minds throughout the year. That was to keep the ECHO living and prospering into eternity by keeping good 'ole SHS's doors open. Fears that our school would be the one chosen for extinction this year helped to spur us to turn out the best quality stories and angles possible. We constantly sought news of activities Ridgers were participating and excelling in, like math, science, and choir contests, sports events, and even com- munity projects that the various clubs staged. Coeditor-in-chief, junior Mike Selby, gave his philosophy as an ECHO editor, Being an editor of any high school publication can- not be taken as mere hobby or just a job, neither is it just responsibility, as I have learned. lt is a duty, a duty that must be held steadfastly to just as loyal soldier holds true to his duty. Behind all of the ECHO's many motives this year, was the one quality that makes any high school a success, and that was spirit. We wanted to generate spirit by promoting spirit and by being the most spirited group in the school. The ECHO Staff feels they suc- ceeded in this endeavor.

Where's my picture? Why hasn't this copy been written yet? Jill! Car- ole! Mr. Birk! Anybody! Helpln These are common screeches heard from room 123. What is the cause of all this hysteria you ask? Without a doubt it is the yearbook staff busily working on one of the finest editions of the Annual that Shortridgers have ever laid eyes on. Scribble, scribble, scribble go the staffers writing their stories on Ridgers and what they are involved in. Snap, snap, snap go the photographers freezing action on film which becomes pictures of you and me and every- body. The year does not go by without the long evenings with tired and hungry year- bookers working diligently to get things done before the clock strikes twelve and the typewriters turn into pumpkins and the cam- eras into mice. tBy the way, the yearbook made a commendable contribution to the Annual Pumpkin Pie Bake-Off and the Soci- ety of Biological Experimentationj Seriously, all those involved in creating these 100 and some pages take great pride in their work and hope it brings you fond memories of the school year 1980-1981.

That's what the club has been ever since it's revival a couple of years back-in the picture. With such popular activities as the annual volleyball game and the trip to the Chicago Museum of Science and lndustry, it could not be otherwise. The infamous M8zM's candy sales seem to have more people involved in selling than in buying. In the midst of this blur of activity are members who have also been initiated into Mu Alpha Theta, a national math honor society. This group is a service and career oriented club with plans for speakers and semester-end tutoring. At the end of the year comes the initiation of new members who have worked their pluses and minuses together to equal excellence in mathematics. These clubs are making math jump out of the books and come alive as a real part in the life of SHS.

Students are asked to join these clubs only after three or four years of devotion and excellence. Quill and Scroll is an honorary literary group. Skilled journalists who have put in many hours on the Shortridge Annual and the Weekly Echo are awarded for their ac- complishments by being invited to join Quill and Scroll. At the annual Quill and Scroll Initiation, certificates and plaques are given to Journalist and Photographer of the Year. National Honor Society honors those stu- dents who have kept a grade average of all B's or higher for their entire SHS career. The National Honor Society promotes and encourages all Shortridgers in their studies by offering tutoring. They are trying to rein- state a scholarship program, though this un- dertaking may take several years to com- plete.

Even when a topic is so abstract that it defies quantification it is still possible to form hypotheses about it on the basis of reason alone. Because it is the pro- clivity of mankind to argue, either for its own sake of to establish certain facts, it is a useful and meaniful service to raise argument a level of sophistication. This is the essential nature of debate, The value of debate should be self-evi- dent. On the face of things, in debate we would say prima-facie fbut this changes it's basic connotationl, debate is a useful vehical for communication. In an unendless array of disputes which confront us in everyday life the value of logical and rational persuasion 100fbrain game, chess club cannot be understated. Debate focuses on a variety of thought which is almost nonexistent in our secondary school education program. Reasoning, the practice which makes all other disciplines meaniful, is too often neglected in our for- mal education. lt is ironic that the very attri- bute which sets man apart from the other animals, the ability to think in a clear and coherent fashion, is undermined by our learning institutions. Debate allows for an initial development, or a perfecting of, those rudimentary skills. Unfortunately debate has never been very popular, because of the cognition required, but this is only further evidence that its value has not been adequately conveyed. The Shortridge debate team, coached by John J. Cicak, is an effort to keep the valu- able tool of analytic reasoning alive in an SHS Fa te-Deba te! institution which has not received adequate funding and care to insure the future pro- pensity of such things. It has been Mr. Ci- cak's personal pleasure to attempt to kindle the flame of thought in each of the partici- pants in the Shortridge debate program. lt may be the subjective opinion of an interested reader that argument for its own sake is senseless and counterproduc- tive: this was after all the argument pro- posed against the sophistsg but look by pro- posing an argument against debate you have unwittingly begun one.

