These were a few of the questions a girl had to ask herself before she left the house just to go to school. Getting prepared to go to school was a major task for most girls, and if there was some special event such as prom it was a pure terror. The majority of girls took one to two hours to beautify them- selves for a normal day. Michelle McGhee, junior said, I don ' t do that much, i get up at 7:30 and take a shower and wash my hair. I get dressed, do my hair and make-up, and last I put on my jewelry. It only takes me about one hour to shower, shampoo, and shine. There was much more to looking good than just getting up in the morning and doing your hair and face for school. Girls and guys got their hair cut, styled, and permed often during a year. Most girls spent a great deal of time at a beauty shop trying to get ' 1he right look. Beauty shops had more to offer than just a perm and a haircut. Sophomore, Julie Davidson said, I take advantage of what a beauty shop has to offer. Not only do I get my hair done, I also tan, tone, and learn the hottest in makeup wear and manicures. Lying in tanning beds, toning on t oning tables, and experiments with the different shades of makeup helped girls to become more presentable. A girl in 1988 had to compete with a lot of people from looks to brains. It took a lot of work but the finished product was worth every minute of it.

Beat one egg and let it sit for about 3-5 mintues. Apply this to the face with fingers and let it dry. Peel off the mask and rinse face w ith warm water. 2. Wet all of the hair and pour one full can of beer through the hair until it becomes totally saturated. Rinse the beer out and wash as normal. 3. Cut two slices of a cucumber and place them over each eye. Let them sit for one hour then remove. stock exchange proves unstable The global crash of the stockmarket on October 19, 1987, created a whole new financial reality. What crashed was more than just the market. It was the Reagan Illusion; the idea that there could be a defense buildup and tax cuts without a price, that the country coulc live beyond its means indefinitely. Now it was over, and the dream of painless prosperity had been punctured. Bui what a wild binge it was! Speculative for- tunes built on junk bonds and stock manipulations helped paper over the cracks in an economy beset by sluggish investment and productivity. The stock exchange had never pretended to measure the underlying value of American companies. Instead, it produced collective judgment about the future profits these firms would generate. By suddenly and wildly re- evaluating its expectations about the years ahead, the market may have hel- ped fulfill its own gloomy prophecy. Kris Nolte, senior, stated, The stock market crash worried me because I didn ' t want what happened in the 1920 ' s to happen to us in the 1980 ' s. I thought it would be harder to pull out of it these days. Scare continues About one out of every 200 people, or 1.5 million Americans, were diagnosed as having the aids virus one year ago. Today, however, there are four million Americans that have the AIDS virus, about one in 75 people. By the year of 1993, it is expected that more people will die of AIDS than died in World War I, World War II, Korean and the Vietnam Wars combined. The first case diagnosed of having AIDS was in 1969 of a boy in St. Louis. The epidemic really took off in 1977. Since then, the number of AIDS cases has greatly increased. Of the people who had AIDS, 80% were teenagers. The best way .to prevent getting the virus was to have safe sex. It had to be a lifetime, one-to- one relationnship between two people. Condoms did not prevent AIDS. Micro- scopic holes were large enough for the virus to pass through. A person could not contract AIDS from casual contact or drinking from water fountains that AIDS victims had drunk from. No cure had yet been found and the only thing that could be done was help prevent the spread of AIDS. Laura Cadger, senior, stated, At the present time I don ' t feel particularly threatened by AIDS; however, I will be paying attention to future developments in the event that new ways of contract- ing the virus are discovered. 4 1 ' news theme designed by heather perry Top Gun on top For the 87-88 school year at Warsaw High School students had picked their favorites of just about everything. Students named Top Gun as their favorite movie. Other movies topping the list were Dirty Dancing, Revenge of the Nerds II, Mannequin, Crocodile Dundee, and Predator. Along with the favorite movie came the favorite actor, Tom Cruise. Students also chose Kirk Cameron, Patrick Swayze, and Rob Lowe. Molly Ringwald and Tracy Lawrence topped the favorite actress choices. The favorite looks at Warsaw High School were wild, preppy, serious, and normal. Levi, Guess, Polo, and Pepsi were the top name brands. Feet are well covered with Reebok, Adidas, Kaepa, and Nike. The school text book came in last as far as favorite books are concerned. Top choices were Where the Red Fern Grows, and the Bible. Charlotte ' s Web is Stacy Taylor ' s all time favorite book because, it ' s full of emotions and every time I read it it made me laugh and cry. Lance Ramsey, senior, stated, I prefer Levi jeans over any other brand of jeans because they are the only brand of jeans that fit my long legs and my rear-end. In an effort 1o keep the Persian Gulf open to navigation, tlie Untied States began in July to es- cort vessels to protect ttiem from Iran. In Sep- tember the U.S. Navy blew up an Iranian ship that was caught laying mines in the Gulf. Several mines were confiscated. USA frightened by peril in Gulf The waters outside the Persian Gulf resembled a floating parking lot, accord- ing to Time. A menacing cluster of mines had brought the world ' s busiest oil traffic to a sudden halt. Mines bobbed into sight one after the other. By week ' s end at least five had been spotted, and every tiny fishing boat that sailed by was carefully watched in case it tried to plant more of the dangerous devices. The mines, discovered after one blas- ted a hole in the U.S. -owned tanker Texaco Caribbean, added a lethal new twist to Washington ' s showdown with Iran. The explosives were the first to be found in the Gulf of Oman, a vital stag- ing area for ships plying the Persian Gulf. The mines of August drew a crowd of western warships to the area. The helicopter carrier USS Guadalcanal vj as due on station with eight minesweeping Sea Stallion choppers. Also enroute were the battleship Missouri and the dock ship Raleigh, which carried three small, wooden-hulled boats. After rebuffing American calls for help all summer, Britain and France decided to send seven minesweepers to the region. The old-fashioned Iranian mines had Western naval officers thoroughly spooked. The Pentagon estimated that 50 of them had been deployed and that Iran had nearly 1,000 more in reserve. It would take 50 minesweepers to keep the channels of navigation in the gulf open permanently, said a French ad- miral. The Iranians have us at their mercy with only a few hundred mines. The Dow Jones industrial stock average dropped 608 points, the largest in history, on Monday, Oc- tober 19. Some called it a crash , others called it a meltdown and others called it Block Monday. Whatever it was. it stripped S500 billion from the market value of U.S. securities. Wild and crazy memories With the best of friends Preppies, freaks, jocks, cheerleaders, snobs, geeks, and nerds were the dif- ferent clicks in high school. No matter which group a student was classified in, he or she had a best friend to share the most embarrassing and memorable moments with. Kevin Byrd and Scott Rogers, seniors, declared themselves jocks. Rogers ex- plained that their time together was spent showing off. One night we went to the show in Sedalia. When we got into the car Kevin tried to impress a couple of girls by spinning his tires. As we were spinning, ixie of the hubcaps flew off and roiled toward the girls. Michelle McGhee and Tracy Martin, juniors, spent a summer together water- logged. During the summer, the two girls went to the ballpark and had water fights. They would use buckets, cups, and hoses to try to soak the other. One night I had control of the hose and I was waiting for Michelle to walk out from behind the concession stand. When I heard her coming I started spraying. Little did I know I was spraying Dr. Boise, our superintendent! ex- plained Martin. Lori Wolfe and Kris Nolte, seniors, ex- plained how to flirt with a bumble bee. One hot summer day the two girls drove the Nolte ' s truck to the beach. With the windows rolled down, the truck rode down 7 highway. Suddenly, a bumble bee flew in the driver ' s window, buzzed by Nolte ' s ear, and crashed right into Wolfe ' s nose. Wolfe didn ' t know what hit her until Nolte pointed out the yellow dot right between her eyes. I guess you can say I got pollinated, commented Wolfe. Dustin Lear, Steve Yach, Steve Intel- mann, seniors; and Tony Jones, 1987 graduate, practiced for the mud marathon. We went to Bennet Spring to fish. When we caught our limit we walked back to the truck but we forgot our tackle boxes. We were all to tired to walk back down to the lake to get them so I drove the truck down. Being our luck we buried the truck in some mud. We spent four hours trying to get it out. One of the funniest moments was when Yach was pushing the front of the truck. As he helped, some of the mud came out from under the truck and hit him right between the eyes, throwing him to the ground, laughed Dustin Lear. Andrea Sherman and Shelly Hutton, sophomores, began training for amateur boxing. At the Clinton tournament, Andrea and I were running around during halftime. For some reason, Andrea decided to be witty and hide around the corner so she could hit me. But to tier surprise it wasn ' t me that she nailed but the fat guy walking in front of me. She hit him right in the stomach and his pop- corn went flying all over the place. She tried to apologize but the man saw no humor in it, said Hutton. Jerry Spry and Kevin Henderson, juniors, crashed and burned. Jerry and I were driving Dad ' s Bronco down a gravel road about sixty miles per hour. I was going so fast that I lost con- trol and we hit a ditch. We not only hit one ditch but also the road, another ditch, a fence, and the road again. I got out of the Bronco and I didn ' t think that there was any damage until I walked to the other side. That ' s when I knew I crashed and was going to burn when my parents found out, said Henderson. Pam Claycomb and Rachel Newberry, eighth graders, didn ' t have to be told to jump off the roof they did it on their own. 1 spent the night with Rachel one time and we got really bored. So, to put a little excitement in our lives we decided to jump off the roof. We jumped out a few times and then her dad caught us. We got into a lot of trouble, explained Claycomb. theme designed by kristen nolte P Kristi Breshears, Amy Potter.

Photo by Dina Thrasher activity division designed by shirl taylor WHS parties From September to May, five days a week, seven hours a day, high school students all over America could predict almost every aspect of their life: the clamor of bell ' s ringing; the journey (sometimes dangerous) every hour on the hour through crowded halls of chaos; the struggle against sleep as teachers drone on and on, etc... So, in order to break the rule of reptition and to cut the class of monotony, WHS students spent quite a bit of time, not studying, but dc.nc- ing, cheering at games, participating in various clubs and organizations dressing up for spirit days. ..having FUN!!! In FHA you get to go to fun places and there ' s always something happening. In cheerleading you get to go to all the ballgames and cheer your team on, said Michelle Wallace, junior. I like .yearbook because we get to leave school and go to town and we don ' t have to work on a daily basis as long as we get done by ■deadline, stated, senior, Lori Wolfe. Drill Team is fun because I like to dance and we have a good time. I like band, too. I enjoy playing the flute, stated Tracy Grubb, senior. I like Madrigal because I like to do dangerous stunts and to be thrown through the air, stated Kris Nolte, senior. I learned a lot and made a lot of friends in FHA. I had fun, Chelle Bobbins, senior, stated. My favorite activity is yearbook because, as editor, I can tell my staff what and what not to put in their copy, said Laura Cadger, senior.

Photo by Lance Ramsey Seniorsoutrageous Cats rule the court And the winner is... was a popular phrase for the Warsaw Wildcats during the Basketball Homecoming festivities Friday, January 15. The activities began the previous Monday with the annual Spirit Week. Each day the students would dress up to a different idea. The days were as follows: Monday, generic day; Tuesday, sweat day; Wednesday, clash day; Thursday, crazy day; Friday, school colors day. To pep up the students for the Homecoming game the Student Council sponsored a Pep As- sembly. The cheerleaders cheered and did a dance to Bad by Michael Jackson; an ice cream eating contest occurred between Coach Burke and Coach Dixon; the starters of both varsity teams had a tricycle race; and the drill team performed to U got the Look by Prince. I thought drill team ' s dance was very good be- cause their movements were precise and well thought out, commented Chris Keyes. The Junior Varisty game started out the even- ing with a roar! Warsaw Wildcats chewed up the Stover Bulldogs with a score of 76 to 22. . Next up were the Lady Wildcats. Sandy Parker led the girls with a record breaking score of thirty-nine points. The final outcome was in the Lady Cats favor with a score of 79 to 1 2. Finally, the varsity boys demonstrated excel- lence in their Homecoming game against Stover. Branden Boise had the top score of 21 points. Chris Thixton, senior, had a record breaking total of 26 rebounds along with 20 points. The final score was 74 to 47. The whole team was up for the game and I thought we all played hard and smart, stated Thixton. With a roaring crowd which filled the entire gymnasium the Wildcats were on a winning streak. Finally, it was time to call timeout from the Varsity Boys game to watch the Homecom- ing coronation. During halftime, two senior and two junior candidates were escorted across the basketball court to the stage. After standing on the stage for what seemed an eternity, Hansford Hair, master of ceremonies, announced Kris Nolle, senior, as the 1988 Basketball Homecom- ing Queen. He also announced Lenora Rether- ford, senior, as the Homecoming Princess. Other members of Nolte ' s court were Chris Thixton, Dustin Lear; both escorts of the senior can- didates Heather Lynch, junior candidate; Jeff Edge, escort; Kirsten Gott, junior candidate; Brian Grobe, escort; Brooke Foster, flower girl; Cody Flowers, crown bearer; Julie Flippin, 1987 Queen; and Jock Porter, escort. basketball , ' homecoming designed by kristen nolle The 1988 Basketball Homecoming court consis- ted of: senior.

Activities during the week of Football Homecoming had the halls jammin ' with excite- ment. Seniors won the spirit stick for their ban- ner, not just because it was the best but also be- cause it had class. The seniors had the theme, Kicking ' Irish On The Wild Side. Even the football game against Springfield Catholic started off extremely well as Doug Mor- iand scored the first touchdown of the game in the first few seconds. While the excitement about the mounting, the four Homecoming were nervously preparing for the which would take place at half-time, ing, but as they say, the show must go on! The four Football Homecoming candidates were Michelle McGhee, junior; Heather Perry, junior; Kristi Burkhart, senior; and Chelle Robbins, also a senior. At halftime they were all escorted onto the field. Chris Thixton announced that the Homecoming Princess was Michelle McGhee and the 1987 Football Homecoming Queen was Kristi Burkhart. As the game continued, Warsaw fell behind and lost with a score of 6-36. The night ended with a dance sponsored by the Warsaw High School Student Council, which was filled with lots of spirit and joy.

Due to teacher conferences the year- book staff had the school practically to themsel- ves to decorate. Working from the theme You Got the Look busy staff members hung streamers and bal- loons all morning in preparation for the event. A large mural featuring silhouettes of students was painted to hang behind the queen and her court. Other decorations included a setting for pictures in room one. The pictures of students were taken by Schlomer ' s of Sedalia. The dance began at eight o ' clock in the even- ing. Coronation of the queen occurred at nine. The freshman queen candidate was Stephanie Morland escorted by Eric Ramsey. The can- didate for the sophomroe class was Shelly Hut- ton escorted by Bill Hallack. Junior queen can- didate was Tracy Neeiey, who was escorted by Rusty Canister. The senior queen candidate was Tracy Grubb, who was escorted by Chris Thix- ton. Crowning the queen was yearbook editor, Laura Cadger, escorted by assistant editor, Scotty Burt. After much suspense and fanfare Tracy Grubb, senior, was crowned 1987 Ozark Echoes Queen. Tracy commented, I was very surprised and excited. Tracy ' s friend Kristen Nolte, senior, exclaimed, I was so excited when my friend Tracy won queen that I jumped up on the stage. Music for the dance was provided by Lane and Dave from Windsor. Michelle McGhee, junior, staled, I thought the dance contest was fun and I especially enjoyed dancing with Chris Thixton! So ended another exciting Ozark Echoes Ball. Tracy Grubb, senior, happily reigns as tine 1987 Ozork Echoes Queen with her court Tracy Neeiey, junior.

The night Michelle and Shawn were crowned the 1988 FHA Queen and King. Wearing formal or semiformal clothing the students of WHS attended the annual FHA dance beginning at 8:00 p.m. The night ' s enter- tainment was provided by John Olsen, a disc jockey from KY-102. Lara Cadger, senior, said, It was a lot more fun than I expected and the music was really good. Chris Thixton, senior, was the master of ceremonies. He announced the queen and king candidates as they proudly walked through the crowds of people. The court coi.-.isted of eighth grade can- didates, Lori Kirby escorted by king candidate Shawn Grubb; freshman Stacy Clubine escorted by David Kellner; sophomore, Jacqueline Kellner escorted by Greg Lutman; juniors, Michelle Wal- lace escorted by king candidate J.B. Woods; senior. Missy Hudgens escorted by Ben Rhodes. The presiding queen and king of the 1987- FHA dance, Stacy Taylor, sophomore and Jim Murphy, graduate. The flower girl was Jamie Wallace and crown septor bearer, Dustin Boyer. Coronation ended by the announcement of the queen and king. Michelle Wallace, junior, stated, I was surprised and most of all shocked. I was happy to win and I really had a lot of fun. I know this is something I will always remember. FHA awarded $20 to the best dressed couple. The winners were Jacque Kellenr and Greg Lutman, dressed in black and white. The evening went on with refreshments ser- ved by mothers who had volunteered to serve the dancers while they took a break. According to the officers of FHA, the dance was a big success.

