TROJAN 86 TROY HIGH SCHOOL Troy, Kansas 66087 Volume 74 Published by Publications Class What IFO (identified flying object) zipped through the atmosphere this year, leav- ing behind a tail as well as the memory of its sight? That was Halley's Comet which comes every 76 years, and usually only once in a lifetime do people see it. High school is a once in a lifetime deal, too, and a high school student goes through four stages. The first stage is as a freshman. At this point of life, the students busy themselves by looking for their next class or by getting out of trash cans. The second stage puts them one rung higher, the sophomore year. Biology takes its stand here — time to collect plants and snails, and grow that yeast. Stage number three, the junior year, becomes a little more serious. Career thoughts enter minds of many students. , The last stage, the senior year, finally rolls around, and students tend to become even busier. Magazines are sold, senior pictures and the ACT are taken, as well as a trip, and finally — gradu- ation. This is the stage of serious future plan- ning. Through high school, many activities are offered which leave behind memories, both good and bad. Students root, root, root for the home team at ballgames, compete at speech and music contests, participate in the all-school play, and bomb or pass tests. All this occurs in the life of a high school stu- dent, the good and bad, and like the comet, it comes only once. Above: Michael Jasper, J.G. Koehler, Rob Sigrist, Darryl Huss, Steve Smith, and Darren Huss discuss lunch hour activities. Right: Miss Fitch takes a break from her white-washing duties to go for a spin on John Klaus' Kawasaki. 2 • Table Of Contents Mr. Gerner proposed many new ideas for the staff and students at THS.

Table Of Contents • 3 n the existence of any country, within a year, both good and bad events occur and leave memories, scarred or happy, and the year of 1985 was no different. Events of 1985-86 could have been put into the following categories: natural disasters, deaths, sports events, and those with happy endings. September 19-20, twin earthquakes jolted and de- stroyed Mexico City, and killed more than 7,000 people. Bangladesh was the scene. May 24-25, when a cyclone and tidal wave swept over this coastal town and killed 10,000-40,000 people. No- vember 13, Nevado del Ruez, a volcano in Co- lombia, erupted and caused mudslides that took over 25,000 lives. More people died in 1985 in plane crashes than any other year in history. August 2, a Delta Air Lines jumbo jet crashed while trying to land in a thunderstorm at the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport; 137 died. Ten days later, 520 people were killed when a Japan Air Lines jumbo jet crashed into Mount Osutaka, Japan. The most shocking event of the year was that of the space shuttle Challenger's explosion, Tues- day, January 28, 1986. This tragedy at Cape Ca- naveral, Florida, was the first in-flight disaster in 56 manned space missions, and claimed the lives of six astronauts and one teacher, Sharon Christa McAuliffe; she would have been the first teacher in space. The astronauts killed were Michael Smith, Francis Scobee, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka, Gregory Jarvis, and Judith Resnick. Another disaster was that of the melt down of a Russian nuclear plant at Chernobyl. The Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamil- ton), Rock Hudson, and Ricky Nelson, were all famous people who died. Hudson died of Aids and Nelson died in a plane crash. All of the aforementioned were disasters, and the following are good and happy events, the best memories to have. The world series was a Show-me-state series. The St. Louis Cardinals beat the Kansas City Royals in the first two games, 3-1 and 4-2. The Royals won the third game, 6-1, behind Bret Sa- berhagen's pitching. The Cardinals took the fourth game, 3-0, but the Royals ended the series victoriously in the last three games with scores 6- 1, 2-1, and 11-0. September 11, Pete Rose lined a single to left- center field for his 4192nd career hit, and broke Ty Cobb's record of 4191. In the football scene, the Chicago Bears won 15 of their 16 regular season games, and January 26, in Super Bowl XX in New Orleans, the Bears defeated the New England Patriots, 46-10. The biggest famine relief effort was July 13, with the Live Aid concert. Live performances in Phila- delphia and London were broadcast to about 15 billion people; this took in more than $50 million in pledges. Champaigne, Illinois, was the setting for the Farm Aid Concert, held to raise money for strug- gling farmers, in September, 1985. Willie Nelson was the emcee. Also performing were Merle Hag- gard, Hoyt Axton, and John Schneider. The ''greatest show on Earth was when Halley's Comet made its 30th recorded appearance. The orbit of Halley's Comet brought it by Earth in November, 1985; it rounded the sun, February, 1986, and passed Earth again in April, 1986, re- turning to the solar system to await another 76 years. Those were some of the world events, and yes, they are once-in-a-lifetime. Even though there will be more disasters, deaths, world series, su- perbowls, and more good things, these are all unique. No year can possibly be the same twice. Opposite page: In memory of the space shuttle Challenger and its crew of seven, the nation flew its flags at half mast for seven days.

