There are seventeen classrooms, a library, music room, new office, weight room, larger foyer, detention room and a new gymnasium. All of this cost 3.5 million dollars and the state paid seventy percent of it. The starting of school brought mass confusion. After the first couple of days, things ran smoother and everyone started enjoying the new building. 5 CANDID SHOTS Catching people off guard is really you being yourself, what the yearbook is all about.

The one night when the girls could get their boyfriends to dress up. Everyone looked exceptionally nice. Then came the highlight of the evening; The crowning of the queen. The queen was Debbie Hannan; Senior at- tendant — Keri Wablay; Junior attendant — Jenny Chittick; Sophomore attendant — Tyranne O'Rilley; Freshmen attendant Wendy Nightlinger. So after pictures were taken and the queen was crowned and the last dance was danced, Homecoming '82 was just a memory. 9 HOMECOMING ’82 10 i Another Homecoming has come and gone. We owe our thanks to Student Council for sponsoring the dance. The preparation had taken some time to do. As usual the queen was elected by her fellow classmates. n COAL BUCKET 12 Although we lost the Coal bucket this year, spirits were high during Spirit week. Painting windows has become a tradition at W.H.S. This year the winners were Lisa Torbit, Hannelore Weir, Kandi McElroy, and Mary Maskel. During Spirit week we also had other activities like Parent Day. This was the day when parents could find out what a day in the life of a student is like by attending classes. Other days included Punk Rock Day, Preppy Day and Orange and Black Day. So Coalbucket was not a complete loss, we still have our spirit. 13 PUNKS 14 Spirit Week is always a big success at W.H.S. but Punk Day was met with the most enthusiasm from all the students. Students were able to dress like their favorite Punk rock star or their Punk fantasy. The faculty got into the swing of the day and dressed along with the students. Any stranger walking the halls would think that Adam Ant or Stray Cats had decided to do their video tape for Music TV at Westville. 15 Tyranne O'Riley. Cheryl Spickard, Jody Greer, and Tanya Dillon show the new punk fashions. Spirit week was held from November 1st through the 5th. It was to show spirit for the Coal Bucket game, which was held on November 6, 1982.' Spirit week was sponsored by the cheerleaders and it was a great success. The days were given names and they were: Monday — Hat and Shades Day; Tuesday — Sports Day; Wednesday — Punk Rock Day; Thursday — Preppy Day; and Friday — Orange and Black Day, which was bring a parent day too. Paula Edwards was awarded for having the most spirit. She accepted the honor wearing a Georgetown football jersey, and of course the player had head injuries and a broken leg. It was a great week to show spirit for the school. Maybe next year there will be even more participants and even zanier outfits! Spirit Week 18 Crystal Edwards, Kim Salter.

Word got around that the Sadie Hawkins Dance was to be held on Saturday, November 13, 1982. The gals had to get their nerves up and ask their favorite fellas to go. The pompette-sponsored dance turned out to be a success. The bow contest was one of the first events. The winnin' bows were smurf bows worn by Kim Bates and her date. Next came the big moment, the unveiling of the new Daisy Mae. The contest was entered by Jackie Barham, Tracy Coleman, Teresa Howard, Crystal Edwards, and Stacey Wright. The winner was announced and Crystal Edwards became the 1982 Daisy Mae, along with her date, Steve Styers who was UT Abner. The memories never end but the dance had to. Next year Sadie Hawkins will come again, and hopefully it will be as successful. Sadie Hawkins 20 The pompettes pose tor their family portrait.

The agent from the Department of Children's Services informs the Brices that they are too old, but she convinces them that they would make terrific foster parents to older children. The agency places children with the aid of a computer. Because of a computer foul up, the Brices end up with eight teenagers and a household full of confusion. Unscrambling the mayhelm, before the Brices lose th«ir minds becomes a problem for the director of the agency, especially since none of the kids want to leave the Brices.

