THE 1987 WILDCAT STAFF Presents The DIAMOND JUBILEE EDITION MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY South High School celebrates its seventy-fifth graduating class in 1987. South High School Springfield, Ohio Vol. LXXXIII Although the present home of South High School was begun in 1909, the Class of 1911 attended what was then known as Springfield High School only during their senior year and graduated from the present building. However, the Class of 1913 was the first class to attend SHS for all three years of their high school career and then to graduate from the present school. Thus, the Class of 1987 is the seventy- fifth class to complete their high school career in the building and therefore, we celebrate this year as the Diamond Jubilee Anniversary of SHS.

Things such as indoor plumbing, computers, curling irons and televisions would be considered luxuries to them. But today these are considered necessities we can not live without. Microwaves, telephones, cars and VCR ' s are other items that seem essential to our everyday lives. We are used to these luxuries and most of us would not have been able to live without them and the lifestyle we have become accustomed to. 1. Eddie Sheets demonstrates his computer knowledge in the Career Resource Center. 2. Today ' s cars are considered a necessity instead of a luxury by senior Brian Kidd. 3. Neil Portis does a fast cooking job in the modem micro- wavp „ -en. 4. Heather Thomas knows she cannot start the day without her curlir. j iron. 5. Jackie Tolliver prepares to put a movie in the VCR. 6. Holly Davis tinds that the typewriter is a necessary luxury for completing written assignment ' - . .

They are the same faces that everyone will display while he is here at this school. They come in all shapes, sizes and colors. There is one face that every student will show and that is the graduation face. The students have on a face to show that they are excited about graduation. This is a face of completion. The students have reached a goal they have been trying to accomplish-FINALLY! 1 . Brad Pratt gives a friendly face to Allen Tucker. 2. Phillip Truss smiles as Sunia Valles gives her Wildcat face. 3.

Well, South High students always have something to do whether it ' s in or out of school. South itself offers many activities that a student can get involved in whether it is playing a sport or just cheering on the athletes who play that sport. Of course, all things must come to an end and the activities at South do not fill all of a student ' s free time. There are many times that a group of friends get together for parties, movies, or just to go cruise. Whether at school or at home. South High students always have activities to participate in. 1 . Athletic Director Duane Baker receives final instructions before donating to the Key Club Blood Drive. 2. Jonathan Bender and Teresa Cooke enjoy a special moment at Homecoming. 3. Mr. Reed speaks at a special assembly for the prevention of drunk driving. 4. Brian Kidd, Brandon Jones, and David White practice for contest. 5.

In recent years, athletic departments have introduced a new line of sport teams including softball, wrestling, and gymnastic teams which are played by both men and women in many sport programs. In today ' s equal opportunity life style ,we have men cheerleaders and women basketball players. Sports are for everyone and everyone should really enjoy the sports they play. ft 1.

Candy Adams. 20 FASHIONS WE WEAR i Coming down the hall is someone wearing jeans and a Coca-Cola shirt. Is this person male or female? Although most fashions that swept South this year could be worn by both males and females, guys drew the line when it came to jewelry or having matching shoes and purses. Hair styles seemed to always change. While the guys were getting their hair cut as short as it could be, girls were letting it grow so they could wear banana combs and bows. Will these styles be in fashion next year? One never knows what new styles are coming along. 1 . Tony Jeffrey, Donna Long, Troy Smith, Jada Young, and Rachel Wyant display a wide variety of ' 87 hair styles. 2. Brian Kidd and Brandon Jones model faded jeans. 3.

Some are colorful; some are drab; some are canvas; some are leather, but carry bags are found on the shoulders of most SHS students. In most bags, along with the usual books and notebooks, you ' ll find trash, year old papers, clothing, candy, and maybe even lunch. Some students say they can ' t live without their bags, but teachers who stumble over them in classroom aisles wish they were nonexistent. Or at least hidden away. 2. 1 . Krista Lindsay, Steve Goodin, Tawnell DeArmond, Dawn Reid, Trish Simmons, and Jeff Lithicum take up the whole hall way with their bags as they leave class. 2. There are many different styles of bags. 3. The aisles of any classroom are generally filled with carry bags. 4. Kris Dellapina can carry just about anything in her bag. 5.

