It ' s a look at the students who are the build- ing blocks of a learning institution. It ' s the people who fill our hall- ways, occupy the classrooms, teach the texts, and add their per- sonalities, talents, interests, and enthusiasm to make Washington the school it is today. To better understand the di- verse group of individuals who for- mulate our student body, one must question and evaluate who he is first in order to understand those around him. Exploring the worries of sen- iors, and the fears of freshmen, as well as the doubts and hopes of everyone in between all of them caught up in the awesome pull of academic, sporting, and social pressures, is a view inside the stu- dents of Washington. A view inside eilso includes a glance at class spirit, the struggle for success, the hopes for the fu- ture, and the anticipation with which students pursued the year ahead. For inside every Panther is a true blue spirit and a heart of gold. Over Labor Day weekend, at University Park Mall, the band 4Tress, (seniors Dan Dresbach and Ken Wozniak and juniors Jodey Jansen and Brian Roz- marynowski) performed for shoppers who donated to Jerry ' s kids. Dancing all night, dancing all day, this was the way juniors Laura Raker, Derek Vanslager, Michelle An- drejewski and sophomore Kim Hay helped to raise $1,400 for the Muscular Dystrophy Dance Party •88. Step Inside Coach Scott Bovenkerk reveals top-secret defense: We ' ll have an advantage tonight; we ' re going to play with twelve men on the field, and that twelfth man is our fans in the stands, the best fans in the NIC (Northern Indiana Conference). Sophomore Fred Patton loves being the center of attention as the new Panther; Patton always suc- ceeds in getting the crowd to roar. Opening A Fraction Of The Many Faces After participating in the Sunburst Lung Walk, junior Amy Shaw carries enough refreshments to quench her thirst. Fraction Of The Many Faces The life of a student in the 80 ' s is more hec- tic and stressful than it has ever been before. The student part of stu- dent life is only a fraction of the many faces teen- agers wear. Their moods and masks seemed to change as often as the fads and fashions of the day. Insecurity and anxieties sometimes had them singi ng the blues, but then came a glimmer of golden hope. For many, life took on whole new dimension when the 2:40 bell rang on Fri- day. The weekend for some was em invitation to night life and social life. It often served as a reward for surviving the week. Students often used this time as an invitation to sleep in late, spend hours on the phone, spectate at sporting events, or just hang out with friends. Other students used their weekends and hours after school in a different way — for purely financial reasons, ranging from help- ing ends meet at home; saving up for that first car; earning spending money; and banking tuition for col- lege. This is why a look at stu- dents ' lives is more than a glance at their watches to see how their time is spent. It ' s a view inside the inter- ests, hobbies, aspirations, personalities, and financial situations faced by the stu- dents of Washington High School. While taking time out from decorating for spirit week, juniors Rich Bogucki and Aaron Budny try to look like Indians. Temperatures Soar; Panthers Keep Cool Temperatures soared all sum- mer long, and students had to find new ways to be cool. The summer of ' 88 was the hottest one on record and was made worse by one of the longest droughts in history. To keep cool, Panthers got all wet, blew it off, took a walk, took the load off, and or anything else necessary to beat the heat of ' 88. Sophomore Latisa Cole said about her summer, I had a lot of fun and went a lot of places 1 nev- er went before. Some seniors spent their sum- mer planning for college. I want- ed to get it done and over with, said Peggy Butler. Bradley is But- ler ' s first choice. Busy was the best way to de- scribe junior Misty Morris ' sum- mer. I played softball, I went to the beach, and I got my license. Sophomore Mary Niederhofer went traveling. My summer was a blast. My friend and I went to Can- ada for two weeks. Summer couldn ' t be defined by senior Terrence Trotter, but he knew what he liked and what he didn ' t like. I had fun going over to my good friend ' s house and be- ing with people I really care for, but tragedy hit when I found my- self getting up for football practice in August! Amusement parks always make summer fun. Sophomore Marlena Tholen said, I enjoyed my sum- mer because I went to Great America with my friends. Beating the heat was the name of the game for the summer of ' 88. Before a performance at the Ethnic Festival, juniors Angie Baker and Laura Raker stay cool inside the bus as they keep a watchful eye on the rising ther- mometer. Seniors Denise Jansen and Melody Callander broke out the shades to keep back the rising heat from Ford Street. f -iwaimi- ' O Temperatures Soar; Panthers Keep Cool Summer Makin ' It Happen To look inside Washington is to look at involvement. Stu- dents and teachers together made it happen. Everyone was involved when it came to athletic events. It was not only the athletes on the field, but the entire student body, that extra player, who went to every game, every match, every event and cheered from the stands. Involvement can also be one Panther to another. Trainer Ryan Trzaskowski challenged sopho- more Brad Raker to give 110% in his performance on the football field — even if he had an injury. It can be a single effort as in the case of Mrs. Christine Banaszak, senior class sponsor, who did her part to get involved in school act- ivities. Some students chose to be in- volved outside of school. Show- ing off fast cars for pretty women is what kept senior Richard Robles and friends on the streets. A view inside Washington is a picture of involvement. Longer lunch hours provide more time for talking about cars first, girls second, (senior Richard Robles, and juniors John Nowicki and Todd Nitka.) Full of hot air, Mrs. Christine Banaszak, senior class sponsor, gives her all for the seniors ' prize-winning gym decorations. 8 Makin ' It Happen Student Life Usually not this refined, sophomore Mark Albert tries to maintain self-control at the Prom. Memories Remain Long After Rainbow Fades As the couples entered the Joyce Athletic and Convo- cation Center on Friday, May 6, 1988, they immediately saw an array of rainbow-pastel streamers. Next they walked through a runway of helium-filled balloons and then passed through a balloon-covered arch to the wait- ing decorated tables and lively mu- sic of This End Up. Time passed quickly with the taking of pictures and the conver- sations of where to meet after the Prom. As couples danced the night away, the most awaited mo- ment finally arrived. It was an- nounced that Rahmem Johnson was Prom Prince and Sonya Ad- ams was Prom Princess of the 1988 junior class. For the Senior Class of 1988, Prom King was Jeff Kyle and Prom Queen was Veroni- ca Yado. Prom Queen Veronica Yado and escort Ray Smith contemplate the events to follow the Prom.

Doors Close As Future Opens Teardrops, sobs, sighs and elations filled the heat- soaked gymnasium as the Class of ' 88 filed into their seats and prepared for the closing of their high school years. Academic and emotional prepa- ration for this day began four years ago; actual preparation for the ceremony was majorly done by principal David Kaser and sec- retary Mrs. Pat. The class itself had only to order the flowers and organize themselves for the receiv- ing of diplomas. During their four years, the Class of ' 88 sponsored eind partici- pated in many events. The high- light of freshman year was deco- rating for the homecomings. As sophomores, they enjoyed a trip to Great America. The big event their junior year was the Prom, and their senior year, Foot- ball Homecoming. Also as seniors, the class sponsored a winter semi- formal. The class sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Swintz, played a prominent role in the graduates ' lives, said Mrs. Swintz. In every event in which the whole class par- ticipated, the sponsors were there to share the experience with them. The best part of being a class sponsor was giving the speeches at graduation, said Mrs. Swintz. The sponsors also commented on the concerns of the graduating class such as insecurity and fright. Senior class president, Lynn McCarthy, had one sobbing clos- ing statement, I ' ve had so many good times here that I don ' t want to leave. 12 Doors Close As Future Opens Graduates Jeff Wells and Mark Zalas close their lockers for the last time, and open new doors to the future. College, leadership and the future are just a few of the topics that class sponsor Mr. Robert Swintz discussed in his speech to the graduating class. t r Valedictorians Daniel Hayes and Stacie Anderson recite their last words together with the Class of ' 88. Help is often needed when the nervousness of grad- uating sets in; Denise Wesolowski and Tracy Haluda prepare to enter into life. Graduation 13 Starting In Summer Strike up the band. As the Washington High School band started their year- round commitment, amid the hot summer month of August on the steaming black pavement of the back faculty parking lot, the fall sports athletes began their prac- tices in the pool, on the field, and on the courts. As athletes went through weeks of hard work, they were also rec- ognized at the pep assemblies. Many students got into the Pan- ther spirit as they decorated the halls and gymnasium for the foot- ball and basketball homecoming spirit weeks, in order to win the spirit sticks. The Memory Lane and Hatchet staffs decorated the English classrooms to promote the sale of yearbook and newspaper subscriptions. 14 Long before most students are even thinking of reporting back to school, band members are already gearing up for the South Bend football jamboree. They begin practice in early August. Freshman Billy Holmes hitches up his bass drum in the proper setting; senior Ken Wozniak is all ready to atten-hut. Cheers overcame the junior student body as class president, Jean Knabenshue, accepts the spirit stick for hall decorations. Fall sports athletes stand up to get the recognition they deserve. Miles of crepe paper are twisted and stretched from the bleachers to the gymnasium floor and from the floor to the basketball backboards. Senior Steve Cenova twisted all night and by the next day, the seniors had won the spirit stick! Panther pride shines golden bright not only on the field, in the pool, and on the courts in the various sports, but in the classrooms as well. At the annual academic recognition banquet, senior Rich Horvath and juniors Lisa Thompson and Jean Knabenshue model their medals and award-winning smiles for all to see. Student Life 15 ctivities Unite Panthers Ti ' alent, dedication, determination, opti- mism, spirit, pride and a sense of concern are all unique qualities which bind friends, future schol- ars, thespians, farmers, journalists, homecoming courts, and hostesses to- gether. Motives behind being in- volved were endless and differed greatly. One rea- son that may contribute to the widespread involve- ment of such diverse stu- dents with such individual interests and personalities was the variety of clubs, groups, and activities to choose from. The varied goals and objectives of these groups offered ap- peal to almost every stu- dent. When asked why they participate in activities, junior Tricia Sekendy com- mented, It ' s fun to get into the clubs and meet other people. Panther sophomore Fred Patton added, They ' re fun and special. This is why a view inside Washington ' s activities is a view of the pride, interests, concerns and motivations of the student body. 16 Hello Dolly, performed at the 1988 Firefly Festival, included three Washington students. Waiter Richard Koons interrupts as Horace Vandergelder (Ryan Trzas- kowski) discovers that Barnaby Tucker (Andy Budzinski) isn ' t working in Horace ' s New York store.

