Q RAN ff 2 4' KC welcomes soccer lndoor soccer is relatively new, but not for long, since the Kansas City Comets have began to make their stan here. The team was formally the San Francisco Fog and before that, The Detroit Lightening, but that's considering the Major Indoor Soccer League has been around for only four short years. The game is played indoors, of course, on a carpeted hockey rink, within the plexiglass. There are no penalties fOr kicking the ball off the sides of the walls or the plexiglass. lfthe ball flies into the stands, there is no penalty, unless, it was deliberate. KCMO will have shown eight of the firstgames ontelevision. All,earlyinthe season. Other games were broadcasted on KCMOam. The game was created with the idea of television in mind, this way, there won't be any problems when it comes to reworking the game for tevelivision viewers. While working on the advertisement for the new club in Kansas City, they wanted something that would practicallygrabtheviewers at home. So, they first chose the color of the carpet, bright green was chosen. Then they needed something to keep the viewers eyes on the ball, no matter how fast it wastraveling. Abrightorangeorfire red made a spalsh on the screen when taped, so it was chosen. Now, ifyou wantto see another soccer game, you don't have to watch Soccer Made in Germany , you can go down to Kemper Arena and get yourself a ticket for a game sometime. To get the people acquainted with the idea of indoor soccer, players went out to the community and held clinics. Several players came to the Kansas City Kansas Community College and helped kids of every age improve their abilities in soccer. Some even came to practices and gave some pointers in exercises to improve skills. This sport has not yet caught on completely in outschool district, but this has not stopped students from finding a place thev could participate in the dame. faxaxam 3 Below' Wally and the Beaver ' d Below: Getting a bite to eat at the zoo, ' .

Sights seen in cit When do you ever get to see the beauty in our city, and surrounding area, unless you go to prom and then your date and yourself to to some fancy restaurant. Well, it needn't be that way and you needn't feel that it has to be that way either. Even if you can't afford to goto the top of the crown, you can always go to the Plaza around Christmas and enjoy the world famous lights. You don't have to attend the lighting ceremony and vear the chilly wind to see the spectacular sight, but you can go down anytime between Thanksgiving and the day after Christmas. Literally hundreds of people turn out to see the ceremony and get a glimpse of the celebrity helping out at the ceremony with Santa Claus, if you still believe in him. Other sights that can be seen any other time of year are all of he artwork and displays at the Nelson An Gallery and Museum. There are, for those who prefer it that way, the traditional look in the Arts. Or for the liberals in the crowd, modern artwork, such as a juicy looking corn cob dripping with butter. There you can watch little kids go up to it and see if it is an actualcorn cob. 4 ln Topeka, the zoo club is trying to raise enough money, so as to buy more animals for their grownng zoo. lt is a relatively new zpo, but it isjust as interesting, if not more. lt hasa tropical rain forest, were these animals actually do roam aboutwithoutanyconfimnents.

Arts flourish in KC The Arts in Kansas City have begun to flourish again. They were once barelyto be seen or heard from, now they are beginning anew, although the government has outback in this department. I ne Midland and the Starlight Theatre have traveled over rough and wild roads, but now are on their roads to recovery. At the Stralight, musical productions such as Grease and West Side Story have replaced others such as Three Girls Three. Tl'l9dlff9f9llC6'iS that the first two musicals are appealing toa Iargeraudience. The Midland has provided ballets and operasto entertain those who go for a little more formal production. If your in for a concert, either a rock, country, inspirational or classicalg Memorial Hall can provide the outlet for you. As far as the movies go, the largest theater is at Indian Springs Shopping Center, off State Avenue. lt also is making a comeback in the entertainment department. Origionally, there were four theatres that provided movies that weren't exactly the newest shows. But then, the movies started to change, there were more people attending and there was a need to make more money to provide more of what the people wanted. So, there were six moretheatresinthelower level at the shopping mall. The origional four became Springs North and the newer six became Springs South , The old Folly Theatre which had burlesque shows, when they were in style has come alive again. Featuring Broadway hits like, A Chorus Line and others. The theatre being revived and brought back to life has really boosted the moral of thosewho lived at thattime. Or have studied that era.

But those were shattered when Shawnee Mission South defeated Washington 6-0 in game two. We played a good game defensively. We just couldn't hit off of them, said head coach Forrest Miles The Wildcats finished the season out with a 12-10 record. Washington started off well by winning their first six games. The next opponent was Ward, who defeated the Wildcats twice in a double header. Those two defeats started the Vthldcats on a six game losing skid. Washington halted the losing streak by beating Shawnee Mission North 10-1 in the first game of a double header. Home games were held on the baseball diamond west of the field. Vththout a fence, the Wildcats were at an advantage because of power hitters Ted Foundopolis, Eric Behrman, Larry Beashore, and David Stuckey, who all hit home runs. The 1981-82 team is under the leadership of new Head Coach Bruce Gibb, last season's assistant coach. We should do very well this year. We onlylost four players to graduation and have eight returning lettermen, said Coach Gibb. Washington starts the season at home against Olathe South.

Colon Wins state title Being the only junior to come home with a state championship in Wildcat history, Kevin Colon was only one of four from Washington to qualify for the State Meet. Others who qualified to compete in the meet were Jeff Easterwood, Preston Thomas and Otha Cole, senior. Out of these four Kevin was the only one to place in the meet. T 'VlflnlflQlUfT1pWas a leap of six feet eight inches, though Kevin's longest jump of the year was six feet ten inches, which gives him the second best jump in Washington history. The team began the year by winning the Shawnee Mission Northwest Quadrandrangular and also ended the season strong by placing third in the Regional Meet held at at Shawnee Mission Northwest. The Wildcats also finished first at the Emporia State Relays. Only the first place winners won medals and again the Vlhldcats brought home more medals than any other school. Only four lettermen returned for the 1981 track season. They were Jeff Easterwood, Preston Thomas, Kevin Colon. Helping the Wildcats to place in the Regional Meet was Preston Thomas who won the long the long jump at that meet, and Kevin Colon who placed second in the high jump. lthinktheteamdidafinejobthoughl think we should have sent more of our boys tothe State Meet.

Another highlight of the season was the girls winning the Kansas City Kansas League meet. It wasa goal Coach Ferrell had set at the beginning of the year. First place in 'the league meet is between Wyandotte and us, said Coach Ferrell. The girls also made a strong showing at the regional meet. The Wildcats finished third overall and got two relay teams qualified for state. The girls track team was the winningest spring sport this year, said Coach Ferrell.

Rugged competition challenges Starting the season with only four returning letter winners, the 1980-8' Golf Team faced tough competition. Practicing every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at Sunflower Golf Course, Coach Wayne Lathrop's squad gained needed experience. We faced tough competition against all the Shawnee Mission schools. But theteam had good enthusiasm and good players. Beingthe only girlonthe team, Sharry Dercher, is in a position where she had to compete with the guys. I feel as if l have to work harder to compete with the guys. This is an experience because my skill improves. golfers One of the highlights of the season was when Sharry had the best score at one of their meets. One thing that hurt the golf team was the number of players. There were only twelve students who signed up and only eight of them showed up for practice. Mr. Lathrop commented that this is a disadvantage because it doesinot give him the opportunity to teach the game. ln order to be more successful inthe future, Coach Lathrop feels that there is a need for more players and more junior golf programs at area golf courses. lt is a thrill to make any shot, but it's only fun if you play and you have to participateto enjoy. va ' M341 Y ..

We only have one senior returning from last year's team, which is Bruce, said Mr. Ed Hosk- ings, head coach. The tennis team started off the season this year with a tournament against Shawnee Mission South and other teams attending the invitational. In all the tournaments the team will be facing some pretty tough competition, ac- cording to Coach Hoskings. Sticking to a steady workout, the tennis team practiced until 5:00 on weekdays and also practiced on Saturday mornings. Having three returning lettermen this season the tennis team still expects to do well. The three returning are Terry Ander- son, Bruce Breedlove, and David Hickett. I think I'll do a lot better this year than I did last year as a sophomore. One and two singles are going to have tough com- petition though, Terry Anderson. According to Mr. Ed Hosking, the team is expected to do well in sections four, five, and six of the singles, and also in doubles competition. The weak points will be in singles one and two. Another weak point of the team will be that the players are so young with so little experience. S gg wwwswae W disk..

All of the teams were really good. fan- tastic competition, and the girls are proud that they did so well, said coach. Laura Overeen after one of the best seasons Washington girls team has ever had. Washington competed in a tournament in Lawrence and that tournament showed the potential of the girls team. The highlight of the tournament was the setting of a new school record by the 400 meter freestyle relay team, consisiting of Kristen Jensen. Laura Docking, Erin Walsh, and junior Susan Morrow. They beat the old record of 4212.5 with a new time of 4:11.4. Another record setting performance came again from junior Susan Morrow, ,i X ie 3 .1 .k.. mm --s e-. f ' N..

