Introduction 3 Wide eyes, nervous smiles, sprinting to an unknown class, the beginning for some, the end for others, yet for all the embarkment of a nine month saga: the 1984-85 school year began. Everything seemed to be the same. Few changes in personnel had occurred, but something had been altered. The difference could be by no means pinpointed. It seemed to be though that excitement flashed in the air and students appeared ready for it. Anyone could easily see that things were not the same as new band director John Huffman led the marching band onto the field. Dance steps, good moves, and great music compelled Tiger fans to standing ovations: a sight new sight to band members. The band's excellence soon became the highlight of Friday evenings. The concert band also matched the change and electrified listeners. The National Honor Society benefitted many in these nine months. Members provided coat checks at all home basketball games. The High Honors lunches every six weeks also kept members busy. The Society pleased a number with their Christmas caroling abilities. Tapping new members highlighted the year for a group who got in- Sophomore Keith Dean. On Project Day, freshmen Stephanie McCray and Robin Hughes wait in line to sample the variety of Spanish foods.

Introduction 5 volved and helped to generate greater excitement. In September Principal David Surrey entertained each class with the annual orientation assemblies. The do's and don'ts were very completely explained. Pep assemblies took on a new look as excitement from the student body kept spirits high. The Holiday assemblies turned out to be better than normal; the Christmas assembly especially noted. The Air Force Band returned to entertain the student body, while Student Council members and Class Officers took a number and stood behind the curtain. Each awaited the dreaded time when throngs of people would bid on them. Student Auction Day assembly provided excitement and a change of pace to the normal school day. The Drama Club thespians brought The Wizard of Oz to the stage. Homecoming excitement started with the annual parade and float building contests. Renee Fleser received the honor of being crowned Homecoming queen. Students gathered at the Homecoming Dance to cut Footloose. Prom proved that the Tender Years were indeed important. Each took their loved one by the hand and danced at the formal social event of the year. It was an obscure, although normal start to a hope-filled and exciting year. As the days passed on, students rose to academic ana athletic challenges. Success may not have teen found though in each path followed or at each door nocked upon. Students added to the year a special flair by reaching deep within themselves and finding that making excitement provided the best ingredient for a memorable, fun-filled year. Performing at a home basketball game, junior Daphne Helton dances with the rest of the Pom Pon girls. Sporting the white glove and ghetto blasters, Pom-Pon girls Rhonda Helton, Diana Barch, and Missi Bigler dance to the new sound of the band.

When I realized that the banks closing included mine, I was scared! I thought I was going loose my life savings. After the bank reopened. I didn’t know whether to leave my money in or take it out and deposit it somewhere else. ___________Fire Drill______________ Nikki Tuttle said, I liked the drill because I didn't have to face going back to class. Mike Thacker said. “I thought it was a terrific time to have a fire drill. Bernhard Goetz Ferdie Marquez said, 1 think he had the right to protect himself, but not to such drastic measures. He should be sentenced. If he weren't, everyone would carry around loaded guns. Right to Read__________ During Right to Read week, library students read to primary students in the three city elementary schools. John Thornsberry reads to students at West.Teri Hampton said, I thought the idea was unique.” On Parents' Night I think having Parents' Night is a worthwhile event because it is important to recognize every player or participant involved instead of just the starting line-up, said senior Lisa Halcomb. New Coaches_____________ Senior Mike Gragg said, They tell you what they expect and they expect you to do it. Nothing unreasonable, just simple rules. If the guys coming up do what they are taught, the coaches will have a winning season Senior Mark Rockwell said, They know what they are talking about. They expect 100% on every play. Thev will have a winning program in a few years.” 14 Opinions Rosenberger Results Galen Dixon said, It was unexpected He seemed to know what he was talking about and he played it smart with the people by bringing up the fact that Beven's brother was also in office. Opinions are just like feet, everyone has them; some just carry more weight than others. Ask one question, get a million opinions. It goes on and on. Several opinions fly through the halls of the school. If you wondered how so many students acquired bronzed bodies by as early as March, chances are, they visited one of the six tanning salons. Senior Debbie McKnight said, 1 want to really be dark for Prom. Whatever the reason for going, the price is another obstacle. The appointments are $4 per session or $35 for twelve sessions. As of April 15, 1985, twenty-two million dollars had been made for USA for Africa from Lionel Richie's song, We Are the World. On Good Friday, radio stations all over the world simultaneously played the song at 10:50. I really liked the song and the purpose behind the whole idea only increased it’s popularity, said senior Karen Fryling. Are you trivial? What's the name of Pinochio's father? How many dimples does a golf ball have? An avid Trivial Pursuit player would easily be able to answer these questions, but mosl haven'I the slightest idea. Sophomore Donna Brinson said, The game is okay, but it makes me feel dumb and my dad always wins. Beat it, Michael Jackson, here comes the Boss. Music lovers opted for Bruce Springsteen and his Born in the USA album over the white gloved Jackson. Madonna skyrocketed to the top of the charts with Like A Virgin and appeared and sang in Vision Quest, plus successfully played a major role in Desperately Seeking Susan. Lionel Richie stayed popular as Prince gained popularity with Purple Rain. Cyndi Lauper and Tina Turner reigned as the two most outstanding female artists. The Cosby Show ranked as being very popular among students, as did MacGruder and Loud and Knots Landing. The nighttime soaps Dynasty and Falcon Crest still maintain a high viewer percentage. Favorite actors were Harrison Ford and Eddie Murphy; favorite actresses were Linda Evans, Joan Collins and Molly Ringwald. Is Waverly suddenly becoming a center of economic growth? The business boom has struck the city. Waverly has become a collage of fast food restaurants and convenient marts. I like all the different places to go. I now have more places to spend money, said freshman Brad Welsh. As time progresses and tastes change, so will the multitudes of opinions. But isn't this change an advancement? As man's technology increases and his horizons broaden, so must his opinions and views on a variety of areas. Without this change, man would regress with increasing time and remain unsuccessful and dormant to his surroundings. ★ Copy and page design by Nancy Brown Political Campaign Robert Hunt said, I'm not much into political campaigning, but it was very interesting and 1 lear ned something. Pam Hager ’said, I thought it was wild. Politics isn't totally boring. Jeff Tackett said, I had a good time throwing confetti down on the people. Prayer in Schools Senior Carrie Baker said, Because there are so many different denominations, we should either have a different religious representative for each prayer session or have a designated time for silent prayer. Senior Nancy Brown said, To me, praying is personal. For school purposes, I think the opportunity for silent prayer would be best, then those that want to pray can and no one is being forced to do anything nor denied anything. Opinions Hobb s Resignation Senior Brad Breitenbach said. The basketball season didn’t seem as exciting as the year before. I had this strange feeling that something was up. His resignation hurt the players and especially me; he was like a father to me. Maybe it was for the best, but I know we will all miss him. ______Snow Days___________ Freshman James Lambert said. I liked all the snow because I got to stay home. And I didn't have to wait on the bus twenty minutes. Band Directors Field Commander Pat Chandler said. Mr. Huffman was different - a disciplinarian, extremist. He knows what he is doing and he can do it right. Blood Donation Forty-nine students gave blood to the Red Cross. Tony Noel said. ”1 though it was very well conducted and a lot less painful than everyone thought.” Opinions _______Senior Costs___________ Senior Julie Smith said. Ny senior year has been very costly. I ve spent SI75 on pictures, cap and gown, and announcements. These things are necessary for a senior to go out in style, but it seems like you have to pay to graduate. _________Favorites_________ Song Can 't Fight This Feeling Chicago Movie Beverly Hills Cop Rock Band Van Halen Video California Girls T.V. Show Cosby Show Actor Eddie Murphy Actresses Molly Ringwald, Linda Evans Vocalist Lionel Richie Football Aerobics Jason Tackett said, The teacher gave us good incentive and we actually learned a few things. Overall, it was a fun experience. Especially, watching Mark King bounce. _______Senior Costs Brad Gecowets said, The prices we've had to pay for pictures, announcements and caps and gowns are just too high. I think it's just a way for these companies to make a lot of money by overcharging us for things we have to have. College Panel Amy George said, 1 thought it was interesting and it let me know what college life is really like. Vicki Lawson said. 1 liked it because I knew the students and they could answer more personal questions. Lori Brown said, I liked it because you got a more personal view from actual students, and not opinions from the college faculty. New Desks__________ New desks are purchased according to need. On a yearly average, 60 to 90 desks are purchased for the whole school district. Junior D.J. Owens said, I'll do anything to get out of study hall. Opinions 17 Powder Puff Junior Niki Yinger said. I think the coaches need to be patient with us and watch their language. Senior Marci Perry said, I thought it was great because 1 like football and our class won two years in row.

