All these things shall one day pop into your cluttered mind and you may realize: the knowledge you gained, through togetherness, education, and parties, has become a fragment of life's hand, and now must be used to your profit.

Sophomores 46 Introducing the 1985 - 86 . . .S0PH0M0RES ! ! ! The Webster s New I w e n t__i e t h Century defines a sophomore as a wise, foolish, boabastic, inexperienced, opinionated, self-assured person. In the tradition of past years, the sophoaores entered a float in the Hoaecoaing Parade. The float did not do well, but in making it they felt SELF -ASSURED. Later in the year the sophomores participated in many additional activities to illustrate the sophomore image”. They were WISE when they sold candy to raise money for future expenses At a party given by the sophomore class on February 15, they were fun loving and FOOLISH. The sophoaores showed how OPINIONATED they are by rising against selfishness to collect cans of food for the needy. The cans were added to the Spanish Club's collection. Every day the sophoaores lived up to their iaage • Although they occasionally showed they were a little INEXPERIENCED in the high school scene, they learned at a fast rate. Early in the year,they began to act like juniors and seniors by using BOMBASTIC language in the halls. The sophoaores have held up the tradition of the second year student , and they are ready to take on the job of being juniors.

They had no idea what to expect when they first reached the school, but once in- side, each of thea found his her niche. This year's freshman class was very involved both in sports and acadeaics. It seems that alaost everyone found a sport to excel in. The boys' basketball and football teaas showed great potential, winning the majority of their gaaes. The cross-country and track teaas this year included «any freshaen, which should prove to be very profitable for next year's teaas. Many of the girls found a hoae with Southwest's newest sport, soccer. The Class of '89 proved itself to have brains as well as brawn. As you probably noticed, they had one of the longest lists of students on the Honor Roll. As all around people and students, our freshaan class is a good addition to the tribe here at Southwest.

Although this year's football tean finished below .500, the season did have many positive aspects. Led by senior co-captains Marvin Fight, Darrin Fulcher, Eli Strother, and Raymond Stephenson, the Indians recovered from a slow start to win four of their final six contests. At the start of this year, Southwest was hailed as the team to beat in the Interscholastic League. Four straight losses to begin the year created a certain amount of speculation about the talent this team had. However, the facts show the bad luck this club so often encountered. An ankle injury to Fight limited his playing time and overall effectiveness. The shockingly heavy amount of rainfall Kansas City had in September and October caused extremely poor field conditions and led to surprising losses for the Indians. Another problem Coach Hannaman was faced with was the large nimtoers of underclassmen that were rushed into varsity action. Nevertheless, the team shook off close losses to Truaan (12-20), Lincoln (0- 6), and East (6-8) to make the previously mentioned late season rush. The final record was 4-6. Despite failing to make the playoffs, Southwest did not simply facto away at season's end. Fight, Fulcher, and juiior Michael Jones all received some post-season attention. Most frequentlyk heard at school in the weeks following the end of football was praise of individual talents and the excellent po- tential for the squad next year. Hannaman noted that the fine play of junior All-Stars Jones and Curtisk Roberts provides a solid nucleus for 1986. Coach Hannaman summed it up best for the 1985 football team when he states, This year's team showed a lot of character in overcoming obstacles of weather, youth, and injuries. The future for Southwest football looks bright. Senior Darrin Fulcher, a standout defensive star for two years, shook his head and muttered, All we needed was a little luck. 80 81 FOOTBALL Front Rows Kevin Jones, David Poke, Mark Wilson, Donald Webster, Tarron Phillips, Melvin Sasser, Kermit Strickland, Saun Reans.

Freshmen Just like Vince Lombardi with the Green Bay Packers, Coach Richard Brouilette took a group of boys and turned them into men by introducing a football to their lives. Looking back on the past freshmen football season, one sees a group of athletes who overcame hurdles of academics, discipline, and inexperience to achieve a 4-2-2 record along with an un- defeated league mark. It felt good not to be beaten by an I.L. team,” stated an enthusiastic Coach Brouilette. Brouilette cited the outstanding play of quarter- back Shawn Robinson and defensive specialists Kermit Stricklin and Melvin Sasser as keys to the squad's success. The freshmen football team provided a great deal of potential for Southwest football. Head football coach Keith Hanna- man will have a wonderful summer. The future for Southwest footbsll looks promising because of the tremendous progress made by the 1985 J.V. football team. Coach D8ve Owen led the squad to a 2-2-1 record against several formidable opponents. Despite opening the season with two straight losses to non-confer- ence rivals Trunan and O'Hara, the JV'ers quickly bounced back to defeat Pembroke Hill and South- east, and battle to a 6-6 deadlock with Central. A 2-1 league record placed Southwest second in the Interscholastic League. Owens credited the team's success to a strong defense and particularly noted the play of underclassmen Chris McDonald, Arthur Armstrong, and Eric Murry. However a total team improvement from day one led Co8ch Owens to comment, All the players contributed to our suc- cessful season. In closing Coach Owens projected a great deal of optimism by stat- ing, We're counting on these kids to bring Southwest confidence for the future. 82 . i Do not put your faith in what statistics say until you have carefully considered what they do not say. -William W. Watt 83 At school, they were just 8 ordinary students struggling to make the grades. But, when put on the volleyball court, they trans- formed into a fantastic 6, never struggling to make the points. We look just like ordinary people; the opposition never suspects they are to fall victims to a mental manslaughter. Crouched close to the ground like a lion waiting for his prey, the Southwest team anxiously waits for the serve and then, the attack will begin. The victims will not be spared. The taste of victory lingers within the gym. The opposition serves. The whirling round mass soars over the net increasing anticipation for the fantastic 8. The antici- pation bounces off the walls and shakes the cold, hard floor. It runs wildly throgh the gym and flies freely through the viewers' minds. It gives the Southwest time a pat-on-the-back and, with a wicked smile upon it face, it stops, like death, and gives the offense a cold stare in the eye. Intensity grows as the round object draws near. At this mo- ment, the 6 combine into 1 to create The Team . With this power, intensity is unleashed, hurdles aimlessly from every player'8 mind. Now, the game begins. The Southwest team will play. The opposition will be shown no mercy! Melinda McDonald shatters the opposition's glimmer of reality. A reality which simply, but crudely, states that Southwest will perish in the wreckage. Melinda takes control of the first hit by sending it over to the setter, Mary Dunham, from there,Mary takes complete charge. She is the surgeon, the ball is her patient. It will do and perform as she wants it to. With the finest precision, Mary places the ball in perfect position. Spiker Angie Bell, prepares for the slaughter. She knows the ten- foot line never looked jucier. The feast has begun. We are the Top Row: Casey Simmons, Melinda McDonald, Angie Bell Middle Row: Traci Smalls, Candra Ruffin, Carolyn Gettino Bottom Row: Catherine Lewis and Mary Dunham King Henry VIII of volleyball, feasting upon the opponent. Casey Simmons serves the ball to the rival. Like a hot potato burning a child's hand, the ball is quickly passed, favoring Southwest, the ball is served. It floats with ease, its destination unknown. Like metal attracted to a magnet, Mary Dunham dives to the floor. She knows it is the only way to keep the ball alive. Using the utmost skill and accuracy, she guides the ball to the setter, Catherine Lewis. Confidence guides her; it couldn't be a more beautiful set. Poised, Carolyn Gettino awaits for her glory. The setter loads the cannon with the ball. All it takes is gun powder, Carolyn Gettino brand. The fuse is lit, the spark meets the gun powder. The cannon emits a powerful force which blows the senses. The attack is over. The opposition is buried in the ruins. Once again, the fantastic 8 comes out alive and victorious. The next opponent awaits and cowers, for they know there's nothing to fear but fear itself unless that fear is the Southwest volleyball team. 84 85 JU Volleyball Front Rows Traci Snails, LaShawn Caples.

