The 1980 Queens' Court and Representatives hosted their annual Queens' Assem- bly. The candidates did skits to Walt Disney's, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and also The Bear Necessities. Each girl went to Gittle- man's in Alma, picked out an outfit and modeled it for the school while the MC, Mr. Barnes, described them. The candidates for queen also gave a short speech con- cerning the person who had helped them the most through- out their high school years. Each of these people accom- panied their candidate and were later given a flower in to- ken of their appreciation. 17 Simor Ppwderpull: Row 1: Sue Pour!. Suzanne Holmes; Pallf Hills.

The week of Oct. 26 was filled with fun and fitness as the juniors and seniors tried to ready themselves for the annual powderpuff football game. Day after day the teams practiced ... prac- ticed ... and practiced some more, concentrat- ing on a Halloween victory. It was a sunny afternoon and the excitement flooded through every junior and senior as they waited for the game to begin. Chants came up from the senior side as did screams from the juniors, the buzzer sounded, and the game began. Several times, in the first half, the ball went to the juniors then back to the seniors, back and forth the ball went but at the end of the first half the score was still deadlocked 0-0. Defense was a key factor in the game. Neither team found their way into the end-zone in the third quarter and with only 1 minute and 52 seconds left in the game it looked as though there would be an overtime quarter. As the seconds ticked away the seniors found an open receiver and it was 6-0 seniors. On the last play, a tailback reverse right finished off the game adding another 2 points to the seniors. The buzzer sounded and the scoreboard read 8-0 seniors. lumor Powderpull Team: Row 1: Tammy Liberty, Kris Bigelow. Dawn Loomis, Kerri Pearl, Debbie Purcell. Sue Riggs.

The Agony Of Defeat Capturing everyone's attention during home- coming week was VHS's annual Almost anything goes competition and Spirit Week. Each day of Spirit week brought something new, the first being Sports Day. The student body had the chance to dress up as their favorite sports player. Tuesday proved to be a sight! Everyone dressed up as an oddball. Lonnie Majeski was the talk of VHS as he wore a short dress, knee highs and a blond curly wig. The third day, Hat and Glasses Day fea- tured everything from a ten gallon hat to glasses with wipers on them. Vestaburg never looked so good as they did on the fourth day. Three piece suits and pretty dresses filled the halls. Friday was the day most participated in. Nearly everyone showed the team their support by wearing some- thing red and white. Also taking place Friday was the annual Almost Anything Goes competition. The games included this year were: the sack relay, popcorn catch, blind football kick, egg toss and volleyball. The seniors took first place in the sack relay, volleyball tourneys, the popcorn catch and the boy's egg toss, which won them the pep jug for 1980. 21 eiuwMo VOlWKlNffl «UXSIAJs luxaun WUMUkts Starting the season was difficult with a small and inexperienced team, but the JV's never lacked in spirit. They always fought until the final buzzer. The young team lost two of their most valuable players to the varsity squad due to some varsity injuries. They ended the season with a disappoint- ing 0-6 record. First year head coach Randy Hummel support- ed his team through the rough season, keeping morale high when nothing seemed to go right for them. Let's go red! Shouts like this came up from the sidelines as the Wolverine cheerleaders gave their all to the team. The squad was made up of six sophomores and juniors: Kim Erhard, Connie Loo- mis, Lynn Krafft, Lori Majeski, Dawn Loomis, and Lori Avery. Their spunk and spirit quickly spread to the fans and raised the excitement of the game. Without their support, the game of football wouldn't be the same. 1) The lour Musketeers. 2) Big Rog checks out the action. 3) Faithtul VHS tans. 4) Football cheerleaders: Row 1: Lori Avery, Connie Loomis.