Activities Division 17 Panthers Decorate With Pride Green and white streamers were draped everywhere from the ceiling to the floor. An eye- opening STRICTLY SEN- IORS was sprayed on the brick wall. The juniors had an array of multi-colored signs all the way across the office doors. Sophomores had the oppos- ing team ' s (Elston) Red Devil in the corner of the gym doors.

Granted, each class works separately, but the classes also worked together to fill the halls and gym with green and white posters, balloons and crepe pa- per. The class of ' 90 won the spirit stick for hallway decorations; their well-planned streams of color-coordinated crepe paper captivated the judges. The class of ' 89 with their large green and white W standing tall on the deck over- looking the long white banners hung majestically from the back- boards, won the spirit stick for gym decorations. 18 Panthers Decorate With Pride Football Homecoming Luck Be a Lady, a music and dance number, took many hours of hard work by the crap shooters to make a success. Enthusiasm is an important part of a mu- sical, as shown by sophomore Letari Thompson. r «s Many times during rehearsal someone would forget his lines. Junior Erin Albert asks the prompter what her next line is. 20 Broadway Comes to Washington I J Wfc i . yi Broadway Comes To Washington In the spring of 1988, the Dra- ma Club presented on its stage a fable of Broadway. This fable was Guys and Dolls. Guys and Dolls tells the sto- ry of Miss Sarah Brown and Miss Adelaide, and how they marry their unlikely husbands, Sky Masterson and Nathan Detroit. Many students sacrificed long hours to make Guys and Dolls a success, from learning dance steps and musical numbers to building the set. Like anything, it was work, but rewarding. At times one wonders whether or not all the work is worth it — until opening night comes, said junior Erin Albert. Students who had lead roles were Erin Albert as Sarah Brown; Richard Koons as Sky Masterson; Trish Hood as Miss Adelaide; and James DeCocq as Nathan Detroit. Junior James DeCocq says, The direction and leadership of Mrs. Sandy Weyer, Mrs. Beverly Nantkes, Mr. Richard Clark and many talented young people helped make Guys and Dolls a huge success.

Spring Musical 21 Competition ., Builds __ Future Skills The preparation for the one- day Academic Decathlon com- petition started early in the school year. One morning each week, the members got together to listen to guest speakers about various subjects. After all the practice came the real competi- tion day, January 14, at North- ridge High School. The nine WHS members took part in 10 different tests which included speeches, interviews, essays and written tests. Next, the whole team competed in a Super- quiz. Sponsor Mrs. Elizabeth Stitt commented, We were ex- cited about how well the team did and are looking forward to next year. Another team who had a one- day compeition was Spell Bowl. Practices consisted of taking practice tests and members were given a little dictionary of words to study. This was our third year and we ' ve always done pretty well, said sponsor Mr. John Killeen. All of the Spell Bowl ' s hard work paid off in their 2nd place finish in the sec- ond division. The Quiz Bowl team was per- haps the most competitive aca- demic team. This group prac- ticed every Monday, with matches every Wednesday for nine weeks straight. There is both a B-team and Varsity which competed against other area schools. Mr. John Killeen, also the sponsor for Quiz Bowl, com- mented, Although the three or four best players graduated last year, this years, team is holding its own.

Whether it was teaching a child, sharing joy, or lending a helping hand, students got out and sup- ported their concern for others with action all year long. Project TEACH is for all stu- dents interested in helping the education of others. It gave us a chance to teach, but also to learn from the students at the same time, said senior Jennifer Jenkins. As a senior, a student may begin teaching in any area school in which a student assis- tant is requested. Although National Honor So- ciety recognizes academically-in- clined students, it is also a ser- vice organization. At Christmas time, the members had the idea to visit children in the hospitals. Students gave the kids coloring books and crayons. In the spring, these students sponsored a blood drive and encouraged other students to give a little time and blood to those in need. It makes me feel good to know that when a student has a problem, I can help, remarked senior Peggy Butler of FAT. Friends Always There is an orga- nized group trained to look for potential victims of depression and suicide. The different mem- bers got together and presented a program about suicide aware- ness to all health classes.

Throughout the year these students competed with other county schools in areas such as public speaking, leader- ship, and general talent, all of which are based on agricultural knowledge. FFA is open to any student enrolled in a vocational agriculture class, and this club helps these students prepare for different careers associated with agriculture. Besides just learning about ag- riculture and applying that knowledge, the FFA members participated in other activities as well. They had their own basket- ball team and were also involved in an FFA basketball tourna- ment. The Multi-Cultural Club was revived and once again open to all students interested in learning about their personal heritage backgrounds. The purpose of the club is to increase individual self-esteem towards oneself and others, as well as to understand different cultures. The club orga- nized a trip to a black history museum and got together a choir to sing at the black history program. I feel that this organization is going to be a big success, and we, in the Multi-Cultural Club, will be better than before, said Mrs. Constance Green, sponsor of the club. At its largest ever, the Ushers Club worked at several events during the past year. All of the school programs, such as plays, concerts, and graduation, were accompanied by the Ushers Club. The members collected money, passed out programs, helped keep the audiences qui- et, and whatever else was asked of them to add to the success of the different school functions. As a group fighting against many of the student population, the members of SADD had their work cut out for them. Their big- gest goal each year is to encour- age more people not to drink and drive, or just not drink at all. The most active times of SADD ' s campaign was during the holiday season and prom time. During Christmas and New Year, red ribbons and stickers were distributed to the students, in hopes of persuading them to join SADD ' s cause. As couples were preparing for the prom, the members of SADD were sending rental shops pamphlets to hand out to all students and contacting res- taurants, asking them to serve teenagers one free non-alcholic drink with their dinner. m The 1988-1989 Multi-Cultural Club - Front Row: Karen Page, Darneshia Clark, Stacey Carothers, Michelle Davis, Tshombe Brown, Tonya Spears, Denise Anderson.

Besides holding the first school dance of the year, the combined staffs held the largest and most enthusiastic drive to sell yearbooks in years. In the effort, every English room was decorated to remind the stu- dents of the sale. Name stamp- ing was even offered to the en- tire school for the first time. The success of this year ' s newspaper came from the ideas of students who attended sum- mer camp at Franklin College, and the yearbook staff who at- tended Indiana University ' s camp for the new looks that were added to this year ' s book. As Courtney Vanslager put it, It ' s hard, but it ' s worth it.

From the fresh- men to the seniors, the thrill of competition and school spirit could be seen exploding during the entire week. The junior class prepared for the homecoming ahead of time by hiring a D.J., selling flowers, setting up days for Spirit Week, and all the other essential re- sponsibilities that go along with sponsoring Basketball Home- coming. The Class of ' 90 also managed to obtain both spirit sticks for their creative and high- spirited hall and gymnasium dec- orations. The sophomores re- ceived a traveling stick for their astounding school spirit. This Basketball Homecoming was highlighted by the 72 to 64 victory over the Michigan City Elston Red Devils.

Knowing It All Students sometimes portrayed a weary and worn look but underneath grew a twinge of restlessness, excite- ment, and even hope. To most, the cause of this transition was unknown. Some say it ' s a sickness or simply student insanity gone rampant; but the stu- dents knew the source of this transformation: they had entered The Friday Zone. Although some students lived for Friday, when asked what aspect of aca- demic life she found most rewarding, senior Kolleen Rybicki replied, The hope of getting a good job— ev- erybody wants to be suc- cessful. Academic pressures, lengthy assignments, and hours of study, were rea- sons for the overwhelming desire to break away. Only later in life do stu- dents realize that the class- es and homework they so often tried to escape from will be made into the mem- ories they will remember the most. This is why the hopes and headaches of the 1988-89 classroom is a view of the future memo- ries to come. Body lingo says a lot about students and their attitudes. As observed in Mrs. Dora Goldberg ' s French class, senior Robert Hayes moves in for le kill while sophomore Lance Kvetko remains calme, content, et rationnel toujours. C) Academics Means Knowing It All Concentrating on all the right elements to develop a formula for an A is essen- tial for all chemistry students. Mathematically, it ' s proven that two brains equal an awesome answer; sophomores Maria Stancati and Robin Teske check it out.

As they open the covers, or in some cases, peel back the dete- riorated remains of one, English students are teleported into an- other world: a world where any- thing is possible and imagery and imagination know no limita- tions except the ones set by themselves. For most, flipping through the pages of A Separate Peace, Ro- meo and Juliet, Mythology, Ju- lius Caesar, The Scarlet Letter, Huckleberry Finn and Macbeth, are memorable and sometimes even painful reminders of their Kerry Madden: English helped me develop a better style of self- English careers. The literary journey really de- parts freshman year as minds travel along the way gathering valuable insights on human na- ture, reoccuring themes in litera- ture, writing skills, elements of speech, and, of course, gram- mar. All of which play key roles in the goal of preparing students for the future by developing thinking and reasoning skills which are essential when trying to overcome the obstacles of life. Books can be an invitation to anywhere one desires. Completely captivated by her book, Michelle Zepka is totally un- aware of class life around her. Sophomore Lance Kvetko reads all about it with his trusty Memory Lane |-latchet bookmark close by his side. English 35 Computers Continually Pull Us Into The Future . . . Another Step Forward In Math Computers invaded WHS in even greater numbers this year. Programming skills are math skills; math students write the packages that English and busi- ness classes buy. To successfully write these programs students need the log- ic and sequential ordering of ge- ometry and the knowledge of variables, equations, and formu- las of algebra. In the next five years every class may have a computer. In the next 10-12 years, I predict every student will have his her own computer in class.

