7+. SIL VER CREEK STUDENTS STAND OUT, by Joe Faulkner Like a jig-saw puzzle, Silver Creek High School is made up of several separate pieces. Each student represents a part of this school. Some are active in sports or clubs. Others focus their attention on meeting academic requirements, after all, this is supposed to be a place of education. Other students find that they can excel in drama or band. All of these options give SC students a chance to share in the fun of Standing Out and Blending In. w; 'zte'a'm- ml-t Man - Jr. Tim Hollkamp tupper Dem stands out as one of the many student athletes at S.C.H.S.

Believe it or not the main people responsible for this was the administration. For the first time in the history of the school P.E. went coed. Another HOld Fashioned idea bit the dust as students proved that they were mature enough to participate in gym class with the opposite sex. .01 . ....-m--- 1-7;: v :1. nuns Who are you? Fr.

WHAT DO YOU VALUE? by Angela Snider 81 Donna Stone Young people these days just dontt care about anything? Sound familiar? Why is it that most of the older generation stereotype teens as being carefree and without having any values? Perhaps the reason is that teenagers never get the opportunity to express their true feelings. How do you decide what you value the most? Senior Amy Mannix chose family, religion, and friends. The reason being as she stated, til give alot of my time to my family and especially my church. If I didn't value these things, they wouldn't be worthwhile to me, and ldonit think I would sacrifice so much of my time for them. There are certain qualities in people that we admire. Qualities such as friendship, honesty and integrity. These qualities are valued in others and in the students themselves. As Soph. Carla Kamer commented, til value my family and friends because they always understand me and they're willing to help me when I need them. Value is placed on alot of things. The value we place on life and love, sentimental value, and material value. Like Fr. Tony Bennett said, I value my family, friends, money, and beer can collection. No matter what kind of value the students at SC have, you can bet it can't be replaced at any price. What Do You Value? Tennis occupies a large part of Jr. Doug Martin's time as he tabovei intensely observes sectional play. Denise Stinson, a Soph. G.A.A. member, enjoys some athietic entertainment as she plays softball with her fellow club members. Q ...--.4 What Do You Value? Sr. Danny Curtis melom is easily satisfied, just give him a motorcycle and point to the trails. Math teacher Bob Shaw Uefn values giving of himself. Each year Shaw hosts a bonfire at his home for Geometry students. h. A; . c f anl' K m ; x. voou A.. X .th' i . What Do You Value? Many students said that they valued one another, and this certainly seems to be the case for Jr. Charlie Koehler and Soph. Ginger Wells. Sr. Amy Mannix enjoys a good laugh during a rehearsal for. The Rain Maker . S.C.H.S.'s theatre department was just one of Amy's valued activities. itwi' lE'f'li'rl ?Zfi 1wifizatu' u!

Lenny Smith and Pam Underhill lbelowl are both hoping to one day become involved in the business world. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE? by Donna Stone What do you want to be when you grow up? That's a question that Moms, Uncles, and Grandmas love to ask young children, and children are usually quick with a reply. Fireman, nurse, policeman, and doctor are just a few of their fantasies. However, by the time most of these kids reach high school those fantasies seem to disappear, and the world becomes a little more complex. That's the way the world appears to most 8. C. students as they prepare for college and their awaiting futures. As Sr. Debbie Staton replies, My future plans are very important to me. Even though my plans are uncertain, I will attend college and enter into the field of business or possibly law. The ltBusiness World appeals to Jr. Pam Underhill as she stated, tllid like to go into business, possibly working at a bank. Whatever career you seek most people would like to become rich and famous. As Jr. Lenny Smith said, I plan to attend college, and open my own business. That way I would be off on Sundays, and I'll be my own boss. I'd also like to become a millionaire. No matter what your fantasy may be; lawyer, business person. or banker, you can bet that 8.0. students consider their future very important, and face their perspective careers with alot of courage and determination.

AL ONE A GA IN, NA TURALL Y By: Kevin Hughes Through the years as time has made your life more and more com- plicated, your personal privacy has become a true commodity. Your friends, family, and that special someone have all pitched in to make your time alone rare indeed. But when you've had that precious time to be by yourself what have you done? Listened to records, watched T.V., or just taken a drive? Do you ponder, praise, or down grade your accomplishments in private? Are you subdued or outgoing? Are you a different person in private than when you're in the public eye? Does the real you come out? You are the only one who can answer these questions. You,re the only person who knows the private you-the real you. As long as you live, no matter where you are or what you're doing, your privacy is yours, and that's the special part of you that no one can ever take away. Below: Sophs.

He was always in your way and his father knew everything there was to know. And talk about selfish, the little fellow was always wanting to play with your toys. To make matters worse your mother made you share things with him. This only made you dislike him more and you vowed that you hated him. A week later though, he was your best friend and anybody that said differently was a no good rotten liar. Soph. Kim Neville tcentert seems annoyed with Forrest Adamis fifth pass of the evening at the Sophomore dance. Members of the Memphis Mafia' tabovei pay tribute to their founder John Garr.

Well, now youtve grown older and since then youtve experienced several such friendships, and if youire lucky you have learned alot about the true meaning of the word, friend . For a true friend is indeed a rarity in todayts world where ttnumber one is all that counts. A friend is there to laugh with you and stands by in silence when others laugh at you, and most important- ly you mean as much to a friend as he means to you.

As you thumb through these pages, forget about the trials and tribulations of a normal school day and reminisce about the fun-filled life that exists after 3:00. This part of the yearbook recalls those entertaining hours as it highlights the activities that made the 1978-79 school year distinct. Left: Kim Grangier, Frosh., and Judy O'Brien, Frosh.