Analytical Book worms Understanding someone elses ideas can help you to create new ideas and re-evaluate your beliefs. One of the greatest and most available sources of ideas are books, which not only supply ideas, but explain them. For Ridgers who enjoy reading books and dis- cussing them, there is a Great Books Club. Once a month this club selects a book to read and then gathers to discuss it while munching on brownies and animal crackers, drinking tea and sitting around a warm fire. These meetings arouse the intellect, the spir- it and the body. They have become increas- ingly popular throughout the year. A wide variety of literature was discovered by many students raning from the bizarre works of SHS graduate, Kurt Vonnegut, to an excit- ing adventure story about rabbits, Watership Down by Richard Adams.

You stop to ask them what all the fluster is about and they only grab your calculator mumbling something about the silly European cookbooks which have temperatures in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. When these same people return to class the following day they seem to have suddenly gained five pounds. You might shrug this off as a normal binge at Greiners but when they start talking about things called crepes and mousse au chocolat your merely normal curiosity turns into exas- peration. Where were you last night? you ask the person who is sitting next to you. At the French Club Dessert Party of course. French Club Isn't that the club which gives an annual dinner of real French food? That's right. The dinner is to raise money for the students who go to France in the summer with the I.U. Honors program. But the dinner Francais is only part of the many activities of the French Club. We also go caroling, in French of course, in December and lead expeditions to see French films, though most members concentrate on reading the subtitles rather than listening to the dialogue. Sounds great! When can I join? As soon as we get back from the dean's office for talking in class.

While the actors learn their parts week in advance, the stage crew begins their work months in advance, painting props, building sets, repairing lights, cleaning the stage-in general getting the stage dressed properly for performances. When not dressing the stage, stage crew can be found learning cues for spotlights and cur- tains. When a performance is not in produc- tion, stagecrewers are learning new tech- niques for lighting and building props.

JAMES BROWN HAMMERS in a few loose nails before the technical rehearsal for South Pacific, the fall musical. Art Alert! Who is the lady behind all the blue, yel- low, red, and green hands that you see at- tached to the arms of a few helpless students who you see in the hall? Who is the lady who engineered the painting of the Urban Wall at 38th and Illinois? Who lead the production of the menage of silkscreened posters and t- shirts? Artist-in-residence, Sue Cerola, that's who. Mrs. Cerola, mother of Shortridge sen- ior, Tony and sophomore, Peter, was the teacher of a rather unique course during the first semester. Her open class was com- posed of students who were interested in working in many fibrous media such as batik, life-like masks, and leather. Students with free time during school, could go into Mrs. Cerola's room and discover a new world of artistic expression. Mrs. Cerola has manned several drives to prevent the closing of Shortridge. Among those were a series of silk screened posters exemplifying the activities, curricular or ex- tracurricular, in which Ridgers participated during the year and silkscreened T-shirts reading, Shortridge Is lndianapolisf' All projects were done by the students, under her guidance. Although she left to teach at another school second semester, she plans to return next year to show her students the ropes of macrame and more graphic arts media.

Why all the new people? The sudden popularity seems to have been caused by an increase in activity this year. Among the many projects undertaken by the Key Club, members painted Julius Field bleachers, raked yards, rang bells for the Salvation Army, attended Kiwanis Lun- cheons, had parties, and some attended the National Key Club Conference in New Or- leans this spring. The Key Club had as their president the outstanding Brian Reichel. He had a lot of great ideas for the club. The motto for the club this year was, Dare to Influence . All the members of the club tried to do this job throughout the year to make Shortridge a better school for everyone. In over 60 countries, AFS works to create world understanding by providing opportu- nities for young people and families to learn about other societies and cultures. Through AFS, students live with families around the world. Usually attending school while in AFS programs, they live the daily lives of the young people in that community. AFS carefully selects students between 16 and 18 who can accept and appreciate a culture that is different. Imagination, flexibil- ity, curiosity-these are some of the charac- teristics of a typical AFS student. The American Field Service is a unique program which acknowledges that peace is a dynamic concept that is nurtured both be- tween and within nations when people begin to live together creatively.