There are now specialized courses that students have to choose from such as Choir, Art, Publications, and Drama. There are also new courses to expand the student ' s knowledge and benefit their futures. Among these are computers, physics, and psychology. Today ' s students ' needs are met by leveling AP, College, General, and Basic so that students can work at their own level of ability. South offers more now to students than ever before. 1 . Kim Miller, Dianne Hinkle. and Tony Lawson work on an experiment in chemistry. 2. Ericka Rucker, Eric Stewart Trent Williams, William Casey, and Phil Truss listen to a History lecture. 3.

No matter how individuals study, the important thing is what is learned while studying. Some may learn more from skiniming notes right before a test while others may need to study for hours. There are many ways to gain knowledge but studying, regardless of how or where, is the key to MAKING THE MOST OF GOALS ONE WISHES TO REACH! fX 1 . Varying degrees of concentration can always be found in study hall. 2. Candy Daniels is totally absorbed in the novel she is reading for English. 3. Kim Miller reads her assignment for the next day. 4. Craig Peterson and Renee Carter share their study habits. 5. Matt McKeever and Michelle Stevison find something other than books to study. 6.

James Casey. 28 SPIRIT WE DISPLAY What do cheerleaders, blue and gold, pep band, the Fight Song and friends have in common? Spirit! Here at South High School we are well-known for our Wildcat Spirit. As our athletes step off the bus and onto the field or court, the opponents know the Wildcat spirit is upon them. Pep rallies, Willie the Wildcat, pins, tee-shirts and the Alma Mater are all displays of the Wildcat spirit. 1. Valerie Rose and Theresa Pankey dress in gold and blue to support the Wildcats on game day. 2. Inspite of an injury, Troy Smith supports the team on to victory from the sidelines. 3.

Tawnell De- Armond. 30 PLACES WE GO When the school bell rings at 3:15, swarms of students fill the streets, waiting for night and par- ties to begin. Everyone has their own thing from cruising on East Main to going to a friend ' s house. Many teenagers go to work or the mall and a lot go to the movies. During the day on Satur- day or Sunday, South students can be found everywhere cruis- ing in the park, going out to eat, watching television, doing homework, visiting out of town or even sleeping in until 2 or 3 o ' clock. 1. Matt Montgomery, Todd Rife, Kevin Bowen and Brian Taylor practice their style for watching the girls go by. 2. Donald Day and Leon Moore enjoy a quick drink at McDonalds. 3.

Most people just assume that everyone goes home or to some type of school activity, but some students are rushing out of South so they will not be late to a job. The most common places that South students work are restaurants, but then there are the lucky ones who get jobs in department stores or offices. Students hold jobs for various reasons: some because it is a necessity; some because they want independence from their parents, and others because they are saving for their future. PPU ' - T,- 1 .

DIVISION 35 THE SCHOOL BELL RINGS by Randy Self All too soon the bell rings; familiar students flock to their new classes while the newcomers run in every direction but the right one. Some of the students have nowhere to run because they have lost their schedules. Usually by the time first period is halfway over, the majority of the students have reached their destination which is first period. However by the time lunch rolls around, students have their new lockers and a stack of books to put in them. Finally it ' s 3: 1 5, and for most, the day has been a disaster. For freshmen it ' s the first day of high school and most are petrified. For the rest of the student body, it ' s not only the first day of school but the first night of homework and for some, the first day of teacher detention. The faculty sighs with relief, even though they know they will have to start all over tomor- row when the first tardy bell rings. 36 CREDIT LIFE INSURANCE 1 South Limestone 328-2200 Congratulations Class of 1987 1.

Even though their record doesn ' t show it, this year ' s volleyball team sacrificed their time and dedicated themselves to improving their own personal skills. c t T 44 r ' ■ ' ' • 9k l 1 i B M| ™ v 1± m 1 ■ B F 9 r 7 l mat  7 H j • 1 ' «i • 9 1 • 11 1 % ' 1 POPCORN PLACED The Traditional Snack REGULAR  2 SALT NO SALT 1717 East Main 324-2676 1.

Led by a quick striking offense and a hard-hitting defensive team, they were able to defeat most of their opponents fairly easily. Although they were defeated by two teams, the players felt they played to the best of their ability, and that was all anyone could ask of them. by Robbin Smith TEAM WORK FRESHMAN FOOTBALL 47 It was a great year despite our record, said Tony Jeffery. The Wildcat football team, under the direction of new head coach Earl Taylor, finished the season with a record of 3-7. Although the season wasn ' t very pro- ductive on the scoreboard, many of the players dug deep inside to main- tain pride on and off the field. Coach Taylor often preached the Do Right Rule to the players (his rule of con- duct to do what ' s right, not what you know is wrong.) The players learned a lot of skills and got good advice from the new head coach to improve themselves both on and off the field. Along with everything the football team learned, the most important goal was team concept and the respect for the new coach and each other. by Tony Jeffrey DEDICATION. PRIDE, AND RESPECT 48 1 .