These practices were used for learning lines, movements, and getting acquainted with one ' s character. Heather Perry, junior, said, I felt that the play was performed very well, be- cause the actors and actresses con- tributed 100 percent to make the play successful. Finally, on April 16, the cast was ready to perform. Excitement and nervousness filled the dressing room as everyone put their make-up and costumes on. For some people, Our Town , was the first play that they had ever been in. Putting on so much make-up, especially for the guys was a new experience. Bobby Hart, freshman, said, I really didn ' t like putting on the make-up or wearing it either one. It took too long to do and it made my face feel stiff. I really don ' t see how girls can do that every morning. At 7:30 the lights went down and the play began. Fortunately, everyone remembered their lines, and from the feedback of the crowd, the play seemed to be well enjoyed. Tickets were sold out Friday and Saturday nights, and extra seats had to be brought in. The cast consisted of; Brad Campbell, Stage r ianager; fvlichelle f lcGhee, Emily Webb; Bobby Hart, George Gibbs; Hansford Hair, Dr. Gibbs; Heather Perry, IVIrs.

The students actually seemed to have been enjoying themselves. It wasn ' t a day like any other; it was Activity Day. Once a month (usually the second Thursday) certain hours of the day were set aside for students to join together and participate in ac- tivities they specialized in. Warsaw High School supported approximately twenty different fun-filled extra curricular or- ganizations in the 1987-1988 school year. Ac- tivities ranged from riding the high waves to the North Fork River with Science Club to acting in the famous dinner theatre Soap Opera . I liked FHA because it was interesting and I learned a lot said Melissa Lee, freshman. Tracy Martin, junior, commented, I ' m involved in four different organizations. National Honor Society is my favorite because it makes me feel honored and proud; like I ' ve achieved something for myself. I think Pep Club is my favorite organization, stated Wayne Jackson, senior, because you get a chance to support games and it helps bring together school spirit. Heather Perry, junior, said, I like Drill Team the best because it ' s a small organization. With this size of a group it is easier to become good friends with each member. Mr. Seo onjoys his dinner after a rough ride on the North Fork River with Science Club. Photo by Kara Hash Don ' t stop until you get it right Ok! Are we all ready? One, two... Wait! Get her down! She ' s killing my wrist! This is what one would have heard had one attended a practice when the 1987-88 Varsity cheerleaders were learning how to do the basket toss. Get- ting this stunt perfected was far from easy, but the girls seemed to perform it pretty well. Practice began in the summer with camp for Heather Lynch, as the guinea pig. Captain, Michelle McGhee, and last year ' s co-captain, Michelle Gillman were throwing Lynch. The power exerted from Gillman was quite a bit more than that from McGhee and Lynch ended up flying over McGhee ' s head and crashing to the floor with a broken wrist. Lynch said, I probably should have asked them if they knew how to catch before I let them throw me in the air. But, nevertheless they came home from camp with two blue ribbons, three red ribbons, and a spirit stick. While at camp, they learned new partner stunts, jumps, and floor and crowd cheers. Missy Hudgens, senior, said, Camp was a lot of hard work, but I think we learned quite a bit and we got a chance to brush up on a lot of rough spots. The cheerleaders performed their basketball homecoming routine to Bad by Michael Jackson. They incorporated more cheerleader stunts into their per- formance instead of regular dance moves. Since cheerleading was declared a national sport this year, the girls officially earned a varsity letter.

Ph. to by Kara Hash Younger squad shows promise Though one might not have suspec- ted it, cheerleading turned out to be much more work than most people, who aren ' t involved with the sport, realized. There actually is no season tor the cheerleaders, tor they are kept busy all year round practicing, even through the entire summer, to perfect cheers and routines for all of the sports events. Unlike any other sport, cheerleading is a year-round sport, commented Kim Gillman, freshman and co-captain. Beginning in April with try-outs, the long year got off to a good start with the usual large turnout for the required prac- tices. The 17 best were chosen for the varsity and junior varsity squads. The two squads traveled to Sf y!SU for a week of camp in August. The junior varsity received several red and blue ribbons and two spirit sticks throughout the tedious week. The squad survived the season with only one injury-Cinda Findley, freshman, hyper-extended her elbow a few days before camp. As a result, Findley was out for several weeks. During basketball season, they per- formed a dance routine to What ' s He Got , and for homecoming they teamed up with the varsity squad for one big Up With the Wildcat Pride formation. Cheerleading has been recognized as an official sport by the MSHSAA, (Mis- souri State High School Activities As- sociation), but was seldom treated as one by many, for few realized the time, dedication, and just plain hard work that this activity required. To the cheerleaders, cheering was more than just a pasttime. The cheerleaders were grateful when their hard work was praised by spectators, but occasionally snide comments were overhead. Being a part of the younger squad, the junior varsity withstood many of these remarks. Cheerleading is just as much work as any other sport, stated Amy Potter, sophomore. We have to work just as hard and practice just as much. If it were to be defined, a junior var- sity team squad might have sounded something like: A junior varsity sports team is just as the name suggests-a JUNIOR varsity- training for varsity. A junior varsity team seemingly ' stands in the shadow ' of the varsity. A younger team may work har- der to receive the recognition they feel they deserve, but they are still regarded as the underdog. Missy Hudgens, senior, a member of the 87-88 varsity cheerleading squad, and former junior varsity cheerleader stated, it ' s really hard being on a J.V. team in anything you do, because people just don ' t get involved in J.V. sports. Varsity sports seem to be high- lighted much more which, really isn ' t fair. But the members of the 1987-88 junior varsity cheerleading squad ac- quired what it took to work together to be a success. Varsity works hard. They ' re older, and should get the most recognition. But I feel that this year ' s J.V. squad has worked very hard and we should be recognized too, remarked Amy Fisher, sophomore and co-captain. — il H 24 J.V. cheerleading designed by heather lynch J.V.

Right foot first then left hand out. Get it together girls. These were just a few of the lines that were heard through out the year by the drill team. Drill teann consisted of a six girl squad: Angle Young, senior, Kris Nolte, senior, Tracy Grubb, senior, Lenora Retherford, senior. Heather Perry, junior, and Shelly Hutton, sophomore The girls all worked hard to make their performances shine. Practices ranged anywhere from early mornings to late nights. The six girls worked good together and had many fun times. To start the drill team season off the six girls went to camp at Maryvilie. The girls learned many new dance steps and flag routines. These steps and routines were used in making up new dances and flag routines to perform at football and bas- ketball games. The routines were also used at assemblies. The drill team worked hard, had fun, and showed their school spirit through out the year. Kris Nolte stated, We were a great drill team who got along good and had a lot of fun, and the times we did have our differences we worked them out. Tracy Grubb stated, Drill team was very fun, exciting, nerve racking, and a lot of hard work, but I loved it. Lenora Retherford remarked, It was so much fun. Especially at camp with the twice sisters and the crazy times we had. Shelly Hutton stated, I had a blast. The thing I miss most is the seniors. We, had a great year.

Photo by Branden Boise And they sang, and they sang The 1987-88 Warsaw High School Choir experienced a choral season of many interesting and fun events. Not all of their performances were perfect. At first they experienced a few ups and downs, but later on things started com- ing together for them. First the group began to prepare for their first performance, the fall concert, which was in November. Next, came practice for the Christmas concert in December. Also in December, all choir, band, and madrigal members, that wan- ted to, got a chance to go see the St. Louis Symphony at Powell Hall in St. Louis. Next, came the Warsaw High School Variety Show ' 88 in which the choir was scheduled to do a song and dance. The variety show date was scheduled for January 31. Unfortunately that was the same day as the Super Bowl, so the date was changed to February 7. During the week before the show school was cancelled two days because of snow, and one of those days was the dress rehearsal day for all the acts that were scheduled to be in the variety show. Since the choir had such a lack of time to practice their song and dance before the show and the acts had not had a chance to rehearse together, the show was cancelled permanently. The choir ' s most important perfor- mances probably came when they ven- tured to the Conference Music Contest in Osage where they received a three rating and the District Music Contest in Warrensburg at CMSU where they received a two rating. At both contests the choir was met with the challenge of singing their songs a capella (without accompaniment) for the judge. The final performance for the choir was the spring concert in May. They had practiced their numbers since April and this was the last step of their year of hard work and practice. One number done by the choir was their song and dance that had originally been scheduled for the variety show. Through the year the choir en- countered a few rough spots here and there. Some of their performances weren ' t up to standards. Senior Ben Rhodes stated, We haven ' t been per- forming up to our ability this year. Sometimes they had a hard time get- ting it together. Other times it was just a lack of cooperation with the conductor Mrs. Candace Anderson. For some members it was their first year in choir and for others it was their third, fourth, or fifth. Hopefully those who were in their first or even their fifth learned something from all the musical events and enjoyed the experience. Mrs. Anderson commented, ' The choir has great potential, but there is a lack of attitude. They need to under- stand that music is not only a creative art, but a discqsffned academic. ,yM- ' Sophomores, Sherri Miller and Mindy Massey and freshmen Trinka Day lead the soprano section in the 1950 ' s hit At the hop Photo by Branden Boise Choir Sophomore.

These entertainers first presented themselves at the fall concert with their opening number You. A Chamber Choir is best know for singing and dancing with partners. The twelve performers would leave their audience in awe after demonstrating great talents in song and partner stunts. To be an elite group, the Madrigal had to be devoted to music. Besides strong voices, each member had another uni- que talent which added to perfection. The chamber choir consisted of in- strumentalists, dancers, and actors. The members were Fred Allen, senior; David Fajen, junior; Deanna Gemes, sophomore; Bobby Hart, freshman; Mike Higgins, senior; Loree Johnson, senior; Michelle McGhee, junior; Kris Nolte, senior; Lenora Retherford, senior; Ben Rhodes, senior; Jock Porter, junior; and Leanne Thixton, freshman. The Madrigal singers performed such numbers as; You , Lift You Up , One Voice , Will You Still Love Me , Leg- giadre Ninfe , Whole Lot of Shakin ' Going On , and A Golden Dream. The Chamber Choir was not just of performers but a family working to be the best. Loree Johnson stated, I am glad that I was a member of Madrigal. Sometimes we didn ' t always get along but we were all friends and we enjoyed singing together. I enjoyed being a member of Mad- rigal because I love to sing and I liked the fact that we sang different varieties of music, said Fred Allen, senior. The 1988 Madrigal Singers consisted of: (Ironl, loft) Deanna Gemes, sophomore.

It wasn ' t the same type of learning that one could achieve through, say, algebra or history. For the most part, band students learned the real life routine of setting a commitment. Though some commitments weren ' t as high as others, most people in band had one. Some students set the com- mitment of giving up five Fridays during football season to march in the halftime show. This also involved many cold mornings on the football field to master all of the marching formations and tech- niques. I issy Hudgens, senior, said, This year ' s band is really good, we could al- ways stand improvement, I think we ' ll do really well at contest. Some students went beyond being members of their own band to play in several bands with excellent band students from other schools. Stephani Linville, sophomore; David Johns, freshman; Clay Gilbert, junior; Mary Crabtree, sophomore; and Deanna Gemes, sophomore were an example of this, who all attended the S.B.U. Honors Band in Bolivar. Fred Allen, senior and Jason Gronewold, junior both played in the All-District Jazz Band. Gronewold also made the All-District Concert Band and played in the All-State Jazz Band, a band in which Allen was pianist for the previous year and this year was the runner-up. Allen and Gronewold also played in the CMSU Jazz Festival and both received outstanding solo awards. The band also held a pie auction in the cafeteria as a money-making project. It was a potluck dinner before the auction, followed by a concert by the band. The band performed selections which they performed at contest. Overall, the band improved as a whole. Much of this had to do with commitments students made. Nancy Stone, senior, said, 1 think a lot of in- dividuals in the band have made a lot of progress this year, as well as the entire band. The best thing about this being my last year of band is being able to march to ' Pomp and Circumstance ' in- stead of playing it. Cat memb«r include, freshman. Bobby senior.

Editor in chief, Shir! Taylor, senior, was the only returning member of the staff so remaining positions had to be filled by inexperienced juniors and even sophomores. Somehow these underclassmen rose to the occasion and filled positions held previously by seniors. Dale Johnson, junior, wrote the sports column, Jock Talk and April Walkins, sophomore, tickled everyone ' s funny bone with her humor column, In all seriousness. Although the staff was inexperienced, they managed to capture the sweepstakes award at the Central Mis- souri Journalism Educator ' s Association journalism contest October 21 . Individual awards went to Dale Johnson, first place sports writing; Wayne Jackson, first place news photography; April Watkins, second place newspaper layout; Brian Grobe, second place newswriting; Julie David- son, third place feature writing; and Kara Hash, third place sports photography.

This time, there are NO excuses! yelled Laura Cadger, editor. The yearbook class iritated the editor by never starting their layout until a few days before they were due. In the meantime, they mutilated ears and noses, decapitated innocent children- and split enough glue to kill ten horses, but they somehow managed to finish the 1987-88 Ozark Echoes Yearbook. This has been the most unusual group. They range from extremely talen- ted to mundain, exclaimed Mrs. Campbell, Although the yearbook students mes- sed around a lot, they did attend classes at Missouri Valley and Central Missouri State University. At these classes, the studetV.s learned ways to make the yearbook as interesting as possible. They learned the -skills of drawing layouts, writing copy, and the correct ways of gluing on pictures. The main problem in yearbook could have been that everyone in the class is friends. Instead of working on their layouts they sat around and talked about the latest gossip going around the school. The best thing about yearbook was having one class with all my friends in it, stated Lenora Retherford, senior. Another problem could have been that many took this class as a rest point of the day. They thought they could lounge around without getting caught. But little did they know that Laura Cadger and Mrs. Campbell were watching. This class breaks the monotony of the day, said Cori Cutler, junior. The Yearbook Staff, consisting of Chrsitina Hdugens. Ctielle [bobbins. Missy Hudgens. Dina Tiirashier, Michelle l lcGhee.

Sud- denly, at 7:50 a.m., students began to arrive. These students weren ' t arriving to study for Chemistry or Trigonometry. They came for their weekly Student Council meeting. Members of Student Council are presidents and represen- tatives of classes and organizations. At 8:00 a.m., give or take a few minutes, Lenora Retherford, president, would call the meeting to order. Fred Al- len, secretary-treasurer, would take at- tendance. Next Scotty Burt, vice presi- dent, would make one of his smart remarks which Phillip Kreisler, reporter, would always find amusing. Then everyone got down to business. One of the main reasons for this or- ganization was to improve the school and make it a better learning atmos- phere. Topics that were brought out at meetings ranged from improvements in the school ' s facilities to planning Bas- ketball Homecoming. One of the im- provements which was made in the school was the purchase of a set of speakers for use in the gymnasium. The meetings would then adjourn and students would go to their first hour class. Many other things were accomplished in this organization this past year. The first order of business that faced the newly elected president was the eighth grade class elections. Also the president had to read the announcements over the intercom everyday. Everyone seemed to find this task an amusing form of entertainment. W-W-Well, I, I, can ' t really say that they are amusing, b- b-but... remarked Heather Lynch, junior. Kristi Burkhart, senior, a close friend of the accused stated, The funniest thing that happens when Lenora reads the announcements is that she talks too fast. Oh well, nobody ' s perfect! Student Council also successfully planned Football and Basketball Homecoming. To celebrate Christmas, an assembly was planned. A raffle was also held, the prizes of which included a Mr. Potato Head and an inflatable dinosaur. All these things added together made up the secret for the suc- cess of the Warsaw High School Stu- dent Council.

They were given a list of those students with the required grade point average or better. These students were then evaluated on character, attitude, and service. For example; the teacher would evaluate the student on the student ' s commitment to clubs and or- ganizations that they might have been involved in, their attitude towards school and teachers, and their ability to get along well with other people. The required grade point average varied from school to school. Some schools required a 3.5, while Warsaw High School only required a 3.0. With the many organizations that students were involved in, it was sometimes difficult to maintain a 3.0 average. Kris Nolle, senior, who was involved in drill team. Pep Club, softball, year- book, Madrigal, choir council, and cur- rently employed at G W Foods, said, I give up free time to do my school work.