That's when the student's outside life actually begins and the hassles of readin, ritin, and rithmetic are far behind them. Students find numerous ways to forget schoolwork. Working for extra money is one way of spending their spare time. As one student said, ttWorking keeps me out of trouble at home because Pm always busy. Other male students find great satisfaction in being members of the Hot Rod Association, and keeping their cars spiffy. Who could forget those booming Saturday nights which wouldn't be alive, without buzzing Frisch's or McDonaldis? Working, four wheeling, buzzing Frisch's, intramurais, and just having fun are all ways that S.C. Students par- ticipate in to enjoy their after-hours life. .T' : n'Evhi. ... ' V y i?

Both plays were directed by Mrs. Ems. 'tRainmakerl' was presented on October 11. 13, and 14. I'The Wizard of 02 was presented for children at Sellersburg Elementary School on December 14 and the Jay-She's Christmas Dinner on the 16th. This play was performed primarily by amateur performers. How does it feel to act under the lights? Several actors revealed their views. Tami Jones. Fr.. who performed in ttThe Wizard of Oz commented. Some parts are challenging. some are position of stage fright. Dorothy, in HThe Wizard of 02 , was portrayed by Missy Beyl, Jr.. who stated, The practices are fun when the right people are involved. I dont get nervous or embarrassed in front of people and that's important. Mrs. Ems is a very good director who makes everybody feel important. I like that. Ron Troub, Soph.. who appeared in both plays. stated. HAt first I was terrified, but as the time went on the characters and I became as one. It seemed as if I had been doing it all my life. Chuck Jennings, a ttRainmaker performer, commented, 'tActing is like a rollercoaster ride, when you get on and it starts going. you're scared and it takes your breath away. When you get off; though, you see how much fun it is and you want to ride it again! 20 not. but all characters face the daring ' .:,..'.......;..L:...ix. .5;::V::. s.,..u;.:.::.;.s , V - 3t' '1, ' Wm Wewwwv re:- 5:: ,w 7.7mm- ,7 W m -' - ,7 .i.

This is the same idealism that exists at Silver Creek as students participate in numerous holiday activities. The annual Holiday Tourney, decorat- ing trees and classrooms, throwing parties by the FHA. for the M-1 classes. These are just a few of the many festivities that occur during the Yule season. Family life is also important as one student said, HHolidays bring a special togetherness for our family that seems to dwindle throughout the year. As every year rolls around the Holiday spirit seems to revive itself. A spirit that rings true as students draw closer to family and friends, and participate in various Holiday activities.

DEFINITEL Y ORA NGE CRUSH FOR SIL VER CREEK IN ,79 BY: Joe Faulkner The competitive spirit is the essence of any athlete; this is what makes up a successful sports program. Putting forth the best possible effort in an attempt to achieve one common goal - perfection. Though impossible to achieve, athletic excellence is sought. Students at Silver Creek can choose from any of eleven varsity sports in which to compete. They can hit, run, stroke, spike, dribble, shoot, pass, steal, or serve their way into stardom. And the price for this honor of high esteem and recognition? Simply numerous hours of preparation, some athletic intuition, innate ability and a few breaks. When comparing the number of amateur athletes to professionals, it is easy to see that the success rate is low. Still, however, it is mants nature to strive for the improbable. It is this constant pursuit of perfection which results in ever improving athletic standards. As stated by Ralph Waldo Emmerson; ttNothing was ever achieved without enthusiasm. This statement about life can be carried over into the sports world where dreams are both shattered and fulfilled and hearts are broken and over-joyed.

The season couldlve been better, but a lot of last years runners didnlt run. The number one runner and MVP was Tim Smith, Jr. Smith stated, ttl run cross country because I like it very much and I enjoy running a lot. Tim Hollkamp, Jr. commented; ltRunning cross country is fun because it is a sport that requires you to be in your best possible physical condition. It also makes you feel good because not too many people can hack it. Finally, Senior David Stotts confessed, 'tl ran cross country because Mr. Trinkle didn't know what kind of team he would have because they were weak. It got me in good condition for basketball and it was a lot of fun. Above right: The SC. cross country team is off and running in an early season meet with Austin.

Under the outstanding direction of third year coach Mike Crabtree, the Dragons were able to shock more than just the sportsworld. The perennial powers of high school tennis in Southern Indiana were in for a shock of their own. Jeffersonville, New Albany, Providence, and Floyd Central all tasted defeat at the hands of the 8.0. Netmen. The Dragons, however, would have gladly traded these four victories for just two wins over the Clarksville Generals. An early season loss to the Generals cost the Dragons the Mid-Southern Conference Championship by one game. Clarksville claimed the crown with a 9-0 record. But the Dragons had their chance for revenge, this time in the championship match of the New Albany Sectional. It was not meant to be, however, as the Generals came out on top again by a score of 3-2. Though second place was the best finish ever for Dragon Tennis, it was a very unfitting end to a spectacular season. 1978 Boys' Tennis Team: lupper left.

Although the overall record improved from 5-14 to 8-11, the regular season was not without its disappointments. In the sectional, the team made it all the way to the semifinals. The Dragons spiked Scottsburg 15-11, 15-6, and edged Charleston 15-9, 10-15, 15-10, before losing in the semifinals to Madison. The Cubs, eventual winners, defeated Silver Creek by the narrow score of 8-15, 15-12, 15-6.

However, this year was a different story as the class of 80 won it in high fashion. In the opening game, the juniors defeated the freshmen, 80-58. Tim Robinson was the tournament high scorer with 29 points. Mark Conroy, freshman, was right behind with 26. in the second game the sophomores defeated the seniors 44-35. Joe Eckert was high point man for the sophomores with 24 points. The seniors were led by Mike Smith with 14. The seniors, however, got a measure of revenge as they defeated the fresh- men 41-31 in the consolation game. Danny Montgomery led all scorers with 14 and Denny Eckert had 11 for the freshmen. In the championship game the juniors turned a close game into a route by romping the sophomores 59-37. Ed Barnett and Joe Eckert each collected 11 points.