Students' lives weren't always conducted away from school, but much of their time was spent at school. If they were sports nuts, they had to practice. These practices began and ended when school did. Other practices that took place were for dra- ma and music. Practice makes perfect, and students found that to be true when they received a I rating at a music contest, or experienced the applause to a well- done play, not to mention the ecstatic feeling encountered after a perfect spike or a terrific touchdown. Work was just half of the students' lives. The other half was spent bumming around. Stu- dents dated, caught some movies, cruised Main Street or rode right on over to St. Joe. Time was also spent sitting in front of the tube, jamming to some music, shopping, tanning, maybe doing a little bowling, working at jobs, and doing many, many other things. The comet's orbit takes it from beyond Neptune to inside the orbit of Venus. As it reaches the sun, its nucleus vaporizes and forms a long tail. Summer a busy time for THS students Take a lot of sun, a thunderstorm once in a while, and a lot of pop-eyed grasshoppers, and what do you get? Summer! For a lot of people, summer was take me out to the ballgame. Students of Troy High School spent time at the ball park either being a specta- tor or participating. There were slow pitch, fast pitch, and K-ball games going on all summer. Some even drove to Kansas City to watch the Royals. Swimming was popular, too. Even though the summer of 1985 was cooler than summers before, people still got hot enough to take a cool dip in the pool or, if preferred, lie out and soak up some rays. And then there was weight training — days of pumping iron for the oncoming sport's year. It was a time for building up those biceps, firming the quadraceps, and then, for a while, aching after doing it. Summer was the season for vacationing with Above: Tim Hegarty works out on the squat lift during the off season. Right: J.G. Koehler shows determination as he strives for a 70-lb. lift. 8 • Student Life families, as many students did. Camps were a kind of vacation, even though maybe they weren't as enjoyable. Students attended camps, such as FFA, music, volleyball, cheerleading, Kayette, and journalism. These were camps to get new ideas for the coming year. Doing the fun stuff was easy but getting mon- ey was a different story. THS students looked for jobs and worked at places such as the store, the local cafe, on the farm, helping mom and dad at home, putting up hay, working for the city, or good old babysitting. Then summer came to an end and it was time to start looking for a career or time to hit the books and start school again. And here is how the school year went ... Work was also done during the summer. Money had to be earned so the new car and new clothes could be bought, or so one could take in a movie or concert. Below: By working for Kostman Construction this summer, Steve Smith was able to buy a new car. Left: Bryan Adkins demonstrates the military press, which was one of the many stations at weight lifting this summer. ■ 31 Above: Mr. Rick Gerner, new THS principal, orga- nized a community clean-up day to spruce up the appearance around the high school. Student Life • 9 Students full of life When will there be a break? was a question heard arond school after it had started, and stu- dents had finally reached their halfway mark. A great prescription for the busied, hurried life of the students came at Christmas vacation. They threw school out of their minds, kicked back and relaxed, spent time with families, and vacationed. During the Christmas period at Troy High, much excitement had been experienced whether it was because of the two-week break that came or because of the activity that filled the halls. Student council held a hall-decorating contest between the seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen. Each class was designated a hall and they decorated it in Christmas array. Seniors won firstprize, which was $30. Freshmen claimed sec- ond prize, $20, followed by the juniors, $15, and sophomores $10. Stuco also held the annual Christmas party. The break then ended, and it was back to the busied routines of school. Basketball and speech had gotten into swing, the alumni games were played, prom finally arrived, and then, for some, graduation.

Fads and new styles were sometimes shortlived; they were here today, and gone tomorrow. One style that was big, was that of flowered pants, flowered jackets, flowered anything! Flow- ered prints in blue denim or bright colors roamed the halls. A new addition to the jean scene was stirrup pants, which were just that, pants with a stirrup at the bottom. Long shirts were very popular, as were shirts that were short in the front and longer in the back. Going Hawaiian was also in. Jammers, also known as Hawaiian shorts, were also common. Along with the shorts, Hawaiian shirts were worn. Shaker-knit sweaters worn over a little colored T-shirt were seen quite often, also. Hair styles were about the same, such as those with the ears cut out, but also making an appear- ance was the style of not much hair on the head. As prom rolled round, tanning beds became ex- tremely popular. All of those fads revealed the personalities of people and gave the school color (literally) and no doubt they will keep changing, but for the year of 1986, they were once in a lifetime.

Fads Cherish the moments Spirit Week for this year was buzzing with ex- citement! Many people dressed up in the re- quired attire for the day. Monday was for all the beach bums; Tuesday was opposite sex day; Wednesday was baby day; Thursday was for nerds; and Friday was traditional blue and white day. To make this day special, some of the stu- dents showed extra school spirit by bringing a handkerchief saying, “We're behind the Tro- jans, and pinning it on their backs. Mike Wiedmer was the recipient of the coveted award, Mr. Legs. He was given a rose and a kiss from Traci Marriott. At the Homecoming ceremony, October 4, the court consisted of Mary Etherton, Pam Guy, Jen- nifer Scholz, Paula Smith, and Karen Thomas. Karen Thomas was crowned the new Homecom- ing Queen. She was awarded a sash, a crown, eight roses, and a kiss from head escort, Tim Hegarty. The other candidates received a rose and a kiss from their escorts, Bryan Adkins, Brian Klaus, John Klaus and Mike Wiedmer. The crown and gift bearers for the ceremony were Sarah Geiger, Corey Smith, Jackie Nel- thorpe, and Cory Kostman. A dance followed the game and lasted till 12:30. The Homecoming theme for the year was “Cher- ish the Moments. Above: Front row: Mary Etherton, Jennifer Scholz, Karen Thomas, Paula Smith, Pam Guy.

A 'match' is made THE MATCHMAKER, written by Thorton Wilder, was the all-school play presented at a November 14 matinee and evening and matinee performances, November 15. There was also a party after the evening performance, for the cast and crew members, at Mr. and Mrs. Rockey's home. The play centers around an old Yonkers mer- chant, Horace Vandergelder, who is very rich and decides to take a wife. Not having any luck at finding one, he hires a woman, a matchmaker, to find a wife for him. As every year, the cast, crew members, and direc- tor put in long, hard hours, but this year was especially difficult because of conflicts in sched- ules. Expressing her feelings, Julie Goss stated, I feel this was one of the better plays I've seen since I've been in high school. Becky Clary added, It was a lot of fun to improvise my character's actions. Crew Front Row: K. Needham, P. Clary, M. Jasper, B. Clary, Jonnette Smith, S. Theis, K. Roper, Michele Rooney, T.