Glh in the StfltC The 1985 Southwest Cross Country Indians distinguished themselves and represented the school more than well. Tea� members: Darrell Green, Willie Joyce, David Coveney, Steve Connaghan, Mike Hopkins, Mike Connaghan, and Adic Horton represented Southwest at 8 cross country meets prior to the district competition. The Indians placed first in the Interscholastic League this year, and second in the district meet and were rated the number two team in the metro area. The second place district finish qualified them for 8 berth at the state meet in Jefferson City where they finished sixth. In addition to this finish, Green won an individual state medal. In addition to Green and the Connaghan brothers, Steve and Mike, Coach Samuels can look forward to the services of Aaron Grist, John Patterson, and Sam Paul on the 1986 cross country team. All in all, as Samuels puts it, Provided all the members return, we will again have an outstanding team. 88 89 Top Row: Carl Lewis, Doug Overbay, Charles Funk.

Each year many students come to school a month before the rest of us so that they can start preparing for the cross-country season. The junior varsity cross- country team consists mainly of sophmores. These runners have all had a years experience and know what to expect. This showed up well this year when the team started having their meets. On September 7, the team had their first meet, the Truman Invita- tional. By the time the 3rd meet came around, the Blue Valley Fellowship Run, the junior varsi- ty team came in first place. It did not end there. The team went on to win almost all of the rest of their meets. Everyone expects to have 8 very good year next when the junior varsity team becomes our 1986-87 varsity cross-country team.

Basketball The 1985-86 Southwest boy's bas- ketball season was prematurely written off as a rebuilding year . Last year's 22-7 squad consisted of eight seniors and only three varsity juniors. How- ever, led by senior Marvin Fight and junior Mike Jones, the Indians surprised many with a 15-11mark. Fight was simply excellent, aver- aging 27 points a game and demand- ing attention with his agressive play both offensively and defens- ively. Working with seniors Maur- ice Byrd and Eli Strother, Jones, and sophmore Steve Ford,Fight could, to paraphade the Kansas City Star, make things happen on the court. The bench also contri- buted to the team'8 success. Head coach William Madison had to be impressed with the clutch play of senior David Conchola,sophmores Ryan Williams and Curtis Roberts, and the best sixth man in high school basketball, Tim Gibson. A highlight of the season was the second place finish in the Inter- scholastic League Tournament. Southwest lost by just two points to Paseo in the finals. Paseo later went on to the state finals. The most excitement of the year was generated by the rematch between Southwest and the Rock- hurst Hawklets in the district final. Despite a fast start and a halftime lead, the Indians slowly cooapsed in the second half and were eventually soundly defeated. Pride, however, could be felt throughout the gym by all the Southwest fans after the final game they celebrated a 'highly satisfactory basketball season. Fight continued his glory after the season. Not only did he gain a place on the Star's honorable mention All-Metro team but Fight also proved the respect he had gained on the court by being awarded the honor of I.L. Player of the year. With the return of Jones, Ford, Roberts, and Wil- liams, the years ahead look very bright for Southwest basketball. JU Front Row:Johnny Davis, Eric Murray, Matt Fulson, Percey Robinson, Rex Moody.

