If we didn't get you egging on the basketball team at a Friday night’s game, maybe we got that time you finally crossed the finish line first in that big race. You 'll see something or someone you loved or hated this year, and then some aspects of Washington—Lee you never even knew about. Enough said?

They were caught in the act of showing it, shouting it, and making it known. The pep rallies exploded in excitement, and the football stands had more fans than were seen in the past couple years. Always one of the biggest spirit boosters, homecoming and all that stuff that went with it was better than ever. Students could be found everywhere in togas, pajamas, and tacky tourist attire all through spirit week, and Thursday afternoon brought out a great number of spirited hall decorators. The junior's time and effort paid off in this endeavor. They won the hall decorating contest for their work in the main hall upstairs. The seniors took the Blue and Gray day contest for Friday's dress, and the sophomores had their first big win ever as their float Marshall Busters took that competition. Even with the defeat by Marshall, 1987 homecoming showed a true school-wide effort as three different classes took the main competitions. Even through schoolwork, everyday sports practices, and all sorts of other commitments, the Generals found time to let their spirit shine. After all, even Charlie Brown has his bad days, but he is always willing to try to give that football another kick. On top of tne Class of 88 s second place float ‘impeach the Statesmen.

Whether it was through clubs, sports, activities, or simply a contribution to class and school spirit, each person made up a unique part of W-L The student life section captures in pictures everything that made up the life of the students at W-L this year, and goes beyond the memories that can be captured in the introduction on this page. Student Life included all the memories captured at W-L for each student. It included the embarrassment of falling down the stairs and watching books and pencils go flying, but also the memories of that best friend who stopped and helped pick them up. A part of it was that first day. or first baseball game, or first date, or first final. Student Life was not only the paper due in third period or the math test in fourth, it was the teachers in those classes who made the year worthwhile or the new friends gained amidst all the pressure. It was all the little things, right down to that best friend that stayed up half the night to help with the end of a project due the next day. For the seniors, the student life of W-L will quickly become a special memory of places. events, and friends. For the underclassmen, it will continue as a way of life for at least one more year. However, the memories of student life in 1987and 1988 will always be MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY. 6 Student Life Divider Decked out for tacky tourist day.

The statesmen beat the Generals 35-0, but they did not beat the Homecoming fever. The winning float went to the Sophomore class with their theme Marshall Busters. The float was recreating the Marshmallow man from the 1984 smash hit “Ghostbusters.” The attendants for the Freshmen class were John ('arson. Ginger Harvey, Posing with the giant Mar hallm -llow.

Bessie Kolokou-sis, Crawford Palmer, and Simuel Young. The highest award of the night. King and Queen, went to Jackie Moore and Tania Velez. When asked how she felt about being Queen, Tania Velez said “I was excited and very surprised, being the Queen is a great honor.” All in all, the night was a great success despite the Generals’ loss. — Srbia Clark and Anna Nrlton K Student Lift The varsity football team comes together for a final pep talk before the start of the game against Marshall.

And It Was A Beautiful Night The 1987-1988 Homecoming Dance was a pictorial view of its theme, “Its Gonna Be A Beautiful Night.” The dance was sponsored by the Senior class and was held October 24, 1987. Spirits were high even after the loss to the Marshall Statesmen the night before. From 8:00pm until 11:30pm, Finale provided a variety of music everyone enjoyed. The dance was well organized by Tanya Bonham (who was also a senior homecoming attendant) and the great attendance was an obvious result. Homecoming Queen and King, Tania Velez and Jackie .Moore lead the traditional homecoming dance. Most of the couples attended the dance after a formal dinner, each attending a wide variety of restaurants ranging from American to Chinese cuisine. Everyone made it to the dance to “boogie down” from dusk till dawn. As the night drew to an end the Homecoming King(Jackie Moore) and Queen (Tania Velez) took part in the traditional homecoming dance. Following the king and queen were each set of class attendants and the rest of the crowd slowly melted in. As students and teachers alike danced to “Truly” by Lionel Richie, each realized it had been said to be a beautiful night ... and it was. — Suun AM rid if ._________________________ Student Life 1! It’s Spirit and the Generals Let it Shine “It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how ypu play the game. The General fans kept that old adage in mind as they let their spirit shine for Spirit Week. Though the Generals hadn’t had much of a winning streak during the football season, one could have never guessed from the actions of the fans. During Spirit Week, all of the students showed support for the team and each class portrayed their individual spirit. As senior Colby Schaefer said, “The entire school displayed W-J, spirit but the seniors undoubtedly showed the most enthusiasm.” As a result, the class of 88 dominated Blue and Gray Day. The juniors conquered hall decorations and, along with the freshmen, won the spirit stick by expressing their spirit in the homecoming pep rally. Whether it was waking up to l'ajama Day on Monday and ending with Blue and Gray Day on Friday, the Generals kept that spirit and let it shine all week long. So. seniors Tanya Itonham and la ri Wilson do still sleep with their teddy bears. Bullock junior: Binkor Mary l cr rit Wc W The On Wednesday, September 1(5, Washington, D.C. celebrated the Constitution’s 200th birthday on the steps of the Capitol. The day was sweltering with temperatures reaching the 90’s, but Mrs. Jeens and her AP Government classes were there for the whole ceremony. The most important figure of the day was President Ronald Reagan who spoke to the crowd and led them in the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. Also in attendance were several of the Supreme Court Justices and many congressmen, plus a few local celebrities. The theme for the event was “We the People!”. Mrs. Jeens, always interested in obtaining publicity for her students, had 20 of them dress in navy sweat- People! shirts each with a letter of “We the People!” placed on it. This idea paid off, because in the September 28th issue of Time magazine, “We the People!” were pictured with a caption of “Spelling it out in D.C.” When asked about the whole event, Mrs. Jeens said “1 was extremely proud, the kids worked very-hard to make it an exceptional bicentennial and I’ll never forget it. The Constitution ensures our freedom of speech, of the press, and our right to hold a public meeting. Without these rights, the celebration could never have taken place, but these rights show the Constitution will probably last for the next 200 years! — Anna Nrl� on Wc the People! Mrs. Jeens shows off her souvcnirfrom theevent We the People! , the famous Generals, spelling it out as they did for “Time” magazine. It was a long day, so Mrs. Jeens decided to take a quick break and relax. The grand finale, with a balloon launch in front of the Capitol, ended the day with a positive hope for the future. Bhavna Gautam shows off the prop from the show! Student Life 15 I Stand 5y Me Everyone had that true best friend or that small clique that was there through thick ‘n’ thin. These friends were there when that certain class got to be too much. Friends came together to make that small clique to hang out with at football games and party-hardy with on the weekends. Different people have different meanings of friends. “My friends are there to share memories with,” said junior Tammy Jones. Junior Leslie Zeitler said, “Your friends are there for you when the rest of the world does not seem to realize you are only human.” Senior Wendy Hiker put it in a different perspective and said, “Friends are there to borrow clothes from.” Sophomore Yvonne McNesse tied in friends with one word — “Survival!” For most students, friends were the one most important part of school and outside life. — Scbm Clark While workingon the senior float.

Andi comments on the funny way they met, “It was in the training room at W-L, Maurico was teasing me about working the weight scales, 1 never would have imagined we’d be going out.” W-L sweethearts were all around us. We saw them in the halls, walking each other to class hand in hand. They spent a lot of their extra time together after school, on weekends, holidays and over the summer vacation. They never seemed to lose interest in each other. Seniors Susan Aldridge and Ricky Mc(iolerick have been going together for over 3 years. Susan commented “I enjoy being with Ricky, we have the best time together; he’s always there when 1 need him.” — Kran Chalukoff Glen Garnett and Rhonda Rose take a break together during class 18 Student Life I Student Life 19 These are a few of my. . FA VORITE Imagine Garfield without his favorite teddy or your teacher without that first cup of coffee in their hand. Some people feel they cannot make it through the day without that object being near them. Favorite things range from certain jewelry to a special stuffed toy or even a pet. “My teddy bears are one of the closest things to my heart. said senior Irma Jones. Sophomore l.ori Dolby said, “My favorite things are my kitty cats, even though they feel a NVEEEEE bit superior to me. Freshman K. J. Terminella feeds his pet squirrel. THINGS — Often, favorite items are a source of security as well as something practical. The items might be a comfortable sweater or hat. Everyone has that special something that makes them feel at home, no matter where they are. Junior Rosanna Piper said, My absolute favorite item is a teddy bear with a gold necklace. It was given to me by someone special and I simply love it! No matter what, everyone has something special that makes each day go a little faster.

A Freshman gets stuck as she turns the corner and finds a mob of people in her way. 'Excuse me, Pardon Me. Will you get out of my way? Just how many people are there at W-L? When walking through the halls, most people would say too many. The abundance of students made it seem impossible to get to class on time without knocking down at least ten people on the way. The beginning of the year was the worst, especially at the stairways. It was almost impossible to climb the stairs as everyone tried to plow through. For each push given, a shove was returned. After a while, however, people remembered there was more than one stairwell, and conditions improved — slightly. It still took three minutes to get to lockers only three feet away. People refused to give a person space to get across the hallway, therefore creating a traffic jam. Students stopping to socialize with friends in the middle of the hall also created major traffic jams. We survived, though. By the end of the day, we may have had bruises all over our bodies, but we were still in one piece. Most of us anyway; except for those who ran into doors or tripped down the stairs and broke an ankle — those people know who they are! There was really no logical solution for us. Maybe the halls could have been widened, or we could have pretended we were on the I,.A. highways and shot classmates out of our way, but we needed a logical solution. The best answer was to live with it! Kristir IVririiutii Scot I Duncan wonders if using these stairs was so smart after all. 22 Student Life __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________i Student Life 23 On Paroie The bell rings. signalling the end of sixth period and the beginning of seventeen and one half hours of free time. Some of this time has to be taken up by sleep, but the rest is ours to use as we choose. We can do homework, play sports, work at jobs, or do other things when we aren’t in school or asleep. The first thing we do is get to our lockers. As little time as possible is spent there because better things await us. The main halls are crowded then with people going to the buses that carry them home. Those who don't ride the bus go to the Commons. Carpools meet, plans are made, students relax, and others ask for rides. From there, the groups split and go their separate ways. Some go to club meetings, some to sports and music practices. The rest of the Commoners pile into cars and get away from school as quickly as possible. There is a variety of clubs and sports that meet after school. From French to Black Awareness to Chess, the clubs are as diverse as they are numerous. Others are involved in the Band and Choir, both of which have after school practices on occasion. Many students play sports at school, and are involved every day in either practicing or playing in games. For many students, much of the time after school must be spent on homework. For them, it’s straight to the library or home to study. Others work at shops and stores in the area, so they go straight to where the money is. With the opening of Ballston Common and the building of stores in the area, many jobs become available to students. There are many other activities outside of school that take up our time, and we make sure to enjoy them as much as possible. Because before we know it. the 7:25 a.m. warning bell is going off, and our time is no longer our own. — IuvkI Clayton Kicky Velez and .Marcelo Rojas discuss rights to a Walkman.

Stores where WI. students work include Benetton. Foot l.ocker, and B. Dalton. After school, playing and attending sports is a favorite activity of students. Here, the Generals begin their domination of Falls Church. Once in the Commons, students decide what todo next. Many, like Marvin Venzor. and Willie Griffin just wait for something better to do. I Student Life 25 Around Town All dressed up and no where to go? That shouldn’t be a problem for any W-L students. Living only five minutes from the Nation’s Capital, there are plenty of places to go. people to see and things to do. If Washington doesn’t sound like fun. the suburbs always do. Although Georgetown isn’t as popular as it used to be, it isn’t hard to find fellow students there on any given Saturday or Saturday night. The abundance of stores, especially shops, restaurants, and the variety of people attracted many high school students. Everywhere one looked, punks, military men, high school students, college students, and “high school students pretending to be college students” (as Ilhami Tekmen says) could be found. For those bored with Georgetown, there were The Shops. The Old Post Office Pavillion, the Dupont Circle area, and the Mall. On a nice Sunday afternoon, the grassy Mall was a perfect place for a football game and picnic. There was also the Kennedy Center, the National Theater, Warner Theater, and plenty of other places to see hit shows. Closer to home, one could probably find at least one W-L female at Tysons Corner, Steven Corners Center and Ballston Common. Often guys could be found at any of the several parks nearby playing one kind of sports or another or sitting on front of the tube, watching a game. Together, students gather at someone’s house for a party. Next time a student complains about having nowhere to go, they need only think about where they haven’t been in this wonderful area. - Kri� tic IVriruv n One of the most popular malls around town.

Many students have part-time jobs both in and out of school. For example, the announcers have an important job within the school; students hold a variety of jobs. Some jobs students volunteer for and some they are paid a regular salary for. Students work in a variety of places and situations around Arlington. A popular place to work is Ballston Commons.