Past queens came to be recognized and reunited. They began in 1963 with Carol Smith and went all the way through to 1985 with Diana Shelton. Each queen that attended was presented a corsage by the student council Vice-President Tim Hegarty. The Queen of Courts ceremony was held at the half of the boys' varsity game. Paula Smith was pronounced the new Queen of Courts. Bryan Adkins was the head escort. Paula received a crown, a sash, eight roses, and a kiss from Bryan and was then escorted to her seat. Other candidates and their escorts were Mary Etherton and Mike Wiedmer; Jackie Herpich and Mike Goss; Jenny Herpich and Brian Klaus; and Jennifer Scholz and Robert Sigrist. Each candi- date received a single red rose and a kiss from her escort. The crown and gift bearers were Kyle McCon- naughey, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kevin McCon- naughey; Jaylon Ashburn, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Kelley; Amy Keller, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Keller; and Jamie Wykert, daughter of Mr. Jim Wykert and Sharon Sandy. The music for the dance after the game was pro- vided by JTN, a live band that had played to a sold-out audience at the Uptown theater in Kan- sas City the previous month.

The team sported an 18-4 record as they marched into Lee Arena on the campus of Washburn Universi- ty- The Trojans had worked hard all year long and had ended the season with three exciting victo- ries in Sub-State. First, they whipped McLouth, and then JCN in the semifinals, and, finally, they overpowered Linwood in the championship game to advance to State. Being seeded eighth in the tournament, the Tro- jans faced the top seeded team, Berean Academy in the first round. The Trojans came out on top by a score of 45-36 to move into the semifinals. Here, the Trojans squared off against the Owls of Garden Plains. Although the game remained fairly close until the fourth quarter, poor shoot- ing and lack of concentration hurt the Trojans severely. Garden Plains won 68-41. In the consolation game Saturday, the Trojans met the Centralia Panthers. The Trojans didn't fair too well with the Panthers either. The score ended in Centralia's favor, 78-69, after a hard- fought contest. Robert Sigrist was the fourth leading scorer in the tournament, and Bryan Adkins finished fifth. Another highlight of the tournament came when Troy won the sportsmanship award. This was a great achievement that the cheerleaders, pep club, fans, and players worked hard to win. Once again a year of action-packed basketball with many great moments was completed. The Trojans ended the season with a 19-6 record. Although basketball tradition was still young in Troy, it was getting richer and richer with each passing year.

One-act earns I A total of 16 entries and the one-act play quali- fied for the state festival held at Johnson County Community College. Sixteen were the most en- tries any school could have. Eight I7s were earned. The Fabulous Fable Factory 7 the one-act play, was performed for several clubs and at the grade school. The play centered on a young girl, Molly, who stumbled upon a fable factory. The workers in the factory wanted Molly to stay and fill in for the broken part of the machine — the Moral Maker, but Molly decided she must return home. Kim Roper, Molly, received best actress at league tournament, and Julie Goss, Cassie, received best supporting actress. Michele Rooney received three I7s at state. This was the first time this was possible due to a new rule. 7I thought this was the best season ever, and hopefully next year will be even better!77 Michele commented.

Ruffles on dresses, and color-coordinating cumberbuns for tuxedos were both popular. Magic and romance. These two words perfectly described the once in a lifetime event of prom. Juniors, seniors, and their guests, enjoyed a meal of sirloin steak and a baked potato at the Ramada Inn in St. Joseph. After the meal, Mrs. Kay Schultz, fourth grade teacher of many of the ju- niors and seniors, gave a short speech. Then the party goers danced into the night with music provided by The Answer. Prom was over in a matter of hours, but the preparation for it took months. The juniors had reserved the banquet room and band in the first month of school, and everyone breathed easily for a while. But in a few months, the panic was on again. Finding a dress, ordering a tuxedo, and saving enough money for the big night were all worries for the juniors and seniors. Everything may not have been perfect. Tuxedos didn't fit, the banquet room was a bit too warm, and the hotel guests in the pool were disruptive with their beach balls, but the splendor of this once-in-a-lifetime event outshone these mis- haps, and remained forever. Games keep tradition John Klaus was chosen Mr. Irresistible during the senior faculty games, April 11. Head escort, Karen Thomas, presented John with a kiss and medallion. Other candidates were Brian Klaus, Mike Wiedmer, Bryan Adkins, and Bobby Franken. The escorts were Paula Smith, Pam Guy, Jennifer Scholz, and Mary Etherton. Nominees for Mr. Irresistible and the escorts were selected by the Kayettes. The final decision was then made by the student body. The seniors once again kept tradition by win- ning both games, the girls with a score of 31-23, the boys with 47-45.

Kayettes help needy The Kayettes have sponsored many activities, helped the needy, and made people happy. For all their effort, they have earned the 1000-point award for over 20 years. The needy have benefitted through the Kayettes by receiving non-perishable food around the holiday season. Also, the Kayettes helped cancer victims with the selling of daffodils at Easter. The proceeds of this went to the Cancer Society. Old folks appreciated the Kayettes coming to the rest home and playing bingo. They enjoyed the laughter and friendliness of the younger genera- tion. The slumber party was held for initiation of the freshmen. Lots of memories were made. Some memories brought the girls closer. The main group-sponsored event was the monthly faculty appreciation. To start the year, the teachers were given Surival Kits. From then on, Kayettes gave them ice cream, cake, cookies, and for Christmas, stained glass ornaments. These gave faculty an extra boost for the coming months. Top: At freshman initiation, the freshmen had to push a penny across the floor with their noses.

Denise represented the Northeast District at the NICE Conference in Knoxville, Tennessee. Michele won a trip to attend a conference at Washington D.C. The chapter built playground equipment for the grade school. They received money from the PTO and the state to pay for materials. The chapter also bought a computer system with funds from the state which were matched by the school board.

A pep club! Cheering the team on is just one of the many important jobs the pep club did throughout the year. Others included decorating for the Home- coming and Queen of Courts dances and fixing up special surprises to put in the team members' lockers. The cheerleaders also prepared an early-morning breakfast for the cross country team when they qualified for the state meet. It's not always easy to get to every game so Ms. Fitch came up with a new system. She divided the club into two groups — A and B. Group A was responsible for going to the Tuesday game and Group B the Friday game. Then the next week the groups switched nights. Front row: Julie Koehler, Sheena Smith, Kim Roper.

