Your carefree attitude slowly ebbs from your life into a corner of your past. The sanctity of SCHS is no longer a protective option. Your many relationships created over the years are threatened by the scattering of the senior class. You've paid your last respects to high school life.

Some seniors celebrated their final year of school 'all year long. Expressing their jubilance after just an average day at school are Angie Sanchez, Lori Brown, Nicki Berndt, Tammy Anderson (front); Stacey Winger, Kristen Hoopingarner, and Jeff Hurlburt. _____________________________________________________ Photo by Ed Hurd 4 CARLOS LIMON CARRITHERS Senior Class Officers President: Robert Harrell Vice President: Stacey Winger Secretary: Mike Claassen Treasurer: Carsten Nielsen Sergeant of Arms: Chris Lewis Stuco: Dirk Cockrum Stuco: Amber Snowbarger Flower: Rose Motto: We stand together one more time for the time has come to stand alone Colors: Dark Blue.

When the group arrived in Mexico City they enjoyed explor- ing their new and very different cultural surroundings The group had many interesting and unusual experiences during its stay in Mexico City. It was interesting to see how people wanted to asso- ciate with us. At times we had several policemen following us down the street and wanting to know if we were lost! exclaimed Christine Troup The group visited many famous sites and medieval monuments within the district of Mexico City During the group’s stay in the city, they toured cultural sites such as the Museum of Anthropology, the Holy Shrine of Guadalupe, and Chapultepec Park.

While Loverboy's “Heaven in Your Eyes filled the piercingly cold night, Denise Troup announced Lori Tilley as the 1986 Fall Festival Queen. Cheers permeated the frigid air as Dirk Cock rum crowned and kissed the queen. Cristine Troup and Tammy Anderson were also crowned by their escorts, Jeff Hurlburt and Chris Lewis. Shivering, yet happy, Lori and her court reigned over a 28 to 7 Trojan vic- tory against the Lakin Broncs. The court consisted of fresh- men Amy Zollinger and Stuart McMichael; sophomores Dyane Morris and Brandon Fisher; juniors Teresa Adams and Eric Deyle.

On Wild-N-Crazy Day, students came to school dressed in their most “far out clothes, chains, and hair paint. It was not until Opposite Sex Day that any- one except a few close and trusted friends knew that Jason Davidson had had a baby and was pregnant with another. Razzle Dazzle Day brought ev- eryone's finest clothes from the back of his or her closet and showed how classy Trojans can be. Friday's pep rally was the high point of the week. As the Fresh- man, Sophomore, and Junior at- tendants and escorts compet- ed in a human obstacle course, the Seniors prepared for the up- coming Candidate Game, a take-off of television's Newly- wed Game. — Copy and lay- out by Teresa Adams In his Sammy Hagar shirt and his camou- flage fatigues, the only thing distinguish- ing Mr. St. John from student Wild-N-Cra- zies is his receding hair line.

Although the cheer- leaders had planned Spirit Week to encourage student involve- ment. students responded indif- ferently to almost all but B.Y.O.B. Day. Box 'Em Out and Top 'Em Off Day. Rainbow Day (during which each class donned a different color), and Puttin' on the Ritz Day were the other Spirit Week days. The climactic point of Spirit Week was the pep rally on Friday. The freshman, sophomore, and junior attendants and escorts participated in a traditional hero- villain skit while the seniors pre- pared for “Dress Your Partner, a race among the blindfolded es- corts to dress their candidates in a garbage bag, belt, jewelry, and make-up. Flaving been dressed, the candidates were judged on their appearance by Mrs. Pickerign and Mr. Hottle. — Copy and layout by Teresa Adams Chris Martin and Missi Yeager, below right, attempt to improvise to a narrated script despite an urge to giggle Seriously considering hibernation on B.Y.O.B.

Underclass attendants and escorts scan the crowd for signs of friendly faces. Re- presenting freshmen were Gabby Avalos and John Adams, sophomores chose Missi Yeager and Guy Martin; juniors selected Kim Hebberd and Chris Martin. “Will You Still Love Me , by Pe- ter Cetera set the mood for one of the most special moments of the year, the coronation of the Winter Festival Queen Amber Snowbarger and King Robert Har- rell on February 6. Adding a King to the ceremonies was a change made by Stuco in order to involve male students in the festivities. The change made the crowning a more complicated procedure, since Amber and Robert needed to switch partners to crown each other. The change was well re- ceived by the student body. Stuco decorated the area where the royalty sat with yellow and white streamers and Precious Mo- ment figures and prepared and presented the script introducing the candidates. Disappointingly, the contracted DJ, Metra, failed to appear and the homecoming dance was canceled. Copy and layout by Nicki Berndt Donning formal attire for a brief interlude as a queen candidate.