It may even be said that he has found the root of this problem and encourages everyone to do his or her part to correct it. The action takes place in the Juvenile Court hearing room where Judge Sylvia Frazier is presiding. Gary Durant is under indictment for a brutal crime that has resulted in injuring one girl and in crippling another for life. The hearing is informal; lawyers are not permitted and all those present have the opportunity to speak their feelings. After hearing all the testimony. Judge Frazier is able to place the blame for Gary's criminal act exactly where it belongs.

One of the first of the events was a Christmas party. The special highlight of the year is the Art Club trip. This year the members went to St. Louis and saw the St. Louis Arch. The New Cathedral of Sf. Louis, and Laumeir Sculpture Park. The annual Art Festival was a great success, it gave the community the chance to see some of the students' artwork. Art Club also sponsored the Senior Art Award. Art Club raised money by selling Life Saver suckers, candy dishes, and by sponsoring the Community Club calendars, which had a schedule for all the athletic events. Three works of art were accepted and exhibited at the Regional Scholastic Art Exhibit at Robeson's in Champaign. They were: senior, Dora Martin, for her pen and ink drawing, Adventure in Line ; senior, Robin Bales, for her pen and ink drawing, Study of Line ; and freshman, Kenny Vandermeulen, for his charcoal drawing. Autumn Haize . Robin Bales received a gold key of recognition and Kenny Vandermeulen received a blue ribbon Mrs. Scarlett. Robin Bales, and Kenny Vandermeulen qualified to tour the U. of I. campus and visit the Art Department, because winners of the Regional and their teachers got to go.

It was because of the special occasion. Round Up Dance. The dance was sponsored by the Wrestlettes, and was branded a fantastic success. The band, Formula, provided great music for the hoe-down. The night seemed really special. Balloons fell romantically from the sky, while couples stared dreamily into each others eyes, and danced the night away.

PROM The night that everyone impatiently waited for finally came on May 14, 1983, Prom. Prom was a dance that almost wasn't. During the football season, juniors wouldn't work the concession stand, so it was almost taken away. The juniors finally got the spirit and took over. Money was raised by working the concession stands at football and basketball games; and by selling candy bars and M MS. The band, Pegasus, provided great music for the special event. The candidates for queen were Toni True, Angee Maloney, Julie Trapp, Melissa McCarty, and Julie Vilk. The special moment finally came and Julie Vilk was crowned Prom Queen 1983.

The team didn't win a game all season but that didn't stop them from playing aggressively. To watch the Tigers play, one would think they were in the running for the state championship. Even though the football team wasn't coming up with victories they had the support of many fans. This year the Tigers were coached by Greg Pohlman, instead of Mr. Watson. Mr Pohlman took over a team which was relatively young and inexperienced but he did a good job of getting a team together. The Tigers' progress was slow but steady. They may surprise a lot of people next year. 4} Sean Anderson gains some yardage Front I to r. Scott Winters. James Langley, Dave Whimpey, Bill Cotrell, Roy Tibbetts. Tim Ferpotto.

Actually, this was the first full season for the players, due to the teachers' strike during the 1981 season. Also, several of our players played varsity ball and missed gaining experience at the sophomore level. Despite these obstacles, the sophomore players learned a great deal about football and the dedication it requires to perform it well. The coaching staff strongly feels that there is an abundance of untapped athletic potential at this level. We would like to think that with a lot of hard work and dedication, this group will make themselves into a competitive varsity team. 45 The Lady Tigers completed their 1982-1983 season with a 12-15 record. This record was the best record that the Lady Tigers have gained in over 6 years. The highlight of this season was the Ladies' second place finish in the Vermilion County Tournament. The Tigers started the week with a 45-41 win over Rossville. The Catlin Wolverines were the Ladies' next opponent. The Tigers defeated the third seeded Wolverines in a dramatic 49-47 triple overtime game. The Tigers continued their exciting play with a 31-29 victory over second-seeded Armstrong. This game put the Tigers in the championship of the tournament against Oakwood. However, the Ladies' lost to the Comets 64-45. The second place trophy garnered by the Ladies was the first ever for Lady Tiger basketball. The rest of the season had its good and bad moments. The team finished 5-9 in the tough Wauseca Conference which put them in a tie for 5th place. Wins in the conference were against Schlarman (twice), Hoopeston. Watseka, and Clifton Central. The Lady Tigers suffered 3 heartbreaking losses to archrival Georgetown, including a 59-52 loss in the regional semifinals which ended their season.