With the help of Coach Reginald Walker and assistant Miss Cook, the girls were able to display what they do best - play basketball. With the strength of four re- turning seniors: Renae Taylor, who was nominated for first team, League; Lisa Smith, Cathy Lewis, and Diana Grover, named honorable mention League, the team was able to play and win against other teams in the league. Finishing fourth in the IL Christmas tourna- ment and ending the season with a 7-10 record, the girls showed im- provement from last year. But, the improvement couldn't have been possible without the contribution of two youths: freshman LaShaun Bozeman and Lisa Tate. With these honored players and the remaining team members, the girls' basket- ball team finished out the season successfully. 96 97 1986 TRACK 1986 The 1986 Southwest track program is on the way to continuing the winning tradition that the Indians have grown accustomed to. Head coach Richard Samuels has expressed a great deal of optimism for his boys' varsity squad. He feels that they have the potential to win every league meet this year. He is quick to spotlight the skills of senior sprinter Marvin Fight. Fight has appeared on the Star's Honor roll and is nearing school records in the 100, 200, and 400. Samuels also praises his fine group of distance men. Senior Mike Hopkins continues his domination of the half-mile and seniors David Coveney and William Joyce work with sophomore Darrell Green to tule the mile and two-mile events. Junior Mike Jones has done well in junp- ing events and junior William Harris should also be noted for his superior skill on the hurd- les. As the May 8 I.L. meet drew closer the varisty boys became more psyched for victory. The varsity girls, on the other hand, are on the verge of a major breakthough. The hurd- ling duo of Alicia Bowie and Lisa Smith provide the quality leadership that the younger run- ners attempt to emulate. The league title may not come this year, but SW girls are building for the future. Coach Samuels also speaks highly of the junior varsity and freshmen fleet-foots. A first place finish at the Southwest Relays demonstrates the awesome potential these young athletes bring to the program. Hard work in these months of spring has given Southwest track the success they strive for. The runners have avoided many obvious distractions and activities in order to establish pride for the Indians. Coach Samuels stated that the Sw boys and girls track teams were right where he wanted them. Front Row: Paul Williams, Marcel Alvarado, Herbert Sims, Christopher Brown, David Conehoia.

People in other organiza- tions are afraid of losing, but the golf tea® lacks this fear. FWhy should they fear the inevita- ble? They realize they have little chance to overcome all the preps out there who take golf seriously. Still they practice and compete for no other reason than to have fun. Seniors Ramulus Gatapia, Bill Hinecker, and Bill Beary, junior Tc Mercer and sophomores Luke Dowd, Brendan Danaher, Darryn Snell, Eric Henuber, Marc Boatman, and Ed Hinecker join together on the golf courses of Kansas City to show off the Indians' talent and create a memorable impression in the minds of the preps. This year's team has the same core membership as last year's; only Bill Beary and Luke Dowd are new to the group. It is evident fro® their classes that Southwest will be able to maintain its reputation for the next few years (assuming no one good gets kicked out of the private schools). In fact, our team's present fame may increase next year with the loss of the best player, Bill Hinecker. In spite of the team's three recent losses to O'Hara, Pembroke Hill, and Miege, they already have the lnter8cholastic League cham- pionship clinched.

Spring 1986 Brought a new exciting Sport to Southwest! Girls Soccer! (... And just when you thought it was safe to walk across the field!) for years, Southwest has debated whether to begin a girls soccer team. This year marked the exciting victory of those who worked to produce it. It is the only team in the Kansas City Public School Sys- tem. Thus, most of their games were played against private schools most of whom have had soccer teams for years. The girls held their heads high and pulled out a fun, success- ful season. Just like for Southwest football and other sports, the fans play a major role in the sport. There was incredible fan support in both number and spirit. The fans were never deprived of an action packed game. In every aspect the team was a total success.The girls involved put their best effort forth as the fans cheered. The season set a foundation for the years to come. And, it looks like those years may be as exciting as this year was. 103 Scores VARSITY FOOTBALL Our score Their score T r u ■ a n 1 2 20 0 'Hara 7 1 9 Lincoln 1 4 1 6 Central 0 6 East 6 8 P a s e o 8 6 Northeast 36 0 Southeast 1 8 2 1 Van Horn 1 7 1 4 Westport 8 0 VARSITY GIRLS BASKETBALL Our score Their score Hogan 35 45 St. Teresa ' s 32 66 Shawnee Mission East 21 66 Turner 41 40 Blue Valley 29 50 East 41 40 Southeast 32 34 Lincoln Acadesy 39 44 Van Horn 54 58 Shawnee Mission East 27 63 T urner 39 59 VARSITY VOLLEYBALL Suaner 38 49 Van Horn Lost (4-15), (7-15) Central 32 44 E as t Lost (15-3), (10-15), (8-15) Westport 41 33 Westport Won (15-3), (15-9) Paseo 53 44 Central Won (15-11) , (15-7) Northeast 33 37 Lincoln Won (15-5), (15-9) St. Joseph Central 36 53 Paseo Won (18-16) , (15-5) East 29 35 Southeast Won (15-12) , (15-8) Southeast 39 37 Northeast Won (15-8), (15-3) Lincoln 34 74 Notre Oaae De Sion Won (15-8), (15-12) y _ _ r Hogan Lost (4-15), (7-15) Won St. Pius Lost (4-15), (15-2) Lost 14 Paseo Won (15-2), (15-0) 3rd place in Interscholastic League Overall 8-4 VARSITY BOY'S BASKETBALL Our score Their score Our score Their i Springfield Glendale 44 66 Central 62 58 Blue Springs 46 74 Van Horn 81 67 Rockhurst 53 72 Springfield Parkview 52 47 Shawnee Mission East 55 61 Paseo 55 69 Turner Kansas 69 54 Columbia Hickman 75 74 Blue Valley 60 62 Hogan 88 79 Southeast 65 ' 52 Northeast 65 68 Westport 53 47 St. Joe Central 65 52 Paseo 57 59 East 72 61 Lee's Sussit 74 87 Southeast 82 53 Snith Cotton 76 69 L incoln 73 67 Oak Park 75 73 Westport 56 54 104 105 SENIOR SKI TRIP Bottom Row: Yunna Cole, Sara Stevens, Jason Hannaman.