Just say these four words and students V • - envision things they like to do. Time spent on their own. f ,; Jobs claimed a major portion of out of school time for I most students. Fast food restaurants supported many, but -A. others worked at such places as Long's Retreat, the Pike County Swim Club, and the YMCA. Along with providing the necessary money, these jobs gave students both job experience and satisfaction. Many students owned memberships in clubs such as Boy and Girl Scouts, Rainbow Girls, 4-H clubs, and church youth groups. New friendships were cultivated and new skills were learned. Students also completed projects in these clubs, proving that the clubs were not all just fun and games. Some found activities they enjoyed doing alone. Fishing and hunting were popular, but many found it relaxing just listening to music. Other alone activities included sewing, building things, relaxing in the sun, and taking walks in the woods. During the winter, sled riding and snowball fights took up students’ free time. Most relished the snow which gave them 10 more school-free days than expected. As spring rolled around students found that garden work and repairs around the house could take up a good portion of their free time. Lawns needed mowed, gardens needed planted, houses needed painted, and hedges needed trimmed. A little extra time was always found though to play football, wash cars, or just plain lay out. Collections of baseball cards, stamps, buttons, and rubber balls claimed the time of some. A few rare items could always be found and the upkeep of the collections was constant. Some pursued such activities as learning to play the banjo, performing karate, and riding horses in horse shows. Students found that taking part in something they enjoyed was both rich and rewarding. Although from a wide range, these activities provided students with a way to spend time spent on their own. Elizabeth Fish SENIOR MIKE DIENBR performs with the marching band at the Waverly Cemetry.

ONE OF THE MOST dangerous jobs was braved by senior Julie Smith during the We Are the World Weekend car wash. 'We Are the World Weekend It may have started with the song and maybe not, but the We Are The World Weekend was special. When the senior class decided on the record's title for their motto, they realized it was impossible to ignore the purpose. Mr. Jerry O'Bannion, senior class advisor, established his room as the idea center. Ideas were kicked around until a weekend began to take shape; a dance held on Friday, followed by a car wash Saturday, and wrapped up with a Sunday soft-ball game. All the proceeds went to the Pike County Outreach and the African Relief Fund. When it was all over, 600 dollars had been raised and were ready to go to a good cause.

Reverend Mark Pfeifer, who graduated from Waverly in 1982, spoke at the Easter assembly. A hush fell over the crowd as Mr. Pfeifer spoke of the crucifixion of Christ.

Page Designed by Maggie Pritchard Copy by Mike Diener Palms sweated, stomachs tightened, and the tension rose as the clock slowly counted down the final seconds 5....4....3....2....1....0. The members quickly got into place as the football players left the field. At field commander Charlie Chandler's call, the band snapped into attention. The tempo for Footloose was given, and in a burst of excitement, the band exploded on to the Piketon football field to perform its first halftime show of the season. To give the band a new look and sound, John and Brenda Huffman were hired. Two-a-day practices began the second week in August. They lasted from 8:00 a.m. to 12 noon, and from 6:00 to p.m. Before the first game, anticipation not only arose in the band members, but also in the citizens. The crowd found out. It was something great! The first show began with the hit song Footloose. Members of the band pinwheeled across the field to standing position to perform the hit by Lionel Richie, Hello. After that, anything went as the band played and boogied to Van Halen's Jump. The first show didn't go exactly error-free (in fact, many mistakes were made), but the crowd didn't mind. All that mattered was that the band was trying something new, and it was working. The biggest disappointment of Marching Band 32 Marching Band SOPHOMORE Beth Williams plays the baritone.

Members stomped off the field in anger and disappointment. The band made arrangements to perform after the game, but it seemed as though it wouldn't be the same. This proved to be bad judgement because three-fourths of the crowd remained in their seats, rising to give a standing ovation at the completion of the show. As the season progressed, pride ran high in the band, the high school, and Waverly. For the first time in many years, crowds actually stayed in their seats during halftime and after the ballgame to wait for the post game show. The band danced at pep rallies, and earned a third place trophy at the Jackson Apple Festival. The band also marched in the 1984 Halloween Parade and in the Ohio University Homecoming Parade. After marching season Band Boosters organized a fundraising drive to raise money to purchase new uniforms. The uniforms will add the finishing touches to a revitalized band. They had conquered tension and frustration, learned a new marching style, and memorized music to march proudly with the new directors; ★ RETURNING FROM THE downtown march in the Homecoming Parade are senior Mike Diener, sophomores Beth Baer and Kathy Helman, and freshman Clark Goble.

Piketon hosts festival Copy by Elizabeth Fish Page Designed by Maggie Pritchard After marching off the field at the close of the last football game, the Marching Band retreated indoors, only to re-emerge as the Concert Band. The Concert Band made their debut, along with the newly formed Chorus at a mid-December Christmas Concert. The music was well-rehearsed, the sound was great, and the audience was impressed. said Maggie Pritchard. As soon as students came back from Christmas break, they were handed new music and work began on the 1985 Spring Concert. Students took music home and worked hard during the 7th period band class to make sure the March concert would be a success. All the fine tuning paid off, as the band produced another enjoyable evening. The last official concert for the band was the Pike County Music Fest '85. The band traveled to Piketon for an all-day rehearsal with the other county bands. The work was all worthwhile, though. When the curtain opened two days later, the County Band, under the direction of Ronald Socciarelli from Ohio University, was a hit. The Concert Band had a very successful year. They proved that they could make music-not just noise.