The cheerleaders performed a skit at every pep rally. A favorite of the cheerleaders was the Tro- jan Shuffle sung to the same tune as the popular Chicago Bear's Super Bowl Shuffle. Pep club didn't just start and end when school did. The cheerleaders went to summer camp to learn new cheers, chants, and routines. They also sold note pads to earn new uniforms. The cheerleaders were so proud of their dance routine to Shout that Ms. Fitch made arrange- ments for them to perform it at halftime of a KU junior varsity game and a Washburn University game. Having Ms. Fitch as a sponsor made pep club really exciting and a lot of fun, said Cindy Buch. Being in pep club may have been lots of fun, but having fun always has its consequences. A hoarse throat was one of the consequences of being in pep club. Student Life • 35 Seniors bid farewell Graduation brings about a time at which seniors can relax and enjoy themselves, but it also gives them a chance to look back upon the thirteen years they spent together, to reflect upon memo- ries both good and bad. Baccalaureate service was Sunday, May 18, at 8 P.M. in the C.W. Oliver Gymnasium. Pastor Glora Burns gave the address. Seniors Mary Eth- erton, Jenny Herpich, Jennifer Scholz, Paula Smith, and Karen Thomas sang “The Hands of Time (Brian's Song). Graduation exercises were held the next Tuesday, May 20. The band performed A Mighty Fortress Is Our God. Next, Jenny Herpich gave the salu- tatory oration, and Pam Guy gave the valedictory address. The chorus then performed “Friends, followed by the commencement address given by William Graves, Assistant Secretary of State of Kansas. The diplomas were presented and the evening was completed. Hopefully high school graduation was a good time for everyone, yet another memory that comes once in a lifetime.

Personalities make up the character of indivi- duals. Just as no two fingerprints are alike, no two people are the same either, and that is what makes one special. First look at the staff. If it weren't for these people, the janitors, cooks, and bus drivers, the school could be really dirty and students would be very hungry. And then there are the teachers. If it weren't for them, who would give homework and tests? Well, teachers don't always do this dirty work, they also try to answer questions and help out, and of course .. . teach. The administrators are people of the school, too. A new addition to the school this year was Prin- cipal Rick Gerner with the philosophy of I be- lieve that I am people-oriented. I try to involve people in the decision-making process and I be- lieve in education, and that students are the num- ber-one priority, and that teachers, administra- tors, and support staff are here primarily to serve that priority. Students are the biggest part of the school, with their different interests and personalities. They stick together and give praise when it is deserved and just help each other out. Being with the people of Troy High School only comes once in a lifetime because each year, new people are added and each year, people leave. I The mystery guest, Halley's Comet, comes every 76 years.

The board approved the purchase of new football helmets. They also approved the 'Titness-for-life program, which allowed the adults of the community to work out with the school facilties. Principal Rick Gerner, Secretary Gail Clary, and Counselor Severt Anderson collabor- ated to create a booster pamphlet. 40 Principal Rick Gerncr introduced a new three-step tough-love policy, with the students' and faculty's cooperation. Principal arrives bringing changes With a new school year at Troy High also came some changes. One of the biggest changes was the new principal, Mr. Richard Gerner. Mr. Gerner was born in St. Louis, Missouri, and attended high school at Matre Dei Parochial High School. After high school, he attended col- lege at Kansas Wesleyan in Salina, Kansas. While there, he majored in physical and elemen- tary education. After college, he taught at many different schools. They were Glasco, Quinter, Marysville, and Fort Scott. While at these schools, he taught elementary education, physical education, and health. He also said that being a teacher was hard work, and that it took a person who really loved people, and a person who was very dedicated. Superintendent Kenneth Pharr and District Clerk Nell Rene Larzelere, shared the office. Mr. Pharr's responsibilities included meeting with the league superintendents. For the 1986-87 school year; they denied Eudora acceptance into the league. They also decided to play only one junior varsity game a night. The girls and boys would alternate nights. Mrs. Larzelere, secretary to the superintendent, was also sec- retary to the school board. He then decided that he wanted to become a principal so he went back to Kansas State to get his masters degree as a principal. Mr. Gerner made many changes at THS, such as the reorga- nization of the athletic department, and better organization of the maintenance department. He spent a lot of time with this and would have liked to spend more time with the students and staff. He said that he felt that there were advantages and disadvantages to being principal. He said that he liked the job because he handled author- ity very easily and the money was better, but he wasn't as close to the kids as he would have liked to have been, as when he was a teacher. People • 41 Teachers reveal their favorite pasttimes The experience of teaching at Troy High as part of a given faculty comes once in a lifetime. It was through the efforts of the teachers that the students received a good basic education. The students were aware of this, but they often forgot that the teachers' lives continued after leaving the school. A variety of hobbies were enjoyed by the faculty. For instance, Mrs. Rockey, one of the two Eng- lish teachers, enjoyed music, reading, and crafts. Mrs. Babetta Israel, also an English teacher, liked reading, antiques, plants and gardening. Mr. Lyle Rockey, Jr.'s hobbies included basket- ball and reading. Mr. Dale Whiteside, business teacher, spent his free time farming and constructing model rail- roads. Mr. Bruce Reynolds, also a business and social science teacher, collected old movies and enjoyed gardening. The three vocational teachers also had various hobbies. Mrs. Anna Goss enjoyed cooking and sewing. Mr. Jim Hundley spent his time farm- ing. When skiing, boating, or flying airplanes, one might have encountered Mr. Fred Folsche enjoying his hobbies. The music instructors both extended their inter- ests to sports. Mr. Mike Gerhardt, band, pre- ferred water sports, such as swimming and sail- ing. Mr. Scott Miller, chorus director, liked bas- ketball and tennis. Mr. Miller also played guitar. Coaches Kevin Kelley and Denise Davidson shared a true love of sports, and Coach Kelley collected coins. Math teacher, Ms. Debbie Fitch, liked photogra- phy and caring for her pets. Mrs. Nancy Clisbee, art teacher, enjoyed needle work. Librarian, Ms. Denise Roebkes, spent her free time gardening, fishing, and reading. Mr. Bill Foster, science teacher, enjoyed running, canoeing, fishing, hunting, and slowpitch soft- ball.