The year got off to a shaky start when Mrs. Settle, the Stuco sponsor, changed jobs and left Southwest. Even worse, the P.A. system broke down. Recovering from these dire blows, the Council, now with the help of the new sponsor, Mrs. Winston, held an election of represen- tatives from fourth-hour home rooms , and meetings began. The activities of this year's Council included three dances: first a Welcome Back dance and then two other dances, including a highly successful Snowball in December. Other fund raising activities included 8 bake sale and a candygram sale, both fun, highly profitable student services. Said Stuco Treasurer Steven Thomas, I think that Student Council's candygram sale was one of the most successful things we've done all year. The Council also worked thi6 year on improving communications within the school and between the school and the community. Four members of Stuco: Kim Trusty, Steven Thomas, George Ramsey, and Peter Thomas attended the NCCJ'b Metropolitan Leadership Day, a series of workshops dealing with communication and other leadership skills. Members of the Executive Board sat in on meetings of the Southwest Booster's club, the school's parent organization, to improve student - community communication. The Council also helped the Booster'8 to produce a school directory, the first in three yeaers. Says Stuco President, Peter Thomas, I think we had an OK year. I wish Mrs. Settle hadn't left and that we'd worked more on communication. However, I appreciate the help that Mrs. Winston has given us this year. I think that's still the school's main problem- lack of communication, and also the 'I don't care' attitude. Overall, this year has been successful. 111 First Row:Stanley Mosely, Tracy Butler, Andrea Johnson, Andrea Reeves, Laura Wilson, Brian Johnson, Crystal Walker, Michelle Walker, Glynis McGautha.

The Drama Department had its successes also in various tournaments where they frequently advanced to the finals. Sophomore actress Laura Wilson probably suamed up the feelings of the acftors and actresses who competed best when she said, Making a judge cry sure was exciting.

Does 2 4-2 = checkmate9 It does at Southwest where the Hath and Chess club is sponsored by Hrs. Katz. Although the chess players did not go to a tournament this year, they experienced the heat of battle by meeting after school in Room 503 on Wednesdays. They played and ex- changed meaningful words with each other over chessboards. A common verbal assault heard often, joking or otherwise, was the phrase, You're cheating! Some players did not know how to play chess and learned from the more experienced players. The inexperienced often asked, You can't do that ... or can you? The mathematicians met at the same time as the chess players. Every Wednesday they came in and prepared for math contests. In March, the math students went to a contest at Blue Springs High School. A first place Geometry award did not have a trophy case to lie in, so it was carried home by Steven Thomas. In April, our math team went to a state wide contest at Excelsior Springs High School and sallied out the front door with seven awards. Among the seven awards were: fifth place for Senior Teams, third place in Hathaletics, and first place in Graphing (won by Steven Thomas). The Hath and Chess Club was an enthusiastic group of students. It worked hard to sell candy to raise money for awards and a party. Club member Denise Rector even finds it, A great way to touch up on my counting. m CONCERT CHOIR First Row: Kimberly Odum, Nicohle Thomas, Michelle Bruscato, Mia Kirkpatrick, Diedre Weston, Tiffany Jackson, Charletta Armstrong, Monet Shackleford.

This year the Southwest chorus walked in the door in September to find . . . no Mr. Foster in sight. He was out of to m because of a family illness and for several weeks the choir was spinning its wheels. But the choir quickly recovered and, after a rocky start, they proved their talents well. The Concert Choir was shining at the Christmas program. Not only was the quality of sound emitting from their mouths excellent, but the sudience was electrified when the sounds of music began in the front hall of Southwest High School and the choir began their processional down the aisle carrying lighted candles. Between performances, the choir prepares songs for future performances and sharpens their singing skills. Belles and Beaux member Casey Simmons catches the essense of the group when she says, It's a class where you're not a sponge soaking up information, but instead you are working as a group to create something; also you must perform with others so you have a responsibility to a group. Our SINGING INDIANS are an excellent choral group and are a proud part of the overall Southwest program. 115 e 116 First Row:Mia Kirkpatrick, Michelle Bruscato, Valerie Root, Casey Simmons, Rona Patterson.

The members of Stage Band were selected on a competitive basis for the privilege of getting up on time to attend a 7 A.M. (yes, 7 A.M.) class daily. 'The repertoire of this elite early bird group encompasses jazz, rock, and big band tunes. This year’s performan- ces included trips to such prestigious events as the President’s Clii) Banquet which was an appreciation luncheon for Henry Block of H R Block, and various performances for area hospitals and banquets. They also provided the music for many Southwest assemblies and participated in holiday concerts. _____________________________ 117 CONCERT First Row: Tracy Ashby, Elaine Roesbury, Stephanie Stewart, Tammy Johnson, Christine Burdett, Julie Wertman, Gina Juarez, Yolanda Rogers, Roberta Barrett.

What do you do when Mother Nature throws mud in your face, or rather rain on your parade? If your band director is Mr. Alter, you stage a surprise aarch down the aisles of the Fall Concert, of course. This fall numerous parades and football gaaes were cancelled due to weather (one hardy trumpet player just wouldn't give up, however; Thoaas Mercer marched the Hoaecoaing Parade alone.) Other bright spots last fall included the ever- popular waste basket and trash bag sales. Saell victories always ease the pain of tribulation - three band members won chairs in the All-District Band: Joseph Cariani, Steven Thoaas, and Peter Thoaas. Peter Thoaas went on to win the second alternate Euphonim chair gf the State Band. This year'8 concert season began with two winter concerts, one for alumni and one in memory of the late Richard Kyle. Mr. Kyle, Binghaa's instrumental music instructor for aany years, passed away last summer after suffering a heart attack. Most of the band members were taught by Mr. Kyle at Bingham; we mourn his loss and cherish his memory. The spring concert season climaxed with the District Solo and State Band Cou eti- tions at Williaa Jewell College in April. The band played up to its ability, earning a II rating. The solo and ensemble competitors from the band played up to their capacities, earning a wealth of I s and several II's. A patriotic concert for the Scottish Rite, and the Southwest Arts Festival Concert finished off the yesr with a bang. The seniors have left for college, next year's frosh are scared to death; as always, tradition continues - a tradition including musical Excel- lence and Pride.