The volleyball teams have improved a lot this year. Some of these improvements were due to Charla Quartier who was the coach of both teams. At first the team had a hard time adjusting to the new techniques Miss Quartier was teaching them, but they caught on fast. It wasn't long before they were tough competitiors. The JV team ended the season with a 10-8 record, while the varsity finished with 2-16. Next year promises to be even better because some of the JV players will move up to the varsity and many of the varsity players will be back. If the team continues to improve, they should do well. 49 Kim Denton goes up for a block. The successful renewal of cross country at W.H.S. can be attributed to the hard work of 14 super individuals. Each can take credit for being a team leader at some point during the season when the team spirit needed a boost. Their preseason goal was achieved the last week of the season at the County Meet. Both teams registered strong performances with the boys finishing 4th and the girls finishing 2nd. One individual, Becky Latoz, earned all county honors by finishing 3rd. The team's dedication and hard work during the season has helped set standards that future teams must meet and improve upon in order to become winners. W.H.S. can be proud of the initial success of these members of the 1982 cross country team. Top right. Front I. to r.: Chris McDowell. Vince Custaneda, Quoc Chung. Back. Norris Porter. Chris Latoz.

They had a 5-1 record in small meets and many individual accomplishments in larger competitions. The team as a whole finished sixth in the North Vermilion Invitational and fifth in County. The team was composed of nine individuals. All gave outstanding contributions, but three girls came up with big wins. Michelle Foyer placed 3rd in District's high jump. In the Wauseca Conference Meet, Lisa Hart placed third in the mile. Michelle Foyer and Kari Harris placed second and third respectively in the high jump. Go!

Strike! The girls softball team was hoping to make this as successful of a year as all the other WHS teams. Unfortunately it wasn't quite as successful in ratings; however, they did gain valuable experience from their game. Russell Draper, second year coach, worked the girls with hard practice, while trying to lift their spirits. The girls were determined to win and they didn't give up. When regionals came up Westville was eliminated by Danville. They finished the year with a 3-9 regular season record. Hopefully with this year's experience behind them, the girls will come back at full speed next year with a winning record. Softball 56 Front: David Whimpey. John Brazas. Tim Such. Roy Young.

The first accomplishment of the season was the winning of the Rossville Holiday Tournament. Norris Porter throws the ball inbounds to John Brazos They started out 1983 by stomping their opponents on their way to a second consecutive Vermilion County Tournament Championship. Two games before the tournament the Tigers started a winning streak which continued until the lost to Chrisman in the Championship game at the Regionals. The Tigers also won the Wauseca Conference title. Our teams in the past few years have been establishing an outstanding reputation for Westville in Class A basketball action. Next year's team will hopefully continue the winning tradition. 57 Roy Young shows determination Chuck Snook goes for a lay-up Congratulations!

That someone is the W.H.S. tiger. The tiger has livened up the sidelines during the boys' basketball season by starting a rally of cheers just when the team needed the support of the fans. He also made a special appearance at the Girls' Vermilion County Basketball Tournament to offer extra support.

No matter what their record at the end of the season, the Tigers should be praised for the determination and dedication they have showed. 1983 BASEBALL SCORES Westville 7 1 CatNn Westville 2 13 Convington Westville 12 1 Shiloh Westville 4 14 Fountain Central Westville 2 6 Armstrong Westville 3 2 Covington Westville 10 2 Shiloh Westville 9 8 St. Joe-Ogden Westville 4 0 Georgetown Westville 1 11 Schlarman Westville 5 8 Clifton-Central Westville 2 Scores as of May 27, 1983 3 CSfton-Central • Regionals Baseball 71 Ralph Sands and John Devore plan their moves as Chris Latoz looks on. The Chess season got off to a rather slow start with the exception of a tie with Danville. The players improved during the year which was highlighted by a 14th place in the state tournament. Standouts at state were Ralph Sands (also Vermillion County High School Champion) and Chris Latoz who each won four out of six games. John Devore won three of six games. The team lost a very close match to three time State Champions, Sherrord who went on to repeat again this year. The loss of Brad JeRue, who was the team captain, was a major set back to the team's goal of being in the top 10 in the state. Clockwise from left: Curt Grant, Dave Whimpey, Ron Mollett.