Now we realize that com- puters are not just machines, but a way of increasing the human potential. 36 Another Step Forward In Math Just knowing that teacher Mr. Paul Lacy is close by for added incentives and help- ful hints gives freshman Tyrone Thorpe an edge on completing his math assign- ments. Theorems are a fundamental part of any geometry class. Sophomore Jerry Walk- er gives his all as he points out how the Pythagorean Theorem applies to his problem. As he finds algebra easy to digest, fresh- man Billy Langhofer stares down with confidence at his review questions. Math 37 Audiovisual Advances Bring The Past into The Present History Comes To Life Interpretation and analysis of a man and his past whether it be political, environmental, or evo- lutionary is what history is all about. History is an awesome compilation of uprisings, social conditions and economic re- forms. What students learn today is based on the mistakes others have made in the past. What is learned from the past, propels and prepares people for the tri- als and triumphs of the future. When asked about his Early and Modern World class, fresh- man Jay Quaco said, Mr. Kil- leen is such an exciting individ- Mr. Wayne Harsh: True in- telligence is in understand- ing one moment of history.

To not learn about history is to not know about yourself and your country, said junior Da- mon Pittman. Audiovisual equipment also brought the past into the pre- sent.

The Adams Chronicles, Dream West, and the Agony and Ecstasy were just some of the visual aides viewed by histo- ry students this year. This is how students were of- fered education and entertain- ment at the same time. 38 History Comes To Life . One way to teach freshmen about civili- zation is through the emphasis of man- kind ' s positive behavior which is evident in the cooperative study habits of fresh- men Deloris Boatman. Brant Morris and Todd Thompson. Election ' 88 brought the voting process into the classroom as television brought the Bush Dukakis campaign into the home. Seniors Karen Lapkiewicz and Noe Gonzales cast their votes. Upholding Mr. Wayne Marsh ' s tradition of explaining political cartoons, junior Derek Vanslager summarizes one depict- ing the proposed pay raise for Congress. Social Studies 39 Even though perilous temperatures are being trapped in our planet ' s atmo sphere, freshmen LaRhonda Hosea and Tenise Cornelius have to bundle up to study the Greenhouse Effect. One of the common substances burned in the crucibles of the chemistry labs is magnesium, sophomores demonstrat- ed here by Kim Morris and Marsca Landuit. While taking a test, junior Aaron Bi- linski has no problem with remember- ing the physics equations he learned in class. As a step for preparing for careers in engineering, seniors Tom Gooley and Rahman Johnson investigate the beha- viors of electronical circuits. 40 Equate Science Theories, Labs, And Formulas Equate Science One of the experiments performed by tfie earth science class is studying the Greenhouse Effect. Junior Tom Riley waits patiently to record the results of the lab. Trevor Moreno: Science pre- pares the mind for tomorrow ' s teciinology. Students worked through a year of formulas and equations. All of this was necessary to com- plete the new two-year science requirement. Mr. Patrick Gullifor described the basis of the second-year biol- ogy class. The principle lab is the dissection and study of the cat. The students learn about the structure and function of their own bodies since the anato- my and physiology of the cat and the human are quite simi- ar. The physics course consisted of mind-boggling problems and computer applications in the air- track labs. This was also the first year for a second-year physics class. The labs involved were la- ser optics, charge to mass ratios, and AC and DC circuits. Miss Laurie Bednarek spoke for all the science teachers when she described her science course as a pre-college class. I can ' t make it real hard, but I can ' t make it easy. Sometimes difficulties arise when trying to do problems out of textbooks. Sopho- more Barbie Lutomski asks a fellow classmate for help on a solution as she challenges herself in chemistry. Even with the knowledge of complex equations, understanding them can sometimes make a person stop and think as senior T.J. Kubisiak realizes. Science 41 When The Going Gets Tough And You Can ' t Get Going You Need A Helping Hand For some students when the going gets tough, they can ' t get going because of set backs and limitations. Problems for stu- dents arise in various areas whether it be in the home, class- room or society. Learning strategies is a class that provides tutoring to help students achieve at their highest potential. It also serves as a re- source for teachers and stu- dents. The emotionally handicapped programs assist students with day-to-day emotional problems along with regular academic course work. Theresa King: I couldn ' t be where I am now if it wasn ' t H for the help I received. Cheez! Could Melissa Cruz ' s big smile be for what she ' s seeing or what she ' s hearing? This freshman will never tell. The pre-vocational education program is really a school within a school for its approximately 35 students. The students are placed in a number of local busi- nesses to acquire job skills be- fore graduation. Another program designed to enhance students ' self-esteem and academic ability Is Bridge. This program is open to stu- dents from all racial back- grounds and academic abilities, and tries to prevent students from quitting on themselves and school. We focus mainly on the individual and not so much on the curriculum, said teacher, Mr. Drew Danik. All of these programs are truly a success! Bridge students find Principal Dave Kaser ' s interest and concern for their future inspiring as he speaks to them on the obtainment of goals and the impor- tance of achievements. Whatever the individual ' s learning strate- gy. Mrs Carol Burgess keeps a watchful eye on sophomore. Ben Toombs, junior Yancy Painter, and freshman Mike Wal- lace. 42 You Need A Helping Hand When in need of help with current as- signments, senior Ron Whitt and fresh- man Frankie Hernandez can count on teacher, Mr. Spencer Aronson, for his guidance. Learning strategies can be an amazing amount of help when doing and grading your own work. Junior Heshimu Boyd finds this system beneficial in his learning endeavors. Coming to terms with day-to-day difficul- ties, freshmen James Japa and Julia Fritz, sophomore, Michelle Gardner, and Amy Zdoniak progress steadily. Bridge Labs 43 Concentration and translation go hand in hand while sophomore Chris Makowski impresses Latin into his brain the old fashion way; he learns it. Latin scholar Doug Brenner studies with enthusiasm after winning Mr. Casmir Pikuza ' s seal of approval. First-year French keeps Mrs, Dora Goldberg busy with the endless pur- suit of memorizing important verb conjugations and vocabulary which will be mandatory for success in lat- ter years of French. 1 .. i .Jm W Hi r 1 % 11  l Kimt «i« ■ r I  Feelings, Thoughts, Actions, And Abilities Express It All F Whether one says it with words or with creativity, stu- dents are expressing themselves and asserting their right for indi- vidualism. The ways in which they chose to portray their ideas, their feelings, and their in- ner thoughts make strong per- sonal statements about the stu- dents who comprise Washington High School. Some chose to broaden their horizons through the learning of second languages like French, Spanish, German and Latin. This expression takes on a whole new meaning when alien influences such as culture, traditions, and history vastly varied from that of our own seep into the con- science corners of our brains. Kelly Kolber: I expect advan- tages in the future from learning Spanish. Further study of languages makes differences abroad more understood and more readily ac- cepted. Yet, while some chose to ex- press themselves with vocabu- lary besides their native one, others chose to reveal them- selves, artistically. Capturing that feeling with the click of a shutter, swipe of a pen, stroke of a brush, shadings of a pencil. or molding of a delicate hand are all techniques used in the art de- partment to create images of beauty. From any angle one peers in- side Washington, the view ex- pressed is one of originality, per- sonality and creativity. 44 Express It All One technique used by senior Raquel Buress in her design is shading: the filling up of more or less darkness in a picture to receive a desired effect of contrast. With the delicacy that only an artist can possess, sophomore Jason Verstraete captures the essence of the human anat- omy of body builders in his drawing Mass. One can ' t be afraid of making a mess while he ' s in ceramics class; sophomore Jessica Leszczynski discovers this as the chips fly while she carves her master- piece.

A 14th Century Christmas Antonio Vivaldi Brings The Christmas Season To Washington A 14th Century Christmas As the lights went up on the stage of our auditorium, cellos, violins and violas began a rhyth- mic melody. A triumphant shout of Gloria! shot out over the audience, as it was taken back in time to the fourteenth century. Washington ' s choir led by Mrs. Virginia Long-Cecil, and or- chestra led by Mr. Richard Clark, combined to bring the school ' s annual Holiday Con- cert.

The orchestra really gave an added touch to the concert which sparked the audience, said sophomore Neil Daniels. The holiday concert was an enjoyable experience which I ' ll never forget, said senior Jenni- fer Haluda. The choir and orchestra had several other performances throughout the year, including the spring concert and the fall- musical. They also performed for the feeder schools. Under the direction of Mrs. Virginia Long-Cecil, the concert choir boister- ously peals the opening number Gloria by Antonio Vivaldi. At the beginning of Gloria, Mr. Rich- ard Clark plays a rhythmic melody on the bass.

Health class not only teaches students how to create a better body but also how to protect it from danger, said sophomore Ron Compton. These three classes teach that it is not only necessary to keep the body in shape but also the mind and the soul; and they teach how to affiliate these same standards in the everyday life of the classroom. 4V 52 Health Does A Body G ood Audiovisual equipment is a valuable as- set to Mr. Scott Bovenkerk ' s health class.

Physical Education Weight Training Health 53 Changing The Way We Live Computers Mean Business The business world has changed dramatically ever since the invention of the computer. The business teachers have found it necessary to continually upgrade their computers and software to keep up. Keyboarding used the basics of word processing programs on microcomputers to write letters, reports, and tables. Mrs. Bonnie Sandburg explained that it was only 10 years ago that those ba- sics were taught as advanced concepts and typed on manual typewriters. Office labs and word process- ing classes went a step further Latrina McCauley: I ' m pre- paring for tomorrow ' s business world today. First-year accounting student sopho- more James Eby figures out how to correct errors made on the work- sheet for Cycle Center. with keyboarding and used CPT and Systel word processors, Ap- ple and IBM compatible comput- ers, and electronic typewriters. These made correcting docu- ments easier for the students. Dot matrix, letter quality, and laser printers were among the variety of printers used in these classes. Junior Marie Mosgrove confirms her un- derstanding of criminal law with that of Mrs. Rosemary Coomes in her first year of business law. Electronic typewriters make the job of learning the basics of keyboarding easier for sophomores Leslie Balint and Chris- tine Butler. Besides the business teachers taking pride in their jobs, the stu- dents also developed a sense of interest for the computers. They not only learn how to op- erate the equipment, but they learn how to take care of it and value it for the sophisticated piece of machinery it is, said Mrs. Sue Paulin. 54 Computers Mean Business After junior Jenny Maciejewski finishes talking dictation at a rapid speed in her shorthand class, she will accurately tran- scribe her notes on a computer.