HWe played well at times, but when we needed the big plays, we just didn't come up with them, said coach Larry Harless, By not getting the big plays, the Wildcats had to scratch for points. Kevin Colon, senior running back, gained 855 yards on 131 carries leading all rushers. Jeff Hicks had a good season at quarterback com- pleting 50fZ, of his passes for 483 yards. Although the Wildcats record was a los- ing one, the season wasnlt without its crucial games and plays. One of the most important plays against league foe Ward was an 82 yard touchdown run by Kevin Colon that was called back Left Center: Picking up speed, Kevin Col- on, sr., sweeps around left end.

The game films proved the call wrong even though the Wildcats still lost the game 13-7. Another important game in the hunt for the league title was the night Washingotn faced Harmon. Harmon seemed to dominate the game, leading in every category except turnovers and defeated the Wildcats 14-0. That game deflated the Wildcats hopes for alrepeat championship. With a strong sophomore team and a competent JV squad, the varsity hopes look brighter. I feel there are better things in the future for the upcoming Wildcats, said Harless.

JV gains experience, waiting for next year Without much in the way of returning, experienced players, the Wildcat junior varsity had a long and rough season this past year. We could have done better but the sophomores that played definitely gained experiencefsaid Coach Dennis Perrin. But the downfall of the JV squad cannot be aimed at the sophomores that played for the Wildcats. The sophomores finished the season with a 7-1 record and took the league crown. By putting all their effort in the sophomore games combined with more experience that the other teams had, the Wildcats 3-5 record didn't seem too impressive. Team leadership had certainly helped the young Wildcats this season, and I feel there are better things in the future for the upcoming sophomores, said Varsity Head Coach Larry Harless. The experience gained by all the players will certainly be helpful in the next year for the varsity team. Most of the JV players played in two games a week, and according to all the coaches there is not a better way to learn than to be in a game situation. But the overall look for the future JV teams is a good one according to Perrin, and he is looking forward to a winning season next year for the Wildcats.

Although Washington finished with one of the worst match records in history, the girls made matches out of some of their defeats. u Another close match was the games against Bonner at a tournament held at Kansas City Kansas Community College. The Wildcats defeated the Braves in the first game of the match, but not before Washington lost a little poise. I was standing out there and everyone ran off the court and we still needed one But the best match, according to some of the players, was the match against Ward. t'We played our best against Ward, said captain, Rhonda Bohs. We should have won, but we got tired towards the end of the hour long game. Although the team encountered internal problems, the Wildcats never gave up.

At the beginning of the season Wayne Hobelmann, head coach, had only one returning letterman, eight boys and two girls actively practicing. The first meet at Shawnee Mission Park, where the team placed last, sort of told the story of what kind of a season that the team would have.

Wildcat mat men off to best start in years Although the Wildcat individual records don't seem too impressive, don't let them fool you into beleiving that their team record is slouching. For the second straight year, Washington was off to their best record yet with a 7-1 start. Last season the Wildcats compiled a 9-2 dual record. We have 49 wrestlers out for the season, said Coach Larry Harles. When I started coaching wrestling two years ago, we hadn't won a dual meet in four years. Now you can see how far this pro- gram has come along. Progress can be seen in the individual records that the Wildcat wrestlers possess. Ron Elmer leads the Wildcat wrestlers with a 6-0 mat record. Following on the list of good records are Mike Beaty, Matt Morovac, David Powers, and Pat Cunningham with 7-1 mat records. Doug Spangler is next on the list with an 6-2 mat record.

Taking over the job this year as head coach was Miss Margaret Kolarik. Her team consisted of only seven men with on- ly three returning lettermen and only four of the seven have swum on a team before. The swim team this year is good, but it doesn't have much depth. The main thing is that the kids are very enthusiastic, said Q X elf das X '- l Y v i . -1 Coach Kolarik. All kinds of different goals were met by each member of the team but the biggest goal which was set by few members was to qualify for state. Not only did the swim- mers set goals for themselves, but Coach Kolarik set goals for the team. Her largest and most important goal is to see her en- tire team qualify for the state meet. The team has done quite well consider- ing injuries and other ailments. Everyone pulled his own weight and I'm proud of all of them, said Coach Kolarik.

The Wildcats' losing streak continued against Harmon and Lincoln Academy but broke the dry spell against Sumner by defeating the Sabres 48-44. 'tlt was a big win for us.

Wyandotte's team could be the best since their 1969 teamf' said coach Elliot. Washington then played Shawnee Heighs and defeated the Thunderbirds 66-63 but needed overtime to do it. The Wildcats were led by Jack Hall and Don Herron who each scored 16 points on the night. Then the Wildcats faced the Schlagle Stallions and jumped out to a 10-0 lead only to falter in the later stages of the game and lose 60-47. Washington then traveled to Wichita to play in the annual Wichita South tourna- ment. According to coach Elliot, he hopes that the tournament would provide a turn around for the Wildcats.

Adaptability assists JM through season When the basketball season gets under- way both players and coaches know that change is evident. But for the Wildcat boys junior varsity squad that changes came early. The kids were real adaptable to changej' said coach Jim Super. Only two players that started at the beginning of the season are still starting, Tony Smith and Mark Snyder. Milton Garner and Stacey Newton moved up to varsity and that makes it tough to play when you don't have any substitutes. Without the needed substitutes the Wildcats run out of gas late in the game, as evidenced by a 63-62 loss to Shawnee Mis- sion West. The Wildcats were ahead most of the way but only seven players played and Washington got tired and lost the lead and the victory. But the loss was only the fifth setback out of 15 games. And the Wildcats worst defeat came at the hands of the Harmon Hawks who defeated the Wildcats 59-51. Some of the victories the Wildcats have had were also close wins. Washington's victory over Ward 67-66 came in the final second of the game. Ward made a basket with two seconds left and called timeout, but they didn't have any timeouts left so they were assessed a technical foul with one second left on the clock and the score knotted at 66. Steve Holstrom poised himself at the free throw line and sank the shot for the victory. But of all the improvements in the team, Mark Snyder is the standout in the eyes of coach Super. Mark is the most improved and without him it hurts us dramatically. He's a tremendous asset to this team, said Super. S Q. K M,-fy i--mgffg ig :A . S X N 5 , . w 5 R S g ' 'V--E:E:i9k5:..-?

'tThe key to success is the cooperation between the players and working as one and not as each player for himself, said Mr. Dennis Perrin, sophomore coach. The success of the team is awarded to Coach Perrin, and help from those who contributed great effort. This seasons standouts were Mike Brown, Lydell Irvin, Raymond Mitchell, Roy Richards, Milton Springfield, Rodney Tatom, and Randy White. The Wildcats really showed their talent when they blew past the Harmon Hawks with a 64-29 victory. Leading the sophomores to their win by netting 12 points was Lydell Irving. The Wildcats went on to abuse Schlagle by defending them with a score of 62-52 in the second game of the season. The rest of the season went the same with the Wildcats defeating all opponents except for the owsom Wyandotte Bulldogs.

'tWe only have 5 returning letter winners and only one of them starts for us now. said Coach Wayne Lathrop. Not only does the lack of experience hurt the Wildcats. the lack of height and intensi- ty have played major roles in each of the Wildcat's games. 'tWe are short and definitely lack inten- sity, said Nancy Orel, junior. When we get behind we get frustrated and panic a little bit, so we don't play our game. Even though the girls record stood at 3-10 just past the midway point of the season, some of the games proved to be ex- citing. The girls were 1-2 in the Kansas City Kansas League when they faced Schlagle. at Washington. The game came down to the last few seconds when Pam Williams put up a shot from inside the lane and the ball rimmed out. Thus the Wildcats record dropped to 1-3 in league play. The next game the Wildcats faced Shawnee Heights and defeated them 32-29. Washington lead all the way. but a poor third quarter let the Thunderbirds get back in the ballgame. Again this season the Wildcats par- ticipated in the Shawnee Mission North- west Tournament and took seventh place, Washington faced Lee's Summit, who won the tournament. in the first round and lost.

JV quad difficulties Without experience and all team members being sophomores the Wildcat Girls Junior Varsity Basketball squad found some difficulties. The team has improved coming from an 0-8 record to a now 2-13 record. They at least have something to look forward to in the years to come, said Nancy Orel, var- sity girls basketball player. The girls played some pretty tough com- petition but kept the games close. When playing Shawnee Mission South the girls came back from a ten point defecit to come within one goal of tieing the game. The team then came back and showed their skills by defeating the Harmon Hawks in two games straight. The Hawks gave the Wildcats a fight but couldn't defeat the young players. The inexperience and youngness of the team have shown, but the defeat against Harmon has also shown there is hope for the team next year, said Head Coach Wayne Lathrop.