Stuco changes festival Shocking? Controversial? One might have expected STUCO's proposal to add a king to the Winter Festival royalty to create more of a stir than it did. The change, how- ever, was made with little concern, com- ment, or enthusiasm by the student body. STUCO President Ed Hurd praised his mem- bers. calling them a very hardworking bunch. The entire group sponsored dances, kept the pop machines full, and decorated the school Christmas tree. A school-day exchange was arranged between Stanton County and Syracuse STUCO members. Aaron Anderson and Cris- tine Troup spent one day attending classes with Syracuse students and several Bulldogs visited classes in Johnson, an enlightening experience for bofh groups. Sponsor Chuck Hottle indicafed fhat the group wanted to carry out some communi- ty services projects, but were unable to get them organized this year.

They learned some songs and dances typical of Mexico and watched some films of the Span- ish Club's trip to Mexico in the summer of '86.

During the year Y- Teens had two major projects. They made cookies for the L.T.C.U. and they also had a modeling workshop for the mothers and daughters of Y-Teens. Ja- net Figgens showed them different ways to model clothing. When asked about the workshop, sponsor Marylin Ruth said, It was wonderful and we had lots of fun. Janet told us about some of the different schools you can attend that will help you with your mo- deling career.

While the masquerade did not rival the Mardi Gras, the reveling did. Although the banquet servers were far from being strangers to anyone, the theme Strangers in The Night was obviously what they had in mind when they dressed as mimes. While the serv- ers were unrecognizable, after several moments of close specu- lation one discovered that they were Darrin Figgins, Aaron Ander- son, Brandon Fisher, Guy Martin, Brian Nicholas, Denise Troup, Diane Morris, Kerri Hoopingarner, Mindy Brown, and Susan Tilley. People enjoyed the delicious menu of steak, baked potatoes, and salad, served by these lone- some strangers. After dinner, the traditional reading of the senior will was presented by Diane Ni- cholas. The class prophecy, an excursion into fantasy, was read by Shelli Goertzen and Tammy Brown. Sponsors for the event were Dee Claassen and Faydean Fiss. Juniors spent approximately $2,240.80 on food and decora- tions. — Copy and layout by Jorge Sandoval Photo by Arm Davis that masked man latches Susan, jhiiev to A whispered description of an American prom tradition delights Carsten Nielsen Diane Nicholas reacts to Dirk Cockrum's refusal to will anything to anyone because no one is good enough.

Aaron Ander- son's Heinie is revealed to his four fiancfees Creeps aptly describes what the new all school play. The Creature Creeps, gave specta- tors who attended the perfor- mance expecting laughs instead of terror. A foreboding set, cre- ated by co-director Kraig Dexter, and the excruciating moans of Mike Pavlis sent shivers down the backs of adults and left some children running for the door. The eerie atmosphere was reinforced by effective make-up, some genuinely perverse characters, and a whacky cast who dreamed up imaginative bits of business for the characters they portrayed. The lack of quality and interest in the junior and senior plays re- sulted in an experimental all- school play. Not only were the tryouts open to any student, but each class was represented in the actual play, co-director Ker- rin Smith emphasized. The cast of twelve and a crew of eight was forced to perform the play only four weeks after practices be- gan. The practices were long, and everyone concentrated on their character, commented sophomore Aaron Anderson. — Copy and layout by Sarah Hume.

