Who's Who in Academics Dedication is the key to being able to maintain a 3.5 average at the end of seven semesters and still be an active participant in a wide variety of activities offered at TCHS. Eleven of this year's seniors were able to do just that! The Sagittarius staff wished to take time out to SALUTE each of Pamela Lynn DeVillez has been active during her four years at Tell City High School. She participated in the French Club for 2 years; furthermore, she was active in the Pep Club for all four years. Pam was a member of the National Hon- or Society, and participated in the CYO organization at her church. Pam said that underclassmen should work hard during their high school ca- reer. This will enable them to achieve the goals they want and also they should try to give assistance and support them. We realized the total com- mitment each student made to himself and TCHS during the past four years. It took a delicate balance of sacrifice such as studying in the wee hours, dedi- cation, and enthusiasm to main- tain such a grade point average. Because each of these individ- Favorite hobbies of Chuck Cravens were photography and bowling. In addi- tion, he enjoyed listening to and playing basketball, baseball, football and tennis. Chuck was a member of National Honor Society, the French Club, and the Sci- ence Club. He was an active member of the Marksman staff. Chuck said that underclassmen should use their time wisely because a student must have an appropriate balance be- tween study and leisure time. When asked about the problems of the to others around them as they need it. Thinking about the problems of the world around her, Pam decided the ma- jor problem of today is unemployment. There just doesn't seem to be enough jobs for everyone. The people that helped her most dur- ing her career at TCHS were her par- ents, as they supported every decision she made. As of right now, Pam had made no definite plans for the future. She did want to enter the business field. Diane Dooley was active in many clubs and activities. She was a member of the Spanish Club, National Honor So- ciety, Drama Club, CYO, Pep Club, Key Club, and Track Girls. She also took part in intramurals and was a member of the Marksman staff. Diane was on the track team. She attended the Honor Banquets during high school. Diane's advice to underclassmen is to be “who you want to be and not who you think you should be in life''. They must set their own goals in life and GO uals were so successful, the staff interviewed each to share with you their achievements, hopes, and fears. It is our wish that ev- eryone might take a little more pride in their own work after reading this. world. Chuck said that he was concerned because any one country could start a devastating nuclear war. Chuck attributed part of his success to his parents and teachers. He also pointed out that his own personal ambition helped him to achieve his goals. Upon graduation Chuck planned to at- tend Indiana State University at Terre Haute. At this time he was interested in entering the field of Elementary Educa- tion. He considered obtaining a minor in French. FOR IT! The only problem in the world, ac- cording to Diane, is egoism—everyone is in it for himself alone. She felt all other problems stemmed from this. She realized that friends were an im- portant part of reaching her goals. An extra hand or two seemed to make her work a little easier. Western Kentucky appeared in Diane's plans for the future. She is interested in studying in the field of communications. Who's Who 15

Patty Dupre kept a full schedule by participating in a wide variety of activi- ties. These included National Honor So- ciety, Pep Club, Spanish Club, Outdoors Club, Band, Young Life, Girl's Intramurals, the Prom committee, and serving as an office girl. She was a Girl's State delegate. Patty feels that high school is the best time of your life, but also the start of adulthood. Therefore, she advised under- classmen to mix fun and education for a proper balance. When questioned about world prob- lems, Patty felt the major problem right now is that most people are too con- cerned about themselves and they don't show enough interest in their fellow- man. When asked about the influences on her achievements, Patty felt that her par- ents and family contributed greatly. She appreciated all of their support. She has plans to attend Indiana Uni- versity where she hopes to pursue a ca- reer in working with the handicapped. School took up much of Scott Etienne's time as he was involved in the French Club, in the Marching Marksmen Band, in the Pep Band, and also served as president of the National Honor Soci- ety. During his spare time Scott enjoyed swimming, fishing, gardening, and lis- tening to music. Scott felt that underclassmen should take the type of classes that will help them in the future. It is important to start planning for the future now. He also urged all students to keep trying and never give up. Pep Club, Spanish Club, Varsity Club, Varsity Basketball, National Honor Soci- ety, Intramurals, and being an office girl were all part of Joni Elder's activities. In addition she was on the tennis team her freshman year. She enjoyed all kinds of sports, reading, and corresponding with pen pals. In her remaining spare time Joni collected stamps. In giving advice to underclassmen, Joni said they should decide what they want out of life and then go for it. They should set goals and strive to meet them. If they work hard, their goals are attain- Violence is the major world problem in 1982 according to Scott. People should just learn to get along with each other. Various teachers and his parents have helped Scott through his high school ca- reer. They helped him achieve his goals. However, he feels his own personal dedication and hard work paid off most of all. Scott is headed for the University of Evansville in the fall of 1982. He sees his future as becoming an Electrical En- gineer. able. Joni feels the major problem in the world today is hunger. She feels it im- perative that a solution be found in or- der to prevent starvation. Her parents and teachers were instru- mental in her achievements. It was im- portant to know she had the support of those around her. Attending Indiana University and majoring in computer science were Joni's plans for the future. She planned to use this knowledge while working in the business world. Acrobatics, bike riding, and swimming were Kelli Everitt's hobbies. She was in- volved in cheerleading, in the Spanish Club, in Young Life, in the Pep Club, in National Honor Society, and in the Var- sity Club. She also attended the Honor Banquets. In advising underclassmen, Kelli felt that they should never underestimate themselves. If they want something bad enough, confidence in themselves will help them reach their goals. In Kelli's opinion, the major problem in today's world is unemployment. She was worried that a solution might not be found soon enough. Kelli's parents and friends played a major role in the achievement of her goals. Without their support her success in school would have been much more difficult. Purdue University is in the future for Kelli. She planned to enroll there in the fall in order to pursue a career in engi- neering. 16 ) Who's Who