People • 43 Co-op provides help 44 • People Six extra teachers provided extended learning for THS students through the Doniphan County Educational Co-op. Betty Beaver provided aid for students with learning disabilities. Pat Blocker helped special students find career opportunities. Anne Elliot directed the physical therapy. Bob Anderson in- structed the gifted students in educational ad- vancement. One new class taught at THS was the PSA. The letters PSA stand for Personal and Social Ad- vancement. The class was instructed by Ben Hunter with the help of paraprofessional Carol Smith. It taught skills in personal and social development, along with the other academic areas. The goal of the class was to help each student in the class return to the main stream of education. Top left: Anne Elliot. Top center: Pat Blocker. Top right: Betty Beaver.

He was born February 25, 1932, in Wathena and had lived most of his life in that area. He left as survivors his wife, Ruth, and two sons, Glen and Craig, all of Troy. Charlie had served in the Marine Corps Reserve, Kansas City, MO, and as Korean War Veteran. He co-owned and operated an electrical shop in Troy between 1964 and 1980. He was presently serving as treasurer of the Board of Trustees at the United Methodist Church. Charlie was popular with the students at THS, where he had been maintenance and bus supervi- sor since 1980. All missed him. Mr. Rockey retires Retirement is a once in a lifetime event for most people, and one of THS's custodians did just that. Mr. Lyle Rockey, Sr., retired from his custodial position in December. A retirement party was given for him by the faculty and staff. As a gift, he was presented a lamp to aid him in reading, his favorite pasttime. The administration hired Mr. Rick Clary to fill the position left by Rockey's retirement. Work programs for all custodians were altered with the changes in the staff. Mr. Clary worked from 2-11 P.M. and did a little bit of everything. Kay Clark only cleaned from the glass doors, which were installed between the old building and the new gym, and south. Mrs. Valeta Calla- han swept one floor per day. The price for regular lunches rose to 95 cents. Super lunches were also offered. These included more food than regular lunches and cost $1.20. Dennis McKittrick was hired as head bus driver early in the year. The school also purchased a new bus in January.

Frosh like it 'motley' This year the freshmen had many activities but one of the biggest was in the selling of their Tom Watt merchandise, which was sold for a class fund-raiser. There were many interests, as were found in a survey that was taken. The freshmen were very busy this year, and many of them went out for chorus; but most of them decided that they liked sports better. In the movies, there were many different ones that were liked, such as The Breakfast Club and Footloose, but the two that dominated over all were Back to the Futue and Beverly Hills Cop. There were many different actors liked, but the ones that ran a close race for favorites were Eddie Murphy and Michael J. Fox, but Mi- chael J. Fox pulled out on top. When it came to their favorite singer or group they liked many different ones, such as Survi- vor and Motley Crue, but their favorite was Air Supply. As for their favorite song Oh Sheila had some fans, but Cherish was their favorite.

By a survey it was found that most of the sopho- mores were involved in chorus and sports. There were quite a few in speech as well. Many different cars, such as Mazda RX-7, and convertibles, were popular with this class, but the one that topped them all was the Trans Am. ACDC had a few fans, but Kool The Gang was the most popular song group. Some of the songs that were popular were Lovin' Every Minute of It, and We Built This City, but the dominat- ing song was Cherish. It was a tie for second place with the movies. They were Rambo, and Beverly Hills Cop, but the one that ruled by a big majority was Back to the Future. A few people liked Eddie Murphy as an actor, but Michael J. Fox was the most popular.

Theresa Wood, Michael Jasper, and Pam Clary stop to catch their breath while helping the photographer on picture day Three junior traditions were carried on, but the class of '87 decided to do things their way. They ran the concession stand, which was, as usual, sponsored by Mrs. Anna Goss. Class rings were purchased in the early fall. Some of them were ordered from Josten's, though many were pur- chased elsewhere. The prom plans were made very early in the year. Through a survey, many junior favorites were discovered. The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo's Fire had a few fans, but Back to the Future topped them all in the movie scene. When it came to the favorite actors, Tom Cruise was in the running, but Michael J. Fox was best-liked. The juniors also decided that they liked the hot climate of the Bahamas, but Hawaii was pre- ferred over that. There were many different styles of clothes that were popular, but the ones that ran a close race for favorite were Lee and Levis. The juniors enjoyed many different TV shows such as Knot's Landing and Dynasty, but their favorite was The Cosbv Show. Friendliness in a date was important to them. Lovin' every minute The seniors had many goals, and one of them was their magazine sales. Each one of the seniors had to sell 15 magazines or more to help pay for their senior trip. The seniors had many different ideas as was found in a survey that was taken. When it came to the movie scene, Rambo and Back to the Future were in the running for favorites, but Rambo pulled out on top. When it came to actors, the legendary John Wayne had some fans but the majority of them liked Slyvester Stallone. There were many different songs that were liked such as, Money for Nothing, and Back in Black, but the one that was above all of them was Lovin' Every Minute of It. As favorite singers went, there were some from both country and rock such as Hank Williams Jr., but the best- liked singing group was ACDC. Many of the seniors liked different radio stations like 106.5 KCI, but their favorite was KY-102. 0( suc As for colleges, there were many different favor- ites such as K-State, and KU, but the majority wanted to go to Oxford.