Turning dainty young ladies into rugged varsity basketball players isnit the easiest coaching job there is. Especially if the girls are no more experienced in the game of basketball than boys are at playing with dolls. Aside from this, Sherri Roberts took on the tasks of developing the talents of several young girls and molded them into a team in only her first year of coaching. This team, led by Jr. Sharon Schafer, So. Donna Prather, and Fr. Lorraine Karsner, completed the first non-losing season in the history of girls' J.V. basketball at Silver Creek. With a break even 7-7 record, Coach Roberts extended the fine Silver Creek winning tradition into one of the previously unsuccessful areas of the Dragon athletic program.

Varsity girls come along wa y in 4 Years by Kevin Hughes In only its fourth year of existence, the girls, varsity basketball team rolled to yet another successful season in 1978-79. Under the guidance of second year coach Matt Thomas, the dragonladies dribbled their way to a 12-4 regular season record. Among those 12 victories were eight in the conference where the girls placed 2nd to the semi-state bound Scottsburg Warriors. And for the 3rd consecutive year the girls cut down the nets as the Charlestown Holiday Tournament Champions. Coach Thomas' team was led in both scoring and assists by outstanding Sr. guard, Rhonda Blanton. Rhonda averaged over 21 points a game while distributing 80 assists throughout the year. Next in scoring was center Janet Popp, also a senior, who scored nearly 11 points a game while leading the team in rebounds with 15 a contest. The team graduated six seniors in 1979, many of whom were playing as freshmen when girls basketball was started at Silver Creek in 1975.

Borden Girls fall short for 3rd time by Keith Gilbert The final game of the Silver Creek girls basketball sectional matched the two favored teams, Silver Creek and Borden. The route to the finals for both teams was, for the most part, easy. Game one was expected to be close and it was. 8.0. faced 660A; shooting by Clarksville, but still pulled out a 60-52 victory. Rhonda Blanton and Janet Popp combined for 43 points. In game two, Henryville shot a woefull 110A, from the field and was routed by Borden 49-29. The third game sported balanced scoring by the Dragonladies as they whipped Charlestown 50-33. All but one player scored for the Dragons. The championship game was the matchup almost everyone predicted would come. The oddsmakers gave 8.0. a slight edge because Borden narrowly defeated the Dragons once in the regular season, and odds were that the Braves could not do it twice in one season, and even more importantly on the Dragons own floor. Unfortunately for Silver Creek, they did, 51-49. 8.0 was crippled by the loss of Blanton and Lisa Stein to fouls in the late stages of the game. This marked the third straight time that the Dragons lost in the championship game.

Crush In 79 . . .h 89V ' 9-0 Dragons unbeatable in early going by Joe Faulkner Opening the varsity basketball season in a traditional manner, Silver Creek downed Henryville 77-62 to kick off what was to become one of the finest seasons in the great history of SC roundball. The 1978-79 team was small in number, with only an eight man roster, but effective in execution. Through the leadership of five seniors iNorm Pennington, Gary Burton, David Stotts, Kenny Robinson, Alan Cooki The Orange Crusht, a newly applied name for the mighty Dragons, was able to waltz through nine straight games without a loss. The Dragons only defeat in the first half of the season came in the championship game of their own Holiday Tourney where Providence upset them 62-61. Other than Providence, only fifth ranked Columbus East was able to put a blemish on the Orange Crushls record. The Olympians did this on the second to the last game of the regular season when they downed the visiting Dragons 71-57. The 14 point win margin was chiefly a result of the lop-sided freethrow shooting. Silver Creek made only seven shots from the stripe compared to 19 freebies scored by the host. After losing to Columbus, the Dragons returned home to play their last game of the year at good ole S.C.H.S. The result was pleasant; Silver Creek defeated Lanesville 75-45 to end a spectacular 18-2 season. Sr. guard David Stotts is good for two in a late season game against 5th ranked Columbus East. Dragons give royal performance by Kevin Hughes SILVER CREEK CROWNS ROYALTY, read the beginning of the caption under Sr. Gay Stewarts' picture in ttThe Evening News on Saturday Jan. 24. On the previous night Silver Creek had indeed crowned its royalty, and there was none more royally elegant than newly crowned, queen Gay Stewart. In a ceremony between the J.V. and Varsity contest against Southwestern, the crowning took place. Three seniors, Carrie Haas, Pam Willinger, and Gay were up for the crown. The tension built as the queen candidates and their escorts walked glowingly down the isle, while student council member Cindy Smith read the candidates' names, identified their parents, and listed the activities of each girl. Finally the preliminary events were over and the envelope was opened. Gayts name rang loud and true throughout the gym and last year's queen, Indiana University freshman, Tammy Newkirk, stepped up to place the coveted crown on the new queents head. With the coronation behind her, Gay had to but sit and watch as the Dragons, led by Kenny Robinsonis 16 points, carefully dismantled the Rebels of Southwestern 63-49. Little did Gay, the Dragons, or the fans realize that this game was a preview of the upcoming Madison Sectional Championship which would find the Dragons once again defeating the Rebels, 55-47. 68 ... tr'r l Reigning over the Homecoming Game is newly crowned queen Gay Stewart tabovei.

The Winning Habit Whenever an action is consciously repeated over and over, it soon becomes a subconsious reflex commonly known as a habit. Habits generally carry bad connotations; there are, however, some good habits. A good habit for an athletic program for instance, is winning and this year's Dragon squad certainly had a healthy dose of success. The Orange Crush completed the regular season with an 18-2 record and entered the Madison Sectional as the Heavy Favorite. And, as anticipated, Silver Creek won its second straight sectional crown.