JUNIORS Kim Hebberd and Debbie Terrill enjoy their free time in the library. 30 Juniors Flash Glittering Smiles Metal Mouth, Tin Grin, Four Eyes, and Brace Face; these are all nicknames given to those un- fortunate people with poor eye- sight or crooked teeth. To make themselves more attractive, twenty-two percent of the junior class wore retainers, while fifty- three percent wore glasses or contacts. Optometrist appoint- ments plagued the school year. Students feared food getting caught in their braces, and kids ran the risk of losing their retain- ers. A few juniors lost their glasses while leaning out of the window of a car. Kim Hebberd lost hers at the bottom of a lake. But for most, the price in bucks and in- convenience was worth it. — Copy and layout by Sarah Flume “I’ll show you mine if you show me yours ' Stephen Shepard tells Larame Like as they compare dental work V 31 Aaron Anderson Susan Ashida Glenn Barber Tonya Berndt Frankie Boehs Mindy Brown Chad Dillion Darrin Figgins Becky Fira Brandon Fisher Bill Haney Kerri Hoopingarner Dyane Morris Brian Nicholas Stacy O'Bryan Jason Pope Bethanie Popejoy Angela Rector Karla Sipes Donna Stephens Rick Swick Suasn Tilley Denise Troup Thomas Trujillo SOPHOMOR Junior class officers included Susan Ashida.

Each locker reveals the personality of its occupant, although some students have gone to great pains to establish their lockers as shrines to contem- porary celebrity figures as well. Locker paraphernalia fall into several categories: The Poster Includes rock stars ranging from Bon Jovi to Air Sup- ply or movie TV stars such as Tom Cruise and Heather Thomas. The Romantic Print One or more pictures of the current boy- friend or girlfriend. Maintenance Equipment: Magnetic mirrors, brushes and combs. Survival Supplies Coffee cups, cookies, gum, and smug- gled cokes. Trash: Old fests, pop cans, and candy wrappers. With such locker decor sopho- mores have succeeded in turning a purely practical object into a mini art form, a triumph of sfyle over function.

A ton of fun but tough judges were in store for the S.C. band as they journeyed to Kansas City on April 10 and 11 to perform in the Worlds of Fun Festival of Bands. After a long bus ride and a short night, band members packed, practiced, and performed by 9:00 a.m. The band received a II rating on their performance of Silver Crest March and “Cen- turia Overture, according to Duane Williams, band director.

Inspired by the annual workshop at Garden City, Jamey Jones suggested using phones as a theme, which quickly developed into a metaphor for connec- tions of all kinds. This year the staff worked ex- ceptionally hard to produce a publication as good as the '86 book, which was featured in Jos- ten's workshops. The '86 book was also critiqued by the National Scholastic Press Association and was given a First Class Rating. Special Page Credits Division Page Layouts: Seniors. Nicki Berndt.

Six members of the National Honor Society went to Black Mesa in Oklahoma in May. Stranded in the middle of the open ranges of the Oklahoma Panhandle, these students en- joyed tracking dinosaur tracks, mounting Mt. Capulin, and hop- ping the hills around the area. Re- creational attractions at the park were fishing with pop bottles and safety pins, all night card tourna- ments, TPing the sponsor's Tee- Pee, scaring snakes, and be- friending a benign canine dubbed Gizmo. — Copy and layout by Mike Claassen National Honor Society members includ- ed. back row Yolanda Scholl, Karla Sipes.

The selection committee included Jack LaFay. chairman. Ark Morris. Ann Davis. Kerrin Smith, and Chuck Mottle Expanding the National Honor Society to include a more diverse group of students was the goal of head sponsor Jack LaFay and principal Chuck Hottle. Conse- quently. the grade requirements were lowered in order to allow more students to become eligi- ble. These requirements are: 3.5 for sophomores, 3.4 for juniors, and 3.3 for seniors. In addition, students are rated on character, leadership, and service. The present and future mem- bers were honored by a family breakfast on May 5th and an in- duction ceremony in which Ken Hathaway was guest speaker. A mere five present members — Beth Barber (3 years), Mike Claas- sen, Kristen Hoopingarner, Monte Yingling, and Teresa Adams (all two year members) — were joined by 21 new members. 40 Also Excelling .... Several student projects re- ceived recognition at shows or festivals. Those which were not featured elsewhere appear on this page.