The advisor of FHA was Mrs. Roberta Schnakenberg. Th e officers of 1987-88 were president, Stacy Taylor; vice presi- dent, Chelie Robbins; secretary. Crystal Coffey; treasurer, Phylllis Hank; reporter, Missy Hudgens; parliamentarian, Becky Maddux; historian, Hope Hardman; and recreational devotional leader, Gina Crabtree. Jacque Kellner, sophomore and member, said, I like FHA because it is helping me decide what I want to be- come. The organization gave away clothes and food to the underprivileged children eof Benton County, and sponsored a dance. They also educated preschoolers on automboile safety. This was the begin- ning of the Buckle Hug Bear. J.B. Woods, junior and male member, stated, I like FHA because we help out the community and I like to help other people. Another important program was Star Events. Juniors, Phyllis Hank and Shannon Palmer attended Star Events at Central Missouri State University on March 23, 1988. The competitive event Students Taking Action for Recognition - was directed at the dis trict level by the chair of the Home Economics Depart- ment at CMSU, Dr. Carl Hall. Each per- son or team who entered an event was presented a one, two, or three star award. Hank and Palmer were awarded first place in the family communication entry. Since they won first place they were eligible to participate at the state level, June 1, during the State FHA HERO leaderhsip conference at the University of Missouri-Columbia. 42 f.h.a. designed by stacy taylor Row 1: Shannon Palmer, Phyllis Hank, Missy Hudgens, Hope Hardman, Chelie Robbins, Stacy Taylor, Becky Maddux, Gina findley, Raymond Baraks.

Excitement filled the 19 year old stage of Warsaw High School as some of our most talen- ted students presented the first annual dinner theatre show, Soap Opera on November 20, 1987. Heather Perry, junior, (Jenny Reeves), stated, Soap Opera was a very enjoyable play to per- form. The small cast enabled us to use our time wisely and organize details more thoroughly. Michelle McGhee said: I had a great time acting in Soap Opera. Everyone worked really well together and we had a lot of fun performing it at contest. We were a little scared that we weren ' t going to be able to perform it because Hansford Hair and Mike Higgins didn ' t show up until five minutes before we were ready to perform. Mr. Hickey was frantically pacing the building like a mad man. Now that I look back on it, it was actually quite funny. WHS also had a very successful speech squad to be proud of. Twelve determined students participated in a total of seven speech contests. Each came back with either a medal or a place in the finals. Those involved with the speech squad were; Brad Campbell, freshman; Andy Taylor, freshman; Heidi Rehagen, sophomore; Kim Gillman, freshman; Amy Fisher, sophomore; Hansford Hair, senior; April Wadkins, sophomore; Mike Higgins, senior; Stephani Linville, sophomore; Joe Bogart, freshman; and Crystal Coffey, junior. Pep Club started the school year off with a roar. Wayne Jackson commented, Participation was better this year, at least for the girls sports. There was more fan participation at tournaments. Kris Nolle, senior, stated, Pep club is a group of spirited students who back their team with all their pride. Eric Flores, eighth grade, said, I liked to ride Pep Club busses because I could be with all my friends and make more friends with the upperclassmen.

Fred Jammes, Dustin Smith, Christina Fugcrte, Scientists strive for adventure Science club offered much excitement and adventure for cavers and cancers. This year ' s science club, which was led by Steve Intelmann, president, ventured on two cave trips and two canoe trips. The first trip of the season was a cave trip to Buschwacker Cave. Ap- proximately 12 to 15 members voyaged on this journey. Getting lost in the cave became a problem for a group of fierce cavers which were led by Hansford Hair. Scotty Burt said, ' The trip was a lot of fun aside the fact that Indiana Jones A.K.A. Hansford Hair got us lost in the cave. There were; however, a group of cavers who chose not to follow in Hansford ' s lead and made it through the cave with very little problems. Dustin Lear said, I was the only one in the cave that knew where I was going. The Science club went on a similar cave trip to Skag ' s Cave. Not only is the club for cavers but cancers also enjoyed science club. A canoe trip down the Northfork River was also taken. This trip was filled with excitement and disaster. Once the cancers made it to their destination and got off the bus things started to go wrong. The canoe which belonged to David James and Mark Smith bent and was ruined. After the canoers made it safely out of the water and returned to the bus it was discovered that everything Kirsten and Gina had with them was stolen. To a girl getting her purse stolen is one of the worst things that can possibly happen. This was not the end of the tragedy for the two girls. In the middle of the night Gina felt ill and regurgated in the tent. Many people thought this was quite fun- ny; however to Gina it was very unc- omfortable. For the great explorer, Hansford Hair, this trip was more on the fun side of life. Hansford Hair received a chance to light M-70S and throw them in the water. Mr. See gave Hair two booby traps for his birthday. Most of the group as a whole enjoyed the trip. It was fun until Gina got sick In the tent, but she didn ' t make a very big mess so it didn ' t take long to clean up. It was a nice bus ride home, said Rhonda Johnson. m ' h- Senior, Rhonda Johnson, glances back as the other Science Club members yell. Wait for us!

W4n or lose, each team shared every defeat or victory. Many W.H.S. sports teams competed very well in big games. The varsity football team improved their record to three wins and seven los- ses, including a victory to Blair Oaks. They shared each victory, going out and celebrating together. Boys and girls basketball teams played well together as well as in- dividuals. Kristi Burkhart and Sandy Parker made First Team All-Conference, while Angie Young and the other five received honorable mention. Kristi Burkhart and Parker made all-area team, and Stephanie Morland was the runner-up. She also made First Team Tri-County All-Conference along with Parker and Burkhart. To top it all off, Parker made First Team All-District. Chhs Thixton and Branden Boise v ere both chosen to the Kaysinger All- Conference team. Thixton was also All- Area pick, as Boise was honorable men- tion. Both basketball teams also did a fine job in district, playoffs. Many of the games were exciting and most were vic- tohous.

Despite the problems there were with the many injuries, the Wildcats still stuck together and showed some real poten- tial. The season went out with a bang. The last two games were played well and resulted in vic- tories. The Wildcat squad played many tough teams. Most of the teams were ranked as state teams. That didn ' t seem to intimidate them, they still went into the games playing the best they could. Many players shined throughout these tough games. Honors were received by: Lance Ramsey first team Defensive Back, Dwayne Davis first team Linebacker and second team Running Back, Bill Hallack received Honorable Mention for Linebacker, Doug Morland received Honorable Mention for Punter, and Mike Gemes received first team Offensive Line and second team Defensive Line. tl U I- ■■ ■ -I ■ -, - • ' •i ■•-: sa • T ?8 Sl - S ' n tS Seniors Kevin Byrd and Jim Mick attempt to block against the Kemper Military players.

Hardly what most would consider an act of a volleyball player, but leave it to WHS players to shoot for the unusual. A six-pack was given to the player who, while spiking the ball hit another player on the head. This may seem like a difficult feat, but for two hard working players, the six-pack was an ac- complished goal. The girls who received this honor were Stephani Morland, freshman, and Mindi Massey, sophomore, each girl receiving two six-packs each. The year ended with a record of 5 wins, 14 losses, 2 ties, and third place in the Cole Camp Invitational Tournament. Jenny Guerrero, senior, received Most Im- proved Player, Mindi Massey , sophomore, received the hustle award, Stephani Morland, ' freshman, was voted Most Valuable Player, Kaysinger Conference volleyball players were Morland, first team, Massey, second team. In Tri-County action, Massy received first team honors and Morland received honorable men- tion. The Varsity volleyball ' s record might not have been as impressive as others, but experience was not on their side. With three seniors and no juniors, the team was made up of mostly fresh- men and sophomores. Our senior leadership ' will be greatly missed, but with our team being primarily comprised of sophomores this year, I look for some very excit- ing things to happen next year. These young ladies learned a great deal about what it will take to become a successful team. I believe they have the desire to do what is necessary to be- come that successful team, stated Coach Peggy Gilmore. Keeping this in mind, and remembering they were up against teams twice their size, when the team went down, they went down fighitng until the end. Spirits were always high in win or loss. The Varsity volleyball team proved that even fresh- men and sophomores can compete and win.

For the boys, they had a record of thirteen wins and four losses. Freshman Cori Henderson for the J.V. girls said, I thought we had a really good record and year. I thought Mr. Dixon was really patient during the whole season, which helped the team as a whole. Freshman, Leanne Thixton for the J.V. girls commented, Even though we were mostly freshmen with about three sophomores we did an excellent job. We worked together to win and succeeded! Mr. Dixon worked a lot with the Var- sity, but still took time out to work with the J.V. too. It paid off! I really think we had a successful year, we learned a lot and played really well together, and I think that this year will reflect on next year, said freshman, Eric Ramsey for the J.V. boys. Sophomore Greg Lutman for the J.V. boys stated, I think our team held together and worked together great, and that brought us a good record this year. Both teams had a winning record, and the members of both boys and girls J.V. are ready to have another winning record next year.

Winning year for varsity A winning season dominated the minds of the 87-88 varsity boys ' basketball team. Their over all record was 17-10. The games consisted of six home games and eleven away games. They played seven teams that were in the league and ten non-league teams. Defeating Climax Springs, Osceola, and fvlontrose led the Wildcats to win the Osceola tournament. This has been my most enjoyable year at coaching in the six years I have been a head coach. This group of players worked very hard both in season and out of season. As a group they are also very intelligent and receptive to learning the game. They achieved most of our goals for the 1987-88 season, and I am looking forward to the 1988-89 season, commented Coach Loren Burke. Junior Chad Eutsler stated, I feel that what I accomplished is I think I improved in many areas that will help me to be a better basketball player next year. Chris Thixton commented about the overall season, I was pretty proud of our season. We lost some close heartbreakers that would have made our record look better, but it (the season record) was the second best that Warsaw has had in the last fifteen years. People looked at us at the beginning of the season and didn ' t know what to expect, but our team played ball like we were capable of, and we put together a winner, Senior, Chris Thixton received many honors and awards. Some of the awards were First team all district, Kaysinger All Conference, Most Valuable Player-Tri County Conference, and the Truman Lake Most Valuable Player. Junior, Branden Boise also received some honors and awards. They included, the Tri-County con- ference honorable mention. Many of the team players felt they had a suc- cessful season, and those who will be on it next year are ready to improve and make another ouislanding winning season.

A foul is called and Mor- land walks to the free throw line to shoot two free throws. If Stephanie makes these free throws there ' s no way Versailles can catch up in eight seconds. Stephanie shoots the first one and it rolls in. The second one is shot and it ' s all net, which puts Warsaw to a four point lead and the game ends with the score of 49-45. They said it couldn ' t be done. No one believed that the Wildcat Varsity girls could equal the record of the 1986-1987 squad of 23 wins and only 4 losses but they did. Seniors Kristi Burkhart and Angle Young along with junior, Sandy Parker, sophomore, Mindi Massey and freshman, Stephanie Morland were able to adequately fill the void left by the depar- ture of the past senior dominated club. A strong bench including senior, Rhonda Johnson (the enforcer) and Leanne Thixton, freshman, backed up the starting five in many tough situations. The team as a whole won the Kaysinger Con- ference championship for the first time ever! In- dividuals Kristi Burkhart and Sandy Parker broke many of the records which had been set in past seasons. Kristi Burkhart broke Jackie Downing ' s old free throw record by 2 points by scoring 11 free throws in the Osceola Tournament and in that same night broke the record of the most points scored in one game by scoring 41 points. Sandy Parker had an outstanding season by scoring over 500 points to break the season point record. There were four tournaments that the Lady Wildcats participated in the past season. The team placed first in two of them, the Kaysinger Conference Tournament and the Lincoln Girls ' Tournament. In the Osceola Tournament the varsity girls placed second and Sandy Parker, Kristi Burkhart and Stephanie Morla.nd all received medals for outstanding performances. Sandy Parker received first team all conference, MVP Tri-County, first team all area, and also first team in districts. Kristi Burkhart, senior, earned first team all conference, Tri-County, and all area. Angle Young, senior, was named honorable mention Tri-County. Stephanie Morland received first team Tri-County, honorable mention all area, and newcomer of the year.

The green and black hardballers ended the year with a slightly un- balanced 7-8 record, but racked in several in- dividual honors. The All-Conference picks included, first team: Brian Grobe, pitcher; Dwayne Davis and Willard Palmer, players; and second team, Jamie Lux, player. There were also some honors that were voted on by the team, and announced at the Spring Athletic Banquet. For the 1988 season, Larry Jones and Branden Boise were chosen as the year ' s offensive players, while Jamie Lux was voted to the defensive side. Willard Palmer, who played catcher for the Cats, received the Most Valuable Player title. Finally, Dwayne Davis received male athlete of the year.

The season started out excellent with 5 wins losses until the game against Smith Cotton from then on it went down hill. The starters for the Varsity squad were as fol- lows: seniors Kristi Burkhart, and Carisa Proctor, juniors Sandy Parker, and Shannon Palmer, sophomores, Shelly Hutton, and Vanessa Johnson, freshmen Stephanie Morland, Leanne Thixton, and Jennifer Henderson. The honors this year were awarded to Kristi Burkhart and Sandy Parker. Kristi Burkhart received first team all conference, and also MVP of the Softball team. Sandy Parker was chosen for first team all conference. Carisa Proctor senior said, This year ' s Softball season was basically very disappointing for me. Although the young girls did very well and gained a lot of experience, the older players didn ' t come through when we needed to. Coree Cutler, junior said, This season was pretty disappointing. I felt we really weren ' t prepared this year. We had a good team, but just couldn ' t get our stuff together. Kristi Burkhart senior said, Softball did have a disappointing end this season. Everybody just lost their confidence and gave up. I guess I was just hoping my last season would be better! There was a lot of experience gained by the younger play ers. And because of seven return- ing starters the years to come show lots of promise.

In girls ' varsity track Bonnie Dickey broke one school record. In the 100 meter dash Dickey es- tablished a record of 12.89 seconds. This beat 1982 Chantel Johnson ' s record of 12.9. Dickey also set a school record in the 300 meter low hurdles with a time of 49.19 seconds. I was about ready to give up on the 100 because I could never get under thirteen. I finally did, though, commented Dickey. Mindy Massey beat 1980 graduate Chris Eh- ler ' s record height in the high jump of four feet ten inches with a height of five feet even. Mas- sey stated, I ' ve had this goal for the past two seasons to break the high jump record, and I finally did it. Kristi Burkhart broke the record in the 1600 meter run with a time of five minutes fifty-nine seconds. This beat 1986 graduate Dovetta Bon- ner ' s record of six minutes and seventeen point eight seconds. In boys ' varsity track one record was broken in the pole vault.

To qualify for the advanced diploma, a student had to take four credits of English, two credits of science, three credits of social studies, three credits of mathematics, one credit of computer programming, one credit of fine arts, one credit of practical art, and two credits of foreign language. One conflict occurred first hour. During this hour Chemistry, vocabulary, computer program- ming, and varsity sports were offered. These four classes were a need for many and were of- fered only this hour. The varsity girls basketball players had to give up the three academic clas- ses to be able to play ball. For many juniors and seniors, being their last years of high school, these classes were a must and the choices that they had to make were difficult ones. Because problems like these arise, WHS of- fered other alternatives to be eligible for the ad- vanced diploma. For a student who was uanbie to fit a foreign language into his schedule, his parents could write a letter of appeal to excuse him from taking the class. With computer programming being the same hour as varsity sports the basketball girls were able to take in- troduction to computers with an appeal. If any other conflicts came about ihe student could try to find a solution with the counselor. Jock Porter, junior, sVV sticks his cheat sheet to the bookcase in history class.

Photo bv Kara Hash Warsaw High School offered two different diplomas to its graduates. A student had the choice to Go for the gold, and work for an advanced diploma, or to work for a general diploma. To receive an advanced diploma, students were required to earn a certain number of credits in various subjects, 24 credits in all. In order to receive a credit, the student must have made a passing grade both semesters in the class. One of these solids, English, offered a variety of different classes beyond the regular freshman English I, taught by Mr. Darrell Schuiz, English II in- structed by Mrs. Anita Campbell at the sophomore level, and English III in which most juniors were enrolled, taught by Campbell and Mr. Paul Hickey, who also instructed eighth grade English. The classes ranged from the basic English and Practical You ' re loking, nghf Tracy Mortin. junior, ner- vously laughs os Mr Schuiz descnpes the next dov ' s vocaCulory test.