Alter’s diligent instruction, our orchestra achieved the best possible performance rating awarded a high school. Things ran unusually smooth at the contest this year. There were no flat tires, mud-slides, or late arrivals as we have come to expect. It did rain a little, but it has done that for the last twenty years. In short, we went, we played, and we got a I. Our orchestra had the honor of playing in a memorial concert in memory of the late Richard Kyle. Hr. Kyle was the music director at Bingham Jr. High School. Anyone who had a chance to serve under him knows what a dedicated musician and teacher he was. His death is truly a loss to the community. Each year, Hr. Alter starts with a new group of students, some experienced and some still wet behind the ears and he turns them into a functioning group of musicians. Some of the people in his class enroll there because they consider it a blow off class. These people either end up learning or they get kicked out. George Alter has a way of putting talent to work. It is no wonder that he received the Teacher of the Year award. All in all, the orchestra learned a lot and had a very productive year. Orchestra member, Phil Brown talks about the finer points of bass playing during lunch. 121 1VARSITV BAND Front Row: Laura Wilson, Veronica Jenkins, Vicki Grewell, Dana Gibbs, Jamie Hopkins, Erika Grant, Anita Scott, Delshone Bradley, Shelli Allen, Brandi Malone, Karin Willitmts.

This 3b member freshman and sophomore band meets every day during second hour band class to dedicate their individual talents to the group effort. While Varsity Band is often referred to as the Rinky-Dink Band , that statement ia far from accurate. Although it is true that they are second in line behind the Southwest Concert Band, by no means should they be overlooked. Many of the members of Varsity Band participated in district contest and state contest in small assemblies and as soloists. The varsity bandsmen also participated in many school activities. These students are scholars and athletes who are continuing a tradition that has made Southwest the proud, honored HOME OF THE INDIANS.

Southwest had the good fortune to host five foreign exchange students this year With the January arrival of Miss Tip, the Thai exchange teacher, and the addition ot Austrian student, Judith Gaisch, the original trio of Peruvian Alicia Nomberto, Belgian Enzo Peluso, and New Zealander Rachel Barwell was considerably swelled. Alicia, who lived with the Trusty family, was active in Spanish Club, girls' soc- cer, Concert Band, and pep club. She participated actively in daily life at Southwest, showing great vitality and school spirit. Enzo played noseguard for the varsity football team and was also involved in Con- cert Band. Having studied extensively in the math field in Belgium, he also aided the math club in their activities. His keen interest in sailing and skiing kept his host family, the Wards, and him busy during their spare time. The Skidmore family hosted Rachel, who found niches in volleyball, Concert Band and publications, where she made a number of warm friendships. She also added a little of her own New Zealand flavor to the Variety Show production in April. Despite arriving late in the year, Judith quickly became involved at Southwest, playing for i e girls' soccer team, and participating in the Variety Show. With introduc- tions from the Irio , she soon found Southwest to be a warm and friendly school. For an exhange teacher, there were many challenges at Southwest. But with the help and friendship of many teachers, including Mrs. Fessel and Mrs. Chiarello, and encourage- ment from her fellow AFSers at Southwest, Miss Tip began to enjoy her new experiences. A definite surprise for many students, the cold winter weather was quite a shock for Miss Tip, who arrived from Thailand in December. As Southwest ' s 1986 school year ended, the five took away with them lasting memo- ries, and they left behind in the hearts of Southwest High School students a different impression of AFS students. 123 ENTERTniNITIENT 86 By any Measuring stick, '85-'86 was a slow year for entertaiment. On the silver screen, the lack of a huge blockbuster like 'Beverly Hills Cop' or 'Raiders of the tost Ark' hurt the aovie industry. The biggest aoney earners were 'First Blood, Part Twos Rambo' and 'Back to the Future'. 'RaMbo' and its gung-ho clones portrayed Aaericans as gun-toting Muscleien hunting down terrorists, or Vietnaaese, or what- ever got in their way. 'Back to the Future' was one of a handful of intelligent coeedies primarily aimed at a youth Market. The movie industry was hurt by the proliferation of VCRs as many former movie- goers opted to stay home and watch their favorite flicks rather than go shell out money at a theater. The music industry was also in trouble. Whereas past years had seen biggies like Michael Jackson's 'Thriller and Bruce Springsteen's Born in the U.S.A.', '83-'B6 lacked a real monster hit to capture the national attention. Big trends included movie soundtracks ('Against All Odds', 'White Nights', 'Pretty in Pink'.) Even a TV show rated a soundtrack. Late '86 releases that could be BIG hits include Van Halen's '5150', the Rolling Stones' 'Dirty Work' and Prince's 'Parades Music From Under a Cherry Moon'. Hot TV shows were 'The Cosby Show', 'Family Ties', 'Moonlighting', •Cheers', and ESPN Sunday night NHL games. Not hot TV shows were 'Magnum P.I.', 'The Love Boat', 'Hill Street Blues’, and 'Saturday Night Live'.

