Define Your Topic Confusion and uncertainty in Warren schools reached a climax in August and then disappeared suddenly. As soon as the 7th Dist- tict Court of Appeals in Chicago ruled against forced busing of 1200 blacks from Indianapolis Public School, the school system quieted and began a normal rou- tine. The decision did not come until a week before school start- ed, but the apprehension began ten years before that. The court decision triggered a train of events which set a mood of excitement and involvement for this decade ' s last year. Returning home from a sum- mer trip to St. Louis, the Warrior band placed tenth in state com- petition. Following their example, the Orchestra returned from their performance on the White House lawn and at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. Brightly dressed characters acted out the delightful play The Pale Pink Dragon to a crowd of children to open the drama de- partment ' s season, and all the fall teams set about establishing themselves as leaders in county, regional and state competition. Defining the quality of life at Warren Central caused us to look at all the angles. On your mark. Senior Mary Kay Kaupke does not let the rain spoil her teams chances of winning in the senior ' s bike and trike race. The golden arch.

Focus Your Lens Time to rise and shine this year was half an hour earlier. The new time schedule pushed the beginning of school up to 8 a.m. and ended it at 2:40 p.m. Changes were evident every- where, from a new addition to auto body class, to an abund- ance of student teachers, to a more conservative Homecoming parade. Enthusiasm was pump- ed into the student body by the energies of Warrior mascot, Henry Sabetti, as the football season exploded into state rank- ings. New times for early release emerged along with fewer field trips as a result of a 70 percent gas allotment reduction. Inflation hit as school lunches went up from 65 cents to 75 cents. WEDM, our student radio sta- WEDM, our student radio sta- tion located in Walker Career Center, has a new director, Mr. Tim Renshaw, and more than a share of problems. Students missed the lunch time rock and finally, after weeks of meetings, music again was piped into the cafeteria. The Owl and Wigwam staffs won more awards than they could carry home, with both pub- lications receiving 4-Star All- Americans, and The Owl re- ceiving the national Gallup Award for editorial leadership. Security in the parking lot im- proved, and the whole school joined in raising money for the Jana Shisler fund for a former student who was injured in a tragic accident at I.U. Both good and bad features appeared in the picture at War- ren, as we tried to examine all the angles. A woman ' s place. Junior Stephanie Emery proves that a woman ' s place is not only in the home, but also in the garage. Stephanie demon- strates her knowledge of car repair during auto body class. Pep Talk. Game plans are discussed between senior Rick Colangelo and Coach Dilk during the Homecoming game against Terre Haute South, where the offense demonstrated their strength with a crushing defeat. 4 Opening All the Angles