Many schools did not have the system of offering an ad- vanced or general diploma. Junior, Cori Cutler was work- ing toward the advanced diploma. It gives you a better advantage of getting into a col- lege you want, stated Cutler. Senior, Hope Hardman, however, planned to receive a general diploma. I plan on going to a trade school, not a college, said Hardman. She planned on a career in interior design. No matter whether a student planned for an advanced or a general diploma, English was an important subject for all career purposes.

Jamie Lux looks for material wfiile tiis classmates Lara Cadger and Shirt Taylor pretend to help. Photo by Kara Hash ' Schulz ' s scavengers The Rhetorical Writing class occupied one week of their year with what Mr. Darrell Schulz called Ubrary Scavenger Hunts. In this activity, the students were given various questions such as the author of a certain story or novel, the ar- tist of a painting or song, or quotes from a book. They then had to use the library ' s many sources in search of the correct answer. Each student was part of a five mem- ber team working together to accumu- late as many points as they could within the hour. According to Schulz, good team organization and familiarity with the library ' s resources made for a suc- cessful team. This particular project was used by Schulz as an introductory unit to the dreaded research papers. While working on the questions, the students were not only learning to use the library ' s resources better, using in- formation to develop and explore a par- ticular research topic, and present that topic in correct fonn, but they were also furthering their knowledge on different subjects. Being able to use the library ' s resources well is one of the best skills for college-bound students to develop, stated Schulz. Lenora Retherford said, Our team captain, Chris Thixton is mthless-he causes his team to do all kinds of un- scnjpulous things to find the trivial items before the hour is up. Mrs. Lee simply described it as, Fan- tastic! I love it! 69 EXPLANATIONS Students get involved in science for a reason Many decided world of part of riculum. students at WHS to explore the vast science by making it their every-day cur- Upon doing this, though, many of their comrades asked them the simple question, why do you want to take a science class? Well, there are several answers to that one question. For instance, some students, mainly eighth grade and fresh- men, took science courses such as earth science and physical science because they are the basic, required classes. Directly related to the previous is that some students must have a cer- tain number of science credits to get their diploma and graduate. Others, though, took such courses to help them, for the fu- ture and any college science courses they may take. Junior, Michelle McGhee stated, I took chemistry be- cause I thought colleges would look on my transcript to see if took hard classes and if I did good in them. I thought taking a science class like chemistry would help me on the ACT, commented junior, Tracy Martin. Also, looking not too far ahead, these studies may prime students for the career that they plan to devote themselves to later in life. Lance Ramsey, senior and physics student, said, I ' m taking science classes because I plan on majoring in science in college and becoming a science instructor. Also, I like it. Lastly, there are those who took science courses merely because they enjoyed studying and learning that field of educa- tion. I took science classes be- cause they were interesting and different, commented senior, Kara Hash. 7IJ science m%M designed by scotty hurt Phyllis Har.k, junior, carefully measures out the chiemicals for tier chemistry lab.

Photo by Kara Hash Study of importance Dissection: ' ' To cut so as to separate into pieces or to expose ttie several parts and their locations and connec- tions especially with precision and deft- ness for scientific examination. To divide and separate into different phases, items, or parts to examine, in- terpret, or evaluate minutely. Whatever the definition, though, dis- section has been an important part of the classroom activities in Biology II for the past ten years. Over the years Biology II students have had the pleasure of studying the anatomies of such animals as the sponge, clam, grasshopper, starfish, round worm, flat worm, pig and cat. The purpose of dissection is to show the students the comparative anatomies of such animals. Mr. Don Dixon, the Biology II instruc- tor, stated, We start with the simple in- vertabrates, such as the sponge, and work our way to the more complex ver- tabrates, such as the cat. I like dissecting the animals, and I ' m not afraid to either; however, I don ' t like to get the stuff from them on my hands, commented, sophomore, Tina Thomas. Biology II, in some respects, is a col- lege preparatory course to help get students ready for college laboratories. The times in which Biology II pupils dis- sected the named animals, also, prepared them for the final lab test at the end of the semester. Junior, Rusty Callister said, I think this course, and the test that we take, will greatly prepare me for college biology. CLASSICAL Maruszak makes history a musical experience Everything was removed from each students desk except for some form of writing utensil. Silence spreads across the room as the papers were han- ded out. The teacher slowly walked back to his desk and reminded everyone to stay quiet and to keep their eyes on their own paper. And then. ..the music began. What happened? It ' s one of Mr. Maruszak ' s history classes getting ready to take a test. But why music? Well, it was not Q104 or ACDC that was being played, but instead it was a tape of one of the many great com- posers of the Renaissance Era. Mr. Maruszak played the music to try to relax the student while he or she was thinking. Stephanie Linville, sophomore, said, It ' s soothing and it calms me down. It ' s soothing and it calms me down. It But for every issue there was always going to be a difference of opinion.

Ptioto by Noncv Stone History is their future Often students considered history class boring and monotonous, but for a few WHS students this class was the key to their future. Lara Cadger, senior, planned to at- tend USCD in California and major in history. She said, I want to get into pre-law and history is a popular major for under- graduate law students. Lara, along with other students, took 20th Century History, which earned her three hours of college credit. This was the second year that this program had been available in history. April Watkins, another history lover, planned to major in math or science, but she says history will definitely be her minor. Watkins said, I have always liked his- tory. I think it helps us to prepare for our future. It is important to understand our history so we can build on it. I plan to take as many history classes as pos- sible. Watkins v ll be enrolling in 20th Cen- tury History her senior year to prepare for her college career. DARIN Freshmen students earn extra credits in classes Decisions were made con- cerning which diploma each student wishes to work for and to what extent they wanted to study each of the four study areas. Seventh graders who received a certain score on a test were eligible to take Algebra I their eighth grade year. Even- tually, some of these students will have the opportunity to take pre-calculus their senior year. At WHS, doubling-up on clas- ses was a fairly new practice. This meant taking two advanced math classes in the same year. The best combination seemed to be taking geometry and Al- gebra II both during a student ' s freshman year.

These students were: Mike O ' Donnell, Derek Holmes, Andy Taylor, Amie Bell, David Johns, and Brad Campbell. O ' Donnell stated, I want to take varsity sports my senior year and right now it ' s the same hour as pre-calculus. I felt that I would remember the material I learned in Algebra I better if I took Algebra II the next year, said Holmes. I wanted a challenge and the chance to get ahead as much as possible. It ' s not hard, said Bell. Johns stated, It gives me a bigger advantage at math con- tests.

Photo by Branden Boise Seniors excel Seniors were given the opportunity to earn an extra credit of math by taking a relatively new class entitled senior math topics. This course was offered any hour that is suitable for the student and Mr. Gillman. It lasted a semester, but students were eligible to take it two semesters in a row, if they wished. Seniors who took this course had the opportunity to choose which specific field of mathematics they wished to learn more about. It was a class which included almost all aspects of math on which information was available. Some of the fields available included analytic geometry, trigonometry, Algebra III, probability, statistics, number theory, set theory, and any other topic that there was information on. Three seniors took math topics: Chris Thixton, Jack White, and Jamie Lux. I took it because I couldn ' t take pre- calculus and I wanted another math credit to prep are myself for college, said Chris Thixton. Jack White replied, I took it because there wasn ' t anything else to do second hour and it is very interesting. It also helps me at math contests. 4 75 X Mania Business of Organization sets worthwhile standards Accounting, typing, and busi- ness rnatti made up the 1987-88 business courses offered at WHS. These courses will be very beneficial to the students in the future. Students can use the skills they learned from these courses in their career choice, in everyday life. Students can use typing for job resumes. Busi- ness math can be used for budgeting salary, or for figuring the cost of goods. Lynn Craven, junior, stated, Accounting I will be very beneficial in any area ! decide to go into. Most students enjoyed the business courses, however, there seemed to have been a large quantity of work. Students said they struggled all year to get their work in on time. In business math, Mrs. Southers gave students a warm-up exer- cise everyday, and they had at least two homework as- signments each day. Steve Yach, senior, said, The work we do in business math is easy, but the amount and the way in which we do it gets monotonous day after day. The Typing I class was pres- sured to do production work with every unit. Stacy Taylor, sophomore, stated, Typing I is frustrating, but I enjoyed it. At the end of the year, the Ac- counting I class rushed around to do their simulation problem. J - Soniofs, Ch:is Thixlon, Jamie Lux. and Jack White, brag aoout thecr hard work.

Photo by Kara Hash Pleasure or business Most students ttiat were involved in a business class this past year admired Mrs. Carolyn Southers. Mrs. Southers has taught the business courses at WHS for the past nine years. Many students seemed to have thought they wouldn ' t have learned as much if it weren ' t for Mrs. Southers ' teaching ability. Mrs. Southers attended college at CMSU in Warrensburg. She received a bachelor degree of science and educa- tion with a major in business education. Also, she received a masters degree of arts with a major in business. Mrs. Southers has had much experience in secretarial work and teaching. Her past secretarial experiences consist of: In- dustrial secretary, Utilites secretary, Educational secretary, and Legal secretary. She ' s had teaching ex- perience at Raytown South Senior High School, CMSU, Sherwood High School, Clinton Area VoTech, and State Fair. Kris Nolte, senior, stated, Mrs. Southers is well organized, and I would be ' lost ' without her. Mrs. Southers kept her classes or- ganized and enjoyable. She discussed the work in her class carefully so that every student would understand. The Accounting I class started having a party on special occasions, such as birthdays. Accounting II kept this tradition and star- ted having parties every Friday. Senior, Angle Young, said, The parties made Accounting II fun and Mrs. Southers made it more enjoyable. OVERWHELMING Youngsters overpopulate foreign language classes Along with expanding their knowledge of their own native tongue, students also had the choice of learning a foreign language. Learning a foreign language had been thought of being tough, especially at the first of the year. During the first year, students learned to conjugate verbs and write in present tense. They learned the basics of the language they studied and by the end of the year, they were able to carry on a simple conversation. •Was it necessary to learn a foreign language? fvlany students thought so. Students chose Spanish because it is used here in the United States. It may be helpful to know a foreign language sometime during my life, replied Christina Hudgens. Some students didn ' t enjoy foreign language and felt it wasn ' t necessary. For those first year students who enjoyed it there is a second year. The second year is necessary for the advanced diploma. The choice of the new generation, the freshmen, chose Spanish over German. Un- desireable numbers of freshmen contributed to over half the students in foreign language. Their presence rejuvenated the upper classmen who once again remembered what it was like to be a freshman. Speaking the language was limited the first year. Mrs. Brown stated, Conversation will be limited because one hour a day using a language is not enough to become very conversive. Senior Toni Phillips explains how to make a pinata.

For the first year of Spanish club, the members thought they were off to a good start. Spanish club was a new or- ganization at WHS. It had never before had so many interested in being a member. The memebers really enjoyed it and were glad to say they were a part of it. The Spanish club members all had Spanish names which was part of being one of the Spanish gang. Playing Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune , were part of the club activities. During the meetings, they did everything in Spanish: speaking, singing, and playing games. They put together a skit called, The House that Jack Built, and made pinatas for Foreign Language Day held inAprilatCMSU. There was only one set back to this organization, one had to have had one year of Spanish to be able to be in- cluded in all the fun. 79 EGGSPERIENCE Child development class is eggspecting a bundle Could it all have been a yoke? Oops! I mean a joke when Dr. Roberta Schnakenberg told her child development class that it w as time to make babies! The students were shocked. Mrs. Schnakenberg had taught for weeks on the proper care for children but they never thought she would go to that extreme. What the students didn ' t know was that she was planning on having egg babies. Each parent received their very own hard-boiled baby. From the time of birth until the baby reached four to five months (one day in class equal- led one month to the baby ' s age) the proud parents were able to take on responsibilties that a real parent might face. Just as a regular new born, the egg infants had journals where progression of their men- tal and physical growth were recorded. Dr. Schnakenberg gave us an overall look at the class: In child development we begin our class with learning about contraception, prenatal development, along with en- vironmental and hereditary birth defects. We discussed preg- nancy and delivery. At that time we delivered the egg babies. During the project we learned of development of children from 0-5 months. It is difficult to com- pare parenting responsibilties of an egg to a real newborn. But we continue doing this ex- perience at the request of students enrolled in child development. The project is concluded with a display of the babies in our nursery showcase window and a baby contest. Unfortuantely in real life babies aren ' t born in perfect condition. This was also true in child development class. Each year the doctor delivers egg babies that are premature, han- dicapped, breeched, and of course, healthy hard-boiled babies in eggcellent condition. In April of ' 87 Kelly Skiles gave birth to a handicapped egg. When she and little Eg- gweina went home from the delivery room Kelly began to dress her. The crack in Eg- gweina ' s skull kept getting deeper and wider. In a short time Ms. Skiles got fed up with her baby ' s condition and she threw it up against the wall. The death of Kelly ' s egg baby didn ' t get her out of doing any class work though. She had to make complete funeral arran- gements. I was so destroyed by my baby ' s death that Tiffany Ireland had to call the funeral home to make arrangements for the burial. Tiffany ' s baby died also. First it was kidnapped, then squished into pieces on the desk top. Kelly and Tiffany hel- ped each other through scrambled emotions. The semester in child development was quite an eg- gsperience, stated Missy Hudgens, and I learned the many responsibilties of caring for an infant. I feel more prepared for the future. All in all; it was quite eggciting. home economics QQ designed by chelle robbins In child development class Ranee Baker, junior, and Melissa Lee, freshman, discuss where babies come from, photo by Dustin Lear Ranee Baker, junior, patiently awaits the rising of her muffins while Cindy Wiimoth, junior, slaves away at the sink, photo by Dustin Lear It ' s a boy!

Whether it ' s a bachelor pad on San Francisco ' s Hyde Street, a ranch in Scottsdale, a room in a com- mune of back-to-nature thinkers, a home in Connecticut or a reconverted barn, it ' s a home. Home to someone. And that someone is a homemaker. Sooner or later everyone is a homemaker and needs the skills of suc- cessfully managing his or her like. Homemaking is more than cooking and sewing. It is learning how to establish goals within a family and achieve them, how to create a happy home. Traditionally, the homemaker ' s role has been thought of as the woman ' s role, in fact, the stereotype of the woinan tied to her apron strings and slaving over a hot stove all day has been with us far too long. That ' s changing, now. Slowly to be sure, but changing for the better. More and more family members are assuming their equal responsibilites as homemakers. Sharing in the home work, in the care and guidance of children, in the establishment of values in the home. And even where there is just a single person involved, there is still the need for a homemaker ' s skills. It ' s one thing in life everyone needs to know. How to manage your future. Future Homemakers of America 81 DECEITFUL Industrial arts turns out more than meets the eye Shop. The word most people used to refer to the industrial arts classes taught by Mr. Wil- liam Gant. There is more to it than just shop . Some of the classes offered in the industrial arts department include woodworking, eighth grade crafts, general shop, and draft- ing. Industrial arts was more than just hammering, sawing, and welding. Much more went on behind the scenes in these classes. It seemed that nobody considers the safety precautions or learning the correct techni- ques to using the tools and ma- chines. ..at first. The students began their classes by learning the basics from watching a variety of movies dealing with the proper ways to use the machines and learning the many safety proce- dures and precautions. After they learned how to operate and use the machines and tools they selected various projects to make from such materials as wood or metal. One special thing that the general shop classes did was to make toy buses for the kinder- garteners to give to them during the holiday season. Students have various reasons for taking an industrial arts class. Senior, Stacy Sledd, took in- dustrial arts to learn to work with the machines. Dawn Mallonee, sophomore, commented, I took general shop to learn to build stuff with my hands and to learn how to use certain tools. J - 4 1 V |J ' V- TB 1. V taEr ? I9 g W M .