Jason and the Scorchers: •Lost and Found' UfE HRE THE CHHIIPIOMS How 'bout then Royals? Chanps of the world, huh? Everybody counted the Royals out. Acordinq to the experts the Royals shouldn't have won the Anerican League West. California should have squared off with Toronto in the American League Championship Series. And when the Royals did manage to squeak into the playoffs, the experts said Toronto would sweep it. With the Royals down three games to one, the experts told the Royals to pack their bags. After shutting out Toronto 2-0 in Gane Five, they packed their bags for Toronto and came back home with the American League championship, winning three straight high-pressure nail-biters in the process. Of course, the experts said the Royals didn't have a chance against the National League champs, the St. Louis Cardinals. Cardin- als in four, predicted Reds manager Pete Rose. Wrong, said the Royals. With the Royals down three games to one yet again, Hal McRae said, The pressure is on them (St. Louis) now. How prophetic those words were. The Royals won Game Five amd brought the series home to K.C. In a disputed call at first, the Royals came back in the ninth inning of Game Six to pull ahead 2-1. The Cards, shocked by tlfte Royals comeback didn't even put up a fight in Game Seven. The Royals shelled Cards pitchers for six runs in the fifth inning on their way to a 110 wipe- out. Among the casualties were Cards manager Whitey Herzog and pitch- er Joaquin Andujar, both thrown out of the game, and pitcher John Tudor, who maimed his hand in a fight with a fan (an electric one, that is.) The Royals won it all. The experts were wrong. TERRORISm Perhaps the images that stick with us most from '85-'86 are those of terrorism: the hijacking of TWA Flight 847, the 39 hostages and their 17 days of captivity, and the killing of U.S. Sailor Robert Stethem; the hijacking of the cruise ship Achille Lauro and the brutal murder of a wheelchair-bound American passenger, Leon Klinghoffer; the massacres at Rome and Vienna airports which left 19 dead and 121 wounded; the assassination of Swedish Prime Minister 01 of Palme; the bombing of a West Berlin discotheque which left an American soldier dead in the rubble. American were left with a feeling of helplessness. Any response would only encourage future terrorism, it was reasoned. Our hands were tied behind our backs. But after the Reagan Administration cracked the Libyan diplomatic code and obtained proof that the Libyan government was behind the Berlin bombing, the U.S. struck back. In the early morning of April 21, Navy and Air Force jets swooped down on the Libyan capital of Tripoli and the port city of Benghazi. The targets were military bases and terrorist training camps. The strike against Libya was supported among our allies only by Great Britain, but many of the other allies decided it was time to put economic sanctions on Libya for its blatant support of terrorist activities. Jayhaiuks to Final Four Go, KUH Though they didn’t win it all, the aighty ’Hawks of Kansas done us proud this year with their hoop heroics. Winning the Big Eight tourney, finishing the regular season with a 30-3 record and a 2 ranking, advancing past tough opponents on their way to the Final Four. The Jayhawks did 'ea all. The Jayhawks featured such aighty roundball warriors as 6'11 sophoaore forward Danny Manning(second teaa A11-Aaerican) , 6’5 for- ward Ron Special K Kellogg, 7’1” center Greg Dreiling, and 6’6 guard Calvin Thoapson. Other stars included Cedric Hunter, Archie Marshall, Mark Turgeon, Chris Piper, and, of course, the Tia Gibson of college ball, Scooter Barry. Though the 'Hawks lost a 71-67 heartbreaker to the tough Duke squad, we are still proud of the awcsoae, aaazing Kansas Jayhawks. Cruisin' on the Plaza becaae a source of controversy in Kansas City during this school year. 128 Changes in South Africa A8 the white government seeks to reform apartheid, blacks riot in an attempt to bring the whole system down. Such is the current situa- tion in South Africa. Prime Minister Pieter Botha, under pressure from conservative members of his own National Party to not make modifications in the systematic separation of races called spartheid, is moving slowly to do away with its petty aspects, such as the pass laws which control the movement of blacks. But it's not enough for the black leaders. They demand the destruction of spartheid and the right to vote for b 1 acks• In the U.S., college campuses are rife with protest over this issue. Students build shanty towns to demonstrate the inhumanity of aprtheid and demand their colleges divest their holdings in companies th8t do business in South Africa. Schaol Tau Lewg Fails... Again for the seventh time in the last 16 years, voters in the Kansas City School District turned down a proposed school property tax levy hike. The February A tally was 11,451 in favor of the increase, and 22,835 in opposition. The proposed increase would have added an estimated $20.7 million to the district's $111.4 million budget. Levy opponents campaigned on a shoestring budget and were vastly out-organized by levy supporters, but nevertheless pulled off a stun- ning defeat. They cited the public's frustration with school district mediocrity and an already overwhelming tax burden as factors in the increase's 2-to-1 defeat. The opposition circulated figures, which later turned out to be inaccurate, that showed the Kansas City School District spending more per student than any other area school dis- trict. Levy supporters said that their opponents' misinformation cam- paign, confusion over reports that proceeds from the Missouri Lottery would be spent on education, and a