It aroused the interest of several students and along with it's creation came the creation of the steadily growing Greenhouse Club. The first job of the Green- house Club was to try and regulate the tem- perature correctly so that plants would be able to survive throughout the changing sea- sons. Charts were made to check the growth of the first plants. Students learned to give first aid to dying plants. They also learned to graft cacti and took field trips to nurseries. Shirley Jackson, one of the first members of the club, said, The most exciting thing is watching the plants grow through all the different stages, trimming them and caring for them, just as if they were people.

You get an outlook and the experience of differ- ent types of leadership positions. Also you learn through mistakes and practice how a leader should preform in public as well as within the unit. There are many activities in which you can get involved such as drill team, color guard, flag detail and Veterans Day Parade. On Veterans Day 65 personnel from the Shortridge High School unit marched in competition against units from all over the city. Thursdays are set aside for uniform day for the entire unit. Also, inspection of uni- forms and practice for the drill accompany the donning of the uniforms. There are also fund raisers which are of- ten profitable ventures. Opinions are ex- pressed freely within the unit. One of the unit members said You can really be your- self in such a well organized organization.

The girls cheer nearly every weekend in the fall to generate excitement at all the football games. During basketball season, which is in the winter, the cheerleaders have over twice as many games at which to cheer as they had in the fall. They attend anywhere from one to three games each week and the season lasts for three months in comparison to the two month football season. The cheer- L v 'S . .-.-.Q--.4 The Spirit Makers leaders also contribute their spirit to the var- ious pep rallies that are held during the year. What most sports fans don't notice is all the hours of hard work that these girls put into cheerleading even before the school year begins. All the varsity and some of the reserve cheerleaders attend cheerleading camp in the summer and they return with new cheers, chants and ideas to get more spirit and support for the teams flowing throughout the school. During the year, the cheerleaders practice at least once a week. 1980-81 VARSITY CHEERLEADERSQ Rhonda Jackson, Michele Brown, Brenda Smith, Jacqueline Slatter, Maeve Spicer tCaptainl, Stacey Sears, Diane Gore. li l. th l , new -5.3 Q. 2 , . ,L rx . , as fia Q A, an ik L iiriiiiisiis P38155 SCHSGLS llll. 9l W .womb -,MJ ., lb- - A A sgL'Q:i,ffe 'T' 11,4 120, f ,..4,w,,.6vkiufQ - M93 :sims RESERVE CHEERLEADERS lift the spirits of faithful Ridgers during a smashing football game. 1980-81 RESERVE CHEERLEADERS: Clara Burnett lCaptainl, Lisa McEachern, Wanda Edwards, Anne .Na- Daniell, Anna Harper, Julie Peacock, Donna Hughes.

Is it really worth it? Is there a magical drive which makes athletes want to leap hurdles for goals and pass the pigskin for a homerun? Could school pride or team spirit transform your basic everyday Shortridger into a viva- cious whirlwind of energy? The answer to these and many other questions is yes, yes, yes! This is what gives our teams their get up and go! The result may not be worthy of a state championship, but the excitement and enthusiasm built around these athletes proves that all is worth the effort. SHS GRID IRD With the nights getting cooler and the days shorter, throngs of Ridgers flock to nearby football fields to watch our Devils meet in battle with a rival team. The 1980 Shortridge Varsity team clawed its way to a 4-6 record under the watchful eye of coaches Gary Brown, John Haynes, and Cliff Sedan. Despite prior predictions that our team would have a catastrophic year, the coaches, from a selection of inexperi- enced players, molded a team which proved itself capable of working together. This year's team was led on offense by veteran fullback, Lucian Anderson, senior tailbacks, Gary Davis and Lester Rowe, quarterback, Greg Brase, and wide receiver, co-captain Ezra Johnson. On defense the team showed strength led by co-captain, Henry Jordan, tackle, Karl Brown, and line- backer, Jeff Outlaw. Even though our team suffered a disap- pointing first game loss to Northwest, our Blue Devils later became known as the Homecoming Spoilers as they defeated both Attucks and Arlington at their Home- comings. Unfortunately, we were defeated at our own Homecoming by the powerful, state-ranked Marshall Patriots. A high point of the season came when the Blue Devil Machine rolled over our arch rival, Broad Ripple on their home field. Returning players and coaches are opti- mistic that the Shortridge Blue Devils will be up and ready for the 1981 season. Coach Brown points out his intentions. Come on guys.