Yet, Edmundo Ullrich, Carsten Nielsen, and Lyn Kendrick set out to do just that. Each made several interesting discoveries. Visit to Southwest Leads Dane to Dispute Bard’s Claim Concerning State of Denmark LEAVE AND LEARN Exchange Students Elaborate “I kinda like my hair long, Ed- mundo Ullrich said with a sly smile. Accustomed to a close haircut and a school uniform, Edmundo happily adjusted to our casual standards. Switching classes was also a new experience for Edmundo; in Mexico, the teachers change classrooms in- stead of the students. In Mexico, Ed- mundo would practice basketball once or twice a week and only play other classrooms within his school. Being part of the SCHS Trojan team took up a lot of his free time. Some of the things we take for granted, Edmundo considered fas- cinating, such as having lockers to store our numerous books, having tables to eat lunch on, playing sports against different schools, and enjoy a pop break once in a while. Living with the Verne Fiss family provided Edmundo the opportunity to visit Fort Hays State University, travel to Phoenix, and attend some horse races. Just by looking at Carsten Niel- sen, wearing his Pepe jeans, Trojan letterjacket, and senior class key, it would be difficult to tell that he was from a small town near Copenha- gen, Denmark. Before venturing to the Southwest, Carsten spent his free time going to the beach, play- ing soccer, and partying with friends. despite the fact that he was an 42 Allerslev Skole graduate. Carsten chose to delay college for a year and study in the U.S. School was in- deed different. At Allerslev, his school days varied from 5 to 10 hours long. With his blonde hair, blue eyes, and ever-trendy attire, Carsten slipped easily into the social scene. Even though he had never played football before, Carsten proved to be a valuable player by scoring sev- eral crucial extra point kicks. Carsten made himself at home with the Darrell Ruth family. While with them, he went water skiing and attended the Ks. State Fair. Hometown Girl Discovers a Fjord In her Future On July 29th, 1986, lyn Kendrick boarded a plane to Oslo, Norway and began the experience of a life- time. Not only did she change her address; she was changing her en- tire way of life. Although the Norwe- gian language was foreign to her, Lyn adapted to it fairly easily. Lyn explained that at first it was difficult to read Norwegian and speak it, because she was seeing Norwegian and thinking English. Attending school at Brandbu was much the same as attending school at SCHS. Her schedule included many classes that are offered at SCHS. However, in Johnson, Lyn drove a block and a half to school; in Brandbu, Lyn walked a mile and a half to school. She also learned about many of their traditions and taught them some of ours. Needless to say, when English essays were as- signed, she became quite popular. Living with the Jacobsens gave Lyn the chance to do many things that she hadn't yet had the oppor- tunity to try. She attended a few rock concerts, went sailing, and vis- ited several nearby countries. Even though she would have an occasional attack of homesickness, she soon came to enjoy her new life. When asked if she was ready to come home, Lyn said that she would rather move her family and friends to Norway. — Copy by Ja- mey Jones FAIR IS FOUL, Lady Macbeth proves to be Lady Luck for Quiz Bowl Team As the final sound of the buzzer reverberated, a bright red light beaconed. Smiles crept over the anxious faces of Stanton Coun- ty's Quiz Bowl team .. It was the perfect question for a tie-break- er: “What famous Shakespear- ean character stated, ’Out damn spot! Out I say!'? The answer. Lady Macbeth, proved to be a winner for SC. The next match against Leoti was also a close one. As the final question came up, the teams were tied. The question sprang from the an- nouncer's lips, a furious scurry en- sued for a button. The question: What famous Shakespearean character washed her hands to rid herself of the blood? SC an- swered again. Lady Macbeth FOUL IS Yingling rejoices as Claassen gives a de- cisive answer SC went on to a very respect- able season, capturing second at the league tournament. But the team will never forget how a ficti- tious female psychotic returned the many hours spent on her be- half by pointing them to success in two crucial quiz bowl rounds. Although several students par- ticipated occasionally, five regu- lars formed the core team: Mike Claassen, Chris Lewis. Dirk Cock- rum, Stacey Winger, and Monte Yingling. The sponsor was Dee Claassen. Stanton County hosted the first League Quiz Bowl as well. — Copy by Mike Claassen 43 No tardies, no absentees at SC? No, sorry, these classroom rarities were discovered by Ann Davis during her visit to Henan Province in China as part of a del- egation of teachers to Kansas' sister state. Ms. Davis filled several days observing the Chinese teaching systems. Although the classes contain 50-75 students, there are no tardies, absentees, or disciplinary problems. Rote learning is emphasized partly be- cause they lack resources and partly because it is a tradition. Besides exploring aspects of the Chinese education system, Ms. Davis had the opportunity to visit many famous “wonders, such as The Great Wall, the terra cotta army of the Qin emperor at Xi'an, and a rare brown panda. She attended Canton's open market, where she observed cats, birds, snakes, and all types of sea creatures for sale as food. She also consumed such exotic dishes as black rice, camel hoof soup, and pig snouts. Comparing standards of living and ideals with the Chinese proved to be an enthralling ex- perience. Garages, for example, were inconceivable to them. “Do people actually have houses for their cars? they wondered. Troy Sadler's high school con- struction class spent more than six months building a pair of ga- zebos for the Stanton County Centennial. Starting the middle of September and laboriously build- ing until the end of March, this class of five spent the fifth and sixth hours creating the sixteen- foot gazebos of weather insect resistant lumber and multi-pur- pose wood screws. Consequent- ly, the pair of gazebos — one lo- cated half a block north of the stoplight and the other directly south of the stoplight — were built to last the ravages of time.