Whether it was the cheer of the crowd or the glory of a victory that drew the players is unknown, but hundreds of students took part in sports ranging from football and baseball, to girls soccer. Athletic competition and sportsmanship have long been a part of the Panther tradition. We have shown defi- nite improvement, but we would like more students participating, said Mr. Steve Herczeg, athletic di- rector.

The girls ' softball team is no exception to heated competition that is high school athletics. Many hours of practice and determination are the means by which the season was made. A lot of time was spent on improving the girls ' basics and going over strategies and plays to use in different situations. There was extensive prepara- tion for the season: trying play- ers at different positions, pre- paring them defensively, offensively, physically, and men- tally along with realizing players ' strengths and weaknesses. A lack of senior leadership and inexperience were two rea- sons for the disappointing sea- son, but next year looks bright with all of the upperclass letter- men, said Denise VanWyns- berghe. The team returns seven start- ers to the lineup cdong with two other letter winners. The players voted Colleen Cassidy Most Valuable Player and Shawn Huffine received the Sportmanship Award.

Baseball 68 Did you know that in August of 1913 a 182 pound man, Edward Blies, who was 50 years old and a 12 handicap player hit the longest drive in golf history, 445 yards! In years since, no one has come within 15 yards of this mark and even the famed Jack Nicklaus ' s best attempt is 100 yards short. Did you know that the oldest golfing club in the world is the Honorable company of Edinburg Golfers which was created in March of 1744. Did you know the lowest recorded score for throwing a golf ball around 18 holes (over 6,000 yards) is 82 by Joe Flynn, 21, at the 6,228- yard Port Royal Course, Bermuda, on March 27, 1975.

Be- cause of the team ' s size, Coach Stumpf said that coaching was a challenge. The basics were of stressed importance this year because of the large number of first-year players. Most Valuable Player was jun- ior Kellie Howe; sportmanship award went to senior Jenny Abigt; and senior Beth Lang re- ceived the Kiwanis Award. We discovered ourselves as well as our team importance, and learned along the way that sometimes it ' s harder and more important to create a victory from defeat, said sophomore Lisa Thompson. We ' re a young team, but we are gain- ing experience. — Christina Deleon Power and preciseness are two compli- ments which can be given to senior Lynn McCarthy ' s backhand. Good form and shoulder rotation are what made senior Jenny Abigt ' s fore- hand a killer. Girls Tennis 73 w unning At The Top Of The Heat The track team may have only won one meet, but they broke many records. Senior Most Valuable Player, Cindy Stallworth, upped her school record total to three. Her time of 2.20 in the 800-meter was the final one to fall. She also owns the 100 and 400-meter records. Her times earned her first in the state in the 400-meter and third in the 100-meter. The 1600-meter relay team of sophomores Tricia Sekendy, Andrea Kaser, Dionne Wade, and Stallworth set the school record in the sectionals with a 4.08 time and earned them a berth in the regionals. Our record of 1-8 didn ' t rep- resent our track team. The other girls on the team always did very well in their events, but we had to give up too many points be- cause of our shortage of people. Our record would have been a lot better if we had more peo- ple, said Sekendy. Although our record didn ' t show it, we had many individ- uals who stood out. — Andrea Kaser -ns !eii5 ' .«. .X- fix vaon QU W The 1600 meter relay record holders (sophomores Tricia Sekendy. Andrea Kaser, Dionne Wade, alternate Amy Ma- giera, and senior Cindy Stallworth) now hold the record at 4.08. Sophomore Amy Magiera concentrates on a good start for the 400-meter run. 74 Running At The Top Of The Heat Sophomore Tricia Sekendy finishes the 800 with her best time yet, 2.38. The fastest time recorded for running 100 yards backwards is 13.3 seconds by Paul Wilson on April 10, 1977.

The best amateur standing high jump is S ' lOVa by Rune Almen on December 8, 1974. Joe Darby, reportedly cleared 6 ' with his ankles tied on June 11, 1892. The oldest held race is the Red Hose Race held in Scotland, since 1507. First prize is a pair of hand-knitted knee length red stockings. G. Track 75 The fastest time recorded for the 100- meter dash I by a blind man is 11.4 seconds by Graham Henry Solomaon of ' . Loughton, Essex, England, at Grangemouth, Scotland, on September 2, 1978. Arnie Boldt, of Saskat- chewan, Canada, cleared a height of 6 feet 6% inches indoors in 1977, in spite of the fact that he has only one leg. The earliest known Olympiad dates from July, 776 B.C. The oldest surviving measurement is a long jump of 23 feet 1 and a V2 inch by Chionis of Sparta in 656 B.C. Long-distance runner, Robin Hill, pushes himself towards the finish line. Sectional finalist, Gene Kyle, places third in the 100-meters with a 10.88. The 1988 Boy!

Junior Matt Elick lands in the pit with a 22 ' 3% jump. ever Look Back Although the boys ' track team as a whole suffered through a long and hard season, there were many individuals who stood out. Consistently there were those members of the team who led the pack and caused opposition nothing but trouble. Senior Matt Elick was a major force at the head of the team. Elick was second head of the team. Elick was second team all- conference in the long jump and he placed eighth in the state meet. Junior Marion Moore was also a valuable asset to the team and won the 300 low hurdles at re- gional. Junior Brian Blake was the re- cipient of the sportsmanship award, and Elick was voted MVP. We were very good in in- dividual events - Matt Elick Boys Track 77 T urning The Corner As is common to any football program, many goals are set that push a team to reaching the title of champion. The 1988- 89 Panther football team accom- plished these goals and obtained the title of City Champions as they held a 4-1 record through- out the regular season. Some of the steps taken were back-to-back victories (a goal not accomplished since 1984); the defeated opponents were Gary Wirt and St. Joe. Along with the back-to-back wins also came the best winning record of any senior team since 1984, with 10 victories. The team also had a record high game by scoring 36 points, the most points scored in a single game since 1973 wlien the Pan- thers were State Champions. The team finished 4-2 in their 4A division. Coach Scott Boven- kerk said, I ' m pleased with the direction the program is head- ing. I think the win over St. Joe will make work in the off-season easier. _ Looking into the football lock- er room, a person can see the goals, the triumphs, and the title of champions worn by proud Panthers. Bracing himself for a hit, junior Demetri- us Jackson puts his head down and fights forward. I ' m pleased with the direction that the program is heading. — Coach Scott Bovenkerk 78 Turning The Corner After slipping by the last St. Joe defend- er, senior Antiny Kelley fieads toward tfie end zone unchallenged.

Th e most fumbles by a pro team during a season was 56 by the 1938 Chicago Bears. In contrast, the record for the fewest fumbles over a season is held by the 1959 Cleveland Browns, who fumbled only 8 times. The longest undefeated streak in football is held by Washington University. From 1907 to 1917, in 63 games, their record was 59 wins and 4 ties. The high school team of Hugo, Colo., once had a 3-game stretch in which they scored 386 points and held their opponents to 6 points.

While striving for the goal to place well in sectionals, the young Panther squad, which consisted of all underclassmen, was not let down. Led by junior co-captains, Andrea Kaser and Tricia Sekendy, the team fin- ished sixth out of 17 teams.

The boys ' cross country team finished with its best record since the 1980-81 team, at 4-10. The team was paced by Terry Stemm, senior MVP. Stemm was named to the second All- NIC team and finished 15th in the boys ' sectional at Erskine Golf Course with a time of 17.29. Senior Matt Elick earned the sportsmanship award, and senior Doug Burnham received the Kiwanis Award.

It is a sport that re- quires many skills, such as sportsmanship, patience, good physical condition and lots of practice to excel as an individual or as a team. Lots of dedication and team- work is what made our season what it was, said sophomore Kim Dove. Although we didn ' t have a winning season, we never gave up on ourselves and played our best until the game ended, said Leslie Balint. The team was led by goalie and MVP Kipp Wier- enga. The sportsmanship award was presented to senior Angela Bradley, and Melody Callander was chosen as the Kiwanis Award recipient. 86 Dedication Is The Key The 1988 Girls ' Soccer Team - Front Row; Rachel Napieralski, Kipp Wier- enga, Leslie Balint, Heather Balint, Kim Dove; Back Row: Rebecca Salazar, Jill Tunis, Cristina DeLeon, Angela Bradley, Melody Callander, Tracy Wickizer, Pen- ny Karn, Coach Chris Carpenter.

Jones set this record for heading when he was 15- years-old. Soccer teams in Kenya frequently retain medicine men to stand by the field mumbling incantations and casting spells because many of the players depend on witchcraft for luck cind confidence. A ball is occasionally taken out of play because a team claims it has been bewitched. Dave Lovatt of Derby, England, was fined 10 shillings for smiling at a referee during a game.

They proved themselves capa- ble of competing with many teams by defeating LaSalle, New Prairie, LaVille, Elkhart Memori- al and by advancing in sectionals with a victory over LaSalle. The team was coached by Mr. Jeffrey Stumpf and had many returning players. Among those returning were captain Rich Bo- gucki, Greg LeeVan, Steve Bonek, J.J. Perry and George Brenner, all juniors, along with Mike Zielinski, a senior. New ad- ditions to the team included sen- iors Rich Horvath and Keith Lauver, along with sophomore Terry Litka and freshmen Nick Kenkel and Todd Thompson.

Gambler ' s at the site of the dive, an Austrian cliff, offered 5-1 odds that he would not make the dive, and 10-1 odds that if he did dive, he wouldn ' t live. Wickham lost consciousness before he hit the water, but survived. His bathing suit was torn off by the force of the landing, and his entire body was black and blue for several weeks.