Monday and Tuesday were the worst but as soon as we hit Wednesday we knew that special time was on its way — The Weekend. Though it was only two days long, it meant a lifetime to us (even though it seemed that as soon as we reached it. it was already gone.) The weekend was something we thought about all week while sitting through the last ten minutes of Biology — the parties, the movies, and the relaxation! Even though all the pressure of schoolwork wasn’t gone, the immediate pressure was behind us. The weekend was our extended ‘lunch period’ of the week, and one of the few times when we could do anything we wanted. Whether that meant doing things we just knew we couldn’t do on a school night, or going home, setting our homework aside and sleeping till noon on Saturday morning, we all had the freedom to do as we wished. Some of us socialized the night away while others worked, babysat, and went to that favorite spot; some saw After a long week of school Susan Aid ridge enjoys her freedom of relaxation movies, went bowling, and some even studied! And those seniors won’t forget those long hours of essay writing and filling out college applications. Well, Monday, however, always drew closer quicker that we wanted, but at least we had the satisfaction of knowing we had had our two special days. That knowledge kept us going through the following week looking forward to another ‘lifetime’ away from school! — Susan AMrtdge .Mike Heber.

Student Life 31 The Matchmaker “The .Matchmaker was fantastic!”, said Mrs. (Jerrie Filpi, the director of this year’s fall production. The play ran November 13-14 and 20-21. The romantic comedy by Joseph Nestroy is about a sly merchant. Horace Vandergelder who is determined to stop the marriage of his niece. Esmergarde to the penniless artist. Ambrose Kemper. The young couple is helped by two older ladies: Ms. Van Huysen and Mrs. Levi. The play then sets in with mistaken identities and confusion between the sexes, including boys disguised as girls. The play ends a strange and unusual dance. The lead character, Horace Van-dergeldcr was played by senior Steve Barney. The young couple was played by Becky Varn and Nathan Harned.The two older ladies were played by Dianna Little and Kate Stevenson. Other cast members included: Thomas Parker, Jessica Schwarzkopf, Jeff IMitt. Josh Bickford. Steve McClemons, Anne Powell. Sarah Mannon, Dave Woods, Ben Harris. Mike Walser. and Sukho Song. The play’s student director was Nicole Poulin. Along with an excellent cast. The Matchmaker was supported by a great stage crew. Some of these people are: Jason Baker. Will Phaup. John Adams. Tomas Parker. Casey Covault, Leslie Zeitler, Eileen Villegas. Hector ()b-regon and many others made the play run more smoothly. Audience reaction was well received. “Each night's performance brought a larger audience,” said Mrs. Filpi. “The cast worked really hard to put on a good show and 1 think we reached our goal,” said senior Dianna Little.

A — Yes, I feel it’s a big deal — that is up until our graduation day. After three years of inferiority, believe me, you make it a big deal! You realize, “Hey! This is it, Make somethingofit!” It’scalled power, and you’ll feel the excitement of it in every day, in every activity, every event, everything said and everything done. Q — What has been your best year and why? A — Without a doubt, my best year was Junior year. Sure it had its share of bad times, but the good times outweighed the bad by a ton. By your third year you know what you want out of high school, and you’ve still got the drive to push for it. Looking back on junior year, its impossible for any senior to forget the success our class had. It was our year to peak and we didn’t hold back! Q — What was your most embarrassing moment at W-L? v o ; Q s A — The first pep rally I ever organized, the Varsity cheerleaders had spent so much time preparing, it was our first performance. Once the bell had rung, Mrs. Causey realized the tape for our new dance routine was gone! One cheerleader rushed home to get another tape as another one went to Ballston Commons. Meanwhile, I was having a nervous breakdown, but fortunately we got everything together and it all went fine. Q — What was your first impression of W-L? A — At first, it was scary, because the school is so big compared to my Jr. high. I knew a lot of upperclassmen who helped me find my way, unlike how everyone says they pick on you. The people were nice, but I expected it to be more like the movies, which it wasn’t, thank god! Q — What do you think your class needs to accomplish before graduation? A — Our class has a lot to look forward to during the next three years here. If we develop a friendship and learn to accept each other for what we are, and not what we don’t have, I think we will accomplish a lot. It seems too many people judge others for the wrong reason, and the class ends up drifting too far apart; we have three years to change that and hopefully we will — that would be an accomplishment in itself. 34 Student Life REVEALED Q — What was your most humorous event during your three years at W-L? A — It definitely had to have been German I. It was a joke. Between me, Nathan Brown, Terri McGovern, Troy Thompson, and Ricky Stocks, the whole class was out of control, but it was great. Q — What would you like to change about W-L? A — If I could 1 would change the fact that everything worth anything is being changed. For instance, the lunch privilege and seven period day; there are more important things to worry about than changing the school too much. Q — What was the most fun you’ve had at a party? A — Well, I guess I’d have to say my own but I don’t know if I should call it fun. Anyone who’s had a party would know its harder to throw one than go to one. It was just so much fun worrying about everyone else and myself at the same time. The best part was cleaning up! Q — What is the worst part about being a junior? A — It definitely has to be losing all your senior friends. Q — What do you most look forward to during your senior year? A — Dominating the rest of the school! Q— Is class spirit bigger now than in your Freshman year? I)o you feel it will mean more in later years? A — Yes, but I still think we need to get more activities that will help our class and its spirit. Q — Is W-L all that you expected it to be? Is It better or worse? A — No, but then again nothing ever is. I guess we all expect too much out of high school before we get there. But it’s not that bad. Q— What one thing are you most looking forward to at W-L? A — If we get the senior privilege of going out to lunch, we won’t have to worry about having to hide from Scott and Rick anymore. 5 03 c I- c s Student Life .‘{5 Kirsten Swearingen goes through the process. 3fi Student Life Students Give Every year the SCA puts together a blood drive. This year they had a lot of volunteers. In order to give blood, one must be 17 years old and weigh at least 110 pounds. This year Washington-Lee donated a total of 75 pints. Every donor was taken care of and got refreshments after. Dot Renfrow commented “1 was so scared at first but 1 went through with it and it wasn’t that bad.

Each year the Art-English-Music Seminar class voyages back to the days of England’s Queen Elizabeth I. The Renaissance Festival was a combination of music, drama, food and other entertainment. Once again the celebration was a huge success due to the student- teacher effort. Mrs. Martin, its sponsor, commented, “the A E M students are a special group this year. The festival was a huge success and it was due entirely to the kids’ efforts. They did it all. Chris Reade, who was the Court Juggler, said, “the festival came off well, it was a blast from the past.” — Julie Kane Preparing the second course, Chris Reade carves Members of the Washington-Lee orchest ra take the meat to be served as Cynthia Blackburn looks a turn at entertaining the A KM students, on.

Lei Tiie Music Play What wakes you up in the morning, psyches you up during pep rallies, melts your heart during assemblies, cheers you up when you’re down, and mellows you out when you’re nervous or stressed? What forces you to exercise. makes you dance, and keeps you partying at even the latest hours? And what kept you spirited during those losing football games, and rowdy during the winning basketball games, of course the most influential thing at W-L; the music! Students all had different opinions, and different tastes but it had the same effect on everyone. This year we had a variety of music tastes. They ranged from reggae to heavy metal and many attended concerts ranging from U-2 and Pink Floyd to The Cult and Rare Essence. Music tastes were influenced by such movies as Dirty Dancing and Good Morning Vietnam, and different types of music like 60’s, raps, country, and top 40 influenced the way some dressed and looked, talked and acted. In 1088 WPGC returned and those with other tastes tuned in toWCXR for classic rock. Even Michael Jackson made a comeback and new young artists such as Debbie Gibson and Tiffany made their debuts. Well, some called it Rock ’n Roll, some called it Top 40, some called it motown, whatever it was, it all meant the same to us and affected our high school years; it was a form of entertainment that we enjoyed and helped us escape from the Real World; we all call it music. — Sutan Aldrido Student Life 45 Career Center The Career Center in South Arlington provides students with an extension of the curriculum offered at W-L.

Shout it. show it, get caught in the act... they did it. Not stuck behind the piles of college applications or SAT sign up sheets all the time, the seniors took full advantage of being the only class allowed out to lunch (legally, anyway) and the only class allowed to miss tests for those never-ending senior homerooms. They were the only class messing up each other's wallets bypassing out those true wallet-size senior pictures, and the only class that could successfully monopolize all of their counselor's time. Nothing can quite compare to that feeling of really being seniors. Knowing that this prom and this graduation will be for the Class of '88. Knowing that this is it, and the senior class is through — with style, with spirit, and with impact — in a manner that is just a little bit MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY. — Mini Biker IX Seniors Divider Showing their true senior maturity.

One could describe it as the light at the end of the tunnel or the finale of a Ion : boring play. Senior year had finally come! Many experiences that happened during senior year were very memorable, while others were more forgettable. To begin the year, seniors found out the little blue cards meant the world; during lunch, anyway. Almost every senior decided to go to at least one dance before they left W-L: The Homecoming Dance. Motel get-togethers were the in-thing during football season. During winter, basketball games were the place to go to see everyone, and face the i n v i t a b 1 e question, “What’s going on tonight?” Unfortunately, from late November to late January College Panic settled in and things began to slow down. The mad rush to send applications and transcripts nearly drove every senior mad. Because seniors were overwhelmed with homework, snow dances were done to elicit precipitation. For the rituals to be successful, it had to snow at least 6 inches, and cause the school to close for a day. Spring brought rain, but with it came warmer weather and college acceptance or rejection letters. April 1st was the magic date for some. It was the end of the world for some seniors, and the beginning of a new one for others. Once into a college, seniors just had to make cameo appearances in some classes to graduate. The lucky seniors didn’t need to cross their fingers to be exempt from finals. The begging and pleading didn’t always help, but browning sure did. Soon, slowly, but surely graduation day came closer. What they had been waiting for the last twelve years finally came to an abrupt and anticipated end in June. Whatever happened at W-L, good or bad, the memories will always last a lifetime. Now that they were finished with high school, the class of '88 moved on to bigger and better things. Judging from their luck at W-L. their futures seem promising. „ 0 - l� nji numkonr Captured in a rare moment, Teddy Hooban has no comments about the English assignment.

These societies had been formed by small groups of friends, but were mixed and matched so everyone knew everyone. The groups were seen together in the halls, in the Commons, at football games, at lunch and were always together on weekends. This year’s seniors were a powerhouse of togetherness. Everybody knew everybody and we all had a good time together, especially at parties. The parties gave seniors the opportunity to let off steam and see their friends. Parties were not the only way seniors got together. Though the guys and girls had their own sports, both were active in them. A favorite place for seniors on Friday night was football games, where everyone cheered on the team. (Maybe on to victory, but we still cheered for every great play.)

Senior Govern Meant. . . Ever since small mammals began to roam amongst the dinosaurs, the strong ruled the weak. It was the rule of the land. Humans soon evolved, but. unfortunately for the weak ones, the strong still ruled the weak. It was anarchy until the feeble and wise cavemen decided to use their intellect. Along with the regular leaders, an advisory committee was appointed to help the leaders with their work. Eons later, the idea was reborn. The senior class officers decided to run the senior class with the help of a class council. Homecoming was a great success thanks to Tonya Bonham.” SCA Senator Hen Harris remembered. The senior officers formed small committees to tackle the numerous tasks that hail to la- done for Homecoming ’87. Some seniors painted signs while others worked on the float.

Seniors “To me, being a senior is being on top of the hill.” — Pablo Cantillana Top Notch The mountain climber finally planted bin last step to reach the top of the mountain. The sensations of fulfillment and satisfaction swept through his senses as he perched himself on top of the world. Many seniors felt the same way as the year drew to a close- because being a senior was not unlike being the king of the mountain. Yes. even though their year to shine had finally come, some seniors could not believe it. “I can't believe we’re seniors already.” thought Harlan Nunn. Superfluous.’' great.'' and not all it's cracked up to be were how some seniors described their last year in high school. Maybe not everyone agreed on what the senior year really meant in one's life, but how can they forget the fun times they had? It was the year that they needed to make count. They had to cash in all of their chips and go for it. And to the best of their abilities, they went for it. With being a senior, there came responsibilities and privileges. Open lunch was finally legal, and seniors no longer hail to sweat it out when they left campus for lunch. Lockers in the commons were always a plus, especially when they got to school 10 minutes late. However, being a senior wasn't always fun and games or a terminal case of senioritis. College applications, SAT’s, and Achievement Tests were always looming in the background. How did they find time to participate in all of those senior activities and still maintain their composures to finish the year? Even though the mountain climber was on top of the world for a while, he couldn’t stay there forever. Too bad the seniors couldn’t either, but they made the best of their time on top of the world. — (in Sanamkonr Hrushing Off Oscar Garcia carries a can of paint brushes to help with the painting of the pressbox.