I9 t HQr ,1 f Linksments goals bring success by Kevin Hughes As the 1979 golf season opened, the Dragon Linksmen set many goals and aspirations. Three major goals they hoped to achieve were: Make a better showing in the conference, the Corydon Invitational, and the sectional. They had every right to believe they could meet these goals with everyone returning from the '78 campaign, which, despite a losing record was the best golf team at 8.0. in 3 years. Soon the season was underway and the Dragons set out to capture their goals. By mid-season, the team, which was paced by the steady play of Srs. Gary Burton tMedaIistI, Kevin Hughes, and Jr. Jeff Harrell, stood even at 6-6. They had begun to play better, however, and finished the regular season at 11-8 heading into the conference. In the tournament, despite their 2nd to worst match of the year, they finished 7th as compared to 9th a year ago. They had reached one of their goals. In the 16 team Corydon Invitational, the Dragons were out to better last years 14th place finish. And better they did, finishing 7th with a team score of 331. Two goals down and one to go. In the 78 sectional S.C. finished 11th, but heading into the tournament this year they were ranked 8th in the field. It has often been said that success is found in the reaching of goals. For the 79 Silver Creek Linksmen this statement says it all. Sr. Linksmen, C. J. Meyer tupper rightI comes off the 9th tee with a three iron shot at the luxurious Speed Country Club.

Girls net honor by Joe Faulkner It was an honorable year for the 1979 girls, tennis team. The girls were honored to have tennis specialist Mike Crabtree for a coach, and Crabtree likewise was honored to coach the best squad in the short three year history of the sport at Silver Creek. The team was so well balanced that three girls, Srs. Thresa Blincoe, Amy Mannix, and Jamie Markland, shared the honor of playing number one singles for the Dragons. Through their hardwork, desire, and leadership, the team completed its best season ever with a 7-4 record. The girls also finished the year with a 7-2 conference record which was good enough to earn them second place behind undefeated Brownstown. In what was to be the last day of Dragon tennis for the girls, Amy, Jamie, and Thresa, all made a strong showing in the New Albany sectional. Playing doubles with Jr. Caroline Fraley, Markland advanced to the second round before her high school career came to an end. Blincoe and Mannix, both playing singles, survived the first two rounds of the tournament before they were eliminated in their third match of the day. Though the girls were certainly capable of doing this well in the sectional, no one expected their surprising performance. But what better way to end an honorable year than with an honorable performance? 1979 Girls Tennis Team Row 1 tL-Rl: Coach Mike Crabtree, Amy Stokes, Tammy Jones, Thresa Blincoe, Janetta Dell.

Michigan team loses to Dragons By: Donna Stone They came from Bronson, Michigan one sunny, bright April day. Traveling in Lincoln Continentals, and dressed in dazzling uniforms, who were these people and what was their purpose? This group of high school students made up the Bronson Varsity Baseball Team from a school of an enrollment of approximately 600, and they were on tour of Southern Indiana. While on tour, besides playing Silver Creek they also challenged Jeffersonville. Bronson is a medium-size Polish Community and their team has won a state championship in their division, 2 out of the last 5 seasons. In order to raise money for the tour, which was during their Spring Break, teammates worked at an annual community festival, and held carwashes during the summer. The money gathered was used entirely for the tour. Bronson's program got a lot of respect from Coach Trinkle, as he commented, I think it's really good for our team to play good competition. But I'm very impressed with the program that they have set up. Since the players take so much time and work so hard, that's why they are so good. The Mighty Dragons defeated Bronson, 5-3, and Jeffersonville also took a doubleheader from them. However, this was the first time the Bronson team had played because of the severe weather in Michigan. Leading hitter, Gary Burton. and Chuck Jennings watch Bronson's pitcher warm-up in between innings. Seniors lead eigh th ranked 5. C. dragons by Joe Faquner When the class of 1979 entered Silver Creek in 1975, people throughout the community speculated on the athletic achievements that the young men of the class would make in the four years to come. Most of the attention was focused on basketbalI, even though several students possessed a keen ability for baseball. Maybethe lack of attention and over exposure was for the best. After all, four years later the baseball team easily surpassed the wildest dreams of those speculators back in '75. After winning nine straight ball games the varsity baseball team iguided by Srs. Gary Burton, Norm Pennington, David Stotts, Chuck Jennings, and Johnny Hutchinsoni broke into the states top 20. Though the Dragons lost a few games during the year they maintained their position in the rankings. Jrs. Ed Barnett, Jerry Kime, Ray Kopp, and Jim Turk along with Soph. Doug McCartin gave Silver Creek the balance it needed to be a top notch club. Burton led the team at the plate, hitting above the .500 mark, and Pennington provided the main thrust to the Dragons' defense whenever he took to the mound. In his four year career, Norm won over 35 games, included in these were two shutouts and a no-hitter in his senior year. 1979 Varsity Baseball Team: Row 1 tL-Ri: Greg Miller, Dave Stotts, Chuck Jennings, Alan Cook, John Hutchinson, Norm Pennington, Gary Burton, and Mgr.

Others, however, stayed to participate in the athletic events offered to the women of S.C.H.S. Of the options, softball proved to be one of the more successful sports. In only its second year of existence, the team compiled a 5-6 record heading into competition in the New Albany tournament. Under the direction of first year coach, Sherri Roberts, the girls came to within one run of defeating highly reguarded New Albany. The Bulldogs, however, were able to beat the Dragons at their best as Sr. Tonya Barnett pointed out. ttWe really didn't play that good in the games we won, she said.

The freshmen defeated the sophomores 27-26 behind Kelly Grangier's 11 points. The final game was no contest. The Seniors crushed the Juniors 38-12 for their second straight impressive victory. Janet Popp and Carrie Haas combined for 26 points for the winners while Beth Hogan and Sharon Schafer each had four for the losers.

Fifteen highly talented, very attractive, seldom available young ladies rant and raved, hooted and hollered, and basically had a good time as Silver Creek completed another successful campaign. With five seniors cheering for the varsity, the Dragons enjoyed having the best group of spirit arousers in the area. The squad was so good that it was named as one of the top 10 groups at a national cheerleading clinic at Indiana University. What made them so good? For one thing experience. Each of the seniors had at least two years varsity seniority. This, however, wasn't the only thing that made them top notch performers. Their flawless coordination accompanied by unsurpassed gymnastic ability made Tracey, Pam, Gay, Carrie, Maggie, Linda and Mara the envy of area cheerleaders. 1978-79 Junior Varsity Cheerleading squad tupper Ieftt Row 1 Kim Stinson.