Fay- dean Fiss also left the modern, dry environment of Kansas and ar- rived in the ancient, humid re- gions of Mexico. Approximately 30 people explored the Yucatan Peninsula of southeastern Mexico. They visited Palenque and Chi- chen Itza, the famous pyramids of the Mayan Indians. Most of the areas they visited were very primitive and scarcely discov- ered by tourists; therefore, Span- ish was the language. After trek- ing over ruins that dated back to 1200 B.C., the group ended the tour in CanCun, a resort area that's only 14 years old. Making information more ac-. cessible to students and making sure that the audio visual equip- ment was on hand and ready for use fell into the capable hands of Mike Toole. Fie was kept contin- ually busy by students needing several sources on a variety of subjects for innumerable term pa- pers, essays, and paragraphs. Mike also introduced some trendy magazines and weeded out some of the less popular ones. Deyonne Pickerign took ad- vantage of seventh period to further the skills of Typing ll of- fice practice class. During the last nine weeks, the six students ventured into the business world of Johnson, Kansas. The girls took jobs with employers in the com- munity doing clerical duties and odd jobs. The girls enjoyed the experience, and some were of- fered the chance of a summer job. Mrs. Pickerign felt the idea was a success and is looking for- ward to it again next year.

Would you be- lieve 27 screaming juniors sent from Mrs.Shepard's junior English class represented their appoint- ed gods on the high school stage? During a mythology unit, students spent a week research- ing the actions and reactions their assigned gods would have on current issues, and then spent an hour cussing and discussing these issues in their town meeting. Mrs. Shepard saw this simulation as a success because it shows what the students did know in- stead of what they didn't know through testing. How can eggs be used to study child care and develop- ment? Mrs. Ruth used eggs to ac- quaint her home economics and family living classes with the re- sponsibilities of having a child. The students painted faces on their eggs and gave them names. Then the were required to have their children with them at all times or hire a baby-sitter. A diary was kept of the child's activities and development. One child had a fatal accident and was buried with all the appropriate funeral rites. Mrs. Ruth felt that the activ- ity made the students aware of the responsibilities involved in having a child. Creating a short skit for the high school vocal class to per- form at the winter concert was only one of the exciting tasks Duane Williams decided to un- dertake. Mr. Williams also assisted the show choir in the develop- ment of a dance routine choreo- graphed to their favorite musical numbers. He took the band to Fort Hays State University and to Worlds of Fun. During seventh hour Mr. Williams gave private les- sons to several band members.

The girls also ran the cross country course and played volleyball against the boys, but the highlight of the year's activities centered around the decathlon. Each girl was required to participate in 10 track and field events in order to complete the class. During health. Coach Barber had the girls write a detailed paper con- cerning one of a number of infec- tious diseases. A picture is worth a thousand words, so Coach Carruth intro- duced videotape footage of both world wars into his American history and western civilization classes. Some of the footage came from gun mounted cam- eras, showing the action of bat- tle. while others show life in the U.S. during the war. These 14 hours of PBS bring the visual ex- perience of war into the class- room effectively. Kerrin Smith’s Lab Exper- iences was one of fhe success- ful seventh hour classes. Stu- dents became acquainted with the lab equipment at the science room. For example, one group learned how glass is made. An- other grew crystals, while another, made soap. The major event consisted of the rocket kits. When finished, the remote control rock- ets soard more than 400 feet into the air. One took aerial portraits. The class was a success, and stu- dents were able to experiment with unused lab equipment. Giant worm-like creatures, anything anyone ever wanted to know about the “Wheat State, and a journey into the human brain: these were all subjects of books presented by Mr. Brey at a “Book Talk.