very light voter turnout contri- buted to the defeat. As of Sachem press-time, the school board had 129 not decided on a further course of action. Bye Bye Bictators The parallels are startling: two economically ravaged countries, run by corrupt right-wing dictators, rise up against their rulers, toss them out, and become... democracies? In the early morning of February 9, Jean-Claude Baby Doc Duva- 1ier, President-forLife of Haiti, drove to the Port-au-Prince airport in a BMW and was whisked away on an American jet to France. He was brought down by a general strike and, ironically, an earlier American report that Duvalier had fled the country. A mi 1itary civilian gov- ernment was formed to replace him. Elections are imminent for a democratic government. Less than a month later, Philippine strongman Ferdinand Marcos was whisked away on an American jet. Destination: Hawaii. Marcos was brought down by People’s Power the supporters of Coraron Aquino, main opposition leader who claimed she was cheated out of the presi- dency by massive vote fraud. After American pressure and the defec- tion of much of the military to Aquino's side, Marcos agreed to step down HARVARD • radcliffe The Yuppies Ire Coming Who are they? Where did they cone froc? They are the yuppies- young urban professional a, those BMW-driving, American Express-wield- ing, t enn i s - p 1 ay i ng baby booiers that seeied to coie froc out of nowhere and leap into the spotlight. The yuppies made their first big grab for attention during the presidential campaign of '84. The yuppies were solidly behind Demo- cratic contender Gary Hart, but when he failed to get the nomination, they switched their allegiance to President Reagan. What are the characteristics of a yuppie? Certainly a German (or Swedish) automobile. A yuppie wears a Rolex watch, a navy blue jack- et, grey flannel, a white button-down oxford, and a Brooks Brothers silk tie. A yuppie carries a briefcase. A yuppie is always hurrying to either a power lunch, a racquetball date at the athletic club, or 8 wine-and-cheese-tsating fete. In Kansas City, yuppies can be found on the Plaza, Westport (bohe- mian yuppies), and yes, the Brookside Shopping District. Go into Milgram's on a busy day and shout, The Wall Street Journal says Buy! Buy! Buy!1 and step aside as the yuppie crew scrambles for the nearest phone to call their brokers. Space Shuttle Disaster On January 28, we senior ski trippers had just reboarded the Mr. Gonzalez Express after picking up our complimentary Taos T-shirts when Coach Hannaman told us the space shuttle hsd blown up. We laughed, but then we found out he was serious. I will never forget standing inside the Taos Army and Navy surplus store, watching this cheap black-and-white Tv, watching as the space shuttle Columbia lifted up into the sky, then caught flame, and then burst into a fireball. We watched the scene, speechless, again and again. By now, the subject has been virtually exhausted. Apparently, the O-rings on the right booster rocket failed and all the fuel exploded. One of the crew members was Christa McAuliffe, the first non-military or science specialist to ride aboard the shuttle. She was a high school social studies teacher in Concord, N.H. Misty Kennedy Hoaecoaing Queen 132 Angie Beil Roshawn Clay 133 Debbie Concbola Katy Nastali You got asked?!!! YES! By who? HIM!!! What did you say? Well, I said YES! Oh, ay gosh! Well, we've gotta go shopping for you. We'll find a really cute dress; it's just got to be yellow; yellow is definitely your color. Let's see, you'll need shoes to match, and ribbons,yes, ribbons for your hair. We'll need to order a bou- tonniere. It'll have to be a rose; HE 'll look so cute with a rose. And let's see, you'll need to... Homecoming! It's a time for creating float ideas, fluffing posps, finding a date hoping HE will ask you and SHE will say yes, lots of hard work, and lots of good tiaes. Dancin' in the Streets, this year's Haaecoaing theae, offered auch room for imaginative floats and cafeteria decorations. The Friday before Hoaecoaing everyone thought the weekend would turn out to be a total disaster. The aoming announcements stated the football game scheduled for Saturday was postponed due to the standing water on the IL field. So what would happen? Would the dance be held at a later date also? What about the parade? These questions, and many more, were continually being asked by Southwest students throughout the day. At the Hoaecoaing Assembly the questions were answered. Hr. Johnson informed the student body of the change of events. The football game against O'Hara would be played Honday, the dance would remain on Saturday night, and the parade was still scheduled for Friday evening. With Honor Nine, the Poa Pon squad, a one man band, and floats, the parade proved to be entertaining to many despite the dreary weather. The participants displayed an i KJefeatable school spirit as they marched in the rain. There were many interesting ideas molded into floats this year. The senior class, however, stole the hearts of the judges receiving first place and a $100 prize. A large crowd of students, all spiffed up, attended the dance. Dancing and talking filled the atmosphere while everyone was anxiously awaiting the main attraction, the announceeaent of the Hoaecoaing Queen. The big moment cane - her court: Angie Bell, Ro8hawi Clay, Debbie Conchola, and Katy Nastali. Britney Johnson was announced as Second Attendant; Catherine Lewis as First Attendant, and finally - Misty Kennedy would be nased the 198586 Southwest Hoaecoaing Queen. 134 Mia Kirkpatrick helps decorate the cafeteria for the dance Right: The Seniors Show off their winning float.