We must continue to improve our overall program of condition- ing — Coach Kristi Walz Coach Walz said that the girls faced a lot of tough teams, but at all times showed high spirits and gave their opponents a good competition. Before every match the girls could be found building up their enthusiasm and cheering each other on. Fortunately, for the team there were many young mem- bers. With a lot of hard work and more of the team ' s spirit, only good times can be ahead. Total concentration helps junior Sara Marvin make those tough dives. Diving is a big part of every swim meet, and Washington chose juniors Sara Mar- vin, Julie Lewis and Barbie Ciesielski to represent them.

A View Inside The Paint The Paint This year could be explained as a rebuilding year. The Pan- thers utilized a magnitude of un- derclassmen. We ' re a young team with only three seniors and one re- turning letterman, said Coach Mike Otolski. We ' re not skilled and mature enough to handle the teams that are senior domi- nated. We never had a set lineup from game to game due to a lack of experience, said senior Troy Moreno. Otolski concluded, Because of the underclassmen ' s work ethics, we expect a complete turn around for next year. I ' m happy with the progress of the team considering the inex- perience we started with. — Coach Otoloski Sophomore Kevin Putz puts up an awk- ward, but accurate shot as the St. Joe defenders surround him. Boys Basketball 93 R iWLl elying On Teamwork Many sports rely on a well- disciplined effort, along with teamwork, in order to be suc- cessful. The Junior Varsity bas- ketball team had these essen- tials. The JV, who had a record of 8-12, played well this year al- though their record did not veri- fy this. The JV, coached by Jim Kowalski, competed most of the season with a seven-man team consisting of sophomore guards Gary Demski, Al Futz, Trevor Moreno and Troy Murphy. Junior torwards Preston Johnson, Greg Gadson and Ryan Matthys helped the cause before being moved up to the Varsity. Juniors John Kehoe and Aar- After moving into the lane, freshman Ty- rone Thorpe pulls up for a shot as he draws the foul. We had talent, but many times we were out manned playing with only seven peo- pie. Ryan Matthys on Bilinski also contributed by splitting their time between B- team and Varsity action. Although we were small, we played with a lot of heart, and a lot of hustle, which enabled us to be as competitive as we were, said Demski. The freshman basketball team, coached by Drew Danik, was led by Charles Richmond, Cory Smith and Matt Pellico. Despite a record of 5-10, the team lost two games in over- time, three games by three points, and one game by five points. Our team is like the ' Sleep- ing Giant ' China.

The teams had been practicing for months, and it was going tc culminate into one glorious show of might at Jackson Field In the first quarter, the sen- iors were first to strike. They got a touchdown, but failed to convert the extra point The juniors fought back admirably with two scoring drives for themselves. In the second quarter, the seniors sacked the juniors ' quarterback in the end zone. That was the end of any kind of scoring drive for the seniors. The halftime program was 102 another long-awaited battle be- tween the freshmen and the sophomores in a tug-of-war. As soon as the whistle blew, the freshmen had already won. It was to be expected as the spir- ited freshmen outnumbered the sophomores three to one. In the third quarter, the jun- iors came out on the attack, scoring several more touch- downs. In this quarter, the sen- iors were served a disastrous turn of events: the senior quar- terback had been injured. For- tunately, it was not serious. In the fourth quarter, it was obvious that the seniors had been beaten. Final score 32-8.

