% Times As the temperatures rose above 100 degrees during the summer of ’83, most people stayed in air condi- tioning. However, those who wished to ignore the extreme temperatures were found participating in the many activities available in and around Tell City. A few enjoyed taking the “plunge” at the John F. Kennedy pool, while others headed for the area’s beaches. The Schweitzer Fest, which celebrated Tell City’s 125th birthday, the Perry County 4-H Fair, and the Jaycee’s Fourth of July picnic were popular events. Summer was also a time of work for many stu- dents. Santa Claus Land was a popular place of employment. Some earned money babysitting or working at local businesses. A few picked up hay for area farmers. In addition, students kept busy by at- tending music, athletic, scout, and yearbook camps. The summer was over before anyone was ready, and another school year began. Prevail! Above: Making the splash is [unior Mike Stowe.

DEBBIE REIGNS February 3, 1984 will be one night Debbie Ludwig will never forget, for this is the night she was crowned the 1984 Basketball Homecoming Queen. When the queen was announced by Freshmen Traci Blunk and Mary Jane Smitely, the candidates, attendants, and crowd cheered. Debbie was then crowned by her escort, David Goffinet, and presented with a bouquet of roses by Football Queen Michelle Heitkemper. Although Tell City went down in defeat in the ballgame, this ceremony is one that will stick in most minds. The Homecoming Dance featured WQMF- Rock and Roll Machine. Above: Being Basketball Homecoming Queen is something to re- member forever. Enjoying the moment is Queen D. Ludwig. To get everything just right for the Homecoming ceremonies, the court was dismissed early from classes for rehearsal. Pictured are: D. Luecke, C. Becker,]. Ashby. ]. Brinksneader. E. May. M. Ewing.

This year many students actively supported the school and showed their pride. A very important factor of victory is the spirit of the student body at athletic events and at school. During the school year, a few pep sessions were held providing an occasion to fire-up” the teams and providing an opportunity for intraclass rivalries to flare-up. The cheerleaders and various staff members tried to create an atmosphere whereby the students would en- joy themselves, rather it be by psyching up a team to victory, by dancing the night away, or by merely yelling the glories of their class. More dances were held this year than during the past four. Dances, basically, provided the students with a great way to celebrate a victory (or to forget a de- feat), increase attendance at games, and give the dance sponsors a fast, easy fund raiser. School spirit is once more on the rise. And we hope it continues because the student body directly affects the success and glory of “the dear old school.” SPIRIT 13