The Comets play a sport which is relatively new to this area, soccer. And they play a different brand of soccer, in- door soccer. The Comets are members of the Major Indoor Soccer League, CMISLJ. Even with a new club, the team and organization has had its problems. Getting the club moved from San Francisco was the first major obstacle. Club president Tracey Lieveke made some arrangements with the city and got the club a lease for the use of Kemper Arena. But the problems didn't stop there. The Comets have gone through three coaches and the season wasn't even half over. The first coach didn't even get to coach a prac- tice before he was axed. The Comets then hired Luis Dabo who coached the team to a 2-7 record before he was releived of his duties to be replaced by Pat McBride. He is the coach we wanted all along, said Tracey Lieveke. We felt we needed a change and wanted some different players in the team. Above: Going up for the rebound is Sandy Kohler who scored 20 points in the Wildcats state championship game.

Far Right: The 1980-81 Washington Wildcat Girls Varsity Basketball team that finished second in the state tourna- ment last year in Topeka. Wildcat girls second in state tournment For the first time in the school's history, the Wildcat girls varsity basketball team made it to the class 6A state championship game during the 80-81 season. The girls faced Topeka, ranked number 1 in the tournament, and fell by the score of 40-32. But the loss did not cloud the Wildcat's Cinderella season. Before the girls could get to the state tournament, they had to win all their games in sub-state. Washington faced Olathe in the first game and trampled the Eagles 56-24. In the championship game of the sub-state tournament, Washington played Shawnee Mission Northwest and defeated the Cougars 57-31. Then came the biggest chance for the Wildcats to gain some state recognition, playing in the 6A state tournament. Washington did not let the pressure get to them as they defeated number 2 seeded Great Bend, 42-32. The game was definite- ly an upset because Washington was rank- ed jth in the tourney. Washington was outscored in the first half, down by 9 at the end of two quarters. But the defecit did not discourage Coach Wayne Lathrop. I told the girls at the half we could get back in the game if everyone gave it their all. Well, they certainly did . Washington closed the gap to just two points on eight successive points by Sandy Kohler, who finished with 20 points. But Topeka pulled away and eventually defeated the Wildcats. The Wildcat's Cinderella season had come to an end. Washington finished with a 15-9 record, the best in the last two years. But without the state championship, the tournament could seem like a total loss. Not so, as the Washington supporters and pep club were awarded the state Sports- manship Award, the first for Washington. TWQFZ-mf? , -'ix Second half dashes Chiefs playoff hope When you have a young team and a lot of enthusiasm, you can produce a winner. Just ask Chiefs coach Marv Levy. We went with young players this year. Joe Delaney made a big difference for us this year, said Marv Levy. We are building for the future, but I am still dissappointed that we didn't make the playoffs. Making the playoffs is the goal of all of the teams in the National Football League KNFLJ, but the Chiefs haven't been in the playoffs since 1971, when they lost to Miami in the leagues longest game, 27-24. But for a while this season, the Chiefs had a good shot at making the playoffs. The first eight games for the Chiefs were big ones according to Marv Levy. If they did well in those games, the Chiefs had a chance at the playoffs. The Chiefs won six of those first eight and were well on their way, or at least they thought so. The most crucial game was played in San Diego, and if the Chiefs won it would have virtually assured them a playoff berth. But San Diego had something else in mind. With 22 seconds left on the clock, the The Chargers' Rolf Berniscke kicked a 38 yard field goal to defeat the Chiefs 22-20. For the first time in eight years, the Chiefs had a winning record, 9-7. After the 6-2 start, the Chiefs could only win three of their last eight but that was enough to give the Chiefs that winning record that had been so elusive. The final victory, a 10-0 triumph over the Minnesota Vikings was the biggest victory of the season according th Marv Levy. A winning season gives a better outlook on the seasons ahead, especially next year when the Chiefs are expected to be more experienced and again be in the hunt for a playoff berth.

Well, Mr. Elmer Thomas, who has been the truant officer for the past five years at this school, tried, but the plan was discovered with one phone call. Four other kids called up for each other, fifteen minutes apart, saying that they wouldn't be in school that day, posing as that student's father. What they did not ex- pect was for the school to call his mother and check the story out. You then might have wondered why he became a truant officer, and the answer would be that he wanted to help kids. If they have a problem, he wants them to be able to go to him and talk about it. That is why he spends so much time talking with students. There are some who think that anyone seen talking with Mr. Thomas is in some sort of trouble with the school. This is not always true. If a student is actually in trouble with the school for being truant, Mr. Thomas doesn't take care of it himself g he will go and pick up that person and take them to Mr. Todd. Mr. Todd will then arrange to have a hearing with the student's parents, so the student can make up for the lost time. Very few are sent to I.S.S. Instead, they are put to work. Most of the time, they pick up the trash around the school. W - Tiifb? There have been students who have grown to dislike him, because he had to continually bring them in and a few have made threats against his life. He said, that they really didn't mean it, they were just mad and weren't too bright. Mr. Thomas does other things besides checking on students including helping faculty members out if they have a pro- blem. This is why he enjoys working with the faculty here. We have the best faculty and ad- ministration in the system, said Mr. Thomas. Mr. Thomas said that any students with a problem is welcome to come up and talk to him. And if there is any way possible, he will help them out. Top Right: Mr. Elmer Thomas, security guard.

Below Right: Two new librarians were ad- ded this year, Ms. Lucy Ashley and Mr. Tom Whipple. Whipple likes library With backgrounds in physics, chemistry. and baseball, former construction worker- plumbing inspector-college teacher Mr. Tom Whipple was one of the most colorful additions to the Washington staff this year. Seemingly always enthusiastic, Mr. Whipple, Washington's new reference librarian, greted both jokes about his name and sophomores who could not find the Reader's Guide with equal good humour. He said he viewed his job as a combina- tion of a learning experience and puzzle solving. Because he would often find himself hun- ting for things students could not find, Mr. Whipple said he was able to take pleasure from helping students learn and from lear- ning himself. Having already achieved a Master's degree in English before becoming a librarian, Mr. Whipple had taught at Rockhurst College before coming to Washington. While working as a teacher at Rockhurst, he used the library alot and became interested in it. In the library you can use all the knowledge that you have collected over the years and not let it go to waste like it would in many other jobs, Mr. Whipple said. He then withdrew from teaching for a year to take courses in the area. After becoming involved in library science, Mr. Whipple said he had difficulty comprehending why there was not more enthusiasm about the subject. I don't understand why more men don't become librarians. But most likely it's because women seem smarter and have more insight than men, Mr. Whipple said. ,MW Above: The maintenance day shift kept the school clean and well organized while the students were in class.

Well, when the North Central Evaluation came to Washington some may not have cared, and others were just happy to get out of school an hour early on the 16th. Then, several groups of students were ran- domly chosen to sit with an evaluator and talk about the school.

Twenty-one evaluators, each specializing in a different area, came to, more or less, check up on our school. The purpose was to investigate school procedures, the curriculum, plus the faculty and students. After discussing the pros and cons of each department with the teachers in that area and a few involved students, they were to give a report on certain things that stood out in this school. But first, our faculty came up with several points that might interest you. They found, actually stated, that there were too many clicks within the student body. Also, there was a limited amount of contact between the surrounding com- munity and the school, their reason being, the district boundaries. This second point was said to be a great weakness. Now, for what the evaluators compiled. They found there to be a lack of school spirit, that is reflected in the fact that girl's sports are not emphasized enough.

Mr. Silvester Morris was given an interest in teaching that carried him overseas for six years and eventually to Washington High School. Mr. Morris said teaching is a hobby for him and he loves teaching french and his students. He says he does not hate anyone. Mr. Morris said that when he comes into class. he says Bonjour Classef' and the way his students respond to him tells him whether or not it is going to be a good class. He said that he wants his students to speak freely. Mr. Morris also said that talking a foreign language like french is important because it increases your speaking skills, even if you do not go to a foreign country. Before coming to school Mr. Morris prepares by doing exercises and thinks about what he would like to do in his classes for the day. When he is feeling down in his luck, he just comes into his class, and he feels bet- ter. gf, Kolarik meets goal as coach A childhood dream is being fulfilled, at least in part, by Miss Margaret Kolarik, age 22, who joined the Washington faculty as head boy's and girl's swim coach as well as a health, first aid and PE teacher. Miss Kolarik never swam competively during her high school years, but as a girl her career goal was to become a coach. She pursued her goal in college at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas, by majoring in physical education and health. A chance to fulfill her dream was given her when she was offered the job of swim coach at Washington. The new coach was optimistic about her teams. t'The kids are very enthusiastic, she said. However, Miss Kolarik indicated that the team did face a few problems. 'tThe team this year is good, but it doesn't have much depth, said Miss Kolarik. She added that the swim team talent was good and that she was confident that they were performing at the top of their ability. Swimming is not all that Miss Kolarik is interested in. On June 26 she plans to marry Mr. Dennis Whalen of Atchison, Kansas. They plan to have four to six children and live in the Kansas City area. She herself came from a family of 11 and was born in Huron, South Dakota. She attended St. Anne's Elementary School, then entered Bishop Miege, a junior high school and high school combin- ed.