Even though the Wildcats looked mean and rough on the football field, during school and before the games on Fridays, the players would dress up and look the best they could. Although the players looked good, their record never seemed to peak, but that didn ' t stop the Wildcats from giv- ing their all on the football field. Students in school noticed the overall team effort and friendship on and off the field. So coming from mind, heart, body, and soul, the Wildcat football team is Rough and Tough. by Darryl May ROUGH AND TOUGH 50 1. Darryl May breaks through the run-thru to start the game with a bang. 2.

FOOTBALL 51 THE BAND MARCHES ON by Andrea Stout Marching with knees high, chins or horns raised, and hitting the line on eight are all the thoughts South ' s Band and Drill Team must keep in mind. Headed by Mr. Vrooman and Mr. Hoagland, the band sounded and looked better than ever. Brandon Jones, Drum Major, was a show stop- per with his Pee- Wee Herman dance to Wipe Out. As a part of the Band, the Drill Team, headed by new ad- visor Ms. Barcelona, worked ex- cellently together and showed profes- sionalism. Besides the fancy steps, newer routines, and kicks higher than the Rockettes, the Drill Team was like a big happy family. The Band and Drill Team worked very hard all sum- ' l mer, at all day practices and camp, to show their stuff for festivals, parades, games and tours throughout the years. i 1 I j J 1 i i j ■ i 1 ] s 1 j 1 M ■ j JjP ' j(y j j : . m f 4s ' , ■.r ' $ f v MM ■ 52 ft. 1 SHEEHAN BROS.

That was the question most spirited students at South High asked themselves during Spirit Week. Spirit Week is when students display their Spirit by dress- ing up in outfits that correspond with a particular day. What is in style for the days are decided by the spirit board. The days include: Pee Wee Herman, Halloween, Gangster Day, Clon Day in which students would dress alike and of course our favorite day — Blue and Gold. Blue and Gold Day was 12 held on a Friday because it is a tradi- tion at South to wear blue and gold on Friday throughout the school year. Spirit Week is one of the many ways that students display their spirit at South. 403 Selma Road 324-1589 1 .

SPIRIT WEEK 55 EVERYBODY SHOUT by Donna Long Clap your hands for the Wildcats is the cheer that you are most likely to hear when you enter Evans Stadium or Tiffany Gym on Friday nights. The Wildcats Varsity and Reserve cheerleaders started camp prepara- tion practice in June followed by the Freshman cheerleaders who began preparing in August for all home freshman games. The cheerleaders attended camp where they finished in the winning bracket by placing third in th e all-around competition. For the first time in South High cheerleading, Donna Long was nominated as an Ail-American candidate. Even though she didn ' t win, Donna says, It definitely was an experience. Through the cold and wet football games and the heat of the gym, one ' ' could always hear the spirited chants of the cheerleaders and their suppor- tive fans. 56 THE GENTRY Beauty Salon and Hair Care Center Specializing in All Hair Care Services ' 1022-1024 South Limestone 322-897 1 Salon 767- 1 1 76 Home 1.

CHEERLEADERS AND FANS 57 KNIGHTS OF OLD by Krista Lindsay Probably the greatest memory of all my years at South, was the feeling of Homecoming King Brandon Jones as he and Christi Newsome were crowned. It WAS a night to remember. The special events that led up to the actual crowning made the wait en- joyable. There was mass participation in Spirit Week, the pep rally, and the parade in which the members of the Court were featured along with other activity groups from South. The theme of the 1 986 Homecoming was Knights of Old, and the Commons was decorated beautifully for the dance. The D-J played a selection of old songs to which everyone danced and had a great time. I ' ve never seen so many people sweat like that in formal clothing, stated junior, Steve Goodin concerning the large crowd that danced the night away. Homecoming was an exciting, romantic highlight in the school year. 58 CREDIT LIFE V 1 South Limestone 328-2200 CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF 1987 1 .