Not pictured: Bob Yow The golf team was hurt by a lack of experience. There was only one Senior on this year's squad. He was joined by one Junior, four Sophomores and one Freshman. The dual meet record was 1 win and 11 losses. The Schlarman Invitational and the I.H.S.A. Regional both saw 8th place finishes by the Tigers. The highlight of the season was Gary Delhaye's tie for 8th place as an individual at the Schlarman Invitational.

Cheerleaders do not always receive all the attention they deserve. Participating in competition, however, they are recognized for their skills and talents. This year's varisty squad did very well in competition, winning first place at the Vermilion County Tournament. This year's squads gave our teams the encouragement and spirit they needed to reach their successful heights. It's hard to say whether or not our teams would have been as successful without them. Either way we appreciate their fine talents and thank them for their many contribution. Vermilion County Tournament cheerleading champs 75 L. to R. Melody Anders. Becky Lotoz.

The halftime buzzer sounds and a group of girls dressed in white march out onto the floor. The music begins and in syncronization the girls start to move. They dance and perform for the audience in between halftimes of football and basketball games. These are the Westville High 1982-83 pompettes. The pompettes performed a number of routines, sporting many different types of music. Billy Squier's Everybody Wants You” and Rick Springfield's Love Is All Right Tonight” were among their selections. The squad consisted of twelve girls, six seniors, five juniors, and one sophomore. They tried out for their positions on the squad and really worked hard to be as successful as they were. Our thanks go out to the pompettes for all the contributions they made to make this a successful year at Westville High. The pompettes had tough competition at the pep assemblies 76 The pompettes brought life to the football games School Board Front L to R: Margaret Reuther. Jim Balsamello, Luther Hitzeroth.

Carrie Snively, Lori Torbit, Mark Brown, The 1983 yearbook had its share of problems again this year. With the help of Assistant Principal, Dennis Watson, the advisors, Mark Brown and Kathi Marriage, assembled a staff of 25 members. The sale of ads and fund-raising projects somewhat helped meet the cost of the yearbook, but the total cost was not met through these efforts. However, our principal, Barney Vilk, was always on hand to aid in our financial woes. The.advisors would like to thank all staff members who participated in the production of the 1983 yearbook, selling ads, candy, jewelry, and bunnies. Your help was greatly appreciated. A special thanks goes to Dana Williams, a junior at W.H.S., and our Josten's representative, Karen Martin-Quinkert. An extra-special thanks goes to Lori Torbit, a junior at W.H.S. whose work and determination was an inspiration to all of us. The Janus staff wishes the best of luck to the 1983 graduates and hopes this yearbook will provide them with many fond memories.

Seventeen years ago students felt a need for more information about medically-oriented careers than their science classes provided so Medical Careers Club was originated. In the past Medical Careers Club has participated in the Walk for Mankind, Heart Fund Drive and several other charitable activities. This year's club held a 5-mile hike-a-thon at Forest Glen to raise money for a trip to Indiana Beach. This year the members didn't get as involved as in previous years. Since the success of the club depends entirely upon the enthusiasm of the members there will; however, be an increase of inferest nexf year. Officers Front: Jerri Sollars.

A few members worked very hard to finance their expenses for a trip to Mexico. The rest of the club also participated in money making projects to be able to take an end of the year trip to Indiana Beach. The club had enough money to buy its members shirts and pins for their efforts. While some of the members got special awards for their outstanding accomplishments at the annual Spanish Test at the U of I.