As numbers were called out, groans could be heard and seconds later the movement of the curtains behind the podium announced the arrival of a new slave.'1 As usual Class Officers and Student Council members donned grey sweatshirts and allowed themselves to be auctioned before the entire student body. The unusual part of The Sale of the Century was that instead of allowing everyone to see who was being auctioned, slaves nid behind the curtain and kept the students in suspense until they appeared to be sold. As in the past two years, professional auctioneer Mr. Warnie Pfeifer received the job of auctioning the slaves. Throughout the assembly, three boxes on the stage kept everyone wondering. Later it was announced that the prizes for the top three bidders were hidden behind these boxes. Chris Pfeifer and Jenni Walters had the highest bids for Anita Pfeifer and Amy Thompson, and therefore won the prizes. Although not as much money was made, only $257.36, Student Auction Day provided not only excitement, but also a good excuse to get out of class.

OOtlcOSQ Students spent much of their time the days before the Friday night game constructing floats, which they hoped would bring prestige to their class. The seniors, who captured first place honors, built their float in the Armour Barn, while Klinker's Barn was the junior float-building site. Beekman's Barn hosted the sophomores and the freshmen worked in the cramped quarters of Fleser's garage. At 2:30 the dismissal bell rang and most students directed their attention towards the senior float for two reasons. One, the verbal pride expressed by the seniors all week and two, the news of the float having been sabotaged less than 24 hours before the parade. Principal David Surrey allowed members of the senior class to make repairs and offered to pay for needed supplies. Also he allowed other underclass members to make adjustments on the floats which fell apart on the ride to the parking lot. During pregame activities, the floats, attendants, and queen candidates paraded around the track. The winning float was announced, but complaints echoed throughout the stands when the second, third, and fourth place float announcement never came. As halftime ceremonies approached, tension mounted. When 1983 Queen Debbie Chaney Saunders placed the crown on Renee Fleser's head, screams and sighs could be WAITING FOR THE REST of the attendants to be introduced, senior attendant Lori Brown and escort Scott Lallier wait on the Queen's podium.

On Saturday morning, Student Council members undertook the task of decorating the West Elementary gymnasium. Using the theme Footloose, Student Council worked to create an effect similar to that of the movie. Amid brightly colored balloons, multicolored streamers, and metallic wall coverings, students danced to the music played by 92X D.J., Kevin Haines. Student Council provided refreshments for the hundreds of people crammed into the hot gym. With the conclusion of the dance at 12:00, Homecoming Week came to an end, except for dance clean up.

Drama Club presents The Wizard of Oz The thing I remember most is Amy Thompson jumping out in a lion costume and growling! said Jenni Walters. In October auditions took place for the Drama Club's production of The Wizard of Oz. Instead of being named to certain characters, students tried out for specific characters. A requirement during tryouts was that students trying out for the lead roles had to sing The Star Spangled Banner. From November to February practices took place once a week for the four main characters, but in March practices began for everybody. The last four weeks before the three preformances, the entire cast practices every night. New sets were constructed for the production and costumes for the characters were handmade. Along with the traditional characters in The Wizard of Oz, many new characters made a debut. Perhaps the best remembered were the jitterbugs who tried to dance Dorothy and her friends to death. Two hillbilly witches showed up along with the wicked witch of the west, and a line of commanding generals also made and appearance. We've all worked really hard to pull this together. said Miss Molly Gleissner, the Drama Club Advisor. I'm very proud of all the cast and crew members!

The juniors nd seniors can always hope to have one night to remember as their lives go on; Prom '85 provided that night. Whether it was the dancing, the dress or tux, or the after-prom, Prom '85 was a special night of nights, one to be treasured forever. Beginning the Monday before the extravaganza, juniors began the task of decorating the new gym. Under the supervision of Mrs. Nancy Voorhes, the gym soon became a purple and silver balloon wonderland. In less than one week, the juniors put in many hours to turn the gym into a ballroom look alike. The stage was set. The preprom festivities included dinner at a nice restaurant for many. Getting prepared for the big night became one of the many highlights of the evening. Picture taking at the home of parents and or grandparents often sent Prom goers on their way to the annual May event. Weeks of preparation came to a close as students arrived at the Prom. One of the first orders of business was taking color pictures. Yearbook adviser Mrs. Janet Roberts was the photographer. From that point Prom goers shuffled onto the dancefloor and danced to the music provided by disc jockey Kevin Haines from 92-x fm. The food was served by members of the sophomore class. The evening went smoothly and quickly; it was over seemingly after that night had just started. Tender Years Prom '85 became a tender ending to an exciting year. Although the rain began to pour at midnight, the moisture did not dampen the prom goers evening. The After-Prom became a big hit as many came to dance to the sounds of another live disc jockey. Food donated by area businesses was consumed. It ended at 4:00 a.m. and the end came quickly. When 4:00 a.m. rolled around, most made their way home. Yet, others went to eat. Either way they went, Prom goers woke with memories. Tender Years Prom '85 had been another night that made excitement.

Speeches In Meditation XVII, John Donne stated,'Each man s death diminishes me, for 1 am involved in mankind.' Fellow graduates, I challenge you to employ this philosophy in your personal lives. We chose as our motto the song, We Are The World, and it is now up to us to produce a profitable effect from our own concern. Such an effect is accomplished by involving oneself in the plight of his fellow man in a spirit of compassion and altruism. Each of us in this auditorium tonight must make the decision to either better his world or to alienate himself from his fellow man and this allows the world to further deteriorate into chaos in accordance with Nature's laws of entropy. By individually and collectively taking the initiative to transcend apathy and neutrality, we take the first step toward Utopia. As a group, we have shown our concern for our fellow man. Many of us have chosen careers which reflect this concern. We are the future teachers. We are the future Lawyers. We are the future social workers. We are the future doctors. We are the future nurses. We are the future... We Are The World! —Excerpts— Throughout our school career, we have struggled to be unique-to achieve outstanding feats in numerous academic and athletic areas. The accomplishments of this year alone, such as fundraising, drama, and scholarships, have proved the tremendous capabilities of our student body and they stand as precedents for the upcoming classes. All of these acheivements could not have been attained had we not first upheld certain values and beliefs. These strong values have been the pulse of our class and have allowed us to reach our goals. This year alone we have shown that we care for others, when we tried in our own way to help humanity. Upon looking into the future, we must first take a look back into the past. We reflect upon the good times, the hardships, the successes, and the failures, all with a sense of pride and humility. We also realize that the values which have shaped us did not originate with us, but rather they have been handed down to us and we honor those who have preserved these values for us. We must, therefore, thank our teachers, coaches, ministers, friends, and most of all, our parents, for they indeed, built the foundation for our high goals and our values. If we can take the future as as brand-new challenge that we can meet with confidence and hope, we can listen to those who advise us and then judge for ourselves just what is right. The decisions that are made will be the ones that determine how our environment changes for the better or worse. We need to keep in touch with all about us and settle differences without a fight and still be able to find delight in simple pleasures and see the rainbow-not the falling rain. If we can faithfully stick by our convictions and not let others set our goals for us, we can be as practical as need be and still remember sometimes dreams come true. We need to understand our limitations and not waste time on tasks beyond our scope. We should take pride in things that we have accomplished and when we are wrong, stand up and take the blame. If we can live our life that we believe in and trust our judgement and maturity, then we will be, not just happy and successful!, but the worthwhile people we are meant to be. For we are the world with all the joy and responsibility that that phrase implies.