Seniors look at past, then turn to the future The senior year is a time of remembering the past and looking to the future. There is always some nervousness about what lies ahead, and also sad- ness at leaving the only life one has known, 12 or 13 years of school. As the class of '86 met the daily requirements of government, English, and other classes, they also looked back at some of the things that had hap- pened in the years they had shared. For Karen Thomas, being Homecoming Queen was special. She also recalled, ... how 1 was the third best spiker and the shortest person on the volley- ball team. Danny Owens will always remember crashing into the water tower. Bobby Franken looked back on how I used to do everything wrong in industrial arts. Chris Griffin will never forget meeting her hus- band, Bill. He asked me out and I told him I wouldn't go out with him because I didn't even know his name. One thing I'll never forget, said Tim Nuzum, is the time 1 was in such a hurry to get to school that I took out a telephone pole, totaled my car, and broke my leg along the way. Mary Etherton recalled how I used to get out of Mr. Rockey's fifth-hour class to go into the library to see Annette Whetstine, who was library aide, and Ms. Roebkes would always kick me out. Even while they recalled special memories, the sen- iors were also preparing and planning for the fu- ture. Brian Hulbert, Pat Bembrick, and Jim Koehler all planned on getting jobs. Brian Hulbert planned to work in construction, and Jim Koehler as a butcher. The majority of the class planned to go on to col- lege. Pam Guy was considering Northwest Missouri State. Paula Smith planned to go to Highland and then on to K-State, where she hoped to major in fashion merchandising. Jackie Herpich also planned to go to college, but was uncertain as to which one. I'll probably become a veterinarian specializing in horses, she said. Brian Klaus planned to go to Springfield. Chris Griffin and Karen Thomas both had eyes set on cosmetology school.

Karen Thomas said she would go to cosmetology school after I go to Springfield. Mary Etherton wanted to go to beauty school and then open her own shop.

Foreign cookery was one of the many units taught in the family living class by Mrs. Anna Goss. That's a very familiar phrase heard around Troy High School when it comes to the subject academics. People are always saying that homework makes you tough. It makes you strong. Well, this doesn't mean your biceps and triceps start to bulge, it means your cranium (brain) begins to bulge with knowledge, and knowledge is needed if you are to make it in the world, because ''knowledge is power. J 4 Subjects are offered to students to prepare them for their years beyond those behind the walls of high school. It might seem like a waste of time to be taking all those algebra, literature, or science classes, but the skills learned now will be carried on and used later in life, and students only have one time to learn them . . . and that's in high school.

Honor Society helps students in need In other years, the Honor Society of Troy High had been just strictly an honorary organiza- tion, never a group that participated in school service. For the first time since 1928, the Honor Society had taken that first step — tutoring, al- though this privilege was given only to freshman and sophomore students. Members of the organization were Bobby Fran- ken, president; Jenny Herpich, Jennifer Scholz, and Pam Guy. Two key articles represented the Honor Society organization. They were the membership scroll and the plaque bearing the letters CSLS. Those students involved in the Honor Society must re- present these letters. C stands for character, S stands for scholarship, L stands for leader- ship, and S stands for service, all of which an Honor Society member must have. The Honor Society members were (standing) Jenny Herpich and Bobby Franken, president; (sitting) Mr. Fred Folsche, sponsor; Pam Guy and Jennifer Scholz. 60 • Academics Student council busy The Troy High Student Council was very busy, and tried many new things. During the month of October, they held a Hal- loween costume contest. Students had an oppor- tunity to dress up and were judged. Stuco pro- vided the prizes. Stuco, as usual, sponsored the Homecoming and Queen of Courts dance. They tried something new with this event. They had a reunion for all the Troy High School Queens of Court dating back as far as the records allowed — 1963. The reunion took place January 31 during the half- time of the boys' varsity game with the Wathena Wildcats. In addition to buying the publication class a new camera, the thrill of Christmas brought to the minds of Stuco members, another contest idea and a party. They sponsored a hall-decorating contest, which gave the freshman through senior classes a chance to decorate a hall. The seniors won first prize, followed by the freshmen, ju- niors, and sophomores. Stuco also sponsored a Christmas party on the last day of school before Christmas break.

Academics • 61 To be a bachelor and still survive 62 • Academics When a student graduates from high school, he tends to feel a surge of independence and the first thing that happens is he leaves home — whether it be moving away and immediately starting a job or going to college. Either way, this young adult needs to learn the best and least expensive way to survive. These days women are thought of as being trained to take on the role of home maker — cooking, cleaning, and sewing, but, if the case were to be a man living on his own, how could he plan to survive without these necessary tech- niques? To help solve this problem, a new class was of- fered, bachelor living. Only six guys took this class, but they all seemed to agree on their feelings about it. Some thought it to be fun, easy, and yet an experience. Craig Grable stated, I'd recommend it. It's a good ex- perience for all guys who plan to be eligible bachelors like me! Pat Franken said, I think it's about time Troy finally got this class. It's greatly needed when guys go to college or even when you move and live by yourself. Finally one last opinion was expressed by Steve Smith, Guys learn how to do things they nor- mally wouldn't learn, but as for me — this class is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

First-hand taste of government gained Each year Mr. Reynold's American government class participates in County Government Day. The students choose a position they would like to hold and attend workshops with the actual officials who hold those jobs. The workshops are held in the court house where the students are allowed to experience first hand what their particular job holder does.

Academics • 63 Health class visited Physical education is a class taken by the future coaches and referees of tomorrow. The students in freshman and advanced PE ex- perienced the thrill of hockey, tennis, basketball, volleyball, soccer, and speedball during the year. Badmitton and raquetball were played as round- robin tournaments. Miss Davidson's health class was visited in Oc- tober by a man who brought information on drug-and-alcohol abuse. It was a four-week unit, and the pupils took several tests over the pam- phlets and films. The class was also visited in December by a per- son certified in CPR. The unit took eight school hours and the students received training in CPR for emergencies. Right: Darren Huss plays dodgeball, one of the many activi- ties in freshman PE.

In the month of October, the Vo Ag students went to the land judging contests held at Silver Lake and Marysville, and Troy High hosted the leadership schools. When asked, Mr. Folsche replied that his Indus- trial Arts students helped “mainly with school projects during the year. They made storage racks for the equipment room, put in a new ceil- ing and doorway for the weight room, improved the trophy cases, made plaque racks in the main hall, and remodeled the office.