World Unites To Save Whales For decades our planet has been constantly adding chemicals to the atmosphere which has increased the list of endangered species. Man in his hunting and poisoning with chemicals has put all creatures on the defensive. However, as winter set in. in 1988, the world showed a view of how things could be. Everyday citizens, the mili- tary, large corporations and even a foreign superpower joined together so that the lives of three humpback whales might be saved. The whales did not leave for their migration south in time and became trapped by ice. They would die if the hole they were surfacing through iced over. Fortunately for the large mammals, publicity made their plight known to millions. Although the small- est of the three whales could not be saved, thanks to Alas- kan citizens, de icing ma- chines, military helicopters, and even a Soviet icebreaker, the remaining two whales are probably living it up off the coast of California. A Storybook Season Ends At 12-0 Outlined against a blue-gray October sky, the four horsemen rode again. In medieval lore they are known as death, destruction, famine and pestilence, but these are only aliases; their real names are Rice, Watters, Brooks and Ishmail. These new four horsemen of Notre Dame along with a powerhouse defensive package led by Frank Stams, Mike Stonebreaker and Andy Heck, have brought Notre Dame its eighth National Championship title. It was a story-book season for the men in blue and gold. After defeating Big Ten rivals, Michigan, Michigan State, the Fighting Irish also went on to beat Stanford and Pitt. Then came Notre Dame ' s biggest game yet . . . Miami! The game against Miami was full of surprises, including seven turnovers, sacking an unsacked quarterback two times, and a victory! Notre Dame defeated 1 Miami, 31-30. After beating Air Force and Navy, the Irish were then named 1 in the nation and stayed there after defeating Rice, Penn State and Big Ten rival 2 U.S.C. Notre Dame then traveled to Tempe, Arizona, to face 3 West Virginia in the Fiesta Bowl, which they won 34-21 declaring them the National Champions. After winning the Fiesta Bowl, head coach Lou Holtz said, I never believed this would happen. This is the happiest day in my life! It certainly was a happy day in South Bend, Indiana, as it laid claim to the National Champions in college football. Touchdown Jesus inspired the Fighting Irish to their eighth National Championship. The Only Way Is Up Uplifting was how sen- ior Arnez Gooden described the Upward Bound program, a program designed for un- der-represented students which prepares them for col- lege. There is an academic pro- gram during the school year and an academic resident program during the summer. Throughout the school year, the students are closely moni- tored on their grades. On Wednesdays, they can get tu- toring assistance from Notre Dame and St. Mary ' s students in any subject. During the summer the stu- dents move into the dorms on campus a nd attend classes daily. The third-year students take government and receive school credit. During Bridge year, which is after gradua- tion, they take two college courses and receive college credit hours. Senior Arnez Gooden said, The program is not ail aca- demic; it ' s also fun. We take educational trips as well as compete in sporting events. Senior Rahman Johnson added, Upward Bound is a wonderful opportunity for any college-bound student because it provides a look at real life college atmo- sphere. Sophomore Misty Kuykendall concluded, What you put into it is what you get out of it. — By Arnez Cooden Mini-Mag 103 A Moment In Time Every four years since 1892, countries have put aside their differences and gathered to com- pete in various events. This year Seoul, Korea, hosted the XXIV Olympiad. One hundred and sixty-one nations and 15,000 athletes competed in over 200 events. The United States ended up third overall in the total medal count, with 36 gold, 31 silver, and 27 bronze. America ' s best events VKere track and field, and swimming and diving, each with 26 medals. Some Olympic heroes included Matt Biondi, a swimmer who won seven medals; 17 year-old Janet Evans, who won three gold medals in swimming; and Greg Louganis, who won two gold medals in the 10-meter platform and spring- board diving. He became the first male diver to win two gold medals twice despite having five stitches in his head after hitting it on the board during the preliminaries of the springboard com- petition. Florence Griffith Joyner and Jackie Joyner- Kersee won or shared five-sixths of the US gold medals in womens track and field, and each broke a world record. Also victorious was Carl Lewis, who won two golds and a silver, in track and field. Other memorable events include the positive testing of drugs in several medal winners includ- ing Ben Johnson, whose gold medal in the 100- meter race was forfeited to Carl Lewis. Another controversy occurred in boxing when American boxer Roy Jones lost a gold medal. He had clearly won the bout, but in a split decision, the medal was given to Park Si-Ahun, a Korean boxer. Despite the many shortcomings, the Ameri- cans still broke many records and came home with a total of 94 medals. Hesitation is not In tlie vocabulary of world-class diver Greg Louganis, wlio dives riglit in for a second United States gold medal. Back In The Space Race We have liftoff. After 32 months of anxiety and toil, came the exhilaration . . . Americans were back in space. The tragic destruction of the space shuttle set the United States ' advancements in space behind the USSR in the significant number of space shuttle missions. Seven- ty-three seconds after the launch of Challenger, the downfall began. The explo- sion was caused by a leak in the O rings which are de- signed to hold gases from the burning fuel from the booster rockets. But nearly 1000 days later, the United States was back on its feet. After nearly three years of grief and uncertainty, Ameri- cans were back in space, and sending up rocket ships was once again an adventure. Although it was not the first actual shuttle takeoff, as a psychic landmark, the Dis- covery launch was acknowl- edged with the nation ' s first space exhibition. The shuttle had been essentially rede- signed, just as NASA ' s guide- lines for flying had been. Along with fixing the boost- er-rocket joints, NASA con- verted other items to improve the space shuttle. Better han- dling gear, fuel valves and an escape system were among the most significant. The space mission was an uplift- ing experience because it brought pride back into the hearts of Americans. It gave respect to the United States space program and we are on our way once again, (infor- mation taken from Newsweek, October 10, 1988.) i All Problems Solved iGotta hunch? Here ' s the bunch. FPS members — Front Row: Tom Wekony, J.I. Perry, Erin Albert, Melody Callander, Denise Jansen; Back Row: Francis Findley, Ryan Trzaskowski, sponsor Mr. Jim McPhee, George Brenner, Shawn Rogers. 104 Mini Mag Although relatively small in size, Fu- ture Problem Solvers started the year off with a bang by taking a first-place rating on the first problem, which was based on energy ' s dwindling sources and its increased consumption. The members involved in this winning team were Erin Albert, Tom Wekony and Shawn Rogers. Other problems brought to FPS ' s attention consisted of how to administer justice to juveniles without abuse and how to improve the nation ' s nutrition. Problem solving is a long process that requires hard work and serious thought. In this particular club, a fuzzy situation (future scenario) is presented to the students. After reading and fully com- prehending the situation, there are six steps to follow: 1. Identify 20 main prob- lems 2. Identify the main problem 3. Produce 20 possible solutions to main problem 4. Develop criteria grid with which to evaluate solutions 5. Pick 10 best solutions and evaluate them on a scale from one to 10, and 6. Describe the best solution and how it would be carried out. Community Helps Homeless The community spirit of volunteerism that was ignited during the Special Olympics is still alive. This spirit only needs to be coordinated once again on an even larger scale to provide services to those in our community who are homeless or near homeless. Estimates of the number of homeless persons in the South Bend Mishawaka are about 1,000. This figure does not only include single men, but single women, single parents, and families. To meet this community need, Notre Dame purchased the Gilbert ' s building to house the homeless, and the United Religious Community has undertaken the management. The Center for the homeless opened when occupants of the Morningside Hotel were forced out because of a fire. The community all pulled together to help their neighbors. The purpose of the Center is to provide easy and immediate access to the entire array of services needed to respond to the basic homeless condition and to help people move beyond this condition. Washington students felt the need to help the community not just by collecting food, but by volunteering their time. Washington sponsored a canned food drive in which over 40,000 cans were collected and distribut- ed to the Salvation Army. Also, students went to the Center to help prepare for the opening by sorting clothes and food. The homeless is a growing problem not |ust in large cities but even in cities like South Bend. With the effort of the community, solutions can be found for these critical problems that arise daily in today ' s world. Washington overflowed with the spirit of giving. As donations flooded in, freshman Anthuny Ford he Mrs. Turner organize contributions to help the plight of the needy. • ood Finds Friends Pizza, hamburgers, and junk food are all typical foods eaten by Ameri- cans daily. However, miso soup, tama- les, empanadas, bollos, and Swedish meatballs were all common food choices for foreign exchange students Hannele Lehtonen, Helena Svedberg Katsuya Kobayashi, Ivette Tiscareno, and Dayra Santamaria, before they left their countries to come to America. All the foreign exchange students agreed that food in the United States is different in some ways from food in their countries. They think that Ameri- can food contains too much oil and fat, but don ' t seem to mind eating the American favorites: hamburgers, pizza, chocolate and junk food Lehtonen said, You have to watch what you eat because of the extra fat, but admits she likes hamburgers without all the junk on it Svedberg also re- marked that in Sweden they have junk food, but do not eat it as much as Americans. Another difference that the ex- change students noticed was that American food is quicker and easier to prepare with the use of the microwave and frozen foods. For instance, Ko- bayashi said, Here vegetables are fro- zen and not really vegetables, where- as in his country vegetables are always fresh. Tiscareno, who likes spicy Mexican food, but can ' t seem to find this kind in the United States, said that since our food is bought and not made by hand, everything tastes the same. She believes, however, Ameri- cans try to make good Mexican food. Because Americans buy so much of their food, another adjustment had to be made. In Panama, Santamaria said, Dinner is usually late, around seven or eight; here it is early and very quick. Usually everything is made by hand and food takes more time to prepare. Despite these differences, all the exchange students coped with Ameri- can life styles. One way Kobayashi coped was by drinking the Japanese tea he brought with him. Other ways were just by enjoying the food here. Everyone had his favorites which in- cluded spaghetti, chili, macaroni and cheese, sauage, and of course, pizza, hamburgers, and junk food. Yummy, yummy lor the tummy is the agreed-upon motto lor these exchange students, Helena Svedberg. Ivette Tiscareno. Hannele Lehtonen. Dayra Santamaria. and Katsuya Kobayashi, who Imd themselves obsessed with last load American style. Mini Mag 105 Summer Of ' 88 — All Dried Up In the summer of ' 88 the U.S. experienced a drought. Although Indiana was only moderately affected, many states like California, Oregon, North Dakota, Utah, Kentucky, Alabama and Ne- vada had severe or extreme drought emergen- cies. Twenty states declared drought emergen- cies. The drought of ' 88 was said to be the worst since the depression. Lawns and people suffered the hot and humid weather. Along with a shortage of water, crops were lost, in some places up to 75 percent. Cities were competing with rural communities for scarce water resources. After several low- inflation years, consumers worried that crop losses would translate into the highest commod- ity prices since the 1970 ' s. Wheat rose from $2.50 a bushel to $4.00 a bushel in one week. In July, corn went from $3.34 a bushel to $7.75 a bushel. Soybeans went from $7.75 a bushel to over $10.00 a bushel (depending upon loca- tion). Consumers expect a 5 percent raise in prices for the summer of ' 89. Meteorologists think that the dry spell actual- ly began two years ago off the coast of Peru and Ecuador with a warm weather current called El Nino, which split into northern and southern branches. Usually the jet stream takes moisture from the Gulf of Mexico and sprays it over the Midwest; due to the split, a large high pressure ridge stretched across the middle of the coun- try. This change blocked the storm systems that carry rain. Another factor to consider is the ozone layer. Scientists say that due to the high rate of pollution and chemicals in the air, the ozone layer is slowly but surely disappearing. Which is another reason for the high temperatures in the summer. Many farmers were comparing the drought with the 1934 Dust Bowl, which was a six-year long dry spell that spread across the Midwest to the Southwest with sand and dryness. Since the beginning of the year of ' 88, Michigan has lost 10,000 acres of land because of fires. This drought was said to be the beginning of the Green House Effect, a global warming, which makes the climate hot, dry and unbear- able. It is expected to warm the earth between 3-21 degrees Farenheit over the next 50 years. This decade has seen the four hottest years of the last century, and the first five months of ' 88 were the warmest on record. If this is indeed the beginning of the Green House Effect, we could expect a 40 percent decline of rainfall, and shortage of water supplies, Insect-borne illness- es would spread widely because they would be able to travel from the tropics to the formerly temperate zones, and larger and warmer sum- mers would bring plagues to the northern for- ests. (Information taken from Newsweek maga- zines June-Sept. ' 88) By: Angela Anne Amador Give A Little — Gain A Lot Many students dream about the day they can final- ly graduate from high school and step into the real world. But there were some students who already had one foot in that world. As Jeremy Miller (M.E.) said, Work tunes you in with what ' s very close ahead. These students divided their day between school and work. ICT, COE, HERO, and Marketing Co-op are offered for students who want to re- ceive high school credit and maintain a steady income from part-time employment. Co-op students made some sacrifices by leaving school early. Jackie Michalski (COE) said, It was a good ex- perience, but I missed out on school and friends. 1 will work the rest of my life. Will Douglas ' (DECA) small regret was that he had to work when he wanted to go out. But the money is a great benefit. Co-op students, however, often gained more than they gave. Richard Williams (ICT) said, Work has helped me get to know myself, what my capabilities are and what I can and can ' t do. An advantage for Jeff Wilmes (ICT) was that his employers at Firestone are sending him to school to be- come an automotive techni- cian. Perhaps Shalaunda Jones learned the most valuable les- son: I learned that the real world is hard, and there aren ' t too many days when your mother can call into your job and excuse you for not coming in; you have a real responsibility and your mother doesn ' t have any- thing to do with it. One Acts Begin Season 106 This past fall, the Drama Club presented three one-act plays on its stage. The first, Silent Snow Se- cret Snow, was a story about Paul Hasheman, played by Jodey Jansen, who has an infatuation with snow. During the hardest times of his life one thing brought him comfort, his snow. The play also featured Lisa Haskel as Miss Brell, and Rachel Cucchiara as Deadre. The second, The Babies, was a story about two people who represent the aver- age man and woman. In the begin- ning of the show, they are infants Mini Mag each pla ced in a high chair who grow up together sharing all aspects of life. The show starred Erin Albert as She, and Richard Koons as He. The third show was a comedy about Alan Lefenfield, played by Andy Budzinski, and his efforts to pass a test he did not study for, while the other students are blatantly cheat- ing in front of the teacher. The show also featured James DeCocq as The Voice and Even; Jill Tunis as Lois; Elea Discavage as Teacher; and Heidi Jeffries as Mother. Babies Richard Koons and Erin Albert experi- ence the growing pains of life. Hoosler hysteria spread as Senator Dan Quayle was named official running mate for the presidential election. Home Boy Heads To D.C. With 426 of 538 electoral votes and 54 percent of the popular vote, the Bush Quayle ticket succeeded in defeating the Dukakis- Bentsen ballot after months of rigorous campaigning. Part of the rigor included choosing the other half of the Bush ballot. Advantages to the nomination of J. Danforth Quayle were his youth and good looks. Many others felt that the largest visible plus Quayle contributed was the fact that he would not overshadow the man at the top. Bushs ' choice of Quayle at the outset would be his Declaration of Independence, a stroke, he believed, that would flatter him by its surprise. After much controversy, especially about his service in the National Guard and endless harassment by the press, Quayle weathered it all. Now it ' s not Hoosier hysteria, but 50-state hysteria with J. Danforth Quayle a heartbeat away from the presidency. (Parts taken from Newsweek Nov. 21, 1988.) tudents Take Europe By Storm Excitement, anticipation and enttiusiasm filled the hearts and minds of Washington students as they departed June 21, 1989 for a 15 -day trip to experience the grandeur and charm of En- gland and France with French teacher Mrs. Dora Goldberg and husband Irvm. The day-to-day schedule was hectic and demanding but ev- eryone seemed to adjust to the time change well Itinerary high- lights included viewing Big Ben and the Changing of the Guard; Windsor Castle; the Hardrock Cafe; Oxford; Roman-built baths; Mont St Michel; Cha- teaux of the Loire; Paris; Notre Dame; Arc de Triomphe; and, of course, the Eiffel Tower We seemed to learn as much about other cultures as we did our own. Going abroad helped us realize what it means to be an American and that no matter what, there is no place like home, said junior Lisa Thompson. Everyone agreed that food, fashion, and fun were elements that bonded teenagers regardless of the nation they were from. When asked what he liked best about the trip, junior Gary VanOverberghe replied, The fine looking women and all the attention I got Bizarre was the word Mrs. Goldberg used to sum up the whole expe- rience. Good times overshadowed the bad and were the elements of beautiful memories and hu- morous tales that were trea- sured and told by students and teacher alike. After a busy day of shopping and sightseeing, tour members Lisa Thompson, Gary VanOverberghe. Rachel Ktota, Carl Lichnerowia, Robin Hill Michelle Hill, Maria Stancati and Michelle Stancati take it easy alter dining in the heart of London. Mini Mag 107 ast The Portraits; — Into The Heart A view inside the life of a Washington student is more than a look at a row of mug shots. Hidden inside every student awaits a story to be revealed, a story of golden talents waiting to shine for all to see. Although time and space would not allow for every story, a few portraits will be painted. Mug shots do show how students look from the out- side, but features take a deeper look, a look past the faces and the clothes to the true blue self. Take a look at the stu- dent body, at a side which is rarely seen, but a side ready to be viewed-the in- side. :::r5sa School spirit is an important part of pep assemblies. Sophomore Kathleen Bras- sel and junior Jeremy Kring know what true Panther spirit is all about. Just back from Hawaii, jet setter junior David Winborn returns to Panther coun- try to entertain the crowd with his hula hands. 108 Past The Portraits; Into The Heart Many Panthers celebrate the victory over the Riley Wildcats. Sophomores Jacqueline Reed, Vicki PeGan, freshman ' Don Posey, and junior Matt Makowski traveled to school field to support the teeun in their first game of the season. Album Division 109 Looking Towards The Future Meeting new graduation require- ments, doing well on the Scholastic Aptitude Test, choosing a career and a college, and meeting many crucial deadlines were just a few of the pres- sures and responsibilities that faced the seniors. In addition to choosing a college and filling out college applica- tions, they found time for jobs, extra- curricular activities and fun. For some, choosing a college was easy. Choosing a college was an easy decision, said Brian MacGowan, who plans to attend Ohio State University. My parents went there and my broth- er went there, so I ' m familiar with the school and I like it. For others, however, this decision was very difficult. This is a difficult decision for me because I want to choose the college that will be best in my chosen field, said Kerry Madden. Choosing a career was another deci- sion seniors had to make. While some seniors leave high school still unsure of a major, Tyrie Giden said that he wants to major in sociology because it has always been a subject where he felt comfortable to express his feel- ings. Rachel Ebel felt her biggest respon- sibility as a senior was making dead- lines for admissions, SAT ' s, financial aid, and college visitations. Keeping their grades up was anoth- er pressure many seniors said they faced. Getting my homework done and playing football was difficult at times, said Kerry Madden, captain of the football team. Despite the many new pressures and responsibilities the Class of 1989 had as seniors, they still found time to participate in athletics and other extra- curricular activities. Before they knew it, their senior year was over, and all the work and preparation went into effect. As the first pep assembly begins, the Class of celebrates being the senior class. 89 Excitement filled the air as Panthers crowded into the gym for the first pep assembly. Senior Jason Kring, full of school spirit, cheers with his Panther pal. 110 Looking Towards The Future After winning the spirit stick for the gym decora- tions, Henry Junior leads his fellow seniors in the cheers. It ' s always a rewarding experience when working with students. Mrs. Christine Banaszak Seniors wasted no time in blowing up balloons for gym decorations. Lajuana Wright finds that an air compressor makes the task much easier. Senior Pantherettes Cynthia Jenkins and Lisa Car- ter prove that practice pays off as they succeed in arousing school spirit. Seniors 111 Class sponsors of the 1989 graduating class, Mrs. Sue Paulin and Mrs. Christine Banaszak, contributed time and effort into helping the senior class. Leaders At Work Football homecoming, the class gift, fundraisers and a winter semi-formal were all responsibilities of the senior class officers and sponsors. Although the prom was the biggest activity to plan over the last four years, re- marked sponsor Mrs. Chris- tine Banaszak, football homecoming was the biggest activity planned the senior year. Decorations, flower sales and the organization of the court were included in the re- sponsibility of planning foot- ball homecoming. As a fundraiser, the class organized a T-shirt sale and used the money to help with the donation of a hundred dollars to charities. This year the class was dif- ferent from previous years because everyone was more mature, excited and enthusi- astic because it was his senior year, said Banaszak. Mrs. Sue Paulin, the other class sponsor, added, It was the best year in terms of stu- dents getting things done. Both sponsors agreed that it was hard to be a class spon- sor and a lot of work went into it, but when working with kids it ' s always worth it. 112 Leaders At Work Senior class officers Ann Wesolowski, Steve Cenova, Keith Lauver, Sharon Hernandez, Denise VanWynsberghe, Lynn Compton, Roy Olivarez, Rahmon Johnson, Tracy Lan- duit, Karen Page, and Cynthia Walker attended a leadership conference at Bendix | Woods. Here they planned many activities for their senior year. Filled with enthusiasm for football home- coming, Arnez Gooden takes a break from decorating to hang around and look at the winning decorations. School spirit is not only for students but for everyone. Principal David Kaser helps the Class of 1989 with their deco- rations.