Seniors Passing Lunch Many people thought that mass exoduses are only seen after catastrophic floods, fires, or volcanic eruptions ami the like. Actually. 180 days out of the year, around lunchtime, seniors ventured off campus to sample the foods of the finer restaurants of the Washington Metropolitan area. “When I goout to lunch. I usually do my calculus homework or maybe even eat.” commented Hutch i'oplin. Dave Woods said. The trick is to go where everybody else isn't. It makes getting food a lot easier.” The quest for the ever popular 99 cent burger often drew large groups of seniors to the Roy Roger's on l.ee Highway, but McDonald's was always the sure fire place to bump into someone from school. When members of a group had different tastes. Ballston Common was the place to eat because of its diverse selection of foods. “I didn't really have enough time to really enjoy my food.” thought Ton D'Ambrosio. Some seniors, however, thought that by being able to goout for lunch gave them a little time to relax and kick back before they got on with the rest of the day. To Christina Wolfe, eating out was an escape from the underclassmen! Though going off campus for lunch might have been fun. it did have its drawbacks. Chuck Gluck remembered. I often tried to see how fast I could get back to school before the bell rang. 1th and oth period teachers too many a time marked that notorious “T in the grade book for many seniors. Being able to leave W-L for lunch was one of the things that made a senior’s year more fun and memorable. and as Tyler Tow nsend put it. lunch passes were bad pictures for a good cause.

Luckily, that was the way it was at YV-L. Some teachers were harsh, though, especially when they embarrassed a student in front of the class. Everybody knows that school isn't the place to catch up on a few missed Z's, but how could seniors have resisted? After staying up half the night to write a paper, to study, to watch David I.cttcrman. or for no particular reason at all. they had to sleep when they could. Take the screening of The Rutherford Atom in physics, for instance. Now there was a 45 minute movie on an interesting Konked Out. As the lecture goes on.

Sometimes, when the films were intriguing, one might have regained consciousness after everyone had left after the bell had rung. How about that lecture on the Anglo-Saxons in English? Somehow, no matter how hard the class tried, their eyelids got heavier and heavier, until they eventually shut. Of course, the sleep was good. The worst part of sleeping in class were the odd patterns formed on one's face by one's sweater. Even though one missed a lot of information when one slept in class, students often managed to catch up on the phone later that night. After all.

The constant input of information and brain work needed often caused pulsating headaches, but. of course, there were remedies. Not for the headache, but something to break the banal classroom atmosphere. 1 remember when we were watching a film in chemistry, and I was sitting at one of those lab tables.

One time in biology, we were doing this lab with crayfish. We got a little bored and started to throw them across the room with rulers. We even made them fight! Acquisition of the bathroom pass, somehow, always gave seniors a little break in the class. Sure, they didn't always go to the closest bathroom, but how else were they supposed to see their friends on the other side of school? Of course, the ultimate break in their classes were the substitutes. How about fire drills? These safety exercises gave everybody a chance to go outside and talk with their friends while wondering if their books were going to catch on fire. But they served the purposes of the administrators and the students, and gave everyone a little break in the day. Unluckily, like the beaver, eventually the seniors had to go back to work. However, by having fun while they worked made the classes seem shorter and made the 1 WO days of school more bearable and fun.

Javier Galvez Ramiro Galvez Another One Bites Another one bites the dust was the theme for the Class of 1988 powderpuff team who again dominated football competition. The juniors were crushed for the second time by the seniors by a score of 21 — 0. The coaches again were Kicky McGolerick. Marvin Venzor, and Clay Zimmer. Ricky McGolerick commented, “everyone put in a lot of effort and I’m glad of the results.” The senior offense was led by quarterback Tania Valez who was behind a terrific line formed by determined seniors. The running backs were Susan Aldridge and Bessie Kolokou-sis. and wide receiver Colby Schaefer led the passing game. Defense was led by captain Marta Young who had under her a group of seniors who kept the juniors scoreless. The game started off with a bang with a score by Susan Aldridge in the first three minutes of the game. The second score was by Kea Orfanos who. after a reverse with Colby Schaefer, ran for 60+ yards. The third score was by Colby Schaefer. One extra point was scored by Colby Schaefer, the second by Tania Valez. and the The Dust third was by Michelle Valenzuela. All-in-all the victory was a total team effort. The three coaches put a lot of time and effort into developing plays for a team consisting of eight players on offense and defense (reduced from 11 last year). The team, itself, put forth their time and effort and energy. Spending about 18 hours of practice in six days was a lot. but everybody came together to defeat the juniors 21 — 0. - Ilawn TVrrainclU Tania Valez.

Ilildi Given David Gleaves Press Release Traditionally, during the summer. one of a senior’s responsibilities was PAINTING the press-box. There were four steps in making the “perfect press box: STEP 1: Picking a design; this was done In-fore the end of school. STEP 2; Making the stencil; this was clone in July by making letters on paper to transfer onto pressbox. STEP 2: Transfering design to pressbox STEP 4; PAINTING Many people- were important and spent some of their precious time at the- pressbox getting paint all over shoes, clothes, and body. Three guys spent a hit of time with the pressbox. They were Martin Castillo. Hen Pederson, and Chris Weaver. These three worked diligently on the pressbox in every aspect and led the effort by the seniors. All-in-all the pressbox turned out to Ik- a success, even though there was some vandalism. Because of organizational difficulties. things took a while to get going. However, the final result was worth waiting for. Dawn Tcrmincllst During the year. Hen Pederson.

The class offered the opportunity to study concurrent developments in visual art. music, and literature from ancient to modern time. This year AEM made field trips to many interesting places. During the year, AEM went to the National Cathedral, to see the Madrigals; Arthur B. Sachler; Dumbarton Oaks, a plantation in Georgetown with a museum; and Washington Projects for the Arts, where there was an exhibit called “War and Remembrance”. Mark llanneman felt that. “AEM’s was an enjoyable experience because of all the information that we received. We also didn’t have to do anything constructive on Friday’s!” As one can see, all these field trips gave these seniors the opportunity to learn and gain experience in visual arts, music, and literature. — Dawn Tcrminclla Jocelyn Gullet! wonders during the week what fieldtrip AEM will take this week.

Seniors seemed to be in control of everything! All three school publications were under the direction of student editors. They were: Sarah Man non (Crossed Sabres). Natalie Heins (Penman). and Maria Baker (Blue and Gray). Students do not realize the amount of time, planning, and hard work that goes into the production of a strong literary publication. Sarah Mannon. Co-Editor-in-Chief of Crossed Sabres started out as a reporter in her junior year as well as Assistant Opinion Editor. Her responsibilities this year include assigning and editing stories, instructing students on newspaper guidelines and overseeing layout work. When asked about being an editor. Sarah said Being Co- Blue ;� n«l Gray Editor .Maria Baker before a deadline. Natalie Meins seems relieved after selling Penman popcorn. Editor-in-Chief is a tough position. First of all. you have a higher position over your peers and your main responsibility is to make sure the stories are well-written, make sense, and are newsworthy. I have learned a lot from being an editor. It’s a lot of work and pressure but in the end when the final product is out. it is definitely worth it!” Natalie Heins, is this year’s Editor-in-Chief of W-L’s literary magazine. Penman. She contributed stories as a junior and explains her surprise at being named in such a high posit ion. Last year when Mr. Harocopos was conducting interviews for Penman staff, all that I really wanted to be was Fiction Editor. After what seemed like months. I was called in and told that I was to be the Editor-in-Chief. It was a total surprise! I've really come to love the job. The best part is that I am able to read works written by students from all over Washington-Lee.” Maria Baker is the Editor of tin 1987-1988 W-L Blue and Gray Yearbook. She has held a position on the yearbook for the past three years as well. She is responsible for almost all aspects of the Yearbook from copy to ads to layouts. She ehoses the theme as well as deciding on her staff and the sections they will work on. “As far as I’m concerned Maria Baker is the editor of editors! She works hard, is patient, and requires more from herself than from anyone else. Maria never gives up and is still able to maintain a sense of humor.” Martha Axiotis. Yearbook Sponsor. The afore — mentioned patience and determination seem to be intrinsic characteristics of all editors. They mold the way we look at and remember W-L. As it seems from this year’s publications, these three seniors have done a very good job!

W-1, was very fortunate to have 12 seniors among the members of its Marching Band. This group of dedicated individuals has proven that seniors epitomize organization, maturity, dedication, and school spirit; all qualities that hand requires.

SAT's, jobs outside of school Madrigals, sports, and clubs. As a result, they were forced to give up many of the social activities that make the senior year a memorable one. During the football season, the Marching Band practiced every day after school for a least two hours and for two hours on Wednesday evenings. Then, after the football season ended, the Marching Band divided into the Jazz Band. Concert Band, ami Pep Band to play Seniors Lamarr Jones. Simuel Young, and Donald Pelham wait patiently for hand practice to start. at basketball games. At the be-ginningof the third quarter, the Marching Band came together again to prepare for the competition season. “Band, may take up a lot of time, but the effort is definitely worth the result!” said senior Sebia Clark. The side ofthe band that most students see is the difference that they make for the W-L students at games and assemblies. They put forth a catching enthusiasm that makes any event interesting! -- Wrndy Rikcr Adrienne Hammond is in a Very good mood! Seniors - Weekends Were Made For . . . What were weekends made for? Carol I’anaro said that weekends were made for “a change in the routine because if we did not have that weekend then school would have been involuntary. like breathing. There was always something to do every season of the year. During the fall, there were Friday night football games and in the winter there were basketball games. After the games there was always Pizza Hut or McDonalds. On Saturday nights there was usually a party or the movies where seniors could go. A favorite movie theater was NTI STATE where anyone could go On their weekend. Gary Fisher and David Hargrove play hacky-sack with their friend. for 99c. Chris Reade. a senior who worked there, said that he always saw people from W-L. It was a great way to see friends on the weekends. Of course, during a weekend, especially Saturday's, there was always a job to go to. These jobs ranged from working at gas stations to working at the Limited or Benetton. The tasks of these jobs included pumping gas, punching numbers into a machine, filing books away, doing stock work and selling cards and clothes. Sundays were made for, you guessed it. HOMEWORK! Aysha Henahdi said that Sundays were made for lying around Mark llanneman shows the effects of a BAD weekend. until Sunday night at 11:30 when you had to do government homework for Mrs. Jeens. Weekends were made for alot of things. Tanya Brillhart said that weekends were made for “having fun going out with your friends and family.” Steve White. Ricky Flores and Jose Cortez all commented that weekends were made for parties. Others, like Charlene Hen-drikson. Ramona Wallace and Michelle Valenzuela, said that weekends were made for having fun and enjoying life and relaxing and studying and working. Jackie Moore said that weekends are made for love. — I awn Tcrmint-lla As the Varsity Cheerleaders warm up. the Varsity Football team waits to challenge the Langley Saxons.

White — Out! 3 bottles: That’s the approximate amount of White-Out it takes to write (and rewrite!) a decent college application essay. “Please provide any personal information that you feel would help in interpreting your academic record or understanding you as an individual.” It was hard to believe that one sentence of 21 words could cause a senior so much anxiety. Hut somehow, it did. It was the same feeling one got upon opening the mailbox and finding an envelope marked “SAT Scores Enclosed” It wasn’t much fun and neither were college applications. Starting those essays was like getting all four of your wisdom teeth pulled on the day before Homecoming. The familiar “college application dread” that most seniors suffered from was characterized by sweaty palms, a pounding head, and a lump forming in the pit of the stomach. Applications and essays were both an impossible task considering that the people that read them had the power to decide one’s future. The seniors were glad to leave college essays behind with the Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen. After all, this was the life of a senior. The magic words to remember were,“Go ahead! Pick up that pen. keep your White-Out handy, and start writing! What have you got to lose?” Wrndy Kikrr Senior Tanya Bonham concentrates on filling out one of her college applications.

From is what all the candy sales, car washes and other various fund raisers are for. Each class works hard all four years to have a memorable prom, and this year's prom, to say the least, should Ik-. But this prom would not have been if it weren't for Susan Aldrige, prom chairman. Although not many people were aware of her responsibilities. Susan was responsible for countless details. She had to begin in the summer to find the “perfect place , review bands, pick out a theme, among other things. But without the attention given to these details, prom could be a disaster. Susan Aldridge commented. I enjoy this job, and 1 want to do this for our class. I took a lot of time to make sure this would Ik- a great prom, and if everything goes as planned, it should be. I want everyone to have a spectacular evening. Fashion is also a big factor for prom: who is wearing what is among the familiar topics of the evening. In the previous years, the traditional long, ball-gown dresses have been the “in style.” But this year the shorter, mini-skirts. mushroom look has come about. Dresses with bright, flashy colors along with black velvet should be among the common dresses to be seen at prom. Although where prom is held, what people wear, and all the hard work put into it are common concern about prom, the people are what make prom what it is. And that is why this year's prom should be the best prom in W-I. history. The work this class has put into all four years and their sense of togetherness during it should grant them a SPE(’TAClrEAR EVENING.