HOMECOMING 59 A SCHOOL OF THE PERFORMING ARTS by Rachel Wyant The fall play Fame transformed South High into a school of the Per- forming Arts (P.A. for short) and un- covered the many multi-talented students and faculty members at South. The student body responded to the exciting music and dance oriented play by buying out all the seats. Kim Kruger, a veteran of the stage, said Many new people came out and it was a new experience working with 9 them. The professional choreography of D. Scot Davidge, with the assistance of Gina Burch, polished the dance per- formance and the original music of Paul Cronely electrified the audience. Fame was a huge hit. It got you in- volved and it moved you said Spencer Gibson. Jfi r  - u ■J mJ Li H 8 mjKi k 60 KELSEY HAYES COMPANY SPECO DIVISION 2941 Baker Road 390-3000 1.

To celebrate the love at Valen- tine ' s Day, Senior Boosters sold sing- ing valentines which the junior and senior boosters would deliver to the class and sing on Valentine ' s Day. The students loved them for many reasons; like student Todd Effingham I liked it because it gets you out of class. Em- barrassment, or just to show someone you care, either way people enjoyed purchasing singing valentines. VALENTINE ' S DAY 63 When asked to describe wrestling, Tony Holder said The last of the im- mortals. Wrestling is more than just a 7 sport; it is an art. The art of maneuver- ing your opponent into a position to pin him before he pins you. Wrestling consists of many rules that make it harder than it actually is.

The team was led by Leon Payne, who was the all around gymnast competing in all 6 events and finishing the season with 25 first places. Jason Dougthy, who was in all events but horse, was named most improved gymnast.

Dribbling, passing and shooting are the essentials of the game of basketball and without a doubt the Lady Cats have mastered those skills. The girls led by seniors Sheila Evans and Danielle McWhorter along with junior India Myers compiled a 16-4 record during the regular season and 1 8-5 overall, with two tournament vic- tories, a 58-26 over North and 65-34 over Wayne. As a result of these ac- complishments, they have certainly proven themselves the Ladies of Court. by Spencer Gibson LADIES OF THE COURT GIRLS ' BASKETBALL 71 Both the Freshman and the Reserve teams came out on top this year. The Freshman Blue, coached by Mr. Jim M oyers, and the Freshmen Gold, coached by Mr. Mike Carter, played one another in the W.O.L. champion- ship. The Gold won 41-40. The Reserves coached by Mr. Bruce Rasor won their W.O.L. with a record of 8-1. The Reserves had an overall record of 16-4, the best in three years. Mr. Rasor says, The high point of the year was when we beat two undefeated teams, Xenia and Trotwood, back-to-back. Rasor also goes on to say that Stacy Davis and Tyrone Cole led the team in scoring with 10.2 and 10.0 averages. by Heather Thomas STARS IN THE MAKING 72 1.

The Cats never let their fans down with their speed, ball handling skills and excellent shooting. They kept every game full of life. The Cats ended their regular season with a 1 5-6 record and the Cats never went down in those six games without a fight. Five of those 6 losses were less than 8 points and when the Cats scored, they really scored. They passed the 100 point mark in two of their games. Mr. Wiseman and his players were definitely a team that built excitement. BASKETBALL 75 WELCOME TO WILDCAT COUNTRY by: Heather Williams Welcome to Wildcat Country was what everyone who attended a South basketball game heard before the in- troduction of the players. This year ' s team was definitely worth introducing because it was ful l of stars. When thinking of the stars of speed and stealing the ball, no one can forget the duo of Jerry Arnold and Chris Chilton. There were also stars such as Jeff Strodes, who kept teams remembering Strodes is spoken here. Who could forget our star shooters Brandon Air Jones who never seemed to miss an outside shot and Todd Sky Walker who always seemed to be there to come up with the points when the heat was on. Of course these are just a few of the stars that sent most opponents home from Wildcat Country with a loss. 76 FIELD and ASSOCIATES, INC. 2187 W.

Congratulations And Continued Success To The Class Of 1987 NORTH HIGH SCHOOL 80 THE LEADERS OF THE CLASS by Heather Williams Did you ever wonder what the class officers do? Many people think that class officers do nothing all year, but your officers begin as Freshmen planning for your Senior year. They are the ones who plan those candy sales, car washes, jewelry sales, and then beg, plead, and threaten to get you to take part in the fun. The officers do this to raise money for the class ' s senior year and such things as senior class trip and the senior gift to the school. The officers at the head of the class are not there for the fame and glory, but to work to make your last year at South High the best that it can be. 81 7 Grimes-Kohl VFW POST Congratulations CLASS OF 1987 1.