Their single victory was their most important game, in more ways than one. It was homecom- ing and they played long time arch rivals, the Montabella Mus- tangs. The final score of the game was 12-6. That wasn't the end. The homecoming spirit flew into the next week with a game against Saranac. The students wore pins and buttons and did something they hadn't done in several years, they filled 2 specta- tors buses to take to the game. Theyx chanted, sang and let out loud cheers. The spirit of the fans lifted the spirit of the players but it wasn't quite enough as they lost a heartbreaker 12-8. During the regular season there was a considerable differ- ence between the 1st and 2nd half of the game. The second half was often played with much more aggression and spirit but still it wasn’t enough to pull out a win. This year the team voted Matt Vusich as most valuable player. Brad Showers was most improved and Bruce Keyes, most spirited. 1) Coach Decker tells Rick Enterline to play football the way it should be played. 2) Ready . . . set ... hit! 3) Lonnie muses as he quenches his thirst, with Gatoraid. 4) Todd Beach pulls down a flying eagle from Carson City. 1980 Homecoming Excitement At A Glance 28 October 10th brought double excitement. It was homecom- ing, but what made it even better was we were playing arch rivals, Montabella Mustangs. The Wolverines took an early lead as lames Wolfgang dashed into the endzone for a touchdown. Edmore came back to tie things up before halftime, 6-6, but it wasn’t enough as the Wolves, with a pass from Majeski to Clark, made the final score 12-6. At halftime, the excitement grew even more intense as all the fans waited for the announcement of the 1980 homecoming queen. For the first time in the school's history, a tie in the voting occured and Suzanne Holmes and DeeAnn Wright shared the honor of being co-queens. Halftime enjoyment also included the announcement of float winners. Winning first place was the sophomore float, Escape to Victory Mountain. The freshmen placed second, followed by the seniors with third. The seniors also won the pep jug for having the most spirited class during homecoming week. 1) We re number one, gnns Bob Busman as he holds up the sophomore's first place float trophy. 2) lames Wolfgang gains yardage for the Wolverines. 3) Suzanne Holmes glows after she is named queen. 4) Decker prepares to send in a player with the next play. 5) A look down at the swarm. 6) The co-queens smile happily. 7) Dee Ann Wright reacts when she, too is crowned queen. 29 Varsity Basketball 1) Snyder goes up for two. 2) Dee Wright scrambles for the ball and gets a Sacred Heart player in the bargain. 3) Obviously outnumbered, this Vestaburg player uses arms and legs to fight off four Wildcats, who seem to be living up to their nickname. 4) MVP Ranaye Cairl sets a pic for teammate Peggy Snyder. 30 Hoopsters Hustle For Two Wins Girls’ Varsity Basketball Team: Betty Hillard, Kerri Pearl, Kns Bigelow, Shelly Darmody, Sue Pearl. Brenda Frost, DeeAnn Wnght. Ranaye Cairl, Heather Watson, Janene Bradley, Peggy Snyder. Top Center: Coach Diane Wilson. Coach Dianne Wilson best summed up the feel- ings of herself and her team this year with the statement, It was a very disappointing season for all of us. Beginning the year with high expectations, the girls worked hard and practiced regularly, yet still finished with a depressing 2-17 record. The wins were sweet, however, coming against Edmore rival, Mon tabella and ever tough Beal City. Seniors, Dee Ann Wright, Ranaye Cairl, Heather Watson, Sue Pearl and Shelly Darmody were joined on the court by several able juniors. The girls were strong defensively and ran a deliberate offense. Connecting on buckets seemed to be their downfall. Wilson also cited lack of consistency as a real problem. Ranaye Cairl copped most of the post season honors, being selected team MVP and honorable mention all TCAA league. Teammate Heather Watson was also selected as honorable mention TCAA. 31 32 Disney Parade Delights Viewers A sunny afternoon, well constructed floats, a fine queen's court and the good playing of our school marching band spelled success for the an- nual homecoming parade. Cruising through downtown Vestaburg, the pa- rade entertained people of all ages with its six Disney themed floats, trucks packed with football players, grand marshall Harry Brown and wife Lu- cille, and several other entries. The queen's float, constructed year after year by the Vestaburg Education Association, was tradi- tionally saved until last, and to some it was definite- ly the best. 1 1) Mr. Doug Palmer chautfeurs Grand Marshalls Harry and Lucille Brown in Mrs. C's Caddie. 2) The sophomore's first place winning float, Escape to Victory Mountain.

This year's J.V. Volleyball team, with high spirits and a never give-up attitude, battled to win five games but couldn't quite put a match together. The team, coached by Beverly Kenyon con- sisted of six freshmen, one sophomore, junior, and senior. Scoring leader Lori Wrightman scored twen- ty-one percent of the team's points. Lynn Krafft closely followed Wrightman with nineteen per- cent. Despite their record of 4-12 the J.V. girls' basketball team fought bravely throughout the season. The girls having gone into two overtime games, winning one and losing the other by only two points, showed that they wouldn't give-up. The young team coached by art teacher Gary Lesky, had a group of veteran sophomores and a beginning group of six freshmen. Leading scorers for the season were sophomore Cheryl Freeman and freshman Michelle Cairl.