A Winning Tradition This year's Senior Float was “Impeach The Statesmen. It placed second to the Sophomore float “Mash Marshall. The Senior float, followed the tradition set by all of the other floats produced by the class of 88 — the winning tradition. In all their four years in high school homecoming, their floats have never placed lower than second. The success of all four floats was due to hard work and dedication and this year was no different. The theme itself was original and creative, and this class used it well. The float committee. a select group of seniors, worked hard every day on the many different parts of the float and putting much time and care into their work. They began work on the float one month before homecoming and spent the final hours before the homecoming game working on a lot of intricate details. The float consisted of a mock courtroom with judge. Mark Seniors Mary Iteth Brantley. Ben IVderson. Wendy Biker and Jocelyn (iullett show the class of '88’s unstoppable spirit while showing of their awesome float. Ilanneman, a statesmen and a jury of W-L fans. “It was the largest and most outstanding of all the floats, commented Tania Velez. Although many seniors and other students had expected this float to win, the senior class is proud of the dedication, time, and most important, the result of this float. It wasn’t •just a float' to us. We all put our heart and soul into a good theme and carried it out in the best way we could. N'o only did we represent our class spirit, but our dedication in making every aspect of our last year the best , felt Susan Aldridge. Another senior who helped with the float, Maria Baker, commented. I think our theme was really exceptional and I was disappointed that we didn’t win-----I thought we deserved it. But it was so much fun working on it. I am glad 1 • iwtl f lt t lltlo .Maria Baker.

Mark Traynham . Got the Slumpies? ? There is one phase in high school that almost every every senior goes through where he she feels like doing no work at all. It comes at a time when college applications are finished and first semester is over, it is known as SE-NIOR SLUMP! This “slump” hit some seniors earlier than others, and even missed a few. Hut. overall, this year’s senior class showed their slump very well. A few commented on their situation: “Senior Slump began just before Thanksgiving and lasted a good deal until March. There were a lot of pressures that seemed to nave been thrown upon us. I mean with the regular load of school work, college applications and essays, it can get to be a bit much at I r. Wcinhardt’s 5th period A.P. Biology- class shows that they know the meaning of senior slump or could they be taking one of lus tests????? times.” — Tania Velez “ The slump actually started the first day we entered this school. It has just grown to its full capacity by the time we finally reached the point to abandon this academy of knowledge. By this time our nerves have taken over to make everything worse than it actually is.” — Butch Poplin “Senior slump began in the beginning of October for me. Even though I had only been through about a month of school I was getting a bit bored of work, friends and. some teachers. It hit me hard because I missed deadlines and certain dates when assignments had to be turned in. But overall. I think I have overcome it and the Senior Slump has hit me for the last time.” — Kayle Graves “My senior slump hit me the minute I walked in toW-L. This year went pretty good, but there were those days that I couldn’t wait for graduation.” — Fran Chalukoff.

Mrs. Jeens spearheaded this topic by having the Registrar of Arlington County come to government classes to make them aware of the responsibilities involved with voting. The government classes did many things throughout the week to make students aware of registration on January 15, 19XX. One thing Mrs. Jeens planned to do was to make students official registrars of Arlington County. The group consisted of in government students who went to a training session on Wednesday to the courthouse, and on Friday, these Assistant Registrars registered eligible students for primaries and for the presidential election in November, 1DXX. All-in-all the registering of eligible voters for the elections of March and November turned out well. Many students started to understand the voting process and had a greater awareness of how important they were when they voted.

Seniors What to do, What to do?! Senior pranks, what a chore! Many seniors were involved in pranks, but who knows who they were? Of course, there was the traditional toilet-papering: of a friend’s house, but this year’s seniors were out for the unusual. This meant cutting: out the “real estate broker” bit for selling: your friends house and bringing in the “unique pranks. One unique prank was moving a friend’s car to get Trees were a popular choice for pranks. Looks like a Yorktown student. him confused. This gave the culprits laughs but did not give many laughs for the victim. Along with the uniqueness, came a decrease in the senior pranks. Since there was a decrease, the pranks had to be done with tact and wit. Every senior had pranks done to him or performed pranks on their cIose friends. Seniors thought of many things to do, but sometimes did not accomplish these unique feats because of alert parents or the chance of getting caught. —Ilawii Ta-rminrlla The freshman commons were a butt for senior pranks.

Seniors had some time to socialize before they went to practice. Time Out 1:59 PM, sleepy eyes quickly brightened. Heart rates began to increase. Mental states rapidly returned to conscious levels. Books were put in order. Everyone took their mark. Brrrrrring!! The classrooms were soon empty. After school was out, what was there to do? Well, seniors had many options. When asked. “What are you doing after school today. many seniors often replied by saying. I have to work.” By working a part-time job, many seniors were able to finance their weekend ac- tivities. Other seniors took advantage of the close proximity of Ballston Common, and went shopping after school. The Common was a good place to meet friends. Shopping after school allowed some seniors to relax before tackling their homework. Some seniors stayed after school to participate in athletics, clubs, or conversation. Activities often demanded an unthinkable 12 hours at school due to sports practices and night games or club meetings and events. Don’t forget the all important fun, including attending all the basketball games on school nights as well as weekends, and even some Friday football games. No matter how tired or worn out they were, seniors had to eventually do their homework, at least for one semester! One thing is for sure not all after school activities were school related, but they were fun, most of the time, anyway. —(in, SiruMkunr Memories that lay beneath a General's Sky We are a class with tradition and memories that whisper through the halls. We all remember the dances and the pep rallies and the Friday night football games with wild cheering. We recall the parties, the weekend nights, those special firsts, and most of all our countless groups of friends. We remember the togetherness we all acquired over the four years at W-L. Our last year has gone by and all the things that were once so new we have experienced over and over again. We each learn to face and even overcome the problcms that have arisen throughout high school. We made it through the good times, too, always awaiting another. Some of us will face our first year of work in the real world, some of us a new beginning in college, but for now just another sunset. No matter where we see our next sunrise, we won’t forget the way we were and the memories that lay beneath a General’s sky. Suion AMrwIirr 94 Seniors ' TROY ROBERT THOMPSON Troy Robert Thompson was truly a great person. Troy had a heart bigger than the world and he meant a great deal to the people who knew him. especially our senior class. Troy contributed in a wide variety of activities in this school; for instance, he was treasurer for the class of 1988, he was an extremely spirited and dedicated varsity football player for two straight seasons, and most of all, he was always our friend. As a friend, Troy was someone very special. He was always there with a shoulder to lean on and a heart to share. He was a person many of us admired. Troy was very sociable and he had a great sense of humor and personality. He was involved in school as well as community activities, always showing his care and concern for others. He was unique in his own special way, and he made us laugh with his crazy antics, as well as cry when he was hurt. The many memories we all hold of Troy will remain deep in our hearts . .. forever. This senior section is dedicated in memory of our friend and classmate, Troy Robert Thompson, 1969-1987 Suun AMrulirr b Juniors It was the one year between being a true underclassman and a true senior, the year that most students discovered PSATS and sats, the year in which they discover what homework really is, the year when students were just discovering college through witnessing a major senior class panic... junior year really was, for the class of '89, a turning point. It wasn't just being closer to graduation than their first day at W-L that made a difference. They won their first homecoming contests ever as they took the spirit cheer and the hall decorating. They discovered AP English, Civ. Chemistry, American history, and many other dubious delights. They discovered spending a whole day without sweating to death in gym class. They discovered that weekend life does improve after the driver’s license. And they waited, and waited, and waited for the ultimate goal of being seniors. The class of '89 really turned around, and looked around, and made a change and a difference. And the improvement was MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY! - Marta Baker 96 Juniors Divider The juniors unite to win the homecoming hall decorating contest by giving a new look to the mam hallway upstairs K The boys' side of the gym explodes in enthusiasm as the juniors let off balloons and shout it out during their turn at the homecoming spirit cheer Andy Strasser looks beyond the pressure of junior year and lets a smile shine through.

The junior class officers were: president — Leslie Zeitler. vice-president — Mark Churchill, secretary — Meredith Busby, treasurer — Susan ('lark, school board representative — Tara Selario. senators — Lorena Mena. Oscar Obando. and Kate Stevenson. President Leslie Zeitler said. “I think we’re working together unexpectedly well.” Senator Lorena Mena also added, “the fact that we’re all good friends makes it easier for us to get along.’’ Fortunately, after many different experiences with leadership, the junior class has been successful and rewarding. The junior class’s sponsor is Mrs. Nester. Some of the junior activities that took place this year were flower sales, candy sales, Christmas dance, Valentine masquerade dance and car washes. The class of’89 really keyed up as their prom got closer. President Leslie Zeitler said, it’s a slow process but we’re getting there.” Julie Knnff and Krulie 1‘rrirux.n President Leslie Zeitler is thrilled about the new ideas for the junior class.

Not only were juniors dressed up in school colors but many junior faces were decorated with face paint that said 89. The spirit contest was definitely dominated by the juniors this year. During the pep rally on Friday, juniors triumphantly voiced their spirit along with the freshmen by winning the spirit stick. The class of’89 also put alot of hard work into their hall decorating, and their dedication paid off! Class of ’89 had won the hall decorating contest. Junior senator Kate Stevenson, who was in charge, said “by 8 o’clock, we’re about to give up but a bunch of us pulled through.

What did they contribute to Homecoming events?” A number of juniors were active players on the varsity football team. They also worked hard on their float and many more juniors were seen at the homecoming dance this year. The theme of the junior float was “Strip the Statesmen.” Juniors Tara Selario and Jina Wright dressed up as Robert E. Lee and George Washington. They were “stripping” two Marshall Statesmen. The junior float lacked enough work and props to defeat the sophomores and seniors. Instead, they received third place in the float contest. Vice president Mark Churchill, who was in charge of the float, said, “there wasn’t enough pre-planning and there was a lack of organization on my part.” Despite the intimidating Marshall Statesmen, the football team showed spirit and confidence. Juniors were a major part of that football team. Oscar Obando. a junior on the team said, “even though Marshall was a better team, we never gave up throughout the game.” The Junior class was much more a part of the homecoming dance than they were last year. The fact that a majority of juniors could finally drive was one reason more juniors were seen at the dance. Many junior girls showed their confidence by asking the guys to homecoming. — Jut ' Kant and Knilir IVrguton The class of ’89 show their spirit and unity during the homecoming pep rally.

Each time a junior attempted to sneak out for lunch, he came closer to losing the best privilege of being a senior. After the first week of school, most juniors gave up trying, and stayed in for lunch. Tolerating the cafeteria’s food for one more year was a lot better than risking the chance of having to eat it as a senior, also. When a junior was caught trying to sneak off campus, he was issued a warning the first time, In- School Suspension the Second. After getting caught a third time, his privilege was taken away for when he was a senior. Most of the juniors gave up after the first warning. Some juniors, though, succeeded time after time, at sneaking off, and enjoyed McDonald’s for lunch. The question most juniors faced was whether Mickey D’s food was worth the risk. — Julie K� nir and Kmt«e PerrUMin A group of juniors cat lunch in the cafeteria.

Jobs, sleep, and most of all, fun. After a Ion week of getting up at six in the morning, and staying up until midnight doing homework, Saturdays and Sundays were “like a release from prison,” as Liz Kelly put it. For Juniors, Friday nights were no longer spent at home watching the tube, or playing Putt-Putt and being home by ten, but instead were enjoyed at football games and REAL parties. As curfews extended, social lives improved. Juniors were seen all over the area into late hours of the night, getting the most out of their Friday night. Saturdays were spent sleeping or working. Part-time jobs became neces- sary to earn that extra spending money nobody seemed to have. After work, though, they were out on the town again enjoying the last night of freedom. Weekends were almost a complete release of all responsibilities that came from school. Juniors had more than 48 hours to do things T11EY wanted to do, not what their TEACHERS wanted them to do. But this only lasted until 11 p.m. Sunday night, when they finally sat down to do homework due the next morning. The worst things we had to worry about were parents, and which party we wanted to go to first. — Julir Kane arvd Krutie IVrirmon 106 Juniors Sarah Meacham is relieved that the weekend is finally here.

