Student Life HO 4 Cnanefce in this 6-page section of student life we’ll take a look at the fads of the school year, and the changes that took place. The quiz bowl team was an addition to THS’s extra-curricular activities. About 40 students participated in taking the exams to make the team. Only four individuals made the team, with two alternates. Shown in the photo above are the students who repre- sented Troy at the quiz bowls. Pictured with the WIBW station manager are Carrie Chase, Julia Simpson, Pam Oyerly, Ken Thar- man (alternate), and Paul Gronniger. Julie Goss, who was the other alternate, is not pictured. Their instructor was Mr. Bruce Reynolds. Other changes that occurred at THS are discussed in the sections with which they are related in this yearbook. 4 Student Life

World events summarized As far as world affairs goes, the 1983-84 school year was full of excitement. ‘Murder in the Air’ is what they called it when the Soviets shot down the South Korean jumbo jetliner en route from Anchorage to Seoul. Flight 007, which boarded 73 Kore- ans, at least 39 Americans, 28 Japanese, and smaller groups from at least nine other countries, was shot down by a fighter pilot. President Reagan sent troops to Lebanon as a peace- keeping force. He also sent troops to Grenada to rescue the trapped medical students. Perhaps the biggest international tragedy that the U.S. experienced was the bombing in Beirut where 289 Ameri- cans were killed. Looking at the U.S. nationally, who could forget the show- ing of “The Day After”? This movie let the public see the outcome if a nuclear attack happened. It caused much controversy all over the nation and in the schools. The most interesting thing in politics was the Democratic presidential race between Sen. Gary Hart, Walter Mon- dale, and Rev. Jesse Jackson. The big craze of the year was the Cabbage Patch Doll. With these cute little dolls came adoption papers with names on them. No two names of the three million dolls were the same. The price of this doll varied from $30 to $150, but one doll sold for $1,000. The XIV Winter Olympics Games were held in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. The school year ended with several countries pulling out of the summer Olympics that were held in Los Angeles. These were just some of the events that happened in the world and in the U.S. All has happened and nothing can be changed. Summary 3