Even before setting foot on the campus at Lawrence, Mrs. Claassen had read three novels. The workshop, sponsored by the Kansas Association for the Hu- manities, consisted of four hours of discussion in the morning fol- lowed by an afternoon of read- ing and researching that often lasted until late evening. One of the highlights of the workshop was a banquet that honored the writer of the year. After the ban- quet there was an open sympo- sium with the award winner. The focus of the workshop was to help teachers find a place for sci- ence fiction in their curriculum. In 14 days Mrs. Claassen read a to- tal of approximately 50 short sto- ries. In the process of obtaining his masters degree In computers, Mr. Eskew has attended many computer seminars in various parts of the country. He has at- tended the Using IBM and Disk Operating Systems (DOS) in Okla- homa City, the Mid-America Conference in Salina, the Nation- al Computer Education Confer- ence in San Diego, and numerous computer and robotic seminars in Colorado Springs. His expertise was apparent in both his high school and evening adult classes he teaches. Mr. Dexter’s basics for the teaching of art lies In the funda- mentals.

She attributed the increase in class size to the coordination of the math curricu- lum between the district schools. And for those seniors who be- lieved they had forgotten every equation they had ever forced to learn, there was a senior review math class the first semester of seventh hour to revive their memories. Improving student interest in mathematics became a major concern of first year teacher Todd St. John. Yet through var- ious statistical polls, contests, and mousetrap-powered missile launcers, Mr. St. John did just that. Three senior boys took on the challenge posed to them by Mr. St. John, What can be done with two mousetraps, a ping-pong ball, and unlimited creativity? Each boy entered a mousetrap- powered, ping-pong ball launch- er in a K-State contest of the same name. Though none placed, all three students en- joyed participating in such a ridic- ulously ridiculous contest. Just say NOI An expanded chapter on drug and alcohol abuse was studied in the learning disabilities classroom. Julia Blair and Caren Kerr explained the af- fects that drugs and alcohol have on the body. Most of the chapter centered on the fatal accidents that occur while a per- son is under the influence and the costly consequences that always follow. The sexual drive, second only to hunger, Is the strongest Im- pulse experienced by humans. This fact, the high incidence of teenage pregnancies, and the national panic concerning vene- real diseases, convinced Coach Morris to develop a unit on birth control. He described each meth- od and evaluated the availabil- ity, reliability, safety, and efficien- cy of each.

Monte Yingling was the only runner on the boys team to qualify for state. This was the second year in 26 years that the boys cross country team had not qualified for state. The entire girls team easily qualified for state and placed seventh out of eighteen teams. Individually, Debbie Terrill placed tenth out of 148 girls at the state meet in Manhattan, re- ceiving All-State honors. Monte Yingling placed twelfth out of 104 runners at state.

Although their 347 score was 20 points higher than their league performance, it was still 15 points lower than that of their clos- est competitor, Syracuse. The regional win produced two medalists as well: Aaron Anderson (81) and Coy Martin (86). The titles helped ease the keen disappoint- ment the golfers felt when they failed to place at the state meet in Salina. Chris Cockreham maintained the best average throughout the sea- son, but all varsity golfers managed to shave at least a stroke off their averages. The team was coached by Dave Roach, Larry Hoopingarner, and Roger Pickerign. — Layout and pho- tos by Coy Martin The golf team included Shara Ruth. Stacy Winger. Lisa Hoopingarner. Aaron Anderson.

Monte's sprint- ing ability, however, won him a second-place medal at the state meet in the 400m Passing the baton is critical to Debbie Terrill and SheHi Goertzen.

The an- swer from varsity cheerleaders would be a resounding “NO! For them, cheerleading is plain hard work, although the rewards for most make it worthwhile. Veter- an cheerleaders Tammy Ander- son and Beth Barber, who cheered all four years of high school, regard cheerleading as “FUN.FUN.FUN. but HARD.HARD- ,HARD! Cheerleaders spent hun- dreds of hours preparing spirit posters and planning pep rallies as well as cheering at games. And some of the pep rallies were extraordinary productions. Stu- dent favorites almost always in- volved cross dressing by students and faculty, although the tradi- tional ways of changing appear- ances with food or makeup were still popular. Cheerleaders prepared for their year by attending camp at Emporia, which Jamey Jones de- scribed as a “Concentration Camp.