The team always seemed strongest in the second half of most games, exhibiting a powerful defense. The offense, which is not to be slighted, often caught the oppositions defense off guard with surpris- ing touchdowns. The leading ball carriers were Rick Bar- nett and Thurman Montgomery. Outstand- ing receivers were Scott Mutchmore and La- mont Rose. Stand-outs on defense were Jeff Johnson, Chris Harmon, Chris Hogue, Rick Critchfield, and Greg Willis.

The team looked sharp as they opened their season at Washington but, unfortunate- ly, lost by only three points to a state ranked team. After evening out their winfloss re- cord by beating Northwest the next night, our Satans slumped into a four game losing stretch that ended with the defeat of Scecina in our gym. The team then went on to win five of their next six games with the only loss to Northwest in the first round of the city tourney, then, once again, the squad fell into another losing streak. Although finishing with a somewhat disap- pointing record, the varsity team has much to look forward to thanks to the young up- coming talent on the reserve squad which will make the next few years look bright for basketball here at the Ridge SHS Washington Northwest Howe Chatard Lawrence North Scencina Crispus Attucks Arlington City Tourney Northwest Manual Brebeuf Lafayette Jefferson Broadripple Arsenal Technical Connersville 69 52 VARSITY BASKETBALL RECORD 75 72 69 72 80 74 62 58 Avon 73 66 62 60 56 60 51 63 69 75 59 54 62 71 43 58 76 63 71 54 67 61 JEROME JORMAN is left all alone to put away two points against Attucks.

K JV Excells The reserve basketball team this year turned out to be one of the most pleasant sports surprises of the school year. Playing well in the beginning of the season, the team began to lose more frequently toward the end of the season because, as one player put it, We lost so many of our best players to the varsity squad. Nevertheless the team an impressive 8X9 record at press time with still a game against Marshal, and the section- al tourney to play. In the previous city tour- ney the team went all the way to the semi- finals before falling to Washington. This years freshman team did not have as good a season as the reserve or varsity squad because, as starter, Scott Mutchmore stated, We just couldn't get it all together.

Well, if you could not guess, it is girl's volleyball. Unfortunately, our volleyball team is deprived of the lime- light because it must compete with such pop- ular sports as football and soccer. To no avail this group of dedicated girls practiced hard and started the season with high spirits. The season ended disappointingly with only one win for the Varsity and Junior Varsity teams combined. The JV team beat Broad Ripple with a score of 15-9, 15-12. ln spite of the record, the girls kept the attitude that what is important is not whether you win or lose but how you play the game. Just being able to play a good, fair game satisfied the team. Among the starting players on the Varsity team were Donna Stevens, Carmela Zachary, Andrea Floyd, Brenda Smith, Ta- mar Whitted, and Onyette Hamiter. Starting players for JV were Lynda Edmonds, There- sa Collier, Theresa Turner, Mary Orr, Wan- da Edwards, and Donna Cook. Since both teams were dominated by un- derclassmen, the team should have a higher scoring year next year. With the help of Miss Morton coaching Varsity and Mrs. Wallace coaching Junior Varsity, the girls are looking forward to a better season and more fans to cheer them on. lt has been a half hour, ls Carmela Zachary going to hit that ball or not? We have got to stop meeting this way! says Brenda Smith and Andrea Floyd. Volleyball is not only hard work, there is an important element of fun involved.

This is the Intramural Gymnastics Club. The members of this lively group some- how manage to drag themselves out of bed at the break of dawn and get to school in time to do a few flips here and there before going to class. The affiliates of this limber organization are easily recognizable. They are the only students hurrying through the halls desperately trying to get to their first period class with a pair of tennis shoes in one hand and warm-ups in the other. Most of the students who participate in the gymnastics club are girls that have been on the cheerleading squad at one time or another. However, there are a few excep- tions. There are some girls that simply go to do a few exercises or to practice and im- prove their tumbling skills, and as shocking as it may seem, there are several boys in the club that go to tone up their muscles and show off their macho abilities. If you can pull yourself out of bed and manage to get to school before the sun rises in the morning, you are more than welcome to join the early morning gymnastics group and try your hand at turning flips or flexing muscles.