Mr. Meares is the only psychology teacher at Washington and he teaches it all five hours. He said, There are more classes in psychology here than at any other school. An unusual thing he does is to hand out a schedule to his students which contains all of the assignments for the year. He says it took him six years to figure it our because it helps the students who want to get ahead. Melonie Zenon, senior, stated, he gives us plenty of time to study and read assignments, then he explains them well enought I can understand. I enjoy the class. Mr. Meares feels that 'tpsychology is the most interesting area anyone can get intof' However, he said he never wanted to become a psychologist because he would rather teach and share with students than work with someone on an individual level. Another responsibility he has is his assistant sponsorship of the senior class which he has been envolved with for several years because he enjoys working with the modern student. My high school days were a drag com- pared to the previleges and sophistication of students today. he reflected. Mr. Meares is married and has no children except a Siamese cat named Tif. Some of his hobbies include music, golf and photography. He also likes to travel. Mr Wright believes in perfection in concert Demanding perfection from each and every one of his singers is Mr, Donald Wright, vocal music teacher. In years past, Mr. Wright conducted several choirs in school and more outside of school, but because of the bussing situa- tion, it has become an impossibility. In all, there were five extra-curricular choirs. Two madrigal choirs, a sophomore madrigal, a sophomore girls ensemble and a girls ensemble. These smaller choirs gave students a chance to participate in many more concerts. Since 1967, Mr. Wright has been direct- ing the musical each year. Those that he has liked the best were Briggaddon and Man of La Mancha for different reasons. When asked about the things he dislikes in the musicals he said it was working afterwards with students who didn't make it. He did say, though, he hasn't had too many problems in the last two years. So, to help those in the future who will try out for a lead, Mr. Wright looks for singers, dancers and actors. He looks for those who can fit the part they are trying out for and if they can fit the part physi- cally, if they look good on stage, both men and women. Mr. Wright does not know however, what musical will be done next year, but he demands the best from every actor and singer when the time comes.

They are the prospective sophomore class, this year the class of 84. Also each year, the sophomores face the same problems that beseech them when they weref becoming seventh graders at their respective junior highs. dt'Where is room 240'?...How do I get to the gym?... are few of the many ques- tions that sophomores have in the first week of school. I had a few problems but the students and teachers were generally nice and helped me find my way around the school, said sophomore Kelly Mayhue. But by the end of the first week, many sophomores became more acquainted with the school with the help of the orienta- tion assemblies presented by the ad- ministration. During one hour each week, the ad- ministration presented a different aspect of the school to the sophomores, Basics such as school rules and the dress code were discussed. But maybe more important to the students was the meeting when the various clubs came to introduce their club. This was one of the first steps that made the sophomores become a part of the school and not just the new kids on the block.

The Winter Formal and the Homecom- ing dances were held in the first semester, which just leaves the Prom in the second semester. This year the Winter Formal was held at the Sheraton Royal, just south of the Truman Sports Complex., on January 30.

Students were able to bowl, ice skate, and shoot pool for a total of 84.00. The game room was also open, but you had to pay to play each individual machine. The wide variety of entertainment was worth the 54.00 that I paid, said Mike Orel, sophomore. After King Louie, a popular place that students went was Perkins for breakfast. The restaurant is usually crowded, so many students got there early. There were about 350 people that attend- ed this years King Louie Night which made it a success and assured an attempt for another next year.

By playing on an athletic team in their sophomore year, a player can gain ex- perience that will help them throughout the season and their future playing seasons. The first year can be a tough one for some players but they can practice and get ready for the varsity action they may see in the next two years.

On an average week the sophomore cheerleaders could be soon wearing their uniforms three to four times. Once this year they were required to wear their uniforms the entire week. In their spare time the cheerleaders shopped together for shirts to wear in- derneath their uniforms, and for shorts and T-shirts to wear at the cheerleading camp that they went to this past summer, at the University of Kansas.

It is a mind boggler, and a brain teaser. There are six sides to the cube with six dif- ferent colors surrounding the cube. The ob- ject is to get all of one color on one side at the same time as the other side. It might sound easy, but it is not. So- meone has now come out with a book on how to conquer the cube. The book is highly priced at S10.00. It must be selling because there are some people conquering the cube. . In light of the Rubiks Cube, another game with the sarne objective has been in- troduced. But this time, instead of a cube, it is a triangle. Will this madness ever stop? Above Right: The confusing Rubik's Cube is popular among many students here at Washington.

Students also received copies of the Washington Student Hand- book to introduce and remind them of the rules.

The biggest seller this year was the Roll- ing Stones who sold out two shows. Selling out two shows might seem like much, but when 17,000 people attend two shows, that is incredible! They were better by far the second night. Jagger didn't go out in the crowd the first night, said Tammy Thruman, soph. T-shirts are the most popular item bought at a concert. Many students wear the shirts the day after the concert. A lot of money is raked in by the groups, and high school students provide a lot of that income. Commercials influence identity The emotional effects of today's com- mercials play an important factor in shap- ing the identities of their viewers. It has been said that one builds his iden- tity from pieces of the different en- vironments around him. Since television is a daily pastime for many, it is fair to refer to it as an environment that television commercials create is one that is often ad- mirable, but yet misleading. Viewers feel pressured by the perfect- ness that commericals imply, says Mr. James Super, English teacher who discussed identities in his FLS Honors classes. Commericals imply that if you wash your hair with this particular shampoo, it will become bouncin' and behavin' or us- ing this toothpaste will make you teeth as white as they can be. All in trying to create an identity that is appealing for themselves, viewers falling under their spell, immediately run out and buy the product, forgetting that nothing is as perfect as is professed to be. 'tCommercials also promote the land of the pretty people. HHave you ever noticed that most models are Caucasian, blonde, and blue eyed? Or if they're black, they're unually fair complectioned? But one thing holds true, the models are always very slender.

Cox Michael Crawford Johnny Crayton Commercial cont Viewers sit back and think, Gosh, if on- ly I could be like that. or I can never be like that! says Mr. Super. But, what does all of this have to do with the viewers' identity? According to the statistics taken from a 1978 survey in The Effect of Television Advertising on Children, the average time a person spends watching TV is 4:05 a day. During this time, studies show that the viewers are most attracted to those com- mericals that portray something or so- meone they would like to be. When developing their identity the viewer takes pieces from each commer- cial to form his one identity. The bad results of these commercials oc- cur when the viewer takes one piece of the commercial and turns it into his total identity. This isn't positive because the one piece cannot function by itself. It, combin- ed with each other pieces will form an identity that is more creative and able to make it's won decisions. Symptoms that characterize a person searching for their identity are constantly agreement with everything and striving to be a carbon copy of their idol. Additional information about commer- cials and their effect on their viewers may be obtained at the Wyandotte Mental Health Center or by sitting in on one of Mr. Super's FLA Honors classes.

At the peak of enrollment at Washington freshmen were transfered in 1973 to junior highs to ease the burden on the over crowd- ed high school facilities. Not since then has Washington had a freshman class. The current students at Washington, not having experienced the time when freshmen were at the school before, have expressed mixed opinions about the wisdom of the move made by the Board of Education. The most common concern is space. It will be alright, but it is going to be really crowded, said Charleneh Rollen, sophomore. Carla Pavlich, sophomore, agreed that it would be crowded. I really don't want them up here, she said. Several students said that they feared the increased enrollment would make it more difficult to get to class on time. I figure that since we are getting more students we should have more time bet- ween classes- or there's surely going to be a rise in tardies, said Johnny B. Cook. sophomore. Cont.

Juniors middlemen, but not much longer Is it better to be older or younger, or even better yet, to be right in the middle? This is one problem which some say isn't a problem, faced by juniors each year. The junior class is right in the middle of being the oldest or the youngest but won't have that problem next year. Next year the school will be joined by a new class, which will be the youngest, called the freshmen. Now the juniors won't be alone in the middle but will be joined by the sophomores. HI think that freshmen will benefit the school in many ways. It will give coaches more students to choose from for athletics, said junior, Nancy Orel. Being a junior, though, didn't effect Mike Hi1lbert's performances during foot- ball season. Mike was one of only two juniors in the Kansas City Kansas League to make the all KCKL football team. Another junior student was Ron Elmer who was undefeated during the regular wrestling season and went on to place third in the Kansas state meet. In the WHS musical, Kiss Me Kate, the leads in the play were both held by juniors. Lee Jost protrayed the part of Fred Petruchio and Melinda Layton played the part of Kate.