Dean Thompson tells us that one of the advantages of being a junior is that there’s no more gym. Being a Junior is Not being a Freshman — Gillian Adams Is that we’re almost Seniors” — Jessica Bartee “Being respected by underclassmen” — Tammy C'aughlin It’s hard work but it’s a lot of fun” — Jenni Cooper “Like wearing1 an SO pound backpack with fishing line shoulder straps” — Allen Thornburgh Being a Junior is having five hours of homework a night and four tests in one day. Getting up at seven on a Saturday morning is another indication. There’s also Hemmingway, Hawthorn and the beloved research paper that was re- quired to pass llth grade Knglish. Being a Junior has its advantages though, such as being considered an upperclassman, (especially by Freshmen). And, best of all. there was no more gym. There was also that part time job to make a little extra money for weekends. So all in all. the juniors had to admit that it was a fun year despite the pressures and everyone’s warnings that junior year is the hardest”. The juniors still managed to have a great time.

That sounds so stranger The sophomores were the victims of endless jokes freshman year as the first class to have a graduating year in the decade of the '90's. However, even the little guys made a difference. Maybe they did have to take minimal competency tests ( Which does the label say not to do? ) and maybe they were still taking gym ( is 40 minutes a passing time on the mile and a half? ), but they found time to do a lot more. Out of a group that isn't going to graduate until the next decade emerged some leaders, some spirit, and yes, even a little character. Their biggest victory may have come from a winning float called Marshall Busters that took first place. Their biggest disappointments may have been learning to drive and finding out that the stories about the lack of parking places in the student lot weren't fiction, or finding out in the end-of-the-year assembly that no one can hear what's going on from the junior bleachers, either. More likely, however, there were some special moments that were a lot more meaningful than those for each student. They were the memories of sophomore year that won't be found in the 1988 yearbook because they were just a little bit MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY. — Min i Biker 110 Sophomores Divider A sophomore group ofJV football players get into their equipment before practice.

As more and more sophomores began driving, it became easier for them to hit the town. No more asking Mommy and Daddy to drive to the hot spots, instead the freedom was left up to the individual or group. Friday nights were self-explanatory. The sophomores attended the football or basketball games then it was off to Pizza Hut or back home. Occasionally, someone would be having a bash which most people would show up at, mingling among each other, eating food and drinking drinks. According to .Megan Woods, “sophomore parties are the absolute best!” Saturday nights were slightly differ- ent. Some sophomores preferred a nice quiet eveing at home with their parents while others rented a movie from Erol’s or went to Skyline to see one. Most sophomores, however, preferred a night out — partying with friends. While some sophomores were seen at upperclasmen parties, some had their own bashes. According to Kim MeKenzie. “Sophomore parties are better than upperclassmen parties because you know most everyone there.” The music was loud but, not too loud, the food and drinks were plentiful and the social spectrum — LARGE!

Sophomores Spending Time In between school and the daily headaches, there conics a time when the sophomores kick back and enjoy life. Whether it’s doing things with others or by themselves, the sophomore class always kept busy. During the 1987-88 school year, the sophomores were known for their togetherness. They spent a lot of time together. During lunch, a group of sophomores could be found outside eating their lunch together and after school the majority of them sat at the far end of the cafeteria and just relaxed. Kim Tennies commented. School’s harder this year and with piano and soccer, things don't lighten up! This could mean less of a social lile for some people but not for these outgoing sophomores! Kxtra curricular ac- tivities were many and weekends were packed full of parties, games and movies. The sophomores kept busy, during the week, by participating in different things. Some chose drama, gymnastics or soccer while others preferred football, track and softball. A c c o r d i n g t o N a t h a n flamed, “Acting is a way I can relieve my tensions. It helps me relax!” All in all. this school year was fun and exciting for the sophomore class.

Sophomores 12d Freshmen Typically, the freshmen were the one class which the seniors could make a profit offsetting elevator passes to, the one class that could never figure out how to open the upper part of the lockers in the freshman commons on the first day of school... right? Well, thanks to the faithful freshman section workers and their quotes from freshmen about upperclassmen (and vice versa), there is evi-I dence that things were a little different with the class of '91. They actually liked the upperclassmen, and, yes some upperclassmen liked them, too. Maybe they didn't explode on to the float scene with much fervor, and maybe they did spend a day or two trying to find room 123 on the second floor, but after making those first few adjustments, the freshmen became a truly unique part of W-L. They showed their spirit at the pep rallies and they started to catch on to the w-L way of life. Most underclassmen couldn't quite figure out why they liked all these thirteen and fourteen year old freshmen, it was just one of those things that was a little MORE than WORDS CAN SAY. — Mina Biker 124 Freshmen Divider L 125 One of the many joys of freshman year miniature lockers ana figuring how to get them open. miss Ledyard's CT English class builds lasting unity while on a trip to the Smithsonian.

At first, they all walked around the school trying to fit into life in High School. As the day went by, their confidence grew. They got to know the other students while coming together as a class. And as they did, it was clear that they had spunk and weren’t going to be pushed around life the “average” Freshman class had been through the years. But, in spite of all this, the Freshmen didn’t stick together as a class, they were a major part of the whole school participating in many school spirit events with and without the Upperclassmen. Oh! No! Will there ever be another “Get Freshman” day? Who will the Upperclassmen throw in the school trashcans? Will calling someone a Freshman or a Frosh ever be an insult again?!! Hopefully not. And the class of 1991, for one, proved it. They had an attitude, but it was a positive one! Kim KullinKton The Beast ie Boys and RUN — PMC.. . evenW-L has their own version.

However, the students came back in 1987 to find that a great deal of changes had taken place over the summer. Many seniors lost both their dean and counselor as Mrs. Dayna Smith and Dr. Barbara Arthurs left and were replaced by Mr. Thomas Armstrong and Mr. Leonard Goldblatt. Mr. Allen Brooks and Mr. Stanley Book, two of the teachers who had been at W-L the longest, both left. However, the staff did not lose their excellence as a result of these and many other changes. Students found that the teachers were still there to explain a problem after school, that the counselors were still around to help solve a scheduling dilemma, and that the administration was still keeping an eye on them. The cafeteria staff was still cooking food for them (even if they did complain about it a lot) and the janitors were still taking care of the school. So even if the students didn't always show it, the effort was appreciated MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY. — Mjfia BMer Faculty Divider 139 Americsn ana world History teacner Mr. schei-strate says of ms vivacious teaching style, w-l enthusiasm gets to me every day. it's an exciting place to teach.

This year we were fortunate to add two new members to our administration: Mr. Robert Armstrong, Assistant Principal, and Mr. Kd Wilson. Athletic Director. Mr. Armstrong replaced Dayna Smith as Assistant Principal. Armstrong has had a positive influence on W-L students, and he says, “The past year has been exciting and full of activity, the future promises to be even better. Rest wishes to the class of ’88. 1 have enjoyed working with all of you.” Mr. Wilson, our new Athletic Director replacing Rill Weisenberger, feels W-L is an exciting new place to work, and it has challenged and rejuvenated him. Wilson says, “I love the student attitude here because even though we don’t always win, there is still a winning spirit!” — Darcy Arnold William J.

I am sure : you will continue to be a positive force in the years to come. Best of everything to all of you. W.J. Sharbaugh 3 WAo Do You Run To? When your math teacher was crazy, your classes were driving you nuts, or you found out that it was class rank day: who did you run to? The Guidance Department of course! They were there when you needed a l SAT form, a college recommendation, or just a sympathetic ear. They were the balance between the regulations of the administration and the whims of the student body. And nobody does it better! The Guidance Department had more functions than simply as a source of SAT forms or college viewbooks. They were the students only real key to the job market, as well as a source of information about the armed forces and financial aid. Guidance Counselor Margaret llarnton says. “A vast amount of knowledge goes unused because students are too shy to talk to us or think that we are too busy. Forget the paperwork and the formalities.

She has also previously performed as a soloist and ensemble member with the Washington Bach Consort, the Choral Arts Society of Washington, and many other Washington groups. Mrs. Dixon is most proud of her choral group. Jubilate. She is a soprano and director of this eight-voice ensemble which she founded in 1984. It has since been successfully performing throughout the area. W-L is fortunate to have Mrs. Dixon instructing Chorus. Choir, and Madrigals. Her professional experience helps her to bring a higher level of professionalism to W-L's singing groups. She has raised the quality of our school singing groups by instilling the necessity of hard work, discipline, and dedication.

Here, in their own words, two W-L teachers tell us their experiences: In 3rd Period Alg. 2 class I was at the board teaching and a student said: Mrs. Frankel 1 love your Avia’s!” Thank-you,” I said. Then, another student said. “No, I like your Reebok’s! I had worn two different tennis shoes to school and was I embarrassed! A few weeks later another math teacher also wore two different shoes. So ... a few weeks later all the other math teachers wore two different shoes just to embarrass us! — Candy Frankel The most humiliating thing that ever happened to me was when my Father stepped on my wedding dress train and it popped off.

Art students work intensely in .Mrs. Giirliotti's art class. The Groups That Made It Happen A good school requires many things — students who want to receive the most profitable education, teachers who are interested in the students, and an administration that desires to make the school the best possible. From Septembers to June 15, faculty and administration members at W-L worked to improve the school’s curriculum through instruction and participation. The daily school routine ws supplemented by weekly faculty meetings and special conferences. Fach instructor’s and administrator’s efforts reflected the combined academic spirit of W-L. The guidance department, under the direction of Dr. Hill, continued its program to counsel and aid students in their academic activities, including the dreaded SAT’s and college applications. They also assisted students in making preparations for other opportunities upon graduation and planning academic schedules for the W-L curriculum next year. W-L offers opportunities not available at many other schools. In addition, to the usual classes of English, Math. Social Studies, and Science, the students were offered AP classes for college level work, art class, photography. music, and language courses. Durey Arnold Mrs. Williams smiles as she cheerfully answers the phone on a Monday morning. 150 Faculty Faculty I.M Academics Organizations Academics? Well, that's a new one. But doesn't the way that W-L students spend 5 hours and 15 minutes, 5 days a week, deserve more than just a passing glance? And the hassles of homework, tests, finals, or those hopeless AP tests were hopefully balanced out by the classroom crack-ups or entertaining teachers. For each horrible test, there was, in all probability, an assignment that came back with a really (surprise!) good grade. The W-L organizations were wide and varied and constantly changing. A need for new groups to represent new interests brought clubs such as the cosmopolitan club and Black Awareness club to students this year. A commitment to a W-L organization could mean anything from a once every six weeks math test with the Virginia Math League to a once a week meeting with a language club to a one hour a day plus commitment to choir, band, or a publications class. Academics and organizations were two of the greatest assets in the lives of W-L students. The experiences in class and with organizations is one more thing that can't be summed up in even the best term paper, the best teacher's lecture, or most importantly, in the best yearbook copy. One more thing that's just MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY. — mm Baker 152 Acaderrrtcs Orisanizations Divider ALL TEACHER ll % J staff Working in the notary after school.

There were basic, regular, intensified, and advanced placement levels to satisfy everyone. These classes all concentrated on similar curricula — vocabulary, literature, grammar, and class discussions. The Social Studies department also offered a diverse selection. Courses in World History. U.S. and VA Government, European History, and American Civilizations were offered, and also at different intensity levels. The Drama Department was a very popular one at W-L this year. Students could learn how to create a scene or perfect a line in drama classes. Students also enjoyed working back stage during productions with sets, costumes, ami make-up.

Students walking past the attendance office during 5th period might often have wondered what the noise across the hall was. Well, it was just the conversation of the Penman staff members working on W-L’s own literary magazine. The staff is comprised every year of seniors, chosen by Penman sponsor John Harocopos, who critique and edit fiction, non-fiction, and poetry that is submitted by students for publication. This year’s staff met everyday during 5th period, and, under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Natalie Heins and Mr. Harocopos, spent the year producing the two annual cop- ies of Penman. Penman member lien Harris said: “Penman isn’t just sitting around and making popcorn,” which brings us to Penman Popcorn — the only popcorn that is endorsed by well-known teachers and administrators in creative morning announcements. The aroma of Penman's popcorn could be smelled throughout the halls every Tuesday and Thursday. Penman has had very successful years throughout the past, and only great things are anticipated for the future.

Then, once the newspaper was distributed, students read about areas of interest and concern, such as: open campus lunch, new school policies, sports, college information, and other such items.

This hook that you’re flipping through now the 1988 Blue and Gray — is the product of a lot of hard work, chaos, panic, deadlines, and creativity. Every day during 6th period the yearbook staff met in the publications room to create this masterpiece. Everyone was busy doing something, from drawing layouts to cropping pictures to typing copy to selling ads. Deadline time for the yearbook staff was always an interesting experience for outsiders to witness. Anxiety and a change of character would posses members of the staff and transform them into something scary as they rushed to meet the deadline.

Mr. John Englishman and Mrs. Joan Nester held the position of sponsors. They also contributed an outstanding amount of time and effort towards the team. The Debate Team for 1987-88 got off to a slow start, due to lack of participation. but slowly evolved into a dedicated group. The members participated in many area tournaments, primarily sponsored by VHSL. The team met on Fridays with team sponsor Mr. John liarocopos.