BEING WITH THE GANG, AFTER SCHOOL The organizations at Silver Creek High School had . to overcome a major obstacle during the 1978-79 school year. The big road block was that there was no activity periods and the clubs had to meet out of school time. Some clubs didnit even get to participate in activities because the organization could not get a meeting scheduled because many members were employed or participated in athletics. Even though there was a major obstacle most of the clubs were determined to make this school year a success. The Spanish club made this year a rousing success by arranging both a Halloween party, and a Christmas party. They also planned a trip to Mexico. The FFA stayed active as they went to dairy judging and soil judging contests. The future farmers also went to the Kentucky State Fair and the farm machinery show. The FHA planned a lot of activities as they went to a Grand Old Opry show, and they also took a trip to Kings Island. During the Fall semester the Future Homemakers had a party for the Special Education students. The FHA also visited the Maple Manor home to entertain the elderly. The GAA members didnit let the lack of an activity period hamper their activities. The GAA was probably the most active of all of the clubs at 8.0. Visiting the Waky Haunted House, girls basketball intramurals, softball, and gymnastics were just some of the activities that the GAA participated in.

By Leah Sells Readini, iRitini, iNi 'Rithmeticii Not much fun, but academics is the life blood of school. There is more of a selection of academic classes at Silver Creek than just the Three Fits . Some students feel that this selection could be broader as Jr., Julie VanMeter, stated, Silver Creek should offer us more classes so that we could have a choice instead of being forced into taking a class merely for lack of anything better to take. If a student isnit satisfied with a purely academic schedule, maybe he should try his luck a little further on down the road. He's likely to meet up with Prosser Vocational school. This school offers a variety of vocational courses to the high school student for high school credits. Students at 8.0. are free to attend Prosser and 87 do. Whether it be college or a good, steady job, Silver Creek is doing its best to prepare students for life after school .

Con tract negotiations to classroom management by Leah Sells Where would Silver Creek be without our teachers? On December 4, 1978 the answer to this question was made very clear. The teachers at 8.0. didnit seem to be pleased with the Administration's contract offer this year. So . . . after a number of meetings with the West Clark School Board and no favorable solution in sight, the teachers took it upon themselves to ivery convenientlyi all need their personal leave day - on the same day! This mass Taking of the Personal Day resulted in several itteacher lacking classrooms on that memorable December 4. What did the faculty members gain from this phenomenal event? Well, they captured immense amounts of T.V. coverage on all stations throughout the winter months. But, mainly, a contract agreement was signed in late February, a two-year pact was made with the school board, and to help the teachers fight inflation, an 8.5Vo pay increase was made for this year. The teachers at 8.0. spend a lot more time in school than they do walking out. Several faculty members coach various sports ibasketball, baseball, track, volleyball, etc.l Other teachers help out at sports events taking money or tickets and keeping statistics for the team. Most teachers sponsor one or more of the many clubs at Silver Creek.

Political strateg y to child abuse to global wars BY: Betsy Boman Mock trials and studying the first and second World Wars are just a couple of the exciting topics studied in the Silver Creek History classes. There are also a mass of lectures, and films to be viewed to help enhance the knowledge of the students. And the psychology students are always wrapped up in encountering the vast regions of the human mind. What do the students think about such an educational class? Jolynn Dietrich, Jr., commented, llWe see more films than anything, but its still great. I really didn't like History until the last 2 years. Since I had Mr. Thomas and Mr. Mattox, I enjoy History! And Junior Mary Mannix commented about Mr. Mattox, itHe really knows his History! I also think his favorite hobby is showing movies T.J. Morris stated, tlThroughout my school years I have found lectures and reading in class boring, but now I have something more abhorant, Film strips . . .

Kelly Cook stated, til don't like it because I think the girls slow us down. They take a lot longer to do things than we do. by Todd Haas This year the freshmen, as did the sophomores, got their first look at a new system of Physical Education.

Snake bites to cage ball to weight machines by Todd Haas From this school year on, Physical Education classes will have a very different format. This year marked the first CO-ED Physical Education classes. The sophomores took P.E. everyday at Silver Creek during the first semester while the freshmen did likewise the second semester. Sophomore Laura Krajnak said, At first i think everyone was a little shy about having class together. CO-ED Health is about the same as any other class. To me CO-ED P.E. and s Health are a lot better than I thought they would be. Other sophomores had definite opinions about the new system. Sherry Adams comment- ed, tll would like to have P.E. all year round. CO-Ed P.E. teacher Linda Tucker stated, itl feel that some students don't try to do as much as before. Some students are embarrassed to attempt activities. They feel they will not do well. Mrs. Tucker also added that she dislikes having the new pass-fail system of grading. She concluded, ifThe students do only enough to get by. Sophomore Paul Guernsey said, ltThe CO-ED P.E. class is cool. At least you have more to look at than just boys though a CO-ED lockerroom would be an improvement. Not everyone liked CO-ED P.E. Sophomore Brenda Johnson stated, I personally think its more fun to not have CO-ED P.E. Above, Doug Caswell Sr., and Linda Tucker record swimming scores during a Sophomore P.E. class.

Approximately eighty Silver Creek students attended Prosser's morning, afternoon, and evening classes. Juniors and seniors may go to the center and enroll in classes such as Horticulture, Data Processing, Distributive Ed., Mechanics, Drafting, Cosmetology, and Welding. Seniors are offered courses in Intensive Office Lab, Health Occupations, and Computer Key Punch.