Photo by Dustin Lear Shawn Blake, sophomore, gets a new outlook on Industrial arts. Photo by Dustin Lear Gant explains How would one define the many clas- ses that make up industrial arts at WHS? Many wouldn ' t be able to. Mr. Gant, industrial arts instructor, gave the following definitions for each: Pre-vocational industrial arts: study of the technology and the socio-economic contributions of industries concerned with the creation of durable consumer products. Woodworking: information and skills concerned with woods, including various manufactured products, the technology employed in the manufacture and con- struction of products using woods, and related factors such as occupations, economics, and consumer information. Eighth grade crafts: information and skills concerned with hand crafts and the craft industry, including the tools, materials, processes, projects, and oc- cupations of the industry. General shop: study of two or more separate and somewhat distinct aspects of industry and technology. Drafting: information and skills con- cerned with conveying ideas or illustrat- ing graphically through drawings, charts, sketches, maps, and graphs. 83 Devilish Friends find pleasure from mischievous crimes Things had been disappear- ing, Mr. Buck was being blamed. New supplies couldn ' t be found. There were holes in the ink tubes. What was going on? Could it have been little green men from Mars? No, it was just Dina Thrasher and Scott Rogers. They had become friends in art room crime. The projects that couldn ' t be found. ..well, Dina and Scott just loved to see the other students scream at Mr. Buck and swear that he was the one responsible for the loss of their projects, so they hid them. Sometimes they put them on Mr. Buck ' s desk so that when the projects were found, Mr. Buck could be blamed. As for the missing supplies, they hadn ' t been stolen, just hidden. Scott and Dina didn ' t want to use the old supplies, so they got the new ones, used them, and then hid them for the following day ' s use. And the thing that really seemed to be the most fun for them was when it came time to make prints. That was when the Trying to jtoy awake. Michelle McLaughlin, sophomore, doodles on her page. Photo by Wayne Jackson. tubes of ink came out. So when backs were turned, Scott and Dina got out the compasses and poked holes in the ink tubes. Then when the other students squeezed the tubes, ink squirted out on their hands and clothes. Dina and Scott got lots of laughs from this while Mr. Buck tried to solve the mystery. Then there was one day that Scott had a sudden mean streak run through his veins and he turned on his friend in crime. He took ink, put it on a roller, snuck up to Dina and rolled ink up and down her arms. What Scott hadn ' t planned on was the fact that Dina loved sweet revenge. She in return rolled ink all over the front of Scott ' s shirt. The mean str eak finally left and they were no longer against each other. So it was back to their old tricks. The things they did, the trouble they caused, it ' s a won- der they didn ' t get caught. Rogers stated, If we had gotten caught for all this, there isn ' t anyone else I would rather be in trouble with than Dina.

Some people took an art class be- cause they thought it was an easy credit or that they won ' t have to do much in that class. But when they entered the room and sat down at a drawing table, they realize it ' s not all tun and games. There was always a lot of hard work being done in one of Mr. Buck ' s classes. The students began a sketch book and all year long, new sketches were added to it. These were graded each quarter by Mr. Buck. The students learned shading from dark to light points of different shapes, they learned to make pottery, paint, and they also learned a lot of facts and many other interesting projects. Art was not easy. Some people have a special talent for it and it did come more easily for them than for those who had to begin from scratch. But everyone can learn to draw or to paint. There were a few students who have excelled in art. They took both Art I and II and wished to take their interest and talents even fur- ther, so Mr. Buck had an Art III class mixed in with his fourth hour Art II. These students worked very hard and made many different projects. That group of students worked on a life size paper mache Pee Wee Herman doll first semester. One student stated that they were having a few problems with it be- cause the bigger the doll got, the more things there were to break off. There was a lot of work to be done, but it could be fun, too. A student had to take art work just as seriously as he did his other work, but it could be very inter- esting and rewarding. 85 COURAGEOUS Courage takes a hold of all Driver ' s Ed students Mr. Brady, the Driver ' s Educa- tion teacher, had often been referred to as a man with nerves of steel. That must be true. It was quite obvious considering the fact that he was teaching five freshmen, 27 sophomores, and three juniors how to drive. Driver ' s Ed. didn ' t just include driving, the students took tests and Mr. Brady had them take a traffic survey. This traffic survey included the students to make a tally of how many times they saw a licensed driver disobey a traffic law. Kim Rhodes, sophomore, said, Barbee Faulconer scares me to death! The students not only got an education, they also developed friendships, or at least trust in each other ' s driving. Now, everyone had to believe that riding in a car with an unlicen- sed person had to involve some type of relationship. Vanessa Johnson, sopho- more, said, Heather ' s going to kill me! Many students took Driver ' s Ed. so they could be safe and experienced drivers. Many of them also took it for a reduction of insurance prices. The students drive in groups. These groups were arranged by age. The oldest people in the class were in the first group while the other students were in a study hall. This process rotated until all students have had their turn at the wheel and Mr. Brady ' s nerves! lomj Bailey, jophomoro. wc-cii«s ctosehy while l r b-oa poinrs oul tne moior. irioto t Lonc© 86 driver ' s education designed by stacy taylor Kwnny Noland and Tami Battey, sophomortis, took or while M ' Bfody demonsTfotes how lo check the cars woier Photo by Lance Ramsey IsT.i.

Some people were puzzled by this question. Some people thought that they were un- safe. They got this conclusion by think- ing about the fact if their car turned over and was about to blow up the seatbelt would jam and they wouldn ' t be able to get out. Others agreed that they were safe and went along with all of the sur- veys taken involving seatbelts. Ben Rhodes, senior, stated, 1 think everyone should wear them because they may save your life. Tina Thomas, sophomore, stated, I think that using your seatbelts should not actually be a law. If people think that their lives will be safer with them, then they should use them, but in a lot of cases I ' ve heard of people that might have been killed if they would have used them. If people don ' t think it ' s the safest way then they will take their lives in their own hands. When a poll at WHS was taken, as- king whether or not they wear their ■seatbelts 21 out of 74 people said yes, that is 28%; 44 out of 74 said no, 59%; and nine out of 74 said sometimes, 13%. Shirl Taylor, senior, stated, I feel safer when I wear my seatbelt. We never wore them when we were little kids and a lot of people are scared of being trap ped; however, I have no desire to be thrown through a windshield at 55 mph Seatbelts have been proven to save lives and so many people believe in wearing one. If you want to save your life, shouldn ' t you? «7 SOUND- — Many students expand their musical abilities Of all the elective classes of- fered at Warsaw High School, many students chose to enter the field of music. Many people thought that music was just an extra-curricular activity, but was a fine art. Every student needs a fine art in order to graduate. To be in music, a student could enter either vocally or in- strumentally. Vocally, there was girls ' glee and mixed chorus. In mixed chorus, students learned the staff of the scale, listened to music on a tape or record, and sang songs out of a book. Girls ' glee sang and listened to vari- ous types of music. Junior, Rachelle Hurst, who is in a vocal m usic class, commen- ted, I liked to learn about an- cient music and where it originated from. Some people wanted to dis- play musical talents by playing an instrument. The jazz band, better known as the Jazz Cats, gave the students the oppor- tunity to do so. The Jazz Cats consisted of three trumpets, two trombones, two flutes, one tuba, one baritone, one tenor sax, a piano and drums. They learned jazz pieces, they also learned to improvise, and attended many contests. Melanie Wallace, eighth grader, expressed, I liked the Jazz Cats because it gave me a great learning experience. These classes, vocal and in- strumental were taught by two of the most musically inclined teachers. They really made the music department expand in the last year. Their vast knowledge and help enabled the students to reach their summit in music. The Jazz Combo entertains the audience playing Santa Ciaus is Coming To Town.

Photo by Mrs. C The Jazz Combo: A new group was added to the music department. It was a jazz combo. This combo consisted of Fred Allen, senior, on the piano, Jason Gronewold, junior! on the trumpet. Brad Campbell, fresh- man, on the tenor sax, Bobby Hart, freshman, on the bass guitar, and Mike Higgins, senior, on percussion. I thought it was one of the neatest groups in Warsaw High School, and I thought it accomplished a great deal. I am glad they made it a class, stated Fred Allen, senior. They performed in such places as school assemblies, basketball games, and many contests. Not only did they play as a whole, but each one of them would play a solo, which lasted several bars. These solos introduced a new challenge to these students. When they would play their solo, they would im- provise. This was an art of making up his or her own melody, while the rest of the band accompanied them with back- ground chords. The improvisation hel- ped the student expand their playing ability. The jazz combo played a varied selection of music from slow jazz to snazzy jazz. A number of hours went into learning how to improvise. While most of it came naturally, there was still time needed to learn the pieces. A lot of time and patience went in to putting together the right people and just the right amount of talent to successfully have the group the jazz combo. S9 Brilliant I 4 Special students make plans for bright future tion in art, said Mary. Jeanie Shipman, senior, plan- ned to go to Blue Springs to help her husband Marion and work at Kumberland Gap on weekends. I- am interested in the early American way of life, so I ' m con- tinuing work at Kumberland Gap after graduation, said Jeanie. Plans for the future became a reality after graduation for some students. Kim Johnson, junior, planned to move to Kansas City and found a job after graduation. Her later plans included getting mar- ried and starting a family. Alisa Van Luvan, sophomore, planned to live a glamorous life after graduation. She was plan- ning to go to a modeling school on the plaza in Kansas City and getting married after she gets her career started. i_ . .•% Mary Walker, sophomore, KUmuBnSnClGdP ' planned to go to college after graduation but was undecided as to which one.

In content, the class was similar to on-the-job training. The students learned many valuable skills in building trades that would help in car- pentry related jobs. All the students of building trades built a house in Sedalia during December and January. The house was located at 20 and Beacon. Building trades was a very challenging class because much skill and hard work was required in building a house. Darrel Howard, junior, had no plans of making a career out of building trades but he believed that it was a good ex- perience to acquire for the future. It ' s a hard job that takes skill and lots of hard work, said Howard. Bobby Harris, junior, however, did plan to make a career out of what he had learned in building trades. I want to make building trades a career because building houses inter- ests me, said Bobby Building trades held many advantages such as acquiring skills for the future, learning, and job preparations. Planning and labor were among the many qualities required for building trades. Using building trades for a secondary skill to fall back on as a hobby could be very constructive In the future. 91 Fitne Slim, trim student body Keeping in good condition was not easy with the way people lived. With all the luxuries available, exercise was hard to get without setting aside a certain amount of time espe- cially for that. The faculty at W.H.S. realized this and set up an excellent physical education program for anyone enrolled at Warsaw High. Physical education helped the students learn about how exer- cise can help them feel better, look better, and live longer. Basically all RE. classes had the same activity going. Some of the games that were not only fun, but good exercise also. These were soccer, hand ball, tennis, badminton, basketball, wrestling, softball, and even weight training. Terry Swift, freshman, stated, ' I used to not be able to run very far, but now I can. It builds up your muscles when we do our general exercises too. The games we play also help us with basic fundamental skills. Senior, Hope Hardman stated, It ' s taught me new things that will help me do things that I will probably do af- ter high school. Some of the games played in the senior high RE. class were tennis, golf, badminton, and a game Hope stated to be fun but wierd, frisbee golf. Physical education and the need to stay in shape was grow- ing in popularity. Warsaw High School wanted to help change its students into a healthy and wiser adult group. 92 Chris Thixlon, senior, gives a small aid to Dustin Lear on the bencti press.

More and more people were becoming conscientious of physical fit- ness than ever before. Gyms, fitness centers and exercise plans have be- come a daily routine in America and at W.H.S. In 1986, a big atrraction came to the Warsaw High School. Students, parents, and other members of the community saw the need for a fitness program. As of then, there was no place to fulfill this need. A member of the community spon- sored the building for a new weight room at W.H.S. It was started early that year and was completed by spring of ■86. Certain classes had been assigned and made available to the students. These classes were open to both girls and boys in the senior high age group. The classes were broken up into turns. The boys got the weight room Monday and Wednesday, while the girls condi- tion in the gym. On Tuesday and Thursday the girls got their chance to pump some iron in the weight room, while the boys spent their hour in the gym. According to Tina Hix, senior, girls en- joyed it as much as the boys. She stated, It was kind of hard at first but now we ' re up to 10 minutes of straight running. It ' s got my endurance built up and my muscles, too. You gain weight, but you ' re firm. All in all, the weight training program .had brought a lot of happy and physi- cally fit people into the city of Warsaw. It was helped out our high school teams and brought spirit back to our school. 93 VOCATIONAL Students skip to the Fair - a ride to future successes Each day after second hour of the 1987-88 school year, a small group of Warsaw High School ' s student body skipped classes. While their fellow classmates studied during thrid hour, these students would either take a bus or drive their own vehicles to the State Fair in Sedaiia, Missouri. This State Fair wasn ' t a fair with rides and games but a two-year college with a vocational program. The vocational techn ical students were offered advan- cement in machine tool tech- nology, nursing, agriculture, auto-mehanics, electronics, welding, carpentry, and busi- ness administration. The Stale Fair students had advantages and disadvantages over other students. The advan- tages were that they were able to start their college education for their planned careers. The disadvantages were that they missed out on school day ac- tivities such as pep assemblies. Jerry Crawford, junior at War- saw High School stated, I didn ' t really miss going to the pep as- semblies. I liked State Fair. I learned more. My classes were like having a job. State Fair Community Col- lege ' s vocational program was only offered to high school juniors and Seniors. , ' W JSl 1 f •- M r H r -4 1 . H: ' W Jerry Spry, Junior, works in auto mechanics.

Photo by Dustin Lear All work- no play Sometimes in a high school student ' s life difficult decisions concerning his or her future must be made. Junior, Crystal Coffey, who hoped to become a design- ing artist, had to make that choice. Cof- fey had to choose between furthering her talents in Choir and Madrigal at Warsaw High School or to get a head start in training for her planned career. She chose to major in graphic arts at State Fair Community College. Graphic arts was a major that teaches the steps of finishing a graphics product. We were just taught the basics and there was no room for mistakes in this course, stated Coffey. Coffey hoped to become a designing artist for Hallmark or for a major card company. I hope to become an execu- tive in my place of business, and be well respected by my peers, and those who work under me, said Coffey. When asked if she regreted her deci- sion of giving up music at the high school for education at the State Fair, Coffey answered, i did because I love to sing tremendously, but in the long run I did get a head - start in training that will be helpful to me in the future. I mostly missed not being involved in activities like Choir because I enjoy them. I like being with my friends. Going to S.F.C.C. has really made me appreciate Choir and Madrigal. 95 SATELLITE DISH students enjoy library with addition of a satellite Junior, Raymond Baraks, taxes time to neip senior. Mike Higgins recKi tl-ie newspaper Photo by Dustin Lear The Warsaw High School library received a satellite dish from Dockery Satellite, located in the Truman Hills Shopping Center. The satellite dish was being used constantly to recor d educational programs anywhere from a history program about King Aurther to a science program about the life cycle of a zebra. There were many programs recorded for many various classes. Mrs. Gay Lee stated, It is fan- tastic to me that we, here in the middle of Missouri, can be present in the U.S. Capitol or any other place when important happenings are occurring. When the space shuttle blew up, we were there! Also, satellite television provides the oppor- tunity to utilize a wide variety of educational programming, don ' t understand how it all works, but I ' m glad it does. Many students commented on the importance of the satellite. Senior, Lenora Retherford commented with a chuckle, While I ' m escaping from daily pressures, 1 can tune in to my favorite Sesame Street episodes. Junior, Kim Murphy stated, By having the satellite we can get more educational programs for our classes. Many students who slipped into the library to escape the daily jam of the halls, can relax with a good book, watch t.v., or just sit back and enjoy the quiet atmosphere of the library.