This group of young ladies worked hard all year. Playing in a tough league, they managed to pull out two wins, both against Maple Valley. They also scored 13 points in a game against Carson City Cry- stal, the 2nd place team in the league. Coach Beverly Kenyon's team traveled to Sacred Heart for district tournament play, only to lose to a tough Michigan Lutheran Seminary team.

The 1980-81 varsity basketball team, coached by Mark Stevens, will go down in history as Vestaburg's first-ever TCAA league champions. The Wolverines started fast, rolling past their first three opponents, before facing their only setback in regular season play against a strong Lakeview team. This did not lessen the pace as the team then rallied to set a record 15 game winning streak, highlighted by a 19 point win over Lakeview which captured them a share of 1st place in the league. The Wolver- ines then went on to win the remainder of their league games and took sole possession of the league title when Lakeview went down in defeat to third ranked Carson City Crystal. Tournament play found the Wolverines matched against the Ashley Bears, whom they easily over-powered by a score of 59-41 to advance to the finals against district arch-rivals Sacred Heart. This game saw the best season in Wolverine history come to a close as they were defeated 53-59 before a capacity crowd. 1) Dan lenison gives this Irish player a good taste ot leather as Harry McClel- lan and Scott Freeman wait for the loose ball. 2) The Doctor holds a clinic on the jump shot. 3) Wolverine DuWayne Johnson shows the easiest way to get 2 points. 4) League's MVP Harry McClellan aided by Matt Snyder take total control ol this deiensive rebound. 40 17-1 Season, One Stats and Facts Teams We .

The odds weren't enough, however, as they wrapped up their season early with a disappointing 14-4 loss to Beal City in pre-district play. Senior Heather Watson, who led the team in batting and fielding, sparked the team to their 3 wins of the season, one of which came in the season opener when they squeaked by Beal City, 15-14. The other two wins came in a clean sweep of a double header against Maple Valley. Watson received a lot of help from junior Kris Begelow, along with the pitching arms of senior Dee Ann Wright, sophomore Cheryl Freeman and freshman Page Deyar- mond. This year's team was ably guided by 5th year coach Dianne Wilson and assisted by Cheryl Fox. 1) Mrs Wilson claps for a job well done. 2) The learn reacts to a line drive by Shelly Darmody. 3) Here Heather, you take the ball. 4) Feeling the pressure of a full count, pitcher DeeAnn Wnght concentrates on throwing a stnke. 45 1980 Record Bettered This year's Varsity Baseball squad under the leadership of second year coach Wes Cum- mings improved their 1980 re- cord of 1 -17 to 5-15 winning close games over Beal City, Shepherd, Saranac and Portland. In the next to the last game of the season the Wolverines came up to bat in the bottom of the 7th inning behind Maple Valley 4-1. To start off the last half of the inning Rick Enter- line slapped a single up the mid- dle, followed by a hard double by Buck Majeski. Todd Beach then stepped up to the plate and smashed a triple driving in both Enterline and Majeski. Matt Beach then dropped a single into right-center field to bring in his brother Todd. With no outs in the inning Dan lenison ripped the first pitch for a double driving in Matt Beach to win the game 5-4. Pitching ace Dan Jenison pitched 10 games with 45 strike-outs and only allowed 11 earned runs. His earned run average was an out- standing 1.86. The team voted Dan as Most Valuable Player. He also got Honorable Mention in the league. Pitcher, catcher, and Short stop Buck Majeski led the team in batting with a .350 aver- age. Buck also made second team All Conference.

In the past, carnival money has gone for A.V. materials, P.A. system, playground equipment, and gym equipment. Royality this year included Onalee Beach, queen; Dan Fleming, king. Junior high students Kate Brantley and Scott Olejnic- zak were princess and prince. The smell of sweating bodies and the sound of grunting could often be heard in the weight room. It takes about two months to see positive results in indi- viduals. Weight lifting can also help an injured ath- lete get back into action quicker. We bought new Olympic machines this year, and made benches and racks and also bought a lat and leg press machine. The weight machines were easier to use, a person can finish a total workout in a short time. Weight lifting is very important, it’s like any other sport, you get out of it exactly what you put in it. Work hard and you'll get good results! Sport Sweat 48 1) 1981 Carnival royalty went to Onalee Beach, queen; Dan Fleming, king; Katie Brantley, pnncess; Scott Olejniczak, prince. 2) Rob Fisk.