A Organizations 165 Science, Math, And The science, math, and computer fields of study are rapidly developing: in the real world based on the advances in high technology. The departments at Washington-Lee are swiftly modernizing to meet the needs of our demanding society. Many students participated this year in math, science, and computer classes to prepare themselves for the future. Washington-Lee’s math department was challenging as well as rewarding. Everyone had to enter the mathematical world of numbers and symbols sometime in their high school career. In order to graduate with 20 credits, students must take at least two math courses. To obtain an advanced studies diploma. they must complete three math cdurses. The classes range from general math up to college-level calculus. The department’s newest teacher was Ms. Crandle. Computers are considered the wave of the future. However, at Washington-Lee. they are very much in the present. All of this year’s computer classes were taught by Mr. I'veges. Our school has two computer rooms, equipped with over forty personal computers. This department was very popular among many students. Washington-Lee’s science department was also very advanced. Students worked with the latest equipment in performing experiments in many fields of science, including Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Students solved everyday problems and learned about modern developments in the scientific world. This year, there were three new science teachers. Mrs. Delacy. Dr. Peters, and Mr. Hyers. The math, science, and computer departments at Washington-Lee are always striving to improve their curriculum. They work together to prepare students for our changing modern world.

LEAGUE, AND VIRGINIA MATH LEAGUE CHALLENGING YOUR MIND Science Research Club, under the sponsorship of Dr. Celita Yarn, supported W-L students in their independent research. Students conducting their own experiments were encouraged to compete in various competitions. Dr. Yarn stated that researches “help science processes solve problems.” Continental Math League was a group of students competing in five exams consisting of six exceptionally difficult questions each in 25 minutes. This group, headed by .Mr. Carl Tho-burn. was open to all 9th graders. Awards and certificates were given out at the end of the year to the highest scorer. Virginia Math League was another group competing for awards and certificates. Participants had to compete in six exams of six questions each. The students had 30 minutes to try each test. Instead of just opening to 9th graders, this competition welcomed students of all grade levels. Mr. Cary Southard summed up that Virginia Math League was a “competition to expand critical thinking of all math students.” — K ll� Chang With a pensive expression.

Organizations HU Language And The two language teaching departments at Washington-Lee were very popular among students. One of these departments was HILT, an acronym for High Intensity Language Training. HILT teachers taught not only English, but also math, social studies, and other academic courses. A majority of the HILT program consisted of native Spanish-speaking students. The main purpose of the HILT program was to prepare foreign speaking students for the mainstream classes. The Language Department at Washington-Lee was very diverse. Four different foreign languages were offered this year — German, French, Latin, and Spanish. The 20-credit diploma does not require that any foreign language classes be taken to graduate. However, to obtain an advanced studies diploma, one must take either three years of one foreign language or two years of two foreign languages. The teachers taught a wide range of students — from beginners to fluent speakers. This year two new teachers entered the language system — Mrs. Ben-Abdallah and Dr. liadiji. Also, two teachers moved from the HILT Department to teach at least part of the day in the Language Department — Mr. Contreras and Dr. (iorman. The HILT and Language Departments were very active at Washington-Lee. The learning of another language serves not only as a fun experience, but also as a benefit in communication. — Ilral hrr Lilly L “My pet peeve about W-L students is that they do not return the respect gfiven to them by their teachers.” — Mrs. Ken-Ahdallah 170 Academics Hilt Departments Augusto Rojas sits in class looking forward to the end of school and summer fun.

INTERNATIONAL CLUBS “WE ARE THE WORLD” Washington-Lee’s many languages and culture clubs were very popular among the students. This year’s French. German, and International clubs had very large memberships. The French Club promoted the teaching of French culture by participating in diverse activities. This year we had a lot of changes, including a new sponsor and new and exciting activities.” commented President Kate Hwa. The French Club enjoyed seeing popular French movies and eating at local French restaurants. They also participated in the Holiday Bazaar, by raffling “Buches de Noels” to raise money. The function and purpose of the German club was to have fun while becoming aware of the German culture. Some of the activities included seeing German movies, taking fieldtrips. and attending the National German Convention, which was held in Lynchburg. Virginia in March. One other expedition was a trip to Lancaster. Pennsylvania to see how the German-American Amish people live and work. The money earned by selling food at the Bazaar went to pay for the National German Exam, which was taken by every German student. With a membership of over sixty people, the International Club was a popular student activity this year. The main event sponsored by this club was the international Week and the festive International Night Show. On International Night, members from the club performed dances and songs. There was a fashion show and international music was played. At the end of the special night, a new Miss International was crowned. All themoney earned from the night went to help the adoption of a needy child from another country. These language and culture clubs enriched the lives of the students who participated in them by promoting knowledge of the way people live in other countries, and helping them to gather an understanding of the different cultures. — Ilratht-r Lilly Gwynn Lawrence seems very interested in the upcoming events of t he French Club, while D:u id Nelson is distracted by the camera.

Organizations 173 LATIN, SPANISH, VIETNAMESE, j “AROUND THE WORLD IN 180 DAYSr Several other languages and culture clubs were in existance this year at Washington-Lee. These various clubs gave students the opportunity to enjoy and study the diverse cultures around the world. The Latin Club consisted of over twenty members and was sponsored by .Mrs. Wilkerson. The club engaged in many exciting. original activities. They sold candy, went on fieldtrips to see Roman and Greek art. and had a Latin picnic. The club also participated in the Holiday Bazaar, where members dressed in togas and sold bake goods. The Spanish Club was a very popular club at Washington-Lee. Mrs. Rondon sponsored this group of thirty in their activities. They participated in the Holiday Bazaar by selling traditional Latin American Food's. All the money the club raised went to sponsor a Latin American child. The small, close-knit Vietnamese Club, helped students understand and appreciate the Vietnamese language and culture. The club sponsored various culture events. including picnics and parties. They partici-ated in the Holiday Bazaar and cele-rated the Vietnamese New Year. At all the meetings, the members were required to speak Vietnamese. A brand new club came into existance at Washington-Lee this year — the Black Awareness Club. “The purpose of the club is to enrich all. people, not just black people. on the events and people of Black History. explained President Tanya Bonham. At each meeting, a designated person gave an oral presentation on a prominent person in Black History. The members also promoted Black History Month and celebrated the birthday of Martin Luther King. Jr. This year, for the first time, several of the language clubs participated in combined activities. These included volleyball games, scavenger hunts, and the enriching International Language Night which was held on December 18th. This night was very successful and brought together many cultures to share customs and ideas. Ilcntlift Lilly Members of the Spanish Club sign up to participate in the upcoming candy sale.

Students participated in art. photography, painting, ceramics, crafts, drawing, and commercial design programs. Carol Gigliotti was this year’s new art teacher, sharing with students her artistic secrets. Students displayed their art work throughout the year in various art exhibitions and displays in the school. The Industrial Arts department continued to teach students creative and useful skills. There were classes in electronics, sign painting, technical drawing, auto and household mechanics, and woodworking. Our own music department, consisting of the Madrigals, the choir, the chorus, the band, and the orchestra, was exciting again this year. The Madrigals continue to excel, under the leadership of Ms. Carleen Dixon. Mr Alexander Robinson kept the band marching to the right beat, and Mrs. Helen Fall directed the orchestra to honors again. The Home Economics department offered students classes in many different life-like situations. One could take a class in child development, teen living, money management, cooking or clothing. The students that participated in this department enjoyed the classes and learned a lot for the future! — JruKa Hartvv Michael Bennett — a true celloist — prepares for orchestra rehearsal.

The 25 member senior group that specialized in “a cappella” (unaccompanied) singing performed throughout the year, including 24 different times in December! The Madrigals also held many fundraising events — such as concerts, singing telegrams, and a booth at the Christmas Bazaar — to finance their May trip to a choral competition in Myrtle Beach, S.C. President Charles (Buck said, when asked about being a Madrigal, that “it’s an experience beyond belief!” The choir and the chorus, also under Mrs. Dixon’s direction, were also heard often making melodies. They participated in many school events like the Christmas Concert, the Bazaar, and various assemblies. The choir’s student director. Rosanna Piper said: “There was something really great about being a part of choir. It made you aware of your own self-worth; it gave you confidence. That made all of us work had to gain a feeling of accomplishment, because choir gives you back what you put into it. It was very satisfying. Maybe that was why we all enjoyed it so much.” Junior Kate Stevenson put it simply, by saying: “Choir is very nice!” -louira llartw Tin- Madrigals performing during the Winter Assembly at W-L.

A Organizations 179 BAND AND PLAY IT AGAIN, SAM The ever enthusiastic band has become a significant part of the Washington-Lee tradition, a tradition the W-L students were really proud of this past year. The W-L band helped lift the spirits and raise enthusiasm in the student body at football games, assemblies, and pep rallies. The band went to most of the Varsity football games, home and away, and also participated in the University of Richmond Hand Shining the light on the Generals during halftime at a W-L football game. Competition last fall. Under the direction of drum major Tyler Townsend and Mr. Alexander Robinson, the band proved that the Generals could really shine. Another performing group that made W-L shine was Orchestra. Our orchestra has a tradition that makes them one of the highest-rated in Arlington County. They have performed in many holiday concerts and have re- ceived superior markings festivals and competition. In the performances ol the past year, the orchestra has prover | to be an excellent addition to our as semblies. But success came at a high | price and it included many rehearsal and hours put in to perfecting theii skills.

The all-county orchestra marched down the avenue for Arlington's annual parade. The hand was always full of spirit and enthusiasm at W-I. foot hall games. W-L orchestra members string up their instruments after the Arlington County Parade. While some students were preparing for college life after high school, others were preparing to enter the business world. FBLA and DECA were just two organizations within the business department that helped these students to prepare for their future career goals. If a poll was taken at W-L. Physical Education likely would not be most students’ favorite class. Although P.E. was not their favorite subject, it gave the students an opportunity to experience many different types of sports. The Students Resource (’enter (SRC) was a special program directed by Marylou Feehan. One of the teachers commented. “Some students come to the Resource Center for classes. Some come for help with assignments and tests. And some come for a pat on the back.” — Kelly Chang “Lot's see, the bur hole is for the head, the little holes are for the arms, right? asks Steven Brammer. “How did he do that?” wonders Devon Kawson. Business, Physical Education “Nothing scared me, but it was good to be back teaching at the school I graduated from.” Ms. Grimm “The best thing about W-L is having an up-to-date business laboratory and the freedom to choose whatever teaching materials are needed.” Mr. Greene 182 Academics And SRC “The thing: I like best about W-L is the variety of the students — all great kids.” Mrs. (Jeer A Academics 183 Nathalia Alvarez flips through ELI.K magazine, hoping someday to become a part of the fashion world.

The organization’s diamond-shaped emblem formed when members participated in the four areas of character building: Leadership Development, Civic Consciousness, Social Intelligence, and Vocational Understanding. The wrapped package in the center of the diamond symbolized “a job well done, a job done cooperatively between the school, the community. Look at .Michele McNeese!!! She's making good use of the school computers. and the home. The W-L Chapter of DECA had been very active this past school year. Their activities included a trip to New York’s Fashion District, attending major publication fashion events, providing a gift-wrapped service to Ballston Common Mall patrons, and many other social activities with other Deca Chapters in the district. Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA)was another organization within the business department that helped Washington-Lee students to prepare for their future career goals. Stacey Jones took a break from Mr. Green's business class to smile for the camera. This program was designed to help students get a feeling of not just one field of business, but many different types. Mr. Greene who’s the sponsor, has been helping students for 30 years and will continue to do so. Another business organization that was available to W-L students was Vocational Office Training (VOT). This cooperative office education program provided instruction related to office experience for students from secretarial. general office, acounting. and computer programs. This course was a great way for students to develop their skills that were necessary in the business world. Kt-lly Chang I VOT: 1st row — Cynthia Turner.

The SCA, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Morris, had a very rewarding year. With the effective leadership of president Jaci (iilfillan and dedicated members, SCA was able to accomplish many goals. Among the achievements were the smooth supervision of all class’elections, well-planned organization of Homecoming week, successful food toy drives during the holidays, and helpful blood drives for the American Red Cross. The Key Club, dedicated to help serve the needs of the community, willingly did odd jobs no one wanted to do, but needed to be done. Under the strong co-presidency of Kiki Hong and Susanne Seefeldt. this club was able to succeed many achievements. One of such achievements was appreciation dinners. President Christian Barker stated that the main goal of SADI) was to inform the students of W-L and the community of the dangers of drinking and driving. In trying to combat teen drunk driving, services were set up to provide students with a free and confidential ride home. Many were encouraged to contact these hotlines during the holidays, rather than to drive home intoxicated. Tracy Pilot. Caroline Pons.