Library student excels Kim Flippin had taken library science class for tv ' o years. Mrs. Ga ye Lee commented, We have had several ex- cellent library students this year. I am proud of all of them. However this is my second year to have senior, Kim Flippin, in class; and she has done truly out- standing v ork. Academically, she went beyond the requirements for an E. I find that real scholars do that. In meeting the rigid standards for library applications, I found Kim only had to be instructed once, and she would do the work neatly and without error. I would like to see Kim become a professional school librarian. With a college degree I feel sure she V, :jld make an excellent one. I spent a lot of time in the library, and 1 thought I ' d learn more about it, said Kim Flippin about her choice of this class. She also replied, Yes, it has benefi- ted me because I took rhetorical writing and we have used the library a lot this year. Kim said she would like to work in the library in college; but as for a career, she is undecided. A school librarian needs a certain amount of knowledge on all subjects plus a lot of knowledge on the ad- ministration of a library. Many people do not realize that a school librarian is a teacher just like any teacher that has specialized in a certain area, Mrs. Gaye Lee stated. 97 Heather Prrry, j.inior, shows that her style of dress- ing is with the modern times. Photo by Kara Hash Qg people division I ' designed by dina thrasher Fashionable is Wliat it ' s all about The styles at Warsaw High School were evi- dent that the times were changing. When a poll was taken the results were far from close. The categories of the poll were fashionable which ranked first, then in order came casual, preppy, athletic, country, tough and the last category chosen was the businesslike style. Lori Wolfe, senior, stated, I like to dress casual because it ' s more comfortable and it ' s the only thing I can afford. Rusty Callister, junior, replied, I like casual because they shrink to fit. Lenora Retherford, senior, stated, It ' s fun to dress in the latest fashions, just to watch people ' s reactions to them. Michelle McGhee, junior, replied, Fashionable is the best because I like to be up with the times and to be different than anybody else. I like to make a fashion statement. Senior, Shirl Taylor stated, Casual because I don ' t like to stand out in a crowd. Wayne Jackson, senior, stated, Casual be- cause it seems more comfortable. Jason Gronewdid, junior stated, Preppy be- cause I like to show off my true identity. Tracy Martin, junior, repJied, I try to be fashionable, because I like to be in the latest styles and look nice. Randy Johnson, senior, shows off his country style. Photo by t aia Hash Noticing changes in education Many changes took place in the late 70 ' s and early ' 80 ' s that really changed the teaching profession. In those years, fewer and fewer high school graduates entered college to major in education. Most would enter professions such as computer programming, engineering, medicine, or law. The biggest reason for the changes was due to the fact that those careers had a higher salary than that of careers in education. Martha Karvoletz, NEA president, remarked, In 1981, Missouri ' s per pupil expenditure was $350 below the na- tion al average. Now we are $650 below. Also in 1981, the average teacher ' s salary ranked 33 in the nation and was $2000 below the national average. Now the ranking is the same but we are be- hind by $3600. However, the salary that a teacher received was not the only change. Students realized that good grades were required if they were to beocme suc- cessful Mrs. Candace Anderson Mr. Gayle Anderson Mr. Bob Brady Ms. Lorene Brown Mr. Loren Burke Mr. Stephen Buck Mrs. Anita Campbell Mr. Don Dixon Mr. Barry Edwards Mr. Bill Gant Mr. Ron Gillman Ms. Peggy Gilmore faculty designed by lenora retherford Mrs. Mory Ringen and Mrs, Patsy Sellers enjoy the 1ec hold in Ihe WHS library Photo by Kara Hoih Mr. IVlaruszak and Martha Karvoletz.

After much heated discussion, it was decided to do away with one hour of varsity sports, and have the coaches flip a coin to decide which team would get it first. Coach Don Dixon won the toss, and thus ended the debate. Girls var- sity sports continued for the 88-89 school year in its usual first hour time slot. The remaining team was forced to upset the already stable schedule, and will alternate every year hereafter. It was also decided that in two years the board would review the situation and determine how effective it has been. Another issue that received attention was the proposal of an AIDS policy. With AIDS becoming increasingly widespread, it was argued that a policy was needed that would handle each case individually should a problem occur. A third diploma-vocational-was also added. The board welcomed a new board member early in April. Mrs. Shawn Miller replaced Dr. Leo Porter. Porter retired from the board taking many years of service with him. -- ' ' ■ ' ■ rXS il roHr North School P rincipal Mr Bob Lee, patiently lis- tens to the complaints often hieard by an elementary principal- Phioto by Branden Boise 1 02 administration designed by heather lynch Mr. Randy Morrow, elementary counselor, and Mr Bill Gott. higti sctiool counselor, take a breal from their busy schedules to catch up on the day ' s events.

Non-certified personnel keeps sanity despite barriers Non-certified personnel was a name used for the janitors, cooks, and secretaries that worked at WHS. It was certainly not used to adequately describe them. They most definitely proved that work- ing around the students was not an easy job. Though their jobs were tiring and sometimes irritating, they still did their duties to keep WHS running smoothly without making a fuss. The secretaries answered the phones with a cheery voice, tolerated students that arrived at school late, needed admit slips or passes, and patiently helped students with their problems. They paid bills, kept student records up to date, and corresponded with parents and other schools. The janitors constantly cleaned up af- ter students that threw paper and other objects on the floor. They stayed after school to clean the rooms and keep the school in tip-top condition for the next day. Some students enjoyed their com- pany while others enjoyed their ability to open jammed lockers. The cooks made sure the students ate a nutritious, well-balanced meal consisting of ail four food groups. They tried to provide the students with a variety of foods so that the lunches wouldn ' t seem repetitious and boring. At any rate, the cooks, janitors, and secretaries of WHS kept the school run- ning at a smooth pace which proves that they deserved the credit that ' s due to them.

They were the people who were sitting up waiting patiently no matter what time anyone got in. Parents were known for telling everyone under the age of twenty-one what to eat, when to eat it, where to go, and who to go with. Parents were also patient, under- standing, helpful, and occasionally friendly. Seniors discovered that they had some rather interesting memories of their parents when they looked back on eighteen years at home. Lori Wolfe recalled one of her earliest memories of her mother, I remember when we thought there was a snake under the washer and we sat in the kitchen with our feet in the air for about two hours. Wayne Jackson recalled, We had a wading pool and my brothers and I used to dive under the water and my father would walk into the pool and he seemed so tall. Seniors also discovered that their parents could be good people. Tracy Grubb, when talking about her mother, stated, I consider her one of my best friends. We have a few misunderstan- dings but basically we get along well. Kristen Nolle said, We ' re more like sisters than mother and daughter. Parents could also be supportive, much to the surprise of many seniors. Kristi Burkhart stated, She has faith in me and figures whatever I want to do is fine with her. Lenora Retherford, who was planning to attend William Jewell, said, My mother ' s really glad I ' m going to a private college instead of a state univer- sity. My mother loves my future plans. We ' re good friends and we do a lot of joking around about my mother being five foot tall, staled Angle Young.

Photo by Mrs, C One year after still the wild and crazy Letting off steam was among the favorite passtimes of WHS seniors. After eleven years of school the pressure made them a little crazy. On the way back from the cave trip, I was attempting to throw a rather large string of firecrackers out of the back window of the bus. I missed, much to the enjoyment of Mr. See. You shouldVe seen them scurry! stated Hansford Hair. Not all of the senior escapades were potentially lethal. However, Kara Hash ' s idea of wild and crazy consisted of put- ting fruit flies in teachers ' lunchboxes. Late at night was a favorite time for seniors to show their wild side. Senior Laura Cadger, stated, One time Shir! and I got hungry around two a.m. so we hopped in the car in our nightshirts and went to Fuel f art. Stacy was with us and she was the only one wearing nor- mal clothes. While Stacy and I were at- tempting to trade shirts, a truck driver came out and started talking to us! Stacy was so mad she was screaming at him from the floorboards and all Shir! and I could do was laugh!!

First came the seemingly never-en- ding payments to the jerk who swore the car was perfect. Next comes the teenage under twenty-five reckless and irrespondible driver ' s insurance premium. Following that was the bill to the male- chauvinist pig (the mechanic who loved to wait on naive women) who had to be paid before he began. According to him, the transmission was about to go out, the battery was al- most dead and the back left tire was darn close to a blow out. Naturally, all of those things that hadn ' t happened yet (and maybe never would), had to be replaced immediately. Hopefully, with a lot of luck, there would be a little left over to budge the gas gauge up a tad past the big red E , since the car has been runing on fumes for two weeks. Steve Intelmann once stated, No one can possibly know how humiliating it is to pay $1.27 for gas. What if I ' d gone over a penny or two? Last was the terrifying nightmares every single night that the perfect car wouldn ' t even start the next morning! The dream always ended with non-un- derstanding parents screaming, you still have time to catch the bus. ..bus. ..bus... Kristi Bukhart stated, Luv, my darling truck, has a big gap in the middle of the dash. When I turn left, something rubs and makes a terrible squeaking noise. Laura Cadger said, The Bomber is quite possibly the worst piece of machinery to ever hit the road. Dina Thrasher stated, My car has gone through a lot. I ' ve put it in the ditch several times, rolled It once, backed into a telephone pole and caved the roof in twice. It ' s held up amazingly.

Mercer. Steve Intelmann. and JackKiiti by Kris Nolte Here ' s lookin ' at Senior faces The seniors had looks that could laugh, smile, cross, tongue-twist, surprise, thrill, and kill. The difterent fa- cial expressions ranged from times of seriousness to times of not so serious. One of the senior ' s first expressions started the first day of the school year. Kristi Burkhart was seen with wide eyes when almost trampled by a mob of un- derclassmen. Oh! No! Another year of little dorks invading our turf! cried Burkhart. Disgusted and starved faces often appeared in the school cafeteria. On a rare occasion a person could have been caught with an expression of satisfac- tion. One example of this was when Dustin Lear ' s eyes filled with extreme excitement as he took the big bite of a high school hamburger. It was finger-licking good, licked Lear. Homework was never welcome in a senior ' s agenda. Whenever a teacher would assign homework, the eyes of the upperclassman would become an evil glare. One time during the school year the warning of an accounting test caused Lori Wolfe ' s eyes to go into the back of her head. Calgon! Take me away! screamed Wolfe. After thirteen years of school, the seniors had learned to act as mature, repsonsible adults. For Shirl Taylor, whenever a problem arose all she had to do was stick out her tongue and say You guys quit picking on me!

Many of the girls had had their hair and make-up professionally done for that special night. Tracy Martin, junior, said, I wanted to look really good for that one night and I figured it would be worth the money to have someone else do my hair. The banquet area was filled with a mixture of excitement and anticipation as everyone waited for the black curtain to be removed exposing the dance floor. Junior class president. Chuck Martin, welcomed the senior class, and senior class president, Chris Thixton, made an acceptance speech. The dinner began after a prayer given by Rev. Sam Hinkle. Yearbook advisor and English teacher, Mrs. Campbell, said, I thought the food was extra nice this year and the prom cake looked just beautiful. Finally, at 8:00, everyone started jammin to the beat of Bad Penny . Tracy Grubb, senior, said, I thought the band was excellent and the banquet was really nice. Kris Nolte, senior, said, I really loved the band. They ' re guys after my own taste. (Wild and Crazy) At 10:15 , Angle Young and Wayne Jackson were crowned prom king and queen. Angle Young, senior, said, I was so excited that Wayne and I both received a crown. That was one night I will not soon forget. Lori Wolfe, senior, summed it all up by saying, The juniors really surprised me with their decorations. I was impressed. Prom ' 88 was definitely a night to remember.

The junior class, under the direction of Sponsor, Ron Gillman, and President, Chuck Martin, began working to raise money long before school began in September. With their first job of setting up, working, and cleaning up Jubilee Days in June, the juniors were regarded as having done the best job in several years. Some other similar projects in- cluded: Heritage Days, and the BPW Craft Show. In October, they earned well over 1,000 dollars by selling magazines. With the colors red, black, and white, and the theme ' Into the Night ' , the juniors began Wed- nesday, April twentieth, to transform the idea of ' Prom 1988-lnto the Night ' into a reality. Banquet, designed by representative, f ichelle Wallace, included a streamer-lined ceiling, a helium-filled-balloon-lined walkway, and a single red-tipped carnation on each table. The menu consisted of roast beef, corn, broc- coli with cheese sauce, rolls, ice tea, and a cus- tom designed prom cake. The dance area, un- der the direction of Vice-President Heather Lynch and Secretary-Treasurer Gina Findley, was transformed into the excitement of a city night. The band. Bad Penny-back to WHS for a second time-was set on risers in front of the stage. The stage provided a luminescent atmos- phere in the background, with eight-foot skyscrapers, an eight-foot balloon arch, and three chic silhouettes behind King Wayne Jackson, and Queen Angle Young. Crowning took place at second break with Heather Perry as Mistress of Ceremonies, Heather Lynch crowning the Royal couple, and Hope Hardman, Lance Ramsey, Lori Wolfe, and Jamie Lux as at- tendants. The juniors ' idea of Prom ' 88 was to be as uni- que as possible, and anyone who attended could see the difference from past proms in things such as the regularly run crowning and Michelle McGhee ' s picture backdrop which in- cluded three framed city nights murals, and Mr. Gillman ' s ' 66 candy-apple red Mustang.

This question was asked by many of the short and answered by many of the tall people of the junior class. Jock Porter towered over the junior class at a heighth of six feet five inches. At four feet eleven, Leanna Allen literally looked up to many people. Christina Hudgens could pretty easily fit into a locker at five feet. Leanna Allen didn ' t mind being short because she felt that some tall people looked geeky . Heather Lynch said, The advantage of being short is that you can still ride most of the kiddie rides at World ' s of Fun. The disadvantage is that you can ' t reach the top shelf of your locker. I feel the advantage of being tall is that you can ride some of the big rides at World ' s of Fun that Heather Lynch cannot, replied Scotty Burt. Jock Porter liked being tail because he felt his heighth not only helped him with basketball, but also with attracting girls. Leanna Allen needs a little boost to reacti a library book as Wade Masoner grabs one witti ease.

They think so small, they use small words... Peter Gabriel included these words in his song Big Time as he preachedthat a small town is not the place to start if you want to make it big. Compared to a big town, small towns had little to be desired. There were few restaurants so many people had to eat their mother ' s cooking. The closest mall was an hour and a half away in Springfield and the nearest hospital was thirty minutes away. In a town with the population of Warsaw, most people knew everyone else. This contributed to getting caught everytime you did some- thing wrong. Entertainment was very scarce in Warsaw. The only things to do were go to the show, drive around town until you were out of gas, and go to parties. Tracy Martin said, 1 don ' t like living in a small town because too many rumors are spread and they travel very fast. A quiet day on Warsaw ' s Main Street is typical to that of tvlain Street U.S.A. in smail towns.

Some of the fashions the sophomores chose to wear were; stone-washed jeans, Reebok, Nike, big, bulky sweaters, turtlenecks, big socks, white canvas tennis shoes, mini-skirts, and bell skirts. The list could go on forever. When asked what their favorite fashion was and why, Janelle Gross, sophomore, answered mini-skirts, and over-sized sweaters-because they were comfortable. Melody Ferguson, sophomore, said, Blue jeans and a nice sweater, I like something that is comfortable and looks nice. When it came to looking nice, the sophomore class tried their best. Al- though there were a few that liked being comfortable and dressing just like them- selves. Heidi Rehagen, sophomore, said, T- shirts, mini-skirts, tennis shoes, and bulky sweaters because I hate to dress up all the time, I like to be myself. Kim Rhodes, sophomore, stated, Faded jeans and my boyfriend ' s shirts and sweaters. I like the feel of them, they are comfortable and just right. Tisha Shepard, sophomore, said, Sweaters and jeans because they look good on and they are comfortable. Girls were not the only people who liked to be impressive. Looking through the eyes of the male sophomores, they liked to act just the same. Bryan Collins, sophomore, stated, Jeans with holes in the knees and tight shirts. Because it makes me feel good. I feel like myself. Phillip Kreisler, sophomore, stated, Faded and baggy blue jeans, loose sweaters and Nike hightops. Bill Hallack, sophomore, stated, Sweaters and tight 501 ' s, they look and feel good. Boo Foreman, sophomore, stated, I like beach wear-casual wear, because I am a casual type of guy.

In order for them to reach their future goals they had to strive for suc- cess. The sophomores had already star- ted focusing on their future by becoming the class officers, or officers of any other organization and by just doing their best at everything. Shelly Hutton, sophomore, stated, Being a representative of the sophomore class gives me a feeling of success when we accomplish some- thing good. I feel my classmates and fel- low officers have helped me as well as each other and we should all feel suc- cessful. Being an officer of any organization was very hard work. Many of us know this by experience, but Stephani Linville had made a major accomplishment with the sophomore class funds. Stephani Linville, sophomore, stated, As sophomore president I feel it ' s my job to provide the entire class with a feeling of success. Over the last two years our funds were a little low. I have tried to make up for those years, as well as this year. In May I will know exactly how successful the officers and I have been and I hope the next president will reach for the stars and bring as much success to our class, as 87-88 did this past year. Being a representative of a class may not sound like a big job, but April Wat- kins, sophomore, proved this theory wrong by stating, I feel a great deal of responsibiltiy to be successful in what I do because I was not only helping our class be a success, but I am also par- tially responsible for how the student council works to become a success. I feel a bit of self success because the sophomore class has put me in a spot in which I am responsible and it shows they are sure I will help the class to suc- ceed and reach new heights. The sophomore class worked together really hard to be successful and they all had good intentions to be great successors in the future.