The ending - the beginning - the finale of twelve years of education made its entrance. One hundred twenty-four members marched into the Physical Education Facility displaying their black and white gowns. They received diplomas, and marched out. The ceremony lasted under two hours, but had taken months to create. Graduation preparations began in November. Announcements were ordered, measurements for robes taken, and ideas for the class symbols begun circulating. Oddly enough, these ideas stopped circulating very rapidly. When the deadline for the symbols arrived, nothing had been decided. In a quick, impromptu meeting, the class officers decided on midnight blue and white for the colors, and dared to be different by selecting the daisy as the class flower. The officers chose We Are the World as the motto. This decision, made in less than five minutes grew into a theme for which the class did truly stand. The ceremony began at seven o'clock on June 5. From the moment the seniors started through the door, it was as if each second was leading up to one very special moment. Pastor Eugene Young gave the Invocation, Student Council President Renee Fleser welcomed classmates and guests. For the final time band members (seniors) played Still with the band. The battle for the top that ensued between Justine Napier and Brad Pendell came to a close in the most appropriate way - a tie.

The joy and sorrow of the wonderfully involved year flashed as memories - a new sports program, a new band, the precedent setting 'Hamlet, cheerleaders who were national finalists, the We Are the World Weekend. Seniors had a part in each of these events, and they were proud. This attitude prevailed until the microphone failed to work for Class President Mel Stahler's Farewell Address. When attempts to use the microphone failed, he undauntedly continued with his emotional and grateful remarks. Mr. Thomas Ray Smith offered the Benediction and the band played the Recessional.

Graduation 59 Each year sports have grabbed headlines while academics and other activities have taken a back seat. This year the three pulled to a near even. The Mock Election became an instant smash. Flying confetti, a talking donkey, presidential speeches and political mayhem generated the excitement. The Science Club sponsored the annual city science fair while Future Homemakers raised funds for Childrens Hospital, aided senior citizens and helped the School for Child Advancement. French and Spanish Clubs sponsored a Cabaret. The Literary Club dared to bring Shakespeare to the stage. Hamlet appear with huge success. Between the Lines, the Lit Club's biannual magazine, also turned out to be a hit. Vocational School students kept their regular routine for a morning awards assembly followed by the annual Fun Day events. The year of effort found the spoils as the annual awards assembly assured students of ad ministration and community appreciation. Students, faculty and administration alike found academic events could indeed by exciting and rewarding. Striving for excellence and REACHING THE TOP were synonymous with academics. Students strived to be the best and competition grew fierce as the year passed. As the top position finally came within reach and became attainable, students knew that REACHING THE TOP was one of the greatest feelings in the world and that all the work had finally paid off.

The Honor Society started the year's festivities with the second annual pumpkin cutting contest. Advisor Mr. Richard Craumer judged the contest and captured his second title. The Society kept busy each six weeks by sponsoring the High Honors lunch. The NHS found a good service project as a big money maker. By providing coat checks at all home basketball games, the Honor Society earned much more money than expected. This money went towards the Induction Ceremony in the Spring. The Christmas Season saw the fusion of new and old. The Society tried their hand at caroling and then congregated at Mr. Craumer's house to watch A Christmas Carol. The NHS also went for their annual educational shopping trip for a taste of Christmas. The year wound down to the annual Induction Ceremony. Twenty-one Juniors and one Senior were tapped into a new stage of their high school careers; the time when they must set an example for all to follow. The year ended with the annual honors field trip to Pike Lake on May 17th. Students who made the high honors list three out of five times had the opportunity to go. In all 66 people went. Students played volleyball, fished, and hiked in the rainy ana 50 degree weather. Although jackets and sweatshirts were necessary, the day proved to be a good excuse for students to spend a day just goofing off.

Not only students but also leaders were honored. At the annual Awards Assembly, scholarships and academic excellence awards recognized those who had achieved the high standards set by both the school and themselves. These students were not the only ones honored. At the end of the assembly Principal David Surrey recognized retiring teachers - Mr. Raymond Burton, Mrs. Nelvia Hunt and Mr. Orval Arnett. They received a standing ovation from the student body. At the seventh annual Honors Banquet, sponsored by the Board of Education, Superintendent David E. Roberts received a plaque for his outstanding leadership. Another change from previous years was that not only the top student in each class was honored, but also students who earned high honors status five out of six reporting sessions as well. Six students got Honorable Mention in State Division II on the Ohio Test of Scholastic Achievement. They are as follows: Tracy Dixon-English 9, Paula Teeters-English 9, Cornell Robertson-First Year Algebra, Marie Moraleja-English 10, Jevon Jackson-First Year Spanish, Mike Good-Second Year Spanish.

French Spanish clubs sponsor Cabaret Page Designed by Gary Ferguson Copy by Elizabeth Fish I was really proud of how hard the kids worked ' said Miss Molly Gleissner. One of the biggest memories of the Spanish and French Club's May Cabaret was the stairs! Said Maitre d' Tim McAllister, The hardest part for the waiters and waitresses was having to go up and down the steps to turn the orders in, the taking the drinks up, and coming back down to get the food. Then going back up to collect the money! Instead of cooking all the food during the afternoon hours of 1:00 to 4:00, both the French and Spanish students sold tickets to pay for the cost of buying food. This saved time and money as people didn't have to wait on all the food to be cooked and no food had to be purchased during the afternoon. The Cabaret took place on either balcony of the new gym. Both clubs decorated the sides with streamers, candles, and balloons. Spanish and French music could be heard, which helped create genuine atmosphere of a Spanish nightclub. I was really proud of how hard the kids worked. said Miss Molly Gleissner. We didn't have that many people, but we had a really good time!

Cabaret 73 Copy by Elizabeth Fish Page Design by Donna Brinson French______________________________________ I try to teach the kids not just to speak French. said Miss Molly Gleissner. I want them to try to accept other cultures and be open-minded about them. The ways Miss Gleissner did this were by encouraging students to write to French speaking pen pals, reading articles about French opinions of Americans, and cooking French food. We will be going to see The Three Musketeers and also we will try to make some French crafts. The French classes painted a street scene from France on the wall. French I learned grammar and were asked questions about their homes in French, while French II studied astrology, also in French. French III read articles from newspapers from France and the four students in French IV read short stories. Spanish_____________________________________ Habla usted espanol?

Languages 75 Literary Club presents HAMLET I thought the play was well produced, directed, and acted. I was impressed with the student's understanding of Shakespeare. said Justine Napier. Early March saw the newly formed Literary Club starting on their journey. Every night practices seemed to run over time, often close to 11:00 p.m. Though with less than one month of practice, the club managed to put together Shakespeare's 'Hamlet. I would've liked it better if I would’ve understood the language. The largest stumbling block may will have been the Old English language. The Lit Club actors used the same language that Shakespeare did: word for word. Mel Stahler claimed Trying to comprehend the true meaning of Shakespeare was tough enough without the language barrier. Yet, with the help of advisors Mr. Jerry O'Bannion, Mr. Paul Moore, and Mr. Steve Thomas the cast got the help they needed. Hamlet did not sum up all of the Literary Club's successes. The Club delved into another new area: a literary magazine. Between the Lines became the high school's first all student literary magazine. Months of hard work by the editors and staff members, along with the help from the advisors, payed off by the fact that the magazines sold like hotcakes. The year became a year of excitement for the Literary Club. The Literary Club set a new standard; one much higher than the normal high school mark. Excellence must go to loftier levels to even touch the Club’s record. About the year Mr. O'Bannion said, We made history!

