The November election ended the political rivalry for the office of President between President Jimmy Carter and Governor Ronald Reagan. After a close competition, Republican Ronald Reagan was inaugurated the 40th President of the United States, January 20, 1980, with George Bush, second-in-command. “With all the creative energy at our command, let us begin an era of national renewal,” President Reagan said in his inaugural address. “Let us renew our determination our courage and our strength. Let us renew our hope. We have every right to dream heroic dreams.” Americans revised their hope, courage, and determination during the 444 days of Iranian captivity of 52 American hostages. The hostages were seized by Moslem militants November 4, 1979, at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. The yellow ribbon became a symbol of American hope. The people tried to spread their hope and courage to the 52 hostages in the thousands of cards and letters sent overseas. ’SO-’SJ, An Eventful fear Top Right: Upon the release of the hostages, Troy lowered the 12 flags flown in their honor. Above: Jeff Clary and instructor set up computer programs, a new project at THS. Only after 14 Vi long months of determination and negotiations, in which the U.S. agreed to unfreeze Iranian assets, were the hostages released, January 20. Citizens of Troy demonstrated their support of the 52 captive Americans with the flying of 12 American flags over the courthouse lawn. The flags, donated by veterans’ widows, were unfurled December, 1979, and retired upon the hostages’ release. 4 An attempted assassination, wounding President Reagan on his 70th day in office, March 30, scared and shocked the nation. The wounded President was rushed to the hospital to have a bullet removed. The bullet had entered his chest under his left arm and was deflected into the lower left lung. President Reagan kept his sense of humor throughout the “incident” and his recovery. It was reported that as he entered the operating room, Mr Reagan quipped to the surgeons, “Please tell me you’re Republicans.” Pope John Paul II was also hit by gunfire in an attempted assassination, May 13. The Pope, wounded by two of the bullets fired, was not seriously injured. A touch of excitement began April 10, as the space shuttle, actually a “space truck,” introduced a new era in space, “revolutionizing the way America operates in space.” The 54' 2 hour flight of the “Columbia,” opened up the possibilities of future colonies, orbiting factories, and flights to other planets. THS students showed a love for fun, but also had a serious side. A survey revealed a majority of the students thought inflation was the nation’s number one problem. Many students were concerned with the possibility of war. One student felt the United State’s greatest downfall, was the people who fail to support the country and what it stands for. Students gave President Reagan the “Okay,” but felt he will do better and accomplish more, as he becomes more experienced. Although the cost of living was high, students enjoyed many outings. Nearly half the students surveyed managed to finance their entertainment with part-time employment. “Stir Crazy” and “Any Which Way You Can” were popular movies with the teenage crowd. Favorite television shows were “Benny Hill,” “Mash,” “Dukes of Hazard,” and “Facts of Life.” Music played an important role in the lives of teenagers. All-time favorites for the year were “Keep on Loving You” and “Take It on the Run,” both by REO Speedwagon, and “Cow Patti.” Top Left: Charley’s Feed and Grain Company was a new attraction for hungry diners.

All the memories are neatly tucked inside their hearts to be shared someday in the future. The class of 1981 selected their colors, flower, and motto for eighth grade graduation, which still remain true in their final year at THS. For their colors the seniors chose the soft hues of blue and pink. The yellow rose was designated as the class flower. Their motto reveals the true feelings of success, “Quitters never win, and winners never quit!” The senior trip was scheduled for the weekend of May 8. The seniors then traveled to Dallas, Texas, where they visited the John F. Kennedy Museum, a rodeo, and Six Flags over Texas.

PASS WITH I CARE WSbr' ¥l Zractitions Continue The juniors made prom possible by be- ing in charge of the concession stand with the help of their supervisors, Mr. Art Buhl and Mr. Fred Folsche.

The THS food force served an average of 230 students and faculty each day. Lunches cost $.65 per meal, which consisted of a choice between a salad, or main dish, a vegetable, roll, and dessert. Each lunch period lasted a half hour which gave everyone time to relax before tackling the remaining portion of the day. Top Right: Gail Clary punches tickets of those students eagerly awaiting lunch. Middle Right: Head cook Ella Koehler prepares the lunch counter.

Works ‘9 to 5’ “9 to 5” was theme of the THS style show, April 28. It was combined with open house, and many pieces of furniture were displayed by the industrial arts classes, under the direction of Mr. Fred Folsche.

Bob, a senior, has lived in Troy all of his high school years. The class he enjoyed the most in his four years was industrial arts. His favorite teacher was Mr. Rockey. When asked what he thought of THS as a whole, Bobby answered, “Well, there have been some pretty rough times, but as a whole, I really liked it.” Some of Bob’s favorite pastimes were listening to the radio or watching television.

The main purpose of junior varsity football is to give the underclassmen a chance to experience the excitement of playing for the high school team. It also prepares the players for the varsity team.

Volleyball became a sport largely due to the persistence and determination of the Trojan girls. Even though this was Troy’s first year, the girls still won 3 games. Head Coach Marla Olson and Assistant Coach Larry Sandy used this year as a learning season. “I think they really learned a great deal. They improved each game. I’m proud of the way the girls played,” said Olson. “Since this year’s team didn’t have any seniors, maybe next year will be a better one for the young Trojans.” Olson is hoping volleyball will become a league sport next year. It would make much less traveling and keep the Trojans from playing the same teams.

Instead of the formal banquets of the past, the lettermen decided to have an outdoor barbeque of hamburgers and various other foods. The informal atmosphere, accompanied by beautiful weather, made the cookout at the fairgrounds a complete success. Since there was no speaker at the banquet, the awards were given directly after the supper. After all the athletes receiving letters were recognized, three special awards were given. Tim Franken was the recipient of the “Tom Keller Award.” Also, Greg Dannevik was announced as the “Outstanding Senior Athlete,” while Laura Herpich had the prestige of winning the school’s highest athletic honor, the “Bill Foster Award.” Top: Coach Kelley. Coach Foster, and Coach Davis secretly trade recipes, as they supervise the hamburgers. Middle: Several girl athletes await their awards. Lower Left: Everyone enjoyed the informal atmosphere.