Many of these underclassmen were not recognized in the various things in which they excelled-such as athletics and academics. Academically, several students excel- led by taking both geometry and Algebra ll-ciasses that were traditionally taken only by sophomores and juniors. These classes were open to those students who were permitted to take Algebra I, a freshmen course, when in the eighth grade. Before enrolling in these classes, they must have first been approved by Mr. Ron Gillman, WHS math instructor, as to whether he thought they could handle both while juggling a full schedule of other required classes. According to Gillman, Students are screened by mathematical ability, desire, and a high probability that taking both courses won ' t interfere with any other classes. An advantage to this was that these students will end their senior year two years ahead of their grade level in mathematics. Those students who were allowed to enroll in both classes this year were Amie Bell, David Johns, Mike O ' Donnell, Andy Taylor, Derek Homes, and Brad Campbell. Campbell was also enrolled in an ad- vanced English course, Biology I, and competed on the sophomore level in the many math contests that math club at- tended throughout the year. In the athletic department, Stephanie Morland started on the varsity volleyball and basket ball teams. She received many honors such as volleyball MVP, and she was named to the Kaysinger Conference first team, and also received Tri-County honorable mention. In bas- ketball, she was picked for the Osceola All-Tournament team. Although this was their first year as true high schoolers , the class of ' 91 obtained a head start on their way to- a successful high school life.

There were many new things such as obtaining a grade point average to worry about. In order to start their high school careers with a high G.P.A., they had to keep up in all their classes. Homework presented a problem, however, for athletes when there were week night games, or when the entire student body flocked to the cheap show on Tuesday nights. This forced the freshmen to come up with excuses for unfinished homework, since most were not brave enough to be honest. Some of these excuses were just above the believable line such as, somone told me wrong, forgetting the fact that they were supposed to be lis- tening too. Then there were always the ones that seemed funny until one realized that while the class rolled down the halls with laughter, the teacher was still not smil- ing. The dumbest excuse that Eric Ram- sey, had ever given was, when I told Mrs. Fisher that I ran out of toilet paper. I told Mrs. Fisher that I ran out of toilet paper. Previously one might not have realized how much imagination it took to keep coming up with new excuses for undone homework and even tardies, time after time.

Students went from stand- ing in lines and paying their lunch money by the week, to a whole new world. Once one was out there with the big guys everything changed, no more standing in lines, and waiting until recess time to get a drink. Teachers weren ' t going to baby students any more. After reaching the eighth grade students expected to be mature and responsible. When Jonathan Gott, eighth grader, was asked if he thought he had matured since he came to the high school he said, Yes, I ' ve been around older people and I have good role models to follow. You have to be more mature in order for older people to respect you. Going to school at the high school has many advantages. Students have more freedom and responsibility. They also have more opportunity and a better chance to learn. Eighth grader, Eric Flores stated, Being in high school gives me more opportunity, but you also have to be responsible for yourself.

More than ever before sophomore, junior, and senior girls were dating eighth graders. Girls were falling for younger guys, and younger guys definitely wanted older girls. W hen asked if he would date older girls, Roy Johnson, eighth grader, said, Yes, because they act older and they are filled out better. Jonathan Gott, eighth grader said, I prefer to go out with older girls. They are much more mature and are more fun to be around. Many older girls felt that they could date a younger guy. Stacy Taylor, sophomore said, If you really like a person the age difference should not matter. Junior, Gina Findley stated, I would date a younger guy on the basis that he is mature enough to handle most situations. I also believe age has no es- sence in any successful relationship. Was it possible that a new trend in dating could be starting? Only the future will tell what ' s in store.

The child quietly stepped into his kindergarten classroom and had a dream. His dream later became goals, accomplishments, and perhaps, success. Elementary education at R-9 had a great in- fluence among young children ' s lives. Basic areas of study were taught to each student by both teachers and peers. On the first day of a five year old ' s school year, new friends and experiences were met. As the child continued through school, he not only learned how to read, write, add and subtract but also how to get along with others; to take on a responsibility; and to look back to past ex- periences. Senior, Lori Wolfe, learned that a student can- not sneak out of the classroom behind the teacher ' s back. When I was in the first week of my first grade year I sneaked out of the classroom when the teacher wasn ' t looking. I didn ' t like my teacher because she was an old, big, fat grouch - her name was Mrs. Binkly. So, I went to my sister ' s classroom and hid. My teacher found me but she had to chase me around the room to catch me. When she caught me I was just a bit in trouble - but she quit a couple weeks later, said Wolfe. I always talked back to the teacher and did not want to obey their rules. Every time I did something wrong the teacher would send me to the office or make me write sentences. I learnec that I should try not to be a smart aleck because most teachers were there to help me learn, not to hurt me, commented Chuck Martin. When the child reaches adulthood, his memories can be remembered as good, bad, and hilarious; but always appreciated. Elementary jtudonti show their wild side.

They excelled in such areas as sports, academics, and various other activities. But they believed their biggest accomplishment was their invol- vement in the year long fundraiser to earn money for a new computer lab. It started in December with the kids drawing Santa pictures. In January they held a spell-a-thon. The kids collected pledges and were then given fifty words to spell. They collected money on the basis of how many words they got right. Michael Slavens said, I raised forty-one dollars, while Andrew Meyer had a little less luck and only raised four dollars and thirty cents. But that was okay, because according to the students and teachers, the most memorable part of the fundraiser was the variety show, which was held in February. Several seventh graders par- ticpated by participating in a play about Tom Sawyer Ryan Gronewold said, I was very nervous at first, but after I got started it got easier. Andrew Meyer said, I think we did a really good job considering we had to perform for the whole town. Jackie Harris summed it by saying, At least the practices got us out of spell- ing. The fundraiser ended with a supper in March, an auction in April, in which people from the community donated things, and finally in May they raffled off a gas grill which was donated by Wal- Mart. The students hoped to earn at least ten thousand dollars.

Coping with drugs and suicide Seventh grade was a year of firsts and lasts. Seventh graders were not self-contained, but moved between class rooms for each subject. They still followed basically the same curriculum as the rest of the elementary with the exception that some of them leaft during last hour study hall to pursue extra-cur- ricular activities at the high school, such as sports. These students were at the top of the elementary, but just became aware that they were at the bottom of the picking order at the high school. To help with these new found feelings, Mr. Morrow, the elementary counselor at the south school, met with them as a group once a week. His discussions dealt with problems that the kids could come in contact with in their daily lives. I feel that I learn quite a bit in Mr. •Morrow ' s class. He teaches us things that kids our age should know about. Some of these things are suicide, smok- ing, drugs, and AIDS, said Abby Bell. I think the group discussions with Mr. Morrow help to make us more aware of things to watch out for and avoid. They also give the class a chance to tell the others how they feel, said Bobbie War- ren. Angelia Watkins said, In Mr. Morrow ' s class I feel like I can open up, and trust everyone with how I feel. It ' s a class where I can really let my feelings show. The seventh graders were also in charge of the Bicentennial Constitution celebration. To kick the week off they showed a movie about the writing of the Constitution, then on Friday they watched part of the celebration on telev ision and said the Pledge of Al- legiance. Later in the day they constructed the United States flag out of construction paper with the help of everyone in the school. They also learned a lot about the- government and men such as, Representative Delbert Scott, Mr. Larry Burditt, and Mr. Leiand Burnett came to their school to talk about the role they play in government life. The seventh graders put the icing on the cake by visiting the county government offices and taking a trip to Jefferson City to see the Capitol and Governor ' s mansion.

The main characters were a cave man named Rock, who was portrayed by Luke Salley; and his wife Martha, played by Amber Campbell. One day Rock got the idea that he wanted to fly like the birds. Each time Rock would get an idea about how to create flight, someone else would invent it first. Rock had many different ideas, but none of them seemed to work. The story followed the history of flight and included performances by such historic people as Amelia Earhart and Orville and Wilbur Wright. The evening was a great success and the kids had a lot of fun. (Even though Rock never did figure out how to fly.)

They learned many basic cautions and how electricity can be useful in so many different ways. REA ' s Mr. Conrad used a model Hulk Hogan to demonstrate the power of electricity if it is not treated with respect. Electricity can be very dangerous, said Matthew Henderson. I have learned many basics that con- tain electricity to watch out for like hang- ing wires, said Bradley Rasmussen. Electricity can be useful if used right, said Darla Duke. After learning about the different types of circuits and how electricity was produced, each fifth grade student con- structed their own battery powered game board using parallel circuits. To sum it up Kristen Boone said, Don ' t mess with electricity. ; iLr ' A South Mrs. Elaine Simons Stacey Arnett James Baumli Kristen Boone Cory Brandt Aaron Cline Joyce Doop Darla Duke Sherri Fairweather Nell Gemes Duane Janssen Matthew Henderson Brent Keltner Russell Kinnlson Jason Larson Tiffany Lee Michael Lemon Christopher Long Christian Moody Dorothy Northcutt 144 fifth grade designed by leanna alien Duane Jansen is very careful when working with electricrty.

The teams were I.D.A. which was the yellow team, United Missouri Bank which was the blue team, Ida Mae Campbell Insurance which was the green team, and Warsaw Auction Com- pany which was the red team. When asked what they accomplished playing flag football fifth grade students replied, It was a really cool experience and I made a sixty yard run while play- ing the I.D.A. team. Darin Lutman, quarterback, said, 1 know I ' m as good as Dan Marino. I made a bunch of long passes and once I scored the winning point in an overtime game, said David Miller who played for the United Missouri Bank team.

One most gratifying project for the students was the Book It project. The students had to read a certain number of books before receiving a party, and did. They reached their goal with one- hundred percent. The students also studied the state of Missouri. After studying the Show Me State, the s tudents took a train trip to Jefferson City. There they toured Mis- souri ' s capitol, and other sites. Along with eating pizza and seeing the sites of Jefferson City, some students found seriousness in math club. Several students of the class were involved in the organization. Math club members met after school and on Saturdays. The members atten- ded contests, and listened to a few guest speakers, that spoke to the mem- bers on Saturdays, and in all serious- ness had fun.

With shades of the Little Red School House, the students had opportunities to tutor and work with each other that were n ot available in the regular classroom. The students found that friendships can and did cut across grade levels. Friendships between the fourth and fifth graders were of significant importance to the students. Together they completed science units in astronomy, the human body, and first aid. They also completed their own history books highlighting the exploits of the early explorers and the Revolu- tionary War. The students completed many projects with great success. One most successful project was the Shakesperean play, Macbeth. They presented the play before the entire stu- dent body and later watched a videotape of their performance.

Back to a time of mountain men, trap- pers, and spending an entire day lazily floating down a river on a wooden raft. Mrs. Miller ' s third grade class learned of such experiences on their field trip. They cruised down the Missouri River on a triple-decker paddlewheel boat on which they learned much about trapping and the history of the river. Many students enjoyed their ex- perience of traveling on the boat. Sara Simmons, third grader liked looking at the water . Third grader, Levi Gemes liked making things, while Sara Meyer thought ' 1he boat looked like a cake. Besides being educational, the students will remember their trip down the Missouri for a long time.

They shifted paces from learning the basics of English, math, reading, and spelling to applying their knowledge and using it to solve problems. They had a new addition in their read- ing class. A student teacher from CMSU visited and taught the students. They learned to follow directions in their Towers reading book when they made Navajo Fry Bread. In their Spinners reading book, they made Mrs. Birdie ' s Bread. In math, the basic skills of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division were improved by playing around the world and saying their facts as fast as they could. The students improved their writing and imaginative skills when they took Ted E. Bear home with them. They had to write a paper about what they did with Ted E. Bear when he went home with them.

Whether or not you can spell these words, this year ' s second grade from North Elementary School can and they have proven they can by entering a spellathon, sponsored by the North PTC, to help equip the school with a computer lab. The kids went to people, and asked them to pledge money for every word spelled correctly. The proceeds went to help furnish the school with a computer lab, and in the process, the children learned how to spell. The second graders in Mrs. Gumm ' s, and Mrs. Erwin ' s classes participated in spelling bees, math races on the board, and balloon lifts. Mrs. Gumm ' s 2B class made the street of Philadelphia for the celebration of the Constitution birthday while Mrs. Erwin ' s 2A class made pos- ters and participated in the balloon lift. Another project the second graders from North Elementary got involved in was Reading for pizzas . The kids were to read seven books a month, then they would receive a pizza from Pizza Hut. The second graders from North really enjoyed the balloon lift and were very energetic about learning. jj kS4ll North School Mrs. Linda Erwin Mrs. Shirley Gumm Leslie Adams Cory Anderson Kristi Berryman Beau Breshears Corey Boyer Benji Butler Ann Marie Bue Dawn Cann Stacey Davidson Valerie Gardner Shamane Gatliff Justin Gibson Megan Glenn Amanda Hart Jamie Henderson Adam Hill Joel Hinkle Brock Hockman 156 seound grade designed by missy hudgens Beau Breshears, second grade, shows his spirit by wearing a Warsaw Wildcats sweatshirt, worlo A steadily.

Around Christmas, the second graders from the South School wrote let- ters to the North School ' s second grade, as a project to bring the two schools closer together, not to mention teaching them the proper letter writing techni- ques. The secret-pal project continued through out the year, and at the end of the year, the second grade planned to have a picnic for the entire second grade from both schools. Besides the secret-pal project, the class made their own small community- right in the middle of Mrs. Morrow ' s classroom. They gave guided tours to the whole school, and were even paid a visit by Mr. Mahlon White. Mrs. Morrow ' s second graders were very interested in reaching to the community and letting people know about their class, and about their school.

While studying math, language, social studies, and science, the students also did projects. Mrs. Diane Jones intro- duced the first graders to such projects as the Indian unit, in which the students made totem poles, and each student had an Indian name. At the end of the unit, the first graders prepared an Indian feast that was shared with the seventh graders. In the Indian unit, I learned about ar- row heads and the way the Indians lived, stated Matthew Simons. Also the students did a book on planets. In this unit they learned all the planets and locations. Kiya March! commented, I learned about Mars, Venus, Mercury, and Earth, and where they are in the sky. I learned that the Sun is the closest star, and that there is no life on any other planet except on earth, stated Sam Jones. In this first grade these students ex- panded on their learning and also had fun at the same time.

The north school first graders experienced pages full of excitement. During the school year. Both teachers, Miss Dorothy Feaster, and Miss Judy Kinkead made reading fun. Many programs and ac- tivities were provided for each student. One such program was book-it, spon- sored by Pizza Hut. A student was re- quired to read so many books in order to get a certificate for a free pizza. I had to read nine books to get a pizza, commented Abby Campbell. Tara Burnett said, In my class, everytime you read a book, you get a star by your name. She went on to say. With seven books read, I got a pizza. While some try for pizza and stars, others set number goals. My goal is to read four or five books a week, stated Lucas Olsen. Whatever the activity or program was, first graders were reading more than ever.

Special peopEe visit north The kindergarten class of R-9 North School was visited this past year by several community helpers. These community helpers consisted of Rob Lane, J.C. Shaw, Dr. James Spring, and Dr. Nelson Rolf. In October Rob Lane came and talked with the children about fire prevention. He handed out fire safety booklets and hats. IVir. Lane also gave a full show on the fire engine and how it operates. The next month, in Novmeber, retiree J.C. Shaw came and visited during the children ' s Indian unit. The kids and fvlr. Shaw talked about Indian artifacts and were shown several examples. When February came around the children studied dental health. Dr. James Spring came and spoke to them about how to take good care of their teeth. He discussed the imoortance of brushing and flossing.

In doing this the parents had to be involved also. This sweet reading deal lasted four months. Each month the parents and their kids had to sit down together some time or another and read up to four books. If the four books were read the children would bring a note back from the parents saying the reading was done and then the children would receive a doughnut certificate from the teacher. After the four months was up the kin- dergarten students gathered their doughnut certificates up and made a special trip to town. The class went to The Korner Deli and Doughnut Shop. At the doughnut shop each student was given the chance to decorate their own doughnuts. The students found this very fun and exciting. They also found reading very sweet and delicious.

In each session the students went two hours and forty-five minutes twice a week. At North elementary school, the children in preschool had some students from the sixth grade become their pres- chool pals. During each holiday the preschool pals would help the pres- choolers make decorations. At Christmas time they made ornaments out of cinnamon and apples. They colored pumpkins for Halloween, and made valentines for Valentine ' s Day. During Easter they colored eggs. A pic- nic was held for the preschoolers at the end of the year. The preschool class at South School was basically the same as before. The students studied new topics each week. At both elementary schools the students colored, danced, listened to music, and learned about nutrition. Brandi Mallonee and Hadley Arnett take a break.