Forced busing to an evening shift to computer sciences By: Therese Warren This year Prosser had a new twist. The school board presented a new rule to Prosser students that stated they had to ride the bus. Students, on the other hand, were determined to drive. This caused quite a bit of trouble for both students and the administration. West Clark schools are not responsible for accidents off the school grounds. Since students continued to drive, Mr. Beyl was forced to take roll on the bus everyday. The problem was finally resolved after stiff enforcement. The only students exempted from the bus rule were those who attended evening classes at the area vocational school. Not many people knew that classes at Prosser were offered from 3:20 - 6:00 PM. Not all courses available during the day are offered at night. Below: Sr. Mike AHen removes the freezer insulation during a heating and air conditioning course.

Marbles to Volcanoes by Leah Sells What exactly are the Earth and General Science classes like? And what makes them so great? Well, one thing that they seem to have going for them is the teacher - Mr. Gerald Sprinkle. He is most definitely well liked by the majority of his students. After allowing a few of the General Science classes to put their opinions of the class into writing, what you end up with is a stack of papers which mostly say It's cool! and Its boring! One comment coming from Pat Davis, soph., was: Sometimes its boring! Sometimes its not! But Mr. Sprinkle is a teacher who tries to help the student a lot! This is a good class! One thought in particular seemed to be quite unique. It was offered by Frosh, George Meyer and goes like this, iiln science we use marbles, toy cars, and balls. I think Mr. Sprinkle just likes to play with toys! Earth science turned out to be a little harder than most students expected according to C.J. Meyer, Sr., as he commented, Earth Science is my most interesting course. I have learned a lot about the earth. The reason I took the course was for an easy A but I soon found out it was not so easy. Robin Roberts, also a Junior, summed up her thoughts concerning Earth Science saying, Mr. Sprinkle is great, the class is ok, but the subject is the pits!

They are: woodworking, metal working, and drafting. The largest and most popular class, woodworking, combines the skill of the hands with the knowledge of using machines. Since shop space in 8.0. is limited, the courses are ' only allowed a certain number of students as well as machinery. Sophomore, Kenny Graf, commented, ttl like shop. Its a good way to goof-off, but you can still get a good grade? The second course, metal working, is an area that is taught in both shop and agriculture While in metal shop, a student learns to arc and gas weld, do boundry work, and use a metal lathe. Drafting is the third shop course available. This class can be helpful for students who plan to enter architecture or an engineering field. Drafting is a one semester course that is offered every two years. The ever-popular General Shop course is a class that combines these three major courses. Instructor Mr. Dale Ricketts said, ttGeneral Shop is an orientation class. We give the students a general background in each of three courses and then they make up their minds if they would like to pursue one of the major courses.

Christmas carols to pinatas by Betsy Boman If you weren't involved in Spanish during the '78-'79 school year, there were a lot of exciting events you missed out on. First, the annual Christmas party was held on December 13 at Tommy Lancaster's in New Albany where Spanish students ate at the buffet and danced afterwards. Also to decorate for the holidays, the Spanish classes constructed pinatas and Christmas cards. There was also the ever famous annual trip to Mexico on March 15-22. The Spanish teachers during '78-'79 were Mrs. LeNola Matheny and Mrs. Linda Dice: who was a year-long substitute for Mrs. Heiligenberg who was on pregnancy leave. Spanish class members commented on what it's like studying a foreign culture. Angie Fackler, Soph., explained, I really like Spanish because it's something different and you get to learn something other people don't know. And on the French side of things . . . One of the most romantic languages in the world is said to be French. Four years are taught at S.C.H.S. by Mrs. LeNola Matheny, who has the French 2,3,4, and Ms. Linda Richardson who has the French 1 classes. Along with having their Christmas party December 10, French students also toured the city of New Orleans, March 1-6. To help raise the money needed they had bake sales and a car wash.

Foreign foods to crafts to home management skills BY: Betsy Boman When Home Ec. teachers Mrs. Diefenbach and Mrs. Jackson were informed that the class enrollment was down, they proceeded to rack their brains to try to come up with something that would be interesting enough to increase enrollment. As it turned out, they both came up with the idea of a Crafts and Foreign Foods class. Mrs. Jackson, who teaches the crafts class, explained, ttWe tried to think of classes that students were interested in, and something the students could use? This year the crafts class did everything from wood carving to decorating eggs at Easter. The Foreign Foods classes cooked foods from countries such as Germany, France, and even China! Maria Broadus' mother, who is a native Italian, was there to explain how to make authentic Italian Lasagna! Mrs. Diefenbach, who teaches the Foreign Foods class, explained, The students chose what countries they wanted to study and also what foods they wanted to prepare. There were 30 students enrolled in Crafts and 20 in Foreign Foods. What do the students think about these classes?

Suppose you saw Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, or even Cher walking down the stage at Silver Creek? Of course the chances of that happening are very slim; but on November 10th, you might have been deceived. The Silver Creek band sponsored a ltCelebrity Showcase where community businessmen, including some of the S.C. faculty, dressed up like famous women celebrities to help raise money for the bands new uniforms. But raising money wasnlt all the band did. They also entertained other schools by going on concert tours. They also participated in the Harvest Homecoming and Steamboat Days parades. Band director, Mr. Paul Waggoner, summed up the reasons for these tours: m To entertain other student bodies. t2l To acquire an audience for the bandsl many weeks of preparation. t3l To give the band class a meaningful experience and field trip. Ml To provide a fine reason for reaching perfection through class work and home work. t5l Applause, Applause, Applause!