Tom Robison, sophomore, said he felt that it would be fun for his yonger friends to be at the school. Also, a prospective Washington freshman, a current eighth grade student at Eisenhower, Terry F. Marshall was ex- cited at the proposal. It wi.l be great coming up to Washington a year early, Terry said. Terry also said that when he lived 'n California the schools had used the same system and that he had felt it was only a matter of time before Kansas City took it up. Besides the students, the faculty and counselors also anticipated the coming freshmen. During the first semester, faculty com- mittees met and proposed a freshamn cur- riculum to the administration. The requirements finally settled upon were, Math K1 unith English I 11 unitl Physical Education U2 unit? General Science U2 unitl Social Science U2 unit? The freshmen will also be able to fill tht, remaining 212 units of their schedules with electives.

Each day you read your paper you run across something about someone abusing a child. During the nineteenth century, parents sold children into slavery or used them as a source of cheap labor. First children were seen as their parents' property, and it was taken granted that parents had every right to do what they thought was right to discipline their children. In the year 1807, 3926 children under the age of five died by accident of violence, 202 were listed as manslaughter, 95 neglected and 18 expos- ed to the cold. There are four catagories of child abuse: physical violence, neglect, nutri- tional neglect, and sexual abuse. Physical violence are harmful actions directed against the child. It is usually defined by any inflicted injury such as bruises, burns, head injuries, fractures, abdominal injuries, or poisoning. Neglect, implies the failure of parent to act properly in safeguarding the health, safety, and well being of the child. Nutrition neglect results from feeding an infant not enough food, or a bizarre diet creating a potentially life threaten- ing condition in which weight gain stops and weight, heighth, and often head cir- comference fall below the third percen- tile of children of the child's age.

Sexual abuse is the exploitation of im- mature children through such actions as incest, molestation, and rape. The histories of abusive families are repetition, from one generation to the next, of a pattern of abuse and neglect, and parental loss or deprivation. Undoubtably, most people who were abused as babies were also abused as they grew into childhood so when that child gets older and has children of his own, he would probably think abusing his child was right, because his parent did to him. Some parents who abuse their children are very seriously mentally ill. Some suffer from of a delluional psychosis of which they their abused child has been made a part. Others are aggressive sociaopaths: that is, individals with such low boiling points that they communicate only by beating. They beat their freinds, wives, and undoubtedly their children. They are not articulate, but react with blind and impulsive rage beyond control. They may really love their children, but they cannont control their impulse of anger. The rest are individuals who are frank- ly cruel . They torture their children in a premeditated, prolonged, repetitive, and a self righteous manner for such a in- fractions as bed wetting or slight delay of obedience.

The new policy is as follows: TO SCHOOL 1. 3 free tardies, including excused ones. 2. 4- office detentions 125 3. 5- office detentions 133 4. 6- ISS 12 days? 5. 7- suspension 12 dyas at home plus a parent conferenceb 6. 8- suspension 13 dys at home plus a parent conference! 5 7. 9- 5 days at home plus hearing before the principal with possible suspen- sion for the semester.

Many students ask why all of a sudden a new change. Well, the old policy did not seem to be to effective, because there were150 males students and 101 female students that had 177 tardies to one class, 52 tardies to two classes, 19 tardies to three classes, two tardies to four classes and one tardy to five classes. The tardy record to school for students who had five or more tardies was in the sophomore, class 70 students. in the junior class, 70 students, in the senior class they had 84 students. 'aww XT .

Q f QQ ff , f 4 f K X 'X Attempted suicides increase Very few people realize how serious at- tempting suicide can be and how rapidly it has been increasing each year. For example in 1900 only 2,036 people committed suicide. In 1981 it had increased to approximately 30,000 and is still increas- ing. Out of that 30,000 people about one fifth of them leave notes telling what to do with their bodies, telling their address and phone number, or telling why they killed themselves. Each year five to seven million people attempt suicide but do not succeed. From this amount ten to twenty-five percent will try at least one more time. The most common reasons for these peo- ple attempting to destroy their lives are il- lness, pain, unhappy love affairs, marital strife, financial difficulties, humiliation, remorse revenge, and over dosages of drugs. The number one way of committing this insane act is over doses of analgesics and narcotics. Other common ways are poison- and strangulation, drowning, firearms and explosives, cutting and piercing in- struments. jumping from high places, and other agents. It has always been that more males com- mit suicide than females. The reasons for this is really not known. But statistics show that more than Zfg of suicidal victims are male. Suicide may be the manifestation of an extreme grief reaction and mean reunion with a deceased person. It may be associated with thought of a new and bet- ter existence, even of rebirth. The majori- ty of the people who commit suicide acts have given a previous warning that was ig- nored.

More than another 600,000 young girls give birth to unplanned babies and find the entire course of their lives irrevocably changed. Moreover, the problem knows no economic or social barriers, affecting families from every walk of life. Many adults assume all young people are too sexually active and even pro- miscuous. Adolescents sexuality is a highly charged issue for most adults. Teen-agers are usually judged pretty hard in many areas. You have probably heard or read some of the charges. These kids are just uncontrollable! They take drugs and break laws! etc. These things are based on a very small minority. The ones who get all the publici- ty. Your parents may not see you in this way because you are their child, but may see many of your friends or other teens in this light. Many experts in this field have many reassurances, as well as some warnings in Right: Taking a break from her music class, senior Denise Dutton enjoys a candy bar. this area. It is true many teen-agers are sexually active. But it is not the whole teen sex pic- ture. All the empahsis on teen-age sex often fails to mention that almost half the teen-agers at age 18 are not sexually ac- tive. A clinical psychologist, sex therapist and author surveyed many young people and came up with some surprising results. For one thing he says, f'There isn't as much casual sex going on as adults believe there to be. Teen-agers are not pro- miscuous in their sexual activities. A thought that because girls as well as boys are more sexually active may be the reason for the decline in promiscuity. Most young men and women are seeking fidelity to be for them. Most teens surveyed believe in commit- ment. If they are sexually active, it is with one partner in a steady realtionship. A very important concept that many adults don't recognize is that teen-agers can and do fall in love. And for the most part are faithful to one partner.

Q :Q School buses with seatbelts? . School buses were desinged to carry a large number of students at one time. It seems rather impractical for a school but not to have seatbelts since they are a safe- ty device. Several school bus drivers said they do not know why the buses do not have seatbelts. One driver said, Only the driver is required to have one. The thought of buses not having seatbelts never occured to most parents. Most agree that buses should have them although they know the kids probably wouldn't wear them. Most students agree that buses do not need seatbelts because they know are too uncomfortable, and they wouldn't wear them, Bo Flores, junior, said, HI donlt think fschoolb buses need seatbelts because they would be too uncomfortable and hazardous because sometimes three or four people are seated one seat. One parent and one student said that the reason they thought school buses do not have seatbelts was because the bus seats are high and a person wouldntt be apt to fly. However in a bus there is a lot more room to fly and be thrown in case of an ac- cident. One parent said, It would be too expen- sive. It probably would be extremely expen- sive, but well worth the cost because if a student wants to wear a seatbelt, it should be there for him. is wwe .

Most girls have very rare sex, and they restrict it to a single partner and a more meaningful relationshipf' If feelings of love and fidelity condone sexual relations is a matter of debate. But it is a fact that all intimacy, teens includ- ed. t'The feelings a teenager is capable of having for another person are just as in- tense as those any adult can have. What he is saying is teens have as much feelings for love and the same closeness as adults. The teen years are the years our bodies mature and become sexually ready. This doesn't mean teens are all hung up on sex and their bodies getting ready for the big event. A study shows 50 percent of teens remain unactive sexually well past 18. On the most part the study shows most teens are not even preoccupied with sexual matters. One of the questions the doctor asked was to list in order of impor- tance these categories: sex, being roman- tically involved, athletics, doing well in school, having friendships with member sof the opposite sex and having friendships with members of the same sex. There were some differences between bosy and girls, but for the majority sex came in dead last. The most important ac- tivity for boys was doing well in school. Girls picked having friendships with other girls as their first choice. With all the influences in a teens life the results aren't surprising. But you can't blame a parent of a 14 or 15 year old to hope his child isn't sexually active. With unwanted teenage pregnancies at about one million a year or veneral disease at epidemic proportions the fear of physical consequences is very real. With one out of every ten teen-age girls getting pregnant before she leaves high school, gives parents good reason to worry.