He received an undergraduate degree at Central Missouri State, a Masters degree at New Mexico Highlands, and a special degree at Pittsburgh State in the field of education. In the twenty-five years afterwards. Mr. Hottle spent ten years in the United States Navy as an aviator and fifteen years as a teacher, coach, and administrator in the states of Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexi- co. I am thrilled to be the principal of what I think is the best high school in the state. The attitudes, accomplishments, and school spirit of our students is topnotch in all respects. I hope our seniors will go out into the community, the colleges, and the work force with the skills to do well and the drive to be the best. They have been leaders and have represented our school with excellence. Above all, be proud of where you grew up and where you went to school. High school is one of the truly interesting times in one's life. To our returning students, and to our seniors to be in 1988, we ask for your continued best efforts and the desire to keep Stanton County on top. It is your school, and whatever you want people to think about it will be a result of your dedicaton. — Chuck Hottle ■ MAINTENANCE!

The seventh and eighth grade boys' medley relay teams also gave exceptional performances, taking first place in almost every meet. The eighth grade runners were J.D. Schwizer — 110, Alex Partida — 440, Sean Umberger — 220, and Buell Mattix — 110. Seventh graders were J. Scott — 110, Kris Foresman — 220, Paul Kaufman — 440, and Derek Yin- gling — 110.

BAND AND VOCAL HARD WORK An astounding 1 + thrilled mid- dle school band members after their performance at the Hugo- ton Music Festival. The musicians also received a 1 rating at the league festival. Both vocal groups, girls and mixed chorus, rated 2 at both festivals. Vocal and band presented Christmas and spring concerts PLAYS OFF and added a special concert for senior citizens in the fall. In addition, the band played at halftime at one football game and one basketball game. In May, they entertained the com- munity with their traditional brown bag concert on the courthouse lawn. Both groups were directed by Duane Williams. 79 Citizenship Promoted by Project for Centennial A community service project undertaken by SCMS was plant- ing flowers in the merchant's bar- rels along Main Street. The plant- ing was organized by Ken Hathaway and was timed to co- incide with Stanton County's centennial celebration. Helping Ken Hathaway prepare soil for a barrel of flowers are Alex Partida, Manuel Reyes, and Michael Snell, left. Science Fair Projects Bring Home Bacon Terri Daniels' science students made an impressive showing at the League Science Fair in the spring. Based on projects exhibit- ed at the school's science fair. Miss Daniels selected entries for league competition. Judged against projects from five other league schools, SCMS students nabbed four first-place awards out of eight categories. They came away with 10 out of a total of 26 medals. Feeling especially good about their projects were these first- place winners: Eighth Grade MICHAEL SNELL, Biological Re- search TONY BOEHS, Physical Demon- stration Seventh Grade TYSON TEETER, Physical Demon- stration CINDA JONES, Biological Demon-, stration ft SCMS Faculty: Building a Positive School Environment Building a positive middle school environment required the concerted efforts of principal Jack LaFay and his four, full-time faculty members. Two teachers, Keren Duran and Sharon Park, presented their techniques in a workshop at the league confer- ence in the fall. Among the most unusual ideas for creating a positive school en- vironment was the academic pep rally, complete with cheer- leaders. The rally recognized hon- or roll students as well as those who brought their grades up (BUGs). Making each student feel spe- cial was the purpose of the VIK (Very IMPORTANT Kid) dinners. A bevy of awards were given for a variety of positive student beha- viors, from citizenship awards to Trojan Scholar designations. Wearing colorlul jams and T-shirts, SCMS teachers were as much into Beach Party Day. part of Spirit Week, as the students. The teachers were, left, Keren Duran, who taught English, was the librarian, and sponsored cheerleaders and the seventh grade class. Terri Daniels, who taught science and sponsored the eighth grade class as well as coaching girls basketball, volleyball, and track. Larry Dasenbrock, who taught social studies, sponsored the eighth grade class, and coached football and track: and Sharon Park, who taught math, computers, and sponsored the sev- enth grade class. 81 Johnson Grade School Adds Computer Center H E A R I N G I M P A I R E D Major improvements were made at JGS according to Larry Johnson, principal. A hallway was transformed into an enclosed computer center, and a new lawn with a sprinkler system was installed. A library book fair was orga- nized by Gordon Brey, media specialist.