Only one boy and seven girls took the class, but as the year progressed, it became popular with other students. The students learned dialects from other coun- tries and how to act young or old. To improve acting skills, they attended a workshop at High- land Community College to see mime Phil Jo- seph. During the Christmas season, the class made up a play. The story was based on sharing and help- ing other people. The characters were Denise Miller, Santa Claus; Angela Rohrer, Mrs. Claus; Michele Rooney, doll; Tom Martinez, soldier; Pam Guy, reindeer; Cindy Buch, Jill-in-the-box; and Mary Etherton and Paula Smith, rhyming elves. Mrs. Martha Rockey, instructor, was the narrator. In the spring, they performed Cinderella, Cin- derella. Tom Martinez was the only male in the class; he obviously got the part of the Prince. The class also assisted Ms. Roebkes by entertain- ing grade schoolers during story hour.

Pop goes the ensemble or rather, the ensem- ble goes pop. This year the select ensemble was able to try something new. In addition to per- forming new and more popular songs, the group was paired off, in a boy-girl fashion, for song- and-dance routines. The first time they performed the song-and- dance routines was during the dinner show, Oc- tober 12, and the next performance was during the BB-Q feed, May 22. Both the dinner show and feed were new events, and were successful. Just like football, basketball, or even speech, the music department participates in competition that hopefully will take them to State. Two stu- dents had the chance to compete at state level.

New course teaches skills Chemistry is a laboratory science taken by either juniors or seniors. Eleven students attended the chemathon at Mis- souri Western College, March 25. Biology is also a lab science that is concerned with the study of life. The main ideas that were covered by this course were the concepts of scientific methods and ecology. Botany Zoology is a third laboratory science. This course included a thorough study of the major phylo of the animal kingdom, along with the dissection and identification of the body structure of many animals. Art, a new course, was offered to teach basic art skills, increase awareness of good design, and provide opportuni- ties for students to practice both.

Seminars ranged in topics from photography to theme de- velopment and copy writing. The guest speaker was Edward Fouhy, executive producer of the American Almanac. The day was designed to help students improve their publications. Quill Scroll is an honorary organization for journalism students. To be chosen as a member, students had to be a junior or senior and in the upper third of the class in general scholastic standing. They also must have done superior work in some phase of journalism, such as writ- ing, editing business, or production. Two staffers were members.

Academics • 73 Academic awards assembly shifts to morning Each year a special assembly is held when aca- demic awards are presented. In 1986 that assem- bly was May 14, during the morning instead of in the evening as usual. Miss Debbie Fitch presented cheerleading and pep club awards, and the Kansas State University Math Science Award, which went to senior Pam Guy. Two societies received new members through special ceremonies. Those members inducted into National Honor Society were Theresa Wood, Pam Oyerly, Pat Franken, Denise Miller, Mi- chele Rooney, Julie Goss, Sheena Smith, J.G. Koehler, Kim Roper, Mike Goss, Cindy Buch, and Robert Sigrist. Newly elected members of Quill and Scroll, the journalism honorary, were Michele Rooney, Tim Hegarty, Cindy Buch, Robert Sigrist, Mike Goss, Michael Jasper, Julie Goss, and Jenny Herpich. Seniors receiving scholarships included Pam Guy and Jennifer Scholz, from Northwest Mis- souri State, and Jennifer Scholz, from the local teachers' association. Principal Rick Gerner presented the KSHSAA Citizenship Award, which each year is given to an outstanding senior boy and girl who exempli- fy the standards of good citizenship. This year those awards went to Jennifer Scholz and Bobby Franken. Mrs. Martha-Jean Rockey presented speech let- ters, and gave special recognition to Michele Rooney, who accumulated the most points for the year in speech, and Paula Smith, the senior graduating with the most points. Commander Melvin Owen of the local Legion Post presented their certificates and medallions to seniors Karen Thomas and Bobby Franken, while Jennifer Scholz and Tim Hegarty received honorable mention.

The only place that success comes before sweat is in the dictionary, and sweat is just what per- spired during the football, volleyball, cross coun- try, basketball, and track seasons. Bumps, sets, and spikes were all keys that un- locked the volleyball team's spirit and determi- nation, which brought them a 4-3 league record. Another early sport was cross country, and sweat and hard work charged the seven harriers into running right to State, and ended their season as eighth in the State-run. Grunting, tackling, rushing, and breakdowns were seen and heard during the football games of Troy High. Even though they had a slow start, determination and, of course, hardwork, (bone- crushing, head-knocking pride) brought a grand finale for them, leaving a 3-6 record and district runner-up. Success is failure turned inside out, and hustle, boarding strength, and alley oops, (maybe not quite alley oops) were observed by spectators, as the basketball teams battled through their sea- son, the girls improving over 100%, and the boys bettering their record, too. The boys' tournament team won Sub-State held at JCN, approached the State games at Topeka, and brought home a fourth place. The tracksters worked for success, too, whether hurdling, sprinting, pacing, or shotputting. End- ing the sport's year, as in any sport's year, brought about the anxiety of the coming year. For the seniors, though, the sport's scene had ended, unless one was furthering his athletic ca- reer. Sports aren't everything, though, and as Athletic Director Rick Gerner stated, It has al- ways been my philosophy as coach and as a per- son, that you attempt the biggest game, everyday life, as a class act!

Not only was it take me out to the ball game, but it was also take me out to the golf course. Cross country and junior varsity football were two active fall sports at Troy High. Cross Country had what is known as a banner year. The team was not even supposed to do better than sixth at regionals but the seven boys turned that idea into a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be the first 2A team Troy has sent to state competition and an 8th place there. The oldest member of the team was junior Tom Martinez, a rookie to the field who ran fifth for the team. The sophomores had the most harriers out, a total of four. Jeff Simpson was the only veteran and ran the two miles in third place. Running fourth was Robert Johnson; in sixth place was Todd Campbell, and crossing the line in seventh position was Scott Reder. The team had two freshmen that led the field of seven. Jackie Gardner, first in the pack, set a new freshman record of 10:38. Rick Clark was right behind Gardner, clocking in at second. The team was coached by two coaches: Mr. Tom Bond and Mr. Bill Foster, who both came out for morning and afternoon practices.