Prom: “Knights Are Forever” On May 2, the gymnasium became a castle, blue jeans gave way to tuxedos and formals, and the food, quite unlike any served in the cafeteria, was plentiful. The occasion ... Knights are Forever ... this year's junior senior prom and banquet. The banquet was smorgasbord style with a delicious salad bar and a whole table of main foods. The mistress of ceremo- nies, Jackie Skirvin, accepted the class key from Sen- ior president Patti Hills. Brenda Frost gave the invo- cation. The senior prophecies were read by Dawn Loomis and Brenda Frost who had a hard time not laughing at some of the stranger ones. As everyone ate, they listened to piano music played by Sarah Avery. Around 34 couples enjoyed dancing to the music of Aerial'' after the banquet. The tables were candle lit and there was a beautiful cake and punch. At 1 a.m. everybody moved on the Skytop Drive-In for the all-night prom party. Prom was one night that will forever be remembered. 50 1 mt j MY 2 $mU£T' troh-t.oo- TOO r.m v« . ,1 1. mmm!! says Patti Hills, can I have a bite? 2.

For some it brought a feeling of great accomplishment while to others it brought a tear. Special memories went running through the minds of everyone. The fun times, the sad times, the crazy things that made each classmate spe- cial to the other classmates. The Valedictorian, Sue Olejniczak, and Salu- tatoriam Sherri Busman each gave a short speech on their hopes for the class's future. The guest speaker for commencement excer- icises, Mr. Donald Currie, captured everyone's attention with his wit and intelligence. As the reception line formed, each senior was congratulated on a job well done and said his last goodbyes to the V.H.S. faculty members and friends. 1) Linda Wing and Chris Kinsey make sure they look su- perb ior the graduation ceremony. 2) Diana Mayne smiles at her accomplishment as she receives her diploma. 3) Meet the 1981 honor students??! 4) Alter he gets his diploma. Bill Deyarmond debates whether or not to give Mrs. Borton a big kiss. 5) Come on Mr DeShano, why can t we play a quick game ol euchre before graduation? 6) Aiter gradu- ation the senior girls decide to try out for the Dallas Cow- boys' cheerleading squad. 52 JANUARY 1981: Hostages released FEBRUARY 1981: Worst snow storm MARCH 1981: Walter Cronkite, from Iran after 444 days of captivity, in three years hits Michigan.

One day we were bored while waiting for our pictures to be printed, the next day we were running around and having to stay after school, trying to meet a deadline, the day after we were eating pizza to celebrate meeting it. In other words, it was alot of fun and hard work, but sometimes we wanted to pull our hair out. You might think that all the yearbook staff does is paste up pictures, write copy, arrange layouts, meet deadlines and look at pictures. But there was alot more to it. We had to be fast and creative at the same time. We also got to run the roads selling ads. going to conferences, entering contests, and sometimes Mrs. Rau would even let us take her car. ‘Playback's editor was Patti Hills, with Kelly Trayer as assistant editor. Our teacher was again Mrs. Rau, and she did alot toward helping Patti plan and organize the yearbook. Toby Archam bault. our photographer, assisted by Larry Woodrow, spent most of the time in the dark- room. while people were screaming for their pic- tures to be developed. Everyone in the class put an enormous amount of time and thought into our 1981 Playback . Last year we won an award for Dawn of a Dec ade. This year, we fought hard to make Play- back the best.

Behind the red and white Wolverine Ban- ner Miss Piggy and Kermit, to the cheers of the crowd, danced the night away. The band m the background performed the Muppet Medley. This was just one of their many en- tertaining performances. Dunng the football games and parades or jamming in the bleach- ers at pep assemblies and basketball games or when at festivals and putting on concerts. Dick Uren s band always got the spirit up. Modest Uren says Let me put it this way, this amazing group ot students gained musical skills in spite ot me. This year the amazing group traveled to Mt. Pleasant to compete in the annual festival. The senior band came through with a two. The junior high band traveled to Hemlock for their annual festival. They were the only class D band who received a one in sight-reading. Overall, they received a two. The members of the senior band who went to solo ensemble were Sarah Avery on piano, Wendy Walker on clarinet, Joelette Elder.