Students were screened by guidance for the required 4.5 grade point average. These students were sent informational survey forms which they filled out and discussed their individual accomplishments in four separate areas: leadership, character, scholarship, and service. The surveys were then reviewed by a panel of teachers and guidance counselors, and finally only a select few were chosen to become members of the National Honor Society. This society performed various service projects for the school and community and all the money that was raised was given to a select organization. Individuals were also required to perform a minimum number of service hours per semester. This year's president was Sarah Mannon and it was co-sponsored by 1s. la-dyard and I r. Weinhardt.

Sports Washington-Lee wasn't an athletic powerhouse in 1987-1988; every team didn't possess a winning record. But the W-L athletes and coaches were one of the most vital areas of our school. Each athlete displayed varying levels of commitment to one or more sports, but each of them contributed to the spirit, dedication, and organization that keeps the W-L sports teams alive year after year. Some very special achievements and recognition was given this year to W-L thanks to many teams which consistently proved their winning ability: boys' varsity basketball, girls' gymnastics, boys' soccer, and various other groups. Members of the wrestling, crew, and rifle teams displayed outstanding records. More importantly, however, even the members of the teams who turned in only one or two wins also committed themselves to the discipline and effort needed to achieve personal goals and to work as a team. A track meet or a freshman football game was no less important to the participants than any widely attended basketball game, because those athletes were making their work pay off. It was this type of commitment that led w-L through another year of not only schoolwide, but personal success in sports. The admiration of and participation in the Generals sports program proves that its importance in our lives continues to be MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY. - Mini Biker 19-1 Sport Divider After an exhausting practice.

They attended all football games, pep rallys and bon-fires. During the games, they showed their spirit for the Generals by cheering them along. They performed at the pep rallys, half-time shows, competitions, parades and games. This year’s squad was directed by Mr. Robinson, also the band’s instructor.

No matter what the circumstances, one could always find fans cheering on our precious Generals.

The (ienerals were bigger than in the last few years, and promising new players were ready to play up to their potentials. Jimmy Jones became a starter on both offense and defense. He and sophomore Juan I’age were a dangerous combination at running back, with fullback Jimmy Williams blocking for them. Page was also a good receiver out of the backfield, and with seniors Willie Griffin, Jackie Moore, and Max Surikov, the Generals’ receiving corps was a good one. The quarterbacking job was split between seniors Mike Heber and Eddy Matos. Both played like veterans, even though between them they had only one game of varsity experience. Despite this impressive lineup, the Generals had a terrible season. After a tough 6-0 defeat against Wakefield in the opener, W-L came back to defeat Falls Church, 13-6. The Generals then went on a losing streak against the tough Great Falls District. Half of the Generals’ opponents were invitd to the State Football Championship Tournament. The competition was on of our team’s main problems this year, but there was another problem. “Sometimes it seems like we can’t get enthusiastic.” said Mike Heber. “We just haven’t gotten psyched for games. Captain Eddy Matos added, “We just don’t practice or play like our hearts are in it.’’ — David Clayton lireakaway. Sophomore Juan Page uses his quickness to get by a Madison defender.

Freshmen Blues Brothers The Generals Junior Varsity and Freshmen Football Teams once again underwent a season of transaction. The J.V. lost many starters to the Varsity who were replaced by less experienced players. Many of the Freshmen players were playing organized football for the first time. The teams started the season with a high level of intensity, and kept it all year. Through a series of tough losses, the Generals maintained their high spirits. The teams showed their enthusiasm in the season finale against York-town, where the J.V. scored on their first drive, and the Freshmen on the second play from scrimmage. The Great Falls District was full of good football schools whose Freshmen and J.V. teams were as good at their levels as the Varsities were at theirs. Hopefully, the future Varsity Generals will keep their spirits high and work hard to regain the level of football that W-L enjoyed in the sixties and seventies.

Bessie kolokousis shows off the squad's awards and her spirit that helped the squad win the spirit stick award. Cheers!! This past year, the Varsity Cheerleaders were very active in many things. As usual, they cheered at all varsity football games, basketball games, wrestling matches, pep rallys. “It’s Academic, and bon-fires. But this year, something extra was added to this cheerleading squad. They had a sense of unity, which was a lot different from previous squads. “We all worked hard and we accomplished a lot. but what made this year so much better than all the other years, was that we did it together.” commented Nicole Baskerville. All their hard work did pay off through a competition held at their camp, which they had prepared for during the summer. They took second place which made them eligible to compete in an International Competition at The closeness of this squad is shown at a varsity football game. Tennessee. They also received the highest award at camp for the best squad all around. The squad not only worked hard at many 6:30 a.m., after school and summer practices, but they held many spirit raisers after school: cheerleader auctions, pie throwing, sponge throwing, and pep rallys. The squad was led by captain Bessie Kolokousis. co-captain Jaci Cilfillan and sponsor Mary Causey. These three worked hard at making sure everyone stayed on track. After everything that this squad has accomplished throughout this year (being the first squad from W-L to be eligible to compete in an international cheerleading competition, their togetherness and skill) it will be hard for other squads to have such an impact as this one did.

The J.V. cheerleaders contributed greatly to the spirit at W-L. Cheering at all of the football and basketball frames was only the start for these frills; they sold programs at varsity events and performed in several pep rallies. There was something different about this year’s J.V. The majority of the squad was made up of juniors. Meredith Busby, the J.V. captain, commented. I think it adds a lot to our squad and we are really having a good time.” The other cocaptain was Bosanna Hiper. Hectic schedules caused by lliiyen Nguyen says, let me down to Tammy Harrison. early morning practices and late night games could have had a bad influence on these girls, but instead, they were a group deserving of Washington-Lee’s pride. The freshman squad was another spirited bunch, even though trying out for cheerleading wasn’t the easiest thing for them to do. Attending G:30 a.m. practices was definitely a big change from junior high. Captain Shauna N ick and co-captain Holly Smith agreed that. It’s totally different from junior high, it’s a lot of hard work but also a bunch of fun!’’ Mary Causey, the sponsor of these two squads commented, Both squads are working hard and doing a good job.” Kran Chalukoff Freshman and .IV Checrlcading I « I I Girls Can’t Buy Me Love This year’s tennis team had an exciting season.

Tara Selario added that, “The season was rough, but we all stuck together.” The most consistent player on the team was freshman Caroline Pons who won six of her matches which gave her an invitation to Districts.

The 1987 Generals Cross Country Team ran four to six miles every day through many parts of Arlington. Its meets were run at Bluemont Park. The team had a hard time competing because of its lack of support. It’s hard for us to win against schools that have twice as many students as us. said Steve Elsberg, the top male Laugh-In.

Cathy Graham, top female runner before a mid-season injury, added, “Another problem is that few people here run cross country, and at other schools there are enough runners for Varsity and J.V. teams. These problems caused a lot of trouble for our cross country team, but its members all improved their times in the meets, and they had fun running the roads and parks of Arlington. — David Clayton The Long Run.

Riiing ... the bell rang at 2:00, everyone flooded into the commons, and began to get ready to go home. While everyone was leaving, eleven people went to the locker room and began to put on sweat pants, sweat shirts, and other warm clothes. These eleven people were the W-L indoor track team. They were used to the cold and snow because everyday for 2 hours they were out in it practicing hand-offs, hurdles and timing. The coach, Donnie Hardy, provided this team with workouts that began with a mile warmup, which was usually followed by many sprints around the track (440. 660, 220 yards) then the entire team moved inside to complete their workout by lifting weights. This year's indoor team had four returning runners: Juniors Richard Urbina. Jennifer Ulster. Jimmy Hryan and Senior Colby Schaefer. Colby commented, “This year's team was small in size, but its quality, not quantity is what counts, and we sure had plenty of that. Track is a very difficult sport to condition for, and everyone has done their best to reach their fullest potential. I am looking forward to the outdoor season because of our potential. Most of their track meets were at Thomas Jefferson, where they took place at the early hour of 6:00a.m. This indoor track team will always be remembered as having dedication and inspiration, the qualities needed to be a successful team. — J ci Gilfillan The track team members: 1st row ( olden Pratt, l.isa Semanchick.

I enjoy competing especially with such supportive team members there for you.” Even though the squad was small due to the fact that many seniors graduated last year, it remained constantly in heavy competition with all the other schools, and scored well. With many new members having joined the team this year, the girls' gymnastics team has a bright future with the years to come. — Jao Cilfillan Under the direction of coach Joe D’Emidio and Co-Captains, Marybeth Brantley and Meg Woods, Washington-Lee's girls gymnastics team had a very successful year. During practices, held two hours after school everyday, the members had to make up new routines, practice these routines over and over, select their music for their floor routine, learn and perfect new moves, practice balance, and above all that, keep a smile. Sophomore, Meg Woods, one of the stronger members of the team in all aspects, commented. “Although we are overpowered Girls' Gymnastics Girls (Jar) Harvey drives to the basket an draws the blocking foul. Big Time The sound of a basketball passing through the hoop. There is no other sound like it in any sport. Whether it was the soft swish of a three-pointer or the wrenching sound of a powerful dunk, the fans of the Washington-Lee Generals heard it many times during the season. The starting point guard and director of the offense was Eric Withers, who was one of the best ball-handlers in the region. Joining him in the backcourt was his brother, Marc, who was very accurate from both inside and outside the nineteen foot three point line. Gary Harvey’s inside play and strong rebounding at power forward were essential in the offensive game, and when left one-on-one he could post up against any forward he faced. Jackie Moore gave the offense another dimension at small forward; he could either break and shoot a three-pointer, or he could drive inside and take his defender to the hoop. Finishing fastbreaks, his dunks were impressive, to say the least. In the middle of it all was center Crawford Palmer. He was the team leader, the leader in scoring, rebounds, and blocked shots. When he was on the court, opponents were forced to double-and-triple-team him, leaving an opening for his teammates. The defense could take more chances knowing he was behind them ready to swat opponents’ shots into the stands. Coming off the bench were: John Wing, whose three-pointers could give the team a boost at any time; Edson Bravo, a strong rebounder despite his relatively small size; and An Nguyen. Kayle Graves, and Matt Whittles, whose quickness and speed were invaluable in the Generals’ defense. The head coach was Dale Bethel, who led them to a 16-4 record, 11-3 in their final year in the Great Falls District. The Generals went into the District tournament with the number two seed. The sound of the ball hitting the net. Whether it was the three-point bomb or the reverse jam. the Generals left the sound ringing in the ears of both fans and opponents all year. — David Clayton The Hoys' arsity Basketball Team.

The Freshman team had success, scoring early season wins over Langley and Marshall. “We have a good team because so many guys came out for the team,” coach Eric Hill said.

Girls’ Varsity Returning Players Show the Way Although the Girl’s Varsity Basketball team didn’t have a perfect season, they kept their spirits alive. Their big win over T. C. Williams proved that they could play the best of them. This year, with the help of freshman center Annise Dickerson and forwards Lea Poldiak and Tanya Bonham, the lady Generals had a more well rounded scoring attack. As Tania Velez, a senior guard, says “This year’s team did really well and hung in there until the end- never giving up. There were some games when we played with one or no subs, and did well. It was an experience and we all feel we came out on top!’’ Tania Velez this year split her playing time with sophomore Lisa D’Ambrosio, who was in her second year as a Varsity Lady General. One of this years captain’s was senior forward Tanya Bonham, who was one of the scoring leaders in the Great Falls District. “I feel very proud being noted as one of the top scorers in the district,” she commented. This years coach was Del Norwood. — Fran Chalukoff The starters wait anxiously to warm up before the game. The coach calls a time out for the players to rest. The Lady Generals go for a basket.

Captain Jennifer Simmons said, “Considering we had lost all of our games in the beginning of the season, we still kept our spirits high. With the new players and coach we had to start from the beginning and work our way up.” This year’s young J.V. team had lots of potential. “We had a young team, many of the girls had never played before. All the girls worked hard and showed lots of improvement,” commented Laura Grimm.

The co-captains were seniors Kathleen Sievers and Irma Jones. Irma said “We had a lot of people go out for the team, many of them underclassmen. I see a lot of potential for a good team next year.” The Swim Team lost seven seniors at the end of the season. Junior Amanda DePriest said of the Swim Team this year “I think swimming was a lot of fun this year. We have a real good team and we have a lot of fun at practice and at meets.” But swimming wasn’t all fun and games, it was hard work and the water was cold.

Mat Men Make Mayhem Although this year’s JV and Varsity Wrestling teams were small in numbers, they definitely were not small in victories. With Varsity Captain Pablo Cantillana and JV Co-Captains Steve Vieit and John D'Elateur to lead the way, this team couldn't go wrong. Practice was held every day after school for two hours. The workouts were lead by the Captains and by the coach, Mr. Mon. He has been coach for W-L Varsity and JV wrestling teams for six years. When Mr. Mon was asked to comment on this year’s team he replied, “We may have a small team, but the boys work hard, play hard and win hard, Their dedication is to be admired because their effort is maximal.” The nucleus of the team is formed around five seniors, each senior boy is backed up by an un-derclass-man. The teams difficulty was filling the thirteen weight classes. Although a lot of dedication and hard work are characteristics of this sport this years team also had determination and drive behind them and it was shown in individual victories. — Jar!