In a year in which all running distances were converted to meters, many old track records tumbled and new metric marks were stablished. After proper training, the team took off on its first meet, realizing that its first com- petitor would be a tough one, the Washing- ton Continentals. Despite the loss to Wash- ington the team came back and won its next seven meets. They closed the season with a final record of 9 wins and 3 losses. This years team was coached by Jim Hausman who was assisted by Greg Allen and Albert Evans. The team was led by sen- iors Kenny Peacock, Thaddeus Brown, Greg Smith, and Tommie Williams. Along with setting a new batch of records, Coach Hausman's team finished fourth in the city sectionals, Attucks Invitational, and the Pike Invitational. Although the girls did not have as good a year as the boys, the team also set many records. The squad was led by seniors Valer- ie Sharpe, Sandra Petty, Cynthia Appleton, and Patricia Williams. Despite a mostly rookie team, this year's cross country team had a good season. The team, coached by Albert Evans, came to a final record of 5-7. The record easily could have been reversed had the breaks not gone against Shortridge in two very close meets. At some meets, only two minutes separated the top seven. Chasing the boys this year, was an ele- ment missing from the team for several years girls. Leading the field for the girls was junior Angie Barnett. Angie finished and impressive fourth in the city, as did the en- tire girls' team. WlTH THE LOOK of inconquerable determination Angela Watts prepares to propel the shot into space. WITH VICTORIES like this one, Tommie Williams advanced to the State. fuss. i UA, fx 39 'QQ A ' Y.Q :1'v A .

Soccer 'Strikes' Over the past few years, soccer has be- come a very popular sport in America, and the Ridge has added its own enthusiasm to- wards this exciting game. Our blossoming soccer team, The Strike, has sparked a little spirit in our students, teachers, and the many interested parents. Two of Shortridge's main men, Princi- pal Ben Johnson, and Vice-Principal Don Oldham, noticed the team's need and did their best to bring the struggling team to it's goal scoring feet. Finding a home field for both the Fall and Spring seasons was not nearly as difficult as outfitting the team with needed equipment. Still, regardless of all impedements, large or small, these two Su- permen made things work, the team now owns goal nets and will, soon, have regula- tion goals standing on its future home field on the north side of the school. The team began as a neighborhood getto- gether after school for a game of soccer. The search for someone to lead the assort- ment of talented feet and heads ended as Mr. Tom Birk and Mr. Rocky Grismore vol- unteered their services. The team's coaches lead the players through many gruelling practices in almost impossible weather. Finances for the uniforms and entry fee for the league came from the pockets of devoted members and supporters. The team's name, The Strike, was chosen in response to the teacher's strike in the Fall of '79. With financial and many other difficulties, the determined team continued to push a little harder through its 1980 Spring season, to end it with a record of 9 and 4. The Strike was the only Indianapolis Public School team in the league, and finished third in the city. JFK u,.vz ,fwaff ff. 4 st.. Mx -:'-5 August came quickly and the Strikes were on the practice field at Tarkington Park pre- paring for the Fall season. From the hot days of August to the biting cold of October, the team practiced four days a week and played games on Mondays and Wednesdays. Al- though Mr. Grismore did not coach the team in the Fall, the team continued to build with the support of dedicated Strike fans. Fighting against the tough teams on the Fall schedule, the Strike finished its season at 6 and 6. The team went proudly to the State Tour- nament consisting of some of the finest teams in the state. The tourney, for the Strike, was ended on October 21, 1980, as they were defeated in the second game of the play offs. The 1981 Spring season will begin as soon as the mercury begins to rise, and as usual, the games will be free of charge. BREAK OUT THE Bufferin, Jack Nolan.

Led by Mr. Greg Allen, the varsity squad placed third in the Brownsburg tourney, twelfth in the city tourney and third in the sectional tourney. Brian Reichel captured the only individual championship of the team. This year the Shortridge squad hosted the Manual triple dual, in which they claimed two of their dual meet victories. Freshman Ben Reichel received the most outstanding wrestler award, pinning all three of his oppo- nents. The Shortridge freshman team, coached by Mr. James Hausman, managed fourth place at the Brownsburg tourney and sev- enth place at the city tourney. Outstanding individual performances were made by Elmer Quarles, who achieved a first place at both the Brownsburg and the city tourney, and Cornell Washington who placed second at the city tourney. Brian Ntulogn and James Compton placed fourth in the city tourney. With this years freshmen joining returning varsity wrestlers Tim Pace, Joe Thomas, Dwight Edelen, Robert Carroll, David Miller, Todd Guise, Michael Avant and Anthony Warren, next year should prove to be a competitive and successful year for the Shortridge wrestlers and coaches.

