Walnut Union City, 7ft 47390 Volume 51 AUV€I “Prime time”, extended school hours, no early dismissal for athletic events and no school time for “non-educational” activities such as school pictures, field trips, or club meetings. These were the challenges faced by UCCHS students as they stumbled to school at 7:30 or stayed late to try to work in all their activities. Weddings abounded as four faculty members took the big step. Oktoberfest was a big success, the Senior play was a hit, the Seniors won the powder puff football game, the faculty showed their usual dedication and enthusiasm, dress-up days provided comic relief in the sometimes monotonous routine, our athletes showed their spirit with numerous victories, as once again we rallied to the cause and pulled off another great year at UCCHS! 2 Participation — Alice in ’85 I Union City girls vie for titles Two of Union City’s loveliest misses contended for beauty honors this year. Karin Good represented U.C. at the annual Junior Miss pageant held at Winchester on October 2, and brought home the title of “Spirit of Junior Miss”. Miss Indiana National Teenager, Rafaela Farias, competed with 68 other contestants at Indiana Central during the month of June. The girls were judged on appearance, poise, and personality, and Rafaela came out on top winning a $15,000 scholarship to Oklahoma City University, $1,000 in cash and a $1,000 scholarship to Barbizon. During the talent section of the judging, Rafaela danced to the tune of “There’s No Stopping Us” and apparently there wasn’t, as her 1st place runner-up win earned her another $10,000 scholarship to Eckert College in Florida. Rafaela qualified for the National Contest and spent a 10-day paid vacation in Florida. Carla Rismiller — faculty 1985 Successus Staff members: Bottom Row: Ann Jones. Classes: Lynn Gates.

Seniors and Graduation. 8 Successus Staff copes The Successus staff under the able direction of senior editor, Lori Gates, worked hard to record the memories of the ’84-’85 school year. The book was produced without benefit of assigned school time for the staff to meet and coordinate ideas. The staff managed to cope with this difficulty, along with many others, and gave up much of their precious “free time” to meet those pressing deadlines and get the book finished. 1.

On Thursday, September 11th, the Homecoming activities began with the usual pep session, bonfire, and powder puff game. The Seniors showed thir prowess and for the second year in a row emerged as champions. Friday festivities began as the floats, cars and contestants lined up in the school parking lot and began the procession through the downtown area. The Homecoming theme this year was Disney characters and was cleverly carried out by all the classes. Senior theme and float were voted tops, however, with “Swallow the Dogs”, depicted by a whale that rolled his eyes, moved his tail and spouted water! The fog began moving in at halftime until the visibility was almost zero, and the spectators had difficulty recognizing the King and Queen candidates as they walked across the field following their introductions. Lori Gates and Von Ebeling were crowned reigning royalty during the hazy halftimes ceremonies. The third and fourth quarters were shortened, but even the fog couldn’t save the Indians from a 46 to 6 defeat by the Lapel Bulldogs. The fog became so dense that the usual post game dance was cancelled. “85” Seniors present “Omen, Amen!” “Gel out of here, you idiot. Miss Lestradc is coming.

The class decorated the halls and the cheerleaders did their usual fine job on locker decorations. The girls were inspired to their great ef- forts by dress up days and the fine gourmet fare offered in the school cafeteria which included such delicacies as “Marauder Meat” sandwiches. The girl’s also helped Coach Webster celebrate his birthday this week by filling his room with toilet paper and having a surprise party for him. “Game Shows” was the theme of the boy’s Spirit Week and dress up days included dressing like a Whammy, Favorite Celebrity, Twin Day, Price Tag Day and “Let’s Make a Deal” Day. 1.

The group met at 7:30 every Tuesday morning to plan and organize their many activities, which included the usual Oktobcrfcst, carnation sales, school dances, etc. Their most successful endeavor this year however, was their “secret pal” project. Each member was assigned a teacher “pal” to whom they gave notes, candy, and miscellaneous surprises though the school year. Some “pals” were more active than others and there were good-natured comments among faculty members about pals dying or moving away. This project ended at a May breakfast, where the teachers learned the identities of their pals. All the faculty reported huge enjoyment of this special project. This year’s officers were: Christa Snyder, President; John Jones, Vice-President; Andrea Hap, Secretary; Corey Van Skyock, Treasurer. Corey Van Skyock also received the honor of running for and winning the position of district representative for 1985 through 1987. ?■ 1.

The results were very high as Tracy Shopc led the way with a first division group one rating in a clarinet solo. Tracy then joined Andrea Hap in a alto saxophone duet and received a very high first division rating. The Drill Team added a touch of class, performing on the field with the band.

The opening game of the season saw Union defeat Union 64-44 but the Indians then lost the next five games with a total of 13 points. The Big Red grabbed the Randolph County Tournament crown with victories over Winchester, Randolph Southern and Monroe Central. This big win gave the Indians the “Horseshoe which they would retain for the season. The first year in the newly-formed Richmond sectional was a success for the Indians as they defeated Randolph Southern 58-46 and Centerville 74-61 before closing out a fine season against an outstanding Richmond team in the finals. Vince Miller led the Indians in scoring with a 19.0 PPG average and in rebounding with a 10.0 RPG average. In addition. Miller was named MVP in the county tournament, as accorded lop honors on the TEC all-star team, and added honorable-mention all-state honors to his list of accomplishments. Senior David Stout directed the Indians from his point guard position, leading the team in assists and also taking all-county and all-TEC honors. Another senior. Brett Kimball, contributed steady performances throughout the season, finishing second in scoring with a 13.0 PPG average, second in rebounding with 5.7 RPG average, and first in steals with 37. His solid inside play was instrumental in several of the Indian victories. The third senior Von Ebcling showed steady play by coming up with the big play when needed and scoring bursts that gave the team additional spark. Juniors Kirby De-haven and Rob Rcsslcr also started and played very well during the season. This years Junior Varsity started the season with a three overtime win at Union and ended the first half of the season with a 3-3 record at Christmas break. The second half of the season was much more successful by winning the Randolph County Reserve Tourney and by winning 13 of the last 14 games. The season record showed a big 16 wins and 4 losses. The 1984-1985 Freshmen Basketball Team finished their season with a record of 5 wins and 6 losses. Three of the losses were by a total of 5 points, which indicated the competitiveness of this team.