The season began Stepember 13, at 7:30 P.M. at Jefferson County North where the team encoun- tered a hard-fought battle to the end with the Chargers, but at game's end the Trojans had lost 6-13. The weeks to follow were about as hard and as tough with the Trojans losing to Highland, McLouth, Pleasant Ridge, Horton, and Jackson Heights. Then came the Trojan turn-around, a three-game winning streak. The offense totaled an average of 35 points by outscoring opponents Oskaloosa, Valley Falls, and Wathena by at least 17 points a game.

All of these things helped the girls achieve their 10- 14 mark overall and their 4-3 league record. The team was led by three seniors: Pam Guy, Karen Thomas, and Paula Smith. Special awards were voted on by the varsity team. Most valuable player was Julie Goss; most hustle, Sheena Smith; most improved, Sherry Karn; and Ms. Spirit was Pam Guy. Julie Goss and Sheena Smith received All-League honors. Julie Goss was voted unanimous selection. Ms. Fitch summed up the season by saying, Our team worked with more togetherness and team work than we have ever had. These girls fought hard all year long and have had many rewarding experiences.

We set them high, but maybe just not quite high enough, was what Coach Kelley stated when asked about the boys' season. The Trojans achieved many goals but came up short on others. They placed second in the High- land Tournament and third in the DVL Tourna- ment. They had hoped to win both tournaments, but losing wasn't something they made a habit of. They were DVL Co-Champs and Sub-State Champs, and placed fourth in the State Tourna- ment. At the end of the season, the varsity was 19-6, and the junior varsity was 10-3. Several Trojans received individual honors. Bry- an Adkins led the Delaware Valley League in scoring and free-throw percentage. He was also among the leaders in assists. He was named the first team All-League, and was an All-State selec- tion.

Lady cagers improve “Overall the season was very good ' commented Coach Frank Davis. “I felt that everyone grew and matured throughout the season. The Lady Trojans had three seniors to lead them. They were Karen Thomas, Jackie Herpich, and Jenny Herpich. The girls worked very hard all season long. On Parents' Night the three seniors were recognized and received roses. Our season was a definite improvement from last year, commented Jenny Herpich. The Lady Trojans ended their season with an 8- 13 record. Sherry Karn received All-League Hon- orable Mention.

The boys' team placed well in several meets, as they finished second in the Elwood Relays, the Wathena Invitational, the Doniphan County Meet, and The DVL Meet. The girls also did well, but were building with young talent. The girls placed fourth in the County Meet and fifth in the Elwood Relays. The team was coached by Head Coach Frank Davis, Mr. Lyle Rockey, Jr., Mr. Tom Bond, Mr. Don Cash, and Mr. Kevin Kelley. Several school records were broken this year. They are listed on the next page.

T-Club hosts events Troy's T-Club was very active. They sponsored an alumni football game and alumni basketball tournament. The T-Club also awarded Senior Plaques this year. Early in the year, equipment for the weight room was purchased. After the alumni football game, Mr. Johnny Howland, class of 1963, donated $500 to the T-Club. T-Club sponsor was Mr. Rick Gerner, principal. Under his direction the club's constitution was rewritten and the organization more tightly structured. Also, the group voted to present plaques to the school in honor of teams that either became DVL champions or made it to state competition. Such plaques were awarded to the cross country team, the boys' basketball team, and the forensics team.

Football players ranging from first-year letter- men to lettermen of all four years were honored as well as state cross country runners, volleyball players, and football statisticians, at the fall ath- letic banquet. The spring banquet saluted the boys' and girls' basketball teams, cheerleaders, tracksters, and coaches. The seniors were also recognized by the T-Club, when Tim Hegarty and Jennifer Scholz, presented plaques, which listed all the seniors had done in their high school career. Departing seniors were also recognized with cer- tificates from the basketball coaches. Jason McNemee was also honored with the Big Trojan award for attending the most athletic events. 92 • Athletics Karen Thomas, Jennifer Scholz, and Paula Smith present Mr. Gerner the State Class 2A Boys' Basketball Sportsmanship Award, which the Trojans won during the State Basketball Tournament.

Bottom Left: Guy's Carry Out was a new addition to the com- munity. This gave students a place to grab a bite to eat after late ballgames. I t's very natural to search for money. People occasionally look through jean's pockets or they, with hope, rummage through the top of a dresser, under a dresser, or through a junk catcher, des- perately searching for that loose change that they spotted yesterday. While that casual search was probably just for the purchase of a candy bar or pop, the journal- ism class needed money for a bigger reason, to pay for the yearbook. The journalism class didn't look through jeans or a junk catcher, they sold ads, as in years be- fore. Businesses in Troy, Hiawatha, Wathena, Atchi- son, White Cloud, Elwood, Bendena, Highland, and St. Joe, Missouri, were contacted. Times were hard and many times, students met with the dreaded words, No, not this year. Even with the down times, three new busi- nesses were added to Troy. They were Guy's Carry Out, a pizza place; The Main Attrac- tion, a hair salon; and Gary McIntosh a regis- tered physician's assistant, specializing in sports medicine, who joined Dr. Eplee's office in the Troy Hotel.

School ended May 23, for the juniors, sopho- mores, and freshmen, but the once-in-a-lifetime high school career for seniors ended May 20, at graduation. Opportunities to experience extra- curricular activities such as Kayettes, speech, or sports came to a close, and some maximized their talents to the fullest, as they made their first step into reality. Memories were made, the yearbook was finally finished (after many hours of hard work!) finals were kicked out of the way, teachers and admin- istration left, and then once again, the once-in-a- lifetime year was over and the school doors were shut.