The score is 40-30, and this is the final game — if he wins. He serves. “Out!” calls his opponent. He serves again. The ball sails in and they begin to volley. Every shot is placed carefully. He waits for the opportunity to put the ball away to arise. Finally, after what seems like forever, the moment is here. He eyes the spot, and with force and precision he places the shot. His opponent, head down in defeat, crosses the court to shake hands. “Good game.” The W-L boys’ tennis team had a great season in ’88. Under the leadership of first year coach Jack Armistead. the Generals volleyed their way to victory. The top player was state-ranked Joe Henson. Benson was backed by Strong players Mark Casperino. Darren Hague, ('hris Garwood. Jonathan Morgan, and James Scott. In the pre-season junior Chris Garwood commented: “We have a strong team this year with a lot of depth. We should be more of a threat than ever to beat York-town and Langley.

Ms. Watson said about the Varsity team, “All of the girls with the exception of one returned this year, and it made for a very successful season.” To prepare for the season, they did aerobics two days a week before school and lifted weights after school. Mr. Turner said, “The girls showed a lot of dedication by showing up to the aerobics, weight lifting, and running.” The team practiced after school starting on February 22nd and had the advantage of the use of the stadium field from 2:30 to 3:30 every day. “I think that the soccer program at W-L is quickly improving and becoming a total fitness program.

Many underclassmen vied for the 18 available positions on the junior varsity squad. Coach John May. the team's new coach, was dissapointed that he could not keep all the players. Coach May was originally from London. England. Coach May commented, With a fine mixture of talent the team has the potential to be very successful this season. By playing one game at a time with good teamwork and sportsmanship, our goals can be achieved. Believing in fitness as well as skills. Coach May put the team through strenuous endurance excercises, but didn’t neglect the need for skills development. “Conditioning was hard, but necessary. I enjoy the drills and practice games, and learning to play with the older players.” said freshman Justin (iodard. Cameraderie, discipline, and sportsmanship were learned by all the players. Captain Jerry Edmunds predicted, “I expect the team to perform well and win a lot games.” One thing was for sure, boys’ junior varsity soccer wasn’t all fun and games — it was heading in the right direction. — copy by (in Sanamkonr Layout by Fran Chalukoff Generals set up for a goal.

Soccer team started out with great enthusiasm, which they carried throughout the entire season. The team was made up primarily of returning sophomores and juniors along with many new freshmen. All of the players experienced an exciting and invigorating spring season. The team members enjoyed the innovative coaching of first year coach, Mark Turner. “Coach Turner has been working with us at practice and we’ve been looking much better,” explained Paige Bayliss, a sophomore team member. Mr. Turner described his expectations of the team in the following way, “the purpose of our season is to increase our individual skill level and excel to our potential as a team. Through diligence exhibited on a daily basis at practice, we hope to develop ourselves to our fullest both on and off the field.” Both the coach and the players worked extremely hard to achieve a successful season. Off-the-field excitement turned into on-the-field energy, which all team members exhibited during every game. — ropy by llratlu-r Lilly Layout by Fran Chalukoff Front row Sarah lleber, Karrna Wowl.Trrma Karn-h, .'i I MaraS.lira-li-.nndy Aj-i- I, Itonna K -l- n V. , , |Jri Palm Bayliss, llratbrr Roberts 3rd row i Tashara Briscoe.

Getting to First Base This year the varsity baseball team was young: and the players were not the only inexperienced personnel. The coaching staff included two first year, high school coaches. The head coach, Danny Pototsky, is a W-L graduate and a graduate of the University of Kentucky. At the University of Kentucky he played baseball, and when he graduated, he became an assistant coach there. Coach Pototsky's assistant was another W-L graduate, Mike Murray, ('each Murray played for and graduated from the University of Florida. Both coaches agree that “with a lot of hard work and an always necessary bit of luck we can be contender in the district.” Due to the lack of experience on the team, the more experienced players formed a tight nucleus, which the younger players looked to for support. Some of the returning players were captains Mike Heber and Jimmy Yowell and juniors Tarry McGovern and Nathan Brow n, also seniors Dave Clayton, Jack Munsey, Andy Strasser. “We always seem to come up a little short,” says senior Mike Heber, “whether it be in our quality of coaching or in the number of players who try out, but this year with the new coaches and more kids out, we had a decent team.” — Copy by Julir Run Layout by llavtd Clayton Nathan Brown anil Mike Heber warm up before a game.

The team had only three returning senior players. Dawn Terminella. Kea ()r-fanos, and Michelle Valenzuela. Those three girls were the core of the team. Juniors such as Tara Selario, Ivye Mink and Klena Hyer (from H.B. Woodlawn) helped the Generals along. Since the team was young, it was hard to work together as a team. Dawn Terminella commented, “Our team looks very promising, due to the show of new faces at our first meeting.” Coach Schelstrate agrees that Varsity Softball Members of the team take break from practice early in the year.

There were quite a few and talented young players. The team was coached by Jim Hatch with assistant coach Richard Conklin, a former player at W-L. Michael Cowell, a freshman on the team, commented that “we had a very exciting season.” The junior varsity team was stable both offensively and defensively. The new freshmen and eighth graders replaced the positions left by former players very successfully. The Junior Varsity team showed to be a strong competitor next year as well because of the number of freshmen and eighth graders currently on the team. “We had a lot of young players this year who showed a lot of potential,” added Coach Hatch. copy by Julie Kang Layout by David Clayton .Mike Cowell awaits a throw from right field in practice.

Hascball On The Ball Junior varsity softball coached by, Lori Grim, had a very successful 1988 year. Each girl worked hard and had a Rood time. Ix� ri Grim was a new coach to Wash ington-Lee. She came from Wakefield. There she coached junior varsity which had a very successful 1987 year. The majority of girls on J.V. had played softball before and had some experience. Others had never picked up a bat. Every girl worked hard and put 110% effort into each practice. For some girls, this effort proved beneficial, in that they were moved to Varsity. Jeanette Lavere was one of those girls. “I am excited about being on Varsity and I plan on working hard til the end of the season.” Jeanette said. Kyra .Milinic stated, We had to work really hard but, we had lots of fun!” They did work hard! They practiced from 3:00 to 5:00 everyday and Saturday practices were common. Every other day the girls lifted weights to build up their upper bodies. Drills, drills and more drills were devised by coach Grimm to improve basic techniques. J.V. also had a strong pitcher new to Washington-Lee. named Kathy Riely. She made it all happen for them!!

But the work involved in creating a winningshell can only be understood by those who have devoted innumerable hours to the sport. This year's boys' crew team certainly understood what it takes to put forth a winningeffort. They practiced long ami hard on both the land and the water. Land workouts consisted mainly of running and lifting weights. These workouts helped to build strong muscles ami endurance needed for precision rowing. Once on the water, everything had to come together. Perfect strokes were expected every time. The shells were seen moving up and down the Potomac every day after school. The boys performed drills and practiced pieces to prepare themselves for the upcoming races. Competition was the highlight of the season. Every Saturday, the team ventured out on the road to put their skills to the test. They competed in races against other area schools, in hopes of bringing home yet another first place Shock ribbon. A junior team member and cocaptain, Alex Lyman, described the sensation that many team members felt this year of crossing the finish line first and feeling the victory push away any pain I made myself endure. That sense of winning could only be obtained by intense hard work and dedication tocrew. Many boys had mixed feelings about the amount of time the sport took up. Every member of this team had to get used to the long hours of practice every day after school and the seemingly endless Saturdays of racing. Most agree with Patrick Breagy, who stated, to be good, we all need to invest a lot of time. Rowing is definitely a sport to which one must Ik devoted. However, the sense of accomplishment one gains from being involved in crew makes up for the long hours and intense work. — Copy by: lli-atbrr I.illy and JmKj llnilrf Layout by: Jan Uilfillan Left to Right.

A novice eight take: late afternoon sun. a break from rowing in Girls’ Crew Our Wake, Your Funeral It's an early Saturday morning and the boat is sitting in the starting block. Every muscle in the rower's body is tense as she waits for the race to begin. The coxain yells to her to take two strokes and line the boat up. Suddenly, she hears the French command, Etes-vous prete? Partez! By the sheer force of muscle and determination her boat lurches forward and down the long lane. Every stroke that she takes must mimic the person’s in front of her. Up for ten!” is the coxswain's command. Five minutes of hard rowing have passed, and the boat nears the finish line. “Sprint! Sprint!” yells the coxswain. Go. W-L!”cheers the crowd. As quickly as it started, the race is over, and she looks to see where T.C.'s shell finished ... W-L's girls' crew team enjoyed another strong and successful year in its long-standing tradition. Coached by 13 year coach Tom Chisnell. the girls worked hard to live up to Chisnell's preseason expectations — ”... to win Nationals and do well.” Practices, at the Potomac Boat Club in Georgetown, were held every day throughout the spring season. During practices the girls ran for miles on the towpath, sprinted up hills, lifted weights, and rowed for hours on the Potomac. Dedication to crew was a must for these girls. “It requires a lot of devotion; you have to give up a lot of things to row, said junior team member Gillian Adams. Because of their hard work and dedication to crew, the girls were victorious in many of their regattas. The only drawback to these regattas that was expressed was the dislike for getting up early on Saturday mornings to race in cold, rainy weather. But. to contradict this, junior crcwio Jessica Bartce said: The sensation of winning (a race) is comparable only to that of eating a York Peppermint Patty. Get the sensation!

Anna Nelson shows that there is more to crew than just rowing. Running Away With It The 1987-88 boys’ track team consisted of many members who worked hard to create a successful season. They ran several miles a day, five days a week to achieve their highest goal, to be an awesome outdoor track team. Donny Hardy said of the boys, “Hard work is the key to success. I say ‘No sacrifice, no pain’.” Meets were usually held Wednesday evenings and early Saturday mornings. W-L had new success in its spring sports program, and an unusually large, skilled team. As ('olden Pratt said, “This track team has come a long way to get where it is and I feel with hard practice and dedication we can get even further.” — copy by Su'� n Alilridicr Layout by Maria Kaki-r Malt Whittles competes in the boys'-I by 220 relay on the W-L track.

Jaci Gilfillan and Colby Schaefer work on their endurance by jumping rope in practice. Pride Lasts Longer Than The Pain “Go! Go! Go!” and “no pain no gain were words often heard on the 1987-88 girls’ track team. These words were often practiced, too. The lady generals practiced five days a week with 1-2 mile warmups, dozens of 100 meter and 200 meter sprints, and usually a mile warm down. The girls also jumped rope and lifted weights. Although it sounds like a heavy workout, the team practiced what they preached, no pain no gain, and they strived for the best. There was something else pretty special about the 87-88 girls outdoor track, it had more members than W-L’s track has had in years! Therefore. the squad had a lot of variety and talent to make a good team. As Working off nervous energy, Roxanne Clark keeps her feet moving before her turn to run. Colby Schaefer said of the team. I have been on this team for four years and this is the first season that I’ve seen so much dedication and motivation amongst its members. We had many qualified athletes who have worked together to make such a quality team. It’s a nice change! The girls track team had another beneficial change, a new coach. Coach Eric Hill. .Mr. Hill helped the lady generals reach their fullest potential. This year was Mr. Hill’s first year coaching girls track. As Mr. Hill spoke of the team, We have the largest team in years and were looking to finish in the top 3 in the district and to qualify several members for the state meet.” Because of a large team, a new coach, and the right attitude, the W-L Generals overcame the pain and outlived the glory. copy by Su� an Aldridrr Layout by Maria Baker Outdoor Track j.

For the seniors, this year brings graduation and the start of something new at college or in the job market; for other students it brings the promise of change in upcoming year's courses, requirements, and rules. Ms. Peggy Jeens, who has been teaching at W-L for 21 years, proudly comments that This school has faced optimistically the changing pattern of enrollment. W-L's attitude is one of positively welcoming students from all over the world and constructively helping them integrate into the community. And this year's students lived up to that positive reputation. They challenged themselves academically, they got involved in clubs and activities, and they supported and general's sports teams. Faculty and students continued to strive for something better as social studies students celebrated the 200th year of the Constitution, students started new clubs for minority awareness, and hoards of basketball fans packed the General's side of the gym to cheer on their team with enthusiasm not surpassed in recent years. These were just a few of the things that were a big part of w-L and helped to make it MORE than words can say in 1988. — Mini BMcr P oncluftion I i vidor Sophomore Casey Couvalt plays into the hands of the photographer while her classmate Lori Dolby expresses her fondness for the w-L school lunch.