Several students were polled and spilled their guts, and their statements followed up by a teacher's remarks for this story. The original reaction of most of the students interviewed was to hurl insults at the teachers. Such as calling them im- beciles, loudmouths, inhuman, ignorant slobs, and other names too obscene too be printed. About one-fourt of these com- ments were intended to be sincere. After thinking about it for awhile, the others changed their opinion to less severe ones. The most common opinion was that they were okay. Steven Carruthers, junior, feels there 1 ,-......, ' on teachers are four types of teachers: great, good, poor and all right. He defines great as a teacher who lets him have a free hand in his decisions. A good teacher is one who will not correct him when he is wrong. A poor teacher takes away all his rights. An all right teacher is somewhere in between a good and poor teacher. Some students such as David Green, junior, have stronger opinions that that. Some teachers feel like God, he said. They try to press their views on us. Mr. Janes Koenig, power I teacher, does not think so. No, not really. I do not tell them what to think or do.

If he treats me like dirt then I can not show him any respect. Connie Kukal, senior and Stacy Doherty, junior, backed up his statement. They agreed that the teachers that they feel respect for, respect them. The ones they don't respect do not respect them. I think teachers should have to take a competency test just like the students, Connie added. They should have to retake them every 6-10 yearsfl Vernon Hitchcock, junior, when asked what kind of teacher he would select, replied, I'd pick a dead one. He later ad- ded that most of his teachers knew what they were doing. Ever since school began, students have had something to say. If the students and the teachers discuss their problems, school would seem alot shorter to all of us.

Debbie, senior exchange student from Australia, has had 12 years of theatrical experience. Since the age of six, she has been in musicals and stage plays. The theatre is a world of its own. At times it tends to be a world of make- believe, stated Debbie. She first performed in the musical South Pacific. Since then she has played under theatrical companies that aid productions and try to encourage many young children to participate. Debbie is talented, not only in theatre, but also in orchestra. She has worked under some of the best musicians in Australia and has traveled to different parts of the world giving concerts, While at Washington, she explained that Australia's school system is very different from ours. She was used to the segregated private schools with strict rules and regulations, a more advanced curriculum, and school uniforms. Her language sug- gested she was well educated. Debbie's favorite sports are tennis, cricket, and netball. Her hobbies are music and drama. Both of her hobbies have taken much time and effort to become successful, but it has given her op- portunities to travel and meet many people. Theatre is a wonderful world to par- ticipate in and over the years I have many happy memories of people I have met and have had many wonderful experiences. When not in theatre and orchestra much of Debbies' time was spent on the beach. In Australia, students do not hold jobs like the American students, explained Debbie.

You may say that wrestling is not an art. but it does involve a skill that is gained on- ly by experience and hardwork coupled with an exhausting physical conditioning program. Wrestling is a competitive sport of an in- dividual competing on a one-to-one basis. A wrestler is on his owng not a member of a team. Only his skill and condition can determine his winning or losing. Practice involves pairing up with some- one of equal weight and going over and over possible moves. Positions are deomonstrated by coaches, and then by trial and error each wrestler must take six minutes of strenous exercise. if not. he might as well forget wrestling. Protective gear is provided by head gear, knee and elbow pads, and a special soft soled shoe is required. An actual match is divided into 3 two- minute rounds. Scoring is by pointsg such as 2 points for a takedown or reversal, 2 or 1-point escape. Of course. a pin is an automatic win. Coach Harless expects alot and makes you work for it, says Alan Shatto, a 119 pound junior varsity wrestler for Washington. But Alan goes on to say, I like that - when you win it's quite a thrill. Dale Williams is also a junior varsity wrestler for Washington but wrestlers at 167 pounds. Dales says, I enjoy wrestling and the coach does work with us to im- prove our skills. It's a big thrill to have cheerleaders cheer you on to a pin over your opponent and then have the referee raise your arm and declare you a match winner. Wrestling at Washington has never received much attention from the student body. But with hard work and experience, the team is winning. . H Washington is ranked fifth in standing in the greater Kansas City area. So. the wrestlers are well on the way to receiving the notice they have earned the hard way: by winning matches.

The purpose for I.S.S. is to promote a better learning environment and to discourage tardies and other minor disciplinary problems. Many teachers and administrators in this district have mixed emotions over the I.S.S. program and whether it is worth the time, effort and money which has been put into it. Most feel that the program is a better alternative to out-of-school suspensions. Since students can stay in school, receive credit for their work, and also receive help from teachers, it is better than out-of- school suspensions. With out-of-school suspensions the students could not receive credit for their class work, so the program works to the students advantage. With advantages come disadvantages. One disadvantage is the cost of the pro- gram. Mrs. Elizabeth Rogers, newspaper advisor at Eisenhower Junior High School, commented that it cost her school 316,000 to staff I.S.S. for one year. One administrator from the same school said, 'KI am not convinced that the pro- gram is worth the expense. Para profes- sionals, even non-professionals could do the job that is being expected from the teachers assinged to I.S.Si Another disadvantage is that the students get too many chances. Instead of the students going into I.S.S. is also a disadvantage. They are giving their extra time to students in I.S.S. when they could be directing it towards students who want to learn.

Because of the quiet atmosphere, the students do better school work. Of course, there are a few who do not do their work, but for the most part the students do learn something. It depends solely on the individual as to what they learn and how, whether it being something from their school work or from being confined in I.S.S. for a number of days for whatever they did wrong. Over all, I.S.S. seems to be a learning ex- perience and can be beneficial to the stu- dent. I.S.S. is supposed to help the disciplinary problems in the school somewhat. In some schools in this district it has and in others it has not. Over all, the program has helped the disciplinary problems and most students want to stay out of I.S.S. and do not want to go back. Most teachers and administrators are happy with the way the program is work- ing and others commented that there are some changes which could be made. Mr. Sylvester Morris, French teacher here at W.H.S., felt that no one should be assigned to I.S.S. for over three days.

Another teacher thought that the students should be permitted to return to their classes as soon as their assingments are completed. If he is industrious enough to finish, why wait a certain number of days? Mrs. Rogers said she would find a more efficient way of checking quality and quan- tity of student work. Teachers are suppos- ed to grade the work that the students do while in I.S.S. and return it to the vice- principal stating the grades which were received. Whenever Mrs. Rogers failed to turn in her assingment sheet, no one checked or questioned her about it. She also suggested that the assingment sheets should be made available to teachers at least a day before the student is to be plac- ed in I.S.S. She said that she has received them in her mailbox the day the student was to to into suspension. In conclusion, I.S.S. is a program which is to help the minor disciplinary problems in the schools. Different teachers and administrators in this district have different opinions on whether the program is worth all of the time and effort which has been put into it. As one administrator put it, Why should the burden of the punishment be placed solely on the teachers, ad- ministrators, and the rest of the tax- payers?

The squad of Diane Byers, Jodi Swendel, Paula James, Kelly Mayhue, Tammy Whelan, and Missy Cannon started out on a good foot by receiving a second place rib- bon along with several other ribbons while attending camp at Emporia State Univer- sity. Also receiving many ribbons at a cheerleading camp held at Baker Univer- sity was the J .V. squad of Leontrz McIn- tosh, Kim Martin, Jackie Jacksor, Tracy Hunt, and Traci Henderson who was on the squad for the first semester only. They recieved ribbons for second place along with two outstanding, one supperior, and one excellent. Kits Kats Julie Milan, Alecia Ricks, Derieth Sutton, Kathy Jones, and Crystal Walker were chosen in September. They practiced three times a week and cheered very energetically for the wrestling and swim teams. Home Ec. stays active The Home Economics Club, sponsored by Lydia Brady and Kathleen Komark, helped students improve on their sewing, cooking and other home management skills. The club went on several field trips throughout the year. Before Christmas they went to Lee Wards so students could purchase supplies for making Christmas gifts. One of their biggest activities was their annual Mother-Daughter Banquet held in one of the Home Ec. rooms at the end of the year. A money making project they had was to sell candy and candles. .- - lx ,I A FN as When discussing the club, Anita Moore, senior, said, I think its fun. I've been in it two years. The club usually gets alot of recognition because they do a lot of things. The Health Careers Club, sponsored by the nurse, Mrs. Sharon Sparkman, tries to scan the different fields the students are interested in. During the year they observed the work of a physical therapist and a nurse. The club also heard interesting speaches by both a psychiatrist and a nurse. Most of the students in the club wanted to become nurses so many film strips were shown about the field of nursing. Y is NW ., Q C .. . in .--:'f e - . J k'k' in ,sg ik, r s - 4 K KWH ,. ,.....

The Pep Club wanted to make the event special by bringing back as many of the former Homecoming Queens as possible. They were able to contain many past queens including the very first Homecom- ing Queen of 50 years ago. Her stroll from the track to the football field seemed to touch the hearts of everyone in the crowd. Another thing that seemed to please the crowd alot was the parade of corvets which brought in the attendants and queen nominees. The sophomore attendant and escort were Sherry Hooks and Jimmy Green. The junior attendant and escort were Becky Rhodes and Dan Poje. Lori Chambers and Angela Mills, were second princesses with their escorts Mike Cecina and Don Hill. Cindy Bauer was the first princess and her escort was Kenny Beatty. Tyjuana Gatson was crowned queen by her father. Her escort was Robert Diaz and the king. elected by the football team, was Mike Hays. The theme of the Homecoming Dance was Wildcats in Wonderland. The Pep Club stayed after school many hours making and setting up the decorations which helped to make the fieldhouse look like a real wonderland.