I recommend it for everyone. A person's citizenship should be revoked if English is not taken! Mr. O'Bannion said the added study of Western literature in the English literature course was a survey of Classical Greek writings to the 20th century writings. A departmental goal of the English department is to incorporate more composition and public speaking into our courses. Our goal is to present a 'world view' of various authors. In a rapidly changing world our Engligh department should help students develop the ability to make intelligent decisions for coping with the world around them. stated Mr. Steven Thomas. In addition to Mr. O'Bannion and Mr. Thomas, Mr. Paul Moore, Miss Molly Gleissmer and Mr. Francis Bayes also taught English. Mr. O'Bannion taught Reading and Speech and Mr. Moore taught Advanced Composition. DRESSED AS Huckleberry Finn, freshman Lonnie Murray works in study hall.

Physics class set up pulley systems in a lab on simple machines and Mr. Craumer noted Renee Fleser as being all thumbs. We have between 15 and 20 labs during the year. Mike Diener generated the most power while running up stairs, thus he was Physics Power Pursuer Champ. Mr. Craumer bought Mike a shirt as a reward of his great feat. At the end of the year, Physics and Advanced Math classes traveled to Pizza Hut for lunch. Mr. Dick Craumer enjoyed explaining movies he saw to the freshman class. He enlightened them with a summary of 2010. The next day Vance Markham drew a picture of Mr. Craumer on another planet in a space suit with an American Flag. Anita Pfeifer said, The chapter on atoms was the only chapter I listened in. The class also studied radiation and learned why it is damaging to the human body. Mr. Craumer made his own pendulum which was hung from the ceiling. The class watched filmstrips and did an Air Pressure Experiment in which Mr. Craumer placed a card over a glass of water and turned the glass upside down. Little did he know that the water would come gushing out all over him. I think everything we do is interesting, Mr. Ray Burton stated. I don't know whether the kids think it is interesting, but I do. Mr. Burton said that his class lightly touches all the areas of science offered in the school. For a few months the class makes weather predictions using the barometer, hydrometer and Geiger counter. Other chapters included magnetism, human anatomy and biology. In the biology chapter, the class made drawins of the paramecium and euglena; the drawings were displayed in the room. Students received extra credit for drawings and also for well-kept notes. • Biology I and II students experienced the same information in different ways. While both classes performed lab experiments each in different depth. Current Events Days, every Friday, was a first semester requirement for Biology II. This was followed by a disease notebook covering 30 or 35 bacterial diseases. One hundred forty four new displays were purchased this year. Mr. Dan Roar said he has displayed three of the five ver-tabrate classes. Among the specimens are two baby squirrels brought by David Strickland, a garter snakes, compliments of Mr. Francis Bayes, a tarantula, several chameleons, and dozens of Angora mice. Coach Roar sponsored the new Science Club. The group had several guest speakers at their evening meetings. Sarah Chap-mena served as president, Ferdie Marquez as vice president, Jeff Davis as treasurer, and Beth Williams served as repor-ter secretary. FRESHMAN Keri Plunk questions Mr. Richard Craumer's explanation of the periodic table. WORM DISSECTION is the first lab of the year. Tami Lewis and Tina Holsinger begin to dissect.

Of course, we used the boxes to make pin hole cameras, so nothing was wasted.” Students in Photography Classes along with learning to take and develop pictures, also learned to draw and design layouts. We had photo games to help my kiddies learn apertures and depth of field, said Mrs. Janet Roberts. Tests were not one of the favorite parts of photography class. In May students took and developed color slides for a multi-media presentation. Later the class spent time on mini-field trips to learn to use filters and to shoot nature negatives. Industrial Arts----------------------------- It's an all right class. You learn about what tools to use for what jobs and the process of putting it all together. D.J. Owens stated. During the course of the year, students worked with metals and wood and an assignment included designing their own project. This elective course was taught by Mr. Fred Bauman. Vis I have a good group this year. stated Mrs. Janet Roberts. It is small, but good! Graphic Arts was primarily a hands-on class. Students learned and worked with printing presses and design production. Said Susan Streitenberger, The whole atmosphere of the area-the music, the challenges, and the privilege to learn and work at your own pace-make this class exceptional.

When it was cut off, it felt like your head was going to be cut! said Art II student Dawn Lyon after volunteering to be wrapped in a body cast for a class project. Always an organized disaster best describes the art room, Mrs. Janet Roberts said. In Art I and II students completed projects of batiks, ceramics, paintings - oil and watercolor, handmade paper and body casts. A handmade paper entry by Freshman Bonnie Thompson earned acceptance for hanging in the Youth Art Month Display at the State Office Tower in Columbus. Special Programs---------------------------- Students enrolled in Developmental Handicapped and Learning Disabilities Classes received academic skills, life skill and occupational education.

It divides you from the rest of the senior class. said Tony Noel. Job training classes net second and third periods and were under the direction of Mrs. Sandy Smith. Photojournalism------------------------------ This is the first class who has ever had to do two books.'said Mrs. Janet Roberts. I think they are the best working group I’ve ever had. They are capable and fun to work with. Although the quarters were cramped, the 12 member photojournalism class managed to finish not only the 181 pages of the 1984 yearbook, but meet the deadlines of the 1985 book. Niki Yinger said, It is very hectic, especially before deadlines. Most people work, but some don't and that’s what gets us in trouble. Driver's Education--------------------------- At first we just outlined chapters, learned laws, and did things in the book, which was boring. Now we're driving, which is fun. But it can be scary though, like almost running into trees or down into ten foot ditches. said Kevin Smith. Offered second, third, and sixth periods, the class was taught by Mr. Rockie Natoli.

So, the drama that unfolded in 1984-85 seasons became the shape of the sporting memories precious to many. This made it exciting. Lifetime friends worked together and became local heroes. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat were lessons taught within a too short four year span. The Tigers did a lot of winning and losing. From football and basketball last second magic and heartbreakers, to Lane Patrick's journey of golfing excellence that ended at the State Competition. The Tigers rode an emotional high. The Lady Tigers fought through a disappointing regular season in basketball and surprised everyone at tournament time. Success found tne Lady Tigers in nearly every other path they followed. Each Tiger can be proud. Each fought until the final buzzer. Never give in: a motto that the Tigers seemed to embody almost every time they took to a field, court, or track. The Tigers proved the nice guy can win even if not on the scoreboard. It all started with the new running strategy of the football players. Volleyball players dove for spikes and cross country runners booked through 3.1 miles. Basketball players charged down the courts, while around the bases came the baseball and softball players. Tennis and track members ran on hard surfaces. Students found this year that RUNNING WILD described the sports seasons perfectly. Sports 107 SPIRIT Copy by Mel Stahler Page Design by Karen Fryling A new excitement, a time for fun: the new school year provided many with reasons to cheer. The cheerleaders took on a new look and all realized it was a changed squad. With the help of advisor Sandy Monroe and assistant Rogina Conroy, the cheerleaders put in many hours of strenous practice which even entailed two-a-day practices. At the regional competition in Waverly, the squad qualified for the Nationals. It was on to Atlants, Georgia. The cheerleaders hopped on the Atlanta bound bus with great expectations, but none expected what was to happen. On the first day of competition, the squad gave an inspired preformance to find themselves in fourth place for the second and final day of the Nationals. The squad secured a place as one of the seven best teams in the nation: quite an honor. The squad also produced spirit outside of their great competition excitement. The Spirit Chains were unrolled to find the freshmen nipping the seniors. The skit of cheerleaders portraying coaches brought laughter and cheers. Yet others contributed to the spirit move. ★ CHEERLEADERS DANCE to the SENIOR CHEERLEADER Teresa music played by the band during a Fordyce during a basketball game, football pep rally.