Varsity softball still proved the unthought of with a season record of 17-10. The Lady Cats went into tour- nament on a roll and for the first time in South ' s history, they played in the tournament finals. Although they did not win the District, they made a strong showing in a rain delayed out- ing. Sheila Evans said, Even though things got a little bumpy towards the end, we were still a team. Dawn Ben- nett also added, Sure we didn ' t win the W.O.L. but there is always next year. We ' re a strong team. fex. SOFTBALL 83 FAST PITCH BACK ON TRACK by Tony Jeffrey Due to good talent and excellent coaching, the Wildcat Baseball team finished the season with a 1 3-5 record. The Cats lost only three league games to finish second with a 6-3 record. The baseball team then went on to win two games in the tournament and ad- vance to the district semi-finals in which they were beaten by Troy 3-2.

By sending members to the State Meet in relays as well as hurdles, the Wildcats topped off a great season. The Boys ' Mile Relay which consisted of Leon Payne, Stacy Davis, Wayne May, and Troy Morris went to the State with Leon be- ing the only senior on the relay.

They ended up the season by being Runners-up in the District meet. Two members of the team went to Ohio State for the State Meet — Chanda Williams, doing the long jump and In- dia Myers in the shot-put. Although the girls only sent two members to the state, next year is definitely looking brighter and faster for Girls ' track. GIRLS ' TRACK 91 GETTING TOGETHER by Krista Lindsay The only place that you ' ll catch all the students of South together is at an assembly. Students gather for many occasions. They crowd themselves in to either the gym or the auditorium for many programs ranging from the Air Force Band to the SADD Chapter assembly, remembering those who have been killed or injured in ac- cidents involving drunk drivers. From pep assemblies to Shakespeare workshops — from special musical performers to guest speakers — students laugh and cry, cheer and yell when they get together for assemblies. 92 RENT-A-CENTER 1063 Bechtle Avenue 322-2010 TVs VCRs Appliances Furniture Stereos I Senator Michael DeWine speaks to the students of South. 2.

After all the competition is completed, the SHS gymnasts are joined by local alumni as they work together to present one of the most exciting shows seen at South.

Who really cares about a NERD 1 who fights imaginary dragons and sings while he duels. Apparently many of the students and fans of the South High School drama Department enjoyed these dreamy exploits as they filled the auditorium four times to watch Don Quixote, played by David Hobbs, and his sidekick Sancho, played by Kenny Carter, fight for their impossible dreams. High ideals and great performances were the watch- words of the cast of Man of La Mancha as they presented this year ' s popular Spring Musical.

CLASS NIGHT 115 GREAT ANTICIPATION by: Krista Lindsay Most have dreamed of it since their high school career began. They looked forward to graduati on with great anticipation. And when it got down to within a few weeks of it is when the rat race began. Students worried about exams, mailing grad- uation announcements and what they were going to do after high school.

June 6, 1987, the seniors ' special day, could not have been more gorgeous. The 75th graduating class ' s Grand Finale was excellent. They had finally finished their journey. The dia- mond class would finally be heading for their futures. Although the ceremo- ny was held at Evans Stadium, foot- ball was the last thing on anyone ' s mind. Graduates hugging and shed- ding tears seemed not quite ready to leave. Then there were others glad it was all over, ready to receive their diplomas and begin their new lives. by Heather William THE GRAND FINALE GRADUATION 119 ANOTHER CHAPTER by Krista Lindsay The Diamond Class of 1987 finished a chapter of their lives they will never forget. Those who met the require- ments to march in the graduation ceremony will never again march the halls of South High.

Under the leadership of Mrs. Joan Butz, the SHS newspaper is one of the highlights of the day when the papers are delivered to homeroom. Moving from the third floor to the first, Orchestra which is one of the many music classes that can be taken at South, is very exciting. The class consists of about twenty-five people who play in- struments that range from the violin to the trumpet. Most of the instruments played are strings and the people who play them combine their skills to perform beautiful and pleasant sounding music. They perform in concerts, at different schools, and they back the choir also. These are just a few of the interesting things that the orchestra has to offer the student body of South. I.

These students put in their time to get a point across that we should not drink and drive. Each year S.A.D.D. has an activity week. To highlight the week they have an all school assembly. During the assembly there is a candle light ceremony in remem- brance of all Clark County pe rsons killed or injured in drunk driving for that year. The S.A.D.D. students are also helped by a group of talent students who call themselves the Prevention Seeker. They work together so that all of us can make it to our future.