Cheese sales to new uniforms to concerts By Betsy Boman After 20 years with the same uniforms, the Silver Creek High School Band finally achieved their goal and purchased new ones. In order to purchase the uniforms, the band members had to come up with half the cost and the School Board promised to match that amount. The eventual money raised was $9,000. Activities the band members participated in to help raise the necessary money were; candy and cheese sales, two auctions, and a celebrity showcase. One of the changes that will be taking place next year is that a new Band Director will be appearing. After 30 years of band direction, Mr. Paul Waggoner has decided to retire. Mr. Waggoner received his education at the University of Louisville and Indiana University where he received a Bachelors in music and a Master's in Administration. His son, Dino, and Daughter, Julie, also attended Silver Creek; and his daughter became a drum majorette. Mr. Waggoner explained that because of health reasons he is switching from senior high band directing to teaching elementary music. Tim Wells, Sr. had this to say about Mr. Waggoner, til've been in the Band since 6th grade and I think Mr. Waggonerts one of the best directors . . .

A new director to concert tours to selling pennants Lift your voices in song, and sing, sing, sing! This is especially good advice if your fifth period class just happens to be choir. This school year the choir staged several concerts. They did a spring concert, a Christmas concert, and several shows were performed for various grade schools such as Borden, Sellersburg, and Stout. The choir members labored all year raising money with car washes, bake sales, and the peddling of orange and blue Silver Creek pennants. So, far, their masses of money have set in the treasury collecting interest. When, where, and how this money will be put to use is unknown. The money will most likely be used for a big purchase in the future. The leading figure behind all of the choir's ventures is Linda Richardson. Being choir director at Silver Creek is a brand new experience for her, due to the fact that it was her first year of teaching. All of her students felt that Miss Richardson did an exceptional job with her new task. Asked her opinion of choir class, Belinda Adams, Jr., commented, It's a really good class if you are interested in singing. It would be a lot better if certain students would stop taking it for an easy credit and act like they care a little about learning something.

The Accounting students also got their chance to venture into the Wonderful World of Computers when they toured S. I. Computer last Spring. And of course thereis the endless problems and timed-writings of typing to boggle the mind and ttfingers. Art, not a very familiar word around Silver Creek, but we do have art classes.

Vincent Havens, Jr. Clint Hawkins, Fr. Sandy Hawkins, Jr. by: Betsy Boman ttGet your car washed! Need your car washed sir? These are some words you might have heard if you drove past Don Kerr's appliance Center on September 30. A car wash was sponsored by the French club to help raise money for the trip to New Orleans in March. Even though rain put quite a damper on the occasion, the French students did, however, manage to raise about $14.00. The students that participated in this event were as follows: Betsy Boman, Chrystal Chapman, Lilly Chapman, Cindy Smith, and Karen Smith. Some of the students offered comments about the car wash. Lilly Chapman, Sr., explained, ttlt was fun, but we would have done better if it hadn't rained. Karen Smith, Soph., added, Even though it rained, we still had fun. The rain also kept us from making more money. Don't you agree that car washes bring out the best in people? Wet hair, grody jeans, soap-spattered t-shirts and baggy sweatshirts were just a few of the outstanding features these classy car-washers shared. 155 '.V. t e,..u.u ; .....,. g- e.-. .. .-.a.ww -..

Tim Hollkamp, Jr. Tom Hollkamp, Jr. BY: Keith Gilbert Anyone who has been in Mr. McCartin's English class knows that he is prone to occasional bursts of creativity, which means trouble to the average student. These bursts usually occur in late November and sure enough, November 1978 was no exception. After the McCartin brain had thought of a suitable way to torture his 9th grade students, the greenies found themselves walking across the parking lot to Stout Elementary School. His students were in the process of learning how to write descriptive paragraphs. The idea was for each student to interview a Kindergarten or 1st grade ankle biter tan original McCartin termi. Mr. McCartin said, ttThe reasons for this project were to get the student to feel important, learn interview techniques, and to take information and organize it into a single descriptive paragraph. .......A......t. .. 4.....M....A.+.A.- ....A-.M. .

Jill Joyce, Fr. by: Therese Warren Back in the late '60ts, one of the biggest fads was surfing. Everybody surfed, if they were lucky enough to have an ocean handy. Nowaday's, surfing is back, bigger and better than it ever was! The reason behind it is that it's no longer confined to the water. ltts moved inland and is known as sidewalk surfing or skateboarding. People skateboard for a number of reasons, such as for the fun of it, and for thrills. Some even receive bumps, bruises, and broken bones for their daring efforts. Silver Creek freshmen, John Conley and Jody Terrell, are two skateboarders who really get into the skateboarding act. Both can do 360 degree turns, wheelies, and high jumps. They also run obstacle courses. John owns a Pro-Class skateboard made of 2 woods. He noted, If you're going to buy a skateboard, start with a beginner's modei, then build up from there. Jody, who has an $85 GIen-tec which he bought in Florida, stated, You don't have to go to the best. Stick with what you need. He said concerning John's and his beginnings in skateboarding, We started out with a cheap board, then built up to what we've got. Have you ever noticed how some people love to show their talent when a cameraman is around? Well Fr. John Conley is no exception as he flashes his ability of skateboarding. Row 1 Thresa Judd. Fr.

Hundreds of students filed into the Marriott Governoris Hall this year, attired in a great variety of elegant gowns and sophisticated tuxedos. They danced, they discoed, they ate, they socialized, they took pictures, they posed for the pictures, and they generally had a good time. The Junior class, along with sponsors Matt Thomas and Diane Ems, organized this prom. Hours of each day were sacrificed to construct prom decorations, order printed materials, and hire a band and a photographer; in other words, to set up the largest social event of the year. Some comments from a couple of 1979 prom-goers were: Keith Gilbert, Jr., exclaimed, ttThe food and the decorations were both outstanding, but even if they wouldn't have been, I still wouldtve had a great time because I was with Vernon Viper, ! ! iLynette Amosi. Prom Queen, Caroline Fraley, stated, I was so surprised when I was crowned, and I thought it was the best prom live been to so far. Norm Pennington was crowned as Prom King.