THE GAME Copy and Page Design by Mel Stahler winning era! Football forged into a new era; the Ed Bolin era. Coach Ed Bolin left a position at Glouster-Trimble with an impressive 33-15-3 record to take the reigns for the Tigers. He knew a difficult task lie ahead because of the Tiger's 15 consecutive losing seasons. His goal is to instill a winning attitude for Tiger football. per McClain as they rallied 80 yards to score the first points of the game. As the steady downpour continued Greenfield kept rolling as they churned up 278 total yards to Waverly's 102. Junior quarterback Ferie Marquez connected on three of four passes for 43 yards, but it turned out to be too little. McClain rang up 24 points, and kept injury plagued Waverly out of the endzone for a 24-0 shutout. Piketon The Tigers set the tempo for the opener early as an opening twelve play, 66 yard drive, capped off by a 14 yard scoring jaunt by senior tailback, Jeff Tackett. Yet, the 7-0 lead was shortlived. The Redstreaks returned the ensuing kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter a Piketon fumble turned into Jeff Tackett's second score as he plunged in from the two yard line. Waverly picked up a safety and Piketon watched as three scoring opportunities were lost to turnovers. The Tigers pulled out a 16-6 victory over the Redstreaks. Jackson One game out of a season can often stick in the minds of coaches, players, and fans alike long after the year ends. This game is certainly the winner. The Ironmen (2-1) jumped out to an early 7-0 lead with 74 yard punt return touchdown. Halftime held the same score. However, the Tigers (1-2) managed a little third quarter magic. Ferdie Marquez rolled to the left and threw a difficult pass to junior flanker Darren Paint Valley Waverly (1-0) opened with three plays and a punt. Paint Valley opened the scoring with a 30 yard field goal, and ended the first half's scoring with a 37 yard touchdown pass. The Bearcats enjoyed a 10-0 halftime lead. In the fourth quarter Jeff Tackett ripped off an incredible tacklebreaking 20 yard touchdown run to bring the Tigers within three. But, time ran out as Paint Valley managed a last second touchdown.

Sidwinding senior placekicker Tony Tackett iced a Tiger upset when his extra point attempt split the uprights to stun the Ironmen 15-14. Wheelersburg The Tigers (2-2) hoped to become the first team since 1969 to have a winning record at the midway point when Wheelersburg (2-2) came to town. Two Tiger turnovers found the Pirates twice in the endzone to gain a 14-0 first half advantage. But, with less than two minutes to go in the half Waverly engineered a beautifully executed 49 yard, six play scoring drive to end the half trailing 14-7. The second half belonged to Wheelersburg as the opportunistic Pirates turned back the upset minded Tigers 20-7. Minford Waverly (2-3) knows the feeling of losing a heartbreaker. The Tiger defense bent as the Minford (5-0) offense picked up 303 total yards, but Waverly did not break. The Tiger defense showed their strength with two outstanding goal line stands. Junior Punky Howard displayed the Tiger's big play defense when he rambled 41 yards on the return of a fumble for the First of his two touchdowns. The second came from Howard at fullback with 4:14 left in the game to close within one at 14-13. Coach Bolin gave the call to go for two; showing not only a commitment to victory but also sheer class. Ferdie Marquez threw to Darren Harris yet inches before victory landed in the hands of Harris, a Falcon defender knocked the ball away. The Tiger's dropped a nail biter 14-13. Portsmouth West The Tigers (24) entered the Homecoming game in hopes of refinding the victory road but ran into a truck from Portsmouth West (6-0). Coach Bolin inserted a new offense which helped Ferdie Marquez connect for 124 yards on eight passes; one was his third touchdown pass of the season.

Ironton Waverly (2-5) enters every Ironton (5-2) game knowing a tough opponent is to be faced. 1984 was no exception. Ferdie Marquez and Darren Harris hooked up for their third touchdown combination of the year and the only score. The Fighting Tigers from Ironton picked up an incredible 453 total yards and found the endzone seven times. Waverly was crushed 49-8. Northwest The Tigers (2-6) met the Northwest Mohawks (2-6) for the final SOC league game. The score was deadlocked until the 5:06 mark in the second quarter when a Northwest back scampered 41 yards for a touchdown. With 4:20 left in the game, tailback Darren Harris, who picked up 117 yards, cut the Mohawk lead to 7-6 when he scored on a one yard plunge. Yet, Northwest unleashed a 62 yard scoring pass to make it a 13-6 game. Time ran out on Waverly when a last minute drive was stopped at the Northwest 25. This was a game Waverly felt would be a victory, and Northwest became the first team with a losing record to defeat the Tigers all season. Waverly fell 13-7. Portsmouth East Waverly (2-7) entertained the Tartans from Portsmouth East on the season finale, but the Tartans did not find the evening entertaining. Darren Harris, who gained a Tiger season high 166 yards, set the tempo early when he burst of tackle and romped for an amazing 64 yards for an amazing tackle-eluding touchdown run. Scoring two of his three touchdowns in the third quarter, sophomore Tyler Osborne helped put the game out of reach. AT SENIOR NIGHT against Portsmouth East, First Team All District member Mark Rockwell escorts his mother. SHOWING THE FRUSTRATION dealt from the Greenfield McClain game, head coach Ed Bolin stares on in seeming disbelief. All-SOC selection senior Tracey Sword showcased his defensive excellence with an interception return of 46 yards that hit paydirt. Darren Harris electrified the crowd one last time with a 65 yard touchdown punt return that left the crowd awestruck. Senior fullback Mike Gragg rounded out the Tiger's scoring with a nine yard end zone jaunt. When it was over the Tigers had tallied 44 points on an amazing 460 total yards; all on the ground. The Tiger defense spearheaded by the marvelous play of All-District selection senior Mark Rockwell, allowed East just four total yards. Waverly overpowered Portsmouth East 44-6. The Tiger's 3-7 season mark was disappointing, but the signs of future excellence also appeared. Ferdie Marquez, Darren Harris, Tyler Osborne and sophomore tailback Jason Brown lead a list of names that will aid Coach Ed Bolin in the quest for a winning season. 1984 provided an abundance of exciting football, and it set the stage for years to come in the Bolin era, the era of winning football. ★ Football 119 Team earns fourth in Sectional Copy by Nancy Brown Page Design by Donna Brinson ------Lane Patrick plays in State Meet------------- Not only first in the school but first in Pike County!