Row 2: Rod Brauher, Larry Feldkamp, Brad Showers. This year's National Honor Society and Spanish Club were active individually as well as together. Both groups worked hard on money making projects such as selling posters, candy and paper goods to pay lor a three day trip to Toronto, Canada in April. The National Honor Society, made up ol 22 mem- bers, gave a special honor to outstanding scholastic students. The Vestaburg chapter inducted 10 mem- bers in February. Each ol the students were selected on the basis ol scholarship, character, service and leadership. Also the students in the society had to maintain a 3.0 grade point average in all academic areas. Mrs. Christensen's Spanish club chose to be very active this past year, involving themselves in such activities as Christmas pinata parties lor third graders, alloween parties and taco dinners. The 13 members relaxed at a summer taco fiesta at Mrs. C's pool and also attended Spanish culture films at Alma College to gain further knowledge of Spanish customs and lifestyles. 60 It Takes Brains And Leadership A lot of the enjoyable things you see at VHS are brought about by the active student councils. These two groups, both High School and Jr High were very much a part of the student life, especially during Homecoming week as they sponsored many activities including the Almost Anything Goes, parade, Queens Assembly, halftime of the game and dance. They also sponsored a food drive for 8-cap and had a dance at which the admission was two cans of food. The High School student council spent 650.00 to buy a comput- er for the Math Department. This first year was spent by the Ir High organizing and setting up by-laws. They still found time to sponsor the Walt Disney movie Hot Lead and Cold Feet , an attempt to offer low cost entertainment to the public. The high school officers for the year were: President- Toby Archambault, Vice Pres-Suzanne Holmes, Secretary- Rod Brauher, Treasurer-Sue Olejniczak. Jr High officers included President-Scott Olejniczak, Vice Pres-Katie Brantley, Secretary-Karen Bigelow, Treasurer-Jodi Trayer. sponsors were, Mrs. Sayers (HS) and Mr Koutz (Jr H) The Quiz Bowl team, sponsored by Mr Hodges and consisting of Diana Mayne, Rod Brauher, Suzanne Holmes, Jackie Skirvin and Patti Hills traveled to Alma College and completed against Fowler where they were defeated in round one.

Fourteen year veter- an, Naomi Tubbs trained these girls to handle any- thing! Over at the superintendent's office, Mrs. Wood and Mrs. Narragon did such things as write up reports, and basic secretarial work. Tracey Reed wrote checks, balanced ledgers and also did the book-keeping. Mrs. Freeman was the lunch cashier. She checked off names in the lunch line, collected money and wrote out lunch reports. She was also a library aid. Mrs. Huggins taught the student librarians. They helped her run the library, organized books and magazines and ran errands. 64 1) Office Practice: Kris Bigelow.