Sen- iors Tom Gooley and Kcllie Howe heard these words every weekend for three years, three hours a day. Howe participated in a traveling league and bowled in every alley in the South Bend area. Howe ' s favorite house (alley) is the Polish National Alliance. Howe said she began bowling when she was ten-ycars-old because My mom bowled and I always wanted to bowl, so she taught me. Howe ' s average is 148; her highest game is 218. She has won many awards, including high game for girls, high series, high average, and the Al Dlucgosz outstanding bowler award for the 1986-1987 and the 1987-1988 seasons. Howe said, The best part of bowl- ing was not winning the awards, but meeting new people and feeling good after rolling high scores. Trophies and plaques are what Goo- ley is after. Practice is the only way I can stay competitive in the league. Junior bowlers Kellie Howe and Tom Gooley traveled to Regal Lanes with their traveling leagues to compete against each other. To be competitive Gooley practiced twice a week in addition to weekend mornings. All this practice enabled Gooley to achieve an average of 180 and a high score of 256. Gooley began bowling at age three. He started young because My father bowled, so he got me started. Gooley and Howe bowled against each other sometimes, and both said it was a challenge. Having fun and working hard to be the best they can is what bowling is all about for Hows and Gooley.

Spinning Into Action Gasps came from the crowd as she tossed the baton into the air, did an aerial, and then caught the baton in her hand. Senior Denise VanWynsberghe has been twirling her baton for nine years, and it was various moves such as an aerial and a five spin that have won her close to 85 trophies and over 150 medals for her solo performances in Michigan, Ohio, and throughout Indi- ana. She has also traveled with Royal Majesties Baton Corp and won group trophies in Texas, Colorado and Wis- consin. Besides twirling for competition, VanWynsberghe has marched in pa- rades such as the Ethnic Festival pa- rade, Fourth of July parade in North Liberty, Potato Creek Festival, Memo- rial Day parade, and Blueberry Festi- val. Considering all of the walking she does in the parades, VanWynsberghe Work, dedication and hours of practice helped Denise VanWynsberghe win over 80 trophies at various contests in the United States. said, Even though people don ' t think twirling is a sport, it really does keep me in shape. VanWynsberghe practices twice a week at Royal Majesticss an average of half an hour to two hours a day. On Wednesdays, she taught an eight-year-old the fine art of baton twirling. She said, I ' ve been thinking of quitting for the past two years, but I can ' t give it up because it ' s so much of my life right now. VanWynsberghe plans to go to col- lege. If that college has a position open for a baton twirler, she said she will most likely try out, and with a shelf full of trophies in her bedroom, she defi- nitely has the talent.

These words spark memories for senior Ryan Trzaskowski, who re- members hearing them often from Brent Marty, assistant director of the Firefly Festival production Hello Dolly. Trzaskowski was one of only three Washington stu- dents who performed in the sum- mer musical. Trzaskowski tried out last spring at Century Center and was given the lead, Horace VanDergelder. Ryan described Horace as a grouch and a male chauvinist pig. Andy Budzinski, who also had a major role in the musical, said, Horace was more like Ryan than any character Ryan has ever played before. Richard Koons, the third Washington student involved in the production, said, Horace is Ryan. Nothing can be said about the show without mentioning the direc- tor, Mr. Ray Hinsey, whose tragic death shocked the community be- cause he was the backbone of the Firefly show, said Trzaskowski. This was not Trzaskowski ' s first show, but he felt it was the best performance he ' s ever done. His previous performances include Jesus Christ Superstar and Oklahoma, at Holy Family, and Guys and Dolls at Washington. I love doing musicals and 1 love singing, said Trzaskowski. Despite his interest and experience in act- ing, he has no plans to pursue dra- ma as a career. Crying for salvation, Ryan Trzaskowski sinks to the ground as he tells the audience, Sit down; you ' re rocking the boat. 120 Theatre Is Magic Panther pride rose to a sonic boom with the sale of the megaphones by Junior Achievement.