Team support was tremendous, Lane said. Uniqueness definitely rated high as one of the main characteristics of the team. Dubbed by Coach William Pekkala as the fearsome foursome, Tony Noel, Roger Williams, John Moore, and Kendall Case served as the center of attraction. Speed golfing and the oriental tee-off prevailed as the cliche's main contributions. Coach Pekkala said, The team exerted its best effort in the Sectional Tournament.

Just ask any of the seven runners training under Coach John Boyer. The most common answers were similar to the one by sophomore Tim Manning, Run to get a good position in the beginning, slow to a steadier pace, and then sprint with whatever energy is left at the end. This philosophy apparently worked at most meets, especially for sophomore Jason Kelley and junior Jerry Miles. After striving for the finish line and attaining second place at the County Meet, timekeepers reported that Kelley had beaten Miles by just three seconds. ★ 122 Golf Cross Country WAITING FOR THE GUN to sound, the boys team prepares to run at the Waverly Invitational.

Page design and copy by Trish Howard Slip, slidin'-away! If there were ever three words to describe the Powder Puff game, those are it. It rained the day of the game leaving water and mud all over the field. Almost every play resulted in someone sliding across the field. By the end of the game, practically every player was caked with mud. It started out as flag football, but as usual, the fun began when the tackling and pile-ups started. All one could see was players doing flips and belly-smackers. It was great! The sweet little girls turned into rough, mud-covered football players that were thirsty for victory. It reminded one of Halloween when everyone's appearance and personality change. A few requirements created some difficulty for those forgetful people to get to practice before the game. All the girls had to bring a mouthpiece and a parental permission slip before the game coordinator, Mrs. Mary Gecowets, would allow them to play. Many of the girls forgot one thing or another therefore, fewer practiced at one time than played in the game. The referees, coaches, and other organizers were all volunteers. Using his witty and humorous personality, Mr. Francis Bayes entertained the crowd as the announcer. 124 Powder Puff DIKING THEIR PREGAME cheer the cheerleaders welcome everybody with their Hello” cheer.

More than 600 spectators showed up which meant the profit exceeded $600.00. The girls donated the money to the athletic fund. At the beginning of the game, most of the attention centered on the gorgeous cheerleaders. They worked hard and practiced to be gooo, but entertaining. Saturday, the entire day was used for choosing outfits, make-up, and hair styles. By the end of the game, all of their make up had run down their faces and their hair had fallen. But even in the disarrayed state, they remained beauties. The juniors and the freshmen started out in the first game. The juniors defeated the freshmen with a score of 6-0. Freshman half-back, quarterback Kacy Preble thought the team's offense lacked but the defense was good. The second game, rivaled the seniors and the sophomores. In a high scoring game the seniors defeated the sophomores by a score of 35-14. Sophomore running-back Marie Moraleja said, The senior offense was too much for us. Our defense just couldn't handle it. The final battle for all the marbles pitted the seniors against the juniors. The seniors scored first by using a double reverse play in which quarter-back Julie Smith handed off to Penny Burnett who in turn handed off to Judy Trimble. Judy took the ball in for the first and only touchdown. The juniors moved the ball to the ten yard line. They used a pitch pass play, in which quarter-back Catrina Crabtree pitched the ball to Trish Howard who passed to receiver Teresa Hoffman. Teresa dropped the ball and the time ran out. The seniors were victorious, this being the second year the Class of 1985 reigned as Powder Puff Champions. Senior Penny Burnett said, I think we won because we had experience, talent, and motivation. ★ 126 IN THE FINAL GAME, senior Penny Burnett drives forward with the ball while junior Lisa Good tries to stop her.

The Tigers always seemed just one step from excellence and maybe even greatness. The cagers under the guidance of Coach Will Hobbs, who finished his third year at the helm, were caught in numerous close games, overtime battles, and last second extravaganzas. Disappointments arise in nearly every season, and the Tigers felt their good share.

The final weekend saw on overtime loss to Mor-thwest and a double overtime loss to Southeastern. The Tigers knew well the pain of coming just short. The season was not one of all shortcomings. The Tigers often produced incredible exitement in winning fashion. Waverly began the season in a big way with a convincing victory over Chillicothe.

His cagers fought past the highly touted Greenfield team for most of the game yet, the game ended with a question and a McClain victory. Was the referee's call wrong?? It will be argued for years to come. But the important thing was the Tigers, who ended at 11-12, bent but never broke! They just kept coming at these teams.

Inexperienced team faces No rainouts! It all started on March 18. The running, conditioning exercises, and competition for positions. The season of Lady Tigers' softball had begun. Snow and freezing temperatures characterized the beginning of the season. Although warm weather prevailed, an unusual fact about the season was that not one of the games had to be cancelled due to rainy weather. Teamwork played a major role in the games. Teamwork plays, such as double plays and other heads up plays, made key differences in the outcome of many games. Inexperience and mental errors seemed to be the cause of game errors. A big break for the team was that every tournament game was played at home. The Tigers defeated Greenfield McClain and Washington Court House to advance to the Sectional Championship game against Vinton County. Although the team lost a hard fought game against the Vikings, the words of Coach Sheri Remy echoed through the minds of the players: We were definitely not losers. ★ Awards All-District Honors Suellen Ferguson, Tina Holsinger, Melissa Pendell All-League Honors Kim Graves SWINGING THE BAT, junior Kellie Clark looks to get a hit.

Some do it to look better and others do it to prepare for a sport. The year of lifting was headed by Coach Ed Bolin. The climax of the lifting year came at the annual lift-a-thon.

Over their last few years, the starting line-up has consisted mainly of girls. This year, Coach Becky Greenhaw kept only three out of the seven girls who tried out. The remaining seven players were boys, only one of which was a senior. That senior, Eric Browder, received the Most Valuable Player Award at the banquet. The Most Improved Award went to Braa Welsh, who switched with Alan Fish, Mark Diener and Carrie Baker. Two first year players composed the first doubles team. Sophomore Joe Miller and freshman Todd Brown combined efforts to end the season with a winning record. Seniors Renee Fleser and Nancy Brown completed the team at second doubles. Having one of the better team records, only behind senior Eric Browder, the duo received third year and fourth year varsity awards respectively.

One part of this complex structure became the essential element, the constant: people. For 177 days people worked side by side to eliminate the detrimental agents to success and to nourish the positive aspects of what turned out to be an excellent school year. Two new teachers entered the Waverly life and a new school psychologist walked the halls. The biggest irony of high school had become the freshmen's new start and the senior's end. Approximately 160 freshmen learned the high school way as 124 seniors went down to face the new world. For many school became the real world. Students, 647 strong, prepared for tomorrow's careers, and 32 full time teachers lived their's. Other career people included two guidance counselors, school psychologist, and seventeen non-certified members. Working in the central office were three administrators and two educational supervisors. As the school year ran on numbers, titles, and statistics changed, but one thing remained the same: people. All through life, steps are taken to move people from one stage in life to another. Freshmen took a big step by entering high school, while seniors climbed perhaps the greatest stop in their lifetime: graduation. Even as these steps are taken, one thing must be kept in mind: there is always ANOTHER STEP TO GO.