Prac- tices, held daily, were light hearted and a good attempt at getting the job done. As the weather warmed up, which was a relief to third seeded Kim Johnson, so did the team. Barbara Wallen, 41 singles en- joyed several wins all in good humor . Sen- ior, Susie Stillwell, played second seed. She achieved the Most Valuable Player award for the most wins of the season. The tennis season concluded with a re- cord of more wins and less defeats than the previous year. And the best girls team re- cord and finish in the city tourney in its history.

The team's main problem was their inability to score in pressure situations, and the inconsis- tency of the pitching staff. The team was strong on defense, and had a lot of raw talent. Although the season was disappointing the diamond trotters did win the first game of the city tourney against Scecina, a very competitive and sturdy team, which they defeated with a score of 6-4. Unfortunately the team lost the second game to Washing- ton at a score of 18-9. The team's victories were over Attucks, Scecina, and Indiana Deaf. The team's most valuable player award went to Nate Bland, and the mental attitude award went to Todd Gardnerflst basel. Kevin Thomas had the highest batting average at an impressive .500. In summary, the varsity players had a losing season with one less victory from the preceding season, but the next season's ex- pectations are soaring high.

FIRST BASEMAN, Todd Gardner, reaches for the play-deciding ball. I 1? . is '- Un Deck The reserve baseball squad held together with the glue and guidance of Coach Haynes. The team record was an unimpres- sive 1-7, but did not reflect the skill and talent that actually existed on the team. The main problem that faced the team was inexperience and the fact that they had never before played as a team on the field. Coach Haynes did his best to whip them into a fire-breathing, base-dusting baseball ma- chine. The team was pitted against richer baseball programs who had remarkable tal- ent, and sometimes just plain and simple intimidation defeated the Shortridge nine be- fore they ever staggered out of the dugout. The pitching staff consisted mainly around Ralph Ross and John Weichert with a few tosses of relief here and there by Mike Selby and Darryl Crabtree. The staff was well- backed by an outstanding defensive infield and outfield. I Both of these were utilized to their fullest to hold the other team's runs. When it came to be Shortridge's turn at bat, the players who so gracefully executed Wow-look-at that plays on defense were frequently si- lenced at the plate only to return to the dugout with heads hanging low. It was this that brought on the downfall of the Big Blue Machine . There was at least one Homer hit by third baseman Michael Bollen. The season was filled with more than just serious baseball. There is as always, a lighter side to sports. The team just won't admit what that lighter side is just yet, but if you want to know, come to a game. They really need all the support that they can muster. It can truly be said that these wild guys are dedicated to the true American pastime, the one sport revered by all, the sport that fits right up there with Mom, Hotdogs, and Ap- ple pie-Baseball.

Under the direction of a new coach, Mr. Richard Crawley, alias Borus Vul- garis, the teams luck seems to be changing. Coach Crawley has drilled the team into a well working basketball squad. The team pulled together under his direction and is looking forward to next year. Une of the starting forwards, Donna Ste- vens, is the second highest scorer in the city. The other have also made great progress and plan to return next year. The team will lose only one player, Dawn Robinson, who will be graduating in June. Next fall Coach Crawley will have an experienced team to start off the season.

DONNA STEVENS pauses for a moment from her duties as girls varsity captain for a picture. ww Competitive F un Intramural bowling has become a very popular sport at Shortridge. For two years, the bowling team has been coached by Ms. Twyllah Kendrick, with help from Mr. Rocky Grismore in 1979-80. The team meets in the cafeteria on Mondays at 3:15PM, many with their own bowling balls in hand, and head out to 421 Bowling Alley. Each member is responsible to pay his own bowling fee, in- cluding the cost for two games plus shoes. This year the team consisted of eight sub- teams with four members each, and three to five alternates. When Ms. Kendrick was asked who could join the team, she an- swered, Anybody can be on the team! lt's bowling for fun. We'll be glad to work with members on their form and help them to enjoy and improve their game. The team was more serious about bowling good games this year. Five members, Karen Corn, Leroy Baker, Kirk Butler, Geary Brown, and Thurman Montgomery, broke the score of 200. Two other members, Ken- neth Watkins and Vi Dam, came very close to breaking 200 with the score of 190. Very few girls have gone out for bowling and stuck with it. This year, Theresa Chubb, Maeve Spicer, and Karen Corn were the only females actively participating. Karen Corn, a junior, was asked what she liked most about the bowling team. She replied, l've met a lot of very nice people who I would not have met if I hadn't decided to be on the team. I also like it because everyone is there to have fun, whether they win or lose.'l The same question was asked of sen- ior Kenneth Watkins who replied, It's not like everyone is out to beat everyone else, it's simply friendly competition. However, the best part comes after everyone had com- pleted their two games and we all blow our money on Space Invaders! The four bowling members with the high- est averages may participate in intermural bowling. These four members travel to All- Star Bowl where they compete against eight other township and public schools. This year Rory Bradford, Karen Corn, Kenneth Wat- kins and Randy Banks represented Shor- tridge. The members of the bowling team greatly encourage anyone who wants to improve their bowling skills and have fun at the same time to join them next year for another fan- tastic bowling season! bowling f 135 fill!