But Kristin Chle- bowski had other intentions when she scheduled her senior year, for she also signed up for weightlifting. Chlebowski chose this class so she could look better, feel better about herself, get in shape, and prepare for the Navy. She began working out at age 12 by doing aerobics and then added weightlifting to her train- ing. Chlebowski was one of only two girls in the weightlifting class, taught by Mr. John Sol- mos, but it didn ' t bother her. In fact, she said, It was a chal- lenge being in the class and keeping up. Junior Amy Shaw thought that it was good that Chlebowski was in weightlifting because it demonstrated that girls can do just as much as guys. Last fall Chlebowski could bench 90 pounds, but her goal is to bench 140. Chlebowski worked out five days a week to help reach this goal. She also did it for the fun of it. With a simple lift of the arms, Kristin Chlebowski strengthens herself physical- ly and mentally. 126 Preparing For Life Dancing adds to the excitement that fills the air in the senior section. There is more pres- sure and responsibility your senior year. It is a year to prepare for col- lege.  ) Doug Burnham Wierenga, Kipp Williams, David Williams, Richard Wilmes, Jeff Wolford, Amy Wood, Laurel Wozniak, Kenneth Young, Lisa Zepka, Edward Zielinski, Michael c Badders, Timothy lamera Sh Hayes, Leslie y Robinson, Angela Barnes, Carmelita Jennings, Kenton Scaife, Frederick Bucher, Troy Jozwiak, Joellen Smith, Sean Bueno, Alfredo Karn, John Tiscareno, Ivette Dawning, f elissa Kelley, Antiny Trotter, Katrina Dinger, Michelle Kennedy, Marie Trotter, Terrence Douglas, William Kruk, Randall Ward, Terrell Dozier, Shirley Kyle Jr., Eugene Wells, Tasha Flora, Melissa Lester, Sydney Winston, Michael Gonzales, Noe Manns, Carl Wright, Lajuana Gonzalez, Ana McCain, Kenneth Zdoniak, Amy Grajczyk, Dawn Neely, Betty Gunn Jeffrey Newman, Cathy Harris, Julie Oliver, Tommy Tubicsak-Zielinski 127 An Art Within Itself What ' s the best thing to do to improve mental discipline and self defense? Ac- cording to senior Robin Hill, it would be getting involved in tae kwon do. It is the best-known Korean karate, which is a generic term for a group of Asian fighting methods in which hand and foot blows are the principle techniques. I recommend this for all age groups from two to 72, said Hill. He ' s been actively involved in tae kwon do for 3V ' 2 years at Anderson ' s Tae Kwon Do. Besides practicing on his own twice a week, he teaches classes the rest of the week for two different age groups. One class is 10 and 11 -year-olds, while the other ranges from 16 to 30-year olds. Hill has gained not only a better sense of self-discipline, but he has also become a first-degree black belt earning about 10 trophies along the way. He competes in form competitions, where he shows the judges some of his special moves and unique forms, and sparring competitions, where he puts his skills to use against his opponent ' s. These competitions are held six times a year. Hill isn ' t paid in currency for his ef- forts. However, the experience and self- improvement is enough of a reward for him. He also learned tae kwon do simply to do things other people can ' t do. Hill doesn ' t plan on making a career of tae kwon do, but he feels his experiences with it will last a lifetime. Self-confidence, determination, and ambition are key points in performing stunts such as the one done by senior Robin Hill. Hill is a first-degree blaclt belt in tae kwon do.

Verstraete doesn ' t care for all the attention that goes along with winning. He said, A real artist will never brag about how good he is.

They won a spirit stick for the best hall decorations for football home- coming.

Is the mall the local hang- out or is it the place to shop? Most Panther freshmen agreed with Aaron Walczewski when he said, I go to the mall to shop. The mall is a place where you can pass time while you shop, said Tami Ort. Not everyone agrees with going to the mall to shop. Matt Wilfing ex- plained, 1 go to play video games. 1 hit Aladdin ' s Castle every time. Chris Plcncer added, 1 go to pick up ' chics.

(Cindi Holmes) These Panthers aren ' t afraid of the li- ons, tigers, and bears. as they make their journey down the yellow brick road for basketball homecoming. inese treshmen (Tonya Tidey. JaAnn McRoberts. Stacey Wesolowski) know that milk does the body good. and someday if they drink enough, they ' ll have their day to rule the school Like all freshmen. Joe Hill sometimes feels the need to play the blues 156 Going With The Flow Gets Easier Everyday ■r Leaving school doesn ' t mean stu- dents leave their work behind as Ann Marie Flis. Kenny Posie and Marci Horvath rush to catch the cheese. Doughnuts really are a delight as Jeff Cunningham wastes no time in con- suming his at the honor roll break- Going With The Flow Gets Easier Everyday I ' ve become more settled. I ' m no longer worried about the teachers ' grading systems. I un- derstand better what is expected of me and how to get this accom- plished. After about the first month or so, the school started to seem a lot smaller than the first day. A lot of people were getting lost in Sorry. Bob DeLee, shaking these pack- ages won ' t reveal a clue as to the sur- prise Santa Claus has brought you. the first week, and I couldn ' t un- derstand why. The classrooms are as easy to find as the res- trooms. All a person has to do is get into the flow of things (become organized), like a sports player learning the order of an every- day practice. — By Dewan Simon As important as a good breakfast is the importance of good grades. Carlos Gaines and Dewan Simon attend the honor roll breakfast. Freshmen Candids 157 57 I ' A Look Behind The Scenes view inside Washington is a look at the administra- tion and staff who make it work. At first glance, one sees a school much like any other; but taking a deeper look provides insight into the differences which set WHS apart from all the rest. Step inside the main of- fice and be greeted by sec- retary Mrs. Pat Czarnecki who keeps things under control and running smoothly. Peek behind the princi- pal ' s and assistant princi- pals ' doors and find con- cerned people willing to listen and to help every- one, whether it be prob- lems big or small. Observe guidance coun- selors talking to students about schedule conflicts, future plans, graduation re- quirements, or pressing private matters. Ask students about their teachers and classes, and then discover the sense of dedication, concern, and pride of the faculty and staff at Washington. Notice the efficiency of the custodial staff, cafete- ria staff, and aides from ev- ery department. This is what a view into the hallways and behind closed doors is all about. V 158 A Look Behind The Scenes Class scheduling and transcript reviews are parts of counselor Lowell Rarrick ' s job as he helps senior Zawandra Lee explore possibilities in the medical pro- fession. Even as the paper work piles up around him, Principal David Kaser still has the energy to hold down his desk. ■ . T .

Clubs, classes, groups and businesses buy ads because of students ' support. Jim Szulczyk, owner of Mayflower Auto Parts, has another reason for his pur- chase of a full-page ad. He bought an ad because, I used to work on the Memo- ry Lane staff, and I know the importance of support- ers. Many businesses emd or- ganizations continue to support the yearbook year after year. G.L. Perry, Don ' s Flower Shop, Bob ' s Furniture, Wygant Floral Shop, St. Joe Bank, Jos- ten ' s, St. Joe Funeral Home, Carlyle Nursing Home, Teachers Credit Union, Pantherettes, and class officers are a few. Each year the list of sup- porters grows longer, and the list of what can be add- ed to the yearbook also grows longer. No matter the size of the ad, all help finance the Memory Lane. 164 Supporters Keep Us In Business Panthers support area businesses; they support us.

With the help of our representative Jim Beck- ham and Sara Powers, the 8V2 X 10 80 glossy pages were designed by the staff. The style of print used was Souvenir with sizes: copy — 10 pt., captions — 8 pt., special copy — 12 pt. and headlines ranging from 24 pt. to 60 pt. The size of the folio tabs copy in the opening section, and the division pages was 12 pt.; the page numbers were 24 pt. Senior pictures, underclass pic- tures, sports pictures, and some candids were taken by McDonald ' s Studio. The laminated cover, an original design by Paul Verstraete, had a white background with other colors of black, blue and yellow. Artwork on the division pages was done by Verstraete. Sports facts and oddities were taken from the Guinness Book of World Records. 186 Going Out In Style Thank you for all your help in making this yearbook possible: Mrs. Diane Richardson — adviser Mr. David Kaser Mr. James Beckham Mrs. Sara Powers McDonald ' s Studio: Mr. Ray Patnaude Marilyn The South Bend Tribune Mr. Lowell Rarick WHS Custodial Staff Mrs. Pat Czarnecki Mrs. Jenny Thorton Mr. Steve Herczeg Mrs. Janet Buda Mrs. Susan Paulin Mr. Kenneth Kaniewski Lydia Richardson Mr. David Sexton Mr. Wayne Harsh Mrs. Constance Green Mr. Mike Foley Mrs. Mary Hintz Mrs. Leann Swintz Mrs. Louise Drapek Mr. Don Watson Mrs. Betty Stitt Mrs. Joanne Kelly Mrs. Julie Hook Andre Harris Lance Kvctko J.J.

Francis Findley Damon Pittman Laura Balasa Our staffers ' parents Mrs. Carolyn Peterson Seven crazy staffers gave up a little piece of their summer fun for one sweltering week in Au- gust to attend journalism camp at I.U. Bloomington. In the midst of blowing fans, sweating bodies, and ringing phones, a theme was born: A View Inside. The cover welcomed the viewer to step inside and discov- er what the world of Washington is all about. Senior staff mem- bers decided a true blue spirit and a heart of gold were essen- tial characteristics of the stu- dents at WHS, thus establishing the color scheme for the book. With cover and colors intact came the final question: What do we put inside? Filling this requirement was the worst of all. Hard work and plenty of head- aches were all part of the never- ending quest to complete dead- lines that were never met. Hurrying to the post-office, run- ning to McDonald ' s Studios, tracking down pictures and pages, and canceling vacations were sacrifices endured by ev- eryone. The cause of these frustra- tions and agonies was clear: It was all endured to give you, the reader, a better yearbook; one that inspires not only pride in the student body, but in the staff and sponsor who labored end- lessly to create something of ir- replaceable value that will be cherished and treasured for years to come. Achieving this was not easy but improvement was 100%. From captions to copy to details of designs on every page, noth- ing was too large or small to be overlooked. This is why A View Inside is a look at the de- termination and dedication be- hind a new staff with a new spon- sor who overcame the odds and every missed deadline to publish a view of a year that will never be forgotten. Behind the eyes that shed salty blue tears came the golden glow of pride that says, a job well done. Your editors, Kellie Howe, Mike Zielinski Closing 187 188 Rose Ji In Memory Of Rose I ' ll remember you in my heart I ' ll think of you in my dreams Don ' t worry, you ' ll be in my thoughts. I was there when you needed me You were there when I needed you All we can say is we love you and miss you When I needed to talk You were always there Sometimes all we did was go for a weilk. It ' s not fair that you ' re gone 1 promise you I ' ll be there So let ' s wait awhile; it won ' t be long. I used to think you weren ' t a fighter. But I was wrong Because actually you moved up higher. The sky is peaceful and blue Everyday I ' ll look into the sky And every time I ' ll think of Every time I ' ll see your face I ' ll stop to think you ' re In a peaceful place.
