Experiencing Breaking away Wt was my first time on skis. I had I the best time. Kruse was great. JfcHe kept shooting pictures all day, said senior Tammy Correll. Most of us had never been on skis before, but we really had a good time. Mrs. Hart-Hoover decided that the pres- sures of the publications ' deadlines had tak- en their toll on the students and decided to take a break. It was really hard for me because this was during the time we were working on the contract. But, we had al- ready sent in our money, and 1 felt it was the first time from Deadlines. something we really needed to do as a group, said Hart-Hoover. I had a great time. I woke up the next morning and was sooo sore. 1 started out on the bunny slope, and by the afternoon we were all on the advanced, said sophomore Lisa Reyes. The best part was riding on the ski lifts, said Maria Ognenoff. I think this is something we should do every year. Giving support to those who need it, Jim Kruse, Tammy Correll, and Lisa Reyes hold each other up. Skiing really shows who you can depend on. Making it look easy, first-time skier Tammy Correll goes up the rope. Trips like these make all the hard work worth it. (P

Pepsessions add to social highlights Athletes appreciate recognition After being crowned 1986-87 Homecoming queen, Maria Ognenoff and her escort, senior Jim Kruse, pose for photograpliers. Seniors sliow tbeir spirit at the pep session that ended spirit week and got the players ready for the game. VI-C-T-O-R-Y! That ' s the Wayne bat- tlecry. The cheerleaders help to build up Wayne spirit at the pep sessions. We ' re really lucky that Dr. White has found a way to have pep sessions. The students really enjoy them, said senior Jim Kruse. During the fall, the volleyball team and cross-country teams offered Wayne a lot to get fired up about. The boys ' went to state and the girls ' also had a fine finish against Muncie Burris at the Semi-State held in Marion. We also had the annual Homecom- ing pep session. The athletes seem to really appreciate the rec- ognition, and the class competi- tions really get the crowd go- ing, said cheerleader Karen DeRose. School can sometimes be so restricting. It ' s nice that school can also offer fun times like these, said Mi- chelle Aldred. The band also takes part in the pep sessions with the never failing morale booster, our own school song, so let ' s keep up the spirit. FT. WAYNE WAYNE! HOMECOMING

Taking to the Slopes inter is a time when cleaning liouse, watchiing T.V., and drink- ing cocoa pass the long hours of those Saturday afternoons. But this winter many Wayne High School students will ex- perience the art of skiing for their first time, and many al- ready have. Brian Hansen, a junior, has been skiing for quite awhile and thought it would be fun to get some friends together and hit the slopes. Well that ' s just what they did. Sandy Tsiguloff was one of the eager in- experienced skiers, It was my first time and it was so embarrassing, I fell about three or four times. But by the end of the day I was actually on the big hill. That ' s how many people feel about skiing, it ' s hard, but by the end of the day you have got the hang of it. Although downhill skiing is most peo- ples ' first choice, and many agree that you have to have the right attitude for cross- country skiing, many students have been caught scooting along the Fox Island course. This winter has been one of the Modeling her ski bunny outfit, sophomore Erin Hoi- ston tries to look as if she belonged. Erin was a first- time skier at Swiss Valley and did quite well, hitting only one hay bail. The snow was sparse, but the water was great at Cannonsburg. The Pub staff skiers hope to hit the slopes again next winter. Wear more than one pair of socks . . . and never for- get your sun- biggest turnouts for skiing there. In order to do all of this skiing though, you must have the right equipment. According to the local dealers, skis, boots, poles, and bindings could cost from $285 to $800 or more depending on the quality. But most first time skiers rent for the first couple of times to see if they like it or not. Complete rental ski pack- ages run from $13.50 to $15 a day, $24 to $27.50 for a weekend and up to $60 for a week. But what if you ' re planning to buy? Fort Wayne skiers have four places to buy their equipment: Roots, Ski Pole, Water- meister Sports, and Herman ' s World of Sporting Goods. Now all you have to do is learn how to ski. It isn ' t difficult, but it does take time and concentration. Most resorts offer begin- ner lessons and there are slopes varying in difficulty. If you are interested in lessons you should check the resort you ski at most frequently. Lessons range from $5 to $10 an hour for a group and $15 to $30 for private lessons. Skiers are recommended to dress for the weather. What if you don ' t own a ski suit? Well Sandy Tsiguloff recommends long Johns with jeans over them, more than one pair of socks, a turtleneck, sweatshirt, gloves and never forget your sunglasses.

Hart-Hoover was the sponsor for both ski trips to Swiss Valley and Cannonsburg. SKIING