Members of this class have grown both physically and mentally since that first day in school. Often, the growth appears at homecoming float building sites. Tears of laughter fell when recalling the freshman float; a cardboard rocket with a pitiful football player tied on. Even then we knew the effort was not entirely successful. The sophomore year saw marked improvement, but unparalleled improvement shone the junior year. Brad Gecowets mastered the tigermaking art and helped capture a controversial tie for first place.

Contributions made by students, faculty, and administration numbered many in varying importance yet, an essential piece to the puzzle, the community often overlooked. The expenses for this NOVEL'S production totaled an enormous sum. However, area business contributed in offsetting the over $15,000 publication costs with advertising support. The school and community often joined for the betterment of both. Members of the community donated money and time to the athletic and band programs. These individuals also stayed active in fund raising, ticket selling, and provided security police for the games. Students also benefitted the community. A few donated time at the Pike County Hospital as candy stripers. Others boasted membership in the Explorers, Scouts, 4-H, or church groups, who performed service acts for the city. Through this cooperation both benefitted. In order to produce the 1985 NOVEL, staff members had to raise over $15,000 to cover the publication costs. Area businesses and patrons helped furnish most of this money through the advertising. These advertisers, worth their WEIGHT IN GOLD, were a very vital part in helping the staff publish NOVEL. 207 First Baptist Church The First Baptist Church is recognized as an active church in the Southern Baptist Convention. Opportunities for service are as follows: Sunday school at 9:45 am, Sunday morning worship at 11:00 Sunday evening worship at 7:30 and Wednesday evening service at 7:30 pm. The youth in the church are also active. They are in charge of the morning and evening services of one Sunday every other month. The youth have also participated in other activities. These include banquets and dinners, hayrides, skating parties, costume parties, and Christmas caroling. Another activity sponsored by the youth was an activity center for after home football games. 303 East Third Street Waverly, Ohio 45690 Phone: 947-5175 208 Advertising hum hum r?; Oim.«.w fniiMM«ft4 ; The Rise in First Class Postage Stamps On February 17 the Postal Rate 26 1885-1985 Commission increased the price of 24 postage, part of $2.2 billion rate in- 20 crease affecting most classes of mail.

For Africa, featuring 45 musical stars, brought in over $8 millions for the starving people in Ethiopia from their album We Are the World. This song spotlights such singers as Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, and the list goes on. It hit number one on the charts on April 4, not only for the hottest single, but also for sales and airplay. The single sold more than one million copies in less than three days. But this song was not only Charity song. An earlier song, Do They Know It's Christmas Time? by the British stars, Band-Aid, also earned millions of dollars for Ethiopia. Individual stars such as Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, and Prince hold special tours to raise money for charities. Suddenly raising and giving money to the less fortunate became the in thing to do. We are the world, We are the children, We are the one's to make a brighter day, So let's start giving.

This in turn helps members to better their lives. Like all programs 4-H has an emblem - a green four-leaf clover with a white H on each clover. In Ohio Chris the Clover was developed by the 4-H organization and has been adopted nationally to tell children about 4-H. A 4-H member has over 200 projects to choose from. These range from working with animals, sewing or cooking projects or crafts. Each new project a member takes enables them to learn about that project and what it would be like to do it for a living. After working with the project in the summer, the project is judged on how well the individual prepared and learned from the experience. The judging enables the youth to mature from winning or losing in the competition. The Pike County Extension agent is Mrs. Lucinda Miller. She helps to make certain everything has been completed and measures up to 4-H standards. In Pike County there are approximately 60 4-H clubs with 896 members. Each club has 10-20 members with one or more adult adviser - one per nine members. Smaller clubs allow the members to be helped more on an individual basis. 4-H gives the large number of youth in the county something to do during the summer and a way to gain knowledge about different projects without the normal classroom setting.

Paul Moore and Jerry O'Bannion Waverly High School Waverly, Ohio 45690 Dear Messrs. Moore and O'Bannion: I have never before heard of any high school group so brash or ambitious as to perform Hamlet publicly. I remember that in Oberlin College, Stan McLaughlin, the director of the Oberlin Dramatic Association, waited twenty-seven years for a student capable of the title role in that play. 1 have also seen Hamlet'' done on the stage of the Department of Drama at the Carnegie Mellon University, a school which trains professional actors, and have thought them hardly mature or talented enough for this difficult play. And 1 wondered last week how Waverly High School students could have come to the point of producing it. So I attended it, curious and half expecting to be bored and angry at the inadequacies and the butchering of lines. To my surprise, I was at times deeply moved. The major characters obviously knew what the play was about and thus could speak their lines meaningfully and at times with much dramatic effect. May I congratulate you and your cast on your aspirations, your understandings, and your production. For me, the evening contained many unexpected joys. Most respectfully and enthusiastically yours, Richard A. Wells A.10JUL Associate Professor Emeritus of English Carnegie Mellon University Passages Believing is the beginning of a dream coming true. You're nobody till somebody hugs you! Every night out should be followed by a day off Give me chocolate or give me death Whiners tire easily but not from work! Well, it ain't the strength you got, it's the willingness.” Don't ask me I just work here! Some people whine but have no solutions! Friends love us for ourselves.

Work hurridly began on the 181 unfinished pages of NOVEL '84. New staff members learned fast to crop pictures, draw triplicates, make paste-ups, write copy and captions and typeset. One hour a day was not enough time, so some returned at night to complete work. Finally, 13 weeks after school began, the last pages were mailed to the publisher. What a relief! Now our book could begin! Staff members presented ideas for themes and design. A secret ballot vote was taken to decide whose idea would win. Nobody lost as losing themes became subtitles for division pages. As deadlines rolled around, work again took place at night. But these nights were more than work. For Donna Brinson's 16th birthday her mother brought in pizza and cake. Fast food restaurants benefitted as hunger pangs struck. On June 20 the final pages of NOVEL '85 were completed. The staff had completed two books and had met all deadlines for the second.

English 12 and government are the only mandatory courses for seniors. An obscure beginning swiftly rolled into an obscure ending. Seniors learned that leaving two weeks early was indeed a privilege and that privilege was taken away. Another loss affecting students became the abandonment of open exams. The two were stolen by legislative action. The seniors heard the cry of the starving in Africa and Pike County as they raised 650 dollars to feed these needy. As the seniors worked for others, all of America discussed, cheered, or jeered President Reagan's new tax proposal. The working career of three respected teachers came to an end at the finish of the year. Mrs. Nelvia Hunt ended a career of teaching math. Mr. Raymond Burton, a man synonomous with science, ended his colorful career. The year bade goodbye to a man who commands respect everywhere he walks: Mr. Orval Arnett, teacher of health, P.E., and coach. These three teachers retired with 98 years of experience among them. The teaching career of another came to an end this year. Mr. Jerry O'bannion had become an intrical part of the senior's year. In an emotional program at the Piketon Methodist Church, Mike Diener and Mel Stahler said goodbye to Mr. O'Bannion, their teacher, advisor, and friend. The end is always sad. Yet all realized that a new life had begun. It had been a year of excitement.

Conclusion 255 Watching the endless scenery pass, hundreds of memories flood to the mind of a rider as the year of reflection flashes past on the final bus ride home of the year. After cutting with tin snips, freshman Shon Bobb beats on a tin can with a wooden mallet in Mr. Fred Bauman's Shop I class hoping to produce an old-fashioned scoop. Conclusion