But there are technicians who make sure that when someone is knocking at a door you hear them knocking. And what about the lights? Yes, what about the lights, hours are spent in preparation to make the actors look good while performing. If a certain light isn't set correctly, an actor could look sick, no matter how healthy they actually are. If there isnit someone working on the sound effects, a performer would look extremely stupid on stage. In fact, Star Wars would have been a flop, if it wasn't for those unknowns backstage. It takes many hours to rehearse lines and to get a set to look real, but in the end, students are rewarded by being initiated into the Internaitonal Thespian Society. Each year, a number of students are dressed up asking help from any and all students to sign a petition. Last year, petitions from flower children ranged from the legalization of Mary- jane to fewer school hours. So in the end, the unknowns, the technicians are not forgotten or lost. N.

DECA tDistributive Education Clubs of Americab, sponsored by Ms. Patti DeRosa, is an organization to prepare students to get ready for a marketing career in business. DECA enables students to attend school four hours then work for two hours, receiv- ing two credits. At school one hour of classroom studies and one hour of indepen- dent studies are necessary. Then the stu- dent works. DECA attended a classroom study at Career Development Contest and a Initia- tion Ceremony at O'Learys. The club will also attend a field trip to Emporia Kansas. The Art Club changed from a club for the general student body to an honors club for students already involved in art. Mrs. Pam Jasinskas, one of the club sponsors, said the club was being handled differently this year. Rather than the club being open to anyone, Mrs. Jasinskas and Mr. Wes Lewis, the other club sponsor, selected the best students from their classes for membership in the club. It is more of an honor to be a member of the club this year, Mrs. Jasinskas said. Alt is a way of rewarding the suudents for their classwork, and an extension of classwork for the advanced student. Both of the field trips which the club took were academic in nature. The club went to the Scholastic Art Ex- hibit at Crown Center and the Nelson Art Gallery. The club also purchases art equipment for the school's department from funds raised by selling supplies to students. This year's officers were Dan Poje, presidentg Ginney Carney, vice-presidentg and Cindy Bauer, secretary I t SWG!!! ...ww 'ivki 5 1 I ? 164 Problems surround journalism classes Both the Hatchet and Washingtonian staffs had many new challenges to face this year, and both staffs were equal to the task. The Washingtonian staff was composed of approximately half of last years staff and the rest of the positions were filled by juniors. But having half of the staff return made producing the paper a little easier, It is always easier when you have ex- perienced members on the staff, said journalism adviser Payl Gilbert-Carman. But we had the problem of people drop- ping out before the year started. But a bigger problem faced both of the publication staffs. The school was donated two typesetters that are used in setting copy for the paper and the yearbook. With these typesetters the staffs were going to save on expenses which would help. But that idea went sour when the typesetters broke down. . Above Center: Placing copy headlines on- to the layout is Mike Brennan, sr. and Nan- cy Orel, jr.

Services are main goals Mr. Wayne Coblentz, Student Council of- ficers and members main job is to monitor the clubs at WHS and to make sure they follow the laws of the school and club con- stitutions. StuCo sponsors many fun and social ac- tivities for the student body, such as, the winter dance, bonfires, King Louie night and many other events throughout the year. Future Business Leaders of America CFBLAD is a service club and it also prepares the student for the business world. Club members took many field trips to get a better understanding of the business world. PEER CPositive Education Experience through Relationshipsl has been organized for 3 years. The sponsors are Mrs. Ruth Goheen and Mrs. Debbie Woodard. The purpose of this club is to help students cope with problems they have or might come in contact later. PEER sponsored many open discussions where the whole student body was invited to come and talk about problems that we might face daily such as: stress, and cop- 'ing with death. Above: PEER. A.

W-Club i Lettermen W-Club, sponsored by Mr. Larry Elliott is an organization containing all students who have earned a varsity letter. The club consists of forty-one members including president Mike Hayes, vice president Jeff Hicks, secretary Marian Johnson, and treasurer Mike Beatty. W-Club is a club to promote all school ac- tivities. The club works with the school in promoting school spirit and enthusiasm. W-Club sponsored the Red ans White basketball game. The club also sold staduim cups as a class project to raise money for the banquet held at the end of the year. This banquet is held for all the members and their guests. Red blood, white elephant, and buttered popcorn were featured in the Key Club's active year. The Key Club, a public service organiza- tion which is part of the Kiwanas, assisted at a Red Cross Blood Bank in April for local hospitals. No living white elephants, but lots of rummage was seen at the Key Club White Elephant Sale in late March. The money was for the club's general funds. The club also raised money by serving buttered popcorn and soft drinks at the Kiwanas Club travelogues shown at the school. The Key Club took a trip April 3 and 4 to Rock Springs for the annual State Key Club convention. The officers for the year were Julia Molina, president, Georgie Hartner, vice- president, Celia Grigsby, treasurer, Julie Calhoun, secretary, Mike Hays, sergeant- at-arms.

Activities undertaken The three foreign language clubs, Spanish Club, French Club, and German Club, were very active throughout the year. The Spanish Club, sponsored by Ester Stanley, began their activities by seeing a spanish movie in Argentine and then eating out at Jalisco's. After that they had their Christmas party and a pinata making contest. Later in the year they went to Nelson's Art Gallery. They also sold candy to raise money for a fiesta held at Wyan- dotte County Lake. At the end of the year they went to Worlds of Fun. The officers were Joy Milan, president, Ron Hoyler, vice president, Pam Spradlin, treasurer, and Cathy Gonzales, secretary. Some of the events of the French Club in- cluded a Christmas Partv, and a cheese tasting festivel where they tasted many French cheeses. The Mardi Gras was another cultural event which they celebrated during school. The club ate at several French restuarants. They also saw an exhibition at the Nelson Art Gallery. The officers were Pam Brown, president, Ron Hoyler, vice president, Hilary Higbee, secretary, and Carlos Jones, pro- gram chairman. The German Club, sponsored by Miss Karen Ham, also had an active year. Throughout the year they went to Worlds of Fun for the Octoberfest, sold Gummi Bears so they could eat at a German Restaurant and they also saw a German movie at the Bijou.

Much of the who dunnit took place in a courtroom where the trial of a Leonard Vole is in process. After the first day in court, a mysterious woman appears in the office of Wilfred Robarts, the defense attorney. The woman claims to have letters that will discredit any information from the defendent's wife, Romaine. These letters contain informa- tion proving that Romaine Vole lied about her husband and that all this was fabricated so that she could be free of him and could go on to be with her beloved Max. During the second day in court, Romaine Vole is shown to have lied earlier in the play and her husband is set free. After- wards, Romaine reveals to the amazement of Robarts that she was the woman who wrote the letters and brought them to his office. She also reveals that Leonard did kill Miss Emily French. Robarts then leaves and Romaine find herself alone with her husband until a younger woman appears on the scene claiming Leonard to be hers. Leonard reveals at this time that he never loved Romaine and he just used her. Not wanting to look like a fool, Romaine pulls a gun from her purse and shoots the only man she ever loved, ending the play, knowing who killed Miss Emily French and who killed Leonard Vole. Those who appeared for the prosecution included an Inspector Hearne, a Doctor Wyatt, a Ms. Clegg, and Janet Mackenzie, the housekeeper for the late Miss Emily French, the woman whom Vole is accused of killing. Also, the prime witness for the prosecution was Vole's wife, Romaine Vole. , ,M , I ,,, ,., , ,,,,, N , , ,:, , f f ,,,, ,mg M,', . , .W M . . T .

Formal is changed Faced with declining attendance and an economic crunch, Washington's Student Council changed the name and at- mosphere of the traditional Winter Formal Dance. Trying to increase participation by drop- ping dress restrictions, StuCo also dropped the Formal from the name. ttThey wanted people to feel comfortable about coming and did not Want people to think that they would need to go and buy a formal dress or rent a tux, because both are expensive, said Jode Swengel, Sophomore Class President. Jodi said StuCo did not want students to think dress was the most important thing. StuCo Social Activities Chariman Angela Mills said that she hoped many students planned to attend the Hfestive event. In a news release given to the Washingtonian Angela said the students should plan to enjoy Ugreat music, good fun and party food in their best semi- formal attire. One tradition part of the dance that was retained by the Student Council was the crowning of the King and Queen of the Dance. The Queen for this year's dance was Diane Scherer. The King of this yearls dance was Matt Morvac. Sherry Van Ross, Linda Barnes, and Tammy Verkler were the queens atten- dants. The Winter Dance Royalty were presented to the Washington community at half time of the Basketball game on January 29. Doug Spangler, StuCo president was master of ceremonies at the dance and crowned the king and queen. Boquets of flowers were presented to the queen and her princesses. Escorts were given white bountonnieres for the occasion. Tickets for the dance were 52.50 per per- son with an activity ticket. t'Sound Dynamics presented the music for the event. Hours were from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. The dance was held at the Sheraton Royal Hotel. Above : While Mr. Coblentz announced the royalty, 'tSound Dynamics played background music.