Diana Mayne. Laurie Howell, Lori Avery, Ed Muscott, Mrs. Huggins. 65 English Department Nineteen years of exper- ience made Mrs. Christen- sen the senior of the English department. While watch- ing films and using kits in her English 9 and research paper classes, Mrs. C de- cided to try a cooking unit in her Spanish I and II classes. They also listened to Spanish music. Mrs. C teaches Spanish to the ele- mentary, too. Mrs. Fox, a twelve year veteran at VHS, came up with many new things to make her classes interest- ing. Writing book reports with pictures, creative writing, and a variety of ways to study a story were some of them. Some of the classes that Fox taught were Con- temporary Lit, Journal- ism, 20th Century au- thors and Short Story. Getting a new machine to set their own type was a high- light in Mrs. Rau's publications class. They also took a day to sell ads and made a large amount of money. In her 7th and 8th grade classes, Rau had a Greek track and field day at the end of a Mythology unit. She is currently teaching her fourth year here. In her reading classes, grades 7 through 10, Mrs. Tissue tried to use as many high-interest reading ma- terials as possible, including comic books, TV-related stories, and stories on tapes. Mock job interviews video-taped were a new pro- ject lor Mrs. Kenyon-Stratton, teaching her third year at VHS, and her Vocational English classes. In the rest of her classes, 9th grade, Health and English Lit, Stratton liked to present material in a logical order, to give structure to the class. — 67 68 History, Band, Library, Science, Social Studies An efficiently run library, stocked with current and popular titles, is made possible through the diligence of our librarian, Mrs. Huggins. She manages, in her spare time, to provide a jungle ol plant life for would-be scholars to lose themselves in. The veteran of all veterans at Vestaburg, Mr. Uren has been at VHS for an astronomical 28 years. He got a taste of something new this year by teaching 8th grade history. His senior band class has produced many musically talented peo- pie going to state solo and ensemble competition. Settling into his 9th year at VHS. Mr. Barnes had tew changes in his classes. He taught his famed U.S. History class 3 hours a day, and as always you could earn extra cred- it by bringing in a current event. In his World Cultures class, students studied case-study after case-study after case-study. W TH£ Transferring from Bloomfield Hills An- dover, Mr. Torgerson taughf his first year at VHS. His chemistry class produced many scholars by working m labs with numerous chemicals as his general science class' section on aviation taught many students the funda- mentals of making an airplane! Giving students with problems extra help was the object of a new class. Alternative Education, taught by Mr. Palmer. Perhaps the finest trial in government class was produced this year when Du Wayne Johnson was found not quilty of a mercy killing of his brother. Commenting he had a limited amount of sci- ence backround. Palmer struggled through a year of teaching 7th grade science. Wood Shop, Home-Ec Special Ed, Art, Auto Although not livable, miniature houses in bottles did make excellent art projects. Mr. Lesky, art teacher for four years, educated his many students in the making of posters which decorated halls and advertised dances all year. This year Mr. Lesky's visual arts class made a poster of each of the boys' varsity basketball team members. Timber! Yes, that's what it takes, a lot of timber, noise and hard work to build a piece of furniture in woodworking class. Mr. Decker, wood teacher for four years, said his students made many large pro- jects this year. Decker's construction tech class built two small buildings for commu- nity members. You've got to learn how to fix cars somewhere, and why not in the capable hands of Mr. Allen's auto classes? After teaching here for seven years, Allen said his students did more engine rebuilding and worked on more small cars this year than ever before. Experiences in auto repair certainly prepared students for future auto mechanics careers. Being a friend as well as a teacher to his students is what counts. Mr. Miller has taught special ed for six years and is a much needed part of the teaching staff. This year Miller's special ed students enjoyed learning about job requirements from the new MOIS com- puter in the counselor's office. Did you ever make it to Oregon, Miller? If you don't know how to cook, don't eat! To Mrs. Thompson, sev- en year vet in the home-ec de- partment, teaching students how to cook, sew and fend for them- selves in the outside world is what she enjoys doing for a living. Even though after she's done cooking and sewing at school, she goes home and does it again. 71 ZL Administra ti on, A.D., Counselors Our man on the scene this year was Mr. De- Shano, high school principal. No one could figure out how someone who spent so much time behind the closed doors of his office could show up so often when least expected. Lunch time ... there he was. Between classes ... there he was. Fire crackers ... there he was. He did, however, find time to tackle the difficult problem of curriculum changes for the 1981-82 school year. Too busy to fill out our yearbook questionnaire this year was superintendent Keats Wood. We don't really know what he did, but rumor has it he kept busy with administrative duties, budget prob- lems, transportation, and board business. Dealing with the problems of the students was our high school counselor, Miss Brokop. Her )ob involved talking to students about careers, going i to college, what classes to take, and also about personal problems. New this year was the MOIS computer terminal which provided students with complete information on almost any career avail- able. ; Mr. Kidwell handled special education and jr. high counseling. He enjoyed meeting the students and being able to help them. It gave him a good feeling when he could help a student that really needed it. Kidwell said he also tried to get younger I students to think about what career they wanted to go into. The duties of athletic director and jr. high social studies were performed by Mr. Cummings. As he said, ‘T teach junior high social studies in the i morning. In the afternoon I turn into athletic direc- i tor. Sometimes the job was exasperating. It in- volved a lot of paperwork, scheduling and plenty i of details for the athletic programs. It didn't stop there, however. It also involved many evenings supervising athletic contests. I) Rarely able to spend time at his desk, Mr. Wood isn't sure whether he's happy about being there now. 2) Paper, pencil. Mountain Dew . Mr Kidwell is ready tor anything. 3) Miss Brokop smiles at the dictionary's definition ol busy1 4) A.D., Mr. Cummings is caught with his little black book . 5) A social studies grade is easily figured for 7th grader, Kirk Johnson. 6) With a look like that, it's certain Mr. DeShano likes what he sees. 73 Mathematics, Phys. Ed., Typing Numbers became very real lor Mr. Hodges this year as he packed what seemed like thousands into his 2 business math classes. In his 17th year here, Hodges worked toward teaching the important basics. Physically fit Wilson, who is m her 12th year at VHS, shape by exercising them on the typewriter during her typing I class. Weightlifting, tumbling, volleyball, and an all-time favorite, folk-dancing were some highlights of the PE classes. Again this year Mr. Koutz had jr. high students, geometry, and independent study. Koutz, who has been here 11 years, was pleased that for the first time ever, every student in a particular grade receive a C or better for a six weeks grade. Fingers curved, eyes on copy, be- gin . has been Mi's. Sayers motto tor the past 11 years in her VHS typing classes. Students who were seeking a business career saw alot of Mrs. Sayers in her Accounting and OHice Practice classes. Second year teacher Mr. Stevens' Health and Physical Conditioning shared the gym and classroom with Mrs. Wilson's Body Movements class. Two hours a week were spent in the classroom and three hours spent in the gym. Weightlifting and basketball were two of the favorites with all the students. Our mystery teacher for the past two years has been Mr. Beemer. who hid away in the mobiles, com- ing in contact two hours a day with jr. high math students. Mr. Beemer helped the kids learn their basic math facts and made it a little more interesting by having contests. 75 Workers Keep School Going There are several people other than teachers that affect the students' day at school. When you need to start your day off with a smile, you can count on the bus drivers to give you one. During the middle of the day when you are about to run out of steam, you can count on the school lunches to pick you up and take you through the day. The busses are kept in running condition by Cal Callison and Bill Walker. And then come the janitors that work long after the students go home. Thanks to the Cooks, Janitors, Bus drivers, and Cal the school is a better place to go to. 76 I Custodians: David Frick. Jerry Comer. Vicky Shepard, Sally Lewis. Naomi Beach. Scott Hacker. Clifford Palmer. Roy Cooper. 77 Junior High “Youngsters” Invade VHS Turf! The difficult adjustment from elemen- tary to junior high was made with ease by this year's seventh graders. By the end of the first week the students had learned how to weave in and out of hall traffic, make it to class on time and open their new combination lockers. Often the kids were seen cruising the halls on skate- boards or cheering at pep assemblies and games. 1) Mike and lodi Trayer, Katie Brantley, Bill Hacker, Brent Bissell, Karrie Holmes and Karen King indicate by various ex- pressions just exactly what Mrs. Rau's English class means to them.