By: Donna Stone This year, although we saw the demise of several clubs due to the lack of activity periods, the National Honor Society managed to survive. The purpose of NAHOSO is to honor juniors and seniors having a certain grade point average. A conflict arose between members and nonmembers as to what exactly standards should be for initiation. In years past, juniors were required to have a 3.5 G.P.A. and seniors a 3.0 average. However, NAHOSO members wished to change that standard for all students. After a senior protest and a vote by Mr. Beyl and the faculty, a decision was made that a 3.0 G.P.A. for seniors and a 3.5 average for juniors would be required for initiation into the society this year. The reason for the dispute came about because numerous seniors felt that a change would not be fair to them without adequate notice. However, faculty members did agree that next year all new initiants must have a 3.5 average to become a member of the National Honor Society. An initiation was held on March 8, and 61 new members were inducted. ABOVE: Some are solumn, some are happy, and some are surprised; but they're all there for the same reason. a 3.0 or better G.P.A.

The symptoms make students lose interest in Algebra, tests, and other educational activities, and teachers get uneasy very quickly. Students begin to look forward to getting away from it all for 3 months in order to party, vacation, and have fun. Some students, however, arenit as fortunate, as they prepare for 2 iifun-filled months of summer school. Advanced Biology, and Driveris Ed, are 2 courses offered during the summer session.

When asked what she thought about Driver's training, Carla Kamer, Soph., replied, tilt was a lot of fun, but it messed up my whole summer since I had to get up so early. Why would a student take Advanced Biology when she didn't have to? As Tonya Brown, Soph., commented, I wanted to take the course, but I couldntt fit it into my schedule. So, I didntt have any other choice. So while most students are enjoying their summer fun, there are still those who are expanding their educational horizons by confronting summer school classes.

Girls, Athletic Association makes noon time active with events for point tabulation by: Lana Sells If you have ever been around the gym area between 11:23 and 12:00 noon during the school months, you probably couldn't keep from wondering what all those people were doing in the gym. Who they were is easy enough to answer: They were members of the Girls Athletic Association tG.A.AJ, one of the largest clubs at 8.0. There are no special qualifications to get in G.A.A., but it requires quite a bit of participation in athletic-type activities to remain a member. A point system is used to keep track of who does what for how long. At the end of each semester the points are tabulated and if you don't have enough points you get dropped from the organization. Fun activities such as bowling, softball, swim parties, cook outs, etc. are a major part of G.A.A. life. The purpose of this club, as Sr., Beverly Adams tG.A.A. presidentt, put it, is, ttMainly to have fun. Top Right: A look of anticipation crosses second baseman's.

Congratulations to the Class of 1979! Today s students are the future Leaders of the community. SENIORITY HASITS REWARDS ; Right: Chuck Jennings 4 Right: Patty Mansmann and Barbara Kime On the night of May 16 the class of 1979 received their diplomas. A reward that took them 12 long years to earn. The evening was filled with sadness, excitement, and enthusiasm. The events leading up to Graduation were also very rewarding. Senior Day, The Senior Trip, and the Senior Play were probably the biggest events. All the excitement usually begins at the start of the second semester. And the days went so fast that lllllllll ': . - I ; 1.111 l l one could hardly stop and comprehend what was actually happening. The class of 79 is now history, but the memories will always live on. Great memories such as 2 sectional titles and a baseball team ranked 9th in the state. These are a few of the things that made the class of '79 great. Looking back on your Senior year is sad, but it's also exciting and it holds many rewards. llll i .7 agegcueauezaa: 9h Far Left: Kelly Skaggs, Donna Stone, Thresa Bottorff.

Instead of having a Senior play, Director, Diane Ems, decided to try and have a Senior Review which would have given any senior who couldn't act a chance to show off other talents. Because of a lack of interest in the senior class, the talent show was opened up to the entire student body. Three girls from the Carrie Haas sang songs. Following the talent show came a one act version of ttThe Taming of The Shrew , which lasted 30 minutes. tAbove righti: Katherina gives Petruchio the evil eye as he tries to capture her love. tFar righti: Petruchio dramatically explains to Babtista how his conversation with Katherina went. tRighti: Bianca and Babtista hold frozen poses as Biondello briefly opens the play. h SENIOR CREDITS Jeannie L.

Last of the 170,5 A Graduation Story By Yearbook Editor Joe Faulkner Between the ages of six and seven we were translocated from our backyard swings and sandboxes to the confinement of schoolrooms and desks. We turned in our shovels and pails for pencils and paper. We mitigated our playing and initiated our study habits. In the 12 long years to come, Connie Weldon Roberts tabovel gets a helping hand with her cap from a events brought US closer together fellow student before commencement. Meanwhile, Seth Hutchinson tleftl , in some instances, and forced us 22:23:02izts hlS last tune as an 8.0. band member at the graduation further apart in others. Most Of US grew up together, matured together, and got in and out of trouble together. As we lived, worked, and played with one another, we developed relationships of various kinds. The validity of these relationships will suffer the test of time. On May 16, 1979 the last class of the 70's graduated, and like our childhood we were lifted from this school like kids from a sandbox and sent on our merry way.

Before closing I would like you to know that the pages contained in this book were designed by high school students for high school students. The sole purpose of the publication was to record the history of school year 1978-79. Hopefully, whether you are reading this for the first time in the fall of 1979 or for the thousandth time in the distant future. it will help you recall that final school year of that wonderful decade in which you grew from a child to become a teenager. The book, like the year, is filled with some pleasant surprises and bitter memories. Though changes occured throughout the world, students mainly concerned themselves with the affairs and life within the walls of Silver Creek. This life, whether we accept it or not, included good and bad, understandings and compassion. and apathy and ignorance. Students of sober awareness attended this school aside classmates whose minds were distorted by drugs. During one of those days of attendance, students showed up only to find the teachers out of school; our instructors elected not to teach as a result of contract dispute. This and every school day contained something special and something routine which was all a matter of Standing Out and Blending In . - Joe Faulkner - '79 Yearbook Editor Right: Editor Joe Faulkner 'stood out' during the Halloween get-together at Mr. Prather's farm.