Many believe that JROTC is an easy grade, but those who take the course say they are wrong. JROTC is not just sll fun and games or wearing uniforms; it is work. For example, JROTC students take map reading courses, first aid courses, rifle shooting cours- es, learn the parts of the rifle, and even write essays. Marching is not easy either, it is not just walking in a straight line, but learn- ing right flank, left flank, about face, and rear march. Also JROTC is discipline. Just imagine taking orders from your peers, or even giving them! Those very same people that you see in the halls and kid around with. It is a hard job to do! For those who desire more, there are the drill teams. There are five drill teams: the 22-5, Girls' Rifle Team, Rifle Team-Composite, and the Boys' Rifle Drill Team. These young people work hard four days a week after school to compete with inner city schools as well as military schools in state competition. The Southwest JROTC is headed by MAJ Beyer (who has taken the place of SGM Gran- tham) MSG Brouillette, and SFC Johnson. 136 ' nr COLOR COORDS GIRLS COLOR GUARD 1 aflRRy Thornton Erika Palmer Tammy Locke BOYS COLOR GUARD Maurice Johnson Darrell Green Chris Bradley RIFLE TEMII (L to R) Darrell Byrd, Chris Spears, Darrell Green, Chris Hagemann, Mike Carpenter.

The Red Cross Club at Southwest had a very productive year, branching out to aid aany local organizations. In addition to sponsoring the Baby Doll dance in Deceaber, Red Cross could always be seen throughout the yesr contributing to worthy causes. In Septeaber, students participated in a United Way drive which resulted in an $800,000 donation in the naae of Southwest students and faculty. October brought Red Cross members to Children's Mercy Hospital with Halloween aobiles to decorate the rooas. Friendship boxes were sent overseas at Christaas tiae, in February teachers were honored with carnations, and April saw the Kansas City Veteran's Adainistration receive Easter favors as a gift froa Red Cross. Students were also given the opportunity to speak across continents to students at Perth College in Australia. Mrs. Newton, the group's sponsor, lauded the club members for their involvement. Individual students should also be praised for their efforts. Several young people served as candy-stripers at local hospitals and nursing homes, helping those less for- tunate than themselves in any way they could. Red Cross is an organization that spans over 100 countries and has historical significance as a donator of aid in times of crisis. Although it is small, the Red Cross at Southwest certainly does its part to help our country. 145 First Rows Rone Patterson, Carrie Henderson, Naoni Hunt, Gail King, Philip Trotter, Nichole Thomas, Sherri Fristoe, Lanita Davis.

The Explorer's Club is a career oriented organization which is sponsored by outside businesses and is a project of the Boy Scouts of Americs. It places specific emphasis on job skills and service projects for the community. The Southwest chapter is sponsored by the Leeds Division of General Motors and was advised this year by Mrs. Banks. This year the Explorer's Club was active. In April, the students involved in the club learned how to write resimas and fill out job applications. Several guest speakers spoke to the students about their careers. They went on 8 field trip to Kansas University in Lawrence, Kansas. The organization'8 main community project this year was visiting the nursing hone at 53rd and Woodland. The club members took hone wade baked goods for the senior citi- zens. The residents of the nursing hone and the Explorers watched the movie Places in the Heart together. John Coleman, the host leader, said, These students felt that sonething needed to be done to extend a hand to the senior citizens of our community, so they felt that to visit and to let the residents know that someone still cared was impor- tant. 146 Mrs. Stevenin, Chris Downing, Traci Anderson, David Tuggle, Frank Freeland, Michael Pouncil, Donna Ward, Sandra Thomas, Chrishawn Brown, Kenny Wentworth, Sharon Weathers, Margo Smith, Nancy Nichols, Mary Burdett, Michelle Cox, Pricilla Leal, Eliza Mendoza.

The functions of Stage Crew are manifold - they must maintain all the lighting and sound equipment in the auditorii , they run all equipment during performances and assem- blies, they build sets and props, they help people create special effects, and they must be able to handle any emergency that might arise. The auditorii has a state-of-the-art sound system, but Stsge Crew sponsor Barbara Stevenin called the lighting system antiquated and said the lightboard takes skill and caution to operate. The stage crew has received many compliments from touring companies which perform at Southwest. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy though, and Stage Crew goes on field trips to Worlds of Fun and Waldo Astoria occasionally to unwind. Says Mrs. Stevenin, Stage Crew) is a lot of fin and a lot of hard work, but in the end you feel like you've done something worthwhile. 147 George Raabey Hr.

Each year, Southwest's German speaking students have the opportunity to visit Germany. This year fourteen Indians, along with Oak Park and Minot High School students, set forth on a two week journey to Germany. After flying ten hours on a plane and four hours on a bus, the students finally reached their destination - West Berlin. With a tight grasp around wilted flowers and I want my mommy looks on many scared faces, the students were happily greeted by their host families who only spoke one language - German. The second week of the trip was spent going to major West German cities and viewing various museuas and castles. Some of the major highlights were: The Gedachtniskirche in West Berlin, The Glokenspiel in Munich, East Berlin, Salzburg in Austria, and Doc Garcia's favorites The Torture Museus. The two week8 spent in Germany will always be remembered by those who experienced the culture and the excitement. The trip proved to be educational and much fun. ISO Front: Hike Hopkins. _ _ .

As well as being the largest cheerleading squad Southwest has had in recent years, it also proved to be one of the most talented. . .. The squad practiced throughout the summer preparing for cheerleading camp and the '85-'86 school year. They attended an International Cheerleading Foundation camp at M.U. in Coluebia where they finished third of thirty-nine squads in the final competition. Their third place finish qualified them for competition in the National Cheerleading Championship in Nashville, Tennessee. Although the squad was triable to attend the competition, they continued to work together during the year, supporting the athletic functions and bolstering school spirit. Captain Cathy Lewis praised her squad, This year's squad worked really well together and performed well as a group. The best thing about the squad was that we all stayed friends throughout the year and had fun together.

They were being kidnapped and taken to a breakfast in their honor. After the moOTing and groaning about getting 14) so early was over, the girls realized that their hard work had paid off. They had nade the 1985-86 Pan Pon squad Mia Kirkpatrick and Revena Nevels, chosen to be the squad's co-captains, had to stress to the new Pon Pon girls that being on Pon Pon requires a great deal of tine and hard work. Immediately when sinner vacation began, practices were held at school at 6:00 A.M. every norning. The dedication and hard work paid off. When Southwest's dancing dollies attended canp at Baker University in Baldwin City, Kansas, they not only received the spirit stick, but also an award for earning the nost blue ribbons! The squad cane back also informing parents and friends that they had qualified to go to a national conpetition of many Pon Pon squads in Orlando, Florids. The 1985-86 Pon Pon Girls found the year to be fun-filled but full of changes. Mrs. Young, their sponsor, left Southwest during the basketball season. The squad got back on top of things when Mr. Alter got the group re-organized and under his control. Because Mia Kirkpatrick chose to graduate at the end of the first senester, there wss a need for a new co-captain. Bridget O'Brien was chosen to fill the vacancy. Although the year was one of transition for the Pon Pon girls, they never failed to help Maintain Southwest's school spirit. While having lots of fun, the girls entertained •any while doing their routines for assemblies, football games, basketball games, and parades. The efforts of squad members, captains, and sponsors combined to make the year successful for the Pom Pon squad. DDNCIN' DOLLIES 161 First Row: Angie Bell, Susan Blevins.