This group of talented kids showed much interest in being involved in the school activities. There was a lot of versatility within the class. The boys’ basketball team came up with an 0-9 record, but say it was a good experience for next year. The girls' basketball team on the other hand, had a fair season with a 5-4 record. Classmates worked together in many other activities such as Homecoming and Carnival. Amy Keeler ran for prin- cess, while Dave Holsworth ran for prince. The class put their best foot for- ward in an effort to raise money to in- crease their funds. 1) Is Chris Kmdlle writing love letters again? 2) Class advisors: Mr. Torgerson.

Each day' brought new tortures to the three unfortunate teachers of the requireckeenior courses: Mr. Hodges' 2nd and 6th hour Business Math, Mrs. Thompson's Econ class and Mr. Pakjier's Govern- ment class. There were several memorable' ts in Business Math. Mrgtfodges will nevfflorget the lay he was helc hostage or when we all got a little bored and decided to walk out of class. The excitement of Mrs. Thompson's class focused on Denise Camp, Bruce Keyes and' Randy lenison. Paperwads, soap fights, eraser fights highlighted the class. In govern- ment, Mr. Palmer showed us the way a real trial was done as DuV.’ayne Johnson and Bruce Keyes were accused, of murder but were later acquitted. The senior girls once again prevailed as they won the annual powderpuff football game for the second straight year. Bruce Keyes was awarded the John Philips Sousa Award for his outstanding drumming. As the final days of school life approached, the senior class prepared for their departure by tilling water balloons and squirt guns only to empty them on poor unfortunate souls.

The second day started nth tired eyes and sore leet from their unguided tour of DC. vAjch led them by accident to the 7-eleven, a fast growing favoMe nighttime store.

The ex- pression captures the feeling of accomplish- ment after finishing Playback . As editor of the 1981 yearbook Playback , I'd like to give a special thanks to the entire yearbook staff for all their nice ideas and sup- port throughout the making of this yearbook. I would also like to thank our advisor, Mrs. Rau, for all her help, support and friendship when the going got tough. This yearbook holds several very special memories for me and I hope that as you read through the pages of 1981 's Playback you’ll find things that bring a smile to your face. May you get many years of enjoyment from Playback . Thank-You, Patti Hdls Editor