The PTC raised approximately $2,400 from the dinner with which they purchased playground equipment, maps, basketball shirts, and library books. Along with the dinner, there were also many games and contests, such as a cake walk, bas- ketball toss, and others that helped make it an enjoyable experience for everyone that went. That night, the Senor and Senorita were crowned. They were Ryan Shinn and Brandy Rank, kindergarten, for the lower grades, and Matt Bunch and Darcy Hill, sixth grade, for the upper grades. Shawn Lynch, seventh grade, commented, It was a thrill for Ricky Poling because Darcy Hill is his girlfriend. I thought it was great although I would rather our class won, but they did it for a good purpose. The games were neat and a lot of people had fun. I thought it was pretty good. The food wasn ' t that good, but the games were fun, stated Alisha Friar, fifth grade. Gerald Myers, fifth grade, said, It was pretty fun. The nachos and pop were the best.

Photo by Kara Hash Community works together Exciting, entertaining, hilarious, and just plain funny were the words expressed for the variety show. The variety show was made possible by Mrs. Gaye Lee. The show was to benefit War- saw R-9 North School. The money made was used to buy computers for the school. The variety show was presented before the Warsaw community in February. The talent ran- ged for amateur, to almost professional. Many people of the Warsaw community participated in the show; teachers to students, and dentists to ministers. The name variety show was perfect for the event, for there were many different acts, and no two were the same. The acts consisted of sing- ing, dancing, comedy, magic tricks, and much more. Throughout the show, the Warsaw High School Jazz quintent played toe-tapping music to entertain the audience, and to sooth the savage beasts. The members of the quintet in- cluded: senior, Fred Allen on piano; senior, Mike Higgins on drums; junior, Jason Gronewold on trumpet; freshman. Brad Campbell on saxaphone; and Mr. Anderson on the trombone. The crowd swayed and swooend to the sounds of the jazz quitnent. Other acts were also per- formed. Among them were the Campbell girls: Amber, Amanda, Abby, and Audrey. They, along with the help from Mrs. Marsha Eaton, sang Do Re Mi ; from ' The Sound of Music. Mr. Carleton ' s seventh grade class also con- tributed to the show. They performed a scene from Tom Sawyer. Jason Gott stated, I think the seventh grade boys put a lot of work into the play and did a good job. I want to thank everyone who came to make it possible to get our computers. Andrew Meyer said, I was pretty nervous since it was in front of practically the whole town, but I thought we did a good job. It was a lot of fun with everyone working together; we had a lot of fun, replied Shane Porter. The main event of the evnening was the legs contest. Several men of the Warsaw community entered their nice looking legs in the contest. The excentuated their legs with accessories to match their personalities. The variety show was a huge success. Everyone that participated enjoyed their night in the spotlight. Darcy Hill and Wendy Bybee top dance to a toe topping tune.

Parents and friends filed into the North School gymansium to watch the youngsters perform. The music started and the kindergarten class made their appearance on the gym floor in a single file line. From there the story began. The children sang and acted out the story. Each child had a costume and a part to play of some kind. Crystal Mahan said, I had fun practicing and performing Stone Soup. The Rock Opera Stone Soup went over well. It was really cute and entertaining. The parents seemed to really have enjoyed it. After the musical was over the children rushed over to enjoy cookies and kool-aid for the nice job they did. There were four announcers and they c onsis- ted of: Carly Pickens, Matthew Stephens, Misty Hockman, and Timmy Failla. Also of the main characters there were soldiers and spies. Ryan Shinn, Lathan Cobb, and Jason Estes played the roles of soldiers and Megan Spring, Julie Whitaker, and Jana McMurtry played spies.

During practice, the seventh and eighth grade boys just might be running the trail , while the junior high girls might be playing duck, duck, goose , or tag games. These methods may seem unusual to most people, but they benefit the teams by providing something different, to break the nor- mal everyday practices. Running the trail for the guys meant a mile and a half of woods, rocks, and obstacles, while the girls might be playing tag games. This strengthened the legs, and formed endurance that many times cannot be developed on the track. It also provided a break for the girls and guys. This year ' s junior high track teams had a much bigger turn out than usual. Not only were the teams bigger, but the overall attitude was to strive for the best. The teams had meets ranging from Osage to Knob Noster, to Versailles. Junior high coach. Randy Morrow stated, I ' m really pleased with our seventh graders, be- cause of the number of kids out and their com- petitiveness. Hopefully this will continue in all phases in athletics. Coach Peggy Gilmore, feeling the same as Coach Morrow about the enthusiasm, stated, I ' m really pleased to see the enthusiasm of the junior high in practice and in competition. Row 1: Jonna Stahley.

Photo by Wayne Jackson Success lifts players ' spirit Junior high volleyball and football both ended the year with a winning season. The football team had four consecutive wins, one loss, and one game against California that ended in a tie at zero. Coach Edwards stated, We had a very suc- cessful season. The boys learned several skills which will stay with them in their following years of football. Jonathon Gott excelled in both of- fense and defense. Others such as Shaun Grubb, Roy Johnson, Justin Kindle and Eric Fiores were also standouts at their positions. I was impressed with the leadership of the eighth graders. The seventh grade also shows a great deal of promise for next year. The volleyball team finished the season with a seven and five record. The proud players also received second place in the Green Ridge Tournament. Coach Peggy Gilmore was very proud of the team and she stated, I think they did excep- tionally well considering we only had two girls that came back. I was really impressed with their hussle and attitude they showed in practice and that carried over in the game situations. It was fun. At first I didn ' t think I could make the team but I did. I didn ' t get to play much but it was a fun experience. Hopefully I will get to play next year and make the team. Practice was fun and we played a lot of neat games and learned lots of skills, stated Rachel Newberry, eighth grader.

This was the game the Wildcats had been wailing for all season. The cham- pionship. It was for the title. Sacred Heart had not lost a single game in two years. The Wildcats knew they were the ones to knock the Gremlins off their pedestal. And that they did! The score: 42 to 32 (Warsaw ' s favor) was the proudest and the most deserved of the entire season. Johnathan Gott commented, We had played them before and they were bad sports. We wan- ted revenge! It was a good finale to the season, stated Coach Barry Edwards, ' this was one of the stronger Jr. high teams that Warsaw ' s ever had. Eric Flores, eighth grade said, I feel proud to be a part of the team. I didn ' t realize how good we were until I looked over the scores at the end of the season. r ft Tha throo point shot ctianged basketball strategy so Shawn Grubb practices his shot, f- ' hoto by Brandon Boise Corey Euttler works on his free throw shot.

The Warsaw Girls finished the tournament in second place after playing a close and challeng- ing championship match against the host team LaMonte. The first half was promising, but the excitement faded away in the second half. The final buzzer left the Wildcats short with a score of 35-31. Top scorer for the game was Melanie Wallace with 7 points, and Lori Kirby and Brandi Gripka were leading scorers for the tournament totaling 8 points each. Mental errors cost us the game, but consider- ing that our team consisted of mainly seventh graders, the experience will be invaluable for next year, remarked Coach Peggy Gilmore. This tournament concluded the junior high season leaving the girls with a winning record of 11-6 I Eighth grader Alisha Coffey demonstrates on cor- rect form for a chest pass.

Photo by Kara Hash Boys improve with every game Every game was close but they usually came out winners, was how Coach Bob Campbell described his fifth and sixth grade boys ' basket- ball teams. In order to give the fifth graders more playing time, the sixth grade boys were the Green team and the fifth grade boys were the Black team. Starters for the Green team included: Brandon Morrow, Steve Holmes, Matthew Bunch, Luke Salley and Brandon Goans. Starters for the Black team included: Michael Lemon, Darin Lutman, Chad Beck, Jay Morrison and David Miller. It is a fun game to play because it takes skill. 1 enjoyed playing because my friends played. We improved as the season progressed, said Brandon Morrow, sixth grader. You get to play with your friends to win tournaments. I want to play next year, said Stephen Holmes, sixth grader. Both teams worked on fundamentals as well as defensive and offensive plays. A lot of credit should go to Coach Campbell. He puts in many hours and the boys have ob- viously improved, said Donna Morrison, fifth grade parent. The North School PTC purchased basketball shirts for both girls and boys. ISS Girls win thirteen Learning to work together as a a team was the main goal for Coach Bob Campbell ' s sixth and fifth grade girls ' basketball teams. Girls from both North and South Elementary Schools were selected for the two teams: Green and Black. We are one school district so I want the girls to learn to play together, said Coach Campbell. Starters for the Black team included: Regina Ghann, Angela Potter, Stacey Arnett, Cherilyn Wilson and Sharon England. Starters for the Green team included: Wendy Bybee, Brandi Mallonee, Shannon Bates, Amber Campbell and Darcy Hill. The undefeated Green team won thirteen games. They also brought home three first place trophies: Warsaw Lion ' s Club Tournament, Her- mitage Lion ' s Club Tournament and the Lincoln Jaycee ' s Tournament. The Black team won the second place trophy at Hermitage and the consolation prize at the Warsaw tournament. I played basketball because I like com- petiton, said Shannon Bates, sixth grader. It was exciting to be an undefeated team. I want to continue playing next year, concluded Bates. I like to play with the team and I liked to win. My friends were all a part of my team so I en- joyed being a part of the group, said Darcy Hill, sixth grader. Shannon BatGi contuses the other team with her fancy footwork.

They at- tended home games as well as many away games. Whether it was sitting on the sidelines, cheering for the victory, or playing the National Anthem, the youn- ger students of Warsaw High School al- ways seemed to be involved. The junior high cheerleading squad was one of items that many chose to promote school spirit. The squad in- cluded girls from seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. But all these students had one single purpose in mind. ..that was to raise the Wildcat spirit! This younger squad practiced hard to achieve their goal, and succeeded with both the girls and the boys ' teams finishing the season with winning totals. Members of the squad said that cheerleading was the most fun they had ever had, and that they would definitely Melissa Atkins, Carrie Button, and Angela Campbell yell for the victory. Photo by Dustm jr. high band 1 8 cheerleading ■ designed by angle young do it again next year. In this case, their hours of hard work did pay off! Junior high band also worked hard to raise the Wildcat spirit. Music was an important part of these students ' lives. Whether it was listening to the radio, lis- tening to a tape, or making their own kind of music, students were involved. Students in the junior high band learned more about the music they all love by participating. And they also prepared for the time when they will be- come part of the senior high band, and march in the pre-game of the varsity football games. School spirit will be greatly helped by these additions to the band. They will work just as hard and will keep the school spirit at the highest point possible. The Wildcat Spirit was at its highest. And the junior high organizations are a big part of the boost. Junior High Ctieerleader include Row 1: Carrie Button. Row 2: Angle Watkins. Angela Campbell. Trinka Day. and Melissa Atkins.

Ptxjio by Dustin Lear Those who care enough to do their best What is a janitor? A cook? A secretary? Most people don ' t tully understand tiieir responsibility to be able to truly answer these questions. Even though the janitor works thoroughly to keep the elementary schools clean, many students take them for granted, expecting that last missed paper was heading for the trash to be picked up. However, they never fail to mop the floors of the halls, bathrooms, and classrooms. That is what ' s so special about them. The cooks dedicate their hours to cook well- balanced, nutritious meals for all people in the school. Although many people just take them for granted, this never lets them down as they greet each student with a hot lunch. Students also needed the transportation to get to school. The bus drivers took care of this. Of- ten times paperwad fights would break out and the bus drivers would be left with the mess. Secretaries not only keep the school running smoothly, but they also tend to the students ' needs. They are working constantly and when they aren ' t typing a report, a student comes into the office with a bloody nose. It is amazing how these poor souls can enjoy it. All of them do, however. They are always will- ing to cheer a student up who looks like he needs it. Best of all this isn ' t part of their job. This is done out of their own pleasure. 190 elementary personnel designed by jason gronewold R.L Brown, awaits a busy day of messy halls and dirty rooms of ttie South Elementary School.

These women were all a part of the fashion show put on by the Warsaw Hair Clinic and Tanning Salon. The curtians opened introducing the audience to the scene of a hairdresser primping the hair of a woman in a black cape. When the hair stylist finished the ' 1inal touches , the cape came off and the models strutted to the beat of popular rock music. Ths scene was only the introduction of great summer hairstyles and wardrobes from the Ladybug. mThe second half of the show was considered the Grand Finale. Again the models sat in a chair, but this time the hairdresser fixed weird and exotic hairstyles. When finished, the model stood up and flirted with the audience. With beautiful and outrageous evening gowns from Treva ' s Tux and Lace, the models were transposed Into the innocent and the wild. The fashion show was put on in part by Red- ken beauty products. Months of hard work and planning was put in by the employees of the Hair Clinic and many others. The great talents of the hairstylists; Diane Rose, Robyn Arnett. Liz Hol- lingsworth, and Cheri Rose made the show a great success. It was fun and exciting to get dressed up with a weird hairdo and model. said Michelle Wal- lace, junior.

(Jill Bybee), thfows a tantrum when Bertie aerrell Mizell) tells her she ' s spoiled. The bifds, Rachel Shinn, Emily Lane, Chris Wagoner, and John Slavens tell Bunny Sue that rabbits should hop. Get Hoppin ' ! In a part of the country called Devonshire Down, lived a family of rabbits in a hole in the ground. There was Mother and Father and Bertie and Bea, the four oldest members of the rabbit family. There was Betty and Bobby and Benjamin, tco, and the smallest of all of them was Bunny Sue. Bunny Sue was a stubborn little rabbit who would not hop. No one, not even Dr. Brown could get her to try. Bunny Sue ' s brothers and sisters insisted that she was just spoiled. Bunny Sue saw the birds flying, and wished that she could fly too. The birds told her not to be silly, hopping is what she should do. Then she passed a stream and she saw the fish. Again Bunny Sue began to wish. The fish said Don ' t even try. Bunny Sue, hopping is the thing for rabbits to do! Then one day, she stumbled upon a family having a picnic. She heard the radio playing and, in spite of herself, began to hop. And when she arrived at Devonshire Down, she asked all her family to gather around. Watch me everybody, watch me everyone, I learned how to hop and it ' s really great fun! The answer was simple, as simple can be. Bunny had musical talent, you see. She was such a great dancer, they sent her away, to study at Miss Hopper ' s School of Ballet. And news cross the country says early next tall, she ' ll be hopping her heart out at Carnegie Hall. So all of the animals and townspeople, too will be going to New York to watch her debut. 219 Smith, Rebecka; 159 Southers, Lydia; 153 Spaulding, Chris; 154 Spencer, Erin; 166 Spencer, Scott; 161 Spring, Dr. Jim; 165, 175 Spring, Megan; 165, 166, 175 Stahley, Jonna; 138 Stanley, Nicole; 138 Stanley.

Though one may have had a small circle of close friends, he knew almost everyone. There were things that stood out in one ' s mind, and though they may not have seemed important to those who didn ' t share it, it will always hold a special place in the heart. One thing remained, however, that everyone at Warsaw High School shared, and that was the time spent here, together. Tracy Martin, alias Bertha , remember when you broke three bottles of rubber cement in one day, (in one hour)? Gina Crabtree, remember Prom? The science club trip? Heather, Tracy, and Heather, remember when you were stalked late one Friday night while working on the yearbook? Kim Flippin, remember when you were chosen to National Honor Society? Chuck Martin, remember when you were elec- ted Junior class president? Kirsten Gott, remember the ' lights in weight training? Stacy Taylor, remember when you, Laura, and Shirl went to Fuel Mart at two a.m.? Dwayne Davis, remember the Blair Oaks football game? Heather Lynch, remember your sixteenth birthday? Laura Cadger, remember when you were chased by a police dog? Everyone, remember Lorri Boston Johns. These memories have been carried all this, time. Keep them.

Photo by Nancy Stone Editor quits With each new school year students were given the opportunity to start again. They could set new goals, make new friends, strive for bet- ter grades and learn new skills. Many students, especially seniors, felt that they had been at school forever. However, each new day brought changes and unique experiences that could only occur at WHS. Where else could a weary yearbook staff stay up all night with Mrs. C and munch on corn chips while brainstorming on outlines and copy? Warsaw High School also had an interesting situation occur the day when everyone mistook Chris Thixton for Coach Dixon. Accounting II also had the unusual experience of trying to help their teacher figure out the new computer simulation without the instructions. Some students had gone to the R-IX system all of their lives and others moved here from all over the country. But once they were here every year they could say, Here we are again. 4 --■■• ' -iiA closing .