Thank you! Thank you! There were many times when working late into the night, we happened to look up and eyes meeting, wonder what had happened to all the enthusiastic little helpers that had flooded our humble yearbook office during school hours. As the work piled up on our desks, we asked ourselves how it would all get done with just four little hands attached to two over-worked bodies controlled by two tired minds. But when the work began mysteriously disappearing before our eyes, we realized this book was being created not only by two semi-experienced journalists, but by zillions of ideas, stories, and pictures found in the hearts, minds and cameras of many Ridgers. Help from students, faculty, administration, friends and relatives paved the road to the finalization of each deadline. First and foremost, we thank our advisor, Mr. Tom Birk, for reviving us with his lovely music when we'd run out of rev, and keep- ing our smiles shining when we thought the end of the world was near. Oh, we almost forgot. LEE! Come get your son! l l l 1 l l I 1 1 4 l i E r ff I i l li l ,fx ' ix' - .fr ,-v . ff? K 1' v W .Tx l . 'n -l 3: ' - X. .,,, 'x il I . ,,,, x N l ' Q V' 4 'li .

Nancy Chase, our por- table photographer, seemed to find her way into every nook and cranny at precisely the right moment, and never a hair out of place! . At the business end of this publication, Mr. Oldham and Ms. Timberman were ready and willing to help out any way they could. i At the beginning of the year they managed i to pay off past yearbook debts so we could start off right. Now wasn't that nice of them? We wish we could thank our whole staff individually the way they deserve it, particu- larly Bruce and Rob who galantly put up with our last minute picture requests and Valita who always turned up on her own to help us out. To Rocky Mr, Magic Fingers i ' Grismore, the People section is dedicated. lf r you ever need a finger massage call us. Each individual who put their heart and soul into this project deserve a hearty handshake and a kiss on the cheek. You know who you are and how indebted we are to you. Of course we cannot forget Wayne, Norm, Pam, and Mary Jo whose faces we have seen so little over the past nine months, yet whose support has always been with us. i 4 In One last thank you to the stars of these 160 pages, each one in the crowd, for giving us something to proclaim to the world. li 'r ' gang., . .

But regardless of whether Shortridge is open or closed next fall, I am confident that the spirit of Shortridge will live, leaping from the pages of this book and flooding from the lives of past students. Just as I have learned from everything else I have done at Shortridge, I learned from this book. Only you can judge the ex- actness of our definition of Shortridge, but this book will always be a success for me because it led me to do so many things, think so many thoughts, and love so many people.

In the fall of 1980, classes began on schedule at Shortridge High School on the corner of 34th and Meridian streets. Ever- ything started in the typical fashion that Ridgers were used to, the freshmen finding it easy to fit into the complex life of a high school student, and the seniors finding it impossible to consider leaving . . well, al- most impossible. ln a way though, this was more than just another usual year at the Ridge.

The Artist- in-Residence program was peaking for the third year in a row. A newly refurbished greenhouse sprang to life on the south wing. SHS students were winning essay contests, math and science competitions and foreign language awards, statewide. The story of success at Shortridge was such until a huge storm appeared on the SIGNS OF EXHAUSTION overcome the School Board during the March 3rd meeting.