Short life for pep band The one band of WHS with the shortest life is also the band that people most remember, the marching band. The 80 member band which comes into existance at the beginning of the school year and fades away nine weeks later, con- sists of juniors and seniors who have a back ground reference of playing in the caddette band. According to their director, Mr. Edwin Hosking, this year's band was better than average. Some of the bands performances include marching in the American Royal Parade, the Parade of Progress in Kansas City, Kansas, the K.C.K. marching band festival, along with four performances at home football games. The bands biggest honor was State Marching Contest in Topeka, where the band was scored a two. The Orchestra, conducted by Bonnie Trimmer, made the decision to buy blazers to be worn only for concerts. To raise money for these, they sold decorative trays and little stuffed rabbits. Another in- teresting thing the Orchesta did was to perform t'Hello K.C.'l with the Chamber Singers on T.V. 5. Stageband is another option open to juniors and seniors. Members of the band audition at the beginning of the second semester. Some of their performances include the K.C.K. Jax Festival held at Wyadotte High School, Pops Concert, a performance at an Arrowhead Junior High assembly, six boys home basketball games and two girls home basketball games. The band has also received invitations to play at Piper High School and two junior highs. S , eww fl rs Q X ' my N -an F F2'fi-! 'i1-:fini 13 i- rf H5 'SEM Is. . is.. X Q r A Mil' K ,aa-inane, M-W..

These Vandals and other barbarians took a great part in bringing about the empire's decline. The Vandals were probably no more distructive than any barbarian group, but the word vandal has come to mean: someone that destroys or damages valuable things, usually not belonging to them. A question that is often raised is Why would a person intentionally ruin something, or cause great damage to anything that didn't belong to them? This question can be answered by one simple word- attention. Naturally, a stu- dent who breaks a window or writes grafit- ti on a wall or street where everyone can see it is going to get alot of attention. Often times, students will turn to vandalism as a way of making new friends. Instead of be- ing discouraged by his peers, a vandal is usually praised for his outstanding work. In 1978-97, the Shawnee Mission school district suffered a loss of 575.00 due to damages caused by vandals. The following year the total cost for damages amounted to S60,000. These figures hold little signifi- cant value in comparison to other school districts. Each year, most schools lose more money than necessry due to vandals. Vandalism isn't necessarily more com- mon in school systems than it is in public .aces of entertainment, parks, theaters, ect. Vandalism is becoming a wide-spread problem throughout most cities. How could this growing problem be put to a stop? Director of Public Relations of the Kansas City Board of Education, Glen Dewerff believes the most effective method would be peer-pressure. If vandals were discouraged by their friends and peers, they wouldn't be receiving pats on the back for vandalizing, therefore there would no longer be a need for them to deliberatley tear up things and write obscene messages on public walls. This method cold and should be recommended for all schools of all cities. Mr. Dewerff also comments, If there is any vandalism at all, there is too much. Vandals should definitely not be able to get away from the responsibilities of van- dalizing. If a person is going to ruin or seriously damage something just for fun, they should know what follows all the fun. Vandals should have to pay for the damages they cause, or replace items they've broken. This way, all of those thousands of dollars that would normally be going towards damage costs can be spent on activities for those students in the schools that deserve the right to have such sctivities provided. The entire school, teachers and students, shouldn't have to suffer due to the actions of just one or two vandals. A ' as X Z 200 E , AAww.

Far Right: Tammie Lucky, senior, finishes her work for the day in Business Machines class. Business department is strongest in area Out of all the Kansas City, Kansas public high schools, Washington has the strongest business department of all. There are 14 different classes available for students. According to Mr. Jack Masters, Shorthand and Secretarial Training teacher, more business companies come here to inquire about student jobs than any other school. Mr. Masters also said that these classes could be very beneficial in searching for jobs directly after high school. Business is one of the few areas in a high school in which a student can put to use the skills they have learned and go directly into a job after high school an earn anywhere from S800 to S1000 a year. 9 .- .-A. , N , QWWQZQMQ1 ultima Far Lg-ftgTh8 1982 Varsity Basketball Team Back Row: Coach Elliott.

It's not Fantasy Island, but it is the annual Renaissance Festival is Bonner Springs, Ks. The festival is based on 16th century England with a touch of the medieval period. Duringthisperiodintime, kings and queens still reighned. There werre damsels in distress and knights to rescue them from fire breathing dragons. This year, to add to the flavor of the age, a 5-foot wooden dragon was ready to be challenged by any brave soul. This person, then takes a lance in hand and tries to snare a ring from the clutches of the dragon's jaws. lf you fail, you won't be eaten: but you might get a puff of smoke. Another new artraction is Marco Polo's Marketplace. All historians know ofthe explorerr,butforthose ofyou who don'tg Marco Polo explored the Orient and opened the chest of treasurers in the 13th centure. In the marketplace, shows take place that give an idea of who Marco Polo might have experienced while in the yesterday Orient. Surrounding the shows are srts and arafts from the age of adventure. Other attractions at the festival include, Jacobs ladder. The goal of this is to reach the top of a ladder connected to the groud and tied to a post. The difficult part of this isthat the ladder moves with every shiffing of the person's weight. IT maytake you several tries and an abundentamountofmoney Then, of course, you can always challenge a friend or enemy to a hay pitching contest. The person who can pitch a bale of hay over a rope that is strup upto twotreesisthe winner. There is another challenge, if you dare, to knock someone else off a log with a burlap bag filled with hay. lf you win, you can reigh as king or queen of the log. Then you can decided to defend your place against all other challengers. There are jugglers and those Who try to get you to kiss a chicken's beak, claiming it's like kissing the sheriff. Taking from my own experience, it is nn laughing matter, unless, you what the sheriff to spit in your face. Above left Marti Hargitt, sr., tries kissing a chicken for luck.

On October 14, 1890, DDE was born in Denison, Texas. He was the third boy out of six. Sometime L later, his family moved to Abilene, Ks., where his father worked in a creamery. To make some more money for the family, the boys raised vegetables and did odd jobs. After a close friend had gone on to Annapolis, lke decided he'd try to get into one of the service colleges. Hetried and made it to West Point. Four years later, he was stationed at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, as a Second Lieutenant. there, he met and married Mamie Doud and their first son was born in 1921, but died of scarlet fever. They named him Doud Dwight Eisenhower. He is buried in Abilene, where both parents are also buried, On June 1, 1945, he began his campaign for the Republican party and in Abilene won the nomination later in July. He then became our 34th president. As president, he made an agreement with Canada to construct the GreatLakes-St. Lawrence Seaway. During this term, he visited Korea and the truce was signed soon after that. On September 24, 1955, Ike suffered a heart attack, but came back to announce he would again run for president and he again succeded. Now, lke's boy rests in a memorial chapel alson with Mamie annd theirfirst son Doud in Abilene, Ks. On these very same grounds are lke's boyhood home and a museum dedicated to him. Below: The land of Ah's surroundsthe a state on bumpers and car windows. The campaign to show pride in the state is now wide spread.

AND ' ' OF AHS 3 Hyatt included in ongoing histgry Events in our lives make up the history that will fill the pages of ouryearbooks and our history books, for years on end. One of the first persons in T the Wyandotte County area to begin to make history were MOses and Annie Grinter. Withthe helpofaforeman and some Indians, the Grinter's has their house built on the ban ks of the Kansas River. There they set up a plantation, more or less, and raised a family. Through the hard work of the Friends of Grinter Place, the house still remains, through the yeasrs of hard winters and hot summers. Once a year, thei Friends of Grinter hold an apple fest, where kids of all ages attend and learn some crafts and enjoy fresh apple cider. Through this changing and on-going history, tragedies occur and must be faced, before ever going on. One such tragedy was the Hyatt Regency tragedy which occured in July. A fourth floor skywalk fell and caused a second skywalk to fall to the floor. Instantly, persons on both skywalks and those underneath were killed. At the time of the accident, a dance contest was being held on the main dance floor. Throughout the atea, contestants and onlookers were dealing with a tragedy. Those who were able, helped with rescue operations forthose who were injured. The toal number of those who died from the tragedy is 113. Even though, such accidents are not enjoyable and are best forgotten, there is still the memory that lingers. Area health centers were open for anyone to come ln and talk things out, so as to forget the incident in the best possible way. i .