A major Indianapolis point of focus, Shortridge, was again threatened with a proposed closing. These threats, as faithful Ridgers know, have persisted for about fifteen years and have become quite the old hat. Everytime the threats break out, they are recrushed by the truth behind the educational situation. The School Board members announced that because of declining enrollment and a lack of funds, closing at least one High School in 1981 was necessary. The School Board members claimed that it would be impossible to operate all ten facilities at less than functional capacity. So, in an intellectu- al brain storm, they decided to appoint a High School Facilities Task Force to analyze the current problem. The School Board would then review the findings of the Task Force, and be able to make a more educated decision about which school to close. The process appeared quite fair and thorough. The Task Force started dissecting the city schools by pin-pointing factors on which to base its analyzation. Their decision was based 5002: on matters of cost, 25070 on the community impact if the school were to be closed, and 2502, on the geographical loca- tion of the school. With these criteria in mind, they set out to analyze the ten high schools logically. They planned to visit each school for one day, touring the building in the morning, meeting with students, parents, teachers, and alumni in the afternoon, and finally, tcontinued on page 162i shortridge is indianapolisf 161 1 i . aff!

A student task force immediately sprang from the halls of Shortridge.

Finally the day we had worked for ar- rived. January 22 the halls were sparkling, the tour guides were prepared to give the Task Force members a glimpse of the rare love and togetherness of the Shortridge ex- perience. Hardest to believe was that, in spite of nearly a month of prepartion, very little was prearranged. Even if we had tried, we could not change the fact that we have one of the highest attendance rates in the city. We weren't really embarrassed, but we couldn't help having the most graduates go- ing on to college. We didn't deny that we had one of the lowest drop out rates. These given facts were only part of the equation that impressed the Task Force. That night, in Caleb Mills Hall, the Task Force heard testamonial speeches. The Shortridge fam- ily, as defendents, stated very eloquently a most factual case, supported by over 1200 people. The day had come when a con- cerned public group saw the truth about Shortridge High School. Shortridge High School was determined through research to be one of the soundest schools in the system. The Task Force rec- ommended that Chrispus Attucks High School and Northwest High School be con- solidated at Northwest under the name of Crispus Attucks, and Broad Ripple High School be consolidated with Shortridge High School at Shortridge. SHORTRIDGE STUDENTS show their devotion to SHS by holding a rally at the Education Center.

That evening, as if in a tit of pit pity for the schools suggested for closing, the School Board allowed Broad Ripple and Crispus Attucks to talk them out ot a decision based on four months of hard work. 89 speakers spoke.

While Shortridge was fast asleep, the decision was made to close Shortridge as well as John Marshall High School. Once more Ridgers were forced to come together.

The community around Shortridge immediatly took a stand and soon convinced the School Board to meet with the Task Force to discuss the ignored recommendation. Ridgers continued display- ing their support through letters, signs, meetings and finally, a candlelight vigil. Shortridge hope still burned. THE EVENING OF MARCH 1 glowed with candles of love from Shortridge supporters. AS RIDGERS AWAIT RESULTS of the meeting between student representatives and IPS officials, they express their agony of helplessness as well as their continuous hope and school spirit. The second meeting was quite well orga- nized. Shortridge was even given front row seats. Eighteen representatives, four speak- ers and fifteen minutes per school was the rule. A small spark of hope glimmered around midnight when School Board mem- bers appeared to be reconsidering their deci' sion, The tension built as they voted to keep John Marshall open.

This is how we felt as students. We felt like our education had been misconstrued into dollar signs by the leaders we look up to for that learning. The education of thousands of Indianapolis teenagers lay in the hands of the School Board members, but they proved education was the last thing on their minds. In a factual analysis they closed the school with one of the best educational situations in the system. What is to be taught, dollars or sense? So what do you do when you have been gutted? Some people simply accepted the closing, consoling themselves with the knowledge that they had learned a lesson in civics incomparable to any other. It was sug- gested to the school board that it threaten to close all schools annually so that future stu- dents might learn about city government, group dynamics, leadership, and diversion- ary tactics. At one point the sign board read, We have just begun to fight! The fighting did continue, throughout the entire spring. A new community group, C.I.T.Y. was formed. The Coalition of Indianapolis Task Groups for Youth comprised thirteen sub- committees which attempted to reverse the action taken against Shortridge. If C.I.T.Y. is not successful, we had better prepare ourselves for a drastic change in the Indianapolis chemistry. Quite the novel could be written on the effect Shortridge has on Indianapolis, and the magnitude with which it involves itself in the civic nucleus of the city. Of course Indianapolis can survive without Shortridge High School happening every day at 34th and Meridian. The Merid- ian corridor may even stay intact between 34th and Fall Creek Parkway. There is a difference, though, between Surviving', and living , The Shortridge energy is what makes Indianapolis live! Its renaissance shape radiates life.
